During it, the boys study things 37 math and science as well as learn to tie knots (结),fire gunsand 38 other practical things.One of the important things they are 39 is how to swim. In the old days, many sailors were 40 to swim, but now it is rare to find one that cannot. 41 one school for sailors, the swimming instructor was good. 42 had never had a boy whom he had 43 to teach to swim by the time the course ended. One year, however, 44 was one particular boy on the training course 45 seemed quite unable to learn to 46 . The instructor tried giving him extra lessons, but he had 47 success at all, whatever he did. In the end, as the time drew near for the 48 to end, he had to admit defeat.One day, he called the boy 49 after the swimming lesson and said, “John, I have tried 50 to teach you to swim, but I have failed51 the first time in my life.

Young people and their parents don’t understand each other. The world has always kept changing. During the second century after Christ a wise man said, “Bury me on my face because in a litt le while everything will be turned upside down.”There has always been a gap between generations, but more people talk about it now. Old Mr. Ellis thinks he understands what has happened.“When I was a boy, I thought the world was a beautiful place. My life was very pleasant. But when I was older, I learned about people who were treated badly, people who didn’t have enough to eat. I wanted to help them, and I married a girl who wanted to help them, too. We went to meetings and talked a lot, but it didn’t seem to make much difference. ”“Our children grew up in a world at war. They didn’t know when the fighting would stop. They wanted their children to havenice clothes and toys. They didn’t want to think about the future. They thought nothing could be done a bout it.”“Now I have grandchildren, and they have their own ideas. They are trying to make the world better. They are trying to help other people. They’re making people listen to them. I am proud of their generation.”56. The wise man mentioned in the text told people to bury him on his face so thatwhen everything is turned upside down he will _____.A. lie on his stomachB. lie on his backC. stand quietlyD. sit in peace57.

Which generation is/was more efficient in making the world better one?A. Mr. Ellis’ generation.B. His children’s generation.C. His grandchild ren’s generation.D. None of the above.59. What is the writer’s attitude towards the generation gap?A. Unacceptable.B. Awful.C. Funny.D. Common.BThe film follows the comedic and eventful (变故多的) journeys of twofish –Marlin and his son Nemo. In the colorful and warm tropical waters of the Great Barrier Reef (大堡礁), a clown fish named Marlin lives safely and hidden in a quiet corner with his only son, Nemo. Fearful of the ocean and its unpredictable risks, he struggles to protect his son. Nemo, like all young fish, is eager to explore the mysterious reef. Marlin and Nemo become separated in the Great Barrier Reef when Nemo is unexpectedly taken far from home and pushed into a fish tank in a dentist’s office overlooking Sydney harbor.In his quest, Marlin is joined by Dory, a Regal Blue Tang fish, who has the worst short-term memory and biggest heart in the entire ocean. The overly cautious father begins on a dangerous journey to rescue his son – who plans a few daring plans of his own to return safely home. As the two fish continue on their journey, going through uncountable dangers, Dory’s optimism continually forces Marlin to find the courage to take risks and overcome his fears. In doing so, Marlin gains the ability to trust and believe, like Dory, that things will work out in the end.Struggling against the difficulties and dangers, father and son’s fateful（灾难性的）separation ends in triumph. Marlin finds himself the unlikely hero on this epic journey. And the once-fearful Marlin becomes a true hero in the eyes of his son, and the entire ocean.60.

Websters have made good safe and interesting toys for more than a hundred years. Now we sell them, and children play with them,in countries from new Zealand to Norway, and from Japan to Brazil. We are looking for someone to sell our toys in the Far East. He (She) will be between the ages of thirty and forty. He will already have some years of selling in world markets behind him. He will speak good English and at least one other language of the Far East.The person we are looking for will live in Singapore, and work in our office there but he will travel for up to six months in other countries in one year.

