Here are the stories of a few of them.Abraham Lincoln(1809-1865)Abraham Lincoln was one of America"s greatest leaders, taking the country through the Civil War(from 1860 to 1865). However, his life was never easy. He started numerous businesses that failed. He went bankrupt twice, and was defeated in 26 campaigns for public office. He later said, “My great concern is not whether you have failed, but whether y ou are content with your failure. ”Vincent Van Gogh(1853-1890)Van Gogh is one of the most famous and influential painters in the history of Western Art. He"s renowned for paintings such as TheStarryNight, ThePotatoEaters and Sunflowers. However, during his lifetime, Van Gogh sold only one painting for a very small amount of money. Despite this, he carried on painting, sometimes even going without food so he could complete his collection of over 800 known works.Albert Einstein(1879-1955)Albert Einstein won the Noble Prize in Physics in 1921. However, he wasn"t always considered as a “genius”. He didn"t speak until he was four, and couldn"t read until he was seven. His teachers and parents thought he was slow, so he was expelled from school and couldn"t get into the Zurich Polytechnic School. He later famously said, “Success is failure in progress. ”Stephen King(born 1947)Stephen King is one of the best-selling authors of all time, but his first book, Carrie, was rejected by about 30 publishers.

When was the last time you did something really fun with one of your parents—just the two of you?Parents who take their young children to music,swimming and art classes often stop arranging such activities once their kids are older and in school all day.But it doesn"t have to be that way.Doing something enjoyable with your kids just might make you look at each other in a whole new way,especially if you do it through a class or an event.When parent and child become students together,it puts them on the same level,at least for a while.“I really like parents to come to class with their kids—they start sharing things and talking about what they’re doing and what they like,” said art teacher Pyper Dixon.However,finding something new in common is a big choice for them,especially when kids get involved in sports and other after-school activities.But it"s possible to learn a new skill or hobby together.That"s certainly true of Lauren,11,from Silver Spring,who is in Dixon"s class with her father,Dennis.“I was just going to drop her off,” Dennis said,“but Dixon persuaded me to stay.”Now Lauren gets to nag her father about doing his art homework.“He always leaves it to the last minute,” she said.“But then he"ll turn around to do amazing drawings,” she added.“We have different styles of drawing,so it"s interesting to talk it over with him.”Without the Saturday morning art class,Dennis said,he would be reading the paper,and Lauren would be on her own in her room or on the computer.But they talk more now.“I can"t think of an experience where you communicate with your kid so closely,” he said.The author raises the question at the beginning to________.A、expect an answerB、criticize some parentsC、introduce the topicD、support his argumentWhat does Dixon think is the benefit of parent and child studying art together?A、They will become equal.B、They will communicate more.C、The child will learn art much better.D、The parent will learn something new.The underlined word “nag” in the text probably means________.A、urgeB、helpC、ignoreD、teachWe can learn from the text that________.A、Lauren used to talk a lot with her fatherB、Dennis enjoys studying art with LaurenC、Lauren dislikes her father"s drawingsD、Dennis likes playing computer games【答案】:无【解析】:第8题【阅读理解】阅读理解Nikola TeslaLong overshadowed in public memory by his one-time employer, Thomas Edison, Tesla (1856—1943) was a brilliant scientist and engineer who earned more than 700 patents. He is most famous for developing alternating current (交流电), but his work also led to advances in wireless communications, lasers, X-rays, radar, lighting, robotics, and much more.Tesla was born to Serbian parents in what is now Croatia, but he emigrated(移民) to the U.S. as a young man, where he eventually became a naturalized citizen. Besides Edison, who later became his bitter rival, Tesla often worked with inventor George Westinghouse. In 1893, the pair demonstrated their advances in lighting and motors in the "White City" at the Chicago World"s Fair. In 1895, Tesla and Westinghouse developed the world"s first hydroelectric power plant, at Niagara Falls.At the turn of the century, Tesla set up a laboratory called Wardenclyffe in the small community of Shoreham, Long Island, where he conducted some of his most ambitious experiments. The building was financed by J. P. Morgan and designed by acclaimed architect Stanford White.The most prominent feature was Wardenclyffe Tower, also called Tesla Tower, a 187-foot-tall metal lattice tower topped with a big antenna that was intended to beam communications