A. verse 231B. verse 71C. verse 127D. verse 100BWhen it comes to friends, I desire those who will share my happiness, who possess wings of their own and who will fly with me. I seek friends whose qualities illuminate（照亮）me and train me up for love. It is for these people that I reserve the glowing hours, too good not to share. When I was in the eighth grade, I had a friend. We were shy and “too serious” about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors. We said little at school, but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper, and one of us would say: “Lets start with a train whistle today.” We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. Then we would read them aloud. At the end of that school year, we, too, were changing into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped. When I lived for a time in London, I had a friend. He was in despair (无望) and I was in despair. But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because we had felt bad at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things. We walked until our despairs disappeared and then we parted. We gave London to each other. For almost four years I have had a remarkable friend whose imagination illuminates mine. We write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves. Each of us appears, sometimes in a funny way, in the others dreams. She and I agree that, at certain times, we seem to be parts of the same mind. In my most interesting moments, I often think: “Yes, I must tell.”We have never met.It is such comforting companions I wish to keep. One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist（心理学家），who will only fill up the healing（愈合的）silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend.4. In the eighth grade, what the author did before developing proper social behavior was to _.A. become serious about her studyB. go to her friends house regularlyC. learn from her classmates at schoolD. share poems and stories with her friend5. In Paragraph 3, “We gave London to each other” probably means _.A. our exploration of London was a memorable gift to both of usB. we were unwilling to tear ourselves away from LondonC. our unpleasant feeling about London disappearedD. we parted with each other in London6. According to Paragraph 4, the author and her friend _.A. call each other regularlyB. have similar personalitiesC. enjoy writing to each otherD. dream of meeting each other7. What is the best title for the passage?A. Unforgettable ExperiencesB. Remarkable ImaginationC. Lifelong FriendshipD. Noble CompanionsCThe new year has begun and some people may be looking to 2021 as the year they get a dog. A furry friend will bring a lot of fun and companionship to your family especially for urban residents who always feel lonely living in the fast-paced society. But looking after a pet does require some responsibility from the pet owner if you want your new friend to be healthy and happy in your family.The following is a checklist for people who are considering adopting an animal.Where to find a dog There are hundreds of pet shops in Shanghai, big and small, where you can find puppies at a cost ranging from a few hundred to tens of thousands of yuan. The pet shop will tell you some basic facts about dogs of a specific breed. But dont forget to ask about the vaccination status if you are buying a puppy, which needs three injections with an interval of three to four weeks between shots. Another option is to ask your friends if they know anyone with a dog that has recently had puppies. This option is more reliable than buying a puppy from someone you dont know, especially the street peddlers who might carry animals with diseases.Another highly recommended option is to adopt one from an NGO dedicated to providing shelter and protecting stray animals. This is quite practical if you dont care about the dogs breed.Vaccination (疫苗) As a pet owner, there are some things you must do otherwise you may get into big trouble, and one of these is getting your dog vaccinated. Dogs need regular shots to fight against canine parvovirus (犬细小病毒), rabies and other diseases or viruses. To ensure the vaccines are not substandard, we strongly recommend you get your furry friend a shot from a qualified vet, which may cost a few hundred yuan each year. Another advantage of using the vet as opposed to getting your dog vaccinated yourself, is that the vet will examine its condition to see whether it is suitable to get a shot now and take immediate action if it has an allergic reaction to the vaccine. Because you are advised not to give your animal a bath for one week following its vaccination, you should clean your animal one or two days before the shot if you dont want your dog to get too dirty.Parasite (寄生虫) protection As a pet owner, you need to be prepared to get rid of fleas (跳蚤), heartworm (犬心虫), roundworm (蛔虫）, intestinal worms and other parasites from your dog. Dogs need regular flea and tick control and parasite protection, even if it does not show symptoms of being affected by the parasite. An adult dog needs to be fed with a tablet every six months to make sure it does not have any parasite. You also need to take measures every three months to help expel fleas and ticks from your animal. You need to learn the signs of a flea bite: they may immediately cause a dog to feel extremely itchy. Within 30 minutes of a bite, they may develop a red bump. Secondary infections caused by scratching are also common.Dog training No dog is born with good manners. Pooping on the carpet, leaping enthusiastically onto guests, pulling so hard that it practically yanks your arm out of the socket when on walks thats all perfectly acceptable in the canine world. Its up to you to teach your dog to behave the way humans want it to. Despite the adage（谚语；格言） about old dogs and new tricks, there are no age limits to teaching dogs. And whether youve got a brand-new puppy or an older dog, the first step is the same: learn how to be a good teacher. Every dog is different and will respond better to a slightly different training style, but these general guidelines apply: stay consistent and patient, and reward your dog for getting it right.8. The underlined word “vet” means_.A. a surgeon B. a physician C. a dentist D. a doctor who treats animals9. According to the article, how many aspects should a pet owner pay attention to?A. Two B. Three C. Four D. Five10. Which of the following sentences is FALSE?A.A dog can bring much fun and companionship to your family especially for urban residents who always feel lonely living in the fast-paced society.B. As a pet owner, it is unnecessary for you to be prepared to get rid of fleas.C. Its up to you to teach your dog to behave the way humans want it to.D. After getting a dog, the first step for its owner is to be a good teacher.其次节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）依据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并将答案涂在答题卡上。选项中有两项为多余选项。 You say youre old enough to stay out late on weekends while they say you have to be home early. 11_You say youve met some nice kids and youd like to go out with them, but they say theyd like to see your friends first.When youre a teenager, it seems that every time you say “I want to”, they will certainly answer “No, you cant.” Also, no part of your life is safe from the “prying eyes” of your parents. 15-year-old Debbie says, “My dad always wants to know where I am, what time Im going to be home.
