If shyness is making you uncomfortable, it may be time for a few lessons in self-confidence. You can build your confidence by following some suggestions from doctors and psychologists.Make a decision not to hold back in conversations. What you have to say is just as important as what other people say. And don’t turn down party invitations just because of your shyness. Prepare for yourself for being with others in groups. Make a list of the good qualities you have.Then make a list of ideas, experiences, and skills you would like to share with other people . I think about what you would like to say in advance. Then say it.If you start feeling self-conscious in a group, take a deep breath and focus your attention on other people, Remember, you are not alone. Other people are concerned about the impression they are making, too.No one ever gets over being shy completely, but most people do learn to live with their shyness. Even entertainers admit that they often feel shy. They work at fighting their shy feelings so that they can face the cameras and the public. Just making the effort to control shyness can have many rewards. But perhaps the best reason to fight shyness is to give other people a chance to know about you.would this article probably appearA.In a popular magazineB.On the top-line position of a newspaperC.In a science textbookD.In an encyclopedia(百科全书)57. The main purpose of the article is to _____.A. explain how shyness developedB .recommend ways of dealing with shynessC. persuade readers that shyness is naturalD. prove that shyness can be overcome58.

Who probably gives the suggestion for fighting shynessA. The author of the articleB. Shy men and womenC. Doctors and psychologistsD. Popular entertainersB(预、普)A new plan for getting children to and from school is being started by a local government in Eastern England. This could end the worries of many parents fearful for their children’s safety on the roads.Until now the local government have only been prepared to provide bus services for children living more than three miles from their school, or sometimes less if special reasons existed. Now it has been decided that if a group of parents ask for help in organizing transport they will be prepared to go ahead, as long as the arrangement will not lose money and children taking part will be attending their nearest school.The new plan is to be fired out this term for children living at Milton who attend Impington School. The children live just within the three-mile limit and the local government said in the past that they would not undertake to provide free transport to the school . But now they have agreed to offer a sum of money for a bus service from Milton to Impington and back, a plan which has the support of the school’s headmaster. Between 50 and 60 parents have said they would like their children to take part . Final calculations have still to be carried out, but a government official has said the cost to parents should be less than £20 a term. They have been able to arrange the service at a low cost because there is already an agreement with the bus company for a bus to take children who live further away to Impington . The same bus would now just make one more journey to pick up the Milton children. The official said they would get in touch with other groups of parents who in the past had asked if transport could be provided for their children , to see if they would like to take part in the new plan. is the aim of the planA.To prevent the students’ road accidentsB.To relieve the traffic pressureC.To save time for the parents and studentsD.To help the parents save money61. How can the local government arrange the new bus service at a low costA.By letting the bus run in the morning onlyB.By limiting the number of the studentsC.By getting the support from the headmasterD.By linking the new bus service with the existing one62. Which of the following is possible if the plan is carried outA.The bus company will make much more moneyB.The children can choose whatever school they likeC.The parents can get rid of their worriesD.The students in Impington School can have free bus rides63. This passage is most probably _____A. a personal letterB.an advertisementC. a headmaster’s reportD. a newspaper articleC(预)Every artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public. Not only does he want to say it well, but he wants it to be something that has not been said before. He hopes that the public will listen and understand ----he wants to teach them, and he wants them to learn fromhim.What visional artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain, because painters translate their experience into shapes and colors, not words. They seem to feel that a certain choice of shapes and colors, out of the countless billions possible, is very interesting for them and worth showing to us. Without their work we should never have notice these particular shapes and colors ,or have felt the delight which they brought to the artists.Most artists take their shapes and colors from the world of nature and from human bodies in movement and at rest; their choices show that these aspects(方面)of the world are worth looking at, that they contain beautiful sights. Modern artists