There are other important differences between two sexes.As white matter is the key to spatial(空间的)tasks,men know better where things are in relation to other things. A great footballer always knows where he is in relation to the other players,and he knows where to go,”says one researcher.That may explain one of life’s great mysteries:why men refuse to ask for directions and women often need to!young as one.A boy would try to climb a barrier(障碍物)before him or push it down while a girl would attract help from others.These brain differences also explain the fact that more men take up jobs that require good spatial skills, while more women speech skills.It may all go back to our ancestors,among whom women needed speech skills to take care of their babies and men needed spatial skills to hunt,according to one research.If all this disappoints you,it shouldn’t. The brain changes throughout our lives according to what we do with it.”says a biologist.36.Which of the following is true according to the first paragraph?A.Women’s brain is10%less than men’s.B.Grey matter plays the same role as white matter.C.Both sexes have the same amount of white matter.D.Grey matter controls thinking in the brain.37.What can we infer from the second and third paragraphs?A.Men do better dealing with one job at a time.B.Women prefer doing many things at a time.C.Women do not need to tell directions.D.Men have weaker spatial abilities.38.What is the writer’s attitude in writing this passage?A.Defensive.B.Persuasive.C.Objective.D.Supportive.BThe old shopkeeper led me through to the back of the shop.The room was filled with boxes and photographs of people dressed in old⁃fashioned clothes,holding packages in their hands.Who are these people?”I asked.Satisfied customers,”answered young Mr Hopkins. We have a very wide choice of items for sale.Whenever I serve a new customer,I always take their picture.”Mr Hopkins pointed to an ancient camera standing next to one wall. Now,how can I serve you?”he added.By this time,I had started to trust Mr Hopkins and had begun to appreciate the lovely items on sale.I needed to buy Christmas presents for my family and friends,and this seemed to be the perfect place to purchase them.I spent a very pleasant hour being shown the commodities in Mr Hopkins’shop.No matter what I asked for,Mr Hopkins found it for me.Finally,I bought an antique jewelry box,a pair of riding boots,a leather⁃bound edition of the Complete Works of Mark Twain,and a sewing machine.I was very excited that I had found such a good little shop.I promised Mr Hopkins that I would come back soon.I will tell all my friends about your lovely place,”I told the shopkeeper.Please do not do that,sir”,said Mr Hopkins. This is a special place for special people.You must keep this shop a secret.”Then he took my photograph,and handed me the picture straight away.That was quick!”I exclaimed.I looked at the photograph.In the picture I looked proud and excited holding the presents I had bought in Mr Hopkins’dusty shop.On Christmas Day,my friends and relatives were delighted with the presents I had bought for them.For weeks,my brother begged me to show him where to find this wonderful little shop.I finally agreed to take him to London to show him. When we arrived in London,we walked along Oxford Street,past the department store and found...nothing.The little shop was no longer there.In its place was an empty space being used as a car park.I checked the area again. There was the music shop,and there was the department store.In between should have been Hopkins and Son,but it wasn’t there.As I was staring at the place where the shop should have been,an old policeman came along. Are you looking for something sir?”he asked.I turned and said, I am looking for a little shop called Hopkins and Son.I thought it was here.”Oh yes,”said the policeman. There was a shop here once called Hopkins and Son.It sold all sorts of things, but it was knocked down over30years ago.”I looked again at the place where the shop had been.Then I reached into my pocket and took out the photograph that Mr Hopkins had taken of me holding my presents in the little shop.How strange,”I exclaimed.39.How did the writer like the shop?A.He found it a modern big shop.B.He thought it a wonderful shop for all Christmas presents.C.He thought it a good shop with an ancient camera.D.He found it a dusty,old but friendly and lovely little shop.A.It was knocked down a few weeks ago.B.It was a well⁃known little shop in London.C.It was