They would be so embarrassed (尴尬) that they would not 9 again if someone saw them fall . Or , because they fall , they would find a good 10 for themselves that they’re not fit for it .

They try again and again until they 12 . The answer must be that they have not connected “falling down” with the word “failure”. As a 13 , they are not discouraged in any way . Besides, they 14 think to themselves that it’s quite okay to fall down and that it’s not wrong to do so. In other words ,they allow themselves to make 15 , so they remain energetic.I was deeply impressed by the boy’s persistence (坚持不懈) and the manner in which he did.( ) 1.

That makes their teachers feel worried. Is your handwriting beautiful? If not, here are four steps that really work!◆Use paper that has linesUsing paper that has lines can keep you writing straight when you write words or sentences. Those lines on the paper can help you to write words in the right size. Be sure to fill the lined space completely.◆Slow downIf your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. For some kids, going slower makes the handwriting clear. If you write too fast, it’s hard for you to stop where you should, and even worse, you may make more mistakes.◆Hold your pen rightWhen you hold your pen the correct way, writing is much easier. Some kids press(按,压) down really hard when they write. That makes the handwriting not nice. Try to relax yourself and don’t hold the pencil so hard. Let your writing appear niceand clean. If you do so, people will guess you are a student with a good habit.◆Draw more picturesDrawing can improve your handwriting. You need to use the skills to control your pencil better when you are drawing pictures. Even though you have no chance to draw at school, you can practice by yourself at home.Handwriting is very important.

The United Nations wanted everyone to know that the world was in danger. They hoped something could be done.Here is one example of the problem. At one time there were 1,300 plants, trees and flowers in Holland, but now only 866 are left. The others have been destroyed bymodern man and his science. We are changing the earth, the air and the water and everything around us. We can't live without these things. If things go on like this, we shall destroy ourselves.What will happen in the future? Perhaps it is more important to ask, "What must we do?" More and more young people have known this. Many of them are helping to save our world. For example, they plant trees. In a small town in the United States a large group of girls cleaned the banks of 11 kilometers of their rivers. Young people may hear about conservation through a song called "No one's going to change our world". It was made by Gliff Richard and other singers.

WEEK 7 情感世界(2)一、阅读理解(共13小题;共26分)AI felt very sorry and angry when I heard the news that a cadet(预备警官) from the Cleveland Police Department was not allowed to graduate with his class because of his stutter(口吃) even though he finished his training.This news not only impacts Mr. Jackson and other people who stutter, but countless other individuals with various communication disorders seeking employment, especially those who have proven capable of the career they are pursuing despite their challenge.I grew up with a stutter. Does this mean I shouldn't have pursued journalism because I stutter? Does this mean I shouldn't conduct interviews, and speak up at meetings? Does this mean that my voice doesn't matter because at times I may need an extra moment or two to get my words together? I remember in high school and college when, as students, we were preparing to choose what we wanted to do for the rest of our lives. Many of my friends had ambitions—and are successful at what they do—in teaching, graphic design and doctors.For me, I limited options because of my stutter. I crossed off being a television host since I would have to talk fluently for long periods of time. I'm clearly not going to be an orator. I also shied away from being a teacher and speaking in front of a classroom full of students.As I look back now, I realize that the thing really holding me back wasn't stuttering. It was fear. Fear of being made fun of because of a stutter. Fear of having anxiety in a situation where I would have needed to say something but was unable to.There are so many people who are successful despite having a stutter that it gives me hope that I am able to pursue what I want to do. Now I have made it in journalism. I believe people who stutter can achieve success in every profession imaginable.We should follow our dreams wherever they may take us. Fear should never hold us back. Stuttering should not be a barrier from entering any profession.1. What do you know about Mr. Jackson?A. He suffers from the stutter.B. He graduates with his class.C. He has become a policeman.D. He didn't finish his training.2. We can learn that the writer .A. is very familiar with Mr. JacksonB. has cured Jackson of his stutterC. used to interview Mr. JacksonD. shows sympathy for Mr. Jackson3. According to the passage, the writer is probably a/an .A. actorB. doctorC. reporterD. teacher4. The underlined phrase "shied away from" can be replaced by .A. enjoyedB. avoidedC. mindedD. practisedB"Hey, Brenda, is it OK if I sit here maybe?"Sorry. Our table is full."I was in fourth grade. I was new at school. And each day I ate lunch alone. I would often sit at the end of a long table of people. I tried to look busy, taking long, slow bites of my favorite bologna. I prayed for time to move faster.This experience hurt. It hurt not to belong to a tribe. I wanted to tell my mom. I wanted to tell her that I was embarrassed to sit at a lunch table by myself. I wanted to ask her what was wrong with me. But I couldn't do that, because my mom loved me and I knew she would try to fix my problem. She would try to call other moms and make me friends. She would do this out of love, but it would make me feel worse. So I ignored the problem.I ate lunch alone for months until one day I came home, went straight to my room and burst into tears. The pain of my loneliness could no longer be contained. My mom came in and sat down on the bed beside me.She gently asked, "Honey, what's been going on?"Finally, I said, "Mommy, I eat lunch alone."Those five words broke my mom's heart. I could see the pain in her eyes.My mom said to me, "Baby, I know it hurts. When I came to this country from India I didn't know anyone.""But you have lots of friends.""Now I do, honey, but I didn't know anyone when I came. And when I got my first job as a teaching assistant, I also ate my lunch alone for a while. It made me feel sad. Is that how you feel?""Yeah, it makes me sad.""Yes, that's something we go through sometimes. But you know what I learned? Most hard things we face in life don't last forever. Be patient and sincere and you will make many friends in no time." On hearing the words, I felt much better. I made up my mind to face the challenges more confidently and blend into my classmates.5. What made the writer sad?A. She didn't fit in with the timetable.B. She ate lunch on her own every day.C. She didn't keep up with her lessons.D. She didn't get along well with her teacher.6. We can infer that bologna is a kind of .A. gameB. foodC. bookD. challenge7. Why did the writer cry?A. She felt very lonely.B. She felt very excited.C. She felt very annoyed.D. She felt very disappointed.8. In which column of a newspaper can you probably find the article?A. Travel.B. Sports.C. Entertainment.D. Parenting.COn May 27th, 1998 I was driving my 13-year-old daughter and 14-year-old son to school. Unfortunately my car crashed with a truck. All three of us were critically injured. Stacey's brain injury was the most severe. Despite all attempts to save her she died two days later. When I became conscious, I heard my husband talking to the organ donor coordinator (器官捐献协调员).We knew that Stacey would want that because that's the kind of person she was. She always wanted to assist people. She was always smiling and brought so much joy to others. She was friendly and enjoyed writing stories and poetry.It has been a comfort to know that Stacey lives on in the lives of others. I have even met the family of one of Stacey's kidney recipients. This little girl was 6 years old at the time of the transplant. She was suffering from Nephrotic Syndrome. I saw pictures showing the effects of the Nephrotic Syndrome and the pictures of her after the transplant. They already showed an amazing difference. We correspond every year through letters, cards and pictures. The girl is doing really well at school and will be graduating from high school next year. I am so grateful that we have this relationship. I also feel relieved that my daughter has made so great a difference to a person's life.Over the years, I have had some kind of contact with all of the recipients except the heart recipient. I'm very sorry for that. I would love to hear something from the heart recipient's family. There are so many things that I wonder about her. I wonder if she is anything like Stacey...does she smile all the time, does she enjoy writing stories and poetry, etc. I do hope that they can contact us!I feel guilt because I was the one driving in the accident which caused Stacey's death. I also feel proud that my daughter has helped so many people.9. When did Stacey die from the traffic accident?A. On May 27th, 1998.B. On May 29th, 1998.C. On May 30th, 1998.D. On June 2nd, 1998.10.

