Do you remember the name of your kindergarten teacher? I do. Her name is Mrs. White.

I don’t remember much about what we learned in her 36 , but my mother once told me we used to 37 a lot. And I would 38 what I wrote and she would look at it and see there were so many 39 , but no red corrections. And always a star. Sometimes even a “Good”! That made my heart filled with 40 , but worried my mother. So one day when she met Mrs. White. She asked her why she never 41 my mistakes; why she never red-penciled in the wrong 42 of words or pointed out grammatical errors.

My mother said Mrs. White said “The children are just 43 to get excited about using words, about 44 sentences. I don’t want to dampen that 45 with red ink. Spelling and grammar can 46 . The wonder of words won’t …” And maybe she didn’t 47 it exactly like that because it was a long time ago and 48 my mother told me was just what she could remember.

Thanks to Mrs. White, I 49 up learning to use words with loving 50 . I had no qualms (顾虑)about writing what I meant 51 I couldn’t quite spell it out.

第三部分:阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)

请认真阅读下列短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

Besides containing attractive flowers, trees and other plants that beautify the community, eco-friendly rain gardens are healthy for the environment and the people living and working nearby.

A rain garden is not very different from a traditional garden. It is just a far more eco-friendly garden. Usually it is built lower than the ground. Rain gardens make smart use of rain and storm water by temporarily holding water from rain and storms and letting it soak slowly into the ground before it runs into streams or enters the public drinking water supply.

Thus, a rain garden keeps the water, allowing it to be used as needed by plants in the rain garden, rather than flowing immediately into nearby streams and going unused. The water will soak slowly into the ground within a day or two. This creates an advantage that the rain garden does not allow mosquitoes to breed. This is a simple, attractive, and eco-friendly “green” way to treat storm water.

What’s more, planting a rain garden helps reduce pollution and improve the environment. Without using expensive machinery and chemicals, rain gardens remove harmful chemicals in the rainwater and cut down on the amount of pollution reaching streams and rivers by up to 30%.

Native plants are recommended for rain gardens because they are more used to the local climate, soil, and water conditions. They may attract local wildlife such as native birds. Water your rain garden immediately after planting and once a week, unless you have had at least an inch of rain during the week. Once the native plants establish the necessary root system, it will require little care.

Often, local governments and private businesses develop large rain gardens in their yards and in public parks as a way to improve the environment and solve flooding problems. However, you don’t need to be a professional environmental engineer to create a rain garden. As long as you’re eco-conscious homeowners, you can help the environment by building smaller rain gardens in your yards.

56. Which of the following is the eco-friendly function of rain gardens discussed in Paragraph 4?

A. They can keep the rain and storm water.

B. They can help reduce the pollution problem.

C. They can be healthy for the people around.

D. They can make the environment more beautiful.

57. One of the main reasons why native plants are recommended is that ______.

A. they cost less and are much easier to get

B. they may attract local wildlife to come

C. they require little care from the local gardeners

D. they are more used to the local growing conditions.

58. We can infer from the passage that after native plants are planted, rain gardens ______.

A. need little water

B. need little care

C. need to be watered every day

D. needn’t be watered if there is at least an inch of rainwater per week

B

Flying across the globe, whether on business or for leisure, is usually effortless——you just have to book your ticket, pack your bags and show up at the airport with your passport. You board the plane and several cocktails and movies later, you arrive at your destination, and hopefully, your baggage does too. Here are some tips on how to be a clever traveler.

Easy check-in

Avoid the queue and check yourself in by using the MAS Web Check-In (malaysiaairlines.com) in the comfort of your own home or office. Passengers can now check in online anytime from 24 hours to 90 minutes ahead of the scheduled departure time. This is available for flights departing from all MAS stations ——except Paris, Kunming, Xiamen and Bandar Seri Begawan——to all MAS destinations. You can even select preferred seats online.

Bag hygiene

No, we’re not talking about the cleanliness of your bags! It’s the aviation talk for a bag that doesn’t carry any old baggage tags with barcodes that could confuse the baggage sensor(传感器).

If you find yourself arriving in Sydney while your bag lands in Tokyo, it could be because of your old baggage tag. Another reason why bags go missing could be the printing quality of the barcode; bags are misdirected because the sensors can’t read the codes correctly.

Less is more

Most airports around the world now set a weight limit of 32kg per piece of baggage. This will not only help protect the airline workers’ health, but also be easier for you to carry your bags around.

Avoid packing dangerous goods or placing valuables inside your check-in luggage. Ensure that locks are properly secured as a lot of baggage locks are found caught between the conveyor belts(传送带). Smaller and softer bags are usually placed inside a tray at check-in to protect the locks from contact with the conveyor belt.

59. According to the passage, airplane passengers ______.

A. can check in without going to the airport

B. have to check in 90 minutes earlier

C. are required to check in on the MAS web

D. can select their favorite seats when getting aboard

60. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “hygiene” in the passage?

A. Disappearance. B. Protection.

C. Check. D. Cleanliness.

61. Why does baggage sometimes go missing according to the passage?

a. The bags are too old and dirty.

b. The sensors can’t read the barcodes correctly.

c. The old tag is still on the bag.

d. The bags are too heavy to check.

A. a, b B. b, c C. c, d D. b, d

62. Which of the following statements is TRUR about check-in baggage?

A. Each piece can weigh 30 kg at the most.

B. Smaller and softer bags should be separated from other ones.

C. Valuable things should be kept inside a tray.

D. Bags containing dangerous things can be caught on the conveyor belts.
