Do you remember the name of your kindergarten(幼儿园) teacher? I do. Her name was Mrs. White.
I don’t remember much about what we learned in her 36 , but my mother once told me we used to 37 a lot. And I would 38 what I wrote and she would look at it and see there were so many 39 . But no red corrections. And always a star. Sometimes a “Good”! That made my heart filled with 40 , but worried my mother. So one day when she met Mrs. White, she asked her why she never 41 my mistakes; why she never red-penciled in the wrong 42 of words or pointed out grammatical errors.
My mother said Mrs. White said “The children are just 43 to get excited about using words, about 44 sentences. I don’t want to dampen(减弱) that 45 with red ink. Spelling and grammar can 46 . The wonder of words won’t…” And maybe she didn’t 47 it exactly like that because it was a long time ago and 48 my mother told me was just what she could remember.
Thanks to Mrs. White, I 49 up learning to use words with loving 50 . I had no qualms(顾虑) about writing what I meant 51 I couldn’t quite spell it out. A thought comes into my mind that if Mrs. White had used her red pen precisely(精确地), I 52 wouldn’t be telling you about this now. I look 53 now and think she must have been a rather 54 teacher—to exercise such red-pen-restraint(不纠错)—to 55 the joy, wonder and excitement of expression.

EDGEWOOD - Every morning at Dixie Heights High School, customers pour into a special experiment: th e district’s first coffee shop run mostly by students with special learning needs.
Well before classes start, students and teachers order Lattes, Cappuccinos and Hot Chocolates. Then, during the first period, teachers call in orders on their room phones, and students make deliveries.
By closing time at 9.20 a.m., the shop usually sells 90 drinks.
“Whoever made the chi tea, Ms. Schatzman says it was good," Christy McKinley, a second year student, announced recently, after hanging up with the teacher.
The shop is called the Dixie PIT, which stands for Power in Transition. Although some of the students are not disabled, many are, and the PIT helps them prepare for life after high school.
They learn not only how to run a coffee shop but also how to deal with their affairs. They keep a timecard and receive paychecks, which they keep in check registers.
Special-education teachers Kim Chevalier and Sue Casey introduced the Dixie PIT from a similar program at Kennesaw Mountain High School in Georgia.
Not that it was easy. Chevalier's first problem to overcome was product-related. Should schools be selling coffee? What about sugar content?
Kenton County Food Service Director Ginger Gray helped. She made sure all the drinks, which use non-fat milk, fell within nutrition (营养) guidelines.
The whole school has joined in to help.
Teachers agreed to give up their lounge (休息室) in the mornings. Art students painted the name of the shop on the wall. Business students designed the paychecks. The basketball team helped pay for cups.
59. What is the text mainly about?
A. A best-selling coffee.
B. A new type of teacher-student relationship.
C. Government support for schools.
D. A special educational program.
60. The Dixie PIT program was introduced in order to__________．
A. develop students' practical skills
B. do some research on nutrition
C. raise money for school affairs
D. supply teachers with drinks
61. How did Christy McKinley know Ms. Schatzman's opinion of the chi tea?
A. She met her in the shop.
B. She talked to her on the phone.
C. She heard her telling others.
D. She went to her office to deliver the tea.
62. We know from the text that Ginger Gray ．
A. manages the Dixie P1T program in Kenton County
B. teaches at Dixie Heights High School
C. sees that the drinks meet health standards
D. owns the school’s coffee shop

Along the river banks of the Amazon and the Orinoco there lives a bird that swims before it can fly, flies like a fat chicken, eats green leaves, has the stomach of a cow and has claws (爪) on its wings when young. They build their homes about 4.6m above the river, an important feature (特征) for the safety of the young. It is called the hoatzin.
In appearance, the birds of both sexes look very much alike with brown on the back and cream and red on the underside. The head is small, with a large set of feathers on the top, bright red eyes, and blue skin. Its nearest relatives are the common birds, cuckoos. Its most striking feature, though, is only found in the young.
Baby hoatzins have a claw on the leading edge of each wing and another at the end of each wing tip. Using these four claws, together with the beak (喙), they can climb about in the bushes, looking very much like primitive birds must have done. When the young hoatzins have learned to fly, they lose their claws.
During the drier months between December and March hoatzins fly about the forest in groups of 20 to 30 birds, but in April, when the rainy season begins, they collect together in smaller living units of two to seven birds for producing purposes.
63. What is the text mainly about?
A. Hoatzins in dry and rainy seasons.
B. The relatives and enemies of hoatzins.
C. The appearance and living habits of hoatzins.
D. Primitive birds and hoatzins of the Amazon.
64. Young hoatzins are different from their parents in that ．
A. they have claws on the wings
B. they look like young cuckoos
C. they eat a lot like a cow
D. they live on river banks
65. What can we infer about primitive birds from the text?
A. They had four wings like hoatzins.
B. They could fly long distances.
C. They had claws to help them climb.
D. They had a head with long feathers on the top.
66. Why do hoatzins collect together in smaller groups when the rainy season comes?
A. To produce their young.
B. To protect themselves better.
C. To keep themselves warm.
D. To find more food.

