I’at plenty of bunches slowly turning into one dark, weak mass and say, "Tomorrow. Ido it tomorrow."Then I saw a blackbird settle on my outdoor table and fly to pluck (摘)a grape andreturn to the table to eat it. This task was repeated day after day.I don’t know why this took me by surprise. Blackbirds like all the fruits oncethey’re soft enough to eat. Still, I felt delighted and relieved.There are lists upon lists of plants that are good for birds, whether because theyattract insects, or because they are rich in berries(浆果) or nuts. There is a theory thatfruits that are similar in colour to our native types are more desirable to birds, so whitefruit will not be as favoured as red or orange. However, anyone who has growndogwood(梾木) will know that once those yellow leaves drop to expose deep red stemsdecorated with white berries, the birds begin to eat them. They are able to learn newtricks.If you don’t have spac e for bigger-berried trees, make attractive bird feeders inlarge pots that are no longer needed for summer bedding or vegetables. To give smallbirds some protection, tie together strong stems to form loose cages. Into these bringseed heads, using the stems to hold them in place. Sunflower heads, for example, can beput in.

To prevent stems taking up too muchroom.Dits are always on the list As far as children’s museums go, new and exciting exhibto keep kids entertained and intrigued. But how to keep the kids interacting while stilldealing with real life issues and enabling them to step into the footsteps of those with anentirely different view from their own? Enter th e Israeli Children’s Museum in Holon.The museum offers a thoughtful display of rotating(旋转的) exhibits and is home tothree permanent exhibits. The exhibits — Invitation to Silence, Dialogue with Time, andDialogue in the Dark —are unlike most any other experiences you’ll find in any typical children’s museum.Invitation to Silence is an exhibit that enables participants to understand what it islike to live in the world of those who are hearing-impaired. The guides are deaf or hearing-impaired themselves and take participants on a 75-minute active journey, walking them through an experience of alternative communication, where non-spoken languages —"hearing with one’s eyes", sign languages and body languages are the only options.Dialogue with Time is a one-of-a-kind exhibit guided by those 70 years old andolder.

D Moonlight Cinema.BIt's been said that honesty is the best policy.It sounds like th e simplest thing in the world,but being truly honest with others and with yourself can be a r eal challenge.Most of us learned to be dishonest as children.Remember that dishonesty is rooted in fear ,so you must look for and face those fears.By listing areas w here you have a problem,and then working to deal with them,you can battle these ha bits.If you find yourself lying because you fear disapproval fr om someone,for example,perhaps you need to learn how to stop being a people pleaser and be yourself.Most importantly,admit your errors so that you can forgive yourself and use tho se experiences to reinforce your determination to do better.If you feel guilty for having been dishonest in the past,apologize to the person you lied to or find a creative way to m ake things right.If you've lied to a person who plays an impo rtant role in your life (a significant other,relative,or friend),the best (but most difficult) thing to do is to come clean.Think honestly.This may sound silly,but if you don't think honestly,you won't be honest.If you're pushed into a corner and don't know how to respond ,you have the right to remain silent or say "Can we talk about t his another time? "or" I really don't feel comfortable talking ab out this."Don't say "I don't know"Practice being honest on the simple things.Abraham Lincoln became famous for going to great lengths to return a few cen ts that did not belong to him,hence the nickname" Honest Abe".By applying honesty to th e little things,you will get in the habit of being honest in general.5.What's the author's attitude towards becoming honest? A.Optimistic.B.Pessimistic.C.Skeptical.D.Unconce rned.6.What does the underlined word “reinforce” in paragraph 1 mean?A.show B.strengthen C.express D.weak 7.What's the author's main purpose of writing the text? A.To encourage people to be honest.B.To arouse readers 'interest in being famous.C.To call on people to learn from Abraham Lincoln.D.To advice us to say sorry to the person we lied to.8.Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A.Challenge YourselfB.No Need to Lie to OthersC.Honesty is the Best PolicyD.Little Things Can Make a BigDifference.CA great invention by an 18-year-old high school student grew out of a simple problem most tee nagers meet with.“I'm a teenager and I have a cell phone and my cell phone bat tery always dies,so I was really looking for a way to improve energy storage,”Eesha Khare said on Tuesday. “That's how I came across the super capacitor.”The teenager who came from California, and graduated from high school last week,won a $50,000 prize on May 17,2013 at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair fo r creating a device that can store enough energy to charge a cell phone in 20 to 30 seconds.“It charges very quickly and can store a lot of ener gy,” Khare said. “The cool thing is that it's a lot thinner than one strand of hair.”Khare hasn't used her invention to recharge a cell phone yet ,but she used it to power a light-emitting diode (LED) in order to show its capability(容量). If used on cell phones, the supercharger would slide on to the phone's battery to juice it up in a matter of seconds. The t echnology isn't available to consumers yet,and it could be years until it is.At an Intel event in Phoenix,Khare won the Intel Foundation Young Scientist Award,taking second place overall in the world's largest high school science research competition. She beat out more than 1, 600 finalists from 70 countries. She said that she has been approa ched by several companies to continue her research, but she is now focused on attending in autumn.“Right now, just my education,but hopefully we'll see what happens in the future,” she said a bout her plans. “I have a lot of interests,so we'll see what I do in the future.”9. The passage starts with ________.A.what problem most teenagers meet with in lifeB.how Khare helped others with their problemsC.why Khare decided to make the inventionD.how teenagers make use of their cell phones10. According to the passage, Khare ________.A.was most probably born in 1995B.will graduate from high schoolC.will donate much of her prizeD.is the first teenager to win such a big prize11. The super capacitor ________.A.is as thin as a hairB.can produce enough energy soonC.has been popular on the marketD.has not been put in use in daily lifeDClimate change will force exhausted birds migrating to Europe from Africa to travel further, with possibly disastrous consequ ences, according to a study.The annual voyage of some species, which fly north insearch of food and suitable habitats, could increase by as m uch as 400 kilometers (250 miles), the research found. “Marat hon migrations for some birds are set to become even longer,” said Stephen Willis, a professor at Durham University in an d the main architect of the study. “This is bad news for birds li ke the White throat, a common farmland bird. The added dista nce is a considerable threat. As temperatures rise and habitat s change, birds will face their biggest challenge since the Pleistocene era (更新世), which ended 11,000 years ago,” he said in a statement. Some 500 million birds migrate each year from Africa, some weighing as little