16.When Mrs.Gabica went out of the teaching building after finishing the last class in her career,she saw a lot of pupils on the playground,wearing uniform clothing,like an activity of celebrating the coming Teachers'Day.Before realizing what happened,she was presented a bunch of flowers by two pupils and led to the playground.Then the loving words"Thank you.Wish you health and peace!"from the broadcast wafted (飄蕩) over the playground.As she stood in the middle of the playground,teachers switched on an iPod and around 350 schoolchildren,aged three to seven,broke into a specially designed formation.The teacher was moved to tears when pupils broke into a flash mob dance to mark her final day after 25years.
In fact,taking her health into account,the leadership of the school has advised Mrs.Gabica to retire from school many times,but she refused firmly.Despite having diabetes in 2011,suffering from pain after being hit by a car in 2014 and even having a sick son to care for many years,Mrs.Gabica persevered in teaching and staying with her pupils.If she did not come to the age for retirement,she would be bound to stay with her pupils because she has a deep love for her career.Her pupils spent three weeks learning their routine to The Lion King's He Lives in You,which was one of the music lover's favorites,being careful not to let their secret out of the bag.Obviously,Mrs.Gabica wasn't prepared for such a memorable send-off.
The headteacher Luke Mansfield said,"It was a wonderful way to celebrate all that Mrs.Gabica has done for the school.Since posting it we have had so many messages from former pupils who remember their happy times in her class.It's a testament to the hard work and I think she deserves everything that she receives."

25.Which words can best describe the scene of the send-off?B
A.Surprising and inspiring.
B.Touching and surprising
C.Sorrowful and unforgettable.
D.Educational and memorable.

A.a(chǎn) car accident
B.a(chǎn) serious disease
C.her retirement age
D.the need of her family

C.Mrs.Gabica's family may need help after her retirement.

4.Many people would love to leave their jobs behind and have a life-changing adventure overseas.They imagine lying under palm trees as the sun goes down.However,life overseas is not always easy,and many are not prepared for the shock of living in an alien culture.
The honeymoon period
At first,for those who actually decide to move abroad,life is an exciting adventure.They enjoy exploring their new surroundings,and life seems like an extended holiday.They don't mind trying the local cuisine and discovering the local culture.They can even afford to practice their foreign-language skills without fear of making mistakes.
Trouble in paradise
In many cases,when people consider moving to another country,they often fail to realize how different life will be.As time goes by,they become frustrated when language and cultural misunderstandings become a daily headache.In this stage,the visitors begin to withdraw from life in the host country and avoid spending time with local people in favor of mixing with others from their own cultural background.
The road to recovery
Gradually,most visitors realize they must accept the differences and not fight against them.This change encourages them to improve their language skills and slowly they manage to do the things they could easily do at home,such as opening a bank account.This new-found confidence enables them to see a side of life which very few tourists get to witness.
Adjusting to life abroad can often be a real problem.The secret to overcoming it is to stop trying to change your host country:you will not succeed.If not,you risk losing your dream and having to return to the old life you wanted to leave behind.

21.Why do people moving abroad feel excited at first?C
A.They find foreign living much easier.
B.They have the necessary language skills.
C.They love the adventure and exploration.
D.They enjoy meeting people from different cultures.
22.According to the author,what is the main problem many people moving abroad face?B
A.Homesickness.
B.Culture shock.
C.Health problems.
D.Lack of employment.
23.What would the author suggest people moving abroad do?A
A.Study the local language.
B.Go on holidays frequently.
C.Learn how to open a bank account.
D.Seek out people from their home country.

8.Everyone can benefit a lot from reading books.The following is about the various benefits of reading books.
(36)CWhenever you read something,you learn information that you otherwise wouldn't have known.It can be a fact about history or a theory you didn't know existed.If you want to learn  new words,reading books is a great way to enlarge your vocabulary.
(37)F Similar to solving puzzles,reading books allows your mind to practice its processing skills.Going without books for too long will turn your mind into a whirl(混亂).
One of the primary benefits of reading books is its ability to develop your critical thinking skills.(38)EWherever you are faced with a similar problem in real life,your mind is able to put its mystery-solving skills to a test.
One of the real benefits of reading books is that the information in it can be accessed over and over again.For example,reading a cookbook allows you the luxury of reviewing the procedures whenever you need to.(39)D  Don't even think about writing the information down because you may lose the paper you wrote down on sooner or later.
These are just some of the wonderful benefits of reading books.(40)GIf you can't even go outside,you can download free e-books on line and read them on your computer.That way,you can set how advantageous reading can be for yourself.

A.Reading books keeps your mind active.
B.You can improve your memory by reading.
C.Reading books provides you with new knowledge.
D.Following a recipe from a cooking show will be difficult.

F.Reading keeps your mind in good condition.
G.Why don't you drop by the bookstore or library and pick a book up?

6.I stood at the edge of the cliff (懸崖).Dark-feathered birds circled the air,diving low over the ocean every now and then to catch their dinner.Below me,hundreds of feet below,the deep ocean beat against the rough sandy shore.I took a deep breath,filling my lungs with expectation and excitement-and at the same time,fear.
I was here for the shooting of a movie as I was one of the lead actors in the film Dangerous Things,and this was the most important scene right in the middle of it.It was vital that this went right.
The director had talked to me about getting a stunt double (替身),but I'd persuaded him that I could handle the dive.I'd taken a diving course a few years before,and I'd been taking swimming lessons since I was five years old.I had been pretty confident that I could do this-up till now.
Someone called out,"Keira,you don't have to do this!Are you sure you want to dive?"It was one of the producers,Callie Evans.I knew she meant well,but deep in my heart I knew I couldn't turn back now.I couldn't bear to see the disappointed look on the director's face when he was told that I couldn't do it.
At that moment,all my fears and worries broke free.I dived downwards.The air on either side of me cut into my extended arms.I knew that this wonderful feeling of flight would only last a few seconds,yet time seemed to slow down.I could hear the thrilled screams of my crew and a burst of applause (鼓掌) that seemed to echo in my ears.

32.We can learn from the first paragraph that the writer feltD.

33.What was the writer doing?B

D.A stunt double could help him.
35.What happened while the writer was diving down?D
