Happy Birthday!” That’s 20 . I thought he was making a joke!Although I was 21 deeply by his generosity(慷慨), accepting money from a homeless man was embarrassing for me. I felt very uncomfortable. So I replied, “Thanks, but…” Looking directly into my eyes, he said, “God is so good to me. Every night, I always end up with a place to 22 and enough food to eat. Please take this.” I held out my 23 —without thinking twice, saying, “Thank you.”This was one of my 24 life lessons—however poor we may feel, we always have something valuable to share with others.

may throw away the nuts(核)after eating fruits,but artists of nut carving(核雕)have instead collected them and turned them into artworks."One nut,from 0.8 to 6 centimeters,can be made into beautiful earrings and other artworks,"said Tan Wanhai,the top artist of Weifang nut carving.The history of nut carving might start from the Qing Dynasty (1636- 1912).During that time,Wang Dayan,the best artist in the Palace Museum,spread the skill to the local people in Shandong province.Becauseof the difficult carving skills required and its rich artistic meanings,Weifang nut carving was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage in 2008." It's ▲ to bring this kind of traditional art to life," said Tan,the 48-year-old artist."Every nut looks different before being carved,"Tan added.Artists have to study each nut to carefully plan out theirartwork.Besides,according to Tan,they have to learn about some skills in painting and handwriting art from many traditional cultures."In order to show folk stories from ancient times,I need to read many books to enrich myself.""Artists in the past have been wise enough to turn common things into objects of beauty.In recent years,thanks to the creative ideas of artists in Weifang,nut carving artworks have been increasingly welcomed by people in China,"Tan said."This popularity,in turn,has also attracted many young people to learn the traditional skills of nut carving,create new skills and even help to pass down the skills to future artists."26.From the passage we can learn that a nut carving artwork is____.A.usually made of a fruit nut B.over 8 centimeters longC.a form of modern art D.an invention by Wang Dayan27.Which of the following can be put in the ▲ ?A.possible B.hard C.a habit D.a pity28.According to the passage,we can infer that____.A.Tan was born and grew up in ShandongB.Tan is talented in all traditional art formsC.Tan teaches nut carving in Palace MuseumD.Tan is a knowledgeable artist of nut carving29.If you are required to add one paragraph to the passage,it might be about____.A.the history of nut carvingB.the disappearing of nut carvingC.a traditional folk storyD.the development of nut carving阅读理解On the first day of school,our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn't already know.I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder.I turned around to find a wrinkled,little old lady with a smile.She said,"Hi,handsome!My name is Rose.I'm eighty-seven yearsold.Can I give you a hug?"I laughed and warmly responded,"Of course you may!" She gave me a giant squeeze (拥抱). "Why areyou in college at such a young,innocent (幼稚的)age?" I asked.She jokingly replied,"I'm here to meet a rich husband,get married,have a couple of children,and then retire and travel.""No,seriously?" I asked.I was curious what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age."I always dreamed of having a college education and now I'm getting one!" she told me.After class we walked to the Student Union building and shared a chocolate milkshake.We became instant friends.Every day of the next three months we would leave class together and talk nonstop.I was always attracted listening to this "time machine" as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.Over the course of the year,Rose became a campus icon (校园偶像)and she easily made friends wherever she went.She loved to dress up and enjoyed the attention from other students.She was living it up.At the end of the term,we invited Rose to speak at a student gathering.I'll never forget what she taught us. "We do not stop playing because we are old;we grow old because we stop playing.There are only four secrets to staying young,being happy,and achieving success.You have to laugh and find humor every day.You've got to have a dream.When you lose your dreams,you die.There are so many people walking around who are dead,and they don't even know it." she said."There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up.Anybody can grow older.That doesn't take any talent or ability," she added. "But growing up requires finding opportunities in change.Have no regrets.The elderly usually don't have regrets for what we did,but rather for things we did not do. "She concluded her speech by courageously singing The Rose.She challenged each of us to study the lyrics (歌词)and live them out in our daily