Yet no one can learn everything from school.A teacher, no matter how much he knows, can not teach his students everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.It is always more important to know how to study by oneself than to learn some facts or a formula by heart. It is actually quiet easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula(公式) in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a maths problem. Greatscientist, such as Einstein, Newton and Galileo, didn’t get everything from school. But they were all so successful and invented so many things for men. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. They would ask many questions as they read and they did thousands of experiments.56. According to the passage, a good teacher should be one who is to_________.A. help his students to gain a good memory.B. train his students’ ability to learnC. teach his students everything he knowsD. have his students studying long hours57. If a student want to learn better, the most important thing for him to do is_______.A. to learn all the useful facts and formula by heartB. to do everything as his teacher have said in classC. to absorb (吸收) as much knowledge from his teacher as possibleD. to think more while he is studying58. The main reason for the success of the great scientists is that________.A. the teachers who had taught them were all experienced.B. they used to work and study without a moment’s rest.C. they had received more schooling than other peopleD. they know how to study and worked hard59. What’s the good advice the writer gives us?A. We can learn better without teachersB. We should do more asking and thinking while studyingC. We should pay enough attention to classroomD. Book knowledge is of little useBHarry is eighteen now. He studies in a middle school. His parents like him very much and hope he can become a famous man. So they often tell him to study hard and they do all for him. They call him at six in the morning. After breakfast his father takes him to school in a car and in the afternoon, as soon as the young man comes back, the supper is ready. Of course, he never washes his clothes or goes to buy something in the shops.Once Harry’s father was sent to London on business.He would stay there for half a year. Before leaving, he told his wife to take good care of their son. The woman had to get up earlier and did all that her husband did before. And two months later she was so tired that she was ill in bed. Now the young man got into trouble. He couldn’t do any housework. He had to do as his mother told him. Even he didn’t know where to get on the bus!Yesterday Harry’s mother found his shoes were worn out and told him to buy a new pair in the shop. But he didn’t know how to choose. The woman had a sigh(叹息) and gave him a shoe pattern(鞋样) and told him to buy a pair of shoes himself. It’s Saturday today and Harry doesn’t go to school. With a policema n’s help, he found a shop. The shopkeeper was friendly to him. The man brought a lot of shoes and asked him to choose. When he was trying on a pair, suddenly he remembered something and took them off. The man was surprised and asked, “What’s the matter, yo ung man?”“I’m sorry. I’ve left the shoe pattern at home!”60. _______ always does some housework in the morning.A. Harry’s fatherB. Harry’s motherC. HarryD. Nobody61. Harry’s parents do all instead of him because _______.A. he’s too youngB. he has poor healthC. he’s busy with his studiesD. they hope he spends all time on studies62. When the man was in London, _______.A. Harry had to stay at homeB. Harry couldn’t find the bus stopC. Harry fell behind in his classD. Harry wouldn’t go to school63. We can infer from the passage that _______.A. Harry wanted his mother to buy shoes for himB. Harry didn’t believe himselfC. Harry wouldn’t listen to his motherD. Harry was strong enough to buy shoes for himselfCMarch, April and May are months full of festivals and events all over the world. Here are some wonderful festivals around the world that happen in spring.SongKran--ThailandDates: 13th-15th, AprilIn Thailand, it’s time to cel ebrate the coming monsoon season, which will bring the rain many people have been looking forward to. They celebrate it with a festival called Songkran，when people head out to the streets with water guns to spray(喷，洒）everyone who walks past. If you walk on the streets where the festival is celebrated, prepare to get soaked!Naghol--VanuatuDates: Every Saturday from April to MayEvery year, villagers come together to celebrate the harvest of yams, an important part in the people’s diet in Vanuatu. The festival is most famous for its “land diving ceremony”. During the ceremony men and boys dive to the ground from high wooden towers with only two thin vines(藤条) attached(附于)to their ankles(脚踝）. The divers’ heads have to lightly touch the ground when they jump---something very dangerous if the vines are not measured（测量）properly.Cherry Blossom Viewing ---JapanDates: The cherry blossom season is different from year to year depending on the weather forecast.The cherry blossom season has huge importance to the people of Japan, who celebrate the days when the flowers finally blossom. Only a few days later, the petals(花瓣）fall to the ground, like pink snowflakes. This is one of the most beautiful things to see. In Japan, almost everyone has picnics in the parks to view the flowers.Sinhalese New Year--Sri LankaDates: 13th or 14th, AprilJust like in many other countries in South an South East Asia, this is the time when the Sinhalese celebrate the traditional New Year, an ancient celebration which marks the end of the harvest season and is one of two times of the year when the sun is straight above Sri Lanka. There are a lot of delicious foods during the celebration.64. What does the underlined word “soaked” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A.tiredB. wetC. crazyD. interested65. The writer thinks that the “land diving ceremony” can be dangerous for the divers because ___________.A. the divers may fall onto the ground if the thin vines breakB.the divers may bump into （撞在…上）the wooden tower on the way downC.the divers’ ankles may get injured if the vines are tied too tightlyD.the divers may injure their heads if the vines aren’t measured properly66. We can learn from the passage that__________________.A. the Cherry Blossom Celebration usually lasts a long time in JapanB. the Cherry Blossom Celebration is the most important festival in JapanC. the time for the Cherry Blossom Celebration in Japan can be different yearlyD. people usually stay at home for celebration during the cherry blossom seasonDIn the rush to get to school, you drop a piece of toast on the floor. Do you throw it away or decide it’ s still OK to eat? If you’re like most people, you eat it. M aybe you follow the “5-second rul e”, which claims foods are safe to eat if you pick them up within 5 seconds after dropping them. But you might want to think again. Scientists now say that 5 seconds is all it takes for foods to become polluted with enough bacteria（细菌）to make you sick.Bacteria can cause many kinds of illnesses. Some kinds of bacteria can grow on food. If you eat foods on which these bacteria are growing, you can become sick.One of these food-borne bacteria is Salmonella. It makes 1.4 million people sick every year. Salmonella is often found in raw eggs and chicken. Cooking kills these bacteria, which is why it is so important to cook eggs, chicken, and other foods thoroughly.But how long does it take these bacteria to pollute food? A team of scientists in South Carolina did an experiment. First, they placed an amount of Salmonella on three surfaces; wood, tile (瓦片), and carpet. They placed a piece of bread and a piece of bologna（大腊肠）on each surface for 5,30, or 60 seconds. After just 5 seconds, both the bread and the bologna picked up enough bacteria to make you sick.So forget the 5-second rule. If your toast drops on the floor, throw it away and get another piece of clean toast. This time, be careful not to drop it!七选五：根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

