Usually, his mind drifted(漂泊)--- to playing outside, to his dog Maxie, or to the ants that lived near his family’s garden shed. Willard was especially curious about those ants.Willard noticed that the ants were coming and going from a hole in the dirt. One ant was carrying a piece of grass, and Willard thought, “He’s trying to build a house, so I am going to help him!” Willard constructed a little building by using small sharp pieces of wood. Then he put some sugar inside to encourage the ants to move in. when they did, Willard built more houses.At school, Willard still struggled, but now he know could do something special. He went home and created tiny furniture for the ant houses. He even built an ant school.At age nine, Willard began carving(雕刻)faces on toothpicks. He discovered that his ability improved when he held his breath as he worked. When he showed his mother the carved faces, she said, “This is what you do well. You should work hard and can be the best in the world.”When he quit school at age 15 to help support his family, Willard still spent his spare time carving. His confidence grew as more people appreciated his talent.Finally, he quit his factory job to let his dream of becoming one of the best artists in the world come true.

In the 1800s, a strange sight began to be reported by farmers. Then in the 1970s, this strange event began to happen more and more often. People traveled for miles to stand in the fields and take photos of something they couldn't easily explain. What were they looking at? It was the crop circles — large and complex designs set into the middle of ordinary farm field. No one could understand how these huge designs were made.Crop circles are found most often in fields of wheat, corn, or rice. They are usually created overnight, although some are reported to have appeared during the day. They have been seen all around the world, in more than 70 different countries. Scientists have found that the plants inside a crop circle are drier than the ones outside it. The plant stems (茎) are bent and not broken in most crop circles, and sometimes the soil in the design has more iron than the soil outside of the design. Unfortunately, these facts alone do not help scientists answer their questions about crop circles. These facts only make them more mysterious.Some people believe crop circles are made by UFOs (Unidentified Flying Objects) landing in farm fields. Others think aliens are leaving us messages in the beautiful designs. Still others believe Earth energy under the ground makes plants bend over in designs. Some people say they actually made the crop circles with special equipment. Scientists have found some crop circles that are certainly made by people, but they are usually a little different from other crop circles. So who makes crop circles and why they make them can't be explained to this very day. 【1】It's generally thought that crop circles _____.A．have very frightening designsB．happen in the same placesC．are found in terrible placesD．are made during the night【2】What happens to the paints inside the crop circles?A．They are broken.B．They die very soon.C．They are bent.D．They need little water.【3】Which of the following have the scientists proved?A．Earth energy is one reason for crop circles' appearance.B．UFOs help create some crop circles.C．There actually are crop circles made by aliens.D．Some crop circles are man-made.【4】What is the best title for the text?A．The History of Crop CirclesB．Different Designs of Crop CirclesC．Crop Circles: The Unsolved MysteryD．Crop Circles: The Great Influence on Farms4.We are all time travelers on a journey into the future. However, we are not tourists with guides who can tell us just what lies ahead. Instead, we are explorers in an unknown area.In our personal lives, we often feel the unknown in our future when we start college, take a new job, or open a business. We never can be sure what will happen to us. But the great explorers of the past would tell us that we have a better chance of succeeding if we prepare ourselves as well as possible.Though those explorers are not here to advise us personally, we have descriptions of their expeditions(探险), and from these we can draw the lessons they would have offered for our journey into the unknown future. Reading records of great expeditions, we notice that the explorers prepared very carefully for their journeys. Their success depended on having the right equipment, the right supplies, the right teammates, and the right training.So the first lesson of the great explorers is: Prepare for what you will face in the future. That may seem obvious, yet many people today see no point in preparing or even thinking about the future. “Let’s not worry about the future until we get there,” they say. The great explorers would have no use for such a person. Only a fool would imagine that problems will sit patiently waiting until we find a way to clear them up. However, problems may rush upon us at the worst possible moment, and our very survival can depend on how well we have prepared for them Good preparation can work for us today as we plan how to deal with what we have to face. The well –prepared student does well on exams; the well-prepared job hunter gets hired. Most of us may think we have learned this lesson long ago, but we often seem to forget.