and caught many people's eyes．The 3﹣D pavement art festival was an important part of the Dubai Canvas Festival．The Dubai Canvas Festival celebrates art and culture with different themes each

child's work with the teachers at a parent﹣meeting．If kids are not working hard，they may find themselves told off after a parents'meeting!If a kid is trying hard，but has a problem，the parents and the teachers try to work out a way to help．But parent﹣meetings can be held only once or twice a semester（学期）．"It's really a hard job，"a headmaster explained when some parents asked．"We have done our best．"In Britain，schools are governed by boards of governors（理事会）．Such boards will include the school head teacher，teachers，parents of students and other people from the community．Having parents'evenings is really important part of the community．At a parents'evening，teachers might be too careful to give parents bad news directly．According to a survey of 2，000primary school parents in the UK，55% felt parents'evenings did not really tell them how their child wasprogressing．"Parents'evenings all too often end with parents having no clear idea of how their children are doing at school，"says the survey，"and the average time spent with a teacher was 13minutes．Such a rushed conversation did nothing at all．"It suggests that too often the experience of parents'evenings can be busy parents arriving for a rushed meeting in which parents are left unsure about their children's school work．72．How often can a parent﹣meeting be held in China according to the passage？A．Once or twice a season．B．Once or twice a month．C．Once or twice a year．D．Once or twice a semester．73．Whom don't British school boards of governors include？A．The

And the most exciting thing wasthat I could see my favorite basketball player ， Dwight Edwards ， inperson． I was holding his photo in my hand all the time ． Throughoutthe game Dwight made one fantastic play afteranother． With 3 seconds left in the game ， he scored the winningbasket for his team! After the television reporter finished interviewingDwight ， Mom and I walked toward him ．"Umm Mr ．Mr ．Edwards？I'm Keysha，and I think you're amazing ．" My heart was beating fast． But I collected my courage and asked ， "Would you please sign my photo ？ " "Sure ，Keysha． Thanks for coming today ． " Dwight smiled as he signed the photo and then shook my hand ． I thanked him ．As Mom guided my steps toward the exit ， I watched Dwight until he disappeared into the locker room ． When I turned around， I noticed a little boy holding a piece of paper and a pen and crying ． "It's OK ，son，" his father said．"We'll meet Dwight Edwards some othertime ．" I looked at Dwight Edwards' signature and thought about how great it was to meethim ． Then I thought about how kind Mom ‘ s boss was for giving us the tickets to allow me to have this experience．I handed Dwight's photo to the boy ． "Here ，I want you to have this，" I said ． The boy's eyes widened ． "Dwight's autograph （亲笔署名）？ Wow !" he exclaimed ． "Thank you!" "No problem ， " I replied ．"Keysha ， that was very thoughtful of you ，" Mom said ． "I know how much that autograph meant to you． "I smiled at her． "I got to see Dwight Edwards play an amazing game ． Then I got to meet him and shake his hand． I won't need an autograph to remember this day ． "24.What was the most exciting thing for Keysha ？ ______A.Having a seat in the front row ．B.Watching a professional basketball game ．C.Getting a free ticket for a basketball game ．A.

