八、阅读理解。(共10小题，每小题2分，共20分)
A
In the 1950s, a female swimming athlete set a goal for herself. She decided to swim across the English Channel before she retired. If she could make it, she would be the first person in the world who did it.
On that day, she jumped into the sea without any hesitation and swam towards the opposite bank.
In the journey, she faced heavy fog, heavy rain and heavy waves. Though she was very tired, she carried on swimming.
But in the end, she gave up. And what she didn't know at the moment she gave up was that the opposite bank was only 1 mile away.
Later people asked her about the reason. And she said，“The reason why I gave up is that I could not see the destination which I was so close to. ”
Too many stories about success have been lecturing us about courage and persistence(坚持). But they never told us where to find courage and persistence.
You can have courage only when you know where your goal is. You can manage to persist only when you know where your goal is，and prepare yourself well mentally(心理上).
Courage and persistence never fall from the sky. They come from weighing between input and output.
A life without goals is like a ship without a compass. It goes nowhere. There is no courage or persistence in a life without goals.
()46. In Paragraph 1, the underlined word “it” refers to ____.
A. being retired
B. swimming across the English Channel
C. swimming towards the bank
D. setting a goal
()47. ____ is not mentioned in the passage.
A. Fog
B. The wave
C. Rain
D. Wind
()48. The underlined word “weighing” in Paragraph 8 probably means ____.
A. 权衡
B. 有……重
C. 称重量
D. 有分量
()49. Why did the athlete give up? Because ____.
A. the bank was one mile away
B. she was too tired
C. she didn't have courage at first
D. she thought her destination was far away
()50. What can be inferred from the last sentence of the passage?
A. If you have courage and persistence, you have goals.
B. Even if you have no goals, you have courage to persist.
C. There is no courage or persistence unless you know your goals.
D. Between input and output, you must find courage and persistence.
B
Cars make our lives more convenient. But they can also be a problem. For example, fossil fuel(化石燃料) cars mainly cause air pollution.
To improve the environment, many countries are developing electric vehicles(EVs，电动车). Among them, China is taking a leading role and has created the world's largest EV market.
Last year, over 40 percent of the 753，000 EVs sold in the world were sold in China,
more than twice as large as the number sold in the United States.
“Filling up a fossil fuel car with gas(汽油) is more expensive than charging(充电) an electric car，” said Wu Hao, who bought an electric car this year.
However, there are still some problems. It can be hard to find charging piles(充电桩) and the cars can't go far before needing to be recharged.
Some of these problems are being solved. In 2014, China had 31，000 charging piles. Now China has the world's largest EV charging network, with more than 167，000 charging piles in total.
Developing EVs is one of many efforts that China has made to cut down pressure on its environment after the government promised to stop increases in carbon dioxide emissions(二氧化碳排放量) by 2030.
“As China goes, so will the world's car industry，” the Wall Street Journal said. China has taken a leading role in the world's electric vehicle industry.
()51. ____ mainly cause air pollution according to the passage.
A. Subways
B. Shared bikes
C. Electric vehicles
D. Fossil fuel cars
()52. Over ____ electric vehicles were sold in China last year.
A. 150，600
B. 167，000
C. 301，200
D. 753，000
()53. What did Wu Hao think of charging an electric car?
A. It's more expensive than filling up a fossil fuel car with gas.
B. It's less expensive than filling up a fossil fuel car with gas.
C. It's as expensive as filling up a fossil fuel car with gas.
D. It's as cheap as filling up a fossil fuel car with gas.
()54. Which country has the world's largest EV charging network now?
A. America.
B. Germany.
C. China.
D. England.
()55. What is the passage mainly about?
A. China has taken a leading role in the world's electric vehicle industry.
B. Electric cars will disappear in the future.
C. There is no problem using electric cars.
D. How to deal with air pollution.

Recently, news about the conflicts between teachers and students frequently appear on the media. Why is the relationship between teachers and students becoming so serious?
Different people have different ideas about it. In my opinion, teachers and students are lack of good communication. Some teachers only pay attention to the students' grades. Some teachers are too strict with the students. They ask the students to do this, not to do that, so students have too much pressure. Some students don't have good family education. They gradually become rude and impolite.
To solve this problem, teachers and students need to chat often and avoid misunderstanding. Teachers should care more about students' feelings and help them solve the problems in life. Little by little, they can build up an equal and friendly relationship. Besides, schools should often communicate with parents and ask parents to take part in school activities or talk about school events. Then they can know their children and the schools well.
All in all, understanding is a good way to solve the problems.