【1】Why were the great explorers able to succeed?A．They had much knowledge.B．They were extremely brave.C．They made careful preparations.D．They read stories about expeditions.【2】They under lined word “they” in Paragraph 4 refers to those who .A．respect great explorersB．like making expeditionsC．always worry about the futureD．refuse to prepare for the future【3】The author describes the fool to show that we should .A．avoid doing tasks with foolsB．be calm at the worst momentsC．get ready for possible problemsD．find ways to deal with problems【4】Many people today are likely to forget that .A．it is important to learn how to predict the futureB．good preparation may lead to a good futureC．hard-working students do well on examsD．a business needs well-prepared workers【5】The author expresses his opinion in the text .A．by using the examples of explorersB．by following the order of timeC．by presenting research findingsD．by introducing a practical method四、其他The National Health Service (NHS) 【1】(start) in 1948 to provide free health care for everyone. Before that, all doctors charged fees, so only those【2】could afford them got medical care. Today, the NHS is still free. Nobody has to pay when they go and see a doctor or when they need an operation【3】any other kind of hospital【4】(treat). It’s all paid for by taxes. However, there are lots of problems【5】the present system. People don’t like paying high【6】(tax) and so they often have to wait a long time before they get to see a doctor. Some people have to wait over a year【7】they can have an operation. Some things are charged for now, like prescriptions (处方), eye tests and dental checkups. Thousands of doctors and nurses leave every year, complaining that they do too much work but earn【8】(little) money than they deserve. Some people think【9】system should be changed. They would like everybody【10】(take) out health insurance and would like some parts of the service to be privatized.五、其他Over the years, the image I had of my father was formed from all the stories I had heard. He was 27 when he died. I was only a few months old. A single photograph of me in his arms is the only evidence I have that we ever met.When I was young, there was a children’s book called The Happy Family. Its image of the family was typical(典型的)of the time. Dad worked all day long at the office, Mom baked in the kitchen, and brother and sister always had friends sleeping over(再别人家里过夜). The family in the book looked nothing like my family, but, luckily, in the way my Aunt Marion read it to me, the story became highly entertaining.My aunt was the one who played baseball with me and went horseback riding with me. She helped me find my first job and asked her male friends at work to take me to the father-son dinners that marked the end of every sports seasons. When the time came, she convinced the elderly man next door to teach me how to shave(刮胡子).When I was 15, she gave me lessons on how to drive.Aunt Marion never got married. This meant that she was free to spend her spare time taking care of me.But being Aunt Marion, she didn’t and still doesn’t give herself much praise. Unless forced to stand in front in family photos, she’s always in the background, and she doesn’t think her efforts have made a difference. So every June for the past 40 years, with growing gratitude to my Aunt Marion, I’ve sent her a Father’s Day card.【1】Where did the author grow up? (no more than 5 words)_______________________________________________________________________________________【2】How did the author feel when listening to his aunt reading The Happy Family? (1 word)_______________________________________________________________________________________ 【3】What was Aunt Marion trying to do according to Paragraph 4? (no more than 10 words)_______________________________________________________________________________________ 【4】What does the underlined word “gratitude” in the last paragraph probably mean? (1 word)_______________________________________________________________________________________ 【5】Who do you admire most in your family? Why? (no more than 25 words)_______________________________________________________________________________________六、书面表达假定你是李津，你的笔友Chris打算暑假到你的家乡天津旅游，来信向你询问有关天津这座城市的基本信息，请用英语给Chris回信，内容包括：（1）表示对Chris的欢迎；（2）介绍家乡的的基本情况（天气、饮食及文化等）；（3）介绍一些知名的旅游景点。

三、阅读理解
My name is Wang Kun. Ever since middle school, my sister Wang Wei and I have dreamed about taking a great bike trip. Two years ago she bought an expensive mountain bike and then she persuaded me to buy one. Last year, she visited our cousins, Dao Wei and Yu Hang at their college in Kunming. They are Dai and grew up in western Yunnan Province near the Lancang River, the Chinese part of the river that is called the Mekong River in other countries. Wang Wei soon got them interested in cycling too. After graduating from college, we finally got the chance to take a bike trip. I asked my sister, “Where are we going?” It was my sister who first had the idea to cycle along the entire Mekong River from where it begins to where it ends. Now she is planning our schedule for the trip.

