Every Saturday he 36 to the town after dinner and spent a few hours on social 37 with other farmhands, such as drinking, chatting, and playing cards in the café. On Saturday evenings, the café was 38 because many farmhands were there. Before midnight Dad returned home on his horse, quite satisfied(满意)with his 39 . In his words, he 40 thought of changing his job.At the age of 31, Dad married my mother who was a school teacher. In the following spring I came 41 into the world. Life became hard, so my mother felt unsatisfied. She told Dad that they must make a 42 .My mother had 43 of how some famous persons, especially Thomas Edison who was born in a poor family, fought against fate and achieved greatness and fame. And she 44 that I would some day become a great leader,ruling men or cities and Dad should be a successful businessman. So she persuaded Dad to give up his job as a farmhand, sell his horse and 45 a small business of his own. And I went to high school and college. She even sent me abroad for 46 education when I graduated from college. Under the drive of my mother’s hope, Dad and I 47 what we have today. Dad runs a big international 48 and I am a successful lawyer enjoying great fame in my country, 49 not a leader as my mother expected.Dad said, without my mother, we wouldn’t be what we are today; at least, he would remain a farmhand.50 he got a lesson of life —sometimes we really need drive from outside.36.A.rode B.walked C.ran D.drove 37.A.conversations B.games C.relationships D.activities 38.A.cold B.crowded C.quiet D.dirty 39.A.horse B.entertainment C.life D.beer40.A.often B.ever C.never D.sometimes 41.A.laughing B.singing C.sleeping D.crying 42.A.living B.change C.decision D.house 43.A.dreamed B.heard C.thought D.spoken 44.A.cared B.knew C.forgot D.hoped45.A.start B.find C.design D.sell46.A.farther B.higher C.easier D.closer 47.A.showed B.kept C.lost D.achieved 48.A.farm B.school C.company D.cafe 49.A.though B.if C.and D.since50.A.So B.However C.Or D.Because36.

