7.Height is just one of the thousands of features that your genes decide.In fact,because you have parents,your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent.If both your parents are tall,then most probably you will be tall,too.But if you have questions about how tall you're going to b e,ask your doctor if he or she can help you find it out.
      But genes don't decide everything.For example,eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to your full potential.Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height.
      No doubt you're wondering how fast you should grow.There's no perfect or right answer.Generally speaking,kids grow about two inches (six centimeters) a year between age 3 and the time when they start puberty.(青春期).
      Your doctor will know how your growth has been going over the years.How you've been growing up to this point,and what other changes your body may be going through.
       Don't be scared if you have grown a lot in a very short time.Everyone has a growth spurt (高峰) during puberty.The age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for boys.But it can be earlier or later---between 7 and 9 and 15 for boys.
      You'll usually begin to notice that you're growing faster about a year or so after your body starts to show the first changes of puberty.

11.Health officials in Canada are very busy these days.They are placing chickens at fixed po ints all along their 2,500km border (邊境) with the United States of America.
It's not a joke,nor have the Canadians gone mad.They are using these chickens to see if the West Nile virus (病毒) is still around.The virus infects birds,so the chickens have a chance of catching the virus and fall ill.The West Nile virus is spread among humans.It killed seven people in New York last year.
Countries around the world are realizing that it may just be possible to stop certain kinds of people from entering their land.However,it is very difficult to stop viruses traveling from one end of the earth to another.When they travel to new places,they get used to the environment very easily and sometimes start destroying the local plant and animal life.These biological polluters are called smart polluters.
These smart polluters can be carried across borders of countries unknowingly.Just as we humans are travelling across the world more often than earlier,these biological polluters have also started journey much more.They slide into airplanes through their wheels.They dig into objects that travelers may be carrying from one country to another.
There are some good examples of how these polluters work.The water hyacinth (水葫蘆) of South America is blocking lakes in China and Africa.Tree snakes from Papua New Guinea are busy eating up some birds in the country of Guam,which breaks its natural balance.
That's why the customs (海關) officials in many foreign countries prevent people from bringing in a small plant,or an object made of wood that is in its natural form.The customs officials have these rules because these varieties (多樣性) of plants are special to certain places.The plants have the power to spread new illnesses among native plants and animals.Biological polluters always create problems in places where they do not belong.They could be special varieties of plants,bugs or even animals.
48.Why are Canadian officials placing chickens along the border?B
A.To help clean up the border.
B.To see if the virus is still around.
C.To protect the chickens from falling ill.
D.To make sure that the birds can find food.
49.Which of the following is TRUE?C
A.People find it difficult to travel from one place to another.
B.Plants always create problems in places where they belong.
C.Biological polluters may destroy the local plant and animal life.
D.Viruses spend a long time getting used to the local environment.
50.Customs officials in many countries prevent people from bringing inD.
A.chocolates
B.shoes
C.pictures
D.plants
51.What is the best title for the passage?C
A.Land Pollution
B.The West Nile Virus
C.Smart Polluters
D.The Water Hyacinth.

2.Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents,however,it is not true.Communication ( 勾通)is a problem for parents and children of all ages.If it's hard for you to com?municate with your parents,don't worry about it.Here are some suggestions for you to bridge gen?eration gap(代溝).
Don't argue with your parents.Don't get to your parents when you are angry.Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them.You can't express yourself well if you are angry.Go to someplace to cool off.Make sure you understand why you are unhappy.Then think about what you want to say to your parents.If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment,try writing a letter.
Try to reach a compromise (和解).Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something.You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other.Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a car.They argued over it,but finally they came to a compromise.Michael bought the car,but only drove it on certain days.
Of course your parents might refuse to compromise on something.In these situations,it is especially important to show love and respect (尊敬) to them.Showing respect will keep your relation?ship strong.
Talk about your values.The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own.Tell your parents what you care about,and why.Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.
A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person.It is worth having a try.
46.From the passage we knowC have a communication problem.
A.parents and children of all ages             B.children and other people
C.parents and their school children          D.teachers and ihcir students
47.Your parents probably will consider your ideas if youB.
A.don't express yourself well                    B.speak to them politely
C.don't write a letter to them                    D.don't talk to them
48.The underlined phrase"cool off"in the passage meansB.
A.make yourself happy                B.make yourself quiet and relaxed
C.become angry                           D.go away
49.If you and your parents have a generation gap,you'd betterC.
A.keep away from them                   B.agree with them all the time
C.have a talk with them and make your values known to them       D.argue with them
50.Most of the passage tells us thatC.
A.there are serious problems in families today
B.parents should love their children
C.parents and children have a generation gap

19.Every year on my birthday,from the time I turned 12,a white gardenia (梔子花) was sent to my house.No card came with it.Calls to the flower shops were not helpful at all.After a while I stopped trying to discover the sender's name and was just very pleased with the beautiful white flower in soft pink paper.
But I never stopped imagining who the giver might be.Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about the sender.My mother encouraged this imagining.She'd ask me if there was someone for whom I had done a special kindness.Perhaps it was the old man who I looked after when he was ill.As a girl,I had more fun imagining that it might be a boy.
One month before my graduation,my father died.I felt very sad and didn't want to go to the coming graduation dance at all.And I didn't care whether I had a new dress or not.But my mother,in her own sadness,would not let me miss any of those things.She wanted he children to feel loved and lovable.In truth,my mother wanted her children to see themselves much like the gardenia-lovely,strong and perfect with perhaps a bit of mystery.

16.    I bought a jasmine plant for my office.When I bought it,I was told it would bloom(開花)and the sweet smell would fill my office.I had the plant for two months,and every day I looked at it,but there weren't any flowers or pleasant smell.I was not happy,so I gave the plant to my friend Linda.