Science can’t explain the power of pets, but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure (血压) and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack, reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer.
Any owner will tell you how much joy a pet brings. For some, an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife. A study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress (紧张) levels and blood pressure in people – half of them pet owners –while they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic (算术) or held a hand in ice water. Subjects(被试验者) completed the tasks alone, with a husband/wife, a close friend or with a pet. People with pets did it best. Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates. With pets in the room, people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions. It seems people feel more relaxed around pets, says Allen, who thinks it may be because pets don’t judge.
A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits. Researchers at Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36 fat people and their equally fat dogs on diet-and-exercise programs; a separate group of 56 people without pets were put on a diet program. On average, people lost about 11 pounds, or 5% of their body weight. Their dogs did even better, losing an average of 12 pounds, more than 15% of their body weight. Dog owners didn’t lose any more weight than those without dogs but, say researchers, got more exercise overall—mostly with their dogs - and found it worth doing.
67. What does the text mainly discuss?
A. Pet’s value in medical research.
B. How pets help people calm down.
C. People's opinions of keeping pets.
D. What pets bring to their owners.
68. We learn from the text that a person with heart disease has a better chance of getting well if _________.
A. he has less stress of work
B. he has a pet companion
C. he often does mental arithmetic
D. he is taken care of by his family
69. According to Allen, why did the people do better with pets around when facing stressful tasks?
A. They have lower blood pressure.
B. They become more patient.
C. They are in higher spirits.
D. They are less nervous.
70. The research mentioned in the last paragraph reports that __________.
A. dogs liked exercise much more than people did
B. dogs lost the same weight as people did
C. people with dogs did more exercise
D. people without dogs found the program unhelpful

There were smiling children all the way. Clearly they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway, wave to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang. Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favorite relatives. This is the simple village people of Malaysia. I was moved.
I had always traveled to Malaysia by plane or car, so this was the first time I was on a train. I
did not particularly relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread. I looked about the train. There was not one familiar face. I sighed and sat down to read my Economics.
It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia. Johore Baru was just another city like Singapore, so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past. As we went beyond the city, I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles and miles of green. Then the first village came into sight. Immediately I came alive; I decided to wave back.
From then on my journey became interesting. I threw my magazines into the waste basket and decided to join in Malaysian life. Then everything came alive. The mountains seemed to speak to me. Even the trees were smiling. I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time.
The day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry. I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3:00 pm. Soon the train pulled up at Butterworth. I looked at the people all around me. They all looked beautiful. When my uncle arrived with a smile, I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug (拥抱). I had never done this before. He seemed surprised and then his weather-beaten face warmed up with a huge smile. We walked arm in arm to his car.
I looked forward to the return journey.
71. The author expected the train trip to be _________.
A. boring
B. pleasant
C. exciting
D. adventurous
72. What did the author remember most fondly of her train trip?
A. The mountains along the way.
B. The friendly country people.
C. The crowds of people in the streets.
D. The simple lunch served on the train.
73. Which of the following words can best take the place of the word "relish" in the second paragraph?
A. choose
B. carry on
C. prepare for
D. enjoy
74. Where was the writer going?
A. Butterworth.
B. The Causeway.
C. Johore Baru.
D. Singapore.
75. What can we learn from the story?

Form a Good Habit
Some students are often late for class because they get up late. Getting up late is a bad habit. It not only affects their studies but is also bad for their health, for they don’t have enough time to have breakfast.
On the other hand, getting up early will bring you a number of benefits. First, it can help you be healthy. The air in the morning is fresh and doing some sports can make you stronger. Second, it can be of great help to your study. The fresh air and quietness in the morning make you memorize what you have learned more easily. Besides, it does good to your character-training. Some students can get up early while others can not. This needs perseverance.
As an English saying goes, “Early to bed, and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.” I hope everyone will form/develop a good habit of getting up early!
