Island because so many people who live on this remote island can only see in black and white.who's a fisherman,also struggles in full sunlight because all he sees is a painful burnt﹣out image."I find it difficult to go outside in the sun,"he says,"because when it's sunny I cannot see to do my work."But if being truly color﹣blind is rare,why is it that around 10% of the population of Pingelap lire

in supportive and caring home environments tended to do better on tests later on,and they were more likely to get higher degrees as adults.They were also more likely to get along with their classmates and feel satisfied in their romantic relationships."It seems like,at least in these early years,the parents'role is to communicate with the children and let them know,‘I'm here for you when you're upset,when you need me.And when you don't need me,I'm your cheerleader,'"says Lee Raby,a psychologist and researcher at the University of Delaware who led the study.Raby used data collected from 243people who participated in the Minnesota Longitudinal Study of Risk.All the participants were followed from birth until they turned 32."Researchers went into these kids'home at times.Other times,they brought the children and their parents to the university and observed how they communicated with each other,"says Raby.Of course,parental behavior in the early years is just one of many influences,and it's not necessarily causing the benefits seen in the study.While summarizing the results,the researchers accounted for theFinally,they found that about 10percent of someone's academic

When a dirty and untidy orange cat showed up in the prison yard, I was one of the first to go out there and pet it.I hadn't touched a cat or a dog in over 20years.I spent at least 20 minutes, knelt down behind the kitchen as the cat rolled around, relaxed.What he was expr essing outwardly, I was feeling inwardly.It was an amazing bit of grace to feel him under my hand and note that I was reaching a life or another creature with something as simple as my care.Over the next few days, there were other prisoners responding to the cat.Every yard peri od, a group of prisoners gathered there.They stood around talking and taking turns petting the cat.These were guys you wouldn't usually find talking to each other.Several times I saw an officer in the group, not chasing people away, but just watching and seeming to enjoy al ong with the prisoners.Bowls of milk and water appeared along with bread, wisely placed under the edge of the dustbin to keep the birds from getting it.The cat was obviously homeless and in pretty bad shape.People said that the cat came to the right place.He's getting treated like a king.This was true.but as I watched I was also thinking about what the cat was doing for us.There was a lot of talk about what's wrong with prisons in America.We need more programs.We need more psychologists or treatment of various kinds.Some may even talk about making prisons more kind.But I think what w e really need is a chance to practise our own kindness.Not receive it, but give it.After more than two decades here, I know kindness is not a value that's encouraged.It's often seen as a weakness.Instead, the culture encourages keeping your head down, minding your own business, and never letting yourself be weak.The cat did my heart good to see the effect he had on me and the men here.By simply sayi ng, "I need some help here", he did something important for us.He needed us.And we nee ded to be needed.I believe we all do.(1)Which of the following statements is true?________A The cat was dirty because it was kept in prison.B The author realized the importance of practising kindness. C The officer in the prison enjoyed petting the cat. D The prisoners prepared food for both the cat and birds.(2)We can infer from the third paragraph that________.A caring for others is encouraged in American prisons.B the American prison culture will be improved.C showing love to others can make prisoners strong.D the auth or is not content with the prison culture.(3)What is the best title for the passage?________A Animals Need Care.B Prison Culture is Important.C Caring Makes Us Human .D Everyone Needs to be Cared for.(4)In Paragraph 2,the author mentioned that"Several times I saw an officer in the group,not chasing people away,but just watching and seeming to enjoy along with the prisoners."to________.A show us the officer and prisoners get along well with each other.B show us the officer and prisoners all like the cat. C show us the American prison culture does need impr ovement. D show us the American prison culture is great.3. The origins of the apple tree are in Asia.We know that 8, 500years ago apples were bei ng grown and eaten in ancient Jericho, a city near the Jordan River.In some parts of the anci ent world apples could only be afforded by royalty (王室成员) and their courts, and were a popular dessert as long ago as 4, 500years.Now the apple is the most popular fruit in the world.You probably know that there's a tradition for students to bring shiny apples to their favori te teachers.But why?No one knows for sure.The idea of"an apple for the teacher"has been with us since the la te 1800s.Perhaps the custom grew out of the fact that apples are ripe (成熟的) in