In another, failure may be regarded as a step towards success.The "spider-story" is often told as an example of this. Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a hole on a hill from the English. He watched a spider(蜘蛛) making a web. Bruce is said to have got confidence from this and to have gone on to beat the English. Edison, too, the inventor of the light bulb(电灯泡) , made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right way to make one.So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused it? Were you in high spirit then? What can you change so that things will go right the next time?Second, is the goal(目标) you are trying to reach the right one? Try to do some thinking about what your real goals may be. Think about this question: "If I am successful in this, where will it get me?" This may help to prevent failure in the things you shouldn't be doing anyway.The third thing to remember about failure is that it's a part of life. Learn to "live with yourself” even though you may have failed. Remember, "You can't win them all. “41.Robert Bruce was mentioned in the passage to show that.A.people who fail are not lonelyB.animals can help people sometimesC.nature will help us if we are hard-workingD.confidence is important for one to be successful42.Edison's example shows us that.A.he liked to do other kinds of workB.he invented many kinds of light bulbsC.failure may be a way towards successD.he was a man of many important inventions43.If you are not sure about what success will get you, you'd better .A. change your goalB. go on with your goalC. not care for thatD. work even harder on your goal44.It can be learned from the passage that.A.one should try not to failB. one's failure is another's successC.one should take failures seriouslyD. one should learn lessons from failures45.This passage is mainly about.A.two great menB. two sides of failureC.ways to keep away from failureD. the right attitude(态度) towards failure(D) D C A D D(B)Napoga is a 12-year-old girl in Ghana (加纳), Africa. It is hard for her family to get clean water. Every morning, she leaves home at half past five to get clean water for her family in a village far away. It takes her six hours to get enough clean water for daily cooking and drinking. She has no time to go to school or to play with her friends. Millions of people in the world are like Napoga. They can’t get enough clean water to keep healthy.Earth Day is April 22. But on all other days, we must also remember it. The water we use is the most important natural resource on the earth.Water covers 70% of the earth’s surface. But most of that is sea water. We can’t use it for very many things. Fresh water covers only 1% of the earth’s surface.You probably feel lucky that your life isn’t as hard as Napoga’s. But that doesn’t mean you don’t have to worry about water. We all face serious water problems. One of them is water pollution. All kinds of things from cars, factories, farms and homes make our rivers, lakes, and oceans dirty. Polluted water is very bad for people to drink. And dirty water is bad for fish, too. Now, 34% of all kinds of fish are dying out.How do cars and factories make our water dirty? First, they pollute the air. Then, when it rains, the rain water comes down and makes our drinking water dirty. Dirty rain, called acid rain (酸雨), is also bad for plants, animals and buildings.Scientists say that in 30 years, more than half of the people in the world won’t have enough clean water. We have to learn how to save more water for ourselves and our children. Here is some advice for saving water:●Turn off the water while you brush your teeth. You can save as much as 450 liter s each month.●Leaky taps (漏水的龙头) waste a lot of water. Fix them right away!●You can easily cut your 10-minute showers in half—and you’ll be just as clean.●When you wash dishes, don’t let the water run.●Only wash clothes when you have a lot to wash. If your washing machine isn’t full, you’re wasting water!56. Every morning Napoga went to get clean water _______.A. without going to schoolB. before she went to schoolC.after she finished schoolD. after she played with her friends57. On the earth, _______.A. there is 71% of fresh waterB. we don’t need to worry about waterC. there is very little water for our livingD. sea water is widely used than fresh water58. Acid rain _______.A. is only bad for living thingsB. can be produced in factoriesC. doesn’t do harm to people, but it’s bad for plants, animals and buildingsD. doesn’t just do harm to human beings but to animals, plants and buildings59. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. It’s time to take care of the water we use.B. Water is the most important natural resource on the earth.C. Something must be done to prevent water form being polluted.D. Clean water means much to human beings and living things around us.(一)56A 57C 58D 59A(C)“Most experiences of absent-mindedness, forgetting where you left something or wondering why you just went into a room, are caused by a simple lack(缺乏) of attention,” says Schacter, a scientist from New York University. “You’re supposed to remember something, but you haven’t encoded(编码) it deeply.”Encoding, Schacter explains, is a special way of paying attention to an event that has a major impression(印象) on recalling(回想起) it later. Failure to encode properly can create troublesome situations. If you put your mobile phone in a pocket, for example, and don’t pay attention to what you did because you’re involved(参加) in a conversation, you’ll probably forget that the phone is in the jacket now hanging in your cupboard. “Your memory itself isn’t failing you,” says Schacter, “Rather, you didn’t give your memory system the information it needed.”Lack of interest is another reason which can lead to absent-mindedness. “A man who can recite(列举) sports statistics from 30 years ago,” says Zelinski, another scientist from New York University, “may not remember to drop a letter in the mailbox.” Women have slightly better memories than men, possibly because they pay more attention to their environment, and memory depends on just that.“Visual cues(视觉提示) can help prevent absent-mindedness,” says Schacter. “But be sure the cue is clear and available(有用的).” If you want to remember to take a medicine with lunch, put the pill bottle on the kitchen table—don’t leave it in the medicine box and write yourself a note that you keep in a pocket. Another common experience of absent-mindedness is: walking into a room and wondering why you’re there. Most likely, you were thinking about something else. “Everyone does this from time to time,” says Zelinski. “The best thing to do is to return to where you were before entering the room, and you’ll likely remember.”57. The writer of the passage thinks that encoding properly is very important because ________.A. it helps us to get back to where we wereB. it slows down the process of losing our memoryC. it helps us understand our memory system betterD. it makes us able to recall something from our memory58. One possible reason why women have a little better memories than men is that __________.A. they rely more on the environmentB. they have a wider range of interestsC. they have an unusual power of focusing their attentionD. they are more interested in what is happening around them59. The passage is mainly about __________.A. the memory system of personsB. a way of encoding and recallingC. the causes of absent-mindednessD. the impression of the environment on memory(二)56A 57D 58A 59B(D)Thomas Edison was a great American 71_____________. When he was a child, he was always72____________ questions and trying out new ideas. No matter 73____________ hard it was, he never gaveup.Young Tom was in school for only three months.

He learnt very fast and became very77__________ in science.One day, he saw a little boy 78___________ on the railway tracks at a station. A train was coming near quickly, and the boy was too frightened to move. Edison rushed out and carried the boy to 79___________.The boy’s father was so 80___________ that he taught Edison to send messages by telegraph.书面表达在当今社会,我们该如何成为一个好孩子?(1)在家里,我们应该主动帮助父母干家务,如扫地,洗衣服……,多与父母交流,理解父母……;(2)在学棱。

I was also sick for a long time. My parents worked, and I spent alot of time at my grandparent’s home. While my grandmother cleaned the house and cooked, my grandfather played with me.I was six when my grandfather died. A few months before he died, he gave me a beautiful blue and white blanket (毯子). I loved the blanket very much because it made me think of my grandfather. But after a few years, the blanket didn’t look very good. It had holes and was dirty. I didn’t want to throw the blanket away, so my mother made the blanket into a book bag. I was proud of the book bag, and I used it to carrymy books to school every day for a few years. Then the book bag was broken. I begged my mother to make something out of it. She made it into a pencil-box. After a few months, the pencil-box was broken, too. By then I could sew (缝), and I made the pencil-box into a small wallet.I used it for three years, but one day I lost it. I felt sad. My friends and family said, “Forget about it, Paul. You can’t make something out of nothing.”I thought about it for a while. I decided my friends and family were wrong. There was a way to make something out of nothing. I wrote down the story of my grandfather’s blanket.( ) 70. From the story, we know that .A.

