My parents taught me not to waste food. My mom always found ways to make leftovers (剩余食物) taste good. I went to Ilan to learn about some of their special foods. As I was there, I learned about the food and the history of the area. I learned that they don’t waste food, either, and they use leftovers!
Many years ago, there was not enough food for everyone. People learned to cook and eat almost everything. They had to think of ways to make special dishes. One of these dishes is kao zha. It’s made with leftovers like meat, soup, oil and fat. That might not sound very good, but it does taste good. Today, kao zha is a special dish at big banquets (宴会).
Another famous dish is called zao bing. It’s made with fruit, meat and other things. I really liked it! But I didn’t want to eat too much. It has a lot of fat in it.
I smelled something burning and I saw smoke, so I found another special food of the Ilan area─duck meat. The duck meat is put in a big oven (炉子) to cook it. Smoke keeps the meat fresh. I don’t usually eat meat, but this duck meat was delicious! It tasted sweet.
Ilan is a great place with delicious food. I hope I can come back again! ( )56. The writer learns from her parents __________.

I heard the bees(蜜蜂) long before I saw them.
It was a very hot afternoon, and we decided to cool off in the river near my home. As we climbed down a small rocky hill toward the water, my boyfriend John suddenly started to shout then jumped into the water below. Peter and Mary quickly followed but I was too far away to jump. I was trapped.
I heard a low hum(嗡嗡声)，which was growing louder. From a distance, the group of bees looked almost like a cloud of smoke. As it got closer, I realized it was actually thousands of bees flying towards me.
All I could do was cover my face with hands. Crazily, I thought that if I sat very still, the bees would think I was just another rock.
After a few minutes, I knew my plan hadn’t worked. The bees were attacking(攻击) me. I could hear my friends shouting at me to get down to the pool fast.
But it wasn’t so easy. I was in great pain and the only way I could get away was to use my hands to climb down the rocks. However, I was afraid to do that at first because my face would be unprotected. The noise the bees made was so loud and frightening, but I had no choice.
I rushed down the rocks and jumped into the pool, but I don’t remember doing it. I was just so happy to be free from the pain. I was safe, and the water felt wonderful.
But we still weren’t out of danger. Every time we tried to climb out of the pool, the bees flew back over our heads. We spent the next three hours in the water, putting our heads under the water from time to time to avoid(躲开) the bees until they finally lost interest. 66. How many people went swimming that day?
A. Two.
B. Three
C. Four
D. Five
67. The underlined word ―it‖ (in Paragraph 3) refers to . A. a rock
B. the group of bees C. a hill

68. At first why didn’t the writer want to climb down the rocks?
A. She was afraid she would fall. B. She was too far away from pool. C. She thought the bees would follow her. D. She didn’t want her face to be unprotected. 69. How did the writer escape(逃脱) the bees?
A. She covered her face with her hands. B. She hid behind the rocks. C. She jumped into a water pool. D. She pretended to be a rock.
70. In what order are the following mentioned in the story?

Want to stay away from colds? Put on a happy face.
Compared (与---相比）to unhappy people, those who are cheerful and relaxed are less likely to suffer from (遭受---之苦) colds, according to a new study. It’s possible that being happy helps the body fight illnesses, say the researchers from New York University.
―It seems that positive（积极的）feelings may reduce the danger of illness,‖ said the study’s chief researcher Sheldon Cohen.
In an earlier study, Cohen found that people who were cheerful and lively caught coughs and colds less often. People who showed positive feelings were also less likely to tell their doctors that they felt ill.
In this study, Cohen’s team interviewed 193 adults every day for two weeks. During the interviews, the people told researchers about the happy or sad feelings they had that day.
After the two weeks, the people were given colds by doctors and had to stay alone in a room for six days.
The results showed that everyone in the study was equally likely to get ill. Buy for people who said they felt happy during the research period, their illness are less serious and lasted for a shorter time.
Cohen believes that when people experience positive feelings, their body may produce a chemical(化学的) that helps fight illness and disease. So if you are worried abut your health, look on the bright side more often.
71. Which of the following was NOT a part of the study? A. People talked about their feelings every day. B. People were kept alone for six days. C. People were given colds by doctors. D. People were made to feel unhappy. 72. What did the study find?
A. People who felt happy never got ill.
B. People’s feelings didn’t influence their health. C. People with good feelings became ill more easily.
D. People with positive feelings had less serious illnesses..
73. According to Cohen, which of the following may help fight illness? A. Eating.
B. Crying.
C. Laughing.
D. Sleeping.
74. This passage is a/an . A. advertisement C. story
B. newspaper report D. scientist’s diary
75. What is the best title for this passage? A. Smiles can fight colds C. The danger of colds
B. Cause (原因)of colds found D. How people get sick

Hello, students. Your history teacher asked me to tell you about what life was like when I was a girl. Well, I was born in 1915, so I’m a very old lady now. When I was a girl, I lived on a farm with my parents and my brother. I didn’t have any sisters. We used to grow most of our food on the farm. Now I live in an flat in the city, so I have to buy food at the supermarket, but it doesn’t
taste as good as it used to. My mother used to make all my clothes and today I still make most of my clothes; I don’t like to buy them. Mother had lots of time because my father traveled to Europe and Africa. I used to write long letters to him. Today, I send e-mails to my grandchildren because I don’t see them very often. I think family life was better in the past when families lived near each other. I got married in New York when I was 21. My husband and I went across the Atlantic Ocean by boat. It took us seven days. Now you can fly on a plane and it only takes six hours. I used to travel often, but now I’m in poor health so I don’t travel anymore. But I still like to read about travel. My grandchildren bought me a computer so I can search for interesting places. I used to read books and dream of going to China, but now I can see wonderful pictures on the Internet. That’s so exciting!
