【題目】 Everybody has a different opinion on what qualities make a good person. Some might consider honesty and devotion to be very important. 【1】 , but I believe that the ability to be optimistic is the most essential quality. I also think having a sense of humor and a smile is very important.

Voltaire once said “Life is a shipwreck (沉船), but we must not forget to sing in the lifeboat.” Life isn’t perfect, but why should we focus on the imperfections of life when we can smile. Being positive means looking out the window at a thunderstorm and saying “Wow, the plant will be watered.” If you look up the definition for laugh in a dictionary, it would say “to make sounds from the throat while breathing out in short bursts as a way of expressing amusement.” 【2】. It is like a cure for cancer or an umbrella in the rain. Laughter can protect you from the harmful rays of grief. I believe comedians are the true doctors of this world. 【3】. Laughter truly is the most effective and side effect-free medicine in the world.

【4】. Whether you are from China, France, or Germany, you smile in the same language. A smile has the power to make someone’s day. If you smile at someone, they will probably smile back. Therefore, smile all the time and pretty soon the whole planet will wear a happy smile. Life is like a mirror, and we get the best results when we smile at it.

Laugh your heart out, think optimistically, and don’t forget to smile. Imagine the world to be a happy and safe place to live. I have the power to make the world a better place. 【5】.

A.Life is a bed of roses

B.Laughter is much more than that

C.I agree that these qualities are vital

D.One’s happiness depends on his / her philosophy of life

E.You have that power to make the world a different place, too

F.They give you a free prescription every time you come to their office

【答案】

【1】C

【2】B

【3】F

【4】G

【5】E

【題目】 I entered a cabinetmaking(家具制造)program. I didn’t think I would be good at making furniture. I’m not handy. Nobody in my family is.

I had great teachers, but making furniture is hard. There are so many steps and something can go wrong at each one. I couldn’t even get organized. My toolbox always looked as if a hurricane had gone through it.

I didn’t fully know what I was committed to in the beginning, but I kept attending class. I tried to be wrapped up in math. The projects forced me to solve new kinds of problems. My brain started to build new connections. Working in this new physical manner and giving it 100 percent of my effort had huge benefits for my mental health. I got over my fear of embarrassment and asked for help at every opportunity.

I spent that year truly learning. True learning is the most challenging experience, especially for those of us who are learning a new set of skills. I could understand exactly what was wrong with the furniture I made, but I couldn’t fix those problems. And yet, I kept trying. I failed again and again, until I learned to fail better.

In the end, I finished the program—with honors, no less! My grades were helped by my good written work. I also learned how to use tools. Having to constantly push myself to step outside my comfort zone has made me a more well-rounded person.

Maybe most importantly, the school gave me a more realistic idea of my strengths and limitations. I’m stronger than I thought!

【1】What can we know about the author from the first two paragraphs?

A.She had a gift for making furniture.B.She lacked practical skills.

C.She disliked making everything in a mess.D.She went to the program to surprise her family.

【2】What was the biggest challenge the author encountered?

A.Physical condition.B.Psychological preparation.

C.To know how to correct mistakes.D.Not being good at math.

【3】What do you think of the author?

A.Hard-working and determined.B.Confident and efficient.

C.Cooperative and creative.D.Modest and talented.

【4】What did the author benefit most from the project?

A.She won an award for good writing.B.She became stronger both mentally and physically.

C.She became skillful at making furniture.D.She had a better understanding of herself.

The good news is that it’s simple to learn and can be worth the effort.

There is also the matter of tone(語氣). Who hasn’t received an email so annoying that it ruined an entire day? 【4】. Emoji can help communication feel friendlier, and even a serious note can be softened with an encouraging smile.

【題目】 It is no secret that physical activity is necessary to a person’s well-being. Because children are continuously developing physically and emotionally, they are especially affected by the benefits of activity. Former First Lady Michelle Obama’s Let’s Move initiative reports that nearly one-third of US children are overweight or obese, and that “schools are a key setting for kids to get their 60 minutes of play with moderate activity, given the significant portion of time they spend there.”

Physical education programs in schools directly benefit students’ physical health. Regular exercise promotes muscles and bone development. In addition to participating in physical activity, students in P.E. learn the fundamentals of a healthful lifestyle, the building blocks upon which they can develop into healthy, knowledgeable adults.

Though the lack of attention on P.E. is often justified as an opportunity to spend more time in the classroom, studies show that physical activity contributes to improved academic performance. Regular activity during the school day is strongly associated with higher concentration levels. A statewide policy in North Carolina requires that children from kindergarten to eighth grade participate in 30 minutes of physical activity each day.

Activities in P.E. help children develop healthful social interactions. From a young age, children learn cooperation through group activities and form a positive sense of identity as part of a team. Such group activities are continually important as children grow older. The International Platform on Sport and Development states that sport has been used as a practical tool to engage young people in their communities through volunteering, resulting in higher levels of leadership and community engagement among young people.

The benefits of P.E. to a child’s mental health are both complex and comprehensive. Improved physical health, academics and social interactions all contribute to good mental health. Physical activity sets the stage for a good night’s sleep, provides more energy to participate in hobbies and interact with others.

【1】The first paragraph implies that .

A.children are becoming much lazier nowadays

B.some schools have forbidden physical activity

C.most parents are dissatisfied with school education

D.schools must pay more attention to physical education

【2】Physical education is ignored in a way because .

