An eight-year-old child heard her parents talking about her little brother. All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money. Only a very expensive operation could save him now and there was no one to lend them the money.
When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother, “Only a miracle(奇迹) can save him now,” the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her money from its hiding place and counted it carefully.
She hurried to a drugstore (药店) with the money in her hand.“And what do you want?” asked the salesman. “It’s for my little brother,” the girl answered. “He’s really, really sick and I want to buy a miracle.” “Pardon?” said the salesman.
“My brother Andrew has something bad growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?” “We don’t sell a miracle here, child. I’m sorry,” the salesman said with a smile.
“Listen, if it isn’t enough, I can try and get some more. Just tell me how much it costs.” A well-dressed man heard it and asked, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?”
“I don’t know,” she answered with her eyes full of tears. “He’s really sick and mum says he needs an operation . But my daddy can’t pay for it, so I have brought all my money.”
“How much do you have?” asked the man. “$ 1.11, but I can try and get some more,” she answered.“Well, what luck,” smiled the man. “$ 1.11, the price of a miracle for little brothers.” He took up the girl’s hand and said, “Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let’s see if I have the kind of miracle you need.”That well-dressed man was Dr

What are you going to do if you are in a burning house? How will you escape? Do you know how to save yourself? Please read the following passage.
Escaping a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save you life. It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family, such as stairways and fire escapes, but not lifts.
From the lower floors of the buildings, escaping through windows is possible, learn the best way of leaving by windows with the least chance of serious injury.
The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An average person, hanging by the finger-tips will have a drop of about six feet to the ground. It is about the height of an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building.
Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed. Or smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may leaked(渗) into the room.
On a second or third floor, the best windows for escape are those that open onto a roof. From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Dropping onto cement(水泥) might end in injury. Bushes and grass can help to break a fall. 11. It is important to _______.
A. put out the fire in the burning house B. know the ways to escape the fire C. jump off a burning house D. keep the door closed 12. It is possible to escape through the windows _______.
A. if there are some bushes on the ground B. if you are strong enough C. if you live on a lower floor D. If you have a long rope 13. Which of the following escaping way is NOT right? _______.
A. You can escape though stairways. B. You can choose fire escapes. C. Escape from the windows that open onto a roof. D. Use a lift to come down at once. 14. Open the window so that _______ if the building is on fire.
A. you can get fresh air B. you can call for help C. you can easily jump off D. you can be seen first

Do you know how to play a game called “Musical Chairs”? It is easy to play and most people enjoy it. All you need are some chairs, some people and some way of making music. You may use a piano or any other musical instrument, if someone can play it. You may use a tape recorder. You can even use a radio.
Put the chairs in a row. The chairs may be put in twos, back to back. A better way is to have the chairs in one row with each chair facing in the opposite direction to the chair next to it.The game is easy. When the music starts, the players walk round the chairs. Everyone goes in the same direction, of course, they should walk in time to the music. If the music is fast they should walk quickly. If the music is slow, they should walk slowly.
The person playing music cannot see the people in the game. When the music stops, the
players try to sit on the chairs. If a person cannot find a chair to sit on, he drops out. Then, before the music starts again, one chair must be taken away. When the music stops again, one more player will be out.
At last, there will be two players and one chair. The one who sits on the chair when the music stops is the winner.
16. If ten people are playing musical chairs, you must begin with _______.

