Stephen Hawking was born in Oxford, England on 8th January,1942.He went to school in St. Albans-a small city near London. Although he did well, he was never top of his class. After leaving school, Hawking went first to Oxford University where he studied physics, and then he went to Cambridge University where he studied cosmology(宇宙学). As he himself admitted he wasn’t very serious about studying. He was a very lazy student, and did very little work. However, he still achieved extremely good marks.
Hawking first noticed something was wrong with him at the age of 20. He started to bump（撞） into things, and often fell over for no reason. When he visited his family at Christmas time, his father was so worried that he was sent to hospital for a test. Finally, the result came back. Hawking had motor neurone disease(运动神经元病), an incurable illness which causes the muscles of the body to waste away. Doctors said he would die before he was 23.
At first, Hawking became extremely depressed. After a while, though, he began to see his life in a different way. As he later wrote, “Before my illness had been diagnosed(诊断),there had not seemed to be anything worth doing. But shortly after I came out of hospital, I suddenly realized that there were a lot of worthwhile things I could do.” Hawking married, found a job at Cambridge University, where he worked all his life, and had three children. He also went to do some of the most important scientific research ever carried out.
His story shows that nobody, however bad their situation is, should lose hope. “Life is not fair,” he once said.“You just have to do the best you can in your own situation.”

The morning had been a disaster. My tooth was aching, and I’d been in an argument with a friend. Her words still hurt, “The trouble with you is that you won’t put yourself in my place. Can’t you see things from my point of view ” I shook my head stubbornly and felt the ache in my tooth. I’d thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unbearable. I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately. Finally, at about lunch time, I got lucky.
“If you come by right now,” the receptionist said, “the dentist will fit you in.”
I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car. But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist. What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice Why wasn’t he as busy as the others
In the dentist’s office, I sat down and looked around. I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried. The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one.
When I told her my fears, she laughed and said, “Don’t worry. The dentist is very good.”
“How long do I have to wait for him ” I asked impatiently.
“Come on, he is coming. Just lie down and relax. And enjoy the artwork,” the assistant said.
“The artwork ” I was puzzled.
The chair went back, suddenly I smiled. There was a beautiful picture, right where I could enjoy it----on the ceiling(天花板）. How considerate the dentist was! At that moment, I began to understand what my friend meant by her words.
What a relief!
28. Which of the following best describes the author’s feeling that morning

D. The dentist’s agreeing to treat her at very short notice.
30. Why did the author suddenly smile

D
In a recent study, researchers at Germany’s Technical University of Munich（TUM）find that trees in cities can grow up 25% faster than their country cousins. This is believed to be a direct result of the heat island effect, which is a situation where the temperature of the city is higher than the nearby rural（乡村的） areas. It’s mostly caused by the fact that buildings, roads, and many other things in the city take in a lot of sunlight and send out the sun’s heat more than natural landscapes such as forests and water bodies. A secondary cause is waste heat produced by heavy uses of energy.
For the study, TUM researchers studied 1,400 trees in 10 cities around the world, which were found in both city centers and nearby rural areas. Based on tree ring（年轮） study, researchers found that city trees are growing faster than their rural cousins. But before the 1960s, both city and rural trees grew at about the same speed.“We can show that city trees of the same age are generally larger than rural trees because they grow faster. While the difference is about a quarter at the age of 50, it is still just under 20% at a hundred years of age,” lead author Hanz Pretzch says.
Researchers from TUM also found that in some cities, higher-than-normal temperatures have led to growing seasons that are more than eight days longer than the norm. This sounds like a good thing. But while fast -growing city trees are busy taking in CO2and providing relief from the heat, they’ re also aging and dying at a faster speed than rural trees. As a result, these trees need to be replaced and replanted more frequently.
Considering the valuable “ecosystem services” that city trees provide, planning and management should follow to make a change with today’s tree growth speed. Pretzch and his team set out to perform the study largely in response to United Nation’s report that the world’s cities will experience population growth of more than 60% by 2030. And with such fast growth comes a great need for city trees that make these cities better places to live in.
32. What does the first paragraph mainly tell us
A. Cities need more trees to reduce the temperatures.
B. Humans lead to trees growing faster in cities.
C. Trees need scientific planting in rural areas.
D. Greenhouse effect is too serious in cities.
33. What can we learn from the findings of the research
A. Rural trees live twice longer than city trees.
B. City trees live for about 100 years at most.
C. Rural trees live much longer now than in the 1960s.
D. City trees grow faster at early years.
34. What is the result of city trees growing faster
A. Cities suffer more easily from natural disasters.
B. The temperatures in cities will fall greatly.
C. City trees have a shorter life circle.
D. More people move to rural areas.
35. Which of the following might be the best title for the text
A. Taking better care of urban trees
B. Planting more trees in urban areas
C. More researches to be done on urban trees
D. Urban trees growing faster than rural trees

