I was very grateful and determined to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good reason to charg e me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury, I’d have to have a good lawyer. And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer .Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him.But every day I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time .The final examination report consisted of ten lines, and it cost me $215.My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all.

If it didn’t exist, we would easily imagine th at the story of its construction was simply a fairy tale. Three hundred years ago, there lived an Indian emperor called Shah Jahan. His wife was a beautiful and bright woman whom he loved greatly. Her title was Mumtazl Mahan: its shortened form Taj Mahan, means ―pride of the palace‖. In the year 1630 this beloved wife of the emperor died. He was so brokenhearted that he thought of giving up his throne. He decided out of his love for his wife, to build her the most beautiful tomb that had ever been seen.He summoned the best artists and architects from India, Turkey, Persia and Arabia and finally, the design was complete. It took more than twenty thousand men working over a period of 18 years to build the Taj Mahan, one of the most beautiful buildings in the world.The building itself stands on a marble platform 29 meters square and 6-7 meters high. Towers rise from eachof the four corners. The Taj itself soars another 61 meters into the air. It is an eight-sided building made of white marble.The emperor planned to build an identical tomb of black marble for himself on the other side of the river connected by a silver bridge. However his son put him into a prison in the palace before he could finish, and for the rest of his life, he could only gaze across river at the tomb of his beloved wife.8.

The emperor _____________.A. died soon after Taj Mahan diedB. was killed by his sonC. was beloved by his peopleD. died after 1648DAlong 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 （远古的）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.12．What is the text mainly about?A．Hoatzins in dry and rainy seasons.B．The relatives and enemies of hoatzins.C．Primitive birds and hoatzins of the Amazon.D．The appearance and living habits of hoatzins.13．Young hoatzins are different from their parents in that____ ．A．they look like young cuckoosB．they have claws on the wingsC．they eat a lot like a cowD．they live on river banks14．What can we infer about primitive birds from the text?A．They had claws to help them climb.B．They could fly long distances.C．They had four wings like hoatzins.D．They had a head with long feathers on the top.15．Why do hoatzins collect together in smaller groups when the rainy season comes?A．To find more food.B．To protect themselves better.C．To keep themselves warm.D．To produce their young.第二节（共5小题，满分10分）根据短文内容，选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，有两处多余选项。

He has good heart, but always feared applying for a new job.One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed of be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It’s the least I could do. Please. I insist.” Jimmy agreed.Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applications waiting to be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the interviewer’s office with disappointed look on their faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked, “Do you really need to beinterviewed?” Jimmy’s heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pas s this interview?” he thought to himself.Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy’s surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he was the General Manager of the company.“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into the office. I just know you’d be a trustworthy worker. Congratulations!” Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup of well-deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job.21. Why did Jimmy apply for a new job?A.

A friend in need is a friend indeedC. Good is rewarded with good.D. Two heads are better than oneBYou can’t always predict a heavy rain or remember your umbrella. But designer Mikhail Belvacv doesn’t think that forgetting to check the weather forecast before heading out shouldresult in you getting wet. That’s why he created lampbrella, a lamp post with its own rain sensing umbrella.The designer says he come up with the idea after watching people get wet on streets in Russia. “once, I was driving on a central Saint Petersburg street and saw the street lamps lighting up people trying to hide from the rain. I thought it would be appropriate to have a canopy(伞蓬)built into a street lamp.” he said.The lampbrella is a standard-looking street lamp fitted with an umbrella canopy. It has abuilt-in electric motor which can open or close the umbrella on demand. Sensors(传感器)then ensure that the umbrella offers pedestrians shelter whenever it starts raining.In addition to the rain sensor, there’s also a 360°motion sensor on the biberglass street lamp which detects whether anyone’s using the lampbrella. After three minutes of not being used the canopy is closed.According to the designer, the lampbrella would move at a relatively low speed, so as not to cause harm to the pedestrians. Besides, it would be grounded to protect from possible lighting strike. Each lampbrella would offer enough shelter for several people. Being installed at 2 meters off the ground, it would only be a danger for the tallest of pedestrians.While there are no plans to