4．阅读理解

Scrub, the pet cat of Jennifer's, was found! It got lost five years ago. Jennifer looked for it everywhere but failed each time. She thought Scrub would never come back. But one day she got a call from an animal shelter（庇护所） and was told they had found Scrub!

How did they know Scrub belonged to Jennifer? How did they know Jennifer's phone number? All the information was available because of the microchip, a very small computer chip（薄片）. It was placed under Scrub's skin many years earlier.

The microchip is usually placed under the skin of an animal's shoulder to keep its ID number. Once the chip is in place, the pet does not feel it anymore. When lost pets are brought to animal shelters, people there use a special tool to look for the microchip and read the ID number on it, then they'll call the microchip company to match the number to the information of the pet's owner. This is how the shelter was able to tell Jennifer that they had found Scrub.

Microchips have helped thousands of owners get their lost pets back. In New York, a dog named Roxy was missing for months. Then a woman found her on a busy street in New Jersey. No one knows how the dog got to a different state. However, thanks to her microchip, Roxy was soon returned to her grateful owner.

In 2008, a couple got their cat George back after he had disappeared 13 years earlier! When George got lost, the couple tried everything to find him. They visited animal shelters every day for six months, made posters and even offered a $500 reward（酬金）. As years went by, they thought George would never be back till they got the call from an animal shelter. Without the microchip, the cat would never be able to come home again.

Microchips can not only work for a pet's whole life but help lost pets no matter how far they've been away from home. This is why microchips may be just the thing to help bring missing pets back home.

（1）How did Jennifer find her pet cat?

A. By visiting animal shelters. B. By offering a $500 reward.

C. With the help of the microchip. D. With the help of a woman in New Jersey. （2）Which statement about microchips is NOT true according to the passage? A. They are very small computer chips. B. They are under an animal's skin of its shoulder. C. They can help the owners to find the long-lost pets. D. They can only work for a lost pet that's far away from home.

（3）The right order of how animal shelters help lost pets return home is . ①Get the ID number of the lost pet.

②Call the owner to bring the lost pet home. ③Look for the microchip of the lost pet.

④Call the microchip company to match the number to the information of its owner.

A. ③①②④ B. ③④①② C. ①③④② D. ③①④②

（4）According to the passage, we can know that . A. the couple thought the microchip wasn't helpful at all B. Scrub didn't feel uncomfortable with the microchip in its body C. it took a long time to match Roxy's ID number to her owner's information D. Jennifer herself found her cat according to the ID number on its microchip （5）What is the main idea of the passage? A. The reasons why pets got lost. B. Different ways to find the lost pets. C. The ways how people care for the lost pets.

D. The introduction of how microchips help the lost pets return home. 【答案】 （1）C （2）D （3）D （4）B （5）D

5．根据短文内容，判断正误。 Dear Alan,

Guess what? I have a chance to choose my new place to live in. I am excited and a little nervous. Could you please give me some help?

I am not sure whether I will live in a house or in an apartment. On the one hand, a house will be too big for just one person, so maybe I should rent an apartment, On the other hand, if I rent a house, I could find someone else to share with me. The only problem is that a house full of people might be too noisy for me. I prefer to have my own space. The city has some nice apartments, but they are also too expensive. However, if I could find a two-bedroom apartment and get a roommate, that would make it more affordable. I just need to search for a roommate who is neat and quiet. You know I can not live with someone who is loud and messy. I do not have a car, so I also need to think carefully about the location. I probably need to look for somewhere near a bus stop or an underground station. That way I will have more time to study and spend less time travelling. I'm looking forward to your reply.

Love, Victor

New emojis in 2019 also include several animals, such as sloths（树懒） and flamingos（火烈鸟）. These animals are not very common, but are known to many people.

8．阅读理解

Have you ever wanted to achieve a goal and ended up doing lots of research on how to achieve it? As you learned more and more. It seemed you knew less and less. That is because when you learned a new concept（概念）. You found that there was a lot more to know about it. Usually, people think they need to get more and more information before trying a new idea. There is nothing wrong with learning a lot, but when you let learning get in the way of doing, you will never get going.

One of the best ways to learn is to take action and learn from the results that you get from those actions. Don't be afraid of not being perfect and just take the first step. You will go further than those who are still in preparation. It's good to be prepared, but over-preparation in trying to

reach a goal won't get you results. The knowledge and skills that you will need will be picked up along the way.

