When I refused to listen, she told me I could get the surgery to close the gap if it was that important. “Let‟s be 42 , though,”she said. “If everyone got surgeries to become pretty, everyone would be exactly the same. There is beauty in differences.”Her 43 made me consider my teeth seriously. the thought of losing my gap was more terrible than the reality that people were going to notice it. I realized how important it was to me. It is part of my 44 .Nowadays many people do ridiculous things to realize their dream of “perfection.” The 45 is that no one is perfect.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B,C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.AWhat makes a gift special? Is it the price you see on the gift receipt? Or is it the look on the recipient‟s face when they receive it that determines the true value? What gift is worth the most?This Christmas I was debating what to give my father. My dad is a hard person to buy for because he never wants anything. I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across a message on my phone that I had locked. The message was from my father. My eyes fell on a photo of a flower taken in Wyoming, and underneath a poem by William Blake. The flower, a lone dandelion standing against the bright blue sky, inspired me. My dad had been reciting those words to me since I was a kid. That may even be the reason why I love writing. I decided that those words would be my gift to my father.I called back. I told my mom to go without me and that I already created my gift. I sent the photo of the cream-colored flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it. As I was arranging the details another poem came to mind. The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe; my dad recited it as much as he did the other. I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of it. The poem was focused around dreaming, and after searching I found the perfect picture. The image was painted with blues and greens and purples, twisting together to create the theme and wonder of a dream. As I watched both poems passing through the printer, the white paper coloring with words that shaped my childhood, I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate.Christmas soon arrived. The minute I saw the look on my dad‟s face as he unwrapped those swirling black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame, I knew I had given the perfect gift.56. The idea for a special gift began to form when the author was _________.A. doing shoppingB. having a debaterC. reading a messageD. leaving for Wyoming57. The author‟s inspiration for the gift came from _________.A. a photo of a flowerB. a story about a kidC. a call from the motherD. a text about Christmas58. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to a poem by _________.A. the fatherB. the authorC. William BlakeD. Edgar Allan Poe59. The author made the gift by _________.A. searching for the poems onlineB. drawing the background by handC. painting the letters in three colorsD. matching the words with pictures60. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To show how to design images for gifts.B. To suggest making gifts from one‟s heart.C. To explain how computers help create gifts.D. To describe the gifts the author has received.B61. As mentioned in the passage, there is a small charge for _________.A. attending the masters‟ classB. working with local artistsC. learning life drawingD. seeing an exhibition62. “Torch Aloe” and “Venus Flytrap” are _________.A. common insectsB. impressive plantsC. rarely-seen snakesD. wildlife-enthusiasts63. We can infer from the passage that Byron seemed _________.A. to fear pet bearsB. to like walkingC. to be a heavy drinkerD. to finish university in 180564. In the passage Byron‟s Pool is described as a lake _________.A. surrounded by fieldsB. owned by Lord ByronC. located in GrantchesterD. discovered by Virginia Woolf65. What is the passage mainly about?A. Some places for weekend break.B. A way to become creative in art.C. The colourful life in the countryside.D. Unknown stories of Cambridge University.CHarvard researchers have created a tough, low-cost, biodegradable (可生物降解的) material inspired by insects‟ hard outer shells. The material‟s inventors say it has a number of possible uses and someday could provide a more environmentally friendly alternative to plastic. The material, made from shrimp (虾) shells and proteins produced from silk, is called “shrilk.” It is thin, clear, flexible and strong.A major benefit of the