(A)Doctor Seuss was born in 1904. By the middle 1950s, he had become one of the best-loved and most successful children's book writers in the world. His books are very popular with young readers. They enjoy the invented words and the pictures of unusual funny animals and plants.In 1954, life magazine published a report about school children who could not read. The report said many children's books were not interesting. Doctor Seuss strongly hoped to help children and decided to write books that were interesting and easy to read. He used words with the same ending sound, like fish and wish. He did not receive training in art. Yet, he drew the pictures for most of his books.In 1957, Dr. Seuss wrote The Cat in the Hat.

In the end, he decided to take off his other ski and walk down the mountain. But he couldn't work out the right way to go.It was now getting dark and he was a long way from any place of safety. He knew that he might die that night in the cold temperatures. But Jake kept calm. At home, Jake watched a lot of TV programmes about living in difficult situations. He remembered the advice from these programmes and knew that he should build a hole in the snow. He made a hole and pointed it up the hill so the wind couldn't blow into it. Outside the temperature fell to a dangerous -15~C that night, but inside it Jake was safe from the cold.But he had to get down the mountain. The TV programmes always said. "If you are lost, you should find someone else's tracks through the snow and follow them. ""I wanted to live my life." remembers Jake. "So I got up and I found some ski tracks and I followed those." He walked and walked and finally he saw lights. Nine hoursafter he lost his ski, he found a team of workers who came to save him. He was safe!His mum was very happy when she heard the news.

It also notes a large increase in the number of international students from China.These findings are from the latest Open Doors Report. The report documents the record number of international students in the United States during 2012, 2013 school year. It says more than seven hundred sixty-four thousand four-hundred such students were attending American colleges and universities during the last two years. That represents an increase of almost six percent than one year earlier.On the other hand, the number of Americans studying overseas(海外) increased by one percent, which reached nineteen thousand this year.The report says one hundred ninety-four thousand students at American colleges and universities were from China. That is an increase of more than twenty-three percent over the year before. Peggy Blumenthal, an expert of international education, described the effect of the increase in Chinese students."Now they have been coming for some time. But this year was the highest level ever." She says many Chinese families are able to pay for the highest-quality education for their children. The children mainly choose to study in America."We know many of them have enough income to be able to afford to send them anywhere in the world that they want to go. And for the most part, looking around the world, Chinese students still prefer to come to theUnited States as their choice."Chinese students are not the only ones who want to attend American colleges and universities. After China, India sends the second largest number of students to the United States for higher education. India has about one hundred thousand students in American schools. South Korea is third with about seventy-two thousand students. Why do so many foreign students study in the United States? Peggy Blumenthal provides one reason."The advantage America has is that we have a huge system and a very perfect system. So there are over four thousand universities and colleges in the United States. Among them are some top ones in the world, and what that tells us is there is still a lot of room to host international students."Foreign students represent less than four percent of the total student population in American higher education. And from Learning English, that's the VOA Special English Education Report. I'm Bob Doughty. Thanks for listening.36. Bob Doughty seems to be ________.A. an exchange student from the USAB. an expert of international educationC. a viewer of VOAD. a reporter from VOA37. Which country below has the fewest students studying overseas?A. South KoreaB. IndiaC. ChinaD. America38. Which is NOT the reason why so many Chinese students go to the USA for further study?A. Chinese families can pay for the highest-quality education for their childrenB. The USA has a huge and a very perfect education system.C. There is a lot of room to host international students in the USA.D. The USA has some top universities and colleges in the world.39. Which of the following statement is true?A. China has 122,000 more students than South Korea at American colleges and universities.B. The number of Americans studying overseas is becoming smaller and smaller.C. The number of Asian students has an increase of 6% over the past two years.D. Most of the international students in the United States are Chinese.40.

