9.You know how wonderful you are,and you know that others know how wonderful you are,but what do you do when admiration crosses over the line into jealousy(嫉妒)?For most teens there will come a day when you realize that one of your friends is jealous and that this jealousy is hurting your friendship.When this happens it can seem like there is nothing that you can do,but the good news is that there is.Don't let jealousy spoil your relationships.Deal with it confidently and you might be back to normal much sooner than you think.
It can be hard to walk up to a friend and ask them what the problem is,but if you want to save your friendship you'll have to do just that.Don't approach them and ask why they are jealous of you unless of course you want to appear totally conceited (逞能),just take some time alone with them and let them know that you've been feeling like there's been something coming between you.If they refuse to respond,then use the opportunity to explain how you have been feeling.Chances are that something you say will strike a nerve and your friend will open up as well.
When you figure out what is annoying your friend,ask him or her what (s)he thinks would make the situation better.If,for example,(s)he says that (s)he feels like (s)he doesn't get to spend any time with you because of your being off with your new friends from the swim team then maybe you could invite her along the next time or block off one day a week for just the two of[.Com]you.Remember,though,that whatever solution you decide on should be a compromise(妥协).Don't limit your own talents or opportunities simply because your friend is unhappy.Try instead to include him or her in your new life and see how that works out.
Even the best of friendships can be ruined by jealousy.This destructive emotion is rarely productive and can turn best friends into worst enemies.Before taking extreme action,chat with your jealous friend to see if the two of you can work out a compromise.If you can't,be prepared to know exactly how far you will go to keep your friend and how far you won't.
33.What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 2?A
A.How to solve the problem of jealousy.
B.Why we need to solve the problem of jealousy.
C.How to explain your jealousy to your friends.
D.Why it is hard to deal with the problem of jealousy.
34.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?D
A.There's always a solution to solve the problem of jealousy.
B.Jealousy can turn best friends into worst enemies.
C.You should go a long way with your friend to work out a solution
D.You may lose a friend to keep your own gifts,chances or self-development.
35.This passage is mainly intended forC.
A.female readers      
B.students   
C.teenagers       
D.best friends.
3.Massive Open Online Courses are also called MOOCs.Tens of thousands,or even more people can (1)Dthese classes all at once.You can be anywhere in the world to take a MOOC.All you need is a (2)A and a network connection.
MOOCs add to a tradition of what is known as (3)C learning.For years,many colleges have offered classes that are taught (4)Cor mostly online.MOOCs are available in subjects like computer science or engineering,which work quite well.But can MOOCs in subjects like arts be as (5)B as the old teaching approach?
Scott Anderson teaches philosophy at the University of British Columbia in Canada.He sees both good and (6)Bsides to MOOCs."There are parts that will be fine,mostly when students listen to a (7)A,there is no special reason why they need to be (8)Apresent to hear and get it,"says Mr.Anderson.Increased numbers of students in MOOCs can mean (9)C communication between them and teachers.He says two ways to deal with this are by adding more teachers and (10)Dup online discussion groups.
Lisa Jadwin,who teaches English and writing at St.John Fisher College in New York,says that online education has some weakness for her subjects.What's (11)Bin online education is face-to-face interaction,for example,the teaching of English is a face-to-face (12)Dpractice.So the old approach is not going to be (13)D very quickly by computer-aided instruction.
Bill Pogue teaches communications at the University of Houston-downtown.He says that after leading classes for more than 30years,he would not attempt to teach a MOOC.However,Mr.Pogue sees good (14)C in online education.He noted a strong sense of community in an online course he once took.He said the students could work (15)A on the same project while living in different regions.

10.Moral science is taught as a subject in most schools but with little effect.Perhaps part of the problem lies in the fact that morality(道德)is not a science,strictly speaking.It is too much of a social phenomenon,and also has too much of the personal and subjective(主观的)things mixed within.Besides,morality itself changes with generations.So it is impossible to be defined in a textbook.
    I remember sitting through forty minutes of moral lessons,which told stories about little children who never told lies and were rewarded for their goodness.It had little effect and left no impression on me,though.
    If moral science has to be taught as a subject in schools,it needs a participatory(参与其中的)approach.When you tell a child about morals,you also have to deal with social norms(规范)and cultural differences.You have to explain that morality can be subjective,and be able to co-exist in society.You will probably have to refer to the morals of the present time.
    The best way to tell a child how to live is to show him what is valued.If a child likes his friend,you have to make the child think about why.Once the child notices and recognizes goodness in others,he or she is likely to develop it as well.
    In fact,children learn most of their morals by watching people around them.They absorb behavior patterns from teachers and older students.They watch to see what is rewarded and who is punished.They learn on the sports field and through social work.Moral science lessons should simply consist of letting them live and interact,and watch you support correct values and reward good behavior.

