·Plant flowers, grass or trees.

·Turn off the lights and TV sets when you leave the room. This can save a lot of electricity.

Communication here means that people talk with each other about what they know, think and feel. We can learn a lot from good communication in our daily life. Part of the communication is unspoken, We sometimes show our feelings with our eyes, faces, bodies and attitudes. Some qualities can make good communication, including physical appearance, ability to speak, pleasant voice, how to hold the interest of others, and so on.
What should we do so that our communication will be effective(有效的)? Here are suggestions.
Firstly, you should be yourself. Successful people never change personal character from one situation to another. They’re the same whether they’re having a talk with their close friends or being interviewed for a job. They communicate with their whole being.
Secondly, whether you’re talking to one person or more, always remember to look at them. Don’t break eyes contact while talking. As you enter a room, move your eyes
comfortably, then look directly at those in the room and smile. This shows clearly that you are relaxed. Smiling is important. The best kind of smile and eye contact are gentle and comfortable.
You should also gather information about other people. If you attend a meeting or an interview, don’t immediately (立即) start throwing your ideas. Stop for a second. Know what’s going on there. What’s the mood of the others — are they down, up, happy? Do they want to learn from you, or do they show any interest? If you can feel what’s happening to others, you will be better able to reach them. So, listen before you talk.
The fourth suggestion is that you get your energy up. Before the meeting, collect your thoughts about it. You walk calmly through the doorway. Pay attention to the person you are meeting to find out what he is interested in. Properly collected energy comes across when you sincerely believe something. Always be confident. The audience may disagree with you, but they can’t question your belief.
Lastly, I would like to remind that you should not be too serious. That is to lighten up. Take a good hard look at yourself. Do you say “I” too often? Do you complain often? If you

Communication here means that people talk with each other about what they know, think and feel. We can learn a lot from good communication in our daily life. Part of the communication is unspoken, We sometimes show our feelings with our eyes, faces, bodies and attitudes. Some qualities can make good communication, including physical appearance, ability to speak, pleasant voice, how to hold the interest of others, and so on.
What should we do so that our communication will be effective(有效的)? Here are suggestions.
Firstly, you should be yourself. Successful people never change personal character from one situation to another. They’re the same whether they’re having a talk with their close friends or being interviewed for a job. They communicate with their whole being.
Secondly, whether you’re talking to one person or more, always remember to look at them. Don’t break eyes contact while talking. As you enter a room, move your eyes
comfortably, then look directly at those in the room and smile. This shows clearly that you are relaxed. Smiling is important. The best kind of smile and eye contact are gentle and comfortable.
You should also gather information about other people. If you attend a meeting or an interview, don’t immediately (立即) start throwing your ideas. Stop for a second. Know what’s going on there. What’s the mood of the others — are they down, up, happy? Do they want to learn from you, or do they show any interest? If you can feel what’s happening to others, you will be better able to reach them. So, listen before you talk.
The fourth suggestion is that you get your energy up. Before the meeting, collect your thoughts about it. You walk calmly through the doorway. Pay attention to the person you are meeting to find out what he is interested in. Properly collected energy comes across when you sincerely believe something. Always be confident. The audience may disagree with you, but they can’t question your belief.
Lastly, I would like to remind that you should not be too serious. That is to lighten up. Take a good hard look at yourself. Do you say “I” too often? Do you complain often? If you

anything like this for me before,” she said with a smile. “Well, I’m glad that we were the first,” I answered. “So, when will you eat your lunch,” I asked.
She just looked at me with her big, tired brown eyes and said, "OH, dear, I'm not going to eat this lunch. You see, I have a little girl of my own .I usually can’t buy her favorite food, but today she will be so happy! "