ASharon, Aged 22The most important thing to keep in mind when going into high school is to be yourself. Besides, I don't know what your middle school was like, but high school teachers will not care about things such as how much homework you already have in one night. It's best to just learn to deal with things and manage your time wisely so you can achieve everything you need to.Frank, Aged 21I think almost every kid feels both nervous and excited before their first day. You will probably love it. I know I did. You should join somesports or activities that will make your high school experience more enjoyable. Good luck!Eddie, Aged 20When I started high school I was really nervous too, especially since I had been homeschooled all through middle school and didn't really know anyone. I suppose the best advice would be to just relax. The first couple of days can be a little bit hard, but things will become easier before you know it.David, Aged 19I'm not going to lie. The first day is kind of frightening (令人恐惧的). But you'll get used to it. Don't be afraid of anyone; upperclassmen will pick on you more if you let them know you're afraid. Just take it easy. Making some friends and staying with them will greatly help you get used to high school quickly. After the first week it's really not bad at all. Don't worry.21. What can we infer from Sharon about high school?A. Teachers are quite strict.B. Students often stay up at night.C. Teachers provide little care for students.D. Students should make good use of their time.22. How did Eddie feel on his first day of high school?A. Excited.B. Bored.C. Worried.D. Relaxed.23. Who mentions the importance of friends?A. Frank.B. David.C. Sharon.D. Eddie.BWhen high school student Katie Shipley was born with a serious brain disease, doctors said she wouldn't live to go to school.Now, Katie is not only about to graduate from Southridge High School in Oregon, but she was also named the school's prom (高中毕业舞会) queen.Knowing Katie's wishes for prom queen, her friend Courtney Travis began reaching out to find her the prom king she needed to make her aqueen. Courtney found Michael Parks, who also thought it was a great idea.“I really got to know Shipley,” said Michael. “When you take th e time to get to know other people, it really gives you a great chance to live for more than yourself.”Courtney took a picture of the couple together and put it on her Twitter, explaining their plans for the prom. “It became very popular in the sch ool,” she said.Their efforts paid off, and Katie was very excited to be named prom queen.On the day of the prom, Katie wore a very beautiful dress. Her grandmother, Joan Fraley, who also went to the prom, said the night will stay with her always.“I was standing there and the children were shouting her name,” she said. “They called her name as the new prom queen — I started crying.I'm greatly thankful to the students of Southridge High School.”Katie repeated that feeling.“I just want to say thank you to my friends for all they did for me. I love you all.”Todd Corsetti, the principal (校长) at Southridge High School said that seeing Katie as prom queen and the energy and help of his students is one of his “proudest moments.”“I think teenagers have great hearts and are really looking to make the world a better place,” Todd said. “As we finish our school year, it's a great legacy (遗产) to leave the other classes who come after them.”24. When Katie was born, she _____.A. nearly died in hospitalB. wasn't expected to live longC. wasn't supposed to finish high schoolD. caught a disease caused by doctors' mistakes25.

