""You're right," said Frank "Well, I'll eat more cake i . "三．Bedtime stories are one of the delights(喜悦) of early childhood. But a__________ to Dr. Julie Spreadbury from Queensland, parents s____________ not speed up reading to their children after they entered primary school. She says listening to, reading and d_____________ the stories help children's relaxation.My theory(理论) is that when children can read t____________, most parents stop reading to them, Dr. Spreadbury says. That may be at the end of the Year 1, which is far too informal (非正式).Dr. Spreadbury says bedtime reading n___________ only gives children a good b___________ at school, but also brings parents andtheir children closer.

B__________ this time, he was angry.Then one month later, to his surprise, Christopher received a cheque for $100 from Jeff and a letter giving his address. He explained that He’d been having the money p__________, and wouldn’t be able to pay back the remaining $900 for some time. Christopher w rote back telling Jeff to forget the r__________ of the money and never to reach him again by message or telephone.05Reading books is a good hobby for all kinds of reasons.First, reading book is f__________. You can always keep yourself amused if you like reading. This is especially useful when the weather is bad. It is a relaxing hobby too. You can really become lost in a book.Next, you can read a book almost a____________: in a car, in a waiting-room, on a plane, in bed —— even in the bath. All you need is a book! Reading is a convenient hobby as it is easy to stop and then start again.A ____________ good reason for reading books is that it is useful. If you read as a hobby you will get better and better at it. This m_____________ that you will read faster and will become better at understanding what you read. As your reading improves, you will probably find your schoolwork becomes much e_________. Many school subjects depend on good reading and, as you read, you learn more and more.Some people say that reading is out of date. This is not true. You have to be able to read to use a computer and, the better you read, the better your computer skills will be. Reading is h____________ out of date.Good readers are most likely to be good writers, too. They are usually good at spelling as well., and have more things to write about. Reading books is a wonderful hobby, one of the best.W____________ other hobby could be more useful, or more enjoyable!06When the London Underground goes on strike(罢工), my journey to work can be terrible. I remember a strike which happened a few years a_____________ —the station near my house was closed and I had to use another station and take a different train. This a_____________ about an hour to my journey, so I wasn’t very happy.E____________ went wrong at the station. People were late and they were panicking(惊恐)! By the time I got on the train, I was feeling upset and sorry for myself. Then I saw this man. There was something about him—he had such a familiar f___________.

It was such an amazing coincidence!07Some people have problems falling asleep; others have trouble getting up in the morning. The following suggestions may help: Don't spend longer than thirty minutes trying to fall asleep. If you can't get to sleep after half an hour, get up and do s_____________ quiet, like reading. Only go back to bed when you feel tired.Drink a glass of warm milk fifteen minutes before you go to bed---it helps you to relax. But don't drink coffee or tea: they have chemicals which will make it d_______________ for you to sleep.Have a bath---it's a great way to relax. But n______________ stay in there too long. More than twenty minutes and you will lose all your energy. And the bathroom isn't the best place to fall asleep!Listen to some music. However, if you have to get up and turn off the recorder when the music f___________, it doesn't work!Set all the clocks in the house ten minutes fast before you go to bed (and try to forget that you d______________ this when you wake up the next morning).Get a friend to phone you in the morning.