Sad．26.Keysha gave the autograph to the boy because ______ ．A.the boy's father asked her for itB.the autograph meant little to herC.she would like to make the boy happyD.she would meet Dwight some other timeCToo many people think that intelligence is a gift of nature and that there is little anyone can do to improve theirs ． IQ tests have managed to confuse many of us， leading us to believe that intelligence is largely fixed ．It is not ． Just like swimming ， cooking ， dancing， and many other things， being smart is a skill that requires training ． I discovered some of the most important tools to be smart when I watched my professors for years to learn how to do useful research ． Now I will share them with you ．Practice self-critical thinkingCritical thinking is the act of questioning the arguments that are put before us ． It is a valuable skill--without it ， we are too willing to believe what other people say and easily get influenced ． The problem is that we usually only apply （应用） critical thinking to other people's ideas． When we apply critical thinking to our own ideas ？ its power reaches a whole new level ． I call this self-critical thinking ． If you practice self-critical thinking ， you will find imperfection in your arguments before anyone else and you can come up with a better idea． By practicing self-critical thinking，your mind will surprise you．Be persistentSmart and successful people don't give up ． They believe that they can do it ？ so they spend months ？ even years trying until finally something works out ． You might know that Thomas Edison failed thousands of times before he succeeded ． Actually ， almost all scientists experience failure regularly ． So if you want to be smart ， be persistent．Learn to present your ideasYou may have your good ideas ， but if you don't sell your ideas ，no one will recognize their worth and consider you smart ． So you need to learn how to present your ideas ． Pronounce clearly ，express your thoughts properly，and most importantly ， let your enthusiasm（热忱）about your ideas shine through． Enthusiasm spreads quickly． When you have something to say，say it well ． Selling your ideas is not only good for your reputation （名誉）， others can also benefit from your message ．Finally ？ you must also believe in yourself ． Those who appear smarter than you simply have used the right tools to exercise their minds ． You are smarter than you think ．27. When we practice self-critical thinking？we ______．A.are very likely to doubt other people's ideasB.are willing to believe and accept other people's ideasC.can easily come up with better ideas than other peopleD.can find weak points in our own ideas before other people28.What can we learn from the passage？ ______A. Too many people think they can improve their intelligence．B.Scientists can succeed much more easily than normal people ．C.Pronouncing clearly is the most important skill to express ideas ．A.How to be smart ．C. How to be successful．B. How to argue forcefully．D.How to do useful research ．DI ask every student I interview for admission（获准入学）to my college the same question ，"What do you look forward to the most in college ？ " I was surprised and pleased recently when a student replied， "I look forward to the possibility of failure．" This is not how most students answer the question when sitting before the person who can make decisions about their academic （学术） futures， but this young man took a risk ． "My parents have never let me fail ，" he said． "When I want to take a risk at something ，they remind me it's not safe． They think taking a hard course or trying a challenging activity will destroy my college admission ． " This is not an uncommon story ． Kids all over the world are under great pressure to beperfect ． So it's hard to find imperfection in a college application （申请）． Students try their best to hide negative things and only tell us impressive things ． But perfection doesn't exist （存在），and we don't expect to see it． In fact ， admission officers are likely to be skeptical of students who present themselves as persons without weaknesses．We want to find out who students really are outside of their medals and test scores ． We get excited when we read an application that seems real ． If their viewpoints are about lessons learned or challenges overcome ， these applicants are likely to jump to the top ． We believe a mistake in high school should not define（定义） the rest of your life ，but how you react could shape you forever ．Teenagers will never be perfect ． They do silly things ， mess up and fall down． The ability to bounce （反弹） back is a basic life skill students have to learn on their own ． The lessons of failure can't be taught in a classroom； they are experienced and reflected upon． During my interviews ， another student told me， "I'm ashamed that I failed my math class ， but I took it again and got a B-plus ． "From the experience I learned to let go of shame ， " he said． "I realized that I can't let a grade define my success ． "I smiled ． This kid will do well and be successful in my college ． He has the skills to face challenges． Failure is about growth ， learning ，overcoming ，and moving on ． Let's allow young people to fail ． Not only will they learn something ，it might even get them intocollege ． 30. The writer tells the story of the student in Paragraph 1to show that ______ ．A.many kids are usually told to avoid taking risksB.some students like to behave in an unusual wayC.some students feel uncertain about their college lifeD.many kids and their parents often have different opinions31.What does the phrase "b e skeptical of" probably mean ？ ______A.

Which of the following would be the best title for the passage？______A.Want to Succeed？ Work HardB.Want to Be Perfect ？ Do Your Best四、任务型阅读-简答（本大题共 1 小题，共10.0 分）34.阅读短文，依据短文内容回答下列问题．Most cars get their energy from petrol（汽油），But somecars use electricity ． They get their power from largebatteries（电池），There are also some cars that haveboth an electric motor and a petrol motor ． They are calledhybrid cars ．Most people think of electric cars as a new invention ？ but they have been around for a long time ． In the late 19 th and early 20 th centuries electric cars were popular because thetechnology for petrol engines was not highly developed ． But when the petrol enginesbecame easier to make and more powerful，they became more popular．Interest in electric cars was high in the 1970s and 1980s because oil became very expensive． Recently ？electric cars have again become popular because people want cars that pollute less．Electric cars are better than petrol cars in several ways ． The biggest benefit is that they can reduce pollution ． In areas with a high percentage of electric cars ？there is lesspollution ． But it is important to understand that electric cars still cause pollution ． The electricity to power electric cars has to come from a power station ． Unless these power stations run on solar or wind energy ， they are most likely burning fossil fuels （化石燃料）． The

I paid no attention to him, and I opened my mouth to speak."I'm sorry. I don't have any money with me.""Honey, he paid for your lunch. You're good, " the lunch lady said as she pointed to the direction the boy had gone.1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.I looked in the direction she pointed to, yet I could not find the boy. I missed the chance to 6 him. He was nameless to me. He didn't even know me. But he paid for my lunch.Although it was only three dollars, I couldn't remember anyone doing something so nice for me.A month later, on my way home, I saw an elderly woman struggling （费力） with heavy bags.

