But the tomatoes are being thrown, not eaten. The festival takes place during the last Wednesday in August. Trucks carry tomatoes into the square. People rush to the tomatoes and throw them into the crowd. Rolling cheese---England This festival is celebrated on the last Monday in May. It takes place on Cooper’s Hill. A large wheel of cheese (奶酪) is roiled down Cooper’s Hill. The festival is actually a race where people run down the hill after the rolling cheese. The first person to cross the finish line at the bottom of the hill wins the cheese. Burning man---The United States The Burning Man Festival lasts a week, it is from the Monday before Labor Day to Labor Day (which falls on the first Monday in September in America). The festival takes place in the Black Rock Desert. The best part of the festival is the burning of a large sculpture of a man. Pouring water---Thailand The Songkran Festival is the celebration of the New Year in Thailand. Instead of a single(单一的) day, Thailand celebrates the New Year from April 13th to April 15th. Thai people run after each other, pouring water. Songkran is one of the most important reasons why foreigners travel to the beautiful land. ( )31. How many festivals are mentioned in the passage? A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four. ( )32. Where will you probably go to enjoy one of the festivals above in May? A. Spain. B. England. C. The United States. D. Thailand. ( )33. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. The tomatoes are thrown into the crowd to eat. B. Not all the festivals fall on the single day. C. Burning a large real man is the best part of the festival. D. Songkran is the only reason for attracting lots of tourists. B Expressions cover all parts of our life. They may be around your ears every day. You may know a lot of Chinese expressions that describe how you feel. Here are some English ones for your enjoyment. Have Your Heart in Your Mouth This expression means that you’re really afraid or anxious about something. When your heart starts beating so much that you can feel a thumping(怦怦跳) in your throat, it may feel like you “have your heart in your mouth”. Have Butterflies in the Stomach How did butterflies get in your stomach? Well, those really aren’t butterflies in there. It is a way of describing those nervous feelings you might get before a test or a very important decision. These stomach flutters(跳动) are normal and happen to many people. Some people believe having a few butterflies might even help you do better. Sick as a Dog If you’ve ever been very sick, you may have used this expression. Because dogs eat just about anything they find, they often get sick. So it’s all right to describe someone who’s not feeling well as being “sick as a dog”. Under the Weather When it’s rainy all day outside, how would you feel? This expression comes from the idea that bad weather might hurt a person’s health and mood. ( )34. Someone believes ________ if you “ have butterflies in the stomach ” before a test. A. you’re sure to fail B. you will forget everything C. you might do better D. you are sure to do better ( )35. When somebody says “ under the weather ”, he must feel __________. A. sad B. happy C. calm D. afraid ( )36. All expressions discussed in the passage are about _________. A. health B. habits C. feelings D. weather C The first time I ever really noticed a disabled person, I was studying in the third grade. I saw some disabled people before, but I never really knew or cared about what those persons go through(经历). When a new student arrived in my third grade class, I thought it would just be a common student, but this student was different. His name was Derek and he had autism(孤独症). He sometimes had random outbursts(随意发作) during class and we would stand there, doing nothing because we didn’t know why he was doing that. When he sat down at desk, we would try to get away from him. After class, we would play jokes on each other, imitating(模仿) Derek, and laughing about it. Then one day, Derek’s mom came to our class and talked with us. She told us that Derek wasn’t just having random outbursts---he was trying to communicate. Then she chose a volunteer and filled that person’s mouth with soft sweets. When we found the volunteer had great trouble in trying to speak, the mother explained that was what Derek was going through every day. We all understood her meaning. After this talk, no one tried to make fun of Derek or run away from him. We accepted his outbursts in class and he became one of our friends. Having a class with Derek has taught me to have an open mind to those who are different from us. My experience in having an autistic classmate has provided me with a good lesson. Now whenever I meet a family with a child who’s behaving differently, I always remember what I have learned in my third grade class and go up to him or her. ( )37. What did the writer think of the boy before the mother’s talk? A. Friendly. B. Humorous. C. Generous. D. Strange. ( )38. Which order is RIGHT according to the passage? 1. We got away from him. 2. We got on well with Derek. 3. Derek arrived in my class. 4. Derek’s mom talked to us. A.3 1 2 4 B. 3 1 4 2 C. 1 3 2 4 D. 1 4 3 2 ( )39. According to Derek’s mother, Derek _______________. A. was too shy to be with others B. had trouble in expressing himself C. was good at communicating with others D. didn’t like the way others treated him ( )40. Which is the best title for the passage? A. Living with an open mind B. Believing in yourself C. Behaving in different ways D. Making friends with the disabled 四、词汇运用。(共20小题；每小题0.5分，满分10分) A) 根据句意及所给中文、首字母提示或英文解释，写出句中所缺单词，每空限填一词。 41. Our English teacher is patient enough to repeat ____________ (语法) rules for us? 42.

But sometimes looking for happiness can be as hard as looking for lost treasure. Just when you think you nearly reach it, something unexpected(意想不到的) happens. This may puzzle(使困惑) you a lot. Here are some tips for helping you find happiness. l Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. If you depend on one thing or one person to make you happy, it may be impossible.
