He had been working all night on the design of a sewing machine but he had run into a very difficult problem: It seemed really hard to get the thread(线) to run smoothly around the needle(针).Though he was tired, Howe slept badly. He turned and turned. Then he had a dream. He dreamed that he had been caught by terrible soldiers whose king wanted to kill him and eat him unless he could build a perfect sewing machine. When he tried to do so, Howe ran into the same problem as before. The thread kept getting caught around the needle. The king flew into the prison and ordered his soldiers to kill Howe. They came up towards him with their spears(矛) raised. But suddenly the inventor noticed something. There was a hole in the tip of each spear. The inventor awoke from the dream, realizing that he had just found the answer to the problem. Instead of trying to get the thread to run around the needle, he should make it run through a small hole in the center of the needle. This was the simple idea that finally made Howe design and build the first really practical sewing machine.Elias Howe was not the only one in finding the answer to his problem in this way. Thomas Edison, the inventor of the electric light, said his best ideas came into him in dreams. So did the great physicist Albert Einstein. Charlotte Bronte also drew in her dreams in writing Jane Eyre.To know the value of dreams, you have to understand what happens when you are asleep. Even then, a part of your mind is still working. This unconscious(无意识的), but still active part understands your experiences and goes to work on the problems you have had during the day. It stores all kinds of information that you may have forgotten or never have really noticed. It is only when you fall asleep that this part of the brain can send messages to the part you use when you are awake. However, the unconscious part acts in a special way. It uses strange images(图像) which the conscious part may not know at first. This is why dreams are sometimes called“secret messages to ourselves ”.1．According to the passage, Elias Howe was _______.A．the first person that solved problems in his sleepB．much more hard-working than other inventorsC．the first person to design a sewing machine that really workedD．the only person at the time who knew the value of dreams2．The problem Howe was trying to solve was _______.A．what kind of thread to useB．where to put the needleC．how to design a needle which would not breakD．how to prevent the thread from getting caught around the needle3．Thomas Edison is spoken of because _______.A．he also tried to invent a sewing machine B．he got some of his ideas from dreamsC．he was one of Howe's best friends D．he also had difficulty in falling asleep4．What does the underlined phrase “secret messages to ourselves” mean?A．Strange images are used to communicate ideas.B．Images which have no meaning are used.C．We can never understand the real meaning.D．Some specially trained people can know them.B14、This weekend a marathon ( 马拉松) took place in Salzburg. I admired the runners who ran 42.2 kilometers for over four hours. But I've never run for more than half an hour.At university I play korfball. This is a team sport with eight people on each team. The aim is to shoot ( 投篮) the ball into the hoop. All players get a chance to attack ( 攻) and defend ( 守) during the game and it's very fast. When I started korfball, I wasn't very good at it. I could throw and catch but I wasn't very fast on my feet. Shooting was also difficult for me. However, I really enjoyed the sport and made friends in the club, so I went training twice a week. Two years later I am in the first team for my university and have played in many matches. This just shows if you train hard, you can succeed.Running is difficult because you have to make yourself willing to keep going. I used to get really out of breath while running and I didn't feel good at all! Now I actually enjoy going for a run along the river in Salzburg, feeling my muscles ( 肌肉) working and breathing in the fresh air.Challenging exercise is always worth doing. Hiking is fun because all the hard work—walking uphill comes at the beginning of the day, then at the top of the mountain you can enjoy the view. At the end of the day you feel like you've really achieved something.I will never be a marathon runner, but I would like to try a 10-km run sometime, or perhaps even a half-marathon. How happy the runners were as they crossed the finishing line! I'd like to have that feeling—the months of training paying off as you achieve your goal.1．What did the writer think of running the marathon at first?A．Difficult. B．Strange. C．Enjoyable. D．Exciting.2．When the writer started korfball, he couldn't .A．catch and throw a ball B．catch and shoot a ballC．move quickly while playing D．catch the ball from teammates3．Why does the writer think challenging exercise is worth doing?A．It helps him make lots of friends. B．It gives him a sense of achievement.C．It makes him become a marathon runner. D．