as nine grams (three-tenths of an ounce). To complete a voyage that can be thousa nds of kilometers long, birds have to fatten themselves up to t wice their normal weight. Some even shrink their internal organs (收缩内脏) to become more fuel efficient, so any additional distance may be dangerous.The study finds that from 2007 to 2010, nine out of 17 species examined are going to face longer migrations, particularly bir ds that cross the . Some birds travel the Sahara and the Medi terranean Sea in a one go, while others have a break in north ern Africa before crossing. Many fly at night, when temperatur es are cooler.A few — such as the Blackcap — have started to adapt by sp ending winters in Britain, but such behavior remains exception al, the study said. The study forecasts that the migration dista nce of the Orphean Warbler will jump from 2,700 kilometers (1,700 miles) to between 3,050 an d 3,350 kilometers (1,900 and 2,100 miles), with even longer i ncreases for the Subalpine and Barred Warblers.12. Whatdoes traveling extra distance mean for some migrating birds?A. Better living conditions.B. Better physical health.C. Stronger ability to fly.D. Bigger threat to life.13. To complete the marathon migrations, some birds have to do the following except ______.A. have a break in the SaharaB. put on more weightC. reduce the size of internal organsD. fly at night to avoid the heat14. What can we infer from the text?A. Birds have to migrate from Africa to Europe in winter.B. Global warming is bad for all birds worldwide.C. Birds that are of small size don’t need to migrate.D. Some birds have to migrate unless they adapt to climate c hange.15. What’s the best title of the text?A. Climate change leads to disastrous consequenceB. The annual voyage of some speciesC. How birds migrate for longer distancesD. Climate change pushes birds to migrate farther第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Yet, I was determined to go ahead.I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E. class, the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn’t do either well. He later informed me that I was “ not athletic ”.The idea that I was “ not athletic ” stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, Irealized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn’t even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces(鞋带) became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!At mile 3, I passed a sign: “ GO FOR IT, RUNNERS ! ”By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.By mile 21, I was starving!As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running.I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签), I can now call myse lf a “ marathon winner ”.4. A month before the marathon, the author ____________.A. was well trainedB. felt scaredC. made up his mind to runD. lost hope5. Why did the author mention the P.E. class in his 7th year?A. To acknowledge the support of his teacher.B. To amuse the readers with a funny story.C. To show he was not talented in sports.D. To share a precious memory.6. How was the author’s first marathon?A. He made it.B. He quit halfway.C. He got the first prize.D. He walked to the end.7. What does the story mainly tell us?A. A man owes his success to his family support.B. A winner is one with a great effort of will.C. Failure is the mother of success.D. One is never too old to learn.CHave you wondered why you have two eyes and why they are set close together on the front of your face? The reasons are simple and important.Your eyes are like two small cameras. A camera catches an image(影像)of an object and records it on film. Similarly, when you look at something, each eye takes in what it sees and sends this image to the back of the eyeball. While your right eye sees an object a little to the right, your left eye sees the same object a bit to the left. Working as a team, the eyes send the images to your brain, then your brain puts them together and you see a single image in the centre.Seeing in stereo means seeing with two eyes working together, which is called stereoscopic(立体的) sight. This allows you to see the world in 3-D. If images are coming from only one eye, however, height and width—can be perceived(感知). So if you see with one eye, you will get a2-D image, as in a photograph.Now consider why your two eyes are on the front of your face. Think of other animals just like you. They are all hunting animals, like lions and tigers. This provides a field of sight about 180 degree wide, which is called binocular(双目并用的) sight. On the other hand, animals that are hunted have eyes on the sides of the head, which provides nearly 360-degree field of sight. However, they don’t have stereoscopic sight. It is difficult for them to judge how far a danger is. With both stereoscopic and binocular sight, humans and hunting animals share the ability to see from side to side and to judge how far it is from other objects. If you think it would be great to have another kind of sight, perhaps with hundreds of tiny eyes like many insects do, think again! Each tiny insect eye sees only a tiny part. Besides, what if you needed glasses? Be glad for the eyesight that you have.8. According to the passage, an eye is like a camera because both_______A. can record images.B. can imagine objects.C. provide wrong images.D. work at the same speed.9. Stereoscopic sight is a result of having _____________.A. a three-hundred-sixty-degree field of sight.B. hundreds of eyes, all seeing tiny parts of an image.C. two eyes close to each other that work together.D. one eye on either side of the head, each seeing a different image.10. Which of the following is true according the passage?A. The function of the camera is complex.B. With stereoscopic sight, humans can see the world in 3-D.C. Humans should realize the importance of eyes.D. Humans and animals have the same sight.11. What can be inferred from the underlined sentences in the last paragraph ?A. Only humans can judge how far it is from other objects.B. It is beneficial for us to wear glasses.C. Humans have better eyesight than animals.D. It is fortunate that humans have stereoscopic sight.DSteven Stein likes to follow garbage trucks. His strange habit makes sense when you consider that he’s an environmental scientist who studies how to reduce litter, including things that fall off garbage trucks as they drive down the road. What is even more interesting is that one of Stein's jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bags.Americans use more than 100 billion thin film(薄膜) plastic bags every year. So many end up in tree branches or along highways that a growing number of cities do not allow them at checkouts(收银台). The bags are prohibited(禁止) in some 90 cities in California, including Los Angeles. Eyeing these headwinds, plastic-bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.Among the bag makers’arguments: many cities with bans still allow shoppers to purchase paper bags, which are easily recycled but require more energy to produce and transport. And whileplastic bags may be ugly to look at, they represent a small percentage of all garbage on the ground todayThe industry has also taken aim at the product that has appeared as its replacement: reusable shopping bags. The stronger a reusable bag is, the longer its life and the more plastic-bag use it cancels out. However, longer-lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make. One study found that a cotton bag must be used at least 131 times to be better for the planet than plastic.Environmentalists don't dispute (质疑) these points. They hope paper bags will be banned someday too and want shoppers to use the same reusable bags for years.12. What has Steven Stein been hired to do?A. Help increase grocery sales.B. Recycle the waste material.C. Argue for the use of plastic bags.D. Stop things falling off trucks.13. What does the word “headwinds”in paragraph 2 refer to?A. Bans on plastic bags.B. Effects of city development.C. Headaches caused by garbage.D. Plastic bags hung in trees.14. What is a disadvantage of reusable bags according to plastic-bag makers?A. They are quite expensive.B. Replacing them can be difficult.C. They are less strong than plastic bags.D. Producing them requires more energy.15. What is the best title for the text?A. Plastic, Paper or NeitherB. Industry, Pollution and EnvironmentC. Recycle or Throw AwayD. Garbage Collection and Waste Control第二节(共5小题:每小题2分,满分10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。