So he put forty-six African bees with some Brazilian bees. The bees bred and made a new kind of bee. But the new bees were a mistake. They did not want to make more honey. They wanted to attack. Then, by accident, twenty-six African bees escaped and bred with the Brazilian bees outside.Scientists could not control the problem. The bees spread. They went from Brazil to Venezuela. Then they went to Central America. Now they are in North America. They travel about 390 miles a year. Each group of bees, or colony (群体), grows four times a year. This means one million new colonies every five years.Why are people afraid of killer bees? People are afraid for two reasons. First, the bees sting (刺痛、蜇) many more times than a normal bee. Killer bees can sting sixty times a minute non-stop for two hours. Second, killer bees attack in groups. Four hundred bee stings can kill a person.Already several hundred people are dead. Now killer bees are in Texas. In a few years they will spread all over the United States. People can do nothing but wait.68.

Because they sting more and attack in groups.C. Because they won’t make any honey.D. Because each group of bees grows four times a year.EHeavier people are more likely to be killed or seriously injured in car accidents, than lighter people, according to new research.That could mean car designers will have to build in new safety features. In the US, car makers have already had to redesign air bags so they inflates (膨胀) to lower pressures, making them less of a danger to smaller women and children.A study carried out in Seattle, Washington, looked at more than 26,000 people who had been involved in car crashes, and found that heavier people were at far more risk. People weighing between 100 and 119 kilograms are almost two-and-a-half times as likely to die in a crash as people weighing less than 60 kilograms.While they do not yet know why this is the case, it is well worth studying, says Charles Mock, a doctor in Seattle, who led the research team. He thinks one answer may be for safety authorities (当局) to use heavier crash-test dummies (假人) whentesting cars as safe to drive.The reasons for the higher injury and death rates are far from clear. Mock says that the inside of the car might not be suitably designed for heavy people. Besides, obese (肥胖的) people, with health problems such as high blood pressure or other diseases, could be finding it tougher to recover from injury.Richard Kent, an expert at the University of Virginia, thinks the new research has shown a connection between obesity and serious injury or death.People who are obese might also be at risk because seat belts do not hold them as safely in a crash.72. In USA air bags _____.A. are not designed for thin peopleB. might hurt smaller women or childrenC. are being replaced by new onesD. don’t have enough pressure inside73. Which of the following has no connection with obesity?A. Higher injury and death rate in traffic accidents.B. More health problems.C. Serious injury and death in life.D. Difficulty in recovering from a traffic injury.74. The reason why heavy people get injured or killed more easily in a traffic accident _____.A. is not clearly known yetB. is clearly known to expertsC. lies in the safety beltD. lies in the air bag75. What’s the main idea of the text?A. Heavy people and light people.B. More heavier people than lighter peopleC. Obesity and risk in driving.D. Obesity and traffic accidents。