67.Which is NOT the reason that moral science is taught in schools but with little effect?D
  A.Morality doesn't strictly belong to a science
  B.Morality is more like a social phenomenon.
  C.Different generations have different moral ideas.
  D.Morality can't be written down in textbooks.
68.The author describes his own experience of having moral lessons in order toC
  A.explain telling lies is not moral for little children.
  B.advise people should be rewarded for their goodness.
  C.prove moral lessons in schools have little effect.
  D.show he has no opinions about moral science.
69.When you tell a child about morals,you shouldB.
  A.teach him to share personal moral ideas with others
  B.tell him about social norms and cultural differences
  C.explain that nobody can influence his moral ideas.
  D.say that the present morals are likely to be changed
70.What is the last paragraph mainly about?A.
  A.The best way of teaching children about morals.
  B.The value of teachers'setting a good example
  C.The influence of people's behavior on morals.
  D.The importance of rewarding good behavior.
7.An African-born British scientist received an environment research prize for show-ing how bees can be used to reduce conflict between people and elephants.Lucy King's work proved that beehive(峰房)"fences"can keep elephants out of African farmers'fields.The animals are scared of bees,which can bite them inside their long noses,and flee when they hear buzzing(蜂鸣声).
Dr King's work offers an intelligent solution to an age-old challenge,while providing further confirmation of the importance of bees to people and a really clever way of preserving the world's largest land animal for current and future generations.Working in Kenya,Dr King and her team showed that more than 90% of elephants will flee when they hear the sounds of buzzing bees.Afterwards,they also found that elephants produce a special sound to warn their fellows of the danger.They used the findings to construct barriers where beehives are woven into a fence,keeping the elephants away from places where people live and grow food.
 A two-year project involving 34 farms showed that elephants trying to go through the fences would shake them,disturbing the bees.Later,the fences were adopted by farming communities in three Kenyan districts--who also made increased amounts of money from selling honey.
As Africa's population grows,competition for space between people and elephants is becoming more serious,and there are fatalities on both sides.The same is true in parts of Asia.Sri Lanka alone sees the deaths of all estimated 60 people and 200 elephants each year from conflict.
Lucy King now wants to see whether the Kenyan technique will work in other parts of Africa--and perhaps,eventually,in Asia.

61.The underlined part in Paragraph 1 means the same asC
A.intelligent solution to an age-old challenge.
B.confirmation of the importance of bees to people
C.competition for space between people and elephants    
D.way of preserving the world's largest land animal
62.Which of the following orders of events correctly shows how Dr King's project works?B
①Beehive fences are built around a Farm.
②Elephants hear the buzzing and run away.
③Bees are disturbed and fly out of the beehives.
④Elephants trying to enter the farm shake the fences.
A.①→②→③→④B.①→④→③→②
C.④→③→②→①D.①→②→④→③
63.Dr King's solution is described as"intelligent"becauseD.
A.it successfully keeps elephants out of African farmers'fields
B.the fences Were adopted by farming communities in three Kenyan districts
C.more than 90% of elephants flee when they hear the sounds of buzzing bees
D.it protects crops.produces honey and preserves the dephant at the same time
64.The underlined word"fatalities"in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning toA.
A deaths    B.communities    C.population    D.fences
65.Which of the following is true according to the passage?D
A.Dr king was born in Britain.
B.Most elephants scare bees.
C.The technique has proved to work well in Asia,too.
D.Conflicts between people and elephants are rather serious.
8.Recently,I stopped by a convenience store to get a newspaper and a bottle of drink.The young woman at the check-out counter said,"That'll be five dollars (36)B please,"She  then (37)C down at the paper I was (38)D and said,"I'm sick and (39)A all this negative (消极的) stuff on the front(40)C.I want to read some (41)B news for a change."She then said,"In fact,I think someone should just (42)D a Good News newspaper-a paper with wonderful,inspirational(43)A about people overcoming difficulty and doing good things for(44)C.I'd buy one every day!"She then (45)B me for coming in and said,"Maybe we'll get some good news,"and she laughed.She made my day.

It hit me right between the eyes:Two people,the same age; (51)A made me feel great,and the other,well,made me feel that I had inconvenienced her by (52)C.
