As I walked into the primary school, I looked down at my new black shoes. I stood at Mrs. Blackstone’s door. Before I tried the great escape, the door opened. “We’ve been waiting for you!” Mrs. Blackstone, my new fifth grade teacher, said loudly. With a smile my mom walked away and I was left taking center stage in front of a group of students.
Over the next few days, Mrs. Blackstone made it her job to find me a new best friend. During history lessons, when I didn’t want to speak in front of the class, she’d not only call on me but have me stand up to address my classmates.
One spring afternoon, Mrs. Blackstone asked me to stay after class. “I’d like to speak with you, Amanda.” My mind raced. Had I got a bad grade Had I hurt anyone’s feelings “Are you enjoying your new school ” She sat comfortably behind her desk. “I want to tell you something, between you and me, not to be shared with anyone else.” She continued, “I see something special in you. The way you communicate with others , and the kindness you show-I think you have great potential (潜力) to be something important.” I listened carefully to every word. “I have been a teacher for over twenty-five years; I can see it. But you must believe in yourself. That’s very important. Remember that and you’ll go far,” she said.
Her voice was music to my ears that day. I walked out of her office, not staring at my shoes, but looking straight ahead with my head high. My teacher saw something special in me! Years later, her words still remain inside of me.

Who needs friends According to most psychologists (心理学家) we all do, especially nowadays when so many other aspects (方面) of modern life are changing. It seems that having friends keeps us both healthy and happy.
The number of TV series about groups of friends shows just how important friendship is to us. Psychologist Dorothy Rowe says that many of us now turn to our friends, instead of our families, for advice, comfort and security. One woman named Rebecca she interviewed even told her that if she had got to choose between her husband and her friend, she would choose her friend.
Since our friends mean so much to us, it is not surprising that the happiest marriages are also friendships. “Once the romantic stage of a relationship has passed, it is friendship that holds people together,” says Rowe. If the couple do not make some change, they will either get tired of each other and break up or stay together and seek friendship with others.
But is friendship equally important to women and men According to author Rhonda Pritchard, women are more likely than men to have close friends. “ You tell a friend things that you’d never tell a partner”,says one woman she interviewed. For men, friendship is usually based on doing things together rather than the private conversations that are typical of women friend. Men share time and activities like building a fence or a business, running, riding a bike, fishing or watching football, but they don’t often share their feelings.
Although many women find their relationships with a husband or boyfriend is not enough, many men say that their partner is their best friend. Even women who are very happily married are likely to become very unhappy without a close friend and can even find the breakup of a close friend as painful as the end of a marriage.
Lasting friendships can provide a lot of the same support that families provided in the past, but the perfect situation is to have your family there for as well. Friendships and family relationships can both change, but a friend will not consider you when making really important decisions in the same way that a family member will.
28. What did Rebecca think about friendship
A. Families are reliable forever. B. Her friend means more to her than her husband
C. One needn’t have too many friends. D. Friends are as important as families.
29. Some couples look for friends outside their relationships because .
A. they are encouraged by their partners.
B. they are not fairly treated by their partners
C. they don’t get what they need from their partners.
D. they think their friends are more romantic.
30. What is the main different between men’s and women’s friendships
A. Women often do things together.
B. Women often talk about business with friends.
C. Men seldom talk about their feelings.
D. Men often talk to their friends about work and family.
31. When a friendship ends, some women may .
A. feel as upset as when a marriage ends. B. share feelings with their partners.
C. treat their partners as friends. D. turn to their husband for comfort.
D
Sure, it's good to get along well with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.
And yes, it's good to get along well with your teacher because, in general, it's smart to learn how to get along well with the different types of people you'll meet throughout your life.
In fact, kids who get along well with their teachers not only learn more, but they're more comfortable with asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier for them to understand new materials and makes them do their best on tests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher, he or she can be someone to turn to with problems, such as problems with learning or school issues (问题).
Here is a question:What if you don't get along with your teachers In fact, teachers want to get along well with you and enjoy seeing you learn. But teachers and students sometimes have personality clashes (个性冲突), which can happen between any two people. If you show your teacher that you want to make the situation better, he or she will probably do everything possible to make that happen. By dealing with a problem like this, you learn something about how to get along with people who are different from you.
However if a certain teacher isn't your favorite, you can still have a successful relationship with him or her especially ________. Here are some of those responsibilities (责任):
Attend class ready to learn.
Be prepared for class with the right stationery, books, and completed assignments (作业).
Listen when your teacher is talking.
Do your best, whether it's a classroom assignment, homework, or a test.
32.According to the passage, getting along well with your teachers will make you ________.
A.have no problems with study
B.get a better seat in the classroom
C.get the best scores in the exams
D.have more pleasant time in the classroom
33.The underlined word “that” in the fourth paragraph, refers to “________”.
A.the happy time you have in the classroom
B.getting along very well with classmates
C.a better relationship between you and your teacher
D.the disappearance of personality differences
34.What does the passage mainly talk about
A.The importance of friendship in schools.
B.The importance of a good relationship with your teachers.
C.Studying skills for students.
D.Useful skills to get along well with your teachers.
35. Which of the following can be filled in the blank
A.if you fulfill (履行) your basic responsibilities as a student
B.if you are thought of as a good student
C.if you know some basic social skills
七选五
The hardest language
(2013·海南压轴卷)People often ask which is the most difficult language to learn,and it is not easy to answer because there are many factors to take into consideration. Firstly,in a first language the differences are unimportant as people learn their mother tongue naturally.__36__
A native speaker of Spanish,for example,will find Portuguese much easier to learn than a native speaker of Chinese,because Portuguese is very similar to Spanish,while Chinese is very different.__37__ The greater the differences between the second language and our first,the harder it will be for most people to learn.
__38__ Teachers and the circumstances in which the language is learned also play an important role,as well as each learner's motivation for learning. If people learn a language because they need to use it professionally,they often learn it faster than people studying a language that has no direct use in their day to day life.
Apparently,British diplomats and other embassy staff have found that the second hardest language is Japanese,which will probably come as no surprise to many,but the language that they have found to be the most problematic is Hungarian,which has 35 forms of a noun according to whether it is subject,object,etc.
__39__ In the case of Hungarian for British learners,it is not a question of the writing system,which uses a similar alphabet,but the grammatical complexity,though native speakers of related languages may find it easier,while struggling with languages that the British find relatively easy.
No language is easy to learn well,though languages which are related to our first language are easier. Learning a completely different writing system is a huge challenge,but that does not necessarily make a language more difficult than another.__40__
A.In this case,first language can affect learning a second language.
B.Therefore,it is difficult to gain a good knowledge of every language.
C.Some people seem to learn languages readily,while others find it very difficult.
D.This does not mean that Hungarian is the hardest language to learn for everyone.
E.Individuals from different cultures will find different languages more difficult.
F.It is impossible to say that there is one language that is the most difficult language in the world.
G.So the question of how hard a language is to learn is only relevant when learning a second language.