take lampbrella into production, Belyacv says he recently introduced his creation one Moscow Department, and insists this creation could be installed on my street where a lot of people walk but there are no canopies to provide shelter.26. For what purpose did Belyacv create the lampbrella?A. To predict a heavy rainB. To check the weather forecastC. To protect people from the rainD. To remind people to take an umbrella27. What do we know from Belyacv’s worlds in Paragraph2?A. His creation was inspired by an experienceB. it rains a lot in the city of Saint PetersburgC. Street lamps are protected by canopiesD. He enjoyed taking walks in the rain28. Which of the following show how the lampbrella works?A. motor → canopy → sensorsB. Sensors → motor → canopyC. motor → sensors → canopyD. canopy → motor → sensors29. What does paragraph 5 mainly tell us about the lampbrella?A. Its moving speedB. Its appearanceC. Its installationD. Its safety30. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The designer will open a company to promote his productB. The lampbrella could be put into immediate productionC. The designer is confident that his creation is practicalD. The lampbrella would be put on show in MoscowIII．填空（共10题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（不多于3个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

Chances are that you don’t. You probably think the music that they like is old and boring and that the songs on your playlist are muchcooler. But scientists found that people’s music taste changes as time goes by. So it is likely that your own musical preferences will follow a similar path to your parents’, whether you like it or not.We used to think that culture and personality (个性) are the only reasons for different music choices. But researchers at the University of Cambridge noticed that as people enter into different age groups, their social environment changes, and so does their music taste. There are some musical periods that people go through in their life.The first period comes in the teenage years, during which people like strong music such as punk and rock, because teenagers tend to be aggressive or want to be independent.But as people move into early adulthood, their lifestyles change they want to build close relationships with others. As a result, they become fonder of contemporary music, such as pop and R&.B, which is usually uplifting and danceable.When middle age comes, most people have settled down. During this period, people prefer music, such as jazz and classical, as well as music like country, folk and blues.As for old people, they prefer old songs in their childhoods. They generally listen to relaxing music, such as country music and jazz music. But you must be questioning. “Aren’t there old people who are still interested in or even crazy about rock music?” Of course there are. But their reasons for listening to rock music may have changed. At that age people may listen to remind themselves of their youth.4. What do young people usually think of the songs their parents enjoy?A. They are actually less cool.B. They are worth listening to.C. They are especially serious.D. They are hard to understand.5. How many musical periods are there that people go through in their life?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.6. People who want to make friends mostly prefer ________.A. jazz musicB. country musicC. rock musicD. pop music7. What is the best title for the text?A. People Have Different Opinions on MusicB. People Listen to Music for the Same ReasonC. People’s Taste in Music Changes with TimeD. People’s Lifestyle Can Be Changed by MusicCChildren's average daily time spent watching television or using mobile device increased from 53 minutes at age 12 months to more than 150 minutes at 3 years, according toan analysis by researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). By age 8, children were more likely to log the highest amount of screen time if they had been in home-based children or were born to first-time mothers.“Our results indicate that screen habits begin early, ”said Edwina Yeung, an investigator in National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD).“This finding suggests that interventions(干涉) to reduce screen time could have a better chance of success if introduced early.”In the research, mothers of 4, 000 children responded to questions on their kids' media habits when they were 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36 months of age.TheAmericanAcademyof Pediatrics recommends avoiding digital media exposure for children under 18 months of age, introducing children 18 to 24 months of age to screen media slowly, and limiting screen time to an hour a day for children from 2 to 5 years of age. In the current study, researchers found that 87% of the children had screen time exceeding (超过) these recommendations. However, while screen time increased throughout toddlerhood, by age 7 and 8, screen time fell to under 1.5 hours per day. The researchers believe this decrease relates to time consumed by school-related activities.The study authors classified the children into two groups based on how much their average daily screen time increased from age 1 to age 3. The first group, 73% of the total had the lowest increase, from an average of nearly 51 minutes a day to nearly an hour and 47 minutes a day. The second group, 27% of the total, had the highest increase, from nearly 37 minutes of screen time a day to about 4 hours a day. Higher levels of parental education were associated with lower odds of inclusion in the second group.8. Who use mobile