They want to use robots to carry heavy things over difficult land.But providing enough power for those kinds of robots has been a probl em. Now, that has changed. Engineers at MIT have designed a running robot that runs on batteries. Scientists say their robots will soon be able to run like cheetahs, the fastest land animals on Earth.One difficulty in d esigning these types of robots continues to be providing power. These machines are still quite heavy and they need a lot of power to run. But the cheetah-like robot designed by engineers at MIT is light enough m run on batteries.The robot weighs just 30 kilograms. The robot needs only about 700 watts of power to run. This robot can actually jump 40cm high and it can land very safely and then it can run. The robots limbs and other parts were made in a three-dimensional or 3D printer. A strong, light-weight material called Kevlar is used to make the robot's part stronger.But the devel opment of MITs robot is not without its own set of problems. The robot's limbs must support heavy force, and sometimes they break.Scientists say the new technol ogies used on this robot may be used in the making of limbs for disabled persons and other machines. Some of those machines may help save humans from performing difficult and dangerous jobs.6.What is the chall enge in designing the four-l eg robots?A.carrying heavy things B.Running fast.C.Being light enough.

Songs express feelings with lyrics, but music with tones (音调).Unlike songs, music tones in themselves have no specific meanings.

Different people like different music: some l ove classical music, and others take an interest in pop music. Most young people like pop music.Pop music began in the USA and became popular around the worl d during the 1950s and 1960s.The best-known early kind of pop music was “rock and roll”. Pop music has taken the place of native music in many parts of the world. It has caused the number of people for “jazz” music to become much smaller than in the 1950s and earlier and it has now begun to become the most popular. Much pop music is without artistic value (价值), but the works of some pop singers such as the Beatles, Bob Dylan, the groups like Pink Floyd and Crosby are excellent.

It was about 15 miles away on the other side of the hill. There we felt sure that we would find a bed for the night . Darkness fell along the narrow road to the hill. As we climbed higher, it became colder and rain began to fall. It was difficult at times to see the road, so I asked my friend John to drive slowly.Now we traveled for about 20miles but we could not find the town. We were beginning to feel worried. Then the car stopped. We found we were out of petrol, so we decided to spend the nightin the car.After eating some bread, I tried to go to sleep at once, but John, a poor sleeper, got out of the car after a few minutes and went for a walk up the hill. Soon he came running back. From the top ofthe hill he had seen the lights of the town in the valley below. We at once tried to push car to thetop of the hill. In less than an hour we were in the town, and we found a hotel there easily.1.

Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is alittle bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings. "Cool" can be used to express feelings of interest in almost everything.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 favourite football player.We all maximize(扩大)the meaning of "cool". You can use it instead of many words, 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 student to write about the waterfall(瀑布) they had visited. On the student's paper was just the one sentence,"It's so cool."Maybe he thought it was the best way to show whathe 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 some credibility(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 arealso very cool.1.We know that the word "cool" has had ________.A. only one meaningB. no meaningC. many different meanings2.In the passage, the word "express" means "_______".A. seeB. showC. know3.If you are ________ something, you may say,"It's cool."A. interested inB. angry aboutC. worried about4.The writer takes an example to show he is ________ the way the word is used.A. pleased withB. strange toC. worried about5.In the passage, the writer suggests(暗示)that the word "cool"___________.A. can be used instead of many wordsB. usually means something interestingC. can make your life colorfulC B A A C(六)Last week, 169 Junior 1 students at No. 35 Middle School of Shenyang took their first no-teacher exam. After the teacher handed out the exam paper, he left the room and never came back. A student collected in the papers when the exam ended."That test was not only a test of knowledge, but also a test of moral (道德). We wanted to show students how important honesty is," said Cai Wenguo , the school's headmaster. The school saysno cheating (作弊)happened in the test. Next year, it wants 80% of its exams to be without teachers. But students have different ideas."I was happy and excited during the exam because my teachers trusted (信任) me," said Lang Yudan, a 13-year-old girl in Class 11."Schools must trust students a lot not to use invigilators (监考人). But I think it is too early. Somestudents will cheat if there are no invigilators. And the students will not be able to ask for helpwhen needed, 99 said Hua Sha."I don' t like having invigilators in exams. When they walk around the classroom, they make me nervous. I would get higher marks without them in the room because I would feel more relaxed,"Liu Qingxi said."I think it's very important to have invigilators in exams. Many students want to check their answers with each other after they have finished papers. And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens. Theymay make me nervous, but I still think we need them," Shangguan Yuan said.Not using invigilators may be a good idea. But before using it, schools must tell students the importance of honesty and try to find ways to solve something unusual in exams.( ) 1.

