Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.More recent research has shown that many kinds of amphibians(两栖动物) are declining or have become extinct. Amphibians are animals, such as frogs, that live partly in water and partly on land. And they have been around for over 350 million years. They have 41 three mass extinctions, including the extinction of the dinosaurs. Why are they dying out now?The most serious aspect of amphibian loss, however, goes beyond the amphibians themselves. Scientists are beginning to think about what amphibian 42 means for the planet as a whole. If the earth is becoming unlivable for amphibians, is it also becoming unlivable for other kinds of animals and human beings as well?Scientists now believe that amphibian decline is due to several environmental factors. One of these factors is the 43 of habitat, the natural area where an animal lives. Amphibians are very 44 to changes in their habitat. If they cannot find the right conditions, they will not lay their eggs. These days, as wild areas are covered with houses, roads, farms, or factories, many kinds of amphibians are no longer laying eggs.There are a number of other factors in amphibian decline. Pollution is one of them. In many industrial areas, air pollution has 45 the rain, which then falls on ponds and kills the frogs that live there. In farming areas, the heavy use of 46 on crops has also killed off amphibians. Another factor is that air pollution has led to 47 levels of ultraviolet （UV）light. This endangers amphibians, which seem to be 48 sensitive to UV light.All these reasons for the disappearance of amphibians are also good reasons for more general 49 . These factors affect human beings, too.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.We must face the fact that there are many aspects of the information age. All information makes us anxious. Over some of these, we have little or no control. On the other hand, there are steps we can take to eliminate much of 50 . We might say, then, that survival in the information age is a challenging yet 51 task.To some extent, we are all receivers and givers of information. Our brain, however, receives and processes information in different ways. One way involves the amazing capacity of the brain to process information subconsciously.Another way involves 52 processing of information such as during conversation. We have a great deal of control over this type of information processing --- both as givers and receivers. If we indulge (任凭) ourselves talking about tiny things or even harmful information, valuable time and 53 can be wasted. Meanwhile this can make us and others anxious. You may lose opportunities to absorb and distribute information that is truly useful for 54 in this troubled world.Information gathered by reading is processed consciously and 55 takes longest. The written word is still the most powerful way of 56 imagination and conveying information, ideas, and concept.How can we 57 so much information from various sources, such as reading material, TV program, computer games, and other 58 activities? The answer is screening.

During the past 50 years, the rate of divorce in the United States has exploded: almost 50％of marriages end in divorce now, and the evidence suggests it is going to get worse, if this trend continues. It will lead to the breakup of the family, according to a spokesperson for the National Family Association. Some futurists predict that in 100 years, the average American will marry at least four times and extramarital affairs(婚外恋) will be even more common than they are now.But what are the reasons for this, and is the picture really so depressing? The answer to the first question is really quite simple: marriage is no longer the necessity it once was. The practice of marriage has been based for years partly on economic need. Women used to be economically dependent on their husbands as they usually didn’t have jobs outside the home. But with the rising number of women in well-paying jobs, this is no longer the case, so they don’t feel that they need to stay in a failing marriage.In answer to the second question, the prospects may not be as pessimistic as they seem. While the rate of divorce has risen, the rate of couples marrying has never actually fallen very much, so marriage is still quite popular. In addition to this, many couples now cohabit(同居) and don’t bother to marry. These couples are effectively married, but they do not appear in either the marriage or divorce statistics. In fact, more than 50％of first marriages survive. The statistics are unreliable because there is a higher number of divorces in second and third marriages than in first marriages.So is marriage really an outdated practice? The fact that most people still get married indicates that it isn’t. And it is also true that married couples have a healthier life than single people: they suffer less from stress and its consequences, such as heart problems, and married men generally consider themselves more satisfied than their single counterparts. Perhaps the key is to find out what makes a successful marriage and apply it to all of our relationships!65. What does ―this is no longer the case‖ in paragraph two mean?A. It is not necessary to get married any more.B. Women do not need a husband any longer.C. Women are not economically dependent any more.D. Many wives do well-paying jobs outside home now.66. Why may the prospects of marriage not be as depressing as it appears?A. Many people still like to get married.B. The rate of divorce has actually decreased.C. many couples would rather cohabit than marryD. The statistics of divorce is not quite true。

