My dad says must try hard because he wants me go to university. He thinks I’m lazy, but it’s not true. I work really hard, often study late into the night! I’ve tried to talk to my mother, but she always said I have to work as hard like my brother does. My brother doesn’t study very hard, and he always gets excellent grades. It’s not fair! The only thing I like it is art. My teacher says I’m the best student she’s had for year. When I told my dad, all he said was, “You mustn’t waste your time in art. You must focus your mind on your lessons!” I’m feeling quite puzzling as to what to do now. Would you please help me out? Thanks lot! Yours sincerely, Lisa

Cursive (手写体)is about to become extinct. Do we raise the red flag? To teach or not to teach cursive is the question that several state education departments are struggling with. Before you read this write-up $ do a simple exercise. Pick a pen and paper and start writing in cursive. Yes，that fancy handwriting that you learned in grade school. You may not have forgotten the good times you had while writing loopy Ps and Gs as well as curly Ms and Ns. However，the chances are that you won't be able to write it as excellently as you used to. Some people are good at making the perfect loops and curls，while some are bad. I am still terrible at it. Cursive is hardly used by kids anymore as even adults don 't write in this style，unless they are using it for their signature. Learning this handwriting was a usual practice in school for several decades. However，in 2011, the Indiana Department of Education made it optional (可选择的)for schools to teach cursive writing to the students. In fact, there were 46 more states who have done the same. There are some who believe that it is high time for cursive to retire from school curriculum. After all，if we don ’ t leave the past behind，we cannot make way for new things. If you walk into any classroom，you would find children using keyboards to communicate in written form. On the other hand，fans of this cursive insist on its usefulness. They remind us that if we stop teaching and learning cursive in schools，very soon most of our historical documents will become hard to us. Where do we stand on this subject? Is it the right time to erase an almost forgotten handwriting and live in the keyboarding world? Or can we do both without compromising (妥协)on our school curriculum? Let me know your thoughts on this matter by leaving a comment in the section below. 1.People use cursive when they A.give their signature B.are in Indiana C.grow up as adults D.are at school 2.In Indiana school, children A.must learn cursive B.are interested in cursive C.can choose to learn cursive D.learn cursive everyday 3.It can be inferred that the author A.prefers to learn cursive B.is a cursive teacher C.welcomes people to show their opinions D.is a very famous expert in education 4.What would be the best title for the passage? A.Is Cursive Writing Necessary? B.Is Keyboarding World Good? C.A Keyboarding World D.Advantages of Cursive

