It was a strange place. Martin and Tom wished that they had not accepted Jack's dare. They liked camping, but not near this swamp.“So,”Martin asked as they sat watching the hot coals. “How did this place get its name?”“Are you sure you want to hear it? It's a scary story,” warned Jack.“Of course!” cried out Tom. “If there were anything to be scared of, you wouldn't have chosen this place!”“OK, but don't say I didn't warn you,” said Jack, and he began this tale.Way back in time, a man called Dennis tried to start a farm here. He built that cottage over there to live in. In those days, the area looked quite different —it was covered with tall trees and the swamp was a crystal-clear river. After three hard years, Dennis had cleared several fields and planted crops. He was so proud of his success that he refused to listen to advice.You are clearing too much land, warned one old man. The land is a living thing. It will hit back at you if you abuse it.Silly fool, said Dennis to himself. If I clear more land, I can grow more crops. I'll become wealthier. He's just jealous!“De nnis continued to chop down trees. Small animals that relied on them for food and shelter were destroyed. He was so eager to expand his farm that he did not notice the river flowing slowly towards his door. He did not notice salt seeping to the surface of the land. He did not notice swamp plants choking all the native plants.”“What happened?”Martin asked. It was growing colder. He trembled, twisting his body closer to the fire.“The land hit back — just as the old man warned,”Jack shrugged. “Dennis disap peared. Old folks around here believe that swamp plants moved up from the river and dragged him underwater. His body was never found.”“What a stupid story,” laughed Tom. “Plants can't…” Before he had finished speaking, he screamed and fainted (晕倒). The other two boys jumped up with fright, staring at Tom. Suddenly, they burst out laughing. Some green swamp ivy (常春藤) had covered Tom's face. It was a while before Tom could appreciate the joke.1. The underlined word “dare” in Paragraph 1 is closest in mean ing to ______.A. courageB. assistanceC. instructionD. challenge2. Why did Jack tell Tom and Martin the story?A. To frighten them.B. To satisfy their curiosity.C. To warn them of the danger of the place.D. To persuade them to camp in the swamp.3. Why did Dennis ignore the warning of the old man?A. The old man envied him.B. The old man was foolish.C. He was too busy to listen to others.D. He was greedy for more crops.4. Why did Tom scream and faint?A. He saw Dennis's shadow.B. He was scared by a plant.C. His friends played a joke on him.D. The weather became extremely cold.5. What lesson can we learn from the story of Dennis?A. Grasp all, lose all.B. No sweat, no sweet.C. It is no use crying over spilt milk.D. He who makes no mistakes makes nothing.Ⅳ.阅读简答(2014·雅礼高三月考一) David Jones is probably not somebody you want to hang out with. Not because he isn't a cool person, but because he is living with 40 deadly snakes.Jones is living in a room for 121 days with more than three dozen constrictors, green mambas, boomslangs and other deadly snakes in an attempt to set a Guinness world record. The record for most days spent confined to a room with this particular number of snakes is 113, set by Martin Smith in 2008.“I am hoping people will realize that we can live with these fantastic creatures without fearing and killing them. People come and see me here and are constantly amazed at how I am interact with these animals. The snakes are not restrained in any way and make the full use of the entire room including my bed, shower and toilet,” Jones explains. They mainly hide out in cupboards or on the various makeshift (临时的)branches or bushes that Jones has in their shared quarters. Once a week, someone brings captured mice and rats to offer as a sacrifice to the snakes.David Jones is forced to move the snakes with a “hook stick” throughout the day, so that he can do things like sitting at his desk or typing on his laptop, his only means of contacting the outside world.The snakes often drop on his pillow or shoulders as he's trying to work or sleep, but there have so far been no instances of Jones being bitten by one of these deadly snakes. He said, “if I give them respect, we can live together happily.”Jones is doing this for charity. All the money raised will go to a hospice(收容所) in his hometown of Crawley, near London.1.

I learned what it is to understand, to be open to new people and way of life. That Sunday, I met the girl and her brother again, who came to the church to share their tomatoes and fresh watermelons. This family, whose livelihoods (生计) were __6__ on selling tomatoes, took precious time out to allow us to enjoy their __7__. They made sense of the joy of life far better than any of us teenagers from the city. I seemed to have everything, yet it was I who had so __8__ to learn.

Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity. Others say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people. I have taught many children who held the belief that their selfworth relied (依赖)on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often lifeanddeath affairs. In their singleminded pursuit(追求) of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among the_most_vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people. I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesn't matter because I really didn't try.” What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot. Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that one's selfrespect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve (缓解) can we discover a new meaning in competition.1. What does this passage mainly talk about?A. Competition helps to set up selfrespect.B. Opinions about competition are different among people.C. Competition is harmful to personal quality development.D. Failures are necessary experiences in competition.2. Why do some people favor competition according to the passage?A. It pushes society forward.B. It builds up a sense of duty.C. It improves personal abilities.D. It encourages individual efforts.3. The underlined phrase “the most vocal” in Paragraph 3 means ______.A. those who try their best to winB. those who value competition most highlyC. those who are against competition most stronglyD. those who rely on others most for success4. Wh at is the similar belief of the true competitors and those with a “desire to fail”?A. One's worth lies in his performance compared with others'.B. One's success in competition needs great efforts.C. One's achievement is determined by his particular skills.D. One's success is based on how hard he has tried.5. Which point of view may the author agree to?A. Every effort should be paid back.B. Competition should be encouraged.C. Winning should be a lifeanddeath matter.D. Fear of failure should be removed in competition.Ⅳ.阅读简答Distance Learning (DL) is an instructional delivery system that connects learners with educational resources. It provides educational access mainly for learners who are not enrolled in educational institution.DL has become one of the most preferred activities for different people. This has happened because many people face an immense lack of time due to which they do not find it practical to find time for regular classes. With DL, it is very convenient for them to complete their course work from anywhere, provided there is a computer and Internet connection. This allows them to participate in different classes on an individualized basis without having to squeeze in scheduled classes to an already busy life. In addition, there's a wide range of choices. It offers a wide variety of materials and schools that can meet different people's learning preference. Thirdly, DL offers students the flexibility to schedule classes. They can control the subjects they want to study, the schedule of their studies as well as the speed at which the studies are to be taken.One of the disadvantages of DL is the lack of social interaction. When distance learners take courses through this method, they may miss out classroom discussions and individualized instruction. Most often they will be studying alone and feel isolated. Secondly, DL does not offer immediate feedback. In a traditional classroom setting, a student's performance can be immediately assessed through questions and informal testing. But with DL, a student has to wait for feedbacks until the instructor has reviewed their work and responded to it. Thirdly, there are unavoidable accompanying costs. For online learning, you must own a computer and other equipment needed, as well as the access to Internet service.Although certain employers don't acknowledge DL, it grows in popularity and it becomes a more respected educational alternative. Through DL, more and more students become welleducated and selfmotivated, leading them to be the best route to landa better job as well as get an earlier promotion.1. Who is DL mainly intended for? (No more than 8 words)________________________________________________________________________2. List three advantages of distance learning. (No more than 8 words)________________________________________________________________________3. According to the passage, why will distance learner feel isolated when studying alone?(No more than 10 words)________________________________________________________________________4. What might happen to distance learners in their careers when they finish their study?(No more than 11 words)________________________________________________________________________Module 9Unit 1 & Unit 2Ⅰ.1.

She and other teachershope the program will help students become successful.Ⅲ.阅读理解(原创)According to guidelines by the National Education Associatio n (NEA), a student should be assigned no more than 10 minute s per grade level per night. This means that a student in my gra de should have no more than 70 minutes of homework each nig ht. Yet this is often doubled, sometimes even tripled!As a result of too much homework, kids are developing more sc hoolrelated stomachaches, headaches, sleep problems, and de pression than ever before. In addition, students miss out on mu ch active playtime, essential for learning social skills, proper bra in development, and keeping off childhood obesity. Too much h omework is also weakening students' curiosity, and most import antly, their love of learning. Is that really what teachers and par ents want?Is homework really necessary? Most teachers assign homewor k as a drill to improve memorization of material. While drills and repetitive exercises have their place in schools, homework may not be that place. If a student does a math worksheet with 50 p roblems but