二、阅读理解(11-30)

Praise is a powerful tool but many parents have misconceptions about what it does and how it works. Praise encourages motivation and confidence, but a surprising number of people think it' s the cause of jealousy, laziness and resentment. What are the most common assumptions about praise?

"There's no need to say anything. "

If things are going well, you may think there' s no need to say anything. This attitude can be summed up as " if I don' t say anything, then everything' s OK". What this really means is "I' ll only say something when there is something to criticize".

"If I say ' well done' , they' 11 stop trying. "

Do you think that if you compliment your children they' 11 slack off? If we are praised for a job well done, it generally encourages us to do better, not worse. The disappointment we feel when good work is not recognized gives rise to the feeling "why should I bother if nobody notices?"

"If I praise one, the others will be jealous. "

If you are honest and fair in your praise and recognize the special talents of each child, they won' t resent praise given to their siblings(兄弟姐妹). Each will feel valued for the unique individuals they are. Children who feel good about themselves are usually generous in their praise of other people. Never use praise of one as a way of implicitly ( 含蓄地 ) criticizing another. For example,"you' re always so cheerful..." with its implied message " ...unlike your moody brother".

"What if there' s nothing to praise?"

There is always something to praise. You have to catch your child doing something right. Have a positive attitude to the things he does and remember the praise must always be genuine. Your child will quickly sense when you are lying.

11.Many parents have misunderstandings about__________.

A. how powerful praise is

B. what praise is

C. what praise does and how it works

D. how to give genuine praises to their children

答案：C

12.Why do some parents consider it unnecessary to say anything to praise their children?

A. Because they think things aren't always going well.

B. Because they don' t like to praise their children.

C. Because they only think it necessary to say something when there is something to criticize.

D. Because they don' t like to criticize their children.

答案：C

13.When you are praising one kid, you should__________.

A. praise other kids too

B. explain the kid' s special talents

C. tell others to be generous and not to be jealous

D. make sure you don' t hurt another kid indirectly

答案：D

14.Children who __________are usually generous in their praise of other people.

A. feel good about themselves

答案：A

15.Which of the following may be the best title for this passage?

A. How to Be Good Parents

B. Misunderstandings About Praise

C. The Power of the Praise

D. All Kids Love Praises

答案：B

Suppose we built a robot to explore the planet Mars(火星). We provide the robot with seeing detectors to keep it away from danger. It is powered entirely by the sun. Should we program the robot to be equally active at all times? No. The robot would be using up energy at a time when it was not receiving any. So we would probably program it to cease its activity at night and to wake up at dawn the next morning.

According to the evolutionary theory of sleep, evolution equipped us with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking for the same reason. The theory does not deny that sleep provides some important restorative(促进康复的 ) functions. It merely says that evolution has programmed us to perform those functions at a time when activity would be inefficient and possibly dangerous. However, sleep protects us only from the sort of trouble we might walk into; it does not protect us from trouble that comes looking for us. So we sleep well when we are in a familiar, safe place, but we sleep lightly, if at all, when we fear that bears will nose into the tent.

The evolutionary theory accounts well for differences in sleep among creatures. Why do cats, for instance, sleep so much, while horses sleep so little? Surely cats do not need five times as much repair and restoration as horses do. But cats can afford to have long periods of inactivity because they spend little time eating and are unlikely to be attacked while they sleep. Horses must spend almost all their waking hours eating, because what they eat is very low in energy value. Moreover, they cannot afford to sleep too long or too deeply, because their survival depends on their ability to run away from attackers.

16.The author uses the example of the robot in space exploration to tell us __________.

A. the difference between robots and men

B. the reason why men need to sleep

C. about the need for robots to save power

D. about the danger of men working at night

答案：B

17.Evolution has programmed man to sleep at night chiefly to help him __________.

A. maintain a regular pattern of life

B. prevent trouble that comes looking for him

C. avoid danger and inefficient labor

D. restore his bodily functions

答案：C

18.According to the author, we cannot sleep well when we __________.

A. are worrying about our safety

B. are overworked

C. are in a tent

D. are away from home

答案：A

19.Cats sleep much more than horses do partly because cats__________.

A. need more time for restoration

B. are unlikely to be attacked

C. are more active than horses when they are awake

D. spend less time eating to get enough energy

答案：D

20.Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?