might say that they only choose subjects that provide an interesting pattern, that there is nothing more in it. Yet even they do not choose totally without thinking about the character of their subjects.If one painter chooses to paint a decaying(溃烂的) leg and another a lake in moonlight, each of them is directing our attention to a certain aspect of the world . Each painter is telling us something , showing us something , emphasizing something----- all of which means that, consciously or unconsciously, he is trying to teach us.is hard to explain what a painter is saying because _______.A. most painters do not express themselves wellpainter uses unusual words and phrasespainter use shapes and colors instead of wordspainters do not say anything65. Modern artists might say their choice of subjects ______.A.carries a message to the public provides interesting patternsno pattern or form D. teaches the public important truths66. The writer says that modern art contains______A. nothing but meaningless patterns aspects of the worldC. subjects chosen partly for their meaningD. completely meaningless subjectsD(预)Cole Bettles had been rejected by a number of universities when he received an e-mail from the University of California, San Diego, last month, congratulating him on his admission and inviting him to tour the campus. His mother booked a hotel in San Diego, and the 18-year-old Ojai high school senior arranged for his grandfather, uncle and other family members to meet them at the campus for lunch during the Saturday tour.“They were like ‘Oh my God, that’s so awesome (棒的)’,” Bettles said. Right before he got in bed, he checked his e-mail one last time and found another message saying the school had made a mistake and his application had been denied.In fact, all 28, 000 students turned away from UC San Diego, in one of the toughest college entrance seasons on record, had received the same incorrect message. The students’ hopes had been raised and then dashed (破灭) in a cruel twist that shows the danger of instant communications in the Internet age.UCSD admissions director Mae Brown called it an “administrative error” but refused to say who had made the mistake, or if those responsible would be disciplined (受训)。

Firstly, what confuses me most is the proper use of tenses. I often mix up tenses, leading to low scores on my writings, What’s more, I s truggle to find appropriate wordsto express myself accurately. Despite my massive efforts to expand my vocabulary, words still fail me when I need to write. In addition, I find it difficult to make my writing well-structured and coherent, which frustrates me a lot.I’d appreciate it if you could give me some practical suggestions on my problems. Looking forward to your reply.Yours,Li Hua第二节(满分25分)Before I knew it, I had only one day left for the project. In a panic I quickly glued together whatever materials I could find, my hands shaking with the weight of each hasty decision. The finished result looked miserable. However, several of my classmates, including Nate, had created amazingly detailed buildings. They used materials like clay, wood and so on and their constructions were highly praised by Mr. Smith. When I saw their models, I felt even more embarrassed about mine. It was apparent that they had put a lot more time into the assignment than I had.That taught me a great lesson. I learned from that day the importance of deciding on my priorities and budgeting my time. From then on, I tackled things a lot earlier instead of putting things off until tomorrow. As a result, not only did I finish my tasks ontime, but I also felt better because I didn’t have to panic at the last minute. At the end of the semester, my work was chosen by Mr. Smith on another occasion. Seeing my change, my parents and my sister were so proud of me. It dawned on me that getting things done on time instead of being a procrastinator really counted.听力录音稿Text 1M: Do you have any idea what’s wrong with my houseplant It gets plenty of sun and enough plant food...W: Are you watering it too often Remember this plant comes from the desert where there’s hardly any rain.M: Ah..Maybe that’s the problem!Text 2M: It seems to be human nature to pursue what we don’t have. Tall people want to be shorter, and short people want to be taller... W: I know. For example, when I was younger, my cousin always wanted my golden hair, and I wanted dark hair like hers.Text 3W: Hi, are there any tickets left for tonight’s concertM: Sorry, they’re sold out. But I can put you on the waiting list, in case there are any cancellations tonight. Would you like me to do thatW: Oh, yes, please. Let me give you my phone number.Text 4M: Oh, this is so annoying! We’ve been driving around for ages, and I haven’t seen a single space.W: There’s a street party going on in town today. That’s probably why it’s busy. Let’s try the supermarket... You can park there for free as long as you buy something.Text 5W: So, tell me a little bit about the character you played in your new film Last Weekend.M: Well, Jake is a sort of the ‘everyman’ character. He doesn’t have any special talents. In fact, he lives a pretty boring life, until his old friend Maggie returns to town...Text 6M: Can I borrow your phone