The meeting, the Sixth World Trade Organization (WTO) Ministerial Conference (世界贸易组织第六次部长级会议), will be held from December 13 to 18.Poor countries say that the WTO's international trade rules are not fair. The rules allow rich countries, like the US and those of the EU, to give money, or subsidies (津贴), to their farmers. With the subsidies, farmers are able to sell their crops at lower prices.As a result, world prices go down. Farmers in poor countries that don't have subsidies get less money and even lose their livelihoods.Since China joined the WTO in 2001, for example, lots of subsidized US cotton (棉花) has been sold in the country. Cotton prices fell from about 6 yuan to less than 3 yuan per kg in 2001 and 2002.Every year, rich countries support their farmers with more than US$300 billion. During the coming Hong Kong meeting, poorer nations will ask the rich nations to get rid of the subsidies. Zhang Xiangchen, a senior official from China's Ministry of Commerce (商务部), said China believes that rich countries should end their subsidies by 2010.1.

He handed me the rod(鱼杆)and taught me how to throw my line into the water.The sun warmed us. We sat and talked. “I remember when I coul d sit here and watch the fish swimming in the water,” he said. “Sometimes, they’d jump out and land beside me. I didn’t even need a fishing rod then.”“We have to be patient,” he continued. “The fish may come or may not. It doesn’t matter. We are out in the sun. It’s a beautiful day. If it rained, we couldn’t be here. We’re lucky to have the warmth of the sun.”He leaned(倚靠)back against a tree. “Yes, it’s a great day,” he said.I watched our bobbers(浮子). No fish pull ed them under the water that day. It didn’t matter. I was with Grandpa. I felt grown up. Just being with him was special.He was well liked by everyone. He had worked hard all his life for what little he had, but he could still find time to laugh. I wanted to be like him when I grew up.He was an amazing man.

Without snakes, perhaps we would find mice everywhere, Most of us, however, woul d rather see a mouse than a snake, The poison argument( 毒性的争论)is a strong one, Some snakes are poisonous, and this causes people’s death , However, the poisonous snakes are only a small number. We can’t say all the snakes are bad just because of a few dangerous ones. And what d o we do with the people who really like snakes? They like snakes even more strongly than we dislike them. These people learn about them, find them out, and watch them carefully, Why? The only reason I can think of is that these people are open-minded, They are abl e to put asid e differences and welcome the snake as a friend.Whatever the reason for our like or dislike, snakes d o something good in the circle of life.They would prefer to be left alone, and that is what we should d o, If you’re lucky, you might not run across more than a few of them in a lifetime, That would be fine with most of us.15.How d oes the writer d escribe the appearance of snakes?A.Something even without legs.B.Something not popular among people.C.A person who is neutral.D.A person who cares about nothing.16.Which of the foll owing shows that most peopl e dislike snakes?A.They wel come snakes as their best friends.B.They would rather see a mouse than a snake.C.They wonder why snakes can cause great fear.D.They learn about snakes and watch them carefully.17.Although some snakes are poisonous, _______.A.they cause many people’s deathB.they control the population of miceC.they are not dangerous to peopl eD.they are only a small number18.The last paragraph seems to tell us that the writer _______.A.dislikes snakesB.has the best luckC.l oves snakesD.prefers to be l eft al oneThe Westwood Mid dl e School has d ecid ed to hol d a blood drive (献血活动), and you can help.Help with The Blood DriveThe School is holding a bl ood drive for teachers, parents, and town people.

This is exactly what happened with Du Haotian, a student from Shaanxi province. The potato chips Du is making are called guoba, usually made of millet rice(小米), but here Du chose col ored potatoes as the ingredients(原料).Zhenba, in the south of Shaanxi, has been trying to sell high-quality(质量)potatoes. But the sales are at a l ow l evel. Du, a stud ent of Northwest Agriculture and Forestry University, together with his team, introduced col orful potatoes and mad e them into crispy, fried potato snacks. After trying again and again, it gradually turned into a popular snack at Du’sunive rsity. At the end of last year, Du’s team set up their own factory in the village to plant and produce the snacks locally. At the beginning of this year, the production line was put into use.However, whil e helping the local community, Du was under pressure to graduate. Although he was supposed to graduate in June 2020, Du offered to put off graduation for one year. Du said the production line project was still on the way and he wanted to live up to the expectations of the villagers. “A lot of my friends a nd teachers told me not to do that. But if the factory is built but does not run well, it woul d be against my original intention(初心).” Finally, Du’s teacher supported him.Recently, Du’s potato snacks took part in a college food competition. His product w as once in the first place with the support of many local villagers, which touched Du. “Rural revitalization(乡村振兴)depends on industrial revitalization. I want to make an effort with my hard work in this process.”22.What’s Du’s guoba made of?A.millet rice B.crispy corn C.sweet potatoes D.col orful potatoes23.How did Du’s team help potato sal es in Zhenba?A.They planted high-quality potatoes.