a special shop selling special presents.D.It was between a music shop and a department store.41.The word the commodities”in the4th paragraph means .A.the writer’s worksB.the goods in the shopC.Mr Hopkins’photographsD.some presents left by other customers42.Which of the following is the best title of this passage?A.Christmas ShoppingB.Hopkins and His SonC.The Strange ExperienceD.The Strange Little ShopCThe appeal of advertising to buying motives can have both negative and positive effects.Consumers may be con⁃vinced to buy a product of poor quality or high price because of an advertisement.For example,some advertisers have appealed to people’s desire for better fuel economy for their cars by advertising automotive products that improve gaso⁃line mileage.Some of the products work.Others are worthless and a waste of consumers’money. Sometimes advertising is intentionally misleading.A few years ago a brand of bread was offer to dieters with the message that there were fewer calories in every slice.It turned out that the bread was not dietetic,but just regular bread.There were fewer calories because it was sliced very thin,but there were the same number of calories in every loaf.On the positive side,emotional appeals may respond to a consumer’s real concerns.Consider fire insurance.Fire insurance may be sold by appealing to fear of loss.But fear of loss is the real reason for fire insurance.The security of knowing that property is protected by insurance makes the purchase of fire insurance a worthwhile investment for most people.If consumers consider the quality of the insurance plans as well as the message in the ads,they will benefit from the advertising.Each consumer must evaluate her or his own situation.Are the benefits of the product important enough to justify buying it?Advertising is intended to appeal to consumers,but it does not force them to buy the product.Consumers still control the final buying decision.43.Advertising can persuade the consumer to buy worthless products by .A.stressing their high qualityB.convincing him of their low priceC.maintaining a balance between quality and priceD.appealing to his buying motives44.It can be inferred from the passage that a smart consumer should .A.think carefully about the benefits described in the advertisementsB.guard against the deceiving nature of advertisementsC.be familiar with various advertising strategiesD.avoid buying products that have strong emotional appeal45.The passage is mainly about .A.how to make a wise buying decisionB.ways to protect the interests of the consumerC.the positive and negative aspects of advertisingD.the function of advertisements in promoting sales四㊁书面表达(满分25分)每年高考后,高考状元被 热炒”㊂他们被各种采访和社会活动所包围㊂对此现象,有些人表示支持,有些人表示反对㊂请你结合下表,围绕 Should we give more attention to top rated college entrance exam takers?”这一话题写一篇英语短文来介绍这一现象并给出自己的看法㊂支持者认为1.可以促进社会对教育的重视;2.可以为广大学子树立良好的榜样㊂反对者认为1.过度的关注对状元本人有害;2.高分不一定高能㊂注意:1.文章开头部分已写好,不计入总词数;2.词数:150左右;3.可适当发挥,以使行文连贯㊂Every year after the college entrance exam,　第二单元　综合提优测评卷(B卷)一㊁1~5　B C C A B 6~10　A B C B C11~15　A D B D A二㊁16~20　D A C B A 21~25　A C B C D26~30　A B C D A 31~35　C B A B B三㊁36~40　D A C D D 41~45　B C D A C四㊁Every year after the college entrance exam,the top⁃rated exam takers will attract wide attention from all over the country.They accept various interviews,take part in different social activities and receive quite a lot of prize,money as well.Some people say yes”to this phenomenon.They think,for one thing,it can make more people care about education;for an⁃other,those top students can and do set good examples to the rest of the students.However,others hold opposite opinions about this,they be⁃lieve that giving too much attention to those top winners can do more harm than good to them.Meanwhile,high marks don’t neces⁃sarily mean strong ability.In my opinion,it’s all right to give proper attention to those top winners,but we shouldn’t pay too much attention to them.Af⁃。