for a second Mine is dead, and I can’t find my charger.W: Sure.M: Thanks. Hey, what’s wrong with your screen It’s all dark and the colors look strange.W: Oh! I’ve been using an app called “Sunset” to help me sleep at night.M: Really HowW: Well, studies show that too much blue light from screens can make sleeping difficult. So, in the evenings, the app puts a red filter (滤光器) over the screen to cancel it out.M: Oh, interesting. Does it helpW: Yeah, I think so! I also listen to white noise, which helps me fall asleep too.Text 7M: Can we do something about the temperature in here I have so many emails to deal with today, but my hands are so cold that I can hardly type my report!W: I know. I’ve been struggling too. But the heat probably won’t be turned on until the end of the month.M: Why notW: It’s a part of the company’s plans to save energy.M: Well, I can understand that. But how are we supposed to work in these conditionsW: I guess we always have the choice to work from home.M: True. But before my youngest daughter starts school, it’s just too difficult for me to do that. I wouldn’t be able to focus.W: Then I think we should talk to the boss about what can be done, otherwise people will start getting ill.Text 8W: Well, here we are! I can’t wait to get inside and see what’s on offer!M: I heard this year’s Mini Fair is going to be even bigger and better than last year’s. It won’t disappoint us.W: Oh really I had to go to a boring work event at that time, so I couldn’t come last year.M: Yes! I got so many things for my model train set.W: Like whatM: Well, the coolest things I got were some tiny little trees. They looked so real.W: Wow!M: I’m hoping t he guy who sells them is here again this year.W: I hope so! Now that I’m satisfied with the inside part of my dolls’ house, I want to focus on creating the garden. So, it would be great to get some little plants and trees.

Text 10On my recent business trip to Shanghai, I met up with a local friend who took me out for a very interesting evening meal. At the Community AI Canteen, everything is done by robots. When you walk in there, you place your order on a screen. Using robotic arms, the intelligent cooking system then cooks your food before packing it up... It even adjusts the temperature, depending on whether you want to eat it straight away or take it home with you! To pay, you place your food on a smart cash desk, which immediately calculates (计算) the cost. There’s even a 24-hour noodle machine just outside, which offers hot and fresh food around the clock. The canteen offers a huge amount of choices and the dishes taste great. It is really fun to get “a taste of the future”. However, I’m not sure I would like all restaurants to be run by robots. I can see the benefits for busy families or office workers needing a quick lunch, but what about lonely older people who would miss the human touch I do think we will see more places like this in the future, though. At best, a human waiter can serve around 100 people in a day. The AI system can serve double that figure, making it good for business.荆州中学2024-2025学年高二上学期9月月考英语试题命题人:审题人:(全卷满分150分考试时间120分钟)第一部分听力(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分,满分7.5分)听下面5段对话。

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)As a reliable travel agency, we really do try to describe our centers and accommodation as realistically as possible. All our Super Centers and Main Centers have been extensively investigated during the winter season 1975-1976. As a result we have first-hand information on the way in which hotels, life networks and ski schools, etc. operate during the season. We have not been able to investigate, at first hand, all our Independent Centers during the last season but all have been visited during the past three seasons. Should you need any more information about these centers we will try to get it for you? Our American centers have been investigated on our behalf by United Airlines ToursDepartment and by the U.S. tour operators who are assisting United and ourselves to offer you this fresh program to the United States.We have eliminated the use of superlatives from the text (possibly making our brochure less attractive to read than it might be) and have concentrated on as accurate a description as possible. Nevertheless you should bear in mind that your opinion and the opinion of our investigator might differ and there may be changes between the time of a visit by our investigator and the visit of one of our customers.We trust that it is evident to you that we have done all in our power to eliminate misdescription and that there really is no question of misrepresentation on our part一either careless or otherwise. We welcome your constructive criticism一it is the best way we know of improving our brochure and our service. Although complaints are very expensive to handle, your complaint or criticism will be thoroughly investigated and a refund will be made if it is justified一none will be made if it isn't.42.The "Independent Centers95 were personally inspected ________ .A.the year before lastB. three years agoC.between 1975 and 1976D. within the last three seasons43.The program of tours to the United States appears to be __________ .A.a new cooperation with U.

