Antonio Rossi was a very talented glassblower in Venice. One day, his daughter Clara walked into his workshop and saw two beautiful glass vases（花瓶）.
“I have made them for Mr. Lombardi, the great writer in Venice,” Antonio said proudly. “Now I must go and get Mr. Lombardi.”
After he leaving the workshop, Clara found a note beside the vases. Clara read it and smiled. As she turned, she bumped the vases. They fell to the ground and broke into many pieces. Only the round bases (底座) were not broken.
Clara picked up one of the round bases. “What will I tell Father ” She held the piece with tears falling down her face. It was then that she saw Mr. Lombardi's note as she looked through the glass. The letters were … BIG! She picked up the other base and looked through it. It worked, too! The words looked bigger.
Clara thought quickly. She found a wire and carefully wrapped it around the two glass pieces. Just as she finished, Mr.Lombardi and her father walked in.
“I’m so sorry, Father,” Clara said.
“What do you have there ” Mr. Lombardi asked.
“I made it from the broken pieces,” said Clara. “Look through them.” She held up the note for him to see.
Mr. Lombardi's eyes opened wide. “The words! They're big!” He looked at Clara's father. “My wife can't read my books because of her eyes. This will be my gift to her! It will be the greatest gift ever! Your daughter made something very useful.”
Clara did make something very useful. She had invented eyeglasses.
23. The two glass vases were made as a gift for _________.
A. Antonio Rossi B. Clara C. Mr. Lombardi D. Ms. Lombardi

（D）
The other day, I was waiting for a train—angrily. The train was late, which meant I would be late to meet a friend at the theater. Like many people, I hate being late. However, I often find myself running late. What’s the problem Michaela Thomas, a psychology (心理学) expert, says I’m a “time optimist”. “Time optimists” often wrongly predict how long something will take. As a result, they are often late for meetings or rush things at the last minute.
“Time optimists” usually get into trouble. Their lateness makes people around them angry, and they go through a lot of stress themselves. How can they fix their ways
Grace Pacie has written a book about “time optimists”. In the book, she says, “Time optimists usually plan to be on time, not ahead of time.” So she suggests they should create a pre-event deadline (截止时间). For example, if your dancing class starts at 8 p. m., tell yourself to arrive at 7:30 p. m.. She says, “It’s important to leave time for things to go wrong. Not all the lights are going to be green.”
But Fuschia Sirois, a psychologist, says that the problem of “time optimists” is not only about their time management, but also about their poor feeling management. Sometimes, people have too much going on with their work and family, and they often go for the easy fix—to procrastinate (拖延). Sirois suggests having a better understanding of your future self. For example, you are up against a deadline, but you are feeling tired and want to put off the task. Ask yourself, “Will I magically be energetic on the second day If I can’t really do it all tomorrow, why not start doing it today ” In fact, that future you will probably feel even more stressed about the task when it’s late.
How does the writer lead into the topic
By listing numbers B．By telling his own experience
C．By using famous sayings D．By asking questions
28. According to the passage, typical “time optimists” ______.
A．always exactly tell how long something will take
B．often miss a train because of unexpected things
C．usually arrive a bit early to meet their friends
D．seldom wait for the last minute to get things done
29. Which are the ways to solve the problem of lateness
a. setting a pre-event deadline b. putting off the tasks
c. knowing better about your future self d. planning to be on time
A．ac B．bc C．ad D．bd
30.Which of the following best shows the structure of the text

In summer, mosquitoes (蚊子) come out and give us bites. They may carry diseases and make us sick. Here is a safe and simple way to catch mosquitoes.
A. B. C. D.
31 Cut off the top of an empty plastic bottle right below the neck.
32 Put sugar and yeast(酵母) in warm water in the bottom (底部) of the bottle. For a 2-liter bottle, mix 1 cup of warm water, 4 spoons of sugar, and 1/3 spoon of yeast.
33 Put the top of the bottle downward to make a funnel (漏斗) shape. Use tape or glue to keep the funnel in place.
34 Cover the bottle with a black cloth. This keeps the bottle dark both inside and out.
Put new yeast and sugar in the bottle every few days. The sugar and yeast mix makes carbon dioxide(二氧化碳), which mosquitoes like. The funnel shape helps mosquitoes get in but makes it hard for them to get out.