life.At the year's end Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years.We'd always keep her in mind because it is the wonderful woman who taught us by example that it's never too late to be all you can possibly be. 30.Why did Rose go to college according to the passage?A.To share her wisdom and experience.B.To find out the secret of living longer.C.To make her college dream come true.D.To get married to a wealthy husband.31.The meaning of the underlined phrase "living it up" probably means____.A.enjoying life B.growing olderC.working hard D.losing herself32.Which of the correct order of the following events?a.Rose graduated from college.b.Rose gave an encouraging speech.c.Rose and the writer became friends.d.Rose introduced herself to the writer.e.Rose became popular among students.f.Rose greeted the writer with a big hug.A.f-e-b-c B.f-c-a-b C.d-b-e-a D.d-c-b-a33.What lesson can we learn from Rose's story?A.Being generous to people can gain respect from them.B.Growing up is easy while growing older needs efforts.C.Doing what we dream of leads to no regrets in the future.D.Never to stop studying makes people stay young forever.阅读理解Schools and universities can set up full-time or part-time positions of sports coaches. A guideline issued(颁发)by the General Administration of Sport(体育总局)and three other departments in January, 2023, said that these school coaches can not only help students get higher level in sports but also become members of sports teachers when some schools are in need of them.Local governments can provide a certain number of school coaching positions for retired(退役的)high-level sportsmen. After getting teaching certificates, school coaches can become sports teachers, too. Sports teachers can also become school coaches after getting coaching certificates.School coaches are responsible to train sports skills of students, organize physical training and choose future sports talents. Also, it's their job to organize school sports competitions, manage school sports teams and sports clubs and so on.Connecting sports with education is an important way to improve students' health.

B.No.1 and No.4.C.No.3 and No.4. D.No.2 and No.3.3.No.4 can most probably be .A.a government office B.a hospitalC.a restaurant D.a hotelB14、When something goes wrong, it can be very satisfying to say, “Well, it’s so-and-so’s mistake.” or “I know I’m late, but it’s not my fault; the car broke down.” It is probably not your mistake, but once you form the habit of blaming (指责) somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser. Y ou have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how toremedy the situation. This is the winner’s key to success.Winners are great at solving problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so youcould call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague (同事) causes you problems on the job for being short of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don’t depend on the person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.This is what being a winner is all about – creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and chances to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “whose mistake it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stones for success.1.(小题1)What does the unde rlined word “remedy” probably mean?A.Avoid. B.Accept.C.Improve. D.Consider.2.(小题2)When your colleague brings about a problem, you should ______.A.blame him for his being short of responsibilityB.find a better way to deal with the problemC.tell him to find the cause of the problemD.ask a more able colleague for help3.(小题3)What can be the best title for the passage?A.A Winner’s Secret. B.A Winner’s Chance.C.A Winner’s Problem. D.A Winner’s Progress.C15、Sports, school are tiring. But there is a great way tounwindafter all of those activities. Go to north London, to the coolest part of the city---Camden. There you can find fashion trends (流行,趋向) and famous people.Sam and I walked down Camden High Street and made our way to a bridge over Regent’s Canal. It is a 9-mileman-made river that goes through London.We went into a big market and saw crazy signs, fun T-shirts, and things like hand-made earrings for sale. We bought Chinese fried noodles. It tasted very different from the noodles we make at home, and we ate it with a fork instead of chopsticks!Camden is famous for the punk(朋克)style that started in the 1970s. Punks walked around with bright pink and green hair, broken clothes with safety pins, metal buttons(纽扣)and pierced ears and lips. Punk music shops played loud, heavy rock music.But there were also groups of hippies(嬉皮士)with big sweaters. They sat in cafes drinking soymilk, with black clothes, black lipstick and painted white faces.Besides all these “normal” people, a lot of famous people come to Camden. Actor Orlando Bloom from Pirates of t he Caribbean lives