（8分）Fires are always dangerous，especially when they happen at home.According to some surveys，kitchens are the places where the fires usually happen.Everyone should remember these suggestions about preventing a kitchen fire.
★Don't leave cooking food without being watched.If you're cooking food，you must stay in the kitchen.If you need to leave the kitchen，turn off the gas burner first.It's a good idea to have a timer which can make a sound when a certain amount of time has passed.In this way you can check the food regularly.
★Always watch what you're cooking.Many fires happen because of cooking at too high temperatures.You should always keep an eye on your food.You must turn off the gas burner if you see smoke or oil boiling.
★Don't wear long loose sleeves （宽松袖子） while cooking.Loose clothing may cause some accidents.For example，loose sleeves can easily touch open fires.You can choose to wear close fitting clothing.Besides，long hair can also cause accidents.If you have long hair，be sure to tie it up when you are cooking.
★Keep any flammable objects away from a stove （厨房灶具） or a gas burner（燃烧器）.It's common to set a towel（毛巾） next to the stove and forget about it.If objects like towels get too close to a stove or a gas burner，they will catch fire easily.You must keep those objects away and put them in right places.
★Keep children away from the cooking area.Make a rule that they must stay at least 3 feet away from the cooking area，or any area where you are preparing hot food and drink.
★Check smoke detectors（探测器） often.Make sure you have smoke detectors on all floors of your home.You should have a smoke detector either inside or just outside of your kitchen.You should check your smoke detectors often to make sure they are working fine.

Poems from Tang and Song dynasties，operas from Yuan dynasty，and novels from Ming and Qing dynasties are very famous in China's history.Today，I'd like to recommend Song of Autumn，one of the poems by Liu Yuxi （772﹣842），a famous poet and writer in the mid Tang dynasty.
Just as shown in the first line of the poem，most ancient poets liked to describe autumn as a sad time，but in this poem the season appears differently.In Liu's eyes，autumn，full of life and hope，is even better than spring morning.He describes the bright scene of a crane riding the clouds and flying into the blue sky.
With his poems paying special attention to expressing personal feelings，as well as the daily life of common people，Liu wrote poems with beautiful music﹣like words.You may feel it in this poem.Though being translated thoughtfully by experienced Xu Yuanchong，the poem still reads not so beautifully as that in Chinese.I personally think that English is sometimes not so powerful as Chinese.
Here is another example，in Liu's essay An Eulogium on a Humble Cell（《陋室铭》），with less than 100 words，he shows a lively picture of his humble cell.However，it also shows how he was pleased with the poor and simple life.People may find it strange that one can feel happy living in such a humble cell.Learning from his famous sentence，" be fragrant because of my virtues"（斯是陋室，惟吾德馨），I think to be a respectable man is more important than to live in big houses，to wear beautiful clothes，to enjoy delicious food，and even to gain knowledge.
（47）Which dynasty is the poem Song of Autumn written in？ 　 　
A．Song.
B．Yuan.
C．Ming.
D．Tang.
（48）How was autumn in Liu's eyes at that time？ 　 　
A．He thought it was a sad time.
B．He thought that autumn was rather cloudy.
C．He thought Spring was better.
D．He thought autumn was a hopeful season.
（49）Which of the following is the feature of Liu Yuxi's works according to the passage？ 　 　
A．Expressing personal feelings.
B．Describing daily life of young people.
C．Picturing blue sky and a crane.
D．Writing songs according to music.
（50）How did Liu feel about living in a humble cell in the writer's opinion？ 　 　
A．strange .
B．Unhappy.
C．Satisfied.
D．Lonely.
（51）Influenced by Liu Yuxi，which of the following does the writer think is the most important？ 　 　
A．To be a respectable man.
B．To live in a big house.
C．To wear beautiful clothes.
D．To gain more knowledge.

