Rather, I read in order to get a point of view. I searched books for good expressions and sayings, pieces of information, idea, themes---anything to enrich my thought and make me feel educated. When one of my teachers suggested to his sleepy tenth-grade English class that a person could not have a “complicated idea”until he had read at least two thousand books, I heard the words without recognizing either its irony or its very complicated truth. I merely determined to make a list of all the books I had ever read. Strict with myself, I included only once a title I might have read several times.(How, after all, could one read a book more than once?) And I included only those books over a hundred pages in length. (Could anything shorter be a book?)There was yet another high school list I made. One day I came across a newspaper article about an English professor at a nearby state college. The article had a list of the “hundred most important books of Western Civilization”. “More than anything else in my life”. The professor told the reporter with finality, “these books have made me all that I am.” That was the kind of words I couldn’t ignore. I kept the list for the several months it took me to read all of the titles. Most books, of course, I hardly understood. While reading Plato’s The Republic, for example, I needed to keep looking at the introduction of the book to remind myself what the text was about. However, with the special patience and superstition of a schoolboy, I looked at every word of the text. And by the time I reached the last words, I persuaded myself that I had read The Republic, and seriously crossed Plato off my list.1.On hearing the teacher’s suggestion of reading, the writer thought___________.A.one must read as many books as possibleB. a student should not have a complicated ideaC.it was impossible for one to read two thousand booksD.students ought to make a list of the books they had read2.While at high school , the writer __________.A.had plans for readingB.learned to educate himselfC.only read books over 100 pagesD.read only one book several times3.The underlined phrases “with finality”in the second paragraph probably means_____________.A firmly B. clearly C. proudly D pleasantly4. The writer’s purpose in mentioning The Republic is to _____________.A. explain why it was included in the listB. describe why he seriously crossed it off the listC. show that he read the books blindly though they were hard to understandD prove that he understood most of it because he had looked at every word5. The writer provides two book lists to____________.A. show how he developed his point of viewB. tell his reading experience at high schoolC. introduce the two person s’ reading methodsD. explain that he read many books at high schoolBWhat makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their chil dren, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You are such a smart child.”6. The words “intelligent” and “brilliant” in the first paragraph probably mean _______ while “dull” in the second paragraph means ________.A. bright and splendid; slow in thinking and understandingB. pretty and handsome; ordinary-lookingC. great and important; commonD. hopeful and helpful; careless7. According to the context we can guess that a genius is ________ while an idiot is ________.A. a normal person; a funny personB. a strong person; a weak personC. a highly intelligent person; a foolish or weak-minded personD. a famous person; an ordinary person8. A person ________ is more likely to become a genius.A. whose parents are cleverB. often thinking about difficult problemsC. often helped by his parents and teachersD. born with a good brain and putting it into active use9. It is better for parents ________.A. to praise and encourage their children more oftenB. to be hard on their childrenC. to leave their children alone with nothing to doD. to give their children as much help as possible10. Which of the following is NOT true according to the article?A. Parents play an important part in their children’s growth.B. The less you use your mind the duller you may become.C. Intelligence is obviously the result of where and how you live.D. What makes a person bright or stupid is still under discussion.VI. 阅读表达：According to the dictionary definition of “ create” , ordinary people are creative everyday . To create means to bring into being or to cause to exist –something each of us does daily .We are creative whenever we look at or think about something in a new way . First this involves an awareness of our surroundings . It means using all of our sense to become aware of world . This may be as simple as being aware of color and appearance , as well as taste , when we plan a meal . Above all , it is the ability to notice things that others might miss .A second part of creativity is an ability to see relationships among things . If we believe the expression “ There is nothing new under the sun”, the creativity is remaking or recombining the old in new ways. For example we might do this by finding a better way to study or to arrange our furniture , or we might make a new combination of camera lenses and filters(镜头和滤光器) 头create an unusual photograph .A third part of creativity is the courage and drive to make use of our new ideas , to apply them to achieve some new results . To think up a new concept is one thing ; to ____________________is another .These three parts of creativity are involved in all the great works of genius , but they are also involved in many of our day-to-day activities .1.What is the best title of the passage?