They may become the most popular person simply by recalling(记起) people’s names and introducing them to each other.★Listen.Improving your memory, in any field, begins with one simple rule: paying attention. When you want to remember a new person’s name, you have to listen when he says it. Forget for a moment what you want to say and simply listen.★Repeat it immediately.Pretend you don’t hear the name clearly and repeat it, “You said your name was John.” Or you may say it out loudly when you shake hands. Try to use the name several times in conversation like “What do you think about this, John?” Or “See you, John.”★Write the name on their forehead.John Smith. Imagine his name is written on his forehead. This may seem childish(孩子气的), but the more unusual the picture we see, the better we recall it.★ .Look for a special feature(特征) of the person, like a long face or big eyes. Next time you meet this familiar person, you will remember his name.★Find the famous name in the person.Imagine the person standing in front of you as a famous person with the same name and you will remember his name. And then you have it, the secret of your amazing memory.49. How many ways does the writer tell us to remember people’s names?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.50.

But photography could only give people static pictures. So scientists were trying hard to find ways to make pictures that can move. They made lots of experiments, but failed again and again. It was Eadweard Muybridge who finally succeeded. He was the first photographer to try this successfully. But how did he make it? It was an interesting story.Back in 1872, people didn’t know exactly (确切地) whether all four of a horse’s hooves (蹄) left the ground at the same time when it was running. A gentleman called Leland Stanford made a bet with his friend about it. Most people believed that a horse always had one hoof on the ground, or it would fall over. But Stanford didn’t think so.At that time, it was hard to know who could win the bet, because a horse’s legs move so fast that it is impossible to tell just by looking. So they needed a way to record the movement of a running horse. Then Stanford offered $25,000 to the famous photographer, Muybridge, to help find the answer. In the beginning, Muybridge failed to get clear images, but he didn’t give up. He continued to improve his cameras. In 1878, after many experiments, he managed to get a sequence (连续) of 12 photos. One of them clearly showed that all four of the horse’s hooves were off the ground at the same time. And when the photos moved fast, people could see a horse running.Though is usually considered as the person who created the first movie in 1889, it was the work of Eadweard Muybridge and the bet that led to Edison’s invention.53.

Young and old alike are troubled by sounds over which we may have little or no control: car and house alarms, motorcycles, loudspeakers, even movie previews.We attend rock concerts, weddings, parties and sports events at which the music is so loud you can hardly hear the person sitting next to you. At home, televisions, stereos and computer games are often turned up so loud that listeners cannot hear a doorbell or a telephone.As if environmental noise were not enough, now we surround children with noisy toys and personal listening devices that can permanently damage their hearing. A series of studies conducted in 2002 indicated that even moderate(缓和的)background noise can interfere with how they learn language. In fact, children in classrooms on the noisy side of a school had lower reading scores than those whose classes were on the quiet side.Noise-induced(噪音诱发的) hearing loss can come about in two ways: from a brief exposure to a very loud noise or from consistent exposure to moderate-level noise. Thus, there is much concern about the lasting effects of MP3 players that are turned up loud enough to block out surrounding sound, like street noise. An MP3 player at maximum volume produces about 105 decibels(分贝)— 100 times as severe as 85 decibels, where hearing damage begins.So, before buying noisemaking toys, parents would do well to listen to how loud they are. If the item comes with a volume control, monitor its use to make sure it is kept near the lowest level. Consider returning gifts that make loud noises, or disable the noise-making function. Children who play computer games and stereo equipment should be warned to keep the volume down. Most iPods have a control that allows parents to set a maximum volume.Avoid taking children to loud action movies. If you do go and the sound seems deafening, ask the management to turn down the volume or insist on your money back.The League for the Hard of Hearing urges parents to encourage participation in quiet activities, like reading, doing puzzles, making things with construction toys, playing educational computer games, drawing1. troubles2. control3. problems4. environment5. damage6. ways/approaches7. exposed8. loud9. take 10.