Whether that is good or bad, we can't really say, but for the two of us, going green is not a fad but a lifestyle.On April 22, 2011, we decided to go green every single day for an entire year. This meant doing 365 different green things, and it also meant challenging ourselves to go green beyond easy things. Rather than recycle and reduce our energy, we had to think of 365 different green things to do and this was no easy task.With the idea of going green every single day for a year, Our Green Year started. My wife and I decided to educate people about how they could go green in their lives and hoped we could show people all the green things that could be done to help the environment. We wanted to push the message that every little bit helps.Over the course of Our Green Year, we completely changed our lifestyle. We now shop at organic stores. We consume less meat, choosing green food. We have greatly reduced our buying we don't need. We have given away half of what we owned through websites. Our home is kept clean by vinegar and lemon juice, with no chemical cleaners. We make our own butter, enjoying the smell of home-made fresh bread. In our home office anyone caught doing something ungreen might be punished.Our minds have been changed by Our Green Year. We are grateful for the chance to have been able to go green and educate others. We believe that we do have the power to change things and help our planet.5. What might be the best title for the passage?A. Celebrating Our Green Year.B. Protecting the Planet.C. Keeping Open-MindedD. Going Green.6. It was difficult for the couple to live a green life for the whole year because_____.A. they needed to perform unusual green tasks .B. they didn't know how to educate other peopleC. they were unwilling to reduce their energyD. they were expected to follow the green fad7. What did the couple do over the course of Our Green Year?A. They ignore others' ungreen behavior.B. They tried to get out of their ungreen habits.C. They chose better chemical cleaners.D. They sold their home-made food.8. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. The government will give support to the green people.B. Some people disagree with the couple's green ideas.C. The couple may continue their project in the future.D. Our Green Year is becoming a national campaign.CThe number of accidents involving pedestrians (行人) wearing headphones is on the rise, a report suggests, causing fresh warning from road safety groups in Britain.A US-based study found a total of 116 reports of death or injury to pedestrians wearing headphones between 2004 and 2011, jumping from 16 in 2005 to 47 in 2011.Most victims were men (68%) and under the age of 30 (67%), with around one in ten of all cases (9%) under the age of 18.Some 89% of the cases occurred in urban areas and more than half (55%) of the victims were struck by trains .Eighty-one of the 116 accidents (70%) resulted in the person’s death—even though a warning was sounded in around a third of the cases.The study concluded, “The use of headphone may be a safety risk to pedestrians , especially in environments with moving vehicles. Further research is needed to determine if and how headphone use threatens pedestrian safety.” British road safety groups warned pedestrians to be careful.Floor Lieshout, director of Youth For Road Safety, said, “ This study shows once more the importance of using all of our senses while we are near traffic. It is important that we find an attractive way to make youth learn about the risks of wearing headphones in traffic.”Andrew Howard , who is the head of road safety at the Automobile Association, added that some pedestrians can b e “so immersed in their own little world that they forget the world going on around them”. That can include headphone wearers, Howard said, but also people talking on phones.However, Howard said that more researches needed to be done.Earlier studies have shown that people wearing headphones or talking on phones can suffer “inattentional blindness” which makes them isolated (孤立) from the world around them .Ian Harvey, at the charity Civic V oice, said that “ to defeat isolation and to help build a civic(文明的) society, people need to interactwith each other .He said, “ A basis for any civilized society is communication—Surfing the web, listening to MP3s, reading blogs or sending e-mail is not interacting with a person; it’s interacting with a machine.“If pe ople feel socially isolated, they need to have more face-to-face interactions with other human beings and in time, will begin to feel happier and more connected to the world and place they live in.”9. We can learn from the Us-bases study that _________ .A. most accidents were caused by carsB. most victims died in the accidentsC. most accidents happened in the countrysideD. most victims were women10.What does the underlined word immersed in paragraph7 mean ?A. cautiousB. relevantC. awareD. absorbed11. Howard will probably agree that ____________ .A. it is safe if you wear headphones in a proper wayB. it is dangerous to talk on phones while walkingC. most people wear headphones because of lonelinessD. people wearing headphones are more likely to go blind12.What Ian Harvey said shows the importance of ___________ .A. beating isolationB. new technologiesC. building a civilized societyD. communication between peopleDConventional wisdom says that hardship can make us old before our time. In fact, a new study suggests that violence not only leaves long-term scars on children’s bodies, but also changes their DNA, causing changes that are equal to seven to ten years of premature aging.Scientists measured this by stu dying the ends of children’s chromosomes(染色体), called telomeres, says Idan Shalev, lead author of a study published in MolecularPsychiatry. Telomeres are special DNA sequences (序列)which prevent the DNA in chromosomes from separating. They get shorter each time a cell divides, until a cell cannot divide any more and dies. Several factors have been found to shorten telomeres, including smoking, radiation and psychological stresses such as being treated badly when young and taking care of a chronically ill person.In this study, researchers examined whether exposure to violence could make children’s telomeres shorten faster than normal. They interviewed the mothers of 236 children at ages 5, 7 and 10, asking whether the youngsters had been exposed to domestic violence between the mother and her partner; physical maltreatment by an adult; or bullying. Researchers measured the children’s telomeres—in cells obtained by swabbing(擦拭) the insides of their cheeks—at ages 5 and 10. Telomeres shortened faster in kids exposed to two or more types of violence, says Shalev. Unless that pattern changes, the study suggests, these kids could be expected to develop diseases of aging, such as heart attacks or memory loss, seven to 10 years earlier than their peers.Shalev says there is hope for these kids. His study found that, in rare cases, telomeres can lengthen. Better nutrition, exercise and stress reduction are three things that may be able to lengthen telomeres, he says.The study confirms a small but growing number of studies suggesting that early childhood adversity imprints itself in our chromosomes, says Charles Nelson, a professor of pediatrics and neuroscience at Harvard Medical School.13. The new study found that ________.A. hardship can change a child’s agingB. violence leaves scars on a child’s mindC. violence can speed up a child’s agingD. hardship has a long term effect on a child’s mind14. