A.make up
B.pick up
C.set up
D.divide up
答案:A 句意:温总理在演讲中说希腊文明与东方文明互补,共同为世界的发展做出了贡献。make up for“弥补”,符合题意。pick up“捡起,好转,用车接”;set up “建立,树立”;divide up“分开”。

So Camilla left the house, desperately looking for something __5__ to eat. She ended up in a small __6__ house full of old pots and glasses of all shapes and __7__. Out of all of them,the one that most caught Camilla's __8__ was a shiny little bottle made of goldcolored __9__.It seemed to be full of chocolate,
and Camilla began
to eat __10__.It was delicious, but she felt strange, so she read the __11__. “Glass Tears,” it said, and in small print it explained:
“Magically convert (使转变)__12__ into chocolate.”
Camilla was excited! She ran everywhere looking for someone who was __13__, and she came upon a little girl who was weeping __14__.

1.A.habits
B.friends

C.satisfied
D.astonished
答案:A 由下文说她的父母把家里的甜食都拿走了可知,他们很担心(worried)。
4.A.destroyed

答案:B 由下文中的Glass Tears可知,这个瓶子是用“玻璃”制成的。
10.A.slowly
B.gently
C.nervously
D.quickly
答案:D 由上文可知,在父母藏了甜食后,Camilla急切地想找到甜食,因此一发现巧克力,她应该会急切地吃起来,故此用quickly符合语境。
11.A.notice
B.label
C.note
D.warning
答案:B 瓶子上的文字“Glass Tears”应该是写在标签(label)上的。
12.A.smiles

D.moving
答案:C 由空后的the delicious tears可知,此处指Camilla和小女孩一起品尝(taste)了美味的眼泪。
18.A.time

答案:A 由下一句可知,她不再疯狂寻找甜食,而是寻找那些她能够帮助的悲伤的人。这说明她认识到了让人们高兴比巧克力要宝贵得多。valuable意为“宝贵的,有价值的”。
.阅读表达
Do you blank out or feel so nervous in exams that you have trouble writing answers to questions that you knew just last night? If so, you likely have a case of test anxiety.
But, don't be afraid. By recognizing the problem, you are taking the first step towards overcoming it.
Believe it or not, a touch of nervousness can sharpen your mind, allowing you to perform more quickly. This is because under stress, the body releases the hormone adrenaline (肾上腺素), which prepares it for something important that will happen. However, too much anxiety can result in sleeplessness, loss of appetite before tests, and poor performance. Some people might feel hot and tired. With great anger they often shout or complain for no reason.
If you worry a lot or are a perfectionist, you are more likely to have trouble with test anxiety. Those who have prepared poorly for a test or have had negative experiences taking tests may also experience test anxiety.
When you feel a storm of anxiety coming on, stop what you're doing and make your mind a blank. If possible, actually tell yourself to “STOP!” This will get your mind off the stress. Then think of being at a place of comfort and let your body relax. As you continue the test, find questions you know the answers to and answer them first. This will help restore your confidence.
Important of all, talk to yourself using positive languages. Make it a habit to replace each negative thought with a logical reason. For example: “I've studied hard and I know the material, so I'm ready to do the best I can.”
Another thing you can do is to learn to accept mistakes. In fact, they can be valuable learning opportunities.
Last but not least, start test preparation early-three to five days ahead of the quiz or test. After all, good study habits and skills -for example, time management and notetakingwill give you the feeling that you are in control.
1.What is probably the best title of the passage?
( No more than 10 words )

4.What makes you feel that you are in control of the test in the last paragraph? (No more than 7 words)
______________________________________________
5.Do you think that a touch of anxiety can have a positive effect? And why? (No more than 20 words)

答案:
1.Tips on how to beat test anxiety.
2.Those who worry a lot or are a perfectionist.

参考范文:
Dear Li Hua,
Truly,the year of senior three is quite critical.
As far as I know,time is always not enough for us.So first of all,you need to arrange your time well.You'd better make a longterm study plan,say(=for example),a onemonth plan with more efforts to take up your weak subjects.And a shortterm plan is equally necessary,if not more important.You have to make sure of what you need to do each day,each class and even each minute.
At the same time,it's quite essential to keep healthy.So take exercise for at least one hour and sleep for no less than seven hours a day.And don't
forget to eat well.More vegetables and fruit can provide you with richer nutrition.
Hope you will enjoy the last year of senior high and go to an ideal university next year.
Yours ever,
×××