completes them incorrectly, he will likely fail the tes t. Practicing dozens of homework problems incorrectly only cem ents(强化) the wrong method.However, if schools assign less homework, it would benefit teac hers, parents, and students alike. Teachers who assign large a mounts of homework are often unable to do more than spotche ck answers. This means that many errors are missed. Teachers who assign less homework, however, will be able to check thes e mistakes thoroughly. In addition, it allows a teacher time to fo cus on more important things. A student who is assigned less h omework will live a healthy and happy life. The family can look f orward to stressfree, carefree nights.Some schools are already taking steps to improve the issue. Fo r example, JohnsonMike Elementary School and MasonRice El ementary School in , , have limited homework, keeping to the “1 0minute rule”. Raymond Park Middle School in has written a po licy instructing teachers to “assign homework only when you fee l the assignment is valuable”. Others, such as Oak Knoll Eleme ntary School in , , have eliminated homework altogether. If thes e schools can do it, why can't everyone?So, my fellow Americans, it's time to stop the insanity. It's time t o start a homework revolution.1. We can infer that the author is ______.A. a math teacherB. a worried parentC. a strict headmasterD. a seventhgrade student2. How much time does the author often spend in doing his/her homework each night?A. About 35 minutes.B. About 70 minutes.C. Over 140 minutes.D. About 250 minutes.3. What is the main idea of the second paragraph?A. Some negative effects of too much homework.B. Healthy problems caused by too much homework.C. Active playtime essential for learning social skills.D. Some positive effects of proper homework.4. According to the author, students should finish drills and repe titive exercises ______.A. during class breaksB. during school timeC. at noonD. at night5. Students don't have to do any homework at ______.A. JohnsonMike Elementary SchoolB. MasonRice Elementary SchoolC.D.Ⅳ.阅读简答A satellite built by engineering students was sent up into space last week.Matt Bennett and his colleagues at the University of Michigan, US, made history as the first students at their college to build th eir own satellite and have it launched into space, according to t he Detroit Free Press.It took Bennett's team two years to design, build and improve th e Radio Aurora Explorer( RAX) satellite. In the past two years, Bennett devoted almost all his spare time to the research. He m et with a lot of difficulties, but he was determined to go on with t he research with the help and encouragement of his team. The satellite weighs only 6.5 pounds (3 kilograms) and is about the size of a loaf of bread. The satellite was designed to study s pace weather. Turbulent(恶劣多变的) weather often disrupts communication between ground net work station and satellites.Bennett came up with the idea for the project in a program of th e American National Science Foundation, which provides fundi ng for space weather and atmospheric research.The students involved were all undergraduates and were inspir ed and helped by their professors.However, Bennett said that the experience counted more than t he final launch. “We got to see it come from a blueprint(蓝图) all the way to a final product,” said Bennett, the student te am leader. “It's a valuable experience that few engineers get.”Bennett, now a graduate engineer, works for NASA's Jet Propul sion Laboratory.Last week the student satellite blasted into space. It shared a ri de on a 78feet(23meter) rocket with six other satellites which ar e conducting experiments for the military, NASA and universitie s.1.

But Michelle Pawlaw is glad she signed up for it. “Getting to experience the fires handson(亲自动手的)is really cool and something that most people don't get to do,〞 she said.Michelle and e ight other teenage girls are participating in the threeday camp offered by the Arlington County Fire Department located just outside of Washington. Firefighter Clare Burley is in charge of the program. “The purpose is to try to get young women interested in considering the fire service as a career,〞 she said.The free of charge, overnight camp is designed to let the girls experience what firefighters do in the line of duty to protect the community. They take classes and learn how to climb the ladder on a fire truck, operate emergency tools and rescue an injured person. They also do their share of cleaning the firehouse and the equipment.Firefighting is sti ll a maledominated service, but Burley says with 32 women on its force of 320 the Arlington Fire Department is above the national average of 4.5 percent. She joined the department seven years ago. “Women are generally weaker than men physically, but we do everything that the guys do to the same standard. We are tested to the same standard. We are expected to operate at the same standard,〞she said.The girls help the crew on duty prepare for dinner. It is also part of the program. “B ecause the kitchen is a very important part of a firefighter's life. We work 24 hours together, seven days a week. We cook here, we sleep here. We usually have breakfast and dinner together. That's how we build teamwork,〞 said Officer Robert Beer.Most of the girls say they had never thought about becoming a firefighter, butthe camp was a great learning experience. “I think it is definitely not a job that only men can do. Women can do it just as well as men can,〞 said Michelle Pawlaw. “I think I can help other people if they need help and know what to do in case I am at a fire myself,〞 said Kayla Ehrlich. And, the girls say, by spending three days together, they also made new friends and had a lot of fun.1. How many teenage girls are participating in the firefighting camp?A. Eight.B. Nine.C. Ten.D.