"Is that your money?"Jamila looked up from the book she was reading. "Oops. I emptied my pockets before I left for soccer practice yesterday. I was running late, so I didn't have time to take the money up to my room." Jamila's mom handed her the bill and watched as her daughter placed it in her book.Jamila went back to reading. A moment later, she heard her mother give a deep sigh （叹息）. "Jamila, you just put that money in your book. I'm quite sure thatyou won't be able to find it when you need it. You are working so hardto save for a new bicycle. I don't want you to lose any of your hard-earned （辛苦挣得的） money. Don't you have a piggybank? "Jamila nodded.

At least you'll know where it all is."At the bank, Jamila and her mother opened a savings account. The banking manager explained how the money in the savings account would earn interest. The longer the money stayed in the account, the more interest it would earn.Jamila was surprised to learn that she could earn money just by keeping her money in a savings account. "I wish I had done this a long time ago." she winked at her mom. "Maybe I'd have already saved enough to buy my bike."Where did Jamila put the money after her mother handed it to her?Mrs. Johnson thought Jamila should have a bank account because .it could encourage Jamila to work harder for her new bicycleJamila put money everywhere and might lose some of itthe money in a savings account could earn interestJamila spent much more than she earnedHow did Jamila feel when she knew she could earn money by keeping money in thebank?16.CNote-taking is a skill that can help you do well on all your schoolwork--everything from taking tests to researching a paper.If your teacher writes notes on the board, that's a bonus: You can copy them down. If not,write down the most important points from class. For example, does your history teacher mention the date of the Second World War? Or repeat a piece of information? Write it down! It can take time to learn how to listen for the key information, so keep trying and don't give up.If you want to write down every word that's said in class, you'll be mad. So it's necessary to develop your own signs, for example, "pics." for "pictures," or "hw" for "homework." They can help you more quickly take notes. And if you pay too much attention to getting your notesA.B.C.D.（1）A.B.C.D.（2）A.The ways to review notes.B.The skills of correcting notes.C.The methods to perfect notes.D.The necessity of taking notes.（3）right, you might miss listening to what the teacher is saying. Don't be afraid to ask the teacher to repeat something you miss. If you don't want to ask in class, see your teacher after class.It is easy to miss information while taking notes, so compare your notes with what the textbook says 一you can add to your notes as you read. Go over your notes with a friend and compare what the two of you have put down. It will make you two be able to notice mistakes and reinforce what you're learning. It can also help you remember information when it's time for a test.Even if you don't have a test coming up, you'd better look over your notes within 24 hours of taking them. Your brain will start absorbing （吸收） the information while it is still fresh in your mind. Then when you study in the days before a test, you will be able to recall the information much better. Instead of simply reading your notes to yourself, say them aloud.Studies show that speaking aloud helps in memorization. When you speak, try paraphrasing （意译） sometimes rather than reading directly. Paraphrasing and speaking aloud requires your brain to do more work, making it more likely that you will understand what you're studying.Good note-taking takes time. But the time you spend writing and reviewing notes pays off.Not only can this help you do better in a test, it's also a great confidence supporter when you're studying and find yourself saying, "Hey, I remember that!"If a teacher doesn't write notes on the board, students should .read the textbook and underline the important pointswrite down the information repeated by the teacherlisten carefully without taking notescopy a friend's notes in classWhat can we learn from the passage?Writing down words in short helps avoid missing important information.Students should try their best to make sure the notes are right in class.Reading the notes aloud can help students find out mistakes in notes.Students need to spend time practising the skills of taking notes.What's the fifth paragraph mainly about?17.DA.B.C.D.