material is its biodegradability. Plastic‟s toughness and flexibility represented a revolution in materials science during the 1950s and ‟60s. Decades later, however, plastic‟s very durability(耐用性)is raising questions about how appropriate it is for one-time products such as plastic bags, or short-lived consumer goods, used in the home for a few years and then cast into a landfill where they will degrade for centuries. What is the point of making something that lasts 1,000 years?Shrilk not only will degrade in a landfill, but its basic components are used as fertilizer (肥料), and so will enrich the soil.Shrilk has great potential, the inventors said. Materials from which it is made are plentiful in nature, found in everything ranging from shrimp shells, insect bodies to living plants. That makes shrilk low cost, and its mass production possible should it be used for products demanding a lot of material.Work on shrilk is continuing in the lab. The inventors said the material becomes flexible when wet, so they‟re exploring ways to use it in wet environments. They‟re also developing simpler production processes, which could be used for non-medical products, like for computer cases and other products inside the home. They‟re even exploring combining it with other materials, like carbon fibers, to give it new properties.66. Paragraph 1 of the passage is mainly about shrilk‟s _________.A. remarkable designB. interesting nameC. major featuresD. basic elements67. What has become a concern about plastic?A. Using it properly.B. Producing it cheaply.C. Developing its properties quickly.D. Evaluating its contributions fairly.68. According to the inventors, shrilk has great potential partly because _________.A. it can help plastic degradeB. it can be found in living thingsC. its mass production has been realizedD. its raw materials are abundant in nature69. What are the inventors doing in the lab?A. Replacing carbon fibers with shrilk.B. Testing shrilk‟s use in wet conditions.C. Making shrilk out of used household goods.D. Improving shrilk‟s flexibility for medical purposes.70. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. Recent Progress in Environmental ProtectionB. Benefits of Insects in Scientific ResearchC. The Harm of One-time ProductsD. A Possible Alternative to PlasticPart IV Writing (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.Since the earliest civilizations, people have controlled rivers to meet society‟s demands. Today, rivers are controlled for many reasons, primarily to maintain reliable water supplies for daily, agricultural and industrial needs, for power generation, for navigation (航行), and to prevent flooding.River control is achieved by channelization, a term that covers a range of river engineering works, including widening, deepening, straightening and stabilization of banks, and by the construction of dams.An important period of channelization took place in Europe during the 19th century, when many large rivers were straightened and their beds deepened. One of the most dramatically changed was the Tisza River, a branch of the Danube that flows through Hungary. The controlling of the Tisza, designed to reduce flooding and make land for agriculture, included cutting off more than 100 meanders (河曲), shortening the river‟s length by nearly 400 kilometers.One of the most common ways in which people control rivers is by damming them. The past 50 years or so has seen an increase in dam construction worldwide, and at the beginning of the 21st century, there were about 800,000 dams globally, some towering more than 200 meters in height.Despite their successes, many dams also cause significant environmental changes that prove harmful. Some particularly deep reservoirs (水库) can bring about earthquakes due to the stress on their bottom rocks caused by huge volumes of water. Downstream of a reservoir, the river is certainly influenced in many way s：water volume, speed and quality are all affected, leading to changes in the landscape and among plants and animals.Section B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage, Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.A wise teacher once told me that every teenager needs to experience a not-so-fun first job from working at a grocery store to the fast food industry.Now I still remember my first day at a fast food restaurant three years ago. I wanted to save up money and buy my own car, so I applied everywhere I could that summer. The restaurant called me right away and I thought to myself, this is going to be easy. Within