A. Choose the best answer （根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案) (12分)
Today many students have much trouble when they are at school. They are in great need of confidence, independence and patience. Some middle students can be easy to angry with their classmates, teachers and parents. How to deal with these problems Some experts give some advice on how to help students to build their patience, independence and confidence.
You must have enough patience if your students are patient about everything. Experts find that fishing, light music or taking walks is good for children to develop their patience. They suggest parents and teachers to give their children some time to do their own things and allow them to have their choices about some clothes, hairstyle and hobbies and so on so as to help kids train their patience.
As for independence, teachers should help their students to know how to be independent when they are alone at school or outside. First of all, parents and teachers should teach the importance of the independence to the students. In the USA, parents never help their children stand up when they fall down as their kids were very young. They let their kids start to know how to be independence by themselves. They also like to talk with their kids like friends all the time.
Some students don’t have confidence to do something because they can’t get along well with others. The experts advise parents and teachers to encourage their kids as much as possible. Also, we must learn about the kids by respecting them and knowing about everything about them and looking for their advantages.
( ) 69. According to the writer, students need independence, patience and _________ a lot.
A. trouble B. advice C. confidence D. training
( ) 70. The following can help students have patience EXCEPT _________.
A. action movies B. fishing C. taking walks D. light music
( ) 71. In America, parents and their kids are like _________ so that they often have time to talk with each other.
A. relatives B. friends C. classmates D. patients

A. You must finish the homework today.
B. You can read these story books at home.
C. You are so clever that you can win an “A” in the exam.
D. You can’t be late for school again.
( ) 73. Letting young kids stand up alone can help them develop their _________.
A. difference B. confidence

D. Answer the questions （根据短文内容回答下列问题) (第88题1分，第89—92题每小题2分，第93题3分；共12分)
One morning it took me an hour to watch a small ant carry a huge feather across my back porch (走廊). Several times it met objects on its path and after a short time it would go around them.
At one point the ant had to deal with a crack (裂缝) about 10mm wide. After a short time of thought, the ant laid the feather over the crack, walked across it and picked it up on the other side then continued on its way.
I was attracted by the cleverness of this ant, one of God’s smallest creatures (生物). Here was an insect, tiny, yet given a brain to think, explore, discover and beat difficulties. But this ant, just like people, also shares human weaknesses.
After some time the ant finally reached its home—a flower bed at the end of the porch and a small hole that was the entrance to its underground home. And it was here that the ant finally faced the problem. How could that large feather possibly fit down the small hole
Of course it couldn’t. So the ant, after all this trouble and using much creativity, beating difficulties all along the way, just left the feather behind and went home.
The ant had not thought the problem through before it began its brave journey and in the end the feather was nothing more than a heavy weight.
Isn’t our life like that We worry about how much money we have, we worry about work, about where we live, about all kinds of things. These worries are heavy things, and they make an already difficult life even more difficult. Worrying will do nothing good for us. When we get to where we want to be in life, we will understand that worrying can only bring us down.
88. Did the writer show great interest in the ant at first
_________________________________________________________
89. How did the ant cross the crack
_________________________________________________________
90. Where is the ant’s home
