5.April 15th marks the 102nd anniversary(周年) of the sinking of the Titanic(泰坦尼克號(hào)).The 11-storey ship was not just very large,but also unusually luxurious (豪華).It is therefore not surprising that the sinking of the Titanic continues to attract the interest of people of all ages,even today.
Over the years,there have been many books about this tragedy(悲劇).However,very few have been written from the perspective(視角) of the young passengers.This is why I Survived the Sinking of the Titanic,1912by Lauren Tarshis is fun and different.The author uses facts from the real tragedy and makes up a heart-stopping adventure story starring a smart and brave boy George Calder.After spending an exiting vacation in England with their Aunt Daisy,ten-year-old Gorge and his little sister Phoebe,were heading home to America,aboard the greatest ship on earth,the Titanic!
Then on the night of April 14th,the first sign of disaster(災(zāi)難) appeared---the luxury ship hit a huge iceberg.But given that everybody in the world knew that the Titanic was unsinkable,there was very little cause for panic(驚慌).They were all confident that the ship's engineers would be able to repair the"slight"damage that had been caused by the iceberg.
This,of course,turned out to be untrue.Within a few hours the Titanic was not only sinking,but faster than most people had time to react.Added to this was the fact that there were not enough lifeboats to take all the passengers to shore.If that was not enough,when the emergency(緊急) call to get on the deck(甲板) came,Gorge realized that his sister Phoebe was missing.
Will George be able to find his sister and help her get to shore?To find out,be sure to read I Survived the Sinking of the Titanic,1912.

28.B.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段Added to this was the fact that there were not enough lifeboats to take all the passengers to shore可知救生艇不足使所有乘客更難生存;故選B.

15.Trying to create a happy family atmosphere can sometimes feel like a
challenge in today's world.Everyone's busy,technology seems to take over a lot of spare time,and many adults and children feel stressed.However,there are some steps you can take to keep your family happy in the modern world.Step1:Eat Dinner Together Daily
    Take time out from your activities to eat dinner together as a family.Talk about your day,reconnect with one another,and discuss your future plans.It's a great way for parents and kids to stay involved in one another's lives.Step 2:Allow your Children to Have a Voice
    Telling kids,"It's my way or the highway,"isn't likely to yield happy results.Obviously,parents need to be in charge and need to be strict with kids accordingly,but kids should have some right in the family.Listen to your children's concerns,allow your children to offerinput,and be willing to admit when you're wrong.
Step 3:Establish Clear Rules
    Happy families need clear rules about expectations and behaviors that will not be tolerated.It can be helpful to write out a list of rules and keep them displayed in the house.Create rules that emphasize the importance of treating one another with respect.Encourage every family member to participate in establishing the household rules.Step 4:Develop Family Traditions
    Family traditions can help a family feel united.Traditions don't need to be reserved for holidays.Instead,you can create weekly or even daily family traditions.For example,make Sunday nights family game night and take turns picking out board games.Or make a tradition at bedtime where each family member talks about the highlight of their day.Creating such traditions will help your family stay connected.

16.Good health is the most valuable thing a person can have but one cannot take good health for granted.It is important to remember that the body needs proper care in order to be healthy.There are three things that a person can do to help stay healthy,eating right food,getting enough sleep,and exercising regularly.
Proper nutrition(營(yíng)養(yǎng)) is important for good health.Your body cannot work well unless it receives the proper kind"fuel".Don't eat too much food with lots of sugar and fat.Eat plenty of foods high in protein(蛋白質(zhì)),like meat,fish,eggs and nuts.Vegetables and fruits are very important because they provide necessary vitamins and minerals.However,don't overeat.It is not helpful to be overweight.
Getting the proper amount of sleep is also important.If you don't get enough sleep,you feel tired and easily get angry.You have no energy.Over a long period of time a little amount of sleep may even result in a change of personality(人的個(gè)性).Be sure to allow yourself from
seven to nine hours of sleep each day.If you do,your body will feel strong and refreshed,and  your mind will be sharp.
Finally,get plenty of exercise.Exercise makes the body stronger,strengthens the muscles(肌肉),and prevents you from gaining weight.It also improves your heart and lungs.If you follow a regular exercise program,you will probably increase your life-span(壽命).Any kind of exercise is good.Most sports are good for keeping the body in good shape:basketball,swimming,bicycling,running and so on.Sports are not only good for your body,but they are enjoyable and interesting,too.

