A. Choose the best answer (根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案) (12分)
On a freezing January morning, Myron opened the library in Iowa. She heard a cat cry and finally found a yellow kitten in a pile of books.
“His little feet were frozen,” Myron recalls. “We gave him a bath to warm him up and he purred the whole time so that we know he liked us very much.”
That was 1988 and it was a story for Dewey, the cat who has lived happily among the books ever since. “His story has a life of its own, we have people drive hundreds of miles out of their way just to see Dewey. We even had a Japanese public television crew come here to make a short film of him. ”Shortly after the kitten’s rescue, a photo of the library’s “new employee” appeared in local newspapers. Local people were invited to vote for the name of the kitten. “We have never had such a big crowd for a contest and there wasn’t even a prize,” Myron says with a laugh.
Dewey grew from a popular local “library employee” to a national star with his pictures on calendars. However, he is not the only cat who lives among books. Library cats greet people in about 125 libraries across America. Most live and “work” in comfortable, small town libraries where they don’t get lost in the books. Library cats used to make a living by catching rats, but library cats have more duties: to a make the library a pleasant place.
“Library cats just create a nice, warm atmosphere (气氛),” says Gary Roma, producer of Puss in Books, the film about library cats. “The cats attract children to the library and the elderly who maybe can’t have pets in their apartments,” Roma says. “Books, libraries, and cats just go together.”
69. The cat Dewey was found by Myron in the ______ of 1988.
A) spring B) summer C) autumn D) winter
70. The underlined word “purr” in the second paragraph means “____”.
A) feel angry B) feel happy C)feel hungry D) feel sleepy
71. A contest was held after the kitten’s rescue to ______ the cat.
A) win B) name C) film D) feed
72. Library cats can do many things including ______.
A) acting for a film B) catching rats
C) making people pleased D) All of the above
73. Puss in books was ______.
A) a book about cats B) a film about Dewey
C) a film about library cats D) a film about popular libraries
74. From the passage we can infer (推断) that ______.
A) Library cats only attract children and old people
B) Dewey is one of the cats who live among books.
C) Library cats are not as popular as they used to be
D) Every library in America has at least one cat
B. Choose the best words and complete the passage (选择最恰当的单词完成短文) (12分)
Doing experiments is one of the most interesting things about studying chemistry. In China, it’s often teachers who do the experiment in the front of the class with students ______. But in the US, students take action by themselves.
The first time I took a class in my school’s chemistry lab, I was surprised to find that students were wearing special glasses, plastic gloves, as if there had been a bio-chemical attack! ______ is always the most important for science lab classes in America.

What’s special is that for every lab class, she changes everyone’s partner to let us work with ______ classmates.
The class is often filled with laughs. Once we tried to burn chemicals. The chemicals produced many colors of flames(火焰), ______ bright orange and dark green. Many students in my class were amazed. “Wow! That’s so beautiful!” they screamed.
After finishing an experiment, we need to write a detailed report. It consists of the steps, our feelings and the final results. If there has been a mistake in the experiment, we need to analyze (分析) why it happened and ______ we should do to correct it. The reports are important. They make up around 25 percent of our term grade.

D. Read the passage and answer the following questions. (根据短文内容回答下列问题)(12分)
What will the home of the future look like? A team of architects in Hong Kong say that city homes will be tiny, as populations continue to grow and space becomes more expensive.
They have designed “spaceflats” that are only 30 square metres in size. These flats have small rooms: a living room, a bathroom and a bedroom, as well as a balcony (阳台), but everything is carefully planned to make good use of the limited space.
The living room is the main room of the flat. It can be used as an office, a kitchen even a second bedroom. There is a sofa that can be changed into a bed. The dining table can be changed into a computer desk. And, if not needed, both the sofa-bed and the table can be folded away (折叠收拢). There is a flat-screen TV, which can also serve as a computer monitor. You can’t see the cooker, the microwave and the small refrigerator because they are all hidden out of sight.
The other rooms are small but practical (实用的). The bathroom contains a toilet and a shower. The double bed in the bedroom can also be a sofa, if necessary. The balcony has enough space for two people to sit and you may see an amazing fountain on it . All the rooms have high ceiling to provide as much storage (存储) space as possible, while the flat has large windows to let in plenty of sunlight.
“Spaceflats” are now being tested in a building in Hong Kong. It’s wonderful, said one citizen. “The flat is so well designed that you feel that here is plenty of space.”
88.How big are the “spaceflats”?
89.What can the living room be used as?
90.How many things are hidden out of sight?

D. Listen to the passage and complete the following sentences (听短文，完成下列内容，每空格限填一词) (10分)
We all know that people lived in caves long ago. It is a traditional way of many European people. Living in these homes is more comfortable than you might think. Nowadays thousands of people in southern Spain and central Turkey still live in cave homes.
They are naturally cool in summer and warm in winter. There are windows and doors. Many cave homes have telephones, and some even have fax and Internet connections. In Spain, there is also a desktop computer in each room. Perhaps the most modern cave in the world can be found in the Loire valley of France. For hundreds of years, the cave areas have been used to store wine and grow mushrooms. In recent years, all the caves have been fitted with nice conveniences like running water and electricity. There’s even a restaurant that serves 5-course meals.
If you travel to some of these places, you can even find hotels that are in caves. In a village in Turkey, for example, staying in a cave house may cost you around US$200 for 3 days.

American country music is also known as country western music. It has a very long history. It comes from the folk songs of immigrants (移民) from Britain.
Country music uses simple music and words to express everyday feelings such as loneliness, love and sadness. That is to say, country music describes life. It talks about friends and enemies, trucks and roads, farms and crops. People in many parts of the world like country music, because everyone can understand what the music is about.
Country western music became popular first among cowboys (牛仔) from the American west countryside. Cowboys had to take care of cows day and night. When they were alone with the cows, they often sang beautiful and peaceful songs to calm the animals and to overcome their own fear. They were not well-educated so they sang about their daily life in very simple words. They played guitars, violins and other instruments. In the South of America, many people added instruments from their homes, like bottles and spoons. When cowboys visited their friends and families on holidays like Thanksgiving, they usually sang and played country western music.
In recent years, many musicians have made country western music a little different from the one in the past. These changes make the songs sound even better. Today singers as Carth Brooks, Reba McEntire, Emmylou Harris, Lyle Lovett, Eddie Rabbit, LeAnn Rimes, Randy Travis and a group called Alabama are singing and playing in different styles.

It is easy to learn paper-cutting but very difficult to make it perfect. We need a long-time practice to learn how to use the scissors and how to paint. Moreover, we need to learn some cutting skills.

In China , more and more middle school students are getting shorter sleeping time than before. Most students sleep less than nine hours every night, because they have much homework to do.