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A man came home from work late, tired and irritated(不耐烦的), to find his 5-year-old son waiting for him at the door.
“Daddy, may I ask you a question ”
“Yeah sure, what is it ” replied the man.
“Daddy, how much do you make an hour ”
“That’s none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing ” the man said angrily.
“I just want to know. Please tell me. How much do you make an hour ” pleaded（乞求） the little boy.
“If you must know, I make $20 an hour.”
“Oh,” the little boy replied, with his head down. Looking up, he said, “Daddy, may I please borrow $10 ”
The father was angry, “If the only reason you asked that is that you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense（愚蠢的行为）, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I work hard every day for such childish（幼稚的） behavior.” The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy’s questions. “How dare he ask such questions only to get some money ” he thought to himself. After about an hour or so, the man calmed down, and started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10 and he really didn’t ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the little boy’s room and opened the door. “Are you asleep, son ” he asked.
“No, daddy, I’m awake,” replied the boy.
“I’ve been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier,” said the man. “It has been a long day and I took out my anger on you. Here’s the $10 you asked for.”
The little boy sat straight up, smiling. “Oh. Thank you, daddy!” he yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled(皱巴巴的) bills.
注意：1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右；

【原文】W: Happy, an Asian elephant, lives at a zoo in New York City. But the Nonhuman Rights Project (NhRP) says the zoo doesn’t provide the space and social contact that Happy needs. The NhRP is taking the Bronx Zoo to court.
The case has restarted conversations about whether or not zoos should still exist. Some say zoos save species from extinction and teach people about conservation. Others argue that living in the zoo is bad for an animal’s mental and physical health.
Here, Time for Kids readers weigh in.
Shane Madrak, a 10-year-old boy said, “We should still have zoos for a few reasons. Zoos provide animals with food and a suitable habitat to live in. Zoos are also trying to increase the number of animals. And most zoos have educational programs to help children learn about different animals and protection efforts.”
Susie Slawsky, a 9-year-old girl said, “Animals are kept away from their homes and put in fenced areas or cages. If the zoo is crowded, some animals might be scared. An animal’s health is more important than our entertainment.”

One possible version:
Recently going online has become more and more popular with middle school students.
In my opinion, there are some advantages for the students to go online. First, it can broaden our knowledge and make us know the latest news at home and abroad. Second, there are many learning materials on the Internet which are useful for us to learn English. Also, we can make many online friends.
However, there are some disadvantages. Most students play computer games instead of studying their lessons, which will affect their study. What’s worse, going online too often can do harm to our eyes. Besides, without much experience, it’s easy for us to make bad friends and be influenced to do stupid things.
So I think as students, we can go online properly. We should choose things which are valuable to our study and life. We must place study, health and safety before other things.
One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
The man, seeing that the boy already had money started to get angry again. “How can you be so selfish Why do you want more money since you already have these bills ” the father could hardly hold his anger back and inquired with two eyebrows knitted into one. With holding back tears in his eyes, the little boy slowly and carefully counted out his money, and then looked up at his father, replying, “Because I didn’t have enough before, but now I do.” with big blue eyes shining with tears.
Paragraph 2:
Not knowing what his son meant, the father just stood there, waiting for his boy’s explanation. Wiping away his tears and an innocent smile appearing on his face, the boy requested in a relieved voice, “Daddy, I have $20 now. Can I buy an hour from you Please come home early tomorrow. I want to have dinner with you.” Hearing the boy’s small but sincere request, the father couldn’t hold back his tears. Realizing he was too busy with his business to spare some time with his beloved ones, he gathered his son into his arms and apologized again and again, “Sorry..., and I promise I’ll be back early tomorrow.”

