balance between my ambition and the expectation from my parents who were not rich...But what I feared most of myself at your age was not poverty,but failure.The fact that you are graduating from Harvard suggests that you know little about failure,you might be driven by a fear of failure quite as much as a desire for success.Steve Jobs,Stanford UniversitySometimes life’s going to hit you in the head with a brick.Don’of your life,and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work,and the only way to do great work is to love what you do.If you haven’t found it

deaths could be avoided according to the scientists.For the health of the planet,they say the same diet will reduce (减少) greenhouse gases and save more land,water and animals.This new food plan is the result of a three-year project organized by The Lancet health journal.Tim Lang,a professor at Britain’s University of London.He said,“The food we eat and how we produce it decide the health of people and the planet.”Lang added,“The world’s population is expected to grow to 10 billion people by 2050.If we want to feed everyone,we all need to change what we eat and the way we eat by improving food production and reducing food waste.”So,what do you eat on the “planetary health”diet?The scientists who created the “planetary health”diet say it is largely plant-based but still has a little milk,fish and meat.The diet calls for cutting down red meat and sugar by 50 percent and increasing nuts,fruits,and vegetable.Walter Willet of Harvard University in the United States also talked about the “planetary health”diet.He said,“More than 800 million people around the world do not get enough food while many more people have very unhealthy diets.”The scientists think it difficult to reach their aim.But for them,doing nothing is also not a choice.Willet said,“If we can’t make the best diet,it’s better to try and get as close as we can.”12.What decides the health of people and the planet according to Tim Lang?A.The taste of the food.B.The number of population.C.The climate and our living conditions.D.The food we eat and the way we produce it.13.What does the “planetary health”diet

If you have a wish to be personally connected to the charity or organization where you are giving your time and money, here are some volunteer opportunities.★WatsiFounded by Chase Adams after a bus ride in Costa Rica in 2011, Wastsi is a digitally focused heath nonprofit for young adults.Watsi offers real-time tracking of where money donated goes, from basic medical services to surgeries.★Pencils of PromisePencils of Promise was founded by Adam Braun in October 2008. It is an on-profit organization that puts all of its time and funds into education in the developing world. Pencils of Promise encourages their donors to connect with others to increase donation. All the donation will be used to build schools, provide supplies and train teachers in poor and under educated countries.★Project LinusEverywhere you see young men and women knitting and crocheting(钩). They are using those skills to make blankets for children in need. Founded in 1995, in Denver, Colorado, Project Linus is an non-profit organization. Its goal is to provide warmth and safety through blankets to children across the nation in need.The organization is now led by Carol Babbit with the headquarters in Normal, IL.★Girls on the RunGirls on the Run was set up in1996 in Charlotte, North Carolina, with a team of 13 brave girls. Program founder Molly Barker struggled in her own life, and came to realize that a running program gave her “respect for my body and all t he things it can do”. Girls on the Run is a volunteer opportunity for teaching young girls about the benefits of running.1.Which organization has existed for about 9 years?A.Watsi.B.Pencils of Promise.C.Project Linus.D.Girls on the Run.2.How does Pencils of Promise help the world?A.It sells pencils to poor students.B.It focuses on children's health.C.It provides social media for poor kids.D.It helps increase educational opportunities.3.Which is right about Project Linus?A.It was set up by Carol Babbit.B.Its goal is to teach children how to knit.C.It supplies blankets to kids in need.D.It's an all-female organization.4.Who set up Girls on the Run?A.Chase Adams.B.Molly Barker.C.Carol BabbitD.Adam BraunBFor centuries, people have moved to and lived in cities. These urban centres are places to find work, friends and fun. It's no surprise that they continue to grow as more and more people flood in hoping to make the most of the chances they offer but adding to the congestion and pollution that already exist.According to a report by the United Nations, 54 percent of the world's population lives in urban areas and it predicts that by 2050,this figure will have increased to around 70 percent. But as more and morepeople move from the countryside to the city to get better chances, they can end up with nowhere to live.This is true in places such as Rio de Janeiro, where the people from the countryside can't rent