| Have you ever heard of Florida pompano? It's a flat, silvery fish and very delicious! In fact, people who know a lot about fish say it's one of the best-tasting kinds of fish in the world to eat. Maybe that's one reason why it costs so much to buy pompano (鲳参鱼) at the fish market or at a restaurant. Agricultural Research Service scientists in Florida are discovering many new and important secrets about this tasty fish. It lives in the warm waters off the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. The scientists are studying pompano. Because they want fish farmers to be able to grow them in big tanks, somewhat the same way trout and catfish are grown in big outdoor ponds. Raising pompano in big tanks inland could help everyone be sure that there will always be lots of wild pompano in the sea. People could buy them from the fish farm instead of mostly only being able to buy pompano caught from the sea. Sometimes, if a fish is too popular, a problem called "overfishing" can happen. The fish could become harder and harder to find in the ocean. The fish might even disappear completely. The trouble with pompano is that no one really knows very much about how to grow big, healthy pompano in big tanks at a fish farm. That's why scientists are trying to learn as much as they can about pompano. Maybe someday soon it will be easy to buy and eat pompano raised at fish farms, instead of pompano fished from the sea. When that happens, you may remember this story about these scientists who helped find out how to raise delicious pompano in a new, Earth-friendly way. |

| A. it remains a secret for the scientists. B. it cannot be raised in big tanks inland. C. it's the best-tasting kinds of fish in the world. D. it lives warmly off the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. |
| 2. Paragraph 4 mainly tell us raising pompano at fish farms ______. |
| A. makes it easier to buy and eat the pompano B. prevents people catching pompano from the sea C. stops people buying pompano caught from the sea D. helps make sure wild pompano will remain in the sea |
| 3. The word "overfishing" in paragraph 5 means ______. |
| A. 过度捕捞 B. 太受欢迎 C. 完全消失 D. 难以搜寻 |
| 4. What's the trouble of raising the big fish? |
| A. Scientists are still working on it. B. It's almost a secret to farm the fish. C. it's impossible to keep the fish healthy. D. no one knows the way of raising the fish. |
| 5. The best title of the passage may be ______. |
| A. Pompano: the tasty fish B. secrets of the big fish C. A challenge: growing the big fish D. the way of raising the big fish |

| Life comes in a package. This package includes happiness and sorrow, failure and success, hope and despair. Life is a learning process. Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make us a better person. With each passing day we learn to handle various situations. Love Love plays a pivotal role on out life. Love makes you feel wanted. Without love a person could go Hayward(不归路) and also become cruel and ferocious. In the early stage of our life, our parents are the ones who show us with unconditional love and care, they teach us about what is right and wrong, good and bad. But we always tend to take this for granted. It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands and becomes sensitive to others feelings. Kids make a person responsible and mature and help us to understand life better. Happiness and Sorrow Materialistic happiness is short-lived, but happiness achieved by bringing a smile on others face gives a certain level of fulfillment. Peace of mind is the main link to happiness. No mind is happy without peace. We realize the true worth of happiness when we are in sorrow. Sorrow is basically due to death of a loved one, failure and despair. But these things are temporary and pass away. Failure and Success Failure is the path to success. It helps us to touch the sky, teaches us to survive and shows us a specific way. Success brings in money, fame, pride and self-respect. Here it becomes very important to keep our head on our shoulder he only way to show our gratitude to God for bestowing success on us is by being humble, modest, courteous and respectful to the less fortunate ones. Hope and Despair Hope is what keeps life going. Parents always hope their children will do well. Hope makes us dream. Hope builds in patience. Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour, because after every night there is a day. Nothing remains the same we have only one choice keep moving on in life and be hopeful. Life teaches us not to regret over yesterday, for it has passed and is beyond our control. Tomorrow is unknown, for it could either be bright or dull. So the only alternative is work hard today, so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow. |