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?A. Violence can cause quick cell division in children’s bo dy.B. Researchers measured the children’s telomeres from their legs in the study.C. Being treated badly will make a child’s telomeres shorten faster.D. Children who have shorter telomeres may have a heart attack earlier.15. What is the best title for the text?A. Violence Aging Children’s DNAB. Children’s Changing DNA PatternsC. Violence and TelomeresD. The Function of Telomeres第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10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。

about the world outside our bodies;while the other senses,the auditory (hearing),the olfactory (smell),the tactile (touch),and the gustatory (taste)bring into our brains information about the other 20% of what is happening.But there are two other senses that we cannot get along without,though they are little noticed.These are the senses of balance (平衡),without which we would act like a drunk after a heavy drink,and the kinesthetic sense(动觉),which gives us our ideas about our own motion (运动).16.Which is the best title for this passage?A.The Five Senses of Man.B.The Senses of Man.C.Senses

vegetable.可知西红柿是一种可口的蔬菜,故选D.22.B 推理判断题.根据文章第一段的But in the 18thcentury,Americans neverate tomatoes.They grow themin their gardens because tomato plants are so pretty可知,在18世纪的时候,美国人还不吃西红柿,他们在花园里种西红柿,因为西红柿很漂亮.所以美国人直到19世纪才开始吃西红柿.故选B.23.A 细节理解题.根据文章第二段第2行He had been toParis,where he learnedto love the taste of tomatoes.可知,他曾到过巴黎,在那里他开始喜欢上西红柿的味道.所以Jefferson

Whether you’re an occasional teen smoker or a lifetime smoker, quitting can be really tough. To successfully stop smoking, you’ll need to not only change your behavior but also find healthier ways to manage your moods. With the right game plan, though, you can break the addiction and join the millions of people who’ve kicked the habit for good.Start your stop smoking plan with STARTS = Set a date.Choose a date within the next two weeks, so you have enough time to prepare. And you’d better avoid the day when you may be stressed.T = Tell family, friends that you plan to quit.Let your friends and family in on your plan to quit smoking and tell them you need their support and encouragement to stop. Look for a quit buddy who wants to stop smoking as well. You can help each other get through the tough times.A = Anticipate (预料) and plan for the challenges you'll face while quitting.Most people who begin smoking again do so within the first three months.

But we usually return home tired and weak.It doesn't have to be this way.Come home refreshed after an active trip! Don't be too tired!Active vacations are often the most relaxing of all. It's all in defining what an active vacation is. We don't expect you to run slowly, or backpacking. Well, we ask the sedentary(坐着的) vacationers not to sit too long but to spend two to four hours a day doing things, such as walking the city streets, exploring a nature protect, going to a zoo or biking along the ocean.These kinds of activities aren't just good for your physical health. They improve your mental health, even your spiritual health. And they make vacations memorable and worthwhile. And after all, isn't that what you want from your vacation? Here are some fresh ideas to make your vacations as pleasurable as they are active and healthy.A walk at dawn or dusk is necessary. Try to make this a daily routine of life away from home, and you will ensure yourself both physical and spiritual adding.Don't allow yourself to spend your entire time sitting in front of the water. Whether it is the ocean, a swimming pool, or a tree-lined lake; make sure you get into the water for swimming or games or even walking. Heck, merely standing in waist-high(高及腰际的) water is a goodexercise, thanks to the action of the water. And you'll feel so much more alive!Many of us spend a large piece of our vacations on the road, either getting to and from our destinations, or using the car for sightseeing. But no matter how beautiful the scenery is, great, memorable vacations don't happen in a car seat. Don't wait for tiredness or nature's call to get you to pull over. Frequently get out and spread, walk, picnic, shop, visit, and have fun. It's important for your health and energy, and it makes traveling a lot more active and interesting.5. The writer writes the text mainly to .A. tell us how to make our vacations relaxingB. introduce the relationship between vacations and healthC. show us where we should go for our vacationsD. explain to us why we feel tired when traveling6. What does the underlined word “refreshed” mean?A. Full and excitedB. Pleasant but tiredC. Feeling less tiredD. Feeling regretted7. Wh at advantage can “the activities” in Paragraph 5 bring?A. They can bring us more chances to get outB. They just can keep us feel excited and confidentC. They can save us much time and make the trip meaningfulD. They can improve our health as well as making us feel easyCThe scene in the Hollywood movie The Day After Tomorrow, where global warming could soon turn the global climate(气候)into a new ice age, may never occur, according to new research.The next ice age could be 15,000 years away, say European scientists who last month announced a continuous record of 740,000 years of climate date(数据)obtained from the Antarctic ice.Scientists from 10 nations have now almost completely drilled through a 3,000-meter depth of ice high in the Antarctic mainland. They figure out that the area where summer temperatures can fall to, has at least 900,000 years of snowfalls, kept as neatly as the growth rings of a tree. And the ice and air caught in each layer(层)have begun to answer questions about the climates in the past. The results show that there have been eight ice ages in the past 740,000 years and eight warmerperiods. And by comparing the pattern of global conditions today with those of the past, the researchers reported in Nature that the present warm period could last another 15,000 years. Research suggests that there is a very close connection between greenhouse gas levels and global average temperatures. It also shows that carbon dioxide(二氧化碳)levels are the highest for at least 440,000 years.