It may not be easy at first, but they say that an hour of sleep before midnight has the same effect as two hours after midnight.08Hi! My name is Stephen and I live in a small flat in London. I chose to live here because there is never a b______________ moment in a city like London. I’m an art student and the busy life in a city does good to my painting. In addition, I can get everything I need so close at hand. Living beside the underground station means that I don’t need a car to get around. It s______ me money. Also there are malls, cinemas, libraries and museums everywhere.Of course, London, like any large city, has p , too. Londoners don’t chat on the underground or the bus and there is much less community spirit than in the country, where my parents live. In fact, they don’t understand how I can put up with（忍受）the noise and pollution, and traffic jams. However, I see that as a small price to p_______________ . As a famous saying goes, “He who is tired of London is tired of life.”Hello! My name is Marianna and I live in Australia, on a huge ranch（牧场）. It’s a beautiful area wit h wonderful scenery. I live there with my husband Joe and our t children, Patrick, and Abby, 8. We have lived on this ranch for several years and we love our healthy lifestyle. The children have lots of s_____ to run around and enjoy the peace and quiet. The air is clean and fresh. We produce a lot of our won food which is nice and healthy. There’s lots of hard work to do running ranch, but we don’t mind.Of course, country life also has weak points. We feel isolated（孤立）sometimes, too, especially since the n_____________ neighbors are almost 100 km away. One more trouble is that we can’t get many things as easily as we do in the city. There are no school s, supermarkets or shops, and if we are ill we have to call the flying do ctor. Although life here can be difficult, we wouldn’t change it for the world.09Helping to save our planet!Week 1 This week, my family tried to save electricity. We never left the lights on when leaving the rooms. We switched off the TV when n______________ was watching it. Mum only used cold water in the washing machine.Week 2 We started recycling this wee. We tried to write on both sides of our paper, not just on one side. We also divided our rubbish into d_____________ bags for bottles, cans, paper and food. Mum kept the plastic shopping bags from the supermarket to usethem a_____________ as rubbish bags. These are great ways to help our environment.Week 3 We stopped taking long baths and had short showers i_______________. We flushed the toilet with used water. When Mum and Dad made tea or coffee, they used l____________ water in the kettle. My sister and I didn’t leave the tap running when we brushed our teeth.Week 4 Mum used to d_____________ us to school, but now my sister and I have started riding our bikes to school. It’s hard work but good exercise! This week Dad and a few of the people he works with also started to go to work together in one car and share the cost. This should help r______________ greenhouse gases!My friends and I became volunteers at school. We help make our school more earth-friendly.10A survey has been published which shows that British people don’t like their neighbors very much.80% of the people who took p art in the survey feel that their neighbors h________________ pay attention to others’ feelings.25% don’t talk to the people who live next door and 10% don’t even know their names. In fact, one million people in Britain would like to m__________________ because they don’t get along well with their neighbors.According to the survey, the b________________ problem is noise. Many of the complaints about noise came from people who live in flats and old houses. These places often have thin walks which can’t s__________________ the noise from next door.The other main problems are disagreements about car parking spaces, and old people complaining about the young. Some disagreements last a l_______________ time. In one case, people who live in the same building haven’t talked to each other for fifteen years. Sometimes the disagreements end in violence. In one of the worst cases, a man killed a neighbor because he kept larking in “his space.’Another survey shows that 90% of the neighbors never share a meal,80% have never had a drink t_________________ and 20% have never even spoken .However, when neighbors become each other’s f______________, they are often ready to offer help, as we can see in many parts of the world.One solution to such problems is to talk about them with a professional organization and, if necessary, to sign a written agreement. Now people can get this service in more and more towns.11At one time, making a film was an expensive activity only for a small group of people and film companies. Not only were the tools and machines expensive but the cost of film was also far greater than most people could afford. However, modern technology has c all that.New technology has really opened up the world of film-making for film fans. Now a camera does not cost m and most young people are certainly able to pay for it. So all you need is to get one for yourself. With that, you may then start your own film-making.However, film-making is t work. Your probably need many other people to help you. For example, the p of actors and actresses is very important in your film. Of course, these actors and actresses may be your schoolmates, friends or family members. You don’t even need to pay them a cent while they are glad to be part of your job.B , you need to make up a story. Can you write your own one? If you have good imagination, you can create an attractive story e . Many world-famous film makers and producers are also good story-writers. If not, perhaps you need someone else to write it for you. An excellent story is the key to making a s film.Are you going to be a cameraman yourself? When filming, who is going to take care of the lighting? Who is going to make the furniture, the background and things like that? If you can’t do all these things, you need to think about asking other people to help you. Remember: Film-making is not a one-man business.2002年答案：better；allowed; again; can 't/cannot; rest; instead2003年答案：according, should, discussing, themselves, not, beginning, or2004年答案：next; still; so; found; By; problem(s); rest2005年答案：fun; anywhere; Another; means; easier; hardly; What2006年答案：ago; added; Everything / Everyone; face / figure; also; know; where; world2007年答案：something; difficult; never; finishes; did; talk; earlier2008年答案：boring; saves; problems; pay; two; space; nearest2009年答案：nobody; different; again; instead; less; drive; reduce2010年答案：hardly; move; biggest; stop; long; together; friends2011年答案：changed; much; team; performance; Besides; easily; successful2012年答案：easily; children; plan; famous; boat; expensive; riding。

Carriages, horses, and bikes rushed in every direction (方向), and then they were80 by the newest toy of the rich people, the “automobiles (汽车).” In those days, crossing a street used to be a real challenge for people walking. There were no 81 for drivers. The New York Police Department had to create a special group of policemen to control traffic. Police officers stood at crossroads and tried to direct the traffic, but very often they were run over by vehicles (车辆). By 1912, New York City had 38,000 motor vehicles. 82 had to be done about all the traffic on the streets!In 1916, the first traffic tower was 83 in New York, at the crossroads of Fifth Avenue and 42nd Street. A traffic officer controlled three 500-watt lamps. They were 40 centimeters in diameter, and they were red, yellow, and green. However, at the time, red 84 traffic in all directions had to stop, yellow stopped only east-west traffic, and green stopped only north-south traffic. This was very confusing, so in 1924 the city adopted (采用) the system used in railroads: red for stop, green for go, and yellow forslow. This system became standard all over the world.The first automatic traffic lights came into use in Wolverhampton, England, in 1927.

