Even though he was older and had been to college, but he was Still ready to learn from others. He would listen to your opinion carefully before expressing his opinion.I think what he taught me more than anything else is to have an open mind Another thing I couldn't forget was his teaching method -group workThere were four members in the group. Each group had its own topic. Everyone in the group would play a certain role. One would keep the discussion moving, the other one would write down the thoughts of the group, another one would be responsible for gathering information, and another one would share everything the group had discovered with the rest of the class.

The new newspaper was conceived(想出) by Cambridge University scientists. They came up with the idea of replacing silicon chips (硅片) with plastic ones. it is being developed by Plastic Logic, a company based in Dresden, Germany."It looks just like a table mat, and is as light as a magazine. But you can download hundreds of newspapers at the touch of a button, and read them quite safely," the BBC reported on its website.The plastic paper is produced in a safe "clean room" at the Plastic Logic factory, which opened last month as the world's first plastic-electronics factory. Every part of the product, from the screen to the electronics, is made of plastic. And it is described by engineer Dean Baker as "top quality". Baker says the plastic newspaper could help solve the problem of waste material associated with traditlional newspapers."There's a huge amount of waste . We have paper distributed（分发） all over the country each day and then thrown into the bin. This doesn't need to happen any more. All of the copies could be made electronically and stored on a single e-reader with the appearance of paper." he says.People can expect to see the plastic newspaper next year, the BBC says.【1】 According to the first paragraph, the electronic newspaper _____.A．is made of silicon chipsB．is smaller than a table matC．was developed by a company in EnglandD．was designed by more than one person【2】 What's special about the electronic newspaper compared with traditional ones?A．It looks like a table matB．It's as light as a magazine.C．People can download and read lots of newspapers on itD．People can receive the BBC report at the touch of a button.【3】 What can we learn about the electronic newspaper from the last two paragraphs?A．It will produce a huge amount of plastic waste.B．It will be harder to distribute than before.C．It will have no visual (视觉的) appearance.D．It will save a huge amount of paper.【4】 What's people's attitude towards the electronic newspaper according to the BBC?A．Hopeful.B．Doubtful.C．Disappointed.D．Worried4.As for older people, some of the applications（应用程序）are hard to use because they didn't grow up with them. They don't have simple models of how it should work. They don't know what to do when it doesn't work.I think there is huge potential, so I have designed some for them. The ability to connect to friends, who remember the same movies, news and music, is really important, especially as people get older. They end up in retirement homes and they aren't always close to their friends. Allowing the network to help them connect with friends and family members is a really powerful thing.My wife likes using the Internet, although it took me years to get her to use e-mail. She was born with normal hearing, but lost it when she was three years old. She was totally deaf for many years until 53 when she got ear implants（移植）．They work really well. That is a big change for her. Before then, her friends couldn't call her on the phone, so they insisted that she use e-mails to communicate with them.The younger people don't even think of this as technology. It's just there, and they use it .There's been a very interesting change in communication styles between the old and the young .A woman named Sharryturkle wrote about this phenomenon（现象）．There are some kids who are now in their teens and are tending not to make phone calls. And they think of e-mail as old-fashioned and slow.The reason why teens don't make phone calls seems to be that they don't know what to say. When they call they often pause for a while. On the other hand, texting is considered proper, and it's OK if you don't answer. You might have been distracted（心烦意乱的）．It's not considered rude, but it's considered unusual if you're in this kind of voice conversation and simply stop talling.【1】 We can infer from the text that the author is a____.A．company manger B．program designerC．college professor D．family doctor【2】 Why did the author's wife connect with others by e-mail? Because she______.A．didn't like to talk on the phoneB．didn't know how to use the phoneC．couldn't move or meet with her friendsD．was deaf and couldn't hear others on the phone【3】 What do the young people think of the Internet according to the text?A．Interesting.B．Amazing.C．Common.D．Dull.【4】 What is the best way for the teens to communicate with others?A．Sending e-mail.B．Making phone call.C．Writing letters.D．