and even energy across the Atlantic.Tesla ran out of money while building the tower and was foreclosed(取消赎回权) on twice. As with his previous Colorado Springs lab, assets were sold to pay up his debts. In 1917, the U.S. government blew up the tower, fearing that German spies were using it in World War I. The metal was sold for scrap. For decades, the building was used for photo processing."The tower is long gone, but the three-quarter-length statue of Tesla unveiled last week is a fitting memorial," said Alcorn, a retired teacher. "This is the last remaining Tesla laboratory anywhere in the world," she said. "He inspires those who work hard but don"t get recognition, and people are starting to recognize how important his contributions are."As a sign of that growing appreciation, Elon Musk"s start-up electric car company Tesla Motors was named after the visionary inventor in 2003.We can infer from Para.1 that Tesla belong to those .A、who aren"t brilliant enough as an inventorB、who work hard but don"t get recognitionC、who have worked only for one employerD、who helped Edison to earn many patentsThe events that are related to Tesla are .a. he moved to the U.S. to become an Americanb. he entered the Chicago World"s Fairc. he joined in American army in WWId. he developed the world"s first hydroelectric power plante. he built a lab called WardenclyffeA、b, c, d, eB、c, d, e, aC、a, b, d, eD、a, b, c, dWhy did the U.S. government destroy the tower?A、To treat it as a sign of German"s failure in WWI.B、To stop it from being used for photo processing.C、To get its metal for the material of war.D、To prevent it being used by German spies in WWI.Which of the following can be seen as a sign of growing appreciation towards Tesla?A、An electric car company was named after him.B、A new statue of him was built in Croatia.C、People collect money to rebuild Tesla Tower.D、A lab was opened as a museum to Tesla.The purpose of writing this passage is to .A、explain why a car company was named TeslaB、introduce the achievements of TeslaC、inspire us to learn from a famous scientistD、record the contribution made by Tesla in WWI【答案】:【解析】:第9题【阅读理解】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C或D)中,选出最佳选项Albert Einstein(1879—1955) was one of the greatest andmost original scientific thinkers of allBorn of Jewish parents in Germany, hecompleted his education in Switzerland and got his Ph.D at the University of Zurich. He went to live in the United States in 1933 because of the rise ofNazism(纳粹) in Germanyand Hitler’s persecution(迫害) of theIn 1905,while still at Zurich,he publishedhis Special Theory of Relativity, which was based on things everyone mayhave noticed. If two trains are standing alongside each other and one trainstarts to move, a person sitting in the train may wonder whether his own trainis moving or the other is moving, and before he finds out what is happening, hecan see that one train is moving relatively to the other. From this and alsofrom other more complicated facts, Einstein came to the conclusion that allmotion is relative and that there are really no such things as absolute(绝对) motion. Some of the other conclusions he drew are that nothing can go faster than light, and that ifsomething such as a ruler was moving faster and faster it would seem to getshorter and shorter as its speed was near the speed of light. By 1915, Einsteinhad made known his General Theory of Relativity. He also improved onNewton’s theory of gravity. Most of his theories have been tested and found tobe true though some may sound strange.

His grandmother took care of the family and his mom worked 12-hour shifts at a car lot, doing everything she could to provide for the family.Dr. Decmona Warren, a teacher of a Communities In Schools(CIS), saw the signs but when she tried to help, Brandon wouldn"t take it. “When I heard her call my name, I would nearly run away. ”Brandon said later.His GPA(平均成绩)fell to a 1. 4 and Brandon was kicked out of the baseball team. He knew if he wanted to play baseball, he had to stop acting like that. Determined to become successful both on the field and in the classroom, Brandon decided to embrace the support from Communities In Schools. He turned to Dr. Warren, who welcomed him as a CIS student with open arms. From tutoring to parent-teacher conferences, he allowed Dr. Warren to become his“school mom”, and slowly, things started to turn around.“CIS of Atlanta has made a big difference in my life. This program has taught me to think before I act and make better choices in choosing friends. Before CIS it seemed like every week I was either out of school or in school suspension. Once when I was an honor student in middle school, I found myself failing miserably in almost all of my classes as a freshman in high school. But with the help of CIS I am now back on track, more focused and determined to do better in my academics and behavior. ”He"s back on the team now playing in the Catcher position, with a 2. 8 GPA.