or buy a home,and they end up building their own communities and houses on unoccupied land. These are called shanty towns— poor communities where the houses are built out of cheap materials—and often don't have any electricity or water supply.These are, of course, not the future cities we want to see. Some serious urban planning is needed to make our cities of the future good, safe and modern places to live in. This involves improving the housing conditions, the chances for education and employment and so on.Something urban planners are looking at now is th e creation of“smart cities”. According to John Rossant, founder and chairman of the non-profit organisation New Cities Foundation, technology is the way forward. He thinks that it's generally accepted that “cloud computing, ubiquitous Internet, robust 5G networks etc, will change our cities”. He says technology is really “a game changer” in urbanization (城市化). It would collect large amounts of data about how a city is working and may improve how a city functions.5.Why will a larger population be living in a city by 2050?A.Because the government encourages the development of cities.B.Because more people will have more children.C.Because the countryside will disappear.D.Because more people will move into the city to get more good opportunities6.What can we know about shanty towns?A.They have good quality housing built for poor people.B.They are filled with people living under poverty.C.They are built by the government.D.They are developed and modern.7.What name is given to a city that uses technology to help it function properly?A.Traditional cities.B.Future cities.C.Smart cities.D.Developing citiesC.Breathing dirty air can cost someone's life span(寿命) months一even years, a new study finds.Worldwide, air pollution lowers average life spans by a year. Scientists shared their new findings in Environmental Science & Technology Letters.Air pollution has been linked to many health problems.Most earlier studies has looked at how tiny air pollutants affected rates of illness or death. But now an environmental scientist, Joshua Apte, is going even further. He works at the University of Texas, Austin. He together with his team is looking at life expectancy, hoping to make the threat easier to understand.PM 2.5 is what scientists call tiny particles of pollution in the air. Higher levels of PM 2. 5 can cause health problems and cut months,if not years, from the average lifespan. This analysis show show pollution affects life expectancy in different parts of the world.The World Health Organization(WHO) recommends limiting PM 2.5 to 10 micrograms(微克) per cubic (立方)meter of air. Apte's group used data to try to find how this low level would help people. But meeting the WHO standard won't get rid of health damage from dirty air.That's because even below 10 micrograms per cubic meter pollution still causes huge risks.Reducing air pollution could increase life expectancy. The scientists also compared how other threats shorten life spans across the globe. These risk factors included smoking and cancer.These results show that in poor countries, cleaning up dirty air could greatly increase life spans. It could have as big an effect as cleaning up drinking water, or curing lung cancer. However, in wealthier countries air pollution shortens life expectancy by less than half a year. All forms of cancer, in fact, shorten the average life expectancy by more than 3.5 years.“Knowing this can really help people, or policymakers, decide where to spend their money,” says Kirk Smith.8.What is Joshua Apte's team trying to do?A.Let people understand air pollution better.B.Know how small air pollutants are.C.Study the life expectancy of different people.D.Study many different healthy problems.9.What will happen if one country limits PM 2.5 to 10 micrograms per cube meters?A.Its people will live a healthy life.B.Its air is very clean.C.It will get a prize from WHO.D.It still has pollution risks.10.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Cancer is the leading killer in all kinds of diseases.B.It's very hard to clean up dirty air in a short time.C.The study will help different countries take different policies.D.Reducing air pollution can increase all people's lifespans much.11.What can be the best title for the text?A.The Effect of Cancer Is Worse than Dirty AirB.Air Pollution Is Shortening Lives WorldwideC.Many Factors Are Affecting People's Healthernments Are Trying to Make Life Span LongDOnce when I was facing a decision that involved high risk, I went to a friend. He looked at me for a moment, and then wrote a sentence containing the best advice I’ve ever had: Be bold and brave––and mighty (强大的) forces will come to your aid.Those words made me see clearly that when I had fallen short in the past, it was seldom because I had tried and failed. It was usually because I had let fear of failure stop me from trying at all. On the other hand,whenever I had plunged into deep water, forced by courage or circumstance, I