题目内容

1．On a hot summer's day Jonathan and his classmates were anxiously sitting in their classroom，waiting for the final bell of the day to sound．Jonathan prayed that the bell would ring soon，because he wanted to quickly run home before the three huge，fat，smelly bullies （地痞） could see him．Every day the three bullies would wait there for an innocent school kid to tease and bully．
The moment the bell sounded，Jonathan rushed out with his bag．He sped off across the school field and out onto the walkway．However，all of his effort was useless because leaning on a fence were the three bullies．
Jonathan thought about crossing the street next to him，but it would be too risky．So he hid behind a small bush in hope that the three would leave．But he moved too quickly and was seen by one of the bullies．They approached him then．
One bully grabbed Jonathan by the collar of his shirt and grabbed the money out of Jonathan's pocket and put it into his own．
"G-Give it back"，Jonathan weakly said．
"G-G-Give it b-back"，mocked （为了取笑而模仿） the bully．The other two bullies laughed．
Beside them was a small dirty stream．
"Let's throw him in there"，said one of the bullies．
Then they threw Jonathan into the stream and walked off down the walkway．Jonathan shakily picked himself up out of the creek and continued his walk home with his head down and tears in his eyes．He dared not cry because he knew boys didn't cry．
Jonathan arrived at his house where his mother was waiting outside the front door with an angry look on her face．
"Why are you so late and dirty？"she asked curiously．
"I slipped"，he quietly replied．
21．Why did Jonathan run home immediately after school？C
A．Because his mother was strict with him．
B．Because he was afraid of his mother．

6．I can well remember that I was once asked to deliver a speech titled A Real Test in My Life before the whole class at the age of 9!You can imagine how （36）terribly  （terrible）shy I was the moment I thought of that---with so many people（37）looking （look） at me．I had no  （38）choice （choose） but to prepare for it，though．First of all，I was to draft（起草） the speech，which was just a piece of cake for me，a good writer．But the hardest part （39）lay（lie） in my oral presentation from my memory，for to read from the paper was not allowed．The real moment began （40）whenI stood on the platform with my legs trembling and my mind blank．But my （41）listeners（listen） were waiting patiently without any signs of rushing me．Gradually I found myself back，giving out my speech with difficulty．After what seemed to be a hundred years，I found my audience applauding---I made （42）it！From then on，my fear of talking before a big audience（43）disappeared （appear）．Actually with my confidence building up，I now turn out to be a great speaker．Looking back，I know the greatest difficulty on our way （44）tosuccess is our fear．Overcome it，（45）and we will be able to achieve our goals．
13．Scientists at Harvard University have recycled a kidney（‘肾）-in a rat．The researchers removed a kidney from a dead rat．Later，the renewed kidney was put into a living rat．It wasn't perfect．It did，however，show signs of working like a kidney should．
"It's really beautiful work，"Edward Ross，a kidney researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville，told Science News．He didn't work on the new study．
Kidneys are bean-shaped and act like guards in the body．They clean the blood by removing waste and extra water．Every day，an adult's kidneys filter（过滤） enough blood to fill a bathtub half full．Along the way，they produce eight cups of urine（尿） from that waste and water．When a person's kidneys fail，all of that waste stays in the body．Such patients can quickly become very sick and die，unless they are regularly connected to a machine that filters their blood．
At any given time，about 100，000people in the United States are waiting for a replacement kidney．But healthy donated kidneys are difficult to get．Either a living person must donate one，or a kidney must be removed from someone who just died and earlier had agreed to the donation．In either case，people receiving new kidneys face the risk that their bodies will reject the donated ones．
But there may be another option．Researchers use knowledge of living things to grow or improve tissue that can aid human health．Harald Ott's team at Harvard started with a"used"kidney．
Scientists added kidney cells from rats and blood vessel cells from people to the matrix（母体）．These cells attached themselves and began to multiply．Before long，they formed new kidney tissue．
The scientists placed this renewed kidney into another rat．There it produced a small amount of urine．This experiment shows that the lab-grown kidney can do at least some of the work performed by a healthy kidney．
The results are a promising first step toward helping people with serious kidney problems．"This is still very early，but they've come a long way，"Ross said．

33．What does Paragraph 3mainly talk about？C
A．The relationship between kidneys and health．
B．The difficulty of curing serious kidney diseases．
C．The function and importance of kidneys．
D．The methods of curing kidneys diseases．
34．For what purpose does the author use the figure 100，000in Paragraph 4？B
A．To stress used kidneys are hard to get．
B．To show the great need for healthy kidneys．
C．To explain many American people get kidney diseases．
D．To call on people to donate kidneys．
35．Which of the following is true according to the text？A
A．The scientists are satisfied with the result of the experiment．
B．Ross is a kidney expert who is involved in the experiment．
C．The function of the renewed kidney is the same as a healthy kidney．
D．The renewed kidney produced a great deal of urine．

11．Have you ever found yourself in this situation：You hear a song you used to sing when you were a child-a bit of nostalgia（怀旧） or"blast from the past，"as we say．But it is not a distant childhood memory．The words come back to you as clearly as when you sang them all those years ago．
Researchers at the University of Edinburgh studied the relationship between music and remembering a foreign language．They found that remembering words in a song was the best way to remember even one of the most difficult languages．
Here is what they did．Researchers took 60adults and randomly divided them into three groups of 20．Then they gave the groups three different types of"listen-and-repeat"learning conditions．Researchers had one group simply speak the words．They had the second group speak the words to a rhythm，or beat．And they asked the third group to sing the words．
All three groups studied words from the Hungarian language for 15minutes．Then they took part in a series of language tests to see what they remembered．
Why Hungarian，you ask？Researchers said they chose Hungarian because not many people know the language．It does not share any roots with Germanic or Romance languages，such as Italian or Spanish．After the tests were over，the singers came out on top．The people who learned these new Hungarian words by singing them showed a higher overall performance．They did the best in four out of five of the tests．They also performed two times better than those who simply learned the words by speaking them．
Dr．Katie Overy says singing could lead to new ways to learn a foreign language．The brain likes to remember things when they are contained in a catchy 3，or memorable 4，tune 5．
Dr．Ludke said the findings could help those who struggle to learn foreign languages．On the University of Edinburgh's website Dr．Ludke writes，"This study provides the first experimental evidence that a listen-and-repeat singing method can support foreign language learning，and opens the door for future research in this area．"
9．The"song"mentioned in the first paragraph is intended toC．
A．recall the past                       
B．attract the readers
C．introduce the topic                   
D．compare the childhood with the present
10．According to the passage which language doesn't share the same root with Germanic or Romance languages？A
A．Hungarian      
B．Spanish      
C．Italian   
D．English
11．Based on the last two paragraphs，we can conclude thatB
A．singing is the best way to learn a language．
B．the brain probably works best when the foreign language learners sing the words．
C．a listen-repeat method is very effective for any language learner．
D．Dr．Katie Overy and Dr．Ludke disagree with each other．
12．In which situation can the finding of the research be applied？D
A．A mother is going to teach her baby how to speak．
B．A child is going to have his first music lesson．
C．A student is going to learn a new English song．
D．An American is going to learn some Chinese．