“ If people say to you: the greenhouse effect is a good thing because we would go into an ice age otherwise, our data say no, a new ice age is not hanging over our heads, ” said Eric Wolff from the British Antarctic Survey. “ Now we have eight examples of how the clim ate goes in and out of ice ages… and you can learn what the rules are that go into the climate models that tell us about the future. ”Scientists found that whenever temperatures rose in the frozen record, so did carbon dioxide level. “ In 440,000 years we have never seen greenhouse gas get as thick as it is today, ” said Dr Wolff.8. In drilling through the ice in Antarctica , scientists have found that ________.A. snowfalls are kept in certain patternsB. the lowest temperature there isC. the depth of ice is 3,000 metersD. the ice has existed for 15,000 years9. The information of the global climate conditions in the past can be obtained through_________.A. separating carbon dioxide from the airB. examining the growth rings of treesC. comparing temperatures in different areasD. studying the ice and air caught in each layer10. We can infer from Eric Wolff’s words that _________. .A. there is something wrong with the dataB. a new ice age will not come in the near futureC. greenhouse effect is always a bad thingD. greenhouse gas will get thick in the future11. What would be the best title for the passage ?A. Warm period to last about 15,000 yearsB. Research over the Antarctic areaC. Report on the eight ice ages in the pastD. Hollywood movies and the global climateDWhen we read newspapers, we often come across the word pollution. This word was not familiar to the people many years ago. But now, it is a serious threat to us because it means the poisoning of the air, seas, rivers and lands, which would do harm to our health.There are many factories that bring pollution to us. We can not have fresh air in the morning. This is mainly because of the harmful smoke coming from factories, especially chemical ones. The burning produces wastes, some of which remain in the air, causing air pollution. Nearly all of the countries are trying hard to prevent and control air pollution.In rivers, seas and oceans, there are industrial wastes. Some factories just throw their wastes into seas or let them flow into rivers. When people drink the water from such rivers, they get poisoned. Besides, there is rubbish from ships and sometimes when an accident happens in an ocean, oil flows out from tankers.On land, the accumulation(堆积的) of rubbish in the streets may dirty the city and be bad for our health. This is because people can't deal with rubbish in a right way. If we do not fight against pollution, surely one day all of us will be killed. Some people like to put the blame on the industrial revolutions(革命). On the contrary, the pollution problem will be solved only with the help of modern science and technology. People will continually find new ways to control pollution. However, we may still have a long way to go before we have a "clean" world.12. The underlined word "poisoning" in Paragraph 1 probably means “________”.A. dealing with the rubbishB. making the air and water dirtyC. bringing in something goodD. making the air and water clean13. How can we fight against pollution?A. To prevent the industrial revolutions.B. To control air pollution only.C. To stop the production of the factory.D. To rely on the help of science and technology.14. According to the passage, which of the following sentences is TRUE?A. We have found the best way to solve the pollution problem.B. We can reduce the ships to control the water pollution.C. The rubbish in the streets isn't bad for people's health.D. Pollution is a serious threat to us.15. What is the main idea of the text?A. How to deal with the rubbish in the streets.B. The problem of the oil from tankers.C. The serious pollution problems of water and air.D. The problem of controlling the industrial wastes.第二部分英语知识运用第一节完形填空(共20小题, 每小题1分, 满分20分。

17—18学年下学期高二第二次月考英语试题(附答案) (1)(2)

高二英语第二次月考试卷第一卷(共70分)一、阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题,每小题2分,满分30分)AWhen I was in my fourth year of teaching, I was also (and am still) a high school track and field coach(田径教练). One year, I had a student, John, who entered my class when he was a junior. John changed to our school from Greece, and seemed to be interested in sports, so I encouraged him to join our track team. I explained to him that even though he had never taken part in it before, I did believe that he could do well in any event, and I would be willing to coach him at whichever ones interested him. He accepted the offer, and began to work hard at every practice.About a month later, I had found out from other sources that John was a first-class tennis player, winning various junior awards in his home country. I went to him asking, "John, I really appreciate that you came out for the track team, but why didn't you play tennis instead? It seems that would interest you a lot more, since you're so good at it." John answered, "Well, I like tennis, but you told me that you believed in me, and that you thought I could do well in track, so I wanted to try it for that reason."From then on, I often remember my student's reply. I told it to a friend and she suggested I write it down to share somewhere with more teachers. No matter how critical (不满的) students can be of them-selves, I've found that a simple "I trust that you can do it!" can go a long way!1. According to Paragraph 1, the author seems to think more about John's ________A. PE marksB. self-confidenceC. interest in sportsD. state of health2. Why did John take part in the track team?A. He had been an excellent runner.B. He was encouraged by his teacher.C. He liked running more than tennis.D. He had no tennis coach to train him.3. The purpose of this passage is probably _____.A. to build a close teacher-student relationshipB. to introduce a new way of sports trainingC. to explain the value of sports and gamesD. to show the importance of encouragement4. The passage is mainly written for _____.A. teachersB. parentsC. studentsD. playersBUsing a mobile phone before going to bed can damage your health, according to a major study.It says that radiation from the mobile phone can cause insomnia(失眠症) and headaches as well as cutting the time spent in deep sleep. Failing to get enough sleep can lead to depression, lack of concentration and personality changes. In teenagers and young children, lack of sleep can result in attention disorders and poor grades.The research showed that using mobile phones before bed causes people to take longer to reach the deeper stages of sleep and to spend less time in them.Deep sleep is important as it is the time when the body rejuvenates(更新) cells and repairs damage suffered during the day. Scientists found that using mobile phones an hour before sleep affects it. In the study scientists examined the sleep patterns of 36 women and 35 men aged 18 to 45. Some were exposed to radiation that is similar to what a person receives when using a mobile phone. The others received none. The results are as follows: The first group took longer to enter the first of the deeper stages of sleep and spent less time in the deepest one. However, the second group was opposite.The findings will shock many parents. Many parents are always worried about their children’s health. But they didn’t have a better way to persuade them not to use a mobile phone.5. The passage mainly tells us that ________.A. deep sleep is good for your healthB. different people have different sleep patternsC. using a mobile phone before sleep can damage your healthD. long sleep can renew cells6. The underlined word “ it”refers to ________.A. people’s bodyB. deep sleepC. a sleep patternD. a day7. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Deep sleep is a good time for the body to repair damage suffered during the dayB. The study examined the sleep patterns of about 70 people.C. Using mobile phones before bed causes people to take longer time to enter the deep sleep.D. The findings shocked many teachers and teenagers.8. We can infer from the passage that _________.A. the lack of sleep can lead to children’s excitementB. radiation from the mobile phone can cause p arents’ worriesC. many children use mobile phones before sleepD. using a mobile phone before sleep doesn’t harm the agedCThe Healthy Habits Survey shows that only about one third of American seniors have correct habits.