Possible version:
Hi Jack,
I am glad to hear you will come to Beijing and would like to better learn Chinese and Chinese culture. Here are my suggestions.
In order to improve Chinese, you had better practice speaking with local people as often as possible. Besides, it's also a good idea to watch Chinese films to learn vocabulary. The more you enrich, the better you will speak. If you want to have a better understanding of Chinese culture, why not hang out in your free time Visiting some places of interest like Palace Museum is the best way to explore traditional culture. Moreover, don't forget to taste Chinese traditional food to know more cultures. I hope you'll get used to the life in China.
Looking forward to seeing you soon.（106 words）

Antonio Rossi was a very talented glassblower in Venice. One day, his daughter Clara
walked into his workshop and saw two beautiful glass vases（花瓶）.
“I have made them for Mr. Lombardi, the great writer in Venice,” Antonio said proudly.
“Now I must go and get Mr. Lombardi.”
After he leaving the workshop, Clara found a note beside the vases. Clara read it and
smiled. As she turned, she bumped the vases. They fell to the ground and broke into many
pieces. Only the round bases (底座) were not broken.
Clara picked up one of the round bases. “What will I tell Father ” She held the piece
3
with tears falling down her face. It was then that she saw Mr. Lombardi's note as she looked
through the glass. The letters were … BIG! She picked up the other base and looked through
it. It worked, too! The words looked bigger.
Clara thought quickly. She found a wire and carefully wrapped it around the two glass
pieces. Just as she finished, Mr.Lombardi and her father walked in.
“I’m so sorry, Father,” Clara said.
“What do you have there ” Mr. Lombardi asked.
“I made it from the broken pieces,” said Clara. “Look through them.” She held up the
note for him to see.
Mr. Lombardi's eyes opened wide. “The words! They're big!” He looked at Clara's
father. “My wife can't read my books because of her eyes. This will be my gift to her! It will
be the greatest gift ever! Your daughter made something very useful.”

C. Clara was a careless girl who often made mistakes.

（D）
The other day, I was waiting for a train—angrily. The train was late, which meant I
would be late to meet a friend at the theater. Like many people, I hate being late. However, I
often find myself running late. What’s the problem Michaela Thomas, a psychology (心理
学 ) expert, says I’m a “time optimist”. “Time optimists” often wrongly predict how long
something will take. As a result, they are often late for meetings or rush things at the last
minute.
“Time optimists” usually get into trouble. Their lateness makes people around them
angry, and they go through a lot of stress themselves. How can they fix their ways
Grace Pacie has written a book about “time optimists”. In the book, she says, “Time
optimists usually plan to be on time, not ahead of time.” So she suggests they should create
4
a pre-event deadline (截止时间). For example, if your dancing class starts at 8 p. m., tell
yourself to arrive at 7:30 p. m.. She says, “It’s important to leave time for things to go wrong.
Not all the lights are going to be green.”
But Fuschia Sirois, a psychologist, says that the problem of “time optimists” is not only
about their time management, but also about their poor feeling management. Sometimes,
people have too much going on with their work and family, and they often go for the easy
fix—to procrastinate (拖延 ). Sirois suggests having a better understanding of your future
self. For example, you are up against a deadline, but you are feeling tired and want to put off
the task. Ask yourself, “Will I magically be energetic on the second day If I can’t really do
it all tomorrow, why not start doing it today ” In fact, that future you will probably feel even
more stressed about the task when it’s late.
27. How does the writer lead into the topic
A. By listing numbers B．By telling his own experience
C．By using famous sayings D．By asking questions
28. According to the passage, typical “time optimists” ______.
A．always exactly tell how long something will take
B．often miss a train because of unexpected things
C．usually arrive a bit early to meet their friends
D．seldom wait for the last minute to get things done
29. Which are the ways to solve the problem of lateness
a. setting a pre-event deadline b. putting off the tasks
c. knowing better about your future self d. planning to be on time
A．ac B．bc C．ad D．bd
30.Which of the following best shows the structure of the text

Possible version:
Hi Jack,
I am glad to hear you will come to Beijing and would like to better learn Chinese and
Chinese culture. Here are my suggestions.
In order to improve Chinese, you had better practice speaking with local people as
often as possible. Besides, it's also a good idea to watch Chinese films to learn vocabulary.
The more you enrich, the better you will speak. If you want to have a better understanding of
Chinese culture, why not hang out in your free time Visiting some places of interest like
Palace Museum is the best way to explore traditional culture. Moreover, don't forget to taste
Chinese traditional food to know more cultures. I hope you'll get used to the life in China.
Looking forward to seeing you soon.（106 words）
Yours,
Li Ming
