25、s and playing games. Also I enjoyed listening to music, as well as singing songs. I didnt find myself very interested in musicuntil Miss Wang, my music teacher, came into my life.She was a young lady who looked just over 20 years old. She was pretty and gentle, with great patience. As a result, we p
26、upils loved her very much. But that was not the only reason we loved her. She has made such great influence on me that I cannot and will never forget her.In our music classes, Miss Wang sometimes played a short piece of music and asked us to repeat. It was a bit difficult for an eight-year-old child
27、 to do so and the pupils who were asked often couldnt repeat the whole piece perfectly.In one of those classes, some clever girls were chosen, and then followed by some pretty ones. A few of them could do a good job and gained Miss Wangs praise. Then, to everyones surprise, I became the one who was
28、chosen to do it. Surprised and anxious, I didnt know whether I would be a laughing stock. Miss Wang looked at me with a beautiful smile. At once I calmed myself and took great courage. At last I did very well and was said to be the best.Although such exercise was only a simple one and it was only a
29、small success for a pupil, it had a great impact on me. From then on I became braver and began to learn to face any difficulty in my life. And its also from then on that I knew I loved music very much. Very soon I managed to sing songs by following the music score. Miss Wang didnt say much to me, bu
30、t just looked at me happily. In fact, she was even happier than I was. But that was enough. For the first time did I find myself so wonderful.Miss Wang taught us for two years, during which we had the happiest time. Then I left my hometown and got to a town named Zhenhai. Since then I havent seen he
31、r any more.Maybe Miss Wang cant remember my name now, for she treats every pupil kindly. But she really has played a very important role in my life. Its she who turned a self-abased girl into a confident one. She also made me believe that love can accomplish miracles(奇迹).56. The underlined word “sel

34、her classmates encouraged herC. the teacher smiled at herD. she was said to be the bestBMy family and I have been living in the same six-family apartment building for eight years. The landlords family also lives there，and，generally speaking，all the people living here get along fairly well with each
35、other. Recently，however，there was a change in the apartment next to mine.A nice，quiet old couple used to live there. The old lady would sometimes bring over some cookies or small cakes she had made，and my mother in return would give them some food or help the old woman with her shopping. Unfortunate
36、ly，the old lady died last month. Her husband couldnt live alone，so his grandson moved in with him.The grandson，who is about twenty，has become a problem to my family. The walls of the building are thin and he is noisy. I am used to peace and quiet，but the grandson likes to listen to his radio late at
37、 night. Sometimes friends of his visit，and they make a lot of noise. Everyone in my family is bothered by my new neighbor and as a result is becoming more irritated.My mother once politely asked the old man if he was able to sleep well at night，but apparently he didnt get the hint. If he did underst
38、and my mothers intention and did speak to his grandson about it，the grandson apparently didnt listen，since things havent changed any.

41、 done. D. Whats wrong with him?CThomas Edison was interested in science at an early age. In order to make money for books and for his scientific experiments，Thomas sold vegetables from the family garden. This work did not make enough money，and so he began to sell newspapers. He traveled on trains to
42、 sell his newspapers. He began to do experiments on the trains too，and he brought a lot of machines and chemicals on them. The railway line was not very good，and one day a train suddenly shook a lot during a turn. Edison had a piece of phosphorus(磷) among his chemicals. Everything in the train shook
43、，and the phosphorus fell on the floor. It began to burn，as phosphorus often does. The train was soon burning. The inspector of the train was so angry that he threw Thomas and all his equipment off the train at the next station.After that Edison worked as a telegraph operator(发报员). As an operator he
44、had to work at night. During the day he read books and did experiments. The result was that he was very tired. Sometimes he slept at night so the other operators got angry with him. When they sent a message，Edison did not give an answer. They found that he was often asleep. They soon found a way to
45、keep him awake. They told him to telegraph the letter “A” every hour. In order to do this，he had to stay awake.Edison did not like this at all. He was too tired，so he invented a new machine which sent the letter “A” every hour. It never failed，for machines are not like people and they never forget t
46、o do what they are told to. The other operators received the letter “A” every hour.They could not believe it. One night they went quietly to his room. When they looked inside，they found that Edison was there sleeping，and his machine was sending the letter “A ”!64. Edison sold vegetables so that he c

48、. send the letter “A” by itselfB. keep himself awakeC. show he was cleverD. sell to his boss67. The best title of the passage should be _. A. An Introduction to Edison B. Edison and His FamilyC. Edison and His Experiments D. Edison and His MachinesDMore than 30 million kids buy school lunch each day
49、. This year, many schools raised lunch prices to fight rising costs. Students pay about $2 a meal now. That is 27 cents more than last year. But they still get a good deal. The average cost for schools to produce one meal has gone up 30 cents, and is now $3.So, how do schools neither make money nor
50、lose money? To start, the government pays for a small part of the difference. Schools have to make up(补足) the rest. Peggy Eller, a leader of school nutrition(营养) services in Hudson, Wisconsin, said her district is cutting costs by using fewer paper products and serving smaller portions(份额). Well, po
51、rtion control is one key to healthful eating!The push for more healthful food has grown in recent years. One in five kids aged 6 to 19 is overweight. Being overweight can cause health problems. Many states passed laws that require schools to serve nutritious meals.Since 2004, more than 90% of all U.
52、S. schools have removed(去除) the fat from lunches. Foods high in fat, salt and sugar have been replaced(替代) by low-fat milk, fresh fruits and vegetables. These new items on lunch menus have encouraged kids to change their eating habits. “It makes it easier to try new things at home,” said Savanna Mac
53、key, a Florida fifth-grader.Students need healthy food to grow strong and do well in school. Rising food prices wont stand(阻碍) in the way, says school nutritionist Jane Thornton. “Well just be more clever in how we do things.”68. Whats the best title of the passage?A.
