A famous study was done in a school by a professor （教授） from a university. At the start of the school year, the teachers were given the names of five children. They were told that these five were the most excellent students in the class. But the fact was that these students were only average(中等)，and they were not the best students at all. Well, guess what? At the end of the year, all the five average students scored among the highest in the class.
What made these average students change so much to become top students？The only difference was the change in their teachers’ attitude(态度). Because the teachers believed that these five kids were the top students，they expected(期望) more from them. And so these five average students began to believe and expect more from themselves. So they worked harder to do as well as they could.
Do you know why? If you expect the best from people, they’ll usually want to give you their best. A great leader said, “Treat(对待) a person just how he appears to be on the outside, and you’ll make him even worse. But treat a person like he’s already a success，and you’ll help make him the best he can be.”
Like the true story of 7-year-old Johnny, his teacher got so angry with him that one day she said，“Johnny，you’re the naughtiest(最顽皮的) boy in this class. I’m sure you’ll never change.” The next year Johnny had a new teacher. And on the first day of class，she met with Johnny after school and said，“Johnny, I’ve heard a lot about you! But do you know that I don’t believe a word of it.” And every day after that, this new teacher treated Johnny as if he was one of the smartest students even when Johnny did naughty things. Later on, Johnny became a school leader. Because that’s the power of our belief(信任) and attitude(态度) toward children.The professor started his research(研究)by _______.
| A．teaching the five children himself |
| B．asking the five children to find a new teacher |
| C．telling the five students to work harder than ever before |
| D．telling the teacher the five students were the best in the class |
The five average students became top students mainly because of ________.
| A．the professor’s study |
| B．the teachers’ hard work |
| C．the change in the teachers’ attitude |

| A．To let us know how good his new teacher was. |
| B．To show the importance of encouragement. |

Weddings are quite different——from nation to nation, from area to area, and from the past to the present. However, all people consider weddings to be important and happy events.
People in the Western world go to church for their weddings, while some tribes（部落） in Africa hold their weddings in the open around a campfire, with much dancing.
In China, weddings are different from those abroad. People in the countryside used to carry the bride in a sedan chair from her parents’ house to her new home. Now sedan chairs are seldom seen. Instead, the bridegroom may take the bride to their own new house by bicycle or by tractor（拖拉机）. In the city the bride usually prefers a car, brightly decorated(装饰) with flowers and a Chinese character(汉字) meaning double happiness. However, a wedding dinner is necessary in both the countryside and the city. Relatives(亲戚) and friends who are invited to the dinner usually drink to the happiness of the bride and bridegroom.What do people all over the world think of weddings?
| A．interesting and easy | B．important and fun |
| C．happy and important | D．interesting and happy |

“Excuse me,” said a young man, standing shyly at the open church door. “I’m here to pick up an Easter basket for my daughter. Am I in the right place?” Well, we have baskets, but they’re not Easter baskets for kids; they’re food baskets,” I explained.
That morning I arrived at St. Micheal’s Church in Carmichael, California, to help give out the baskets to needy families for Easter. To make sure every family would receive one, we had handed out numbers to them that matched the basket they were supposed to receive. Each one contained a whole ham, potatoes, bread, vegetables, and a pie --- enough food to help feed a family for a week.
“Why don’t you come in?” I said to the man. He looked disappointed. He shook his head and said, “I can’t... My daughter is waiting for me over there. I’m grateful for the food, but when I heard you were giving away baskets for Easter ... well, I thought they would be Easter baskets for children.” He continued, “I promised my daughter one, and I wanted to surprise her.”
I felt bad, but there was nothing I could do. The man handed me his number, and I walked over to the baskets. A bulge(凸起) in one of the baskets caught my eye. “What is that?” I wondered. Leaning over and looking more closely, I could see, unmistakably, an Easter basket --- filled with candy, chocolate, and Easter eggs. One of the volunteers must have added it by mistake! I thought. Then I looked at the man’s number in my hand. Well, he’ll be....
“Happy Easter,” I said to the man, handing him the only food basket with an Easter basket inside --- the very same basket with his number on it. “Someone knew just what you needed.”The young man had thought that ____________.