However, I believe learning that sometimes you lose is just as important.There is a school of thought that if children are playing for fun, they should not keep score, which seems a bit backwards to me. Participation is great, but let’s also give them a goal to reach.Sport has winners and losers, which is an important part of its make-up. I believe the greatest joy you can get from sport is when you play hard and produce a win, when you and your teammates work together for your goal.I am a competitive person, but I don’t think you’re ever too young to start learning that putting effort into something can result in reward. I’m not saying winning should be the be-all and end-all of the experience for children, but it should at least be a choice.Michael Jordan once said. “I’ve missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. Twenty-six times I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”Without learning how it feels to win, and just as importantly how it feels to lose, we will bring up children who expect life to be easy. Life is not easy and I believe the sooner children learn that, the better off they are in the long run. But, there does need to be a balance. There are parents who always want to see their children win and will punish them when they make mistakes.I believe the key is to teach children that they should give their all in an effort to be victorious. It does need to be fun or they won’t be interested, but they should be graceful (优雅的) in failure. Australian tennis player Nick Kyrgios is an example of someone who appears to have gone too far the other way, always in the news for his terrible attitude on court.36．Which of the following will the author agree with?A．Fewer kids play sport nowadays. B．It is participation that matters most. C．Competitive sport is important for kids. D．Kids often have unrealistic goals in sport.37．What does the author want to show by using Jordan’s words?A．Life lies in sport. B．Nothing is impossible.C．Great hopes make great men. D．Failure is the mother of success. 38．What will winning and losing in sport teach children?A．The difficulty of life. B．The role of hard work.C．The power of teamwork. D．The need for dreaming big.39．What does the author think of Nick Kyrgios?A．He is not skilled. B．He is not graceful.C．He sets a good example for kids. D．He pays little attention to success.While Romano’s classmates were beginning their college life, the 19-year-old Croatian young man had different dreams. In Croatia, taking a gap year is not as common as in other countries, but Romano decided to take a break for a year or two after high school and try volunteering in Africa.Upon arrival in Arusha, Tanzania, Romano found a volunteering project through an organization. Now he helps poor children and teaches them English and math. These children are not abandoned. They come from low-income families and any help is welcome. There is no soap or running water in the school, and to learn English, the children depend on volunteers because there are not enough qualified teachers.“They don’t have much, they are poor, but honest and happy, because they are not aware that there may be something better out there for them. As I was lecturing, I saw the materials they used for learning: worn-out pencils, one eraser for 20 children, torn and printed notebooks, and not to mention clothes and shoes. I will only tell you that uniforms are worn to conceal（掩饰）their clothing and thus to mask material inequality,” says Romano, who was therefore encouraged to launch a charity action to collect donations for children’s necessities.Romano believes that every child has the right to the basics, including education.It is for this reason that he wants to help these little ones. “Now I realize how privileged I am in life just because I was born on another continent. I learned to appreciate more what I have and manage without the basics. As a result, I met a different culture, tested my limits and looked at things from a different perspective — a gratitude perspective,” concludes Romano, hoping that little by little, both he and other volunteers will contribute to positive change through their work. 40．According to the text, what is the education like in Croatia?A．Before going to university, Croatian students must have dreams.B．The students have to take a year or two off after high school.C．Taking a gap year is a common occurrence in Croatia.D．It is not allowed to take a gap year during school in general.41．Why did Romano come to Arusha?A．To prepare for his college life.B．To help children there as a volunteer.C．To earn money as a part-time teacher.D．To promote an educational program.42．What do we know about the children that Romano teaches?A．They are too poor to be happy.B．They all have an incomplete family.C．They have no local English teachers.D．They know little about the outside world.43．What does the underlined word “mask” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Hide.B．Reduce.C．Create.D．Remove.44．What did Romano learn from his experience?A．All children should have access to higher education.B．All children should try their best to go to colleges.C．He should treasure more his life and feel grateful.D．