题目内容

10．When I was six years old，my mom told me that I could find anyone's number in the phone book．I used to look through the phone book for hours trying to find Michael Jordan's phone number．When I couldn't find it，I just dialed seven numbers．When someone answered，I'd ask，"Is that Michael Jordan？"Obviously，I always had the wrong number．
A year later I started playing basketball at my local recreation center．It was very big．I never thought in my wildest dreams that a basketball court could be inside a building．The recreation center had a special smell in it，sort of like hot rubber．I guessed it was from the shoes hitting the floor so fast and hard．The atmosphere on the court was carefree．Our biggest excitement of the day was when we actually made a shot．We celebrated wins over ice cream at a fast food restaurant．
I got good at it，and my confidence grew．I played it all the time until the sixth grade．As soon as junior high school came，I stopped playing basketball and focused on school．When senior high school started，I tried out for the school team and made it．We worked hard．Every week we did 300 push-ups and 300 sit-ups on our own．Our coach encouraged the sit-ups to keep stomach power，because it gave us so much control when we were playing basketball．If we didn't want to do the sit-ups and push-ups，we could practice dribbling （运球） and shooting more．It's just us，the ball，the court and the net．But don't take my word for it．See for yourself．After all，I'm just one kid playing the game．

5．We sometimes think global warming or climate change is a problem very far away from our lives，and that only the government needs to worry about it．But it's hardly possible to completely stay out of it-scientists are now 95percent sure that humans have been the"dominant cause"of global warming trends since the 1950s．
One of the conclusions of a report released on Sept 27by the United Nations says that human activities have caused global temperatures to rise by 0.89 0C between 1901and 2012．That might not seem like a lot，but the truth is that a major part of that heat has been absorbed into the oceans，which is not surprising given that they cover two thirds of Earth's surface．Also，water has a much greater capacity （容量） to absorb heat than the air does，according to The Economist．
While many greenhouse gases occur naturally and are needed to keep the Earth warm enough to support life，humans'use of fossil fuels is the main source of excess （多余的） greenhouse gases．According to CNN，by driving cars，using electricity produced by burning coal and oil or heating our homes with coal or natural gas，we release a large amount of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere．
Your body can barely feel a difference of 0.89 0C，but the Earth's ecosystems are so sensitive that even small changes can disturb them．It often starts with the smallest creatures at the bottom of the food chain，eventually affecting bigger animals，many of which could end up becoming extinct．
Global warming is also linked to an increase in extreme weather．A larger amount of carbon dioxide traps more energy inside the atmosphere．This changes the patterns of storms and rainfall in many regions and can lead to droughts and floods．Worse still，melting sea ice in warmer oceans is causing sea levels to rise at a speed of more than three millimeters per year，according to The Guardian，which also increases the risk of flooding．
"The report should serve as another wake-up call that our activities today have a profound impact on society，not only for us，but for many generations to come，"French Michel Jarraud，secretary-general of the World Meteorological Organization，said at a news conference．

68．The underlined word"dominant"in the first paragraph means"D"．
A．common     B．indirect    C．secondary    D．leading
69．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage？C
A．Greenhouse gases have been proven to harm merely the Earth．
B．There is little we can do to prevent global warming．
C．Global warming can increase the chances of droughts and floods．
D．The hugeness of oceans makes them better absorbers of heat than the air．
70．The rise in global temperatures between 1901 and 2012D．
A．is more harmful to smaller creatures than bigger ones
B．is not serious because most of the extra heat has been absorbed by the oceans
C．has made the Earth's ecosystems more sensitive to changes
D．is likely to cause many species to become extinct
71．What is Michel Jarraud's attitude toward the report released by the UN？B
A．Negative． B．Supportive． C．Doubtful． D．Uninterested．