Scott Fitzgerald^ novel The Great Gatsby, now is your chance to catch up 一by watching the latest film adaptation. Because if there9s one sentence to sum up the film, it would be: It's just like the book.The use of music is almost reason enough to see the film. Baz Luhrmann is at his best mixing visual and musical styles together to create something wholly original, for example, inone of the most outstanding scenes in the film, the first party scene, Nick walks quickly from one party guest to another party guest trying to explain all the gossip about Gatsby until he is finally introduced to the man himself, while the most stirring version of Rhapsody in Blue(蓝色狂想曲),which was composed by American musician George Gershwin in 1924, is played in the background.—Fox News Director Baz Luhrmann^s main challenge was either to find a visual equivalent(木口等物)for Fitzgerald's elegant quality 一the open secret of the book,s popularity for so long time 一or to match his own unusual personal strengths with the material. He tries it both ways, with considerable degrees of success.Leonardo DiCaprio does a good and professional job as the socialite(社会名流)by recreating Fitzgerald^ description of Gatsby9s charm. He can look at someone for an instant and understand how, perfectly, he or she wants to be seen.—Time MagazineAbout the Book and the Main Character:Considered to be Fitzgerald^ representative work, The Great Gatsby explores themes of idealism, resistance to change, social change, and excess, creating a portrait of the Jazz Age or the Roaring Twenties that has been described as a tale regarding the American Dream.Nick, the narrator, moves to New York for the summer to visit his cousin Daisy. His next-door neighbor is Jay Gatsby (Leonardo DiCaprio), who rarely contacts with others and is said to be a hero of the Great War. Gatsby claims to have attended Oxford University, but the evidence is suspect. As Nick learns more about Gatsby, every detail about him seems questionable, except his love for the Daisy. Though Daisy is married, Gatsby still loves her as his “golden girlt They first met when she was a young lady from a wealthy family and he was a working-class military officer. Daisy promised to wait for his return from the war. However, she married Tom, a classmate of Nick's. Having obtained a great fortune, Gatsby sets out to win her back again.46.The Fox News review mentioned the first party scene in the film to _______ •A.reveal the fact that Nick wants to know more about GatsbyB.show the version of Rhapsody in Blue matches the film wellC.prove that the director is good at combining visual and musicD.convince us that the first scene is perfectly filmed by the director47.According to Time Magazine, what did Baz Luhrmann do to make the film a success?A.He adapted the story in the novel as he wished.B.He made the film more powerful than the book・C.He mixed his style with the elegance of the book.D.He changed the story to meet his own style.4& Which of the following can be used to describe Gatsby?A. Faithful and warm-hearted.B. Charming and professional.C.Selfish and timid・D. Mysterious and devoted.(C)The British Medical Journal recently featured a strong response to what was judged an inappropriately merciful reaction by a medical school to a student cheating in an examination. Although we have insufficient reliable data about the extent of this phenomenon, its prevention, or its effective management, much can be concluded and acted upon on the basis of common sense.There is general agreement that there should be zero tolerance of cheating in a profession based on trust and one on which human lives depend・ It is reasonable to assume that cheaters in medical school will be more likely than others to continue to act dishonestly with patients, colleagues, and government.The behaviours under question are multifactorial in origin. There are familial(家庭的),religious, and cultural values that are acquired long before medical school. For example, countries, cultures, and subcultures exist where bribes and dishonest behaviour are very normal. There are secondary schools in which neither staff nor students tolerate cheating and others where cheating is common; there are homes which cultivate young people with high standards of moral behaviour and others which leave moral training to the harmful influence of television and the market place.Medical schools reflect society and cannot be expected to remedy all the ills of a society. The selection process of medical students might be expected to favour applicants with positive moral behaviour. Medical schools should be the major focus of attention for cultivating future doctors with moral sensitivity. Unfortunately there are troubling data that suggest that during medical school the moral behaviour of medical students does not necessarily improve; indeed, moral development may actually stop or even regress(倒退).It is critical that the academic and clinical leaders of the institution set a personal example on moral behaviour. Medical