AWhat would it be like to take a walk on the surface of Mars? If you could design the tallest building in the world, what would i t look like? Do you dream of being the next J.K.Rowling? This summer, you can experience all of these things, and more. Al l you need is an Internet connection and your imagination.A recent study by the Kaiser Family Foundation found that kid s spend an average of 1 hour and 29 minutes online each day . Many kids like to use that time to chat with friends, play gam es or check e-mails. But next time you get on the Web, try exploring the worl d instead. “With the Internet, you can go back 11,000 years in time, or go 11,000 kilometers across the planet,” said Russell , Web search expert of Google. “The whole scope of history and the world is open to you.”There is a lot of information to be found online. For example, i f your family is going on vacation somewhere, do a quick onlin e search on the area before you even get in the car. “What’s t he background of the place; what’s the history?” says Russell.“I like to tell my kids, ‘Whenever you have a question, whene ver you have a doubt, search it out.’”Ready to launch a virtual虚拟 journey of your own? Here are a few starting points to get y ou thinking and to help you on your way. You can invite your parents along for the ride, too. Always ask for permission befo re downloading programs and software into your computer. A nd, check with a parent or adult before visiting any new websit e.Navigate the world in 3-D with Google Earth. Begin in outer space and zoom into the streets of any city, from Hong Kong to . Or, visit ancient monu ments and watch the changing rainforests over time. With the moon in Google Earth tool, you can walk in Neil Armstrong’s f amous footsteps. Take a guided tour of the moon’s surface wi th Armstrong’s fellow shuttle mate astronaut Buzz Aldrin.1. According to Russell, the kids _________.A. spend too much time on the InternetB. should never chat and play games onlineC. can solve their problems through the InternetD. should study hard instead of chatting online2. From the passage we know that _________.A. we can find much information we need onlineB. Neil Armstrong traveled to the moon aloneC. the kids can download programs onto the computer freelyD. the kids can visit the new website freely without parents’ gu idance3. According to the passage, if you want to go to Tropical Rai nforests, you can _________.A. take the time shuttleB. go to the cinema to watc h 3-D filmsC. find a travel agency in GoogleD. use Google Earth4. The passage is mainly intended for _________.A. parentsB. kidsC. teachersD. adults5. In which section of a website can we probably read this pas sage?A. Culture.B. Health.C. Internet World.D. Touris m.BWe have all heard the old phrase “attitude is e verything”, and that phrase is certainly true. Your attitude can have a great im pact on your personal motivation, so it is important to keep a positive attitude no matter what challenges you face.As a matter of fact, keeping your attitude positive in the face o f difficulties is the motivation tip that most successful business owners will tell you. The most successful business owners, fr om Sam Walton to Bill Gates, have all been able to triumph in the face of unpleasant situations. It is those successful busin ess owners who tell you that attitude is everything. But how y ou deal with that knowledge will determine your level of succe ss.One of the most important ways to carry out “attitude is everyt hing” is to observe who you associate with and who you surro und yourself with. That is because when you surround yoursel f with negative people, their negative attitudes will infect you. So keeping your associates, colleagues, co-workers and friends as positive as possible is a great way to p ut the phrase “attitude is everything” into practice.Whatever you decide to do in life, your attitude will have a gre at effect on the success you achieve. Success, whether in the world of business or in your personal life, is directly related toyour attitude, and the attitude you bring to your work. A positi ve attitude will help you achieve greater success in your job, n o matter what your current level of employment.6. According to the text, Sam Walton __________.A. is more successful than Bill GatesB. has given readers some tips about successC. has never dealt with unpleasant situationsD. is one of the most successful businessmen7. One useful way of carrying out “attitude is everything” is___ _______.A. not letting others affect your decisionsB. not making friends with people who are unsuccessfulC. keeping the people who surround you positiveD. getting some advice from successful business owners8. What’s the best title for the text ?A. Attitude Determines Your SuccessB. Motivation Tips From Successful PeopleTo Deal With Unpleasant SituationsD. Making Friends With Positive PeopleCIt is hardly surprising that clothing manufacturers(生产商)follow certain uniform standards for various features(特征)of clothes. What seems strange , however, is that the standar d adopted for women is the opposite of the one for men. Take a look at the way your clothes button. Men's clothes tend to b utton from the right, and women's from the left. Considering m ost of the world's population—men and women—are right-handed, the men's standard would appear to make more sens e for women. So why do women's clothes button from the left ?History really seems to matter here. Button first appeared o nly on the clothes of the rich in the 17th century, when rich wo men were dressed by servants. For the mostly right-handed servants, having women's shirts button from the left w ould be easier. On the other hand, having men's shirts button from the right made sense, too. Most men dressed themselve s, and a sword drawn from the left with the right hand would b e less likely to get caught in the shirt.Today women are seldom dressed by servants, but buttoni ng from the left is still the standard for them. Is it interesting? Actually, a standard , once set, resists change. At a time whe n all women's shirts buttoned from the left, it would have been risky for any single manufacture to offer women's shirts that b uttoned the right. After all, women had grown so used to shirts which buttoned from the left and would have to develop newhabits and skills to switch. Besides from the right, since anyon e who noticed that would believe they were wearing men's shi rts.9. What is surprising about the standard of the clothing industr y?A. It has been followed by the industry for over 400 years.B. It is different for men's clothing and women's.C. It works better with men than with women.D. It fails to consider right-handed people.10. Women's clothes still button from the left today because__ _______.A. adopting men's style is improper for womenB. manufacturers should follow