14.High school students in Asia often do better than American students on international math and science tests.Experts say (1)B is because schools in countries like China and South Korea do better at preparing students to take tests.Yet some of these (2)C countries want to learn what makes American students good at (3)A and critical thinking.
Evan Glazer,the principal of Thomas Jefferson High School in America,says the school (4)D science and math with literature and other liberal arts.
EVAN GLAZER:"Curriculum,when it's seen within one (5)D context,you're really just (6)A knowledge and skills.But if you want to look at the complexity of real problems and (7)B solutions,it requires people to come at them from different (8)C.And so we foster (培養(yǎng)) a lot of team teaching,(9)Dwith teachers from different (10)B so that,when they're offering challenges to students,that they have (11)Aview-points as they approach problems."
He points out that as East Asian countries consider greater (12)B for their schools,American education is (13)C in the opposite direction.Most states have recently approved (14)D standards in math and reading.
Evan Glazer:"In China and in Korea there is a strong interest in trying to get students to be more creative.And in America there is a strong interest in standardization.And,you know,the reality is we don't operate (15)A.It's trying to find that right balance."

12.Thirty-two people watched Kitty Genovese being killed right beneath their windows.She was their neighbor.Yet none of the 32helped her.Not one even called the police.Was this in gunman cruelty?Was it lack of feeling about one's fellow man?
Not so,say scientists John Barley and Bib Fatane.These men went beyond the headlines to seek the reasons why people didn't act.They found that a person has to go through two steps before he can help.First he has to notice that is an emergency.
Suppose you see a middle-aged man fall to the side-walk.Is he having a heart attack?Is he in a coma from diabetes(糖尿。?Or is he about to sleep off a drunk?
Is the smoke coming into the room from a leak in the air conditioning?Is it steam pipes?Or is it really smoke from a fire?It's not always easy to tell if you are faced with a real emergency.
Second,and more important,the person faced with an emergency must feel personally responsible.He must feel that he must help,or the person won't get the help he needs.
The researchers found that a lot depends on how many people are around.They had college students in to be tested.Some came alone.Some came with one or two others.And some came in large groups.The receptionist started them off on the tests.Then she went into the next room.A curtain divided the testing room and the room into which she went.Soon the students heard a scream,the noise of file cabinets falling and a cry for help.All of this had been pre-recorded on a tape-recorder.
Eight out of ten of the students taking the test alone acted to help.Of the students in pairs,only two out of ten helped.Of the students in groups,none helped.
In other words,in a group,Americans often fail to act.They feel that others will act.They,themselves,needn't.They do not feel any direct responsibility.
Are people bothered by situations where people are in trouble?Yes.Scientists found that the people were emotional,they sweated,they had trembling hands.They felt the other person's trouble.But they did not act.They were in a group.Their actions were shaped by the actions of those they were with.

32.The purpose of this passage isA.
A.to explain why people fail to act in emergencies
B.to explain when people will act in emergencies
C.to explain what people will do in emergencies
D.to explain how people feel in emergencies
33.The researchers have conducted an experiment to prove that people will act in emergencies whenC.
A.they are in pairs       
B.they are in groups
C.they are alone        
D.they are with their friends
34.The main reason why people fail to act when they stay together is thatD.
A.they are afraid of emergencies
B.they are unwilling to get themselves involved
C.others will act if they themselves hesitate
D.they do not have any direct responsibility for those who need help
35.The author suggests thatA.
A.we shouldn't blame a person if he fails to act in emergencies
B.a(chǎn) person must feel guilty if he fails to help
C.people should be responsible for themselves in emergencies
D.when you are in trouble,people will help you anyway.