Before that, most kids were taught what they needed to learn at home.When you learn reading, math, and other subjects taught in school from your parents or private teachers who come to your house, it's called homeschooling. A kid may be the only one, or he or she may be taught with brothers, sisters, or kids from the neighborhood.Parents choose to home school their children for many different reasons. Sometimes a kid is sick and can't go to regular school. But more often, kids are homeschooled because their parents feel they can give their child a better education than the local school can.You might wonder if kids have to go to school. It's true that kids must be educated, but the law allows the kids to be schooled at home. In fact, more than 1.3 million students do it in the USA alone. These kids can learn just as much as they do in regular schools, but their parents are in charge of their education.Homeschool parents must make sure that their kids get the instruction and the experiences they need. The parents also may have to write a report every year to explain to the government who's teaching the kid and which subjects are being taught at home.(24. 1635 25. math 26. sick 27. local 28. 1.3 29. law 30. report ) Part 2II. 31.

I have too much schoolwork to do." When his father heard this. he said, "I promise to give you anything you want if you can finish one year's work." Tom thought for a moment and agreed.On the first Saturday, the boy got up early and worked hard until evening, just like any other farmer. Time passed quickly. Tom's crops grew well. On the last day of the year, the father called his son to him, "I'm happy to see that you have worked very hard this year," said the father. "Now, tell me what you want.”The boy smiled and showed his father a big piece of bread. He made it from the wheat he worked so hard to grow. "I've already got the best thing. No pain, no gain.

Listen to the passage and complete the following sentences 4These days, most people in Britain and the US do not dress formally. But sometimes it is important to wear the right things.Many British people don't think about clothes very much. They just like to be comfortable. When they go out to enjoy themselves, they can wear almost anything. At theatres, cinemas, and concerts you can put on what you like from beautiful suits and dresses to jeans and sweaters. Anything goes, as long as you look clean and tidy.But in Britain, as Well as in the US, men in offices usually wear suits and ties, and women wear dresses or skirts(not trousers). Doctors, lawyers, and business people wear formal clothes. And in some hotels and restaurants men have to wear ties and women wear tidy dresses.In many ways, Americans are less formal than British people, but they are careful with their clothes. At home, or on holidays, most Americans wear informal or sports clothes. But when they go out in the evening, they like to look nice. In hotels and restaurants, men have to wear jackets and ties, and women wear pretty clothes.It is difficult to say exactly what people wear in Britain and the US, because everyone is different. If you are not sure what to wear, watch what other people do and then dress the same. You will feel more comfortable if you don't look too different from everyone else.(24. right 25. comfortable 26. themselves 27. concerts 28. Doctors 29. less 30. Watch)Part.2II.

Listen to the passage and tell whether the following statements are true or falseThe story of Harry Potter happened in an ancient castle, so many teenagers dream about living in an ancient castle. These dreams may include beautiful silk dresses, delicious food, servants and of course, magic. However, real life in an English castle was not easy. With thick stonewalls and high towers, castles were noisy places with an unpleasant smell. Horses, cows, chickens and sheep walked free. Soldiers practiced sword fights every day. And children of all ages played around them. Castles did not have central heating; the only heat came from the fireplace. Even in summer the castle was cool. People living in the castle had to use blankets to keep warm while at work.Life during the Middle Ages began at sunrise. Servants lit the fire, swept the floor and cooked the morning meal. After dinner, everyone continued his or her work. the owners of the castle sometimes took his guests hunting or shooting. His wife spent much of the day watching the servants work, as well as cooks working in the kitchen. Supper was simple and eaten late, just before bedtime.You may find some old magic books in a castle as Harry Potter once did. Read them before you go to bed, because when you fall asleep , the magic of castle life may appear before your eyes.(17. T 18. F 19. F 20. T 21. F 22. F 23. T)D.

