His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to copy him in every way he could.One day the grandson asked, “Grandpa, I try to read the book just like you, but I don’t understand it, and I forget what I understand as soon as I close the book. What good does readi ng the book do?”The grandpa quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied, “Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water.”The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house. The grandpa laughed and said, “You’ll have to move a little faster next time,” and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again. This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before he returned. Out of breath, he told his grandpa that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, so he wentto get a bucket instead. The grandpa said, “I don’t want a bucket of water; I want a basket of water. You’re just not trying hard enough.” The boy again dipped the basket into the river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandpa the basket was empty again. Out of breath, he said, “Grandpa, it’s useless!”“So, you think it is useless?” the grandpa said, “Look at the basket.”The boy looked at the basket and for the first time he realized that the basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basket and was now clean.“Grandson, that’s what happens when you read the book.

Baskets and BooksD. Reading for Total ChangingCThe Chinese word “Shanzhai” means a small mountain village, but now it becomes an accepted name for fakes (假货), after “Shanzhai Cell-phones” produ ced by smallworkshops in southern China became popular in the mainland market over the past two years.Besides “Shanzhai” electronic products, there are “Shanzhai” movies, “Shanzhai” stars and even a “Shanzhai” Spring Festival Gala (联欢晚会), a copy of the 25-year-old traditional show presented by CCTV on Chinese Lunar New Year’s Eve.“Shanzhai” has become a culture of its own, meaning anything that imitates something famous. In Chongqing, “Shanzhai” version “Bird’s Nest” and “Water Cube” woven by farmers with bamboo attract wide attention from tourists. Both are copies of the famous Olympic buildings in Beijing.A literature critic said that taking the “Shanzhai” Gala as an example, when the traditional CCTV program becomes less and less attractive to the audience, the “Shanzhai” version appears timely to attract people. “Although it is often connected with poor techniques and operation, ‘Shanzhai’ culture meets the psychological needs of common people and could be a comfort to their minds,” he said. To the mainstream (主流的) culture, the rise of “Shanzhai” culture is a challenge and a motivation (动力). People believe different kinds of cultures developing together is a perfect situation and it is for the public to choose.9. The Chinese word “Shanzhai” may have started with ______.A. fake cell-phoneB. electronic productsC. Spring Festival GalaD. Olympic buildings10. According to the passage, “Shanzhai” culture refers to ______.A. the action that a person imitates(模仿) famous peopleB. products with poor techniques and qualityC. anything that imitates something famousD. those similar names to famous brands(品牌)11. We can infer that the mainstream culture ______.A. is held back by “Shanzhai” cultureB. is the c hallenge of “Shanzhai” cultureC. will be replaced by “Shanzhai” cultureD. may develop faster because of the challenge of “Shanzhai” culture12. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. “Shanzhai” culture will definite ly(注定地) disappearB. “Shanzhai” culture takes on life of its ownC. “Shanzhai” culture — the mainstream cultureD. “Shanzhai” culture — the mountain village cultureDPeople realize that, although animals may not have the same intelligence as human beings, they are smart enough to learn certain things.Dogs are extremely useful as companions for blind people. When a dog has been properly trained, he will always lead his blind master in the right direction and keep him out of danger. For example, seeing-eye dogs learn never to cross a busy road when cars are coming, even if their master ordered them to do so.Horses are also able to learn many things. Horses that are used for guard or police duty must learn never to be frightened of noises, traffic, and other disturbances. Racing horses are able to run much faster than other horses, but they are also quite high nervous. Therefore, it is necessary for those people who train them to be very patient and understanding.The moving pictures and television can use trained animals too. Some animals, such as monkeys and foxes, are easy to film. All you have to do is make a trail in front of the camera by dragging something that smells good to the animals over the ground. Big animals, such as lions and tigers, can be photographed as they bound happily back to their families and dinner. If a movie actor is nearby, the well-trained animal will pay no attention to him. However, the audience may imagine that the actor escaped a terrible death by the skin of his teeth.13. Dogs who help blind people must learn .A. to obey all ordersB. to obey only safe ordersC. never to cross roadsD. to cross road when ordered to do so14. Race horses are hard to train because they are .A. faster than other horsesB. smaller than other horsesC. clever than other horseD. more nervous than other horses15. What does “make a trail” mean here in the last paragraph?A. place something to attract the animalB. give the animal a certain taskC. order the animal to do thingsD. follow the animal to hunt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最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Sharon, Aged 22The most important thing to keep in mind when going into high school is to be yourself. Besides, I don‟t know what your middle school w as like, but high school teachers will not care about things such as how much homework you already have in one night. It‟s best to just learn to deal with things and manage your time wisely so you can achieve everything you need to.Frank, Aged 21I think almost every kid feels both nervous and excited before heir first day. You will probably love it. I know I did. You should join some sports or activities that will make your high school experience more enjoyable. Good luck!Eddie, Aged 20When I started high school I was really nervous too, especially since I had been homeschooled all through middle school and didn‟t really know anyone.

I was sitting on the ground with Savannah, a girl I met during the meetings we had when preparing for our trip. We were playing cards after Anna decided to join us. There were 49 of us in me San Jose group, and we would meet up with two other groups in Los Angeles. Totally, we had 147 students and six leaders. The trip was tiring, busy but fun. We learned about different cultures, ate different foods, and met new people. We went to a total of seven different countries in Europe like England, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Belgium, and France. We also had host families (寄宿家庭) in Germany where we spent three days. My host family was the most welcoming, and I also related to them well.We had a great time in Europe and did not know that it was all coming to an end. We learned a lot about its history, like Henry the Eighth and all his six wives. This life-changing trip helped me open my eyes. It was a big lift for me as my wings had been broken over the years because my family situation was not good.

Before long, Max‟s room magically becomes a forest, and he walks to a landwhere monsters (怪物) live. Max isn‟t scared, though, and becomes t he king of the wild things, but after a while, he wants to go home. When Max walks back home, his supper is still hot in his bedroom.Many teachers and professors like this story and use it to help children develop their imaginations. Melina Davis, a professor of education, said she likes how the book contains (包含) a couple of pages that have only pictures on them. “This allows children to shape the story themselves,” she said.The book contains a few larger words. Some parents worry it may confuse (使迷惑) children, but experts (专家) say those words help improve chi ldren‟s reading skills. Davis said the book is well written which helps kids become interested in the story. “The book talks about what all children go through, like …I was naughty (淘气的) but my mommy still loves me‟,” said Davis.The book also encourages children to face their fears. “I think it‟s really good to show that Max is friends with the monsters,”said Davis. “Kids can find out monsters aren‟t always the things under the bed that are going to scare them.

People there spend lots of time in traffic jams (阻塞).Now imagine that every Sunday, main roads in the city were closed to cars and people were invited to wander (闲逛) around the streets. It may sound impossible. But a small group of activists called CicLAvia wants to make this car-free day come true.“Air Pollution is terrible and more and more children are becoming overweight,” said Jonathan Parfrey, a member of CicLAvia. “But building new parks for people to get out of their cars and exercise can be much too expensive. So we want to create public space by using our roads.”This idea isn‟t new. It got its start in the Colombian City of Bogotá 30 years ago. Bogotá is a city with heavy traffic and air pollution. Every Sunday main streets are shut down to cars in Bogotá. CicLAvia wants to follow that success in Los Angeles. Although it may seem like a great challenge in such a city, the members of CicLAvia feel hopeful about it. They are taking steps to make it happen. And a charity group has agreed to provide $20,000 to help this event. And the event may happen this year.32.
