He was famous because of the books he wrote for children. They combine funny words, pictures, and social opinion.Dr Seuss wrote his first book for children in 1937. It is called And to Think I Saw It on Mulberry Street. A number of publishers refused to publish it. They said it was too different. A friend finally published it. Soon other successful books followed. Over the years, he wrote more than forty children’s books. They were fun to read. Yet his books sometimes dealt with serious subjects.By the middle 1940s, Dr Seuss had become one of the best-loved and most successful writers of children’s books. He had a strong desire to help children. In 1954, Life magazine published a report about school children who could not read. The report said many children’s books weren’t interesting. Dr Seuss decided to write books that were interesting and easy to read.In 1957, Dr Seuss wrote The Cat in the Hat. He used less than 225 words to write the book. This was about the number of words a six-year-old should be able to read.The story is about a cat who tries to entertain two children on a rainy day while their mother is away from home. The cat is not like normal cats. It talks. The book was an immediate success. It was an interesting story and was easy to read. Children loved it. Their parents loved it, too. Today many adults say it is still one of the stories they like best.61. What’s the best title for this passage?A. Some of Dr Seuss’ books for children.B. What are Dr Seuss’s books mainly about?C. Dr Seuss — a famous writer of children’s books.D. Why are Dr Seuss’ books different?62. What do we know about Dr Seuss’s first book for children?A. It was Dr Seuss’ worst book.B. It dealt with a very serious subject.C. Neither children nor adults like it.D. Many publishers didn’t take it seriously at first.63. How did Dr Seuss help children according to Paragraph 3?A. By asking others to help them in magazines.B. By writing interesting and simple books.C. By changing his old books into simpler ones.D. By giving them books for free.64. Adults most probably think that Dr Seuss’The Cat in the Hat is _________A. interestingB. seriousC. difficultD. boringBIt feels like every time my mother and I start to have a conversation, it turns into an argument. We talk about something as simple as dinner plans and suddenly, my mother will push the conversation into World War III. She’ll talk about my lack of a bright future because I don’t plan to be a doctor. And much to her disappointment, I don’t want to do any job related to science, either. In fact, when I was pushed to say that I planned to major(主修) in English and communications, she nearly had a heart attack.“Why can’t you be like my co-worker’s son?” she bemoans all the time. Herco-worker’s son received a four-year scholarship and is now earning 70,000 dollars a year as an engineer. I don’t know what to answer except that I simply can’t be like Mr. Perfect as I’ve called the unnamed co-worker’s son. I can’t be like him. I’m the type of person who loves to help out in the community, write until the sun goes down, and most of all, wants to achieve a career because I love it, not because of fame (名声) or salary.I understand why my mother is worried about my future major. I’ve seen my mother struggle to raise me on her small salary and work long hours. She leaves the house around 6:30 am and usually comes home around 5 pm or even 6 pm. However, I want her to know that by becoming a doctor, it doesn’t mean I’ll be successful. I’d rather follow my dreams and create my own future.65. Which of the following topics do the writer and his mother often talk about?A. The writer’s studies.B. The writer’s future jobC. Dinner plansD. Wars around the world66. We can infer from Paragraph 1 that the writer’s mother ____________.A. doesn’t want the writer to major in EnglishB. doesn’t think the writer should be a doctorC. gets along very well with the writerD. doesn’t think working in the science field is a good idea67. The underlined word “bemoans”in Paragraph 2 most probably means _____________.A. agreesB. shoutsC. complainsD. smiles68. Which of following statements is probable TRUE about the writer?A. He wants to be like his mother’s co-worker’s son.B. He wants to find a job in his community in the future.C. He doesn’t think his mother’s co-worker’s son is perfect.D. He wants to do something he really likes in the future.CI have a neighbor we call “Happy”. I have never seen her angry at anything and never heard