Maybe one of these dads will make you remember your own dad!The male giant water bug (雄性负子蝽) doesn't seem to mind a heavy load (负荷物) on his back for his kids. The female puts about 100 to 150 eggs on the back of the male, and then she leaves. Once the female is gone, the male has to look after the eggs. It usually takes one to two weeks for the eggs to hatch (孵化). The father giant water bug jumps around to make sure the growing eggs get enough air and water. All this time he can't fly because of the weight of the eggs growing rapidly on his back.Now let's turn to the male stickleback fish. When the mother leaves after laying her eggs, the father tends his young. If the young fish go toofar away, their father helps with their safe return by carrying them back in his mouth. The male stickleback looks after all his young — as many as 100 — until they can live on their own.A similar example can be found in emperor penguins (帝企鹅) living in cold areas. The male emperor penguin goes without food while looking after his egg until it hatches. For about 62 to 67 days, the egg stays on top of the father's feet, in very cold temperatures that drop down to -39°C. As a result, the father may lose nearly 50 percent of his body weight while waiting for his baby penguin to be born!28. What do we know about the giant water bug?A. It is unable to fly.B. The eggs grow on the father's back.C. The male must keep still to hatch the eggs.D. The female looks after her eggs together with the male.29.

Mr. Moms in the WildB. Animals Do Have FeelingsC. Nature Loves Us like Our DadD. Childbirth in the Animal KingdomDTime: 7:00 A.M. Emily Stupi dives into (跳进) the pool. Cold water hits her, and it's hard to catch her breath. Pulling her arms through the water, Emily begins her first of eight laps (圈). She wants to complete the triathlon (铁人三项).Emily shakes with cold as she gets out of the pool. Along with three hundred other children and adults, she heads into the one-mile run, followed by a four-and-a-half-mile bike ride.The triathlon is being held in Glendale, Arizona, and the temperature is freezing on the late-October morning. But seeing her father's warm smile makes Emily forget about the cold.Emily feels lucky to have her father here today. Three years ago, doctors discovered that he had skin cancer. His treatments made him feel tired and sick, but he believed he was going to get better. Emily says, “Courage is something that all people have inside, and they use it to make the world a brave and happy place. My dad showed great courage when he got cancer.”Emily asked a lot of questions about her father's illness. Her mom says, “We had a family discussion and gave her all the facts. We talked about what cancer is and how money is raised for aid (援助) and research.”Emily made a promise to herself and to her family that she would compete in the triathlon to raise money to help cancer patients. She trained hard for three months, swimming, running and biking several times a week. She then sent out 150 letters asking for donations (捐赠). Her dad matched the money, and Emily gave $7,000 to the American Cancer Society.Emily says she was nervous on the day of the race. “My stomach felt weak, and the water was cold.” But Emily completed the ra ce and lived up to her promise to help fight cancer.32.