Sending text messages.5.Let children judge their own work A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time: if corrected too much, he will stop talking . He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the languagehe uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people's. In the same way, children learning to do all the other things without being taught, such as walking, running, climbing, riding a bicycle. They compare their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes.But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes and correct them for himself. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made t0.Let children help each other if they want--what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or notIf it is a matter of right answer, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book Let him correct his own paper. Why should we teachers waste time to such routine work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can't find the way to get the right answer. Let the children learn what all educated persons must some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.【1】According to the passage, how does a child learn to speak correctly? (No more than 10 words)【2】According to the passage, what is the best way for children to learn thing? (No more than 10 words)【3】According to the writer, what should teachers do in school? (No more than 10 words)【4】 Please explain-the underlined phrase "bit by tit” 'in English. (No more than3 words)【5】According to the passage why do teachers seldom give students chance to correct their ownmistakes? (No more than 20 words)四、书面表达近期，你校学生会以“高中生该不该参加秋游”为题，在你校展开了调查。

However, scientists say people have some wrong beliefs about the cause of colds.Many people think that once you get infected by colds, you will not be easy to be attacked by colds for the rest of your life. That’s not the case. There are about 200 different viruses that cause the common cold. You catch a cold because of one kind of them this time, but you might catch a cold next time because of another.Others believe that people get sick just because of the cold weather in winter. That is also wrong.It’s because people tend to stay closer in winter and the cold virus is transmitted from one person to another through handshakes, sneezing, or coughing.While there is no actual cure for the common cold, scientists say there are still a few things you can do to help you. Some experts say honey and chicken soup are effective against colds. Especially honey. There is increasing evidence that it helps shorten the duration of the common cold sometimes even by two to three days particularly in children. Chicken soup also helps reduce the duration of the cold.In addition, if you do have a col d and you don’t feel like eating anything, it’s not going to hurt you but you have to drink a lot and you can drink water or tea because doctors say the water cycle in your bodies helps to cure colds. That’s very important. Though there is more than one wa y to deal with colds, doctors say the best advice is to continue using whatever works best for you.【1】We know from the second paragraph that ______.A．the common cold is caused by only one virusB．there are people who never catch a coldC．colds can be caused by different virusesD．all people are easily attacked by colds【2】The underlined word “transmitted” in the fourth paragraph means “______”.A．passed B．changed C．cured D．caused【3】If you have a cold, you can do the following except ______.A．drinking a lot of water B．drinking chicken soupsC．eating honey D．forcing yourself to eat【4】 It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A．now scientists have found out practical treatment for coldsB．different people may have different ways to fight against coldsC．working in freezing weather is the main reason for coldsD．colds can be passed from animals to human beings2.When you need a job very much, you may end up taking one for which you are over qualified. Although you were initially grateful just to have the work, you now feel bored and depressed. Is there any way to change that? Start by changing your opinion, says Caitlin Kelly, the author of Malled, a book based on her experience as a sales clerk after losing her job in journalism. “Don’t focus on what you’re not getting but what you are getting,” she says. “Be patient and work attentively with a wide range of people. It doesn’t matter what the job is –there are always things you can learn and skills you can develop.”Hilary Pearl, the founder of a coaching firm, says, “Tell yourself the current situation isn’t the end of your career. Don’t overdramatize（过分夸大）the negative aspects but try to view the situation more philosophically: life has a series of stages, and this is one of them. Don’t forget to study even in the worst stage.”Consider that because you’re overqualified, you may be able to learn or do things on the job that might not have been possible in a more demanding position, says Sarah Hathorn, the chief executive of Illustra Consulting. “You could spend your extra time in