puzzle many，as peopl e rarely think of that.In the early spacetravel years，astronauts ate dehydrated(脱水的)foods that were eaten through straws(吸管)．In today's space age，the foods that they eat are totally different.They eat foods in the same way as people do on the earth.Astronauts are able to prepare and eat a variety of foods in space.Some can be eaten in their natural form，like fruits，while some need to add water，like noodles.However，there are no refrigerators，so the foods have to be prepared and eaten without being stored for a long time.When the astronauts are hungry，they simply eat the foods by opening the food packages and with a fork，knife and spoon.Just like people on the earth，astronauts also eat three meals a day which include breakfast，lunch and dinner.Sometimes they also eat snacks.The US space agency NASA has found out that an astronaut's diet reduces by about 70% on a space mission，though he has a wide range of foods to choose from like nuts，chicken，beef，seafood，and candies.Drinks in the spaceship include coffee，tea，juices，and lemonade.Astronauts can also request a particular food that they would like to have in space.Scientists are always experimenting and trying out different space foods that can be offered to astronauts when on space missions.36．Now astronauts eat________in space.A．dehydrated foodsB．foods as people eat on the earthC．totally different foodsD．foods with a lot of water37．The foods the astronauts prepare________．A．can't be stored for a long timeB．can be put into refrigeratorsC．can't be eaten in their natural formD．can't be kept in the food packages38．Like people on the earth，in space，astronauts________．A．only have nuts，chicken and beefB．only have lunch for a dayC．only drink coffee，tea and lemonadeD．also eat three meals a day39．What are scientists trying out?A．Some very special snacks.B．How astronauts can sleep well.C．Different space foods for astronauts.D．How to get some fruits for astronauts.BThere are many opportunities for success around us.But it all depends on how you look at them and what you are looking for.It is important that you understand successful people are not born that way, but they make things that way.There are so many successful people who started at the bottom and made it to the top.They can make things happen through their strong will and honest effort.Condoleezza Rice was born in 1954 and grew up in the deep south of Birmingham, Alabama under very hard and unfair times of segregation(种族隔离)．Her parents taught her that an education would provide her with protection against things like poverty and prejudice.She went to college at the age of 15 and graduated at the young age of 19 from university.And she had been the US Secretary of State.Success in anything takes hard work and long lasting focus combined with an end goal in order to bring about the things you want. Nothing from nothing still leaves nothing whatever way you choose to consider the situation.If you put nothing into your life, you will get nothing back in return.If you decide to take the low road, then you will get low road results.This is the law of nature that cannot and will never be changed.Life will treat you the way you treat it and yes, you will reap what you sow.40．According to the author, success comes from________．A．attitudes and goalsB．richness and honestyC．appearances and giftsD．opportunities and education41．Successful people are those who________．A．make good use of others' supportB．gain protection from their parentsC．have strong will and honest effortD．are born at the bottom of the society42．From the passage we can infer that Rice________．A．was born in the deep north of BirminghamB．was clever and had strong willC．went to college at the age of 19D．didn't suffer from segregation43．What can we conclude from the last paragraph?A．We are examples to our children.B．Low road will lead to low results.C．There are few laws of nature.D．Nothing in our life is free.CIf you want to teach your children how to say sorry, you must be good at saying it yourself, especially to your own children.But how you say it can be quite tricky.If you say to your children, “I'm sorry I got angry with you, but...”，what follows that “but” can make the apology ineffective：“I had a bad day” or“your noise was giving me a headache” leaves the child who has been injured feeling that he should be apologizing for his bad behavior.Another method by which people appear to apologize without actually doing so is to say “I'm sorry you're upset”； this suggests that you are somehow at fault for allowing yourself to get upset by what the other person has done.These pseudoapologies(虚假道歉) are used by people who believe saying sorry shows weakness.Parents who wish to teach their children to apologize should see it as a sign of strength, and therefore not turn to these pseudoapologies.But even when presented with examples of true regret, children still need h elp to become aware of how difficult it is to say sorry. A threeyearold might need help in understanding that other children feel pain just as he does, and that hitting a playmate over the head with a heavy toy requires an apology.A sixyearold might need reminding that spoiling other children's expectations can require an apology. A 12yearold might need to be shown that taking away the biscuit tin without asking permission is acceptable, but that borrowing a parent's clothes without permission is not.44．If a mother adds “but” to an apology，________．A．the child may find the apology easier to acceptB．the child may feel that he should apologize to his motherC．she doesn't realize that the child has been hurtD．she doesn't feel that she should have apologized45．According to the author, saying “I'm sorry you're upset” most probably means ________．A．you have a good reason to get upsetB．I apologize for hurting your feelingsC．I'm wrong for making you upsetD．I know you're upset, but I'm not to blame46．We can learn from the last paragraph that in teaching children to say sorry________．A．their ages should be taken into considerationB．parents should be patient and tolerantC．parents need to set them a good exampleD．the difficulties involved should be taken no notice of47．