He was also the first artist to introduce Peking Opera to an overseas audience, making it popular to the world.Mei Lanfang began his stage life at the age of 8. His teacher said he showed little hope because of his boring eyes. To improve this, he exercised them day after day. Thanks to his efforts, he managed to change his dull eyes into a pair of bright and expressive eyes and win national fame before the age of 20.In over 50 years on the stage, Mei Lanfang played no less than 100 different characters in the performance. He also wrote many new plays, designing the dances himself. The many dances he created form part of the great treasure that he left to Peking Opera.In 1930, Mei Lanfang started on a successful US tour. There his brilliant performances impressed the audience, making them realize that Peking Opera was a theatrical form of great value.?56.Mei Lanfang was the first artist to introduce Peking Opera to ________.A. ChinaB. audienceC. the worldD. schools?57. How long did it take Mei Lanfang to exercise his eyes into bright and expressive?A. About 8 years.B. About 10 years.C. About 12 years.D. About 14 years.58.

Mei Lanfang’s great contributions to Peking Opera.BThe deserts of the world are not all covered with sand. Many of them have surfaces of rock or clay or small stones. They are not flat, either. They often have high hills and deep valleys. There is some plants’ life in many parts of the desert. There is little rain in the desert, but it does fall often enough for most plants.The deserts of the world are not uninhabited(not lived by people). People also live outside oases(绿洲), but these people are not farmers. They have camels, goats, donkeys, sheep, etc. These animals can live on the desert plants and do not need much water.The people of the desert have to move constantly from place to place, they must always look for grass or desert plants for their animals. They usually live in tents. When thereis no more food for their animals, they fold up their tents, pat them on their camels and donkeys, and move to anotherplace. In good years, when there is enough food for their animals, they trade their skins and their goats and camel hairs with the people of oases for wheat and fruit. But in bad years, when there is not enough food for their animals, the people of the desert would attack the oases people. But they are also hospitable, no man in the desert would ever refuse to give a stranger food and water.59. According to the passage, deserts are mostly made up of _______.A. clayB. rockC. stonesD. sand60.

From the passage we know that life _______.A. is hard in desertsB. is happy in desertsC. is impossible in desertsD. in deserts is much better nowCIndia has many festivais, with some celebrations that last for weeks. However, none of them come even close to Holi, India’s most colorful and fun festival. Celebrated on the day following the full moon, this year’s festival happens to be on March 19th.As with most Indian festivals, this one also has many different folk stories. Most of them center around the success of good over evil. The most popular one is about a king, who hates his son Prahlada for loving the creator of the Universe—Lord Vishnu. When every attempt to stop him fails, his sister, Holika believed to be immune(免疫的) to fire, joins in the effort by inviting the young boy to sit with her inside a huge fire. Helped by the power of Lord Vishnu, Prahlada escapes safely, while the evil Holika is burned to death. To remember this event, huge outdoor fires are lit in the night before Holi in order to clean the air of evil spirits and to celebrate the death of the evil.So what’s so great about this day While there are some fun parades(游行) and folk songs and dance performances, the most fun of all is walking to the streets and splashing(泼洒) people with water guns and dry colors and even covering them with entire buckets of colored water. On this day, everybody is fair game, no matter how old or how young.At about midday, the splashing comes to an end and people living close to oceans or rivers usually take a bath in the water to clean themselves before going home to a delicious home-made big dinner and a well-deserved short sleep, following this full day of fun and activities.64. Why does the king dislike his son Prahlada?A. Because Prahlada doesn’t love him.?B. Because Prahlada is rude to Holika.C. Because Prahlada loves Lord Vishnu.?D. Because Prahlada concentrates on his own success.65. Prahlada gets out of danger __________.A. with the help of Lord Vishnu?B. because of his good luckC. by beating his aunt Holika?D. using his amazing talent66. The underlined phrase “fair game” in Paragraph 3 refers to a person who __________.A. fights against others fairly?B. enjoys splashing peopleC. plays a trick on others?D. is the aim of splashing water67. After the fun activities, people living close to oceans or rivers often take a bath because __________.A. they have got dirty with dry colors and colored waterB. going home with colored water means bad luckC. they believe clean water will bring good luckD. taking a bath shows their true love for Lord VishnuDBelow is adapted from an English dictionary.

