Choose the best answer (根据文章内容，选择最恰当的答案)： It’s a cold, grey Sunday afternoon in March. The light is slowly fading, but all over Britain people are working in their gardens. They’re digging, cutting leaves and planting new weeds. By summer, their gardens will be full of bright colors. The British love their gardens. A British newspaper recently asked people for their opinions about them. Seventy percent of people felt it was important to spend time in the garden, and over half of these described gardening as the most enjoyable thing they ever did. Only one in ten houses in Britain do not have a garden. You can, of course, just grow house plants inside or on your balcony. Once it was only the very wealthy who had a garden. You can still see the huge gardens that surround historic houses such as Chatsworth House or Castle Howard. Ordinary people used their land to produce food to eat or sell, or grew herbs to make medicine. In the nineteenth century, however, gardening became a hobby. About the same time, better transport meant people could buy different kinds of seeds and plants for their gardens. Although roses, sunflowers, onions and tomatoes are often grown in British gardens, they grew wild in other countries before. In many villages and towns there are competitions for the best looked-after gardens. This year the winner was a little village in Northern Ireland. It’s already won four prizes for its beauty. People also take part in competitions to grow the largest vegetables, but don’t expect to win. Britain’s biggest carrot is almost six meters long! A newspaper asked people what they grew in their gardens. Look at the diagram which shows their answers. 【1】Most of the British love to spend time in _____. A. fishing B. hunting C. gardening D. farming 【2】Only ____ houses in Britain don’t have a garden. A. 10% B. 20% C. 50% D. 70% 【3】Chatsworth House and Castle Howard are examples to show that ______. A. people feel it important to spend time in the garden B. only rich people had a garden in old days C. the big gardens have lasted for a long time D. there are vegetables and plants in the gardens 【4】The winner of the competitions for best gardens this year was from _____. A. England B. Wales C. Northern Ireland D. India 【5】According to the diagram, more people prefer to grow _____ than potatoes. A. roses B. tomatoes C. herbs D. strawberries 【6】The underlined words “better transport” refers to the following except ______. A. by train B. by sea C. by car D. by bike

Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给） It was early one hot morning in 2015 when I was gently wheeled across our quiet street in my wheelchair to the taxi stand with my mother. Three weeks earlier, I had hurt my left leg at home. Now I f【1】 had an appointment(预约) for an operation to repair the bad break in hospital. I was feeling n【2】 as I'd never had surgery(外科手术) before and the thought of it worried me. After waiting for a taxi for more than 90 minutes, we were still standing across the street from our house, trying to ask for a ride. It usually only takes a few minutes, but on this Sunday taxis would pass by us either already filled with p【3】 or unwilling to take us. Perhaps it was because of my wheelchair. My mother was starting to get upset as we were fast running out of t【4】. Our appointment was 10:45 am and it would take up to 40 minutes to get to the hospital. Then a black SUV pulled over and stopped in front of us. The driver, taking a look at us, said, “You two look like you could use a lift!” He told us he’d seen us e【5】 as he was taking his son to a weekend school activity. He was now r【6】 home and saw that we were still there. With no questions asked this good man welcome us aboard. We arrived at 10:30 ---just in time for my appointment. He r【7】 my money, saying people should help one another. He left with a smile. To this day we have not crossed paths again with this friendly driver who went out of his way, but his help is kept in our minds. I am very grateful to this kind stranger who has taught me to keep watch for and help others in need.

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题） My _______ “The atlas（地图册）I grew up with was a hand-me-down from my brother, dog-eared Collins World Atlas. This became my favourite book, and I was touched that he thought I was grown-up enough to appreciate it. After wars, my atlas was considered incorrect and out of date and I had to buy a new one for school. But I still missed the well-used pages and old-book smell. I carefully tore（撕）pages out of my old atlas, and glued them on cardboard. My father helped me to cut them into jigsaw puzzles as gifts for my friends. Google search is an easy way to find various places, but I still prefer to search for exotic places in a real-turning atlas. One day it may be priceless!” Rosemary Francis “When I was 13, I wanted a horse of my own. Finally my parents softened to the idea and bought me a beautiful part-Arabian horse. To settle on a name, my father suggested I open our atlas to the page on Saudi Arabia, close my eyes and place my finger randomly（随机地）on the page. Bandar Shah（Royal Port）was a wonderful horse.” Melanie Egan “When I retired after 20 years with the same boss Reader’s Digest, I did not expect to be given a gold watch. I certainly did not expect to be given a Reader’s Digest Atlas of the World. But that is exactly what my co-workers decided I needed. For the next 15 years that atlas was used by my family to settle geographic arguments and plan trips abroad. Sadly, wear and tear forced its retirement, too.” Winston Hindmarsh 【1】Rosemary didn’t like the old alas from his brother, did she? __________________________________________________________________________. 【2】How did Rosemary make use of the old atlas? __________________________________________________________________________. 【3】What does “Bandar Shah” refer to in the atlas? ___________________________________________________________________________. 【4】From whom did Winston get the atlas? _________________________________________________________________________. 【5】In what way was the Reader’s Digest Atlas of the World used by the family? __________________________________________________________________________. 【6】If the three articles are put in one section in a magazine, please complete the title. _________________________________________________________________________.