（1）Students in western Ohio （俄亥俄州） have to say "bye-bye" to snow days. Snow may fall,but students won't be able to spend the days sledding （滑雪橇）. Classes will continue—online.Officials say that holding electronic workdays (e-days) will help students keep up with their studies. It will also prevent requiring students to make up schooldays later in June.Which would you prefer ：spending a cold day on a computer, or sitting in school in June when you should be on vacation? Jordan Dewar a student reporter, holds the opinion that having online work on a snow day is the better choice, "You would be working on a day that you already planned on having schoolwork.""Having extra days of school in summer can interfere with （妨碍） families' vacation plans.Besides, what if your school does not have air-conditioning? Imagine sweating through seven hours at school on a hot June day when you could have been relaxing by a pool with your family. Doesn't an e-day sound better than that?" Jordan Dewar said.For some students, it would be easier to concentrate （专注） on e-days than on makeup days. "You can do a little work online, go play, and then come back later," says Rachel Meyers,12. "But on June days you would just have to sit there for seven hours, thinking about how you could be outside, so you lose focus."There are some students arguing that it's not fair to ditch snow days, however. They say that snow days give them a much-needed break. They also note that missing a day here and there is not enough to put them behind. Most students in Silver Valley School think one problem of e-days is that sometimes siblings （兄弟姐妹们） have to share computers at home.In addition, it punishes the students who don't have computers at home. When school starts again after e-days, these students will be left behind and have to work double-time to catch up."School budget cuts （预算削减） across the country are expected to continue into the 2017-2018 school year," the American Association of School Administrators (AASA) Web site states. "The school wouldn't be able to afford both online classes and taking care of the school,"Austin Krewson, an eighth grader, says.Moreover, electricity is likely to be cut off during snowstorms. If kids don't have power at home, the money and the time in running the new program would be wasted.What can we learn from Paragraph 1?Officials suggest students should have more schooldays in June.Officials believe snow days put students behind in their studies.Students have to end snow days earlier than planned.Students won't have sledding classes at school.A.B.C.D.（2）A.Give up. B.Put off. C.Carry out. D.Pay for.（3）A.B.C.D.（4）The student reporter, Jordan Dewar, believes that .siblings can help each other with their studies on e-days.students can learn better on e-days than on makeup dayshaving e-days in winter will save the cost of air-conditioningstudents should study online when it snows heavily on weekdaysWhat does the word "ditch " in Paragraph 5 probably mean?The writer mentions the statement on the AASA Web site to .explain the reason to hold the e-day programshow the difficulty of running the e-day programsuggest government should spend more money on educationstress why some students can't afford computers for online classes四、任务型阅读18.The Art of the ElephantsIf your cat walked across something you were painting and left footprints behind, would you consider your cat an artist? What if your bird held a colored pencil in its beak （喙） and painted on a piece of paper? Most people may think of animal art as a joke, but some people have been taking it very seriously.Elephants were used for hundreds of years in Thailand's logging industry （伐木业） . They moved wood from forests in areas where there were no roads. At the beginning of this century,when the forests of Thailand began to quickly disappear, the government put a stop to logging.All of a sudden, many elephants in Thailand no longer had a way to make a living.Some elephants were treated badly. Others had to try to live on their own and couldn't find enough to eat. There were once tens of thousands of elephants in Thailand. Today, there are less than five thousand. When two Russian-American artists, Vitaly Komar and Alex Melamid, first heard about the troubled elephants of Thailand, they knew that something change had to be done to forever change the way people treated Thai elephants. Then, they came up with an idea to help these elephants.Komar and Melamid visited elephant camps in Thailand and began to show the elephant trainers how to teach the elephants to paint. At first, the trainer had to guide the elephant's trunk. The elephants became more comfortable doing this with practice-- and lots of sweet snacks-- and finally started to paint on their own. The strange idea that Komar and Melamid had（1）（2）（3）（4）（5）to save the elephants actually began to work. They even helped found several elephant art schools in Thailand and in other Asian countries. The elephants and their trainers go there to learn about painting and get supplies they need.Today, people begin to buy elephant artwork from galleries （画廊） all around the world.Some are even willing to pay more than $2, 000 for the work of the elephant artists! Some people compare the cheerful, brightly-colored artwork to the work of some great abstract （抽象的） painters. Some people are just happy to buy these special and original （原创的） art works. Others think they are helping the troubled elephants in this way. The next time you see a piece of colorful abstract art, find out who the artist is. You just may be surprised at what you learn!What may most people think of animal art?What did elephants do in Thailand's logging industry?How many elephants are there in Thailand today?What was Komar and Melamid's idea to help the elephants in Thailand?Please list one reason why people buy elephant artwork.五、书面表达（二选一）19.假如你是李华，这周五上午你们班将参加一次综合社会实践活动。

