A year later, when the marigold came out, she chose the faintest (最暗淡的) one from those golden and brown flowers and got the best see

My wife and I arrived on Saturday, 15thMay and stayed for a week. Though we were treated well and found the service excellent, we think there

30、 are one or two matters we should bring your attention.1. We had hoped for a nice holiday from our busy work lives, and your advertisement said “comfortable and quiet”. We want to have a chance to enjoy ourselves. However, we were always waken up by the noise every morning. Is it really necessary fo

31、r the workers to start their repair work so early?2. We had hoped to swim in your “wonderful pool”. To our disappointment(失望), we found that it was closed for the whole time of our stay.I hope you do not mind my writing to you about these things, but I would be happy if you could give me some explan

In America, at the begi

36、nning of the term, students must select their subjects and teachers first. Selecting is very important for your marks in America. So at the first term, dont select too many subjects, or youll feel very nervous and tired. Then you have to ask for some teaching plans. There is some information about s

37、ubjects, time arranging, marks and textbooks. At the same time, you must choose the teachers. Different teachers have different teaching methods. If the teacher is called killer by the last grade, many students will give up choosing him, because this kind of teacher will leave too much homework, too

38、 many exams and give too low grades. There is another thing after you select the subjects and the teachers. How to buy textbooks makes each student feel hard. The textbooks in America are very expensive. Each one is about $30-50. In order to save money, many students buy some used textbooks, and som

39、e students usually borrow textbooks from the school library. In class, discussing is very important. The teacher encourages you to ask questions or show your own opinions. They dont usually ask you to sit well. Instead they allow you to sit or stand everywhere you like.1What does the underline word

40、“select” mean?AChooseBLikeCTreatDTake2According to the text, American students _.Adont have to ask for teaching plansBdont have to choose teachersCwould like to choose strict teachersDusually buy some used textbooks in order to save money3Which of the following is NOT TRUE?AStudents wont choose the

In space, they get to do some pretty amazing things, like floating in zero gravity(重力). However, there are also plenty of things that astronauts cant do because of t

43、heir weightless environment, and thats very sad. Whats worse, they cant even let their sadness show, because its impossible to cry in zero gravity. Of course, astronauts can still produce tears. But crying is much more difficult in space, according to The Atlantic(大西洋月刊) in January. Without gravity,

44、 tears dont flow(流動(dòng)) down out of the eyes like they do here on Earth. This means that when you cry in space, your tears have nowhere to go-they just stick(粘) to your eyes. In May 2011, astronaut Andrew Feustel experienced this during one of his spacewalks. Tears, he said, dont fall off of your eyes.

45、They just kind of stay there. Besides making your vision(視線)unclear, this can also cause physical pain. Back on Earth, tears are supposed to bring comfort to the eyes. But thats not the case in space. The space environment dries out astronauts eyes, and when tears suddenly wet the eyes, it can cause

46、 pain rather than comfort. My right eye is stinging(刺痛) like crazy, Feustel told his teammate during the walk. Since gravity doesnt work in space, astronauts need some extra help to get rid of（除去） the tears. Feustel chose to rub his eyes against his helmet to wipe(擦) the tears away. Another choice i

47、s to just wait-When the tears get big enough they simply break free of the eyes and float around, astronaut Ron Parise told The Atlantic. There are lots of small things-things like crying-that we are so used to on Earth. We usually take them for granted until they become a problem in a totally diffe

48、rent environment, like space. There, astronauts cant talk to each other directly. They also cant eat or drink in normal ways. They cant even burp (打嗝), because there is no gravity to hold the food down in their stomach. If they do burp, they just end up throwing up（嘔吐）everything in their stomach, ac

49、cording to the UK National Space Center. Therefore, perhaps its only space explorers who can honestly say: Gravity, youre the best.1From Paragraphs 2 and 3 , we can know that_.Aastronauts are unable to feel sad in spaceBastronauts produce fewer tears in spaceCtears produced in space flow down more s

50、lowlyDtears produced in space dont flow downward2What effect do tears have on astronauts?AThey cause physical pain.BThey bring comfort to them.CThey make their vision clearer.DThey float around and cause trouble.3The underlined phrase take them for granted in paragraph 7 means _.Afind them important

51、Bconsider them uselessCneed them during an emergencyDfail to notice their presence(存在)4The second-to-last paragraph (paragraph 7) is mainly about_.Asuggestions of how astronauts can stay comfortable in spaceBother basic things that are difficult to do in spaceCwhy burping is impossible in spaceDthin

52、gs human cant do without gravityF18、I guess most of you have had an experience like it: its the weekend, but instead of having a good rest, you have to bury yourself in the endless homework you have left over from the week. This was my routine too. But it came to an end during my schools “No Homewor

53、k Weekend”.The activity was announced two weeks in advance so we could get prepared. Students in my class did not have any homework on the special weekend, but students in other classes were not so lucky. There were also some teachers who told their students: “You dont have homework this weekend, bu

54、t you do have a test next Monday.” This meant: “You dont have to prepare for the test during the weekend, but good luck if you dont!” Well, teachers will be teachers, I suppose.I really made the most of those two days without homework. On Friday night, I stayed up chatting with my friends online bec

55、ause we didnt need to worry about homework. On Saturday, I watched a band concert, and on Sunday I had a god sleep and organized my notes. Normally I have so much regular homework that I do not have time to review and organize class notes. But on that weekend, I finally had time to do it.No Homework Weekend was rally a great time to release stress and take a look at what we had learned so far. I loved it and I hope my school holds more weekends like it in the future!12The writer often _ on weekends.Ahas a good rest Bwatches movies Cprepares for tests Ddoes lots of homework34Accor
