Paddling（划浆）a dragon boat is no piece of cake.Besides the key timerequired to be part of a team，it's a full-body exercise.When I joined a team，they told me it took at least three years to become a good paddler.There's so much to remember：correct posture and movement as well as team synchronization（同步，同时性）are necessary for a team's success.Dragon boat racing is a well-honored tradition in China and the highlight of the Dragon Boat Festival.However，because of the pandemic（疫情），last year's races were put off from June to October.For the first time，Taipci's dragon boat championships were held during the October holiday. Our team knew racing conditions on the river would be different in October，but we had no idea how different they would be.A nearby typhoon brought in the fierce winds and big waves on theriver.With about 40 teams participating，I didn't expect our team to go very far.This was the first competition for most of us.And only the top two finishers in each group would advance to the next round.Simply getting to the race's starting point for our first group was a challenge.The big waves threatened to flip（翻转）us over.Paddling against wave was tough，but we crossed the finish line and surprisingly，advanced to the second round.The next day，there was no shortage of accidents.Boats flipped over and others lost control and weren't able to finish their races.In our final race that day，we narrowly advanced to the following day's semifinals.We faced strong competitors in the semifinals，including a semiprofessional team.Being held back by their boat's waves was highly frustrating.However，in dragon boat racing，no one ever stops paddling，no matter what!So I kept paddling working my hardest to keep pace with the team.We trailed the other boats，but we didn't lose hope.In the final push，filled with both excitement and exhaustion，we persisted and advanced to the finals!Although we had expectations，never did we imagine we'd make it into the top three.How come？Let me tell you!To win a dragon boat race，you need three things：________，_______and__________ .(1) Paddling a dragon boat is easy，isn't it？______(2) According to the team mates，how long did it take to become a good paddler？______(3) Why were the races put off last year？______(4) How did the writer feel when they advanced to the second round？______(5) What do you think of the writer's semifinal race______(6) What can be filled in the blanks in the last paragraphTo win a dragon boat race，you need three things：______ ______ ，and ______ .五、选词填空-短文（本大题共2小题，共8.0分）29.On the last day of last September，my sister sent me a message：The 1196 weather service will come to an end.So，if you want to listen，today is the last（1）______ .For 20 years，a caller could（2）______ 1196，choose an area and then hear the weather report read by a computer-spliced（合成的）version of my father's voice.Dad has been（3）______ for 19 years，and the weather app would take the place of it soon.Dad's love for the job was beyond my imagination.He kept making most of the recordings—thousands of words and phrases—after he had cancer.I remembered following him to the recording room（4）______ .(1)(2)(3)(4)30.He would sit there for a whole day，reading thousands of words with headphones on.The familiar headphones and the exact pronunciation all took him back to his previous job as a radio journalist.And he was（1）______ his voice.It sounded strong still and held its fine timbre（音色）though he was in poor health.The whole recording was really a large（2）______ with many parts.In the end，Dad was too weak to go to the recording room.Then the sound engineer came to my parents' house to（3）______ the last parts.（4）______ ，I called the number for the last time.A well-spoken robot，speaking in my father's voice，made me ache.It was another goodbye，so long after the last goodbye.(1)(2)(3)(4)六、阅读填空（本大题共1小题，共14.0分）31.

The Earth's temperature is rising, and this is having a significant impact on our planet.One of the main causes of climate change is the burning of fossil fuels. This releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, which trap heat and lead to global warming. Another cause is deforestation, which reduces the number of trees that can absorb carbon dioxide from the air.The effects of climate change are far-reaching. Rising sea levels threaten coastal communities, extreme weather events are becoming more frequent, and biodiversity is being lost. It is clear that we need to take action to address this problem.One way to combat climate change is to reduce our carbon footprint. This means using less energy, recycling more, and choosing sustainable products. Another way is to support renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power.It is important that we all take responsibility for our actions and work together to protect our planet. Only by doing so can we ensure a sustainable future for generations to come.Questions:1. What is the main topic of this passage?A. The causes of climate changeB. The effects of climate changeC.