device longest according to the NIH's analysis?A. 10-year-old born to first-time mothers.B. 3-year-old children in low income families.C. 8-year-old children in home-based childcare.D. 1-year-old children with parents poorly educated.9. What does the research suggest according to Edwina?A. Parents should stop their children using media.B. Parents should limit the use of digital media themselves.C. Parents should reduce their children's screen time earlier.D. Parents should avoid their children using digital media at infancy (婴儿期).10. Why does children's screen time fall when they age 7 and 8?A. They are studying at school.B. They can control themselves.C. They are tired of using them.D. They are forbidden to use them.11. Which of the following may be the best title?A. Keep Away from MediaB. Screen Habits Begin EarlyC. Urgency of Parental EducationD. Harm of Home-based ChildcareDPlease take a few seconds and think of your personal biggest goal. Imagine telling someone you meet today what you’re going to do. Imagine their congratulations and their high image of you. Doesn’t it feel good to say it out loud? Don’t you feel one step closer already? Well, bad news: you should have kept your mouth shut, because that good feeling will make you less likely to do it.Any time you have a goal, there is some work that needs to be done to achieve it. Ideally, you would not be satisfied until you’d actually done the work. But when you tell someone your goal and he acknowledges(认可) it, psychologists have found it’s called a “social reality”. The mind is kind of tricked into feeling that it’s already done. And then, because you’ve felt that satisfaction, you’re less motivated to do the actual hard work necessary. This goes againstthe traditional wisdom that we should tell our friends our goals, right?In 1982, Peter Gollwitzer, a Professor of Psychology, wrote a whole book about this. And in 2009, he did some new tests that were published. It goes like this: 163 people across four separate tests—everyone wrote down their personal goal. Then half of them announced their commitment(许诺) to this goal to the room, and half didn’t. Then everyone was given 45 minutes of work that would directly lead them towards their goal, but they were toldthat they could stop at any time. Now those who kept their mouths shut worked the entire 45 minutes on average, and when asked afterwards, said they felt they had a long way to go to achieve their goal. But those who had announced it quit after only 33 minutes on average, and when asked afterwards, said that they felt much closer to achieving their goal.12. What do the words “social reality” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Completion of the goal.B. Necessary hard work.C. People's acknowledgement.D. A sense of satisfaction.13. What does Peter Gollwitzer try to tell us?A. Writing down the goal is very helpful.B. Achieving personal goal needs more time.C. Keeping the goal secret makes people work harder.D.

黑龙江省哈尔滨市第三十二中学2015届高三上学期期中考试英语试题一、阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）第一节（共15小题，满分30分）ACan you imagine being savagely attacked by a dog? What if the attack was so severe that your nose, lips and chin were completely destroyed? How would you feel about yourself? Would you be able to look at yourself in the mirror? And how do you think other people would treat you?Isabelle Dinoire is someone who can answer all of these questions honestly and openly.Last November Isabelle was attacked and mauled by her own dog. The attack was so severe that her lower face was damaged; it seemed, almost beyond repair. She was rushed to hospital and became the first person ever to have a face transplant.With such severe injuries doctors offered Isabelle little hope that they would be able to repair the damage to her face using conventional surgery.Shortly after being admitted, she came to the attention of Dr Bernard Devauchelle who, unlike other surgeons, believed there was an alternative "We found ourselves saying, yes, it's clear this woman needs a transplant," he said.Two days after the operation she saw her face in the mirror for the first time．She said, "I was scared to look at myself, but when I did it was already marvelous and I couldn't believe it．I thought it would be blue and swollen but it was already beautiful．"Now, less than a year after her 15-hour operation, she' s trying to rebuild her life and there is no doubt how she feels about her new face "I have been saved．Lots of people write saying that I need to go on, that it' s wonderful．It' s a miracle somehow．"Although there were ethical questions raised about their decision to carry out the procedure, the doctors who operated on Isabelle are quick to defend their decision．One of them said, "Was it possible for her to live without a face? It's easy to say we shouldn’t have done the operation, but her life has changed, she goes shopping, goes on holiday, she lives again．1．What would be the best title of the passage?A．A Face Operation B．The First Face TransplantC．The Most Severe Damaged Face D．The Breakthrough of Surgery2．The writer uses the five questions at the beginning of the passage to ______．A．tell the story about Isabelle Dinoire B．show a severe face damage eventC．invite the readers to answer them D．draw the readers attention to the topic 3．It can be concluded from Isabelle Dinoire' s remarks thatA．she was satisfied with the result of the operationB．she was too shocked to see herself in the mirrorC．she thought her damaged face couldn’t be repairedD．she looked more beautiful than beforeBNear the village, there is an old famous temple.