schools must do something to make sure that their students are expected to be clear from day one. The development of a schoofs culture of moral behaviour requires cooperation with the students in which they play an active role in its creation and developing. Moreover, the schooFs examination system and general treatment of students must be fair. Finally, the treatment of infractions (违规)must be firm, fair, transparent明的).49.What does the author say about cheating in medical schools?A.Extensive research has been done about this phenomenon.B.We have sufficient data to prove that prevention is possible.C.We know that this phenomenon exists in every medical school.D.We still need more reliable data to know how serious it is-50.According to the author, it is important to prevent cheating in medical schools becauseA.the medical profession is based on trust.B.there is zero tolerance of cheating in medicine.C.the medical profession depends on the government.D.cheating exists extensively in medical schools.51.Which of the following statements will the author probably agree with?A. Medical schools should make a less competitive environment for students.B・ Outstanding people should create a set of moral standards to be followed.C.Medical students should be positive in creating and preserving moral behavior.D.We should focus on the cause-and-effect of the cheating in exams in medical schools.52.Which of the following can be implied from the passage?A.It makes little sense to talk about medical school student cheating in exams.B.Medical schools haven^t been doing well to help students develop morally.C.Cheating in exams is tolerable outside of medical school circle.D.Elimination of exams helps cultivate healthier characters of medical school students.Section C 8,Directions: After reading the passage below, choose the best answers from the six statements according to what you have just read.A.It generally arises from two related causes.B.It is not only the farmers and villagers who suffer.C.Scientists are doing the research on the cause of desertification.D.They destroy the land, as the soil dries out and is then blown away.E.Tree planting can help, by providing barriers between desert and rich field.F.This means that the wrong crops are planted, and need more water than is available.Imagine living on the edge of a vast desert, which is moving quietly closer to your village every day and covering your fields. The desert is on the move. This is called desertification.Desertification occurs in regions close to an already existing desert. 53 The first is over-use of water in the area. There is not enough water in any case, and if it is not carefully used, disaster can follow. As time goes on, water shortages make farming more and more difficult. In some places, locals can remember local lakes and marshes which were once the homes for all kinds of fish and birds. They have been completely buried by the sand now. Farmers leave the land, and fields are replaced by deserts.The seco nd cause is misuse or over-use of the land. 54 Ploughing large fields and removing bushes and trees means that the wind will blow away the soil Once the soil is lost, it ishard to replace, and if there is rain, it has nowhere to go, and brings no benefit.55 Every spring, the skies over some of eastern cities, thousands of kilometers away from the deserts, can be darkened by sandstorms. Dust from deserts can have a great effect on weather systems. While desertification is perhaps being partly caused by global warming, these sandstorms can make global warming worse by adding to what is known as the greenhouse effect.What can be done to slow down or stop the process of desertification? A great deal of work is already under way. Obviously first steps are to find new water sources. 56 Some types of grass also hold the soil together, and stop the wind taking it. Without these efforts, it will be harder and harder to stop the worlds deserts in their tracks, and more and more farmers will give up and head for cities. The lesson to be learnt lies beneath the sand.III.Translation 3'+3,+4'+4'Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets. 57.据称,现代拳击起源于英国。

It is the first US city to take such a strong step to keep this technology under control.When a computer system identifies a person from their face in a picture, it’s called “facial recognition” (面部识别). Many police departments use facial recognition. It can be helpful when the police just have a picture of a suspect (嫌疑犯),but no other information. Normally, even with facial recognition the police must have other proof showing that a person is guilty. But many people say facial recognition programs aren’t good enough yet. The programs can usually recognize white men. But they’re not so good at identifying women and people with darker skin. They worry that “false matches” --- when the computer thinks it has identified a person, but it’s wrong --- will make innocent (无罪的) people look like criminals.For companies like Amazon and Microsoft, facial