At 13,my hopes of fame and fortune clouded all judgement and I begged my parents to let me have never been rich,but they saw my enthusiasm and agreed.I imagined being signed by some famous model companies. For months,any boredom or disappointment I faced was pushed aside because I knew I would soon have the chance to bereal model. I thought I would grace the covers of famous magazines!Of course,I wasn't signed,but what hurt the most was being told that if I grew to 5′9″(about metres) I could be a success. I prayed for a growth spurt (冲刺) because I could not imagine giving up my dream. I made an appointmentwith a local modeling agency and the agent demanded $500for classes. $500 for a photo shoot,and $300 for other expenses. My parents only agreed after hours and hours of my begging.The agency sent me out on a few auditions,but with every day I didn't receive a call,I grew more depressed.The_final_straw came in July after I had decided to focus on commercial modeling. There was an open call in New York spent hours driving and another few hours waiting,only to be told that I was too short. I was devastated (极度不安的).Years later,I realized that the trip to New York was good as it made me notice I didn't actually love modeling,just the idea of it. I wanted to be special and I was innocently determined to reach an impossible goal.

Mastering one and then reinventingyourself after moving halfway across the world is another story, but AbigailFernandes is doing just that. The 17-year-old student was a good shooter whilestudying in Britain. But when she moved back to Hong Kong, China, life suddenlyfelt a little empty without the eight hours a week of shooting training she’dbecome used to.“I decidedto go for a sport that might help me get fitter and allow me to protect myselfin the future,” she explains. With its high intensity exercise, and chances tobuild strength, boxing fit the bill perfectly.“Boxingteaches you patience, but best of all, a hunger to learn,” she said. “Thevalues and lessons the sport teaches you can all be used in both yourday-to-day life and education.”Now, shehas been boxing for just a little more than three years and loves thechallenges that this sport offers. She trains 10 hours a week with her coachJim, who has helped her to grow as an athlete and a person.Though shehas made great progress, she thinks being able to deal with hits in the ring isher biggest challenge. “When you get hit in the ring, it’s so easy to burstinto tears and give up, but this gets you nowhere,” she says. “I want to beable to take hits and accept them. These are skills that can only be learnedthrough countless sessions of sparring . The firsttime I sparred I cried, so I’m proud of myself for never turning down asparring session,” she says.Abigailsays that though her training is pretty boring, she’ll keep practicing as shelooks for a competition where she can put her skills to the test.“I have along way to go,” she says, “but I want to learn everything this sport has tooffer!”(1)When did Abigail start boxing?A . When she studied in Britain.B . Before she became a shooter.C . After she came back to China.D . While she traveled half the world.(2)Why did Abigail decide to box?A . To protect her family.B . To prove her athletic ability.C . To earn a living in the future.D . To make her healthy and strong.(3)What is Abigail’s opinion on boxing?A . It is too dangerous.B . It is a waste of time.C . It changes her values.D . It helps her in many ways.3. 阅读理解Mostadults firmly believe that as kids reach their teens, they start to take crazyrisks that get them in trouble. Do teenagers simply love taking all risks muchmore than adults? A recent study suggests otherwise.Scientistsdesigned a simple experiment involving 33 teenagers and three other age groups.In the experiment, the researchers tried to distinguish between two verydifferent kinds of risk-taking. The first they called a willingness to takeknown risks and the second theycalled a willingness to take unknown risks .The studyoffered participants the opportunity to play two kinds of games. They had thechance to win money, with one game offering a known risk and the other offeringan unknown risk. On each round of the game, eachparticipant had to choosebetween taking a sure $5 and known or unknown risks of winning a lot more. Ifon one particular round they had picked the $5 for sure choice, then they got$5. But if on that round they had chosen to take a risk, the rules of the gamewill determine whether or not they had won. If they did win, they went homewith between $8 and $125. And, of course, if they lost, they went home withnothing.What thescientists found was really quite surprising. It turned out that the averageteenager was very hesitant when risks were known—more careful than collegestudents or parents-aged adults, and about as careful as grandparent-agedadults. This means that when the risks were known, teenagers were not risky intheir behavior at all. Only when the risks were unclear did teenagers choosethem more often than other groups.

