18、ppy new year. He looked in every room, and shouted the words of welcome. He ran into the street, to repeat them to those he met. When he came back, his father gave him two bright, new dollars. His face lighted up as he took them. He had wished for a long time to buy some pretty books that he had see
19、n at the bookstore. He left the house with a light heart and went to buy the books. As he ran down the street, he saw a poor family, the father, mother and three children shivering（颤抖) with cold. I wish you a happy new year, said Edward, as he was passing on happily. The man shook his head. “You do
20、not belong to this country,” said Edward. The man again shook his head, for he could not understand. But he pointed to his mouth, and to the children. Edward quickly understood that these poor people were in trouble. These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time. He took out his dollars,
21、 and gave one to the man and the other to his wife. They said nothing, but Edward saw the gratitude（感激）in their eyes. When Edward came back home, his father asked what books he had bought.

25、ly life C 第 5 页 共 10 页 There are many interesting books available in libraries or bookstores, but sometimes people feel confused in finding a good book for them to read. If you are facing this problem, you should not feel confused. In this article, you will find some solutions in choosing a good boo
26、k to read. Here they are. First, you can start to find out some books that are included in the top selling lists. Usually, those books are very good either in their contents （内容) or in the writing styles(风格） of the authors. A lot of people read those books because they are really good books to read.
27、 So, you might find those interesting things offered by those books as well. Second, you can ask recommendations（推荐）or opinions from salespersons in the bookstore. Tell them what kind of books you are interested in. Usually, they will have some recommendations of good books for you. You can also vis
28、it some libraries and ask the opinions of the librarians. Third, you can read the book in a glance. You can start to look through your chosen book then you can go on to some first paragraphs of the book. Sometimes, you can easily make sure whether you are going to enjoy the book or not from its firs
29、t page. Fourth, you can also ask some of your friends about their favorite books. You can ask them to tell you about the general contents of the books or about the writing styles. If you are interested in the books recommended by your friends, you can list them on your must-buy books. However, you s
30、hould not ask the whole stories or contents of the books. Sometimes, getting more information of book contents might make you lose interest in those books. It is quite easy, right?

31、 ways. 27. According to the passage, if you need some recommendations of a book, you can_.

33、 Changing the Way Kids Develop Relationships? Technology is redefining（重新定义）the meaning of relationships. For example, technology has enabled people who have never met nor will ever meet to call themselves friends. It makes the line between connections and real friends become unclear. 第 6 页 共 10 页 B
34、ecause of technologys omnipresence（遍在;无所不在) in the lives of most children, it is shaping how children feel about and develop relationships without fully consideration of the influence that it has on childrens relationships. Because of this growing influence of technology on them, children need to re
35、ally understand where they are learning about relationships and whether what they are learning is healthy and will lay the groundwork for a future of positive relationships. Its necessary to recognize these changes because relationships play such a central role in who children become and the quality
36、 of the lives they lead. Relationships provide children with a foundation of values, love, security, and support. The quality of childrens early relationships acts as the model on which their future relationships are modeled and built. Later relationships with peers, teachers, and other influential
37、people shape childrens beliefs about the world and the direction that their lives will take. In fact, there is no aspect(方面)of childrens lives that remains untouched by relationships. At the same time, many of the changes in relationships caused by technology have been positive. Technology has also
38、been a good thing to keep already-established（建立） relationships. If you have family or friends who live at a great distance, they no longer have to rely on the telephone or snail mail to stay connected. They can contact through email, texting and so on. As with all value-neutral（价值中立的）advancements,
39、there are both benefits and costs, positive uses and unhealthy misuses. My worry focuses on how children come to define relationships and the role that technology is playing in that process(过程). For example, I hear many young people talking about all of the “friends” they have made on the web. There
40、s no doubt that the web has enabled people everywhere to connect and communicate like never before, but I would argue that connection alone can not make a relationship. 30. The line between connections and real friends has become unclear because_. A. technology brings new change B. its difficult to
41、find real friends C. its wise to connect with strangers D. technology gives kids more free time 31. What do you know about childrens relationships from the passage? A. Relationships are easy to develop for children. B. Children can understand relationships correctly. C. Relationships connect with ev
42、ery part of childrens lives. D. Childrens later relationships are more important than their early ones. 32. The writer probably agrees that_. A. children cant make friends on the web B. technology is changing childrens lives C. technology cant cause positive influence D. children dislike the growing
43、 influence of technology 33. What is the writers main purpose in writing this passage? 第 7 页 共 10 页 A. To list the changes in relationships caused by technology. B. To introduce a new type of relationships in kids daily life. C. To tell the kids to develop their relationships with the help of the te
44、chnology. D. To remind the kids of thinking about the influence of technology on their relationships. 四、阅读下面的短文，并根据短文内容回答问题。(（共 10 分，每小题 2 分) My name is Anne. When I was 9 years old, I received my first handmade card. It was from one of my classmates. He had just moved to New Jersey from South Korea
45、. He had a hard time adjusting(适应）to his new school, and I helped him. He wanted to show his appreciation（欣赏，感激） but didnt know how to express himself. So he made me a card. It was a folded (折叠的）piece of paper from his notebook, with a picture hed drawn on the front. There were only a few sentences
46、inside but those words meant a lot to me at the time. Since then, I have known how special handwritten cards can be. They take time and effort to make and feel very personal. Like photographs, cards can be stored and looked back on. I think you can make your own unique（独一无二的） card with supplies you
47、have at home. Or you can buy a card from a store. The most important thing of a card is the message you write inside. Do you know how to write the message in a handwritten card? The following steps can give you some help. The first step is to think of a person for whom youd like to make a card. Will you give it to a friend or a family member? Or is it for someone you dont know that well but who might need a little encouragement? Next, think about what kind of card youd like to make. There are many types: Thank-you cards, congratulations cards, holiday cards, and Im-sorry cards are just a few.