American called Simon went to London to visit his friend，Rick．Rick told him that his flat was on the first floor．When he arrived，Simon went straight to the first floor of the building．But he was told that there was no one called Rick on that floor．Do you know why？In fact，the British call the first floor of a building the ground floor．The floor above the ground floor is the first floor．But Americans would call it the second floor．The story shows that there are some differences in culture between Britain and America，though the British and Americans both speak English．The British usually hide their feelings．They seldom start a conversation with strangers．For example，on the train the British often spend their time reading newspapers or books．But Americans are quite different．They're more active and easier to talk with．The British and Americans may use different terms for many things．The British usually use football，eraser and mail while Americans like to use soccer，rubber and post．When we go to other countries，we'd better go online to search for something about the cultures there．It'll be helpful for the trip．21．Simon went to London to．A．have a meetingB．study EnglishC．spend his holidayD．visit his friend22．Which picture shows us where Rick's flat was？23．According to the passage，the British usually spend their time on the train．A．playing cardsB．talking loudlyC．doing some readingD．singing and dancing．15．On a warm day in 2050，Frank and Mary Smith wake up in their comfortable house and turn on the computer in their bedroom to get the latest news．They used to read The Guardian，but changed to electronic newspapers many years ago．Frank first reads some news about space：another space flight has returned from Mars．Then they turn to sports news．As they watch the screen，Mary pays for a robot to make coffee for them．Then Frank disappears into another room to join a video meeting with his business partners around the world．Frank is a computer engineer．Mary is still in their bedroom．She picks up the video phone to talk to her assistant（助理）．Mary also has a job and she is doing medical research．Both she and Frank used to have office jobs in London，but in 2040they decided to move to the seaside and work from home．Frank and Mary have one daughter，Louise．She goes to school only three days a week，mainly to ask her teachers questions，discuss her homework or play with other students．Some classrooms disappeared in 2035because there was no longer much need for them．The Internet had made it easier to learn at home．Louise，now thirteen，is studying Chinese at present，which has become a world language as important as English．Louise has many Chinese friends．They share many things online．According to the family doctor，Louise will live to be at least 130．Her wish is to work for a few decades（十年）and then spend her time studying music and painting or doing her favorite things．24．Frank reads news about first．A．travelB．spaceC．musicD．sport25．According to the passage，the writer believes that in 2050．A．Louise won't go to schoolB．Mary will be a computer engineerC．a robot can make coffee for Frank and MaryD．all the people will live to be at least 130years old26．What can we learn from the passage？A．People won't enjoy their life in 2030．B．There won't be any classrooms in schools in 2035．C．More and more people will work in offices in 2040．D．China will play a very important part in the world in 2050．16．Do you need to"edit（编辑、剪辑）your friends"？Is your mobile phone directory full of phone numbers of people you don't really want to talk to？Do you go out with people from work or school more often than with your real friends？Do you say yes to invitations because you think you should，not because you want to？If you answer yes to at least two of these questions，then perhaps you need to"edit your friends"．Nowadays people like to spend a lot of time with people at work or classmates at school．The result is that we don't have enough time to see our real，close friends．As our life gets busier，it becomes more important to spend the little free time we have with people we really want to see，people we love and who really love us．But usually we don't have any time to get together with them．Who are the friends you need to edit？A few years ago I read a book about how to choose between necessary things and unnecessary ones．