Scientists believe that insight, the ability to use tools, and communication using human language are all __52__ measures of the mental ability of animals.When judging animal intelligence, scientists look for insight, which they define as a flash of sudden understanding. When a young gorilla (大猩猩) could not reach fruit from a tree, she noticed crates (木板箱) on the lawn near the tree. She __53__ the crates into a pyramid, then climbed on them to reach her __54__. The gorilla’s insight allowed her to solve a new problem without trial and error.The ability to use tools is also an important sign of intelligence. Crows (乌鸦) use sticks to pry (撬开) peanuts out of cracks. The crow __55__ intelligence by showing it has learned what a stick can do. __56__ , otter (水獭) use rocks to crack open crab shells in order to get at the meat.Many animals have learned to communicate using human language. One chimp can recognize and correctly use more than 250 __57__ symbols on a keyboard. These symbols __58__ human words. An amazing parrot can __59__ five objects of two different types. He can understand the difference between the number, color, and kind of object. The ability to __60__ is a basic thinking skill. In addition, he seems to use language to express his needs and __61__. When ill and taken to the animal hospital for his first overnight stay, this parrot turned to go. “Come here!” he cried to a scientist who works with him. “I love you. I’m sorry. Wanna go back?”The research on animal intelligence raises important questions. If animals are smarter than __62__ thought, would that change the way humans interact with them? Would animals still be used for food, clothing, or __63__ experimentation? Finding the answer to these tough questions makes a difficult __64__ even for a large-brained, problem-solving species like our own.50. A. developed B. admitted C. programmed D. injected51.

This special sign-language is frequently 50 by tramps to informtheir 51 whether the host of a certain house is friendly or unfriendly, and to 52 them the trouble of making unnecessary calls.Quite 53 one day, I came across a real tramp. He was such a rare sight these days that I stood some distance away and watched him. He was dressed just as a tramp should be in, old worn trousers, and a jacket many sizes too big for him. On his head there was a battered old hat and his boots were so old and worn; they were almost coming into pieces.But the man himself looked cheerful as if he had not a 54 in the world. He rubbed his nose with his forefinger, 55 a funny turn, laid a small parcel 56 the front gate, and began 57 a sign made by a former caller. Although the sign was meaningless to me, it must have been 58 , for the tramp’s face lit up with satis faction. He entered the front gate 59 and rang the bell. When the door opened, I saw him raise his hat 60 couldn’t hear his words. The 61 was very short indeed, for no sooner had he spoken a few words than the door closed fiercely in his face.I felt 62 for him as he walked sadly out of the house. But just as quickly, his face lit up again and he moved quickly towards the gate. There he stopped, looked at the sign, and shook his head seriously as if he had made a bad mistake. 63 deeply into his pockets, he produced a piece of chalk, rubbed out the existing sign and made a new one in its place. He stared at it for a moment smiling to himself, then gathered his belongings, pushed back his hat and began walking towards the next house at an unhurried 64 , whistling as he went along.50.

Now, it seems, there is scientific evidence to __50__ his claim. The idea that geniuses such as Shakespeare, Mozart, and Picasso possessed certain inborn talents is a false belief, according to a study by a British psychologist and his colleagues.After examining outstanding performance in the arts and sports, these researchers concluded that __51__ is determined by opportunity, encouragement, training, motivation, self-confidence, and — most important of all — __52__. Even people who were not thought to be 53__ with any special talent could, after having received training, reach levels __54__ considered attainable (可获得的) only by gifted individuals. ‘Talent is a false belief, and it is time that people got rid of it,”they said.This theory —a dramatic __55__ with traditional beliefs —has been __56__ by academics worldwide. In fact, studies of accomplished artists and mathematicians, and top tennis players and swimmers, have reported few early signs of __57__ in these people before any parental encouragement. No case has been found of anyone reaching the highest levels of achievement without __58__ himself or herself to thousands of hours of serious training. Even those who are believed to be exceptionally talented — whether in music, mathematics, chess, or sports — have needed lengthy periods of instruction and practice to achieve their highest level of success. ‘The persistent false belief that some people reach high levels of performance without spending numerous hours practising __59__ much to the fact that their practice is usually outside the casual observer’s view,’ stated one scientist.The importance of practice has been noticed in athletics. For instance, differences in the composition of certain muscles were once thought to be __60__ predictors of athletic performance. However, the differences in the proportion of certain muscle fibers(组织) that are __61__ for success in long-distance running are largely the result of extended practice in running.‘What makes a genius then?’ one may ask. __62__, there is no clear answer. What is known, however, is that ‘nurture’ is at least as important as ‘nature.’ __63__, a supportive environment will do far more for a child’s prospects of success than any inborn gifts. T his is a message that most of us will find __64__ —even if we haven’t won the gene lottery, our fate is still in our own hands.50. A. make B. challenge C. support D. dismiss51.