He should work hard in college to be more powerful.In the middle of the twentieth century, medical research showed that there was a clear connection between cardiovascular (心血管的)disease or CVD and lifestyle. This awareness led to a change in attitudes towards health care. Health experts began to stress the idea that people could take control of their own health instead of relying on medical help. People listened.Many people are no longer depending on doctors for advice and treatment; instead they are focusing on preventive measures and taking responsibility for their own health. A greater understanding of the connection between diet and health has led many to reduce or even reject food high in fat from their diets.Similarly, people are also becoming more serious about reducing stress. An increasing number of people understand that frequent aerobic (有氧的)exercise like walking, running, and swimming reduces stress.These changes in attitudes and behavior have had a positive effect. Deaths from CVD first began to fall in western countries in the 1960s, and this trend continues today. In the United States the death rate from this disease fell by more than 35 percent between 1980 and 1997 and then by another 26 percent between 1999 and 2005. In 2010, 6 percent of adults suffered from some form of CVD, down from 6.7 percent in 2006.However, the news about CVD is not all positive. Despite the fall in death rates, CVD is still much too frequent in most western countries. CVD has also become much more common in developing countries, with 80 percent of all CVD deaths now occurring there.What are governments doing to fight this terrible disease? The global effort to inform people of the benefits of a healthy lifestyle continues. Governments are also introducing specific changes aimed at reducing unhealthy lifestyles. In Mauritius a government program encouraged the nation to switch from palm oil, high in fat, to healthier soybean oil.45．What does the underlined word “ change” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A．A decreasing number of people are dying from CVD．B．People understand the need for an expert doctor.C．Medical science can be used to cure CVD．D．People take better care of their health.46．What are more people doing to reduce stress?A．Exercising on a regular basis.B．Focusing on new medical research.C．Seeking treatment from their doctors.D．Removing food high in fat.47．How does the author show the effects of these changes?A．By giving examples. B．By stating arguments.C．By listing numbers. D．By providing research results. 48．Why did the government of Mauritius encourage people to eat soybean oil instead of palm oil?A．Soybean oil is cheaper than palm oil.B．Palm oil is less healthy than soybean oil.C．Soybean oil is easier to digest than palm oil.D．Palm oil is harder to produce than soybean oil.49．What would be the best title for the text?A．Causes of CVDB．Changing patterns of CVDC．Changing attitudes towards CVDD．Treatment breakthroughs in the field of CVD四、阅读表达阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题Eleven-year-old Ruby Kate has long been close to older folks. Her mother, Amanda Chitsey, works at nursing homes in northwest Arkansas, and Ruby Kate often goes with her in the summer. “I’ve never found them scary at all, so I’m able to just go up to them and ask if they need anything,” she says.Last May, Ruby Kate noticed a resident named Pearl staring out a window. She seemed sad. “What are you looking at?” Ruby Kate asked. Pearl said she was watching her dog being led away by his new owner after a visit. Pearl didn’t know when she would see her dog again.Ruby Kate and Amanda asked around and discovered that the nursing home didn’t allow residents to have dogs and Pearl couldn’t afford to pay anyone to look after hers. The Chitseys also learned that many nursing home residents are unable to afford even the smallest luxuries. So Ruby Kate decided to do something about it.She started by asking residents what three things they wanted most in the world. “That’s a lot simpler than going, ‘Hey, what do you want?’” she explains. “They can understand you better.” Amanda worried that people would ask for cars and other things an 11-year-old wouldn’t be able to provide. Instead, they asked for chocolate bars, McDonald’s fries, pants that fit properly, and even just a prayer.“It broke me as a human,” Amanda says. “We left the nursing home that day and went straight to a store and bought as many items as we could.” Using their own money, the Chitseys granted the wishes of about 100 people in three months.Then they started asking for donations, set up a GoFundMe page, Three Wishes for Ruby’s Residents, and raised more than $250,000 in five months. One of their new goals is to set up a communal laptop in one nursing home in each state.Ruby Kate doesn’t plan to stop there. “I consider kindness to be my hobby,” she says, “and I’m very good at it.”50．What makes Ruby Kate have a close relationship with older people? (No more than 10 words)51．Why was Pearl’s dog taken away from her? (No more than 15 words)52．What are paragraphs 4 and 5 mainly about? (No more than 10 words)53．How do you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph? (No more than 10 words)54．What do you think of Ruby Kate? Give your reasons. (No more than 20 words) 五、建议信55．假如你是李津，你的加拿大的朋友 Tim 在邮件中谈到他们那里也出现了很多新型冠状病毒肺炎的病例，他有些紧张，并感觉网络信息的传播加剧了人们的恐慌。