While I will explain a bit about the science of stress and relaxation a little later simple way to think about it is that our body 's stress response works like a car alarm. Keep us safe by warning us of the presence of danger in our immediate environment. But instead of warning us with a loud and annoying sound，our body alarm system lets us know that something is wrong by creating changes in our neurochemistry (神经化学）.If you've ever experienced pain in your stomach，periods of extreme anger, inability to focus or even insomnia (失眠），chances are your body was paying the price in those moments for the brain chemistry of stress. So if it's so uncomfortable，why not just get rid of stress altogether? This is not only impractical，it would be dangerous. Let's go back to the metaphor (比喻说法）of the car alarm. If the alarm is turned off altogether，the car is exposed to continual danger without there being any way of your knowing about it until it is too late. It would be like walking through the jungle without any fear signal in the presence of a poisonous snake or other dangerous animals — while it might feel “nice” to be so relaxed，your body actually needs the stress response not only to remind you of danger but also to offer extra adrenaline (肾上腺素) for your heart and extra blood and oxygen for your arms and legs. However，if the car alarm goes off at any time，someone just looks at the car with a bit of an attitude，and it becomes equally useless. Not only do we stop paying attention to it，but it begins to drive us and everyone around us becomes a little bit crazy. In the case of our bodies，walking around in a constant state of alarm also has some pretty alarming health consequences，which we will explore in greater depth in the next chapter. 1.Our body's stress response is compared to a car alarm in that . A.they work all the time B.they both give a signal C.they work in the same way D.they both produce a sound 2.When our body alarm system works， . A.we feel calm B.we feel excited C.some changes happen in our brain D.some changes happen in our heart 3.What would happen if stress were got rid of completely? A.We'11 be free of worries. B.We'11 achieve a sense of safety. C.We'11 reach a perfect state of mind. D.We'11 fail to realize the possible danger. 4.What's the purpose of giving the example of walking through the Jungle in Paragraph 4? A.To show the harm of stress. B.To show the effect of stress. C.To explain the function of stress response. D.To explain the necessity of stress response.
So many of us hold on to little complaints that may have come from an argument ，a misunderstanding，the way we were raised，or some other painful events. Stubbornly，we wait for someone else to reach out to us — believing this is the only way we can forgive orrekindlea friendship or family relationship. A friend of mine，recently told me that she hadn't spoken to her son in almost three years. She said that she and her son had had a disagreement about his wife and that she wouldn't speak to him again unless he called first. When I suggested that she be the one to reach out，she said，“ I can't do that. He’s the one who should apologize. ” After a little gentle encouragement，however，she did decide to be the first one to reach out. To her amazement，her son was grateful for her willingness to call and offered an apology of his own. As is usually the case，when someone takes the chance and reaches out，everyone wins. Whenever we hold on to our anger, we turn“ small stuff”问题）”into really“ big stuff” in our minds. We start to believe that our positions are more important than our happiness. They are not. If you want to be a more peaceful person you must understand that being right is almost never more important than allowing yourself to be happy. The way to be happy is to let go，and reach out. Let other people be right. This doesn't mean that you're wrong. Everything will be fine. You'll experience the peace of letting go，as well as the joy of letting others be right. You'11 also notice that，as you reach out and let others be “right”，they will become less defensive and more loving toward you. They might even reach back. But，if for some reason they don't， that's okay too. You '11 have the inner satisfaction of knowing that you have done your part to create a more loving world，and certainly you'11 be more peaceful yourself. 1.The underlined word “ rekindle” in Paragraph 1 probably means “ ”. A.recover B.develop C.accept D.replace 2.In the author's opinion, we hold on to our anger often because we think . A.we can turn small issues into big ones B.our positions are higher than others C.our own opinions matter most D.others will be less defensive 3.The best thing to do after a quarrel is to . A.let go of our own rights B.realize that you are wrong. C.expect others to give in D.apologize to others first. 4.What is the main idea of the passage? A.People should keep peaceful when facing small stuff. B.Reaching out and apologizing wins one peace and happiness. C.We should tell apart small and big stuff in our daily life. D.It's necessary to enjoy our friendship and family relationship.

