It is the end of the semester and your teacher gives you your report card. You look at it and your heart stops because you realize that your parents are going to be very angry. This is the classic case of a bad report card! There is nothing you can do to change the past. So, what do you do now?A disappointing report card is something that almost all students will experience at least once in their lives. Grades are how most schools evaluate (评价)students and they are pretty important. The problem is that we do not always get good grades we (or our parents) want. After a bad report card, it is important to figure out what to do next.The first thing to do is talk to your teacher. Find out how your grades were calculated. Was the problem a bad test, lack ofparticipation (参与)in class, or a failure to complete homework? Next, if the problem is something you can solve on your won (such as not doing your homework), make a promise to change your behaviour! However, if you have been studying hard and still got a bad grade, you probably need some extra help with your classes. Talk to your teacher and explain your situation. He or she will tell you where you can receive the extra help you need. Then, make a detailed plan of how you will improve your grades. Write down the plan and have it ready when you take to your parents. That’s good way to make your parents less angry.While all parents want their children to get good grades, most understand that not every report card will be perfect. The important thing is that you show your parents you have a plan to improve your grades for next time. Always remember, many of the world’s most successful people failed many times before they became successful. They learn ed from their failures, and you should too!69. What is the problem with the grades?A. Most schools evaluate students by using grades.B. It’s important to get good grades.C. We don’t always get good grades we want.D. Grades are sometimes incorrect.70. Which of the following is not a cause of a bad report card?A. There was something wrong with the test itself.B. You studied hard enough for the test.C. You didn’t take part in enough group work in class.D. You failed to finish your homework.71. ________ is a good way to make your parents less angry.A. Telling your parents the test was too difficult for youB. Understanding all parents want their children to get good gradesC. Showing your parents you have a detailed plan to improve your gradesD. Explaining why you couldn’t complete your homework on time72. The underlined work “your situation” in the text probably means “________”.A. You had no idea about how your grades were calculated.B. You have made a promise to change some bad behaviour.C. You have been studying hard, but you still got bad grades.D. You have had a detailed plan to improve your grades.73. Why does the writer mention (提及)”successful people” in paragraph 4?A. to compare successful people with unsuccessful peopleB. to describe whether they had good grades or bad gradesC. to encourage students to become successful like those peopleD. to explain that even successful people fail from time to time74. The text above is written to ________.A. encourage students to get good grades C. share ways to deal with bad report cardsB. make parents less angry D. find excuses for bad gradesB.Choose the best answer and complete the passageWould you like to be comfortable talking to other people? Holding conversations may help.Holding conversations may not seem like a skill. __75__, everyone talks to other people frequently (频繁地). But talking to new people makes many people nervous.Here are some ways to make conversations more fun and less awkward (尴尬的).Body languageAs strange as it may seem, much __76__ happens without any words.The way you stand and act tells people a lot about you. When you’re talking with someone, stand up straight and look them in the eye. This shows that you’re confident. And if you’re nervous, acting like you’re confident can help you feel more confident. When you’re listening, look at the other person. Lean forward to show that you’re interested in what they’re saying.Back and forthA good conversation is not a __77__, which means that both people need to participate. If you’re doing all the talking , pause to give the other person time to speak. If they don’t say anything, try asking them a question.Questions can also help if you’re struggling (挣扎)to think of something to say. If you ask the other person a question, they’ll talk for a while. Maybe they’ll say something relate with and can reply. to. People are generally __78__ to find others with similar interests.When you ask questions, try to come up with open-ended ones. That means questions where the answer is more than just “yes” or “no.” Open - ended questions in English tend to start with who, what, when, where and why.Don’t