It was a day before I started school again after having the world's best summer. I was puzzled standing at that bus stop, for I knew that after I stepped on that bus, my 1 would be gone for a long time.I never had friends at school. My parents always said that if you want to have friends, you have to be a friend. I did that, but it didn't 2 . I was still ignored( 忽视), I didn't want it to be the same way this year. Before I knew it, it was the 3 day of school.Then, the bus slowly 4 .The door opened, and I walked to the 5 o f the bus. As I passed the other kids，they would whisper and suddenly giggle. The bus trip seemed to take a long time 6 we reached the school. When we arrived, I walked to my classroom, and sat at the 7 in the very back of the classroom. It wasn’t that I disliked school, but I wasn’t a 8 of the kids at the school. I 9 listening to the teacher in class，but I didn't like it when the bell rang for 10 .I walked to an empty table，opened my lunch bag，and began to eat 11 .A girl with a friendly smile came over to my table.“What's your name?”she asked.“Rachael,” I said in a low voice.“I am Monica,”she said.

Then, 15 will ever be lonely in this world,” she said.Ever since those words have been said to me, I have lots of true friends.

But for “no-boundary( 无边界) classes” at Luwan Middle school in Shanghai, it is quite normal. In such classes, teachers work together and teach different kinds of knowledge in one class. The school has organized about 60 such classes.“We hope students can get a general u nderstanding of scien ce,” said He Li, headmaster of the school.What subject could go together? The school lets teachers decide. They have tried putting physics and music, physics and Chinese, and physics and chemistry together.To that question asked by the Chinese teacher, a physics teacher sitting near him gave the answer, “Sound waves deflect( 偏折)towards a lower temperature. At midnight, the ground is colder than the air. The sound waves deflect towards the ground. So we can hear a faraway sound much clearer.”“It was so interesting!” said Wang Yinkai, 14, from the school. “We didn’t think about any relationship between these subjects. But now in such classes, we learn to look at a question from different sides.”Li Zhiyuan, 14, said that these classes also help students m ake more friends. “Weoften do both chemistry and physics experiments in one class,” said Li. It’s q uitepossible that you’re good at one subject but not the other. “So we need each other’s help.”16.“How could the sound travel so far?” should be a question.A. ChineseB. musicC. chemistryD. physics17.It can be learned from Paragraph 4 that .A.the air is colder than the ground at midnightB.sound waves deflect towards a higher temperatureC.we can hear a faraway sound much better at midnightD.the sound waves deflect towards the air at midnight18.The “no-boundary classes” can help students .municate with other studentsb.look at a question from different sidesc.pay more attention to science and Chinesed.get different kinds of knowledge in one classA. abcB. bcdC. acdD. abd19.What does the passage mainly talk about?A. How to help each other.B. New organized classes.C. How to learn Chinese better.D. Differences between subjects.(B)Children in England will no longer be able to buy energy drinks. The UK government has made plans to ban(禁止) the sale of energy drinks to kids. It is now asking for public suggestions as to what age the ban should start at (16 or18), the BBC reported.An energy drink is a type of drink that contains stimulants(兴奋剂), such as caffeine. Red Bull is one of the most famous energy drinks. The makers of these drinks say that they can give you energy when you feel tired. However, these drinks have very high levels of sugar and caffeine. Energy drinks have 65 percent more sugar than normal soft drinks. This may explain why obesity(肥胖) rates have risen among children.Too much caffeine can lead to health problems, such as headaches and sleeplessness. A 250mlcan of Red Bull contains about 80 mg of caffeine, three times the level of a can of Coca-Cola, The Guardian noted.In the UK, more than two-thirds of 10-to-17-year-olds buy energy drinks, according to government data. “Childhood obesity is one of the greatest health challenges this country faces. It's important that we do all we can to make sure children have the best start in life,” UK Prime Minister Theresa May said in a statement.The ban would apply to( 应用于)drinks containing more than 150 mg of caffeine per liter. Under the ban, shops in England that sell the drinks to children would face fines of up to ₤ 2,500(22,070 yuan).20.From the first paragraph, we can learn that .A.Britain has banned the sale of energy drinks to kidsB.the UK government hasn't decided what age the ban should start atC.kids of all ages will no longer buy any energy drinksD.children in the UK can’t buy energy drinks at the moment21.Which of the following mainly leads to children's obesity according to the passage?A. StimulantsB. CaffeineC. SugarD. Energy22.According to the ban, what kind of drinks are allowed to sell to children?A.Drinks that contain 80 mg of caffeineB.Drinks that contain 65 mg of caffeineC.Drinks with less than 150 mg caffeine per liter.D.Drinks with more than 150 mg caffeine per liter23.What can we learn from the passage?A.The ban will be carried out around the worldB.Energy drinks do a lot of harm to children's healthC.The UK will ban the sale of all drinks to childrenD.Shops that are against the ban would not be punished(C)“What is success?’’ Mr. Gruber asked his 6th grade busin ess class. It was his opening conversation for the first class of the term.“Success is riding in a sweet car, watching an 80-inch TV, and living in a place with at least twelve rooms.’’ One student answered, earning (博得) laughs from all the students.Mr. Gruber smiled, but shook his head. “Tom, that is excess(过量). That is not success.”“How about being able to provide for your family?’’ A blonde girl named Sandy in the front suggested as an answer.“Now we’re getting closer,’’ Mr. Gruber smiled,“but try thinking about what you need and what you want.”“Getting everything you want.’’ Tom shouted out an answer again, trying for more laughs. Mr. Gruber sighed “I believe we’ve already talked about excess versus(与…比较) success.”“Getting everything you need, but some of what you want.”James, sitting in the back wondered aloud.“ Quite right! ’’ Mr. Gruber clapped. “Success is getting everything you need and some of what you want. The more you get that you want, the more successful you are. You do reach a point where you are living in excess, though.”“What does this have to do with business?’’ Tom asked. It seemed if it wasn’t funny, he wasn’t happy.“Well, Tom, think of it this way: the point of business is to make a living to support your family. Once you have properly seen to (确保) your needs, you can then see to getting the extras that you want.”“What if I don’t have a family?’’ he continued to be difficult.“Then you have to provide for yourself, a family of one.”“He has goldfish to think about!’’ Peter, Tom’s friend, shouted out.“Then he needs to provide for a family of one with a fishbowl.’’ Mr. Gruber corrected himself. Tom nodded, satisfied with that answer.24.Which student didn’t seem to be taking the class seriously?A. TomB. JamesC. PeterD. Sandy25.How did Mr. Gruber make his class lively and interesting?A.He kept explaining things clearly.B.He just read from a textbook.C.He taught humorously and friendly.D.He got his students to take part in a discussion.26.Which word can best describe Mr. Gruber according to the passage?A. StrangeB. PatientC. StrictD. Honest27.What can be the best title of this passage?A. Get What You WantB. Needs and WantsC. Try to Get More MoneyD. How to Live Well(D)It's winter in Siberia in the east of Russia. Lake Baikal is frozen. If you want to get to Olkhon Island, more than a kilometer out from the shore ( 岸), you can’t take a boat. You have to drive across the ice. But don’ t worry —the ice is about 60 centimeters thick. Just try not to think about how much water is below you. Try to forget that you’re traveling over the deepest lake in the world.At its deepest, Lake Baikal is 1,642 meters deep. It is more than 640 kilometers long. The lake is about twenty-five million years old. On either side of it, there are mountains which are very slowly moving apart—by about 2 centimeters each year.Around the beginning of the twentieth century, the Trans-Siberian Railway was built, crossing Russia from west to east. Before then, it was a long way to travel to Lake Baikal, so it was quite an isolated place. Building the railroad along the shore of the lake was a big and difficult job, but it allowed more people to visit the area.Olkhon is the largest island in the lake. For the local people of this area the Buryat people, it is a sacred(神圣的) place. For the Buryats, Lake Baikal is not simply a lake. It is Baikal, the father of 337 daughters. These daughters are all the rivers and streams around the lake. In a Buryat legend ( 传说), one of the daughters, Angara, ran away from the family. That explains why the Angara River runs out of the lake while her 336 “sisters” run into it.Lake Baikal is usually frozen from January to May. When the weather gets warmer and the ice breaks, visitors can take a boat to Olkhon to enjoy the quiet beauty of this place.28.When it is frozen, the ice on Lake Baikal is about centimeters thick.A. 2B. 60C. 640D. 164229.The underlined word “isolated” in Paragraph3 means .A. richB. lonelyC. beautifulD. convenient30.From the passage, we know that .A.Olkhon is the largest island in RussiaB.the Angara River runs into the Lake BaikalC.visitors can’t take a boat to Olkhon in MarchD.there are 336 rivers and streams around the Lake Baikal31.What’s the main purpose of the passage?A.To describe a beautiful place in Siberia.B.To describe a legend about the Lake Baikal.C.To explain how the Lake Baikal was formed.D.To explain how the Trans-Siberian Railway was built.(E)Who needs guard dogs when you have wolves, right? That’s probably what Kazakh villagers in the Almaty thought when they decided to replace their dogs with the scary forest-living beasts. According to local news reports, taming(驯养的) wolves are now the latest trend(趋势) and a hobby among the countryside of Kazakhs. “You can buy a wolf cub(幼兽) for just $500, they say, and hunters are determined that if treated well, the wild animal can be tamed.” the KTK television channel reported. Nurseit Zhylkyshybay, a farmer from the south-eastern Almaty, told reporters that he bought a wolf cub from hunters three years ago, and the animal is now perfectly trained.Kurtka, Nurseit’s pet wolf, lives in the family’s yard and takes long walks through the village with his master. Nurseit insisted, “I seldom put him on a chain and do take him for walks around the village. Our family and