Passage 1
Ma Yan is not really a writer. But this 15-year-old girl has written a book that has moved(感动)many people around the world. “Ma Yan’s Diary” tells us about Ma’s life. She lives in a poor village called Zhangjiashu in Tongxin, Ningxia, and she has no money to go to school. But she is brave and has a strong desire(欲望) to go to school.
Her mother gave her diary to a French reporter, Pierre Haski when he went to Zhangjiashu in 2001. Now, it has been published(出版)in France, Italy, Germany, Japan and China.
Ma is now a Junior Three student at Yuwang Middle School in Tongxin. Before this, she had to leave school twice. When she had to stop going to school the first time, her mum told her there was no money for her to go to school. She worked for 21 days and saved 13 yuan. With this money, she went back to school. The second time, her family told her she had to leave school but her two brothers could stay.
“I want to study,” Ma wrote in her diary. “Why can boys study but girls can’t? It would be wonderful if I could stay at school forever.”
Ma loves school so much because she wants to have a better life.
“My parents work hard in the fields but they are still poor. They have no knowledge. Most girls in my village leave school early and get married young. I don’t want that kind of life.” Ma said.

Passage 3
How old is “old”? The answer has changed over the years. Two hundred years ago, you were old at the age of 35. At the beginning of the 20th century(世纪), the average life span(平均寿命) was 45. In 1950,70-year-olds were really old. Today, a healthy 70-year-old person is still thought young.
So, how old is old? The answer is one you've heard many times, from all kinds of people. “You are as old(or young) as you feel.” Your age tells you how many years you have lived. Your body tells you how well you've lived.
“Nobody grows old by living a number of(许多)years,” wrote a writer. “People grow old when they don't have their ideals (理想).” People should not have the wrong ideals about aging. Sometimes, old minds can be as bright as young minds. Alice Brophy once said, “It makes me happy what people say. You look young for your age.” What does that mean? It means that you can die old at 30 (可能30岁老死) or live young at 80.
( )61. About 100 years ago, the average life span was _______.
A.35 B.80 C.70 D.45
( )62. The meaning of the word “aging” is _______.
growing old B. staying young C. keeping healthy D. feeling unhappy
( )63. According to the passage, which of the following is true?
A. Older people are not as bright as young people.
B. All older people are healthy and strong.
C. Aging does not mean you become unhealthy.
D. Most older people are unhealthy and poor.
( )64. Which question is NOT answered in the passage?
A. Can old people be as bright as young people? B. How old is “old” ?
C. What tells you how well you've lived? D. What is the average life span today?
( )65.The passage is mainly about _______.
the average life span B. aging
C. the 20th century D. older people and young people
Passage 4
Have you ever thought of such questions as “Why do I have to study math?” or “I am not interested in history at all. My dream is to be an engineer. Should I give history up?”
Maybe you are right. After you leave school, it’s not necessary for you to understand everything. But please remember that at school, besides getting knowledge, you should pay attention to some other important things.
First ,try to find what you are most interested in. At school, you study many subjects. Try to find what you like and what you don’t like. This may be helpful to you in the future.
Second, maybe you don’t like math and you want to drop it. But the logical thinking ability(逻辑思维能力) from math can help you solve some problems. At school, you should practice your brain(大脑)by thinking.
Third, you should believe in yourself. Maybe you learn French at school, but you don’t need to speak French at all. But learning French can prove(证明) that you have the ability(能力)of learning languages. Suppose you go to Germany one day and find a job well. At school I learned French well, and now I must be able to learn German.” But if you have no confidence(信心), what will happen?
Try to challenge yourself as often as possible. I think many of us like playing computer games. When we fail in a game, we always want to try it again. Why? Because it is hard for us to get the highest mark. If we want to challenge ourselves, we must face more difficult things and make greater progress.
( ) 66. At school you should _________.
A. stop learning the subjects you don’t like
B. both get knowledge and improve your ability
C. pay more attention to math
D. learn French instead of English
( ) 67. Math can improve one’s _______.
A. thinking ability B. skills in computer
C. interesting in other subjects D. ability of finding a job.
( ) 68. which of the following is TRUE?
A. You will use everything you learn at school in your future job.
B. It’s not necessary to know what you like at school.
C. Everything you learn at school has an influence on you.
D. Logical thinking ability is the most important ability.
( ) 69. Learning French can help us ________.
A. have confidence in learning languages B. go to Germany
C. get a good result in the exam D. in nothing
( ) 70. The last paragraph tells us that ________.
A. everyone loves to play computer games
B. it is not easy to get high marks in computer games.