learning different aspects of the business and teaching others in the organization,” she says.Is it possible to make your work more challenging, even if your job responsibilities aren’t likely to change?Of course, you may seek tasks and responsibilities that force you to learn something new or to work harder. “You may be operating on autopilot（习惯性地）right now, but chances are that people above you are stressed,” Sarah Hathorn says. “Take things off your boss’s plate and let him know which projects or tasks you want to learn more about.”Always express your request positively, saying that you love new challenges, rather than complaining that you’re bored and underused, says Ethun, the president of the Park Avenue Group. In your down time, educate yourself about the company and its industry. “Read corporate information, analyst reports and related news articles,” she says. “If your boss accepts your suggestions, it will make you a more valuable employee.”【1】According to Caitlin Kelly, ______.A．one should be willing to do some small thingsB．being a salesman is not as important as being a journalistC．performing your regular duties well is importantD．doing a simple job well will bring you a sense of success【2】What Hilary Pearl intends to express is that ______.A．work is just a stage of our whole lifeB．the present job doesn’t matter to us in a long runC．one should be satisfied with his present situationD．one should look forward instead of complaining about the present situation【3】The underlined words “take things off your boss’s plate” mean______.A．draw your boss’s attention B．share your boss’s burdensC．give your boss useful advice D．ask your boss for a better position【4】 What is the common view about careers of the people mentioned in this passage?A．One should start his career from doing a simple job.B．One should improve himself and help others as well.C．One should keep learning new things to improve himself.D．One should pay much attention to the relationship with the boss.3.That Upper class people generally have more educational opportunities, greater financial security, and better jobs than people from lower social classes, but that doesn’t mean they’re more skilled at everything. A new study finds, surprisingly, that lower class people are better at reading the emotions of others.The researchers were inspired by observing that, for lower class people, success depends more on how much they can rely on other individuals. For example, if you can’t afford to buy support services, you have to rely on your neighbors or relatives to watch the kids while you’re busy.One experiment researched on volunteers who worked at a university: some had graduated from college and others had not. Researchers used the educational level as an indicator（标志）for social classes. Thevolunteers did a test of emotion perception（感知）, in which they were instructed to look at pictures of facesand indicate which emotions each face was displaying. People with more education performed worse on the task than people with less education.In another study, university students who were of higher social status had a more difficult time accurately（准确）reading the emotions of a stranger.These results suggest that people of upper-class status aren’t very good at reco gnizing the emotions otherpeople are feeling. This is because they remember their upper status and they think they can solve theirproblems without relying on others.In the third experiment, people were made to feel that they were at a lower social class than they actually were, and they got better at reading emotions.“The differences between upper-class people and lower-class people are not something ingrained（根深蒂固的）,” Kraus says. “It’s the cultural environment leading to them.” This work helps show tha t the traditional image of the classes is wrong. “It’s not true that a lower-class person, no matter what kind of person, is going to be less intelligent than an upper-class person. It’s all about the social environment the person lives in, and the specifi c challenges the person faces. If you can change the environment even temporarily, social class differences in lots of behaviors can be removed.”【1】According to the passage, when lower-class people meet problems, they tend to ______.A．turn to others B．work even harderC．feel more frustrated D．learn from upper-class people【2】Why did people perform better in emotion perception in the third experiment?A．Because they became less independent.B．Because they didn’t know they were cheated.C．Because they felt they must ask for help from other.D．Because they were made to understand lower-class people.【3】What does the passage mainly talk about?A．Upper-class people are not skilled at everything.B．Upper-class people have trouble recog nizing others’ emotion.C．Lower-class people need to be given more employment opportunities.D．