English breakfast is a big meal-eggs, tomatoes, tea, coffee. . .
For many people, lunch is a quick meal. In cities, there are a lot of sandwich bars. There office workers can buy their favorite bread-brown, white, or a roll and even all kinds of salad, meat and fish. School children can have a hot meal at school. But many just take a sandwich, a soft drink and some fruit from home.
“Tea” means two things. It is a drink and also a meal! Some people have afternoon tea with sandwiches, cakes and a cup of tea.
They usually have the evening meal quite late, between 6: 00 pm and 8: 00 pm, and often all the family eat together.
On Sundays, many families have a traditional lunch. They have chicken, pork with potatoes, vegetables. . .

When does music in public places become noise pollution?
You may like at least some kind of music. But the problem is that, in lots of places, you’re made to hear somebody else’s choice in music. Say you’ve just landed at an airport. At the airport, the “background” （背景）music may be played loudly.
When you are on the way to your hotel, there may be another kind of music played by the taxi driver. Then you finally reach your hotel. But when you are taking the elevator(电梯)，there is elevator music.
You go out to dinner and end up in a place where the owner of the restaurant thinks music will help make you eat more and spend more. Then a person playing the violin comes around. This is called the “music wallpaper”. It is to make you buy more and eat a lot. Even the government thinks this is “noise pollution,” especially when the music is too loud.
Noise pollution may be bad for our hearing. It’s also bad for some of our daily activities, such as sleeping, conversations and so on.
The fact that you can’t see, taste or smell it may help explain why it has not received as much attention as other kinds of pollution, such as air pollution or water pollution. The air around us is always filled with sounds, but most of us would not think we are surrounded(包围) by noise. This can be bad for our health. So many people like soft and quiet music in their house. In the restaurant, the music is to make you _____________.
| A．have a nice meal |
| B．eat more food and spend more money |
| C．enjoy some wonderful music |
| D．have a great time in the restaurant |
This passage doesn’t talk about ___________.
| A．food pollution | B．water pollution |
| C．air pollution | D．noise pollution |
Music in public places becomes noise pollution because __________.
| A．it’s played at the airport |
| B．it’s played by the taxi driver |
| C．it’s played when you are taking the elevator |
| D．you are made to hear someone else’s choice in music |
From the passage we know that ___________.
| A．music that is too loud is bad for our health |
| B．people pay as much attention to noise pollution as they do to air pollution |
| C．people like loud music in their house |
| D．most people think that there’s lots of noise around us |
Mrs Jones’ telephone number is 2562781 and the number of the city cinema(电影院)is 2562718. because the two numbers look the same(一样), some people often make a mistake(弄错)and telephone her when they want the cinema.
One evening, the Jones are having supper at the table. Just then, the telephone bell rings. Mrs Jones goes to answer the telephone. A tired（累的）man says, “Excuse me, at what time does your last movie begin?”
“I’m sorry.” says Mrs Jones, “But you have the wrong(错误的)number. This is not the cinema.”
“Oh, sorry, it began twenty minutes ago(以前)? Thank you all the same. Goodbye.” Says the man.
Mrs Jones is very surprised(惊讶), so she tells her husband（丈夫）the whole thing. Her husband, Mr Jones laughs(笑)and says: “I see. The man’s wife wants to go to a movie, but he is tired. He doesn’t want to go to a movie. So he telephones the cinema. His wife hears(听见)him, but she can’t hear you. Now they stay at home this evening, and the husband is very happy and he can have a good rest(休息)at home.”
根据上文内容判断正（T）误（F）。Mrs Jones’ telephone number is the same as the number of the city cinema.
People often telephone Mrs Jones when they want the cinema.
One evening when the telephone bell rings, they are having supper.
The tired man wants to know when the last film begins.

