The newspaper said the six-year-old girls par

13、ents were unhappy with a teacher she just got the new job to teach the only pupil. The school was closed for the last nine months after its former(前任的) teacher retired（退休）and the only other pupil moved on to a secondary school. The new teacher, Ms Puckey, was to start teaching the girl and reopen(重开

14、) the school. But the girls mother is keeping her daughter at home. I was not pleased with the new teacher, the mother said, I told the old teacher as far back as last September that if Ms Puckey got the job, my children would not be going to school. The school is on an island(岛) off the northeast c

15、oast(海岸) of Scotland. Although there was only one pupil, the school is very good in many ways and has a headmaster, three computers, a television and an art room as well as a school house with three bedrooms.1The reading is about_.Athe smallest school that was closed downBthe only pupil in the small

But all kinds in the animal world can communicate in one way or another. Maybe you have heard about the

19、 way bees dance around to send messages to each other and the way dogs bark in different ways to give warnings, to be friendly or to be playful. But did you know about infrasonic communication used by elephants? This is how it works:Humans hear low sounds like thunder rumbling in the sky. But we don

20、t hear sounds lower than this. However, animals such as elephants and hippos can hear much lower sounds than humans can. And whats more, they can make those low sounds as well, and they use them to communicate with each other. This is known as infrasound. The amazing thing about infrasound is that i

21、t travels over several kilometers. Higher-level sounds like the one people can hear, dont travel well through walls, leaves, trees and so on, which is why we cant hear sounds from more than 100 meters away. But infrasound is much stronger and things like grass and trees have no influence on it. Ther

22、efore, it can travel much further. Elephants can hear infrasonic calls from four kilometers away!There have been reports of people watching groups of elephants feeding or resting and then the elephants suddenly all stopped what they were doing for no reason at all. They obviously heard a warning cal

23、l from a long way away, but the people didnt hear a sound. In places like a zoo or wildlife park where you can get nearer to animals, it is a bit easier to sense when infrasonic sounds are made. When you stand near mother elephants with their babies in a zoo, you may notice a slight rumbling in the

24、air every few minutesnot loud or strong, but clearly noticed. This is infrasonic communicationthe mother elephants “talking” to their babies.1Why does the writer mention bees and dogs in Paragraph1?ABecause they use infrasonic communication.BBecause they communicate like the elephants.CBecause they

25、are examples of animal communication.DBecause people want to learn how they communicate.2Which of the following is TRUE about infrasound?AHumans can hear infrasound easily.BIt travels nearly several kilometers.CIt sounds low but cant travel very far.DIt travels well through walls, leaves and so on.3

26、In places like zoos, _.Aelephants dont need to make infrasonic soundsBit is easier for elephants to make infrasonic soundsCmother elephants dont let people stand near their babiesDhumans can easily sense infrasonic sounds when they are made4Which would be the best title for the passage?ATalking to h

27、umans BTalking to animalsCPlaying with humans DPlaying with elephantsC15、Today we are developing a new ideaMoney is the measure of all things. More and more, people are being judged by what they own, and not by their good qualities. This is certainly true among many people in China.According to a su

28、rvey that was done in 2013, China is the most materialistic(物欲的) country in the world. Twenty-three percent of Chinese said they measured success by the things they owned (cars, homes, jewelry, designer clothes) compared with just 21 percent in America, 20 percent in Canada, and 16 percent in Britai

29、n.This love of materialistic has spread into schools where some kids like to show off their Apple Watches, iPhone7 and expensive running shoes. Some poorer students now feel worried by their richer classmates and sad by their poor families. In some cases this has affected their performance in school

30、.But having rich parents doesnt automatically(自动地) bring good grades and having poor parents doesnt certainly bring bad grades. It is hard wok that is the key to success, not the cost of your running shoes. And hard work is what develops good characters, not money, that should be the measure of all

31、things.1What is the measure of all things for many people in China?ASuccess. BThe good quality. CThe good grades. DMoney.2According to the survey, how many Chinese judged success by the things they owned?A23% of Chinese. B21% of Chinese. C20% of Chinese. D16% of Chinese.3Why do some students like sh

32、owing off expensive things in school?ABecause their families are very rich.BBecause of the worship of materialism.CBecause expensive things can bring good grades.DBecause they are good at all kinds of subjects.4What can we infer from the passage?APoor students can hardly get good grades.BRich studen

33、ts have the worship of materialism.CWe should correct the worship of materialism.DCanadians have the least the worship of materialism in rate.D16、Long long ago, there lived a wise master in the mountains. He was considered to be the cleverest man in the world. One day, an unhappy young man came to a

34、n old master and told him that he had a very sad life and asked for a solution.The old Master ordered the unhappy young man to put a handful of salt in a glass of water and then to drink it.“How does it taste?” the Master asked.“Terrible,” the young man answered, with a painful expression.The Master

35、 then asked the Youngman to take another handful of salt and held it in his hand.

36、ster asked, “How does it taste?”“Good!” said the young man, in a pleased voice.“Do you taste the salt?” asked the Master.“No.”The Master sat beside this troubled young man, took his hands, and said, “The pain of life is pure salt, no more, no less. The amount of pain in life remains the same, exactl

37、y the same. But the amount we taste the pain depends on the container we put it into. So when you are in pain, the key thing you can do is to enlarge your sense of things. Stop being a glass. Become a lake.”1Why did the young man come to the old master?ABecause he wanted to learn some living skills.

38、BBecause he wanted to ask for some advice.CBecause he wanted to make friends with the master.DBecause he lived close to the old master.2What did the master ask the man to do at first?ATo put a handful salt in the lake.BTo drink the salty water in the glass.CTo taste the water in the lake.DTo put som

39、e salt in the glass.3How did the man feel after he drank water from the lake?AHe felt the water was terrible.BHe felt unhappy.CHe felt the water was OK.DHe felt puzzled.4What does the underlined word “container” mean?A条件 B容器 C结果 D集装箱5Whats the best title?ASalty water! BHave a taste! CBe a lake! DNo

47、ka and Canada to find snowstorms and take pictures of the snowflakes. “They are often beautiful, and every snowfall brings new surprises,” says Ken.Ken takes pictures of snowflakes with a high-quality digital camera. He uses a microscope (显微镜) to make the tiny snowflakes larger. To get the best imag

48、es, Ken built a special photo-microscope just for snowflakes. He collects flakes by letting them fall onto a piece of foam board (泡沫板).The pictures must be taken outdoors, so Ken wears lots of clothes to stay warm. But his fingers often get cold, because its difficult for him to take pictures of a t

49、iny snowflake with gloves.Each snowflake has shapes and patterns (图案) that make it as unique (独特的) as a persons fingerprint. The hobby of snowflake photography is also unique.