About one third of them brush their teeth only once a day.10.Doctors suggest that people should wash their handsA. twice a dayB. three times a dayC. four times a dayD. eight times a day11. Which of the following is true according to the text?A. We should keep from touching our faces.B. A kitchen sponge can carry more germs than a toilet.C. There are less than 300 types of bacteria in the mouth.D. We should wash our hands before touching a door handle.12. The text probably comes from ________.A. a guide bookB. a book reviewC. a popular magazineD. an official documentDLeon McCarthy, 12, was born without fingers on his left hand.That didn’t stop him from being able to do many tasks.But Leon could not grasp more than one object at a time.So Leon’s father, Paul, created a prosthesis (假肢), using a 3D printer.Now Leon has fingers that open and close.“It was a do-it-yourself, father-and-son adventure,” says Paul.When Leon was a baby, his doctor advised his parents not to give him a prosthetic hand until he was in his early teens.“The doctor said Leon should first learn to get full use out of the hand he was born with,” says Paul.As Leon got older, his father looked into buying a prosthetic hand, which can cost as much as $30,000.Paul found a more affordable solution.One day, Paul discovered a video on the Internet about Robohand, a prosthesis created with a 3D printer.He downloaded the free instructions and called Robohand’s creators for advice.T hey told him all he needed was a 3D printer—which costs around $2,000—and some materials. Luckily, Leon’s school had recently purchased a 3D printer and it offered to help Paul build the hand for Leon.“We used a soccer shin guard (护胫),cardboard, and tape.They cost about $10,” says Paul.With his new hand, Leon can do things better.“I can help my mom more, because now I can carry two grocery bags,” he says.Leon’s father has already built several hands for Leon.Leon helps design each one.He says there’s one thing in particular that he wants to do with a future prosthesis.“The goal,” he says, “is to be able to tie my shoelaces (鞋带).”13.Why did Leon’s doctor disapprove of his using a prosthesis in his childhood?A.The prosthetic technology was underdeveloped then.B.A prosthesis was very expensive at that time.C.To master the disabled hand was important.D.The original hand could do many tasks.14.Leon’s father managed to get Leon a new hand by _______ .A.collecting money on the InternetB.buying a prosthetic handC.purchasing a 3D printerD.printing a hand15.The materials used for Leons hand can be described as A.cheap and common B.strange and valuableC.personal and lovelyD.basic and solid第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10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,选项中有两项为多余选项。

It was a rainy Sunday and my father had recently died. I asked my mum if my dad had gone to heaven. “Yes, honey. Of course,” she said. “Can we write him a letter?”She paused, the longest pause of my short life, and answered, “Yes.” My heart jumped. “Can the mailman go there?” I asked.“No, but I have an idea.” Mum drove to a party store and ret urned with a red balloon. I asked her what it was for. “Just wait, honey. You’ll see. ” Mum told me to write my letter. Eagerly, I got my favorite pen, and poured out my six-year-old heart in the form of blue ink. I wrote about my day, what I learned at school, how Mum was doing, and even about what happened in a story I had read. For a few minutes it was as if Dad were still alive. I gave the letter to Mum. She read it over, and a smile crossed her face. She made a hole in the corner of the letter to tie it to the balloon. We went outside and she gave me the balloon. It was still raining. “Okay, on the count of three, let it go. One, two, three. ” The balloon, carrying my letter, flew upwards against the rain. We watched until it was swallowed by the mass of clouds. Later I realized, like the balloon, that Dad had neverlet his sickness get him down. He was strong. No matter what he suffered, he’d keep on, fly up, and finally go beyond this cold world and his sick body. He rose into sky and became something beautiful. I watched until the balloon disappeared into the grey and white and I prayed that his strength was passed on. I prayed to be a balloon.21. When the girl asked her mother if they could write to her father, her mother __________ .A. believed it was easy to do itB. felt it difficult to answerC. considered her a creative girlD. decided to make up a lie at once22. When the girl was told that she could send a letter to her father, she __________ .A. became excitedB. jumped with joyC. started writing immediatelyD. didn’t believe her mother23. In the eyes of the author, what was the rain like?A. An incurable disease.B. Her unforgettable memory.C. The pain her mother suffered.D. The hard time her father had.24. What would be the best title for the passage?A. An Unforgettable ExperienceB. Fly to HeavenC. The Strong Red BalloonD. A Great FatherBMyth: If you cut your hair, it will grow long faster.Truth: That’s not true. “Your hair isn’t like a lawn or a rosebush, where cutting can stimulate fresh growth,” says Phillip Kingsley. The length of your hair is genetically determined. When it reaches a certain length, it stops growing. When you clear up the dead split ends, this makes your hair look healthier, but not necessarily longer.Myth: If you skip meals, you lose weight fast.Truth: There’s no truth in this advice. Not only will you not lose weight by starving yourself, but according to Carol Ann Rinzler, this may actually cause you to gain weight. Rinzler reasons that missing a meal causes your metabolism(新陈代谢) to slow down so that you burn food more slowly. This only makes you feel hungrier and by the time you finally do reach the table you will probably eat more food. Strange as it may seem, studies show that eating several small meals and snacks throughout the day is a more healthy way to lose pounds.Myth: If you swallow gum,it will stay inside your stomach for seven years.Truth: Actually, it takes just a few days for gum to make its exit---not seven years, says NeiIzenberg, M. D., editor of Kids Health Organization. But because gum is made of the same thing as rubber, it cannot be fully digested in your stomach--- so if you gum up the works on a regular basis, you might find yourself in a sticky situation.Myth: The best way to stop a nosebleed is to lift your head back.Truth: Now that’s bad advice. Bloody noses are caused by broken blood vessels, so while lifting your head back might stop the fluid from rushing out of your nose, it won’t stop the bleeding; you’ll just end up swallowing lots of blood.

