We know that about 25% of our 26 time is spent dreaming. This is true for everyone, whether you are the kind of person who ordinarily remembers your dreams or not. Often our dreams show us “the other sid e of the picture”,27 us aware of the things we have failed to take conscious 28 of during the day. For instance, if you dream that your new boss, who seems gruff (语言粗暴的) and unfriendly during the working hours, is smiling at you and 29 you for your work, perhaps you have subliminally (下意识地) 30 up signals that day that his bark is worse than his bite.All of us need dreams, and the 31 we are, the more necessary they appear to be. Babies spend 32 half their sleep in the dreaming phase. When adult subjects in an experiment were given drugs that eliminated（排除）their 33 for several nights, they became increasingly irritable（易怒的）and 34 , and often began having difficulty concentrating. Too much dreaming appears to have its drawbacks too. If you doze late on Sunday mornings, you often wake up feeling tired. The 35 is that the more you sleep, the longer your dreams become.26. A. playing B. working C. sleeping D. resting27. A. taking B. going C. bringing D. making28. A. charge B. interest C. notice D. care29. A. praising B. blaming C. criticizing D. celebrating30. A. put B. picked C. looked D. took31. A. bigger B. smaller C. older D. younger32. A. rarely B. hardly C. nearly D. mostly33. A. dreaming B. thinking C. acting D. supporting34. A. anxious B. cheerful C. careful D. enthusiastic35. A. cause B. reason C. excuse D. explanation四、阅读理解（每小题2分，共40分）Passage 1Do you think your schoolwork is too hard? Do you feel you have too much homework? If you answer “yes”, you are in the same boat as most US kids. However, school life for them is about to get even harder.A group of 13 states have decided to make their schools’workload( 工作量) much heavier, especially in maths and English. Most students in US high school work very hard. But it’s not like in China, where almost all students have to work form early morning till late in the evening.US students have a lot of freedom to decide how hard they should work. “Most students put in a lot of effort (努力), but some do almost nothing,”said Will Gordon, a teacher from North Carolina. “I think stricter rules will help thosestudents who aren’t so focused( 集中精神的).”“For the most part, it’s good,” said Adam Jorve, 15, a student at Gordon’s school. “A lot of kids in public schools can hardly read when they graduate. However, for me, I wish I didn’t have the extra work.”36 From the first passage we know that most US kids ____.A. have a pleasant school lifeB. often go boating togetherC. have hard schoolworkD. pay little attention to their schoolwork37 Compared with Chinese students, kids in the US ____.A. have a much heavier workloadB. don’t have to work from morning till nightC. spend more time on maths and EnglishD. have no time to relax themselves38.

So they can't learn it well. But English is very easy for me. I'm good at it. I'm very glad to tell you something about how I study English.First, I think an interest in English is very important. When I was in Grade One, we had a new subject - English. It was fresh for me . I was interested in it, so I worked hard at it. Soon we had an English exam and I got a very good mark. How happy I was! After that, I learned English harder and harder. Our English teacher often teaches us English songs, the songs sound nice. I often think how interesting English is!Second, I think English is a foreign language. I should learn it well in the following ways: Listen to the teacher carefully, speak bravely, read aloud and have a good vocabulary (词汇). Then practice again and again, never be tired. And I also have a good habit: Asking whenever I have a question, I must make it clear by asking our English teacher. How happy I am when I understand!Besides this, I often read English stories, jokes and easy novels. From these I know English is not only interesting, but also useful. They help me understand a lot of things. So to do more reading is an important way to learn English well.And I also do some exercises from our class magazines, and I often write English diaries. English has become a close friend of mine.Now I have learned English for more than two years. I always keep the first position in our school. From these words, I hope every student can learn English well.41. Why do some students often "have a headache"?A. Because they are easy to catch cold.B. Because it's often very coldC.

London, the capital of the United Kingdom, is the biggest city in Western Europe with over 7 million people. It sits by the River Thames. London has a history of more than 2000 years. Because all over the world are familiar with the city's red double-decker (双层的) buses and black taxis.PeopleThe British Empire used to rule around the world, so many people from around the world moved to London. They have brought with them their own languages and cultures. More than 300 different languages are spoken in London.CultureLondon is known for its museums. One important museum is British Museum. It is the oldest public museum in the world. There are two main art museums in London: the National Gallery and the Tate Gallery. Besides, London is also home to arts, such as theatre and music. The Globe Theatre, which was popular in the late 16th and 17th centuries, was opened for performances of William Shakespeare's central London.Tourist attractionsLondon has many wonderful places to visit. For example, the well-known Clock Tower, a 320-foot-high tower, was called the Big Ben. Another famous London building is Buckingham Palace. The members of royal (皇家的) family of England live there. Besides, Hyde Park is the largest open area in central London.46. What's the population of London?A. Less than 7 million.B. Only 7 million.C. More than 7 million.D. Nearly 7 million.47.

London is the biggest city in EuropePassage 4The world is not hungry, but it is thirsty . It seems strange that nearly 3/4 of the earth is covered with water while we say we are short of water. Why? Because about 97% of water on the earth is sea water which we can't drink or use for watering plants directly. Man can only drink and use the 3% - the water that comes from rivers and lakes. And we can't even use all of that, because some of it has been polluted .Now more water is needed. The problem is: Can we avoid a serious water shortage later on? First, we should all learn how to save water. Secondly, we should find out the ways to reuse it . Scientists have always been making studies in the field. Today, in most large cities water is used only once and then runs to the sea or rivers . But it can be used again. Even if every large city reused its water, still there would not be enough. What could people turn to next?The sea seems to have the best answer. There is a lot of water in the sea. All that needs to be done is to get the salt out of the sea water. This is expensive, but it's already used in many parts of the world. Scientists are trying to find a cheaper way of doing it. So you see, if we can find a way out, we'll be in no danger of drying up.51 .The world is thirsty because ____.A. 3/4 of the earth is covered with waterB. we have enough sea water to use directlyC. we haven't used all the water in rivers and lakesD. about 97% of water on the earth can't be drunk or used for watering plants directly52.

To avoid the serious water shortage , which of the following is the most important?A. Save water and try to make good use of the water in rivers and lakes.B. Don't pollute water and keep all rivers and lakes clean.C. Make dirty water clean and then reuse it.D. Try to find a cheaper way to get the salt out of the sea water.55.
