Iceberg Was the KillerD. Sailing sometimes Was Very DangerousYears ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The building next door was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading. After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, "I wonder why that woman doesn't wash her window. It really looks terrible."One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the te in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible. Her window was clean!Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing (批评) her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings?Since then, whenever I wanted to judge (评判) someone, I asked myself first, "Am I looking at him through my own dirty window?"Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.（）6.

From the passage, we can learn ______.A.one shouldn't criticize others very oftenB. one should often make his windows cleanC. one must judge himself before he judges othersD. one must look at others through his dirty windows四、任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）Many Americans find silence uncomfortable during a dinner. So in the United States people often make “small talk” in certain social situations（社交场合）. Small talk is about different topics, only for keeping a conversation going. The topics might include the weather, sports, college lessons, clothing, food, etc. Small talk is very useful in social situations when you meet someone for the first time , or when polite conversation is expected but no serious discussion is wanted.It is common but not necessarily expected that one knows someone in a group before talking with him or her in a conversation . In fact, at a party, “May I join you?” and a self-introduction is useful enough to get a welcome from a group and to join in a conversation. In some places, such as a concert hall or a theatre, a waiting room or a classroom, it’s common for strangers to start a c onversation even without an introduction .People in the States expect those whom they speak to stop whatever they are doing and listening. As a rule, the conversation distance（距离）between two people is at least two or three feet. Standing very close will make many Americans feel uncomfortable.1、Whatis“smalltalk”usedfor? _________________________________________________________2. What would you do if you want to join in a conversation at a party in the USA?_____________________________________________________________3. What is the correct distance between two Americans in a conversation?_____________________________________________________________4. How do many Americans feel when you stand very close to them in a conversation?_____________________________________________________________5. Do you think serious discussion is wanted between strangers in social situations in the USA? Whyor why not ? ____________________________________________________________汶川大地震牵动了亿万人民的心，海内外各界人士纷纷伸出援助之手，帮相灾区重建家园，真所谓“天灾无情人有情”。

You’re part of this family, aren’t you?” Grandpa said. “I think you’re starting to understand the magic of the button box, aren’t you, Zach?” Zach smiled.“We still need to replace that button you lost,” Nana said.“Why not use the button from my old coat?” Grandpa suggested.“Good idea, Grandpa,” Zach said. “But a memory will be 44 from the box.”“That’s OK. We’ll still remember it,” Nana said.But Zach wasn’t 45 . He thought for a moment. Then he cut off the bottom button from his shirt.“What are you doing?” Mom asked.“I’m 46 a memory,” Zach said, throwing the button into the box. “And the next time I see that button, it’ll remind me of the day I found out the secret of themagic button box.”35.

You’ve never seen a supermarket before, have you, Jimmy?”I shook my head no.“A trading post in the pueblo only shows you a small part of the world. This store speaks of a world that is a very big place.”“So I should just forget where we come from, is that it?”“No. Carry it with you, so that you may be always in both worlds, large and small.”“So it’s big, so what! I’d rather be in a trading post any old day. Maybe they only have one kind of apple, but they are all ripe!” While I was saying that, I was watching a woman putting the green apples into a bag. “That woman is being cheated because she doesn’t know the apples aren’t ripe.”Grandfather laughed. He also put about half a dozen of the green apples in a bag.“You’ll get a stomachache if you eat green apples,” I said.Grandfather looked as though he were going to laugh again, but he didn’t.At the cash registers, Grandfather paid his money. Nobody said much. Maybe everybody in a city always acted like strangers. Maybe that was how people got along with each other here.When we got outside, Grandfather reached for one of those green apples.“Feel like sharing an apple with me?” He used a small knife to cut the apple in half. He offered me one piece.I was hungry, but I said no.Grandfather chewed the other piece, making a great show of how good it tasted. “Not afraid of an apple, are you?”I didn’t know why he was making such a big deal over an apple, so I took it. I bit into it was juicy and sweet.“It’s not a trick. I thought it was when I first saw them, too. But it is this kind of apple, it gets ripe but it stays green.” He finished his half of the apple.“It tastes pretty good,” I finally admitted. A green apple that was ripe! It just didn’t seem possible somehow.“You’re going to see lots of new things here. Just try not to forget the old things you already know and you will do well,” said Grandfather.1.

