“Wolf！”
Lydia Angiyou's five-year-old nephew Paulussie whispered with alarm as he touched her
arm. At first, she didn't believe him.
Angiyou, Paulussie, her another newphew Lueassie, also five, and her youngest son Jessie,
seven, were walking to her mother's house one night last February. Animals were often sighted
near lvujvik--a village of 274 Inuit on the shore of Hudson Bay--but rarely on its streets.
The 41-year-old teacher and mother of five turned around. Looking behind her into the
darkness, at first she thought that Jessie was the wolf. But a meter behind the boy was 350kg
polar bern -no wolf in sight--standing on the icy road. Jessie turned and saw it, too, then ran,
screaming, to his mother.
Angiyou felt a rush of blood to her brain. "Get as far away as you can!" she shouted to the
boys as she ran towards the bear. She stopped just in front of it, then faced it quiedy. It made a
move to go around her to get to the boys, who must have seemed like the easier meal.
But Angiyou moved with the bear to maintain her position blocking the children. Finally she
got the animal's attention. In response, it rose on its hind legs to its full 2.5m height. The bear
charged, and knocked her into a seated position. The skin under her nose tore. Falling onto her
back, she screamed for help and kicked at the animal in a bicycling motion. She soon passed out.
Sirqualuk Ainalik, a fellow teacher, had been at his brother's house nearby when Jessie
dashed inside for help. Grabing a rifle, the 33-year-old ran to the road, firing a warning shot into
the air. He then aimed his gun at the huge bear.
With two more shots, Ainalik killed the polar bear.
56. Lydia Angiyou and             children went through the adventure.
A. two            B. three           C. four            D. five
57. What's the right order of the following according to the passage?
a. Angiyou passed out.
b. The bear struck Angiyou on the nose.
c. Angiyou went to her mother's home.
d. A fellow teacher killed the bear.

A. e c b d a        B. c e d a b          C. c e b a d          D. c e a b d
58. The following are all right except
A. Lydia Angiyou was in her forties
B. A wolf was finally killed
C. Animals often appeared near the village
D. Angiyou called for help while fighting
59. The story shows that Lydia Angiyou is

Imagine a classroom missing the one thing that’s long been considered a necessary part to reading and writing ------ paper. No notebooks, no textbooks, no test paper. Nor are there any pencils or pens, which always seem to run out of ink at the critical moment.
A “paperless classroom” is what more and more schools are trying to achieve.
Students don’t do any handwriting in this class. Instead, they use palm size, or specially-designed computers. The teacher downloads texts from Internet libraries and sends them to every student’s personal computer.
Having computers also means that students can use the Web. They can look up information on any subject they’re studying from math to social science.
High school teacher Judy Harrel in Florida, US, described how her class used the Web to learn about the war in Afghanistan (阿富汗) before.
“We could touch every side of the country through different sites from the forest to refugee camps (难民营)”, she said. “Using a book that’s three or four years old is impossible.”
And exams can go online too. At a high school in Tennessee, US, students take tests on their own computers. The teacher records the grades on the network for everyone to see and then copies them to his own electronic grade book.
A paperless classroom is a big step towards reducing the waste of paper. High school teacher Stephanie Sorrell in Kentucky, US, said she used to give about 900 pieces of paper each week to each student.
“Think about the money and trees we could save with the computer,” she said.
But, with all this technology, there’s always the risk that the machines will break down. So, in case of a power failure or technical problems, paper textbooks are still widely available for these hi-tech students.
46. What does “run out of ink at the critical moment” in the first paragraph mean?
A. Pens may not write well at the critical moment.
B. Pens get lost easily, so you may not find them at the critical moment.
C. Pens may have little or no ink at the critical moment.
D. Pens use ink, while pencils don’t.
47. The high school teacher, Judy Harrell, used the example of her class to show that ______.
A. the Web could take them everywhere
B. the Web taught them a lot
C. the Web is a good tool for information
D. the Web, better than the textbooks, can give the latest and comprehensive (全面的) information
48. The paperless classrooms will benefit ______ most.
A. students B. teachers C. trees D. computers

There are two basic ways to see growth: one as a product, the other as a process. People have generally viewed personal growth as an external (外在的) result or a product that can easily be identified and measured．The worker who gets a rise, the student whose grades improve, the foreigner who learns a new language—all these examples of people who have measurable results to show for their efforts．
By contrast (对照) , the process of personal growth is much more difficult to determine, since it is a journey and not the specific signposts or landmarks along the way．The process is not the road itself, but the attitudes, feelings people have , and their caution or courage, as they meet with new experiences and unexpected difficulties．In this process, the journey never really ends；there are always new ways to experience the world, new ideas to try, new challenges to accept．
In order to grow, to travel new roads, people need to have a willingness to take risks, to face the unknown, and to accept the possibility that they may “fail” at first．How we see ourselves as we try a new way of being is necessary for our ability to grow．Do we see ourselves as quick and curious? If so, we tend to take more chances and be more open to unfamiliar experiences．Do we think we’re shy and indecisive? Then our sense of fear can cause us to hesitate, to move slowly, and we think we are slow to adapt (适应) change or that we’re not smart enough to deal with a new challenge．Then we are likely to take a more passive role or not try at all．
These feelings of insecurity (不安全) and self-doubt are both unavoidable and necessary if we are to change and grow．If we protect ourselves too much, then we stop growing．We become trapped inside a shell of our own making．
72．In the author’s eye, one who views personal growth as a process would ______．
A．succeed in climbing up the social ladder
B．grow up from his own achievements
C．face difficulties and take up challenges
D．aim high and reach his goal each time
73．Which of the following can be viewed as the process of personal growth?
A．Our manager was always willing to accept new challenges．
B．Jane won the first prize in the speech competition．
C．Jerry picked up French during his stay in Paris．
D．Father’s salary rose from 5, 000 to 7,000．
74．For personal growth, the author is in favor of all the following EXCEPT _______．
A．being curious about more changes
B．being quick in self-adaptation
C．having an open mind to new experiences
D．staying away from failures and challenges
75．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A．It is not so easy to measure personal growth．
B．To try and fail on the new road facing the unknown is unavoidable．
C．There are only two ways to see a person’s growth．
D．If you are too shy to take any risks in life, you cannot grow up．