If you often swallow gum, you might find yourself in a sticky situationCWhat’s the most important thing in life?People’s answers vary greatly. F or British scientist Robert Edwards, the answer is having a child. “Nothing is more special than a child,” he told the BBC.Edwards, the inventor of the In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) technology---more commonly known as “test-tube (试管) baby” technology---passed away on April 10, 2013 at the age of 87.“Edwards changed the lives of millions of ordinary people who now rejoice (高兴) in the gift of their own child,” said Peter Braude, a professor at King's College London. “He leaves the world a much better place.”Edwards started his experiments as early as the 1950s, when he had just finished his PhD ingenetics. At that time, much of the public viewed test-tube babies as “scary”, according to Mark Sauer, a professor at Columbia University, US. Edwards and his colleague Patrick Steptoe faced opposition from churches, governments and media, not to mention attacks from many of their fellow scientists. “People said that we should not play God and we should not interfere with nature,” Edwards once told Times. He said that he felt “quite alone” at the time.“But Edwards was a fighter, and he believed in what he was doing,” said Sauer. Without support from the government, the two struggled to raise funds to carry on. And in 1968 they finally developed a method to successfully fertilize human eggs outside the body. The first test-tube baby was born on July 25, 1978. Her name was Is Louise Brown. Despite people’s safety concerns, Brown was just as healthy as other children. “IVF had moved from vision to reali ty and a new era in medicine had begun,” BBC commented.Ever since then, public opinion has evolved considerably. Couples who were unable to have babies began thronging (拥向) to Edwards' clinic. Nowadays, Reuters reports, some 4.3 million other “test-tube: children exist. Edwards received a Nobel Prize in 2010 and was knighted (封为爵士) by Queen Elizabeth II the following year.Before his death, Edwards was still in touch with Louise. “He is like a granddad to me,” she said in an interview with the Daily Mail.He is a granddad to millions, in fact.28. What’s the article mainly about?A. The first test-tube baby.B. A new era in medicine.C. The inventor of IVF technology.D. The changes IVF technology has brought.29. The writer quoted Peter Braude to .A. show how difficult it was for Edwards to do his workB. describe what kind of person Edwards wasC. explain why he is loved by all childrenD. comment on his achievement30. The underlined word “opposition” in Paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to “”.A. attackB. supportC. testD. influence31. What is the correct order of events in Edwards’ life?a. He received a Nobel Prize.b. He struggled to raise funds.c. The first test-tube baby was born.d. He was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II.e. He succeeded in fertilizing human eggs outside body.f. He started his experiments on IVF technology.A. f-e-b-c-a- dB. f-b-e-c-d-aC. f-b-e-c-a-dD. f-e-d-a-c-bDThe world’s richest man might seem to have it all, but Bill Gates has one regret. The self-made billionaire said he felt stupid for not knowing any foreign languages.Speaking in his third Ask Me Anything question-and-answer session for online forum Reddit(红迪), the Microsoft founder said that he wished he spoke French, Arabic or Chinese.He said: “I took Latin and Greek in high school and got A’s and I guess it helps my vocabulary. I keep hoping to get time to study one of these—probably French because it is the easiest. I did Duolingo for a while but didn’t keep it up.”Gates, who is worth $79.3 billion, praised Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg for surprising an audience in Beijing when he spoke fluent Chinese. “Mark Zuckerberg amazingly learned Chinese and did a Q&A with Chinese students—unbelievable, isn’t it?” he saidThis isn’t the first time for Gates to admit his regret over language. He also showed his habits at home and personal insights.Last February, Gates said he likes to do the dishes himself—to his own special standards every night and also told the interviewer that his wife, Melinda, would likely want Samuel L. Jackson to play her husband in a biopic(传记片).He also admitted that he would pick up a $100 bill if he found it on the street.As he took the top spot on Forbes(福布斯)28th Annual Billionaires list last year for the fourth time, he said he is pretty basic when it comes to so ending on clothes and food, but that he enjoys investing in shoes and racquets(球拍)when he plays tennis.When asked a life lesson he had to learn the hard way, the billionaire said staying up too late is a habit he is still trying to break. “Don’t stay up too late even if the book is really exciting. You will regret it in the morning. Pam still working on this proble m,” he said.32. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. An Interview with Bill GatesB.

After climbing up a hill for a panoramic(全景的) view of the blue sea, white buildings and green olive trees, I paused to catch my breath and then positioned myself to ta ke the best photo of this panorama.Unfortunately, just as I took out my camera, a woman approa ched from behind, and planted herself right in front of my view . Like me, this woman was here to stop, sigh and appreciate t he view.Patient as I was, after about 15 minutes, my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I would eventually take, I gre w frustrated. Was it too much to ask her to move so I could ta ke just one picture of the landscape? Sure, I could have aske d her, but something prevented me from doing so. She seeme d so content in her observation. I didn’t want to mess with that .Another 15 minutes passed and I grew bored. The woman wa s still there. I decided to take the photo anyway. And now whe n I look at it, I think her presence in the photo is what makes t he image interesting. The landscape, beautiful on its own, so mehow comes to life and breathes because this woman is en gaging with it.This photo, with the unique beauty that unfolded before me an d that woman who “ruined” it, now hangs on a wall in my bedroom. What would she think if she knew that her figure is captu red(捕捉) and frozen on some stranger’s bedroom wall? A bedroom, after all, is a very private space, in which some woman I don’t even know has been immortalized(使……永存). In some ways, she lives in my house.Perhaps we all live in each others’ spaces. Perhaps this is wh at photos are for: to remind us that we all appreciate beauty, t hat we all share a common desire for pleasure, for connection , for something that is greater than us.That photo is a reminder, a captured moment, an unspoken c onversation between two women, separated only by a thin sq uare of glass.4. What happened when the author was about to take a photo ?A. Her camera stopped working.B. A woman blocked her view.C. Someone asked her to leave.D. A friend approach ed from behind.5. According to the author, the woman was probably_______.A. enjoying herselfB. losing her patienceC. waiting for the sunsetD. thinking about her past6. In the author’s opinion, what makes the photo so alive?A. The rich color of the landscape.B. The perfect positi oning of the camera.C. The woman’s existence in the photo.D. The soft sunlig ht that summer day.7. The passage can be seen as the author’s reflections upon _______.A. a particular life experienceB. the pleasure of trave lingC. the art of photographyD. a lost friendshipCImagine you got paid to do shopping, and could keep the thin gs you bought with other people's money. Does this sound lik e a dream? Well, for some, like Amy Knott, from Chicago, this is their job.Amy Knott is a mystery shopper. She is paid to visit a store, e at in a restaurant, go to a bank, stay in a hotel, get her hair cu t, fill up her gas tank, or see a movie. She pretends to be an o rdinary customer, but afterwards she writes a report about her experience, commenting on things like:How long did you wait in line? Was the food hot? Did the cashier say " Thank you.”