fear__79__.Don’t panic if the conversation has quiet moments. Every conversation has some. Think of them as opportunities to change the subject to something you’re interested in. You could also comment on (评论)something you’ve done recently. Or once again, you can ask a question about the other person.So if you’re shy, be brave, ask a question, and start a conversation. As with any skill, you will __79__ on holding conversations with time.75. A. Above all76. A. emotion77. A. dialogue78. A. difficult79. A. conclusions80. A. increase B. In briefB. communicationsB. gameB. faithfulB. questionsB. improveC. After allC. informationC. discussionC. excitedC. conversationsC. betterD. Even thoughD. situationD. speechD. honestD. silenceD. riseC.Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words.A local primary school is considering using tablet computers (平板电脑)in all classrooms from next year. The following text has been written by a teacher at the school.Should we use tablet computers in the classroom?The use of tablet computers (or simply“tablets”)in the classroom has become an increasingly popular choice in many primary schools across the country, including many in our local area. It is important that we consider this opportunity, but we must also be a ___81___ ofthe problems.On one hand, there are many a ___82___ to use tablets in the classroom.Firstly, tablets could improve productivity (效率)during the school day. Because of their familiarity with computers and mobile phones, many of our students can type faster than they can write by hand. T___83___, using tablets in the classroom could reduce the time it takes for them to complete tasks. Additionally, there are endless tablet functions (功能)which could provide interesting teaching a ___84___. For example, we could play computer games to teach Maths, or make simple flashes to show how magnets behave. Also, students could take photos outdoors and then use them for writing tasks.However, we must also consider the possible problems with introducing tablets to our classrooms. Some students may play with the tablets instead of f___85___ on their work. Another problem is that, while many students can use tablets already, many of our teachers are not good at it and would need to be trained. We may also have problems with the tablets breaking, which would be very expensive to r___86___. This is in addition to the cost of buying the tablets in the first place.All in all, even though using tablets in the classroom may have many problems, it seems that it would be a wonderful opportunity for students and teachers at our school. There are a lot of costs indeed, but it would c___87___ prove to be a worthwhile investment(物有所值的投资).D.Answer the questions.Dear Grandma and Grandpa,As you may have heard from my parents, I’m in China right now on a cultural exchange program. I’m enjoying my time here very much. I have made new friends here, many of whom are locals. Through my interaction (相互交流)with them, I’ve noticed some interesting cultural differences. One ofthe most obvious (明显的)cultural differences is the size of food portions in restaurants. Back home in America, the food portions are usually larger than those I’ve seen in China. We’re even used to seeing super-sized dishes in somerestaurants.However, in Asia, food portions are generally not extremely large. I’m must encouraged to eat until I’m full and enjoy different kinds of food. Eating out in Asia is often a big social affair (社交活动). People here eat out a lot. There are all kinds ofrestaurants. And there are food stands and food carts-even on the sidewalk (人行道).Another interesting aspect of eating out is the way food is served. Back home in America, each diner orders their own meal. When people eat out in Asia, they usually order food to share. Nearly every time I eat out with friends in China, each ofus has our own bowl of rice or noodles, and we share the rest of the dishes. This is an excellent way to try new foods! One thing that makes me confused is the way people pay for food at a restaurant. In the U.S. we often ask for separate (分开的)checks, so we each pay for our own meal. But here, if diners decide to pay separately, they typically don’t request separate checks. Instead, they give money to one person who pays the bill. People also don’t tip the server. Instead, there is often a service charge added to the bill.I hope you are doing well. I’ll write you again!Love,Margaret88. Margaret has made many local friends during her cultural exchange program, hasn’t she?____________________________________________________________________89. What’s the culture difference in the size of food portions between China and America?____________________________________________________________________90. Why do people in Asia like eating out a lot?____________________________________________________________________91.