(共15小题,满分30分)AAs a boy I was always small for my age. I was also five years younger than one of my brothers and seven years younger than the other. As a result I often felt left out when their friends came over to play. I was either too small or too young for whatever they were doing and they didn't want theiryounger brother listening to their conversations either. More often than not I found myself outside playing alone andfeeling forgotten.I remember one spring afternoon feeling especially lonely as I sat in the yard behind our house. We lived miles fromtown and I hardly saw my own friends outside of school. Iheard my brothers laughing from inside the house and felt a single tear coming down my cheek. At that moment I saw a large brown dog walking over to me. He looked happy and his tail was wagging as well. Even though he didn't know me he greeted melike a long lost friend, licking(舔) my chin and sittingbeside me on the spring grass. It must have been at least an hour that I patted and talked to this four-legged angel. Helet me pour out all my troubles and share my deepest thoughts before he kissed my cheek goodbye and ambled off either to Heaven or his home. I went back inside feeling happy, knowingthat no matter what life may hold I was loved. Now over 40 years later I still remember that angel with a smile.I believe that God sent him at that moment of sadness to remind me just how much he loved me. There is nothing more important than knowing we are loved. When we are loved, we will learn to love others. Learning to love helps us to understand ourselves and other people better.1.How did the writer feel when his brothers’ friends came?A. Proud.B. Worried.C. Lonely.D. Happy.2.The writer shared his troubles and thoughts with the dog because ______.A. it was his friendB. it could understand himC. it looked like an angelD. it was friendly to him3.From Paragraph 2, we can learn that ______.A. the boy met a long lost friendB. the boy had no friends at schoolC. the dog spent the afternoon with the boy and his brothersD. the dog helped the boy realize that he was loved4.The author wrote the story to______.A. encourage people to talk about their troublesB. show knowing you are loved is the most importantC. tell people they should treat animals friendlyD. share his unforgettable experience with usBI am a good mother to three children. I have tried never to let my profession stand in the way of being a good parent.I no longer consider myself the center of the universe. I show up. I listen. I try to laugh. I am a good friend to my husband. I have tried to make marriage vows (誓约) mean what they say. I am a good friend to my friends, and they to me. Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today.So here's what I wanted to tell you today: get a life. A real life, not a desire of the next promotion (提升), the bigger paycheck, the larger house.Get a life in which you are not alone. Find people you love,and who love you. And remember that love is notleisure(休闲) but work. Pick up the phone. Send an e­mail. Write a letter. And realize that life is the best thing and that you have no business taking it for granted.It is so easy to waste our lives,our days,our hours,and our minutes. It is so easy to exist instead of living. I learned to live many years ago. Something really,really bad happened to me,something that changed my life. If I had my choice,it would never have been changed at all. And what I learned from it is what,today,seems to be the hardest lesson of all.I learned to love the journey,not the destination. I learned to look at all the good in the world and tried to give some of it back because I believed in it,completely and totally. And I tried to do that,in part,by telling others what I had learned.By telling them this:read in the backyard with the sun on your face. Learn to be happy. And think of life as a deadly illness,because if you do,you will live with joy andpassion(豪情) as it ought to be lived.5. How did the author form her view of life?A.Through social experience.B.By learning from her friends.C.Through an unfortunate experience.D. From her children and husband.6. By the underlined sentence “It is so easy to exist instead of living.” in the fifth paragraph,the author really means that people tend to________.A.make a living rather than live a real lifeB.work rather than enjoy lifeC.waste a lot in lifeD.forget the most important lesson in life7. What’s the author’s attitude towards work?A.Do it well to serve others.B.Earn enough money to make life better.C.Try your best to get higher position and pay.D.Don’t let it affect your real life.8. It can be inferred from the passage that________.A.the author is a success in personal lifeB.the author doesn’t try her best to work wellC.the author spends all her time caring for her childrenD.the author likes traveling very muchCMom’s birthday present? It may be a difficult thing for some people, but for me, it is an easy thing. Mom loved s, so every year I sent her s. Actually she had a bed of irises (鸢尾花) in the backyard of her small, Indiana farm. They were beautiful. “Take some,” she said, “Dig some up and plant them on the side of your own ho use.”But in my yard they became lacking in energy. A year passed, then two, but not one appeared. I cut back all their green leaves. I was tired of seeing them so lonely. Finally, I dug the irises up and threw them away.About that time Mom died unexpectedly. My sister and I sold the farm. I never