It says you should ask yourself about each thing you have：Is it useful？Do I really like it？Do I feel better every time I look at it？If the answer is no to any one of those questions，you should throw it away．Maybe we should ask similar questions about our friends．What kind of friends will you probably need to edit？Sometimes it's an old friend，somebody who you used to have a lot in common with，but when you meet now，you have very little or nothing to say to．Or it might be a new friend who you get on quite well with，but who is taking up too much of your time．Next time one of these people calls you and suggests a meeting，think"Do I really want to see this person？"and if the answer is no，say no and make an excuse．In that way you'll have more time to spend with your real friends．27．People need to edit their friends when．A．they have moved to a different areaB．they have no time with their real friendsC．their friends have gone out to work or schoolD．their friends have got on quite well with them28．People don't need to edit their．A．old friendsB．new friendsC．real friendsD．young friends29．What does the writer want to tell us in Paragraph 3？A．We should often ask questions．B．We should treat our friends well．C．Most of our friends are not necessary at all．D．We should ask ourselves who our real friends are．17．Sometimes parents spoil（溺爱）too much their children，because they offer them too much attention and try to carry out all their wishes．It is true that a good mother wants her child to be happy and to spend the most time with him or her．Anyway，it is sometimes suitable for mothers to leave their children much time alone，because he or she needs to create his or her own personality without the influence of the others around．As a child，what do you think of that？Do you like the time your parents spend most with you or the time your parents leave you alone？Mothers'behavior can be，at times，negative for their children if they spoil them too much．Children should also know that things cannot always happen the way they want，and they have to accept this．Crying andyelling aren't always the perfect ways to attract their mother or father，in order to make them do a certain thing．Therefore，mothers who used to spoil their children too much should not give up their jobs in order to stay at home with their children，because they give a negative education to these children．A girl won't be able to make her bed，iron a pair of trousers，tidy up her room and so on，because it's her mother's duty to do those for her，while she can do other things like playing with her mobile phone，watching TV，listening to music or wearing some make﹣up to go out with her friends．What about your mother？Does she go to work or stay at home to take good care of you？Can you do some chores for yourself or do some housework for the family？In my opinion，a good mother knows what education should be given to her child without giving up her job．Moreover，a mother is a good mother she is able to combine the both things：the education of her child and the job．Even if she doesn't have much time to spend with her child，a good mother knows what advice should be given to her child，for example，to listen to his or her problems，to help a little with homework and to offer him or her the independence he or she needs．What's your idea？Would you like your parents to get jobs？So，what should you do to make them believe that you can grow up as a person？30．Which of the following shows that a mother spoils her children？A．She cares for them too much．B．She brings them with her．C．She leaves them alone at home．D．She tries to realize her own dreams．31．According to the writer，a spoil child usually thinks that．A．his parents are always very negativeB．his parents will do everything for himC．he can express himself in the perfect wayD．accidents always take place in the same way32．The underlined word"combine"in Paragraph 3probably means．A．provideB．protectC．complainD．connect33．The last paragraph of this passage is mainly about．A．the education and the jobB．how to be a good motherC．children's early educationD．the importance of the independence．四、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题．（共10分，每小题10分）18．Today at 11：00I will be doing something that some people told me that I would never be able to do．I am graduating from college．When I graduated from high school，my family had a business so I never thought about getting a college degree．I went straight to work for my father．After 24years of ups and downs （mostly downs），I decided that I went to return to school and earn a degree in Business Administration．Some people told me that it was too late．Some told me that I was too old．Others told me that I would never be able to pull it off，because I had to work full time and as a mother，I had to look after my children，too．Anyhow，almost everyone around me didn't think I could finish college．