It was a pretty usual question.Simon shook his head, smiling He hardly listened or tried hard in class. Talking was so much fun. He wanted to be heard rather than listen.“Listen, and you'll learn something.” Mrs. Jacobs tried every day, but Simon never paid attention.That evening, his throat really hurt. The next morning, when he opened his mouth to say “Good morning”, nothing came out but a croak.Simon's mother looked at him. “Honey, you've lost your voice.”“Can I stay home?” He tried to ask, but words didn't come out. Instead, his mother checked him for a fever and decided it was good for him to go to school, even if he couldn't talk.When he got to school, Mrs. Jacobs said “Hello” to him, and he just nodded. When his friends asked him what TV shows he watched last night, he just shrugged.

He looked around, but seemed really out of it. Then Doug went back into the hallway and stood there looking straight up at the light. This was really strange. Cait didn't know what to do. Just then, Cait's father appeared and explained Doug was sleepwalking.Not all seep is the same every night. We experience some deep, quiet sleep and some active sleep, which is when dreams happen. You might think sleepwalking would happen during active sleep but a person isn't physically active during active sleep. It usually happens in the first few hours of sleep in the period called deep sleep.The truth is that not all sleepwalkers walk. Some simply sit up or stand in bed or act like they're awake when, in fact, they're asleep! Most, however, do get up and walk around for a few seconds or for as long as half an hour.Sleepwalkers' eyes are open, but they don't see the same way they do when they're awake They tend to go back to bed on their own and won’t remember it in the morning.You also might have heard that sleepwalkers can get frightened if you wake them up. That's true, so what do you do if you see someone sleepwalking? You should call for a grown-up who can lead the person back to bed. And once the sleepwalker is tucked back in bed, it's time for you to get some sleep, too!1. What does “out of it” most probably mean in Chinese?A. 茫然不觉B. 心满意足C. 垂头丧气D. 悠然自得2. When does sleepwalking usually happen?A. During active seep.B. In the first few hours of sleep.C. When dreams begin.D. When we're trying to fall asleep.3. What should we do if we see people sleepwalking?A. Wake them up.B. Walk around with them.C. Do nothing and get your own seep.D. Ask grown-ups to lead them to bed.4. Who is the text written for?A. Teachers.B. Doctors.C. Parents.D. Children.4.(8分)Note-taking is a skill that can help you do well in all your schoolwork—everything from taking tests to researching a paper. But unfortunately, most schools don’t have classes that teach you how to take notes. So here are some tips.Write down key facts. If you have a teacher who writes notes on the board, that’s good: You can copy them down. If not, write down the most important points from class. Does your history teacher mention the date of a key Civil War battle? Does your English teacher give examples of Shakespeare’s use of irony(讽刺)? Write them down!Different teachers do things differently. For example, some teachers may mention lots of dates and facts in class but only write the key ones on the board. Other teachers may not write anything down, but they may repeat a certain date or a piece of information. After a while, you’ll get to know a teacher’s style.Don’t overdo it. Don’t go crazy taking notes. You’ll be frantic(慌乱的) if you try to write down every word that’s said in class. And if you focus too much on getting your notes right, you might miss important points. Some people actually learn better by listening, writing down a few key points, and then going over the material after class.Ask. Don’t be afraid to ask the teacher to repeat something you miss. If the teacher is going too fast, your classmates will also be happy to hear the information again. If you don’t want to ask in class, see your teacher afterwards. It’s much easier than wondering if you got the notes right as you study.Compare. Keep your notes handy when you’re doing your reading homework. Compare what you wrote with what the reading says—you may even want to add to your notes as you read.1. What’s an advantage of note-taking according to the writer?A. It helps you to get good marks in tests.B. It’s a basic skill in researching a paper.C. It helps fix your mind on what the teacher says.D. It gives you a better understanding of key facts.2. Why is Shakespeare mentioned in the passage?A. To introduce the topic of note-taking.B. To compare writing styles in different times.C. To give an example of forming good habits.D. To explain what a key fact is in a teacher’s class.3. What is suggested in the third paragraph?A. Teachers encourage their students to be active in class.B. It’s helpful for teachers to learn from each other in styles.C. It’s not always possible to note down all information in class.D. A teacher’s style should be taken into consideration when taking notes.4. What’s the writer’s opinion according to the passage?A. Students must try to take correct and detailed notes in class.B. Students should put down only key points while listening carefully.C. Students must not interrupt the teacher by asking questions in class.D. Students should put down as much information as possible in class.二、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分10分)5.(10分)How to prepare for an exam is a big question that you always ask yourself. Here are some tips that may help you.Never fear or hate an exam and be confident.Some students study well but still may be much afraid of exams and due to this reason they get upset and won’t be able to get marks. 1.You have to be confident and it is of great help for you to gain success.Prepare a good timetable.Prepare a timetable before starting the study. 2Difficult subjects can be given more time and easier ones less, but most importantly you should spare some time for rest.Choose a proper atmosphere(氛围) for studying.Studying atmosphere plays a very important role. 3So pick a place where you feel comfortable. That is where you feel relaxed and can pay attention to what you are doing. Make sure that while you are studying a subject you are focusing on it only. So keep the books of other subjects away from your eyesight so that you won’t be upset about all the things you have to learn.Make notes while studying.This is a very important point. While studying,make small notes. The note should be short and clear to make the review easier. 4Yet don’t try to cover everything in it.5On the night before an exam you have to sleep well,at least 6 hours and not more than 8 hours. Remember this will have a great effect on your exam.And have your food as in your daily diet.A.Sleep well and eat well.B.So try to present answers in points.C.This should include all the subjects.D.Can anyone study well while others around are watching TV?E.A good note shall include the most important points.F.This will be of great use to your coming exams.G.So leave all your fears and free your mind before starting the study.三、完形填空(本题共计1小题,总分30分)6.(30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白的最佳答案,并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。