neighbors aren’t scared of him at all. If the wolf is well fed and cared for, hewon’t attack you, although he does eat a lot more than a dog.”But wolf expert Almas Zhaparov said that the animals are ‘far too dangerous’ to keep at home. “A wolf is like a ticking bomb, and it can go off at any moment,” he warned. “If nothing i s done, the fashion could spread to the wealthy Kazakhs, who might try to keep wolves in the grounds of their houses, with possibly deadly results.” Social media users also expressed worries over the trend, asking the government to limit the practice.Neve rtheless, the wolves don’t seem to become an immediate problem. If visuals from news reports are anything to go by, the beasts look pretty happy with their new lifestyle, and appear quite fond of their new masters, not unlike dogs.This isn’t the first time we’ve heard of taming wolves in former Soviet Union countries. A few months ago, we wrote about a Belarusian family that has managed to train some wild wolves and are now raising them as pets.32. What can we learn from paragraph 1?A. It is cheaper to keep a wolf as a pet than a dog.B. Many farmers like to feed wolves in the Almaty.C. Many wealthy people begin to feed wolves.D. It’s easy to train wolves for villagers in the Almaty .33. The writer uses the example of Kurka to show that ?A. Wolves can be tamed.B. Wolves are like ticking bombs.C. Wolves like living with humans.D. Keeping wolves at home is easy.34. The government was advised to by some media users. A. allow the rich to have wolvesB. tame the wolves for some useC. take steps to reduce wolvesD. make some ticking bombs35. Why does the writer write the passage?A. To persuade people to keep wolves.B. To report a fashion of keeping wolves.C. To blame people for their keeping wolves.D. To call on people to raise more wolves.三、词汇运用（本题有 15 小题，每小题 1 分；共计 15 分）A . 根据句子及所给汉语注释，36. Tianyige Museum always （使想起）us of our rich and colorful cultural pasts.. 37.

They found that teenagers could get higher marks in math if they studied in the morning and better grades in history if they were taught in the afternoon.The researchers did a study at a secondary school in Bulgaria over nine years. The results showed that when teenagers had math classes earlier in the day, they scored on average (平均) 7 percent higher in tests than when taught in the afternoon. Lower-ability students did worst when they were studying math in the afternoon.In history, students taught in the afternoon scored on average 6 percent higher than when they were taught in the morning. However, it doesn’t work for other subjects such as languages or geography.Velichka Dimitrova, leader of the study, said the findings show that we do better at different times of the day.“In the morning, our brains are better and fresher, so we are better at doing something that repeats a lot like problem solving, where we require more speed and attention,” Dimitrova told The Telegraph.“In the afternoon, it seems that this process (过程) slows down. On the other hand, history is better suitable for the afternoon, when we are more creative and open to discussion,” she said.Subjects such as foreign languages require both memory and repetition (重复), and they also need people to be creative. This is perhaps why the time of day has no influence on learning.Time-of-day effects such as those are believed to be connected to the body clock. This is the system in our bodies that controls when we need to sleep.

She was sitting high with her eyes closed, skin still wet from the shower, and her messy hair behind her back.I realized she was taking in every touch from my hands. It was the last time for a week that our bodies would connect. Today, I would send Sally away for a week of summer camp. She didn’t ask to go. This was all my idea. She’s nearly 12, and I notice that I’m with my child nearly 24 hours a day.Living on a farm without any neigh bors, I’ve chosen a life that is quieter than a usual family’s. But instead of requiring space away from me, Sally has increasingly depended on me.What worries me most is that she has become a “mini-me”. She follows my hobbies, my dreams, and my opinions. And that was why I pulled her to the summer camp, a nearby wilderness (荒野) camp called Hawk Circle.After we ate, I drove Sally to Hawk Circle. Once there, we got a tour of the grounds and were introduced to other campers. Sally stood by the group of children, holding my hand, horror in her eyes, trying to work up the courage to join a game of soccer. “I need you for a few more minutes,” she t old me, holding my hand tightly (紧紧地).I pulled away and walked up to one of the camp’s workers. “Excuse me,” I s aid loudly, “I’d like to introduce you to my daughter. Maybe you could help her meet a few of these kids.” He came over to talk to Sally, and I kissed her and then I disappeared before she realized I was gone.On my way home, I felt a piece of my soul had been taken from my body. I began to shake. The tears (泪水) came down my face. It took every bit of my strength to keep driving forward.When I arrived home, I calmed down and reminded myself why I chose this path. I thought to myself, “I want Sally to have a chance to find herself, out of my shadow. I don’t want to see only myself in my child. I want to learn who she is. If I don’t set her free, I fear I’ll never really meet her real personality.”After 12 years of being together, I want to finally meet my daughter for the first time.11.