People have always been scared of sharks,but Jaws made things worse.It made people frightened of sharks,especially of the great white shark.Many people who saw the film started to believe that sharks were bad animals that ate humans.Some people stopped swimming in the sea,afraid of the horrible creature from the film.Other people started fishing for sharks,killing as many as they could.At that time,nobody cared if sharks were killed,or how many were killed.People just wanted them killed.After 1975，the number of large sharks around America fell quickly,and soon fell around the world.This was not only due to fear of sharks,but also finning.Finning is a type of fishing where sharks are caught and their fins cut off.The sharks are thrown back into the sea where they die slowly and painfully.The fins are used in shark fin soup.Finning kills millions of sharks a year. Finning would have an unexpected effect upon Peter Benchley,the man who wrote the book the film Jaws was based on.In 1980，Benchley was diving when he came across an awful sight.It was an area where fishermen were finning,and the sea floor was covered with dead sharks.Benchley saw sharks being killed and this caused a deep change in him.He came to see people as a danger to sharks,rather than the other way round.From that day on,he fought to protect sharks.He admitted that his book was wrong about sharks' behavior. "Sharks don't target humans," he said.Experts have proved that sharks do not see people as food,and theyattack us by mistake.Only around six people are killed by sharks every year.Fortunately,not everyone who watched the film Jaws became afraid of sharks - some became interested in understanding them.Today,as we learn more about sharks.more people than ever want to protect them from extinction.17.Which of the following is true of the 1975 film Jaws？______A. A woman swam gracefully along with a shark in the opening sceneB. The film challenged people's long-held belief of the great white sharkC. Many awards were given to the film due to the frightening killing scenesD. The shark was described as a cruel and dangerous animal to swimmers18.What did people begin to do after they saw the film？______A. Some became more fascinated in swimming in the seaB. Some were eager to fish sharks for their delicious meatC. Some killed as many sharks as possible for no reasonD. Some called on others to protect the endangered sharks19.What happens to a shark when it is finned？______A. It will be served onto the table as soupsB. It will suffer a lot and die slowly in the seaC. Its fins will grow again after some timeD. Its fins will be thrown away into the ocean20.What caused a deep change to Peter Benchley？______A. Seeing the finning scene and many dead sharksB. Joining the fishermen who were killing and finningC. Writing the book the film Jaws was based onD. Knowing that sharks do not target and eat humans21.What is the author's purpose in writing the passage？______A. To inform people about sharks and recommend the film and the book to themB. To describe the cruel finning scene and prove that sharks are dangerous animalsC. To explain people's misunderstanding of sharks and raise awareness of sharkprotectionD. To criticize Peter Benchley's misleading description of sharks in his book and advocatethe protection of sharksBPicking up free newspaper at the Tube station,I see the title "Hot!Hot!Hot!".Today,the temperature in London is expected to reach 30 plus degrees.The average high temperature in July is only 22 degrees,so over 30 is not usual for London.It's going to be awful on the central line with no air conditioning.Why did they have to invent the Tube before air conditioning？It's just typical that my journey is on one of the oldest lines,as well as one of the deepest.It's the hottest on the whole tube system.Sure enough,going down the stairs and onto the platform is like jumping into a volcano that's erupting.This,however,is nothing compared to the train.Because there's no air conditioning,the temperature inside the train can reach 35 degrees!It's lovely at the beach,but not so when you are wearing a suit and in a crowd of passengers.I'm sure the passenger next to me and I are melting and becoming one.I had bacon and eggs for breakfast and now I'm feeling a bit sick - I hope I can make it to bank station.I will avoid the feeling by thinking about work.I work in a tall,glass building.One very hot summer,the sun reflected off it and melted cars park below.Will this happen again today？Yes,each summer in London definitely seems hotter than the last.I suddenly feel a bit scared.Perhaps now is the time to start planning for the future.I should probably put my flat on the market and buy a boat.That way,when the Thames rises and there is a flood in London,I'll still be able to get to work.But wait!Would I still have a workplace to go？My office is only on the third floor of the building,so quite low.I'll speak with my manager about moving to the top floor.Most importantly,I will need to learn to swim!I would join a beginner swimming class immediately.Then I'll be able to survive even when the tall buildings are flooded.Looking through my newspaper,I'm shocked by photos showing that a hurricane in Asia has destroyed a town.What's more,heavy rain in Eastern Europe has caused landslides,and the heat across the Southern Europe has caused forest fires.Experts say this bad weather has occurred due to climate change.News like this makes me feel nervous.Now that it's hard to avoid disaster on Earth,perhaps I should start thinking about moving to space."The next station is bank!" comes the announcement.That's my destination.Stepping out of the station with a heavy heart,I suddenly feel a fresh wind on my face.Well,maybe I have been worrying too much.After all,it's only 30 degrees outside!22.What is true about the Central Line in Paragraph 1？______A. The Central Line is one of the oldest Tube lines in London.B. The temperature in the Central Line is between 22 to 30 degrees.C. The air conditioning of the Central Line makes passengers feel awful.D. The Central Line is the hottest because it is the deepest line of the tube system.23.What is the meaning of the underlined part in Paragraph 2？______A. The author tried to endure the sick feeling on his / her own.B. The author wanted to taste bacon and eggs at the bank station.C. The author was thinking about saving his / her money in the bank.D. The author was worried about the hot environment at the station.24.Which of the following is a plan for the "coming" flood in London？