four hours of my first shift (轮班), I had angry customers who complained how slow I was. I watched in fear as a kid spilled his milk everywhere, and I heard the words that no 16-year-old boy or anyone for that matter wants to hear：“Mike, there‟s a problem in the men‟s bathroom and you might want gloves for this one.”I realized right away that working at the restaurant was not going to be a picnic. The manager expected a clean environment and, particularly, fast service with a friendly smile.Over three years later I still work at that restaurant whenever I go home during vacations. I love my co-workers there and all the customers know who I am. Every morning the same senior citizens come in and get their morning coffees. They chat with us workers and joke around. Our smiles have just as much to do with them making us a part of their everyday lives as the coffee does.From my first job at the restaurant, I learned teamwork and devotion. I also learned staying positive no matter how rough things seem to get. I will forever carry the experience that I gained at the restaurant with me as I go forward in my life.81. Why did the author apply everywhere that summer? (No more than 12 words) (2 marks)_______________________________________________________________________________ 82. What did the manager particularly expect the workers to do? (No more than 14 words)(3 marks)_______________________________________________________________________________ 83. Why does the author still work at the restaurant during vacations? (No more than 13 words) (2 marks)_______________________________________________________________________________ 84. What did the author learn from his first job? (No more than 13 words) (3 marks)_______________________________________________________________________________Section C (25 marks)Directions: Write an English composition according to the instructions given below in Chinese.生活中，你自己或他人有过物品不慎丢失而又找回的经历，其间有烦恼、有惊喜、有感慨……请就此写一篇英语短文。

Is it the price you see on the gift receipt? Or is it the look on the recipient's face when they receive it that determines the true value? What gift is worth the most?This Christmas I was debating what to give my father．My dad is a hard person to buy for because he never wants anything．I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we wereleaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across a message on my phone that I had locked．The message was from my father．My eyes fell on a photo of a flower taken in Wyoming．and underneath a poem by William Blake．The flower, a lone dandelion standing against the bright blue sky, inspired me．My dad had been reciting those words to me since I was a kid．That may even be the reason why I love writing．I decided that those words would be my gift to my father.I called back．I told my mom to go without me and that I already created my gift．I sent the photo of the cream-colored flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it．As I was arranging the details another poem came to mind．The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe; my dad recited it as much as he did the other．I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of it．The poem was focused around dreaming, and after searching I found the perfect picture．The image was painted with blues and greens and purples, twisting together to create the theme and wonder of a dream．As I watched both poems passing through the printer, the white paper coloring with words that shaped my childhood．I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate.Christmas soon arrived．The minute I saw the look on my dad's face as he unwrapped those swirling black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame, I knew I had given the perfect gift.{TS}The idea for a special gift began to form when the author was___________.A. doingshoppingB. havingadebateC. readingamessageD. leavingforWyoming(2)The author's inspiration for the gift came from__________.A. aphotoofaflowerB. astoryaboutakidC. acallfromthemotherD. atextaboutChristmas(3)The underlined word<strong> "it"</strong> in Paragraph 3 refers to a poem by__________.A. thefatherB. theauthorC.