There are many differences between upper-class people and lower-class people.4.First lady Michelle Obama urged students to visit China at the “100,000 Strong” China Study Abroad Forum at Howard University.President Barack Obama announced the “100,000 Strong” Initiative（十万强计划）during his 2009 visit to China. The program aims to increase the number of American students studying in China by making study abroad more affordable.During the event at Howard, Mrs. Obama spoke about the importance of studying abroad. “Studying in a country like China is about so much more than just improving your own prospects（前途） in the global market. The fact is that with every friendship you make and every bond of trust you establish you are shaping an image of America projected to the rest of the world and making America known better.” she said.Mrs. Obama encouraged students to set aside the opinion that studying abroad is for “rich kids only” or for those attending “certain schools”. The first lady also announced that the Chinese government is giving 10,000 “Bridge Scholarships” to cover costs for American students studying in China.Some students who had studied in China shared their experiences. David Marzban from Pepperdine University recalled a time when he formed a cross-cultural bond with a complete stranger at a restaurant near Fudan University in Shanghai. He noticed a young chef signaling him to come over. “He pressed the p lay button on his media player and started singing California Dreaming and wanted me to sing along with him,” Marzban said. “At that time I knew a great friendship had started during my first two weeks in China.”Nicole Baden from Howard University recalled how her time in China really helped her master the language. “You have to experience the culture while learning the language to really master it to understand why things are how they are compared to your own culture,” Baden said.12-year-old Sarah Davis, who studied in China last summer, said she was very excited to hear Michelle Obama talk about the country. “I love Chinese. Out of all the languages I’ve learned, Chinese is the most difficult and interesting.” She said.【1】 According to the passage, the “100,000 Strong” Initiative ______.A．provides convenience for American students to study in ChinaB．was made by First Lady Michelle Obama in 2009C．got little support from the Chinese governmentD．isn’t well-accepted among American students【2】According to Mrs. Obama, ______.A．American students used to be unable to study abroadB．Studying in China can make American students’ future betterC．the Chinese government will offer all the US students scholarshipsD．American students’ studying i n China helps improve the relationship between China and the US【3】Three examples are given mainly to indicate that ______.A．American students are very popular in ChinaB．Chinese is the most difficult to learn in the worldC．Many US young people have actually been studying in ChinaD．American students’ studying in China is important and worthwhile【4】 What is the best title for the passage?A．A great program for American students to study in ChinaB．Michelle Obama encourages students to study in ChinaC．More American students will go to China to studyD．China is attracting more and more American students四、单词拼写根据所给的首字母和中文写出所缺单词的完整形式（每空1分，满分10分）【1】Quite a few v____________(暴力)scenes were cut from the film before it came to show.【2】 He s____________(强调) the importance of kindness, duty and order in society.【3】They are collecting money for a c____________（慈善机构）.【4】They can destroy houses, but leave the f____________（家具） inside exactly where it was.【5】I regret that a p____________（先前的）engagement prevents me from accepting your kind invitation. 【6】Arthur promised that he would answer the policeman’s questions with h____________（诚实）.【7】The people are fighting to gain their f____________（自由）.【8】Every day, many visitors are attracted by the r____________（遗迹）in the old city.【9】Our English teacher always explains difficult words or s____________（结构）in class.【10】There is plenty of e____________（证据）that smoking is very harmful to p eople’s health.五、其他阅读表达（每小题2分，满分10分）Walking is a popular form of exercises. It is an easy activity and offers a good way to improve physical fitness. Walking also gives many of the same benefits as other kinds of exercises.Regular, brisk（轻快地）walks hel ps a person’s body work better. Walking builds a stronger heart and lungs.The heart pumps blood through the body. It gets more rest between beats. Walking also seems to help protect the heart from heart diseases. Walking can help lose weight, too. What’s more, walking causes very few injuries, which is why there is a lower “dropout” rate among walkers than among runners. People are more likely to continue a walking program. This gives a better chance for success.Walking offers some mental benefits, too. It seems to make people feel better. Many walkers say they sleep better at night when they take regular walks. Others say they have a better attitude about life.Walking offers many of the same physical and mental benefits as other forms of exercise, but walking offers some special advantages, too.★ Almost everyone can walk.

Most walkers walk in all kinds of weather.Walking offers a form of exercise within the reach of nearly everyone.