It helps him get to the top of the mountain.C15、It can be hard to meet people from another culture. From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal (信号). Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.Different cultures emphasize（强调）the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in “small talk”, usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries—like the UK or France—people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafes rather than at the office.Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand. I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion; instead there was an uncomfortable silence. The people present just stared at me and smiled. After getting to know their ways better, I realized that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary. Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures share similar values; however, Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural（多元文化）environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.1．In some countries, eating together at restaurants may make it easier for people to ______.A．keep each other companyB．share the same cultureC．get to know each otherD．develop closer relations2．The writer mentions his experience in Thailand to show that ______.A．too many words are of no useB．the English prefer to make long speechesC．even talk and silence can be culturally differentD．people from Thailand are quiet and shy by nature3．What would be the best title for the passage?A．Multicultural EnvironmentB．Cross-Cultural DifferencesC．How to Understand Each OtherD．How to Build Up a RelationshipD16、A mother in Australia was told by a doctor that her new born son was “dead”，but she helped bring him back to life by holding the baby against her body.She used a method known as “kangaroo care”(袋鼠护理法)．The child，named Jamie，was born after only 27 weeks with his twin sister，Emily，at a hospital in Sydney.Her birth went well，but his was a different story.The doctor struggled for 20 minutes to save Jamie before declaring (宣布)him dead.“His little arms and legs were just falling down away from his body，” Kate Ogg said，“I took my coat off and put him on my chest with his head over my arm.” She and her husband，David，spoke to the child as she continued to hold him for nearly two hours.During that time，the two-pound baby showed signs of life.She said，“I told my mom，who was there，that he was still alive.Then he held out his hand and grabbed (抓住)my finger.” Their tiny baby grew stronger and stronger in his mother’s arms，and their final goodbye turned into a hello.The doctor at first ignored(忽视) the baby’s movements，but when he put the stethoscope (听诊器) to its chest，his mouth was wide open and he said，“it’s my fault.It’s a miracle(奇迹)．”“The ‘kangaroo care’ helps the baby keep body warmth，” D r Pinchi Srinivasan said，“It also regulates (调节) heartbeat and breathing rates and is believed to help weight gain and improve sleeping habits.Fathers can also use“kangaroo care”．The key to the method is skin-to-skin contact.The practice began in less developed nations.It has become a recognized practice in helping premature(早产) babies.The techniques(技术) is good for babies，and is used in many baby care centres.1．After hearing what the doctor said，the mother________.A．chose to believe the doctorB．didn’t give up and tried to bring her baby to lifeC．became so sad that she almost became mad2．When the baby first showed sighs of life，the doctor________.A．didn’t notice the baby’s movementsB．was too shocked to do anythingC．was moved by what the mother did to the baby3．From what Dr Pinchi Srinivasan said，we learn the baby came back to life mainly because of________.A．the mother’s soft wordsB．the doctor’s careful careC．skin-to-skin contact with the mother4．According to the passage，premature babies refer to babies that are born ________.A．with diseases B．before their time C．dead5．What’s the main idea of the passage?A．A baby was almost killed by a doctor’s wrong decision.B．A doctor in Australia announced a baby was dead by mistake.C．A mom in Austr alia saved her baby with “kangaroo care”.E17、One morning Fan Xing discovered that her classroom had changed.The 13-year-old saw that the desks were no longer in rows(排),but pushed together to make six bigger desks.The new arrangement(排列) was part of a reform(改革) at Fan's school,Changsha Daotian Middle School inHunan.About five weeks ago,more than 2,000 junior students at the school began studying in this way,with six to eight students sitting in groups."This reform is designed to provide students with easier ways to study and more chances for discussion,"said Liu Xu,a school head teacher."Our school hopes it can improve students' abilities(能力) for self-study as well as teamwork."The new arrangement took some time for students to get used to."I was too curious(好奇)