Listen to the passage and tell whether the following statements are true or falseAn old man walked slowly with a stick into the restaurant.

Then she put his stick beside the table."Thank you, miss," he said, kindly."You' re welcome, sir," she said.After he had finished his breakfast, the waitress brought him the change from his bill.

It was really different from my school in China. Girls wore grey skirts and white shirts, boys wore grey trousers, and everyone wore the school tie. Some of Sam's lessons Were a bit strange for me. We were reading Shakespeare in the English lesson, and there were various old-fashioned words like "thou" and "thee" to mean "you". In history lessons, we studied 20th Century China. It was strange hearing English people trying to say all our Chinese names! Classes were also a lot more relaxing and active than in China. Male teachers were called "sir" and female teachers "miss" out of respect, but everyone shouted out and waved their hands in lessons. It was more like a debate than a class. A bell rang at the end of each lesson and everyone jumped up to go to the next class. At break we bought "potato crisps" and "cakes" in the dining room. Lunch was later than in China-at one o' clock. We had big plates of pies wi.th peas and carrots. For dessert there was hot sweet rice, called rice pudding, with jam in it. It was good that I'd had a huge lunch because at Sam's school, Monday afternoons are taken up with sports.Part 1I. A. 1. D 2. E 3. B 4. G 5. A 6. CB. 7. A 8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D 12. B 13. D 14. C 15.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.It‘s hardly surprising that weather is a favorite t opic for so many people around the world. It50 where we choose to live, what we wear, our moods, and perhaps even our national features.A sunny day can lessen the deepest 51 , while very bad weather can destroy homes and threaten lives.The human race has always tried to 52 the weather, especially in areas of the world where there are many changes. Two popular traditional ways of predicting weather use pine cones(松果) and seaweed(海草). When the air has a high level of humidity(湿度), there is a higher chance of rain. When the humidity is low, there is more chance of 53 weather. Pine cones and seaweed feels dry when the humidity is low, 54 high humidity has the opposite effect.Today‘s methods of prediction increasingly depend on 55 . Satellites, balloons, ships, aircraft and weather centers with 56 equipments send data to computers. The data is then 57 , and the weather is predicted. However, 58 this system can not predict weather for longer than about a week.A recent study by an Australian scientist suggests that certain people may have a special59 for predicting weather. However, it is 60 that these peoplecould use their talent in another way, since the same group had a lot of success in predicting changes in another system—the stock market.It 61 that a study of weather may also enable scientists to predict the sudden 62 of a disease. An Ebola epidemic (a kind of disease) in Uganda in the year 2000 came after the same rare 63 conditions that had been present before a sudden spread of the disease 6 years earlier. Efforts to 64 the spread of air-borne diseases such as foot and mouth are also strongly dependent on favorable wind conditions.50. A. shows B. affects C. predicts D. introduces51.

As children, a period of deep uncertainty and sensitivity, 50 and family are the top needs although we may not think of them in those terms. As teenagers, we are 51 the waters of adult life, preparing ourselves for the exciting unknown and as young adults we search for a52 . The drive to fulfil each stage is so strong that sometimes we have to hold the breath to53 .At each stage, although everyone may 54 in dreams, we will all try to take hold of the means to achieve our particular dreams. Some will be driven with almost tunnel vision,others take a(n) 55 attitude to getting there. Anyway, without dreams it is hard to direct life. If you are fortunate enough to achieve your current dreams, you can move forward for 56 desires and prepare yourself for a new conquest.For each period of life the needs are decided by that stage, and as we grow older, whether we like it or not, we gain 57 , which, on the basis of former facts and information, permits us to see a broader view if we are wise enough to take on board what is there. As we mature, the sharpness of the 58 of youth, the black and white approach to life, will be tempered by what is possible, kind, just and fair. Ageing helps us to grow if we allow it. So often we 59 that process, holding on tightly to rooted beliefs which do not do us any favour, yet our needs change and in result we will 60 be different.Physically, even when we stay fit and able, the body cannot deliver in quite the same way as youth. This comes as a(n) 61 to most of us who start life in the belief that we are unbeatable and will live forever. Again, Coming to terms with this fact helps us to 62 anxiety, and finally realize the unexpected benefits which come along with 63 face and slowed body. What was important when we were young can be seen now in a new light, and a different list of importance emerges. In the end, extreme age can be as demanding and sensitive as babyhood, so while one's need changes through life, it seems to come 64 .50. A. finance B. security C. marriage D. education51.