Studies show that the jobless are in poorer health than job-holders. The women have jobs are healthier than housewives.Why is work good for health? It is because work keeps people busy, away from feeling lonely. Researches show that people feel unhappy and worried when they have nothing to do. The happiest people are those who are busy. Many high achievers who love their jobs feel they are the happiest when they are working hard. They work as a bridge between their dream and reality, so they have energy every day. By work, people get to know each other. By taking part in all kinds of activities, they find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health. The loss(丧失) of work means the loss of everything. It makes people down and it will cause more illnesses.Besides, work makes one feel hopeful and proud. When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are very happy.From the above, we can come to a conclusion: the more you work, the happier and healthier you will be.(1)People who have no jobs are _____________ than job-holders.A . in poorer healthB . happierC . healthierD . busier(2)From this passage, we can learn ____________.A . people who are busy have a lot of moneyB . people who have more friends are the happiestC . people who are busy are the happiestD . people who are busy are the most worried(3)What is NOT true according to the passage?A . People who are hard-working live longer than those who are jobless.B . Work can make people feel tired and lonely.C . The loss of work will cause more illnesses.D .

How can I tell her no?White ShirtAnswerDear White Shirt,We never want to disappoint our friends, but we should never do things that we shouldn't do just to make others happy.Throughout your life, you will probably be asked to do things that you don't think you should do. It sound like you could have a problem saying no to people, but rather than be direct(直接的), there are other ways to deal with this kind of s________.Instead of simply saying “No”, try to give reasons for your d________For example, if a friend asked you to swi m in the river but you don't want to, you could say, “ I don't think that's wise. The water's very cold and there's n________around to help us if we get into danger.”It's wrong of your friend to risk getting you into trouble. If she were a t________ friend, she wouldn't ask you to break the rules. If she asks you to do something you don't want to next time, just explain to her w________you don't want to do it. You should never do anything that you think is wrong.Perhaps you friend was just looking for a bit of excitement, but if she wants to break the rules, she shouldn't make you feel bad for not doing so.If you really want to keep the friendship, tell her that you don't want either of you to get into trouble. You are not supposed to break the rules, for rules exist simply to keep us safe. And it's always better to be safe than s________ as the saying goes. Hope I can help you out.Dale.6.

Reading comprehension (阅读理解)A. Choose the best answer (根据以下内容,选择最恰当的答案)Crystal was a reporter for her school’s newspaper, The Real Story. She’d done several different kinds of stories before, but never anything like the story she was about to do. During an interview, the school nurse, Mrs. Jones, had told Crystal that the school had a secret basement. Crystal was eager to find out what was in the basement. It could be just about anything! So Crystal asked the newspaper’s advisor, Mr. Adair, if she could do a feature on the school’s basement. He agreed with her that basement might be a fascinating story, especially since a lot of people weren’t even aware that it existed.Crystal got permission from the headmaster to go down into the basement as long as some teachers went with her. So Mr. Adair and Mrs. Jones accompanied Crystal when she went to explore the basement. The guard unlocked the basement door, and Crystal and the two teachers slowly descended the narrow staircase. When they reached the bottom of the stairs, Mrs. Jones turned on the light, and she, Mr. Adair, and Crystal began to look around.Crystal soon discovered a large set of bookshelves with a collection of old dusty books on them. “What are those?” she wondered aloud. Neither of the two teachers knew, so Crystal made her way over to look more closely at the books. They turned out to be yearbooks from every year since the school opened. For almost an hour, Crystal, Mr. Adair, and Mrs. Jones paged slowly through the yearbooks. They joked about the old-fashioned clothes and hair in the oldest books, and they commented on some of the people they recognized. All of a sudden, Crystal knew the next feature she wanted to write.

These are people who have the unusual ability to recognise people they have seen only once -- a long time ago, maybe in a crowed.Whatever the differences in looksIt doesn’t matter what the person looks like now.

Wrinkles, new glasses and makeups give them new a__83__, but the “super - recognisers” can still recognise them.An inborn skillAlthough scientists have known for a long time that about 2% of people suffer from face - blindness, which means that they have huge problems recognising faces, they are only new realising that some people are the exact o__84__.Tests have shown that a “super - recogniser” can identify people that they only saw for a brief moment -- and this is not an ability that we can d__85__, it’s something we are born with.A great h__86__The police are starting to use “super - recognisers” to spot criminal faces in videos of crowds.

Answer the questions (根据以下内容回答问题)The once was a king who wanted to find the answers to what he considered the three most important questions in life. The three questions are : when is the right time for every action, who are the most important people , and what is the most important thing to do? The king consulted learned men, promising he would richly rewardanyone who could answer the questions, but their answers didn’t satisfy him. In the end, he decided to visit a wise hermit who lived in the woods. The hermit would speak only with common people, so the king put on simple clothes.When he got close to the hermit’s hut, he ordered his bodyguards to wait behind. He approached the place and found the hermit digging. He asked the wise man his three questions, but the hermit didn’t respond. Seeing how old and weak the hermit was, the king began helping him dig. The king dug for hours, but the hermit never answered his questions. Just as the king was about to leave, a wounded man came running to the hut and fainted before them. Then the king carried the wounded man to Hermit’s hut and took care of him. The king was exhausted and fell asleep as well. When he awoke, he talked with the man, who said that he had wanted to kill the king but was wounded by his bodyguards. He asked for forgiveness andhelped me dig earlier, you would have left and been killed by the man. So, the most important man back then was me, and the most important time was when you were digging. The most important thing to do was to be kind to me. When the wounded man arrived, he was the most important person, and saving him was the most important thing. By doing so, you made peace with an enemy.”The king finally had his three answers. The most important time is the present, as it’s the only time we have the power to act. The most important person is the one you are with, and the most important thing is always to __92__88. Was the king satisfied with the answers given by learned men?89. Where did the hermit live?90.