recognition is a big business. Amazon has worked hard to sell their facial recognition to police departments around the US. Microsoft sells tools that allow prisons to watch people inside.To work well, facial recognition programs must have a great number of pictures of people. But most people whose pictures are in the systems never gave permission (许可) for their pictures to be used.Many people worry that using computers to identify or track people will decrease freedom. Now, in many places, facial recognition is used to keep people under control and much of public life is watched on security cameras. Similarly, many cities in America and Europe are also almost completely covered by security cameras. Police officers now often wear cameras on their bodies, recording all the time. It’s usually not clear when governments are using facial recognition and how they are using it.Facial recognition is already being used at airports throughout Europe and in the US. The Department of Homeland Security expects to have picture of 97% of the people flying out of the country in the next four years.As these powerful computer programs become more common, San Francisco’s move to control facial recognition is an unusual and strong move to limit the way governments use computers to watch and control people.28.Why do people worry about facial recognition programs?A.They cannot multiply people’s responsibility.B.They cannot help the police identify good people.C.They will mistake innocent people for bad people.D.They will identify black people instead of white people.29.How can facial recognition programs function effectively?panies should work with each other.B.People should have more pictures taken.C.They should include as many pictures as possible.D.Police departments and prisons should be under control.30.What make people feel their freedom is on the decrease?A.There are the police everywhere.B. A lot of security cameras are used.C. More people are forced to stay at home.D. Governments focus more on facial recognition.31. What’s San Francisco’s attitude towards government workers using facial recognition?A. DisapprovingB. SupportiveC. DoubtfulD. Optimistic5.(8分)DMany people think of the brain as a mystery(神秘).They don’t know much about intelligence and how it works.When they think about what intelligence is, many people believe that a person is born either smart, average, or dumb(愚笨的)—and stays that way for life.But new research shows that the brain is more like a muscle — it changes and gets stronger when you use it.And scientists have been able to show just how the brain grows and gets stronger when you learn.Everyone knows that when you lift weights, your muscles get bigger and you get stronger.A person who can’t lift 20 pounds when they start exercising can get strong enough to lift 100 pounds after working out for a long time.That’s because the muscles become larger and stronger with exercise.And when you stop exercising, the muscles shrink(萎缩)and you get weaker.That’s why people say, “Use it or lose it!”But most people don’t know that when they practice and learn new things, parts of their brain change and get larger a lot like muscles do when they exercise.Inside the cortex (脑皮层)of the brain are billions of tiny nerve cells(神经细胞).Communication between these brain cells is what allows us to think and solve problems.When you learn new things, these tiny connections in the brain actually multiply and get stronger.The more you challenge your mind to learn, the more your brain cells grow.Then, things that you once found very hard or even impossible to do seem to become easy.The result is a stronger and smarter brain.Scientists started thinking that the human brain could develop and change when they studied animals’ brains.They found out that animals who lived in a challenging environment, with other animals and toys to play with, were more “aptitudinal”—they were better at solving problems and learning new things.32.What’s the main idea of the passage?A.Scientists show strong interest in what intelligence is.B.A new study shows the brain can be developed like a muscle.C.Both muscles and the brain are important to humans.D.Intelligence exists in both humans and animals.33.By using such numbers as 20 and 100 in Paragraph 2,the author tries to provethat .A.exercise plays an important role in keeping muscles strongerB.exercise is more important to people than most of the animalsC.everyone can keep healthy if they do enough exercisesD.everyone should learn as many new things as possible34.Like stronger muscles come from exercise, smarter brains need .A.to be well taken care of B.a good communication between personsC.help from scientists D.our learning new things35.What does the underlined word “aptitudinal” in the last paragraph probably mean? A.Strong B.Lovely C.Smart D.Active三、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分10分)6.(10分)How to manage your email inbox36 .We love it and we hate it. We need it and want it, but too often the price we pay is that.