A. Evolution has equipped all creatures with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking.

B. The study of sleep is an important part of the evolutionary theory.

C. Sleeping patterns must be taken into consideration in the designing of robots.

D. The sleeping pattern of a living creature is determined by the food it eats.

答案：A

That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.

As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.

About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun.

The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet failing to the sidewalk.

Suddenly I wasn' t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back where I' d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.

Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck pull up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside, "Alisa Camacho?" I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eye. "Is this what you' re looking for?" he asked, holding up a small square shape.

It was nearly 3 A.M. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn' t get much sleep that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn' t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.

Imagine the most famous person you know, Michael Jordan, Britney Spears, Prince William. Now think of this: Not one of them is as famous as Helen Keller was in her day.

Back in the late l$00s, nobody believed that blind or deaf people could lead normal lives. Most were sent away from their homes.

They lived in schools that were more like prison than places to learn and grow. Few people believed that a person who was both blind and deaf could ever learn to communicate. But Annie Sullivan believed she could teach 7-year-old Helen Keller language.

When Annie first met Helen in 1887, Helen was wild and angry. She spoke by grunting (咕哝) and screaming. Nobody, not even Helen's parents, believed Annie would succeed. And when she did succeed, news of this miracle (奇迹) spread far.

Helen often said that she had spent her early childhood in a "dungeon (地牢) of silence" and loneliness. Freed from this dungeon by Annie, Helen blossomed. By the age of lO, Helen was able to write and read Braille. In addition to English, Helen also learned French and Greek: She even learned to talk clearly enough so that Annie could understand her.

She became an author, writing 13 books and hundreds of articles. She and Annie traveled around the world. She learned to ride a horse and a bike. When she died, just before her 88th birthday, she had become one of America' s great heroes.

"Life," Helen once said, "is either a daring adventure or nothing".

四、翻译(51)

51.What is your favourite colour? Do you like yellow, orange, red? If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader,an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer greys and blues? Then you are probablyquiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be a pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colour preference, as well as the effect that colours have on human beings. They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favourite colour as we grow up--we are born with our preference. If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.

答案：你最喜欢什么色彩?你喜欢黄色、橙色和红色吗?倘若如此，你准是一个乐观的人，一个领导者，一个享受人生、乐于交往、容易激动、积动向上的人。你偏爱灰、蓝系列色彩吗?那么，你很可能缄默、羞怯，你宁愿被别人领导而不愿领导别人。你有悲观者的倾向。至少，这是心理学家告诉我们的——心理学家应该是这方面的专家，因为他们一直在认认真真地研究色彩偏爱的意义以及各种色彩对人的不同影响。他们告诉我们许多东西，其中之一是我们并不是在成长过程中挑选自己偏爱的色彩——我们的这种偏爱与生俱来。假设你碰巧喜欢褐色，当你一睁开眼看到这个世界，或至少当你看清这个世界的时候，你就喜欢上褐色了。

五、写作(52)

52.Directions: You are to write in no less than 120 words on the topic of “What I am proud of doing in my work OR my study”.Note: Choose only one to write about.Your writing may be based on the Chinese outline give below:

我在工作/学习中值得骄傲的事情是……

骄傲的理由是……

结论。

答案： What I am proud of doing in my study

As a student, the most remarkable thing I ever remembered is doing chemical experiments. This is also what I am proud of doing in my study. I cherish every chance when there is a time for doing experiments. The reasons may be listed as the following.

To begin with, doing chemical experiments is a good way to deepen my understanding of what I have learned in my chemistry class. Learning science is absolutely different from learning humanistic subjects. It emphasizes more on the application of book knowledge. When doing experiments, I am happy to check the knowledge in my textbook during the process of experiment and it is in this process that I developed a strong interest in chemistry and laid a solid foundation for my further study. Secondly, doing experiments is beneficial for developing a strict and precise attitude toward science. I should be extreme careful when designing experiments because no small mistakes are allowed, otherwise I cannot obtain the expected results. Besides, since it is very easy for various chemical elements to react when mixed together, I should decide the precise amount used in experiments. All these contribute to develop a strict mind.

To conclude, doing chemical experiments is the most rewarding experiences in my study. I am proud of the ability in doing experiments.