Before that, most kids were taught what they needed to learn at home.When you learn reading, math, and other subjects taught in school from your parents or private teachers who come to your house, it's called homeschooling. A kid may be the only one, or he or she may be taught with brothers, sisters, or kids from the neighborhood.Parents choose to home school their children for many different reasons. Sometimes a kid is sick and can't go to regular school. But more often, kids are homeschooled because their parents feel they can give their child a better education than the local school can.You might wonder if kids have to go to school. It's true that kids must be educated, but the law allows the kids to be schooled at home. In fact, more than 1.3 million students do it in the USA alone. These kids can learn just as much as they do in regular schools, but their parents are in charge of their education.Homeschool parents must make sure that their kids get the instruction and the experiences they need. The parents also may have to write a report every year to explain to the government who's teaching the kid and which subjects are being taught at home.(24. 1635 25. math 26. sick 27. local 28. 1.3 29. law 30. report )Part 2II. 31.

On New Year's Day, when Tom was 15, his father asked him to work on the farm for one year in his free time. Tom was not happy with his father's idea. "That isn't my job. I have too much schoolwork to do." When his father heard this. he said, "I promise to give you anything you want if you can finish one year's work." Tom thought for a moment and agreed.On the first Saturday, the boy got up early and worked hard until evening, just like any other farmer. Time passed quickly. Tom's crops grew well. On the last day of the year, the father called his son to him, "I'm happy to see that you have worked very hard this year," said the father. "Now, tell me what you want.”The boy smiled and showed his father a big piece of bread. He made it from the wheat he worked so hard to grow. "I've already got the best thing. No pain, no gain. I think this is what you wanted me to know." His father was very happy to hear that.(17. F 18. T 19. F 20. T 21. F 22. F 23. T)D. Listen to the passage and complete the following sentences 4These days, most people in Britain and the US do not dress formally. But sometimes it is important to wear the right things.Many British people don't think about clothes very much. They just like to be comfortable. When they go out to enjoy themselves, they can wear almost anything. At theatres, cinemas, and concerts you can put on what you like from beautiful suits and dresses to jeans and sweaters. Anything goes, as long as you look clean and tidy.But in Britain, as Well as in the US, men in offices usually wear suits and ties, and women wear dresses or skirts(not trousers). Doctors, lawyers, and business people wear formal clothes. And in some hotels and restaurants men have to wear ties and women wear tidy dresses.In many ways, Americans are less formal than British people, but they are careful with their clothes. At home, or on holidays, most Americans wear informal or sports clothes. But when they go out in the evening, they like to look nice. In hotels and restaurants, men have to wear jackets and ties, and women wear pretty clothes.It is difficult to say exactly what people wear in Britain and the US, because everyone is different. If you are not sure what to wear, watch what other people do and then dress the same. You will feel more comfortable if you don't look too different from everyone else.(24. right 25. comfortable 26. themselves 27. concerts 28. Doctors 29. less 30. Watch) Part.2II.

These dreams may include beautiful silk dresses, delicious food, servants and of course, magic. However, real life in an English castle was not easy. With thick stonewalls and high towers, castles were noisy places with an unpleasant smell. Horses, cows, chickens and sheep walked free. Soldiers practiced sword fights every day. And children of all ages played around them. Castles did not have central heating; the only heat came from the fireplace. Even in summer the castle was cool. People living in the castle had to use blankets to keep warm while at work.Life during the Middle Ages began at sunrise. Servants lit the fire, swept the floor and cooked the morning meal. After dinner, everyone continued his or her work. the owners of the castle sometimes took his guests hunting or shooting. His wife spent much of the day watching the servants work, as well as cooks working in the kitchen. Supper was simple and eaten late, just before bedtime.You may find some old magic books in a castle as Harry Potter once did. Read them before you go to bed, because when you fall asleep , the magic of castle life may appear before youreyes.(17. T 18. F 19. F 20. T 21. F 22. F 23. T)D.