had always been able to swim until I got my feet on the ground again.Boldness means a decision to bite off more than you can eat. And there is nothing mysterious about the mighty forces. They are potential powers we possess: energy, skill, sound judgment, creative ideas––even physical strength greater than most of us realize.Admittedly, those mighty forces are spiritual ones. But they are more important than physical ones. A college classmate of mine, Tim, was an excellent football player, even though he weighed much less than the average player. “In on e game I suddenly found myself confronting a huge player, who had nothing but me between him and our goal line,” said Tim. “I was so frightened that I closed my eyes and desperately threw myself at that guy like a bullet––and stopped him cold.”Boldness––a willingness to extend your self to the extreme—is not one that can be acquired overnight. But it can be taught to children and developed in adults. Confidence builds up. Surely, there will be setbacks (挫折) and disappointments in life; boldness in itself is no guarantee of success. But the person who tries to do something and fails is a lot better off than the person who tries to do nothing and succeeds.So, always try to live a little bit beyond your abilities—and you’ll find your abilities are gre ater than you ever dreamed.12. Why was the author sometimes unable to reach his goal in the past?A. Fear prevented him from trying.B. He lacked mighty forces.C.He faced huge risks.D. Failure blocked his way to success.13. What is the implied meaning of the underlined part in Paragraph 3?A. Swallow more than you can digest.B. Act slightly above your abilities.C. Develop more mysterious powers.D.Learn to make creative decisions.14. What was especially important for Tim’s successful defense in the football game?A. His physical strength.B. His basic skill.C. His spiritual force.D. His real fear.15. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?A.To recommend people to develop more abilities.B.To advise people to build up physical power.C. To tell people the ways to guarantee success.D. To encourage people to be courageous第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

请将答案涂在答题卡上 AOne day a rich boy bought a magic mirror (镜子). When he got home, he looked in the mirror. His face looked sad. He tried to smile and make funny faces, his face looked still sad. Then he did many happy things, but his face always looked sad."Oh, what a terrible mirror! It doesn't work! " he said angrily.The next day on his way to buy some chocolate, he saw a little girl crying sadly. The rich boy went up to her and asked what had happened. The little girl said she couldn't find her parents. "Don't worry. I'll help you," the rich boy said. So they went to look for them together. Finally they found her parents. They were so thankful for his help. After the rich boy arrived home, he looked in the mirror as usual. To his surprise, his face looked very happy. The boy understood the magic of the mirror. The mirror could show the true feelings of its owner. This was true-the rich boy had helped that little girl so he felt really happy.1.The boy's face always looked _______ in the mirror on the first day.A. happyB. sadC. terribleD. funny2. Finally the rich boy _______.A. lost his parentsB. bought a new mirrorC. helped the little girl find her parentsD. bought a mirror for the little girl3. From the story we know the boy was _______.A. braveB. foolishC. cleverD. helpfulBWe chat (微信)is popular among us, but if someone deletes you or blocks(屏蔽)you on it,does it mean you've made him or her angry? The reasons might be different.One reason may be that you have just left messages too often without much valuable information. For example, the questions are those like 'how are you? ' 'what are you doing? ' 'do you love me?' too often. You know, people may feel bored after answering such kinds of questions time after time.Another possible reason may be that you've sent something unpleasant to your friend or in your friend circle. I just blocked one of my middle school classmates yesterday because she was trying to sell fake goods in the friend circle, and I hate it quite much.Finally, Some people delete the one's name from friends' list because they no longer want to see it and they don't want you to see their“ Moments” (动态)on WeChat .Maybe they publish very private pictures or life or thoughts they don't want to share with you.So why you are blocked may depend on his or her mood or preference (喜好), and the reasons why a person gets blocked are various from person to person. So I suggest you to write an email or make a phone call to that person if he or she really means a lot to you to see why he or she is dissatisfied with you ,and to find out how you can make up for the case.4 .From paragraph 2, we can know if you are blocked that is because ______.A . you are asking too many boring questionsB . your friend is angryC . your friend like answering questionsD . your friend is busy.5.