If a baby wants to learn how to walk, it doesn't do it by just sitting there and thinking about how to walk. The best way for a baby to walk is to actually get up and start walking. Sure it may fall, but with every fall, it learns what is working and what is not and adjusts（调整）to it. By doing this over and over, it will finally learn to walk. This is the method you should use when you want to achieve your goals as well. It works.

Learning more is great but if all you're doing is learning and not taking action, it's time to change that. Just take the first step.

（1）When you learned something new, you found there was to know about it. A. less B. nothing C. everything D. more （2）Which is NOT true according to the passage? A. People need to learn a lot before trying a new idea. B. One of the best ways to learn is to take action. C. Learning has nothing to do with doing. D. Over-preparation is not good for reaching a goal.

（3）A baby should when it wants to learn how to walk. A. get up and start walking

B. sit there and think about how to walk C. learn from its parents D. read books about how to walk

（4）We can usually read the passage in .

A. a storybook B. a newspaper C. an advertisement D. a guidebook （5）The purpose of the passage is . A. to tell us how to learn more B. to tell us how to be successful C. to talk about the importance of doing D. to talk about the importance of learning 【答案】 （1）D （2）C （3）A （4）B （5）C

【解析】【分析】本文告诉我们一个道理，最后的学习方法是从行为结果中去学习。 （1）细节题。根据 As you learned more and more. It seemed you knew less and less.随着你学得越来越多。看来你知道的越来越少了，可知当你学到新东西时你发现有更多的东西要知道 ， 故选D。

（2）细节题。根据One of the best ways to learn is to take action and learn from the results that you get from those actions 学习的最好方法之一是采取行动，从这些行动中获得的结果中学习，可知学习与做无关是错的 ， 故选C。

（3）细节题。根据 The best way for a baby to walk is to actually get up and start walking可知，当婴儿想学会走路时，就应该站起来开始走，故选A。

（4）推理题。根据本文是告诉我们一个道理，故会在报纸上看到这篇文章，故选B。 （5）主旨题。本文告诉我们一个道理，最后的学习方法是从行为结果中去学习，故本文是谈论做的重要性 ，故选C。

One night, when I was eight, my mother gently asked me a question I would never forget. \"Sweetie, my company wants to promote（升职） me but needs me to work in Brazil. This is like your teacher telling you that you've done well and allowing you to skip（跳） a grade, but you'll have to leave your friends. Would you say yes to your teacher?\" She gave me a hug and asked me to think about it. I was lost in thought. The question kept me wondering for the rest of the night. I had said \"Yes\" but for the first time, I realized the difficult decisions adults had to make. For almost four years, my mother would call us from Brazil every day. Every evening I'd eagerly wait for the phone to ring and then tell her everything that happened during the day. A phone call, however, could never take her place and it was difficult not to feel lonely at times. During my fourth-grade Christmas break, we flew to Rio to visit her. Looking at her large empty apartment. It was then I started to understand the difficult choices she had to make. She needed to think about both family and work. Faced with difficult decisions, she used to tell me, you wouldn't know whether you made the right choice, but you could always make the best out of the situation, with a positive attitude.

Back home, I reminded myself that what my mother could do, I could, too. If she managed to live in Rio all by herself, I, too, could learn to be independent. I learn how to take care of myself and set high but achievable goals.

My mother is now back with us. But I will never forget what the experience has really taught me. I've learned a lot because of this separation（分离）. There are lots of difficult decisions that we have to face in our life. We need to have a positive attitude no matter what happens. （1）It was __________ for the writer to say \"Yes\" to her mother s question. A. excited B. difficult C. unusual D. easy （2）Which of the following sentences can be put in the blank in Paragraph 3? A. I thought my mother might regret her decision. B. I thought my mother might want to go home with us. C. I realized how lonely my mother was in Brazil herself. D. I realized my mother had a happy time in Brazil herself.

（3）The writer most probably wants to tell us that __________.

12．阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳答案。

If you look at the top of your phone, you'll usually see a little symbol that says 3G or 4G. The \"G\" stands for the \"generation\" （代） of your mobile network. But the symbols will become things of the past after 5G networks fully arrive.

On March 30, Shanghai vice-mayor Wu Qing made the first 5G video call on a Huawei Mate X Smartphone. Shanghai has also become the first city in China to start testing 5G networks. About 100 times faster than 4G networks, 5G will let people download and upload data（数据） faster than ever before. But 5G won't just bring faster mobile internet. People can use it for many other things as well.