His goal is to help as many people as he can.Tyler Kellogg calls himself a long-time do-gooder, and last summer he really did a lot of good. After collecting together $2,000 and using his car as a sleeping space, the 21-year-old college student hit the road. His goal was to do random acts of kindness for 100 strangers.He drove 1,600 miles, from his parents’ house in Adams Center, New York, to the Florida Keys, then back again. “The first person I helped was a person fixing a boat lift on a lake in Oneida, New York,” Kellogg remembers. “I was shaking when I asked if he needed a hand.” What if he thought Kellogg was crazy? “When he said, ‘can you help me get this lift into the water?’ I knew everything was going to be fine.”He helped a policeman fix a downed barricade(路障) in Washington, D.C., and spread many yards of mulch(护盖物) in Maryland and North Carolina. And somewhere outside Atlanta, he met a man who was crying because his wife had recently died and he had no one to talk to. “For three hours we sat in his garden,” Kellogg says. “When I left, he said, ‘Thank you. I realize now that my life will go on.’ ”In 55 days, Kellogg helped 115 strangers and made an exciting discovery. “You don’t have to have much money,” he says. “You just have to ask people, ‘How can I help?’ ”【1】What is the purpose of Tyler Kellogg driving so many miles?A．To practice his driving.B．To have a good trip.C．To do good things.D．To visit his friends.【2】What does the under lined word “random” in the 2nd paragraph probably mean?A．without determination(决定).B．willing.C．without any plan or aim.D．hopeless.【3】Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A．A Student’s Exciting Discovery.B．College Students’ Life.C．100 Strangers’ Dreams.D．The Best Road Trip.2.The new study shows that we spend more time using the mobile Internet reading newspapers or magazines or doing some other things. According to the European Interactive Advertising Association(EIAA), the average European spends 4.8 hours reading newspapers and magazines but 1.6 hours more using the mobile Internet a week.The EIAA questioned 15,000 people in 15 European countries, looking at how people are using the Internet and its influence on their everyday lives. It found that the mobile Internet is increasingly finding its way into the public awareness. Over 71 million Europeans now have Internet access on their mobile phones. In the UK, 10 million people now access the Internet through their mobile phones and spend 6.3 hours doing so in a week. Unsurprisingly, younger generations in the UK are leading the way, with nearly half of the country’s 16-to 24-year-olds and a quarter of 25- to 34-year-olds using the Internet, spending 6.5 and 6.2 hours online each week. Entertainment plays a main role in our mobile Internet lives, with one in five British people using their phones for online games, a third listening to the online radio and 39 percent watching films, TV or other videos at least once a week. One third of those using an Internet phone said they received videos, images or other multimedia on their mobile, and 61 percent said they passed on contents they received.From a communication point of view, 80 percent of those questioned agreed that the Internet had made it easier for them to stay in touch with friends and family.Alison Fennah, director of the EIAA, said the mobile Internet use had come to the point that marketers should be looking to develop strategies (策略) that co nnect with consumers more effectively. “Better devices as well as improved consumer motivation that start coming together in 2011 can make a great difference to extending the online experience.” Fennah said.【1】How long does a European spend on the mobile Internet per week according to the EIAA?A．6.4 hours.B．6.2 hours.C．4.8 hours.D．1.6 hours.【2】What do people mainly use the mobile Internet for?A．Communication.B．Entertainment.C．Study.D．Advertising.【3】It can be known from the passage that _____.A．more than half of the people in the UK use the mobile InternetB．the Internet is the most effective way to stay in touch with friends and familyC．the UK has the largest number of people who use the mobile Internet in EuropeD．better devices and improved consumer motivation help extend the online experience【4】The author wrote the passage to tell us _____.A．how to use mobile phones to surf the InternetB．newspapers and magazines will disappear soonC．more and more people use the InternetD．