there.Camden is especially known as a home to famous musicians. Lots of top bands played here, including Coldplay,Oasis---and Sam’s favourite band, The Vaccines. I had never heard of them before---But luckily they were playing that night in Camden.1.The passage is mainly about ________ in Camden.A.the punks B.the fashion trendsC.the hippies D.the famous musicians2.The underlined word “ unwind” in the first paragraph means _________.A.stay at home B.go out for a walkC.study hard D.have a good time3.What did Sam and the writer do at the big market?A.They bought some hand-made earrings .B.They ate some Chinese fried noodles.C.They used chopsticks instead of a fork.D.They found some crazy signs about T-shirts4.Which of the following is the punk style?A.Tom wears broken clothes with metal buttons.B.Jim has short black hair and wears a blue suit.C.Light music is played loudly in punk music shopD.Mary has a big sweater and paints her face white.D16、Evolution (进化) has changed our b odies and faces over thousands of years, and it’s still happening. Here’s how experts predict (预测) what people will be like in 1,000 years.We’ll be about 1.83~2.13 metres tall because of improved nutrition (营养) and medical science. Our arms and fingers will get longer to reduce the need to reach too far.We’ll have smaller brains, maybe because computers will help us memorize and think most of the things.There will be larger eyes and smaller mouths. And there may be fewer teeth as softer food needs less chewing and biting. We could even get our nutrition from liquids or pills in the future.We can expect other great changes too. Everyone will have the same shape of noses. That’s because climate will have less influence on noses with the help of air conditioning and central heating. Besides, we will have more wrinkles (皱纹) as a result of looking at our electronic devices.We also may end up with saggy (松弛的) necks because extra sun will cause loose skin. And there will be darker skin as people move around the planet and races (种族) mix.根据材料内容选择最佳答案,并将其标号填入题前括号内。

Money is more important than other things in the US.(B)Kobe Bryant, a super basketball star, announced that he would retire at the end of the 2019-16 season through a letter poem. In the letter, he recalled his life of basketball.Kobe Bryant was born with basketball already in his blood. His dad was a former NBA star. When Kobe was six years old, his dad started playing basketball in Europe, so his family moved to Italy. The family stayed there for seven years. While living in Italy, Kobe started playing basketball.The family moved back to the United States when Kobe was 13 and he started playing highschool basketball. When Kobe finished high school, he thought he was already good enough to play in the NBA. Although he didn’t go to college, Kobe was a quick learner on the courts of the NBA. He played in the NBA All-Star Game for the first time in 2019 and by 2019, Kobe had developed into one of the best basketball players. Kobe and Shaquille O'Neal teamed up to lead the LA Lakers to three NBA Championship Titles from 2019 to 2019.In 2019, Kobe was caught by the police. In 2019, the case against Kobe was dropped. That year, O'Neal was traded to the Heat. Though the Lakers didn't play well in the next few years, the 2019-2019 season is when the LA Lakers finally went on to have the best record of any team.Kobe had won 17 NBA All-Stars Selections, five NBA Championships with the Lakers, two Olympic gold medals.

To recycle is to take rubbish and make it into something new. Recycling is good for our planet because it makes junk into something that we can use again. Recycling also helps to clean up the litter that makes our streets look dirty.All kinds of things can be recycled. The most common materials like glass, plastic, paper,第 - 1 - 页metals, cloth are all recyclable. Sometimes these products are broken down to make the same kinds of products(产品). An example of this type of recycling is using paper to make more paper. Garbage can also be broken down to make completely new items as well!Some items, like glass, can be recycled forever! We can use glass items, then break them down and use them again and again. Aluminum(铝) cans are one of the most successful recycled metals. They can be recycled again and again and nearly 60% of all cans have been recycled.The average family of four can produce nearly 2,000 pounds of garbage each year. As time goes on, we have fewer places to put all of this garbage in. Recycling is one way to limit(限制)the amount of garbage we need to put into the land.The next time you toss a can or bottle into the garbage can, look to see if there is a recycling triangle on the label. It is the international sign for recycling. It means that the item you are going to throw in the dustbin could be recycled.( ) 36. To recycle is to ______.A. Clean up the dirty things on the streetB.