13.All over the world,and for many different reasons,there are millions of people who rarely or never eat meat.These people are called vegetarians.To people who eat meat,being a vegetarian may seem like a very strange thing.But they won't eat meat for several different reasons.
First,vegetarians have an enormous health advantage.One of the major health problems in modern societies is not too little protein but too much food,especially in the form of animal fats.Medical evidence suggests that animal fats,including butter,lead to the development of cholesterol(膽固醇) in the human body.High amount of cholesterol seem to be part of the cause of heart disease.Most vegetarians have low level of cholesterol.High amounts of animal fats also seem to lead to certain kinds of cancer,and vegetarians are typically less vulnerable to these cancers than people who eat a lot of meat.Overall,studies comparing the health of vegetarians and meat-eaters show that the meat-eaters are twice as likely to die of heart disease as vegetarians are.
Better health is one reason that people choose to become vegetarians.Another reason is religion.Some religions forbid the eating of meat.The largest of these is the Hindu religion,which has about 600million believers in the world.Although not all Hindus are vegetarian,many are,and there are many believers of other religions such Buddhism and even some Christian religions that also do not eat meat.
Many vegetarians do not eat meat simply because they do not like the taste of it.They have no religious or philosophical reasons; they just do not like meat.Another important reason that vegetarians give for not eating meat is the health advantages that were given above.Lastly,there are many people who do not eat meat because they just do not like the idea of killing animals for food.They believe that life,all life,is valuable and that we do not have to destroy life to feed ourselves when there are other good sources of food.
41.According to the passage,people choose to be vegetarians for the following reasons  EXCEPTD.
A.they want to stay healthy
B.they are too kind to like the idea of killing animals
C.they should not eat meat due to their religious belief
D.they live in areas where meat supply is not adequate
42.Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 2?C
A.There are twice as many meat-eaters as vegetarians who die of cancer.
B.Heart disease and cancer are caused by large amounts of protein.
C.Vegetarians enjoy a more healthy life than the meat eaters.
D.There are less health problems in modern society due to advanced medical care.
43.Which is true about the vegetarians?D
A.Vegetarians never eat meat for whatever reasons
B.There are more vegetarians than meat-eaters in the world.
C.Vegetarians cannot eat meat because of their health problems.
D.Some vegetarians cannot get used to eating meat because of the taste.
44.What does"vulnerable"mean in Paragraph 2?B
A.Having strong ability to resist disease and harms.
B.Having weak ability to resist (抵抗) diseases and harms.
C.Having low level of cholesterol.
D.Having high level of cholesterol.
45.It can be inferred from the passage thatD.
A.being a vegetarian may be a very strange thing
B.a(chǎn)ll vegetarians have reasons for their not eating meat
C.vegetarians eat meat on some special occasions

2.The sport of running offers many good points.First,it is a great way to get in shape.It also helps relieve stress,gives you more energy,and makes you proud of what you are accomplishing.
Running is a sport easy to do.It is one of a few sports that you can do alone.You need very little equipment.Most runners are happy with just these few things:
●A comfortable pair of running shoes that have good arch and ankle support and allow your feet to breathe properly
●A good quality stopwatch such as Penta,ATLAS,or LifeTime,WHEN TIME
●A water bottle

(1)Walk slowly for 30minutes.
(2)Alternate slow walking with short periods of fast walking.
(3)Add short running sessions into your 30-minute walk.
(4)Try a 30-minute run when you feel ready,but never become so winded that you could not carry on a conversation.
You will soon discover benefits from running that you will not want to give up.You will feel more relaxed and focused.Your concentration will improve and you will find that,even though you are taking 30minutes each day from your busy schedule,you will get more done.Try it!What do you have to lose?

51.Why is it easy to do the sport of running?It is one of a few sports that you can do alone.You need very little equipment.
52.What equipment is necessary for a runner?A comfortable pair of running shoes,a good quality stopwatch,and a water bottle.
53.What should you do first if you start to try running?Walk slowly for 30 minutes.

19.A.Preparations for surfing
B.Potential dangers
C.Current surfers'attitude towards surfing
D.Finding the right wave
E.Where surfers come from
F.The most dangerous sport

    Surfing is one of the fastest developing sports in the world today.It used to be practiced by the ancient Polynesians,but since the 1960s anyone and everyone can go surfing.
76.C
    Surfing is more of a way of life for some people than simply a sport,and many spend their time travelling around the planet in search of the perfect wave.Typically,the average surfer is a relaxed type of person:they say it's something about the art of catching waves and being out in the elements that makes you feel very relaxed.Surfers greet each other by saying"Howzit?"(a bit like"How's it going?") and sometimes call each other"bru"or"brah"from the Hawaiian word for brother,"braddah".British surfers travel in WV camper vans and look a bit like hippiest.
77.E
    Anywhere that has a coastline with big waves is home to surfers.Half of Australia's coastline is surfable so there are lots of Australian surfers.Hawaii is where the sport was invented and the current champion is Hawaiian Sunny Garcia.A lot of surfers also come from California and New Zealand.There are even surfers in the UK who hang out on the southwest coast where the Atlantic waves hit the shore.
78A.
    Get a board.Most surfers start on short boards.Long boards and guns are only for experienced surfers catching huge waves.You also have to be a very strong swimmer:being able to swim at least 100 meters,and 25 meters underwater is required.
79.D
    Beach breaks are waves which fall onto sand.They can be big,but are best if you are a beginner.Waves vary in size during different seasons and even at different times of the day,so watch out!Surfing can be dangerous and you need advice from someone experienced.More experienced surfers catch waves at point and reef breaks.They are away from the coast,and the swell comes deep from the ocean.Point breaks are waves bent because of the shape of the land beneath the ocean,and reef breaks are shaped by coral and rocks.
80.B
    Surfing is a dangerous sport if you aren't a strong swimmer or if you try to do too much.The main thing most surfers have to worry about is their own board or other surfers'boards.Great white sharks,stingrays and deadly jellyfish are also not friendly to surfers,but actually running into one of these is quite rare.