Todescribethegiftstheauthorhasreceived(6)根据材料回答{TSE}题：Still seeking a destination for your weekend break? There are some places which areprobably a mere walk away from your college.<strong>King's Art Centre</strong>A day at the Centre could mean a visit to an exhibition of the work of one of the mostinteresting contemporary artists on show anywhere．This weekend tees the opening of an exhibition of four local artists.You could attend a class teaching you how to 'learn from the masters' or get more creative with paint ---- free of charge.The Centre also runs two life drawing classes for which there is a small fee.<strong>The Botanic Garden</strong>The Garden has over 8,000 plant species; it holds the research and teaching collection of living plants for Cambridge University.The multi-branched <em>Torch Aloe </em>here is impressive．The African plant produces red flowers above blue-green leaves, and is not one to miss.Get to the display house to see <em>Dionaea muscipula</em>, a plant more commonly known as the Venus Flytrap that feeds on insects and other small animals.The Garden is also a place for wildlife-enthusiasts．Look for grass snakes in the lake．A snake called 'Hissing Sid' is regularly seen lying in the heat of the warm sun.<strong>Byron's Pool</strong>Many stories surround Lord Byron's time as a student of Cambridge University, Arriving in 1805, he wrote a letter complaining that it was a place of "mess and drunkenness"．However, it seems as though Byron did manage to pass the time pleasantly enough．I'm not just talking about the pet bear he kept in his roans．He spent a great deal of time walking in the village.It is also said that on occasion Byron swam naked by moonlight in the lake, which is now known as Byron's Pool．A couple of miles past Grantchester in the south Cambridgeshire countryside, the pool is surrounded by beautiful circular paths around the fields．The cries of invisible birds make the trip a lovely experience and on the way home you can drop into the village for afternoon tea．If you don't trust me, then perhaps you’ll take it from Virginia Woolf- ----over a century after Byron, she reportedly took a trip to swim in the same pool.{TS}As mentioned in the passage, thereis a small charge for__________.A. attendingthemasters'classB. workingwithlocalartistsC. learninglifedrawingD. seeinganexhibition(7)"Torch Aloe" and "Venus Flytrap" are__________.A. commoninsectsB. impressiveplantsC. rarely-seensnakesD. wildlife-enthusiasts(8)We can infer from the passage that Byron seemed__________.A. tofearpetbearsB. tolikewalkingC. tobeaheavydrinkerD. tofinishuniversityin1805(9)In the passage Byron's Pool is described as a lake__________.A. surroundedbyfieldsB. ownedbyLordByronC. locatedinGrantchesterD. discoveredbyVirginiaWoolf(10)What is the passage mainly about?A. SomeplacesforweekendbreakB. AwaytobecomecreativeinarC. ThecolourfullifeinthecountrysidD. UnknownstoriesofCambridgeUniversit(11)根据材料回答{TSE}题：Harvard researchers have created a tough, low-cost, biodegradable (可生物降解的) material inspired by insects' hard outer shells．The material's inventors say it has a number of possible uses and someday could provide a more environmentally friendly alternative to plastic．The material, made from shrimp ('虾) shells and proteins produced from silk, is called "shrilk." It is thin, clear, flexible and strong.A major benefit of the material is its biodegradability．Plastic's toughness and flexibility represented a revolution in materials science during the 1950s and '60s．Decades later, however, plastic's very durability(耐用性) is raising questions about how appropriate it is for one-time products such as plastic bags, or short-lived consumer goods, used in the home for a few years and then cast into a landfill where they will degrade for centuries．What is the point of making something that lasts 1,000 years?Shrilk not only will degrade in a landfill, but its basic components are used as fertilizer(肥料), and so will enrich the soil.Shrilk has great potential, the inventors said．Materials from which it is made are plentiful in nature, found in everything ranging from shrimp shells, insect bodies to living plants．That makes shrilk low cost, and its mass production possible should it be used for products demanding a lot of material.Work on shrilk is continuing in the lab．The inventors said the material becomes flexible when wet, so they're exploring ways to use it in wet environments．They're also developing simpler production processes, which could be used for non-medical products, like for computer cases and other products inside the home．They're even exploring combining it with other materials, like carbon fibers, to give it new properties.{TS}Paragraph I of the passage is mainly about shritk's__________.A. remarkabledesignB. interestingnameC. majorfeaturesD. basicelements(12)What has become a concern about plastic?A. UsingitproperlB. ProducingitcheaplC. DevelopingitspropertiesquicklD.