The importance of protecting the environment(D)Linda Evans was my best friend—like the sister I never had. We did everything together: piano lessons, movies, swimming, and horseback riding.When I was 13, my family moved away. Linda and I kept in touch through letters, and we saw each other on special time—like my wedding and Linda’s. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent came back, stamped “Address Unknown.” I had no idea how to find Linda. Over the years, I missed Linda very much. I wanted to share happiness of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.One day I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked very much like Linda and whose last name was Wagman —Linda’s married name. “There must be thousands of Wagmans,” I thought, but J still wrote to her.She called as soon as she got my letter. “Mrs. Tobin!” she said excitedly, “Linda Evans Wagman is my mother.” Minutes later I heard a voice that I knew very much, even after 40 years, laughed and cried and caught up on each other’s lives. Now the e mpty place in my heart is filled. And there’s one thing that Linda and I know for sure: We won’t lose each other again!( ) 41.

And I was very surprised to know that you decided to drop out of school and wanted to be a model.Being a model for a living is not easy. In fact, a famous person like me has a lot of problems that you couldn't see. I can't eat what I like, even though I'm very hungry. Keeping thin makes me look more beautiful on the stage because no one would like to see a heavy model.Besides, I have to wear a heavy coat in the hot sun, in a swimming suit in the cold air. And practising walking nicely every day is tiring for me.You might say I made much money from modeling. But my dear niece(侄女),you have to know that money is nothing, knowledge is everything. School is important and everyone should go to school for a certain period of time. The longer they stay at school, the better they will be. Very often, I hope I can give up my job and continue my studies at school. But it is very difficult for me to go back to school again. I'm too old to go back to school now.You are a pretty young girl with a bright future. You only have one year to finish your studies in high school. A year is really short. Please do consider my words carefully before you decide. Of course, there is only one thing I care about, and that is your happiness.LoveEmma(1)What was Emma surprised about?A.Alice wanted to keep thin.B.Alice decided to do nothing.C.Alice ate too much and became a heavy girl.D.Alice decided not to finish her studies at school.(2)Emma can't go back to school again, because .A.she is tired of being a studentB.she wants to make money from modelingC.she is so old that she has missed the best time in schoolD.she has done a good job and makes a lot of money as a model(3)How long does Alice still have to study in high school?A.One year.B.Two years.C.Three years.D.The longer, the better.(4)Emma only cares about .A.Alice's beauty B.Alice's happinessC.Alice's age D.Alice's swimming suit(5)From the letter we know that .A.Emma is a famous modelB.Emma likes being a model for a livingC.Alice will go on her studies in high schoolD.Emma can eat what she likes when she is very hungry4.阅读理解Everybody knows the story of Titanic and the iceberg hit it on the night of April 14, 1912.

How could this happen? People used to think that hard work is the only way to success. But now they understand that smart work can make them success, too.Hard workers don't mind working for long hours, while smart workers always think of several different answers to these questions. "Why should I suffer this?" "Isn't there a better way to do this?" Thanks to these people, we can use computers instead of the abacus now. Progress in every field is the direct result of "try to find a better way" by smart workers.There was a large soap factory in Japan. Once it received an unusual letter from someone who complained that there was no soap in the soapbox he bought.How could empty soapbox go out of the factory? The engineers checked the producing and packing. The producing was fine, but in about one in ten thousand cases, the packing machines let an empty soapbox go. There was no need to spend a lot of money repairing the machine for such a small problem. The engineersoon worked out a solution. He put a large X-ray(X 射线) machine and two large computers to find out the empty soapbox. After teaching the workers how to use it, he sat down in his seat, exhausted(精疲力尽)."Sir, we could have solved the problems in a much simpler and cheaper way." a worker said. "Really? How?""We can put a huge fan(电扇) near the packing machine. The wind coming from the fan will blow away the empty boxes, leaving the other boxes with soap. There would be no need for an X-ray machine, two computers, and operating by workers."See, this is smart work. In order to succeed, we should not only work hard like the engineers, but also think smart like the workers.(1)Some students spend much less time on schoolwork but do much better in exams .A.because of their hard workB.because of different educationC.because they try to find a better wayD.because they study for much longer time(2)Someone wrote to the soap factory and complained that .A.the soapbox he bought was empty B.their soap was too expensiveC.the soap he bought was terrible D.their service was very bad(3)The soap factory could only near the packing machine to solve the problems in a much simpler and cheaper way.A.set some soapboxes B.set an X-ray machineC.put two large computers D.put a huge fan(4)The underlined phrase "blow away" means .A.停止B.吹走C.挑出D.逃脱(5)The article mainly tells us that we should in order to succeed.A.think of different answers to our questionsB.spend much less time on our schoolworkC.work hard like the engineers and think smart like the workersD.spend enough money repairing the machine for any problem6.阅读理解[来Good news!

