As a young girl growing up in rural Alabama, I never understood why my mom spent so much time baking. And she always made my brother and me 36 her.

"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me." You probably heard those lines in grammar school, but do you really agree that harsh (严厉的) or negative words do not harm us? Words have power. Surely we all have had our feelings hurt by something someone said. We may not say words to hurt others, but the way we interpret (解释) them and how we say them may cause great harm. Here’s an example: An ancient king dreamed all his teeth had fallen out. He sent for a wise man to explain his dream to him: the dream means that all your relatives will die and you will be left alone! The king was very angry and threw the interpreter into prison. He then sent for another interpreter who said, "Congratulations! King! You will live many more years. In fact, you will survive all your relatives. Long Live the King!" Both interpreters gave the same interpretation, but there was a huge difference in the way they said it. Our speech must be understood by those who hear our words, but the way we say things and the intention behind them have as much power as the words themselves. Words can cause anger or appreciation. Which would you rather receive? People who say harsh and negative things may not mean to harm, but have you ever known anyone who is a naysayer? They often look at the dark sides of things. They always see the glass as half empty rather than half full. How do you feel when you are around this type of person? Remember words have power. Use them wisely. 1.The author mentions the story of the ancient king to show that _____. A. one dream sometimes has different explanations B. good words can bring good luck to people C. people should be careful when talking to a king D. different ways of saying things have different effects 2.The underlined word "naysayer" in the last paragraph refers to a person who always _____. A.has a negative attitude B. likes to be praised C.talks big D. likes to repeat what others say 3.According to the text, how can people understand each other better? A. By sharing different life experiences B. By accepting different habits. C. By properly using words D. By recognizing different values. 4.The author wrote the last paragraph to ______. A. show how the dark sides of things affect people B. advise people to see and say things positively C. show how harsh and negative words hurt people D. advise people to stay away from negative people 5.The passage mainly talks about ______. A. the power of words B. the cruelty of the king C. how to understand others D. how to build good relationships

Pupils remember more and behave better when 3D images are used in lessons, research suggests. They are quicker to learn and absorb new concepts, and display higher levels of concentration. Professor Anne Bamford, of the University of the Arts, London, studied the effectiveness of 3D content in 15 schools across seven countries, including the UK. Pupils in 3D classes could remember more than those in the 2D classes after four weeks, improving test scores by an average 17 percent compared with eight percent for 2D lessons. They gave more detailed answers to the tasks and were more likely to think in 3D, using hand gestures and mime (模仿动作) to answer the test questions successfully.
The teachers commented that the pupils in the 3D groups had deeper understanding, increased attention span, more motivation and higher engagement in the lessons Children are used to 3D with the rise of computer games that use the technology—90 percent of those in the study had seen a 3D film. Schools would need 3D-enabled projectors（投影仪）, laptops with good picture capabilities, 3D software and glasses for children to introduce animations (动作) into classrooms. But Danny Nicholson, an educationist, said the technology would be impractical to use in schools and could be too expensive. He said,“While I think the idea of 3D technology is very interesting, I worry that 3D is a bit of an expensive gimmick (小玩意儿). There are a few cases where a true 3D image might help, but most of the time, good 2D models that can be moved , would be just so effective.” In Colorado, the US, one school district is already in the process of having 1,000 3D projectors fixed in classrooms. And the University of Caledonia, which carries out scientific research into the Lake Tabon Basin, has used 3D presentations with Grade Six pupils. Those who watched the 3D presentations were more engaged and reported a general increase in their interest in science compared with students who watched the 2D version. 1.Teachers think pupils in 3D classes . A. are naughtier than those in 2D classes B. have less motivation C. find it hard to concentrate D. have deeper understanding 2.Danny Nicholson tends to think that . A. many pupils prefer 2D models B. 3D is a bit expensive for some schools C. true 3D images would not help in classes D. 3D technology has a bright future in classes 3.What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. 3D classes will soon be given in one school district in Colorado. B. Teachers will use the 3D technology through specific training. C. Many pupils are now more interested in science than before. D. 3D technology will replace 2D models in the future. 4.What is the text mainly about? A. 2D models are always more effective than 3D images. B. The differences between 3D and 2D images. C. How schools can make full use of 3D technology. D. Pupils behave better when 3D images are used in classes. 5.Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A history book. B. A news story C. A science magazine. D. A school report.

Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
Babies, especially newborns, have the smoothest and most sensitive skin, and react to almost everything that touches them. This is why we have to be sure that whatever they come into contact with doesn’t have any bad effect on their skin. Organic (有机的) newborn clothes are gaining popularity these days for being made from organic, non-synthetic (合成的) materials produced without pesticides (农药) or fertilizers（化肥）. Organic clothes are produced from organically-grown cotton on fields. We want only what is best for our babies, and organic clothes for newborns can help protect them from being exposed to the poisonous substances sometimes present in the clothes we normally wear. We don’t want our babies to get rashes (皮疹) just because we weren’t wise enough when buying their clothes! What else do they offer? They wash more easily than ordinary clothes, giving better value for money in the long run. Ordinary clothes cost less, but the material they are made from is subject to frequent wear and tear even before it is made into clothes. In the long run, then, organic clothes are not only better for your child, but also more cost-effective, and remain fresh and in good repair after many years of use. You may think that organic clothes must be dull and lifeless; nothing could be further from the truth. Modern techniques enable these clothes to be designed in attractive and brilliant colors with adorable patterns. Your clothes are not only safe, but beautiful as well! In short, organic clothes are definitely an option to keep in mind when you’re shopping for that soon-to-arrive member of your family.

Gao Xiaosong was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. His grandfather was headmaster of the famous Tsinghua University. His wife’s father graduated from the Imperial College London and founded Shenzhen University. He basically grew up on Tsinghua's campus, and studied in the top schools in China, before he, unsurprisingly, entered Tsinghua's electronic engineering department, one of the school's best majors. He wrote On the Same Page as You are at age 24. Almost overnight, every young person knew the song by heart. That tune and his later works made him a household name in the country. He later became a judge on the hot variety show (综艺节目) China's Got Talent. Everything has gone right for him aside from one major bump in the road—he was arrested for drunken driving in 2011, after he left the first press conference for his film, My Kingdom. "For me, the six months was not only a result of the trial but also an atonement,（赎罪）" he says. "Six months is like a leaf falling from the tree of life—no big deal. I was a spoiled person in many ways before 40. So, maybe it was an opportunity to pay for my wildness and arrogance(傲慢) in my youth." The hardest thing for him in prison wasn't sleeping between a thief and a bad man but missing his daughter's development from ages 3.5–4. Gao has become even busier after getting out of prison for drunken driving. A tour concert of his songs is going around the country, while Morning Talk airs weekly. He is searching for new vocal talent for a music company, and his next film is in progress. But he knows clearly what he wants from life—he plans to focus on music until he turns 60, after which he'll focus on writing and film directing. "You can never write pop music at 60," he says. "I don't complain about that. But you can always write a good book or direct a good film, no matter how old you are." 1.What caused him to become well-known to every family in China? (No more than 7 words) (3 marks) ___________________________________________________ 2.What did he find it the most difficult to do when he was in prison? (No more than 11 words) (2 marks) ___________________________________________________ 3.When is he going to devote himself to writing and directing films ？ (No more than 7 words) (2 marks) ___________________________________________________ 4.What words can be used to describe Mr. Gao’s character before he was forty? (No more than 6 words) (3 marks)