September, when the school year usually begins.In earlier times, students, particula rly those in rural areas, could pick apples from trees on their way to school.They were easy gifts for children to give.However, the lovely practice took on a dark note if the other children thought the gift-giver was trying to buy the teacher into giving him or her better grades."Apple polisher"ca me to mean someone who tries to please a superior (上级) in return for special treatment.It was a popular college slang (俚语) term in the 1920s, but the term isn't used much any more.It's true that apples can be very attractive.The apple is America's favorite fruit, as shown in the phrase, "as American as Mom and apple pie".After all, who ever says, "A banana a day keeps the doctor away"or"You're the banana of my eye"? And who brings a banana to his or her teacher? Nobody.(1)What do we learn about the apple from the passage?________A It has been popular worldwide since 8,500years ago. B It has been a popular dessert for about 4,500years. C The origins of the apple tree are in America. D Everyone could enjoy this fruit in the ancient world.(2)Why did students give their teachers apples?________A Apples were ripe when the school year began.B Apples were the most popular fruit . D Teachers liked to get apples from students.(3)Which of the following is TRUE about the phrase"apple polisher"?________A It is used to praise someone for his/her performance.B It is still as popular nowaday s as before.C It may mean something good or bad,depending on the situation. D It refers to someone who wants to please a leader.(4)What do we learn from the last two paragraphs?________A Apples are related to mothers in America.B Apple is a popular word,and used in many phrases. C Apples are attractive because of many stories. D No body wants to use the word banana.4. One of the special features of English people is self-discipline (自律).Generally, English people are polite and always want to please others.On the other ha nd, they don't like to show their emotions, even in dangerous situations.Imagine the scene! Some English people are caught in a violent storm in the forest.Anybody else would be anxi ous to run away.The English would just try to hide their emotions.Not a sign of fear would be seen on their faces.We often hear of the English"reserve"(矜持).On a long railway journey, with four Englishmen sitting together, often there won't be a single word spoken during the whole journey.The English think it is a bad manner to ask p ersonal questions.That wouldn't be the case in America.In a short ride in New York, a taxi driver will tell you about himself, his wife and his family, and probably the towns of England he has visited, too.The English value privacy (隐私) very much.An Englishman's house usually has a small garden with a fence all around to separate it from the neighbors'.An Englishman's house is his castle.Finally, we have to refer to the most special feature of the Scottish (苏格兰的) people-the Scottish dress.Scotland is probably best known to the world for its traditional costume-the kilt.This short, skirt-like piece of clothing is worn by men.The kilt is made of a special type of colorful cloth called tartan, which is very special in Scot land.(1)When the English are in a dangerous situation they usually________.A laugh at other people.B behave very bravely.C hide their emotions.D run a way immediately.(2)In the second paragraph the author mentions a taxi driver in New York to________.A explain what a personal question is.B show the bad manners of Americans.C show that English people are not very polite.D show the reserve of the English.(3)What do we know about the kilt in the last paragraph?________A It's long and just like a skirt.B It's worn by both men and women.C It's madeof a special type of cloth in Scotland. D It's a traditional costume all over Great Britain.(4)What can we learn about the English from the passage?________A They are not very confident.B A house with a fence all around makes them feel safe .C They usually don't respect others'privacy.D They prefer a house with a garden to a flat.二、七选五5. Although it is fashionable to say that everyone should share the housework equally,in many homes parents do most of it.(1)________It is true that young people spend most of the day at school or college and they also have large amounts of homework to do when they come home.(2)________ In my view,family life is more pleasant when everyone shares the responsibility for cleaning and tidying because it takes less time.(3)________ But in my opinion,young people should learn to do them as preparation for the future.Teenagers should share the housework because learning how to do it will help them when th ey have you look after their own family in the future.(4)________ But if they learn to do some basic housework when they are old enough to do it,they won't be worried about doing the housework in their new grown-up life.Finally,housework is boring if you do it alone.But when families do it together,it gives parents and children a chance to talk to each other about the things that matter to th em.