television at the age of 21.Tim started working on early computers.At that time,they were much bigger than now.He worked in England then Switzerland.Tim was really interested in two things,computers and how the brain works.How could the brain connect so many facts so quickly?He had to work with people all over the world.They shared information about computers.It was hard to manage all the information.He answered the same questions again and again.took a lot of time.It was even difficult for computers in the same office in Switzerland to share information.Tim also forgot things easily.Could a computer work like a brain?Could it"talk"to other computers?There was an Internet already but it was difficult to use.In 1989,Tim Berners﹣Lee invented the World Wide Web(WWW) all by himself.This had a special language that helped computers talk to each other on the Internet.When people wanted to share information with others,they used the World Wide Web.The Internet grew quickly after that.Tim Berners﹣Lee doesn't think he did anything special.He says that all of the ideas about the Internet were already there.All he did was to put them together.He says that many other people worked together to make the Internet what it is today.Most inventors want to become rich.But Tim gave away the World Wide Web for nothing.He now works in America.He helps people share technology and

public library.A library usually has a largeselection of books and other resources,which library me mbers can useand borrow for free.Britain's First Public LibraryThe first public library in Britain opened in Manchester in1852.It's firstlibrarian was a man called Edward Edwards,Edwards attended the library'sopening ceremony and two famous writers called Charles Dickens and WilliamThackeray were there too.How to Join aLibraryTo join a library,go to your local library and fill in a form.you'll receive a library card which is needed when using library services.Mobile LibrariesNot everyone can get a library.Some people live far away from towns and cities.Other people find it difficult to go out because they have an illness or a disability.Thanks to mobile libraries,these people can still borrow books.Unlike most libraries,which store books in buildings,mobile libraries usually keep their books in a mini﹣bus.The back of the mini﹣bus has shelves for the books,and it is big enough for borrowers to step inside and look around.A driver takes the mini﹣bus to a certain place at a certain time,so people know when to expect it.They can then return their books and borrow some more.All Aboard the LibraryA schoo l in London didn't have space for a library inside the building.However,everybody agreed that it was still important to have a school library.So the head of the school,Graham

like mobile libraries.B.Public library services in the UK are free.C.People living far away can't use libraries.D.Many famous British writers lived in Manchester.41.People can't see you when you're speaking on the phone,but they can hear you.So,the way you speak is especially important.In fact,researchers have calculated that 80% of communication over the phone is through your tone of voice; and only 20% is from the words you use.Here are our top tips on how to speak over the phone.1.Facial ExpressionsYour facial expression can influence your voice.For example,if you smile,your voice will sound warm and friendly,just the opposite,if you have an angry look on your face,it can make you sound unpleasant.2.VolumeIf you speak too loudly,you could sound angry.And if you speak too softly,it'll be difficult to hear you.So,speak loudly enough to be heard clearly,but not so loud that you're shouting.3.PaceThe pace of your voice is how quickly you speak.And this can show how you feel.For example,an angry person might speak faster than normal.Or a downhearted person might speak very slowly.Try speaking a little more slowly than normal.This will make you sound confident,and it'll make it easier for the other person to understand you.4.GesturesGesturing can influence the tone of your voice.When you gesture,you bring more air into the lungs,which can make your voice sound warmer.Gestures are also useful to help you stress the right words or even find the words you need.The best thing about gesturing during a phone call is that no one can see what you're doing,so you can gesture as wildly as you like!5.MovementIf you're feeling nervous,stand up and move around.It will reduce the nervousness in your body and help your voice to sound more confident.6.Pauses (停顿)Using pauses every now and then can help you to slow down.This will make you sound more confident and in control.Also,if you pause after giving some new information,it'll give the other person time to understand it.At the same time,listen to how the other person uses pauses.They could tell you something about the speaker's feeling.For example,when a speaker is really angry,he might use pauses and says,"I…am…so…angry…"41.How much of telephone communication is from the words you