AMiddle School Laboratory(试验室) Safety RulesScience is about discovering and exploring the natural world．Explorations （探究）can occur （发生）in the classroom，laboratory or field． As part of your science lessons， you will take part in many activities using many different materials， equipment and chemicals， which can be dangerous if not used correctly． As a result， you may be faced with biological（生物学的），chemical or physical hazards．Safety is THE MOST IMPORTANT thing． The following safety rules have been developed for the protection and safety of everyone．★Behave yourself in a responsible way at all times． Risky （危急的）behavior such as throwing things and doing experiments without teachers' instructions （指令） is not allowed．★Eating， drinking， chewing gum（口香糖），wearing make﹣up（化妆品），touching contact lenses（隐形眼镜） or other unsafe activities are not allowed．★Do not enter or work in the laboratory unless an instructor（老师） is present．★Never enter areas where chemicals are kept．★Taking any chemicals or equipment away from the classroom or laboratory is not allowed．The safety rules must be followed at all times．Review these rules with your teacher and parents， then sign and get the signature（签名）of a parent． Thesignature shows that you understand the lab can be dangerous，and that you have read the rules and agree to follow them at all times． Signatures are needed before you can go on with any lab or science classroom activity．（1）What does the underlined word "hazards" probably mean in Paragraph 1？A． Illnesses．B． Examinations．C． Dangers．D． Experiments．（2）Which of the following might be allowed in the lab？A． Drinking soda．B． Wearing glasses．C． Having breakfast．D． Taking away chemicals．（3）What should students do after reading the rules？A． Sign to agree to the rules．B． Get a teacher's signature．C． Take a test on safety rules．D． Go on with lab activities．BMost heroes are not super． They don't appear in comic books（漫画书）， on television，or in movies． They just do what they believe needs to be done to make their worlda better place． Bike Batman is one of them．Bike Batman is a 30﹣year﹣old married engineer who lives in Seattle，Washington． He's a cyclist who also buys and sells bikes as a hobby．About three years ago， he was looking for a bike for his wife． He found one on Craigslist， a website where people list things they want to sell． As he often does， he also looked on Bike Index， a popular website that allows users to register （登记）their bikes and post reports when they're stolen． The bike，which he was considering purchasing（购买）， clearly matched the one reported stolen on Bike Index．Then he called the person who claimed（声称） to be the bike's owner and arranged （支配）to meet him一supposedly （可能）to complete the sale． When the two men met， Bike Batman told the thief， "You've got two choices． You can wait until a police officer gets here， or you can just get out of here．" You can imagine what the thief did．After that first success，Bike Batman developed a safer routine（常规）．When he sees questionable（可疑的） bike ads on Craigslist， he cross﹣refers（相互参照） the images with bikes reported on Bike Index．Once he confirms（证明）the bike with the owner，he will arrange（支配） a meet﹣up with the thief and will call the Settle police department so that officers can participate （参与）in the action． In more than half of the 22 cases in which he has got back and returned bikes， the thieves have been arrested（逮捕）．In one case， Bike Batman even helped a family recover （重新获得）a wide range of prized possessions （财产） that suspects（嫌疑犯） had stolen during a home burglary（入室盗窃）．His nickname（外号） came from a discussion with a police officer who suggested he be called "Robin Hood"．Since he wasn't exactly stealing from the rich and giving to the poor， "Batman" seemed a better fit．The idea of a superhero punishing criminals（罪犯） feels pretty silly to him， but the main reason he continues his work is to keep up Seattle's reputation （名声）as a friendly city．（1）Who is Bike Batman？A． He is a superhero．B． He is a website manager．C． He is a Seattle citizen（市民）．D． He is a police officer．（2）When Bike Batman discovers a questionable bike，he will first ．A． contact the owner of the stolen bikeB． look up the bike's informationC． call the police departmentD． arrange to meet the thief（3）Why does Bike Batman help find the lost bikes？A． To become famous．B． To help poor people．C． To punish bike thieves．D． To build a friendly city．（4）What can we learn from the passage？A． Bike Batman felt grateful to see the thieves arrested（逮捕）．B． Bike Batman began his good deeds by accident．C． The police failed to perform their duties．D． The thieves refused to return the bikes．