The exams were over and Farah wanted to invite her friends for a party.“Farah, aren’t you going to invite Hafsa?” her mother asked. Hafsa had been her best friend since childhood.“Mother, you know I am now a part of Purple Girls Club and we have some rules about people we can be friends with,” Farah answered.“Really? And what are the rules?” her mother asked.“Well, only very pretty girls can be part of our group. And Hafsa is so, you know, dark.”“I cannot believe it.” her mother said angrily.As Farah left the kitchen, her father called her from the living room.Farah went to her father and paled when she saw the exam report in his hands.“Farah, what has happened to your grades? You have failed in Mathematics.”her father said.Farah had no answer. The truth was that the activities of Purple Girls Club left her with very little time for studies.“Farah, it says that you can take part in supplementary exams(补考). If your grades don’t improve then, I’ll cancel your trip to Spain.”Farah went to her room and called Gina, the leader of Purple Girls Club.“Gina, can you help me to complete my notes before the exams?”Gina laughed, “Exams? Who cares about exams?”One by one, she called her friends in the club but no one seemed to care or wanted to help. Farah knew Hafsa would help her. Farah also knew Hafsa had been hurt by her, but Hafsa said, “If you need any help, just let me know. We can study together till your exams.”Next Monday, as two friends entered the school together. Gina called out “Farah, you know our rules. You cannot be friends with those who do not belong to our club.”“Gina I have a new rule about friendship,” Farah replied.21.

Learners of English often ask: What are the differences between British and American English? How important are these differences?Certainly! there are some differences between British and American English.‘There are a few differences in grammar. For example, speakers of British English say “in hospital” and “Have you a pen?” Americans say “in the hospital!” and “Do you have a pen?”. Pronunciation is some times different. Americans usually sound theirs in words like “bird” and “hurt”. Speakers of British English do not sound theirs in these words.

Do you prefer to vacation away fromother tourists? Are you careful to take only memories and to leave only footprints? If you answered yes to more than one of these questions, you just might be an ecotourist.Ecotourists are people who want to experience the unspoiled natural world and leave it that way when they return home. This trend started in the 1990s and ecotourism is now growing three times faster than the tourism industry at large. The Ecuador’s remote Amazon Basin(盆地) is contributing to that expansion, and it gives a snapshot of what ecotourism looks like.At the Ecolodge, a small group of cabins(小屋) sits Kapawi Ecolodge in the middle of the Achuar people’s reserve(保护区) and is only reached by air. From here, visitors can explore parts of the Amazon rainforest seen by few outsiders. As they do local Achuar guides explain how the forest is like their supermarket, where they find food, clothing, medicine and tools. As a result, tourists learn to appreciate the local culture as well as the natural environment.The owners of Kapawi pay monthly rent to the Achuar people, but they also train the community to run and manage the lodge. They have agreed on a plan to turn the operation over to the Achuar completely by 2011.The owners are working to make ecotourism benefit and empower the local people.You probably won’t start your own ecolodge, but you can be an ecotourist if you follow these guidelines: Protect the environment; Support local businesses; Respect the local customs and traditions.The world is full of fascinating places to visit. As an ecotourist, you can enjoy them yourself and make sure that they remain beautiful for future generations as well.28.

It wasn’t the first time I had been abroad. Like most English children I learned French at school and I had often been to France, so I was used to speaking a foreign language to people who didn’t understand English. But when I went to America I was really looking forward to having a nice easy holiday without any language problems.How wrong I was! The misunderstanding began at the airport. I was looking for a public telephone to give my American friend Danny a ring and tell her that I had arrived. A friendly old man saw me looking like being lost and asked if he could help me.“Yes,” I said. “I want to give my friend a ring.”“Well, that’s nice,” he said. “Are you getting married? But aren’t you a bit young?”“Who is talking about marriage?” I replied. “I ju st want to give my friend a ring to tell her I’ve arrived. Can you tell me where there’s a phone box?”“Oh!” he said. “There’s a phone downstairs.”When at last we did meet up, Danny explained the misunderstanding to me.“Don’t worry,” she said to m e. “I had many difficulties at first. There are lots of words which the Americans use differently in meaning from us British. You’ll soon get used to all the funny things they say. But most of the time British and American people can understand each other!”32. Where was the writer from?A. He was from AmericaB. He was from FranceC. He was from EnglandD. He was from China33.
