proposal to employ dogs as classroom assistants.At the annual conference of the Professional Association of Teachers in Southport,northwest of England,one person suggested properly trained dogs be able to keep order in primary schools.They can round up lost children and protect those who experience unfortunate “accidents”.Wendy Dyble,a Shetland Islands woman who teaches children up to age seven,made it clear to her fellow friends that she was not “barking mad”.They obviously believed her,supporting her idea by 16 votes to 13,with a total of 63 abstentions (弃权).She said big dogs could help round up children,keep them in line,lick up the milk they spill on the floor and provide the extra eyes that a teacher needs to keep order.“A big dog would also be helpful in breaking up fights and looking for lost property,like gym shoes or dolls,” Dyble said at the conference.“The dog will also be useful in sniffing out sme lls that children do not own up to,” she added.“It would be nice for the teacher not to have to go round sniffing each child to find the culprit (犯错的人).”The idea was greeted by the Dog Defense League but less so by bigger teaching unions.A spokesman for Education Secretary David Blunkett,who is blind,said his guide dog was alwayspopular with pupils when he visited schools.The Professional Association of Teachers,with around 35,000 members,is the smallest teaching union in Britain.It has an honour for occasional strange ideas.Earlier this week,its annual conference here suggested stopping exams because they lead to stress and introducing selection at the age of 12 based on physical coordination and manual skill in the use of hand.1.According to the writer’s opinion,to employ dogs as classroom assistants________.A.is a wonderful ideaB.can improve the relation between children and animalsC.is beyond ordinary people’s mindsD.can make some teachers lose jobs2.What Dyble said at the conference________.A.gained some support from the membersB.frightened everyone at the conferenceC.interested everyone at the conferenceD.caused some trouble to trained dogs3.A spokesman for Education Secretary________.A.once used a dog as a classroom assistantB.sang high praise for Dyble’ s ideaC.would employ dogs as teachersD.benefited much from dogs4.The last paragraph of this passage________.A.has nothing to do with the topic of this passageB.shows there are too many exams in British schoolsC.provides further facts about the teaching unionD.shows the writer’s anger to the unionⅣ.短文填词Last week,we talked about different kinds of short stories.Many________you said you liked the American 1.________writer Earnest Hemingway,who is w________known 2.________for short stories.I hope you all f________my advice 3.________and finished

Have you ever seen a movie in which a building was burned down or a bridge was destroyed? Have you seen films in which two trains crashed or a ship 36 into the ocean?

The director of the movie 45 the fish to stop swimming suddenly 46 they seemed to stare at (盯着看) an actor. Then the director wanted the fish to 47 staring and swim. But fish can’t be ordered to do anything. It was quite a 48 .The special-effects man thought about the problem for a long time. The result was an idea for 49 the fish with a harmless use of electricity. 50 he applied electricity to the fish bowl causing the fish to be absolutely 51 . Then he rapidly reduced the amount of 52 , allowing the fish to be free. Thus he got the humourous effect the 53 wanted.In other parts of movie making there are also special-effects men who have developed 54 skills in creating certain kinds of effects.

As is known to all, the road to fame and fortune is a long, hard one.Michael remembers those early years when he was young. “My father was a machine operator,” he explained, “and he worked at a steel plant. My mother worked at Sears, a big department store. But they were both musicians.”Michael’s father Joe Jackson realized his sons had a lot of talent, and he knew he could train them to become fine musicians. In those days there were plenty of music groups and some of them were very good. He knew if his sons were to stand out, they would have to be the best.Practice makes perfect. And the Jackson boys practiced! Gradually the group took shape. Then word of this group began to get around. Thus Michael got a chance to do some solo(独唱)songs. In the following years, Michael was always on the top. One million records of his were sold in New Zealand, which has only a total population of three million!When Michael was eighteen, he entered another field of his career(生涯)—acting. “I plan to star in movies,” he told his friends, “but of course, my first love is music.”Michael wrote a lot of his own songs. “Songs came about in the strangest ways,” he said. “I’ll just wake up from sleeping and there is a whole song coming into my head. And then I put it down on the paper.”Still, with all his success, Michael managed to keep his head calm. “I just do a different job from other people,” he said, “but it doesn’t make me think I’m better than other people.”To be quite honest, his fans just love to hear and watch him!4. What can we know from the text?A. Michael Jackson’s parents enjoyed music a lot.B. Michael’s mother worked in a factory when he was young.C. Michael’s father spent a lot of time in drinking.D.