For example, 5G will help to make self-driving cars safer. Today's self-driving test cars have one problem-lag（延迟）. When the car \"sees\" an obstacle（障碍物）, it sends this information to

a data center and receives instructions, However, it will be some time before it sends and receives this information. With this kind of lag, the cars might crash because they don't receive instructions in time. With 5G, this lag will be greatly lowered, making the cars safer.

5G could also be used to power the internet of things （IoT）, that is, a large online network that connects all things and people. Fast internet speeds will be the key to developing this technology. The IoT could be used in a lot of ways. For example, with IoT, your refrigerator could automatically （自动地） place an order online for eggs when it finds that there are no eggs left inside.

（1）Which city was 5G tested for the first time?

A. Beijing. B. Shanghai. C. Shenzhen. （2）What can we infer（推测） according to the passage?. A. 5G is widely used in China now.

B. 5G networks will make our lives more convenient. C. There are no symbols at the top of our phones.

（3）The writer uses self-driving cars as an example to . A. explain how 5G's fast speed can be helpful B. warn about the possible dangers of self-driving cars C. explain how self-driving cars work

（4）What is IoT according to the passage? A. A robot that can do housework.

B. An online store where you can buy anything.

C. A large online network that connects things and people. （5）Which sentence is right according to the passage? A. 5G will help us buy eggs quickly. B. Robots can help us buy eggs online. C. Our refrigerator can order eggs online for us. 【答案】 （1）B （2）B （3）A （4）C （5）C

【解析】【分析】短文大意：当人们看手机上方的时候，会看到3G或者4G的小符号。G代表手机网络的\"代\"。但是，当5G网络全面覆盖时，这些符号将会成为过去时。3月30日，上海吴清第一次使用华为Mate X智能手机进行视频通话，上海成为中国进行第一个测试5G的城市。5G将会在很多方面改善人们的生活。

（1）细节理解题。根据 Shanghai has also become the first city in China to start testing 5G networks。可知，上海是中国第一个进行5G测试的城市。故选B。

（2） 推理判断题。根据About 100 times faster than 4G networks， 5G will let people download and upload data（数据） faster than ever before。 But 5G won't just bring faster mobile internet。 People can use it for many other things well。可知，5G的速度将会是4G的

100倍，人们下载或者上传数据都会快很多。而且，5G不仅仅是在移动网络上给人们带来快捷。在其他方面，人们也可以利用5G。由此可以推断出，5G将会使人们的生活便利很多。故选B。

（3） 推理判断题。根据…With 5G， this lag will be greatly lowered， making the cars safer。可知，5G可以大大减少问题延迟，从而使无人驾驶汽车更安全。作者通过这个例子来告诉我们5G的告诉怎样起作用的。故选A。

13．阅读理解

When it comes to helping developing countries, we often think about offering money in order that they can build schools and hospitals, buy food and medicine, or find clean water supplies. These seem to be the most important basic needs in their lives. However, it's far from enough. We have to come up with better ideas.

A man called Nicholas Negroponte invented a cheap laptop computer, which he decided to invent after he visited a school in Cambodia. The laptop which Mr. Negroponte has designed is not the same as the normal one that you can buy in the shops. One difference is that it will be covered in rubber so that it is strong and won't be damaged easily. As an electricity supply can be a problem in developing countries, the computer also has a special handle in order that children can wind the computer up to give it extra power when needed.

This special laptop computer will cost less than 100 US dollars and Mr. Negroponte wants to produce as many as 15 million laptop computers in the first year. The idea is that these computers will help the children's education as they will be able to access the Internet. These computers might not benefit the people in developing countries immediately, but by improving children's education they should help people to find their own solutions to their problems in the long term.

Another idea to help children in developing countries is to recycle old mobile phones so that they can be used again. In the UK. And probably in many other countries too, millions of mobile phones are thrown away every year. The waste crested by throwing away thee old phones is very bed for the environment, so it seems to be an excellent idea to achieve two important goals at the same time. We will reduce the waste we produce and help others. In other words, we will be

able to\" kill two birds with one \"and that is always a good thing. （1）The underlined phrase \"wind up\" in paragraph 2 means .

A. 吹风 B. 给……上发条 C. 摇上 D. 利用空气……使…… （2）The laptop computer that Mr. Negroponte has designed . A. will be damaged much easier than the normal one B. has a special handle to access the Internet C. is cheap and can run with extra power D. can be helpful to find the people's own solutions

（3）According to the passage，what benefit can we get from recycling old mobile phones? A. We can reduce the waste to protect the environment.