Well, some people can’t recognize this many because of colorblindness. If someone iscol orblind, that means he can’t see as many col ors as others –or, in rare cases, can’t see col ors at all.Thankfully, special glasses have already been made to help fix some types ofcol orblindness. Now, according to a recent research, scientists have brought this solution one step further. Karepov and Ellenbogen, engineers from Israel have found a way to apply this technology to contact lenses (隐形眼镜). This method is so creative because it can solve many different kinds of visual (视力的) problems.People are able to see color because of how the eye is structured. At the back of our eyes, there’re three different kinds of cells that absorb (吸收) light waves. When light waves are absorbed, the cells send a message to the brain for the image to be processed.If something is wrong with these cells, this can cause probl ems when the brain processes the image. One of the most common types of colorblindness is red-greencol orblindness. People who have this specific type of visual imperfection have difficulty telling apart the col ors red and green.“It would influence simple daily routines such as telling the col ors of traffic lights,” Karepov explained. He also stressed the importance of using this finding to create special contact lenses instead of relying on col or-correcting glasses.Whet her you prefer to wear glasses or contacts, it’s nice to know that people who are col orblind will soon be able to choose between the two, as well.31.The writer leads in the topic by _______ at the beginning of the passage.A.describing a fact B.listing a numberC.asking a question D.giving an example32.The second paragraph mainly tells us about _______ colorblindness.A.the main cause of B.the different kinds ofC.a simpl e tool to find D.a new method to fix33.The und erlined word “imperfection” in Parag raph 4 is cl osest in meaning to _______.A.experience B.weakness C.language D.examination34.The overall tone (总基调) of the passage is _______.A.personal and d oubtful B.sad but humorousC.scientific and promising D.informative but meaninglessOne of the things to be learnt in a foreign language is guessing all the time what kind of thing to come when listening to someone talking. Peopl e d o this all the time in their own language, so it is necessary to d o this in a foreign language, too. Here are some examples.1.” What’s the matter?” “I went to a party last night, so I…”2.”I feel so tired these days.” “I think you’d better…”3.”Of course, she never stops talking. She is one of the most…”You can see from the above three examples that the context helps a lot in understanding what is being talked about. So “guessing” is very important in understanding English, especially spoken English.35.This passage tells us mainly about ________.A.the importance of “guessing” in learning a foreign language.B.how to guess what one is going to talk about.C.Some examples of right guessing.D.how important it is to guess all the time.36.From the context, we can see maybe the finished answer in EXAMPLE 1 is ________.A.…so I didn’t have a good time.”B.…so I went to bed very late.”C.…so I felt unhappy.”D.…so I got up very early.”37.Maybe the finished answer in EXAMPLE 2 is ________.A.“I think you’d better have a good rest and take good care of yourself.”B.“I think you’d better have something to drink.”C.“I think you’d better get some help from your friends.”D.“I think you’d better to be more careful.”38.From the passage we can infer that guessing is ________ in l earning a foreign language.A.the only wayB.more important in spoken English than in written English.C.more important than any other wayD.more important in written English than in spoken EnglishMr. Smith is fifty years old.

Since many foreign tourists have known little about, here is some information about it.An end and new beginningBy the time of Shuangjiang. most of the harvesting (丰收) work is already completed in northern China .Farmers are now able to enjoy a period of rest.But in the south .the harvest is still in its best time, as farmers have to take home the sweet potatoes before they are destroyed by the coming frost.Across the country, after year of farming, now it is time to pl ow the fields and prepare the soil for next year.Enjoy the flaming red mapl e leaves (枫叶)Autumn might be the most col orful season in China with the leaves turning fromgol den yell ow to red. Activities like hiking become popular as people appreciate the bright red leaves.Nearly all the tourist websites list the best places for admiring the red maple leaves during this time, and many cities start to offer official routes for the best views of the leaves.Appreciating in the view an old tradition starting in ancient times .Du Mu ,awell-known poet from the Tang Dynasty (618-907) described the mountainous scenery in a poem :“ stopped the coach as charmed by the maple woods ; Frosted autumn leaves outshine February fl owers in redness.”Best time to adjust (调整)to a healthy lifestyl eIt is said that Shuangjiang is the best time to adjust to a nourishing (营养的) life, which reflects the belief that this is an important time to focus (关注) on health.