Why Michael is so popular all over the world.D. How Michael becomes so popular all over the world.CSalvador Dali(1904 —1989)was one of the most popular of modern artists. The Pompidou Centre in Paris is showing its respect and admiration for the artist and his powerful personality with an exhibition bringing together over 200 paintings, sculptures, drawings and more. Among the works and masterworks on exhibition the visitor will find the best pieces, most importantly The Persistence of Memory. There is also L’Enigme sans Fin from 1938, works on paper, objects, and projects for stage and screen and selected parts from television programmes reflecting the artist’s showman qualities.The visitor will enter the World of Dali through an egg and is met with the beginning, the world of birth. The exhibition follows a path of time and subject with the visitor exiting through the brain.The exhibition shows how Dali draws the viewer between two infinities(无限). “From the infinity small to the infinity large, contraction and expansion coming in and out of focus: amazing Flemish accuracy and the showy Baroque of old painting that he used in his museum-theatre in Figueras,” explains the Pompidou Centre.The fine selection of the major works was done in close collaboration(合作)with the Museo Nacional Reina Sofia in Madrid, Spain, and with contributions from other institutions like the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida.8. Which of the following best describes Dali according to Paragraph 1?A. Optimistic.B. Productive.C. Generous.D. Traditional.9. What is Dali’s The Persistence of Memory considered to be?A. One of his masterworks.B. A successful screen adaptation.C. An artistic creation for the stage.D. One of the best TV programmes.10.

AThe term country music refers to a variety of styles,originally popular among working class white Americ ans in the rural areas of the South and West.Originally known as “hillbilly music”,the term was replaced by country and western music in 1949 and eventually shortened to country music.But the origins of country music go way back a century ago,to the waves of immigrants from Britain and Ireland.Their songs and dances,nursery rhymes and ballads,would form the most important part of the folk musical tradition of rural America,and the basis for what became known as “old time”music.These roots of country music lie largely in the folk songs and instrumental music of the English,Irish,and Scots who settled in the Appalachian areas of the MidSouth during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.Many of these mountainous areas were not settled until the 1830s,and then by impoverished immigrants who were concerned with the daily struggle for survival.The communities were cut off from the rest of America and still attached to their traditions.Other origins of country music can be traced back to the flamenco and habanera music of Spain,the polka and other dances of Eastern Europe and—as with almost all the popular music of the United States—the influence of the slave populations shipped from the African continent.In fact one of the major instruments in Appalachian and early country music,the banjo,has its origins in AfroAmerican history.Two publishing events in the early part of the 20th century excited a widespread interest in America's white musical tradition and “old time” music.First,in 1910,the musicologist John Lomax published Co w boy Songs and Other Frontier Ballads.Then in 1916 the English song collector Cecil Sharp put together a collection of folk music from the Appalachian mountains.But it wasn't until 1922,when Texas fiddler(小提琴家) Eck Robertson cut the firs t record of “old time”music,that the popularity of what also became known as“hillbilly music”really began to grow,via pioneering artists,record labels and radio stations.The record that more generally gets cited as the first country release was made in June 1923 by Fiddlin' John Carson.21.What does the text mainly discuss?A.The history of the US folk music.B.The origins of country music.C.The influence of “old time” music.D.The waves of immigrants in the US.22.The underlined word “impoverished” in Paragraph 3 most probably means“______”.A.brave B.poor C.legal D.kind23.Who made a great contribution to the spread of Appalachian music?A.Fiddlin' John Carson. B.Eck Robertson.C.Cecil Sharp. D.John Lomax.24.Country music first became widely known in the ______.A.1830s B.1840s C.1910s D.1920sBMusic for Little Mozarts is a program designed to help your little ones develop a love of music.Learning music at an early age helps develop little minds and expand their cognitive(认知的)ability.While listening to music can certainly help your youngster pick up songs,actually learning to play the piano can help your child's education development.This program focuses on little creatures that both entertain and teach.By grasping the attention of a young child's mind and engaging them with stories along with hands on experience,you can provide them with a positive experience that just may fuel a little Mozart in later years.Within this multibook and multiyear lesson plan there are ten little characters that help draw the child into the lesson plan.These little creatures actually can be used to help the child grasp basic concepts in music.The series starts out in the preschool years and provides day by day lessons that can aid the child or a classroom of children right through early adolescence(青春期).The series is designed for both classroom and preschool use and for those at home with homeschoolers.It contains a series of books along with audio CDs,flash cards,and other visual aids that can