CIf your child has mobile Internet access，it will be more difficult to monitor （监督）and control his or her Internet use. Kids are turning to the Internet for everything from hanging out with friends to shopping，which makes it harder for parents to keep track of their online activities. Fortunately，there are many choices for controlling what your kids see on their computers，laptops，and mobile devices（设备）.Content blockers（内容拦截器） and filters （过滤器）are great tools to use for younger kids. They allow you more control over where they go and what they do online. A content（内容） blocker can block some unhealthy websites or limita child's search to the kind of sites. A content filter can scan sites and pictures and block those sites that contain certain words，key phrases，or contents.Consider tracking （追踪）software（软件） for older teenagers. This software enables you to see which sites your children have visited，tracking their path online. This tool gives young people more freedom to explore the Internet，but it also allows you to check that they are using the Internet responsibly. Let your teenagers know that you trust them，but that you will be regularly checking that they are visiting appropriate （适当的）sites online.Even if you use content blockers，filters，and trackers，you know that a lot of kids figure out （想出）ways to get around these，so it's important to remain alert（警惕的）.Remember that not all adult sites can be identified（识别） by blocker，filter，or tracker software. That's why it's important to talk to your kids about what to do when something inappropriate or scary（可怕的） comes up. Nothing can replace involvement and supervision（监督）by adults. Keep monitoring how your kids use the Internet on a regular basis without getting into the role of the Internet traffic police.（1）What is the passage mainly about？A．More and more kids have mobile Internet access.B．Some choices for monitoring and controlling kids' Internet use.C．It is difficult to monitor and control kids' Internet use.D．Kids are turning to the Internet for everything.（2）How should parents monitor and control younger kids' Internet use？A．With tracking software.B．With tracking software and content blockers and filters.C．With content blockers and filters.D．With filters and trackers.（3）The third paragraph is about .A．how to monitor and control older teenagers' Internet useB．how to monitor and control younger kids' Internet useC．tracking softwareD．content blockers and filters（4）Parents should remain alert when they monitor kids' Internet usebecause .A．content blockers，filters，and trackers are uselessB．lots of kids figure out ways to get around content blockers，filters，and trackersC．not all adult sites can be identified by blocker，filter，or tracker softwareD．nothing can replace involvement and supervision by adultsDWe are what we eat．That is an old expression，but one worth knowing．A recent look at diets around the world shows that people who eat healthy food﹣and not too much of it﹣live longer．But which areas of the world have the best diets？Researchers found that foods in some of the healthiest diets﹣ Mediterranean diet，New Nordic diet，Japanese diet and French diet﹣may be very different，but they are all heavy on local and seasonal foods，which include more vegetables and seafood and less red meat．Mediterranean diet contains lots of fruits，vegetables，whole grains（谷物），nuts （坚果）and olive oil．The diet has proper amounts of fish and poultry （家禽肉）．Red meat and foods high in sugar and salt are not big parts of this diet．New Nordic diet has whole grains like oats and rye，vegetables such as carrots，broccoli and eggs，seafood，fruits，oil，low﹣fat milk and cheese．Sugary desserts are not common in this diet．Japanese people are some of the longest living people on the planet，with women up to 87 years old and men up to 80．The Japanese diet is the reason for such lengths of life．The diet has many foods that are low in calories（卡路里） and high in nutrients（养分物）．Japanese people eat a lot of seaweed，tofu，vegetables and fish．The tradition there is to stop eating when your stomach feels 80 percent full．However，French people eat fatty foods but do not get fat．And they live a long time．This phenomenon is called the "French Paradox"．The reason why the French eat fatty foods without getting fat may be simple．They eat less．Serving sizes in French restaurants and of products sold in stores are smaller than those in most countries．And generally speaking，most French people do not snack（吃点心）．This means they do not eat food between meals．（1）What do we know about the healthiest diets around the world？A．They contain（包含） abundant （丰富的）calories．B．They tend（倾向） to be expensive．C．They share certain similarities．D．They reflect（反映） popular tastes．（2）What is considered as a harmful eating habit in Japanese tradition？A．Going low in calories．B．Eating to the fullest．C．Having much seafood．D．Picking many foods．（3）How does the author（作者） develop the central idea in the last 4 paragraphs？A．By building connections（联系）．B．By exploring reasons．C．By listing examples．D．By analyzing（分析） figures（数字）．（4）Which can be the most suitable title for the text？A．What is the healthiest diet on earth？B．How does the old expression serve？C．Why is a healthy diet so important？D．Where can we feed ourselves well？其次节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）依据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