B. We can help children in developing countries reuse the old mobile phones. C. it is good for the environment and very educative for phone users.

D. It not only reduces the waste produced by developed countries but also helps the children in developing countries.

（4）Mr. Negroponte's cheap computer is mentioned in the passage to . A. illustrate the kindness of people in the developed countries B. tell us what high technology can help people

C. show how to find business opportunities in developing countries D. give an example of how to help developing countries

（5）Which is the best idea the author gives us to help the developing countries? A. We need to help people in developing countries to help themselves，not just throw money at the problem.

B. We should spend much money helping people in developing countries build more schools and hospitals.

C. We should think about giving help to developing countries more often.

D. We should help the people in developing countries by improving children's education immediately. 【答案】 （1）B （2）C （3）D （4）D （5）A

【解析】【分析】主要讲了Nicholas Negroponte发明了一种便宜的手提电脑和循环使用手机来帮助发展中国家。

（1）细节题。根据give it extra power when needed.当需要的时候给它额外的能量，是通过特殊的把柄来产生能量，即通过上发条，故选B。

（2）细节题。根据A man called Nicholas Negroponte invented a cheap laptop computer和give it extra power when needed.可知手提电脑是便宜的，并且有额外的能量，故选C。 （3）细节题。根据We will reduce the waste we produce and help others.可知不仅降低了废弃物污染，而且帮助了发展中国家，故选D。

14．根据短文内容，判断下列句子正误。

Do you often listen to music at loud volumes （音量）? You should know that this habit is bad for your hearing. Over 1 billion young people are at risk of hearing loss （听力丧失） ,because of listening to loud noise for long periods of time. Listening to music or watching a TV show at loud volumes can harm your hearing.

The United Nations has standards for safe listening. It is not safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 85 dB （分贝） for eight hours or 100 dB for 15 minutes. The sound of a busy road is about 85 dB and the sound of a rock concert can be about 100 dB.

Loud noise is harmful to the inner二Most of us are bon with about 16,000 hair cells （听毛细胞） in our inner ears. These cells notice sounds. However, listening to loud noise for a long time can make these cells work too hard and cause some of them to die. This is what causes hearing loss. Once this happens, it's hard to get your hearing back.

Some people might think that their music isn't all that loud. But this can depend on where you are. For example, if you are in a noisy place like the subway, you might turn up your music too loud without realizing it. Later, when you listen to it at the same volume in a quiet place, you alight feel uncomfortable

The \"safe level\" for most sound is below 80 dB for up to 40 hours a week. A level of 80 dB is about equal to （相当于） the noise of a subway.

Here is some advice on safe listening. Over—the—ear headphones （头戴式耳机） are better than in—ear ones. They do a better job of stopping outside noise, so you can listen at a lower volume. Don't listen to loud music on your headphones for a long time. Follow the 60:60 rule: listen to music at 60 percent of your headphones' maximum volume for no more than 60 minutes a day.

（1）It is safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 100 dB for 15 minutes

（2）Listening to loud noise for a long time can cause some hair cells in the inner ear to die. （3）From the fourth paragraph, we know people don't always realize how loud their music is. （4）In—ear headphones are better than over—the—eat ones because they can stop more outside noise.

（5）This article mainly tells us why ears are an important part of our bodies. 【答案】 （1）0 （2）1 （3）1 （4）0 （5）0

【解析】【分析】文章大意： 本文主要讲述了听大音量音乐的习惯对听力有害。世界卫生组织称，超过10亿的年轻人在听力方面存在问题，因为他们长时间大声聆听。联合国有安全聆听标准。听八十小时大于85分贝或15分钟大声100分钟的声音是不安全的。长时间聆听大声的声音可能会使这些细胞工作太猛，并使其中一些细胞死亡。这就是人们听力损失的原因。

（1）判断正误题。根据 It is not safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 85 dB （分贝） for eight hours or 100 dB for 15 minutes. 可知挺高于85分贝八个小时或者100分贝15分钟是不安全的。故答案为错误。

（2）判断正误题。根据 However, listening to loud noise for a long time can make these cells work too hard and cause some of them to die. 可知听大声的噪音很长时间能使这些耳毛细胞工作太猛，造成一些耳毛细胞死亡，故答案为正确。

（3）判断正误题。根据 if you are in a noisy place like the subway, you might turn up your music too loud without realizing it. 可知如果你在像地铁这样吵闹的地方，你可能无意识的把声音调到太大，可知第四段告诉我们人们不总是能意识到他们的音乐有多大声，故答案为正确。