(5)________For all these reasons,I think that everyone should share the housework.A.In fact,sharing the housework equally is impossible.B.They think they have an important role in their family.C.On the other hand,parents go out to work and come home tired.D.People often argue that parents do the cooking and cleaning better.E.In my opinion,I believe people of all ages should do their fair share.F.Too many young adults leave home without knowing how to cook or clean.G.This greatly improves family life and makes young people more responsible.三、完形填空6. 阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AMaybe you don’t think animals have certain mental powers which human beings do not have. But the truth is that some of them have instincts, and besides this, I am sure they can feel certain things we humans cannot. A personal experience showed me this.Some years ago, I had a dog named Howard. From the time when he was a puppy, he was timid, so we named him Howard, sounding like “coward”! He was especially afraid of thunderstorms. At the first flash of lightning or crash of thunder, he would run into his house and hide under a table.I often went for a walk with Howard. Once, as we were walking along a road, it began to rain. I quickly ran to a bus stop for shelter. The bus stop had a roof supported by metal poles. Soon after I had got there, Howard caught my trousers in his teeth and tried to pull me away. At first I was puzzled and a little angry at his behavior. But I decided to humor him and walked away from the shelter into the rain and started to go home.When I was about two hundred meters from the shelter, there came a flash of lightning and soon after, there was thunder which nearly deafened(震聋) me. Howardstopped walking and began whining(哀鸣). Thinking he was afraid, I bent to pick him up. As I straightened up, I glanced at the bus shelter we had just left. I was shocked to see that two of the poles were bent and the roof was lying on the ground, broken. The shelter had been struck by the bolt of lightning!21. The reason why the author was puzzled and angry with the dog was that .A. Howard had a strange behaviorB. Howard should be afraid of the metal polesC. Howard should know the approaching of the terrible lightningD. Howard bit his trousers in his teeth22. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Dogs are cleverer and better than men.B. Dogs are usually afraid of thunderstorms.C. Some animals can feel certain things humans cannot.D. Dogs are naturally born heroes.23. What can be inferred about the bus shelter from the passage?A. It was about 200 meter s from the author’s home.B. It was destroyed in a rainy day.C. Its roof was supported by wood poles.D. It could produce blinding flash of lightning.BLost iPhoneUnexpectedly, I lost my white iPhon5s in Midtown on Friday night. It had a blue green cover on it.

His body, when I found it, was lightly covered with snow. It snowed almost every day for the next four months, while I sat on the couch and watched it pile up. One morning, I shuffled downstairs and was surprised to see a snow remover clearing my driveway and the bent back of a woman shoveling(铲)my walk. I dropped to my knees, crawled through the living room. And back up stairs so those good peoplewould not see me. I was embarrassed. My first thought was, how would I ever repay them? I didn’t have the strength to brush my hair let alone shovel someone’s walk.Before John’s death, I took pride in the fact that I rarely asked for help or favors, I defined myself by my competence and independence. So who was I if I was no longer capable and busy? How could I respect myself if all I did was sit on the couch every day and watch the snowfall?Learning how to receive the love and support that came my way wasn't easy. Friends cooked for me and l cried because I couldn't even help them set the table. “I'm not usually lazy,” I wept. Finally, my friend Kathy sat down with me and said, "Mary, cooking for you is not a burden. I love you and I want to do it. It makes me feel good to be able to do something for you. ”Over and over, I heard similar emotions from the people who supported me during those dark days. One very wise man told me, “You are not doing nothing. Being fully open to your sorrow may be the hardest work you will ever do.”I am not the person I once was, but in many ways I have changed for the better. My heart is now filled with thanks for people around me. I have been surprised to learn that there is incredible freedom that comes from facing one’s worst fear and walking away whole. I believe there is strength, for sure, in accepting a dark period of our life.28. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. The writer’s friend was unwilling to cook for her.B. The writer had been busy with her life before.C. Th e writer recovered from her sorrow quickly with his friend’s help.D. The day her husband died, it was snowing heavily.29. The underlined word “shuffled” in Paragraph 1 probably means ___________.A. stepped steadilyB. walked slowlyC. ran swiftlyD. fell slowly30. We can infer from the passage that ____________.A. the writer found her husband immediately he fell off the roofB. the writer became strong-willed immediately after John's deathC. the people around the writer were friendly and supported herD. before John’s death, the writer never asked others for help第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
