11、d me, some of the people did not think it was so funny that I had a 24 . Some people were giving me rude looks, because they thought I was a teenager mom. Others just smiled at me sympathetically and felt sorry for me because I was only a child with a child.I learned a lot through my 25 with the “Th
12、ink-It-Over” baby. The doll surely strengthened my thinking that I was not ready to be a 26 , and it opened my eyes to the judgments people 27 about others. People do not 28 that some things are not the way they seem. I was only carrying it around for a class project. The people in the restaurant we

16、ime job increasing their social experience. Its wise that students sometimes step 31 of the classroom-after all, they can learn a lot from the world we see outside the school windows. Lets take a look at what some teenagers got up to 32 (recent) when they took a break from the textbooks.Liang Shuqin
17、g, 33 17-year-old girl in Foshan No.1 High School in Guangdong province said. “Before we graduate, we have to complete five days of community work. I 34 (choose) to sell watches this year, in a store 35 I had once bought one myself. 36 I began, a salesgirl showed me the watches. She explained all th
18、eir functions and pointed out the different designs. Other than at mealtimes, I stood by the counter the whole day, 37 (welcome) each new potential customer with a smile. When there were 38 people, I cleaned the glass of the display case as well as the watches 39 (make) sure everything had a dazzlin
19、g shine. When I saw the salesgirl having to deal with a difficult customer, I realized 40 a challenging job it was. To be good in sales, you need to be calm, friendly, as well as quick-witted. 第三部分: 阅读理解(20小题, 满分40分)AAs you can see, water works hard in your body every day. Thats why its important to
20、 give your body the water it needs to carry out all its different jobs. On a regular day, your body loses 2-3 quarts of water-enough to fill a 2 liter soda bottle. You probably guess that water is lost when you sweat-especially on a hot day.But your body also loses water in an almost invisible way-e
21、vaporation. Water escapes from your body through your skin and in your breath. How? Your breath contains droplets of water that are usually too tiny to see. They become visible for a quick second in the cold when you can “see your breath.” But water evaporates this way all year round. Your skin also
22、 contains water, which escapes in tiny droplets that go into the air, the water in your skin evaporates into the air, but fortunately, your body can replace the water it loses so your skin doesnt dry out.Eating and drinking is one way to replace the water your body loses. Most foods have a lot of wa
23、ter in them, especially fruits and vegetables. Grapes, watermelon, oranges, and cantaloupe are delicious and full of water.But you cant rely on food alone to get that water back, and thats why its also a good idea to drink water every day. You might have heard someone say that people need to drink 6
24、 to 8 cups (1.4 to 1.9 liters) of water each day. Depending on how much water youre getting from foods and other liquids, 6 to 8 cups (1.4 to 1.9 liters) might not be necessary. If youre eating a lot of fruits and vegetables, or you like to eat soup every day, youll be getting some of the water your
25、 body needs. 41. You should drink enough water every day because _ .A. your body needs too much water B. water does all kinds of jobs in your body C. your body loses a lot of water every day D. the more water you drink the better you feel42.

26、A. breathingB. evaporatingC. sweatingD. eating43. Your body has to give enough water to your skin in order to _. A. keep the water in your skin clean B. stop your skin from dying out C. stop the water from losing D. keep your skin wet all the time44. What does the underlined phrase “rely on” in the
27、fourth paragraph means? A. eat upB. receiveC. depend uponD. digest 45. You have to drink about 6 or 8 cups of water _. A. if you only eat food for your meals every day B. if you eat many fruits and vegetables every day C. if you eat enough soup every day D. if you drink all kinds of healthy liquids
28、B William Speak, my grandfather, was born to be clever. His mathematics was so far ahead of his classmates that he would often be sent home for finishing his work early. And when he turned 13 in 1916, the teachers at his village school suggested he try for Rivington Grammar School. But his father sa
29、id, “ We need him to bring in a wage(工资).” So my grandfather was sent to a factory, then down the mines and finally to a paper factory , where he stayed for almost four decades(十年) until he retired(退休). What happened to the man with real intellectual(知识的) ability but without the chance to exercise t
30、hat muscle? Rather than lose heart , he turned his disappointment into a passion(热爱) for education, and a determination to make sure his daughter and granddaughter had the opportunities he missed out . I grew up hearing about the way he helped my mother with her homework, which hed never come across
31、 before. I know he kept himself busy by learning . He had argued(争论) with his workmates when my mother applied for(申请) a teacher training college. “ Theres no point in educating a girl,” they said. He must have been angry when hearing that. What do I remember of my grandfather? One day he brought me
32、 a football. “Have you ever wondered,” he said, “ why we always say black and white instead of white and black?” Then he left me to think. He made me think about language. He lived to see me win a place in a famous college, but died at the beginning of the autumn term. Every time I won a prize, Mum

37、father- a hard-working man. C. My grandfather- a man with a colorful life. D. My grandfather- a man with a passion for education.CLanguage is a way to communicate with each other. We started to learn language when we were born. However, people are used to speaking their native language, so immigrant
38、s(移民) are having many problems between the first generation and the second generation because they dont have the same native language. Also, the second generation is losing their identity. Especially in America, there are many immigrants that came from different countries to succeed in the States. B
39、ecause they suffer in lots of areas such as getting a job and trying to speak English, they want their children to speak English, not only at school, but also at home in order to be more successful. Because of this situation, their children are losing their identity, and even more, they are ignoring
40、 their parents whose English is not very good.I think most immigrants are trying to preserve their native language in their new country, but this doesnt help very much in getting a good job. My aunt taught Korean to her children not to help them succeed in the US; she did so, hopefully, to help them
41、 establish a Korean identity. Though the second generation is born in the new country, they often get confused about their identity because they look different from others, and also, if they visit their parents country, they will probably feel different from other people there too. My cousins told m
42、e that when they visited Korea a few years ago, they felt different from other Koreans. They could even feel in just strolling around the street because they wore different clothes and walked differently.We must realize that language is important and valuable for many reasons. Immigrants should make
43、 an effort not to be ignored by their children and to make their children understand their background by teaching them the parents language. This is very important, not only for the harmony of the family, but also in helping the second generation establish their identity.51. According to the text, w
44、hat is the problem of the first generation immigrants?A. They have lost their identity.B. Their children are losing their identity.C. Their children speak different languages.D. They cannot speak their native language.52. It can be inferred from the text that _.A. most of the immigrants cant underst
45、and EnglishB. most of the immigrants are not successful in careersC. to some degree, the parents are to blame for their kids loss of identityD. the second generation immigrants cant understand their parents language53. My aunt taught her children Korean _.A. so that they knew they were of Korean ori
46、ginB. so that they would be more successful in the USC. because she didnt want them to speak EnglishD. because she wanted them to respect her54. The writers cousins felt different in their parents country because they _.A. had never been there beforeB. behaved quite differentlyC. couldnt understand
47、the languageD. had different facial appearance55. According to the text, the native language is important and valuable to immigrants in that _.A. it gives them self-confidence and better chanceB. it makes the second generation love their motherlandC. it helps the second generation to understand thei
48、r parentsD. it strengthens the family ties and reminds them of their identityD I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunts house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bu
49、s were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio programs for school children to which I listened every morning. I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to
50、my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see- the strange and magical(神奇的) places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then. The four years that followed taught me the importan
51、ce of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really losthaving to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex(复杂的) for me. Some tim
52、e passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times” My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration offic
53、ers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives. From my experiences I have learned one important rule: almost all common troubles will go away at last! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give u
54、p, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be so easy.56. How did the author get to know America?A. From books and pictures. B.
