四、阅读理解（每小题2分，满分20分）
Think of a simple object—a piece of chalk, for example. Are you remembering its name, its shape, its color or its size Arc you remembering what it is used for, or the sound it makes when the teacher writes on the blackboard Scientists say that memory includes different parts of the brain, such as language and the ability of sense. They believe that you begin to create a memory when you notice something in your senses. Then messages are sent to different brain cells (细胞) which join together to form connections. A new connection goes into your shorter memory. It is stored there for about 30 seconds, and then it is either lost or stored in your long term memory.
Having a good memory means making lots of connections and storing them in your long term memory. To do this, you need to keep your brain in good shape. Eat plenty of brain food such as fish oil, fruit and vegetables. Laughter also makes your brain more active. Also, don’t forget to exercise. So do some sports or just move around a lot in the house. Finally, get plenty of sleep. This will make your memories grow stronger.
When you want to remember information, you must pay special attention. Use your senses-sight, smell, hearing and touch, and keep repeating the information. To do well in your exams this year, turn off the TV, silence your mobile phones, and review your work regularly. To remember something special, use your imagination to create visual connections. For example, you need to take a pencil, an eraser, your ID card and chips to your next exam. Imagine the ID card as the body of an animal, the pencil its long neck, and the eraser its head. Your animal is hungry, so now imagine it eating a bag of chips. It may sound crazy, but it’s fun and it works. Another way is to do something different to your room. Turn a picture upside-down, or tie a sock around the door handle to remind yourself of something to remember!
61．At the beginning, the writer gives an example to ________.
A．let readers remember the word B．show the importance of chalk
C．lead in the topic of the article D．make readers know his favorite
62．Which of the following can make our memories grow stronger
A．Laughter. B．Plenty of sleep. C．Lots of exercise. D．Plenty of brain food.
63．What does the underlined “visual” mean in Chinese
A．相关的 B．必要的 C．感觉的 D．视觉的
64．The main idea of the last paragraph is ________.
A．how to remember new information B．how to do well in exams
C．why to review your work D．what to eat to make memories stronger
65．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A．Memory has nothing to do with languages. B．A picture of eating chips is the most useful.
C．Laughter can help to improve our memory. D．Our brain is difficult to keep in good shape.

Typhoons (台风) are some of the worst storms, usually around the Pacific Ocean (太平洋) and the South China Sea. Most happen in July, August and September.
How does a typhoon happen When lots of sea water gets hot in the summer sun, it evaporates (蒸发) into the air. This makes the air hotter. 72 Then cooler air around it rushes in. It fills the space that is left. After the air gets warmer, it starts to move quickly, making wind. The wind goes in circles and it keeps moving higher in the sky. The warmer the air gets, the quicker the wind moves. And when wind moves faster than 30 metres a second, a typhoon begins.
A typhoon has two parts. One is called the “eye”. 73 The other part is the wall of clouds around the eye. Here are the strongest winds and hardest rains.
Typhoons are very dangerous. In November in 2013, Typhoon Haiyan killed 6,000 people in Philippines. 74

四、阅读理解
Think of a simple object—a piece of chalk, for example. Are you remembering its name, its shape, its color or its size Arc you remembering what it is used for, or the sound it makes when the teacher writes on the blackboard Scientists say that memory includes different parts of the brain, such as language and the ability of sense. They believe that you begin to create a memory when you notice something in your senses. Then messages are sent to different brain cells (细胞) which join together to form connections. A new connection goes into your shorter memory. It is stored there for about 30 seconds, and then it is either lost or stored in your long term memory.
Having a good memory means making lots of connections and storing them in your long term memory. To do this, you need to keep your brain in good shape. Eat plenty of brain food such as fish oil, fruit and vegetables. Laughter also makes your brain more active. Also, don’t forget to exercise. So do some sports or just move around a lot in the house. Finally, get plenty of sleep. This will make your memories grow stronger.
When you want to remember information, you must pay special attention. Use your senses-sight, smell, hearing and touch, and keep repeating the information. To do well in your exams this year, turn off the TV, silence your mobile phones, and review your work regularly. To remember something special, use your imagination to create visual connections. For example, you need to take a pencil, an eraser, your ID card and chips to your next exam. Imagine the ID card as the body of an animal, the pencil its long neck, and the eraser its head. Your animal is hungry, so now imagine it eating a bag of chips. It may sound crazy, but it’s fun and it works. Another way is to do something different to your room. Turn a picture upside-down, or tie a sock around the door handle to remind yourself of something to remember!

A．let readers remember the word B．show the importance of chalk
C．lead in the topic of the article D．make readers know his favorite
62．Which of the following can make our memories grow stronger

64．The main idea of the last paragraph is ________.
A．how to remember new information B．how to do well in exams
C．why to review your work D．what to eat to make memories stronger

There are lots of natural disasters every year. 71
Typhoons (台风) are some of the worst storms, usually around the Pacific Ocean (太平洋) and the South China Sea. Most happen in July, August and September.
How does a typhoon happen When lots of sea water gets hot in the summer sun, it evaporates (蒸发) into the air. This makes the air hotter. 72 Then cooler air around it rushes in. It fills the space that is left. After the air gets warmer, it starts to move quickly, making wind. The wind goes in circles and it keeps moving higher in the sky. The warmer the air gets, the quicker the wind moves. And when wind moves faster than 30 metres a second, a typhoon begins.
A typhoon has two parts. One is called the “eye”. 73 The other part is the wall of clouds around the eye. Here are the strongest winds and hardest rains.
Typhoons are very dangerous. In November in 2013, Typhoon Haiyan killed 6,000 people in Philippines. 74
What should we do when a typhoon hits
Stay inside. 75

【答案】例文
What to do in an earthquake
Earthquakes always happen suddenly, so it is difficult to warn people about them. Here is some advice for you to keep safe.
When you’re inside, you mustn’t jump out of high buildings. You can hide under a table. And you should stay away from windows and heavy furniture. You’d better leave the building quickly when the ground stops shaking. But don’t use the lifts.
When you are outside, you’d better keep away from bridges, trees, street lights or power lines. When you’re in a car or bus, you should stay in it. When you are in the mountains, you should be careful of falling rocks. What’s more, you must keep calm, be brave and be helpful.
If you follow the advice, you can be safe and help save others.
