根据短文内容，从下面所给的A—F选项中选出能概括每一段(1-5)主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余项。

A. Give more aid to weak schools.

B. Children should share the same educational rights.

C. Heavy load is supposed to be taken off the students’ shoulders.

D. Bring the industrial management of education to an end.

E. Balanced education may stop school choice.

F. Key schools and classes are unreasonable.

1. Education should be intended to make better citizens instead of making money. Money can be earned by starting business. It’s time to abolish(废除，消灭) the industrialized education so that all the people can benefit from real education.

2. Concrete（具体的） measures should be taken to lessen the students’ heavy burden. Not empty talks but concrete and solid policies can make sure all the students grow soundly.

3. My parents are farmer-turned workers. I think we should be treated equally with the local children. We should have equal chance to go to both the local public schools and take the national college entrance exam rather than go back to our native places.

4. School choice has become a serious educational problem. To solve this problem, we must stick to the balanced development. The government should offer more support to weak schools and have all the teachers exchange their work among all the schools.

5. The government’s unwillingness to spend enough money on education makes key schools turn to parents for money to build new buildings and increase teachers’ income, widening the gap between key schools and common schools. Therefore, in order to realize the balance of education, the government should offer more help to weak schools.

When I was about 12, I had an enemy(敌人），a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺点). Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn't a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.

He listened to me quietly, then he asked. “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn't you ever wonder what you're really like ? Well, you now have that girl's opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”

I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn't change (like being very thin), but a good number I could—and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to a fairly clear picture of myself.

I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it.“That's just for you,” he said.“You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, you'll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don't shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.”

Daddy's advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I've never had a better piece of advice.

1.What did the father do after he had heard his daughter's complaint?

A. He told her not to pay any attention to what her“enemy” had said.

B. He criticized (批评) her and told her to overcome her shortcomings.

C. He told her to write down all that her “enemy” had said about her and pay attention only to the things that were true.

D. He refused to take the list and have a look at it.

2.What does “Week by week her list grew” mean?

A. Week by week she discovered more shortcomings of mine and pointed them out to me.

B. She had made a list of my shortcomings and she kept on adding new ones to it so that it was growing longer and longer.

C. I was having more and more shortcomings as time went on.

D. Week by week, my shortcomings grew more serious.

3.Which do you think would be the best title for this passage?

A. Not an Enemy, but the Best Friend

B. My Father

C. The Best Advice I've Ever Had

D. My Childhood

Among all the fast growing science and technology, the research of human genes, or biological engineering as people call it, is drawing more and more attention now. Sometimes it is a hot topic discussed by people.

The greatest thing that gene technology can do is to cure serious diseases that doctors at present can almost do nothing with, such as cancer and heart disease. Every year, millions of people are murdered by these two killers. And to date, doctors have not found an effective way to cure them. But if the gene technology is applied, not only these two diseases can be cured completely, bringing happiness and more living days to the patients, but also the great amount of money people spend on curing their diseases can be saved, therefore it benefits the economy as well. In addition, human life span (寿命) can be prolonged.

Gene technology can help people to give birth to more healthy and clever children. Some families, with the English imperial (皇家的) family being a good example, have hereditary diseases. This means their children will for sure have the family disease, which is a great trouble for these families. In the past, doctors could do nothing about hereditary diseases. But gene technology can solve this problem perfectly. The scientist just need to find the wrong gene and correct it, and a healthy child will be born.

Some people are worrying that the gene research can be used to manufacture human beings in large quantities. In the past few years, scientists have succeeded in cloning a sheep, therefore these people predict that human babies would soon be cloned. But I believe cloned babies will not come out in large quantities, for most couples in the world can have babies in very normal way. Of course, the governments must take care to control gene technology.

1.What does “them” in the second paragraph refer to ?

A. People with cancer or heart disease.

B. Millions of people with serious diseases.

C. Some diseases doctors can do nothing with.

D. The two illnesses of cancer and heart disease

2.What can gene technology do according to paragraph three?

