Most dictionaries will tell you a number of things about a language. There are three important things. These three things are spelling, pronunciation and meaning.
First, a dictionary will tell you the spelling of a word. If you are not sure about the spelling of a word, you can try to find the correct spelling in a dictionary. Words are listed in an alphabetical(字母表的) order--- a, b, c and so on. For example, on a dictionary page the “poor” comes before “poverty” and the word “poverty” comes before the “power”. The words are always given in alphabetical order. The second thing, a dictionary will tell you the pronunciation. Most dictionaries give phonetic (语音的), or sound alphabet. The phonetic alphabet(音标) shows pronunciation. The third thing, a dictionary will tell you the meaning of words. You can look up a word and find out what it means. Many words have more than one meaning, and a good dictionary will tell you all of the word’s meanings. For example, in English the common word “get” has over 20 different meanings.
21. Many words have_______.
A. one meaning B. several meanings C. few meanings D. no meaning
22. A good dictionary will tell you_____
A. more of word’s pronunciation B. more of grammar

The Chinese word “Shanzhai” means a small mountain village, but now it becomes an accepted name for fakes (假货), after “Shanzhai Cell-phones” produced by small workshops in southern China became popular in the mainland market over the past two years.
Besides “Shanzhai” electronic products, there are “Shanzhai” movies, “Shanzhai” stars and even a “Shanzhai” Spring Festival Gala (联欢晚会), a copy of the 25-year-old traditional show presented by CCTV on Chinese Lunar New Year’s Eve.
“Shanzhai” has become a culture of its own, meaning anything that imitates something famous.
In Chongqing, “Shanzhai” version “Bird’s Nest” and “Water Cube” woven by farmers with bamboo attract wide attention from tourists. Both are copies of the famous Olympic buildings in Beijing.
A literature critic said that taking the “Shanzhai” Gala as an example, when the traditional CCTV program becomes less and less attractive to the audience, the “Shanzhai” version appears timely to attract people. “Although it is often connected with poor techniques and operation, ‘Shanzhai’ culture meets the psychological needs of common people and could be a comfort to their minds,” he said.
To the mainstream (主流的) culture, the rise of “Shanzhai” culture is a challenge and a motivation (动力). People believe different kinds of cultures developing together is a perfect situation and it is for the public to choose.
25. The Chinese word “Shanzhai” may have started with ______.
A. Spring Festival Gala B. electronic products C. fake cell-phone D. Olympic buildings
26. According to the passage, “Shanzhai” culture refers to ______.
A. the action that a person imitates(仿照) famous people
B. products with poor techniques and quality
C. those similar names to famous brands(品牌)
D. anything that imitates something famous
27. We can infer that the mainstream culture ______.
A. is held back by “Shanzhai” culture
B. is the challenge of “Shanzhai” culture
C. may develop faster because of the challenge of “Shanzhai” culture
D. will be replaced by “Shanzhai” culture
28. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
A. “Shanzhai” culture takes on life of its own B. “Shanzhai” culture will definitely(注定地) disappear
C. “Shanzhai” culture — the mainstream culture D. “Shanzhai” culture — the mountain village culture

One of my wonderful memories is about a Christmas gift. Unlike other gifts, it came without wrap(包装).
On September 11th, 1958, Mum gave birth to Richard. After she brought him home from hospital, she put him in my lap, saying. "I promised you a gift, and here it is." What an honor! I turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own. I played with it day and night. I sang to it. I told it stories. I told it over and over how much I loved it!
One morning, however, I found its bed empty. My doll was gone! I cried for it. Mum wept and told me that the poor little thing had been sent to a hospital. It had a fever. For several days, I heard Mum and Dad whispering such words as "hopeless", "pitiful", and "dying", which sounded ominous.
Christmas was coming. "Don’t expect any presents this year." Dad said, pointing at the socks I hung in the living room. "If your baby brother lives, that'll be Christmas enough." As he spoke, his eyes were filled with tears. I'd never seen him cry before.
The phone rang early on Christmas morning. Dad jumped out of bed to answer it. From my bedroom I heard him say. "What? He's all right?" He hung up and shouted upstairs. “The hospital said we can bring Richard home!"
"Thank God.'" I heard Mum cry.
From the upstairs window, I watched my parents rush out to the car. I had never seen them happy. And I was also full of joy. What a wonderful day! My baby doll would be home. I ran downstairs. My sacks still hung there flat. But I knew they were not empty; they were filled with love!

A. He became four years old B. He got a Christmas gift
C. He got a baby brother D. He received a doll
34.What does the underlined word “ominous” in Paragraph 3 probably mean？
A. Fearful B. Boring C. Difficult D. Impossible.
35. What is the passage mainly about?
A. A sad Christmas day B. A special Christmas gift.
C. Life with a lovely baby. D. Memories of a happy family
