I was telling my boy Sonny the story of the hare and the tortoise. At the end I said, “ Son, remember: Be slow and steady, and that will win the race. Don’t you think there’s something to learn from the tortoise?〞Sonny opened his eyes wide, “Do you mean next time when I’m entering for the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy, Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway?〞I was shocked, “But the tortoise didn’t wish that the hare would fall asleep!〞“He must have wished that,〞Sonny said, “Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare? He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.〞“He didn’t have such a wish,〞I insisted. “He won the race by perseverance, by pushing on steadily.〞Sonny thought a while. “That’s a lie,〞he said. “He won it because he was lucky. If the hare hadn’t happened to fall asleep, the tortoise would never have won the race. He could be as steady as you like, or a hundred times steadier, but he’d never have won the race. That’s for sure.〞I gave up. Today’s children are not like what we used to be. They’re just hopeless.1.

Acres of diamondsOne of the most interesting Americans who lived in the 19th century was a man called Russell Herman Conwell. He was born in 1843 and lived until 1925. He was a lawyer and then became a clergyman（牧师）. The following is a true story shared by Dr. Conwell.The story was about a farmer who lived in Africa. He was crazy about looking for diamonds when a visitor showed him a diamond he discovered somewhere. At that time,a lot of diamonds were discovered on the African continent. The farmer got so excited about the idea of millions of dollars of diamonds that he sold his farm in search of diamonds in other places. He wandered all over the continent, as years passed by, constantly searching for diamonds and wealth, which he never found. Eventually he threw himself into a river and drowned.Meanwhile, the new owner of his farm picked up an unusual-looking rock about the size of an egg and put it on his fireplace as a sort of curiosity. A visitor stopped by and looked at the rock carefully. He told the owner at the rock on his fireplace was the biggest diamond that had been found. The owner said, “The whole farm is covered with them.” And sure enough, it was.注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右；2.至少使用5个短文中标有下划线的关键词语；3.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；4.续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。

Unlike most other holidays, the history of April Fools’ Day, sometimes called All Fools’ Day, is not totally clear. The only point in time that can be agreed on as the beginning of this tradition was 1582, in France. Before that year, the New Year was celebrated for eight days, beginning on March 25th. The celebration reached the highest point on April 1st. With the reform of the calendar under Charles IX, the Gregorian calendar(公历) was introd uced, and New Year’s Day was moved to January 1st.However, because in those days communications were not as developed as they are today, many people did not receive the news for several years. Some people refused to accept the new calendar and continued to celebrate the New Year on April 1st. These backward people were considered “fools” by other people. They were often sent on “fools” errands(差事) or were made the targets of jokes.This developed, over time, into a tradition of playing a trick on someone on the first day of April. The tradition eventually spread to England and Scotland in the eighteenth century. It was later introduced to the American colonies of both the Britain and France. April Fools’ Day thus developed into an international fun feast, so to speak, with different nationalities specializing in their own kind of humor at the expense of their friends and families.1.According to an earlier calendar, New Year's Day in France was _________.A.March 25thB.January 1stC.April 1stD.April 3rd2.Which of the following first had the tradition of celebrating the April Fools' Day?A.France.B.England.C.Scotland.D.America.3.What was people's attitude towards the new calendar?A.They accepted it happily.B.They refused it immediately.C.Some recognised it.D.Some laughed at it.4.What is the passage mainly about?A.What the French did on April Fools' Day.B.How April Fools' Day came into being.C.When the new calendar was introduced to France.D.Why some people were fooled in France.3. Beijing— The public has responded with vigorous support for an NPC deputy's proposal to extend the Spring Festival holiday from three days to 10.More than 78 percent of about 27, 600 respondents to a poll on www. people. com. cn<http://www. 21 cnjy. com/> voted in favor of the idea of Li Jing, who is also the mayor of Meishan city in South-west China's Sichuan province. Li said the lunar new year festival holiday was too short for family reunions, especially for the nation’s 220 million migrant worke rs.With hundreds of millions of people on the move during such a short time span, the holiday puts great stress on the public transport system and suppresses tourism, she added. She suggested