______A. The author will buy a flat which is far away from the Thames.B. The author will try to persuade the manager to move to the top floor.C. Tie author will improve his / her swimming skills to join a competition.D. The author will buy a boat from which he / she can jump into the water.25.What do the hurricane,heavy rain and the heat mentioned in Paragraph 4 show？______A. The climate in different regions on Earth varies greatly.B. The natural disasters can be avoided by moving to space.C. Bad weathers happen more frequently due to climate change.D. The author is reading the weather forecast section carefully.26.What is the author's purpose in writing the passage？______A. To complain about the London Tube.B. To warn people about the danger of London being flooded.C. To explain why summers in London are getting hotter and hotter.D. To express his worries about the dangers of extreme weather conditions.CPre - school children who spend time together take on one another's personalities, "new research has found.The study shows that environment plays a key role in shaping people's personalities.While genetics still forms the central part of the human psyche（心理），the research finds that personality traits（特征）are "contagious" （传染的）among children. " Our finding flies in the face of common assumptions that personality can't be changed," said Dr.Jennifer Neal,co-author of the study.The researchers studied the personalities and social networks of two pre-school classes for a full school year.One of the classes was a set of three-year-olds,and the other a set offour-year-olds.Children whose friends were hard-working or outgoing gradually took on thesepersonality traits over time.Psychology expert Dr.Emily Dublin said kids are having a far bigger effect on each other than people may realize.The new study is not the first to explore the contagious effects of personality traits.A 2015 psychology study found that rudeness at work can be contagious as it travels from person to person "like a disease".The study found that seeing a boss being rude to an employee was enough to cause people to be rude to those around them.The researchers questioned 6，000 people on the social "climate" in their workplaces,which included offices,hotels and restaurants.They found 75 percent of those who took part said they had been treated rudely at least once in the past year.And the study also suggests that merely seeing other people being subjected to rudeness made it more likely that a person would treat their colleagues in the same way.Rudeness could include leaving someone off an invite to a company event,sending unkind emails,finding fault with others or failing to give praise.Dr.Torkelson believes companies need to be more aware of the harm that rudeness in the workplace can do as it can damage the working environment.She said better training could help to fight against the problem.27.What does the underlined part "flies in the face of" in Paragraph 1 mean？______A. Leads to.B. Goes against.C. Results from.D. Agrees with.28.According to Paragraph 2，who have the greatest impact on children's personality？______A. Their friends.B. Their parents.C. The researchers.D. The psychologists.29.Which of the following is considered rude at the workplace？______A. Ignoring the faults of co-workers.B. Not sending emails to workmates.C. Seeking praise from colleagues and bosses.D. Not inviting a colleague to a company party.30.What is the passage mainly about？______A. One's personality is hard to change.B. One's personality is shaped by genes.C. One's personality traits can spread to others.D. One's personality traits can change overnight.31.This passage is most probably taken from ______ .A. a school textbookB. a study guideC. a science reportD. a technical journal四、完形填空（本大题共20小题，共30.0分）A young school teacher had a dream.In his dream,an angel appeared and said,"You will be given a child who will grow up to become a world(32).How will you prepare him so that he will realize his (33)，develop both his confidence and sensitivity,be open-minded,and strong in character？In short,what kind of education will you (34) so that he can become one of the world's truly great leaders？"The young teacher(35) in a cold sweat.It had never(36) to him before-any one of his present or future students could be the person (37) in his dream.Was he preparing them to rise to any position which they may (38)？He thought,"How might my teaching change if I knew that one of my students were this person？" A plan was (39) developed in his mind.This student would need experience as well as instructions.He would need to know how to solve problems of various kinds.He would need to know the value of lifelong learning in order to keep a curious and (40) mind.His teaching(41).Every young person who walked through his(42) became,for him,a future world leader.He saw each one,not as they were,but as they could be.He(43) the best from his students,yet tempered（使缓和）it with sympathy and assistance.He taught each one as if the future of the world depended on his instructions.After many years,a woman he taught(44) to a position of world fame.He realized thatshe(45)have been the child described in his dream.She was not only one of his(46)，but rather his daughter.Of all the (47) teachers in her life,her father was the best.Children are(48) messages we send to a time and place we will never see.Believe that one child's(49)may depend upon the difference only you can make,and something remarkablewill(50)，for no young person will ever be(51) to you again.And you will never be the same.32.

