四、阅读理解（20小题，每小题2分，共40分）
阅读下面四篇语言材料，然后按文后要求做题。
A
A girl went to her father to ask his advice. She was having a hard time in life, and it seemed that as soon as one problem disappeared, another one appeared in its place.
Her father, a cook( a person who cooks food), took her into the kitchen. He poured water into three pans(平底锅) and put them on to boil. After the water boiled, he put some carrots into the first pan, some eggs into the second pan and coffee into the last one. He waited without saying a word.
After 20 minutes, her father turned off the stove(炉子), took out the carrots and eggs and put them in a bowl. He poured the coffee into a cup.
He asked his daughter:“Dear, what do you see? ”
“Carrots, eggs and coffee, ” she replied.
“Touch the carrots, ”he told her. She did and felt that the carrots were soft. After that he asked her to take an egg and break it. She found that the egg was hard. At last, her father asked her to taste the coffee.
She asked:“ What’s the meaning, Father? ”
Her father said: “As you see, each thing reacted differently to the boiling water. The strong and hard carrots became soft and weak after boiling. The fragile(脆弱的) eggs became hard after being cooked. The coffee beans were very special, but they changed in the water, too. ”
“Who are you? ” asked her father. “When trouble knocks at your door, how do you react? Are you carrots, eggs or coffee? ”

In ancient languages, the seven days of the week were named after the sun, the moon, and the five planets that ancient people knew about (luckily, they only knew about five planets then, or our weeks would be much longer.)
There is a good reason that in English “Sunday”has the word “sun”in it. Sunday seems to be everyone’s favorite day of the week. It is easily understood that it’s named after everyone’s favorite thing in the sky！Do any other weekday names sound like astrological(占星的) words? How about “Monday”and“moon”, or“Saturday”and“Saturn”?
If you learn French or Spanish, you will see even more planets in the names of the days. These languages are rooted in Latin(拉丁文) and all seven days of the week develop from the planet names.
English is a strange language. It is very difficult to understand. The days of the week are a perfect example . A few are from Latin, and a few are from German. “Tuesday”is named after a German God: Tiw (Tiw’s day). Friday is named after a German Goddess(女神): Freya.
English words change spelling, meaning and roots that are based on wars and kings. That’s why English is so hard to learn！Learning the names of the days of the week can be like a history lesson in itself！
根据材料内容选择最佳答案，并将其标号填入题前括号内。
（ ）51.Which day of the week was named after the moon?
A. Sunday. B. Monday. C. Saturday. D. Tuesday.
（ ）52. We can tell from the story that “Saturn” is ______.
A. a planet’s name B. a strange language
C. a God’s name D. a Goddess’name
（ ）53. What do the underlined words are rooted in mean?
A. 结束于 B. 调整于 C. 制造于 D. 源自于
（ ）54. “Tuesday” is named after________.
A. a German Goddess B. a German God
C. an ancient French story D. an ancient Spanish story

七、书面表达（15分）
Every family has some rules. My family has some rules, too.
There are three rules in my family. First, I must return home before 9 o’clock. Second, I can’t play computer games from Monday to Friday. Third, I can’t go to bed later than 10 o’clock.
Sometimes, I am upset because I think some of the rules are really strict. I totally agree that we should have some rules in a family, but I just can’t accept some unreasonable ones like the second. Why not give me more relaxation time surfing the Internet after doing my homework?
In fact, I will be quite glad to follow the rules if they are proper.