The author is a professional storyteller and this book is full of fun, and has great illustrations.Book 4: Cherry and Olive——By Benjamin Lacombe32 pages, US$16.95Children's books can quickly take little readers into new worlds, such as the big city, 1930s Georgia, or outer space.This book takes us on a little trip to some European capitals.Cherry is fat and likes books, and she has few friends until she meets a SharPei puppy(沙皮狗)．She names it Olive.Through it she finds confidence and friendship.But what will happen when its owner returns?1．What do we know about the fly in Book 1?A．She is honest but stubborn.B．She is stupid but interesting.C．She is brave and ambitious.D．She is loyal and courageous.2．Whose book is recommended if you are interested in European cities?A．Doreen Cronin.B．Andrea Beaty.C．Janice N．Harrington.D．Benjamin Lacombe.3．The books mentioned above are for ________.A．children B．teachersC．parents D．ArchitectsBBenjamin West, the father of American painting, showed his talent for art when he was only six years of age．But he did not know about brushes before a visitor told him he needed one．In those days, a brush was made from camel's hair．There were no camels nearby．Benjamin decided that cat hair would work instead．He cut some fur from the family cat to make a brush.The brush did not last long．Soon Benjamin needed more fur．Before long, the cat began to look ragged (蓬乱)．His father said that the cat must be sick．Benjamin was forced to admit what he had been doing.The cat's lot was about to improve. That year, one of Benjamin's cousins, Mr．Pennington, came to visit．He was impressed with Benjamin's drawings．When he went home, he sent Benjamin a box of paint and some brushes．He also sent six engravings (版画)by an artist．These were the first pictures and first real paint and brushes Benjamin had ever seen．In 1747，when Benjamin was nine years old，Mr．Pennington returned for another visit．He was amazed at what Benjamin had done with his gift．Heasked Benjamin's parents if he might take the boy to Philadelphia for a visit.In the city, Mr．Pennington gave Benjamin materials for creating oil paintings．The boy began a landscape (风景) painting．William Williams, a wellknown painter, came to see him work．Williams was impressed with Benjamin and gave him two classic books on painting to take home．The books were long and dull．Benjamin could read only a little, having been a poor student．But he later said，“Those two bo oks were my companions by day, and under my pillow at night.” While it is likely that he understood very little of the books, they were his introduction to classical paintings．The nineyearold boy decided then that he would be an artist.4．What is the text mainly about？ ___A．Benjamin's visit to Philadelphia.B．Williams' influence on Benjamin.C．The beginning of Benjamin's life as an artist.D．The friendship between Benjamin and Pennington.5．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 3 suggest？ ____A．The cat would be closely watched.B．The cat would get some medical care.C．Benjamin would leave his home shortly.D．Benjamin would have real brushes soon.6．What did Pennington do to help Benjamin develop his talent？ ____A．He took him to see painting exhibitions.B．He provided him with painting materials.C．He sent him to a school in Philadelphia.D．He taught him how to make engravings.7．Williams' two books helped Benjamin to ___ .A．master the use of paintsB．appreciate landscape paintingsC．get to know other paintersD．