It's 26 heavily. A 9-year-old boy was in the car with his mother, who was 27 him to school. Suddenly, the car went off the road, 28 several times, and came to rest upside down in a ditch(沟渠) filled with water.Luckily, both the mother and son were 29 seatbelts. The mother suffered a blow to her head and was unable to move. The boy was frightened but 30 . As water came through broken windows in the car, he 31 unbuckled (解开) himself, climbed out of the 32 window, made his way around to the driver's side, and reached inside the 33 to free his trapped mother. With great effort, he managed to 34 her, pull her through the window and up to the road, where they were soon 35 .His mother later recalled her experience of the 36 . Being unable to move or even 37 to offer instructions ( 指导) or encouragement to her son, she was 38 by her little son's action. She recalled 39 her boy saying out loud as he pulled her through the water, “I think I can, I think I can!”It seemed 40 that this little boy's act of courage was from one of his favourite books: The Little Engine that Could. In that 41 , when everyone else had 42 hope, the Little Engine carried the heavy load of toys and good things to eat over the hill to the children waiting on the other side.

Psychologists say that if children go through a disturbing event before the age of ten, they are three times as likely to suffer psychological problems as so teenagers. After a disaster children may become easily upset, shy, aggressive, or afraid of wind, rain, noises, or darkness. They may have trouble letting go of their parents and resist going to school or daycare. Some children may even feel guilty thinking that they somehow caused the disaster through their bad behavior. Because of such common reactions, parents and others should begin as soon after the event as possible helping these children.Some suggestions include talking to the children about what happened, letting the children express their own feelings, spending extra time with them doing activities together and reassuring them that you love them and won't leave them. For some children expressing themselves through drawing pictures or writing can be useful. Do everything possible to help children get back to a normal routine; however, don't be afraid to "spoil" these children for a while after the disaster. Let them have extra privileges and more attention than usual. Encourage the children to grieve after a loss. It should be OK for them to cry. Caring families and friends can do much to heal children victims of disasters.46. This passage is mainly about_______.A. how to help traumatized children to get overB. the bad effects disasters bring to childrenC. the psychological problems children before ten are likely to sufferD. the importance of caring families47. According to the passage, a child who has just experienced a devastating disaster may become______.A. more matureB. less dependentC. willing to helpD. ready to attack48. Which is NOT advisable when dealing with the traumatized children?A. Allowing them freedom for some time.B. Asking them to hold their feelings.C. Encouraging them to show their grief.D. Talking them into taking care of others.B篇The English policeman has several nicknames but the most frequently used are “copper” and“bobby”. The first name comes from the verb to “cop”, meaning to “take” or “capture”, and the second comes from the first name of Sir Robert Peel, the nineteenth-century politician, who was the founder of the police force as we know it today. An early nickname for the policeman was “peeler”, but this one has died out.Whatever we may call them, the general opinion about the police seems to be a good one except, of course, among the criminal part of the community where the police are given more bad nicknames which came from America, such a s “fuzz” or “pig”. Visitors to England seem, nearly always, to be very impressed by the English police. It has, in fact, become a standing joke that the visitor to Britain, when asked for his views of the country, will always say, “I think your policemen a re wonderful.”Well, the British bobby may not always be wonderful but he is usually a very friendly and helpful sort of character. A music-hall song of some years ago was called, “If You Want To Know The Time, Ask A Policeman”. Nowadays, most people own w atches but they still seem to find plenty of other questions to ask the policemen. In London, the policemen spend so much of their time directing visitors about the city that one wonders how they ever find time to do anything else!Two things are noticeable to the stranger, when he sees an English policeman for the first time.