her say a harsh (苛刻) word to anyone or about anyone.Happy and her husband Ben, 70, have a huge garden. They spent many happy hours together working on it. Most of the neighbors watched interestingly as Ben doubled the size of their garden. As the cost of food climbed faster than Ben’s beans, we all wished we also had such a large garden. As the rest of us spent our dollars at the market, Happy could be seen picking beans in her back yard.Last month, Happy and Ben invited most of the neighborhood over for an “all-day food fest”. We were told to bring gloves and arrive very early in the morning. We didn’t know what was about to take place.By 9:00 am, there were nine of us in the garden picking tomatoes, beans, okra, and squash. By 10:00 am, there was lots of laughter. We shared a lot of stories. By five o’clock, everyone was a little drunk from the wine and beer. After dinner, we played games. As we were leaving, Happy and Ben handed each of us a shopping bag filled with the bounty（收成）of the day, already packaged and frozen. What a delightful gift!Well, the point wasn’t so much about the food. The true gift was a day of friends enjoying one another’s company. None of it would have happened if it had been for Happy and Ben’s garden. Now they have a blog about gardening in case we decided to plant a garden. And I am so proud of my tomato plants!69. We can infer that Happy and her husband Ben_______.A. don’t like spending time with othersB. sometimes quarrel with each otherC. live on the food they grow in their gardenD. are a generous and warm-hearted couple70. According to paragraph 2, people wish they also had a garden so that_______.A. they didn’t have to spend so much money on foodB. they could grow vegetables and sell at the marketC. they could invite their neighbors and hold parties in itD. they could spend happy times together with their family in it71. For what purpose did Happy and Ben invite the neighbors to their garden?A. To ask them to attend a birthday partyB. To help them get to know each other.C. To let them enjoy what they grew in the garden.D. To ask them to share some interesting stories.72. What did the writer most probably think of the time he spent in the garden?A. It was too longB. It was wonderful.C. It was not as good as he thought.D. It was too terrible.DEverybody is afraid of something. That’s what more than 1,700 kids told us when we asked them about fears and scary stuff. We gave kids a list of 14 scary things and asked which one frightened them most. Here are the top 5 answers from our survey (调查): ①Scary movies and TV shows; ②Scary dreams; ③Thunderstorms, hurricanes (飓风), and other horrible weather; ④War and terrorism (恐怖行动); ⑤Sounds heard at night.But not everyone is afraid of the same thing. And what makes one person scared can be of no big deal for someone else. Plenty of kids said their biggest fear wasn’t on our list.What is fear?Fear is a feeling that everyone has —it’s pr ogrammed into all of us — and that’s a good thing because fear is there to protect us. We’re born with a sense of fear so we can react to something that could be dangerous. The baby cries, and their mom comes over to comfort him or her, helping the baby feel safe and OK again. Real vs. PretendThe best way to get over a fear is to get more information about it. As kids get older, they understand more and start seeing the difference between what is real and unreal. So when William’s imagination leads him to think of witches, he can tell himself, “Wait a minute. They’re only pretend things. I don’t need to worry about them.”The same goes for the dark. A kid’s imagination can start playing tricks when the lights go out. What’s under my bed? Is that a thief I hear? With the help of a parent, kids can get more comfortable in the dark. Using a nightlight or shining a flashlight under the bed to see that there’s nothing there can help kids fight that fear.73. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A. The list of fears is not complete.B. The things people fear are ofno big fear.C. Kids have more fears than people think.D. People are afraid of different things.74. In the writer’s opinion, ___________.A. having a sense of fear is not a bad thingB. babies have a weak sense of fearC. fear is not something that we are born withD. not all people can react to dangerous things75. What does the underlined word “pretend” in paragraph 4 mean?A. UglyB. UsualC. UnrealD. Lovely第Ⅱ卷非选择题（两部分，共30分）第四部分：单词拼写（共8小题；每小题1分，满分10分）第一节根据首字母提示写出句中所缺单词。