The report Concludes that most people are healthier, live longer, are more 55 , — and that even in countries with severe economic problems, people's health and education have generally56 . Although sub-Saharan African countries are at the bottom of the pile 57 human development, some of them have made significant progress since 1990. The report is 58 , however, of the fact that economic inequality has increased significantly in the last twenty years, both within and between countries.The greatest threat to HDI in the future, according to the report, is climate change. The way to increase average income in a country is through economic growth, which means increased production and 59 . However, if this 60 to greater emissions (排放) of greenhouse gases, as has always been the case in the past, global warming will probably go faster, causing severe environmental problems in some parts of the world that will 61 the livelihoods of huge numbers of people.

However, nearly all require some __(50)__ in one‘s career in order to attend school full time.

Distance learning is an educational method, which allows the students the __(55)__ to study at his or her own pace to achieve the __(56)__ goals, which are so necessary in today‘s world. The time required to study may be set aside at the student‘s convenience with due __(57)__ to all life‘s other requirements. Besides, the student may __(58)__ in distance learning courses from virtually any place in the world, while continuing to pursue their chosen career.

This precludes（排除）the requirement for a student to travel away from home to take a test. Another characteristic of a good distance-learning program is the __(61)__ ofthe distance-learning course with the same subject materials as those students taking the course on the home campus. The resultant diploma or degree should also be the same whether distance learning or on-campus study is employed.In the final analysis, a good distance learning program has a place not only for the __(62)__ students but also the corporation or business that wants to work in partnership with their employees for the educational benefit, professional development, and business growth of the organization. __(63)__ distance learning programs for their employees gives the business the advantage of retaining（保留）career-minded people while __(64)__to their personal and professional growth through education.50.

On the other hand, there are steps we can take to eliminate much of 50 . We might say, then, that survival in the information age is a challenging yet 51 task.To some extent, we are all receivers and givers of information. Our brain, however, receives and processes information in different ways. One way involves the amazing capacity of the brain to process information subconsciously.Another way involves 52 processing of information such as during conversation. We have a great deal of control over this type of information processing --- both as givers and receivers. If we indulge (任凭) ourselves talking about tiny things or even harmful information, valuable time and 53 can be wasted. Meanwhile this can make us and others anxious. You may lose opportunities to absorb and distribute information that is truly useful for 54 in this troubled world.Information gathered by reading is processed consciously and 55 takes longest. Thewritten word is still the most powerful way of 56 imagination and conveying information, ideas, and concept.How can we 57 so much information from various sources, such as reading material, TV program, computer games, and other 58 activities? The answer is screening. Screening, sorting out or prioritizing what we need to hear, see, say or read may 59 much information anxiety.To cut through confusing information, 60 this basic rule: Keep it simple!

The difference is important 50 industry and company size. Companies fearful of losing their competitive advantage spend much time and money looking for ways to pick up the 51 .In our study of 343 businesses, the companies that chose to go, go, go to try to gain an edge ended with lower sales and operating income than those that 52 at key moments to make sure they were on the right 53 .

They thought 56 about what “slower” and “faster” mean. Firms sometimes 57 to understand the difference between operation speed (moving quickly) and strategic speed (reducing the time it takes to deliver value). Simply increasing the speed of production, for example, may be one way to try to reduce the speed difference. But that oftenleads to reduced value over time, in the form of lower-quality products and services.In our study, higher performing companies with strategic speed always made changes when it is 58 . They became more 59 to idea and discussion. They encouraged new ways of thinking. And they allowed time to look and learn. 60 , performance suffered at firms that moved fast all the time, paid too much attention to impro ving 61 , stuck to tested methods, didn’t develop team spirit among their employees, and had little time thinking about62 .Strategic speed 63 a kind of leadership.

