Today I went to Berkeley, near our old neighborhood. I was a bit surprised by the increased number of homeless (alternatively housed) people walking around. I remember there are more in certain areas. So the first man who asked me for money got all my single bills. So when the second man asked me two minutes later, I said I was out because I gave all I had to the previous person.
I was headed to the grocery store for a coffee and after I left the store I walked out to find him as he had asked me for something because he was hungry and I invited him to go into the grocery store with me.
When I asked him what he wanted to eat, he just asked for vegetable and rice. He talked about how much better the vegetables were as we waited for our number to be called. While we waited he told me that he had slept outside last night on the sidewalk, that it was not good, and that he had come from Rwanda and was alone. He was a gentleman. When I asked if he wanted more he said, this bowl of food would last him the whole day.
I don’t know what his circumstances were before he came to California, and wandering and begging on the streets could somehow be better because you just never know what had happened to him. He seemed like a kind soul who just needed some help like we all do. I am grateful I did a little to help him today.
25. Why did the author fail to give the second homeless man money?
A. He kept some money for others.
B. He donated all her small money to the first man.
C. He didn’t take any money that day.

A. Understandable.
B. Strange.
C. Hopeless.
D. Pitiful.

Most middle school students find it boring to learn Math. But students in Yat Sen middle school in New York, US, don’t think so. Why? Because they are in the school of One Program, which asks students to work on their own or in small groups on computers to have math lessons.
“The program gives the students a new learning style. No traditional classroom can compare with it. We give each lesson according to the students’ interest and their strong and weak points,” said Joel. Klein, the school’s head teacher, “we’re looking for a new way that interests students.”
Students enjoy these math lessons, especially lessons with video games. They must find out the answers to math problems to get through the game. One such game is Dimension M. As students move through mazes(迷宫) with their keyboards, some questions come up.
Caleb Deng had to answer the question: What is 5+ (6×3)? He calculated on paper quickly because there was just a minute left to play.
“I was right,” said Deng, 14, as he ended the game with a high score (高分). “This really makes math lessons more exciting, since we are fighting to learn better.”
28. Students in Yat Sen Middle School like math because ________.
A. they work in large group
B. math questions are easy there

D. they can work on computer
29. Which is NOT true of the program?

The Eurotunnel is a tunnel（隧道） which crosses the Channel under the sea, linking France and the UK. It is about 50.5 km long and 38km lies under the seabed. There are trains which carry passengers and cars, and others which carry carriages or other heavier vehicles（车辆）, as well as goods.
The construction of the tunnel started in 1986, with a cost of almost 10 billion pounds. It was opened in 1994 but was not financially successful until 2007, because of the interest rates (利率) the company had to pay the banks, as well as low earnings from passengers and goods.
The Eurotunnel is a very convenient way of traveling between the two countries as the journey is quick (less than one hour), cheap, and comfortable. You can go with your car, motorbike or bike. The tunnel operates every day, round the clock. At the busiest times there are up to three shuttle departures (班次) per hour. There are facilities (设施) for disabled passengers, and for babies at the two terminals (终点站).$
The Eurotunnel, also commonly known as the Channel Tunnel, Eurochannel and Eurochunnel is environmentally friendly. It perfects its sources of energy through its use of renewable energy with the result that, by 2008, it had reduced its greenhouse gas emissions（排量） by 45%.
In addition, 50% of the waste produced is recycled.
The future of the Eurotunnel seems promising, although there are some people who have the fear of enclosed (与外界隔绝的) spaces and would never use this type of transportation. There have been some problems with snow storms like the one in the winter of the 2009 which have made the services stop for a period of time, leaving passengers in the tunnel for more than 15 hours without light, heating, food or drink, inside an unmoving train under the sea. Some of the passengers reacted very badly and have decided not to use this means of transport ever again.
32. Why was the Eurotunnel not financially successful at first?
A. It was free for passing trains
B. Many people disliked it.
C. Its operating cost was very high.
D. It was heavily in debt (债务).
33. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The wonderful design of the Eurotunnel
B. A traveling guide to the Eurotunnel
C. The advantages of the Eurotunnel.
D. An introduction of the Eurotunnel’s equipment.
34. We can infer from the text that the Eurotunnel
A. used environmentally friendly energy
B. was completely built under the seabed
C. was designed for passenger trains
D. operated successfully without any accident
35. What is the author’s attitude towards the Eurotunnel?
A. Cautious
B. Optimistic
C. Negative
D. Doubtful

Composition:
Dear Tom,
I have received your letter asking me whether I have some stress in my study . As a senior high school student facing the college entrance examination, I surely have some stress.
In my opinion, a proper amount of stress is beneficial to us. It can inspire us to work harder and be more creative. However, too much stress can make us break down. Therefore, we should do something to reduce the stress. For example, we can listen to music to help us relax. Besides, we can play some interesting games with our friends. I hope my advice will be helpful to you.
Yours,
LiHua