河南省信阳市第一高级中学20212021高一英语上学期第一次月考试题说明：本试卷不含听力，共120分，考试时间：100分钟第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

AThis is not a diet. It’s a simple way to lose weight. You don’t have to give up the food you love or join a gym. You just follow some habits thin people have. Keep them, and you’ll become thin.◆Wakeup When you wake up in the morning, sit up slowly without using your hands. With legs straight out, lean forward until you feel sore in your back. It will use up 10 calories.◆Start with soup Order a clear soup, and have it before the main food. In this way, you’ll feel fuller, so you’ll eat less when the main food comes.◆An apple or more a day Apples are full of fiber(纤维) and water, so your stomach will want less. Studies show that people who eat at least three apples or pears a day may lose weight.◆Talk it up Every time you use the cell phone, stand up and walk around. Heavy people sit on average two and a half hours more each day than thin people. This skill is very important as standing up and walking around will burn up 50 or more calories. Use these skills, and you will have a big weight loss.21、The text is to encourage you to ______.A．go on a diet B．give up your favorite foodsC．join a gym D．follow some habits of thin people22、Which of the following ways is a good choice to become thin?A．Sit up quickly in the morning. B．Have soup before the main food.C．Eat rice instead of apples. D．Sit down when using a cell phone.23、How many skills are there in the text for people to lose weight?A．Two. B．Three. C．Four. D．Five.24、The text is most likely to be read ______.A．in a magazine B．in a dictionary C．in a storybook D.on a mapBMaking friends is a skill like many other skills. It improves with practice. If you want to meet people and make friends，you must be willing to take some actions. You must first go where there are people. You won’t make friends staying home alone.Join a club or a group. Talking with those who like the same things as you do is much easier. Or join someone in some activities.Many people are nervous when talking to new people. After all meeting strangers means facing the unknown. And it’s human nature to feel a bit uncomfortabl e about the unknown. Most of our fears about dealing with new people come from doubts about ourselves. We imagine other people are judging us or finding us too tall or too short，too this or too that. But don’t forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try to accept yourself as you are and try to put the other person at ease. You’ll both feel more comfortable.Try to act self­confidently even if you don’t feel that way. When you enter a room full of strangers，such as a new classroom，walk tall and straight，look directly at other people and smile.If you see someone you’d like to speak to，say something. Don’t wait for the other person to start a conversation.Just meeting someone new does not mean that you will make friends with that person—friendship is based on mutual liking and “give and take”. It takes time and effort to develop.25．The best title of the text may be________.A．Friendship B．How to Make FriendsC．Meeting New People D．Facing the Unknown26．You can’t make friends if yo u________.A．take some actions B．go to where there are people C．avoid meeting people D．won’t start a conversation 27．Friendship is based on________.A．self­confidenceB．meeting more unknown peopleC．more talking and smiling to peopleD．taking from and giving to people28．Which of the following statements is NOT true?A．Making friends needs practising.B．Making friends needs to be more active in starting a conversation.C．When meeting someone，make him feel nice and starting a conversation.D．Before making friends with someone，judge if he’s too this or too that.CIn the book The Best Little Girl in the World, Kessa has a serious eating disorder (进食障碍) called anorexia nervosa. But she is not alone. Many people have this eating disorder.In the beginning of her story, Kessa is a normal 15yearold. She is good at many things, especially dancing. She has danced for many years and loves it. One day her dance teacher tells her to continue eating right, but maybe lose a few pounds. Once Kessa hears this, she takes things too far. Instead of cutting down on snacks and junk food, she decides not to eat at all. She does not eat breakfast, lunch, or dinner. She begins losing weight and becomes slimmer (更加苗条的) and slimmer. But she loses weight to a point where she is unhealthy.As her poor eating habits continue, her parents start getting as much help as possible to cure (治疗) their beautiful daughter. But it is just as hard for Kessa’s parents to deal with her disorder as it is for her. Everyday she exercises to lose more pounds and plans what and when she will eat. Her parents try everything, but Kessa decides not to have any fat on her body.Kessa’s doctor and parents finally take her to the hospital. She is now so thin that she can hardly walk. There, she is given good care.In the rest of the book, Kessa goes through a lot of trouble in order to cure her eating disorder. This book, I think, can help to prevent people from doing this to themselves. It shows the trouble that people go through just to be slimmer, and all the terrible things they must experience to be cured. It is a book I think every teenager should read.29. What does Kessa do to lose weight?A. She stops eating.B. She eats less junk food.C. She has three small meals a day.D. She dances many more hours a day.30. What do we know about Kessa’s eating disorder?A. It is caused by her dance teacher.B. It’s too serious to be cured.C. It makes her suffer a lot.D. It’s an unusual illness.31. The book mentioned in the text is mainly about _____.A. how to cure eating disordersB. the importance of eating rightC. a girl’s fight against an eating problemD. why so many people have eating disordersDKids are natural scientists. That may be why they ask so many questions.Younger kids take up science and math with amazing enthusiasm，yet as they get older they often lose their excitement. Children look on scientific exploration as play，but as they get older they start to connect it with big heavy books，long worksheets and a lot of really confusing words.What a tragedy！We had their attention，they were listening，they were participating，they were learning and then we lost it to boredom.We need our kids to play more. More play brings up basic scientific concepts(概念)．Being familiar with basic scientific concepts brings about exploration which leads to research. Once they are researching，they are completely into the learning.My boys built a small 9­hole golf course next to our driveway one day. It was a great product of science. They dug out the holes and channels to guide the golf ball. They played with architecture(建筑学)with a series of pipes they had found in the garage. They tested speed and momentum(动量)by creating one of the holes across the driveway. They experienced biology when deciding which front yard plants couldbe used as a part of the course and which needed to be pulled up.If I had sent them out to the yard to build a 9­hole golf course，it would have never happened. It was because it was their idea that it worked. I try to tell them some of the concepts after the fact. When they ask about something，I try to relate it back to something they have built，experienced，or felt. I try to give them a vocabulary around what they already know.An afternoon can change the way kids look at the world. Not bad for a day of play.32. What can we learn about kids' attitudes towards science from the first three paragraphs?A. Kids think they are born to work as scientists.B. Younger kids begin to learn science on purpose.C. Older kids often link science with boring things.D. Children's taking an interest in science is a tragedy.33.By building the small golf course，the writer's boys learnt about all of the following things EXCEPT________.A. speedB. momentumC. biologyD. agriculture34.If the writer had forced the boys to build a small golf course，they might have _______.A. asked her some related scientific conceptsB. made a better golf course than the one they had builtC. asked their friends to help them with the workD. got bored and refused to follow the writer's directions35. In which part of a newspaper is the article probably included?A．Architecture B. Education C．Health D. Sports.第二节七选五(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。

I never saw my dad drinking or taking a night out. All he did after work was taking care of his family.I grew up and left home for college and since then, my dad had been calling me every Sunday morning. And when I bought a house several years later, my dad painted it by himself in the fierce summer heat. All he asked was to talk to him, but I was to busy in those days.Four years ago, my dad visited me. He spent many hours putting together a swing for my daughter. He asked me to have a talk with him, but I had to prepare for a trip that weekend.One Sunday morning we had a telephone talk as usual. I noticed that my dad had forgotten some things that we discussed lately. I was in a hurry, so our conversation was short. Several hours later that day I received a call. My father was in the hospital. Immediately I bought a plane ticket and on my way I was thinking about all the occasions I missed to have a talk with my dad. By the time I arrived at the hospital, my father had passed away. Now it was he who did not have time for a conversation with me.