It is therefore __51__ at the intermediate and advanced stages of language acquisition to learn a large vocabulary in a short period of time. There is not enough time to __52__ the natural (largely incidental) L1 (the first language) word acquisition process. Incidental acquisition of the words is only possible up to a point, __53__, on account of their low frequency, they do not __54__ often enough in the L2 learning material.Acquisition of new words from authentic L2 reading texts by means of strategies such as contextual deduction(演绎) is also not a __55__ for a number of reasons. There appears to be no __56__to intentional learning of a great many new words in a relatively short period of time. The words to be learned may be __57__ in isolation or in context. Presentation in bilingual（双语的）word lists seems an __58__ shortcut because it takes less time than contextual presentation and yields excellent short term results. Long term memory, __59__, is often disappointing so contextual presentation seems advisable.Any suggestions on how to use this in educational contextsshould be based on a systematic__60__ of the two most important aspects of the L2 word learning problem, this is to say, selecting the relevant vocabulary (which and how many words) and creating the best conditions for the acquisition process. This article sets out to __61__a computer assisted word acquisition programme (CA VOCA) which tries to do exactly this: the programme operationalises current theoretical thinking about word acquisition, and its __62__ are based on a systematic list of the vocabulary relevant for the target group. To __63__its frequency, the programme was __64__ in a number of experimental settings with a paired associated method of learning new words.

My life became different, as I changed from an acceptably attractive woman to an object of pity and __50__.Too busy __51__ physical pain and obvious mobility limitation, I was not aware of this change at first. I was determined to __52__, feeling good about the progress I had made, as I moved forward.__53__, as I made my first excursion outside the hospital, society had already assigned me a new status. Happy to be free of my restriction in the hospital, I rolled through the shopping mall –a __54__ survivor, feeling like a war hero. Unfortunately, I had a rude __55__ as I discovered that others did not view me in the way I had come to view myself.All eyes were upon me, yet no one dared to make eye contact. Their efforts to __56__ my eyes forced me to realize they saw only my missing legs. Mothers __57__ held their children closer as I passed. Elderly women patted me on the head saying, ―God Bless You!‖ with __58__ in their eyes.While I sat thinking about what had happened, a small girl came up to me. She stared with unembarrassed __59__ at the empty pants. Finding nothing there, she looked up at me with a puzzled look, she innocently asked, ―Lady, where did your legs go?‖I explained that my legs had been sick. Since my legs hadn‘t been strong and healthy like hers, the doctors had to __60__ them. Leaning her head upwards, she asked, ―Did they go to ?Leg Heaven‘?‖That incident made me think about how __61__ children and adults react to the unknown. To a child, an odd appearance is an interesting curiosity and a __62__ learning experience whileadults often view the same thing with fear and horror. I began to realize that, I, too had been __63__ of the same inappropriate reactions before I knew what life was like for an amputee.To fulfill the wholeness of my mind and spirit, I now smile warmly, make eye contact, and speak in a confident manner.

The first thing the lion thinks about is, “I must be able to catch the s__________ antelope, or I will die of hunger.”So, almost at the same time, the antelope and the lion get up and start running toward the rising sun.This is life: full of chances and challenge (挑战). Whether you are an antelope or a lion,you must go a_________ when the sun rises. For students, it is just the same. If we do not study hard, sooner or later, we will fall b_________ the other students. At first, I did not know what the word “exam” meant. Later I knew an exam was a kind of competition.

In one’s life, there must be competitions, so people can improve.Each time I saw children playing games and heard their laughter, I wished I were that age again. However, I remembered my parents’ words: “You must work very hard in order to have a good f__________.” So I picked up my pen and began to study hard again.I was still not sure what competition really meant. One day, I was taking part in an English-speaking competition. When I went to the stage, I saw other students looking at me kindly.I s__________ knew what competition was.

