　　When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. Californian girl Anabelle Lockwood, 10, did exactly that. Anabelle started a lemon business called The Loco Lemon. She sold self-made lemon juice in her town and became popular.

　　Anabelle came up with the idea when talking with friends. “It’s made by my grandmother,” she said. “Everyone loves it.” Her father helped her build a booth (摊位). Along with her friends, Anabelle spent her summer selling lemonade in order to buy a new bike that she has wanted for a long time.

　　Anabelle’s mother Rene is a manager at a local company. She found a few local shops that would help. Anabelle sold her lemon juice outside the shops for three hours a day. Soon, her popularity spread in the town. People all fell in love with her lemonade. But later a neighbor was angry to say Anabelle couldn’t sell her lemonade in the neighborhood anymore.

　　The government is also now asking her to have a license for her business. To start the business, the business license will cost her $3,500. Rene asked the local health department about how to make the lemonade business legal for events like weddings(婚礼) as they received a bride (新娘) who wanted Anabelle’s lemonade at her wedding. Besides, she also has to pay for other license up to $500.

　　However, she believed that Anabelle would need the proper license, just like other food sellers. Health professional people don’t usually worry about kids’ lemonade businesses. But, in Anabelle’s case, they agreed she needed a license. “Lemonade helps kill bacteria (细菌),” said Jessica. “However, company events and weddings are not simply about a child sitting on a corner and selling lemonade.”

　　54. Why did Anabelle start selling lemon juice at first?

　　A. For her grandmother to make money. B. For her friends to enjoy.

　　It’s a book series of seven books. The stories are about Narnia, a wonderful land where animals walk and trees can talk. Humans sometimes enter this world by chance. Kids who go to Narnia in the stories meet all kinds of magical animals, including strangely tall people. In each book there is a war between two sides, one bad that wants to turn Narnia into a hell; the other good, which wants the land to stay the same. The kid-heroes join the war.

　　When taking an elevator(电梯), do you often push the “close” button? You hope by pushing it, the elevator door will close faster. But what if the button is actually fake(假的)?

　　Karen Penafiel is the director of the US National Elevator Industry. She said that elevators’ “close” buttons are a complete lie, at least in the US, and that doors will not close any faster no matter how hard you push.

　　In the 1990s, the Americans with Disabilities Act was passed in the US. It means all elevators have to stay open long enough to allow disabled people to enter. Only US firefighters and elevator workers can use the buttons with special keys.

　　But the buttons aren’t completely useless. According to psychologists(心理学家), fake buttons can make you feel better . They give you a sense of control that can help lower stress. That’s why some other buttons in our lives are fake, too.

　　For example , many offices in the US have fake thermostats(温控器). People may feel better when they think they can control the temperature in their workspace. You were told that traffic light buttons could help make the traffic light faster. But they may not really work, either.

　　However, even when people know these little “white lies”, they still push fake buttons. As long as the doors finally close, it seems worth the try.

　　John Kounios is a psychology professor at Drexel University in the US. He told The New York Times that he always pushes the traffic light buttons. “Well, I’ve got nothing else to do while waiting. So why not push the button to seeif this one will work?”

　　62. According to Karen Penafiel, ________.

　　A. elevators’ “close” buttons in the US don’t really work

　　B. elevators in the US are useless

　　C. using an elevator may not save your time

　　D. elevators’ “close” button only works when you push it hard

　　63. Psychologists think that fake buttons ________.

　　A. don’t help in our daily lives

　　B. give people a sense of control

　　C. may make people feel unsafe

　　D. can make people nervous

　　64. The examples of the traffic light buttons talk about ________.

　　A. how to make traffic light buttons work

　　B. fake buttons are completely useless in our daily lives

　　C. fake buttons can help people psychologically

　　D. pushing a traffic light button is a very interesting activity

　　65. If we put the passage into three parts , which of the following is the best ?

　　(①=Para.(自然段)1 ②=Para. 2 ③=Para. 3 ④=Para. 4 ⑤=Para. 5 ⑥=Para. 6 ⑦=Para. 7)

　　V. 任务型阅读。(每小题2分，共8分)

　　阅读下文并回答问题。

　　After this short but happy winter vacation, you must have been rich again as all of you have received lucky money from families at home. Properly using it is very important and now it is a great time to learn how to spend your lucky money wisely. When you consider buying something you want, ask yourself these questions:

　　How much do you really want it? Seeing a $99 gum (口香糖) machine, Ben wanted it. But after thinking about it, he decided that it would be exciting only for a day or two. “Besides, it’s not possible for me to eat so much gum,” he said wisely. Finally, he didn’t buy the gum machine.

　　Do you still want it a week later? If the thing passes the “really-wanting-it” test, try to wait for some time to see how strong the desire (欲望) is. This works for grown-ups, too!

　　How will you pay for it? After the first two steps, Ben found he really wanted a toy pirate ship (海盗船), but it cost $50. He had $22 in his pocket and gets $1.50 a week to spend. His mother helped him work out how many weeks he would need to save to get the ship: 19. He gave it up, too.

　　Can you get it cheaper? After deciding to buy it, it is necessary for you to look for less expensive ways to buy it: search for what you want on the internet or in flea markets (跳蚤市场). Sometimes you can find the same thing at a much lower price.If these work well, they can save you a lot of money. You will be a really smart shopper.

　　You may have already heard about the trimester system in Western universities. For example, in the UK, a school year is now divided into 80 semesters(学期) -- the autumn semester, the spring semester and the summer semester each including 10 weeks. It is believed that it can bring more convenience to the students.

　　Now China is also following the steps in its 81 universities. In fact, many of the country’s key universities have already started to add the third semester into their timetables. 82 ,our trimester system is a little different from that in the West.Take CUPL as an example. It has already 83 to try the new way this month. But only students in Grade Two can enjoy the third semester. This is quite different from the West.

　　Sandy, a teacher at CUPL, told The Beijing News that during summer terms students would be encouraged to take classes they enjoy. They are 84 encouraged to go into workplace. It’s said that this new way will help students to get their work plans at a young 85 . However, some students worry that summer term courses are too full, pointing out that they would have to attend classes every day 86 having time to review what they’ve learned.This is why Lu suggests that students don’t overdo it during summer.“One course is the best.” she advises. It’s a big change.But no matter 87 big the change is, how you plan your studies is the most important.
