For children living in Germany the first day of kindergarten is filled with sweets and surprises! It is a day of celebration for the whole family. Like American children, German children start the first day dressed in their best clothes. After that, their day is very different.
In Germany parents go to the school with their children on the first day. That way the child is not alone. The parents stay at the school the whole day.
When they arrive each child receives a zuckertute. A zuckertute is a cone-shaped goodie package filled with toys and sweets. The top is covered with flowers. It is usually large and sometimes stands as tall as the child! The zuckertute is brought to school by the parents before the school day begins. It is tradition for children to have their picture taken holding their zuckertute. Class pictures are also taken on the first day of school. The first day is spent exploring the classroom and getting to know one another.
When the day is over, children and parents go home for a family party. The party usually takes place at home, but sometimes it is held at a restaurant. Brothers, sisters, grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles are invited to the party. In small towns neighbors even come to congratulate the child. Everyone brings gifts for the guest of honor.

Ashley Power’s mother bought a computer for her when she was eight. When she was thirteen, she was surfing the Internet regularly, but she couldn’t find anywhere for teenagers to meet and talk. And one day she thought, “If I had my own website, I’d make it a really interesting site for teenagers.”

For a lot of people, winning the lottery is the American dream. But for many lottery winners, the reality can turn out to be more like a nightmare. William Post won $16.2 million in the Pennsylvania lottery in 1988 but now lives simply on his Social Security.
“I wish it’d never happened. It was a total nightmare”, explains Post. Both friends and family went as far as going to court to try and get their hands on his money. His brother Jeffery was arrested and imprisoned in Florida for hiring a hit man to kill him, hoping to inherit a share of the winnings. And as if that wasn’t bad enough, his other siblings bothered him until he eventually agreed to invest in their businesses. These ventures brought no money back, and resulted in further tension on his relationship with his brothers and sisters.
Post says after his win he went wild. He bought expensive cars and all sorts of electronic gadgetry. On bad advice, he also borrowed money in advance of actually receiving his lottery win. Within a year of winning his fortune, he was $1million in debt.
Post even spent time in jail for firing a gun over the head of a bill collector. Post admitted he was both careless and foolish, and tried too hard to please his family. He eventually declared bankruptcy.
Now he lives quietly on a $450 a month disability pension and food stamps. He spends much of his day watching classic movies on television. But Post isn’t complaining. He’s content. “I’ve got peace of mind and you never realize how valuable that is until you lose it,” he says. “Lotteries don’t mean anything to me.”
28. Why was Post’s winning the lottery a nightmare ?
A. His former girlfriend accused him for the money.B. His family got their hands on the money.
C. His investment bought no money back. D. Winning the lottery ruined his life.
29. Why was Post sent into prison?
A. He got his money back by violence. B. He threatened a bill collector with a gun.
C. He failed to pay off his debt on time.D. He tried to hurt his family members.
30. We can infer from the last paragraph that _______.
A. Post isn’t content with his present lifeB. Post’s nightmare has come to an end
C. Post gets on well with his familyD. Post is addicted to watching movies
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?

Are you a messy eater, who always ends up with bits of food or stains splattered on their clothing? Then perhaps a new pocket washing machine - believed to be the world’s smallest - is the answer to your problems.
The newly designed Coton handy washer, produced by Chinese electronics firm Haier, is the same-size as an electric shaver and can remove anything from dirt to those dreaded red wine stains, according to People’s Daily Online.
It is powered by three AAA batteries and aims to prevent those frustratingly long waits in the dry cleaners by targeting troublesome stains such as coffee, grass or oil. The device, created by AQUA (a subsidiary of Haier Group in China), is already flying off the shelves in Japan where it costs 10,800 Yen or £60.
The portable gadget - which weighs just 200g - uses a method called ‘squeeze washing’ which removes stains in 30 seconds. It works by first applying liquid detergent on a piece of kitchen paper, before washing over it with the nozzle of the Coton device. It then pumps a small amount of water over the stain at 700 beats a minute.
Although this pocket-sized device is thought to be the smallest washing machine created, it is not the first invention aimed at cleaning clothes on the go. In 2013, Australian Ash Newland created the ‘Scrubba’, a small bag that can wash laundry in just five minutes.
32. What is Coton handy washer?
A. A small washing machine. B. A small bag that can wash laundry.
C. A newly designed electric shaver. D. A messy eater.
33. What makes Coton handy washer very special?
A. It is small in size. B. It can clean clothes.
C. It is expensive. D. It is powered by batteries.
34. What is the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A. How heavy the Coton handy washer is. B. Why people invent the Coton handy washer.
C. How the Coton handy washer works. D. Where people use the Coton handy washer.
35. What can we know about the Coton handy washer?
A. It is invented in Japan. B. It works faster than the ‘Scrubba’.
C. It is useful for messy eaters. D. It uses a lot of water.

saving第二节 书面表达
Dear editor,
I’m a middle school student. I’ve just read an article about saving tigers in a newspaper. It says that the number of tigers is decreasing quickly in our country. However, just several days ago, I saw some people selling bones of tigers by the roadside. That’ s really terrible.
Tigers are protected animals in our country. But some people kill them in order to make money. Besides, too many trees have been cut down, which has destroyed the places where tigers used to live. Tigers are dying out.
The government must take some measures to protect tigers and other wild lives. We should try our best to make our earth pleasant and peaceful, not only for human beings but for all living creatures.
Yours faithfully,
Li Hua