After a few minutes, his mother said, “You know, Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, finally you have to clean it up."

They wanted to learn the a___________ languages such as Greek and Latin- languages that were used in the old times, and study mathematics, science, and so on. Many universities were set up during the 16th century.University education was a privilege (特权) of the rich. Girls were not allowed to attend and poor people could not a____________ to go. A member of a wealthy family could attend university at the age of ten. He might study in different universities and since the teaching was all d__________ in Latin, it didn’t matter which country he studied in. It was not unusual for a young boy study one year in Italy and another in France without speaking either French or Italian.It was p_________ in the 16th century to complete university without learning how to read or write. Since books were handwritten, there was not enough to give o___________ to each student. Often, only the teacher had a book. He would read to the students who would memorize what he said. Tests were oral, not written, In fact, many students finished school without ever writing a word.For the not so wealthy, grammar schools were built in towns. They learned basic grammar and mathematics, and took part in Bible study, At home, girls learned washing, cooking, dancing, and the basics of taking care of a household. Poor children r___________ attended school.The Renaissance was a time when learners did not simply accept what they were old. They did scientific experiments themselves to search for a__________ to the mysteries(神秘) of the space.

According to the Daily Mail, the volcano in the Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, US, has been rising at a record rate since 2004. Its magma (岩浆) surface has gone u 87 3 inches (7.6 centimeters) per year over the last three years alone. This rise is one of the main s 88 that a volcano is about to erupt. However, scientists are not certain when the eruption will happen or what it will cause. Unlike what happens in the movie 2012, a volcano eruption would not destroy the whole world, b 89 it could cause huge damage to people living nearby. For example, the 2010 eruption of the Iceland Volcano caused more than 800 people to 1 90 their homes and many airports in European countries to shut down for a few days.There are more than 1,500 active volcanoes in the world. A volcano is c 91 active if it has erupted at least once during the last 10, 000 years. In ancient times, more than 80 percent of the earth's surface was volcanic. Volcanic eruptions formed the sea floor and some mountains over many years. Gas from volcanoes formed the earth's atmosphere (大气) .Volcanoes come from very hot liquid rock, that is magma, inside the earth. When magma comes upward and breaks through the earth's surface, it forms volcanoes.The rising magma heats water, which leads to explosions of steam. This pushes rocks and ash high into the sky.

Three浦东新区初三英语第二学期学习能力诊断试卷According to experts, the word Hutong originated from Mongolian language meaning "Well" (井). In ancient times, people tended to gather and live around wells. So the original meaning of Hutong should be "a place where people gather and live." But Hutong first a___86___ in Beijing during the Yuan Dynasty. The old city was completely destroyed during the war. First, they had to find a center, and then built a r___87___ square city. At that time, there was a clear definition for “Avenue, Street and Hutong”. A 37-metre-wide road was called an avenue, an 18-metre-wide one was called a street, and a 9-metre-wide lane was called a Hutong. Most of today's Hutong were formed during the Ming and Qing Dynasties that followed. Nobody knows e___88__ how many Hutongs there are in nowadays Beijing. But if we connected all the Hutongs together, their total l___89___ would even be longer than the famous Great wall, which is about 4000 miles.Today you can find v___90___ Hutongs with different shapes, lengths or directions. The shortest one is only 40 centimeters wide. And some Hutongs have more than 20 turns.As we walk t___91___ the Hutongs, you may find most of them look almost the same withgray-colored walls and bricks. Actually inside those walls are the courtyard houses, where people live. In Chinese we call them "Siheyuan". "Si" literally means four, "he" means to surround, and "yuan" refers to the courtyard. So a rectangular wall enclosing four houses, one built on each side facing into the center, is called a Siheyuan. When they were first built, usually one Siheyuan was o___92___ by only one family, but nowadays, with the growth of the population, most Siheyuans are shared by 4 to 10 families.86. appeared 87. regular 88. exactly 89. length 90. various 91. through/toward( s) /to 92. owned普陀区初三英语第二学期学习能力诊断试卷Wendy Martin is an ordinary university student who used to love surfing the Internet and chatting (聊天) with friends online.