He’s been cleaning in Hickerson Primary School for 15 years. His tall figure always bends as he sweeps the floors. Unlike most, James is a deaf, living in a world of silence, unable to hear the noises around him. But he never complains, for his heart is louder than any sound.Every day, James arrives early, armed with his broom and a smile. He cleans our classrooms, hallways, and playgrounds with a dedication (奉献) that is truly inspiring. Even though he can’t hear our laughter or conversations, he feels the warmth of our school community through our smiles and greetings.On the day Anthony turned 60, the school wanted to give him a special surprise for him. The children gathered around him, singing “Happy Birthday” with all their hearts. James’s face lit up with a big smile, tears of joy in his eyes. He couldn’t hear the song, but he felt the love and appreciation in the air.Scott, secretary of the school said, “The children love and respect Mr. James. They give him high fives in the halls, and he even teaches them sign language. Today he has put smiles on faces all around the world.”James teaches us a valuable lesson: no matter what challenges life throws at us, we can overcome them with kindness and willpower. His actions remind us to appreciate the simple things in life and to be grateful for the people who make our world a better place.Thank you, James, for being our silent hero and an inspiration to us all.41．James Anthony is ______.A．a guard B．a student C．a secretary D．a cleaner 42．When did James Anthony get a special surprise?A．On his sixtieth birthday.B．On his fiftieth birthday.C．On his fifteenth birthday.D．On his sixteenth birthday.43．Why did James Anthony cry as the kids finished singing the song?A．Because he lost his job.B．Because he was deeply moved.C．Because the kids didn’t like him.D．Because he couldn’t hear the kids. 44．According to Scott, we can learn that ______.A．Anthony used to be a good teacherB．the kids love and respect Mr. JamesC．the kids often help Anthony clean the halls.D．Anthony always greets the kids and teachers by singing songs45．Which may be the best title for the passage?A．A Famous Teacher B．Lovely KidsC．A Special Birthday Gift D．An American SchoolSometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they are meant to be there… to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson or help figure out who you are or who you want to become.You never know who these people may be, but when you lock eyes with them, you know that every moment they will affect your life in a profound way.And sometimes things happen to you at the time that may seem horrible, painful and unfair, but upon reflection, you realize that without overcoming those hardships, you would have never realized your potential, strength, willpower or heart.Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by means of good luck Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and absolute stupidity all happen to test the limits of your soul.Without these small tests, life would be like a smooth, straight, flat road to nowhere, safe and comfortable but meaningless. The people you meet affect your life. The successes and failures that you experience can create who you are, and the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most important ones.If someone hurts you, betrays (背叛) you or breaks your heart, forgive them because they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being careful with whom you open your heart to. If someone loves you, love them back, not only because they love you, but because they are teaching you to love and open your heart and eyes to little things.Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that youpossibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people you have never talked to before, and actually listen. Hold your head up because you have every right to. Tell yourself you are a unique individual and believe in yourself, for if you don't believe in yourself, no one else will believe in you.46．Paragraph 1. tells us that ______.A．your purpose in life means to help othersB．you know someone the moment you meet himC．you will never know who will come into your lifeD．your life is sometimes influenced deeply by someone47．According to the passage, what can help you realize your strength?A．Serving some sort of purpose.B．Overcoming hardships.C．Locking eyes with others.D．Creating some wonders.48．It can be inferred from Paragraph 4 that ______.A．everything is an experience for you B．there is no good luck in lifeC．nothing happens by chance D．there is a limit to your love49．What does the underlined word “they” refer to in Paragraph 5?A．The bad experiences.B．The small tests.C．The successes.D．The people.50．According to the passage, you are advised to ______.A．set a higher life goal B．open your heart to othersC．treat yourself as a great person D．live everyday to the full阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