help very young children develop an ear and an eye for music.It can be hard to hold the attention spans of children for very long.However,with the right creativity and the proper attention along with simple,easytomaster daily lessons,most children will not only grasp music rather quickly,they will also develop a love of real music,not just banging on a piano keyboard and making sounds.The short,daily lessons are planned out so that children learn to play music by ear.They learn to play real songs and master real passages quickly and easily.This element keeps them involved.They also master playing by ear and then later by reading rather quickly.25.This program is intended for children to ______.A.learn how to sing songs B.master playing the piano quicklyC.learn some basic music knowledge D.experience charm of music26.The underlined word “creatures” probably refers to ______.A.children to learn music B.the characters of the programC.cartoon animals D.education methods27.The last two paragraphs mainly tell the readers ______.A.what this program offers B.the relation between ear and musicC.it's more important to use ear than reading ability to learn musicD.this program is useful to develop children's love of music quicklyCSurfing the Internet for fun will make you a better employee,according to an Australian study.The University of Melbourne study shows that people who use the Internet for their own reasons at work are about 9 percent more productive than those who do not.Study author Brent Coker said,“Surfing the Internet at times helps increase an employee's attention.”“People need to relax for a bit to get back their attention,”Coker said on the university's website.“Having a short break,such as a quick surfing of the Internet,helps the mind to rest itself,leading to a higher total Internet attention for a day's work,and as a result,increases productivity(生产效率),”he said.According to the study of 300 workers,70 percent of the people who use the Internet at work surf the Internet for their own reasons during office hours.Among the most popular surfing activities are searching for information about products,reading online news,playing online games and watchingvideos.“Firms spend a lot of money on software to block their employees from watching video,using social networking sites or shopping online,”said Coker.“That's not always a good idea.”However,Coker said the study looked at people who surfed the Internet in moderation(适度),or were on the Internet for less than 20 percent of their total time in the office.“Those who spend too much time surfing the Internet will have a lower productivity than those without,”he said.28.What does the University of Melbourne study mainly show?A.People who surf the Internet are good employees.B.Not everyone surfs the Internet for fun during office hours.C.Surfing the Internet for fun during office hours increases productivity.D.The Internet is becoming more and more important in people's life.29.According to Paragraph 3,Brent Coker would most probably agree that______.A.the longer a person's mind rests the better attention he will haveB.surfing the Internet is the best way to increase productivityC.workers should have a long break during office hoursD.workers should let their minds rest now and then30.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as one of the most popular surfing activities?A.Watching videos. B.Reading online news.C.Reading online novels. D.Playing online games.31.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Spending too much time surfing the Internet reduces productivity.B.Those who never surf the Internet have the lowest productivity.C.Most people don't surf the Internet in moderation during office hours.D.People should spend as little time as possible surfing the Internet.DIn all the world's cultures,people sing,play instruments,and celebrate with music.It plays such an important role in our lives that all fields focus on its study,including one looking at the biology of music.Experts find that because of the way our brains process music,learning to play an instrument or just listening to music can have a wide range of benefits.Music education has received a lot of attention.Learning to play an instrument can help children improve math,science,and language skills.One study in Canada tracked children's IQ scores for nine months,discovering that children who studied music had the biggest test score improvements.The secret may lie in the way reading music and playing notes use several areas of the brain,increasing our ability to learn school subjects.For example,reading notes improves spatial(空间的) reasoning skills,which are helpful in solving math problems like fractions(分数).Music is also used for medical purposes,such as the treatment of diseases which affect memories.The secret lies in the way the brain processes music.One area near the forehead,the medial prefrontal cortex,connects music with memories stored in two other areas:the amygdale and hippocampus.That's why an old song can remind you of something that happened years ago.For patients suffering from diseases like Alzheimer's,listening to music can help unlock buried memories by strengthening musical pathways to memories.With the evidence of music's benefits,it's no wonder some countries make music study a part of their education systems.People are recognizing that more than just a form of entertainment,music is also great for the brain.32.Scientists are studying music because ______.A.music can be used for medical treatmentsB.music plays a very important role in our livesC.our brains can process music in different waysD.music education has received a lot