15、dont think you meant to do that,” I said to myself, 36 at Jack, my friend who was running across the 37 field. 38 I wish I could join them! But it was impossible because of the pain in my left foot, 39 by Jack.I first met Jack in a football match in elementary school. When my team looked as if we 40
16、 losing, Jack, 41was watching, volunteered(主动) to join us. He was so confident and skilled that we won. From then on, Jack and I often 42 together and become best friends.But something happened before an important football match between Class 6 and my class. Since my class had so many good players t
17、hat we 43 decide on the best ones. Jack and I were in 44 teams. The match was close in the first half. I saw my chance and was ready to score a goal. Suddenly, Jack 45 me, and slid down to stop the ball, but collided with my left foot. I knew I had lost the 46 to score and was carried off the field.
18、 But what really hurt me was that Jack didnt say sorry. 47 when some of my teammates said he did it on purpose to stop me 48 , I felt sad. Now I stand here, with tears in my eyes. I dont want to believe 49 words but I dont know how to persuade 50 they are wrong. Everything changes when Jack scores a
19、nd wins! How excited I am!While I am still 51 in excitement, someone pats my shoulder. It is Jack, with a smile on his face. “Im sorry that you can not join in because of my 52 . You see, Jason, we 53 them! No matter whether you joined in or not, youve made a contribution. Come on, lets celebrate!”

24、lth, doctors say.Wang Xiaoyu, a Senior 2 girl from Xichang, Sichuan Province, fainted (晕倒) in class when she heard her classmates quarrel at the top of their voices. Quarrels between her parents also put the girl into a coma. It is because she is suffering from depression (抑郁症), caused by bad relati
25、ons at home, doctors explained.“We dont get sick or stay well by ourselves,” says Dr Robert Ferrer from the US. Ferrer shows that family forces may explain up to a quarter of health problems, in his recent research.The genes you get from your family may cause illness. If one of your parents has a he
26、art attack, your risk of being affected may double. But effects on health are not only written in our DNA.Unrelated people who live under the same roof also get similar problems. Diet, lifestyle and environment affect our health, too.Ferrers research also found that if teenagers feel they are ignore
27、d or unimportant at home they are more likely to get sick.We may never fully understand all the effects that families have on our health. But just as individual (个别的) problems can have effects on others, a small improvement can have big benefits, Ferrer said.56. Which of the following can best expla
28、in why Wang Xiaoyu fainted in class?A. Because her classmates often quarreled in class.B. Because her parents used to quarrel.C. Because of her depression caused by bad family relations.D. Because her classmates shouted loudly at her.57. According to Dr Ferrer, which of the following statements is T
29、RUE?A. We get sick or stay well by ourselves.B. Only the genes we get from our family have a big effect on our health.C. Our health has nothing to do with diet, lifestyle and environment.D. Teenagers who are ignored at home get sick more easily than those who are not.58. The underlined word “coma” i
30、n Paragraph2 probably means _.A. embarrassment B. faint C. tirednessD. sadness59. The best title for this passage is _.A. Family relations. B. The reasons why we get sick.C. Happy family makes you healthy. D. A research about teenagers health.BSometimes children do not do what their parents tell the
31、m to do. When this happens, a parent tries to help the child to do the right thing. When this does not work, the parent usually punishes the child.There are many things that a parent can do. One thing that people have done is to spank (打屁股) the child. When a parent spanks a child, they will use thei
32、r hand or a hard object to strike them on their bottom. This is meant to show the child that they have done something wrong.One parent remembers being spanked when he was a child. His parents used a wooden spoon. When he spanked his own children with his hand, he saw that he put a red mark on his ch
33、ilds leg. He never did that again.One problem with spanking is that it teaches the child to hit someone when they do not like what the other person is doing. Another problem with spanking is that the parent is usually angry and can hit the child too hard. Sometimes parents will use spanking for ever
34、ything and not try other ways to get the child to do the right thing.Many parents are not sure of what to do instead of spanking. Some people think that their religion(宗教)tells them that spanking is okay. Some think that the law lets them do it. The courts say that parents have the right to teach th
35、eir children how to behave.Other things should be tried before a parent decides to spank a child. Telling the child exactly what is wanted from them can be one thing. Giving a child more than one choice is another thing that can be tried. Getting down to the childs level and taking a more child-frie
36、ndly approach can help as well.60. According to the passage, when children do something wrong, one thing that parents usually do to punish them is to _. A. strike them on the bottom B. try to help them do the right thingC. teach them what to do D. take them to court61. Which of the following is NOT
37、the problem caused by spanking?A. It teaches the child to hit others when they offend him or her.B. The parent may get angry and hit the child too hard.C. Sometimes parents may use spanking for everything.D. It makes parents try other ways to make the child do right.62. Which of the following can be
38、st describe the writers attitude towards spanking?A. favorable (赞同的) B. indifferent (不关心) C. interested D. unfavorable63. From this passage, we can conclude that _. A. Good children always do the right thing.B. Parents should try their best to avoid spanking their children.C. Parents have no choice
39、but to spank their children when they do something wrong.D. Children can have more than one choice to avoid being spanked.CSome kids start to drink alcohol (酒精) at a young age. They think it is part of becoming an adult. They also think drinking is not that bad because so many people do it. They fee
40、l it is not as bad as taking drugs. It is easy for kids to get liquor by using fake identification (伪造证件). Parents may start to notice a change in their childs behavior if the child starts drinking. Kids who drink sometimes stop doing things they normally liked to do. They may keep telephone calls a
41、nd meetings a secret and not want anybody to touch their things. They act moody (喜怒无常) and do not have the same eating and sleeping habits. Parents need to stay involved in their kids lives. They should talk to their children about their problems to be aware of any changes. Parents can be the best p
42、rotection. Children who get a lot of love can feel good about themselves. It helps them resist doing bad things even when other kids are doing them. Parents can also help set a good example by not drinking and driving. They can have firm rules in the home that everyone follows. Give the children goo
43、d ideas on how to say “no” to drinking, even when they are at a party. Try not to overreact or panic if the child tries alcohol. How you handle it can affect their attitude. It may be helpful to talk to other parents about setting up curfews (宵禁令) and rules about parties or other events.64. Which of
44、 the following is NOT the reason why some kids have an early start of drinking?A. They want to show their maturity (成熟) by drinking alcohol.B. Drinking alcohol is much cooler than taking drugs.C.