2．I had the meanest mother in the whole world．While other kids ate candy for breakfast，I had to have cereal，eggs or toast．When others had cokes and candy for lunch，I had to eat a sandwich．As you can guess，my supper was different from the other kids'also．But at least，I wasn't alone in my sufferings．My sister and two brothers had the same mean mother as I did．
    My mother insisted upon knowing where we were at all times．You'd think we were on a chain gang．She had to know who our friends were and where we were going．She insisted if we said we'd be gone an hour，that we be gone one hour or less-not one hour and one minute．
    We had to wear clean clothes and take a bath everyday．The other kids always wore their clothes for days．We reached the height of insults because she made our clothes herself，just to save money．
    The worst is yet to come．We had to be in bed by nine each night and up at eight the next morning．We couldn't sleep till noon like our friends．So while they slept---my mother actually had the nerve to break the Child Labor Law．She made us work．We had to wash dishe s，make beds，learn to cook and all sorts of cruel things．I believe she laid awake at night thinking up mean things to do to us．
    Through the years，things didn't improve a bit．We could not lie in bed，"sick"like our friends did，and miss school．Our marks in school had to be up to par．Our friends'report cards had beautiful colors on them，black for passing，red for failing．My mother，being as different as she was，would settle for nothing less than ugly black marks．
    As the years rolled by，first one and then the other of us was put to shame．We were graduated from high school．With our mother behind us，talking，hitting and demanding respect，none of us was allowed the pleasure of being a drop-out．
    My mother was a complete failure as a mother．Out of four children，a couple of us attained some higher education．None of us have ever been arrested or divorced．Each of my brothers served his time in the service of this country．She forced us to grow up into God-fearing，educated，honest adults．Using this as a background，I am now trying to raise my three children．I am filled with pride when my children call me mean．Why？Because now I thank God every day for giving me the meanest mother in the whole world．
21．What can we infer from the passage？D
A．The author is not happy to have such a mean mother．
B．The author's mother broke the Child Labor Law to make money．
C．The author's mother failed to educate her children to be honest adults
D．The author is strict with her children．
22．Why couldn't the author eat candy for breakfast？C
A．Because she preferred cereal，egg s or toast to candy．
B．Because her mother couldn't afford for candy．
C．Because her mother thought it not good to eat candy for breakfast．
D．Because her mother had to gave candy to the author's sister and two brothers．
23．The author's mother made her children work becauseC．
A．she had trouble falling into sleep
B．she could not keep such a big family without her children's help
C．she was teaching her children to live by themselves．
D．she had no time to do housework．

17．Two friends have an argument that breaks up their friendship forever，even though neither one can remember how the whole thing got started．Such sad events happen over and over in high schools across the country．In fact，according to an official report on youth violence，"In our country today，the greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment，but the terrible reality of violence"．Given that this is the case，why aren't students taught to manage conflict the way they are taught to solve math problems，drive cars，or stay physically fit？
First of all，students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable．A report on violence among middle school and high school students indicates that most violent incidents between students begin with a relatively minor insult （侮辱）．For example，a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandwich each lunchtime．Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults，which in turn can lead to violence．The problem isn't in the sandwich，but in the way students deal with the conflict．
Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable，they can practice the golden rule of conflict resolution （解决）：stay calm．Once the student feels calmer，he or she should choose words that will calm the other person down as well．Rude words，namecalling，and accusations only add fuel to the emotional fire．On the other hand，soft words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes out of control．
After both sides have calmed down，they can use another key strategy （策略） for conflict resolution：listening．Listening allows the two sides to understand each other．One person should describe his or her side，and the other person should listen without interrupting．Afterward，the listener can ask nonthreatening questions to clarify the speaker's position．Then the two people should change roles．
Finally，students need to consider what they are bearing．This doesn't mean trying to figure out what's wrong with the other person．It means understanding what the real issue is and what both sides are trying to accomplish．For example，a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things．Students need to ask themselves questions such as these：How did this start？What do I really want？What am I afraid of？As the issue becomes clearer，the conflict often simply becomes smaller．Even if it doesn't，careful thought helps both sides figure out a mutual solution．
There will always be conflict in schools，but that doesn't mean there needs to be violence．After students in Atlanta started a conflict resolution program，according to Educators for Social Responsibility，"64percent of the teachers reported less physical violence in the classroom； 75percent of the teachers reported an increase in student cooperation； and 92percent of the students felt better about themselves"．Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends，teachers，parents，bosses，and coworkers．In that way，conflict resolution is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country．