of attention33.According to the Canadian study,which children increased IQ scores?A.Those who already had high IQ scores.B.Those who always played music.C.Those who could not play any instrument.D.Those who studied music for a period of time.34.Which of the following is a kind of disease?A.Spatial reasoning. B.Alzheimer's.C.The amygdale and hippocampus.D.The medial prefrontal cortex.35.Which can be the best title for the text?A.Music and health B.Music and mindC.Music and education D.Music and instruments第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,共10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Because of anxiety and malnutrition, he became very weak and before long fell 29 ,and a doctor was sent for. The doctor was not rich enough, but 30 literature. He tried his best to cure Savage of his illness and a week later Savage was out of 31 When he finally recovered his 32 ,the doctor sent a bill to Savage for his 33 ,but poor Savage had no money to 34 it. The doctor waited for a month and sent another bill. 35 no money again, the doctor went to Savage himself.“You know you 36 your life to me,” said the doctor, “and I should 37 some thankfulness from you.”“I 38 ,” said the writer, “ you’ve done a great favour for me and to 39 that I’m not ungrateful for your kindness, I’ll 40 m y life to you.”With these 41 he handed the doctor two copies of The Life of Richard Savage.The doctor took the books home and began to 42 them carefully.“I see I’ve 43 the life of a great writer,” the doctor said to himself with a sense of pride. “Maybe this is the only thing I could be really 44 in my life.”Five years later Savage called on the doctor to pay his bill, only to find that the doctor had already 45 .26.A.much B. a little C. little D. enough27.A.published B. found C. encourage D. protected28.A.bought B. sold C. printed D. showed29.A.weak B. anxious C. frightened D. ill30.A. was interested in B. was familiar withC. was popular withD. struggled against31.A.safety B. power C. danger D. injury32.A.sight B. health C. movement D. action33.A.care B. aid C. attention D. treatment34.A.pay B. supply C. afford D. allow35.A.Receiving B.

Quite simply, because no one tells us how to failso that failure becomes an experience that will lead to growth. We forget that failure is part of the human condition and that every person had the right to fail.Most parents work hard at preventing failure or protecting their children from the knowledge that they have failed. One way is to lower standards. A mother describes her child’s hastily made table as “perfect” even though it doesn’t stand still. A nother way is to shift blame. If John fails science, his teacher is unfair or stupid.The trouble with failure-prevention devices is that they leave a child unequipped for life in the real world. The young need to learn that no one can be best at everything. No one can win all the time---and that it’s possible to enjoy a game even when you don’t win. A child who’s not invited to a birthday party, who doesn’t make the honor list on the baseball team, feels terrible, of course, but parents should not offer a quick consolation prize(安慰奖) or say, “It doesn’t matter.” Because it does. The young should be allowed to experience disappointment---and be helped to master it.Failure is never pleasurable. It hurts grown-ups and children alike. But it can make a positive contribution to your l ife once you learn to use it. Step one is to ask “why did I fail?” Don’t blame someone else. Ask yourself what you did wrong, how you can improve. If someone else can help, don’t be shy about inquiring.Success, which encourages repetition of old behavior, is not nearly as good a teacher as failure. You can learn from a bad party how to give a second one, from an ill—chosen first house what to look for in a second. Even a failure that seems definitive can prompt(激起) fresh thinking, a change of direction. After 12 years of studying ballet a friend of mine auditioned(面试) for a professional company. She was turned down. “would further training help?” she asked. The ballet master shook his head. “You will never be a dancer,” he said, “you haven’t the body for it.”In such cases, the way to use failure is to take stock(鉴定) bravely and ask, “What have I left? What else can I do?” My friend put away her shoes and moved into dance treatment center, a field where she’s both able and useful. Failure frees one to take risks because there’s less to lose. Often there is recovery of energy—a way to find new possibilities.46. The first paragraph tells us _______.A. the reason why so many people are afraid of failureB. th e reason why we don’t know how to failC. failure is very natural for every personD. one should be ready to face failure at any time.47. The second paragraph tells us___________.A. how a mother praised her childrenB. two ways of failure prevention most parents use when their children failC. how to shift blameD. parents should blame their children at the proper time48. According to the author, what should a child know in the real world?A. Ways to avoid failure.B. No one can be best all the time at everything.C. No parents should offer quick consolation.D. He can get pleasure from failure as well as success.49. What can make a positive contribution to one’s life once he learns to use it?A. SuccessB. DisappointmentC. FailureD. Value.BWas he dreaming? David Ewart saw a red ball of fire. He shot out of a deep sleep and heard his ten-year-old daughter, Heather, screaming. Ewart jumped out of bed on the second floor of his home. Downstairs he heard loud popping noises, glass bulbs, furniture, appliances exploding as fire consumed