47、 worries.D Good readers know that reading isnt just about knowing words its a way of thinking. Smart readers think before, during and after reading. Here are some tips that may be of some help. Think before you read. Before you read the text, ask yourself the questions that why you are reading it an
48、d what you want to get from it. Answering the questions will help you choose what words you need to know and what words you can skip or scan. Think while you are reading. Can you get the meaning of the text without looking up new words in a dictionary? Are there any clues in the text? A text will of
49、ten give examples that may help you understand what some of the words mean. Lets take the following sentence for example. Many large Russian cities, such as Chelyabinsk and Irkutsk, have taken steps to protect their culture. The words “Chelyabinsk” and “Irkutsk” may be new to us, but the sentence te
50、lls us that they are examples of _. Think after you read. Do you understand the text? What is the main idea of the text? Can you guess the meaning of the new words? Which words do you need to look up? Is the text too easy or too hard for you? If you practice reading and thinking in this way, you wil
51、l become a smarter reader and you will learn more, faster and better.68.

53、sD. the clues in a passage should be made use ofIV.任务型阅读Long school day = More learning? Not necessarilyRecently we talked about how some American schools have made changes in the traditional school year. Their goal is to improve student learning.Some have extended the school year, or reorganized it
54、 to avoid a long summer break. Another choice is to extend the school day. A new report from the Center for Evaluation and Education Policy at Indiana University examines research into how effective this is.The traditional school day has not changed much in more than a century. Activities or special
55、 programs might mean a longer day. But younger children usually go to school from about nine oclock in the morning until about three in the afternoon. Older ones are traditionally in school from about seven a.m. until around two p.m.Some high schools have changed to later start times because of find
56、ings that teenagers learn better that way. But the new report says results have been mixed. Teachers say students are more awake. But students say the changes interfere with after-school activities or jobs.By 2001, almost one-third of all secondary schools had some form of block scheduling(区段时间表). T
57、he idea is to provide longer periods in the school day to teach basic subjects.More class time should mean better results. This is the thinking, at least. Yet a 2001study found that secondary schools with traditional schedules had higher test scores by comparison. Schools with block scheduling did h
58、ave higher scores in science, though.In any case, the study agreed with earlier findings that students feel better about their schools in systems with nontraditional scheduling.So how useful is a longer school day? Not surprisingly, the policy experts at Indiana say it is what educators do with the
59、extra time that has the largest effect on student learning. They note a criticism that education leaders often make scheduling changes without changing the learning environment of a school.The experts say teachers must be trained to use the added time effectively. Professional development is needed.
60、 The report notes that simply adding time to a program that is not very good or very interesting will not increase student learning.Community(社会) support is also valuable for any changes. And there is another consideration. Schools may need a lot of extra money to pay for an extended day.ThemeNew ch