II. 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，掌握其大意，然后从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出最佳选项。
6. 选 D。根据第1段中的All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money可知答案。
7. 选 C。由于这个小女孩的家很穷，而她的兄弟又病得那样重，所以她的父亲说Only a miracle can save him now，小女孩听了之后便翻出她所有的“积蓄”去药店购买miracle，由此可见，小女孩可能认为miracle是一种什么很神奇的药。注：miracle的实际意思是“奇迹”，Only a miracle can save him now的意思是“只有出现奇迹才可能救得了他” 8. 选 D。The urchin 要Paul把车停在他家门前后，立即扶着他残疾的弟弟出来，让他看看Paul的车，然后告诉弟弟他想为他做的事，所以他只是想告诉他弟弟他的愿望。
9. 选 C。The urchin在坐过Paul的车后没有忘记弟弟，并且承诺也要给弟弟买一辆车，可见他对弟弟有着一份深深的爱。答案选C，而A、B、D三项与文章不符。
10. 选 C。通读全文，我们不得不为The urchin 的行为所感动，他是一个好哥哥。文章就是讲述了他这样的一位好哥哥，C选项最合适。
11. 选B。从句子It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family,…可知，当房子着火后，最重要的是你要知道the ways to escape the fire(逃生方式)，故答案选B。
12. 选C。在短文的第2段说到…from the lower floors of building escaping through windows is possible。故选C。
13. 选D。在短文中特别强调在大火发生时，人们可以从 stairways 和 fire escapes逃生, but not lifts(但不能从电梯)，因为那是相当危险的。 14. 选A。在短文的第5段提到了可…keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air…可知。
15. 选B。通读全文后，短文的大意很明显，在着火的大楼中自救的方法应是短文的主题，故选B。
16. 选A。因为在第4段有这样一句If a person cannot find a chair to sit on, he drops out.那么肯定是椅子比人数少1，这样才会有人没得坐，故选A。
17. 选D。在第1段中提到了A、B、C三种可以播放音乐的器具，而D项没有，因为一般来说电话是不能播放音乐的，所以选D。
18. 选D。第2段的Put the chairs in a row就是“把椅子排成一排”这意。选D。 19. 选C。由第3段中的句子When the music starts, the players walk round the chairs.可知答案为C。
20. 选B。本题可用排除法，由第1段第2句It is easy to play 可知道A项正确；由最后一句The one who sits on the chair when the music stops is the winner.可知C项是正确的；由第4段的句子The person playing music cannot see the people in the game可知D项也是正确的。故答案选B
Ⅲ. 完形填空（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
本文讲述了电脑在人类工作与生活等方面起着越来越大的作用，并告诉人们不必担心不断发展的电脑会威胁人类的安全，因为它永远处于人类的操纵之中。 答案简析 21．B。这里需要一个表语从句的引导词，并在从句中作say的宾语，代替上文的内容。 what从意思和语法上都合乎文意，为正确选项。
\\\\
22．B。替代前文的people应用they。
23．C。科学家们一直在制造越来越好的电脑，故选择making。
24．C。do a lot of jobs意思为“干许多事情”。其余三个动词皆不合文意。
25．A。词组every day意思为“每天”；some day指将来的“某一天”；形容词everyday意思为“日常的”，合乎文意，为正确选项。
26．A。这里应选择一个副词，表示电脑应用的程度。widely意思是“广泛地”，为正确选项。 27．D。下文中的field是可数名词单数形式，意思为“领域”，而either指两者中的任意一个，不合文意，故选择every。
28．C。make作使役动词时，后面应接不定式的复合结构，且不定式省去to，即make sb. do sth.，故选择make。
29．C。draw意思为“画图”，合乎文意。
30．A。the other day指过去的某一天；one day既可指过去的某一天，也可指将来的某一天。这里讲的是将来的设想，故选one day。
31．A。这是一个时间状语从句。while引导的从句中的动词必须是延续性动词；when引导的从句中，动词既可以是延续性动词，也可以是瞬间动词，故when为正确选项。 32．D。固定结构make use of意思为“利用”。
33．C。in the future意思为“将来”，为正确选项。而in future意思为“今后”，不合文意。 34．C。根据上下文，电脑是不可能取代人类的，而人类应永远是电脑的操纵者，故选always。 35．A。固定结构with the help of意思为“在……的帮助下”。 IV.语法填空 (共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分)

Dear Rose, I am sorry to hear that you have failed in the English contest. And I am also upset to hear that you are so depressed that you haven’t talked to anyone for two days. I can understand what you are feeling now. It is rather disappointing to fail in an important contest just by one point. But one failure doesn’t mean that you are not excellent. There are more contests to come in the future. He who laughs last laughs longest. It is time for you to turn sadness into strength. You can make use of this chance to improve your English. Look back, and you can learn a lot from your mistakes; look forward, and you will find a bright tomorrow before you. I will be glad to help you and let’s study together!
Yours sincerely