14.How to choose appropriate books for English beginners
It is a conventional wisdom that in order to have a good command of English,the most effective way is to read English books widely.(36)F I would like to share some of my experience.
Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice was my first English novel.It is recommended by many English teachers and professors as an ideal book for English learners.(37)AI had great difficulty in understanding the novel,let alone enjoying it.It's not the vocabulary that troubled me,but rather the way Austen constructs sentences,and her way of thinking,which seemed too remote to me at that time.
My fading enthusiasm was much recovered after reading Hemingway's novel Farewell to Arms.No long and complicated sentences.And I particularly liked his concise and straightforward style.(38)G I do not mean to exclude(排除) classical novels for ever.Actually,the second reading of Pride and Prejudice greatly pleased me(probably the result of my improved English comprehension).It is only that classical novels are less accessible to beginners due to their language styles and social background.
(39)E In fact,if you limit yourself to novels you will miss a lot of treasures.English essays can at once inform you,entertain you,and improve your taste in English.Here comes my second suggestion-essays are necessary.
My last advice is never to follow others'recommendations and opinions blindly.We should be open to various ideas,but always think and determine for ourselves.(40)CWith that in mind,we are bound to find out our favorite writers through reading and develop our fine taste in English.

A.But my experience was somewhat disastrous.
B.So one must read as many books as possible.
C.As a saying goes,one man's meat is another man's poison.
D.Anyway,novels are not good material for English learning.
E.However,reading novels is not the only way to improve your English.
F.Yet one may be at a loss to choose the appropriate books,especially as a beginner.
G.So as a beginner,you'd better choose contemporary novels instead of classical ones.

12.What the Queen keeps inside it has long remained a mystery.Now a new book claims to cast light on the contents of the royal matriarch's main possession.
What's in The Queen's Handbag:And Other Royal Secrets reveals that though the 81-year-old British monarch(君主)doesn't carry cash,keys or passport-since she doesn't own one-her bag is far from empty.Inside are a collection of little presents from her children,a make-up case,some family photos,and a camera sometimes.There's also an s-shaped metal hook that she places on the dinner table's edge to hang her bag from so that it doesn't touch the floor.
Should you ever meet the Queen,it's not what's in her bag but what she does with it that should concern you.She uses her bags,of which she has about 200 made by London-based firm Launier,to send signals to her staff.
Before dining with Queen,a point is made to inform guests that dinner will end in about five minutes after she places her bag on the table top.
On walkabouts,she holds the bag to one side to show she intends to move on,at which point a lady-in-waiting joins the conversation,allowing her to slip away without causing offence.
When at a banquet,if the Queen's bag is placed on the floor then it's a sign that she's not finding the conversation interesting,and wants nothing more than to escape.However,if the royal bag is dangling(懸掛) happily from the crook of her left arm,she is happy and relaxed.
32.What does the article tell us about the Queen's handbag?D
A.She seldom has it with her.
B.She always carries the same handbag.
C.It used to be thought empty.
D.Its contents are not the same as ours.
33.When is it necessary for the Queen to convey her intention with her bag?A
A.When she is with guests.
B.When she eats outside.
C.When she has her staff around.
D.when she is tired of speaking.
34.The Queen gives no signal when sheA
A.hangs her bag on the metal hook 
B.hangs her bag from her left arm
C.places her bag on the floor     
D.puts her bag on the table top
35.By holding her bag to one side,the Queen shows she wants toC
A.talk to her lady-in-waiting         
B.start a conversation
C.stop to continue her walk          
D.go on with the talk.