AEvery year at the start of a new school year, college freshman are occupied in dealing with the enrollment procedures and settling themselves in their new dormitories. Their parents, the super—protective Chinese ones, will always follow their children everywhere , anxious and worried.However, the new policy of Tsinghua University this semester is sending a message: boys and girls, it‘s time to become independent.On move—in day, a tallow line was drawn across the entrance of school area, separating parents from their children. The students themselves had to spend about three hours registering and finding their dormitories.By doing this, the university is asking students to“start this new adventure by standing on their own feet”，said Chen Jinjing，president of Tsinghua。

Following Tsinghua, other university have also made policies to encourage students to enroll alone.Oujiang College ,at Wenzhou University in Zhejiang ,has opened an online platform for freshmen to contact senior schoolmates who can guide them on enrollment day .Renmin University asked senior students to return to their hometowns and accompany freshmen to school.This change has excited many freshmen. Li Ming, a Tsinghuafreshman from Gansu province, took a train to Beijing with only one schoolmate .“It‘s my first long trip without my parents, and I am quite excited about it,”he said. ―Coming to the university begins a new stage of my life, and I should learn to take care of myself from the start. ‖Although some say such policies are not enough to make students independent, many believe it can help start to change the situation. ―Such campaigns help students realize they have to live on their own ,‖said Xiong Bingqi, vice-president of the 21st Century Education Research Institute.―The lack of independence has been a major concern for kids born in the 1990s, as parents arranged everything, which hampered (阻碍) children‘s all-around development.‖Xiong added.21.From the passage we can infer that____________.A.all universities don‘t require their freshmen to enroll themselvesB.all freshmen of Tsinghua are excited by the policyC.Li Ming, delighted by the policy , went to Tsinghua aloneD.senior students from Oujiang College should accompany freshmen to school22.If you are a freshmen of Renmin University, ____________.A.settle in your dormitory with the help of your parentsB.travel to the university all by yourselfC.a senior student may return to your hometown and accompany youback schoolD.finish registering alone23.The underlined word ―this‖in Paragraph 4 probably refers to ___________.A.encouraging freshmen to study hard and set a new goal.B.requiring freshmen to enroll and settle themselves in dormitories aloneC.drawing a yellow line to protect the freshmenD.separating freshmen from their friends and classmates24.According to Xiong Bingqi,_____________.A.the policy can help parents realize their mistake that they make their children independentB.parents are so concerned about kids born in the 1990s that they won‘t let children go anywhereC.children‘s lack of independence lead to their being lacking in all-around developmentD.Chinese parents do everything for their children, thus holding back their children‘s all-around developmentBIn the process that parents help kids to develop language and speech skills, listening to what they have to say is just as vital as talking to them, the researchers say.The influence of a conversation between a child and an adult is about five times as great as that of adult speech input alone,according to the researchers‘findings. ―Adults speaking to children helps language develop ,but what matters much more is the ineraction.‖said the study‘s lead author, Frederick Zimmerman, an associate professor in the School of Public Health at the Universaty of California,Los Angeles. The researchers also found that TV viewing didn‘t have much of an effect—ositively or negatively—as long as it wasn‘t replacing conversations between an adult and a child.The study included 275 families with children between 2 months and 48 months old. They represented a variety of incomes and education. The researchers found that , in an average day , children hear about 13,000 spoken words from adults and participated in about 400 adult-child conversations a day.Assessed separately, factors positively associated with language development included each additional 100 conversations a day and each 1,000 word increase in the number of words spoken by adults and heard by children. When locked at home alone,TV was negatively associated with language development. But ,when the three factors were analyzed together, the only one that stood out was conversation between adults and children.―The more a child speaks and interacts with an adult , the better ideaa parent has about where the child is.‖ Zimmerman said, ―Although it‘s mostly done unconsciously, parents will provide feedback and correct mistakes.They‘ll also tailor their speech to the child. Parents can give a child words by talking to them about what they‘re doing ,for example, ‗I‘m putting on your pajamas now ‘. But give your child the opportunity to talk , hopefully without the rest of the noise in the environment .‖ she added. ―If parents can carve out some conversation time –maybe at bath time or at dinner –that‘s a wonderful thing. ‖25.What ‗s the best title of the passage?A.Make Friend with Your KidsB.talk with Kids, Not at ThemC.Teach Children How to speakD.Tell Kids to Talk with Others26.The researchers also found that TV viewing____________.A.affected a child‘s language development greatly both negatively and positivelyB.could have a positive effect on a child‘s language developmentC.affected a child‘s language development more negatively than positivelyD. had a bit of impact on a child‘s language development27.We can draw a conclusion from the last paragragh that___________.A.parents-child conversation can be carried out at any proper timeB.parents should let a child repeat what he or she saysC.parents should leave a child talking aloneD.bath time or dinner time is the best chance for parents to talk to a child28.Frederick Zimmerman would probably agree that____________.A.it‘s not proper for parents to correct their children‘s mistakes when they are speakingB.Parents should let their children talk most of the timeC.children should watch TV programs selectivelyD.the conversation between parents and children should be two-wayCA.The Accommodation Office (Room 114)The Accommodation Office is the place to find everything concerning accommodation during your studying at this university .It offers a free advisory service and a wide range of handbooks and checklists covering the full range of housing available.