But did you know the camel was native first to North America? 40,000, 000 years ago, the camel probably got to Africa by migrating to South America. This was a large land mass that broke in two. The easterm part we now call Africa. The journey took millions of years.Camels stand six to seven feet tall and weigh up to 1, 600 pounds. They have long, strong legs and powerful muscles. A camel can carry as much as a thousand pounds for a short distance. But for a long distance, its typical load is about 400 pounds.When a camel walks or runs, both legs on one side of its body move forward at the same time. Then the legs on the other side swing forward. This leg action makes for a rocking motion. Some riders get “seasick”. This may be part of the reason why camels are sometimes called “ships of the desert”.A camels back is broad. It is too broad to let both of the rider’s feet hang down. There is no use for stirrups(马镫).Well, as for your hands, you can hold the reins (缰绳) gently. Once y ouget used to the camels constant rocking motion, though, you can almost fall asleep.12.What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. Camels migrated to Africa 1, 600 years ago.B. The Sahara Desert is located in South Africa.C. Camels were native to North America 40 million years ago.D. Africa and North America once belonged to one continent.13. What do we know about camels?A. They weigh 1,600 kilograms.B. They are six to seven feet tall.C. They have short, strong legs.D. They can carry 1,000 pounds for a long journey.14. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?A. Stirrups are used to help the camel ridersB. Camels have a wider back than horsesC. People get “seasick” because camels are the “ships of the desert”.D. The camels rocking motion is caused by its long leg action.15. The author wrote the text mainly to________.A introduce B. argue C. compare D. entertain第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

英语试题第Ⅰ卷第一部分:听力(略)第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40 分)第一节(共15 小题;每小题2 分,满分30 分)AHilton English Language CenterInformation for New StudentsClass time: 8:30 a.m.-10:00 a.m., 10:30 a.m.-12:00 a.m., 1:30 p.m.-3:00 p.m.The Language Center is open Monday to F r iday. Each class has one afternoon free per week. O n the first day, go to the lecture hall to check your timetable.Self-access (自习): The language laboratory (Room 1110) is open Monday to Friday from 3:15 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. for all full- t ime students.Y ou can learn how to use computers for language games. There are tapes for students to borrow to practice their English. Go in and ask the teacher to show you. If you p l an to take public examinations, there are listening comprehension tapes for you to practice with. There are other kinds of exercises on the computers. Ask your class teacher for a list of past exam essays. Students can borrow tapes to take home but they must be returned after two days.Attendance (出勤): All students are expected to attend classes as it is required. Students who do not attend classes will be reported to OSS. Eighty percent attendance is required for students to receive their certificates (证书) when they finish their courses.Books: If students are given course books, the books are their responsibility. If a book is lost, the student will be expected to pay for it. If students wish to buy books, there is a bookshop in the college specializing in English books (Room 3520).21.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. No teachers are in the language lab.B. Books can’t be taken out of the center.C. 90% attendance is required for the students.D. Students can prepare for exams by listening to tapes.22.Timetable can be seen in .A. the lecture hallB. Room 3520C. the classroomD. Room 111023.Where can students buy books?A. Room 1110.B. Room 3520.C. The language lab.D. OSS.BWhen we do some t hing, we all have our own plans. Some people are born planners.I can’t claim (宣称) to be one of that kind of people. Most of the time, I try to at least expect what might go wrong. I have taken to making lists and, although I’m not yet achieving perfection, I usually manage to achieve goals. But there are times when even the best plans do not succeed. All that is left then is to smile and to make or do something using whatever is found.Hanukkah (光明节) came early this year, perhaps too soon after Thanksgiving to allow us to prepare well. During the first night of Hanukkah, the Hanukkah candles were nowhere to be found in the entire Dallas area where we lived. Birthday candles wouldn’t work! The tall long thin candle fell in small drops.“What would our ancestors do?” I thought.