（4）判断正误题。根据 Over—the—ear headphones （头戴式耳机） are better than in—ear ones. They do a better job of stopping outside noise, so you can listen at a lower volume. 可知头戴式耳机比置入式耳机更好，故答案为错误。

（5）判断正误题。通读全文可知大意是：听大声的音乐对听力有害，不是讲耳朵是人体重要的组成部分，故答案为错误。

【点评】考查阅读理解能力，首先通读全文，掌握大意，然后根据细节判断所给句子的正确，注意要找到依据。

15．阅读理解

The human body is a machine that can raise lots of interesting questions. Why, for example, are yawns （呵欠） contagious （传染的）? What's up with ice-cream headaches? Here are answers to these and other questions about our bodies. Why do I get a headache when I eat ice cream too quickly?

Scientists aren't exactly sure what causes the brain freeze when we eat ice cream or other super cold foods too quickly, though some believe it's the result of changed blood .flow in the nervous system. Blood vessels in the head tighten to stop the loss of body heat and then relax to let blood flow rise; that sudden rush of blood is what causes the headache. You can improve an ice-cream headache by rapidly rubbing your tongue across the roof of your mouth to help warm up things.

What causes my stomach to make a low continuous noise when I'm hungry?

Actually, your stomach makes noise whether you're hungry or full; you just hear it more clearly when you're hungry. Think of your digestive tract（消化道）as a really long tube lined with smooth muscle tissue. These muscles move food, fluids and gas through your digestive tract. ___________. It can make you feel embarrassed（尴尬的）but is nothing to worry about. Why do I blush when I'm embarrassed?

When you're embarrassed, your brain releases a shot of adrenaline（肾上腺素）, which makes your heart race and blood vessels become larger in size. All this happens to increase blood flow and oxygen delivery throughout the body in a fight-or-flight reaction（对抗反应）. There are a lot of tiny blood vessels in your face, which turn noticeably redder from this sudden rush of blood. As for the actual function of blushing, researchers are still trying to find that one out. Why are yawns contagious?

Have you ever yawned in front of someone, only to have them yawn right back? It's a common thing, but researchers don't have a good explanation for it. They do, however, know this happens only with humans and chimpanzees（黑猩猩）. A bigger question puzzling scientists is why we yawn at all. It used to be thought that yawning showed that oxygen to the brain was not enough, but that's just a myth. A growing body of research now shows that yawning is nature's way of keeping our brains cool.

（1）What is the meaning of the underlined word tighten?

A. 变松 B. 变紧 C. 变短 D. 变长 （2）Which of the following sentences can be filled in the blank? A. And that's what you're hearing when your stomach makes noise. B. And that's why you're so hungry when your stomach is empty C. And that's what makes you feel uncomfortable when you're full. D. And that's how it makes a difference to your digestive tract. （3）Which of the following statements is TRUE? A. There is no way for you to improve an ice-cream headache. B. Researchers have found out the actual function of blushing. C. Your stomach makes noise only when you are hungry.

D. Researchers don't have a good explanation for why yawns are contagious. （4）What is the best title of the passage? A. Some Interesting Facts B. Our Strange Body C. Some Useful Discoveries D. Our Amazing Feelings 【答案】 （1）B （2）A （3）D （4）B

【解析】【分析】文章大意：本文主要介绍提供一些问题和答案来说明人体是一台能提出许多有趣问题的机器。

（1）词义猜测题。根据 Blood vessels in the head tighten to stop the loss of body heat and then relax to let blood flow rise; that sudden rush of blood is what causes the headache然后放松，让血液流动起来；这种突然的血液流动是导致头痛的原因。你可以通过快速地将舌头摩擦到口腔顶部来帮助热身来改善冰淇淋头痛。由relax，放松，动词，可知放松让血液流动，推知阻止血液流动的应该是变紧，因此tighten的意思是变紧，故选B。

（2）细节理解题。根据上文These muscles move food, fluids and gas through your digestive tract. 把你的消化道想象成一条很长的管道，内衬着平滑肌组织。这些肌肉通过消化道输送食物、液体和气体。可已推知这些肌肉通过消化道输送食物、液体和气体。就会在胃里产生声音。故选A。