Soon they exchanged e-mail addresses and were communicating online every day.Wendy e 88 talking to her new friend. They both liked the same music, the same clothes and the same films, but they also had the same worries about studying and the future. Anne had e-mailed her a picture of herself—— she even looked s 89 to Wendy. So, when Anne asked Wendy for her address and phone number, Wendy thought her new friend was a person she could trust. It was only when Wendy got a letter from the bank that she realized something was wrong. Anne was not who she said she was. She was not a university student, she was not young and she was not even a woman. 'Anne' was really a 45-year-old man called Tim Histanon. He p 90 to like the same things as Wendy. He had used Wendy's personal information to spend all the money in her bank account.This situation is actually quite common, and affects (影响) thousands of people every year.

From the first day your pronunciation will be excellent. Just send ..." and so on? Of course, it n 86 happens quite like that. The only language that is easy to learn is the mother tongue. And think how much practice that gets! Before the Second World War people usually learned a foreign language in order to read the literature of the country. Now speaking the foreign language is w 87 most people want.Every year millions of people start learning one. How do they do it? Some people try at home, with books and tapes; some u 88 radio or television programs; others go to evening classes. If they use the language only two or three times a week, learning it will t 89 a long time, like language learning at school. A few people try to learn a language f 90 by studying forsix or more hours a day. It is clearly easier to learn the language in the country where it is s 9l . However, most people cannot afford this, and for many it is not necessary. They need the language in order to do their work b 92 . For example, scientists and doctors mainly need to be able to read books and reports in the foreign language. Whether the language is learned quickly or slowly, it is hard work.

They believed that itwould be better for everybody if only bicycles were a 86 in the city center.They hoped that this would help to save energy, reduce pollution and providefree transport. The group painted hundreds of bicycles white and placed themin public places around Amsterdam for people to use. Anyone was able to use them for s 87 journeys, whether he was a local or a foreigner. Wherever someone finished a journey, they would l 88 the bicycle there for someone else to use. The problem was that it didn’t work–thieves took all the bicycles within weeks!However, more than forty years later, the “white bicycle” is b 89 in town–this time with a computer chip(芯片) to r 90 its every move! To take a bicycle, you have to put a special card inside. The new “white bicycle” is not white any more but is an unusual design with bright colours.

Here are three examples from the minds of China's young inventors.Foot Controlled MouseThis new kind of mouse is controlled by the feet instead of the hands, to help disabled people when surfing the Internet.The new invention is called a "surf mouse", and looks like a pair of blueslippers. When users press the slippers with their forefeet, they are clickingthe left mouse button; when people press with their heels, they are clicking the right mouse; when they roll their feet over the slippers, they can surf Web pages.Dirty Water FilterThe "pump of life", a filter, can make dirty water drinkable. The pump is over 30 centimeters long. It has an in-pipe at the top and out-pipe at the end. There are two main parts: the drive zone to pump water and the material zone to eliminate harmful things. Rain fish tank water and coalmine water can all be cleaned in the material zone. The invention could be used for many kinds of disaster relief. The inventor of the filter told us that water was delivered by helicopters to Wenchuan in 2008. If the water-purifying equipment had been sent instead, people could have had more water faster after the earthquake.Transformer VehicleThe multi-functional vehicle is named Tranfus. By changing thebreadth (宽度) of tires and the structure of a car, it can become a motorbikeor a luggage carrier. The name Tranfus is a short form of “transforming forus".Traffic jams can make a driver go crazy. The Tranfus can change into a luggage carrier,and users could walk with it. When started, the roof transforms, turning into a motorbike. But its inventor doesn't think Tranfus will be on the market soon as some auto companies like it, but none are willing to invest.（）74.

Later on, when swimming in the sea became popular, many rich and important people, as well as writers, musicians and 82 began to arrive and Brightonbecame a popular seaside holiday town. Prince George (later became King George IV), first came to Brighton in 1783. He liked it so much and used to spend part of the summer there 83 his health.