"Can I see my baby?" the happy new mother asked. When the baby was lying in her arms and she moved the cloth to look upon his tiny face, she gasped(吃力地喘着气). The doctor turned quickly and looked out of the hospital window. The baby had been born without ears. Luckily, time proved that the baby's hearing was perfect. Though the misfortune(不幸)happened to him, he grew into a handsome boy. Yet he felt ashamed when he communicated with others.
“You should get in touch with other young people,” his mother told him, with a kindness in her heart. The boy’s father talked with the family doctor about his ears. “Could nothing be done?” the father asked. “I believe I could give him a pair of outer ears, if they could be got,” the doctor replied.
Two years went by. One day, his father said to the son, “You are going to the hospital, Son. Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need, but it’s a secret.” The operation is a big success. Later he married and entered the diplomatic(外交的)service. One day, he asked his father, “Who gave the ears? Who gave me so much? I could never do enough for him or her.”
“You could, my son,” said the father, “but the agreement was that you are not to know…not yet.”
The years kept their secret, but one of the darkest days did come. He stood with his father over his mother’s casket(棺材). Slowly, the father stretched forth(伸出) a hand
and raised the thick, reddish brown hair to reveal the mother had no outer ears.

Most American students have said goodbye to fancy(高级的) fruits these days. In school canteens across the country, cheaper fruits like apples and oranges have taken their places.
“People are afraid to spend now,” said Linda Morrow, who owns a shoe and handbag store. “They don’t know what the future will bring.”
During the financial crisis(金融危机), several of the country’s biggest banks have been forced to sell or close. This has made lots of Americans afraid to buy expensive goods.
Samira Marino, a restaurant owner in Miami, has found everyone is ordering water instead of juice and more people are sharing meals. In more than two dozen interviews with The Associated Press across the country last month, Americans talked about their concerns, from worries about small businesses to doubts about simply making ends meet.
The crisis began last year. Experts think it was because US banks lend money too easily. Last year a lot of people and companies, who borrowed money, have found themselves unable to pay it back. This left the banks, as well as the people who put their money in the banks, without money. Since the banks borrowed money between themselves and even across borders(国界), the whole world was in trouble.
This month the US government agreed on a $700 billion plan to try to save the financial market. But no one is sure whether it will help or not. President George W. Bush has warned it will take some time.
Last week top finance officials from 20 countries promised to work together to find a way out of the money trouble.Why are people in the US afraid to spend?
| A．Because they think it’s unnecessary. |
| B．Because they don’t have the habit of spending money. |

| A．tells what it is like in a crisis |
| B．explains why there is a crisis |
| C．warns people of the danger of the crisis |
| D．asks people not to borrow money from banks |
People feel ______ about the US plan to save the market.
| A．satisfied | B．doubtful | C．hopeless | D．angry |
The best title for the story is ________.
| A．Ways to make ends meet |
| B．The money problem facing the world |
| C．Healthy fancy fruits |
| D．The art of borrowing |
Height is just one of the thousands of features (特征) that your genes (基因) decide. In fact, because you have two parents, your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent. If both your parents are tall, then maybe you will be tall, too, but if you have questions about how tall you’re going to be, ask your doctor if he or she can help you find it out.
But genes don’t decide everything. For example, eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to your full potential (潜力). Getting enough sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the right height.
No doubt you’re wondering how fast you should grow. There’s no perfect or right answer. Kids grow about 2 inches (5 centimetres) a year between age 3 and the time when they start puberty (when your body starts changing and becoming more grown up).
Your doctor will know how your growth has been going over the years. Two centimetres here and 2 inches there are not nearly as important as the height you’re at now, how you’ve been growing up to this point, and what other changes your body may be going through.
Don’t be scared if you seem to have grown a lot in a very short time. Everyone has a very quick growth during puberty. The age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for boys. But it can be earlier or later – between 7 and 13 for girls, 9 and 15 for boys.
You’ll usually begin to notice that you’re growing faster about a year after your body starts to show the first changes of puberty.The Chinese for the underlined word in the third paragraph “puberty” is .
| A．童年时期 | B．婴幼儿时期 | C．习惯养成期 | D．青春期 |
If you want to know how fast and how tall you should grow, .
| A．you should have enough exercise |
| B．you can ask doctors for help |
| C．you should protect the environment |
| D．you can record your growth during puberty |
This passage is mainly about .
| A．how the genes work in your body |
| B．when is the time you grow fast |
| C．why you look like your parents |
| D．how you grow to a certain height |
After reading this passage, we can explain ___________.
| A．how good it is to be a doctor |
| B．how much sleep we need |
| C．why genes can’t decide everything |
| D．what an unhealthy diet is |
Which is NOT mentioned (提及) in the passage?
| A．Your height most probably depends on (取决于) how tall your parents are. |
| B．Girls’ age for starting puberty is usually earlier than that for boys’. |
| C．The time showing the first changes of puberty is never noticed. |
| D．You may be scared sometimes when you grow too fast. |

