During the last summer holiday, my parents and I paid visit to my grandparents by train. There was a large number of people and the train was crowded, but everyone helped those who had lots of baggages and behaved politely. Along the way, we chatted happily and enjoyed beautifully views. At first, we saw one hill after other. Then which came into view were fields with green crops. In a six-hour trip, we arrived at my grandparents’house. Tired as I felt, but I was happy to see my grandparents,whom I haven't seen for a long time. It was really an excited trip because it was the first time that I had taken such a long-distance train.

Tea drinking was common in China for nearly one thousand years before anyone in Europe had ever heard about tea.People in Britain were much slower in finding out what tea was like, mainly because tea was very expensive.It could not be bought in shops and even those people who could afford to have it sent from Holland did so only because it was a fashionable curiosity.Some of them were not sure how to use it.They thought it was a vegetable and tried cooking the leaves.Then they served them mixed with butter and salt.They soon discovered their mistake but many people used to spread the used tea leaves on bread and give them to their children as sandwiches.
Tea remained scarce and very expensive in England until the ships of the East India Company began to bring it direct from China early in the seventeenth century.During the next few years so much tea came into the country that the price fell and many people could afford to buy it.
At the same time people on the Continent were becoming more and more fond of tea.Until then tea had been drunk without milk in it, but one day a famous French lady named Madame de Sevigne decided to see what tea tasted like when milk was added.She found it so pleasant that she would never again drink it without milk.Because she was such a great lady that her friends thought they must copy everything she did, they also drank their tea with milk in it.Slowly this habit spread until it reached England and today only very few Britons drink tea without milk.
At first, tea was usually drunk after dinner in the evening.No one ever thought of drinking tea in the afternoon until a duchess(公爵夫人)found that a cup of tea and a piece of cake at three or four o’clock stopped her getting “a sinking feeling” as she called it.She invited her friends to have this new meal with her and so, tea-time was born .
1.This passage mainly discusses ______.
A.the history of tea drinking in Britain

A.it tasted like milk
B.it tasted more pleasant
C.it became a popular drink
D.Madame de Sevinge was so great that people tried to copy the way she drank tea
4.We may infer from the passage that the habit of drinking tea in Britain was mostly due to the influence of ______.

C.the upper(上層的) social class
D.people in Holland

After spending a year in Brazil on a student exchange program, her mother recalled(回憶), Marie Colvin returned home to find that her classmates had narrowed down their college choices. “Everyone else was already admitted to college,” her mother, Rosemarie Colvin, said from the family home. “So she took our car and drove up to Yale and said, ‘You have to let me in .’ ”
“Impressed--she was a National Merit (全國英才) finalist who had picked up Portuguese in Brazil. Yale did, admitting her to the class of 1978, where she started writing for the Yale Daily News and decided to be a journalist,” her mother said.
On Wednesday, Marie Colvin, 56, an experienced journalist for The Sunday Times of London, was killed as Syrian forces shelled(炮擊) the city of Homs. She was working in a temporary media center that was destroyed in the attack.
“She was supposed to leave Syria on Wednesday”, Mrs. Colvin said. “Her editor told me he called her yesterday and said it was getting too dangerous and they wanted to take her out. She said she was doing a story and she wanted to finish it.”
Mrs. Colvin said it was pointless to try to prevent her daughter from going to conflict (沖突)zones. “If you knew my daughter,” she said, “it would have been such a waste of words. She was determined, she was enthusiastic about what she did, it was her life. There was no saying ‘Don’t do this.’ This is who she was, absolutely who she was and what she believed in: cover the story, not just have pictures of it, but bring it to life in the deepest way you could.” “So it was not a surprise when she took an interest in journalism,” her mother said.

A. Yale was her last choice

e. She began to take an interest in journalism.
A. d→e→c→a→b B. b→c→d→e→a
C. e→d→c→b→a D. c→b→e→d→a
3.From the last paragraph, we can know that Mrs. Colvin ________.
A. dislikes the choice of her daughter

You either have it, or you don’t — a sense of direction, that is.But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street?
Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works.One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it.Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don’t use it, we 1ose it.
“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around, ’’ says Jim Martland, research director of the project.“However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.’’
Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction.He makes the following suggestions:
1.If you are using a map, turn it so it relates to the way you are facing.
2.If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree—something easy to recognize.Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike.When you return, go back along the same route.
3.Simplify the way for finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you.Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where yon are.
Now you will never get lost again!