them.Three hundred and fifty people, including friends and family members, had attended Ewart’s annual Christmas party at his home in Valencia, California. David was a giver. They all enjoyed themselves. After the party, he and his 77-year-old mother, Esther, put out the candles—all but one, missed and left burning on a holiday paper tablecloth.Now, as Ewart started down the hall to alert his parents and three children, he said a silent prayer: God, if it is your will, save us. The heat was hellish(地狱般的). But then he felt a hand on his shoulder—and something that was not quite a voice guiding him, giving him the direction: the bedroom window.He kicked out the window screen and told Heather to jump onto the patio(院子) cover, crawl to the edge and drop to the ground, the feet below. Next he headed for his two sons, Jonathan, 13, andMichael, 15, who were screaming with pain. David led Jonathan to the window. He returned for Michael, who was now helping his grandparents, trapped in their room behind a jammed door. Michael threw himself against it and finally burst through. David guided his mother, then Michael, to safety.Only his father remained. The 81-year-old’s face was badly burned. He lost his footing and fell. David took his hand and helped him to the window. Too weak to hold on, his father rolled off the patio cover to the ground.Finally,David escaped. Second later, the second floor exploded, yet all the while, he felt he was being led, under protection. The family survived and firefighters said they were mystified(迷惑) as to how the family survived. David Ewart was not.50. Why did the fire take place?A. Three hundred and fifty friends were at their home.B. David and his mother put out all the candles but one left burning.C. Someone set fire to their house.D. David Ewart saw a red ball of fire.51. Which is the following is Not true?A. Michael helped his parents escape from the fire.B. David Ewart helped heather jumped out of the burning room from the bedroom window.C. David’s father was to o weak to hold on , at last he was dead.D. David’s mother was saved out earlier than his father.52. How many years older was David’s father than his mother?A. 2B.15C. 4D. the same age53. How many people were trapped when the fire broke out?A. 350B. 6C. 5D. 35654. What does the writer want to tell us from the story?A. Everyone should be aware of the danger of fireB. People shouldn’t hold big parties at homeC. United, we stand, Divided, we fall.D. When in danger, we should keep calm.CRoom for Revolution: George Washington and His Philadelphia FriendsMarch 16,2007 August 30,2007Charles Wilson Peale’s George Washington at Princeton is on view(展览) at the museum which was lent from a private collection. This visually striking and finely made life-size portrait(肖像)records Washington’s 6-foot-2-inch figure in a pose highlighting strength, composure(沉着), and elegance(高雅). It is put up in a room neighboring to the Powel House parlor(客厅), a period room from one of Philadelphia’s greatest eighteenth-century private homes, where Washington was frequently entertained by his friends, Samuel and Elizabeth Powel. Both spaces contain important examples of fur niture by Philadelphia’s finest craftsmen, such as Thomas Affleck and Aitken. Among these is a side chair specially ordered by the Washingtons when living in Philadelphia.Painted in Philadelphia in 1779, Peal’s painting was immediately sent to Europe to p romote Washington’s reputation as a leader and the cause of the American Revolution, then in progress. Later , during Europe’s Napoleonic Wars, a Spanish duke(公爵) with strong sympathies with American Revolution owned the picture. At that time he added the complicated carved caption(标题) to it, which describes Washington as “ a liberator of his country who abandoned absolute power.”Curators馆长,监护人American Art Department Staff, website commentary by Carol SoltisLocation位子Galleries 286 and 287, second floor55.

In order to get some food and clothes he wrote the story of his life and managed to have it 27 .But not many copies of his books were 28 in the shops, and he was still living a hard life. Because of anxiety and malnutrition, he became very weak and before long fell 29 ,and a doctor was sent for. The doctor was not rich enough, but 30 literature. He tried his best to cure Savage of his illness and a week later Savage was out of 31 When hefinally recovered his 32 ,the doctor sent a bill to Savage for his 33 ,but poor Savage had no money to 34 it. The doctor waited for a month and sent another bill. 35 no money again, the doctor went to Savage himself.“You know you 36 your life to me,”said the doctor, “and I should 37 some thankfulness from you.”“I 38 ,” said the writer, “you’ve done a great favour for me and to 39 that I’m not ungrateful for your kindness, I’ll 40 my life to you.”With these 41 he handed the doctor two copies of The Life of Richard Savage.The doctor took the books home and began to 42 them carefully.“I see I’ve 43 the life of a great writer,” the doctor said to himself with a sense of pride. “Maybe this is the only thing I could be really 44 in my life.”Five years later Savage called on the doctor to pay his bill, only to find that the doctor had already 45 .26.A.much B. a little C. little D. enough27.A.published B. found C. encourage D. protected28.A.bought B. sold C. printed D. showed29.A.weak B. anxious C. frightened D. ill30.A. was interested in B. was familiar withC. was popular withD. struggled against31.A.safety B. power C. danger D. injury32.A.sight B. health C. movement D. action33.A.care B. aid C. attention D. treatment34.A.pay B. supply C. afford D. allow35.A.Receiving B.