the holiday be extended and cover the three adjacent(毗连的) weekends, which means the public could take a total of 16 days off and floating population could spend the Lantern Festival, which falls on the 15th day of the lunar new year, with their families.People would then have sufficient time to fully enjoy the traditional holiday with their families, Li said during an interview with People's Daily Online on Friday.Most online voters agreed that extending the holiday will ease the burden on public transport and strengthen family ties. "The Spring Festival is an occasion for family reunions and should be longer than the National Day holiday one responder said in an online post. “Every year, I wish I could spend more time at home for the Spring Festival, but I always have to go back to work. I hope the NPC will approve this proposal."Another online comment read: "Extending the Spring Festival holiday could prevent the annual transportation crush, which has in recent years resembled an exodus(出走) of fleeing refugees(难民)".Most of the about 13 percent who opposed the idea cited difficulties readjusting to work after the break. Some pointed out that office moral (士气) was generally low during the first week after the holiday. “After the six-day holiday, many people come back to work feeling absent-minded,”one respondent said. Some who opposed the extension suggested adding the Lantern Festival as an official holiday.Another 10 percent said lawmakers should carefully study the impacts before they make any decisions on holidays.1.Which of the following is NOT the reason why Li Jing suggested extending the Spring Festival holiday?A.The floating population could spend the Lantern Festival.B.People could spend more money and this could promote consumption.C.The lunar new year festival holiday was too short for family reunions.D.The holiday puts great stress on the public transport system and suppresses tourism.2.What was Li Jing's plan for the lunar new year festival holiday?A.It could cover the two adjacent weekends.B.The holiday would be from the first day of the lunar year.C.She added the Lantern Festival as an independent official holiday.D.The public could take a total of 16 days off including the Lantern Festival.3.The underlined word “crush” in the sixth paragraph probably means "________".A.uncomfortable pressure caused by a great crowd of peopleB.a drink made by pressing fruit and used as juiceC.a traffic accident resulting from traveling too fastD.people’s eagerness to go home to meet their families4.Why were some netizens against extending the holiday?A.It was a waste of time.B.People would not earn much money.C.It would have a bad effect on China's economy.D.People wouldn’t be in a good working stage after so long a holiday.4. I experienced the Naadam Festival in China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region for the first time this year. It falls on ①_______ fourth day of the sixth month of the lunar calendar, usually lasting for three days and it ②_______ (represent) by three events.On the first day, I set ③_______ to the games early with my friend Burin.

I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride (搭便车).I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured (使…放心) me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven’t changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.”I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.1.The author had to hitch a ride one clay in 1978 because .A.her work delayed her trip to SydneyB.she was going home for her holidaysC.the town was far away from SydneyD.she missed the only train back home2.Which of the following did Gordon do according to Paragraph 2?A.He helped the girl find a ride.B.He gave the girl a ride back home.C.He bought sandwiches for the girl.D.He watched the girl for three hours.3.The reason why the author offered a lift to the elderly man wasthat .A.she realized he was GordonB.she had known him for decadesC.she was going to the nearby townD.she wanted to repay the favour she once got4.What does the author want to tell the readers through the story?A.Giving sometimes produces nice results.B.Those who give rides will be repaid.C.Good manners bring about happiness.D.People should offer free rides to others.3、It happens every spring. Flowers suddenly burst out everywhere on the same day. But how exactly do plants “know” when to flower?It is a question that has puzzled biologists for years. But according to Science Daily, a US research group may have finally answered it---the secret lies in a protein called FKF1 which allows plants to sense the differences in day lengths so that they can tell the seasons are changing. They found that the protein can be activated (激活) by sunlight.Plants produce this protein every day in the late afternoon throughout the year. If there is no light at this time, for example, in winter when the sun goes down early, the protein won’t be activated. But when spring comes and the days get longer, the protein can be activated by day-light and the plants “know” it is time to flower.Although researchers have only studied how the FKF1 protein works in some experimental plants, they believe it is similar in many other plants, including crops like rice and wheat. This could be useful to the agricultural industry.