When the bell rings, every student takes out an iPad. The light from the screens makes their young faces pretty and lively.
That’s what happens every day at my school in the US. We use iPads in class.
I felt surprised and excited when I got an iPad on the first day I arrived at the school. But it was not free. I paid about $100 to use it for three years.
Every iPad at my school has a special learning system (系统) called Focus. Teachers put their teaching materials like textbooks and PPTs on it. When we have classes, we enter the system and download (下载) the materials with our iPads.
It makes the classes interesting and efficient. For example, several weeks ago, we learned about former South African president(总统) Nelson Mandela. Our teacher prepared a video in which Mandela made an encouraging speech. We could not only watch the video, but also read the written copy of his speech at the same time. Thanks to the video, I know more about the great man.
We also do our homework with iPads. If the homework is made up of multiple choices (选择题), we can know our grades right after we hand in our homework online. If it’s articles, teachers grade them online, without needing to look through so many papers.
However, there are still some bad points about learning with iPads. Some of my classmates play games or log on social networking websites in class.
I think the key to using iPads well is to have good self-control (自制力). Don’t you think so?
( )61.The writer paid about dollars to rent an ipad every year.
A.99 B.612 C.33 D.204
( )62.How is an ipad used in class?
A.We enter the system---Focus and download the material with it.
B.We only turn it on.
C.We record what the teacher said in class with it.
D.we take photos of what the teacher wrote on the blackboard.
( )63.The underlined word”efficient”means in Chinese.
A.有影响的 B.高效的 C.有活力的 D.无聊的
（ ）64.We can’t with ipads.
A.have classes B.do our homework
C.play games D.grade our essays
( )65.What’s the best title of the passage?
A.How to use an ipad B.Have classes with an ipad
C.How to have good self-control D.iPad is good for us
C
As I walked through Beijing's Houhai neighborhood, something green caught my eye. Sprouts(豆芽), mushrooms and flowers all came out on people's heads, standing straight up. I was so surprised at the craziness that a lot of people have plants come out on their heads.
The trend(潮流) was a great chance for business. Merchants(小贩) stood on street comers' selling all kinds of plastic(塑料的) mushrooms and sprouts. Three yuan for one sprout, five for a pair. Customers put what they bought onto their heads and walked off, and the sprouts danced happily on people's head. China Daily also reported that one Taobao merchant sold 28,850 hairpins(发夹) in a month.
The strange trend had been popular for 2 months in China. I wanted to find out what was behind the strange hairpins. I went to the 798 Art District to do some research, There were tons of tourists with sprouts on heads, and a shopkeeper told me that the film Monster Hunt was the cause of the popularity. The 2015 Chinese movie featured a cute little monster with a patch of moss(苔藓)on the top of his head.
CNN reported in a different way: The idea of the hairpins came from a Japanese cartoon character. One smiling face has a pair of green leaves growing on its head. The trend was catching great attention from all over the world. Major newspapers like The Wall Street Journal and The Telegraph showed their confusion over the strange trend and they said they really couldn't understand why Chinese people were so crazy.
Some people think perhaps the hairpins are a symbol of the cute and childlike "meng" culture. Others believe they are the symbol of the love for cartoons. I think maybe this is showing their strong wishes to protect the environment.
Who knows? In fact, nobody cares about it. After all, beauty is mysterious(种秘的). What is it on your head?
66.The hairpins mentioned in the passage are mostly made from .
A.sprouts B.mushrooms C.flowers D.plastic
.
A. Merchants B. tourism C. environment D. big stores
68.The underlined word “confusion” A.they are angry with the trend B.they think the trend is a pity
C.they think the trend is terrible D.they can’t explain the trend
.
A. the strange hairpin may show people's wishes to protect the environment
B. merchants sold all kinds of wooden sprouts and mushrooms
C. a lot of people care about what the trend is for
D. the strange hairpin may come from a Korean cartoon