Since smart phones were invented, more and more people are obsessed (痴迷) by them. The obsession with phones has spread to running. They’re perfectly used during a running outside. Smart phones can provide music for you and track your route. But experts warn that it’s not a good idea to hold your phone in your hand while you go out for a run because it could cause hip (臀部) and shoulder injuries. The habit could make the body lose balance. The same goes for water bottles, or anything else you might carry in one hand while on a run. Professional UK Athletics running coach, Alexa, asks runners to carry phones in a waist belt instead. “When you hold something in our hands, there are slightly indirect influences on your pace. It influences the balance of muscle (肌肉), affects the weight of some body parts, and makes you run less fast,” she tells Cosmopolitan UK. “This could be happening every time you train, week after week, month after month.” And as mobile phones get bigger and heavier, the more injuries are likely to occur. People like to always hold their phones in the same hand. It’s a force of habit. With one arm heavier, your body will try to compensate for the imbalance by working certain muscles harder than others. The other risk of running phone-in-hand, of course, is damaging the screen of your phones if you fall. It’s very expensive to change a screen. Some of the latest phones can cost close to £ 300. 1.Why do experts think it unsuitable to run with a smart phone? A.It affects people’s hearing. B.It makes people lose eyesight. C.It does harm to parts of people’s bodies. D.It has a bad effect on people’s mental health. 2.What does Alexa suggest people do? A.Carry smart phones in a bag. B.Avoid touching smart phones with your hands. C.Watch smart phones when running. D.Carry smart phones in a waist belt. 3.What does the underlined phrase “compensate for” in paragraph 4 mean? A.Meet up with. B.Make up for. C.Face up to. D.Come up with. 4.What can we learn from the last paragraph? A.Running phone-in-hand is good for people. B.It’s time to warn people not to use cell phones. C.Changing a phone screen may cost much. D.There are mobile phones falling into pieces every day.
We’ve learned bees can understand zero and do basic math. Now a new study shows their tiny insect brains may be able to connect symbols to numbers. Adrian Dyer, a professor in the RMIT University, said the research showed brains far smaller than humans’ could know numbers. “Humans learn numbers as children, but being able to recognize what numbers really represent needs a certain level of cognitive (认知的) ability,” Dyer says, “Studies have shown primates (灵长类动物) and birds have this ability, but this is the first time we’ve seen this in insects.” It’s important for humans to do the research. There are 86 billion neurons (神经元) in humans’ brains. Bees only have less than a million. If bees have the ability to learn something difficult to understand like human-made symbolic language, this will open up exciting new paths for future communication between humans and animals. Studies have shown that a number of animals have been able to learn symbols of numbers, including parrots and monkeys. Monkeys were taught Arabic numbers and could order them correctly. An African grey parrot called Alex was able to learn numbers and could do simple calculation. Understanding how tiny brains of bees manage information opens paths to technology, which is good for the future design of computing (计算) systems. 1.What does Adrian Dyer say about the research? A.The finding of the research is first seen in insects. B.Humans’ brains are the biggest on the earth. C.Birds can be as clever as primates. D.Bees are cleverer than birds. 2.What do we know about the research? A.Humans may find a new path to communicate with animals. B.Bees have more neurons than monkeys. C.Insects have the ability to communicate with humans. D.Bees can solve basic math problems. 3.Who is Alex according to the text? A.A child. B.A monkey. C.An expert. D.A parrot. 4.What’s the main idea of the text? A.Bees can communicate with other animals. B.Bees can attach symbols to numbers. C.Some animals can do math problems. D.Bees can make communication with humans.

I was taken to Spokane, Washington. It took me a long time to be able to walk, because I had to accept a number of operations. When I was in the business school, one of my friends was training for a marathon. One day, she introduced me to an organization called Achilles International, which was a club for athletes with disabilities. It took me four months to get the courage to make the phone call. Dick Traum, the founder of Achilles, answered the phone. He asked me to show up on Tuesday and would lend me his bike. That was the first time that I had been able to feel the wind in my long hair. I rode really slowly, but it was the coolest feeling to ride a bicycle for the first time. Later, I decided to take part in the Ironman World Championship. I was in a lot of pain, because I had to practice swimming, biking and running for over nine months. On the day of the marathon, it took me 14 hours and 39 minutes to finish the Triathlon. After I crossed that finish line, I cried. I made it. It was my determination that made my dream come true. 1.Who took the author to America? A.Her birth father. B.An Indian family.

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。 Robert and Henry were two friends in the same class. They always played together and went home together. One day Robert and Henry were going home from school, when, on turning a corner, Robert cried out, “A fight! Let’s go and see!” “No,” said Henry. “Let us go quietly home and not meddle with(插手) this quarrel. We have nothing to do with it and may get into mischief(trouble). Also our parents are expecting to have dinner with us together at home and I don’t want them to worry about me. ” “You are a coward, and afraid to go,” said Robert, and off he ran. Henry went straight home, and in the afternoon went to school as usual. But Robert had told all the boys that Henry was a coward, and they laughed at him a great deal. From then on, they looked down upon Henry and didn’t want to play with him together. Henry was sad but he wasn’t angry with Robert for his rude behavior, because he learned that true courage is shown most in bearing misunderstanding when it was not deserved, and that he ought to be afraid of nothing but doing wrong. Thus, he just ignored the other boys’ laughter and continued to go to school and study as well. However, Robert didn’t invite Henry to go home with him anymore. Instead, he had some other boys who also thought Henry was a coward. Every day after school, they didn’t go home directly but went to the river or somewhere to play games and had a lot of fun. A few days later, Robert was bathing with his new friends in a river, and got out of his depth. He struggled, and screamed for help, but all in vain. The boys who had called Henry a coward got out of the water as fast as they could, but they did not even try to help him. 注意: 1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语； 3.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好； 4.续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。 Paragraph 1: Robert was fast sinking. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