It was really different from my school in China. Girls wore grey skirts and white shirts, boys wore grey trousers, and everyone wore the school tie. Some of Sam's lessons Were a bit strange for me. We were reading Shakespeare in the English lesson, and there were various old-fashioned words like "thou" and "thee" to mean "you". In history lessons, we studied 20th Century China. It was strange hearing English people trying to say all our Chinese names! Classes were also a lot more relaxing and active than in China. Male teachers were called "sir" and female teachers "miss" out of respect, but everyone shouted out and waved their hands in lessons. It was more like a debate than a class. A bell rang at the end of each lesson and everyone jumped up to go to the next class. At break we bought "potato crisps" and "cakes" in the dining room. Lunch was later than in China-at one o' clock. We had big plates of pies wi.th peas and carrots. For dessert there was hot sweet rice, called rice pudding, with jam in it. It was good that I'd had a huge lunch because at Sam's school, Monday afternoons are taken up with sports.Part 1I. A. 1. D 2. E 3. B 4. G 5. A 6. CB. 7. A 8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D 12. B 13. D 14. C 15.

One reason for that was the Academy, a government organization with some strict r__86_ ___ about art. It decided what could and could not be art. In order to be accepted by the Academy, an artist had to be very talented. Artists also had to paint exactly the way the Academy wanted them to.

In 1864, a group of artists became a ___88____ because they didn’t get into the show. They felt that their paintings were not bad; the paintings were just different. After complaining to the government, these artists were given their own show.The Academy thought all art should look realistic(逼真).But these artists were more interested in trying to show movement and the bright colors of daylight. In their opinion, it was more real to show these than it was to paint a scene(场景)which was as s_89___as a photo.

The first thing the lion thinks about is, “I must be able to catch the s__________ antelope, or I will die of hunger.”So, almost at the same time, the antelope and the lion get up and start running toward the rising sun.This is life: full of chances and challenge (挑战). Whether you are an antelope or a lion,you must go a_________ when the sun rises. For students, it is just the same. If we do not study hard, sooner or later, we will fall b_________ the other students. At first, I did not know what the word “exam” meant. Later I knew an exam was a kind of competition. In competitions, there are always w_________ and losers. As I grew up, I got to know competition well. In one’s life, there must be competitions, so people can improve.Each time I saw children playing games and heard their laughter, I wished I were that age again. However, I remembered my parents’ words: “You must work very hard in order to have a good f__________.” So I picked up my pen and began to study hard again.I was still not sure what competition really meant. One day, I was taking part in an English-speaking competition. When I went to the stage, I saw other students looking at me kindly.I s__________ knew what competition was.

Well, since the milk has a 90 been spilled, would you like to play in the milk for a while ? We can it up after that. "Indeed, he did so. After a few minutes, his mother said, “You know, Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, finally you have to clean it up." He used a sponge(海绵）and together they cleaned up the spilled milk .His mother then said ,"you know ,we failed in how to successfully carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands just now .Let`s go out in the yard and fill the bottle with water to see if you can f 91 a new way to carry it .

They wanted to learn the a___________ languages such as Greek and Latin- languages that were used in the old times, and study mathematics, science, and so on. Many universities were set up during the 16th century.University education was a privilege (特权) of the rich. Girls were not allowed to attend and poor people could not a____________ to go. A member of a wealthy family could attend university at the age of ten. He might study in different universities and since the teaching was all d__________ in Latin, it didn’t matter which country he studied in. It was not unusual for a young boy study one year in Italy and another in France without speaking either French or Italian.It was p_________ in the 16th century to complete university without learning how to read or write. Since books were handwritten, there was not enough to give o___________ to each student. Often, only the teacher had a book. He would read to the students who would memorize what he said. Tests were oral, not written, In fact, many students finished school without ever writing a word.For the not so wealthy, grammar schools were built in towns. They learned basic grammar and mathematics, and took part in Bible study, At home, girls learned washing, cooking, dancing, and the basics of taking care of a household. Poor children r___________ attended school.The Renaissance was a time when learners did not simply accept what they were old. They did scientific experiments themselves to search for a__________ to the mysteries(神秘) of the space.