“What shall I do now? That’s where inge n uity comes from. Don’t be nervous and worried. Never let missing candles spoil a family celebration.”Later what we did find was a bag of tea lights.The long, silver bread tray became the base for our tea lights. The younger ones were wide-eyed and happy as Grandpa lit the first tea light and all recited the blessing. We sat at the dining table, happy to be together and the food was plentiful.No matter how imperfect it is, the fact that families gather to share a special event, an event that has held meaning for so many generations of families, is the meaning itself and forms the important part of the observance (仪式). What we need to remember, and to carry with us, is the knowledge that togetherness is much better than all other concerns.24.How does the author feel about perfect planning according to Paragraph 1?A. It should be an aim when we are doing things.B. It is well worth considering carefully.C. It often takes too much great effort.D. It plays an important part in our daily life.25.From the passage, what can we infer?A. We should know well about our limited weaknesses.B. We should make the most of the available resources.C. We should get well prepared for the coming festival.D. We should feel confident about our own abilities.26.What does the underlined word “ingenuity” in the second paragraph mean?A. courage.B. curiosity.C. custom.D. creativity.27.What does the author think highly of?A. Personal abilities.B. Personal experience.C. Family reunion.D. Cultural difference.CActor Warwick Davis realized he was shorter than other people when he was eight years old. He suddenly noticed all his schoolmates were twice his size. It was then that the effect of having dwarfism hit him for the first time.Now aged 48, Davis says, “I have very fond memories of school but I realized I had to become a little bit louder and funnier so I wouldn’t get left out of conversations. I became quite the performer, so being short was my training in acting.”It worked. Director George Lucas cast young Warwick as the Ewok Wicket in Return of the Jedi. The actor has gone on to star in many TV shows and films, including playing Professor F l itwick in the Harry Potter films.Warwick’s dwarfism means he is 1.07 meters tall, while the average UK adult male height is 1.78 meters. Most types of dwarfism are caused by a genetic disorder that stops some of the body’s building blocks working properly.Davis has a positive attitude to being “different”. He says, “If I had my life all over again, I would c h oose the same job and be the same height. I have enjoyed every minute. At school I played rugby and football and tried long jump and high jump. I wasn’t very good at them but I always had a go. I defeated everyone at chin- ups (引体向上) because I had a low body weight combined with a strong upper body from climbing up to the top cupboards to reach the biscuit boxes at home.”Warwick is supporting Jeans for Genes Day, a charity raising public concern for millions of children born with genetic disorders in the U.K. He says, “Even if you can only give a tiny amount of money, it will make such a difference to the children.”28. Why did Warwick Davis decide to become a little bit louder and funnier?A. It was his training in his acting.B. He didn’t want to be ignored by his classmates.C. The effect of having dwarfism influenced him strongly.D. The genetic disorder prevented his body from working properly.29. What can be inferred from paragraph 5?A. Davis has a positive attitude to being “different”.B. Davis turns his short body to his advantage at chin- u ps.C. Davis is not fond of rugby and football, long jump and high jump.D. Davis doesn’t want to choose the same job if he can live his life again.30. Warwick Davis can be best descr i bed as “”.A. pleasedB. generousC. sensitiveD. confident31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. My Strong Upper BodyB. Dwarfism Caused by Genetic DisorderC. Height Is Not My LimitationD. More Money, Bigger DifferenceDLocated at Europe’s biggest water park, the Galaxy Erding in South Germany, the world’s first VR water slide takes the exciting experience to a whole new level by offering thrill- seekers the choice of three attractive worlds --- Space, Sky, or S n ow. By simply wearing a headset, riders can slide through a magical alien world, follow beautiful butterflies around floating islands or put themselves in a white winter wonderland. To make the experience even more heart-stopping, the 160-meter- long ride that lasts about 35 seconds has two uphill tracks that provide a roller-coaster- l ike experience.While the tire slide, which has been successfully tested by almost 10,000 park goers since it opened in February 2018, is impressive, the techno logy behind it, developed by California