make up his mind to be a painterCRobert and Peter study in the same university. They do everything together and help each other. But they often play jokes on each other. The school year was over last month and they decided to travel through the country in America. They drove acar and could stop wherever they were interested in and started whenever they wanted. Of course they enjoyed themselves.It was very hot one day and they were both hungry and thirsty. They stopped in front of a restaurant by the road. They came in, sat down at a table and ordered some dishes. Robert looked around and found there was a small bowl on the table. He thought there was some ice cream in it and took a spoonful of it and put it into his mouth. Immediately he knew it was mustard(芥末),but it was too late. Tears ran down his face, but he pretended nothing had happened. The other young man, seeing his friend crying, asked, “What are you crying about, Robert?”“I’m thinking of my father who was hanged twenty years ago,” was a reply.After a while Peter made the same mistake. Tears ran down his cheeks ,too. And his friend asked him why.“I wonder why your father hadn’t been hanged before he got married!”8. Robert didn’t tell Peter it was some mustard in th e bowl because .A. he thought his friend was interested in itB. he didn’t know his friend hated itC. he thought his friend knew what it wasD. he wanted his friend to repeat the mistake9.

What does the writer mainly wants to tell us in this passage. ______A. not to trust your friendB. a jokeC. not to mistake mustard for Ice creamD. it’s wrong to lie to friendsD“A room without books is like a body without a soul, ” observed the Roman philosopher, Cicero. It can also be a sign of financial problems to come. New research has uncovered a strong connection between the earning of adults and whether they grew up surrounded by books as children.Three economists at the University of Padua—Giorgio Brunello, Guglielmo Weber and Christoph Weiss—studied 6, 000 men born in nine European countries and concluded that children with access to books could expect to earn more money than those who grew up with few or no books.They studied the period from 1920 to 1956, when school reforms saw the minimum school leaving age raised across Europe. They looked at whether, at the age of 10, a child lived in a house with fewer than 10 books, a shelf of books, a bookcase with up to 100 books, two bookcases, or more than two bookcases.Over the period studied, the research, published in The Economic Journal, found that an additional year of education increased a man’s av erage lifetime earnings by 9%. Men brought up in houses with less than a shelf of books earned only 5% more as a result of the extra year’s education, compared with 21% more for those who had access to a lot of books. And those who had access to books were more likely to move to the better-earning opportunities in cities than those without books. The men’s first job was also much more likely to be a white-collar job.The economists offer a number of theories for the results. “Perhaps books matter because they encourage children to read more and reading can have positive effects on school performance, ” they said.The number of books in children’s homes can effecti vely predict their cognitive(认知的) test scores. This may indicate a home that encourages cognitive skills, which are important for economic success in life.12. Why did author mention Cicero’s words in the first paragraph?A. To make an argument. _______B. To introduce the topic.C. To express his own views.D. To arouse readers’ interest.13. What can we learn about the people studied by the researchers?A. They were tracked by researchers since age 10.B. They all left school because of school reforms.C. They came from several different countries.D. They are now white-collar professionals.14. How does the author show the results of the research?A. By listing numbers.B. By providing examples.C. By following the order of time.D. By following the order of importance.15. What is the main conclusion to the research?A. Homes without books are vulnerable(脆弱的) to financial problems.B. Families that can afford books raise successful children.C. Boys who love reading books earn more than girls.D. Children who live with books earn more as adults.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。

