AElizabeth Blackwell was born in England in 1821, and moved to New York City when she was ten years old. One day she decided that she wanted to become a doctor. That was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. After writing many letters asking for admission to medical schools, she was finally accepted by a doctor in Philadelphia. She was so determined that she taught school and gave music lessons to get money for the cost of schooling.In 1849 after graduation from medical school, she decided to further her education in Paris. She wanted to be a surgeon(外科医师) , but a serious eye problem forced her to give up the idea.Upon returning to the United States, she found it difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman.

New York CityBI t doesn’t matter when and how much a person sleeps, but everyone needs some rest to stay alive. That’s what all doctors thoug ht, until they heard about Herpin. Herpin, it was said, never slept. Could this be true? The doctors decided to see this strange man themselves.Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw him sleeping. In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one.The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They asked him many questions, hoping to find an answer. They found only one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason? No one could be sure. Herpin died at the age of 94.6. The main idea of this passage is that_____A. large numbers of people do not need sleepB. a person was found who actually didn’t need any sleepC. everyone needs some sleep to stay aliveD. people can live longer by trying not to sleep7.

One reason that might explain Herpin’s sleeplessness was _____A. his mother’s injury before he was bornB. that he had gradually got rid of the sleeping habitC. his magnificent physical conditionD. that he hadn’t got a bed10. Herpin’s condition could be regarded as ______A. a common oneB. one that could be curedC. very healthyD. a rare oneCWe live in a digital world now, and a student's technology needs have changed. For the early years, say when you are in primary school, you can get by with no technology at all. Even if you have a computer, it's a good idea to get children familiar with libraries. At this age, trips to the library are like family outings.As you get closer to middle school, a computer with Internet access becomes more of a necessity. Teachers will often give assignments that require a student to use the Internet for research. After a computer, technology choices for students become more difficult to make –especially when it comes to cell-phones. Kids will beg their parents for a cell-phone, especially in middle school. For many parents, it's a safety issue: They want to know that their kids can reach them quickly if necessary. For teachers, cell phones can be used to record lessons when students are absent. But many teachers dislike cell-phones. Some kids send messages or have talks in the class. Sending messages also raises the problem of cheating on exams. More and more schools are now forbidding the use of cell-phones.Many kids see iPods as necessary things to have. IPods are great for music, but do they do anything good for your children’s education? Maybe they do. That’s the opinion of Doug Johnson, an educator for 30 years. Johnson says that educators should accept all new forms of technology in the classroom, including iPods. “Some do more with their cell- phones than we can do with our laptops,” he jokes. “I don’t thi nk we should be afraid. The truth is that it’s easier to change the way we teach than to change the technology habits of an entire generation.”11. According to author, primary school children should___.A. use the computer and the Internet regularlyB. ask their parents to buy them cell-phonesC. buy iPods to listen to musicD. go to libraries to read more books12. Why do parents agree to buy their children cell-phones?A. They want their children to be cool.B. They think cell-phones be helpful to their study.C. They want to keep in touch with their children.D. They want their children to keep up to date.13. The following are all reasons why many teachers dislike cell-phones EXCEPT ____.A. cell-phones can be used to cheat on examsB. schoolchildren will send messages during classC. cell-phones can be used to record lessonsD. schoolchildren might talk on them during class14. What does the underlined word “that” refers to?A. iPods can be used to listen to music.B. iPods can be helpful for children’s education.C. iPods can be used to play games.D. iPods are necessary for children’s lives.15. We can infer from what Doug Johnson said that _____.A. cell-phones are not useful to studentsB. teachers should let students use cell-phonesC. it’s better for teachers to change their teaching methodsD. schoolchildren should follow the trends(潮流) of fashionDCheating can happen in a lot of different ways. When people cheat, it’s not fair to other people, like the kids who studied for the test or who were the true winners of a game.Many people like the action of cheating. It makes difficult things seem easy, like getting all the right answers on the test. But it doesn’t solve the problem of not knowing the material and it won’t help on the next test --- unless the person cheats again.Some people lose respect for cheaters and think less of them. The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really earning that good grade. And, if they get caught cheating, they will be in trouble at school, and maybe at home, too.Some kids cheat because they’re busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending the time studying. Other kids might feel like they can’t pass the test without cheating. Even when there seems to be a “good reason” for cheating, cheating isn’t a good idea.If you were sick or upset about something the night before and couldn’t study, it would be better to talk with the teacher about this. And if you don’t have enough time to study for a test because of swim practice, you need to talk with your parents about how to balance swimming and school.A kid who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so they can find some solutions together. Talking about these problems and working them out will feel better than cheating.16. The author thinks that when kids cheat in class, _______.A. it is unfair to other peopleB. it does harm to their heathC. teachers should punish themD. teachers shouldn’t stop them at once17. Some students like cheating mainly because_________.A. the material in the test is very difficultB. they want to do better than the othersC. cheating can make hard things seem very easyD. they have little time to study their lessons18. The fourth paragraph mainly tells us______.A. cheating isn’t a good ideaB. why kids cheat in the testC. some kids can’t pass the test without cheatingD. s ome kids don’t spend the time studying19. We can learn from the passage______.A. cheaters are often thought highly ofB. kids cheat in the test because of swim practiceC. parents whose kids cheat are often in troubleD. people show no respect for those who cheat20. In the passage those cheaters are advised to_______.A. spend more time on school than on sportsB. ask their classmatesfor good methods of studyC. try hard to be intelligent rather than lazyD. find good solutions instead of cheating第二部分：语言知识运用（共三节，满分75分）第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