When something goes wrong with an instrument, Charles West and Larry Jernigan do the repairs. Both men approach their work with a passion(激情). For them, it's important that students have a joyful experience with music.The two have worked together for almost 20 years. This year alone, they've fixed about 450 instruments. Both men are musicians and music lovers, so learning to do repairs came naturally.“I ha ve been a musician all my life，” says West. “I played in an orchestra here in the city. I majored in music in college. I played in an army band.”Jernigan's musical interests are varied. “I was formerly trained in the piano and guitar. The alto sax and th e flute, I picked up while working here.”In addition to fixing instruments, the two also go to schools to instruct teachers and students on how to make minor repairs on their own.West believes if children start early and stay involved with music, it enriches other areas of their lives. “I see that in other kids. I see it in myself. I have seen it hundreds of times and it works，” he says. “They learn teamwork. They learn patience and respect.”But West has concerns about the future of music in the electronic age.“This instant age has taken away from the sit­down, the patience. And to learn to play an instrumen t, it takes patience, it takes diligence and it takes time.”Being able to enjoy music on the job is one of the benefits of the job. Both men agree their best rewards are the students' performances.1．What's the job of West and Jernigan at school?A．Teaching music.B．Writing music.C．Making musical instruments.D．Repairing musical instruments.2．They love the job because they can________.A．earn more moneyB．learn repair skillsC．enjoy musicD．watch performances3．Which of the following is TRUE of the two men?A．They have fixed 450 instruments in the past 20 years.B．They can play and repair musical instruments.C．Jernigan used to play in an army band.D．West was trained to play the piano.4．According to West, what can people learn from music?A．Teamwork and patience.B．The value of time.C．The truth of society.D．Diligence and confidence.5．What is mainly talked about in the text?A．How to repair musical instruments.B．Learning experience of two repairmen.C．How to prepare a musical performance.D．The enjoyable job of two music lovers.Ⅳ.任务型阅读Known as the“King of Pop”，Michael Jackson sold more than seven hundred fifty million albums over his career.He redefined(重新定义)popular culture with his energetic music，dance moves and revolutionary music videos.Michael Jackson was born in Gary，Indiana in 1958.He was the seventh of nine children.He was five years old when he began singing with his brothers in a group called the Jackson 5.In 1968 the group signed a recording deal with Motown Records.Michael was eleven years old when they released their first album a year later.The Jackson 5 became an immediate success.Their music set sales records.Their first four songs were“I Want You Back”，“ABC”，“The Love You Save”and“I'llBe There”．They all reached the number one position in pop music record sales in 1970.Michael's first album performing alone was“Off the Wall”released in 1979.Three years later，Jackson released“Thriller”．The album was not just the best­selling album of all time.It also won eight Grammy Awards an d seven American Music Awards.In 1985，Michael Jackson helped write the song“We Are the World”．He recorded it with many other famous performers.The aim of the record was to raise money for starving people in Africa.The project raised millions of dollars with this best­selling song.Michael Jackson's next album，“Bad”，produced five number one hits，including“The Way You Make Me Feel”．Michael Jackson was a huge success，but was also a very troubled man.His behavior and appearance became increasingly strange.He had many operations to change his face.Michael Jackson died on June 25th,2009 of heart failure.He was just days away from launching a series of fifty concerts in London.Fans around the world mourned his death.Famous performers around the world told about the effects he had on their work.Michael Jackson left a huge mark on popular culture.His memory will live on in his unforgettable music.课时作业(六)Ⅰ.1.collection 2.gradual 3.trend 4.seek5．prejudice 6.discrimination 7.declined8．screamed 9.tendency 10.tutorⅡ.1.A考查动词词义辨析。

But his fame came late in his life.He was born in San Francisco, California in 1874. He lived in California during his early childhood. He was named after the chief Southern general in America's Civil War. The general's name was Robert Edward Lee. The poet was named Robert Lee Frost，because his father wanted to honor the general.Someone once asked another American writer, Ernest Hemingway, how to become a writer. The best thing, he said, was to have an unhappy childhood. If this is true, Robert Frost's childhood was unhappy enough to make him a very good writer. Robert Frost's father was a reporter who wanted to be a politician. He often drank too much alcohol and became angry. Robert was the victim of his anger.Robert Frost finished high school in 