When I was nine years old, I loved to go fishing with my dad. My father could catch many fish while I caught   16  . I usually got very sad and  17  asking him why. He always answered, "Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to  18   like a fish. " "But I am not a fish, "I said, "and I don't know what fish like. "
As I got a little older, I began to understand what my father really  19  . So I read some books on fish and I even joined a local  20   Club and started attending the monthly meeting to know more about it. I learned that fish are cold-blooded（冷血的） animals and water  21  is very important to them. That's why fish like shallow（浅的） water better than  22  water because shallow water is warmer.   23  , water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Also, fish don't have any eyelids（眼皮）and the sun hurts their eyes …The more I understand fish, the better I am at finding and  24  them.  
When I grow up, I go into the business world. It is not an easy job to sell things to others, but I do it well because I have the secret-that is to think more like  25  . I have learned this lesson from fishing.

As winter draws near, many of the cold-blooded animals hibernate till spring comes. And everybody knows they will be awake months later, crawling and walking around and looking for food.

But do you also know that some animals go to a summer sleep, which is called aestivation? Most animals are active during the summer, singing and dancing freely. The aestivation animals, however, will have a long sleep in a cool place to stay away from the dry and hot summer days.

In Southeast Africa there is a kind of porcupine (豪猪). Its body is covered with sharp stings. This creature usually eats earthworms as its main food. As the hot days come, the earthworms go deep under the mud to keep themselves alive. During this time the porcupine can't find any to live on, so it lies down to aestivate for months without eating. It comes out again when the cool autumn days arrive.

An unusual kind of tree frog in South Africa will climb up a tree during the summer. Here it hides itself in a cool place to have its summer sleep.

The most interesting thing about the aestivating animal is that while it sleeps, its body temperature drops just as the hibernating animal's body temperature drops in winter.

(  )28. Why do porcupines aestivate?

A. Because they are not active animals.

B. Because the weather is too hot and dry.

C. Because they have nothing to eat during the summer.

D. Because their body temperature is not high enough.

(  )29. When does the porcupine start and end its aestivation?

A. It starts in January and ends in March.

B. It starts in March and ends in April.

C. It starts in August and ends in October.

D. It starts in November and ends in February the next year.

(  )30. Which of the following is NOT true?

A. Hibernating animals are active in summer.

B.Porcupines in Southeast Africa live mainly on earthworms.

C.One kind of tree frogs in South Africa sleeps inside trees in summer.

D. The body temperature of an aestivation animal in summer is as low as that in winter.

(  )31.What does the underlined word“hibernate”mean in Chinese?

A.觅食     B.冬眠      C.蜗居      D.隐藏

(C)

A few weeks ago, I went into Chase's class for help. I e-mailed Chase's teacher one evening and said, “My son keeps telling me that the thing you're sending home is Maths—but I'm not sure whether I should believe him. Help, please.” She e-mailed right back and said, “No problem! I can help Chase after school anytime.” And I said, “No, not him. Me. Hegets it.Help me.”

And that's why I stayed with Chase's Maths teacher. We talked about teaching children. We agreed that subjects like Maths and reading are not the most important things that are learned in a classroom. We also talked about something else—kindness and bravery.

And then she told me this.

Every Friday afternoon Chase's teacher asks her students to take out a piece of paper and write down the names of four children with whom they'd like to sit the following week. She also asks the students to nominate(推荐)one student who they think is the most popular student that week. They needn't write down their names on the paper.

After the students go home, she takes out those pieces of paper, and studies them.

In fact, Chase's teacher is not looking for a new seating chart(表)or “popular students”. She is looking for lonely (孤独的) children. She's looking for the ones who are unwilling to talk with others. She is finding out whose gifts (天赋) are not noticed by their classmates. Then she gets to know who needs help.

After watching Columbine the wise woman knew that all violence (暴力) comes from loneliness. So she decided to start fighting violence early and often, and what she is doing is SAVING LIVES.

And she finds the lonely kids from those lists and tries to help them. It's Maths to her. All is love—even Maths.

(  )32. Why does Chase's teacher ask her students to write down some names on paper?

A. Because she wants to find the lonely children.

B. Because she is looking for a new seating chart.

C. Because she is looking for the popular student.

D. Because she wants to help her students learn Maths.

(  )33. Which of the following is the correct order?

a. Chase's teacher asks her students write down some names they want to sit with.

b. Chase's teacher learns from the TV violence comes from loneliness.

c. Chase's parent emails the teacher for help.

d. Chase's teacher studies the lists after school.

e. Chase's teacher finds who needs help.

A. c-a-d-e-b     B. b-a-c-e-d     C. b-a-d-e-c     D. a-b-d-c-e

(  )34. What do you know about the teacher?

A. She's a good mother.                   B. She's kind and full of love.

C. She's good at teaching Maths.            D. She's ready to help the parents.

(  )35. What's the best title for the passage?

A. Looking for Help        B. Learning Maths

C. Teaching Children       D. Looking for the Lonely

六、阅读填空 （本题共10小题; 每题1分，共10分）

The problem of debt (债务) among teenagers in Western countries is becoming worse and worse. Aren’t they following their parents’ advice, or aren’t the parents teaching their children about money?

Here is some advice that children as young as eight or nine can understand.

First of all, you should learn to save before you buy. When you receive money, you should save some of it, maybe 30%. After this, spend what you want.

Secondly, you’d better watch your money. Don’t trust other people with it. Don’t lend money and don’t try to buy friends. If friends want your money, they aren’t real friends.

Another piece of advice is to buy only what you can buy. If that iPad or iPhone costs more than  you have, then you don’t need it. Don’t borrow money for it, either. If you really want something, you can save for it. Also, after you have saved up enough money, you may understand you don’t really want it after all.

Finally, you should not compare (比较) what you have with what your friends have. Your friend may have an expensive iPad. However, your friend may borrow it or pay for it with borrowed money.

There is an old saying: “Give a person a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a person how to fish, and he will eat for the rest of his life.” This is also true when we teach our children about money. Don’t buy everything your children want. If you teach them good habits, they will always look after their money.