Cyberbullying is the use of technology to threaten or harm another person. Cyberbullying involves using devices like mobile phones and computers.Cyberbullying can happen at any time, no matter where you are. It is very hard to avoid. Sometimes cyberbullying is easy to spot —for example, a child receives a text message that is harsh. Other acts are less obvious, like insulting a victim online or posting personal information, photos, or videos designed to hurt another person.It is found that 22% of teenagers in the UK have suffered from cyberbullying. As more and more young people have access to computers and cell phones, the chance of cyberbullying is likely to rise.Cyberbullyi ng has a bad effect on teenagers. Severe cyberbullying can leave victims at greater risk for anxiety and depression. In some rare cases, some kids have even turned to suicide.The signs that a ch ild is being cyberbullied vary, such as emotional distress(悲痛)during or after using the Internet or the phone, avoidance of school or group gatherings, or slipping academic grades.If you discove r that your child is being cyberbullied, talk to him or her about any experiences you have had in your childhood. This can help your child feel less alone. Let your child know that it's not his or her fault. Reporting to teachers also may help. You can block the bully(欺人者)electronically as well. Most devices have settings that allow you to electronically block emails, or text messages fromspecific people.Title: 1.__________Ⅰ.

It has little to do with the usual challenges, such as flood, rising fuel prices and cropeating insects. The country's farmers are getting older, and there are fewer people standing in line to take their place. National agricultural census (普查) figures s how that the fastestgrowing group of farmers is the part over 65. Merrigan is afraid the average age will be even higher when the 2014 statistics are completed.Merrigan, a former college professor, is making stops at universities across the country in hopes of encouraging more students to think about careers in agriculture. Aside from trying to stop the graying of America's farmers, her work is made tougher by a recent blog posting that put agriculture at No.1 on a list of “useless〞 college degrees. Top federal agriculture officials are talking about the posting, and it has the attention of agricultural organizations across the country.“There couldn't be anything that's more incorrect,〞Merrigan said. “We know that there aren't enough qualified graduates to fill the jobs that are out there in American agriculture.〞In addition, a growing world population that some experts predict will require 70% more food production by 2050, she said.“I truly beli eve we're at a golden age of agriculture. Global demand is at an alltime record high, and global supplies are at alltime record lows,〞said Matt Rush, director of the Texas Farm Bureau. “Production costs are going to be valuable enough that younger people are going to have the opportunity to be involved in agriculture.〞The Department of Agriculture has programs aimed at developing more farmers and at increasing interest in locally grown food. The National Young Farmers' Coalition has also been pushing for state and federal policy changes to make it easier fornew farmers.Ryan Best, president of Future Farmers of America, has been living out of a suitcase, traveling the country and visiting with high school students about careers in agriculture. The 21yearold Best hopes his message — that this is a new time in agriculture —will motivate the next generation to_turn_around_the_statistics. “Never before have we had the innovations(创新) in technology which have led to agriculture in this country being the most efficient it has ever been,〞 he said. “There's really a place for everybody to fit in.〞1. What is the new challenge to American agriculture?A. Fewer and older farmers.B. Higher fuel prices.C. More natural disasters.D. Lower agricultural output.2. Why is Merrigan visiting universities across the country?A. To draw federal agriculture officials' attention.B. To select qualified agriculture graduates.C. To clarify a recent blog posting.D. To talk more students into farming careers.3. According to Matt Rush, American agriculture will provide opportunities for younger people because ______.A. the government will cover production costsB. global food supplies will be even lowerC. investment in agriculture will be profitableD. America will increase its food export4. What is Ryan Best?A. a Deputy Agriculture SecretaryB. president of Future Farmers of AmericaC. a former college professorD. a college student5. What do the unde rlined words “to turn around the statistics〞 in the last paragraph mean?A. To reanalyze the result of the national ce nsus.B. To increase agricultural production.C. To bring down the average age of farmers.D. To invest more in agriculture.Ⅳ.阅读填空(每空不超过三个单词)Society is a web of relationships, requiring all parties(群体) to work together to create something good. What makes society work best are effective(有效的) relationships that are based on mutual(相互的) understanding. If you understand what people want and why they want it, you can usually find a way to make progress together.Highquality rel ationships make people happy. Some people living in the poorest communities have almost nothing but turn out to be the happiest because they share a life, together. If effective relationships are working, happiness is always possible.Here are some simple tips for building effective relationships.Listen to and try to understand others' positions and feelings. Listening in itself can lead to understanding, and if you understand someone else fully, then you know how to work better with him or her.Openly express your needs and feelings. Sometimes we expect people particularly those close to us at home or work to understand what we want and to give us what we need intuitively (凭直觉地). However, people are so complicated and so differentthat even when they have lived together for 60 years, they can still surprise each other. So we need to say what we need and to express how we feel.In order to make our relationships more effective, we should treat ourselves and other people with respect. Respect is one of the most important elements of any good relationship.Finally, learn to face differences correctly. Learning this takes time and can be uncomfortable. However, if we can try to remove differences in an effective way, we are more likely to build exciting and satisfying relationships with others.By doing these things you may discover that the happiness you long for is much closer than you thought.Module 5Unit 1Ⅰ.1.