went back to see the irises. I just couldn’t stand seeing another family living in our home—Mom’s home. Autumn came, then winter. The following spring, as Mom’s birthday approached, I struggled with the questionof how to remember her. I stared out of the window and saw a few stubborn irises in my side yard sprouting (发芽), —tall, thin but less. Because of seeing them, I decided to order s as I always did on Mom’s birthday, and send them to my sister. I wished so badly I could still send s to Mom. But that was impossible.On the morning of Mom’s birthday, I was in my car ready to work. Something in the yard caught my eye. The irises! One had bloomed with s, big, showy and purple, as lovely as they ever had been on Mom’s farm. I smiled and turned my eyes upward. I could no longer send s to Mom. But somehow, she’d been able to send them to me.9.According to the first paragraph, Mom ________.A. didn’t like the presents from the authorB. wanted to give the author some sC. lived with the author on an Indiana farmD. got different birthday presents from the author every year10.At first, the irises in the author’s yard ________.A. all died quicklyB. grew as well as on Mom’s farmC. didn’t bloom at allD. grew bet ter than those on Mom’s farm11.What troubled the author?A. She didn’t know how to grow irises.B. She regretted they had sold Mom’s farm.C. She couldn’t bear others living in Mom’s home.D. She didn’t know what to do in memory of Mom.12.What can be learned from the last paragraph?A. All the irises in the author’s yard bloomed.B. The author went to see the irises in Mom’s yard.C. It was Mom who took care of these irises in the author’s yard.D. The author thought the blooming irises were gifts from Mom.DThe following are letters to the editor of a school newspaper.Dear editor,I’d like to express my opinion about grades. Students should be allowed to study without worrying about grades. Fortunately, most educators are becoming aware of the factthat students have different interests and abilities. I understand that grades are useful, but grades often limit creativity. Competing for better grades causes many students to turn down opportunities to pursue music, dramatics and sports. Grades force an arbitrary(果断的) standard of success on everyone. I do not demand as some extremists do, that grades be removed immediately. However, I do believe that less emphasis should be placed on grades. I hope that someday grades will become optional at Village High School.Magdalena SmithDrama ClubDear editor,I’d like to say something about grades. Let’s face the facts about grades. Grades perform three basic functions. First, grades motivate(激发) students to work at their highest level of competence(能力). Second, they act as a reward for hardworking students and as a punishment to students who do not work hard. Finally, grades are used as an effective standard by which to measure students’ achievement. Good grades help students to get jobs and to get into university. I've spoken with a number of students who have jobs, and most of them say that they were hired primarily on the basis of their grades. My grades helped me land a part-time job andwill help me get into university next year. I think grades are extremely important at Village High School.Simon HarperScience Club13.Which of the following is not Magdalena Smith’s opinion?A. Grades should not be used to measure a person’s success.B. Students may give up the chance to learn music and sports for grades.C. St udents’ creativity may not be developed for grades.D. Grades should be taken away at once.14.We can learn Simon Harper _____.A. is concerned about students' creativityB. believes in the benefits of good gradesC. doesn't work too hard at his studiesD. supports students' interests and abilities15.From the second letter, we can infer that Simon Harper is a/an_____.A. studentB. teacherC. headmasterD. advertiser第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的选项。

When soil is taken away by flowing water or blowing winds we call it soil erosion. Ways have been found to stop soil erosion, and this is known as soil conservation. One way of stopping soil erosion is to grow small plants such as grass. These plants are referred to a cover crops, whose roots hold the soil tightly together. The rain water can not wash away the soil. When trees and tall bushes are planted at the edges of an open field, soil erosion by strong winds can not take place. The trees and bushes, which act as a very big and firm wall, protect the open land from the winds. The way to stoop soil erosion on slopes is to build terraces on the slope of hillside and mountainside. When the slope of a hillside is cut into “step”, water carrying soi l can not run straight down the terraces, which are used to slow down the speed of the flowing water containing much soil in it. In this way most of the soil in the water is left behind on the terraces, much soil in it.56. What takes place in soil erosion?A.Flood happens to the fertile landB.A large quantity of the soil loses away gradually.C.Terraces are built on the slope of hillside or mountainside.D.Plants are grown to protect the open land57. “Cover crops” in this passage means _________.?A. grassB. trees and bushesC. plants life and an areaE.covering plants that produce grain or vegetables58. Besides growing small plants, another method to fight against soil erosion is to ___________.A. build terracesB. build wallsC. plant treesD. plant tall bushes59.