She studies hard. “Of course, I came here for the academic (学术),” she says. “But the campus is so beautiful. I walk around just to relax.”Alejandro Vega, a banker in New York City, jogs almost every evening after work in Central Park. “I never get bored. The park is so big. It’s a public space, yet it can feel completely private.”Niagara Falls was on Ross Howard’s list of places to visit in upstate New York. “There are these wonderful footpaths that make the falls so close to the general public.”In 1857, a design contest was held for a new park in New York City. Frederick Law Olmsted and his partner, Calvert Vaux, won the contest. Central Park was the finished product - the first landscaped public park in the United States. Today, no trip to New York is complete without a visit to this beautiful park.Later in his life, Olmsted designed landscapes for college campuses, like Stanford University. He also designed footpaths at Niagara Falls to give visitors better views of the falls. In all his work, Olmsted tried to protect the natural beauty of an area.Today there are new pressures on Niagara Falls: some business want to develop the area, On Goat Island, an island in Niagara Falls State Park, there are now souvenir(纪念品)shops. There may be signs that say “No Littering,”but there is still a lot of trash on the island. Most ofthe animals have disappeared. What would Olmsted think?69.

When you’re wearing heavy winter clothes, you have to work harder to build up a tent, cook dinner or __76__ the woods. Your body will lose a lot ofwater. So drink up.Sleeping__77__Sleeping bags are rated(评估)that is supposed to tell you how cold it can get while keeping you warm.

There was a dance club, a choir, an exercise club, and an action club that found creative ways to raise money for other people. Daniela was thinking about j__81__ the dance club because dancing was her favourite.Then Daniela’s friend Ciara told her about the action club’s new p__82__. At first, Daniela was puzzled. “Why would people in a nursing home want a video-game console (平台)?” she asked Ciara.“This would be a s__83__ kind of console that plays fitness games. The games help people who need to exercise but weren’t able to get to a gym or exercise a__84__ out of their rooms. Besides, everybody loves video games, don’t they?” Ciara replied.“Not my great - grandmother,” Daniela said, laughing. But she agreed to go to the club meeting the next day.At the meeting, Mr. Washington, the club’s manager, d__85__ to Daniela and the others how fitness video games helped encourage people to move. He explained how the consloes could help distract (使分心)people who s__86__ from severe pains. That was all Daniela needed to hear.“How can I help?” She asked as she signed up for the club.“We’re selling raffle (抽奖增卖)tickets. With the money we get, we’ll buy two fitness consoles. We’ll give one to the w__87__ of the raffle. We’ll give the other console to the nursing home,” explained Mr. Washington.“Great!Let’s get started. I’m motivated to sell the tickets immediately!” said Daniela.D.Answer the questionsThe sixth senseThe “sixth sense” is often said to be a strong feeling that a person has about something or someone. Read about one mother’s experience.I had a feeling ...Kathy Sansano arrived home from work two months ago at 7:00 in the evening. “Usually, my husband is home before me, but when I got in, his briefcase was there, but he wasn’t,” recalls Sansano. She just thought that he want to the store for something. Sansano began preparing dinner, but couldn’t shake the feeling that something was wrong. “I just started feeling very anxious and had to sit down. Five minutes later my husband phoned to say that our son had been injured in a football game at school.”Luckily, the boy only had a broken wrist, but Sansano still can’t explain how she knew something was wrong. “It might have been ‘mother’s intuition (直觉)’” she laughs. “My son and I have always been very close.”Science points out five basic senses that humans use to experience the world. There is now evidence that human may also own a sixth sense -- or an intuition about people or events. Recent studies suggest that insects and animals release odorless(meaning “without any smells”) chemicals into the environment to send signal emotions such as fear or aggression (侵略). When another creature of the same kind senses the chemical, certain behavior is caused in that creature; for example, it will prepare to fight or to protect itself.Scientists believe that humans long ago may have communicated using these kinds of chemical signals. “I walked into the room, and something just didn’t seem right.” It may be that the person is sensing chemical messages that have been produced by others. Kathy Sansano’s husband may have left the house feeling afraid and worried about their son. When Kathy got home, she sensed his worry.88.