startup Ballast is even more so. The specially-created waterproof headsets can be worn in water up to a few meters deep, without harming the delicate Samsung Galaxy S8 mobile devices that run the custom software for the VR experiences. The headsets also charge wirelessly (无线地), allowing park operators to swap out sets throughout the day.The biggest challenge the company faced, however, was providing a suitable VR experience for everyone. That’s because unlike roller coasters, where the speed is fixed for all riders, water slide speeds vary depending on the weight of the person. To overcome the issue, Ballast fixed smart sensors (传感器) in important areas along the slide to keep track of the rider’s progress at all times. The information, conveyed through the headset, allows the custom software to adjust his or her location within the virtual world accordingly, making for a smooth, seasickness free ride for all.Though Ballast is thrilled at Space Glider’s success, the company has bigger ambitions. They want to create an experience where guests will be able to swim underwater surrounded by virtual dolphins, whales, and even sharks, without wearing the heavy headsets!32. What can people do if they go to the Galaxy Erding?A. They can swim with dolphins.B. They can explore the outer space.C. They can experience VR water slide.D. They can swap out sets all day long.33. Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?A. The tire slide has been successfully tested so far.B. Water slide speed vary depending on the age of the person.C. Thrill-seekers take the exciting experience by wearing a headset.D.The specially-created waterproof headsets can be applied in water.34. What can help park goers experience a smooth, seasickness free ride?A. The painkillers.B. The fixed speed.C. A sensor fixed in important areas.D. Virtual dolphins, whales and sharks.35. What is the author ’s attitude towards the VR water slide?A. objectiveB. subjectiveC. opposedD. indifferent 第二节(共5 小题;每小题2 分,满分10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

However, if you’re willing to leave your country and explore life in other areas, there are many countries boasting an extremely cheap and low cost of living. Check out the following countries when planning your next move.EcuadorEcuador is similar to the United States in many ways, and as a result has become a popular American getaway. They even use the U. S. Dollar for their currency. In this count ry, it’s cheaper to eat out every day than cook for yourself on a budget in the U. S. You can even buy a building for around $50,000 and hire someone to look after it while you’re away.MexicoAlthough the country is known for its poverty ridden streets, there are many wealthier areas that provide every facility you might need. You can live off a mere $700 to $800 a month in Mexico, and this includes rent for a nice place, facilities, food, and any sightseeing.ArgentinaArgentina has been a popular tourist destination for many years. It has great restaurants, a rich history, and many places to explore. Not to mention, it’s not very expensive to live here. A decent sized home can cost around $139,000, which is relatively cheap in relation to homes in the United States.VietnamVietnam has also become a popular tourist destination in recent years. There are manymillion-dollar luxury homes by the beach, but you can find a modest flat or a small home for around $25,000 to $50,000 if you search in the right areas.1. How much does it cost to live in Mexico for a year?A. About $12,000.B. About $7,000.C. About $8,000.D. About $8,800. 2. What do Argentina and Vietnam have in common?A. They both have great restaurants.B. The cost of living in them is both expensive.C. Tourists enjoy travelling in the two countries.D. The middle-sized homes both cost around $139,000.3 In which country is the U.S Dollar used for its currency?A. Ecuador.B. Mexico.C. Argentina.D. Vietnam.BTests,after-school activities and problems at home can increase stress for students. But research now suggests that the main reason for the students’ rising anxiety levels is something else.A psychology professor Jean Twenge said,“What a lot of teens told me is that using social media and their phones seems forced. This use of phones has led to a loss of sleep and face-to-face interactions.” Last year,in the journal Pediatrics three researchers wrote that too much social media use might contribute to the development of mental health problems in teenagers,such as loneliness,depressive symptoms and anxiety.Researchers are still not sure whether phones cause student depression or depression causes phone use. Yet 70 percent of teens see anxiety and depression as major problems among their peers,according to