This data flood is already starting to transform business, government, science and everyday life. It has great potential for good-as long as consumers, companies and governments make the right choices about when to restrict the flow of data, and when to encourage it.A few industries have led the way in their ability to gather and take advantage of the data. Credit-card companies monitor every purchase and can identify cheats with a high degree of accuracy. Stolen credit cards are more likely to be used to buy hard liquor than wine, for example, because it is easier to overlook. Insurance firms are also good at combining clues to spot doubtful claims: dishonest claims are more likely to be made on a Monday then a Tuesday, since policyholders(保险客户) who arrange accidents tend to assemble friends as false witnesses over the weekend. By combining many such clues, it is possible to work out which cards are likeliest to have been stolen, and which claims are untrue. By analyzing ―basket data‖, supermarkets can make promotions to appeal to particular customers‘preferences. The oil industry uses supercomputers to help them before drilling wells.But the data flood also poses risks. There are many examples of datas being stolen: disks full of social-security data go missing , laptops loadedwith tax records are left in taxis, credit-card numbers are stolen by online purchase. The result can be privacy made public, identity stolen and cheats permitted large space. Rather than owning and controlling their own person data, they very often find that they have lost control of it. The best way to deal with the data flood is to make more data available in the right way, by requiring greater transparency in several areas. First, users should be given greater access to and control over the information held about them, including whom it is shared with. Google allows users to see what information it holds about them, and lets them delete their search histories or modify the targeting of advertising, for example .Second, organizations should be required to disclose details of security breaches(泄密)，as is already the case in some parts of the world ,to encourage bosses to take information security more seriously. Third, organizations should be subject to an annuai security check, with the resulting grade made public (though details of any problems exposed would not be). This would encourage companies to keep their security measures up to date.32.From the passage we can infer that______________.A.credit cards are not so secure to use and will go out of use very soonB.insurance firms have to investigate before they confirm their policyholders‘ claimsC.lots of data are lost because of hardware problemsD.online purchases are becoming more and more popular33.Which of the following is the writer‘s opinion about how to deal with the data flood?panies should update their measures to guarantee their data safety .anizations should keep their resulting grade of security checks unknown to the public.C.Personal information should be used for public information.D.The users should be given the right to access public information.34.From the passage we can couclude that______________.A.the information flood is more useful to organizations than to individualsB.the data flood makes people‘s life less convenient and more expensivepaines and insurance firms are responsible for the data floodD.the information flood has both positive and negative influence on modern life35.What‘s the main idea of the passage ?A.Data flood is available in every field.B.The harms that data flood has brought to people are on the increase.rmation flood is affecting people‘s life.D.Data flood has brought people some benefits.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AIn his new show, Evan Ruggiero plays guitar, sings pop standards and shows everybody his fine footwork. What makes all of these especially unusual is that Ruggiero, 24, has only one leg.When he was a 19-year-old musical theater student at New Jersey’s Montclair State University, Ruggiero had a rare bo ne cancer in his right leg. Finally his leg would have to be amputated (截) below the knee.Such a setback could have easily ended the career of a less tough person, but Ruggiero, who has been dancing since he was five, now puts the experience into his performance. His show, “The One-Legged Song and Dance Man: Volume 3”, explains how he returned to dance just 18 months after the amputation. His dance now relies on the use of a peg leg(假肢) , he explains.The secret to his surprising success, he says, was being a “stubborn” patient who refused to give up on his dance and performing studies, despite the advice of his doctor.