These imports also include solid waste, such as plastics, paper and metals. They mainly come from countries like the United States, the United Kingd om and Japan.These goods will no l onger be imported next year. China will ban(禁止) all imports of solid waste starting from Jan 1, 2021, said the Ministry of Ecol ogy and Environment(MEE).Why d oes China import this waste? In 1980, China’s economy(经济) was gradually taking off because of the reform and opening-up policy(改革开放政策). The country’s factories didn’t have enough raw materials(原材料) at that time. Therefore, China began importing solid waste. After being processed, it can be turned into materials that are used to make other products.For years, China has been the worl d’s largest importer of solid waste, with about 45 million tons arriving each year. Countries that send this waste to China pay about $25(163 yuan) to $50 per ton for recycling, China News Agency reported.Although the waste has helped develop China’s economy, it has brought more risks than benefits. Waste that can’t be used is either burned or buried(填埋). The water used to wash the waste is all owed to fl ow into nearby rivers. This has polluted the air, soil and water, posing a risk to public health, China Daily reported.China has made some efforts to ban waste since 2017. From 2017 to 2019, imports of solid waste fell by 68 percent, dropping from 42 million to 13 million tons, Xinhua reported.What about China’s waste?China can produce enough raw materials to support its economy now. However, it is also producing a rapidly-increasing amount of waste.In 2019, the government worked out a guideline for the creation of zero solid waste programs. These programs have been carried out in 11 cities and five districts(区域), including Shenzhen in Guangdong province and Weihai in Shandong province.50.After Jan 1, 2021, what will no l onger be all owed in China?A.Importing plastic products from abroad.B.Buying solid waste from abroad.C.Selling metals to other countries.D.Producing solid waste.51.What d o we know from Paragraphs 3 and 4?A.Many factories used to use solid waste to make products.B.About 45 million tons of waste are processed worl dwide each year.C.China has made a l ot of money by importing waste.D.It costs very littl e money to recycl e solid waste.52.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?A.How solid waste has helped China’s devel opment.B.What we can do to protect ourselves from waste.C.What risks solid waste brought to China.D.How solid waste should be dealt with.53.According to the last paragraph, which word d escribes China’s efforts to ban waste?A.wasteful B.effective(有效的) C.chall enging D.expensiveBeijing Opera, also called Peking Opera, is our national opera. It came into being (形成) after 1790 and has a history of over 200 years. Its music and singing came from Xipi and Erhuang in Anhui and Hubei. The Guangxu Emperor (帝王) and Empress Dowager Cixi were also crazy about Beijing Opera and helped d evelop the art form.There are four main rol es in Beijing Opera: Sheng, Dan, Jing, Chou. Sheng is the leading male (男性) actor. For example, a Wusheng is a soldier or fighter. A Xiaosheng is a young man.A Laosheng is an old man with beard (胡子). Dan is the female (女性) role.

Some of the stories are from history books, but most are from famous novels. The people in the stories usually can’t agree with each other. They become angry, unhappy, sad and l onely. Sometimes they are afraid and worried. Then they find a way to make peace with (与……讲和) each other. Everyone is usually happy in the end.Beijing Opera is an important part of Chinese culture.

So far, I like New York and my school. I have three classes a day.

It’s on the new wallpaper you just hung up in the living room.I told him you would be mad at him for d oing it again,but I couldn’t stop him.” She let out a long sound and asked,“He did it again?Where is your little brother now?” “He is in his room,”the son answered quickly.She walked to th e younger son’s room.She called his full name as she entered.Then,she found Tyler.He was trying to hide.He knew that the worst moment was corning! For the next 10 minutes,the room was full of her shouting about the expensive wallpaper.She punished the littl e boy for his bad behavior.Then,she headed for the living room to see what happened.As she saw the wall,her eyes fl ooded with tears at once.It said“I l ove Mommy”and was surrounded with a heart.Well, the wallpaper remained,just as she found it,with an empty picture frame hung around it.A reminder to her and to all:Take time to read the handwriting on the wall.So when you are sure that something goes wrong,have you ever had any doubt that there might be a misunderstanding?