But inside I was told something different．I began to look for chances to go to school．One day while looking up information on how to go aboutgetting into college，a little window popped up （弹出）on my screen．It said，"Do you think you are too old to go back to school？"I was so excited that I clicked on the box at once and there I found an online college．I spoke to someone in the school．They told me that I could take classes any way that I wanted so that I could go to work．I also found out that I could have classes at home so that I could be there for my children．Now today，almost 2years later，I will not only be graduating with honors．I have been on the Dean's list for almost the whole time I have been in college．And I also got very good scores in every exam．So for anyone out there who thinks that something is out of reach or impossible，remember this：if I had listened to those people who told me，I couldn't do it then．The man who has made up his mind to win will never say"impossible"．34．Why didn't the writer go on with education after graduating high school？35．How many years later did the writer decide to return to school？36．Did the people think the writer could finish college？37．Where did the writer have classes？38．What does the writer want to tell us？．五、文段表达从下面两个题目中任选一题，根据中文和英文提示，完成一篇不少于50词的文段写作．文中已给出的内容不计入总词数．所给英文提示词语仅供选用．请不要写出你的校名和姓名．19．假如你是李华，下星期天你和家人打算邀请你们班的交换生Peter去密云云佛山滑雪场滑雪（Yunfoshan Ski

friends"？Is your mobile phone directory full of phone numbers of people you don't really want to talk to？Do you go out with people from work or schoolmore often than with your real friends？Do you say yes to invitations because you think you should，not because you want to？If you answer yes to at least two of these questions，then perhaps you need to"edit your friends"．Nowadays people like to spend a lot of time with people at work or classmates at school．The result is that we don't have enough time to see our real，close friends．As our life gets busier，it becomes more important to spend the little free time we have with people we really want to see，people we love and who really love us．But usually we don't have any time to get together with them．Who are the friends you need to edit？A few years ago I read a book about how to choose between necessary things and unnecessary ones．It says you should ask yourself about each thing you have：Is it useful？Do I really like it？Do I feel better every time I look at it？If the answer is no to any one of those questions，you should throw it away．Maybe we should ask similar questions about our friends．What kind of friends will you probably need to edit？Sometimes it's an old friend，somebody who you used to have a lot in common with，but when you meet now，you have very little or nothing to say to．Or it might be a new friend who you get on quite well with，but who is taking up too much of your time．Next time one of these people calls you and suggests a meeting，think"Do I really want to see this person？"and if the answer is no，say no and make an excuse．In that way you'll have more time to spend with your real friends．27．People need to edit their friends when B．A．they have moved to a different areaB．they have no time with their real friendsC．their friends have gone out to work or schoolD．their friends have got on quite well with them28．People don't need to edit their C．A．old friendsB．new friendsC．real friendsD．young

A Winning DayMom and I were sitting in the front row of the basketball arena （球场）. Thanks to Mom's boss, I could watch my first professional basketball game in such a great seat! And the most exciting thing was that I could see my favorite basketball player, Dwight Edwards, in person. I was holding his photo in my hand all the time.Throughout the game Dwight made one fantastic play after another. With 3 seconds left in the game, he scored the winning basket for his team! After the television reporter finished interviewing Dwight, Mom and I walked toward him."Umm…Mr.…Mr. Edwards? I'm Keysha, and I think you're amazing." My heart was beating fast. But I collected my courage and asked, "Would you please sign my photo? ""Sure, Keysha. Thanks for coming today." Dwight smiled as he signed the photo and then shook my hand. I thanked him.As Mom guided my steps toward the exit, I watched Dwight until he disappeared into the locker room. When I turned around, I noticed a little boy holding a piece of paper and a pen and crying. "It's OK, son. " his father said, "We'll meet Dwight Edwards some other time."I looked at Dwight Edwards' signature and thought about how great it was to meet him.Then I thought about how kind Mom's boss was for giving us the tickets to allow me to have this experience.I handed Dwight's photo to the boy. "Here, I want you to have this." I said.The boy's eyes widened. "Dwight's autograph （亲笔签名）? Wow!" he exclaimed. "Thank you!""No problem." I replied."Keysha, that was very thoughtful of you."