A. It can help the English imperial family out.

B. It can be used to clone human babies.

C. It can help people to give birth of a baby.

D. It is likely to treat hereditary diseases.

3.What are people worried about according to the passage?

A. Human babies may be cloned in a large scale.

B. Healthy human babies will soon be cloned.

C. Scientists may well find the wrong genes.

D. The government may not control gene techs.

4.This passage is mainly written to _________________.

A. show gene technology will benefit people

B. show gene technology will do harm as well

C. tell that gene technology is a hot topic

D. tell that gene technology is growing fast

Having a great collection of books at home doesn’t really mean that you are a person who has a passion for literature and reading. It can be a family inheritance(承) or it can be just to impress people around you about the fact that you are a person of culture. On the other hand, there are many persons who cannot afford to buy books, because some of them are quite expensive, but they usually go to libraries and spend hours reading something that interests them a lot, or just borrow books to read at home. From my point of view, literature is very important in our lives from several points of view. For e xample, reading is a means of gaining culture and enriching our knowledge in different areas of activities. It can help us have a great imagination and it makes things easier when it comes to making compositions on different themes. It gives you the possibility to speak about science, even if you don’t work in this field, or you can express your opinion about a political aspect, just because you have read something conne cted to that.

Secondly, literature offers us the possibility to enter the world of imagination, and to leave apart the real one for a couple of hours. We come to meet kings and queens many years ago, dream in the world of the rich or imagine how life will be in the future. Sometimes, we identify ourselves with the characters in the stories we read and they can give us some clues to solve our problems and how to react in certain circumstances. To conclude, I would like to say that literature is the perfect means to enrich our culture, to express correctly and have a rich vocabulary, to be able to interfere(干涉) in conversations in different fields of interest and to really be considered an erudite person.

1. The people who are fond of literature are those that _________.

A. go to libraries on weekends

B. buy expensive books in the bookstore

C. keep many books in their studies

D. have much interest in reading

A. we can bring kings and queens back to life

B. what we read can be useful in our daily life

C. it is very good for us to stay alone for some hours

D. we can make friends with the people in the stories

3.The underlined word“erudite”in the last paragraph probably means_________.

A. hard-working B. enthusiastic

C. learned D. creative

4. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage？

A. To advise readers to like reading.

B. To explain the true meaning of reading.

C. To tell readers how to read a book.

D. To tell readers who has the real passion for literature.

People are overweight for many reasons, the most important one of which is that they eat the wrong foods, get the wrong types ofcalories per meal, and they also eat meals at the wrong time each day. Food is more powerful than any weight loss pill, because the food that you eat can either make you thin or fat. This is true because your body is like an engine, and it only needs certain foods at certainintervals(间隔) each day.

Low-calorie Diets Do Not Work

The reason people cannot lose weight by starving themselves is that their metabolism(新陈代谢) will detect any major drop in calories and it will then adjust itself by burning fewer calories each day. That is the reason why you can eat 1,000 calories per day and not lose any weight, while your friends can eat 2,500 calories per day and not gain any weight.

Low-fat Diets Do Not Work

Many people in today’s society are buying mostly low-fat or non-fat food at the grocery store. Everybody knows how much fat is inside the food they buy. However, people are getting fatter than ever before by doing this. They are not losing weight by changing to this low-fat lifestyle.

Losing weight has nothing to do with these things. One of the most important things you can do to control your weight is to eat the proper foods, such as fruit and vegetables, eat them at the right time, and exercise every day. If people make this a habit, they will lose weight.

1.What is the main reason why people are overweight?

A. They burn many calories every day.

B. They eat the wrong foods at the wrong time.

C. They eat food with lots of calories.

D. They don’t take weight loss pills.

2.The article is written in order to________.

A. tell readers not to buy low-fat or non-fat food.

B.tell readers about an important scientific discovery.

C .tell readers how to lose weight.