It made school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.In my first literature class, Mrs. Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, “Mrs. Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.”She glanced down at me through her glasses, “You are no different from your classmates, young man.”I tried, but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home.In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots(点), which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.Wasn’t I the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted” students? My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was no different from others; I just needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up?I didn’t expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs. Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day-with an “A” on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words: “See what you can do when you keep trying?”4.The author didn’t finish the reading in class because _____.A.he was new to the classB.he was tired of literatureC.he had an attention disorderD.he wanted to take the task home.5.What do we know about Louis Braille from the passage?A.He had good sight.B.He made a great invention.C.He gave up reading.D.He learned a lot from school.6.What was Mrs. Smith’s attitude to the author at the end of the story?A.Angry.B.Impatient.C.Sympathetic.7.What is the main idea of the passage?A.The disabled should be treated with respect.B.A teacher can open up a new world to students.C.One can find his way out of difficulties with efforts.D.Everyone needs a hand when faced with challenges.CTwo recent studies have found that punishment is not the best way to influence behavior.One showed that adults are much more cooperative if they work in a system based on rewards. Researchers at Harvard University in the United States and the Stockholm School of Economics in Sweden did the study.They had about two hundred college students play a version of the game known as the Prisoner’s Dilemma. The game is based on the tension (紧张气氛) between the interests (利益) of an individual and a group. The students played in groups of four. Each player could win points for the group, so they would all gain equally. But each player could also reward or punish each of the other three players, at a cost to the punisher.Harvard researcher David Rand says the most successful behavior proved to be cooperation. The groups that rewarded it the most earned about twice as much in the game as the groups that rewarded it the least. And the more a group punished itself, the lower its earnings were. The group with the most punishment earned twenty-five percent less than the group with the least punishment. The study appeared last month in the journal Science.The other study involved children. It was presented last month in California at a conference on violence and abuse. Researchers used intelligence tests given to two groups. More than eight hundred children aged two to four the first time they were tested. More than seven hundred children aged five to nine.The two groups were retested four years later, and the study compared the results with the first test. Both groups contained children whose parents used physical punishment and children whose parents did not. The study says the IQs—or intelligence quotients—of the younger children who were not spanked were five points higher than those who were. In the older group, the difference was almost three points.Murray Strauss from the University of New Hampshire worked with Mallie Paschall from the Pacific Institute for Research and Evaluation. Professor Strauss has written extensively about physical punishment of children. He says the more they are spanked, the slower their mental development. He also looked at average IQs in other nations and found them lower where spanking was more common.8.. According to the first study, we mainly infer that _____.A. the game is called Prisoner's DilemmaB. the less a group punished itself, the lower its earningsC. adults are much more cooperative if rewardedD. the game is introduced in the journal Science9.The underlined word “spanked”in fifth paragraph probablymeans .A.wonB.punishedC.testedD.praised10.Which could be the best title of the passage?A.PunishmentB.The Best Way to Influence Behavior.C.Punishment or Reward: Which Works Better on Behavior?D.Two Recent Studies.11.The author develops the passage _____. .A.in order of timeB.in order of importanceC.by describing his experiencesD.by using quotations and statisticsDThe flying car has been talked about for many years, but now it appears to become a reality.An international company has built a two-seater plane that, at the touch of a button, transforms into a car perfectly suitable for driving on public roads. It takes 15 seconds to switch between flying and driving. With its wings fully open and the propeller(螺旋桨) spinning, it can take off from any airfield.Flying cars are quicker than traditional ones, and they can run on ordinary fuel. Another big advantage is that they are cool, like something you would see in an action film. At the moment, however, the flying car’s wheels are illegal to leave the ground. That is not because of technical reasons or problems with the design. It is because the various road and aircraft authorities simply cannot agree on whether it is a car or a plane.Nevertheless the company hopes to produce and deliver its first flying car soon. The company already has orders for 40 of them. The majority potential customers are older and some are retired. There have even been orders from some people who have no pilot’s license.The flying car will cost around $ 200,000. “For an airplane, that’s a very reasonable price, but for a car, it’s quite expensive,” explains Alan. “But it just i s not possible to make a $ 10,000 flying car yet.”This latest means of transport will not become a mass-market item in the near future, but in the long term it has the potential to change the way you travel. It will become no more expensive than driving your car on the motorway. Travel time could be reduced by more than half.So the next time you are told to fasten your seat belt, it may be to prepare for take-off.12、We know from the passage that the flying car _____. .A．has to run on special fuelB．will replace traditional planesC．is popular with the richD．can shift between two forms13、The flying car is presently forbidden to take off because _____. .A．many people think driving is not very safeB．it’s hard to decide whether it’s a car or a planeC．the government and the authorities accept itD．there are still some technical problems to be solved14、According to the passage, we can learn _____. .A．in the future few people will be able to afford a flying earB．owning two kinds of driving licenses is of great importanceC．because of the appearance of the flying car, traffic jams will disappear D．flying cars may share the market in the future15、What’s the best title of the passage?A．Your Car Is Ready for Take-offB．Flying Car Will Be the Leading Means of TransportationC．Affording a Flying Car Is a NecessityD．The Advantages of Flying Cars第二节：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，注意其中两项为多余选项。

