3.Proudly reading my words,I glanced around the room,only to find my classmates bearing big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes.Confused,I glanced toward my stone-faced teacher.Having no choice,I slowly raised the report I had slaved over,hoping to hide myself."What could be causing everyone to act this way?"
Quickly,I flashed back to the day Miss Lancelot gave me the task.This was the first real talk I received in my new school.It seemed simple:go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington.Since my idea of history came from an ancient teacher in my home country,I had never heard of that name before.As I searched the name of this fellow,it became evident that there were two people bearing the same name who looked completely different!One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts,while the other led some sort of army across America.I stared at the screen,wondering which one my teacher meant.I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice:flip (掷) a coin.Heads-the commander,and tails-the peanuts guy.Ah!Tails,my report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter,George Washington
Weeks later,standing before this unfriendly mass,I was totally lost.Oh well,I lowered the paper and sat down at my desk,burning to find out what I had done wrong.As a classmate began his report,it all became clear,"My report is on George Washington,the man who started the American Revolution."The whole world became quite!How could I know that she meant that George Washington?
Obviously,my grade was awful.Heartbroken but fearless,I decided to turn this around.I talked to Miss Lancelot,but she insisted:No re-dos; no new grade.I felt that the punishment was not justified,and I believed I deserved a second chance.Consequently,I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year.Ten months later,that chance unfolded as I found myself sitting in the headmaster's office with my grandfather,now having an entirely different conversation.I smiled and flashed back to the embarrassing moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster informed me of my chance to skip the sixth grade.Justice is sweet!

A.He was unfamiliar with American history.
B.He followed the advice and flipped a coin.
C.He forgot his teacher's instruction.
D.He was new at the school.

C.with the help of his grandfather
D.under the guidance of his headmaster.

分析 文章介绍了主人公"我"在完成老师交待的任务时,对美国历史不是很熟悉,介绍的华盛顿这个人物不是历史上领导美国革命的华盛顿,而是另外一个人.在课堂上,读自己写的有关人物的报告时,引起了同学的嘲笑,分数也很低,接下来的时间,主人公"我"努力学习,并最终取得了好的成绩.

解答 33.A  细节理解题.由第二自然段I had never heard of that name before.As I searched the name of this fellow,it became evident that there were two people bearing the same name who looked completely different!One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts,while the other led some sort of army across America.I stared at the screen,wondering which one my teacher meant.可知以前,我从未听说过这个名字,但查找之后发现有两个人的名字一样,而又是完全不同的两个人,一个是发现了花生的数百种用法的人,一个是领导了美国的革命,我也不知道,老师指的是哪一个.由此可知,"我"对美国的历史是不了解的.故选A.

8.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.

11.ALL NEW REPTILE PETTING ZOO
at the Oak Park Nature Center
Kids!Are you tired of Mom or Dad dragging you to the same old petting zoos,where (if you're lucky) you might get to touch a little rabbit or goat?
Mom or Dad!Are you tired of hearing your kids complain about how animals in the same old petting zoos are monotonous?
Consider This:
The fact is that most mammals are boringly warm,furry,and come in a limited range of dull colors.Reptiles,on the other hand,are cold-blooded and covered with scale of attractive colors,from bright green to bright red to dark purple-red.Some,like the chameleon,can even CHANGE colors.Did you ever see a rabbit with scales and a purple tongue almost as long as its body?NO!In our zoos,you can see pet skink,snakes,bearded dragons,and other fascinating creatures!Learn what these reptiles eat and how they care for their babies,which ones live in the desert and which live in wetlands,which ones are meat-eaters and which are vegetarians,which ones are deadly poisonous and which are not.
So Remember:
If you're bored with furry animals like rabbits…
Then the place for YOU is the Reptile Petting Zoo!
Bring the WHOLE family-Grandpa,Grandma,Cousin Irene,even baby Joe!There's something for EVERYONE!

