When I bake coo kies, I immediately miss them the moment I have eaten the last one. Last summer when I left a summer camp, I didn't realize h ow great it really was until I got home. What happens, however,when that happens to one of your senses?A few months ago I woke up deaf in one ear. I did not pay much attention to it at first. It felt that I had water in my ear. However, I began to hear less and less out of that ear. I even had to ask people to talk into my other ear so I could hear them. I didn't rea lize how serious it was until later in the day. That evening, when I was sitting on my bed doing chemistry homework, I fell off my bed! When trying to get up, I was incredibly dizzy(头晕的).I went to see a doctor who told me that hearing loss was comm on. However, it was usually bilateral,_or occurs in both ears. He said that my hearing should come back within a week.After about a week the dizziness eventually went away, but the hearing loss did not. The medicine helped and I gained some of my hearing back. After many hearing tests, it was determined t hat I had permanent hearing loss in that ear.School became harder for me because I couldn't hear my teach ers. I was very depressed.Finally, I bought a hearing aid. With the hearing aid, my hearing is almost back to normal! It makes school and group conversati ons easier.My friends, teachers, and even complete strangers always ask me questions about hearing loss. I answer them patiently. I nev er get offended because I know that this is new to them. I am delighted I can teach them something new.What I have learned from this particular situation is that when th ings are desperate, there is always something good that can co me out of it. My experience has given me an opportunity to teac h people about something new to them and it has taught me ab out the value of hearing.1. What do you know from the first paragraph?A.

It can also be controlled from anywhere — even be d — using gestures or speech. The system works uses projecto rs (投影仪) and sensors already available.“The hardware is complete but only 40 percent of the software i s finished,” said Ion CuervasMons, director of Think Big Facto ry, a Spanish design agency which created the project. “Everything in the house can be used to communicate. Through projections that are activated(激活) by the presence of a person, we can control everything with the movement of the hands: the lights; turning on any electricalhousehold appliances; music; even connecting to Skype for a c onference from any part of the house.”The system aims to replace the traditional keyboards and remot e controls needed to interact with technology.However, Mr. CuervasMons claims much of the technology will be invisible. “I don't think that an Openarch home is going to loo k any different. New technologies must be nonintrusive and nat ural,” he said.Mr CuervasMons says the first inhabitant has already moved int o the experimental apartment. “He is delighted to use the house . The main interface is in the living room, where he can see soci al networks, magazines, and play music just using gestures,”he said.The project uses sensing cameras such as Microsoft's Kinect to track users, allowing them to swipe(滑动)in mid air to move through menus.The project started three years ago, and the project was built in an apartment in the North of Spain, all using existing technolog y.“Now we have around 40% of the applications actually running — and we hope to finish soon, then begin developing products so people can actually begin using it.”1.

When I bake cookies, I immediately miss them th e moment I have eaten the last one. Last summer when I left a summer camp, I didn't realize ho w great it really was until I got home. What happens, however, when that happens to one of you r senses?A few months ago I woke up deaf in one ear. I did not pay much attention to it at first. It felt that I had water in my ear. However, I began to hear less and less out of that ear. I even had to askpeople to talk into my other ear so I could hear them. I didn't realize how serious it was until late r in the day. That evening, when I was sitting on my bed doing chemistry homework, I fell off my bed! When trying to get up, I was incredibly dizzy(头晕的).I went to see a doctor who told me that hearing loss was common. However, it was usually bilat eral,_or occurs in both ears. He said that my hearing should come back within a week.After about a week the dizziness eventually went away, but the hearing loss did not. The medici ne helped and I gained some of my hearing back. After many hearing tests, it was determined t hat I had permanent hearing loss in that ear.School became harder for me because I couldn't hear my teachers. I was very depressed. Finally, I bought a hearing aid. With the hearing aid, my hearing is almost back to normal! It mak es school and group conversations easier.My friends, teachers, and even complete strangers always ask me questions about hearing loss . I answer them patiently. I never get offended because I know that this is new to them. I am deli ghted I can teach them something new.What I have learned from this particular situation is that when things are desperate, there is alw ays something good that can come out of it. My experience has given me an opportunity to teach people about something new to them and it has taught me about the value of hearing.1. What do you know from the first paragraph?A. The author had a great time in the summer camp.B. The author didn't enjoy himself in the summer camp.C. The author lost the sense of hearing in the summer camp.D. The author baked delicious cookies in the summer camp.2. The author fell off his bed when ______.A. getting up from the bedB. doing his homeworkC. waking up from a dreamD. wearing his clothes3.

