4、aside city of Marseille in the South of France!Marseille was a lovely city with easy access to the Sea，also with pretty sandy beachesThe gorgeous crystal clear blue water made it unlike any beach day in America!Not only were the beaches amazing,but the city of Marseille was adorable and filled with
5、numerous cute shops and seaside restaurants.And the Mediterranean-style food was delicious!

Grace Bush is one of them. The only difference? Grace is jus
9、t 16 years old. Yes, thats right-at the age when most teenagers have not even completed high school, Grace has graduated from Florida Atlantic University (FAU) with a bachelors degree in criminal justice and a minor in Spanish. Whats even more astonishing is that the brilliant girl received her high
10、 school diploma from Florida Atlantic University High School on May 9th, a week after she graduated from college!Graces unique situation was made possible thanks to FAUs policies that allow motivated students to take high school and college courses simultaneously.Though this youngest FAU graduate in
11、 over a century has attracted national attention, for Grace, she has a different opinion. Her 19-year-old sister Gisla, who is now studying for a masters degree in urban planning also graduated at 16, while her 17-year-old sister Gabrielle will receive her masters degree and graduate from FAU this s
12、ummer.Graces education began when she was just a baby. Though she was never formally taught how to read, she simply learned by watching her sisters. So her mother, a full-time homeschool teacher, decided to include Grace in all the school courses she had with her older sisters. By 13, the homeschool
13、ed girl was ready for high school and college!And the young girl is far from done yet. She plans to return to FAU in the fall to pursue a masters degree.

17、h periods when the people in our lives have changedgraduation, moving to a new city, getting a new job, joining a new club, etc. I dont think I need to convince you just how much influence other people can have over your identity. If youve ever experienced a major switch in your people environment,
18、then you know that you change as well.Most people dont make these choices consciously, though. You might consciously decide to spend more time with a certain friend, or you may ask someone out on a date to begin a new relationship. But few people choose their existing friendships deliberately.Theres
19、 no “getting rid of people”. People are always dropping into and out of each others lives. Associations grow into friendships, and friendships fade into associations. You dont get rid of anyone. The truth is that in order to make room for new people and new experiences, you may need to loosen up som
20、e of your existing connections.What about loyalty? Shouldnt you always be loyal to your friends? Once you have a close friend, even if his influence on you is slightly harmful, shouldnt you stick by him?Loyalty to a friend sometimes means having to let go. It means being loyal to his highest and bes
21、t self as well. If someone is destroying his health by smoking, for example, you arent showing loyalty by smoking right along with him. True loyalty sometimes requires that you break damaging connections, get yourself back on solid ground, and then decide what you can really do to help your friend.I
22、t can take a lot of courage to tell someone, “Im sorry, but I cant have you in my life anymore.” But even though this might seem like a selfish act at times, its often the best thing for the other person, too. If a relationship is holding you back in some way, understand that its also hurting the ot
23、her person. For example, if you work for a violent boss, your acceptance of that situation is considered to be silent approval, encouraging your boss to continue to behave violently.28When experiencing major life changes, people may _.A. join a new social communityB. influence their friend aroundC.
24、choose their friendships purposelyD. have their people environment changed29What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 mean?A. Everyone has at least one friend.B. It is unnecessary to make new friends.C. Friendships still exist though there are fewer connections.D. You ought to treat your old
25、and new friends equally.30What is the authors opinion on the loyalty to friends?A. Never betray your close friends whatever happens.B. Correct their mistakes while you guard their goodness.C. Stick by your friends even though they do harm to you.D. Break up with your friends immediately if they smok
26、e.31How should we behave when employed by a violent boss?A. We should accept what we are told to do.B. We should stay silent and be in favor of him.C. We should bravely disobey him if he is wrong.D. We should give our boss courage to continue.DAs a child, visiting the zoo was more a punishment than
27、a treat. I didnt find the chimps tea parties funny, nor the bird shows entertaining. Feeding time for seals was less painful, but their performances still seemed like they belonged more in a circus.And I hated circuses, especially the animal acts men teasing lions, girls balancing on elephants and m
28、onkeys playing football. I knew that every trick a circus animal did was unnatural, achieved through strict training and quite possibly cruelty.Happily, during my lifetime public attitudes and the law have changed. Circuses using wild animals are now almost extinct, and zoos have definitely evolved.
29、When my children were young, I occasionally took them to our local zoo. The elephants were in tiny cages and the gorillas looked bored as they sat peeling bananas and staring at teasing visitors. Each cage had a sign which listed the animals name and where it came from. But, back then, there was lit
30、tle information included about the environmental challenges they faced.As a result, environmentalists and animal lovers often oppose zoos. “Animals belong in the wild,” is a common and understandable complaint. But what do the animals themselves prefer?Generally speaking, zoo animals have a longer l
31、ife. But you may protest they are not free. What? Free to be hunted and killed, free to die of hunger or thirst? Maybe sitting in a cage eating bananas isnt so bad.Not that such conditions are acceptable in modern zoos, due to the work of BIAZA, the British and Irish Association of Zoos and Aquarium
32、s. These days every zoo requires BIAZAs approval to operate, and the association sets the standards, observes conditions in zoos and develops animal-research programmes, both in the UK and abroad. BIAZA also organizes the animal exchanges between zoos all over the world. Consequently, today, most zo
33、o animals are born and raised in zoos, live in large, comfortable enclosures and are cared for by well-trained, knowledgeable and caring zoo employees. Of course its no substitute for living in the wild but unfortunately this isnt always possible. Meanwhile, why not visit your local zoo and decide f
34、or yourself?32. The passage is mainly about_.A. how zoos have improvedB. whether a zoo should be closed downC. a new environmental organizationD. the difference between zoos and circuses33. From Paragraph 2, we can guess that the writer believes circus animals_.A. had much shorter lives than those i
35、n the wildB. were not treated well by their trainersC. should have been placed in zoosD. were not as intelligent as those in zoos34. Which of the following roles are performed by BIAZA?A. Organizing animal study projects and training zoo workers.B. Checking zoo conditions and arranging animal exchan
36、ges.C. Designing zoos and approving zoo operations.D. Caring for ill animals and setting zoo standards.35. Which of the following statements about zoos would the writer agree with?A. Zoo animals should be freed into the wild.B. Zoos are more popular now than in the past.C. Zoo animals are more restr
37、icted than in the past.D.