how the Internet influences our daily lives3.People who do not get enough vitamin A in their diet may develop night blindness. But in the developing world,a lack of vitamin A causes much more serious harm to children. The world Health Organization links the lack of vitamin A to as many as 250,000 child deaths every year.One excellent source of vitamin A is found in newly developed sweet potatoes with orange flesh. Orange sweet potatoes contain high levels of beta-carotene, which the body changes into vitamin A. Experts say orange sweet potatoes could help the Africans who are lacking in vitamin A. But, first, more people will need to be persuadedto eat them. Sweet potatoes need a better image in Africa. Jan Low with the International Potato Center says, “We do have an image problem with sweet potatoes. In many African countries, they are seen as a crop of the poor.”Ms. Low explains that sweet potatoes are mainly grown by poor women to feed their families in case another crop fails. The sweet potatoes commonly grown in Africa have white or yellow flesh. But they are low in vitamin A. Jan Low took part in a project to study how to market orange sweet potatoes to Africans best. She worked on an information campaign(活动) in Mozambique and Uganda. The campaign included radio messages about the nutritional(营养的)benefits of the orange sweet potato. They advertised its ability to “fight diseases, make you strong, clear you skin and make you look healthy”. In areas without radio, the campaigners spread the message through theater. The performances included singing, dancing and storytelling. And everywhere they went, the campaigners wore orange T-shirts and hats. They even drove orange cars.Dan Gustafson heads the Washington office of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization. He mentions the efforts in the past to increase the popularity of other nutritious crops. He says most of these efforts failed because organizers of the campaigns did not consider what people wanted to eat. People want to eat what they are familiar with. But Mr. Gustafson sees a better chance for the efforts to increase the popularity of the orange sweet potato in Africa. Except for the color, the orange sweet potato is almost the same as what people already eat. Dan Gustafson says, “I think this time the campaigners will succeed, because they have made enough advertisements and the difference between the vegetable they have advertised and what people already eat is not a radical one.”【1】What does the first paragraph mainly tell us?A. The benefits of vitamin A.B. The causes of night blindness.C. The results of a lack of vitamin A.D. The main reasons for child deaths.【2】Many Africans believe that _____.A．sweet potatoes are harmfulB．sweet potatoes are expensiveC．sweet potatoes are not nutritiousD．sweet potatoes are for the poor【3】The campaigners advertised orange sweet potatoes through _____.A．radio B．televisionC．white color D．phones四、其他【1】Could you write me a _______(总结) of what was discussed at the meeting?【2】The boy stood up in a hurry to answer questions without the teacher’s p_______.【3】I was _______(令人尴尬的) to forget my own address when the policeman asked me.【4】Having worked in the garden for a whole day, he was so e_______ that he went to bed immediately after supper.【5】With the price of the house going up, my father can’t a_______ one in Beijing.【6】Jim s_______ the earthquake, but his wife and two children died.【7】The woman tried to keep the b_______ between work and life .【8】Many newspapers and TV reporters came to i_______ the foreigners from all over the world.【9】The Chinese people will never allow Taiwan to become i_______, separated from the mainland.【10】_______(同样地), a child needs education to become a person useful to society.五、其他About 7 million people over the age of 65 have been diagnosed with depression, and many more could be suffering. It is high time that you learned how to know the signs and help them. Depression is a big problem for seniors, especially those who are lack of care and attention. Older people are much more likely to be alone, socially isolated(孤立的) or feel a lack of purpose. Sometimes older people have a much more difficulty time admitting mental health problems. Many times, the link between depression and physical illness is much stronger. The elderly don’t like to express sadness the way that young people do. Older people who are depressed may have more physical troubles and may pay more attention to them. Depression may result from early memory loss and meanwhile, depression will make a person forget more and faster. A patient with early memory loss and depression really needs to be treated for the depression to slow the memory loss. A mood change is also a sign of depression. If a previously calm person becomes increasingly annoyed, or a previously clean person no longer bothers to shower or clean up, that person should be considered.Don’t tell older adult s that you think they may be depressed, as older adults --- particularly men–see depression as a weakness. What you should do is tell them you’re worried about their health. Tell them they seem to be out of sorts.Say you just want to check with the doctor to see what’s going on. Once you’ve used physical symptoms to get that person to agree to a check-up, mention your fear to the doctor and allow the doctor to approach the subject of depression with the patient.【1】What is the title of the passage? (No more than 8 words)____________________________________________________________________________.【2】For what kind of older people is depression especially a big problem? (No more than 8 words)____________________________________________________________________________.【3】What attitude do older people have towards their mental illnesses?