The trees in the school yard would be in full leaf again and the old leaves would be lying around like a muddy sea of leaves.“Get that all swept up!” the headmaster would tell us. “I want the whole place cleaned up, at once!” There was enough work there, to last over a week. Especially since the only tools with which we were provided were our hands, our fingers, our nails. “Now see that it's done properly, and be quick about it,” the headmaster would say to the older pupils, “or you'll have to answer for it!”So at an order from the older boys we would all line up like peanuts about to cut and gather in crops. If the work was not going as quickly as the headmaster expected, the big boys, instead of giving us a helping hand, used to find it simpler to beat us with branches pulled from the trees. In order to avoid these blows, we used to bribe(贿赂) the older boys with the juicy cakes we used to bring for our midday meal. And if we happened to have any money on us, the coins changed hands at once. If we did not do this, if we were afraid of going home with an empty stomach or an empty purse, the blows were redoubled. They hit us so violently and with such evil enjoyment that even a deaf and dumb person would have realized that we were being whipped not so much to make us work harder, but rather to beat us into a state of obedience(服从) in which we would be only too glad to give up our food and money.Occasionally one of us, worn out by such calculated cruelty, would have the courage to complain to the headmaster. He would of course be very angry, but the punishment he gave the older boys was always very small —nothing compared to what they had done to us. And the fact is that however much we complained, our situation did not improve in the slightest. Perhaps we should have let our parents know what was going on, but somehow we never dreamed of doing so; I don't know whether it was loyalty or pride that kept us silent, but I can see now that we were foolish to keep quiet about it, for such beating were completely foreign to our nature. 1. The statement “my hands and my fingers still remember” (Para.1) means that ______.A. the author's hands were severely injured in the cleaning upB. the author seldom did such hard work as the cleaning upC. the author was bullied by the big boys in the cleaning upD. the author's hands were his only tool for the cleaning2. The headmaster would tell the students to clean up the school yard at the beginning of the term because ______.A. he was too lazyB. there were many fallen leaves on the groundC. the school yard were covered with mudD. the students didn't finish their homework3. The headmaster asked the older boys to ______.A. beat those who worked slowlyB. treat the small boys as peanutsC. take charge of the process of the cleaningD. do the cleaning all by themselves4. According to Para. 3, if the author had any money on him, he most probably ______.A. gave it to the big boys so as to please themB. gave it as a bride to the headmasterC. spent it all on his midday mealD. spent it buying midday meals for the big boys5. When receiving complaints, the headmaster would deal with the big boys by means of ______.A. slight punishmentB. harsh criticismC. complete indifferenceD. good beatingⅣ.阅读填空(每空不超过三个单词)(2014·雅礼中学月考三) S istercity relationship is the relationship between different communities from different countries, which is beneficial to both sides. Often these partnerships are based on special projects or exchanges. People share their knowledge in areas like education, government, business or technology.Under this relationship, people can learn from each other and then solve problems together. They can also share an interest in other cultures as well as increase international understanding and friendship through educational, cultural and humanitarian activities. Citizen diplomats(外交官) could help build peace, too.Building sist ercit y relationships was one of the ideas put forward by President Eisenhower. On September 11 and 12, 1956, he established the program, the “PeopletoPeople” program, at a White House conference.Soon, establishing s istercity relationship became very popular. Today, it is involved with programs in 134 countries. 700 American communities have partnerships with almost 1,800 communities in other countries. Atlanta, Georgia, for example, has 18 sistercity partnerships. One is with Brussels, Belgium. Another is with Lagos, Nigeria. These two relationships have existed for more than thirty years. The areas they involve include economic development and trade. Within the past fifteen years, more American cities have created partnerships in developing countries.