Quite simply, because no one tells us how to fail so that failure becomes an experience that will lead to growth. We forget that failure is part of the human condition and that every person had the right to fail.Most parents work hard at preventing failure or protecting their children from the knowledge that they have failed. One way is to lower standards. A mother describes her child’s hastily made table as “perfect” even though it doesn’t stand still. Another way is to shift blame. If John fails science, his teacher is unfair or stupid.The trouble with failure-prevention devices is that they leave a child unequipped for life in the real world. The young need to learn that no one can be best at everything. No one can win all the time---and that it’s possible to enjoy a game even when you don’t win. A child who’s not invited to a birthday party, who doesn’t make the honor list on the baseball team, feels terrible, of course, but parents should not offer a quick consolation prize(安慰奖) or say, “It doesn’t matter.”Because it does. The young should be allowed to experience disappointment---and be helped to master it.Failure is never pleasurable. It hurts grown-ups and children alike. But it can make a positive contribution to your life once you learn to use it. Step one is to ask “why did I fail?” Don’t blame someone else. Ask yourself what you did wrong, how you can improve. If someone else can help, don’t be shy about inquiring.Success, which encourages repetition of old behavior, is not nearly as good a teacher as failure. You can learn from a bad party how to give a second one, from an ill—chosen first house what to look for in a second. Even a failure that seems definitive can prompt(激起) fresh thinking, a change of direction. After 12 years of studying ballet a friend of mine auditioned(面试) for a professional company. She was turned down. “would further training help?” she asked. The ballet master shook his head. “You will never be a dancer,” he said, “you haven’t the body for it.”In such cases, the way to use failure is to take stock(鉴定) bravely and ask, “What have I left? What else can I do?” My friend put away her shoes and moved into dance treatment center, a field where she’s both able and useful. Failure frees one to take risks because there’s less to lose. Often there is recovery of energy—a way to find new possibilities.46. The first paragraph tells us _______.A. the reason why so many people are afraid of failureB. the reason why we don’t know how to failC. failure is very natural for every personD. one should be ready to face failure at any time.47. The second paragraph tells us___________.A. how a mother praised her childrenB. two ways of failure prevention most parents use when their children failC. how to shift blameD. parents should blame their children at the proper time48. According to the author, what should a child know in the real world?A. Ways to avoid failure.B. No one can be best all the time at everything.C. No parents should offer quick consolation.D. He can get pleasure from failure as well as success.49. What can make a positive contribution to one’s life once he learns to use it?A. SuccessB. DisappointmentC. FailureD. Value.BWas he dreaming? David Ewart saw a red ball of fire. He shot out of a deep sleep and heard his ten-year-old daughter, Heather, screaming. Ewart jumped out of bed on the second floor of his home. Downstairs he heard loud popping noises, glass bulbs, furniture, appliances exploding as fire consumed them.Three hundred and fifty people, including friends and family members, had attended Ewart’sannual Christmas party at his home in Valencia, California. David was a giver. They all enjoyed themselves. After the party, he and his 77-year-old mother, Esther, put out the candles—all but one, missed and left burning on a holiday paper tablecloth.Now, as Ewart started down the hall to alert his parents and three children, he said a silent prayer: God, if it is your will, save us. The heat was hellish(地狱般的). But then he felt a hand on his shoulder—and something that was not quite a voice guiding him, giving him the direction: the bedroom window.He kicked out the window screen and told Heather to jump onto the patio(院子) cover, crawl to the edge and drop to the ground, the feet below. Next he headed for his two sons, Jonathan, 13, and Michael, 15, who were screaming with pain. David led Jonathan to the window. He returned for Michael, who was now helping his grandparents, trapped in their room behind a jammed door. Michael threw himself against it and finally burst through. David guided his mother, then Michael, to safety.Only his father remained. The 81-year-old’s face was badly burned. He lost his footing and fell. David took his hand and helped him to the window. Too weak to hold on, his father rolled off the patio cover to the ground.Finally,David escaped. Second later, the second floor exploded, yet all the while, he felt he was being led, under protection. The family survived and firefighters said they were mystified(迷惑) as to how the family survived. David