As Paul walked home,he thought of what Mrs.Green said.Maybe he didn't do his homework because he wanted to get his dad's (36)A.He knew Mrs.Green was right.He decided to take her advice.

解答 31.A.baseball棒球;cards卡片; chess象棋; toys玩具.根據(jù)下一句中的"threw his baseball intothe corner"可知為baseball.故選:A
32.B.lucky幸運的;sorry抱歉的; surprised吃驚的;pleased高興的.根據(jù)后文"I couldn't play baseball with you tonight"可知不能陪他玩,所以抱歉.故選:B
33.D.famous著名的;helpful有用的;lazy懶惰的;busy忙碌的.根據(jù)第二段"晚上八點鐘爸爸還在辦公室",可知他很忙.故選:D
34.C.made制造;missed錯過;failed失。籧hose選擇.根據(jù)本段后文"You didn't pass the test"可知保羅不交家庭作業(yè)并且考試失敗了.故選:C

36.A.a(chǎn)ttention注意; message消息; praise贊美;trust信任.從上文爸爸很忙,對孩子關(guān)注不夠,推測出他是想引起爸爸的注意.故選:A
37.C.saw看見;thanked感謝;called打電話;greeted問候.通過最后一段"As Paul ended the call"可知給他的爸爸打電話.故選:C
38.B.prepare準備;break破壞;follow遵守;question提問.根據(jù)上文爸爸不能陪他,以及后面"it hurts me"可知每次爸爸破壞了計劃,讓他很傷心.故選:B
39.B.choice選擇;homework作業(yè);speech演講;decision決心.根據(jù)上文他不做作業(yè),并且考試不及格,可知Paul想要讓爸爸幫助他輔導(dǎo)作業(yè)和功課.故選:B

8.Today the word friendship has been used so often that it has lost its meaning.Some jokingly or seriously say that friends are made to be used.It makes me very sad.
True friendship doesn't mean that when you need your friend's help,you will treat him to dinner,and when you have to protect yourself,you will put your friends in a difficult situation.
In fact,true friendship is the communication and understanding of the hearts(心).
True friendship is like water.Compared wish decent wine,water is tasteless,but is of great help when we are thirsty.True friends don't need to be with each other every day,but are connected in heart every minute.
True friendship is like medicine.Though it is bitter,it cures your illness.True friends give you some suggestions even if they know you would not take.They criticize you when others have a good word for you,not because of envy but worrying that you may lose your cool head.
True friendship has nothing to do with fame,power or money.True friends would often watch you silently far away when you are influential,but come to you whenever you need their help.You're not his stepping-stone to success,but are his crutch to live through difficulties.
True friends make you complete.Many persons go along with you through your life─your parents,your spouse,and your children,who take care of you and make your life happy.However,you still need someone who understands your thoughts and souls.Without them,you are likely to be unhealthy in spirit.
True friends stay in your heart,rather than at your side;they know you more than yourself,and try to better you.
Once you have found such a true friend,do treasure(珍惜)him.If your true friend disappears,how can you make the sound of your heart understood?

34.The writer feels sad because some peopleA.
A.don't understand friendship     B.make wrong friends
C.don't treasure friendship       D.blame their friends
35.The writer speaks of water becauseB.
A.it has no taste                B.it is important to our life
C.it is easy to get               D.it stays with us every day
36.The underlined word"influential"in Paragraph 5means"D".
A.busy         B.quiet         C.helpful         D.powerful
37.According to the passage,true friends may help youA.
A.enjoy mental health           B.a(chǎn)chieve success
C.understand them better         D.live a happy life.

the painting in small towns to keep it out of the hands of German forces.

15.Do you think that living a hungry life is last century's story?Well,it may be this century's headline.
The world has growing worries about a global food shortage.Right now,there are still 870million hungry people in the world,according to a survey of the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization.Children can't escape this,either.Around fifteen million children die of hungry each year.
What's causing food shortages?There are several reasons.
There are now more droughts and floods.This is very harmful to farmers and their ability to grow food.
Besides,with the growing population,feeding everyone becomes more difficult.There are a little more than seven billion people in the world.By 2050,the world population will be more than nine billion.
Another reason is food waste.The average person throws away 50kg of food every year.
How can we help with food shortages?The easiest way is to cut down on food waste.
Next time before throwing away the food on your plate,just think how much work has been done to make it.By buying less,we waste less.This takes the pressure off producing so much food.And it helps to solve the problem of food shortage.
You can also ask your schoolmates to join you.
In 2013,researchers at Kansas State University in the US put up short anti-waste slogans(標語) in dining rooms"Think Before You Waste".Guess what happened?Students wasted fifteen percent less food after that!
The author of the study said,"You don't need a huge activity to make a difference."
Reasons of food shortage(56)More droughts and floods
The growing population.
(57)Food waste
Ways of(58)helping with food shortage(59)Cut down on food waste
Ask the other students to join in your anti-waste work.
Your understanding of the last sentence.
(60)Stop wasting from ourselves and from tiny/little things.