A.children dislike taking physical activityB.schools are worried about children’s safety

C.students should have more time for studyD.less sporting equipment is available to school children

【3】What is the author’s possible attitude towards the policy in North Carolina?

A.Skeptical.B.Favorable.

C.Ambiguous.D.Objective.

【4】Which is NOT a benefit of P. E. classes?

A.They assure you of a successful future.B.They keep your mind in a good state.

C.They help you focus on your studies.D.They do good to your social skills.

【題目】 When you were trying to figure out what to buy for the environmentalist on your holiday list, fur probably didn’t cross your mind. But some ecologists and fashion (時(shí)裝)enthusiasts are trying to bring back the market for fur made from nutria(海貍鼠).

Unusual fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn have(showcased)nutria fur made into clothes in different styles. “It sounds crazy to talk about guilt-free fur-unless you understand that the nutria are destroying vast wetlands every year”, says Cree McCree, project director of Righteous Fur.

Scientists in Louisiana were so concerned that they decided to pay hunters $5 a tail. Some of the fur ends up in the fashion shows like the one in Brooklyn last month.

Nutria were brought there from Argentina by fur farmers and let go into the wild. “The ecosystem down there can’t handle this non-native species(物種).It’s destroying the environment. It’s them or us.” says Michael Massimi, an expert in this field.

The fur trade kept nutria check for decades，but when the market for nutria collapsed in the late 1980s，the cat-sized animals multiplied like crazy.

Biologist Edmond Mouton runs the nutria control program for Louisiana. He says it’s not easy to convince people that nutria fur is green, but he has no doubt about it. Hunters bring in more than 300,000 nutria tails a year, so part of Mouton’s job these days is trying to promote fur.

Then there’s Righteous Fur and its unusual fashion. Model Paige Morgan says，”To give people a guilt-free option that they can wear without someone throwing paint on them-1 think that’s going to be a massive thing, at least here in New York.” Designer Jennifer Anderson admits it took her a while to come around to the opinion that using nutria fur for her creations is morally acceptable. She trying to come up with a lable to attach to nutria fashions to show it is eco-friendly.

【1】What is the purpose of the fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn?

A.To promote guilt-free fur.

B.To expand the fashion market.

C.To introduce a new brand.

D.To celebrate a winter holiday.

【2】Why are scientists concerned about nutria?

A.Nutria damage the ecosystem seriously.

B.Nutria are an endangered species.

C.Nutria hurt local cat-sized animals.

D.Nutria are illegally hunted.

【3】What does the underlined word “collapsed” in paragraph 5 probably mean?

A.Boomed.B.Became mature.C.Remained stable.D.Crashed.

【4】What can we infer abouf wearing fur in New York according to Morgan?

A.It’s formal.B.It’s risky.C.It’s harmful.D.It’s traditional.

【題目】 When “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” was first shown to the public last month, a group of excited animal activists gathered on Hollywood Boulevard. But they weren’t there to throw red paint on fur-coat-wearing film stars. Instead, one activist, dressed in a full-body monkey suit, had arrived with a sign praising the filmmakers: “Thanks for not using real apes (猿)!”

The creative team behind “Apes” used motion-capture (動(dòng)作捕捉) technology to create digitalized animals, spending tens of millions of dollars on technology that records an actor’s performance and later processes it with computer graphics to create a final image (圖像). In this case, one of a realistic-looking ape.

Yet “Apes” is more exception than the rule. In fact, Hollywood has been hot on live animals lately. One nonprofit organization, which monitors the treatment of animals in filmed entertainment, is keeping tabs on more than 2,000 productions this year. Already, a number of films, including “Water for Elephants,” “The Hangover Part Ⅱ” and “Zookeeper,” have drawn the anger of activists who say the creatures acting in them haven’t been treated properly.

In some cases, it’s not so much the treatment of the animals on set in the studio that has activists worried; it’s the off-set training and living conditions that are raising concerns. And there are questions about the films made outside the States, which sometimes are not monitored as closely as productions filmed in the States.

【1】Why did the animal activists gather on Hollywood Boulevard?

A.To see famous film stars.

B.To oppose wearing fur coats.

C.To raise money for animal protection.

D.To express thanks to some filmmakers.

【2】What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?

A.The cost of making “Apes.”

B.The creation of digitalized apes.

C.The publicity about “Apes.”

D.The performance of real apes.

【3】What does the underlined phrase “keeping tabs on” in paragraph 3 probably mean?

A.Listing completely.

B.Directing professionally.

C.Promoting successfully.

D.Watching carefully.

【4】What can we infer from the last paragraph about animal actors?

A.They may be badly treated.

B.They should take further training.

C.They could be traded illegally

D.They would lose popularity.

Last Friday our school hold a sports meeting successfully. As a sports lover, I took a active part in it. Of so many kinds of events, I signed up for the 800-meters running race. I took it for granted that I would win the race, because I thought it was my strong point. Beside, I had spent much time making preparations for it. However, much to my surprise, I was just on the point of arriving the finishing line while a boy went ahead of me. The boy, that was running so fast, finally got the first prize. At that moment, I couldn’t help feel a little disappointed. But under the help of my teachers and classmates, I cheered up soon. Although I missed the chance to get the first prize, but I benefited a lot from the experience.