Bose has a large circle of friends, and there’s one who you may have heard of: President Obama. He has twice publicly recognized her achievements in cancer research and spoken with her in the Oval Office.If that isn’t enough, Bose recently gave a TED Talk about her work with the cancer drug Cisplatin, which also won her first prize at the Google Science Fair and recognition as one of Glamour magazine’s Young Amazing Women of the Year.After watching her grandfather struggle with liver cancer, Bose was determined to help out in any way she could. As a high school student though, her scientific choices were limited. She reached out to various hospitals and research centers, but doctors turned down her requests because they felt she was too inexperienced medically.Only the North Texas Science Health Center respected her determination and chose to guide her. The results were amazing.Bose chose to study a protein (蛋白质) and its reaction with the cancer drug Cisplatin. She noticed that when she prevented this protein from growing, Cisplatin was allowed to begin destroying cancer cells once again.“My project not only contributes to the understanding of the relationship between the protein and Cisplatin, but also suggests a newer, more effective treatment for patients who resist Cisplatin,” Bose said.Bose’s achievements aren’t limited to the lab, though. She was also c aptain of her swim team and editor-in-chief of her school paper.Bose is currently getting practical experience at the National Institute of Health and she’ll be attending Harvard in the fall. She plans to study molecular biology and go to medical school. Eventually, she would like to be a doctor.28.

Bose’s grandfather asked her to do cancer research31. The passage is mainly about ________.A. a research on cancer drugsB. a new effective cancer treatmentC. a doctor who has a promising futureD. a girl who did research on cancer treatmentDIn 1947 a group of famous people from the art world headed by an Austrian conductordecided to hold an international festival of music, dance and theatre in Edinburgh. The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.It quickly attracted famous names such as Alec Guinness, Richard Burton, Dame Margot Fonteyn and Marlene Dietrich as well as the big symphony orchestras(交响乐团). It became a fixed event every August and now attracts 400,000 people yearly.At the same time, the “Fringe” appeared as a challenge to the official festival. Eight theatre groups turned up uninvited in 1947, in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform, and they did so in a public house disused for years.Soon, groups of students firstly from Edinburgh University, and later from the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge, Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to the Scottish capital each summer to perform theatre by little-known writers of plays in small church halls to the people of Edinburgh.Today the “Fringe”, once less recognized, has far outgrown the festival with around 1,500 performances of theatre, music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts. And yet as early as 1959, with only 19 theatre groups performing, some said it was getting too big.A paid administrator(管理人员) was first employed only in 1971, and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself. In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1,695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries. More than 1.25 million tickets were sold.32. What was the purpose of Edinburgh Festival at the beginning?A. To honor heroes of World War II.B. To introduce young theatre groups.C. To attract great artists from Europe.D.

They wanted to take part in the festival.D. They owned a public house there.34. Who joined the “Fringe” after it appeared?A. University studentsB. Artists from around the worldC. Performers of music and danceD. Popular writers35. We may learn from the text that Edinburgh Festival .A. has gone beyond an art festivalB. gives shows all year roundC. keeps growing rapidlyD. has become a non-official event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，选项中有两项为多余选项。

It was obvious that the duck missed his family very much upon his arrival. Left to himself, he would at once turn his head homeward. I tried to shut him together with other ducks for several days, but with no use at all. There seemed to be but one thought in the mind of him, and that was home.So I decided to let him out, but I kept about fifty yards behind him. I followed, thinking he would soon lose his way and came back. But he seemed to have an exact map of the country in his mind. Soon he met a dog. He paused and looked at the animal for a moment, and then turned to the right along a road which led to a railroad station. He had now gone about half the distance, and was getting tired. A little pool of water by the roadside caught his eyes. Into it he bathed, drank, and rested for a few moments, and then started homeward again. For a while, he realized that he had got into the wrong direction, and turned his face southward again. Finally we came in sight of the home path, which led up to the farmhouse.It was now nearly night and I had no time to watch the experiment further. But as he neared the path he seemed suddenly to see some familiar things, and rushed at the top of his speed. I followed close behind. Into the house yard he rushed with uplifted wings as if he was eagerly telling his partners the story of his adventures.56. What does the author think about the duck?A. Interesting and careful.B. Curious and enthusiastic(热情的).C. Intelligent（聪明的）and determined（意志坚定的）.D. Brave and experienced.57. As soon as the duck arrived at a new place, he seemed ________ .A.gladB.nervouC.tiredD. homesick58.