甘肃高一高中英语月考试卷带答案解析

甘肃高一高中英语月考试卷班级:___________ 姓名：___________ 分数：___________一、阅读理解1.The arts, especially music, should be part of every school's lessons at every grade level. Students would be much smarter if they had some musical experience. They could improve their classroom skills, like paying attention and following directions. People develop all these skills when they learn music. Making music also lets children use their imagination. It provides students with a chance to try out their own ideas.Music not only makes children better students, but also gives them something positive to do. In a music program, children can be part of a band instead of joining a gang (团伙). Parents can enjoy listening to their children's music instead of seeing them glued to a computer or TV screen. In a school band, students get to be part of a team. They can get along well with old friends and make new friends through music.Music builds self-confidence, too. It gives children a sense of achievement and success. Making music is something for them to be proud of, and it lets kids practice performing in front of an audience. Music gives children an opportunity for self-expression, and that helps develop their self-confidence.Once again, music is important because it can make children better students, give them something positive to do, and build their character. That is why music should be offered in every single grade in every school.【1】According to the passage, music could make students smarter by________.A．improving their classroom skills and paying attentionB．improving their classroom skills and imaginationC．improving their attention, direction and imaginationD．learning music, making music and trying out their own ideas【2】What does the underlined phrase "glued to" in the second paragraph mean?A．unwilling to turn on B．always lookingC．unwilling to leave D．always playing【3】The third paragraph mainly tells us that music could __________.A．give children self-expression and self-confidenceB．bring to children achievement and successC．give children something to be proud ofD．develop children's self-confidence【4】What's the best title of this passage？A．Music is a must as a course at schoolB．Music builds children's self-confidenceC．Music makes students much smarterD．Learning music and making music2.It gives me great pleasure today to say a few words in praise of a man we will all miss very much. To be honest,I can't imagine we will do without him when he's gone.Bill Masters almost single-handed built up our sales force in the Houston area and developed the market position that we enjoy today. In only six years, he has brought the firm from a very low fifth position in the area sales to the point where we now outsell all but one of our competitors. Not only have we got 37 per cent of the market under Bill's leadership; we are increasing our share with each passing month.As you know, the company has moved Bill to northern California to work his sales magic in one of this company's most competitive(竞争的) areas. But we know that if anyone can do it, Bill Masters can, and I know you all join me in wishing him the best of luck in his new work.【1】The speech was made _______.A．at a welcome meetingB．at the opening of a new school termC．when somebody was leavingD．when they had a new manager【2】How long did Masters worked there?A．37 years B．less than 5 yearsC．about six years D．since he began to work【3】When Bill started to work in Houston area, he had _______to help him.A．many people B．nobodyC．about 37 people D．very few people【4】Bill increased the company's sale _______.A．by 37 per cent every monthB．to the second largest in the areaC．to be the fifth largest in the areaD．five times as much as before3.Thomas Alva Edison was awarded more patents on inventions than any other American. When he died in 1931, Americans wondered how they could best show their respect for him. One suggestion was that the nation observe a minute or two of total blackout. All electric power would be shut off in homes, streets, and factories. Perhaps this suggested plan made Americans realize fully what Edison and his inventions mean to them. Electric power was too important to the country. Shutting it off for even a short time would have led to complete confusion.A blackout was impossible.On the day of Edison's funeral, many people silently dimmed their lights. In this way they honored the man who had done more than anyone else to put the great force of electricity at his countrymen's fingertips.【1】This selection says that Thomas Edison ________.A．was the only important American inventorB．received the first American patentC．received more patents than any other AmericanD．was the first American inventor【2】People decided to honor Edison when ________.A．he made the first electric lightB．electric power was 100 yearsC．the country realized electricity's importanceD．he died in 1931【3】The suggested plan was to ________.A．turn off the lights in factories and schoolsB．observe a few minutes of total silenceC．dim all electric lightsD．shut off all electricity for a short time4.The most frightening words in the English language are, “Our computer is down.” You hear it more and more when you are on business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, “I’m sorry, I can’t sell you a ticket. Our computer is down.”“If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket.”“I can’t write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so.”I looked down on the computer and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I asked her, “What do all you people do?”“We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not.”“So when it goes down, you go down with it.”“That’s good, sir.”“How long will the computer be down?” I wanted to know.“I have no idea. Sometimes it’s down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. There’s no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since it’s down it won’t answer us.”After the girl told me they had no backup(备用) computer, I said. “Let’s forget the computer. What about your planes? They’re still flying, aren’t they?”“I couldn’t tell without asking the computer.”“Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he’s flying to Washington, ” I suggested.“I wouldn’t know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldn’t take you if you didn’t have a ticket.”“Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours?”“I wouldn’t know, ” she said, pointing at the dark screen. “Only ‘IT’ knows. ‘It’ can’t tell me.”By this time there were quite a few people standing in lines. The word soon spread to other travelers that the computer was down. Some people went white, some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage. 【1】The best title for the article is _______.A．When the Computer Is DownB．The Most Frightening WordsC．The Computer of the AirportD．Asking the Computer【2】What could the girl in the ticket office do for the passengers without asking the computer?A．She could sell a ticket.B．She could write out a ticket.C．She could answer the passengers’ questions.D．She could do nothing.【3】Why do you think they had not a backup computer?A．Because it was easy downB．Because it was very expensive.C．Because it was not advanced enough.D．Because it was not as big as the main computer.【4】The last paragraph suggests that _______.A．a modern computer won’t be down.B．computers can take the place of humansC．sometimes a computer may bring suffering to peopleD．there will be great changes in computers二、完形填空I was said to be the worst student in my class, and my family thought I was hopeless.