Ewart was not.50. Why did the fire take place?A. Three hundred and fifty friends were at their home.B. David and his mother put out all the candles but one left burning.C. Someone set fire to their house.D. David Ewart saw a red ball of fire.51. Which is the following is Not true?A. Michael helped his parents escape from the fire.B. David Ewart helped heather jumped out of the burning room from the bedroom window.C. David’s father was too weak to hold on , at last he was dead.D. David’s mother was saved out earlier than his father.52. How many years older was David’s father than his mother?A. 2B.15C. 4D. the same age53. How many people were trapped when the fire broke out?A. 350B. 6C. 5D. 35654. What does the writer want to tell us from the story?A. Everyone should be aware of the danger of fireB. People shouldn’t hold big parties at homeC. United, we stand, Divided, we fall.D. When in danger, we should keep calm.CRoom for Revolution: George Washington and His Philadelphia FriendsMarch 16,2007 August 30,2007Charles Wilson Peale’s George Washington at Princeton is on view(展览) at the museum which was lent from a private collection. This visually striking and finely made life-sizeportrait(肖像)records Washington’s 6-foot-2-inch figure in a pose highlighting strength, composure(沉着), and elegance(高雅). It is put up in a room neighboring to the Powel House parlor(客厅), a period room from one of Philadelphia’s greatest eighteenth-century private homes, where Washington was frequently entertained by his friends, Samuel and Elizabeth Powel. Both spaces contain important examples of furniture by Philadelphia’s finest craftsmen, such as Thomas Affleck and Aitken. Among these is a side chair specially ordered by the Washingtons when living in Philadelphia.Painted in Philadelphia in 1779, Peal’s painting was immediately sent to Europe to promote Washington’s reputation as a leader and the cause of the American Revolution, then in progress. Later , during Europe’s Napoleonic Wars, a Spanish duke(公爵) with strong sympathies with American Revolution owned the picture. At that time he added the complicated carved caption(标题) to it, which describes Washington as “a liberator of his country who abandoned absolute power.”Curators馆长,监护人American Art Department Staff, website commentary by Carol SoltisLocation位子Galleries 286 and 287, second floor55.

But be forewarned: It may not afford nearly as much privacy as you expect. That’s the finding of a new study.Major web browsers, such as Google’s Chrome and Apple’s Safari, often a private-browsing option. It’s sometimes referred to as “incognito.” This option lets you surf the Internet browser and saves a record into its history of each page that you visited. And what sites you visit won’t affect the suggestions your browser makes the next ti me you’re filling out an online form.Many people believe----incorrectly--- that the incognito setting protects them more broadly. Most believe it even after reading a web browser’s explanation of the incognito mode.For instance, a new study had 460 peopl e read web browsers’ descriptions of private browsing. Each person read one of 13 descriptions. Then the participants answered questions about how private they thought their browsing would be while using this tool. The volunteers didn’t understand the inco gnito mode.This was true no matter which browser explanation they had read. The researchers reported their findings on April 26 at the 2018 World Wide Web Conference in Lyon, France.More than half of the volunteers thought that if they logged into a Google account through a private window, Google wouldn’t keep a record of their search history. Not true. And about one in every four participants thought private browsing hid their device’s IP address. That’s wrong, too.Blase Ur was one of the study’s authors. He’s an expert in computer security and privacy in Illinois at the University of Chicago. Companies could clear up this confusion by giving better explanations of the incognito mode, his team says. For example, the browsers should avoid vague (模糊).The web browser Opera, for instance, promises users that “your secrets are safe.” Nope Firefox encourages users to “browse like no one’s watching.” In fact, someone might be. (If you’d like to know more about the research information, please click here .)21.The researchers did the study with the aim of ______.A. checking the safety of browsers of leading companiesB. finding users’ knowledge about private browsing policyC. tracking young web users’ browsing habitsD. testing a new tool to judge the Internet22.The “incognito” mode is believed to be able to ______.A. record one’s passwordsB. give a warning of insecure linksC. help hide one’s past browsing historyD. access one’s favorite websites quickly23.Where is the article probably from ______.A. a text bookB. a newspaperC. a magazineD. the Internet24.The last paragraph is written to ______.A. report a new findingB. put forward a suggestionC. introduce a web browserD. correct a misunderstanding第II卷(非选择题)三、新添加的题型_______ (机会) for our country.