“If we can control the timing of flowering, we might be able to increase crop production by speeding or delaying this,’ said Takato Imaizumi, assistant professor at the University of Washington and leader of the study. “Also, if we could control the timing of flowering in horticultural (园艺的) plants, they may be worth more commercially (商业上)”New technology based on this research might also lead to higher production of biofuel (生物燃料) plants. This would be helpful for providing energy.1. How do plants know when to flower?A. They receive messages from other plants.B. A certain protein tells them the time to flower.C. They are genetically (基因遗传上) timed to flower.D. Sunlight produces a certain protein in them to help them flower.2. What can we learn from the article?A. We are getting closer to controlling plant flowering times.B. Plants are more sensitive to cold weather and shorter days.C. When there is no sunlight, the FKF1 protein won’t b e produced.D. Researchers have studied how the FKF1 works in rice and wheat.3. The study mentioned in the article may help us understand how to ____.A. increase the number of species of horticultural plantsB. increase production in the agricultural industryC. have plants that flower all year roundD. produce more chemical energy4、 The need for a surgical operation, especially an emergency operation, almost always comes as a severe shock to the patient and his family. Despite modern advances, most people still unreasonably fear hospitals and anesthetics (麻醉药). Patientsdo not often believe they really need surgery---cutting into a part of the body as opposed to treatment with drugs.In the early years of this century there was little specialization in surgery.A good surgeon was capable of performing almost every operation that had been devised up to that time. Today the situation is different. Operations are now being carried out that were not even dreamed of fifty years ago. The heart can be safely opened and its valves (阀门;心脏或血管的瓣膜) repaired. Clogged blood vessels can be cleaned out, and broken ones mended or replaced. A lung, the whole stomach, or even part of the brain can be removed and still permit the patient to live a comfortable and satisfactory life. However, not every surgeon wants to, or is qualified to carry out every type of modern operation.The scope (范围, 广度, 机会) of surgery has increased remarkably in this century. Its safety has increased too. Deaths from most operations are about 20% of what they were in 1910 and surgery has been extended in many directions, for example to certain types of birth defects (缺陷) in newborn babies, and, at the other end of the scale, to life-saving operations for the octogenarian (八旬老人). The hospital stay after surgery has been shortened to as little as a week for most major operations. Most patients are out of bed on the day after an operation and may be back at work in two or three weeks.Many developments in modern surgery are almost unbelievable. They include the replacement of damaged blood vessels with simulated ones made of plastic; the replacement of heart valves with plastic substitutes; the transplanting of tissues such as the lens of the eye; the invention of the artificial kidney to clean the blood of poisons at regular intervals and development of heart and lung machines to keep patients alive during very long operations. All these things open a hopeful vista (前景,远景) for the future of surgery.One of the most revolutionary areas of modern surgery is that of organ transplants. Until a few years ago, no person, except an identical twin, was able to accept into his body the tissues of another person without reacting against them and eventually killing them. Recently, however, it has been discovered that withthe use of x-rays and special drugs, it is possible to graft tissues from one person to another which will survive for periods of a year or more. Kidneys have been successfully transplanted between non-identical twins. Heart and lung transplants have been reasonably successful in animals, though rejection problems in humans have yet to be solved.‘Spare parts’ surgery, the simple routine replacement of all worn-out organs by new ones, is still a dream of the distant future. As yet, surgery is not ready for such miracles. In the meantime, you can be happy if your doctor says to you, ‘Yes, I think it is possible to operate on you for this condition.’1.Surgeons in the early years of this century, compared with modern ones, _____.A.had less to learn about surgeryB.needed more knowledgeC.could perform every operation known todayD.were more trusted by their patients2.Modern surgeons_____.A.do not like to perform operations of the new typeB.are not as highly qualified as the older onesC.are required to specialize more than their predecessors (前任们)D.often perform operations which are not really needed3.The main difficulty with organ transplants is _____.A.it is difficult to find organs of exactly the same sizeB.only identical twins can give permission for their organs to be exchangedC.the body’s tendency to reject alien tissuesD.the patient is not allowed to use drugs after them4.‘Spare parts’ surgery _____.A.has yet to become a realityB.will be available in the near futureC.is only possible for animalsD.has been replaced by modern drug treatments5.You can be happy if your surgeon can operate because it means _____.A.he thinks your condition may be curableB.he is a good doctorC.he knows you will surviveD.you are getting better already5、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。