Don’t worry just startsl owly working through some of the pages in the sections that are most interesting and useful to you. The more English you read and listen to, the more you will learn.Best wishes, Jo (Learn English Teens Team)8 April, 2021—19:22 Forever-in-dreamThank you for these tips. They help me very much. But I’m taking an English exam (speaking)this Friday and I’m a bit scared about it. I can’t stop being nervous, so in this condition I always say something wrong with l ong pauses(停顿). Can you suggest me anything to deal with it?9 April, 2021—10:14 JoHi Forever-in-dream,Thanks for your comment(评论). OK, first thing to remember is that everyone gets nervous for speaking exams. It’s totally natural to feel nervous. Also, it’s normal to make some mistakes. The examiners will not expect you to do the exam perfectly and they will get a good idea about your level of English even if you make some mistakes. If you make a mistake and you realize right away, then go back and say it again. We all d o this sometimes even when we are speaking our native(本土的)language. Also it’s normal to pause and think when you’re speaking in your own language and in a foreign language, so try not to worry about that.So, take a d eep breath before you start the exam and remember that these feelings are natural. In fact feeling a bit nervous sometimes helps you to d o your best.Good luck! Jo(Learn English Teens Team)24.Which of the foll owing is TRUE according to the passage?A.If you want to improve English, you shoul d read and listen to more English.B.You cannot go back and say it again if you make a mistake in a speaking exam.C.You will get bad grades if you have a pause and think in your own language.D.Feeling a little nervous always helps you to d o your best during an exam.25.Which of the foll owing does Jo think is normal?A.Making mistakes. B.Listening to others.C.Having an exam. D.Speaking English.26.What can we infer(推断)from the passage?A.Jo comes from the United Kingdom.B.Jo, Hu Bo and Forever-in-dream are good friends.C.Hu Bo and Forever-in-dream are good at speaking English.D.Jo’s job is to help teens with English and answer their questions.27.Where might you see these messages?A.On TV. B.In a book. C.On a website. D.On a newspaper.When you l earn English, you'll find it not easy to translate a sentence, word by word, into Chinese. Take the sentence “Get cold feet.” for example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a time, what is your translation? It must be a wrong sentence in your own language. If you want to get the right answer, you need read more information or ask your teacher for help. Finally, you can get it-“Feel afraid and stay where you are.”Languages don't just have different sounds and they are different in many ways. It's important to master the rul es for word order in the study of English, too. If the speakers put words in different orders, the listeners may understand the speakers' sentences in different ways. When the order of words in an English sentence is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn't change. For exa mple, “I have seen the film already” “I have already seen the film.”But sometimes the meaning of the sentence will change if the ord er of words in an English sentence is changed. For example, “She only likes apples.” “Only she likes apples.”English is a foreign language, which is spoken by peopl e all over the world. When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit of the language and use it as the English speaker d oes.28.When we translate an English sentence, what shoul d we d o?A.Look up each word in the dictionary and translate it word by word.B.Connect the meaning of every word with Chinese.C.Try to say anything in Chinese.D.Read more information or ask teachers for help.29.If the speakers put the order of words differently, the listeners ________.A.can master the rules for word ord er B.can't guess the changeC.may misunderstand the meaning D.may not und erstand the sounds 30.“She only likes apples.” is ________ “Only she likes apples.”A.different from B.the same as C.changed by D.spoken by 31.Which of the foll owing is TRUE according to the passage?A.“Get cold feet.” means “Feel afraid and run away.”B.It's easy to master the rules for word order in the study of English.C.If the order of words in English sentences is changed, the meaning of the sentence may change.D.When you learn English, you shouldn't get the spirit of the language.32.Where is the passage probably from?A.A travel magazine. B.A storybook.C.A language learning website. D.The CD player instructions.Language students often think they have memory probl ems. They worry because they can't remember words. In fact, the probl em usually isn't with their memory. The probl em is with how they study.To remember words better, you need to understand how memory works. There are two kinds of memory: short-term and l ong-term. When you see, hear, or read something, it goes first into short-term memory. But short-term memory lasts for only a few seconds. You will only remember something longer if it goes into l ong-term memory. Your long-term memory is like a very big library with many, many books. And like a library, it's organized. When you put away a book or memory you can't just leave it anywhere. You have to choose a place where you can find it again.How can you do this with vocabulary? The answer is to work with the word and think about the word in new ways. You can d o this by writing new sentences that includ e it. Even better, you can invent a littl e story about the word, with peopl e or places that you know. Another way is to make a picture in your mind with the word. For example, if the word is height, you can think of the tall est person you know and try to guess his or her height. All of these activities are good ways to think about words. They make the meaning of words stronger in your l ong-term memory. And they give a way to find a word when you need it. 33.In the writer's opinion, students can't remember words because ________.A.they have memory problems B.they are too worriedC.they don't use a proper way D.they d on't like to study34.Which is TRUE about memory according to the passage?A.Short-term memory is seld om used.B.What we see goes into l ong-term memory first.C.We will forget a word soon if it goes into short-term memory.D.We will never forget a word if it goes into l ong-term memory.35.The underlined(划线的)part in Paragraph 2 means l ong-tern memory ________. A.works like a well-organized libraryB.provides any book you wantC.leaves memory anywhereD.keeps many books like a large library36.This passage mainly tells us about ________.A.students' language probl ems in studyB.how to make the meaning of words strongerC.short-term and l ong-term memoryD.how to improve ways to remember wordsHomework is a probl em for students all over the world. As a student, you have a l ot of homework to do every day. It's a major part of a student's schooldays. It's the best way to review what you have l earned in class. And it helps you und erstand important concepts(概念).Luckily, there are several things you can do to make homework less diffiicult.Be sure you understand the homeworkWrite your homework d own in your notebook if you need to. Don't be afraid to ask questions about it. It's much easier to ask the teacher during or after class than to try to remember later that night!Use your time at schoolMany schools have study halls. It is d esigned to all ow stud ents to study on their own. It's more interesting to play with your friends. But the more homework you finish at school, the less you’ll have to d o that night.Take a breakIt's difficult to hold your attention for too l ong. So take some breaks while doing your homework. Siting for too long without relaxing will make you feel very tired. Taking a15-minute break every hour is a good idea for most peopl e.Make a planIf you d on't finish your homework at school, think about how much you have left, so you can budget your time. Most students have between 1 hour and 3 hours of home-work a night. If it's a heavy homework day, you'll need to spend more time on it. It's a good idea to make a homework timetabl e, especially when you want to enjoy sports or other activities. 