It can be inferred from the passage that apologizing properly is________．A．not necessary among family membersB．a sign of social progressC．not as simple as it seemsD．a matter calling for immediate attentionD(2013·安徽高考)The Healthy Habits Survey(调查) shows that only about one third of American seniors have correct habits.Here are some findings and expert advice.1．How many times did you brush your teeth yesterday?●Finding：A full 33% of seniors brush their teeth only once a day.●Step：Remove the 300 types of bacteria in your mouth each morning with abatteryoperated toothbrush.Brush gently for 2 minutes，at least twice a day.2．How many times did you wash your hands or bathe yesterday?●Finding: Seniors，on average，bathe fewer than 3 days a week.And nearly 30% wash their hands only 4 times a day—half of the number doctors recommend.●Step：We touch our faces around 3，000 times a day—often inviting germs(病菌) to enter our mouth，nose，and e toilet paper to avoid touching the door handle.And，most important，wash your hands often with hot running water and soap for 20 seconds.3．How often do you think about fighting germs?●Finding: Seniors are not fighting germs as well as they should.●Step：Be aware of germs.Do you know it is not your toilet but your kitchen sponge (海绵)that can carry more germs than anything else? To kill these germs，keep your sponge in the microwave for 10 seconds.48．What is found out about American seniors?A．Most of them have good habits.B．Nearly 30% of them bathe three days a week.C．All of them are fighting germs better than expected.D．About one third of them brush their teeth only once a day.49．Doctors suggest that people should wash their hands ________．A．twice a day B．three times a dayC．four times a day D．eight times a day50．Which of the following is true according to the text?A．We should keep from touching our faces.B．There are less than 300 types of bacteria in the mouth.C．A kitchen sponge can carry more germs than a toilet.D．We should wash our hands before touching a door handle.51．The text probably comes from ________．A．a guide book B．a popular magazineC．a book review D．an official documentEAccording to the study carried out by experts at Massey University School of Educational Studies, watching preferred movies helps children learn.Scientists say that parents no longer have to worry about their children spending a lot of time at home since by watching their favorite movies they exercise their mind.In order to focus on kids' behavior and their depth of understanding when watching a film, Brian Finch, a lecture at Massey University School of Educational Studies decided to use the second movie from the Harry Potter series, entitled Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.The scientist states that watching the movie is just as educational as reading the book of J．K.Rowling, whose boy wizard motivated a lot of children to start reading books once again.A survey among school children found that Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets was the most popular movie among children with 17 kids saying they watched it for at least 10 times.“Kids identify_with Harry.He is not a superhero and like us, he's not top of the class or the best at ordinary things but he has these unusual talents we would like to have.”The release of Massey University School said that pairs of children who watched the film at a kid's home were videoed and scientists noticed different practices in viewing.There were pairs who talked and gestured to the display and each other and there were pairs who were saying little all the way through the movie.It was said that children's gestures were not performed only at the literal level of imitating the action of the movie characters but also “at the personalized engagement level where they physically elaborated (详细描述 ) on characters' emotional states which were not being overtly(明显地)expressed on screen.”52．One of the reasons why Brian Finch chose the second movie from the Harry Potter series is that________A．it can play an educative roleB．he likes the movie very muchC．there is a boy wizard in itD．it is adapted by J．K.Rowling53．How did scientists conduct the survey?A．By asking kids about their ideas for the movie.B．By taping kids when they were watching the movie.C．By asking parents about their kids' attitude to the movie.D．By recording kid's conversation when they were watching the movie.54．The underlined phrase“identify with” in Paragraph 5 can be best replaced by“________”．A．have the same feelings asB．are recognized byC．offer support toD．show sympathy for55．We know from the last paragraph that while watching preferred movies, kids________．A．talk about the characters' storiesB．learn some body languages and idiomsC．can have a deep understanding of the charactersD．can practice their spoken English with their partnerⅣ.任务型读写(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)Notetaking is very useful and necessary in our study and daily life.First, the advantage of notetaking is that it forces you to think for yourself at l east twice—once when you are reading and the other when you are using them.Second, notetaking also helps you to remember what you have read.It is much easier to remember what you have said in a note than what someone else has said in a book.However, how to write notes? There are two ways to write notes.One is to write notes in complete sentences.The other is to write notes in topical phrases.Even though a sentence note is as short as a topical note，a topical note is much better than a sentence one. The sentence note tendsto limit your thinking to your thought expressed by it.The topical note, on the other hand, tends to raise a question in your mind.Such thinking may lead you beyond the thinking of the author who first caused you to write the note.Remember that the purpose of taking notes is always for some future use, often for some future writing that you will do. Notes that make you think as you write are better than notes that merely help you remember information. So you are expected to learn to take topical notes while reading a book or listening to a talk.Title：On 56.________Ⅴ.书面表达(满分25分)假设你是李华。