Some time ago I received a gift from both of my children. It had nothing to do with Father’s Day. Yet, at the same time it had everything to do with Father’s Day.
My son was studying in a high school in Colorado. He lived in the school. While we were talking on the phone he shared some wonderful news with me.
He said, “You know Dad, I am really happy with my life. I can’t think of a thing that I would change about the way that I grew up, or the way that my life is now. ”
My daughter was living with her mother in Northern California at that time. She said almost the same thing to me just a few days later.
Of course, I was delighted to hear this from both of them. And I told them both how happy I was, not only that they were happy ,but that they expressed it to me.
And that was the gift that they were giving me ---with the heart to communicate. Certainly I hope for good news when I hear from them. But mostly I love that they will share their real feelings with me. Happy or sad, I love to be touched(感动)by their real thoughts and feelings.
For a child, Father’s Day isn’t really about giving Dad a gift. It is about understanding the love that fathers express when they help put food on the table, teach their child to ride a bike, cheer at a soccer game, etc.
For a father, Father’s Day isn’t so much about receiving gifts for a job well done. Remember, the greatest gift that we give our children is the real expression of our love. It isn’t enough for them to feel love inside ourselves: we need to express that love.The writer’s son said on the phone.

We always want to prepare ourselves to the changes we may face when we go to a different country. Well, I have to say that for me, even after living in the US for one year and a half, I am still not used to the changes of weather, or how to manage my money well. There are many things that can give us culture shocks, but it is up to us whether to make it a big shock or a small one.
I know that changing schools was a big thing for me. It helped me to be stronger and open towards meeting new people. Sometimes it feels like everybody is already in a group. This makes it harder for someone else to go in. But, it is not that hard. Actually many people know that you are from another country. They feel curious about your “history”, and would often think you are a different man.
Another thing that can produce a shock to me is the sudden change of weather. During the last couple of days, there was an ice-snow storm. It was the biggest in 15 years in the state of Missouri. It was raining ice, really, and you could hear sounds outside the window like little pieces of rocks hitting it, of course it was the ice. It started accumulating so heavily that the University had to close down for two days, and it got worse when it started snowing after the ice storm.
As international students, you may at times find something very difficult, but hey, anyone can beat and overcome it to make studying aboard an unforgettable experience.The author has been in the US for .
| A．one year |
| B．one and a half years |

Changing schools .

| B．made it harder for the author to go into new people’s group |

| D．made all people think the author was a different man |
The underlined word “accumulating” means in Chinese.
| A．堆积 | B．融化 | C．结冰 | D．移动 |
Which of the following is NOT mentioned to be a shock for the author when he studied in the US?
A. The big changes of weather.

C.Changing schools.
D.Difference in language.What is the main idea of this article?

Have you felt annoyed when a cell phone (手机)rings during the class? Something must be done to stop this. Now in New York City, USA, a rule is carried out（执行） in schools. Students can’t even bring cell phones to school. Is it a good thing or not?
Anxious（焦虑的） parents say that cell phones are an important tool in holding New York City’s families together.
“I worry about it,” said Elizabeth Lorris Ritter, a mother of a middle school kid. “It’s necessary in our everyday life. We have a washing machine, we have running water, and we have cell phones.”
A number of Americans think cell phones connect them to children on buses, getting out from subways, walking through unknown places.