They’re the trendsetters (引领潮流者), and everyone else follows their lead.The standards of the in-crowd differ from culture to culture and even school to school. Nevertheless, teens worldwide worry about popularity. As people grow from children to adults, looking for support from peers (同伴) is normal, explains a psychologist at the University of North Carolina.Being popular has certain benefits. Popular kids often enjoy plenty of partyinvites and dates. Along the way, they develop social skills and learn how to get along in different situations too.Being a trendsetter can also be exciting. That’s especially true if that status (地位) is used for a positive goal, such as making school a more welcoming place. “It is my hope that popular teens will choose to be the superhero rather than the villain,” says psychologist Leanna Closson.Popularity ca n have an unpleasant side, though. “Amy is very self-centred and complains about petty things,” notes Danielle. “She makes fun of other people and is in general not an all-around nice person.” Eric M. says the popular crowd acts the same way at his high sc hool. “They act really mean on the outside to make themselves seem better than everyone else,” says the 16-year-old.If being both popular and unlikable seems strange, think about how some teens—especially girls—try to boost (吹捧) their status. They don’t just pick on unpopular kids; they often aim at the middle and higher popularity levels. Teens may secretly hope their popularity will rise if they knock down possible “competitors”. Even if that makes them more popular, in the process they may make themselves less likeable.Achieving popularity doesn’t priomise happiness, either. One study of New England teens found that high-status girls were more likely to have symptoms of deoression (沮丧) after high school. Feeling you always have to act a certain way to stay popular can be stressful, suggests Antonius Cillessen of the Netherland’s Radboud University.”Kepping status is like walking on your toes all the time,”he says.” It’s hard work.”1. What can we know from Paragraph 2?A. An in-crowd is mostly made up of girls.B. Amy belongs to a less-than-cool group.C. Danielle is popular because of her hair style.D. Trendsetters set the trend for others to follow.2. What does Leanna Closson hope to see?A. The in-crowd will develop better social skills.B. Popular teens will influence others positively.C. The in-crowd will work hard to achieve popularity.D. Popular teens will take part in more competitions.3. What is the best title of the passage?A. School Competitions: Yes or NoB. In-crowd at School: Dos and Don’tsC. School Trendsetters: The Good and BadD. Being Popular at School: For or AgainstDIt’s no secret that reading is helpful. But can it help kids lose weight? In the first study to look at the influence of literature (文学) on overweight teenagers, researchers at Duke Children’s Hospital discovered that reading the right type of novel may make a difference.The Duke researchers asked overweight girls aged 9 to 13 who were already in a weight loss program to read a novel called Lake Rescue. It was carefully created with the help of pediatric experts (儿科专家) to include specific healthy lifestyle and weight management guidance, as well as positive messages and strong role models.Six months later, the Duke researchers found the 31 girls who read Lake Rescue experienced a significant decrease (fall) in their BMI scores (-.71%) when compared to a control group of 14 girls who hadn’t (+.05%), explained Alexandra C. Russell, a fourth-year medical student at Duke who led the study.“As a pediatrician, I can’t count the number of times I tell parents to buy a book that might provide useful advice, yet I’ve never been able to point to research to back up my recommendations,” says Sarah Armstrong, director of Duke’s Healthy Lifestyles Program where the research took place. “This is the first probable interventional (介入的) study that found literature can have a positive influence on healthy lifestyle changes in young girls.”Obesity is becoming more widespread in children, according to the CDC ( Centres for Disease Control), which report that 16 percent of children aged 6 to 19 are overweight or obese, a number that has increased since 1980.Researchers arelooking at a lot of ways to help kids stay healthy ,lose weight and be more active, but Armstrong say’s,”most don’t work very well. The weight loss choices that are effective typically involve taking powerful medications with side effects, or require long-lasting surgical procedures.”While the BMI decrease due to the book is small, Armstrong says any decrease in BMI is encouraging because BMI typically increases in children as they grow and develop. That’s okay as long as it follows a normal, progressing curve. In overweight kids, however, BMI usua lly increases more quickly. “If their BMI percentile (百分位) goes down, it means they are either losing weight or getting tall and not gaining weight. Both are seen as positive signs in kids who are trying to lose weight,” she explains.1. What did researchers at Duke Children’s Hospital do?A. They tried to find out the reasons why kids are overweight.B. They focused on the research into girls’ healthy lifestyle.C. They studied whether literature could help lose weight.D. They helped the girls to choose right books to read.2. The underlined phrase “back up my recommendations” probably means “_____”.A. influence my researchB. change my opinionC. respect my studyD. support my advice3. Which of the following statements about the research is TRUE?A. The researchers interviewed the girls and studied information.B. Pediatric experts offered specific guidance to the research.C. 16 percent of children aged from 9 to 13 were overweight.D. The girls read a certain novel and gave their reports.4. What’s the finding of the research?A. That the girls all grew tall and lost weight after 6 months.B. That the girls showed great interest in reading literature works.C. That the girls who read Lake Rescue had a decrease in BMI.D. That the girls need to take powerful medications to lose weight.四、信息匹配（共1小题）Would you like to explore (开发) the oceans? Do you want to find more life than we imagine there? For Jacques Cousteau, the answer was “yes”. His career was a life-long dream, and he is probably the most famous ocean scientist in recent times.Cousteau was born in France in 1910. Even as a child, he loved water. Cousteau was bright, but he got bored with school and began to cause trouble. 1 . There, Cousteau finally felt challenged. He studied hard and did well in all his courses. In 1933, he served as a general officer in the French Navy. 2 . He worked on a breathing machine to stay under water longer. It was finished in 1943.In 1948, Cousteau became a captain, and he had new duties. Even so, he continued to explore the oceans. Two years later, he became the president of the French Oceanographic Campaigns. He also bought a ship to help with his dives.3 . To do that, he produced many films and published（出版）a number of books. His films include “The Silent World (1956)”, “World without Sun (1966)”. One of his books is “The Living Sea (1963)”.4 . Its work was to further oceanic research and to encourage people to help protect the oceans and the life within them.Cousteau won many honors for his work, including the Medal of Freedom and membership in the French Academy in 1989.五、阅读填空（共1小题）“Yeah, I want to clean up the environment, but what can I do? One person can’t make a difference.” Some people may say.It is hard for one person to ma ke a change, but when all the “one persons” get together, something meaningful can be done. You can start by getting all the “onepersons” together in your school and set up your school environmental club!In our school, our club started because we wanted to clean up the earth. We realized the movement had to begin with cleaning up the environment closest to us.One project our club started was a clean-up of our school’s outdoor campus (校园). We hated the amount of pollution we found around our school. So we went to pick up trash during lunch and after school. We put the trash on display because we wanted everyone to enjoy the garbage artwork we created.Another project we started was recycling old Christmas trees. We advertised this new program at local Christmas tree stores. After Christmas we also asked our neighbors if we could replant their still-living trees. We planted them in some local parks.In the months to come we have a number of projects planned. We hope to set up our paper recycling program again which was put off because of limited storage space. We have planned another outdoor campus clean-up this spring. We will also make reusable hall passes to take the place of the wasteful paper ones.So now that you have some ideas for your school’s environmental club, get started. Let’s show the world what a difference kids can make. We look forward to seeing you carry out your wonderful ideas.1. Is it hard for one person to make a change to the environment?2. What did the movement in the writer’s school have to begin with?3. Why did they put the trash on display?4. Where did they plant the still-living trees?5. What is the passage mainly about?六、完成句子（共1小题）1. 空气很清新。

