13、Leonardo da Vinci was born on April 15, 1452 in Italy. He is best known as an artist today. One of his famous paintings is called Mona Lisa. However, Leonardo had many other natural abilities. He was also a great inventor. Many of his inventions have become important in modern day life. Although Leonardo hated war, he invented many different machines used for wars. His most special invention was the machine gun, which was produced and used in war many years later.
By watching the way birds fly, Leonardo tried to find out the secret of f lying. Among his sketches we can see several objects. We consider them as modern flying machines.
Leonardo spent many hours thinking about how to make good use of time. He developed ideas for labor-saving machines like cutting machines.
Leonardo was a strange man. He didn't eat any meat, which was unusual in those times. He never published his ideas and scientific discoveries. He usually used mirror writing, which looks like writing in a mirror, starting from the right
side of the page and moving to the left.
We have very little of his work today. Leonardo finished only a few of his paintings. He left many unfinished because he thought they were not perfect. No one in his life time knew how great Leonardo was. We now believe, however, that he was one of the cleverest men the world has ever known.

A．a musician B．an inventor C．a writer D．an engineer

14、Traveling is not always happy, at least for the buddies in the movie Green Book. The popular film won Best Picture at the 91st Academy Awards on Feb 25.
The movie was adapted from the true story of a road trip through the southern US in the early 1960s.
In the film, the black pianist Don Shirley hires Italian-American Tony Vallelonga to drive him to performances, but they face problems because of Shirley’s skin color. These problems lead them to form a special friendship.
“There’s something so deeply right about this movie, so true to the time,” wrote US film critic Mick LaSalle.The time LaSalle is talking about was between late 1870s and 1960s, a very different period in US history. Many parts of the country had Jim Crow laws (《吉姆·克劳法》), which allowed racial segregation (种族隔离). These laws made life and travel 39 for African-Americans. They couldn’t use certain hot els, restaurants, or even gas stations. They had to be indoors after sunset or they might be put into prison. Even black celebrities (名人) had to follow the laws.
But in 1936, a black mail carrier named Victor H. Green had an idea. He made a list of friendly businesses in New York City. He published the list as a small book with a green cover. The Green Book helped African-Americans travel more safely. Then, in 1964, Jim Crow laws went away. The book went away, too.
Today many US people still remember the t ime of Jim Crow. But they probably don’t know about The Green Book. It’s a forgotten part of the story. Thanks to this movie, maybe people can remember it again.
1．What was Don Shirley in the film?
A．A driver. B．A black pianist. C．A black mail carrier. D．A writer.
2．Which word below is the most suitable for the blank?
A．pleasant B．easy C．safe D．dangerous
3．What can we know from Paragraph 4 ?
A．Victor H. Green came up with the idea. B．The book is still in use now.
C．A black businessman made the list. D．The list was sold in New York City.
4．What does the word “it” refer to in the last paragraph ?
A．The period between 1870s and 1960s. B．Jim Crow Laws.
C．The Green Book. D．Racial segregation.
5．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A．They met problems during their trip because of Shirley’s bad behavior.
B．Jim Crow Laws disappeared in 1936.
C．Black celebrities didn’t need to follow the Jim Crow Laws.
D．The Green Book helped African-Americans travel more safely.

15、"I will think of it．" It is easy to say this, but do you know what great things have come from thinking? Though we cannot see, or hear, or feel our thoughts, they have great power (力量)!
Isaac Newton was seated in his garden on a summer evening when he saw an apple fall from a tree．He began to think, and tried to find out why the apple fell．Then he discovered how the earth, sun, moon, and stars are kept in their places．James Ferguson once saw the inside of his father's watch, and he wondered, "Why should I not make a watch?" This set him thinking and it led to a wooden clock which kept good time．
Walt Disney, the famous American film-maker, was often thinking of new ideas．One day, when he was in a meeting, he suddenly stopped talking, deep in thought．He looked and looked at a place high up in the room．This continued for a long time, and then he got an idea for a new cartoon．
Ideas come at any time, and the important thing is to think．When you meet with any difficulty, don't lose heart．Try to think of it before asking someone to help you．Think and by thinking you will learn how to think creatively．1．Newton wanted to find out ________．

16、It was on her 14th birthday that her first book, In the Forests of the Night, was put into publication（出版）. At 16, her second book, Demon in My View, also reached the bookstore. Several books later, the teenage writer still works away in her room, in which were shelves full of dark stories about vampires（吸血鬼）and witches（巫婆）. Amelia Atwater-Rhodes is seen as America’s finest teen writer and was named one of Teen People’s ＂20 Teens Who will Change the World＂.
Born in 1984, she began making up stories when she was three years old. Amelia said: ＂I love stories and can make up stories before I was told enough to know how to write them down.＂
In her family, reading was great fun. ＂My parents encouraged me to read and to read anything I wanted, so long as I was reading,＂she said. ＂They never stop what I read and never make me read the books I don’t enjoy. Later, when I started writing, they never told me that I was ‘too young to do that’. They never said it was impossible for me to get what I want. ＂
In her short but successful career, Amelia has tried different stories. But vampires were the first characters to really come alive in her work. From then on, she has developed a whole world, one which she always enjoys learning more about.

17、One day, while I was waiting for my father, I saw a little boy, around two years old, running freely on the grass as his mother watched from a short distance. The boy had a big smile on his face as if he had just been set free from some sort of prison(监狱）. The boy would then fall to the grass, get up, without looking back at his mother, run as fast as he could, again, still with a smile on his face, as if nothing had happened.
At that moment，I thought to myself, “Why aren’t most adults this way?” Most adults，when they fall down, make a big deal out of it and don’t even make a second attempt(尝试). They would be so embarrassed that they would not try again if someone saw them fall. Or, because they fall, they would find a good excuse for themselves that they’re not fit for it. They would end up being too afraid to attempt again for fear of failure .
However，with kids，when they fall down，they don’t consider their falling down as a failure, instead, they treat it as a learning experience. They try again and again until they succeed. The answer must be that they have not connected “falling down” with the word “failure”. What’s more，they probably think to themselves that it’s quite okay to fall down and that it’s not wrong to do so. In other words，they allow themselves to make mistakes，so they remain energetic. 1．What did the little boy do when he fell down?
A．He cried and lay on the grass. B．He asked his mother for help.
C．He got up and went on running. D．He got up and stood there crying.
2．In the writer’s opinion，what might the little boy consider his falling down as?
A．A failure. B．A joke. C．An interesting game. D．A learning experience.
3．In the writer’s opinion, why can’t many adults succeed?
A．Because they are afraid of being embarrassed.
B．Because they can’t find a good excuse.
C．Because once they fail, they won’t attempt again.
D．Because they don’t allow themselves to make mistakes.
4．The underlined word “energetic” in Paragraph 3 means .
A．精力充沛的B．高兴的C．沮丧的D．愉快的
5．What does the writer want to tell us?
A．Practice makes perfect. B．Failure is the mother of success.
C．All roads lead to Rome. D．Each coin has two sides.

19、Li Ming is a member of my team called Rainbow. Generally speaking, he is a warm-hearted and outgoing boy. He is always ready to help others without asking for anything in return. He can also get on well with teachers and classmates. In his spare time, he likes reading books on history, so he knows a lot of knowledge about history.
But as a famous sa ying goes “Every coin has two sides”, sometimes he doesn’t work hard enough on his lessons. I advise him to spend more time on the subjects from now on. What’s more, he’d better answer questions in class actively so that he can make great progress.
I’m sure if he can try harder to improve himself. He’ll be an excellent student soon.。