a February Pew Research Center report.Schools are starting to take steps to deal with the problem. Many public schools pay outside companies to watch students’ social media activity for signs of pain. Some school s have organized some events in which people do not use their electronic devices. Belfast Area High School in Maine had one such event in April. About 20 percent of students and school employees took part,demonstrating the influence that the technology has on their daily life.Emily Mogavero,a 17-year-old student in New York,said,“I definitely feel stressed to keep up my information and stuff. It kind of worries me that I’m on my smart phone so long.” Mogavero said she sometimes puts her phone out of reach or powers it down so she doesn’t hear anything.Some parents are not letting their children get smart phones until they grow up. A teacher,Erin Schifferli,says her 12-year-old daughter,Aeva,won’t get a phone until she is 16 years old. Deirdre Birmingham of Montclair signed on a campaign called “Wait Until Eighteen” because she didn’t think her video game-loving 10-year-old son was ready for a smart phone.4.What’s the main cause of teenagers’ mental problems according to the text?A.Too many activities.B.Being lacking in enough sleep.C.Too much homework.D.Being addicted to social media.5.How can parents deal with the children’s problem?A.Help their children grow up quickly.B.Stop their children using smart phones.C.Pay more attention to children’s study.D.Sign on more campaigns to make a difference.6.What can we learn from the text?A.Almost all the students liked the schools’ activities.B.70 percent of people have anxiety and depression.C.Over­using phones influences teens’ social interactions.D.The findings of the research are very definite.CAs much as seventy years ago, in the city of Boston, there lived a small girl who had the naughty habit of running away.Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Alcott, from first to last, had had a good many frights about this flyaway Louisa. Once when she was only two years old, they were traveling with her on a steamboat, and she darted away, in some moment when no one was noticing her, and crawled into theengine-room to watch the machinery. Of course, her clothes were all grease and dirt, and she might have been caught in the machinery and hurt.Except for this one fault, Louisa was a good child, so she felt much ashamed that she had caused her mother, whom she loved dearly, so much worry. She made up her mind that she would never frighten her so again. No-she would cure herself of the running-away habit!After that, whenever she felt the least desire to slip out of the house without asking permission, she would hurry to her own little room and shut the door tight. To keep her mind from bad plans she would shut her eyes and make up stories-think them all out, hers, you know. Then, when some of them seemed pretty good, she would write them down so that she would not forget them. By and by she found she liked making stories better than anything she had ever done in her lifeHer mother sometimes wondered why Louisa grew so fond of staying in her little chamber the head of the stairs, all of a sudden, but was pleased that the runaway child had changed into such a quiet, like-to-stay-at-home girl.It was a long time before Louisa dared to mention the stories and rhymes. she had hidden in her desk but finally she told her mother about them, and when Mrs. Alcott had read them, she advised her to keep on writing. Louisa did so and became one of the best American story-tellers. She wrote a number of books, and if you begin with Lulu's Library, you will want to read Little Men and Little Women and all the books that dear Louisa Alcott ever wrote7. What does the underlined word “darted away” in paragraph 2 mean?A. disappearB. left quicklyC. lost herselfD. hid herself8. Why did Louisa crawl into the engine room?A. Because she wanted to watch the machinery.B. Because she wanted to make her parents frightenedC. Because she liked to make Jokes.D. Because otherwise, she might have been hurt.9. How did Louisa cure herself of running-away habit?A. She asked permission before going out of the houseB. She found making stories more interesting and gave up her run-away plan at once.C. Her mother made her enter her own room and shut the door tight.D. She made up stories and then wrote them down10. Which of the following can best describe Louisa?A. Caring.B. AmbitiousC. Strong-minded.D. Demanding.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