According to the Daily Mail, the volcano in the Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, US, has been rising at a record rate since 2004. Its magma (岩浆) surface has gone u 87 3 inches (7.6 centimeters) per year over the last three years alone. This rise is one of the main s 88 that a volcano is about to erupt. However, scientists are not certain when the eruption will happen or what it will cause. Unlike what happens in the movie 2012, a volcano eruption would not destroy the whole world, b 89 it could cause huge damage to people living nearby. For example, the 2010 eruption of the Iceland Volcano caused more than 800 people to 1 90 their homes and many airports in European countries to shut down for a few days.There are more than 1,500 active volcanoes in the world. A volcano is c 91 active if it has erupted at least once during the last 10, 000 years. In ancient times, more than 80 percent of the earth's surface was volcanic. Volcanic eruptions formed the sea floor and some mountains over many years. Gas from volcanoes formed the earth's atmosphere (大气) .Volcanoes come from very hot liquid rock, that is magma, inside the earth. When magma comes upward and breaks through the earth's surface, it forms volcanoes.The rising magma heats water, which leads to explosions of steam. This pushes rocks and ash high into the sky.

Three浦东新区初三英语第二学期学习能力诊断试卷According to experts, the word Hutong originated from Mongolian language meaning "Well" (井). In ancient times, people tended to gather and live around wells. So the original meaning of Hutong should be "a place where people gather and live." But Hutong first a___86___ in Beijing during the Yuan Dynasty. The old city was completely destroyed during the war. First, they had to find a center, and then built a r___87___ square city. At that time, there was a clear definition for “Avenue, Street and Hutong”. A 37-metre-wide road was called an avenue, an 18-metre-wide one was called a street, and a 9-metre-wide lane was called a Hutong. Most of today's Hutong were formed during the Ming and Qing Dynasties that followed. Nobody knows e___88__ how many Hutongs there are in nowadays Beijing. But if we connected all the Hutongs together, their total l___89___ would even be longer than the famous Great wall, which is about 4000 miles.Today you can find v___90___ Hutongs with different shapes, lengths or directions. The shortest one is only 40 centimeters wide. And some Hutongs have more than 20 turns.As we walk t___91___ the Hutongs, you may find most of them look almost the same withgray-colored walls and bricks. Actually inside those walls are the courtyard houses, where people live. In Chinese we call them "Siheyuan". "Si" literally means four, "he" means to surround, and "yuan" refers to the courtyard. So a rectangular wall enclosing four houses, one built on each side facing into the center, is called a Siheyuan. When they were first built, usually one Siheyuan was o___92___ by only one family, but nowadays, with the growth of the population, most Siheyuans are shared by 4 to 10 families.86. appeared 87. regular 88. exactly 89. length 90. various 91. through/toward( s) /to 92. owned普陀区初三英语第二学期学习能力诊断试卷Wendy Martin is an ordinary university student who used to love surfing the Internet and chatting (聊天) with friends online. She often spent much of her free time talking with her family and making new friends online. Then something a 86 happened. It completely changed Wendy's feelings about the Internet.One of Wendy's favourite things to do online was to visit the chat rooms on music websites. Everyone there loved chatting about recent concerts and what the famous s 87 were going to do next. It was here that Wendy first met Anne. The two women liked each other immediately. Soon they exchanged e-mail addresses and were communicating online every day.Wendy e 88 talking to her new friend. They both liked the same music, the same clothes and the same films, but they also had the same worries about studying and the future. Anne had e-mailed her a picture of herself—— she even looked s 89 to Wendy. So, when Anne asked Wendy for her address and phone number, Wendy thought her new friend was a person she could trust. It was only when Wendy got a letter from the bank that she realized something was wrong. Anne was not who she said she was. She was not a university student, she was not young and she was not even a woman. 'Anne' was really a 45-year-old man called Tim Histanon. He p 90 to like the same things as Wendy. He had used Wendy's personal information to spend all the money in her bank account.This situation is actually quite common, and affects (影响) thousands of people every year. Fortunately for Wendy, Tim Histanon was finally caught by the police, so Wendy got most of her money back. Many people, h 91 , have not been so lucky.Everyone can learn from the mistakes that Wendy made.

