"He was carrying an old pair of trousers and asked the owner of the shop, "How much will you give me for these?" The man looked at them and then said: "Two dollars." 　　"What !" said Tom. "I had guessed they were worth at least five dollars." 　　"No," said the man, "they aren't worth a cent more than two dollars." 　　"Well," said Tom, taking two dollars out of his pocket. "Here's your money. These trousers were hanging outside your shop. The list price (标价)of them was six dollars and a half. But I thought that was too much money, so I wanted to find out how much they were really worth." 　　Then he walked out of the shop with the pair of trousers and disappeared before the shop owner could think of anything to say . ( )51.

If I have a dinner with a Chinese host, he always puts more food onto my plate as soon as I have emptied it. That often discomforts me greatly. I have to eat the food even if I do not want to because it is considered bad manners in the West to leave one’s food on the plate. I have also noticed that when a Chinese sits at an American’s dinner party, he often refuses the offer of food or drink though he’s in fact still hungry or thirsty. This might be good manners in China but is not in the West at all. In the United States, it is impolite to keep asking someone again and again or insist on his accepting something. Americans have a direct way of speaking. If they want something, they will ask for it. If not, they will say, “ No, thanks.” When an American is served with beer by the host, for example, he might say, “ No，thanks. I’ll take some orange juice if you have it.” That is what an American will do. So when you go to the United States, you’d better remember the famous saying: “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” ( ) 56. From this passage we can see that the writer is _____. A. Chinese B. Roman C. American D. European ( ) 57. When a Chinese host kept putting more food onto the plate, the writer felt _____. A. very happy B. sad C. angry D. uncomfortable ( ) 58. In the West, people consider it bad manners _____. A. to refuse an offer B. to keep ask someone to accept something C. to eat much at a dinner party D. to ask for something directly ( ) 59. A guest at an American’s dinner party should show his politeness by _____. A. not eating up all the food offered B. putting more food onto his plate as soon as he emptied it C. refusing the offer of food or drink though he is still hungry or thirsty D. asking for things directly if he wants them ( ) 60. “When in Rome, do as Romans do” means ______. A. the Romans are people of good manners B. Americans always do the same thins as the Romans do C. you should get used to the local（当地的）customs wherever you go D. you should learn to do as Romans when in Rome C To protect the environment, most supermarkets in China will stop providing free plastic bags. If you don't want to pay money to buy them, you'll have to bring your own shopping bag. What kind of bags will be the best to bring? Students in Kunming Xinying Middle School have some good ideas. Recently fifty-four students of the school held an activity in which they made their own environmentally-friendly shopping bags. Most students used old clothes to make their bags. They painted pictures like the Olympic rings on them. But Wang Shuncheng, a Junior 2 boy, chose a different material (材料). He made his bag with old newspaper. Is a newspaper bag strong enough to hold shopping? Wang says it is, "No problem. I put six bottles of water in the bag," he said. "It's strong enough!" Chen Lisi, a girl, had a more traditional way to make her bag– she wove (编织) a bamboo bag. It was not an easy job. With her grandfather's help, Chen spent a whole afternoon making it. She also wove wool (毛线) flowers on the bag. Making bags was not all the students did. They had another job: to persuade their parents and relatives to use environmentally-friendly shopping bags instead of plastic ones. The school will show the bags so that shops and stores can get some ideas from the students' work. ( ) 61. From the passage we know that ________. A. plastic bags have not been used in supermarkets for some time B. plastic bags cannot be bought from most supermarkets C. most supermarkets will stop providing free plastic bags D. people must bring their own bags when they do shopping in supermarkets. ( ) 62. Besides the plastic bags, ________ other kinds of bags are mentioned. A. two B. three C. four D. five ( ) 63. The main purpose of the activity is ________. A. to teach the students how to make more shopping bags B. to get the students to learn to do things by themselves C. to give the students an environmental protection lesson D. to get their parents and relatives to use environmentally-friendly shopping bags ( ) 64. The underlined word “persuade” in the last paragraph probably means ________. A.劝说 B.指导 C.命令 D.监督 ( ) 65. The school will show the bags in order to ________. A. encourage the students B. make some money C. get some work for the students D. give some ideas to shops and stores 非选择题（共40分） 五、听力（共5小题，计分5分） 请听一段独白，然后根据所听完成第66-70小题。在每小题句子空白处填写适当的词语，使句子意思与所听内容一致。 66.

The tank is made of clear glass. People can look through it. They can see inside the tank and watch the fish. The fish need room. They must not be crowded. Fish need oxygen（氧气）to breathe. Fish get it from water in the tank. There must be enough water for all fish. So the size of the tank is important. In the tank many people put small plants that are good for fish. They give oxygen to the water. Plants help in other ways, too. Fish can nibble（一点点地吃）on the plants. They hide among the plants and sleep, lay eggs there. The plants need light. Most fish need light, too. The tank may be put near a window. It will get light there. Another place might be better, though. A window may let cold air in. The water in the tank may get too cold. The fish may die because cold water can kill them. So can hot water. The temperature must be just right. The fish must be kept in water all the time. Some fish can jump high. They may jump out of the tank. The tank should be covered. This keeps the fish from jumping out. The fish need food and they should be fed every day. Giving them too much food is bad. The extra food will fall to the bottom and make the water dirty. However, the fish should get just enough food. They should finish the food in 10 minutes. Nothing should be left. When this happens, the amount（数量）of food is right. 81. The size of the tank to keep fish is important because the fish need enough _______________ and enough ________________. 82.