After the television reporter finished interviewingDwight ， Mom and I walked toward him ．"Umm Mr ．Mr ．Edwards？I'm Keysha，and I think you're amazing ．" My heart was beating fast． But I collected my courage and asked ， "Would you please sign my photo ？ " "Sure ，Keysha． Thanks for coming today ． " Dwight smiled as he signed the photo and then shook my hand ． I thanked him ．As Mom guided my steps toward the exit ， I watched Dwight until he disappeared into the locker room ． When I turned around， I noticed a little boy holding a piece of paper and a pen and crying ． "It's OK ，son，" his father said．"We'll meet Dwight Edwards some othertime ．" I looked at Dwight Edwards' signature and thought about how great it was to meethim ． Then I thought about how kind Mom ‘ s boss was for giving us the tickets to allow me to have this experience．I handed Dwight's photo to the boy ． "Here ，I want you to have this，" I said ． The boy's eyes widened ． "Dwight's autograph （亲笔署名）？ Wow !" he exclaimed ． "Thank you!"

and 1980s because oil became very expensive． Recently ？electric cars have again become popular because people want cars that pollute less．Electric cars are better than petrol cars in several ways ． The biggest benefit is that they can reduce pollution ． In areas with a high percentage of electric cars ？there is lesspollution ． But it is important to understand that electric cars still cause

second benefit of electric cars is a reduction in the dependence on foreignoil ．Since electric cars can run on electricity from coal or nuclear power（核能）stations，there is less of a need to import oil ．There are some problems with electric cars as well． One disadvantage is that electric cars are more expensive than petrol cars． This is mostly because of the high cost of thebatteries． They need to be charged in special places． Right now ，there aren't enough places where people can charge the batteries． Another problem is that electric cars cannot travel as far as petrol cars． Some people are afraid that the battery will run out ofelectricity before they reach their destination ．Despite these problems， many people， including car industry experts ， believe that the percentage of electric cars will increase in the future ．What do electric cars get their power from ？ ______When were electric cars first popular ？ ______Why have electric cars become popular again recently ？ ______What is
