What does it take to graduate from university? Some papers or high scores in exams? Well, these are not enough if you are a student at Tsinghua University. According to a new rule of the university, students must prove themselves in the swimming pool. They need to pass a swimming test of at least 50 meters, and those who fail the test will be required to take a swimming course throughout their school years. By the time they graduate, they will have known how to swim; otherwise they can't graduate with their bachelor's deegrs(学士学位). The news made waves in Chinese social media(媒体). Some people praised the university for requiring a necessary skill that can save lives, and they also believed that the rule would help improve students' health. However, others questioned if it was fair to expect those who come from inland cities(内陆城市） to be able to swim. In fact, this is not a new rule. Tsinghua University first made swimming a requirement in 1919 but later gave it up because the number of students became too large and there were not enough swimming pools in the school for them to learn swimming. Anyway, it is sill good news that Chinese students' health has become more and more valued. Why not just take this chance to learn one more life-saving ability? 1.According to the passage, what does it take for a student to graduate from Tsinghua University? A.Some papers. B.High scores in exams. C.Passing a swimming test D.All of the above. 2.The underlined phrase "made waves" in Paragraph 3 most probably means ________. A.caused a heated discussion B.spread widely C.made a requirement D.proved the rule 3.What is the passage mainly about? A.Different people hold different opinions about a new rule. B.Tsinghua University has made a new rule of graduation. C.Chinese students' health should be more and more valued. D.There is a new chance to learn another life-saving ability.

Clara Daly was sitting on an Alaska Airlines flight from Boston to Los Angeles when she heard a worried voice over the loudspeaker: "Does anyone on board know American Sign Language?" Clara, 15 at the time, pressed the call button. An air hostess came by and explained the situation. "We have a passenger on the plane who's blind and deaf," she said. The passenger seemed to want something, but he was traveling alone and the air hostesses couldn't understand what he needed. Clara had been studying ASL for the past year to help blind and deaf people and she knew she'd be able to finger spell into the man's palm. So she rose from her seat, walked toward the front of the plane, and knelt by the seat of Tim Cook, then 64. Gently taking his hand, she signed, "How are you? Are you OK?" Cook asked for some water. When it arrived, Clara returned to her seat. She came by again a bit later because he wanted to know the time. On her third visit, she stopped and stayed for a while. "He didn't need anything. He was lonely and wanted to talk," Clara said. So for the next hour, she talked about her family and her plans for the future. Cook told Clara how he had become blind over time and shared stories of his days as a traveling salesman. "Even though he couldn't see her, she looked attentively at his face with such kindness," a passenger reported. "Clara was amazing," an air hostess told Alaska Airlines in an interview. "You could tell Cook was very excited to have someone he could speak to, and she was such an angel." Cook's reply: "Best trip I've ever had." 1.What was the air hostesses' problem? A.They had a very difficult passenger. B.They couldn't understand the passenger. C.They didn't know the passenger's name. D.They didn't have what the passenger wanted. 2.Why did Clara Daly believe she could help? A.Because she happened to learn some ASL. B.Because she had helped people like Cook. C.Because she thought she might know Cook. D.Because her grandfather had the same problem. 3.Why did Tim Cook keep asking for service? A.Because he was hungry and thirsty. B.Because he needed someone to talk to. C.Because he was afraid of taking planes. D.Because he was interested in Clara's story. 4.Which of the following words best describe Clara Daly? A.Brave and clever. B.Beautiful and lovely. C.Patient and caring. D.Outgoing and friendly.

Dear Grandma, How are you? I hope you are feeling well and your leg is improving. Can you walk a bit now? Is your neighbor, Mrs. Lu, bringing you enough books to read? I hope so. You'd love our school library, Grandma. There are so many books on all kinds of subjects. The other day I found a book about engineering. I couldn't really understand it but I hope to learn more about this topic sometime. This term I have some new subject classes, so I think I'll tell you about them. I study biology. It is a very interesting subject. I'm learning all about the human body, where everything is and what it does. Did you know that we have a kissing muscle? It's called “orbicularis” and it's a circle muscle that closes your mouth and moves your lips forward. I love biology. It's so interesting! Another new subject is religion(宗教). I didn't think I would like this one, but actually it is very interesting to hear how different people worship(崇拜). We are learning about lots of religions from all over the world, not only Asia. My other new subject is Spanish. It's really difficult to learn a new language but I know it will be useful for me in the future, if I want to travel around the world. Spanish is one of the official languages of the European Union and the United Nations. I've learnt that Spanish is not only spoken in Europe but in South America too. Countries like Peru, Bolivia, Chile, and Mexico also speak Spanish. You know I've always wanted to go to Mexico, so if I can speak Spanish, it would be really useful. Did you study these subjects when you were at school? I suppose subject choice changes over time, doesn't it? I'll come to visit you again in the next holiday, which I think is in eight weeks' time. I'll bring you some of my new books if you like. I hope you can write back soon and tell me all the village news. I miss you very much. Lots of love, Sara 1.From the letter we can know that Grandma's leg was________. A.improving B.lost C.getting worse D.hurt 2.Why does Sara want to learn Spanish? A.Because Spanish is interesting. B.Because Spanish is difficult. C.Because Spanish is useful. D.Because Spanish is easy. 3.The writer has learnt a lot except ________ since she began to study biology. A.the human body B.a kissing muscle C.orbicularis D.circles 4.Which of the following is Not True according to the passage? A.Sara knows little about engineering.

Today making a phone call is as common as having a glass of water. But when telephones were invented more than 130 years ago, people believed that they were dangerous. In 1876, when the first telephone was shown to the public, electricity was still new and little understood. Many people had died working with electricity in the early days. That's why most people did not easily accept that it was safe to hear a human voice through the phone. But on the morning of March 10, 1876, Alexander Bell, and his assistant Thomas Watson, had no such fears. Bell, and Watson had been struggling to make their new invention, the telephone, work. Bell sent his assistant to a room in the basement. In a room upstairs, the telephone inventor spoke seven little words into his invention. These simple words changed the world forever. "Mr. Watson, come here. I want you. " The telephone was born in March 1876, but it took a few more years for it to gain respect. Bell had to overcome the fears about electricity before people took his invention serious. He also had to convince(使信服) people there was a need for such a machine. Today, we take telephones in agreement. But on that day in March 1876, there were only two telephones in the whole world. Our world sure has changed, don't you think so? 1.How did people like the telephones at first? ____________________ 2.When was the first telephone invented in history? ____________________ 3.What was the first sentence that was said on the phone in history? ____________________ 4.Is it easy or difficult for people to accept the telephone at that time? ____________________ 5.Put the main ideas (A-E) in the order that the passage is arranged. ____ →____ →____ →____ →____ A.Why people think phone call is dangerous.