And although India is changing, one thing remains the s (86) : the cow is sacred (神圣的). And men and women cover their heads and faces with cow urine (牛粪)According to their tradition, the cow is not just a farm animal. These cows are like motherhood, and their milk feeds them. But it's not the milk these men and women are waiting for——it's the urine. As a precious g (87) from the cow, the urine is often placed in the house to protect their homeland. People think the urine can beautify their house and keep away b (88) luck. Men even put cow urine into their hair.And this special form of worshipping (崇拜) has been around for centuries.Surprisingly, cow urine is even used by people as a kind of m (89). Locals believe it can make sick people feel better. Believe it.Some believers show their worshipping by making an offering of hair.About 12,000 heads are shaved (剃头) every day. That means the city is always f (90) of hairless believers. Often waiting for 10 hours or more, believers f (91) enter the shaving area. On average the temple's 1,600 barbers shave over 15 heads an hour. The temple then sells piles of hair to local wigmakers (假发店).

From the first day your pronunciation will be excellent. Just send ..." and so on? Of course, it n 86 happens quite like that. The only language that is easy to learn is the mother tongue. And think how much practice that gets! Before the Second World War people usually learned a foreign language in order to read the literature of the country. Now speaking the foreign language is w 87 most people want.Every year millions of people start learning one. How do they do it? Some people try at home, with books and tapes; some u 88 radio or television programs; others go to evening classes. If they use the language only two or three times a week, learning it will t 89 a long time, like language learning at school. A few people try to learn a language f 90 by studying forsix or more hours a day. It is clearly easier to learn the language in the country where it is s 9l . However, most people cannot afford this, and for many it is not necessary. They need the language in order to do their work b 92 . For example, scientists and doctors mainly need to be able to read books and reports in the foreign language. Whether the language is learned quickly or slowly, it is hard work.

They believed that itwould be better for everybody if only bicycles were a 86 in the city center.They hoped that this would help to save energy, reduce pollution and providefree transport. The group painted hundreds of bicycles white and placed themin public places around Amsterdam for people to use. Anyone was able to use them for s 87 journeys, whether he was a local or a foreigner. Wherever someone finished a journey, they would l 88 the bicycle there for someone else to use. The problem was that it didn’t work–thieves took all the bicycles within weeks!However, more than forty years later, the “white bicycle” is b 89 in town–this time with a computer chip(芯片) to r 90 its every move! To take a bicycle, you have to put a special card inside. The new “white bicycle” is not white any more but is an unusual design with bright colours. The bicycles are parked at special parking places and people who want to use them have to take them to a 91 place that has enough room.There is already l 92 traffic in central Amsterdam, because both locals and tourists have been using the “white bicycles”.

