The water tap was leaking (漏水) again, and the noise was driving Cassie crazy.
Cassie looked at her watch. It was nearly nine o’clock. She climbed out of bed and stood on a chair by the shelf. Her mother’s Mr. Fix-It Book was on the top shelf. She found the page she was looking for and then began to read carefully.
Next, Cassie opened a box in the kitchen and picked out the tools she needed—a hammer, a wrench (扳手), and several small things. It was not easy for her to repair the tap, and she tried several times. Finally, the water tap was in pieces. One by one, she carefully laid them out on the table. That way she would know how they went back.
Cassie worked late into the night. At one point, she thought she was done. Oops! A small piece that she had forgotten still lay on the table. Slowly Cassie took the water tap apart (分开) one more time. This time she made sure everything was in place. She turned the water tap on and then off. One... two... three... She waited a full minute. There was no leak! Cassie smiled and put the tools back into the box. Then she went to bed and fell asleep.
The next morning, Dad was in the kitchen when Cassie got up.
“Notice anything, Dad?” she asked.
He looked around and listened. “Hmm, something’s missing... I can’t find out what it is... Wait, it's too quiet in here!”
“That’s right,” Cassie said. “Something is missing. I fixed the water tap. It doesn’t leak any more.”

B. Choose the best answer and complete the passage (选择最恰当的选项完成短文)：（6分）
When I was about 12 years old, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to tell me about my weak points. Week by week her list became longer: I was very short, and I wasn’t a good student, I 66 , and so on. I tried to stand all of these as long as I could. Finally, I became very 67 . I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.
He listened to me quietly, and then asked, “Are the things that she said true or not? Jane, have you ever thought about what you’re really like? Now you have that girl’s 68 . Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things that she said.”
I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I found that 69 of the things were true but the others I couldn’t agree with. Some of them I couldn’t change, like being very short, but many of them I could. I wanted to change the bad things, and 70 I knew something about myself in a very clear way.
I brought the list back to my father. He refused to take it. “That’s just for you,” he said, “You know better than anyone else the truths about yourself, but sometimes others’ opinions are also important, so you have to learn how to 71 , and not just close your ears in anger and feel hurt. When something that is said about you is true, you’ll find that it will be of help to you.” I have remembered my father’s advice at many important moments. I have never had a better piece of advice in my whole life.
66. A. helped others B. talked too much C. worked hard D. ran fast
67. A. angry B. bored C. quiet D. worried
68. A. ambitions B. ideas C. love D. business
69. A. none B. few C. half D. all
70. A. once again B. in the near future C. for the first time D. in the end
71. A. cry B. enjoy C. live D. listen
C. 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，首字母已给出）：（6分）
I have a plan for my future. Whether it will ever happen, I don’t care. What matters is I have a plan.
I want to own a sandwich shop with a flat above that I can live in, in some really interesting part of the country. I want to spend my days running the sandwich shop, and my nights writing what comes to my mind. I want to play light music all the time and spend my breaks talking to c 72 and getting to know them.
My sandwich shop would become a home to artists and other interesting people. I want to spend nights writing s 73 about the people I meet. I want to give the bread I haven’t sold out each day to the local shelter, and I want to open a little bookshop right next door. Maybe the bookshop won’t make money, but I’ll keep it o 74 anyway, just for the love of it. The important part is that I control my future.
But I know I probably won’t be able to make it in the r 75 world just being a writer, but I’ll never give up my dream. I can’t live my mother’s life, working in an office all day. I love and respect her for what she does, but a job like h 76 would drive me crazy. Likewise, I can’t be like my dad, selling other people’s books to make ends meet. I love and respect him for what he does, but that kind of job has nothing to do with writing at all.
The reason I write is to s 77 my ideas; I need to have control over my dream and write for myself, speaking for no one else. My life and dream are all I have.
D. Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答问题）：（7分）
Funny Inventions
Time Temp Glasses
Are you a person who wants to know the time and temperature during the day? You might like Time Temp Glasses. These special glasses show the time above your right eye and the temperature above your left eye. It is surely easier than wearing a wristwatch, and you never have to guess the temperature.
Alarm Fork
Do you eat too quickly? Do you eat too much? How can the Alarm Forkhelp you? Aren’t you curious? Well, this special fork has two lights: one green and one red. When the green light is on, it’s OK to take a bite of food. The fork “knows” when you take a bite, and soon the red light goes on. Wait for the green light before you take another bite.
Smell This
How do you know if your breath smells nice, or if it smells bad? It’s difficult to know, because it’s very hard to smell the air that comes out of your own mouth. Smell This is useful for this situation. Smell This covers your nose and your mouth, so it is easy to smell the air that comes out of your mouth. Does your breath smell nice, or do you need a piece of gum?
Banana Suitcase
Had this ever happened to you? You put a banana in your lunch bag in the morning, and when you open the bag at noon, the banana looks like someone drove a car over it. If you put your banana in the Banana Suitcase, this will never happen. It keeps a banana safe, delicious and looking like a banana!
78. How many funny inventions are mentioned in the passage?
79. When you wear Time Temp Glasses, can you see the time or the temperature above your left eye?
80. What should you do when the red light on Alarm Fork goes on?
81. What can Smell This help you do?
82. Can Banana Suitcase make the banana taste better than before?