In an attempt to keep normal weight, people have 50 tried various methods. Nevertheless, not all the ways are 51when it comes to health. For weight loss, many people 52 the high-protein, low-carbohydrate (碳水化合物) diets. However, such diets might have 53 harmful long-term effects on the colon (结肠), a small study indicates.In the study, UK researchers found that a protein-heavy, low-carbohydrate diet created certain 54 in the colon that could lead to colon cancer risk. The study itself does not show whether high-protein diets really raise the 55 of any colon diseases, but the findings raise that possibility.Diets 56 high in protein and lower in carbohydrates have been shown to help heavy people lose weight. “People should not be 57 from losing weight,” Dr Flint said.58 , he added, they should make sure that any weight loss plan includes adequate amounts of fiber (纤维) and a high protein over months to years might have ill effects on the colon.The findings are based on seventeen overweight men who 59 three short-term diets: a one-week menu plan to keep their weight; a four-week high-protein diet with 60 amounts of carbohydrates; and a four-week high-protein diet low in carbohydrates.On average, the study found when the men were on the high-protein diets, they had higher levels of substances known as N-nitrous compounds (亚硝基化合物) that have been61 cancer. And when they were on the high-protein, low-carbohydrate diet, they had lowered amounts of fiber-originated compounds (源自纤维的混合物) thought to be protective against 62 .Exactly what those changes might mean for a person’s health is 63 ; But Flint said that the findings suggest that people should be aware of consuming too much protein and too little fiber over a long period. 64 , experts recommend that adults get about 28 grams of fiber per day—though it’s not known whether that’s enough for someone on a high-protein weight-loss diet.50.

There’s lots of hard work to do running ranch, but we don’t mind.Of course, country life also has weak points. We feel isolated（孤立）sometimes, too, especially since the n_____________ neighbors are almost 100 km away. One more trouble is that we can’t get many things as easily as we do in the city. There are no schools, supermarkets or shops, and if we are ill we have to call the flying doctor. Although life here can be difficult, we wouldn’t change it for the world.09Helping to save our planet!Week 1 This week, my family tried to save electricity. We never left the lights on when leaving the rooms. We switched off the TV when n______________ was watching it. Mum only used cold water in the washing machine.Week 2 We started recycling this wee.

Many of the complaints about noise came from people who livein flats and old houses. These places often have thin walks which can’t s__________________ the noise from next door.The other main problems are disagreements about car parking spaces, and old people complaining about the young. Some disagreements last a l_______________ time. In one case, people who live in the same building haven’t talked to each other for fifteenyears. Sometimes the disagreements end in violence. In one of the worst cases, a man killed a neighbor because he kept larking in “hisspace.’Another survey shows that 90% of the neighbors never share a meal,80% have never had a drink t_________________ and 20%have never even spoken .However, when neighbors become each other’s f______________, they are often ready to offer help, as we cansee in many parts of the world.One solution to such problems is to talk about them with a professional organization and, if necessary, to sign a written agreement.Now people can get this service in more and more towns.11At one time, making a film was an expensive activity only for a small group of people and film companies.

If you have good imagination, you can create anattractive story e . Many world-famous film makers and producers are also good story-writers. If not, perhaps youneed someone else to write it for you. An excellent story is the key to making a s film.Are you going to be a cameraman yourself? When filming, who is going to take care of the lighting? Who is going to make thefurniture, the background and things like that? If you can’t do all these things, you need to think about asking other people to help you.

They say that because of the Internet and other new technology, there is no need for school buildings, classes or t86 .

They say that because of the Internet and othernew technology, there is no need for school buildings, classes or t86 . Perhaps this will be true one day, but if the world had no schools, I couldn‘t imagine how our society would be.In fact, we should learn how to use new technology to make schools b 87 . We should invent a new kind of school that is l 88 to libraries, museums, science centers, labs and even companies. Companies should create learning programs for schools. Scientists could give talks t 89 the Internet. TV networks and local TV stations could develop programs about the students who are studying at school. Labs could set up websites to show new technology so that students could see it on the Internet.Is this a d 90 ? No. This is beginning to happen in many cities. In thosecities, learning can take place at home, at school and in the office. Businesses provide programs for schools and society.
