The fields, hills and woodlands around my home were the perfect playground whose adventures were only limited by my imagination. I can remember once hiking to nearby lake and walking slowly around it. At the back of it I was amazed to find an old dirt road that I had never seen before. It was full of muddy tyre tracks and deep woods bordered it on both sides, but exploring it still seemed like a fine adventure.‎ I walked on and on for what seemed like hours. I was sure my guardian angel was whispering in my ears "turn around and head back home", but I was stubborn and walked on. There was still neither a car nor a house in sight I noticed that the sun was starting to go down and I grew scared I didn't want to end up trapped on this road, and I was worried that it would be dark before I could make my way back to the lake again.‎ I continued to walk on with something growing inside of me. My heart was pounding and my legs were aching. I was almost in tears when I saw something in the distance. It was a house that I recognized. I jumped up and down and laughed out loud. It was still over a mile away, but my legs felt like feathers and I hurried back to my house in no time. I walked in with a big smile on my face just in time for dinner. Then I ended my adventure with a good night's sleep.‎ I often thought of that experience recently. Actually, in our life, all roads, no matter how they twist and turn, can lead us home again. They can lead us to our homes in our hearts. May you always walk your path with love! May you always help your fellow travelers along the way! And may your roads always lead you home again!‎ ‎24.

He used to explore the old dirt road ‎25 What does the underlined word "something" in Paragraph 3 probably refer to?‎ A. Doubt B. Hope C. Fear.‎ D. Courage ‎26.

He was afraid of being scolded by his parents.‎ ‎27. What may be the best title for the passage?‎ A. Every Effort Is Worthwhile.‎ B. All Roads Lead Home.‎ C. Be Determined in Your Life.‎ D. Be Brave to Adventure.‎ C Have you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.‎ Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.‎ Do you know what a “territory” is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims（声称）as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this ‎ would be enough to frighten him away.‎ If so, you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting（筑巢）season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.‎ Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.‎ You can see that birds have a language of their own. Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.‎ ‎28. Some scientists believe that most of the time birds’ singing is actually ______.‎ A. an expression of happiness B. an expression of anger C. a way of greeting D. a way of warning ‎29. How does the writer explain birds’ singing?‎ A. By comparing birds with human beings.B. By telling a bird’s story.‎ C. By reporting experiment results.D. By describing birds’ daily life.‎ ‎30. What is a bird’s “territory”?‎ A. An area for which birds fight against each other.‎ B. A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.‎ C. An area which a bird considers to be its own.‎ D. A place where families of other species are not accepted.‎ ‎31. Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?‎ A. Because they want to find outsiders around.‎ B. Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.‎ C. Because they want to invite more friends.‎ D. Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.‎ D Frank Lloyd Wright is often called the father of American modern architecture．He designed buildings and homes across the United States for more than 70 years．He created most of his works ‎ from 1900 through the 1950s，but his open-living spaces and imaginative designs still appear very modern today．‎ ‎ Last week，the United States nominated(提名)10 of his buildings for the UN Educational，Scientific，and Cultural Organization—or UNESCO—the World Heritage List．The World Heritage List recognizes the most，important cultural and natural sites worldwide．‎ ‎ The 10 buildings，titled．“Key Works of Modern Architecture by Frank Lloyd Wright，”were built between 1906 and 1969．They include several of his personal homes and studios，churches，government buildings，private residences，and one very famous museum—New York City’s Guggenheim Museum． ‎ ‎ The Solomon R．Guggenheim Museum is one of the most visited sites in New York City．About one million people visit it every year．Frank Lloyd Wright worked on it from 1943 to 1959．It was designed to create a new type of space for new types of art．The museum remains an international symbol of modern architecture that represents Wright’s unique design．‎ ‎ Many of Mr．Wright’s modern buildings and homes in the U．S．Midwest have also become symbols of modern American architecture．Richard Longstreth is the president of the Frank Lloyd Wright Building Conservancy．He calls Mr．Wrisht“the father of modern architecture，fundamentally redefining the nature of form and space during the early 20th century that would have enduring impacts of modern architecture worldwide．”‎ The UNESCO World Heritage Committee will announce its decision in mid-2016．If Frank Lloyd Wright’s 10 buildings were chosen for the list，they would be the first World Heritage listings for modem U．S．architecture．The World Heritage List already includes 22 other American sites，including the Grand Canyon，Yellowstone National Park and the Statue of Liberty． ‎ ‎32.We can learn from the passage that_____．‎ A．Mr．Wright’s designs are out of style today B．Mr．Wright’s designs have been widely recognized C．Mr．Wright’s designs on modern buildings and homes are a failure D．Mr．Wright is the owner of ten buildings ‎33．Which of the following statements about Guggenheim Museum is true?‎ A． It is a masterpiece showing Mr．Wright’s unique design.‎ B．It is a good example of traditional design．‎ C．It is the most famous site in New York City.‎ D．It is the symbol of New York City． ‎ ‎34．In which section of the newspaper can you probably find this article?‎ A．News B．Science C．Biography D．Economy ‎35．What’s the best title of the passage? ‎ A．Frank Lloyd Wright—the Father of American Modern Architecture B．The World Heritage List—Cultural Collection Worldwide C．Guggenheim Museum—International Symbol of modern Architecture D．Frank Lloyd Wright’Buildings—On the way to World Heritage List 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分, 满分10 分） ‎ ‎ 根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Why should girls play sports?