（3）判断正误题。根据You can improve an ice-cream headache by rapidly rubbing your tongue across the roof of your mouth to help warm up things.你可以通过快速地将舌头摩擦到口腔顶部来帮助热身来改善冰淇淋头痛。可知选项A不符合文章内容，故排除A；As for the actual function of blushing, researchers are still trying to find that one out.至于脸红的实际作用，研究人员仍在努力找出其中之一。可知选项B不符合文章内容，故排除B； you just hear it more clearly when you're hungry. 当你饿了的时候，你只会更清楚地听到声音。可知选项C不符合文章内容，故排除C；It's a common thing, but researchers don't have a good explanation for it. 这是一件很平常的事情，但研究人员对此没有很好的解释。可知选项D符合文章内容，故选D。

18．阅读理解

Last weekend, I took Lucy to a park, where she discovered a track with large bumps（凸块）and sharp tums. At first, I thought Lucy was able to ride her bike along the track, but she quickly found that her bike was too low to the ground and kept getting stuck on top of the bump. Lucy looked at me with fear because she was still a biking newbie. I tried to encourage her too, but really, I was thinking﹣this is going to be a disaster. Not because I thought she would get hurt. More because I thought she wouldn't be able to pick up enough speed to balance, then get really discouraged, and give up quickly. I imagined her throwing her bicycle to the ground and then crying all the way home.

But I was only half right. Lucy did have a lot of trouble riding the bike. She couldn't find her balance. She fell many times. At one point, she almost started crying because younger kids were getting angry that she was slowing everyone else down. But she did not give up. She kept picking herself up and trying again. She even took the bike off the track and into the main park to practice pushing off and picking up speed on a flat ground. When she felt more confident, she came back. Then she did it over and over again until she finally reached her goal of going around the whole track without falling once. Then she didn't want to leave and everyone was cheering her on.

This was not a day that ended in a disaster. It was a day when Lucy learned that perseverance pays off.

（1）Why was Lucy taken to the park last weekend？

A. TO play other kids. B. To discover a track for fun. C. To find her speed was too slow. D. To ride her bike along the track. （2）What does the underlined sentence probably mean in Paragraph 2？ A. Lucy would get hurt and cry all the way home. B. Lucy would fear to ride the bike and get discouraged. C. Lucy would lose balance and slow the younger kids down. D. Lucy would have trouble riding the bike and give up soon. （3）What did Lucy take the bike into the main park for ? A. Being cheered on by everyone. B. Getting practice in an easier way. C. Feeling more confident and coming back. D. Reaching her goal of riding the bike at once. （4）Which one is the right order of the events? a. Lucy fell and got up lots of times. b.

19．阅读理解

Students in Kenya are returning for their third term. They begin their school year in January and it is broken up into three terms. In Kenya, in the past, students were not required to attend school and the education was not free, either.

I taught math, English and physics at Chamasiri Secondary School while I was a teacher in Kenya. This school had four classrooms ﹣one for each grade, Form 1, Form 2, Form 3 and Form 4. They are the equivalent（对等） to our 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th grades. Teachers traveled from classroom to classroom instead of the students going from room to room. The Form I class had 60 students, Form 2 had 45, Form 3 had 30, and Form 4 about 12 students. The class sizes became smaller as the grades continued on. Why did this happn? Many families were very poor and could not afford the school fees（学费）.

Most countryside schools in Kenya did not have a lot of money. As a result, there were very few textbooks for the students to use. I had seven math texts for my Form 2 class and 14 for the Form I class. Anything the students needed to know was put up on the blackboard and the students copied it down into their notebooks. The notebooks became the students' textbooks.

Kenyan students study ten different subject areas. Some of the students spend over an hour running home. They do chores at home and hopefully manage to find some time to study before it gets dark. Most families do not have electricity and may not even have candies for their children to study by.

Luckily, Kenyan education has been becoming better and better in the past few years. I'm sure it will have a good future.

（1）Which grade does Form 3 refer to（指的是） in the writer's country？ A. Grade 9. B. Grade 10. C. Grade 11. D. Grade 12. （2）Why did the notebooks become the students' textbooks？ A. The students did not pay the schools. B. The schools couldn't afford the textbooks. C. The students preferred to use their notebook. D. The teachers asked the students to take notes.

（3）Why do some students run home from school？ A. They aren't allowed to stay at school. B. They don't like studying in the school. C. They hope to have more time to study. D. They want to get candles in the stores.

（4）According to the passage, which of the following is NOT TRUE？ A. In Kenya, a school year has three terms. B. The Form I class had the most students. C. Each family has electricity in Kenya. D. Kenyan education has been improving. 【答案】 （1）C （2）B （3）C （4）C