In summer, millions of people will head for the beach. And while the ocean can be a great place to swim and play, it may also be useful in another way. Some scientists think that waves could help make electricity.
“Have you ever been on a surfboard or boat and felt yourself being lifted up by a wave? Or have you jumped in the water and felt the energy as waves crashed over you?” asked Jamie Taylor of the Wave Energy Group at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland．“There is certainly a lot of energy in waves．”
Scientists are working on using that energy to make electricity．
Most waves are created when winds blow across the ocean．“The winds start out by making little ripples (波纹) in the water, but if they keep on blowing , those ripples get bigger and bigger and turn into waves, ”Taylor said．“Waves are one of nature’s ways of picking up energy and then sending it off on a journey．”
When waves come towards the shore, people can set up dams or other barricades to block the water and send it through a large wheel called a turbine (涡轮) ．The turbine can then power an electrical generator (发电机) ．
The United States and a few other countries have started doing research on wave energy , and it is already being used in Scotland．
The resource is huge．We will never run out of wave power, besides, wave energy does not create the same pollution as other energy sources, such as oil and coal．
Oceans cover three quarters of the earth’s surface．That would make wave power seem perfect for creating energy around the world．There are some drawbacks, however．
Jamie Taylor said that wave power still cost too much money．He said that its effects on animals in the sea were still unknown．Plus, wave power would get in the way of fishing and boat traffic．
With more research, however, “many of these problems might be overcome,” Taylor said．“Demand for energy to power our TVs and computers, drive our cars, and heat and cool our homes is growing quickly throughout the world．Finding more energy sources is very important, for traditional sources of energy like oil and gas may run out some day．”
In the future, when you turn on a light switch, an ocean wave could be providing the electricity!
68．Which of the following is NOT true?
A．Wave power costs too much money．
B．Wave energy creates the same amount of pollution as other energy sources．
C．Wave power affects fishing and boat traffic．
D．Wave power may affect marine animals．
69．We can infer from the passage that ______．
A．finding more new energy sources is not necessary because of wave energy
B．wave energy is a resource that will never run out and is used all over the world
C．wave power is perfect for creating energy around the world
D．wave power doesn’t create any pollution
70．The underlined word “drawbacks” probably means ______．
A．regrets B．adventures C．disadvantages D．difficulties
71．What can be the best title for the passage?
A．How to Get Electricity by Waves． B．The Advantages of Wave Energy.
C．Can Waves Make Electricity? D．The Disadvantages of Wave Energy．

If you look up the word “create” in the dictionary, you will find it means “to brig into being to cause to exist something each of us does daily.”
We are creative whenever we look at or think about something in a new way. First this involves an awareness of our surroundings. It means using all of our sonses to become aware of our world. This may be as simple as being aware of color and texture（质地）, as well as taste, when we plan a meal. Above all, it is the ability to notice things that others might miss.
A second part of creativity is an ability to see relationships among things. If we believe the expression, “There is nothing new under the sun, the creativity is remaking or recombining（重组） the old in new ways.” For example, we might do this by finding a more effective way to study or a better way to arrange our furniture, or we might make a new combination of camera lenses and filters to create an unusual photograph.
A third part of creativity is the courage and drive to make use of our new ideas, to apply them to achieve some new results. To think up a new concept is one thing; to put the idea to work is another.
These three parts of creativity are involved in all the great works of genius, but they are also involved in many of our day-to-day activities.
64．Which of the following activities is NOT a creative one according to the passage?
A．To prepare a meal.
B．To arrange the furniture in a peculiar way.
C．To buy some books from a bookstore.
D．To “write” a letter with the computer.
65．“There is nothing new under the sun.” (Par.3) really implies that ____.
A．a new thing can only be created at the basis of earlier things
B．a new thing is only a tale
C．we can seldom create new things
D．we can scarcely see really new things in the world
66．What does the author think about the relationship between a new thought and its being put into
practice?
A．It´s more difficult to create a new thought than to apply it in practice.
B．To find a new thought will definitely lead to the production of a new thing.
C．A man with an excellent ability of practice can easily become an inventor.
D．One may come up with a new thought, but can not put it into practice.
67．The best title for this passage is ____.
A．How to Cultivate One´s Creativity
B．What is Creativity
C．The Importance of Creativity
D．Creativity, a Not Farway Thing