use?A.20%.B.40%.C.60%.D.80%.42.What can people do to reduce their nervousness on the phone?A.Gesture wildly.B.Move around.C.Raise their voices.D.Make facial expressions.43.How can pauses help people talk on the phone?A.The speaker can show he is friendly.B.The speaker can tell more information.C.The listener will feel confident and in control.D.The listener will have time to understand the words.44.What is the passage mainly about?A.How to control the speed of your speech.B.Different good ways of talking on the phone.C.Reasons of making gestures while talking.D.How to improve communication among friends.45.What is the writer's opinion about telephone talk?A.Your voice on the phone will show what you're feeling.B.Using too many pauses while talking will annoy others.C.Speaking loudly makes it easier for others to understand you.D.The words you use are more important than the way you speak.第二节阅读填空阅读短文及文后A~E选项,选出可以填入46~50各题空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.46.In the middle of my home country there are very large places.They are hot and dry land called deserts.(46) Families live a long way from

Only on the afternoon of December 23 was the list of men who would have the three-day holiday posted. I was one of the lucky soldiers. It was Christmas Eve when I arrived home, and a little snow had fallen. Mother opened the front door. I could see beyond her, into the corner of the living room where the tree had always stood, there were lights, all colors, and ornaments (饰品) shining against the green of a pine.“Where did it come from?” I asked.“I asked the Gates boy to cut it,” my mother said. “I wouldn’t have had one just for myself, but when in great need…such a rush! He just brought it in this afternoon.”The pine reached to the proper height, almost to the ceiling, and the Tree Top Crystal Star was in its place. A few green branches reached out a little awkwardly(难看) at the side, I thought, and there was a bit of bare trunk showing in the middle. But the tree filled the room with warm light and the whole house with the pleasant smell of Christmas.“It’s not like the one you used to find,” my mother went on. “Yours were always in good shape. I suppose the Gates boy didn’t know where to look for a better one. But I couldn’t be fussy because he had tried his best.”“Don’t worry,” I told her. “It’s perfect.”It wasn’t, of course, but at the moment I realized something for the first time: all Christmas trees are perfect.26. What did his mother’s Christma s tree look like?27. Which of the following is TRUE according to the story?A. One soldier told the writer he would have a three-day holiday for Christmas.B. When the writer got home, the Gates boy was cutting a Christmas tree.C. His mother would not complain for the Christmas tree which looked awkward.D. All the soldiers were lucky to go home for Christmas during the war.28. From the passage, we can infer that ___________.A. the writer spent his first Christmas during the warB. the writer di dn’t l ike the tree cut by someone elseC. the writer used to cut very beautiful Christmas treeD. his mother didn’t want to have a Christmas tree during wartime29. What does the writer mean by saying “all Christmas trees are perfect”?A. Nothing is as perfect as Christmas.B. Once at home, everything is so nice.C. During the war, trees are hard to find.D. All Christmas trees are the most beautiful.30. Which would be the best title for the passage?A. A Soldier and the Christmas TreeB. How Soldiers Spent ChristmasC. The Perfect Christmas TreeD. Christmas and a Special TreeBIn Silicon Valley, it’s never too early to become an entrepreneur. Just ask 13-year-old David Moore. The eighth-grader has launched a company last October to develop low-cost machines to print Braille(布莱叶盲文). David built a Braille printer with a Lego Mindstorms EV3 kit as a school science fair project last year after he asked his parents a simple question: How do blind people read? “Google it,” they told him. David then did some online research and was shocked to learn that Braille printerscost at least $2,000 — too expensive for most blind readers.“I just thought that price should not be there. I know that there is a simpler way to do this,” said David, who demonstra ted how his printer worked at the kitchen table where he spent many late nights building it. David wants to develop a desktop Braille printer that costs around $350 and weighs just a few pounds, compared with current models that can weigh more than 20 poun ds. “My end goal would probably be having most of the blind people … using my Braille printer,” said David, who lives in the Silicon Valley suburb of Santa Clara, just minutes away from Intel headquarters.After his “Braigo” –a name that combines Braille and Lego –won numerous awards and enthusiastic support from the blind community, David started Braigo Labs last summer with an initial $35,000 investment from his dad. “We as parents started to get involved more, thinking that he’s on to something and thi s new way process has to continue,” said