Quite simply, because no one tells us how to fail so that failure becomes an experience that will lead to growth. We forget that failure is part of the human condition and that every person had the right to fail.Most parents work hard at preventing failure or protecting their children from the knowledge that they have failed. One way is to lower standards. A mother describes her child’s hastily made table as “perfect” even though it doesn’t stand still. Another way is to shift blame. If John fails science, his teacher is unfair or stupid.The trouble with failure-prevention devices is that they leave a child unequipped for life in the real world. The young need to learn that no one can be best at everything. No one can win all the time---and that it’s possible to enjoy a game even when you don’t win. A child who’s not invited to a birthday party, who doesn’t make the honor list on the baseball team, feels terrible, of course, but parents should not offer a quick consolation prize(安慰奖) or say, “It doesn’t matter.”Because it does. The young should be allowed to experience disappointment---and be helped to master it.Failure is never pleasurable. It hurts grown-ups and children alike. But it can make a positive contribution to your life once you learn to use it. Step one is to ask “why did I fail?” Don’t blame someone else. Ask yourself what you did wrong, how you can improve. If someone else can help, don’t be shy about inquiring.Success, which encourages repetition of old behavior, is not nearly as good a teacher as failure. Y ou can learn from a bad party how to give a second one, from an ill—chosen first house what to look for in a second. Even a failure that seems definitive can prompt(激起) fresh thinking, a change of direction. After 12 years of studying ballet a friend of mine auditioned(面试) for a professional company. She was turned down. “would further training help?” she asked. The ballet master shook his head. “Y ou will never be a dancer,” he said, “you haven’t the body for it.”In such cases, the way to use failure is to take stock(鉴定) bravely and ask, “What have I left? What else can I do?” My friend put away her shoes and moved into dance treatment center, a field where she’s both able and useful. Failure frees one to take risks because there’s less to lose. Often there is recovery of energy—a way to find new possibilities.46.

David Ewart saw a red ball of fire. He shot out of a deep sleep and heard his ten-year-old daughter, Heather, screaming. Ewart jumped out of bed on the second floor of his home. Downstairs he heard loud popping noises, glass bulbs, furniture, appliances exploding as fire consumed them.Three hundred and fifty people, including friends and family members, had attended Ewart’s annual Christmas party at his home in V alencia, California. David was a giver. They all enjoyed themselves. After the party, he and his 77-year-old mother, Esther, put out the candles—all but one, missed and left burning on a holiday paper tablecloth.Now, as Ewart started down the hall to alert his parents and three children, he said a silent prayer: God, if it is your will, save us. The heat was hellish(地狱般的). But then he felt a hand on his shoulder—and something that was not quite a voice guiding him, giving him the direction: the bedroom window.He kicked out the window screen and told Heather to jump onto the patio(院子) cover, crawlto the edge and drop to the ground, the feet below. Next he headed for his two sons, Jonathan, 13, and Michael, 15, who were screaming with pain. David led Jonathan to the window. He returned for Michael, who was now helping his grandparents, trapped in their room behind a jammed door. Michael threw himself against it and finally burst through. David guided his mother, then Michael, to safety.Only his father remained. The 81-year-old’s face was badly burned. He lost his footing and fell. David took his hand and helped him to the window. Too weak to hold on, his father rolled off the patio cover to the ground.Finally,David escaped. Second later, the second floor exploded, yet all the while, he felt he was being led, under protection.

This visually striking and finely made life-size portrait(肖像)records Washington’s 6-foot-2-inch figure in a pose highlighting strength, composure(沉着), and elegance(高雅). It is put up in a room neighboring to the Powel House parlor(客厅), a period room from one of Philadelphia’s greatest eighteenth-century private homes, where Washington was frequently entertained by his friends, Samuel and Elizabeth Powel. Both spaces contain important examples of furniture by Philadelphia’s finest craftsmen, such as Thomas Affleck and Aitken. Among these is a side chair specially ordered by the Washingtons when living in Philadelphia.Painted in Philadelphia in 1779, Peal’s painting was immediately sent to Europe to promote Washington’s reputation as a leader and the cause of the American Revolution, then in progress. Later , during Europe’s Napoleonic Wars, a Spanish duke(公爵) with strong sympathies with American Revolution owned the picture. At that time he added the complicated carved caption(标题) to it, which describes Washington as “a liberator of his country who abandoned absolute power.”Curators馆长,监护人American Art Department Staff, website commentary by Carol SoltisLocation位子Galleries 286 and 287, second floor55.