53、3444546这个工作可让学生分组负责收集整理,登在小黑板上,每周一换。要求学生抽空抄录并且阅读成诵。其目的在于扩大学生的知识面,引导学生关注社会,热爱生活,所以内容要尽量广泛一些,可以分为人生、价值、理想、学习、成长、责任、友谊、爱心、探索、环保等多方面。如此下去,除假期外,一年便可以积累40多则材料。如果学生的脑海里有了众多的鲜活生动的材料,写起文章来还用乱翻参考书吗?47“师”之概念，大体是从先秦时期的“师长、师傅、先生”而来。其中“师傅”更早则意指春秋时国君的老师。说文解字中有注曰：“师教人以道者之称也”。“师”之含义，现在泛指从事教育工作或是传授知识技术也或是某方面有特长值得学习者。
54、“老师”的原意并非由“老”而形容“师”。“老”在旧语义中也是一种尊称，隐喻年长且学识渊博者。“老”“师”连用最初见于史记，有“荀卿最为老师”之说法。慢慢“老师”之说也不再有年龄的限制，老少皆可适用。只是司马迁笔下的“老师”当然不是今日意义上的“教师”，其只是“老”和“师”的复合构词，所表达的含义多指对知识渊博者的一种尊称，虽能从其身上学以“道”，但其不一定是知识的传播者。今天看来，“教师”的必要条件不光是拥有知识，更重于传播知识。48495051525354555657585960第二节 语法填空。（共10小题每小题1.5分，共15分）阅读下面材料，在下面有题号61-70的横线上填入适当的内容