There is only one place where you’ll find all these information, and that’s in the Guinness Book ofWorld Records. This morning we have someone from the Guinness Company that produced that famous book, Thomas Manning. “Welcome to the program, Thomas!”“Thanks, Sue. It’s a pleasure to be here.”“Perhaps you could start by telling us where the idea for the book came from.”“Well, it was first suggested in the early 1950s. Sir Hugh Beaver, the managing director of Guinness, was out shooting birds with some friends. A bird flew away so quickly that no one was able to shoot it. Sir Hugh wondered whether this bird was the fastest bird in Europe, and if it wasn’t the fastest, he wondered what was.”“So I suppose he went to the nearest library to look for the information and he couldn’t find it?”“Yes,that’s exactly what happened. And this made Sir Hugh think there must be other people in the same situation who wanted this kind of information. He thought that, like himself, people would be interested in finding facts of all records to satisfy their curiosity.”“So the idea for a book of records was born. And when did the first book come out?”“A few years later, in 1955. So, to ask your first question: the tallest person in the world is 231.7cm tall. And the oldest person is Jeanne. L. Calment, who was born in February, 1875.”“There are also some rather strange records, aren’t there, Thomas?”“Yes,that’s right. Did you know, Sue, that the shortest time it is taken …”2019高中教师读书心得体会作为教师，在教授知识的提示，也应该利用空暇时刻渐渐品读一些好书，吸收书中的精华。

This is the 36 I have learned from a movie called just that: pay it Forward. The main character David invites homeless people into his house so that he can pay forward others’ love toward him.37 by the plot, I decided to donate blood as my own way of “Paying it forward”.One sunny afternoon, I went to a blood donation station in Jining. That afternoon was also my 18th birthday. I thought of what I was doing as a wonderful gift to 38 and to others.There was a long queue of 39 . I joined it excitedly but became more and more 40 as the queue moved forward. Finally, it was my turn. I filled out an application form and had a physical examination. Then I started to give blood.I sat down 41 a large box and extended my left hand. “Are you ready?” said the doctor with a warm smile. “Yep!” I replied with a confident smile 42 . The needle was inserted into my vein（静脉）and a stinging（刺痛的）pain hit me. Seeing the red blood flowing, I felt a bit sick and dizzy.“You should clench（紧握）and release your fist,” the doctor said. “Keep doing that43 I tell you to stop.” I clenched and released throughout the whole process and44 calmed down. By the end they had 400ml of my blood.It means a lot to me that I 45 the start of my adult life with a blood donation. I showed how I 46 people in need.

She did not want to go back to the shop, 52 it was very late, so she cut a picture of some cheese out of 53 magazine and put that in the trap.Surprisingly, the picture of the cheese was quite successful! When the lady came down to the kitchen the 54 morning she found a picture of a mouse in the trap beside the picture of the 55 !Part III Reading Comprehension (30 marks)Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.ABeing sociable looks like a good way to add years to your life. Relationships with family, friends, neighbours, even pets, will all work, but the biggest longevity (长寿) increase seems to come from marriage or an equal relationship. The effect was first noted in 1858 by William Farr, who wrote that widows and widowers (鳏夫) were at a much higher risk of dying than their married peers. Studies since then suggest that marriage could add as much as seven years to a man’s life and two to a woman’s. The effect holds for all causes of death, whether illness, accident or self-harm.Even if the conditions are not good for you, marriage can more than compensate. Linda Waite of the University of Chicago has found that a married older man with heart disease can expect to live nearly four years longer than an unmarried man with a healthy heart. Likewise, a married man who smokes more than a pack a day is likely to live as long as a divorced man who doesn’t smoke. There’s a flip side, however, as partners are more likely to become ill or die in the couple of years following their husband’s or wife’s death, and caring for a husband or wife with mental disorder can leave you with some of the same severe problems. Even so, the odds favour marriage. In a 30-year study of more than 10,000 people, Nicholas Christakis of Harvard Medical School describes how all kinds of social networks have similar effects.So how does it work? The effects are complex, affected by socio-economic factors, health-service provision, emotional support and other more physiological (生理的) parts. For example, social contact can increase development of the brain and immune system, leading to better health and less chance of depression later in life. People in supportive relationships may handle stress better. Then there are the psychological benefits of a supportive partner.A life partner, children and good friends are all recommended if you aim to live to 100. The ultimate social network is still being mapped out, but Christakis says: “People are interconnected, so their health is interconnected.”56. William Farr’s study and other studies show that _________.A. social life provides an effective cure for illnessB. being sociable helps improve one’s quality of lifeC. women benefit more than men from marriageD. marriage contributes a great deal to longevity57. Linda Waite’s studies support the idea that _________.A. older men should quit smoking to stay healthyB. marriage can help make up for ill healthC. the married are happier than the unmarriedD. unmarried people are likely to suffer in later life58. The underlined phrase “flip side” in Paragraph. 