his father, Matthew Moore, an engineer who works for Intel.Intel officials were so impressed with David’s printer that in November they invested an undisclosed sum in his start-up. They believe he’s the youngest entrepreneur to receive venture capital money invested in exchange for a financial stake in the company. “He’s solving a real problem, and he wants to go off and challenge an existing industry,” said Edward Ross, director of Inventor Platforms at Intel. Now the company is using the money to hire professional engineers and advisers to help design and build Braille printers based on David’s ideas. It aims to have a prototype (样机) ready for blind organizations to test this summer and have a Braigo printer on the market later this year.31. Which of the following is NOT the description of Braigo?A. The name “Braigo” comes from Braille and Lego.B. The new type of the printer is supported by the blind.C. It costs less money and weighs just a few pounds.D. It’s lighter than current Brail le printers, but harder to use.32. What can we learn from paragraph 4?A. Intel didn’t announce the amount of money it invested.B. No one else has ever received venture capital from Intel.C. Intel bought David’s ideas t o design and build Braille printers.D. Braigo printers have been on the market and proved a great success.33. Which of the following is the correct order?a. Intel officials invested money in David’s start-up.b. David launched a company.c. David got an initial $35,000 investment from his dad.d. David created a new Braille printer model called Braigo.e. Braigo Labs hired professional engineers and advisers to help design and build Braille printers.A. d c b a eB. d b e a cC. b d c a eD. b d c e a34. Which of the following words can best describe David’s personalities?A. Independent and selfless.B. Trustworthy and active.C. Talented and loyal.D. Creative and enthusiastic.35. The passage is most probably taken from __________.A. a science fictionB. a science magazineC. a business advertisementD. a travel journalCA. Visitors wishing to eat outside the CastleB. Visitors buying gifts in the castle shopsC. Visitors buying water from the courtyardD. Visitors eating outside St George’s Chapel39. Who breaks the rules while visiting the Castle?A.Peter eats an ice cream in the CourtyardB.Tony takes a camera to the Castle.C.Lucy visits St George’s Chapel first when she arrives at the Castle.D.Jane visits the State Apartment with her 8-month-old baby in a pushchair. 40. In the last part, a “working royal palace” refers to one__________.A.still being constructedB.still used by the royal familyC.where the Queen usually worksD. where works of art are on showDTwo friends have an argument that breaks up their friendship forever, even though neither one can remember how the whole thing got started. Such sad events happen over and over in high schools across the country. In fact, according to an official report on youth violence, "In our country today, the greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment, but the terrible reality of violence". Given that this is the case, why aren't students taught to manage conflict as they are taught to solve math problems, drive cars, or stay physically fit?First of all, students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable when they get along with others. A report on violence among middle school and high school students shows that most violent incidents between students begin with a relatively minor insult . For example, a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandwich each lunchtime. Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults, which in turn can lead to violence. The problem isn't in the sandwich, but in the way students deal with the conflict.Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable, they can practice the golden rule of conflict resolution to stay calm. Once the student feels calmer, he or she should choose words that will calm the other person down as well. Rude words, name-calling, and accusation only add fuel to the emotional fir. On the other hand, soft words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes out of control.After both sides have calmed down, they can use another key strategy for conflict resolution — listening. Listening allows the two sides to understand each other. One person should describe his or her side, and the other person should listen without interrupting. Afterward, the listener can ask non-threatening questions to clarify the speaker's position. Then the two people should change roles.Finally, students need to consider what they are hearing. This doesn't mean trying to figure out what's wrong with the other person. It means understanding what the real issue is and what both sides are trying to accomplish. For example, a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things. Students need to ask themselves questions such as these: How did this start? What do I really want? What am I afraid of? As the issue becomes clearer, the conflict often simply becomes smaller. Even if it doesn't, carefulthought helps both sides figure out a mutual solution.There will always be conflict in schools, but that doesn't mean there needs to be violence. After students in Atlanta started a conflict resolution program, according to Educators for Social Responsibility, "64 percent of the teachers reported less physical violence in the classroom. 