?Did the restroom have soap and tissue? This gives companie s useful information about how they can improve their custom er service.So who can become a mystery shopper? You do not need any special qualifications or experience, but you need a good memory, an eye for detail, and good writing skills. When you apply for the job, instead of an interview, you will be asked to write about something like "What was your best shopping exp erience?"What is the pay like? For a 15-minute visit to a store, you might get $ 10 and the cost of what you buy. For a haircut, you might get $ 35 and the cost of the haircut. Most mystery shoppers do this job in their spare time , like Byron Jenner, who visits a restaurant on his lunch break every day and earns about $ 500 extra a month. But others, li ke Amy, make it their full-time career, and earn up to $ 40,000 a year."I love mystery shopping. I can't believe I actually get paid t o have fun," she said. "For example, tonight my husband and I will go out, have a $ 150 dinner, go to stay at a luxury hotel, and I'll walk away with $ 300.”8. Amy Knott is paid to go shopping .A. to comment on some thingsB. to see whether the cashier says "Thank you."C. to see whether the restroom has soap and tissueD. to do a research for a company to improve its service9. Which of the following is NOT the qualification for a myster y shopper?A. A good memory.B. Passing an interview.C. Good writing skills.D. An eye for detail.10. As a mystery shopper, Amy Knott feels the job .A. a sad thingB. a surprising thingC. a tiresome mailerD. a great pleasure11. What does the underlined word "luxury" in the last paragra ph mean?A. A condition of much noise.B. A condition of large si ze.C. A condition of great comfort.D. A condition of special cheapness.DTeaching can be one of the most satisfying jobs in the United States. Yet many American teachers say they feel overworke d, undervalued, and underpaid. This has led to what education experts call ‘teacher burnout’, a feeling of mental, physical, and emotional exhaustion.In all, nearly 50 percent of American teachers leave the profe ssion before their fifth year. That information comes from a 20 10 study by the advisory service McKinsey & Company. And, a 2017 study from Penn State University found that 46 p ercent of teachers report high daily stress. Teachers say the s tress affects their sleep, health, teaching performance, and qu ality of life. The study identified mindfulness training as one pr omising solution for improving teacher well-being.The Greater Good Science Center at the University of Califor nia — Berkeley studies the science and practice of well-being. It defines mindfulness as keeping “a moment-by-moment awareness of our thoughts, feelings, bodily sensation s, and surrounding environment.”A person can reach this emotional state by spending time in q uiet thought, without judging these thoughts and feelings. A n umber of people also meditate — they take slow, deep breath s to become calm.Many organizations around the country have designed mindfu lness training programs for schools. Some of them are design ed for teachers. The programs seek to reduce teacher stress while helping them be more effective in the classroom.Maureen Naughton is a seventh grade science teacher at a p ublic middle school in the Bronx section of New York City. As a highly active teacher, Naughton would sometimes forget to t ake time to herself. But after the programs she shared the me thods such as mindful walking and mindful eating — ways of enjoying those activities fully instead of being distracted by wo rries or responsibilities.Naughton also said the deep breathing methods help her to m aintain calm when faced with the stress of trying to “meet ever yone’s needs.”12. What does ‘teacher burnout’ in Paragraph 1 mean?A. A situation of physical exerciseB. A condition of happiness and sorrowC. A feeling of mental, physical, and emotional relaxationD. A feeling of mental, physical, and emotional tiredness13. What do we know from Paragraphs 2 and 3?A. A 2010 study was conducted by a college.B. Forty-six percent of teachers report high daily stress in last year’s st udy.C. Nearly half of American teachers leave the profession befo re their tenth year.D. Daily stress affects their sleep, health, teaching performan ce, and quality of teaching.14. What do mindfulness training programs designed for teac hers try to do?A. They try to make teachers enjoy those activities fullyB. They try to reduce teacher stress to help teachers be more effective when teachingC. They try to make teachers take slow, deep breaths to beco me calmD. They try to make teachers spend time in quiet thought, with out judging these thoughts and feelings15. What can we infer from Naughton’s words?A. Enjoy all kinds of activities carefully.B. Don’t be distracted by worries or possibilities.C. The deep breathing methods are a good way to let her kee p calm when faced with stress.D. The deep breathing methods help her to maintain calm wh en faced with the stress of trying to “meet everyone’s needs.”第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10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。

Language experts,however,will tell you that you’re never too old to learn a new language. As you get ol der, it can be more difficult to learn a new language,though.Children and adults learn new languages in different ways. For children, language is their life. They study for thousands of hours every year. Because they need to learn language to became part of their communities.Adults,on the other hand,are already part of a language community. Learning a new language means becoming part of another language community,and adults rarely get the chance to practice as much as young children do.Moreover.children leaning a new language are expected to make mistakes. This gives them freedom when learning to be daring and confident Adults,however,often feel pressured to be perfect when learning a new language.This can discourage many people and make it even harder to learn a new language.When young children learn a new language,they come to see various languages as a “normal” part of society.This mindset(思维模式) helps them embrace learning a new language without feeling like they're doing something unusual or“too hard”.So if you want to learn a new language,go for it! It’s never too late to learn a new language. If you're older,it may take more work,but it can be done.If you're a young child,though,now is the time to step out and learn a new language!25.By “Language is their life”,the author means that children .A.can't live without languageB.lead a happy life every dayC.practice a new language a lotD.are taken good care of adults26.What may make it hard for the old people to learn a new language!A.They are afraid of being laughed at.B.They usually have too many interests.C.They think making mistakes is natural.D.They always make all kinds of mistakes.27.Which of the following shows the difference between children and adults in learning new language?A.The behaviors they have.B.The learning attitudes.C.The future plans they have made.D.The materials they are using.28.According to the author,a new language .A.can never be learned by the old peopleB.can be grasped by the people easilyC.can be understood only by the old peopleD.can learned by both the old and the youngCAs time goes on, people have come to realize the importance of protecting the environment.
