When I was in my fourth year of teaching,I was also(and am still)a high school track and field coach(田径教练). One year,I had a student,John,who entered my class when he was a junior. John changed to our school from Greece,and seemed to be interested in sports,so I encouraged him to join our track team. I explained to him that even though he had never taken part in it before,I did believe that he could do well in any event,and that I would be willing to coach him in whichever ones interested him. He accepted the offer,and began to work hard at every practice.
About a month later,I had found out from other sources that John was a first-class tennis player,winning various junior awards in his home country. I went to him asking,“John,I really appreciate that you came out for the track team,but why didn’t you play tennis instead?It seems that would interest you a lot more,since you’re so good at it.”John answered,“Well,I like tennis,but you told me that you believed in me,and that you thought I could do well in track,so I wanted to try it for that reason.”
From then on,I often remember my student’s reply. I told it to a friend and she suggested I write it down to share somewhere with more teachers. No matter how critical(挑别的)students can be of themselves,I’ve found that a simple “I trust that you can do it!”can go a long way!
24. According to Paragraph 1,what did the author seem to think more about?
A. John’s PE marks. B. John’s self-confidence.
C. John’s interest in sports. D. John’s state of health.
25.Why did John take part in the track team?
A. He had been an excellent runner. B. He was encouraged by his teacher.
C. He liked running more than tennis. D. He had no tennis coach to train him.
26. What’s the purpose of this passage?
A. To build a close teacher-student relationship.
B. To introduce a new way of sports training.
C. To explain the value of sports.
D. To show the importance of encouragement.
27. Who is the passage mainly written for?
A. Teachers. B. Parents. C. Students. D. Players.
C
As a child, there was nothing I liked better than Sunday afternoons at my grandfather’s farm in western Pennsylvania. Surrounded by miles of winding stone walls, the house and field provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me.
Since my first visit to the farm, I had wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stone walls surrounding the houses. My parents would never agree because the walls were so old that some stones were loose and falling. However, my idea to climb across those walls grew so strong that finally I had all my courage to enter the living room, where the adults had gathered after Sunday dinner.
“I want to climb the stone walls.” I said. “Heavens, no! You’ll hurt yourself!” The response was just as I’d expected. But before I left the room, I was stopped by my grandfather’s loud voice. “Now hold on just a minute.”I heard him say. “Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to learn to do things for himself.”
“Go,” he said to me, “and come and see me when you get back. ”For the next two and a half hours I climbed those old walls—and had the time of my life. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my adventures. I’ll never forget what he said. “Fred,” he said, smiling, “you made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember, there’s only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are.”
Many years have passed since then, and today I host the television program Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, seen by millions of children throughout America. There have been changes over the years, but one thing remains the same: my message to children at the end of almost every visit. “There’s only one person in this whole world like you,” the kids will hear me say, “and people can like you exactly as you are.”
28. Why did the writer enjoy his visits to the farm
A. There were old stone houses. B. He could experience new fun there.
C. He missed his grandfather. D. He was allowed to climb the stone walls.
29. Which of the following statements is true
A. The writer didn’t expect his parents’ disagreement with his climbing the walls.
B. The writer didn’t know the possible danger of the stone walls.
C. The writer’s grandfather backed him up to follow his own heart.
D. The writer became a TV program host due to his grandfather’s influence.
30. Which word can be used to describe the grandfather
A. Adventurous. B. Open-minded. C. Tricky. D. Stubborn.
31. Which is probably the best title for the text
A. Unforgettable Childhood. B. Do Whatever You Like.
C. Just Be Yourself. D. Like grandfather, like grandson.
D
When put to the test, bees have proved over and over again that they’ve got a lot more to offer than making honey and now some scientists say there’s proof that they also like to play. A study recently published in Animal Behavior suggests that bumblebees, when given the chance, like to fool around with toys.
Researchers from Queen Mary University of London conducted an experiment in which they set up a container that allowed bees to travel from their nest to a feeding area. But along the way, the bees could choose to pass through a separate section with several small wooden balls. Over 18 days, the scientists watched as the bees “went out of their way to roll wooden balls repeatedly, though there seems to be no apparent cause to drive them to do so.”
The finding suggests that like humans, insects also interact with inanimate (无生命的) objects as a form of play. Also similar to people, younger bees seemed to be more playful than adult bees. “Previous research has shown that there are lots of animals who play just for the purpose of enjoyment, but most examples come from young mammals and birds. This study provides a strong indication that insect minds are far more advanced than we might imagine,” Lars Chittka, who led the study, said.
The study’s first author, Samadi Galpayage, who is a PhD student at Queen Mary University, added that it is the evidence that insects may be able to experience feelings. “They can actually experience some kind of positive emotional states, even if basic, like other larger fluffy (覆有绒毛的) animals do. This sort of finding has led to our understanding of insects and will, hopefully, encourage us to respect and protect life on earth ever more,” she said in the statement.
32. What is paragraph 2 mainly about
A. The conclusion of the research.
B. The assumption(假设)about the bees.
C. The description of the experiment.
D. The reasons for conducting the experiment.
33. What does the underlined word “apparent” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Clear. B. Preventable. C. Horrible. D. Different.
34. What can we learn from the study
A. Birds like to fool around with toys.
B. Toys are more enjoyable to adult bees.
C. Humans seldom interact with lifeless objects for fun.
D. Insect minds are better developed than we thought.
35. Which statement will Samadi Galpayage agree to
A. Insects experience the same emotions as humans do.
B. Fluffy animals fail to show positive emotional states.
C. More work is needed to protect endangered life on earth.
D. The finding improves our understanding of living things.

Tuatara (鳄蜥) can only be found on the islands off the coast of New Zealand. And they are one of the 56 (old) animals in the world. They were on the earth 220 million years ago. At that time, there were a lot of tuatara all over the world, but in most 57 (place) they died out about one million years ago because other stronger animals developed and became tuatara killers. At 58 same time, New Zealand became separated from the rest of the world, so tuatara have continued to live in New Zealand.
Tuatara are cold blooded animals so they feel cold 59 you touch them. They can grow up 60 24 centimeters in length (长度) and weigh more than 1 kilogram. Tuatara make 61 (they) homes in holes in the ground. They often share their holes with birds, which is not a good idea for the birds because tuatara are fond of 62 (eat) eggs and baby birds. In fact, they will eat anything they can catch, but 63 (usual) they eat insects (昆虫).
The number of tuatara 64 (drop) since people and other animals came to New Zealand one thousand years ago. Today, there aren't many tuatara left. In New Zealand, programs have been set up 65 (protect) them.