As the only girl in a family of seven children, she often felt like she had "seven fathers ", because her six brothers, as well as her father, tried to control her. Feeling shy and unimportant, she hid herself into books. Despite her love of reading, she did not do well in elementary school because she was too shy to participate.In high school, with the encouragement of one particular teacher, Cisneros improved her grades and worked for the school literary magazine. Her father encouraged her to go to college because he thought it would be a good way for her to find a husband. Cisneros did attend college, but instead of searching for a husband, she found a teacher who helped her join the famous graduate writing program at the University of Iowa. At the University"s Writers" Workshop, however, she felt lonely—a Mexican American from a poor neighborhood among students from wealthy families. The feeling of being so different helped Cisneros find her "creative voice"."It was not until this moment when I considered myself truly different that my writing acquired a voice. I knew I was a Mexican woman, but I didn"t think it had anything to do with why I felt so much imbalanced in my life, but it had everything to do with it! That"s when I decided I would write about something my classmates couldn"t write about."Cisneros published her first work, The House on Mango Street , when she was twenty-nine. The book tells about a young Mexican American girl growing up in a Spanish-speaking area in Chicago, much like the neighborhoods in which Cisneros lived as a child. The book won an award in 1985 and has been used in classes from high school through graduate school level. Since then, Cisneros has published several books of poetry, a children"s book, and a shortstory collection.Which of the following is TRUE about Cisneros in her childhood?A、She had seven brothers.B、She felt herself a nobody.C、She was too shy to go to school.D、She did not have any good teachers.The graduate program gave Cisneros a chance toA、make a lot of friendsB、develop her writing styleC、run away from her familyD、work for a school magazineAccording to Cisneros, what played the decisive role in her success?A、Her early years in college.B、Her childhood experience.C、Her training in the Workshop.D、Her feeling of being different.What do we learn about The House on Mango Street ?A、It is quite popular among students.B、It is the only book ever written by Cisneros.C、It wasn"t a success as it was written in Spanish.D、It won an award when Cisneros was twenty-nine.According to the text, we know that________A、she didn"t enjoy readingB、she met a Mexican American girlC、her brothers treated her very kindlyD、she lived an uneasy life in her childhood【答案】:【解析】:第9题【阅读理解】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C或D)中,选出最佳选项Human beings are the most intelligent of all animals because we are gifted with the ability to think and reason logically. scientists and even common people with special intelligence have made a lot of inventions and contributions to modern lifestyle in the past. “Houses” hav e been the most popular area for discoveries and inventions in the past and even now.Many household items have been the result of inventions of people who desired better functioning of the existent products.

Our expanding bodies not only lead to a medical problem, but also endanger personal safety in some situations—in an airplane crash, for example, according to a recent article in The New York Times.The New York Times" Christine Negroni reports that engineers and scientists are questioning whether airplane seats are designed to protect overweight travelers. Government standards(标准) for airplane seat strength—first set more than 60 years ago---require that the seats be made for a passenger weighing 170 pounds. Today, the average American man weighs nearly 194 pounds and the average woman 165 pounds. Negroni reports:“If a heavier person completely fills a seat, the seat is not likely to behave as designed during a crash,” Robert Sa lzar, the leading scientist at the Center for Applied Biomechanics at the University of Virginia. “The energy that is built into the aircraft seat is likely to be overpowered and the passengers will not be protected properly”.“Nor would the injury be limited to that passenger only,” Dr. Salzar said. “If a seat or a seat belt fails,”he said, “those people who are seated nearby could not be safe from the uncontrolled movements of the passenger.”Most complaints(投诉) about airplane seats focus on their lack of comfort and high ticket price, and whether overweight passengers should be made to buy two seats. But The New York Times" article brings up another reason to feel anxious about flying. Investigators(调查者) got in touch with the airplane seat and seat belt makers, but they refused to talk about the problem. Experts agreed that crash testing should be done. Both airplane seats and seat belts should be tested, they said.Fortunately, however, according to Nora Marshall, a senior adviser at the National Transportation Safety Board, the board"s investigators have never seen an accident involving a commercial plane in which the weight of a passenger was a problem.What is the article in The New York Times mainly about?A、The size of airplane seats and seat belts.B、Safety of overweight airplane passengers.C、Airplane crashes.D、A medical problem caused by being overweight.Robert Salzar would probably agree that_________.A、overweight passengers should buy two seatsB、the government should help produce safer planesC、standards for airplane seat strength should be raisedD、passengers should know how to protect themselvesWhat does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 5 refer to?A、Experts.B、Passengers.C、Investigators.D、The airplane seat makers.We can learn from the text that_________.A、airplane seat makers have taken action nowB、there are few complaints about airplane seatsC、those seated near the overweight may suffer , tooD、only a small number of airplane accidents result from the overweightwhat is the best title for the text?A、Why do passengers Feel Anxious about Flying?B、Will 42% of Americans Be Overweight by 2030?C、When Will the Overweight Enjoy Their Flight?D、Are Airplane Seats Safe Enough for the Overweight?【答案】:【解析】:第6题【阅读理解】阅读理解。