14-year-old said,"Group members first discuss,and then explain the solutions or answers to difficult questions in front of the whole class.""The discussion gives us more confidence to make speeches,"said Feng."We can also improve our friendships."The reform has asked for more from teachers.They have no more than 15 minutes to teach in class."It is a big challenge to teach in such short time the lessons which should be taught in 45 minutes,"English teacher Wang Jing said."We have to improve methods to teach better.We must prepare some interesting topics and exercises before class so that students can discuss them."Wang said that some students always talk.The teachers have to move continuously in the classroom to keep them quiet and get them to concentrate on class."It demands

many friends, and he was proud of it. Whoever he met, he would like to show off how popular he was at school.One day, his grandpa said to him, “Mike, I know that you don’t have as many friends as you think. Many of them are not true to you.”Mike thought maybe his grandpa was right. However, he wasn’t sure how he could test whether his schoolmates were real friends or not, so he asked his grandpa. The old man answered, “I have just exactly what you need. It’s in my room. Wait a minute.” The old man left, soon returning as if(好像) carrying something in his hand, but Mike could see nothing there.“Take it. It’s a very special chair. Because it’s invisible, it will be hard for you to sit on it. However, if you manage to sit on it, you can use the chair’s magic power to tell who your real friends are.”Mike took the strange invisible chair to school. At break time he asked everyone to form a circle, and he put himself in the middle, with his chair.“Nobody moves. Y ou’re about to see something amazing,” said Mike.

But again he missed the chair.Mike didn’t give up. He kept trying to sit on the magic chair. Finally, he did it. This time he felt himself in mid-air.

But all kinds in the animal world can communicate in one way or another. Maybe you have heard about the way bees dance around to send messages to each other and the way dogs bark in different ways to give warnings, to be friendly or to be playful. But did you know about infrasonic communication used by elephants? This is how it works:Humans hear low sounds like thunder rumbling in the sky. But we don’t hear sounds lower than this. However, animals such as elephants and hippos can hear much lower sounds than humans can. And what’s more, they can make those low sounds as well, and they use them to communicate with each other. This is known as infrasound.The amazing thing about infrasound is that it travels over several kilometers. Higher-level sounds like the one people can hear, don’t travel well through walls, leaves, trees and so on, which is why we can’t hear sounds from more than 100 meters away. But infrasound is much stronger and things like grass and trees have no influence on it. Therefore, it can travel much further. Elephants can hear infrasonic calls from four kilometers away!There have been reports of people watching groups of elephants feeding or resting and then the elephants suddenly all stopped what they were doing for no reason at all. They obviously heard a warning call from a long way away, butt he people didn’t hear a sound. In places like a zoo or wildlife park where you can get nearer to animals, it is a bit easier to sense when infrasonic sounds are made. When you stand near mother elephants with their babies in a zoo, you may notice a slight rumbling in the air every few minutes—not loud or strong, but clearly noticed.

He was asked to go and give an operation to a very sick boy at once. The boy was in a small hospital in Glens Falls, sixty miles away from Dr Johnson’s city – Albany. The boy had hurt himself in a traffic accident and he was in danger, but his family was so poor that they could not pay the doctor anything. After hearing all this, Dr Johnson decided to save the boy. Soon, he drove his car and he thought th at he could get to the hospital before 12 o’clock. A few minutes later, the doctor’s car had to stop for a red light at a crossing. Suddenly a man in an old black coat opened the door of the car and got in.“Drive on”, he said. “I’ve got a gun..”“I’m a doctor,” said Johnson, “I’m on my way to a hospital to operate on a very sick…”“Don’t talk,” said the man in the old black coat, “Just drive.”A mile out of the town, he ordered the doctor to stop the car and get out. Then the man drove on down the road. The doctor stood for a moment in the snow. After half an hour, Dr Johnson found a telephone and called a taxi. At the railway station he learned that the next train to Glens Falls would not leave until 12 o’clock.It was after two o’clock in the morning when the doctor arrived at the hospital in Glens Falls. Miss Clarke, a nurse, was waiting for him.“I did my best,” said Dr Johnson. Miss Clarke said, “The boy died an hour ago.”They walked into the waiting room. There sat the man in the old black coat, with his head in his hands.“Mr. Shute,” said Miss Clarke to the man, “this is Dr Johnson.

