Ⅲ.阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
I'm Grace, 13 years old and in the seventh grade in Florida. This school year has been normal. However, my family and I spent my sixth-grade year driving all over Europe, seeing amazing
places, meeting all kinds of people, and getting closer as a family in the process.
When my family decided to move to Europe, we were excited. But we had a problem. We couldn't find a vehicle that had enough space to work for our five-member family, so my dad
decided he'd just make one. No matter where we were, our new home took some getting used to (花时间适应). I had to leave a lot of my stuff behind because so little of it would fit into my tiny new room. We had to be careful to save our water.And we were doing home-school, which worked
out great.
No matter what, I made sure to look out of my window every morning, because the view was different every day—England, then France, Italy，Greece... each special in its own way. In country after country, we toured around and tried to pick up little bits of the local language, but that didn't help us much. Luckily we kept finding people who knew some English. Everywhere we went, we saw the most amazing things. I love reading about places in my textbooks and then getting out of our vehicle to look right at them. I can't pick a favorite spot，because whichever one we were at seemed to be the best at the time.
After our trip ended, we moved to Florida.But it makes me happy that my family had this great year-long experience together. I'm thankful for that. 36．Compared with the seventh-grade school year, Grace's sixth-grade year was ______.
A．normal B．painful C．unusual D．successful 37．How did Grace and her family travel in Europe? A．By car. B．By taxi. C．By bike. D．By plane. 38．What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?
A．Grace likes Italy very much.
B．Grace prefers travelling to reading.
C．Grace can speak different languages well. D．Grace enjoyed the experience with her family. 39．What would be the best title for the text? A．Getting along with my family B．Looking out of my window C．My new moving home D．My life on the road

Last month，it was my first time to have a bus tour for sightseeing in Hong Kong SAR.It's really pleasant and interesting.Sitting on the upper deck of the bus，I explored Hong Kong in a different way.When the bus passed along the street，all the buildings and attractions along the way seemed very close to me.I bought a one-day pass priced around US $6 to enjoy unlimited(不受限

Most people prefer to stay indoors during a snowstorm, but Kenneth Libbrecht is not most people. When snow starts falling down from the winter sky, the scientist's work begins.Taking a magnifying glass(放大镜), a paintbrush, and a camera with him, he heads out into the cold.
Outside, Libbrecht waits for snowflakes (雪花) that are just right. Sometimes he waits for hours. Finally, he sees the snowflakes he's been waiting for. As the snowflakes fall, Libbrecht carefully catches them on his paintbrush. Then he points his camera and shoots.
The scientist's shiny pictures recently earned him a prize, which is given to top science photographers around the world.
Libbrecht takes pictures of snowflakes to learn more about their shapes. The snowflakes fall when water steam (水蒸气) in a cloud freezes. Every snowflake grows into a hexagon. That is a six-sided shape. However, no two snowflakes look the same. Experts are not sure why.
To find the answer, Libbrecht has traveled to snowy places around the world. He has taken