6.[1]Sooner or later everyone has to write something-a thank-you note,a report at a meeting,a complaint or an apology.If you have writing assignment(作業(yè)) in school,or if you still fear to put pen to paper,facing that empty page is almost as frightening as you are facing a tiger.How to write it?There is no mystery.Clear writing is just clear thinking.Here are some techniques for you.
[2]Thinking on paper
Sit down with a pencil and paper or at the computer screen and start outlining(概述,略述) what you want to say,why it is important,why it matters,and what its impact is on the reader.Just get the ideas down.The next step is to go back and put them in order.
[3]Writing first sentence
Try to make your first sentence catch the reader's eyes,because      ,the reader is not going to read on.Get a good,clear lead sentence that summarizes your points and answers the reader's question"What is in it for me?"if you can not do it in one sentence,then do it in two or three but keep them short.
[4]Remembering the reader
Short,simple words are better than long words.Short sentences are better than long sentences.Remember that the goal is to communicate,not to express yourselves.Most people are so devoted to what they want to say that they forget somebody else has to be able to read it.Too much information makes you lose readers before they get to the meat(實質(zhì)) of what you want to say.
[5]Reading and rewriting
Read out what you have written loud,and listen for any awkward(笨拙的) sentences.All good writers read,then rewrite.Back off a little bit from what you are writing.It is an old standard,but if you can,write something and come back a day later.

76.What is the best title for the passage?(no more than 8words)How to write a Good Article/Some techniques for writing a good article./Some techniques to write a good article.
77.Which of the techniques do you think is the best for you?Why?(within 15words)The third one.Because it can make my writing popular with readers.
78.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 3with proper words.(within 5words)if it can't
79.What's the last step to write a better writing according to the passage?(within three words)Reading and rewriting

3.Everyone wants something in life,love,money,success…Yet too many people fail to achieve their goals,and nearly all of them are for the same reason.
It's true that terrible things do happen to people during their lives,though no fault of their own,which may make them feel upset.Generally speaking,however,getting what you really want out of life is just a matter of the following three simple steps.
Firstly,you have to decide what it is you want the most.But do not make a list of wishes; try to focus on one thing at a time.If you're not sure about where you want to go,you'd better think it over first and not hurry to perform.
Secondly,create an action plan.This will be your map for getting from""to"where you want to go".You know what you want,and what steps you are going to take to get it.For example,if you want a better job,start with a skills assessment (評估) and maybe some extra training.Then you'll need to sell yourself and your skills either to your present employer or to a new employer.
Other goals will require a bit more thought.Some will really get you lost without a clue of how to get there.Not to worry,though,books,biographies and such,can be of great help.
The third and final step is to execute.Do what you planned.Take the steps you outlined on your road map and keep going on all the time.If you run into some people who are against you,simply ignore them.
Never give up the goal.Keep pushing.Whatever you do,do not lose heart until you have what you desire in your hands.Never think that you can't turn your dream into a reality.
76.What does the author want to tell readers in this article?(No more than 10 words)
How to get what you really want out of life.                                                                     
77.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 4 with proper words.(No more than 5 words)
Where you are now                                                                       
78.List the three simple steps that you should take if you want to achieve your goals.(No more than 20words) 
Firstly,decide what it is you want the most.Secondly,create an action plan.Thirdly do what you planned.                                                                       
79.What is the most important thing when you deciding what to do?(No more than 8 words)
Focusing on one thing at a time                                                                       
80.What does the underlined word"it"in paragraph 3 probably refer to?(No more than 5 words)
where you want to go.