37.The first paragraph is mainly about_____A.why homework is hard to d oB.why students should do homeworkC.how much homework students shoul d d oD.when students shoul d d o homework38.You shoul d d o the foll owing things EXCEPT____A.writing your homework d own in your notebookB.trying to finish your homework at schoolC.d oing homework without taking a breakD.making a plan for your homework39.The underlined word "budget"in the passage means"______".A.plan B.save C.waste D.kill40.The writer advises students to______if the homework is heavy.A.do l ess homework at nightB.do other activities firstC.take a break and do some choresD.make a homework timetabl e41.Which of the foll owing is the best title for the passage?A.Too much homework means too much pressureB.Students shoul d learn to relaxC.Ways to make homework easierD.Problems students meet when d oing homeworkHow l ong are you willing to wait for a webpage to open before you start to l ose your patience? Half a minute? A few seconds? Googl e engineers have discovered that even 400 milliseconds―as short as the blink of an eye―is too l ong for most Internet users.A millisecond is one thousandth of a second. People hardly notice such a small time difference, but it does cause them to stop searchi ng, reported The New York Times. “Without question, nobody likes to wait,” said Arvind Jain, a Google engineer. “Every millisecond matters.”Nowadays, millions of smart-phones and computers are continually gathering and sending out information. With so many peopl e d ownloading maps, sports vid eos, news and restaurant recommendations, you can get digital “traffic jams”. Meanwhile, users are expecting faster and faster service.Google found that if one website is 250 milliseconds sl ower than another website, then people will visit it l ess often. This is why technol ogy companies are now competing to be the fastest. Googl e said people d o expect different things from different websites because they realize not all l oading times are the same. For exampl e, a person will be more patient waiting for a video to load than for a search result.Even so, four out of five online users will click away if a video takes too l ong to l oad. This makes it difficult for vid eo websites to choose between the quality of pictures and fast l oadingtimes.Trying to get a higher speed has always been part of the history of the Internet. In the 1990s, when the Worl d Wid e Web first started to become popular, it was very crowded andsl ow; people call ed it the “Worl d Wide Wait”. But engineers m anaged to fight the problem with new inventions. They laid a lot of fiber optic cables (光缆)for sending in high speed; they improved software so it woul d work more smoothly; they placed computer servers all around the world to be nearer to users; all this increased speed.Nowadays we can enjoy much faster Internet. Famous search engines such as Google and Microsoft’s Bing usually find search results in less than asecond.____________________________________________________42.The report from The New York Times suggests thatA.A millisecond is one thousandth of a second.B.400 milliseconds is not so l ong for most Internet users.C.A millisecond has nothing to do with the Internet speed.D.A millisecond really makes a difference to the Internet users.43.The engineers did something to improve the speed, including _____.a. making software work more smoothlyb. laying a number of fiber optic cabl es insidec. placing computer servers throughout the worl dd. developing the quality of pictures on the InternetA.a b c B.b c d C.a c d D.a b d44.Which of the foll owing is true according to the passage?A.The quality of pictures comes first for video websites.B.Google is 250 milliseconds sl ower than other websitesC.Microsoft’s Bing is the fastest engine the wo rld nowD.Peopl e are more likely to wait for l oading films than maps45.What d oes the underlined sentence mean?A.Internet users are willing to see more search engines set upB.Google and Microsoft’s Bing should help find the searching resultsC.These companies shoul d mind their steps, or they will break d own soon.D.These companies need to catch up with the devel oping needs of Internet users 46.What can be the best title of this passage?A.Don’t make me “www.wait”.B.Search engines work faster.C.Traffic jams keep us waiting.D.The WWW becomes popular.Green is an important col or in nature. It is also the col or of most growing plants. Sometimes the word green means young, fresh and growing. Sometimes it describes something that is not yet ripe (成熟的) or finished. For exampl e, a greenhorn is someone who has no experience, who is new to a situation, in the fifteenth century, a greenhorn was a young cow or ox whose horns had not yet devel oped. A century or so later, a greenhorn was a sol dier who had not yet had any experience in battle. By the eighteenth century, a greenhorn had the meaning it has today—a person who is new in a job.Someone who has the ability-to grow plants well is said to have a green thumb .The expression comes from the early 1900s. A person with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes plants grow quickly and well. You might say that the woman next door has a green thumb if her gard en continues to grow long after your plants have died.The Green Revolution is the name given some years ago to the development of new kinds of rice and other grains. The new plants produced much larger crops. The Green Revolution was the result of hard work by agricultural scientists who had green thumbs.Green is also the col or used to describe the powerful emotion, jealousy(嫉妒). The green-eyed monster is not a frightening creature from outer space. It describes the unpleasant feeling a person has when someone has something he wants. A young man may suffer from the green-eyed monster if his girlfriend begins going out with someone else. Or, that green-eyed monster may affect your friend if you get a pay raise and she does not. 47.From the first paragraph, we can conclud e(得出结论) that ________.A.a greenhorn refers to (指的是) a horn of a young cow or oxB.a word has different meanings in the same century.C.the language devel ops with time going byD.a greenhorn means a soldier who hasn’t had any experience in battl e today 48.If a person has a green thumb, he or she probably ________.A.suffers from an illness in the thumb B.does well in growing plants C.has a thumb in green color D.has wond erful magic and energy 49.If Jane has a beautiful dress that Mary likes very much, ________A.Jane may suffer from the green-eyed monsterB.Mary is probably a girl with a green thumbC.Jane is probably call ed a greenhorn.D.Mary may suffer from the green-eyed monster50.Which of the foll owing statements is NOT true according to the passage? A.In about the 16th century, a greenhorn meant an experienced soldier. B.The Green Revolution may have some connection with green thumbs. C.The green-eyed monster was probably created by William Shakespeare. D.The green-eyed monster can be used to describe a person who is jeal ous.Science for KidsThis month's most popular books1.

