I returned to my kitchen 4       ,but he lingered ，silent,a thoughtful look on his face. "Mom ," he 5      ,"is there really a tooth fairy,or do you put this money in my tooth pillow and take away my tooth?"

  6       I knew I would have to answer such questions,but in spite of seven years of preparation,I hadn't really thought through a 7       reply. I stalled (拖延) for time by asking, "What do you think,Simon?"

  "What would you like to think?" I 10,still uncertain about whether or not I was about to 11        his heart.

  "It doesn't really matter," he said with 12       "I like it either way. If there is a tooth fairy,that's pretty exciting,and if it's you,that's pretty nice,too."

I then cautioned him not to say 15        to his younger brother,explaining , " Each child is entitled to the magic 16        he or she is ready to ask the question that you did today. Do you understand that?"

  "Yes ," he said,17       He took great pride in his older brother 18       ,and I knew he would never spoil anything 19       . I considered the matter closed,but still he lingered in the kitchen.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源： 題型：

 In white shirt,blue pants,black cloth shoes and two pigtails,Jingqiu gives off an air of great "pure beauty" in Zhang Yimou's new movie Under the Hawthorn Tree.

  The film tells the story of the sad romance of Jingqiu and a handsome young man named Laosan. Set at the end of the "cultural revolution" (1966-1976) ，the pair managed to fall in love although they came from different political environments.

  Before it was released,moviegoers speculated on just what this "pure beauty" could be. Director Zhang complained of how long it had taken him to find the right girl for the part of Jingqiu―a character so innocent that she believed simply lying on the same bed with a man would make her pregnant.

  It was 18-year-old Zhou Dongyu who stood out from the crowd. According to Zhang,Zhou had "eyes that are clear like a fountain on a mountainside". Born of an ordinary worker's family,the Shijiazhuang girl was in her final year of high school and working hard for a place in an art college.

  While some teenagers consider such " pure beauty" illusory,others believe that it speaks of something soulful.

  Purity is all about the innocence that shines through from within,thinks 16-year-old Tan Mengxi of Nanjing.

  "Being pure can be simple,not having complicated thoughts and being inexperienced. However,it doesn't mean an ignorant or naive person. So,a person is pure in his or her nature if he or she is always enthusiastic and able to deal with difficult matters independently. This purity doesn't pass with time," she said. 

(   ) 5. What image does Jingqiu give to audiences in the movie Under the Hawthorn Tree"!

   A. A simple girl. B. A pure girl.

   C. A romantic girl. D. A silent girl.

(   ) 6. What kind of girls looks pure according to the passage?

   A. A girl in white shirt,blue pants,black cloth shoes and two pigtails.

   B. A girl has eyes that are clear like a fountain on a mountainside.

   C. A girl who was born into an ordinary worker's family.

   D. A girl wears accessories and makeup.

(   ) 7. What's the opinion of Tan Mengxi about purity?

   A. It is of whether someone is ignorant or naive.

   B. Being pure can be simple,not having complicated thoughts and being inexperi?enced.

   C. It is of whether someone is always enthusiastic.

   D. Purity is a matter of internal quality and doesn't pass with time.

(   ) 8. Which do you think is the best title for the passage?

   A. What Makes a Pure Girl?

   B. A Debate on the Movie Under the Hawthorn Tree

   C. Opinions on the Character Jingqiu

   D. It's Hard to Find the Character Jingqiu

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源： 題型：

   There's more misery in people's lives than a decade ago. So says a new study on life's negatives from the University of Chicago's National Opinion Research Center,which conducts social science research for government agencies,educational institutions,nonprofit organizations and private corporations.

  The researchers surveyed 1,340 people about negative life events and found that the 2004 respondents had more troubles than those who were surveyed in 1991.

  "The expectation would have been that problems would have been down," says Tom Smith,the study's author. He says good economic years during the 90s would have brought an expectation of fewer problems,not more.

  Overall,the percentage that reported at least one significant negative life event increased from 88% to 92% . Most of the problems were related to increased incidents of illness and the inability to afford medical care,unemployment,and troubled romantic relationships.

  On a more positive note,fewer of those surveyed reported having trouble with crime or the law.

  Some of the problems outlined in the study were more complicated than just a single bad event. For instance,the inability to afford health care rose from 7% in 1991 to 11% in 2004. Those who said they lacked health insurance increased from 12% to 18% . On the romantic front,the percentage that reported breaking up with a steady partner doubled from 4% to 8% .

  But people shouldn't despair even if there is trouble around them. Bad experiences don't necessarily make people unhappy,says Jonathan Haidt,an associate professor of psychology at the University of Virginia and author of the new book The Happiness Hypothesis.

  He advises a threepoint checkup on the state of personal relationships,the work environment and control over daily life,because improving those areas will boost happiness.

(   ) 5. Which of the following verbs can be used instead of "boost" in the last paragraph?

   A. Increase. B. Reduce. C. Make. D. Find.

(   ) 6. It can be inferred from the passage that         .

   A. the economy has nothing to do with people's happiness

   B. people's problems were probably not only one single bad event

   C. most of the people's personal problems are related to the money

   D. people have a lot of trouble with crime or law

(   ) 7. Which of the following statements may NOT be found in the book The Happiness Hypothesis?

   A. When you come across the trouble,do not lose heart.

   B. Working environment and daily life should be paid much attention to.

   C. It is unnecessary for us to think about the conditions of personal relationships.

   D. Unhappy experience may not surely make people upset all the time.

(   ) 8. In your opinion,the best title for this passage may be         .

   A. Unhappiness Has Risen in the Past Decade

   B. The Problems,the Solutions

   C. The Biggest Problems in the World

   D. What's Your Life Look Like

A machine which makes water out of air could become the greatest household invention since the microwave.

Using the same technology as a dehumidifier (除濕器) ，the Water Mill is able to create a ready supply of drinking water by getting it from a limitless source―the air.

The company behind the machine says not only does it offer an alternative to bottled water in developed countries,but it is a solution for the millions who face a daily water shortage.

The machine works by drawing in damp air through a filter and over a cooling element which changes it into water droplets. It call produce up to 12        liters a day. The Water Mill will also produce more water when storms pass over,as the humidity (濕度) in the air increases. In keeping with its ecodevelopment,the machine uses the same amount of electricity as three light bulbs.

Inventor Jonathan Ritchey said, "The demand for water is off the chart. People ar looking for freedom from water distribution systems that are shaky and unreliable."

The machine,which is about 3        feet wide,is likely to cost £800 when it goes on sale her in the spring. Its maker,Canadian firm Element Four,estimates that a liter of water will cos around 20        pence to produce.

Environmentalists claim half the world's population will face water shortage because o        climate change by 2080. One in five humans is said to lack access to safe drinking water.

The Water Mill is not effective in areas with below about 30 percent relative humidity but with average relative humidity in England of more than 70 percent that won't be much o        an issue here.

(   ) 5. According to the author,the biggest advantage of the machine is its        .

   A. little power use   B. proper size

   C. unlimited source   D. high production

(   ) 6. We can conclude from the passage that the machine        .

   A. can be used everywhere

   C. will replace the water distribution system

   D. will solve the problem of water shortage

(   ) 7. What is necessary for the machine to work?

   A. Enough air. B. Enough humidity.

   C. Enough water. D. Enough containers.

(   ) 8. What is the best title for this passage?

   A. Machine to Make Water Out of Air
