Many animals use some kinds of “language”. They use signals(信号) and the signals have meanings. For example, __1 a bee has found some food, it goes 2 its home. 3 is difficult for a bee to tell __4 bees where the food is speaking to them, but it can do a little dancing. This tells the bees where the food is and 5 it is.
Some animals show 6 they feel by making sounds. It is not difficult to tell if a dog is angry because it barks. Birds make several different sounds and 7 has its meaning. Sometimes we humans make sounds in the same way. We make sounds like “Oh” to 8 how we feel about __9__ or we 10 something on our feet.
We humans have languages. We have words. These words have meaning of things, action, feeling or ideas. We are able to __11__ each other information, to tell other people 12 we think or we feel. By writing down words, we can remember what has happened or 13 messages to people far away.
Languages, like people, live and die. If a language is not used by people, it is called a dead language. This language cannot live and grow because 14 speaks it.
A living language, of course, is often spoken by people today. It grows and changes with time. New words are created, and some old words have 15 meanings.

Debbie once told me about a boy in her class who liked 5 school. He would rub(摩擦) the end of the thermometer (温度计) until it went 6 to 39℃. Then he’d put it in his mouth and his mother would think he was 7 ill.
This morning I tried doing that but it 8 went above 35℃ and I rubbed it for ten 9 . So I held the thermometer 10 the light on my desk and it went up to 40℃. I thought I’d put it in my mouth and walk downstairs like that. 11 my mother would take it out and she would be 12 when she saw that I was rather ill.
The only trouble was I didn’t know the thermometer would be so 13 , As soon as I put it into my mouth I burnt my tongue(舌头)! I spit (吐) the thermometer out. It fell 14 the floor but it 15 .

完形填空---------B
I used to hate being called upon in class mainly because I didn’t like attention drawn to myself. And 1 otherwise assignee（指定）a seat by the teacher, I always 2 to sit at the back of the classroom.
All this 3 after I joined a sports team. It began when a teacher suggested I try out for the basketball team. At first I thought it was a crazy 4 because I didn’t have a good sense of balance, nor did I have the 5 to keep pace with the others on the team and they would tease me. But for the teacher who kept insisting on my “ 6 for it”, I wouldn’t have decided to give a try.
Getting up t he courage to go to the tryouts was only the 7 of it! When I first started 8
the practice sessions, I didn’t even know the rules of the game, much 9 what I was doing. Sometimes I’d get 10 and take a shot at the wrong direction—which made me feel really stupid. 11 , I wasn’t the only one “new” at the game, so I decided to 12 on learning the game, do my best at each practice session, and not be too hard on myself for the things I didn’t 13 “just yet”.
I practiced and practiced. Soon I knew the 14 and the “moves”. Being part of a team was fun and motivating. Very soon the competitive 15 in me was winning over my lack of confidence. With time, I learned how to play and made friends in the 16 — friends who respect my efforts to work hard and be a team player. I never had so much fun!
With my 17 self-confidence comes more praise from teachers and classmates. I have gone from 18 in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call attention to myself, 19
raising my hand — even when I sometimes wasn’t and not 100 percent 20 I had the right answer. Now I have more self-confidence in myself.

文章大意：主人公本身没有能力或者不去想象、不过那想像自己有能力做某事，经过老师点拨、帮忙下克服自卑，并且学会了展示自己。
1. C 考察逻辑关系 ，and提示前后句间是并列关系，前一句说我不喜欢被被人关注，那么我一定总是坐在无人关注的角落，那么老师指派座位不过是一个想法、一种假设，于是选择C
2. D 考查动词 我对于坐在教室的后面是我自己选择的
3. B 考察动词，根据文章的叙述，在参加了运动会后我之前的状态显然是改变了
4. A 考察名词 老师建议我参加篮球队这显然是一个想法，而我认为这很疯狂
5. C 考察名词 与其他人保持同步这是我的一种“能力”的体现，这与“权利”，“机会”或者“耐心”没有任何关联。
6. A 考查动词 it显然指代我参加篮球队这件事情，那么对这件事情老师坚持的就是让我去尝尝，其它选项中，“欢呼”与“看”显然是无关选项，而既然老师已经积极鼓励我说明他已经同意了，无需我再申请，那么排除D，最后总选择A
7. B 考察名词，句末的叹号提示这里有极端情况出现，所以才会感叹，而鼓起勇气去选拔赛仅仅是成功的“一点”、“剩下”或者“基础”显然不合理，于是选择B，仅仅是一半，体现了感叹。
8. C 【解析】考查动词，根据动作的先后顺序，我显示鼓起勇气参加了选拔赛，而后文又说我不懂规则，那么昭示着我此时正在训练赛中，选择C，参加比赛
9. A 考查形容词，修饰后半句“我正在做的事情”，因为前文交代了我的平衡能力差、跟不上大家的步伐，甚至不知道规则，那么我此时做的事情必然是有欠缺，于是选择A
10. D 考查形容词，修饰我的状态，那么我能把球投进自己的篮筐，显然我这时是混乱了，于是选择D。confused的确切含义是“混乱”，至于到遇到某事大脑一片空白，不知道如何处理的状态。
11.【答案】B
【解析】考查副词，修饰后一句“我不是唯一的新人”，选择B。
12.【答案】A
【解析】考查动词，该动词与介词on构成词组修饰后句“学习打球”。
13.【答案】D
【解析】考查动词，修饰后句“just yet”（恰好现在），那么我不满现状而加倍努力训练，现在又说恰好现在的状态我不对自己太过苛责，那么首先可排除“支持”，无关选项；而因为我在发奋努力训练，现在“想要”或者“支持”的东西自然是要严格要求的，那么排除A、B，最终选择D，不对自己恰在此时知道的东西过多苛责。
14. C考查名词，前文叙述我连规则都不知道，于是发奋练球的直接结果就是知道了规则并且已经知道了动作。
15. B 考查名词，与形容词competitive激动，此词组winning over(争取到)相关联，那么首先可排除D，竞争与价值不能匹配；而我的竞争绝不是一个“角色”那么简单吗，也不仅存在于“思想”，于是选择B
16.【答案】A
【解析】考查名词，破折号的作用是解释说明，那么知道尊重我的努力的朋友一定是看到我的成长的朋友，也即我在这个过程中认识的朋友，于是选择A。
B 考查形容词，个根据前文叙述，我是一个由没自信到拥有自信的人，那么我的自信是不断增加的，于是选择B
D 考查动词，根据后半句的修饰，我在教室的后面坐着是在“隐藏”自己
D 考查介词，破折号强调解释说明，后文说明我没有百分百把握自己知道正确答案，但是我
都会去举手，这表示一种将要做的动作，于是选择D。
20.【答案】C
【解析】考查形容词，even的出现提示让步关系可以知道，我举手甚至再不百分百确定答案的时候，于是选择C。
