MONEY—SAVING TIPS FOR DISNEY WORLD
Every time you visit Disney World , there’s something new to see : What began in 1971 as the Magic Kingdom now includes the high-tech , movie-mad Disney and Animal Kingdom . Each time the park expands（扩大）, so do your chances to spend money. How can you save ? As a family guide to Disney World, I’ve been to the park more than 25 times with my kids , and I’ve developed a few money-saving tips for you.
 
•Buy the Five-Day All-in-One Hopper Pass  Even if you’re visiting for fewer days , it’s a deal （The pass costs $ 229 for visitors aged 10 and up , $ 183 for kids aged three to nine and is free for kids under age three ）. Without the pass , you’ll have to pay separately（单独地） for Pleasure Island and the water parks . A single trip to Blizzard Beach , for example , would cost a family of four $100.
•Dine out at Lunchtime  The prices at some of the nicer restaurants , especially those in Epcot’s World Showcase , are much lower at noontime than at any other time. It’s wise to make reservations （预定） before you leave home . Call 407-W-DISNEY .
•Become a Gold Card Member  For $ 65 , you can get a Magic Kingdom Club Gold Card （call 1-800-56-DISNEY）. Cardholders get up to 20% off Disney hotel rooms , plus prices on character breakfast , theme park tickets and goods from Disney stores .
•Don’t Pay Extra to See a Character  Character-theme dinner shows are expensive , costing a family of four about $ 140 , and even a character breakfast , where Mickey or Donald Duck joins you for cakes , can set you back $ 50. If you don’t have enough money, try to meet the characters inside the theme parks and at free in-park shows . You can watch the Diamond Horseshoe show , for example , in the Magic Kingdom for no additional cost , while the similarly themed Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue needs expensive tickets .
•Wait Until the End of Your Trip to Buy Souvenirs （纪念品） By then , the kids will really know what they want , and you won’t waste money on expensive things .
52．Suppose a Disney hotel room costs $400 a night, then a Gold Card Member needs at least ______ for a night.
A．$ 65   B．$320   C．$183   D．$229
53．Which of the following is closet in meaning to the underlined phrase “set you back”?
A．Offering you.   B．Saving you.
C．Costing you.   D．Returning you.
54．If you are short of money, the writer suggests you should NOT ____.
A．buy things for the kids from Disney stores
B．buy souvenirs at the beginning of the trip
C．make a trip to Blizzard Beach
D．have your meals out at noon time.
55．The writer of the passage must be a （n） ______.
A．guide in Disney World   B．character in a theme park
C．newcomer to Disney World  D．experienced visitor

（C）
A “blogger” is a person who writes on an Internet computer web site called a “blog”. The word “blog” is a short way of saying web log （网络日志）， or personal web site. Anyone can start a blog, and they can write about anything they like.
There are millions of blogs on the Internet today. They provide news, information and ideas to many people who read them. They have links to other web sites. And they provide a place for people to write their ideas and talk about the ideas of others.
A research company called Perseus has studied more than 3,000 web logs. It says that blogs are most popular with girls. They use them to let their friends know what is happening in their life. The study also says that more than 100,000 bloggers stopped taking part in the activity after a year.
However, some people develop serious blogs to give political（政治的） and other ideas. For example, the Republican and Democratic parties in the southern state of Kentucky recently started their own blogs. And American companies are beginning to use blogs to advertise their products.
At the same time, some long-standing blogs have ended. Last week, blogging leader Dave Winer closed his free blog service, weblogs. com. He says the site became too expensive to continue. He started the blog four years ago, and thousands of people had written on it.
One blog that is still going strong is called Rebecca’s Pocket. It gives much useful information to readers. Rebecca Blood started the web site in 1999. She wrote about the history of blogs on the site. That article led to a book called “The Weblog Handbook”. It has been translated into four languages so far.
Ms Blood says Rebecca’s Pocket gets about 30,000 visitors a month. She writes about anything and everything —politics, culture and movies. She recently provided medical advice. And she wrote about how to stop people from stealing money from online bank accounts.
56．The text is written mainly to introduce ________.
A．how to write blogs to the readers.
B．something about blogs to the readers
C．a way of reading on blogs on the Internet
D．the reason why many blogs have ended
57．According to this passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A．Politicians don’t use blogs at all.
B．A lot of bloggers no longer write or read blogs.
C．Those who like to use blogs are mostly girls.
D．Dave Winer closed his “weblogs. com” because of money shortage.
58．The reason why Rebecca’s Pocket is still going strong is that _____.
A．it was started by a great woman in 1999
B．it is mainly about the history of handbooks
C．it has at least four different kinds of languages
D．it provides plenty of useful information and advice

三、阅读与表达（共10分，每小题2分）
阅读短文，根据其内容回答问题。
New rules and behaviour standards （行为规范） for middle school students came out in March. Middle schools are going to use a new way to decide who the top students are. The best students won’t only have high marks. They will also be kids who don’t dye （染） their hair, smoke or drink. The following are some of the new rules.
Tell the truth  Have you ever cheated（作弊） in an exam? Don’t do it again! That’s not something an honest student should do. If you have played computer games for two hours in your room, don’t tell your parents you have done your homework.
Do more at school Good students love animals and care for other people. April is Bird-loving Month in China. Is your school doing anything to celebrate it? You should join! In that way, you can learn more about animals and how to protect them. When more people work together, it’s more interesting for everyone.
Did you quarrel with your teammates when your basketball team lost? Only working together can make your team stronger. Be friendly to the people you are with. Try to think of others, not only yourself.
Be open to new ideas Have you ever thought that people could live on the moon? Maybe you’ll discover Earth II someday. Don’t look down on new ideas. Everyone’s ideas are important. You should welcome them because new ideas can make life better for everyone.
Protect yourself Has anybody ever taken money from one of your classmates? Don’t let it happen to you. If you have to go back home late, you should let your parents know.
Use the Internet carefully The Internet can be very useful for your studies. But some things on the Internet aren’t for kids, so try to look at web pages that are good for you. You can use the Web for fun or homework. If you want to find any good web sites for children, here are some:
http ://kids. eastday. com，http ://www. chinakids. net. com，http: //www. cycnet. com
11．Will the best students only have high marks?
_________________________________________________________
12．What is the main idea of the fourth paragraph?
_________________________________________________________
13．What can web sites do for children?
_________________________________________________________

One possible version:
I really feel worried about Liu Lei. I don’t think it is right for him to do things like that.
As students, we should study hard to get more knowledge. So I think he should listen to the teachers carefully and take notes in class. When he has any questions, he can put up his hand and ask the teachers. Use his head as often as possible, and he’ll understand what the teachers say.
After class he should do his homework first and go to bed as soon as he finishes it. Of course I hope he will not spend too much time playing computer games or other things, then he won’t feel sleepy in class any more. I’m sure he’ll make some progress.