2 refers to _________.A. the disadvantages of being marriedB. the emotional problems arising from marriageC. the responsibility of taking care of one’s familyD. the consequence of a broken marriage59. What does Nicholas say about social networks ?A. They don’t include marriage relationships.B. They help develop people’s community spirit.C. They have similar effects regardless of kind.D. They help relieve people of their life’s burdens.60. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. It’s important that we develop a social network when young.B. To stay healthy, one should have a proper social network.C. Getting a divorce means risking a reduced life span.D. We should share our social networks with each other.BHigh school dropouts（辍学者）earn an average of $ 9,000 less per year than graduates. Now a new study moves away a common belief why they quit. It’s much more than failing in exams at school.Society tends to think of high school dropouts as kids who just can’t cut it. They are lazy，and perhaps not too bright. So researchers were surprised when they asked more than 450 kids who quit school about why they left.“The vast majority actually had passing grades and they were confident that they could have graduated from high school.” John Bridgeland, the executive researcher said. About 1 million teens leave school each year. Only about half of African-American and Hispanic（美籍西班牙的）student will receive a diploma，and actually all dropouts come to regret their decision. So，if failing grades don’t explain why these kids quit, what does? Again，John Bridgeland："The most dependable finding was that they were bored.”“They found classes uninteresting; they weren’t inspired or motivated. They didn’t see any direct connection between what they were learning in the classroom to their own lives, or to their possible careers .”The study found that most teens who do drop out wait until they turn sixteen, which happens to be the age at which most states allow students to quit. In the US，only one state，New Mexico，has a law requiring teenagers to stay in high schooluntil they graduate. Only four states: California, Tennessee, Texas and Utah, plus the District of Columbia, require school attendance until age 18, no exceptions, another researcher says raising the compulsory attendance age may be one way to keep more kids in school．“As these dropouts look back，they realize they’ve made a mistake. And anything that sort of gives these people an extra push to stick it out and it through to the end is probably a helpful measure.”New Hampshire may be the next state to raise its school attendance age to 18. But critics say that forcing the students unwilling to continue their studies to stay in school misses the point－the need for reform. It's been called for to reinvent high school education to make it more challenging and relevant, and to ensure that kids who do stick it out receive a diploma that actually means something61. Most high school students drop out of school because＿＿．A. they often fail in examsB. they are lazy and not intelligentC. they are discriminated againstD. they find school learning boring62. According to the passage，which state will have a law requiring school attendance until 18?A. CaliforniaB. Utah.C. New MexicoD. New Hampshire63. What do the dropouts think of their decision to quit school?A. It was a good idea.B. It was interesting and instructive.C. It was a mistake.D. It was a success.64. What is the author’s attitude towards high school students dropping out ofschool?A. IndifferentB. PositiveC. NegativeD. Neutral.65. What is the purpose of the author writing this article?A. To raise awareness of educational reforming in the USA.B. To introduce the measures to stop students from dropping out of school.C. To introduce the different regulations in the USA about students dropping out of school.D. To analyze the reasons why many students drop out of school.CHere's a scene：a village where the sunalways shines，crops always grow and yourfriends drop by to sweep your yard to thesound of guitar music．Animals do what theyare told，there is no disease，and lendin’folks a helpin’hand makes you richer andwiser．Welcome to FarmVille—Current population 69m and rising fast．“It reminds me of my childhood，”says one player, Lia Curran，37，a nurse from London．“Right now I'm growing wheat and flowers. I've got a small garden, and I'm raising some chickens and some cows. I like having the animals. It's relaxing.” Curran's animals, however, is nothing more than a collection of cartoons. FarmVille is an online computer game built into the social networking site Facebook and is described by its players as “addictive”. Launched last June by Zynga Game Network, FarmVille now has many players—more than the population of the UK. The players are largely women over the age of 35.FarmVille unites the worlds of social networking and gaming．