standardsC. modern women dress themselvesD. customs are hard to change11. The passage is mainly developed by___________ .A. analyzing causeB. making comparisonsC. examining differencesD. following the time orderDWho is your role model? Normally the answer to this question would be anyone around you who you find truly inspiring. It could also be someone like J. K. Rowling or Martin Luther King. Jr. , who have proven to be strong and intelligent people. However, in today’s world, stars are regarded as role models along with the heroes listed above, despite their intentions or actions. Teens attempt to imitate模仿 their actions for two major reasons. Firstly, to be fashionabl e and accepted by popular culture, and secondly because sta rs’ actions are so well documented记录 by the media that it seems to attract our attention and turns it to following stars’ lives. Much of the reports about stars is s hocking and exhibits bad morals or lifestyles that aren’t right f or teenagers. In addition, almost everything stars do is descri bed beyond truth to make a shocking story by taking it to the next level.However, teens must take responsibility for their actions. We can’t always blame stars for influencing us. Only you have co ntrol over yourself and only you choose to do something. Our bodies and actions are in the hands of no one else.Now, who ever said stars are role models? Whether they cho ose to be or not, stars set examples as soon as they step into the spotlight. With reporters following and recording every mo ve they make, it is impossible not to be watched and then be i mitated. These people influence teens whether or not they want to. Why should someone who doesn’t want to be setting an example set one? So,should we look up to them or to people who are true and good role models? It’s our responsibility as teens to know right fro m wrong, and it’s time for us to take responsibility for our actio ns. In doing so,we will lean toward偏向,倾向 those inspiring people that want to be setting an example, and follow in their steps to be like them.12. According to the first paragraph, _______ can usually be r ole models.A. political leadersB. wealthy writersC. people inspiring othersD. people with great intelligence13. What are the major reasons for the teens to imitate stars?A. Interest in stars’ life and expectation of getting rich.B. Motivation for being fashionable and inspiration from popul ar examples.C. Intentions to gain acceptance and encouragement from sta rs’ lifestyle.D. Desires to be stylish and great influence from the mass me dia.14. The author writes the passage mainly to advise the teena gers to _______.A.lose a control over their own bodies and actionsB. be responsible for their own choices and behaviorsC. follow fashionable stars’ steps to be more popularD. choose wrong role models according to different reports15. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.A. stars have the responsibility for teenagers’ actionsB. not all famous stars choose to influence teenagersC. teenagers choose those bad people as their role modelsD. stars set examples immediately they stepped into the spotli ght第二节根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.People often say you never get a second chance to make a fir st impression, and that's actually quite true. 16 After all, m aking a good first impression is all about making others feel g ood when spending time with them.The following tips will hel p you make a positive impression every time.● Dress appropriately17 That means dressing up or putting on nice, clean, situat ion-appropriate clothes for social situations.It isn't difficult and it doesn't have to cost you much, either.● Be aware of your body languageWords express very little of what you say.Body language can tell someone a lot about your mood and confidence level . 18 Eye contact is an easy way to make others feel comfo rtable, important and special.Nervous body language can m ake others uncomfortable and anxious.Try to be aware of yo ur body language when communicating with others.● Respect the opinions of othersNot everyone will have the same opinion with you, and friendl y disagreements can be a gateway toa great conversation.

ANews that Microsoft made a $44.6 billion to buy Yahoo resulted in heated discussion made by many Internet users, Here are some responses;Diane Burke of Weeks bury, KentuckyI think it would definitely be an interesting combination. Everyone recognize the names Yahoo and Microsoft, but everyone also says, “Did you Google it?” Such a catchphrase(时髦话)is going to be hard to beat.Shaun Carney of Laurelville, QhioI think the merger(合并)will provide more competitions for Google. I don’t think the merger will allow Microsoft to develop faster than Google, though. I believe the increased competition this merger brings will force Google to stay on top of its game by offering more fresh and original Internet tools and expanding on the tools it already offers.Toni Suarez of Hacienda Heights, CaliforniaI view the merger as a necessary clement in preventing a monopolization(垄断)Perhaps it would bring better high technology innovations to e-email and help in researching and developing a better Internet.Rick R.of Edgewater, FloridaIt sounds like a disaster to me. If this were to happen, I would stop using my Yahoo e-email account because I don’t like the felling of Microsoft s pying upon my business.

This long distance allowed us to only visit our grandparents once a year, either at Christmas or during summer vacation.Most of my classmates lived near their grandparents, and I would often hear stories of big families regularly spending time with one another, fishing at “grandpa’s” house or going over to “grandma’s”for her famous fried chicken. We were disappointed that we did not get to spend more time with our grandparents, but our love for them remained deep and strong.We always expected a road trip to Oklahoma. We would count the days, and when the day came, the entire family would pile into our car at four o’clock in the morning. Crossing the Mississippi River into Louisiana, the scenery changed. Crossing the Red River in Oklahoma, we were in a foreign world.Every trip to see my grandparents can’t be without bringing delight. We jumped out of the car in their driveway to be met with bear hugs. My grandparents wanted to know everything about their grandchildren, and we would sit for hours and tell story after story. Grandma had a meal planned, and you could guess she prepared her grandsons’ favorite foods. Of course the best part ofthe visit was that we were able to do whatever we wanted without punishment from our grandparents. Grandma and Grandpa always had presents for us, short trips planned and lovely surprises, such as the time we got to a local restaurant and ate the world’s largest hamburger.32.Why didn’t the family visit their grandparents often?A.