I screamed for my parents. We looked everywhere but we couldn’t find anything. I tried again. I don’t know how many times my parents came to my bedroom that night, but we finally found that an old radio in my room suddenly began to work. The voices were from it.Years later, astronauts went into space for the first time. Then I looked out of my bedroom window almost every night, searching for UFOs.

The children play games, sing songs and talk to one another in the new language. Some experts(专家)say immersion programs are the most effective(有效的)way for young children to learn a language. But there can be a problem when children in the United States begin to l earn another language at such an early age. Not many elementary schools continue to teach a foreign language. Only seven of the fifty states require(要求)schools to teach a foreign language to stud ents between the ages of six and twelve. Language experts say it is easier for younger children to l earn a language. Still, American schools generally do not begin to teach foreign languages until secondary schools. By then, students are about thirteen years old.American schools face difficult choices about the cost of educational programs. The government has increased support for foreign language study in its education law call ed No Child Left Behind.At the college, the Modern Language Association says more students than ever are studying foreign languages and more languages are being studied now than in the past. Spanish is the most widely(广泛地)taught in American colleges and universities.

Now I will give you some advice.(1)Do not waste time in learning a list of English words. It is the hardest way to rememberEnglish words. How d o you l earn to speak Chinese? You did it by listening carefully to the people talking to each other. You can find radio programs, TV programs and records, and listen to them carefully. The best way to l earn all new words is through ear. As you listen to more and more dialogues, you will learn how English is pronounced in phrases and sentences. Of course, it is not enough to learn new words, you must learn how words are put together, and why some words in English are emphasized(重读).(2)Some people have found that they can learn the names of everyday objects such as box,bottl e, cup, d esk and so on, in the foll owing way. They write the names subjects, they say the words. Try this and see if this way works for you. If it does not, then go on to practice your dialogues.25.Who gave the advice?

You also know something about the blood which fl ows through it, and that there is a very important part which we call the brain.But the fl esh and the bones make up the largest part of the body, and there is a good deal to be learned about them. You know the general appearance of both flesh and bone from the parts of animals which you see in the butcher’s shop.Bone is hard, and of a white col or; indeed, it looks more like a piece of wood or stone than a part of a living animal. But bone is a real part of the living body, and it grows and is nourished (滋养)just as the body is. If a man breaks the bone of his arm or his l eg, it is firmly bound up, to prevent the broken parts from moving out of the proper places, and in time then bone grows together again and becomes quite strong.The bones are fastened together by various kinds of joints(关节). They form the framework of the body, and give it strength to retain its proper shape. This framework iscall ed the skeleton(骨架). Some animals, such as worms and slugs, have no skeleton; and others, such as shellfish, have a kind of hard covering or skeleton outsid e.The most important part of the skeleton is the backbone. It is so important that naturalists divide all animals into two classes,--- those which have a backbone and those which have none. All the higher animals, including man, have a backbone, or vertebral column as it is call ed. They are therefore called vertebrate (脊椎的)animals. The others are called invertebrate animals.30.What’s our body made of?A.FleshB.Flesh and bones.C.Flesh, bones and flood.D.Flesh, bones, flood and brain.31.Where can we see flesh and bones from the parts of animals?A.In the bookshop. B In the butchers’ shop.B.At home.C.In the shopping mall32.Why should the bones bound up firmly if they were broken?A.To make the bones strongB.To protect our arms and legsC.To fasten the joints.D.To prevent the broken parts from moving out of the proper places.33.From the passage, we know higher animals are called .A.backbone B.human beingsC.vertebrate animals D.skeletonDear Sir,Thirty years ago, I walked into your bakery(面包房) and asked for some l oaves(块)of bread to sell. At that time I was twelve years old. A young lady was working that day. She gave me five loaves and wished me good luck.I took the l oaves and went out to sell them. It took me all day, but I sol d them all. At theend of the day, I had some money. I was the happiest boy in the world as I walked home that evening.The next day, I went to a bicycle shop. I paid a deposit(定金)on a new bicycl e. And then I started my next job—as a newspaper deliver(递送)boy. Soon I could pay the rest of the money for the bicycle and the bike was mine. I was so proud!Today, I still work in the delivery business. I have a lot of trucks to send goods(货物)all over the country. I live in a beautiful house, but I d on’t ride a bicycle these days. I drive a large and nice car.I d o not know who that young lady was. But because she gave me the start, I have become a successful man.