Single and childless women 41 had an uncomfortableand difficult time. The majority of women had no voting or political rights until 1928, and for centuries wives and their property had been the legal _ 42 of their husbands. Formal education for women was thought to be unnecessary for their role in life, and was 43for the majority.The female position in society became a little better in some respects towards the end ofthe nineteenth century, but was still very 44 . However, elementary education for all was established and a few institutions of higher education began to 45 women in restricted numbers.Since the 1960's, women in Britain have been fighting for greater equality with men injob 46 and rates of pay. Various laws from the 1970's to the present have been made. In spite of all these, men remain' better paid than women in many occupations, 47 in industry. Women constitute (构成) nearly half the national workforce, there are moreemployed married women in Britain than in any other European Community country, and some 60 percent of wives are now 48 compared with 22 percent in 1951. But their average weekly wage is still only 70 percent of the average paid to men. This is true of both the manufacturing trades and the service industries. As a result, the majority of female workers are badly paid and often 49 by the trade unions or the law.III.

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)this book is designed to help you improve your reading comprehension skills by studying 20 minutes a day for 20 days. You'll start with the basics and move on to more complex reading comprehension and critical thinking strategies. Please note that although each chapter can be an effective skill builder on its own, it is important that you proceed through this book in order, from Lesson I through Lesson 20. Each lesson builds on skills and ideas discussed in the previous chapters. As you move through this book and your reading skills develop, the passages you read will increase both in length and in complexity.The book begins with a pretest, which will allow you to see how well you can answer various kinds of reading comprehension questions now, as you begin. When you finish the book, take the posttest to see how much you've improved.The text is divided into four sections, each focusing on a different group of related reading and thinking strategies. These strategies will be outlined at the beginning of each section and then reviewed in a special "putting it all together" final lesson.Each lesson provides several exercises that allow you to practice the skills you learn. To ensure you're on the right track, each lesson also provides answers and explanations 'for all of the practice questions. Additionally, you will find practical suggestions in each chapter for how to continue practicing these skills in your daily life.The most important thing you can do to improve your reading skills is to become an active reader. The following guidelines and suggestions outlined will familiarize you with active reading techniques. Use these techniques as much as possible as you work your way through the lessons in this book.65. According to the passage, the pretest aims toA. tell you where your starting level isB. arouse your interest in using the bookC. illustrate the structure of the textD. introduce the test-taking techniques66. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. Each chapter has an internal relationship with the previous chapter.B. The texts are arranged in the order of length and complexity.C. Different reading strategies are listed at the beginning of each section.D. The author suggests using the book selectively according to readers' level.67. What is the author most likely to talk about in the following paragraph?A. The function of each chapter.B. The outline of each section.C. The ways to be an active reader.D. The guidelines in using the book.(B)The canopy, the upper level of the trees in the rain forest, holds too much of climbing mammals (哺乳动物) of moderately large size, which may include monkeys, cats, civets, and porcupines. Smaller species, including such as nice and small squirrels, are not as common overall in high tropical canopies as they are in most habitats globally.Small mammals, being warm blooded, suffer hardship in the exposed and uncertain environment of the uppermost trees. Because a small body has more surface area per unit of weight than a large one of similar shape, it gains or loses heat more rapidly. Thus, in the trees, where protection from heat and cold may be scarce and conditions may be changeable, a small mammal may have trouble maintaining its body temperature.Small size makes it easy to scramble among twigs (嫩枝) and branches in the canopy for insects, flowers, or fruit, but small mammals are defeated, in the competition for food, bylarge ones that have their own strategies for browsing among tbod-rich twigs. The weight of an ape hanging below a branch draws the leaves down so that fruit-bearing leaves drop toward the ape's face. Walking or leaping species of a similar or even larger size access the outer twigs either by breaking and gaining the whole branch or by catching hold of hard branches with the feet or tail and picking food with their hands.Small climbing animals may reach twigs readily, but it is harder for them than for large climbing animals to