Players are given a ground with six fields，“cash”，a few seeds and a plough and have to build up wealth，skills and neighbors to create bigger，better，richer farms．Inviting your online friends to play means you earn more and get free gifts；you rise rapidly through the first levels but，once hooked，have to work harder and harder with no final level or goal in sight．“Games like this draw people into a fantasy world that's separate from real life where there are no issues，and where things are simple and controllable，”Brian Dudley says．In November，he opened the UK's first computer games addiction clinic，treating online gamers who stayed at the keyboard for up to eight hours a day—“the tip of the iceberg”，he says．Two weeks ago，a group of US players launched a class action against Zynga and Facebook．“Most，if not all，of the online advertisements presented through Zynga are scams(骗局)，”the lawsuit states．“The advertisements are highly misleading and often result in users ordering goods or services that they do not want or need．”According to Nick O'neill from the social media site All Facebook，Zynga is making $500，000(￡304，000)a day，from its Facebook games，in turn spending some $50m(￡30m)a year on Facebook ads．If all that weren't enough，FarmVille doesn't even function like a proper farm：in FarmVille，wheat grows in two days—in real life，it takes months．But play continues nevertheless．66．Why does Lia Curran，37 can manage to raise aninmals in FarmVille ?A. She likes recalling the days when she was a child.B. She can play the guitar beautifully with her hands all the time.C. She can make some chickens lay eggs for her breakfast.D.

Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.The world would have been so much better if we all knew to say and do the right thing at the right time. However , that is not the case, especially when it comes to instilling (逐步培养) proper behavior in kids. Behavior modification(BM) techniques were recently created to help in instilling proper behavior in children as well as adults.Behavior modification refers to establishing appropriate behaviors in individuals and discouraging those that are not desirable. The techniques are used in behavior modification therapy that aims to correct and instill appropriate behavior in children.The most commonly used behavior modification techniques are positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement and punishment. Positive reinforcement refers to reinforcing a desired behavior through the process of rewarding it. Negative reinforcement behavioral strategies are based on the removal of a negative consequence or a behavior because the desired behavior was performed. Punishment refers to subjecting(使服从于) an individual to a negative condition because of an inappropriate behavior.The behavior modification techniques for children are mostly based on positive and negative reinforcement. However, parents should realize that these techniques can’t be relied upon totally for child behavior modification. This can be done through effective communication and greater focus on the parent-child relationship. As a parent, don’t make the reward a monetary one. Try to make it look more like a privilege than a reward.Although we talk so much about the role of a parent in bringing positive behavior modification in children, both parents and teachers have equally important roles to play. Teachers play their role through preventive classroom management, teaching social problem-solving skills like alternative thinking , and continuous monitoring of a child’s behavior. It is true that there are various behaviormodification techniques available for encouraging proper behavior in children. However, there is nothing that can take the place of proper parenting and an affectionate environment.Title：71__________I.

Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.A man had a little daughter—an only and much-loved child. The girl was very lovely and beautiful. Every day the girl would sing and dance for him. They lived together happily. He was very proud of her. Whenever talking about his daughter, he always thought he was the happiest father in the world. He lived for her—shewas his life. So when one day she became seriously ill, he became like a crazy man, moving heaven and earth to bring about her restoration to health.His best efforts, however, proved unavailing and the child died. He felt his own life was gone with his little daughter. The father became a bitter recluse(隐居者), shutting himself away from his many friends and refusing every activity that might restore his confidence and bring him back to his normal self. But one night he had a dream.He was in heaven, witnessing a grand pageant of all the little child angels. They were marching in a line passing by the Great White Throne. Every white-robed angelic child carried a candle. He noticed that one child's candle was not lighted. Then he saw that the child with the dark candle was his own little girl. Rushing to her, he seized her in his arms, kissed her tenderly, and then asked, "How is it, darling, that your candle alone is unlighted?" "Daddy, they often relight it, but your tears always put it out."Just then he awoke from his dream. The lesson was crystal clear, and its effects were immediate. From that hour on he was not a recluse, but communicated freely and cheerfully with his former friends and associates. No longer would his darling's candle be extinguished by his useless tears.81.
