6．A rat came to the window，but I moved suddenly andfrightened（frighten）it away．
13．The first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn't know．I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder．I turned around to find a wrinkled，little old lady beaming up at me with a smile that lit up her entire being．
She said，"Hi，girl!My name is Rose．I'm 87years old．Can I give you a hug？"
I laughed and enthusiastically responded，"Of course you may!"and she gave me a giant squeeze．
"Why are you in college at such a young，innocent age？"I asked．She jokingly replied，"I'm here to meet a rich husband，get married，have a couple of children，and then retire and travel!"
"No seriously．"I said．I was curious about what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age．
"I always dreamed of having a college education and now I'm getting one!"she told me．
Over the course of the year，Rose became a campus icon（偶像） and she easily made friends wherever she went．She loved to dress up and she reveled in the attention bestowed upon her from the other students．She was living it up．
At the end of the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet．I'll never forget what she taught us．
"We do not stop playing because e are old； we grow old because we stop playing．There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up．Anybody can grow older．That doesn't take any talent or ability．The idea is to grow up by always finding opportunities in change．Have no regrets．The elderly usually don't have regrets for what we did，but rather for things we did not do．The only people who fear death are those with regrets．"
She concluded her speech by courageously singing"The Song of Rose．"She challenged each of us study the lyrics（歌词） and live them out in our daily lives．
At the year's end，Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago．One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep．

3．In  earliest times，men  considered  lightning to be  one of the  great  mysteries of  nature．Some ancient peoples believed that lightning and thunder were the weapons of the gods．
In  reality，lightning is a flow of  electricity  formed high above the earth．A single  flash of lightning 1.6 kilometres long has enough electricity to light one million light bulbs．
The  American  scientist and statesman，Benjamin  Franklin，was the first to show the connection between electricity and lightning  in 1752．In  the  same  year  he  also  built  the  first lightning rod（避雷针）．This device protects buildings from being damaged by lightning．
Modern science has discovered that one stroke of lightning has a voltage（电压）of more than 15 million  volts．A flash of  lightning between a cloud and the earth may be as long as 13 kilometers，and travel at a speed of 30 million meters per second．
Scientists judge that there are about 2，000 million flashes of lightning per year．Lightning hits the Empire State  Building in New York City 30 to 48 times  a  year．In the United States alone it kills an average of one person every day．
The safest place to be in case of an electrical storm is in a closed car．Outside，one shoud go to low ground and  not  get  under a tree．Also，one should  stay out  of water  and away  from  metal fences．Inside a  house，people  should avoid  open  doorways  and windows  and not touch  wires or metal things．
With lightning，it is better to be safe than sorry．

31．People once thought lightning came fromB．
A．the sky             B．the gods          C．the earth            D．nature
32．According to the passage what do you think all buildings need？C
A．Metal fences．B．Electricity．C．lightning rods．D．Machines．
33．Lightning can travelD．
A．as quickly as water

A．In the U．S．about 360people die from lightning in a year．
B．The Empire State Building frequently gets hit by lightning．
C．Swimming during a thunder storm is a good idea．
D．A closed car is the best place to be during an electrical storm．
35．Lightning is probablyA to man．
A．useful              B．kind             C．useless             D．friendly．

Marie Curie won two Nobel Prizes，one for physics in 1906，together with her husband and another scientist，the other for chemistry herself in 1911．Madame Curie was a scientist of great achievement，and the first woman ever to be honored in the Nobel Prize history．

参考词汇：实践知识 practical knowledge 高考 College Entrance Examination
Taking Part in School ActivitiesWe had a heated discussion about whether senior high school students should take part in school activities．As for school activities，students mainly hold two views．Many students are very enthusiastic about school activities because they think that learning from textbooks is not their only task and they should take every chance to get some practical knowledge．（高分句型一）Besides，after long hours'study，they can relax themselves by practicing in school activities．
However，a large group of students take little interest in them and spend most of their time on study．They believe that they should make full use of time to study and that school activities have nothing to do with their further development．（高分句型二）
As far as I am concerned，I prefer the first view．On the other hand，we can learn a great deal from other students we meet in activities．（高分句型三）Furthermore，modern society requires many qualities of young students，so"book worms"can't keep up with the times．．