1891. After high school, Robert's grandfather offered to pay his costs at Dartmouth College. But Robert left the school after a few months. He did not like it. He spent the next few years working at different jobs. At one time, he worked in a factory. Later, he repaired shoes. He was a teacher. He was a reporter. Always, he wrote poetry.Robert Frost attended Harvard University for two years. After that, he returned to the many jobs he held before. For a while, Frost tried to take care of a farm in the state of New Hampshire. He was not a successful farmer. And he continued to write poetry. He said that until 1930, he earned only about ten dollars a year from writing.In 1912, he decided to try to make a new start. He took his family to Britain. The cost of living was low. In Britain, Frost found a publisher for his first book of poems. The book was called A Boy's Will. When it appeared in 1913, Frost receivedhigh praise from British readers. Praise was something he had not received in his own country.Ezra Pound, another American poet living in Britain, read the poems and liked them very much. He wrote a magazine article about Frost. He also helped get Frost's second book of poems published in America. That book was called North of Boston.1．The followings are writers EXCEPT________.A．Robert Edward LeeB．Robert Lee FrostC．Ernest HemingwayD．Ezra Pound2．In which order did the following things happen to Frost?a．He attended Dartmouth College.b．He lived in California.c．He moved to Britain.d．He earned about ten dollars a year from writing.e．He was thought highly of by British readers.A．a，b，c，d，e B．b，a，c，e，dC．a，b，c，e，d D．b，a，c，d，e3．The passage wrote about Hemingway in order to show that________.A．he had great influence on Frost's poetry and lifeB．Frost's poetry style was the same as Hemingway'sC．Frost was unhappy because he was the victim of his fatherD．Frost could become a great poet due to his unhappychildhood4．What can we learn from the passage?A．Once Frost's first book was published he gained great praise in his country.B．After leaving Harvard University, he began to learn to write poetry.C．Frost was found to have a gift in poetry while he studied in high school.D．Robert Frost's father was angry and drank a lot because he didn't realize his dream.5．What's the passage mainly about?A．Robert Frost's unhappy childhood.B．Robert Frost's first and second book.C．Robert Frost's family and jobs.D．Robert Frost's life and poetry.BArthur Miller(1915－2005) is universally recognized as one of the greatest dramatists of the 20th ler's father had moved to the USA from Austria­Hun gary，drawn like so many others by the “Great American Dream”．However，he experienced severe financial hardship when his family business was ruined in the Great Depression of the early 1930s.Miller's most famous play，Death of a Salesman，is a powerful attack on the American system，with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth.In Willy Loman，the hero of the play，we see a man who has got into trouble with this system.Willy is “burnt out” and in the cruel world of business there is no room for sentiment：if he can't do the work，then he is no good to his employer，the Wagner Company，and he must go.Willy is painfully aware of this，and at a loss as to what to do with his lack of success.He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the end.When it was first staged in 1949，the play was greeted with enthusiastic reviews，and it won the Tony Award for Best Play，the New York Drama Critics' Circle Award，and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama.It was the first play to win all three of these major awards.Miller died of heart failure at his home in Roxbury，Connecticut，on the evening of February 10,2005，the 56th anniversary of the first performance of Death of a Salesman on Broadway.6．Why did Arthur Miller's father move to the USA?A．He suffered from severe hunger in his home country.B．He was attracted by the “Great American Dream.”C．He hoped to make his son a dramatist.D．His family business failed.7．The play Death of a Salesman________.A．exposes the cruelty of the American business worldB．discusses the ways to get promoted in a companyC．talks about the business career of Arthur MillerD．focuses on the skills in doing business8．What can we learn about Willy Loman?A．He treats his employer badly.B．He runs the Wagner Company.C．He is a victim of the American system.D．He is regarded as a hero by his colleagues.9．After it was first staged，Death of a Salesman________.