Stephen Hawking was born in Oxford, England on 8th January,1942.He went to school in St. Albans-a small city near London. Although he did well, he was never top of his class. After leaving school, Hawking went first to Oxford University where he studied physics, and then he went to Cambridge University where he studied cosmology(宇宙学). As he himself admitted he wasn’t very serious about studying. He was a very lazy student, and did very little work. However, he still achieved extremely good marks.
Hawking first noticed something was wrong with him at the age of 20. He started to bump（撞） into things, and often fell over for no reason. When he visited his family at Christmas time, his father was so worried that he was sent to hospital for a test. Finally, the result came back. Hawking had motor neurone disease(运动神经元病), an incurable illness which causes the muscles of the body to waste away. Doctors said he would die before he was 23.
At first, Hawking became extremely depressed. After a while, though, he began to see his life in a different way. As he later wrote, “Before my illness had been diagnosed(诊断),there had not seemed to be anything worth doing. But shortly after I came out of hospital, I suddenly realized that there were a lot of worthwhile things I could do.” Hawking married, found a job at Cambridge University, where he worked all his life, and had three children. He also went to do some of the most important scientific research ever carried out.
His story shows that nobody, however bad their situation is, should lose hope. “Life is not fair,” he once said.“You just have to do the best you can in your own situation.”

The morning had been a disaster. My tooth was aching, and I’d been in an argument with a friend. Her words still hurt, “The trouble with you is that you won’t put yourself in my place. Can’t you see things from my point of view ” I shook my head stubbornly and felt the ache in my tooth. I’d thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unbearable. I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately. Finally, at about lunch time, I got lucky.
“If you come by right now,” the receptionist said, “the dentist will fit you in.”
I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car. But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist. What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice Why wasn’t he as busy as the others
In the dentist’s office, I sat down and looked around. I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried. The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one.
When I told her my fears, she laughed and said, “Don’t worry. The dentist is very good.”
“How long do I have to wait for him ” I asked impatiently.
“Come on, he is coming. Just lie down and relax. And enjoy the artwork,” the assistant said.
“The artwork ” I was puzzled.
The chair went back, suddenly I smiled. There was a beautiful picture, right where I could enjoy it----on the ceiling(天花板）. How considerate the dentist was! At that moment, I began to understand what my friend meant by her words.
What a relief!

In a recent study, researchers at Germany’s Technical University of Munich（TUM）find that trees in cities can grow up 25% faster than their country cousins. This is believed to be a direct result of the heat island effect, which is a situation where the temperature of the city is higher than the nearby rural（乡村的） areas. It’s mostly caused by the fact that buildings, roads, and many other things in the city take in a lot of sunlight and send out the sun’s heat more than natural landscapes such as forests and water bodies. A secondary cause is waste heat produced by heavy uses of energy.
For the study, TUM researchers studied 1,400 trees in 10 cities around the world, which were found in both city centers and nearby rural areas. Based on tree ring（年轮） study, researchers found that city trees are growing faster than their rural cousins. But before the 1960s, both city and rural trees grew at about the same speed.“We can show that city trees of the same age are generally larger than rural trees because they grow faster. While the difference is about a quarter at the age of 50, it is still just under 20% at a hundred years of age,” lead author Hanz Pretzch says.
Researchers from TUM also found that in some cities, higher-than-normal temperatures have led to growing seasons that are more than eight days longer than the norm. This sounds like a good thing. But while fast -growing city trees are busy taking in CO2and providing relief from the heat, they’ re also aging and dying at a faster speed than rural trees. As a result, these trees need to be replaced and replanted more frequently.
Considering the valuable “ecosystem services” that city trees provide, planning and management should follow to make a change with today’s tree growth speed. Pretzch and his team set out to perform the study largely in response to United Nation’s report that the world’s cities will experience population growth of more than 60% by 2030. And with such fast growth comes a great need for city trees that make these cities better places to live in.
32. What does the first paragraph mainly tell us
A. Cities need more trees to reduce the temperatures.
B. Humans lead to trees growing faster in cities.
C. Trees need scientific planting in rural areas.
D. Greenhouse effect is too serious in cities.
33. What can we learn from the findings of the research
A. Rural trees live twice longer than city trees.
B. City trees live for about 100 years at most.
C. Rural trees live much longer now than in the 1960s.
D. City trees grow faster at early years.
34. What is the result of city trees growing faster
A. Cities suffer more easily from natural disasters.
B. The temperatures in cities will fall greatly.
C. City trees have a shorter life circle.
D. More people move to rural areas.
35. Which of the following might be the best title for the text
A. Taking better care of urban trees
B. Planting more trees in urban areas
C. More researches to be done on urban trees
D. Urban trees growing faster than rural trees