IQ tests have managed to confuse many of us, leading us to believe that intelligence is largely fixed.It is not. Just like swimming, cooking, dancing, and many other things, being smart is a skill that requires training. I discovered some of the most important tools to be smart when I watched my professors for years to learn how to do useful research. Now I will share them with you.Practice self-critical thinkingCritical thinking is the act of questioning the arguments that are put before us. It is a valuable skill — without it, we are too willing to believe what other people say and easily get influenced. The problem is that we usually only apply （应用）critical thinking to other people's ideas. When we apply critical thinking to our own ideas, its power reaches a whole new level. I call this self-critical thinking. If you practice self-critical thinking, you will find imperfection in your arguments before anyone else and you can come up with a better idea. By practicing self-critical thinking, your mind will surprise you.Be persistentA.B.C.D.（1）A.B.C.D.（2）A.How to be smart.B.How to argue forcefully.C.How to be successful.D.How to do useful research.（3）Smart and successful people don't give up. They believe that they can do it, so they spend months, even years trying until finally something works out. You might know that Thomas Edison failed thousands of times before he succeeded. Actually, almost all scientists experience failure regularly. So if you want to be smart, be persistent.Learn to present your ideasYou may have your good ideas, but if you don't sell your ideas, no one will recognize their worth and consider you smart. So you need to learn how to present your ideas. Pronounce clearly, express your thoughts properly, and most importantly, let your enthusiasm （热情）about your ideas shine through. Enthusiasm spreads quickly. When you have something to say,say it well. Selling your ideas is not only good for your reputation （声誉）, others can also benefit from your message.Finally, you must also believe in yourself. Those who appear smarter than you simply have used the right tools to exercise their minds. You are smarter than you think.When we practice self-critical thinking, we .are very likely to doubt other people's ideasare willing to believe and accept other people's ideascan easily come up with better ideas than other peoplecan find weak points in our own ideas before other peopleWhat can we learn from the passage?Too many people think they can improve their intelligence.Scientists can succeed much more easily than normal people.Pronouncing clearly is the most important skill to express ideas.Others can recognize the value of your ideas if you sell them properly.What does the passage mainly talk about?17.I ask every student I interview for admission （获准入学）to my college the samequestion ， "What do you look forward to the most in college" I was surprised and pleased recently when a student replied ， "I look forward to the possibility of failure." This is not how most students answer the question when sitting before the person who can make decisions about their academic （学术） futures ，but this young man took a risk. "My parents have neverA.B.C.D.（1）A.Be interested in.B.Be ashamed of.C.Be doubtful about.D.Be pleased with.（2）A.B.（3）let me fail ，" he said." When I want to take a risk at something ，they remind me it's not safe.They think taking a hard course or trying a challenging activity will destroy my college admission.”This is not an uncommon story. Kids all over the world are under great pressure to be perfect. So it's hard to find imperfection in a college application （申请）. Students try their best to hide negative things and only tell us impressive things. But perfection doesn't exist （存在），and we don't expect to see it. In fact ，admission officers are likely to be skeptical of students who present themselves as persons without weaknesses.We want to find out who students really are outside of their medals and test scores. We get excited when we read an application that seems real. If their viewpoints are about lessons learned or challenges overcome ，these applicants are likely to jump to the top. We believe a mistake in high school should not define （定义）the rest of your life, but how you react could shape you forever.Teenagers will never be perfect. They do silly things ，mess up and fall down. The ability to bounce （反弹）back is a basic life skill students have to learn on their own. The lessons of failure can't be taught in a classroom; they are experienced and reflected upon. During my interviews ，another student told me ， "I'm ashamed that I failed my math class ，but I took it again and got a B-plus." "From the experience I learned to let go of shame ，" he said.

But some cars use electricity. They get theirpower from large batteries （电池）. There are also some cars that have both an electric motor and a petrol motor. They are called hybrid cars.Most people think of electric cars as a new invention, but they have been around for a long time. In the late 19th and early 20 centuries electric cars were popular because the technology for petrol engines was not highly developed. But when the petrol engines became easier to make and more powerful, they became more popular. Interest in electric cars was high in the 1970s and 1980s because oil became very expensive. Recently, electric cars have again become popular because people want cars that pollute less.Electric cars are better than petrol cars in several ways. The biggest benefit is that they can reduce pollution. In areas with a high percentage of electric cars, there is less pollution. But it is important to understand that electric cars still cause pollution. The electricity to power electric cars has to come from a power station. Unless these power stations run on solar or wind energy,they are most likely burning fossil fuels （化石燃料）. The second benefit of electric cars is a reduction in the dependence on foreign oil. Since electric cars can run on electricity from coal or nuclear power （核能）stations, there is less of a need to import oil.There are some problems with electric cars as well. One disadvantage is that electric cars are more expensive than petrol cars. This is mostly because of the high cost of the batteries.They need to be charged in special places. Right now, there aren't enough places where people can charge the batteries. Another problem is that electric cars cannot travel as far as petrol cars.Some people are afraid that the battery will run out of electricity before they reach their destination.Despite these problems, many people, including car industry experts, believe that the percentage of electric cars will increase in the future.th（1）（2）（3）（4）（5）What do electric cars get their power from?When were electric cars first popular?Why have electric cars become popular again recently?What is the third paragraph mainly about?What are the disadvantages of electric cars compared with petrol cars?五、书面表达(共10分)19.根据中文和英文提示，完成一篇不少于50词的文段写作。