75 percent of the teachers reported an increase in student cooperation, and 92 percent of the students felt better about themselves". Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends, teachers, parents, bosses, and coworkers. In that way, conflict resolution is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country.41. From Paragraph 2, we can learn that _____________.A. violence is more likely to occur at lunchtimeB. a small conflict can lead to violenceC. students tend to lose their temper easilyD. the eating habit of a student is often the cause of a fight42. What does the underlined word “conflict” probably mean?A. 斗争B. 冲突C. 欺凌D. 辱骂43. Why do students need to ask themselves the questions according to Paragraph 5?A. To find out who to blame.B. To get ready to buy new things.C. To make clear what the real issue is.D. To figure out how to stop the shouting match.44. After the conflict resolution program was started in Atlanta, it was found that ___.A. the teacher-student relationship was greatly improvedB. the students’ sense of responsibility was awokenC. the students could deal with friends and teachers without any difficultyD. there was a decrease in classroom violence45. The writer’s purpose for writing this article is to ___________.A. call for people’s attention to school violenceB. teach students different strategies for school lifeC. advocate that schools should teach students how to deal with conflictD. inform teachers of the latest studies on school violence第二节阅读填空(共5小题,每题1分,共5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Yet I did not know the American society until I was injured in a car accident because after the accident I had to see a doctor and go to court.After the accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and decided to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury, I’d have to have a good lawyer. Now that he had helped me to find a good doctor, it was onlyfair that I should pay him.But every time I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time. The final examination report only contained ten lines, and it cost me $215.My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to fire him.

To recycle is to take rubbish and make it into something new. Recycling is good for our planet because it makes junk into something that we can use again. Recycling also helps to clean up the litter that makes our streets look dirty.All kinds of things can be recycled. The most common materials like glass, plastic, paper, metals, cloth are all recyclable. Sometimes these products are broken down to make the same kinds of products(产品). An example of this type of recycling is using paper to make more paper. Garbage can also be broken down to make completely new items as well!Some items, like glass, can be recycled forever! We can use glass items, then break them down and use them again and again. Aluminum(铝) cans are one of the most successful recycled metals. They can be recycled again and again and nearly 60% of all cans have been recycled.The average family of four can produce nearly 2,000 pounds of garbage each year. As time goes on, we have fewer places to put all of this garbage in. Recycling is one way to limit(限制)the amount of garbage we need to put into the land.The next time you toss a can or bottle into the garbage can, look to see if there is a recycling triangle on the label. It is the international sign for recycling. It means that the item you are going to throw in the dustbin could be recycled.第 - 3 - 页( ) 36. To recycle is to ______.A.

We did everything together: piano lessons, movies, swimming, and horseback riding.When I was 13, my family moved away. Linda and I kept in touch through letters, and we saw each other on special time—like my wedding and Linda’s. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent came back, stamped “Address Unknown.” I had no idea how to find Linda. Over the ye ars, I missed Linda very much. I wanted to share happiness of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.One day I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked very much like Linda and whose last name was Wagman —Linda’s married name. “There must be thousands of Wagmans,” I thought, but J still wrote to her.She called as soon as s he got my letter. “Mrs. Tobin!” she said excitedly, “Linda Evans Wagman is my mother.” Minutes later I heard a voice that I knew very much, even after 40 years, laughed and cried and caught up on each other’s lives. Now the empty place in my heart is fill ed. And there’s one thing that Linda and I know for sure: We won’t lose each other again!( ) 41.