| "I swear, I didn't steal anything!" I shouted over the alarm. Obviously the security guard didn't believe me because he seized the shopping bag right out of my hand. "Do you have a receipt for this?"he asked doubtfully, putting any new back-to-school outfit (全套装备) onto the dusty floor near the mall entrance. "Of course I do," I replied, fishing my wallet out of my coat pocket. Elsie and Monica, my two best friends, stood beside me. They were laughing their heads off! I almost tore my wallet apart for the receipt, but it had disappeared." Let me look again," I said nervously. Then I looked again, and again, and again! My face was getting hotter by the minute and my heart was beating like a racehorse. Finally, I looked back at the guard and whispered, "It's not here." The guard picked up my clothes and said, "You'll have to come with me, Miss." When he opened the office door, I saw a man sitting behind a big metal desk. It was the manager. Then I had an idea. "May I say something?" I asked. "I can prove I didn't steal this thing." Then I explained all about the cashier (出纳员).She said that she had bought the exact same outfit as a birthday present for her little sister. "We'll just see about that," the manager said and went off to find her. Ten minutes later, I was free! It was terrible to be unfairly accused of something!Then I remembered shouting at my sister that very morning for taking my new hair clips. Had she really taken them?I made a promise that day never to accuse someone of something without proof, and I haven't. At least something good came out of my terrible experience. |

| New findings from Queen's University biologists show that in the plant world, bigger isn't necessarily better. "Until now most of the thinking has suggested that to be a good competitor in the forest, you have to be a big plant," says Queen's Biology professor Lonnie Aarssen. "But our research shows it's virtually the other way around." Previous studies showed that larger plant species monopolize(垄断) sunlight, water and Other resources, limiting the number of smaller plant species that can exist around them. But the research has proved that this is not generally the case in natural vegetation. In the Queen's project, PhD student Laura Keating targeted the largest "host plants" of 16 woody plant species growing in the Okanogan Valley, British Columbia. The research team calculated the number and variety of plants that neighbored each large host plant. They then randomly selected plots without host plants and calculated the plant species there as well. The research showed that the massive trees have no effect on the number of species with which they coexist. Smaller plants have many advantages over their overbearing neighbors, Professor Aarssen notes. Larger species generate physical space niches(生态位)under their shelters where smaller species grow well. Smaller plants are much more effective than large trees at using available resources. They also produce seeds at a much younger age and higher rate than their bigger counterparts, and settle down much more quickly-thus competing with the newly-born plants of larger species. |

| A. Smaller plants may have many advantages over their neighbors. B. In the plant world, the bigger is better than the smaller one. C. To be a good competitor in the forest, you have to be a small plant. D. Queen's University's students made a new research. |
| 2. The underlined word "this" in Para.3 refers to the view that ____. |
| A. large and small plants can grow together in harmony B. larger plant species limit their smaller neighbors' growth C. small plant species have their own advantages D. large and small plant species can never coexist. |
| 3. What does the underlined word coexist mean in paragraph 4? |
| A. cooperate together B. surround together C. evolve together D. live together |
| 4. Which is the CORRECT order in the Queen's project? a. Randomly selected plots without host plants and-calculated the plant species. b. Calculated the number and variety of plants that neighbored each large host plant. c. Selected the largest individuals or "host plants" of 16 woody plant species. |
| A. a, b, c B. c, b, a C. b, c, a D. a, c, b |
| 5. What can we learn according to the text? |
| A. Larger plant species limit the number of smaller ones around them. B. Smaller plants can limit the number of plant species around them. C. Smaller plants produce seeds at a higher rate than their bigger counterparts. D. Larger trees are more effective than small plants at using available resources. |
| 阅读理解。 阅读下面的短文，请根据短文后的要求将答案答题(请注意问题后的要求)。 The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we've never been before. But just as in face-to-face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when online. The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated. Imagine how you'd feel if you were in the other person's shoes. For anything you're about to send: ask yourself, "Would I say this to the person's face?" If the answer is "no", rewrite and reread. Repeat the process till you feel sure that you'd feel comfortable saying the words to the person's face. If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct(本能反应)is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so. You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages. If it was caused by disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room. If you do decide to tell someone in the chat room about a mistake, point it out politely. At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended. It is not polite such as their age, sex, and marital status. Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don't ask such questions. |