She still had a lot of time, so she went to a shop and bought a book to read. While she was in the shop, she decided to buy a bag of cookies as well.She arrived at her gate, sat down and started reading her book. She read her book so attentively that she didn’t notice what was going on around her. But she did see that a man had sat down next to her and taken one of her cookies out ofthe bag.She pretended not to notice, as she didn’t want to make a scene (当众大吵). But then the man took more. He kept eating the cookies until there was just one left. The man took the last cookie and broke it in half. He tapped the woman on the shoulder and held out one halfto her.The woman could not believe how much nerve this man had to steal all of her cookies and then offer half a cookie in return. She angrily grabbed the half-cookie out of his hand and ate it without any words.Finally, it was time for her to board. As she went to the gate, she reached into her purse. Suddenly, she realized that her bag of cookies was still in her purse. The man had eaten his own cookies the whole time and simply wanted to share the last one with her.

But nearly all outstanding people are self-disciplined people. Some of them read every day. Some of them never run late. The real difference between an elite (精英)person and an ordinary person is that an elite person can manage his or her time well. That’s where their success comes from. What people call self-discipline is in fact self-management.One example is staying fit. Never underestimate(低估)someone who is in good shape. Anyone who has ever tried to lose weight knows that it’s not easy. It’s even harder to avoid putting weight back on. If someone is in good shape, it shows that he knows the principles(原则)of staying fit and is able to stick to a plan that uses these principles. If someone is in good shape, it means that this person is good at managing themselves and their time. Whether it is natural or acquired, it is a great skill. It also shows that this person is able to keep persevering (坚定不移的)and can balance long-term goals with short-term goals.So if someone is in good shape, he or she is much more than just healthy.How do you learn self-management? First of all, set a goal and write down your reasons for wanting to achieve it. Create a list of all the things you need to do to achieve this goal and start to work on them one at a time. With self-discipline, small things in life will no longer trouble you.

Four out of 10 babies born in the United States do not form a strong relationship with either parent, and they will pay for that the rest of their lives.New research from Princeton University confirms what other researchers have already found: The number of babies born into families that are too poorly equipped(装备、配备) to give them a fair chance of having a successful life is very big.That finding is supported by many other research Projects, including a study from the Universityof Rochester showing that nearly one-third of U.S. parents don't know what to expect from their new horns, or how to help them grow and learn and get along with others. Babies, as others have pointed out, don't come with an owner's manual.The basic problem, according to the Princeton study, is 40 percent of infants in the U.S. live in fear or distrust of their parents, and that will turn into aggressiveness(侵犯), defiance(挑衅)and hyperactivity(多动) as they grow into adults.Of that number, 25 percent don't have a close relationship with their parents because the parents don't satisfy their needs. And 15 percent find their parents so troubling that they will avoid them whenever possible.That will not necessarily result in a lifetime of violence(暴力), but it will make living a successful life much more difficult."They can overcome(克服) it," sociologist (社会科学家) Sophie Moullin of Princeton, lead author(作者) of that study, said in a telephone interview. "It's not a make or break situation, but they might find it harder to control their behavior."Moullin, along with coauthors from Columbia University and the University of Bristol in England, analyzed(分析) more than 100 research projects, to reach their conclusions.There are many factors, including poverty(贫穷), ignorance(无知), and stress among parents who are so busy with their own problems that a new child is sometimes more than they can deal with.Yet strong relationships, the researchers say, are amazingly simple to achieve.(1)According to the writing style of the passage, it may be a(n) _________.A . news reportB . book reportC . novelD . review(2)What is the meaning of the underlined word "manual" in Paragraph 3?A . An actor who tells you how to take care of a baby.B . A book that tells you how to do or operate something.C . A TV show that tells you how to make a relationship with your baby.D . A radio program explaining how to look after your baby.(3)What do you think is the best title of this passage?A . It's harder to control children's behavior.B . What a little love means to a little one.C . The problems of the parents in the United States.D . The problems of the children in the United Sates.(4)What may be discussed in the following paragraph?A . Findings of other similar project concerning this topic.B . Examples of the results of lacking string relationships.C . Simple ways of achieving strong relationships with a baby.D . Reasons for failing in building up string relationships with a child.3. (4分)Many people don’t think that the number 13 is a lucky number. Many hotels do not have a 13th floor. The floors go from 12 to 14, and there is no number13. Some people will never sit at a table with 12 other people. They will tell someone to go or ask another person to sit with them.No one really knows why people do not like the number 13. Perhaps one reason is that when people began to count, they used ten fingers and two hands. This made 12. They could not count more.Some Christians (基督徒) say that 13 is not lucky because there were 13 people at a meal the day before Jesus (耶稣) was killed (被杀).
