It is a day when children give their mothers cards, presents and flowers. One of the best ways to celebrate Mothers Day is to give your mother a day off. Let her have a good rest while other members of the family do the housework. Many families begin Mothers Day with the breakfast in bed. Usually dad and the children will let mum sleep late as they go into the kitchen and get ready for her favorite meal. A Mothers Day breakfast can be anything your mum likes. After the food is cooked, keep everything nicely on a plate. Dont forget to put a flower in the bottle. With spring here, the children can pick up the nicest flower from the garden outside. When everything is ready, carefully carry the plate and mums favorite books or newspapers up to her bedroom. Cards and small presents from the children can be put on the plate before they are given to mum in bed. Many families take mum out to her favorite restaurant for a meal. It is a good way to let your mum rest and let her see what a happy family she has!（1）Mothers Day is on May 2nd. （2）Children give their fathers presents before breakfast on Mothers Day. （3）We can let mum have a good rest on Mothers Day. （4）Children put all kinds of flowers into a bottle for mum. （5）Its a wonderful day to let mum see what a good family she has. 24. （5分）任務(wù)型閱讀你最喜歡什么顏色？Do you like yellow, orange and red? You do, you must be a person full of hopeful happy feeling about life. Do you like gray and blue? Then maybe you are quiet, and you would rather go after than go before. And sometimes you feel unhappy. If you love green, you are strong-minded. You wish to do everything well and want other people to see you are successful. (2) A _ They tell us that we dont choose our favorite colour as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly. (2) B _ A yellow room makes us feel happier and more comfortable than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and gladness to the saddest winter day. (3)Light and bright colours make people not only happier but more active. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have few accidents when their machines are painted(漆)orange rather than black or dark gray. Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or a new colourful thing. Remember also that you will know your friends better when you find out what colours they like or dislike. And dont forget that anyone can guess a lot about your character( 性格)when you choose something in different colours.（1）將劃線部分譯成英語(yǔ)：_（2）把下面的選項(xiàng)放在合適的位置。_ (A./B)At least this is what psychologists(心理學(xué)者)tell us.（3）將劃線部分譯成漢語(yǔ)：_. （4）What can you do when you feel unhappy?_（5）在空白處填入一個(gè)適當(dāng)?shù)脑~語(yǔ)。From the reading we know that _ has a concern with feelings and character四、 任務(wù)型閱讀 (共1題；共25分)25. （25分）根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容, 回答問(wèn)題。Knowing about yourself means not only that you find out what youre good at and what you like, it also means discovering what youre not good at and what you dont like. They both help you to see your aims(目標(biāo)) in life.Although most students would be unhappy if they found that they had failed a very difficult physics course，they have in fact learned a lot about themselves. They know that they should not become engineers or physical scientists. So failing can help a student to live a much happier life if he or she draws something out of the failing. They may then decide on their aims and choose the kind of work they would be fit for and they would like to do.It is impossible to decide whether or not you like something until you have tried it. If you decide that you would like to play the piano，you need to take more than one lesson before you can know whether you are really interested in it or you are able to do it well.It is not enough to want to be a great pianist. You also have to like the hard practice and long training before you become one. If you would enjoy being a great pianist but hate the work, forget it.Its a good plan to try as many ideas as possible when you are still young. And then you will be able to find out what your true interests are.（1）Is it possible to decide what you like without trying? （2）To decide what to do in the future, which is more important, to find out what you like or to find out what you dont like? （3）In which way is failing important to people? （4）How can you find out your true interests? （5）What does it take to become a great pianist? 五、 短文填空 (共1題；共10分)26. （10分）閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)文章大意用所給單詞的適當(dāng)形式填空(未提供單詞的，限填一詞)，使文章意思完整、正確，并將答案寫(xiě)在相應(yīng)位置。 Each day in the United States, one person uses about 575 litres (公升) of water.