What is the writer's attitude towards the heart recipient's family?A. Grateful.B. Pleased.C. Dissatisfied.D. Positive.13. The writer has been looking forward to .A. seeing the heart recipientB. getting paid from the heart recipientC. contacting the kidney recipientD. donating her kidney二、完形填空(共20小题;共30分)Facebook is ubiquitous.

Smiling is something that makes us feel good about ourselves and others. Each time we smile, we feel a sense of humour and enjoyment. However, do you know why people smile?One of the most common times we smile is when something is funny to us. When encountering things that are funny or humorous, many of us laugh.Although many times we smile when things are funny to us, other times we smile when we find things out of the ordinary. Go to any magic show, and you may find individuals smiling at the tricks. Likewise, watch someone tell an obvious lie and you find individuals smiling.In almost any restaurant, or a place where it involves customer service, you will find the workers smile. It is their job to welcome you. For this reason they must smile. It is done not only because they must smile but also because the person likes you and wants to smile. Babies do this all the time. Try to pick it up and if it likes you it will smile, but if it doesn't, it will cry for its mother.Another reason why we smile is that something is really exciting. People at amusement parks smile down roller coasters (过山车). Children at parks smile on swings. Whenever something is exciting or enjoyable, we smile, as a form of saying we like it or we can't wait for it.Go around and watch people smile, and you will find it is because of the above reasons. Whatever the case is, those are reasons why we smile and smiling really brings a sense of enjoyment to ourselves and others.根据短文内容,完成表格,每空只填1个单词。

题十七:“Cool” is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the word has changed, the word has had many different meanings. “Cool” can be used to express feelin gs of interest in almost anything.When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say, “It’s cool.” You may think, “He’s so cool,” when you see your favorite footballer. We all maximize (扩大) the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many wo rds such as “new” or “surprising”. Here’s an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall (瀑布) they had visited. On one student’s paper was just the one sentence, “It’s so cool.” M aybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.But the story also shows a scarcity (缺乏) of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep somecredibility (可信性). Can you think of many other words that make your life as colorful as the word “cool”? I can. And I think they are also very cool.1. We know that the word “cool” has had ______.A. only one meaningB. no meaningsC. many different meaningsD. the same meaning2.

On the street, men almost always walk or cross the street on the closer side of the ladies to the traffic. But if a man walks with two ladies, he should walk between them. Then if the host (男主人) or hostess (女主人) or both of them come in a car to get their guest for dinner, the guest should sit at the front seat and leave the back seat though there is no people sitting on it.1.