In ancient times, people-tended to gather and live aroundwells. So the original meaning of Hutong should be a place where people gather andlive. But Hutong first a 86 in Beijing during the Y uan Dynasty .The old city was completely destroyed during the war. So they had to rebuild it.First, they had to find a center, and then built a r 87 square city. At that time, there was a clear definition for "A venue, Street and Hutong". A 37-meter-wide road was called an avenue, an 18-meter-wide one was called a street, and a 9-meter-wide lane was called a Hutong.Most of today's Hutongs were formed during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Nobody knows e 88 how many Hutongs there are in nowadays Beijing. But if we connected all the Hutongs together, their total l 89 would even be longer than the famous Great Wall, which is about 4,000 miles.Today you can find v 90 Hutongs with different shapes, sizes or directions. The shortest one is only 40 centimeters wide. And some Hutongs have more than 20 turns.As we walk t 91 the Hutongs, you may find most of them look almost the same wi th gray-colored-walls and bricks. Actually inside those walls are the courtyard houses, where people live. In Chinese we call them “Siheyuan". "Si" literally means four; "he" means to surround and "yuan" refers to the courtyard. So a rectangular wall enclosing four houses, one built on each side facing intothe center, is called a Siheyuan. When they were first built, usually one Siheyuan was o 92 by only one family. And nowadays, with the growth of the population, most Siheyuans are shared by 4 to 10 families.86. ________________ 87.________________ 88.________________ 89.________________90. ________________ 91.________________ 92.________________D. Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）:（共12分）Boys do best with "as few girls as possible" in English lessons at primary and secondary school, Steven, a research student at Bristol University, told the RoyalEconomic Society's conference. But when it comes to math and science, both boys andgirls at primary schools achieve up to tenth of a grade more when there is a highproportion (比例) of girls in the class, Steven found.Steven studied boys' and girls' test results at the ages of 7, 11, 14 and 16 in 16,000 schools in England between 2002 and 2004 for his Ph.D. He analyzed the test scores to see whether the proportion of girls in a year group make a difference to the results of both genders (性别) in math, science and English.Boys often get to a tenth of a grade worse when they study English with high numbers of girls as opposed to few or no girls, Steven found. The more girls there are in an English class, the worse boys perform. This is particularly the case in primary schools, he discovered.Steven's results show boys should be taught English in single-sex classes. Girls, who outperform boys in English at every stage at school, are unaffected by the number of boys in their English classes. He said, "The results say that boys would benefit at all ages from being taught English with as small a proportion of girls as possible. In math and science, lie results tend to show that both boys and girls benefit from having more girls in the c lassroom. A mix of the genders in both science and math is the best."Steven said boys may do worse in English when there is a high proportion of girls in their class because they realized that the girls are better than them. It could also be that teachers use teaching styles more appropriate to girls when there are more girls than boys in the class. Both genders perform better in math and science at primary school when there are more girls in the class because boys tend to break the class rules.93. Will boys do better in English if there are few girls in their class?94. Which age groups did Steven study boys' and girls' test results?95. What did Steven suggest teaching English to boys at school?96. What is the best classroom teaching style in math and science?97. Why do boys do worse in English when there are more girls in class?98. Do you agree that girls can always do better in study? Why or Why not?IX. Writing (作文): (共20分)99.

With thick stonewalls and high towers, castles were noisy places with an unpleasant smell. Horses, cows, chickens and sheep walked free. Soldiers practiced sword fights every day. And children of all ages played around them. Castles did not have central heating; the only heat came from the fireplace. Even in summer the castle was cool. People living in the castle had to use blankets to keep warm while at work.Life during the Middle Ages began at sunrise. Servants lit the fire, swept the floor and cooked the morning meal. After dinner, everyone continued his or her work. the owners of the castle sometimes took his guests hunting or shooting. His wife spent much of the day watching the servants work, as well as cooks working in the kitchen. Supper was simple and eaten late, just before bedtime.You may find some old magic books in a castle as Harry Potter once did.
