The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of 2 September 1666.

In four days it destroyed more than three-quarters of the old city, where most of the houses were wooden and close together. One hundred thousand people became homeless ,but only a few lost their lives.
　 The fire started on Sunday morning in the house of the King's baker(面包师)in Pudding Lane. The baker, with his wife andfamily, was able to get out through a window in the roof. A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery into a small hotel next door. Then it spread quickly into Thames Street. That was the beginning.
　 By eight o'clock three hundred houses were on fire. On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning along the River Thames. Tuesday was the worst day. The fire destroyed many well-known buildings, old St Paul's and the Guildhall among them.
　 Samuel Pepys, the famous writer, wrote about the fire. People threw their things into the river. Many poor people stayed in their houses until the last moment. Birds fell out of the air because of the heat.
　 The fire stopped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire. With nothing left to burn, the fire became weak and finally died out.
　 After the fire, Christopher Wren, the architect(建筑师), wanted a city with wider streets and fine new houses of stone. In fact, the streets are still narrow; but he did build more than fifty churches, among them was the new St Paul's.
　 The fire caused great pain and loss, but after it London was a better place: a city for the future and not just of the past.

A. a hotel　 B. the palace C. Pudding Lane D. Thames Street

   The food we eat seems to have a great effect on our health. Although science has made big steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent(百分比) of human illness is related to(有联系) food and forty percent of cancer(癌症) is related to food as well. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, some researchers realized that things commonly used to keep color in meats and other food additives（添加剂）caused cancer.
   Yet, these additives remain in our food, and it is difficult to know which things on the wrappings（包装）of foods are helpful or harmful. The additives which we eat are not all so direct(直接的). Farmers often give penicillin(青霉素) to their animals, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of cows. Sometimes similar things are supplied to(提供) animals not for their health, but just to make a profit(利润).
   The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to get a higher price on the market. Although some countries have tried to control such things, the practice continues.
   9. According to this passage, we can know_____.
   资*源%库 A. perhaps most of human illness is caused by what we eat.
2. perhaps most kinds of cancer are related to what people eat.
3. cancer was discovered in 1945.
4. science has made food unfit to eat .

10. Things that are used to keep colors in meats are .

1. harmful B. useless C. helpless D. good

11. All the additives ______.

1. are bright and colorless. B. are not bright and colorful.

C. have indirect effects on our health. D. have no effects on our health .

12. Which of the following is not true?

1. Some wrappings of food are harmful.
2. Farmers try to make more money on the market by fattening their animals.

C.“The practice continues” means “things are still going on like that”.

D. We needn’t take care of what we eat.

D

A little stress(压力) is good, since it helps you keep motivated(有动力的) to meet your goals. However, too much stress is bad for your health. Stress needs to be managed in order to prevent anxiety (焦虑). Here are some tips on how to manage stress.

Write it out
    Write down everything that seems stressful, and ways to deal with each problem. You’ll find a things-to-do list much easier to manage than having all messed up(乱成一团) in your head. Write down the tasks along with the specific times when you can do them.

One task at a time
    Give each task(任务) all your attention while you’re doing it, and forget the rest. This will keep you from feeling anxious about things you have left to do. Thinking about other tasks only adds unnecessary stress, and can even stop you from doing the task you’re busy with at present. You don’t need to do everything all at once, or on your own. The feeling of being pressed to finish something on time will somehow disappear if someone is there to help you.

Give yourself a reward
    Rewarding yourself for what you’ve already done, no matter how small, is a great way to motivate yourself to keep going. It will reduce stress, and make you happier to go on with the next task.

Give yourself a break
    Breaks of ten to fifteen minutes are important. Visit a cafe or take a quick walk —anything to take your mind off the work for a while. If you need to stay at work, sit with your eyes closed and imagine a peaceful place or some other relaxing scenes(场景). This will remove the stress from your muscles and mind.

13.The best title for the passage would probably be _____.

1. Stress Is Good or Not B. How to Form Good Working Habits
   C. Tips on How to Manage Stress D. Ways to Keep Healthy
   14.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
   1. It’s better to plan a specific time to do the task.
   2. It helps you stay motivated to think about the undone tasks.
   3. It’s unnecessary for you to do all the tasks by yourself.
   4. It helps if you put your attention to one task at a time.

15.Which of the following would the author agree?

$来&源： A. The more stress you have, the more motivated you will be.

B. Writing down everything seems impossible.

C. Only reward yourself for your biggest achievements in your work.
D. It is necessary to have a break during your work.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

__16_.Being angry doesn’t really solve much, but what people do when they feel angry is important. The goal is to calm down and try to solve what is bothering you. This is hard for some kids and adults, too. Instead of calming down, some kids might keep getting more and more upset until they explode(爆发) like a volcano!

_17__.Their anger might be so strong that they lose control of their temper. They may act in ways unacceptable and hurtful. People may say that someone has trouble controlling their temper._18___

Some kids might get so angry that they scream at their parents, break something, or even worse, hit their brothers or sisters._19___ .However, it’s not OK for a kid to do any of those things .Kids don’t want to act in this way , but sometimes angry feelings can be hard to manage. So what to do?

Well, the good news is that kids don’t just have to keep making the same mistakes over and over again.__20_.Imagine your temper as a puppy（小狗） inside you that needs some training. The puppy is not bad ---- it will probably turn out a great dog. It just needs to learn some rules because, right now, that puppy is causing some problems to you.

1. You can train you temper.
2. You don’t want to cause trouble.
3. Kids should be allowed to express their feelings, even angry ones.
4. Everybody gets angry sometimes.
5. In fact, they usually mean that a kid behaves badly when feeling angry.
6. Instead of thinking of the person you’re angry with, think of something else.
7. Some kids get angry more often or more easily than some other kids.

作文：Dear Li Ming,

I’m sorry to know that you feel uncomfortable in your new class. One of the reasons, I think, is that you might be too shy to talk confidently with your classmates. Maybe you are afraid that your classmates will make fun of your accent. Therefore it is natural for you to feel lonely occasionally.

I believe, with your effort, that you can manage to overcome these difficulties. To start with, you can talk with people around you, and be brave to ask them questions that you don’t know. Besides, comparing notes with your classmates frequently is a good way for you to make new friends.

In our spare time, I’ll invite you to play basketball or go to some parties. Also, I’d like to introduce my good friends to you.

I hope you can adapt to the new school life as soon as possible.

Best regards.

Yours truly,

Li Hua