He had never taken me to work with him before.How could I have said no? I had no idea where my father worked, nor how he earned a living. All I knew, back around 1992, was that he left our house every morning before we woke up and came back every night after we finished dinner. So, I gave him a positive answer.My dad drove us south to the city of Newark, where he was born. There we entered a middle-class apartment building. He made the rounds doing regular duty for the next few hours with me following closely. He checked the basic systems and services. He collected rents. He carried around a case of tools in case he needed to fix a broken door or get a washing machine running again.He took me to work with him a few other times over the years. I always loved going. I got to see him in action, doing his job among other people, out in the wider world and looking important, even heroic. I felt proud of him, proud to be his son. I wish he had taken me more often.Years later, I followed this tradition. I took my daughter Caroline with me to my office for a day. She saw me in a glassed-off conference room brainstorming with colleagues, on the phone talking with clients and — no doubt the most attractive scene of all — on my computer writing a report. With any luck, my daughter felt the same pride I had felt with my own father.Today fewer and fewer kids get the same opportunity. Maybe we should make this a tradition.41．Why did the author agree to go to work with his father for the first time?A．He wanted to earn money for himself.B．He was forced to go by his father.C．He was curious about his father’s job.D．He intended to repair their relationship.42．What tasks did the author’s father do?A．Checking systems, collecting rents, and fixing appliances.B．Working with colleagues and brainstorming ideas.C．Answering phone calls and organizing paperwork.D．Writing reports and attending meetings regularly.43．How did the author feel after seeing his father work?A．He felt pity for his father.B．He admired his father’s skills.C．He thought highly of his father.D．He questioned his father’s choice.44．What tradition did the author follow years later with his own daughter?A．Repairing broken doors and washing machines.B．Bringing her to his workplace for a day.C．Calling the clients and writing reports.D．Taking her to visit his hometown.45．How did the author’s experience with his dad influence him?A．It helped him build a successful career.B．It developed his great talents for business.C．It deepened his understanding of his work.D．It made him proud and follow the same tradition.Think about things around you when you get up in the morning: the alarm clock, toothbrush, toile, coffee maker, and shower heads… What do these things have in common? They are all inventions. They come in all shapes, sizes and varieties. And their inventors were from diverse backgrounds. Sure, many scientists have made discoveries and turned those discoveries into inventions. However, that doesn’t mean you must be a scientist to be an inventor.We often hear that necessity is the mother of invention, and it means that people often identify one of their needs and then try to meet that need. Sometimes the only way to meet thatneed is to invent a new product!Think about all of the musical instruments in the world. Now think of all the products that go along with those instruments. Instead of scientists, many of those products were invented by musicians. They discovered a need and then invented a product to satisfy it. They may have thought scientifically about the product. They may have had help from a scientist, but many people have shown that inventors can come from any background.Non-scientific approaches can help develop new inventions. Although thinking scientifically is often a necessity, it can also be helpful to think out of the box. We often get used to doing things the same way and thinking that some ideas won’t work, which makes us stop thinking about new things. But if we keep thinking, we might discover something amazing. That is why some inventors can come from a variety of non-scientific backgrounds. For example a poet and an astronomer both look at the sky, but they see it differently. The poet might have ideas about a problem the astronomer would never consider.See? You don’t have to be a scientist to be an inventor. Somehow, everyone can invent something.46．What is the main idea of the first paragraph?A．Inventions can be made by anyone, not just scientists.B．Inventions are mainly the result of scientific discoveries.C．Inventors must have scientific backgrounds.D．Inventors is good at inventing daily things.47．What does the underlined word in Paragraph 2 mean?A．Remember.B．Invent.C．Find.D．Develop.48．The writer mentioned the invention of musical instruments in order to show ______.A．the need for a solution leads to inventionB．music is very important in our livesC．inventions come from scientific thinkingD．music can help scientists become inventors49．What does the writer mean by saying “thinking out of the box” in Paragraph 4?A．