ANowadays many people have to work very hard in order to live a better life. Andthe harder they work, the less they pay attention to their heal th. But it’s very important for us to keep healthy in our everyday life. Here are some ways for youto follow.First, you should have a healthy diet. It’s necessary to eat enough fish and vegetables, as they contain many kinds of vitamin you need every day. Do not eattoo much fat, such as butter or anything too fatty. Too many sweets can do harm toyour teeth, so you’d better not eat too many sweets or chocolates and keep off coffee.Second, good habits can help you keep fit. Doing regular exercise is certainlya good way to ensure that your body is healthy. After a day’s work, an eight-hour sleep is needed. And avoid working or studying too hard.21．According to the passage, the reason why many people have to work hard nowadays is that they want to ______.A．earn a lot of money B．live a better life C．pay attention to their health D．keep healthy22．Eating too many ______ can do harm to your teeth.A．fish B．vegetables C．sweets D．carrots 23．Doing the following can help you keep fit except ______.A．doing regular exercise B．sleeping eight hours a dayC．keeping good habits D．working too hard24．The best title might probably be ______.A．keep fit B．live a better life C．eat more fruit D．study too hardBIf you do n’t use a dictionary. What should you do instead? The first thing you can do is trying to guess what the word means. Often the surrounding context gives a very clear idea of the meaning of the word. Even if you can’t work out the meaning exactly, you may be able to get a vague idea, enough to enable you to continue reading.Sometimes it is impossible to guess the meaning of a word from the context and then you will have to decide whether the word is important enough to make it worthwhile stopping and looking it up in a dictionary or whether you can just pass it by.Many times in your reading, you will come across words which you don’t know, but which do not prevent you from understanding all the main points of the text. You can make your dictionary used much more efficiently if you only look up the words which are necessary to understand the text and this means that you must develop the skill to decide whether the words are worth looking up.25．The passage mainly tells us in our reading what we would do .A．without knowledge of English B．when we look up words in a dictionary C．when we are guessing new words D．without using a dictionary26．What does the underlined word“vague”mean?A．mysterious. B．not clear. C．exact. D．important.27．In our reading some words we don’t know .A．help us to understand the surrounding context wellB．don’t prevent us understanding the main points of the textC．will be remembered foreverD．are borrowed from other languages28．In this passage the writer .A．advised us to use the dictionary as much as possibleB．told us not to be discouraged when we use a dictionary in our English study.C．gave us some advice on how to deal with these unknown wordsD．introduced some ways to take notes in the course of readingCLast year I had a wonderful experience. I went on a student exchange to Japan. It was an exciting time of my life and I learned many things about the school system in Japan. I was in Grade 11, which is second year of high school in Japan, but I was younger than most of my classmates. That’s because Japanese children enter first year of elementary school in April following their sixth birthday. I started school when I was still five years old.In Japan, Children attend elementary school for six years, where they study Japanese, arithmetic, science, social studies, music, crafts, physical education, and home economics （simple cooking and sewing skills）. During their three years in middle school, English is added to this list. Most schools have access to computers and the Internet.The classes in my school seemed rather big to me, around 30 students in a typical high school class. We ate lunch in the classroom, instead of a cafeteria and enjoyed a healthy, nutritious meal prepared by the school or by a local “school lunch centre” instead of eating the same, dry sandwiches every day. I really like the Japanese interpretation of school lunches. I also enjoyed the field trips and activities. At Japanese schools, there are many school events during the year, such as field day when students compete in tug-of-war, field trips, and arts and cultural festivals.29.