What’s the purpose of the writer’s writing the text?A. To share us a duck’s interesting trip.B. To present his opinions about a duck’s remarkable （非凡的）experience.C.

Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which. ”Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what’s on their minds. “In fact, parents are first on the list. ” said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years. ”Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last. ”Parents who know what’s going on in their teenagers’ lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental break, for children also need freedom, though young.

This makes our body suffer and we will catch other diseases. It is the fitness level of our body that helps us fight these diseases.Health and fitness are interrelated to each other. We need to be fit to have a healthy body.Similarly, if we are healthy we shall naturally be attracted towards maintaining the fitness of our body. Health is the state of our body at a given time. We may not have any disease but still have a weak body, which is ready to be targeted by viruses. For instance, we may have a tendency to catch a cold easily. This does not definitely mean that we are notconditions we live in.It is important for everyone to devote some time to health and fitness. There are some activities which everyone should do in our life. For instance we must exercise daily regardless of our age and working style. There are different levels of exercises for different age groups and we must do them according to our own health and age.Additionally, it is important to relax our body. We should have at least six to eight hours of sleep every day. It helps in improving our immune(免疫) system and protects us against diseases. It also helps in keeping us calm and relaxes our mind. This, in turn, gives us new goals of health and fitness.8、According to the passage, what will be the result of ignoring our health?A. Our body will fight disease more easily.B.

Health and fitness help people live a good life.11、What is the best title for the passage?A. New goals of health and fitnessB. Ways to fight discaseC. Work out on a daily basisD. Health and fitnessSeveral years ago, Jeremy Clarkson, presenter of the famous BBC television programme Top Gear’, discovered that one of his guests was half German and half Irish. Immediately, he said: “That’s quite a strange combination. It’s like, this must be done absolutely perfectly... tomorrow”.This is a joke about the stereotype (刻板印象) that Germans are efficient and Irish are lazy. Many people could understandably be offended by these kinds of assertions (断言). We do not know every Irish person, so how can we then conclude that every Irish person is lazy?I recently read on a website that Irish business people were describ ed as being ‘generally rather casual’ and ‘more outwardly friendly than many European countries’. German business people, on the other hand, are considered to be very direct and according to the website, they do not need a personal relationship in order to do business. Once you hear advice like this, it becomes easier to understand where jokes like the one in the first paragraph come from.So why do some people disagree with the kind of stereotypes as seen in Clarkson’s joke, but agree when it comes to generalizations (概括)? What is the difference between the two?By definition, a stereotype is a widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a particular type of person or thing. A cultural characteristic, on the other hand, is a pattern of behaviour that is typical of a certain group.So what does this really mean? Stereotypes are simply overstated assumptions about groups of people. Imagine if a tourist visited a small town in Switzerland and saw a number of locals playing the alphorn instrument, and then claimed that Swiss people can play the alphorn. This would be a stereotype! This is an overstated image of the Swiss which is based on one tourist’s experience.If, however, this tourist were to say that the Swiss are very punctual, this could be seen as a cultural characteristic. This is because it is a pattern of behaviour which is very typical inSwitzerland: from their transport system to their business meetings.In this way, some people argue that generalizing another culture is not just useful, but important. Politicians always have to be mindful of the cultural characteristics of different countries. By becoming aware of different cultural characteristics, they can avoid causing offence in those cultures.However, others argue that generalizing cultures will always lead to offensive stereotypes. They argue that the best thing we can do is to stop generalizing cultures and start treating people as individuals.All this raises important questions: Can making generalizations about groups of people be a positive thing? Or should we always avoid making broad assumptions about different groups?12、When he said “It’s like, this must be done absolutely perfectly... tomorrow”, Jeremy Clarkson really meant ________.A. the stereotypes of the Germans and the Irish are not so goodB. the combination of half German and half Irish is interestingC. the characteristics of the Germans and the Irish are oppositeD. the Germans will do it perfectly tomorrow while the Irish won’t.13、Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. It’s typical of the Swiss to be punctual.B. The Irish people are considered as lazy, direct and casual.C. The Germans are thought to be efficient, friendly and direct.D. The Swiss people can play the alphorn.14、Politicians think it important to generalize another culture because ________.A. they don’t want to offend other peopleB. generalizing will lead to offensive stereotypesC. cultural characteristics are better than stereotypesD. they should treat people as individuals15、The main purpose of this passage is to ________.A. show the importance of making generalizationsB. show it is wrong to play jokes on stereotypes of different peopleC. tell us the differences between stereotypes and cultural characteristicsD. discuss whether it is good to make generalizations about groups of people二、七选五16、Family meetings help your relationship with your teenagersOne good way to build cooperation among everyone in a family is to have a regular family meeting.