It is helpful for people to keep thinking.B．It is not important for people to think scientifically.C．People need to think about things in new, different ways.D．People need to get used to doing things the same way.50．By writing the passage, what may the writer want to tell us?A．We should take a look at the sky.B．It’s not easy to write a piece of music.C．We should try to solve scientific problems.D．It’s possible for everyone to invent things.阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题.When Susan Greenstein Prescott was a high school senior, her English teacher, Fred DiMeo, gave her a terrifying task: recite (背诵) a poem in front of the whole class.“I had a stutter (口吃). I’d be trying to get a word out that might begin with ‘D’ or ‘TH’” Susan said. The thought of getting up in front of her classmates and stuttering through the poem was too much to bear. Susan went home and told her mom how scared she was. Her mom agreed to write a note asking for her to be excused from doing the work in front of the whole class. When the day of the recitation came, Susan recited the poem one-on-one to Fred. Once she was done, he said something she’d never heard before: he liked listening to her voice.For the first time, Susan considered the possibility that public speaking didn’t have to be a source of trepidation. “I think in his mind he wanted me to understand I have nothing to be afraid of,” she said. After college, Susan landed a job as a corporate trainer. The new position made her realize how big an impact Fred had had on her confidence. “I stand up in front of people and I speak. I do it all the time, and if I do stutter once in a while, no big deal,” she said.Susan recently found a way to contact her former teacher, and plans on sending him a letter expressing her appreciation. “He truly is an unsung hero,” she said. “I don’t know where I would’ve gone if I felt like I had to keep my voice quiet because I was afraid of embarrassing myself. I’d like to give him my thanks for that kindness.”51．Why did Susan refuse the teacher’s task? (no more than 10 words)52．How did Fred respond to Susan’s recitation? (no more than 6 words)53．What does the underlined word “trepidation” in paragraph 3 probably mean? (1word) 54．According to Susan, what gave her confidence to speak publicly? (no more than 5 words) 55．What do you think of Fred DiMeo? Please explain. (no more than 20 words)四、书信写作56．假设你是晨光中学的李津。

Artificial intelligence (AI) technology may help you do this in the near future!Researchers from Osaka University in Japan have trained an AI system to recreate images in people’s heads. The pictures AI has created include a teddy bear, an airplane and a clock tower. The technology is 80 percent accurate, reported Science magazine.Previously there have been AI models that can turn a word or phrase into images. The AI has studied lots of images and their text descriptions. Over time, the AI can find patterns and recreate pictures if you first input text.This time, the researchers took a step further. They trained the AI to link people’s brain scan data with images. They asked four people to look at 10, 000 different images, and let the AI find patterns of blood flow in the brain. Then the patterns can be related to the images.If people looked at an airplane, the AI would use the brain scan data to create an image of a very cloudy airplane. Then, it would turn on the previous “text - to - image” model. By feeding the keyword “airplane”, the AI would improve the image and make it more real.“It’s a new method that combines textual and visual information to ‘decipher the brain’”, Ariel Goldstein from Princeton University told Science magazine.Researchers said the technology could someday help people with paralysis to communicate. It might also help scientists understand dreams or even how other animals see the world.46．What do we know about the AI system mentioned in Paragraph 2?A．It can help train people’s minds.B．It can fully present people’s dreams. C．It was created for drawing people’s heads.D．It can recreate pictures in people’s heads.47．How did the previous AI models turn phrases into images?A．By understanding the meaning of the words.B．By finding patterns in images and their text descriptions.C．By drawing pictures according to users’ orders.D．By finding different photos from the internet.48．What is the working process of the new AI system?A．relate with image→scan blood flow→improve the text→turn into the imageB．relate with image→turn into text→scan blood flow→improve the imageC．scan blood flow→relate with image→turn into text→improve the imageD．scan blood flow→turn into text→relate with image→improve the image49．What is the last paragraph mainly about?A．How to know the way animals see the world.B．How people with paralysis talk with others.C．What the new AI technology could be used for.D．How AI technology affects people’s dreams,50．Which part of a newspaper may this text appear?A．Entertainment.B．Health.C．Education.D．Science.四、阅读表达阅读下面短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