8.BEING an astronaut sounds cool,doesn't it?In space,they get to do some pretty amazing things,like floating in zero gravity(重力).
However,there are also plenty of things that astronauts can't do because of their weightless environment,and that's very sad.What's worse,they can't even let their sadness show-because it's impossible to cry in zero gravity.
Of course,astronauts can still produce tears.But crying is much more difficult in space,reported The Atlantic in January.Without gravity,tears don't flow downward out of the eyes like they do here on Earth.This means that when you cry in space,your tears have nowhere to go-they just stick to your eyes.
In May 2011,astronaut Andrew Feustel experienced this during one of his spacewalks."Tears,"he said,"don't fall off of your eye…They just kind of stay there."
Besides making your vision unclear,this can also cause physical pain.Back on Earth,tears are supposed to bring comfort to the eyes.But that's not the case in space.The space environment dries out astronauts'eyes,and when tears suddenly wet the eyes,it can cause pain rather than comfort."My right eye is painful like crazy."Feustel told his teammate during the walk.
Since gravity doesn't work in space,astronauts need some extra help to get rid of the tears.Feustel chose to rub his eyes against his helmet to wipe the tears away.Another choice is to just wait-"When the tears get big enough they simply break free of the eye and float around,"astronaut Ron Parise told The Atlantic.
There are lots of small things-things like crying-that we are so used to on Earth.We usually take them for granted,until they become a problem in a totally different environment,like space.There,astronauts can't talk to each other directly.They also can't eat or drink in normal ways.They can't even burp (打嗝),because there is no gravity to hold the food down in their stomach.If they do burp,they just end up throwing up (呕吐) everything in their stomach,according to the UK National Space Center.
Thus,perhaps it's only space explorers who can honestly say:"Gravity,you're the best."
24.What can we conclude from paragraphs 2 and 3?D
A.Astronauts are unable to feel sad in space.
B.Astronauts produce fewer tears in space.
C.Tears produced in space flow down more slowly.
D.Tears produced in space don't flow downward.
25.What effect do tears have on astronauts?A
A.They cause physical pain.
B.They bring comfort to them.
C.They make their vision clearer.
D.They float around and cause trouble.
26.What can the astronaut do to get rid of the tears?D
A.Rub his eyes against his helmet to let the tears float forward.
B.Rub his eyes by hand to let the tears float around.
C.Get the tears big enough to fall off of his eyes.
D.Get the tears big enough to break away from his eyes.
27.What's the second-to-last paragraph mainly about?B
A.Suggestions on how astronauts can stay comfortable in space.
B.Other basic things that are difficult to do in space.
C.Why burping is impossible in space.
D.Things that humans can't do without gravity.
12.You've probably heard of working dogs that help police officers,or horses that help farmers.Did you know that carrier pigeons(信鸽)can be trained to help people too?Here are some examples.
Mailman
Carrier pigeons can be trained to carry messages to people.The note is placed into a small can.The can is tied to the pigeon's leg.Then the pigeon flies off with the note.
Lifeguard
From high up in the sky,specially trained pigeons can find orange life jackets in the ocean.Sometimes it is difficult for humans to find people lost at sea,especially when the weather is bad.However,pigeons can fly quickly over a large area of water to look for people.
Spy
Many years ago,carrier pigeons were used to help our ountry during wars (战争)."Spy pigeons"had small cameras that were tied to their feet.As a pigeon flew over enemy (敌人)land,the camera took photos of the land below.This would allow our soldiers to see where the enemies were and what they were doing.
So next time you see a pigeon,stop and watch it closely.What might look like an ordinary bird to most people,might actually be helpful.
5.What kind of people can the carrier pigeons find?A
A.The people in orange life jackets at sea.
B.The people in red jackets in the boats.
C.The people swimming in the ocean.
D.The people lost in the mountains.
6.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?D
A.A pigeon could predict what the weather would be like.
B.A pigeon was tied with a small camera around its leg.
C.A pigeon could help us to know the number of the enemy.
D.A pigeon carried the camera to take photos of the enemy land.
7.What kind of jobs are mentioned for a carrier pigeon?A
A.A mailman,a lifeguard and a spy.
B.A trainer,a spy and a police officer.
C.A soldier,a police officer and a mailman.
D.A farmer,a weather reporter and a lifeguard.
8.What is the purpose of writing this article?C
A.To make readers like pigeons more.
B.To teach readers about the lives of wild pigeons.
C.To tell readers about real jobs held by carrier pigeons.
D.To share science fictions about pigeons helpin people.
13.The United States government has decided that food from cloned(克隆) cattle,pigs and goats is safe to eat.The Food and Drug Administration also says it found no risks in meat and milk from cloned animals.
The F.D.A.looked at studies for several years before it announced its decision in a final report this month.The United States Department of Agriculture supported the findings.But it says time is needed to clear the way for marketing meat and milk from clones.
The F.D.A.will not require any product to be registered(注册) as coming from clones.A producer would need to label a product"clone-free".The agency says that could be misunderstood because the food is not different from other food.
But activists argue that the F.D.A.based its decision on incomplete research into possible risks.The Center for Food Safety criticized the use of studies supplied by cloning companies.Animal rights activists point out that cloning attempts often fail.They say cloning is cruel and can lead to suffering.
Congress (国会) has been trying to get the F.D.A.to do more studies.But the agency noted that experts in New Zealand and the European Union had come to the same findings about the safety of food from clones.Japan,South Korea and Taiwan say they want to study it further before taking action.
Products from cloning may not be widely used for several years.Clones cost much,which is why they are not widely used for feeding.The Agriculture Department says few clones will ever become food.Their traditionally raised animals would enter the food supply instead.
13.What is the best title for this passage?B
A.Is Food from Cloned Animals Safe?
B.A New Clone Policy
C.A Big Danger-Cloned Food    
D.Cloned Products-A Terrible Choice
14.Why are products from cloning not widely used for feeding?D
A.Because cloning attempts often fail.
B.Because they are not safe to eat.
C.Because cloning is cruel.
D.Because they are expensive.
15.Where can you probably see the passage?B
A.In a novel.
B.In a newspaper.
C.In a travel leaflet.
D.In a notice on the wall.