As the father of a student, I have e_perienced first hand what a great teacher is. My son was in the 4th grade last year, and he had a teacher called Miss Green. I believe that when he is an adult he will surely look back on her as the best teacher he has ever had.My son has attention deficit disorder(注意力缺损症) that makes it a little more difficult for him to learn. She was able to change her teaching methods for him so that he could keep up with the rest of the class. As a result, he got straight As on many subjects. She regarded her class as a family and they even had their own class song. She would often have them sing it to encourage them and develop a team spirit for them. When she saw that they were no longer listening carefully to what she was teaching, she would have them close their te_tbooks, stand up all around the room and throw around a small football. This helped them clear their minds and then focus on the lesson again. Besides, she was quick to reply to anyphone calls or emails from us and got rid of our worries about children quickly.When my son went to the 5th grade this year, we happened to pass her classroom. When she saw my son, she smiled, and she came out and hugged him. She generally loves all of the children in her classroom and that love really shows. I can only pray that my son will continue to get teachers just like her for the rest of his school years._. With the teacher’s help, the writer’s son ______.A. became the best student in his classB. was interested in singing songsC. quickly finished his 4th grade lessonsD. improved his grades greatly_. Which of the following is NOT true about Miss Green?A. She regarded the students as members of a family.B. She had special ways to help students study.C. She was good at teaching football and music.D. She usually made a quick reply to parents’ ema ils.23. We can learn from the passage that ______.A. Miss Green didn’t teach the writer’s son in the 5th gradeB. Miss Green was the best teacher at the schoolC. all the students in the school liked Miss GreenD. the writer’s son had many teachers like Miss Green24. In the passage, the writer mainly tells us ______.A. what his son studied at schoolB. his son once had a good teacherC. how to be a good and popular teacherD. a teacher who liked playing with studentsMy husband, my four-month-old daughter and I set out on a five-day driving journey from California to Washington. We had to stop frequently because our little child needed to stretch from the car seat.One of our stops, once we crossed the Oregon border, was at a Black Bear Diner. Walking towards the front door we noticed a gentleman standing at one side. He was clearly untidy, without shoes and wearing worn clothing. We passed right by him and opened the restaurant door. Then something told me to go back.Holding my daughter, I tur ned around and said to the gentleman, “Sir. Are you hungry?” He said, “Yes.” I then asked, “May we b uy you something t o eat?” He responded with, “Sure, I can order something myself.”My husband opened the door and the gentleman went straight to the counter.I told him to order whatever he wanted. The manager of the restaurant came over quite quickly and looked frightened. I s poke before he had an opportunity to. “This gentleman will have lunch with us today,” I said. “Please add his order to our bill.” T he manager said with a frown(皱眉), “Okay.” We turned to our table and the g entleman said, loudly and quic kly, “Thank You!” We were seated and upon completing our meal we were handed our bill. I asked my husband what the gentleman had ordered. One fresh orange juice, one coffee, one breakfast combination with a side of hash browns.When we left the restaurant I looked for the gentleman but didn’t see him, but that very small act just made my day. I hope in some small way we were able to add some joy to his life, even if only for a few minutes.25. From the appearance of the gentleman, we can guess he was probably a(n) _____.A. waiterB. actorC. beggarD. worker26. The manager of the restaurant looked frightened because _____.A. the man was not f riendlyB. the man had stolen something from the restaurantC. he had fired the man beforeD. he was afraid the man wouldn’t afford to pay the food27. From the passage, we can infer the man _____.A. was thankful for their kind actB. felt ashamed and slipped awayC. was hungry and ate a lot of foodD. was too proud to accept their offer28. The phrase “made my day” in the last paragraph probably means ______.A. wasted my moneyB. made me very happyC. made me feel sorryD. moved me deeplyIf you have a chance to go to Finland, you will probably be surprised to find how “foolish” the Finnish people are.Take the ta_i drivers for e_ample. Ta_is in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver would not show the least sign of an_iety.The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals. The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration card to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge.The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate(价钱). From then on, they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paidaccordingly(相应地).With so many loopholes(漏洞) in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty advantages”. But the strange thing is, all the ta_i passengers would always come back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms.

By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new or an_ious situation. If we want to test intelligence, we need to find out how a person acts instead of how much he knows what to do.For e_ample, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situation, not about himself or what might happen to him. He tries to find out all he can, and then he acts immediately and tries to do something about it. He probably isn’t sure how it will all work out, but at least he tries. And, if he can’t make things work out right, he doesn’t feel ashamed that he fails; he just tries to learn from his mistakes. An intelligent person, even if he is very young, has a special outlook(人生观) on life, special feeling about life, and knows how he fits into it.If you look at children, you’ll see great difference between what we call “bright” children and “not bright” children. They are actually two different kinds of people, not just the same kind with different amounts of intelligence. For e_ample, the bright child really wants to find out more about life --- he tries to get in touch with everything around him. But the unintelligent child keeps more to himself and h is own dream-world; he seems to have a wall between him and life in general.33. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. What’s real meaning of intelligenceB. What’s the “bright” children’s behaviorC. What’s a special outlook on lifeD. How to live and behave in a new situation349.

What might the author continue to talk about in the passage that follows?A. how to determine what intelligence isB. how an unintelligent person should be taughtC. how to judge whether a person is intelligentD. how education should be changed第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共_分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑，选项中有两项为多余选项。