Steve Jobs made technology fun. The cofounder of Apple died on October 5, 2011 at the age of 56. He had
fought for years against cancer. Mourners gathered outside his house in Palo Alto, California, and Apple stores around the world.
He and his friend Steve Wozniak started Apple Computer--now just called Apple--in 1976. They stayed at the
company until 1985. That year, Steve Wozniak returned to college and Steve Jobs left because of a conflict with the chief executive.
Mr Jobs then formed his own company, called NeXT Computer. He rejoined Apple in 1997 after it bought
NeXT. He helped remake Apple from a business that was in bad shape then to one of the most valuable companies in the world today.
Steve Wozniak, speaking on CNN, remembered his longtime friend as a "great visionary（有先见之明的）and leader" and a "marketing genius".
President Obama said in a statement: "By building one of the planet's most successful companies from his garage, he exemplified(例证) the spirit of American ingenuity(独创性). By making computers personal and putting the Internet in our pockets, he made the information revolution not only accessible, but intuitive(直观的) and fun. ”
David Carroll is a professor at Parsons School of Design in New York City. He says Steve Jobs not only revolutionized technology, he also revolutionized American business. "The fact that he was able to redesign American commerce top to bottom and across is really stunning. He probably will be considered an industrial giant on the scale of Thomas Edison and Henry Ford, so one of the great of all time," he said.
Steve Jobs stepped down as Apple's chief executive in August because of his health.
Apple's new chief, Tim Cook, will also have to deal with the new Kindle Fire tablet computer from Amazon. com. It costs less than half as much as an iPad but also does less.
A. Less than 10 years B. About 20 years C. Nearly 30 years D. Nearly 40 years
A. formed NeXT Computer with Steve Wozniak B. once saved Apple from terrible situation
C. worked in Apple from beginning until he died D. got on well with the chief executive
A. contribution in technology B. kindness to those supporting him
C. devotion to Apple Computer D. confidence in starting a company
34. Steve Jobs resigned in August 2011 because .
A. he was planning another company B. he was too old to manage the company
C. he needed more time to be with family D. he was poor in health
B
A newly-published study has shown that loneliness can spread from one person to another, like a disease. Researchers used information from the Framingham Heart Study, which began in 1948. The Framingham study gathers information about physical and mental health, personal behavior and diet. At first, the study involved about five thousand people in the American state of Massachusetts. Now, more than twelve thousand individuals are taking part.
Information from the Framingham study showed earlier that happiness can spread from person to person. So can behaviors like obesity (肥胖) and the ability to stop smoking. University of Chicago psychologist John Cacioppo led the recent study. He and other researchers attempted to show how often people felt lonely. They found that the feeling of loneliness spread through social groups.
Having a social connection with a lonely person increased the chances that another individual would feel lonely. In fact, a friend of a lonely person was 52% more likely to develop feelings of loneliness. A friend of that person was 25% more likely. The researchers say this shows that a person could indirectly be affected by someone's loneliness.
The effect was the strongest among friends. Neighbors were the second most affected group. The effect was weaker on husbands and wives, and brothers and sisters. The researchers also found that loneliness spread more easily among women than men.
The New York Times newspaper reports that, on average, people experience feelings of loneliness about 48 days a year. Yet the study found that having a friend who is lonely can add about 17 days a year of loneliness. It also found that every additional friend can decrease loneliness by about 5%, or two and a half fewer lonely days. Loneliness has been linked to health problems like depression and sleeping difficulties. The researchers believe that knowing the causes of loneliness could help in reducing it.
The researchers did not study how loneliness spreads. However, the study suggests that people can take steps to stop the spread of loneliness.
35.What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Why people feel lonely. B. Loneliness being infectious.
C. How loneliness spreads. D. Loneliness being harmful-
36. Which of the following statements about the Framingham study is NOT true?
A. It showed loneliness spread faster than happiness.
B. More and more individuals are involved in the study recently.
C. It has been more than 60 years since it was started.
D. The study was carried out by different researchers.
37. Who are the most affected by loneliness?
A. Brothers. B. Friends. C. Couples. D. Neighbors.
38. According to the passage, we can learn that
A. people should make as few friends as possible
B. loneliness always affects a person directly
C. your loneliness must come from your friend
D. loneliness may lead to some health problems
C
Paragraph 1
Scientists have learned a lot about the kinds of food people need. They say that there are several kinds of food that people should eat every day.

This unexpected boy was adopted by a not wealthy but loving family, with Paul Jobs and Clara Jobs being his parents. Though he was a foster* kid, Steve Jobs was well treated and educated. When he was a child, he was smart and always played jokes on others. But he was also the top student in the class. At that time, Steve Jobs lived in what we now call silicon valley*. A large number of engineers worked there who had strong influence on Steve Jobs. Maybe that's why he was interested in electronics*. Steve Jobs graduated from high school in 1972 and went to an expensive college of which he dropped out after six months' study because of economic crisis*. After a long time, he began to work on computers with Steve Wozniak, one of his best friends.

Only 3 hours after the accident, quite a lot of local people tried to donate blood at the local blood center in order to help those injured. Lives were saved because of their donation. However, compared to these warm-hearted people, some people are afraid of donating blood because they think this may bring them illness. Are there any risks when you donate your blood? The answer is: No! Advantages When you go to donate blood, first you need to fill in a chart* about your personal information like: name, age, telephone number etc. Then your pulse* will be taken and your blood pressure checked. If anything is found, you will not be allowed to give blood. One of the advantages of giving blood is that if anything is found to be wrong with it after it has been tested, you will be quickly told. This can let you know that you have a disease or other condition that you did not realize. Safety The most often asked question about the risks of donating blood is whether one can be infected* by the material used. All materials used for blood donation, such as needles*, bags are new, clean and safe. They are used only for your donation and then they are burnt up. This stops you from being infected. The only uncomfortable thing you will feel is when the needle is put into your arm. Time The whole donation from start to finish takes less than an hour, with the actual donating lasting from 10 to 15 minutes. The minerals* in your blood are replaced in 6 to 8 weeks. So you are allowed to donate blood every 56 days, making it possible to donate up to six times a year. Attentions After you are finished donating blood, you will be given a number to call if用心 爱心 专心 5
