　　Why are black cats bad?

 

　　November 17 is an important day for black cats in Italy. An animal rights group has named that day “Black Cat Day” to stop the killing of thousands of the cats. Why do people   75  the animal so much? It is because people believe black cats bring bad luck if they walk across your path.

 

　　The black cat is just one of the   76  of superstition(迷信）.You may already know that Western people don’t like the number 13. They also believe that walking under a ladder, opening an umbrella indoors and   77   a mirror can also bring bad luck.[来源:学科网]

They believe it can bring good luck,” Macaskill said. “But the horseshoe needs to be the right way up. The luck   79  if it is upside down.”

　　C. 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)（14分）

 

　　Last spring I was walking in a park. A short distance ahead of me was a mom and her three-year-old daughter. The little girl was holding a string that was attached to a helium balloon(氢气球).

 

　　All of a sudden, a strong w  81   took the balloon from the little girl. I though she would scream and c  82   .

 

　　But, no! As the little girl turned to watch her balloon rise into the sky, she h  83    shouted: “Wow!”

 

　　I didn’t realize it at that moment, but that little girl had taught me something.

 

　　Later that day, I r  84    a phone call from a person with news of an unexpected problem. I felt like saying:“Oh no, what should we do?” But thinking of that little girl, I found myself saying: “Wow, that’s interesting! How can I help you?” One thing is for sure---life is always going to put us off balance with things we don’t expect. However, how we respond(反应) to them is our c  85   . We can choose to be frustrated(沮丧的) or fascinated.

 

　　No matter what the situation, a fascinated “Wow!’ will always b   86    a frustrated “Oh, no.” So the next time you experience one of life’s unexpected guests, think of that little girl and make it a “Wow!” i  87    of an “oh, no.” The “Wow!” response always works.

 

　　D. Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题)  (12分)

 

　　Happiness is a feeling that lights up your eyes, makes your steps light and makes you want to sing for no reason. Everyone wants to be happy. But sometimes, a guest comes in without invitation. It’s unhappiness. Don’t let it get you down. Send it away.

 

　　When you are happy, the world feels like a better place. As the saying goes: When you smile, the world smiles with you; when you cry, you cry alone. Wearing a smile makes you more charming(迷人的)and helps you to win lots of friends. A good mood（心情）always gives you hope, which makes trouble and problems easier to handle.

 

　　No matter how happy you are, it’s normal to feel angry, sad or gloomy once in a while. Life is full of ups and downs. We can’t change the way life is, but we can do our best to change a bad situation into a good one. To help us do this, it’s good to know some of the factors（因素）that influence happiness.

 

　　One of the biggest factors is social relationships. People who are close to family and friends are happier than people who don’t have those relationships. Talking and sharing is a good way to relax and build confidence. Knowing someone is there for you will make you braver and more outgoing.

 

　　Another factor is work or school. If you enjoy school, even if you have lots of homework or extra classes, you will feel that your school life is meaningful and happy. But if you hate school, your negative attitude（消极的态度）may cause you to feel bored and upset that you hate to do so much work.

 

　　A third factor is your attitude towards life. How do you feel if you fail in an exam? Maybe you think it’s unfair because you always study and should have got a good mark. You can’t stop blaming（责备）yourself. Or, maybe you accept it. You go through the paper carefully, find out why you made stupid mistakes, and tell yourself, “Take it easy! I’ll do better next time!” Your attitude makes a big difference.

 

　　Do you smile a lot or wear a long face most of the time?

 

　　88. Happiness is a feeling, isn’t it?

 

　　____________, _______________________________.

 

　　89. What makes you more charming and gives you hope?

 

　　____________________________________________.

 

　　90. What does the underlined sentence mean according to paragraph 3?

 

　　________________________________________________________________.

 

　　91. What can we do when we can’t change the way life is?

 

　　________________________________________________________________.

 

　　92. How many factors influence happiness? What are they?

 

　　________________________________________________________________________. 93. How do you make yourself happy in your daily life? Give an example.

 

　　________________________________________________________________________.

 

　　VII. Writing (作文)  (共20分)

 

　　94. Write a passage on “A letter to my headmaster/headmistress ” in at least 60 words according to the given situation (以“给校长的一封信”为题，写一篇不少于60词的文章。)

 

　　提示：初中学习阶段肯定给你留下许多的回忆。有甜美，有苦涩，这些都是宝贵的人生经历。在即将告别你的初中生活，请你以Susan的名义给你的校长写一封信，分享一件让你最难忘的校园活动以及提出一个你最希望学校改进的方面。