However, the American Humane Association has worked for many years to protect animals in films. And，the digital age might make animal actors unnecessary.The new film Dolphin Tale tells about a dolphin that loses her tail because of an injury from a crab­trap. A doctor provides h er with an artificial tail that saves her life. The film is based on a real event. And the star of the film, Winter, is a real dolphin that lost her tail. The American Humane Society worked with the movie's makers to make sure Winter stayed safe and healthy during filming. The animal protection group does this for all animal actors in America.A thick book of rules and guidelines tells Hollywood movie­makers how to treat animals. Karen Rosa leads the American Humane Society's film and television group. He said，“Everything from the smallest insect to the largest mammal shall be protected. We believe that for the sake of entertainment, everybody should go home alive.”This was not always the policy in the early days of film. In 1939，a horse was forced off a mountain，falling to its death，in the movie Jesse James. The next year, guidelines were established to guarantee safe and healthy conditions for animals in movies.A new film Rise of the Planet of the Apes tells about the creation of super intelligent apes through science. However，no real animals were among the performers. Computer generated imagery provided the chimpanzees，gorillas and orangutans that movie goers see. Clare Richardson is the president of the Diane Fossey Gorilla Fund. She says computer generated imagery should decrease the use of animals in the film industry. She praises movie­makers for the use of computer­made animals.1．What's mainly talked about in the text?A．How to protect animals in making films.B．How to create animal actors by computer.C．How to use animals to produce digital films.D．How to improve the movie­making industry.2．The film Dolphin Tale________.A．is not based on a real event of animal protectionB．calls on movie­makers to protect disabled animalsC．is a good example of a nimal protection in film­makingD．shows that a real dolphin without its tail cannot survive3．When was it forbidden to abuse animals while making films?A．In 1939. B．In 1938.C．In 1941. D．In 1940.4．The film Rise of the Planet of the Apes mainly tells about________.A．how actors protect animals in making moviesB．how directors make use of real animals in filmsC．how the computer­made animals replace actorsD．how intelligent animals are created by computer5．Which of the following is true of Clare Richardson?A．She believes that computer­made animals are dull.B．She thinks highly of the computer­made animals.C．She is famous for making films with animal actors.D．She directed the film Rise of the Planet of the Apes.Ⅳ.任务型阅读We are not born with courage, but neither are we born with fear. Maybe some of our fears are brought on by your own experiences, by what someone has told you, by what you've read in the papers. Some fears are reasonable, like walking alone in a bad part of town at two o'clock in the morning. But once you learn to avoid that situation, you won't need to live in fear of it.Fears, even the most basic ones, can totally destroy our ambitions. Fear can destroy fortunes. Fear can destroy relationships. Fear, if left uncontrolled, can destroy our lives. Fear is one of the many enemies hidden inside us.Let me tell you about five of the other enemies we face from within. The first enemy that you've got to destroy before it destroys you is indifference. What a tragic disease this is! “Ho hum, let it slide. I'll just drift along.” Here's one problem with drifting: you can't drift your way to the top of the mountain.The second enemy we face is indecision. Indecision is the thief of opportunity and enterprise. It will steal your chances for a better future. Take a sword to this enemy.The third enemy inside is doubt. Sure, there's room for healthy skepticism. You can't believe everything. But you also can't let doubt take over. Many people doubt the past, doubt the future, doubt each other, doubt the government, doubt thepossibilities and doubt the opportunities. Worst of all, they doubt themselves. I'm telling you, doubt will destroy your life and your chances of success. It will empty both your bank account and your heart. Doubt is an enemy. Go after it. Get rid of it.The fourth enemy within is worry. We've all got to worry some. Just don't let it defeat you. Instead, let it alarm you. Worry can be useful. If you step off the sidewalk in New York City and a taxi is coming, you've got to worry. But you can't let worry loose like a mad dog that drives you into a small corner. Here's what you've got to do with your worries: drive them into a small corner. Whatever is out to get you, you've got to get it. Whatever is pushing on you, you've got to push back.The fifth enemy inside is over­caution. It is the timid(胆怯的) approach to life. Timidity is not a virtue；it's an illness. If you let it go, it'll defeat you. Timid people don't get promoted. They don't advance and grow. You've got to avoid over­caution.Do battle with the enemies. Do battle with your fears. Build your courage to fight what's holding you back, what's keeping you from your goals and dreams. Be courageous in your life and in your pursuit of the things you want and the person you want to become.Title: Facing the 1.________within课时作业(十二)Ⅰ.1.robbery 2.accumulate 3.thriller 4.salty 5.tense 6.fantasy 7.fierce 8.institution9．contraditory 10.curriculumⅡ.1.D 考查动词辨析。