We can infer that ______.A. after the treatment, the author's hearing loss was curedB. after the treatment, group conversations became easierC. the author took some medicine to treat his hearing lossD. the medicine the doctor gave him didn't work at all5. At present, the author is ______.A. desperateB. optimisticC. depressedD. offendedⅣ.阅读简答For Internet users, it could be the ultimate way to stay in touch — an entire apartment turned int o a giant, online screen.The walls show Facebook updates, and lifesized friends during video chats. It can also be contr olled from anywhere — even bed — using gestures or speech. The system works uses projecto rs (投影仪) and sensors already available.“The hardware is complete but only 40 percent of the software is finished,” said Ion CuervasM ons, director of Think Big Factory, a Spanish design agency which created the project. “Everything in the house can be used to communicate. Through projections that are activated(激活) by the presence of a person, we can control everything with the movement of the hands: the lights; turning on any electrical household appliances; music; even connecting to Skype for a c onference from any part of the house.”The system aims to replace the traditional keyboards and remote controls needed to interact wit h technology.However, Mr. CuervasMons claims much of the technology will be invisible. “I don't think that an Openarch home is going to look any different. New technologies must be nonintrusive and natu ral,” he said.Mr CuervasMons says the first inhabitant has already moved into the experimental apartment. “He is delighted to use the house. The main interface is in the living room, where he can see soc ial networks, magazines, and play music just using gestures,” he said.The project uses sensing cameras such as Microsoft's Kinect to track users, allowing them to swipe(滑动)in mid air to move through menus.The project started three years ago, and the project was built in an apartment in the North of Sp ain, all using existing technology.“Now we have around 40% of the applications actually running — and we hope to finish soon, t hen begin developing products so people can actually begin using it.”1.

I can't think of a better way of appreciating a new culture than by taking part in one of its festivals. Here are some special festivals around the world.Boryeong Mud Festival — Boryeong, South KoreaFor two weeks in July, millions gather in Boryeong to experience the grey pools and slides. What began as a way of promoting the region's mineralrich mud has turned into a festive party, complete with music and fireworks. While the mud is usually only available in cosmetic products, here you can cake (使……结块) yourself in grey as you want.Holi, the Festival of Colours, is a Hindu celebration full of joy and one of India's most important holidays. During the day of the last full moon of the lunar month, usually late February or early March, the air is full of bright coloured powder. The festival is celebrated differently throughout the country, but the cheerful spirit is common throughout Hindu communities around the world.Koninginnedag — The NetherlandsAlthough their current Queen's birthday is really during the winter, the Queen still celebrates it on April 30th,the country's official “Queen's Day” since 1949. Orange is the national colour, and the streets become a sea of feather boas (长围巾) and body paint as crowds gather in the plazas (广场). Amsterdam is the centre of this outdoor party, with many live music acts, but nearly every town is alive with orange on this day.In Thailand, March 13 is regarded as National Elephant Day to show that the Thai elephant plays an important role in the Thai history. Thai Elephant Day has been held on an annual basis since the idea was first approved by the Thai government in 1998. Special events are held at a number of venues in northern Thailand. At the Mae Sa Elephant Camp, it has become a tradition on March 13 for the dozens of elephants there to be treated to a huge feast of fruits and sugarcane.21.What we can learn from the passage is that ________.A. Boryeong Mud Festival was originally held to advertise for their mineral resourcesB. people around the world celebrate Holi differently to promote their religionsC. Koninginnedag — The Netherlands was celebrated on their current Queen's birthdayD. it is an international custom for the Thai elephant to eat all kinds of fruits and sugarcane2.The National GalleryDescription:The National Gallery is the British national art museum built on the north side of Trafalgar Square in London. It houses a diverse collection of more than 2,300 examples of European art ranging from 13thcentury religious paintings to more modern ones by Renoir and Van Gogh. The older collections of the gallery are reached through the main entrance while the more modern works in the East Wing are most easily reached from Trafalgar Square by a ground floor entrance.Layout:The modern Sainsbury Wing on the western side of the building houses 13th to 15thcentury paintings, and artists include Duccio, Uccello, Van Eyck,Lippi, Mantegna, Botticelli and Memling.The main West Wing houses 16thcentury paintings, and artists includ e Leonardo da Vinci, Cranach, Michelangelo, Raphael, Bruegel, Bronzino, Titan and Veronese.The North Wing houses 17thcentury paintings, and artists include Caravaggio, Rubens, Poussin, Van Dyck, Velazquez, Claude and Vermeer.The East Wing houses 18th to early 20thcentury paintings, and artists include Canaletto, Goya, Turner, Constable, Renoir and Van Gogh.Opening Hours:The Gallery is open every day from 10am to 6pm (Fridays 10am to 9pm) and is free, but charges apply to some special exhibitions.Getting There:Nearest underground stations: Charing Cross (2minute walk), Leicester Square (3minute walk), Embankment (7minute walk), and Piccadilly Circus (8minute walk).25.In which century's collection can you see religious paintings?A.