“It was a real setback, but after it was all over, I said, ‘You know what? I need to pick up right where I left off and continue my career, ’ ” Ruggiero said.Ruggiero has come to view his peg leg as an instrume nt. “Tap dancers—they’re always calling themselves musicians, and their feet are their instrument, ” he said.Noting that many audience members will never have seen a one-legged dancer before coming to his show, Ruggiero says he won’t shy away from the physical “weakness” his performance shows because of his condition.“A lot of people have come up to me, and they always say, ‘You’re such a role model and an inspiration, ’ ”he said. “I’m honored when people say that, of course, but I’mjust trying to get on with my life.”21.What makes Ruggiero’s new show unusual?A. One-legged dance.B. His own artworks.C. The use of instrument.D. Songs of pop standard.22. According to the passage, it is true that________.A. Ruggiero i s a tough person with a strong willB. the setback has ended Ruggiero’s dance careerC. Ruggiero is dancing relying on others supportD. his doctor agreed he kept on dancing and studying23. When audience attend his performance, they may notice________.A. Ruggiero plays piano, sings and dancesB. Ruggiero is a dancer with the help of a peg legC. there are many tap dancers in the performanceD. Ruggiero pretends to be a physically normal person24. What ’ s the author ’ s attitude to Evan?A. WorryB. SympathyC. EncouragementD. PityBJack was born without eyes. He was very lucky as he grew up having other kittens (young cats) to socialize with, and was used to people from the moment he was born. However, when it came time to find the kittens homes, no one knew where Jack would end up.That’s when I got an e-mail from my friend. All she asked was "Do you still want one of the kittens? There’s one here with no eyes and no one would like to take him." Without thinking, I told her that I did want the kitten.When we first brought him home, Jack stayed mostly in my room. After about a day he had no issues running around and climbing on everything. At times he gets lost in the house, he’11 stop. But we just call him and talk to him and it isn’t long before he finds his way back to us.A few weeks after getting Jack, we got a new farm cat named Bear. Jack and Bear have become best friends. It doesn’t matter that he can't see. He always knows when Bear isaround. He’ll run across the yard straight to Bear and wrap his front legs around h is neck in a big hug. They run after each other around and wrestle. They’ll lie down in the grass together when tired.Jack is truly an inspiration. I've owned lots of kittens in my life, but Jack is the happiest and most playful. He doesn’t feel sorry for himself. He doesn't need pity. I think Jean, owner of Gumbo, another eyeless cat, said it best when she told me that cats don’t have disabilities, they have adaptability.25.Why did Jack come to our home?A. I cared for an eyeless cat.B. I didn't mind whether he was blind.C. No other young cats kept him company.D. My friend begged me to take him home.26.Which of the following statements is true?A. Jack often wrestles with Bear indoors.B. Jack likes to play with a new eyeless cat.C. Jack quickly adapts to the new environment.D. Jack is good at talking and playing with people.27. What does the underlined word "issues” in P aragraph 3 mean?A. Trouble.B. Fun.C. Luck.D. Business.28. What can we learn from the passage?A. A cat has nine lives.B. All is well that ends well.C. God helps those who help themselves.D. A good beginning makes a good ending.CThe British MuseumWhat’s onAlthough many parts of Asia have long been connected through trade along Silk Road and shared religious systems, there are strong regional differences.

I remember the shiny box on the wall. But I was too little to reach it. I could only listen to my mother talk on it.I discovered that inside the wonderful box lived an amazing person whose name was Information Please. There was nothing she did not know.One day my mother went out. I accidentally hurt my finger when I was playing with a hammer. I walked around the house sucking my finger, finally seeing the telephone. Quickly I dragged a chair over and climbed up.“Information Please, ” I spoke into the receiver. A click or two and a sm all clear voice spoke into my ear. “Information. ”“I hurt my finger---” ! cried into the phone.“Isn’t your mother home?” came the question.“Nobody’s home but me. ”I sobbed.“Are you bleeding?’’ the voice asked.“No, ” I replied, “ I hit my finger with the hammer and it hurts. ”“Can you open your icebox?” she asked.