cross the wide gaps from one tree top to the next that typify the high canopy. A gibbon can hurl itself farther than a mouse can: it can achieve a running start, and it can more effectively use a branch as a springboard (跳板). The forward movement of a small animal is seriously reduced by the air friction (摩擦) against the relatively large surface areaof its body.68. Which of the following questions does the passage answer?A. How is the rain forest different from other habitats?B. How does an animal's body size influence an animal's need for food?C. Why does rain forest provide an unusual variety of food for animals?D. Why do large animals tend to dominate the upper canopy of the rain forest?69. According to paragraph 2, which of the following is true about the small mammals in the rain forest?A. They have body shapes that are adapted to life in the canopy.B. They prefer the temperature and climate of the canopy to that of other environments.C. They have difficulty with the changing conditions in the canopy.D. They use the trees of the canopy for protection from heat and cold.70. When discussing animal size in paragraph 3, the author indicates thatA. small animals require appropriately more food than larger animals doB. a large animal's size is an advantage in obtaining food in the canopyC. small animals are often attacked by larger animals in the rain forestD. small animals and large animals are equally good at obtaining food in the canopy71. According to the last paragraph, what makes jumping from one tree crown to anotherdifficult for small mammals?A. Air friction against the body surface.B. The thickness of the branches.C. The dense leaves of the tree top.D. The inability to use the front feet as hands.(c)According to sociologists, there are several different ways in which a person maybecome recognized as the leader of a social group in the United States. In the fanfilytraditional cultural patterns confer (~z~,) leadership on one or both of the parents. In other cases, such as friendship groups, one or more persons may gradually emerge as leaders, although there is no formal process of selection. In larger groups, leaders are usually chosen formally through election or recruitment.Although leaders are often thought to be people with unusual personal ability, decades of research have failed to produce consistent evidence that there is any category of "natural leaders." It seems that there is no set of personal qualities that all leaders have in common; rather, virtually any person may be recognized as a leader if the person has qualities that meetthe needs of that particular group.Furthermore, although it is commonly supposed that social groups have a single leader, research suggests that there are typically two different leadership roles that are held bydifferent individuals. Instrumental leadership is leadership that emphasizes the completion of tasks by a social group. Group members look to instrumental leaders to "get things done." Expressive leadership, on the other hand, is leadership that emphasizes the collectivewell-beings of a social group's members. Expressive leaders are less concerned with theoverall goals of the group than with providing emotional support to group members and attempting to minimize tension and conflict among them. Group members expect expressive leaders to maintain stable relationships within the group and provide support to individual members.Instrumental leaders are likely to have a rather s econdary relationship to other group members. They give orders and may discipline group members who prohibit attainment (达到)of the group's goals. Expressive leaders cultivate a more personal or primary relationship to others in the group. They offer sympathy when someone experiences difficulties or issubjected to discipline, are quick to lighten a serious moment with humor, and try to resolve issues that threaten to divide the group. As the difference in these two roles suggests, expressive leaders generally receive more personal affection from group members;instrumental leaders, if they are successful in promoting group goals, may enjoy a moredistant respect.72. Which of the following statements about leadership can be inferred from paragraph 2?A. Few people succeed in sharing a leadership role with another person.B. A person who is an effective leader of a particular group may not be an effectiveleader in another group.C. A person can best learn how to be an effective leader by studying research onleadership.D. Most people desire to be leaders but can produce little evidence of their qualifications.73. The passage indicates that instrumental leaders generally focus onA. ensuring harmonious relationshipsB. sharing responsibility with group membersC. achieving a goalD. identifying new leaders74. A "secondary relationship" between a leader and the members of a group could best be described as ______A. distantB. enthusiasticC. sympatheticD. personal75. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. The problems faced by leaders.B. How leadership differs in small and large groups.C. How social groups determine who will lead them.D. The role of leaders in social groups.Section CDirections:Read the following passage and choose the most suitable heading from A-F foreach paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.A. Joint effort in the development of for-profit centersB. Benefits brought to parentsC. An alternative to the problem of public playgroundsD. Suitable time arrangement for working parentsE. Parents' worries of the kids safety in the new playgroundF. Parents' concern about kids playing time76.