They’re not really bad guests, but because the guest-host relationship in China is much different than in some western counties, it appears they are not nice guests. And western guests sometimes look rude (粗鲁的) in the eyes of Chinese guests.In China, guests are almost like gods. Whenever I enter a Chine se person’s home, there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west, generally the guest is not a god. Acting according to the host’s way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest.My wife’s mother, a very kind elderly Chinese lady, doesn’t smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non-smoker, I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly, but I must realize that in China, to be a good host,she must not do that. In most North America homes, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their house. At the very least, you could ask, “Is it OK if I smoke?” “But, don’t be surprised if they say, “No, you can’t smoke.” In our culture, if you smoke in their home, you are a bad guest, but if they don’t allow you to smoke in their house, they are not a rude guest.Guests in China also have special habits. Some western people may not adapt to these habits very soon. Thankfully my wife is Chinese, so whenever we visit a Chinese family she tells me to buy them a gift. However, giving a gift to a host is not always necessary in my country. So, if you invite international guests to your home, don’t be too surprised if they don’t bring you a gift.In China, you probably won't need to change the guest-host relationship very much because you will probably only be the host, and Chinese are naturally very good hosts. If western hosts invite you to their house, try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected.1．If the writer’s guests want to smoke in his house, what will he probably say?A．It’s OK if you smoke here. B．Let’s smoke together.C．Sorry, you can’t smoke here. D．Smoking is a bad habit.2．What is the m eaning of the underlined phrase “adapt to” in the passage?A．think back to B．get used to C．look forward to D．keep close to3．What is the main idea of this passage?A．Foreigners should learn from Chinese.B．Hosts must do things in the guest’s way.C．Western hosts are always nice to guests.D．People should understand cultural differences.D16、Pangu Separated Sky from EarthAt the beginning of the world, the sky and the earth were together. There was only darkness and chaos (混沌). Pangu, a giant (巨人), was born and grew up in it for 108,000 years. One day, he woke up but couldn’t see anything. He waved his axe (斧头) so angrily that the chaos was separated all of a sudden. The light things rose up to the sky while the heavy things went down to the earth. Then, he held the sky with his head and stepped on the ground with his feet. After his death, his breath turned into the wind and clouds, his voice became the thunder (雷), his eyes became the sun and the moon, his body became the mountains, his blood became the rivers and his bones became the roads.Yugong Moving MountainsOnce upon a time, there was a very old man. He is Yu Gong. There were two mountains in front of his house. Theywere so high and big that it took a long time to walk to the other side. So he decided to move the mountain. A wise man laughed at him for being so foolish to think he could do it. Yu Gong said, “My sons will keep moving them after I die, and my grandsons after my sons.” Yu Gong and his family kept on digging day after day a nd year after year. Finally, a god was so moved by Yu Gong that he sent two gods to take the mountains away.1．Pangu was ______ when he woke up without seeing anything but darkness and chaos.A．happy B．sleepy C．angry D．moved2．Pangu’s eyes turned into ______.A．the wind and clouds B．the sun and the moon C．the rivers D．the thunder3．Yugong thought ______ would keep moving the mountains after he died.A．Pangu B．his sons C．his grandsons D．the wise man4．You may find the passage in ______.A．an ad B．a travel magazine C．a school notice D．a story bookE17、阅读下列短文，根据短文内容，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。