A.some people have a sense of direction when they are born

When I was about twelve, I headed to a restaurant for dinner with my family. It was winter, and on that particular night, the wind was really blowing. As my mom and I headed towards the restaurant from our car, a girl about my age and her mother came up to us. They asked if we had any spare change. My mom immediately asked where they kept their things. They pointed to an old car in a parking across the street. The girl said there were six of them living in that car, which was the same size as my own family.
My mom said she had something to do after handing the people a few dollars. She sent me inside the restaurant with my dad and my three siblings. But she didn’t come.
Later, I found out she had gone home and practically emptied our cupboards into a few bags. Then, she brought that food over to the car and handed the bags to the family. I wasn’t there when that part happened, but I can only imagine the joy it brought to their faces.
A few days later, when I actually found out about what she had done, I asked her why she helped those people. She told me that they were not lucky. I remember the face of that girl who had asked us for change, she was the same age as me, yet we looked so different.
Here I stood, dressed in almost new clothes, headed to dine in a restaurant and then back home to the bedroom I shared with my younger sister. I remember thinking that the other girl didn’t have any food to eat. and she was heading back to a cold car shared with five other people.

B
I had worried myself sick over Simon’s mother coming to see me. I was a new teacher, and I gave an honest account of the students’ work. In Simon’s case, the grades were awfully low. He couldn’t read his own handwriting. But he was a bright student. He discussed adult subjects with nearly adult comprehension. His work in no way reflected his abilities.
So when Simon’s mother entered the room, my palms (手掌心) were sweating. I was completely unprepared for her kisses on both my cheeks. “I came to thank you,” she said, surprising me beyond speech. Because of me, Simon had become a different person. He talked of how he loved me, he had begun to make friends, and for the first time in his twelve years, he had recently spent an afternoon at a friend’s house. She wanted to tell me how grateful she was for the self-respect I had developed in her son. She kissed me again and left.
I sat, stunned, for about half an hour, wondering what had just happened. How did I make such a life changing difference to that boy without even knowing it?What I finally came to remember was one day, several months before, when some students were giving reports in the front of the class, Jeanne spoke quietly, and to encourage her to raise her voice, I had said, “Speak up. Simon’s the expert on this. He is the only one you have to convince, and he can’t hear you in the back of the room.” That was it. From that day on, Simon had sat up straighter, paid more attention, smiled more, and became happy. And it was all because he happened to be the last kid in the last row. The boy who most needed praise was the one who took the last seat that day.
It taught me the most valuable lesson over the years of my teaching career, and I’m thankful that it came early and positively. A small kindness can indeed make a difference.
1.We can infer that when Simon’s mother entered the room, the writer felt ______.
A. satisfied B. nervous C. happy D. surprised
2. The following words can be used to describe Simon before he met the writer except ______.
A. unconfident B. lonely C. outgoing D. clever
3.What the teacher said in paragraph 3 is intended to ______.
A. encourage Jeanne to speak louder
B. encourage Simon to work hard
C. ask Jeanne to convince Simon
D. tell the students that Simon was expert on that
4.The purpose of the passage is to ______.

Although many Chinese students say their knowledge of English grammar is good, most would admit that their spoken English is poor. 1._________ However, their spoken English does not have to remain poor. I would suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English.
First, 2. Obviously the better answer is to expand their vocabulary. However, you can speak with a limited vocabulary if your attitude is positive. Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know.
Second, 3._.Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous. Yet students should remember that their goal should be FLUENCY NOT ACCURACY. You want to get your message across, to talk to someone in English, as quickly and as well as you can, even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense, but it doesn't matter because the person you are speaking to will understand you and make allowance for any mistakes he hears.
Third, 4._ .You have one mouth but two ears! All that hearing is necessary for you to start speaking.
Fourth,5._ .Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to improve their spoken English, they passively wait for speaking opportunities to come to them and wonder why their spoken English always remains poor. If you have this proactive outlook, then you will see English opportunities wherever you go.
A.not enough attention is paid to listening. B. they fail to find suitable words to express themselves because of limited vocabulary. C.most Chinese students are not active language learners. D.They are so stupid that they cannot finish their necessary homework in time. AB.Whenever I speak to Chinese students they always say, “My spoken English is poor.” AC.it is no use crying over spilt milk. AD.they are afraid of making mistake. |