__________As public playgrounds grow increasingly worn and shabby, the for-profit centers offer clean, safe, supervised activities as well as a variety of challenging exercises to develop youngsters' physical fitness, usually for a fee of around $5 an hour. "Playgrounds are dirty, not supervised," says Dick Guggenheimer, owner of the two-month-old Discovery Zone in Yonkers, N.Y., part of a Kansas City-based chain. "We're indoors; we're padded; parents can feel their child is safe."77. __________Discovery Zone has sold 120 outlets in the past 14 months, boasting sandboxes full ofbrightly colored plastic balls, mazes, obstacle courses, slides and mountains to climb. Now McDonalds is getting into the act. The burger giant is test-marketing a new playground,Leaps&Bounds, in Naperville, Ill. Phys Kids of Wichita has opened one center and has plansto expand.78. __________American parents are rightly worried about their kids' leisure life. There are 36 millionchildren in the U.S. aged 2 to 11 who watch an average of 24 hours of TV a week and devote less and less energy to active recreation. Nationwide decrease in education budgets are making the problem worse, as gym classes and after-hours sports time get squeezed. Says Discovery Zone president Jack Gunion: "We have raised a couple of pure couch potatoes." 79. __________In an attempt to attract more people, the new facilities cater to (迎合) the concerns oftwo-earner families, staying open in the evenings, 10ng after traditional public playgroundhave grown dark and unusable. At Naperville's Leaps&Bounds, families can play together for $4.95 per child, parents free. Fresh-faced assistants, dressed in colorful sport pants and shirts, guide youngsters to appropriate play areas for differing age group.80. __________These new playgrounds are not meant to be day-care facilities; parents are expected to stay and play with their kids rather than drop them off. But several also provide high-techbaby-sitting services. At some of the Discovery Zones, parents can register their children in special supervised programs, then leave them and slip away for a couple of hours to enjoy a movie or dinner. The most fun of all, though, is getting to do what parents used to do in the days before two-career families and two-hour commutes: play with their kid. That, at least, is old-fashioned, even at per-hour rates.Section DDirections:Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements' in the fewest possible words.High school dropouts (辍学者) earn an average of $9,000 less per year than graduates. Now a new study moves away a common belief why they quit. It's much more than failing in exams at school.Society tends to think of high school dropouts as kids who just can't cut it. They are lazy, and perhaps not too bright. So researchers were surprised when they asked more than 450 kids who quit school about why they left."The vast majority actually had passing grades and they were confident that they could have graduated from high school." John Bridgeland, the executive researcher said. About one million teens leave school each year. Only about half of African-American and Hispanic students will receive a diploma, and actually all dropouts come to regret their decision. So, if failing grades don't explain why these kids quit, what does? Again, John Bridgeland: "Themost dependable finding was that they were bored." "They found classes uninteresting; they weren't inspired or motivated. They didn't see any direct connection between what they were learning in the classroom to their own lives, or to their career aspirations."The study found that most teens who do drop out wait until they turn sixteen, which happens to be the age at which most states allow students to quit. In the US, only one state, New Mexico, has a law requiring teenagers to stay in high school until they graduate. Onlyfour states: California, Tennessee, Texas and Utah, plus tile District of Columbia, require school attendance until age 18, no exceptions, another researcher, says raising tile compulsory attendance age may be one way to keep more kids in school."As these dropouts look back, they realize they've made a mistake. And anything that sort of gives these people an extra push to stick it out and it through to the end, is probably helpful measure."New Hampshire may be the next state to raise its school attendance age to 18. But critics say that forcing the students unwilling to continue their studies to stay in school misses the point--the need for reform. It's been called for to reinvent high school education to make it more challenging and relevant, and to ensure that kids who do stick it out receive a diploma that actually means something.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN 10 WORDS)81. What do people think of those who quit school?82. Many students quit school not because they cannot pass grades but because they find Lessons_______________________83. Why don't some students quit until they are sixteen?84. According to the passage, the more effective way to keep students from quitting is to________________________第Ⅱ卷(共45分)IV.