She and other teachershope the program will help students become successful.Ⅲ.阅读理解(原创)According to guidelines by the National Education Associatio n (NEA), a student should be assigned no more than 10 minute s per grade level per night. This means that a student in my gra de should have no more than 70 minutes of homework each nig ht. Yet this is often doubled, sometimes even tripled!As a result of too much homework, kids are developing more sc hoolrelated stomachaches, headaches, sleep problems, and de pression than ever before. In addition, students miss out on mu ch active playtime, essential for learning social skills, proper bra in development, and keeping off childhood obesity. Too much h omework is also weakening students' curiosity, and most import antly, their love of learning. Is that really what teachers and par ents want?Is homework really necessary? Most teachers assign homewor k as a drill to improve memorization of material. While drills and repetitive exercises have their place in schools, homework may not be that place. If a student does a math worksheet with 50 p roblems but completes them incorrectly, he will likely fail the tes t. Practicing dozens of homework problems incorrectly only cem ents(强化) the wrong method.However, if schools assign less homework, it would benefit teac hers, parents, and students alike. Teachers who assign large a mounts of homework are often unable to do more than spotche ck answers. This means that many errors are missed. Teachers who assign less homework, however, will be able to check thes e mistakes thoroughly. In addition, it allows a teacher time to fo cus on more important things. A student who is assigned less h omework will live a healthy and happy life. The family can look f orward to stressfree, carefree nights.Some schools are already taking steps to improve the issue. Fo r example, JohnsonMike Elementary School and MasonRice El ementary School in , , have limited homework, keeping to the “1 0minute rule”. Raymond Park Middle School in has written a po licy instructing teachers to “assign homework only when you fee l the assignment is valuable”. Others, such as Oak Knoll Eleme ntary School in , , have eliminated homework altogether. If thes e schools can do it, why can't everyone?So, my fellow Americans, it's time to stop the insanity. It's time t o start a homework revolution.1. We can infer that the author is ______.A. a math teacherB. a worried parentC. a strict headmasterD. a seventhgrade student2. How much time does the author often spend in doing his/her homework each night?A. About 35 minutes.B. About 70 minutes.C. Over 140 minutes.D. About 250 minutes.3. What is the main idea of the second paragraph?A. Some negative effects of too much homework.B. Healthy problems caused by too much homework.C. Active playtime essential for learning social skills.D.

In the past two years, Bennett devoted almost all his spare time to the research. He m et with a lot of difficulties, but he was determined to go on with t he research with the help and encouragement of his team. The satellite weighs only 6.5 pounds (3 kilograms) and is about the size of a loaf of bread. The satellite was designed to study s pace weather. Turbulent(恶劣多变的) weather often disrupts communication between ground net work station and satellites.Bennett came up with the idea for the project in a program of th e American National Science Foundation, which provides fundi ng for space weather and atmospheric research.The students involved were all undergraduates and were inspir ed and helped by their professors.However, Bennett said that the experience counted more than t he final launch. “We got to see it come from a blueprint(蓝图) all the way to a final product,” said Bennett, the student te am leader. “It's a valuable experience that few engineers get.”Bennett, now a graduate engineer, works for NASA's Jet Propul sion Laboratory.Last week the student satellite blasted into space. It shared a ri de on a 78feet(23meter) rocket with six other satellites which ar e conducting experiments for the military, NASA and universitie s.1.