Now, a retired electrician says that 271 of the master's creations have been sitting for decades in his garage.Picasso's heirs(继承人) claiming theft, the art world is appreciating what appears to be an authentic(可信的) finding and the workman, who installed burglar alarms for Picasso, is defending what he calls a gift from the most famous artist of the 20th century.Picasso's son and other heirs say they were approached by electrician Pierre Le Guennec in September to confirm the undocumented art from Picasso's signature Cubist period.Instead, they filed a suit for illegal possession of the works—all but theft by a man not known to be among the artist's friends. Police took by surprise the electrician's French Riviera home last month, questioned him and his wife, and took the artworks away from them.Le Guennec and his wife say Picasso's second wife gave them a trunk full of art that they kept virtually untouched until they decided to put their affairs in order for their children. The Picasso estate describes that account as ridiculous.“When Picasso made just a little dra wing on a metro ticket, he would keep it，” said Jean­Jacques Neuer, a lawyer for Picasso estate. “To think he could have given 271 works of art to somebody who isn't even known among his friends is, of course, absurd.”The pieces, which include lithographs, portraits, a watercolor and sketches, were created between 1900 and 1932, an intensely creative period for Picasso after he moved from Barcelona to Paris.Among them are a richly colored hand study；a sketch of his first wife, Russian ballerina Olga Khokhlova, resting an elbow in a seated pose；and a collage of a pipe and bottle.The collage and eight others in the stash(藏匿物) are worth 40 million euros on their own, Picasso estate says. All of the art is now held by the French agency charged with battling illegal trade in cultural items.Le Guennec, 71, says he worked at three of Picasso's properties in southern France: A Cannes villa, a chateau in Vauvenarges and a farmhouse in Mougins, the town where Picasso died in 1973. The French daily Liberation, which broke the story on Monday, said Le Guennec had installed a security alarm system for Picasso at the farmhouse.Picasso's son Claude, quoted in Liberation, noted that his father was known for his generosity, but that he always dedicated, dated and signed his gifts, as he knew that some recipients might try to sell the works one day. The estate administrators, who examined the works for about three hours in September, considered that the works might be fakes. But they later ruled that out.1．From the passage we know the artworks mentioned________.A．are in the hands of Le Guennec and his wifeB．have been returned to Picasso's heirsC．are worth 40 million eurosD．were created between 1900 and 19322．Which of the following descriptions about Le Guennec is NOT true?A．He is now a retired electrician.B．He informed Picasso's son and other heirs of the artworks by Picasso.C．He knows many of Picasso's friends.D．He was questioned by the police and the artworks were taken away from him.3．According to Jean­Jacques N euer，________.A．Picasso had the habit of drawing on metro ticketsB．the newly found artworks of Picasso's were fakesC．Picasso couldn't have given Le Guennec so many of his artworksD．Picasso never presented his artworks to his friends4．The passage mainly focuses on________.A．the life story of PicassoB．the characteristics of Picasso's worksC．the finding of some of Picasso's worksD．the value of Picasso's works5．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that________.A．Claude said his father was too mean to have given anyone his artworks B．Claude thought the artworks mentioned were obtained in an illegal way C．it remains to be confirmed by the estate administrators whether the artworks mentioned are fakes or notD．Picasso used to sign his artworks in order for recipients to sell them Ⅳ.任务型阅读If you are asked to chair a meeting, remember the following six golden rules for meeting management.1．Always start the meeting on time. If you begin on time, group members who show up late will realize the value of time. Beginning on time reflects the skill as an effective time manager and sets an example for others to follow.2．Select a note­taker or arrange to have the meeting audio­taped.You may need to refer back to an issue that was discussed during the meeting at a later date. Good record­keeping is a sign of a good meeting manager as well.3．Learn to listen. So many times we think we are going to say and, in the process, block out important points that other group members may be contributing. Additionally, we often hear only what we want to hear, rather than really listen to other people. Meetings that are characterized by effective listening are successful meetings.4．Keep the discussion on track. Many times important issues can get sidetracked in a meeting, especially when everyone has a different opinion about the topic. If an unexpected conflict develops once the meeting is in progress, either appoint a subcommittee to look into the problem, or ask the participants involved in the conflict to meet with you after the meeting. Doing so will help keep the discussion on track and minimize(减少) the chances of wasting participants' time of great value.5．Give everyone an opportunity to be heard. Some people tend to control meetings, whereas others wait to be asked their opinions. As the leader of the meeting, you need to keep an open mind and make sure everyone feels welcome to contribute and express ideas without criticism.6．End on time.