故选：C。
22．（1分）Mrs.Green is excellent teacher that she always makes her classes lively.（　　）
A．so B．such a C．such D．such an

故选：D。

故选：C．
25．（1分）—Alice，can you help me with my English homework？

Poems from Tang and Song dynasties，operas from Yuan dynasty，and novels from Ming and Qing dynasties are very famous in China's history.Today，I'd like to recommend Song of Autumn，one of the poems by Liu Yuxi （772﹣842），a famous poet and writer in the mid Tang dynasty.
Just as shown in the first line of the poem，most ancient poets liked to describe autumn as a sad time，but in this poem the season appears differently.In Liu's eyes，autumn，full of life and hope，is even better than spring morning.He describes the bright scene of a crane riding the clouds and flying into the blue sky.
With his poems paying special attention to expressing personal feelings，as well as the daily life of common people，Liu wrote poems with beautiful music﹣like words.You may feel it in this poem.Though being translated thoughtfully by experienced Xu Yuanchong，the poem still reads not so beautifully as that in Chinese.I personally think that English is sometimes not so powerful as Chinese.
Here is another example，in Liu's essay An Eulogium on a Humble Cell（《陋室铭》），with less than 100 words，he shows a lively picture of his humble cell.However，it also shows how he was pleased with the poor and simple life.People may find it strange that one can feel happy living in such a humble cell.Learning from his famous sentence，" be fragrant because of my virtues"（斯是陋室，惟吾德馨），I think to be a respectable man is more important than to live in big houses，to wear beautiful clothes，to enjoy delicious food，and even to gain knowledge.
（47）Which dynasty is the poem Song of Autumn written in？ 　D　
A．Song.
B．Yuan.
C．Ming.
D．Tang.
（48）How was autumn in Liu's eyes at that time？ 　D　
A．He thought it was a sad time.
B．He thought that autumn was rather cloudy.
C．He thought Spring was better.
D．He thought autumn was a hopeful season.
（49）Which of the following is the feature of Liu Yuxi's works according to the passage？ 　A　
A．Expressing personal feelings.
B．Describing daily life of young people.
C．Picturing blue sky and a crane.
D．Writing songs according to music.
（50）How did Liu feel about living in a humble cell in the writer's opinion？ 　C　
A．strange .
B．Unhappy.
C．Satisfied.
D．Lonely.
（51）Influenced by Liu Yuxi，which of the following does the writer think is the most important？ 　A　
A．To be a respectable man.
B．To live in a big house.
C．To wear beautiful clothes.
D．To gain more knowledge.
【解答】细节推理题。
（47）根据正文第一段Today，I'd like to recommend Song of Autumn，one of the poems by Liu Yuxi （772﹣842），a famous poet and writer in the mid Tang dynasty.（今天，我想向大家推荐唐中期著名诗人、作家刘禹锡（772﹣842）的一首诗《秋词》。）可知这首诗是唐诗，故选D。
（48）根据正文第二段In Liu's eyes，autumn，full of life and hope，is even better than spring morning.（在刘的眼中，充满生机和希望的秋天甚至比春天的早晨还要美好。）可知在刘禹锡的眼中，秋天是充满生机和希望的，故选D。
（49）根据正文第三段With his poems paying special attention to expressing personal feelings，as well as the daily life of common people，Liu wrote poems with beautiful music﹣like words.（他的诗特别注重表达个人情感，以及普通人的日常生活，他的诗用优美的音乐般的词语。）可知刘禹锡的作品注重表达个人情感，故选A。
（50）根据正文第四段However，it also shows how he was pleased with the poor and simple life.（然而，它也显示了他是如何满足于贫穷和简单的生活。）可知作者认为刘禹锡住在陋室感到满足，故选C。
（51）根据正文第四段I think to be a respectable man is more important than to live in big houses，to wear beautiful clothes，to enjoy delicious food，and even to gain knowledge.（我认为做一个受人尊敬的人比住在大房子里，穿漂亮的衣服，享受美味的食物，甚至获得知识更重要。）可知受刘禹锡的影响，作者认为受人的尊敬最重要，故选A。