A man came home from work late, tired and irritated(不耐烦的), to find his 5-year-old son waiting for him at the door.
“Daddy, may I ask you a question ”
“Yeah sure, what is it ” replied the man.
“Daddy, how much do you make an hour ”
“That’s none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing ” the man said angrily.
“I just want to know. Please tell me. How much do you make an hour ” pleaded（乞求） the little boy.
“If you must know, I make $20 an hour.”
“Oh,” the little boy replied, with his head down. Looking up, he said, “Daddy, may I please borrow $10 ”
The father was angry, “If the only reason you asked that is that you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense（愚蠢的行为）, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I work hard every day for such childish（幼稚的） behavior.” The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy’s questions. “How dare he ask such questions only to get some money ” he thought to himself. After about an hour or so, the man calmed down, and started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10 and he really didn’t ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the little boy’s room and opened the door. “Are you asleep, son ” he asked.
“No, daddy, I’m awake,” replied the boy.
“I’ve been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier,” said the man. “It has been a long day and I took out my anger on you. Here’s the $10 you asked for.”
The little boy sat straight up, smiling. “Oh. Thank you, daddy!” he yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled(皱巴巴的) bills.

【原文】W: Happy, an Asian elephant, lives at a zoo in New York City. But the Nonhuman Rights Project (NhRP) says the zoo doesn’t provide the space and social contact that Happy needs. The NhRP is taking the Bronx Zoo to court.
The case has restarted conversations about whether or not zoos should still exist. Some say zoos save species from extinction and teach people about conservation. Others argue that living in the zoo is bad for an animal’s mental and physical health.
Here, Time for Kids readers weigh in.
Shane Madrak, a 10-year-old boy said, “We should still have zoos for a few reasons. Zoos provide animals with food and a suitable habitat to live in. Zoos are also trying to increase the number of animals. And most zoos have educational programs to help children learn about different animals and protection efforts.”
Susie Slawsky, a 9-year-old girl said, “Animals are kept away from their homes and put in fenced areas or cages. If the zoo is crowded, some animals might be scared. An animal’s health is more important than our entertainment.”

One possible version:
Recently going online has become more and more popular with middle school students.
In my opinion, there are some advantages for the students to go online. First, it can broaden our knowledge and make us know the latest news at home and abroad. Second, there are many learning materials on the Internet which are useful for us to learn English. Also, we can make many online friends.
However, there are some disadvantages. Most students play computer games instead of studying their lessons, which will affect their study. What’s worse, going online too often can do harm to our eyes. Besides, without much experience, it’s easy for us to make bad friends and be influenced to do stupid things.
So I think as students, we can go online properly. We should choose things which are valuable to our study and life. We must place study, health and safety before other things.
One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
The man, seeing that the boy already had money started to get angry again. “How can you be so selfish Why do you want more money since you already have these bills ” the father could hardly hold his anger back and inquired with two eyebrows knitted into one. With holding back tears in his eyes, the little boy slowly and carefully counted out his money, and then looked up at his father, replying, “Because I didn’t have enough before, but now I do.” with big blue eyes shining with tears.
Paragraph 2:
Not knowing what his son meant, the father just stood there, waiting for his boy’s explanation. Wiping away his tears and an innocent smile appearing on his face, the boy requested in a relieved voice, “Daddy, I have $20 now. Can I buy an hour from you Please come home early tomorrow. I want to have dinner with you.” Hearing the boy’s small but sincere request, the father couldn’t hold back his tears. Realizing he was too busy with his business to spare some time with his beloved ones, he gathered his son into his arms and apologized again and again, “Sorry..., and I promise I’ll be back early tomorrow.”
