When I was little, one of my favorite holiday traditions was making a wish list for Santa Claus. Every year, my father helped me 36 all that I wanted. Often, I put food on the list: chocolates, candies... One year, I even asked for my favorite 37 !

As I grew older, I no longer wrote to Santa Claus, but I never stopped making a list of the things that I most liked or wanted.

One year, I went to China to work in a school. In China, most people don’t celebrate Christmas. 38 , they celebrate Chinese New Year. In my classes, I asked my students to make lists for Santa Claus. But they 39 me. “We get lucky money at Chinese New Year,” one girl told me. “That’s better than gifts from Santa Claus!” I nodded. Maybe she was 40 ！

On Christmas Eve, my friends and I went walking in the city. Though Christmas isn’t a holiday in China, many people were out in the streets and having fun. They 41 Santa hats, ate candies and said “Merry Christmas” to us in English. They knew we were 42 .

After a few hours, my friends and I were 43 and a bit cold. “One Christmas when I was small, I wished for soup from Santa Claus,” I told my friends. They laughed.

We went into a restaurant and sat at a table. Suddenly my friends cried out.“Look, Beth, your 44 is coming true!”

I turned around.“Santa Claus”stood 45 me. Well, it was the waiter, but he was dressed in a red-and-white Santa Claus suit!

“Merry Christmas！What can I get you?” he asked.

“Soup!”we said at the same time.

VIII. 阅读理解 (共 10 小题; 每小题 2 分, 满分 20 分)

阅读 A、B、C 三篇材料，然后从各小题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。

There are some stereotypes about students in the US—that they have little homework, that their teachers are too nice, that they have no rules to follow, that they are bad at math, that they don’t work hard like students in China. I would like to break these stereotypes.

Let’s take a look at the lives of American students. They get up at six in the morning for school. Many students take classes that are higher than their current (目前的) grade level.

There are lots of rules in their schools. Even nicknames (绰号) can be against the rules sometimes.

When school is over, there isn’t much homework. But there is more to do than that. Students have their choice of after-school activities, such as drama (戏剧)，swimming, softball(垒球)，golf, art, speech and debate (辩论) and many more. Students take these activities seriously (认真地). They don’t do them just once a week, as many Chinese students do, but for hours a day, every day of the week.

Students in the US might have more free time than those in China, but they are hard workers as well. Getting up early, skipping ( 跳过 ) grades, going to different activities...students, whether in China or the United States, should not be underestimated (低估).

46. Which word has the same meaning as “stereotype” in Paragraph 1?

A. kind

B. dislike

C. surprise

D. misunderstanding

47. What does the writer think of Chinese and US students?

A. US students have much more homework to do.

B. Chinese students get up earlier than US students.

C. US students do after-school activities more often.

D. Chinese students have more rules in their schools.

48. Why did the writer decide to write this story?

A. To change how people think about US students.

B. To encourage Chinese students to work as hard as US students.

C. To learn more about the rules in US schools.

D. To show how hard she works in the US.

Discussion: As a junior high school student, do you need your parents or teachers to be your life mentor (导师)?

Student A: As teenagers, we always have trouble in our lives.

Our parents and teachers wish us to solve (解决) problems by ourselves. But for many reasons (原因), we can’t easily solve them. So it becomes necessary (必需的) for us to have a mentor when we need help.

Student B: I once had a good mentor, so I agree with this idea.

Mentors are not like teachers. They can give students very useful advice and help. Because they have lots of experience.

What’s more, students won’t feel too nervous because they can talk with their mentors freely.

Student Student C: It’s embarrassing for students to talk about their own problems. In fact, not everyone can do this. There might also be a generation gap (代沟) between students and their mentors.

Student D:

Maybe students can get useful advice from experienced mentors. But I think, the more experience you get

from others, the less you will learn on your own. We should learn from our own experience. I like to have a life journey of my own with my own stories better.

49. For student A, having a life mentor is _______.

A. necessary

B. useless

C. nervous

D. exciting

50. Who does NOT like to have a mentor?

A. Students A& B

B. Students B&C

C. Students C&D

D. Students A& D

51. Student D thinks that a mentor _______.

A.wouldn’t truly understand him

B. might make him learn less on his own

C. would be very helpful to him

D. might be embarrassed to listen to him

How much do you know about your neighbourhood? Can you remember your neighbours’ faces? Teenagers from Live Oak, California, US, would say yes. They took photos of their neighbours. Then they put the pictures on city walls.

The kids took part in an International photography activity. It’s called the Inside Out Project. It asks people around the world to take black and white photos of their neighbours. In this way, people can find and share something about the places where they live. People can upload (上传) pictures to the project’s website. Then the project makes large photos. They send these photos back to people to show in their communities (社区).

In Live Oak, you can see big pictures on the walls of a supermarket. Nicholas’ work almost covered one wall. He took a photo of an old man. “We call him ‘The Superman’,” said Nicholas’ friend, “Nicholas took that picture right outside the super-market down the street called ‘Super’. It’s been really great. We get to learn a lot about our community, and we meet people we never met before.”

Greg Stein is headmaster of Shoreline Middle School. He also joined in the activity. He

said he wanted to start this kind of program at his school.

“Live Oak needs some beautification (美化）,”Stein said. This would really bring a lot of life to the neighbourhood.

52. Teenagers from Live Oak, California, US put pictures _______.

A. in the museum B. in the school C. on city walls D. on the table

53. Why does Nicholas call the old man “The Superman”?

A. Because the picture of the old man covered nearly one wall.

B. Because the old man was really a great man.

C. Because his friend thought the old man was like a superman.

D. Because he took the picture outside the super-market called “Super”.

54. Greg Stein will _______.

A. take part in the activity

B. start this kind of program at this school

C. bring a lot of green trees to the school

D. not allow the students to join in the activity

55. What’s the best title for the passage?

Ⅸ. 任务型阅读（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）

阅读下面短文，按要求完成 56—60 题。

When you hold a birthday party, do you often decorate (装饰) it? If you do, how do you decorate it? Have you ever tried decorating your party with balloons?

Balloons are so pretty though balloon decoration takes too much time! If you want to make balloon decoration yourself, here is some advice.

First, the color of balloons has to fit into the theme (主题). It’s fun to have at least two colors of balloons but three colors are even more beautiful. As for what color to choose, you could ask others what they think.

Then, fill them up the day before the party. You could buy a balloon filler or invite the neighbourhood kids (that are invited to the party) over to fill up the balloons. Then hang them up the afternoon or night before the party.

Finally, find a proper (恰当的) place to hang the balloons. Personally I believe that one of the best places to hang balloons is right at the entrance of the party. That way the guests can see the balloons right at the beginning. And it helps them get excited. Another great place to put balloons is behind the cake table. It really adds value (价值) to the cake.

I hope these tips can help you. Happy balloon decorating!