And 15% of them consider it necessary for CCTV to make money from product placement, which is of great benefit to the development of CCTV itself.However, among the people surveyed, more than one third of them complain that the product placement has nothing to do with the programmes. 25% of them even feel hurt by seeing so much of it. Furthermore, the rest 10% hold the view that great harm has been done to the image of CCTV.From the chart we can draw a conclusion that most of the people surveyed are against product placement in the programmes. In my opinion, product placement nowadays is almost unavoidable, but it should not damage the art of the sho w and should take the audience’s feelings into account. (151 words)。

Look at how popular young writers like Han Han and Guo Jingming are.Gao Can is a writer. Actually, the 13­year­old is the youngest member of the Association(协会) of Writers of Shaanxi.So far, the eighth grader in the High School Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University has published eight books. She writes fairy tales, short essays, and most of all, poems.Gao said she began poem writing when she was in primary school. Once her teacher asked the class to write a c omposition called “If I were”，Gao had an idea—“why not make it a poem？” Since then, she has written hundreds of poems and published three books of them.“I don't have too much life experience，” said Gao. “I write about nature, about things I feel inside an d my spiritual world.”However, teenagers these days rarely write poems, or read them. Exams want “any style but poetry”．But like Gao, there are those who still read and write poems. Hu Jingzhi is one of them. The 14­year­old boy said that poems inspire h im.“But it's annoying that I can't find many poem collections in nearby bookstores.” he said.Gao agreed with Hu. She said that today's bookstores were filled with books on “how to make money quickly” or “how to give a successful speech”．“Poems won't tea ch you how to make money，” said Gao. “But the beautiful words clear your mind and stimulate your imagination.”“Writing poems is not at all difficult. Just express yourself. And read poems—for their beautiful style...and for the pure things in life.”1．The passage is mainly about________.A．some popular young writersB．how to write poems wellC．a young writer—Gao CanD．the reason why teenagers rarely write poems2．According to the passage, Gao Can probably likes writing________best.A．novels B．fairy talesC．short essays D．poems3．Which of the following statements is NOT true?A．Gao Can is a member of the Association of Writers of Shaanxi.B．She is a middle school student.C．At the age of 13, she began to write poems.D．She thinks writing poems is very easy.4．Why are there few poem collections in bookstores now?A．Because nobody likes writing poems.B．Because no teenagers want to read poems.C．Because there is no space for poem collections in bookstores now.D．Because poems won't teach how to make money.5．The underlined word “stimulate” probably means________.A．encourage B．reduceC．discover D．createⅣ.任务型阅读We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed­ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming(把……按能力分班) pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not­so­bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade! Besides，it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect for their total personality.We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed­ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups. This gives them the opportunity to learn to cooperate, to share，and to developleadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and evaluate, and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.Sometimes the pupils work in pairs；sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library，and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work，it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least，and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.课时作业(三)Ⅰ.1.envelope 2.rescue 3.chest 4.spat5．worn­out 6.sprang 7.paragraphs 8.supreme 9.reputation 10.intended Ⅱ.1.B考查动词短语辨析。

But his fame came late in his life.He was born in San Francisco, California in 1874. He lived in California during his early childhood. He was named after the chief Southern general in America's Civil War. The general's name was Robert Edward Lee. The poet was named Robert Lee Frost，because his father wanted to honor the general.Someone once asked another American writer, Ernest Hemingway, how to become a writer. The best thing, he said, was to have an unhappy childhood. If this is true, Robert Frost's childhood was unhappy enough to make him a very good writer. Robert Frost's father was a reporter who wanted to be a politician. He often drank too much alcohol and became angry. Robert was the victim of his anger.Robert Frost finished high school in 1891. After high school, Robert's grandfather offered to pay his costs at Dartmouth College. But Robert left the school after a few months. He did not like it. He spent the next few years working at different jobs. At one time, he worked in a factory. Later, he repaired shoes. He was a teacher. He was a reporter. Always, he wrote poetry.Robert Frost attended Harvard University for two years. After that, he returned to the many jobs he held before. For a while, Frost tried to take care of a farm in the state of New Hampshire. He was not a successful farmer. And he continued to write poetry. He said that until 1930, he earned only about ten dollars a year from writing.In 1912, he decided to try to make a new start. He took his family to Britain. The cost of living was low. In Britain, Frost found a publisher for his first book of poems. The book was called A Boy's Will. When it appeared in 1913, Frost receivedhigh praise from British readers. Praise was something he had not received in his own country.Ezra Pound, another American poet living in Britain, read the poems and liked them very much. He wrote a magazine article about Frost.