Thank goodness!"School was over and I was tired. I sat at the front of the school bus.Janie, the driver, always tries to break the uncomfortable atmosphere by talking. I try to listen politely, but usually I’m too busy thinking about my day. On this day, however, her talk was worth listening to."My father ’s ill," she said to no one in particular. I could see worry in her eyes. I had never seen her like this before. She always meets students with a smile.With a sudden chance of interest, I asked, "What’s wrong with him?"With her eyes wet and her voice unusual, she answered, "Heart trouble. " Her eyes lowered as she continued, "I’ve already lost my mum, so I don ’tthink I can stand losing him." I couldn ’tanswer. My heart ached for her.I sat on the seat thinking of the great pain my own mother was thrown into when her father died.I saw how hard it was, and still is, for her. I wouldn’twant anyone to go through that.Suddenly I realized Janie wasn ’tonly a bus driver, which was just her job. She had a whole world of family and cares too.I shouldn ’thave been so selfish. I paid no attention to Janie because she was a bus driver. I had judged her by her job and brushed her off as unimportant.I shouldn ’thave been so selfish and self-centered.Understanding people is an art.60.When the students get on the school bus, Janie usually__________.A. listens to musicB. talks about her own worryC. sits on her seat without wordsD. meets them with a smile61.After she learned Janie’s story, the writer thought of__________.A. her father ’s deathB. her mother’s painC. the ache of her own heartD. the pain of Janie’s parents62.The writer felt herself selfish because she had__________.A. thought of Janie as nothing but a driverB. made only a few friends in the schoolC. hardly thought of herselfD. never listened to others63.In this passage the writer tries to tell us that__________.A.losing parents makes people sad and helplessB.understanding the people around us takes timeC.we should learn to understand the people around usD. it ’s not right to judge the people around us by their clothesCPerhaps a parent’s most important contribution toward raising a trustful child is to develop a relationshipfounded on trust. A child of any age will feel proud and grown-up if parents frequently show their trust. In courta defendant(被告 ) is innocent until proved guilty. But in the family, a teenager “ defendant is ”too often assumed guilty.Even when the child is caught in a complete lie, this should not be the end of trust. A parent can tell achild that a single lie is forgivable. Yet it should be clear that if lies continue, the child, like the boy who criedwolf, will suffer loss of trust.When my wife and I discovered that our son Tom, then 13, had lied about throwing a party while we were away, we grounded him for a month. We also told Tom that we could no longer trust him, and we could notallow him to stay alone overnight again. This loss of freedom was an important lesson; he learned how hard itis to live with people when they don ’ttrust him. As a result, now more than three years later we can againtrust Tom to stay alone overnight.Parents must always remember there is no easy answer to this universal problem of lying. We can set agood example, allow for privacy, monitor friendship, develop trust and punish wrong doing, but still wediscover our child has lied to us. Finally that’s why there is a need for trust on both sides of a parent-childrelationship. Lying destroys closeness and friendship. For that reason, parents should always try to give a childthe feeling that they can be trusted with the truth. Parents may start with a child’s trust, but as the child growsolder, parents must earn it.64. When the writer and his wife discovered that their son had lied, they _________.A . took him from all his freedomB . decided that they could never trust him againC. forbade him to stay alone overnight for more than three yearsD. arranged for him to live with people who do not trust him for more than three years65. We can infer from the passage that very often ________.A . parents don’ttrust their child as they shouldB . defendants are usually proved not guilty in courtC. parents have too much trust in their child D . some children are founded guilty in court66. According to the passage, the writer believes that _____________.A . parents shouldn ’tpunish their children even if they lieB . it is not easy to deal with the problem of lying as parentsC. there are many effective ways to prevent children from lyingD. a child will stop telling lies as he grows up67. What does the underlined word“ground”mean in the passage?A . To teach someone the basic things they should know in order to be able to do something.B . To stop a child going out with their friends as a punishment for behaving badly.C. To put someone on the ground and beat him.D. To ask someone to stay on the ground and not to move.DA typical Chinese Internet user is a young male who prefers instant messaging to e-mail, favors news,music and games sites and seldom makes online purchases(购物) .