It was about 15 miles away on the other side of the hill. There we felt sure that we would find a bed for the night . Darkness fell along the narrow road to the hill. As we climbed higher, it became colder and rain began to fall. It was difficult at times to see the road, so I asked my friend John to drive slowly.Now we traveled for about 20miles but we could not find the town. We were beginning to feel worried. Then the car stopped. We found we were out of petrol, so we decided to spend the nightin the car.After eating some bread, I tried to go to sleep at once, but John, a poor sleeper, got out of the car after a few minutes and went for a walk up the hill. Soon he came running back. From the top ofthe hill he had seen the lights of the town in the valley below. We at once tried to push car to thetop of the hill. In less than an hour we were in the town, and we found a hotel there easily.1.

Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is alittle bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings. "Cool" can be used to express feelings of interest in almost everything.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 favourite football player.We all maximize(扩大)the meaning of "cool". You can use it instead of many words, 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 student to write about the waterfall(瀑布) they had visited. On the student's paper was just the one sentence,"It's so cool."Maybe he thought it was the best way to show whathe 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 some credibility(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 arealso very cool.1.We know that the word "cool" has had ________.A. only one meaningB. no meaningC. many different meanings2.In the passage, the word "express" means "_______".A. seeB. showC. know3.If you are ________ something, you may say,"It's cool."A. interested inB. angry aboutC. worried about4.The writer takes an example to show he is ________ the way the word is used.A. pleased withB. strange toC. worried about5.In the passage, the writer suggests(暗示)that the word "cool"___________.A. can be used instead of many wordsB. usually means something interestingC. can make your life colorfulC B A A C(六)Last week, 169 Junior 1 students at No. 35 Middle School of Shenyang took their first no-teacher exam. After the teacher handed out the exam paper, he left the room and never came back. A student collected in the papers when the exam ended."That test was not only a test of knowledge, but also a test of moral (道德). We wanted to show students how important honesty is," said Cai Wenguo , the school's headmaster. The school saysno cheating (作弊)happened in the test. Next year, it wants 80% of its exams to be without teachers. But students have different ideas."I was happy and excited during the exam because my teachers trusted (信任) me," said Lang Yudan, a 13-year-old girl in Class 11."Schools must trust students a lot not to use invigilators (监考人). But I think it is too early. Somestudents will cheat if there are no invigilators. And the students will not be able to ask for helpwhen needed, 99 said Hua Sha."I don' t like having invigilators in exams. When they walk around the classroom, they make me nervous. I would get higher marks without them in the room because I would feel more relaxed,"Liu Qingxi said."I think it's very important to have invigilators in exams. Many students want to check their answers with each other after they have finished papers. And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens. Theymay make me nervous, but I still think we need them," Shangguan Yuan said.Not using invigilators may be a good idea. But before using it, schools must tell students the importance of honesty and try to find ways to solve something unusual in exams.( ) 1.

The meeting, the Sixth World Trade Organization (WTO) Ministerial Conference (世界贸易组织第六次部长级会议), will be held from December 13 to 18.Poor countries say that the WTO's international trade rules are not fair. The rules allow rich countries, like the US and those of the EU, to give money, or subsidies (津贴), to their farmers. With the subsidies, farmers are able to sell their crops at lower prices.As a result, world prices go down. Farmers in poor countries that don't have subsidies get less money and even lose their livelihoods.Since China joined the WTO in 2001, for example, lots of subsidized US cotton (棉花) has been sold in the country. Cotton prices fell from about 6 yuan to less than 3 yuan per kg in 2001 and 2002.Every year, rich countries support their farmers with more than US$300 billion. During the coming Hong Kong meeting, poorer nations will ask the rich nations to get rid of the subsidies. Zhang Xiangchen, a senior official from China's Ministry of Commerce (商务部), said China believes that rich countries should end their subsidies by 2010.1. What problem will the Hong Kong meeting try to solveA. Air pollution.B. International trade.C. Agricultural modernization.2. Who might the meeting benefit (有利于)A. Farmers in rich countries.B.