A tour guide(D)VisasTravelers to France must have a valid passport (有效护照).

in Manchester in1852.It's first librarian was a man called Edward Edwards,Edwards attended the library's opening ceremony and two famous writers called Charles Dickens and William Thackeray were there too.How to Join aLibraryTo join a library,go to your local library and fill in a form.you'll receive a library card which is needed when using library services.Mobile LibrariesNot everyone can get a library.Some people live far away from towns and cities.Other people find it difficult to go out because they have an illness or a disability.Thanks to mobile libraries,these people can still borrow

the phone,but they can hear you.So,the way you speak is especially important.In fact,researchers have calculated that80%of communication over the phone is through your tone of voice;and only20%is from the words you use.Here are our top tips on how to speak over the phone.1.Facial ExpressionsYour facial expression can influence your voice.For example,if you smile,your voice will sound warm and friendly,just the opposite,if you have an angry look on your face,it can make you sound unpleasant.2.VolumeIf you speak too loudly,you could sound angry.And if you speak too softly,it'll bedifficult to hear you.So,speak loudly enough to be heard clearly,but not so loud that you're shouting.3.PaceThe pace of your voice is how quickly you speak.And this can show how you feel.For example,an angry person might speak faster than normal.Or a downhearted person might speak very slowly.Try speaking a little more slowly than normal.This will make you sound confident,and it'll make it easier for the other person to understand you.4.GesturesGesturing can influence the tone of your voice.When you gesture,you bring more air into the lungs,which can make your voice sound warmer.Gestures are also useful to help you stress the right words or even find the words you need.The best thing about gesturing during a phone call is that no one can see what you're doing,so you can gesture as wildly as you like!5.MovementIf you're feeling nervous,stand up and move around.It will reduce the nervousness in your body and help your voice to sound more confident.6.Pauses(停顿)Using pauses every now and then can help you to slow down.This will make you sound more confident and in control.Also,if you pause after giving some new information,it'll give the other person time to understand it.At the same time,listen to how the other person uses pauses.They could tell you something about thespeaker's feeling.For example,when a speaker is really angry,he might use pauses and says,"I…am…so…angry…"41.How much of telephone communication is from the words you use?A.20%.B.40%.C.60%.D.80%.42.What can people do to reduce their nervousness on the phone?A.Gesture wildly.B.Move around.C.Raise their voices.D.Make facial expressions.43.How can pauses help people talk on the phone?A.The speaker can show he is friendly.B.The speaker can tell more information.C.The listener will feel confident and in control.D.The listener will have time to understand the words.44.What is the passage mainly about?A.How to control the speed of your speech.B.Different good ways of talking on the phone.C.Reasons of making gestures while talking.D.How to improve communication among friends.45.What is the writer's opinion about telephone talk?A.Your voice on the phone will show what you're feeling.B.Using too many pauses while talking will annoy others.C.Speaking loudly makes it easier for others to understand you.D.The words you use are more important than the way you speak.第二节阅读填空阅读短文及文后A~E选项,选出可以填入46~50各题空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.46.In the middle of my home country there are very large places.They are hot and dry land called deserts.(46)Families live a long way from

Cold weather during winter months may keep many people from 1 home and running in the open air. 2 , a new study shows 3 the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. In fact, researchers say, running in cold weather 4 improve one’s performance(身体机能). Many people say running in winter is difficult. Two reasons are the low temperatures and bitter winds. Yet many runners might find 5 easier than running in hot weather. That could be because lower temperatures reduce stress on the body. When you run in cold weather, your heart rate is 6 than in warmer conditions. Besides, the body needs less water 7 a cold day than in warm weather. This information comes from John Brewer, a sports scientist at St. Mary’s University in London. Brewer says every movement runners make produces heat. He explains that one way in which we lose heat 8 by sweating , and that the body also loses heat by transporting the blood to the surface of the skin. But sweating puts much strain(张力)on the heart, particularly in hot conditions because it is 9 harder to lose heat when the external environment is warm 10 .In addition, running in higher temperatures results in faster heart rates. Scientists found, 11 , that heart rates were about 6 percent higher in the hotter conditions. However, running in cooler temperatures has 12 advantages. One is that the body does not have to work so hard to pump blood to the 13 surface in cooler temperatures, which means running requires less energy. Several websites note that the most important thing for people 14 run in cold conditions is to wear the right clothing. And especially, keeping as dry as possible is very important 15 exercising in low temperatures. (294 words)( )1.A. leave B. leaving C. left D. to leave( )2.A. But B. Therefore C.
