If you could have one superpower, what would it be?
Dreaming about whether you would want to read minds, see through walls, or have superhuman strength may sound silly, but it actually gets to the heart of what really matters in your life.
Every day in our work, we are inspired by the people we meet doing extraordinary things to improve the world.
They have a different kind of superpower that all of us possess: the power to make a difference in the lives of others.
We’re not saying that everyone needs to contribute their lives to the poor. Your lives are busy enough doing homework, playing sports, making friends, seeking after your dreams. But we do think that you can live a more powerful life when you devote some of your time and energy to something much larger than yourself. Find an issue you are interested in and learn more. Volunteer or, if you can, contribute a little money to a cause. Whatever you do, don’t be a bystander. Get involved. You may have the opportunity to make your biggest difference when you’re older. But why not start now?
Our own experience working together on health, development, and energy the last twenty years has been one of the most rewarding parts of our lives. It has changed who we are and continues to fuel our optimism about how much the lives of the poorest people will improve in the years ahead.

Five years ago, when I taught art at a school in Seattle, I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students. I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said:＂Make something out of the Tinkertoys. You have 45 minutes today - and 45minutes each day for the rest of the week.＂
A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see the rest of the class would do. Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.
Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home.
I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students.
Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare, ＂But I’m just not creative.＂
＂Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?＂
＂Oh, sure.＂
＂So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.＂ The student would tell something wildly imaginative. Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. ＂That’s pretty creative. Who does that for you?＂
＂Nobody. I do it.＂
＂Really-at night, whe n you’re asleep?＂
＂Sure.＂
＂Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay?＂
8. The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to ________?
A. know more about the students.
B. make the lessons more exciting.
C. raise the students’ interest in art.
D. teach the students about toy design.
9. What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A. He liked to help his teacher.
B. He preferred to study alone.
C. He was active in class.
D. He was imaginative.
10. What does the underlined word ＂downside＂ in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Mistake.
B. Drawback.
C. Difficulty.
D. Burden.
11. Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams?
A. To help them to see their creativity.
B. To find out about their sleeping habits.
C. To help them to improve their memory.
D. To find out about their ways of thinking.
D
The American literature is from the Romanticism to the Realism.
The American Romanticism began from the end of 18th century to the outbreak of the Civil War, which is also called the American Renaissance. The period is as well as the time of American Westward Expansion. During the period, there were lots of workforces crowding to the cities, which promoted the industry. The people found that they need their-own literature to record their experiences. So the Romanticism flourished(繁荣).
The Romanticism in American literature focuses on imagination and emotional factors. The American writers paid more attentions to the free expression of feelings and the characters’ inner world. During the romantic period, there were many writers: Philip Freneau, William Cullen Bryant and so on.
The Realism in American literature was from 1865 to 1914, and it takes on the American spirit, especially in American stories. The Realism against the Romanticism, advocates the people to come down to the earth and get rid of daydreams.
During the 50 years from the Civil War to the WWI, the America had experienced a great change on many aspects, such as the politics, economy, culture and religion. It had changed the nature and the idea of the American society. The writers of new age didn’t agree with the Romanticism of the old age. They were interested in real life and wanted to explain everything relating to the real life, which is to claim the objective reality, to get rid of idealism and Romanticism.
There were 3 main writers at that time: William Peanoweils, Henry James and Mark Twain. Their writings represented the American native customs with their deep rural styles, which uncovered the people’s inner life.
12. What does the passage talk about?
A. The American Romanticism.
B. The History of America.
C. The Civil War of America.
D. The American literature.
13. What does “it” in para4 refers to?
A. The Realism in American literature.
B. The American literature.
C. The period from 1865-1914.
D. The American spirit.
14. The representatives of Realism are the following except__________.
A. William Cullen Bryant
B. William Peanoweils
C. Henry James
D. Mark Twain
15. From the text, we can learn that ________.
A. The two styles of American literature have the same theme.
B. The Romanticism focuses more on peoples’ inner feelings.
C. The Realism encourages people to daydream.
D. The Realism flourished earlier than the Romanticism.

Five secrets to living a sunshine life
Don’t avoid or ignore negativity.
In order to conquer and overcome the negativity, it must be acknowledged. You are in control of your environment and if these negative situations keep making an appearance, it’s up to you to handle them.
Take care of yourself and your needs.
In order to live a powerful and meaningful life, you must love yourself. 16 And this will be reflected in your thoughts and emotional state of mind. Love yourself fully in order to love others fully.
17
Determine what is worth your time and effort and what is not. If situations are bad and beyond repair, it’s time to let go. Are there relationships or friendships that remain damaged but you know are worth the time? 18 Do what you can to find love in situations where it may have been absent in the past.
Give.zx*x&k
Give our time, energy, love and sometimes money to others. 19 So if you can, don’t hesitate to do it.
Focus on things that make us smile, laugh and feel good.
This one is pretty simple. 20 That is, do more of what makes you happy! I truly believe happiness may not come as easily as we wish. In order to go through work and boring responsibilities, we have to actively pursue and engage in beautiful acts of love and kindness. So let’s have a try.
A. Just do MORE of it.
B. Fix them and find peace.
C. Always put yourself first.
D. Mend what’s broken or get rid of it.
E. Determine what is important to you.
F. Mind your actions and how you live each day.

第二节 (共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分)
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入 1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

The moment Jane, just nine months old, saw another baby fall, tears came into her own eyes and she crawled (爬) off to her mother 41 (comfort) as though it was she who had been hurt. And 15-month-old Michael went to get his own teddy bear for his crying friend.
42 of the above acts of sympathy and caring were observed by scientists. They have found that babies feel sympathy even before they 43 (full) realize that they exist apart from other people. Even 44 (month) after birth, babies react to a pain in others as if it 45 (be) their own, crying when they see another child’s tears. 46 about one year old, they start to realize the pain is not their own but someone else’s. In a study, for example, a one-year-old brought his own mother over to comfort a crying friend, 47 (ignore) the friend’s mother, 48 was also in the room. This confusion is seen too when one-year-old
babies imitate (模仿) the pain of someone else, possibly to 49 (well) understand how they are feeling. For example, if another baby hurts her fingers, a one-year-old might put her fingers in her mouth to see if she hurts, too. On seeing his mother cry, one baby wiped his own eyes, 50 there were no tears in his eyes.

22. B presented意义是“传授”，he presented是修饰ideas的定语从句，意思是“他所传授的理论”。

23. A 文中说他的学习成绩总是得A，然而这次考试，他得的是C­plus，所以他感到震惊，应选
shocked。

24. C for表示原因。

thorough意思是“完全的，深入的”。

31. C 上文提到他加倍努力，这里意思是“努力也没有用”。

Dear Mr. Li Xiang,
I’m glad to hear that you will help those who lack money in going to college. I’m writing to apply for it.
My name is Li Hua, a senior three student of Xinhua Middle School. I have much financial difficulty in continuing my college education, but I’m eager to go on with my further study.
In my family my father is the only breadwinner while my mother was laid off two years ago. My grandmother has been suffering a lung illness for more than five years. My younger brother is now studying in a junior school. I took part-time jobs during the summer vacation, but what I have earned is far from enough for me to pay the required tuition fees. In order to continue my study, I have to apply for your help.zx&xk.
If my request is accepted, I will make good use of the money and put my heart into study and make myself a useful man to the society. I hope that you will consider my application.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua。