His father lost his job five years ago and his mother is often ill. And he has two brothers and a sister. He works hard and tries his best to buy enough food for his family.Last month his family had to move to an old house outside the city. It's farther from the post office and he has to get up early in the morning in order to catch the 6:30 train. The head of his office is strict and everybody has to get there on time. He knows what it'll mean if he's late. A friend of his had pity on(同情) him and lent his old car to him. The young man was happy and from then on he could go to work by car.Last Saturday Charlie went to buy some medicine for his mother. Bad luck! When he came out of the shop, he couldn't find the car. He was quite worried and began to look for it in front of the shop but he didn't find it. Suddenly he saw a woman parked a car there and hurried into theshop. Charlie saw the car wasn't locked. He got on it and drove it at once. He was afraid the loser would run after him and drove fast. A truck hit it at a crossing and he lost consciousness.This morning the young man came back to life and saw there were a few policemen standing by his bed. He asked, "Where am I?""In Room 103.""In hospital or in prison ?"21.There're ________ people in Charlie's family.A. fourB. fiveC. sixD. seven22.Charlie's family moved to the old house outside the city because _______.A. it's very quiet thereB. they hoped to save some moneyC. he could get to his office by trainD. his father had found a job there23.Charlie has to get to his office on time because ___________.A. the head is strict with themB. he wishes to be praisedC. he's usually on dutyD. he's afraid to be fired24.Charlie was afraid ________, so he drove fast.A. to be lateB. to meet the red lightsC. to be caught by the loserD. to miss the 6:30 trainBHow often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition , life is always presenting new things to the child -things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known . But a child has his parents. He is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things or being punished for what he has done wrong. When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.25.According to the second paragraph, the writer thinks that ________.A. life for a child is comparatively easyB. a child is always loved whatever he doesC. If much is given to a child, he must do something in returnD. only children are interested in life26.After a child grows up, he _________.A. will have little time playingB. has to be successful in finding a jobC. can still ask for help in time of troubleD. should be able to take care of himself27.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. People are often satisfied with their life.B. Life is less interesting for old people.C. Adults are free to do what they want to do.D. Adults should no longer rely on others.28..The main idea of the passage is ________.A. life is not enjoyable since each age has some painsB. young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hardC. childhood is the most enjoyable time in one's lifeD. one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his lifeCDriving a car at a high speed along a highway seems to be fun. You only need to follow the bright traffic signs beside the highway and it will take you where you wish to go.But to a London taxi driver, driving is not an easy job. A taxi driver needs to have not only good driving skills but also a good knowledge of the city of London, from the loneliest street to the popular restaurant around. He has to be at the service of all kinds of passengers (乘客) at all times.A London taxi driver said the following about his job.During the night it is usual for him to stop two or three times for some food. He said, “I never drink when I’m working, otherwise I’d lose my license (驾驶执照).”He normally goes home between two and three o’clock in the morning. There are times he has to stay longer and try to make more runs. He said, “That’s the worst thing about working for yourself. If you don’t make money, no one is going to give it to you. ”London taxi drivers not only “take” but also “give”. Every summer hundreds of poor children from London go for a day at the sea ― by taxi! There rides are paid by the taxi drivers. At the sea, they are met by the mayor (市长) , and a lunch party is also held for the taxi drivers and the children. After a happy day’s running around the beaches and visiting the market there, the children go home again by taxi, free of charge of course!29. London taxi drivers try to make more runs sometimes mainly because __________.A. they make a living by drivingB. they prefer to work for themselvesC. they want to help more passengersD. they are used to working deep into the night30. How do London taxi drivers “give”?A. They give the poor children a lunch party at he sea each summer.B. They give poor children the chance to meet the maor.C.