With a smile my mom walked away and I was left taking center stage in front of a group of students.
Over the next few days, Mrs. Blackstone made it her job to find me a new best friend. During history lessons, when I didn’t want to speak in front of the class, she’d not only call on me but have me stand up to address my classmates.
One spring afternoon, Mrs. Blackstone asked me to stay after class. “I’d like to speak with you, Amanda.” My mind raced. Had I got a bad grade Had I hurt anyone’s feelings “Are you enjoying your new school ” She sat comfortably behind her desk. “I want to tell you something, between you and me, not to be shared with anyone else.” She continued, “I see something special in you. The way you communicate with others , and the kindness you show-I think you have great potential (潜力) to be something important.” I listened carefully to every word. “I have been a teacher for over twenty-five years; I can see it. But you must believe in yourself. That’s very important. Remember that and you’ll go far,” she said.
Her voice was music to my ears that day. I walked out of her office, not staring at my shoes, but looking straight ahead with my head high. My teacher saw something special in me! Years later, her words still remain inside of me.

Who needs friends According to most psychologists (心理学家) we all do, especially nowadays when so many other aspects (方面) of modern life are changing. It seems that having friends keeps us both healthy and happy.
The number of TV series about groups of friends shows just how important friendship is to us. Psychologist Dorothy Rowe says that many of us now turn to our friends, instead of our families, for advice, comfort and security. One woman named Rebecca she interviewed even told her that if she had got to choose between her husband and her friend, she would choose her friend.
Since our friends mean so much to us, it is not surprising that the happiest marriages are also friendships. “Once the romantic stage of a relationship has passed, it is friendship that holds people together,” says Rowe. If the couple do not make some change, they will either get tired of each other and break up or stay together and seek friendship with others.
But is friendship equally important to women and men According to author Rhonda Pritchard, women are more likely than men to have close friends. “ You tell a friend things that you’d never tell a partner”,says one woman she interviewed. For men, friendship is usually based on doing things together rather than the private conversations that are typical of women friend. Men share time and activities like building a fence or a business, running, riding a bike, fishing or watching football, but they don’t often share their feelings.
Although many women find their relationships with a husband or boyfriend is not enough, many men say that their partner is their best friend. Even women who are very happily married are likely to become very unhappy without a close friend and can even find the breakup of a close friend as painful as the end of a marriage.
Lasting friendships can provide a lot of the same support that families provided in the past, but the perfect situation is to have your family there for as well. Friendships and family relationships can both change, but a friend will not consider you when making really important decisions in the same way that a family member will.
28. What did Rebecca think about friendship
A. Families are reliable forever. B. Her friend means more to her than her husband
C. One needn’t have too many friends. D. Friends are as important as families.
【答案】:本题选B

【答案】:本题选C
【解析】:推理判断题。从Once the romantic stage of a relationship has passed, it is friendship that holds people togethe. If the couple do not make some change, they will either get tired of each other and break up or stay together and seek friendship with othersr可知如果他们不做出改变来维护这种关系,那么就有可能在婚姻上出现问题。

Sure, it's good to get along well with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.
And yes, it's good to get along well with your teacher because, in general, it's smart to learn how to get along well with the different types of people you'll meet throughout your life.
In fact, kids who get along well with their teachers not only learn more, but they're more comfortable with asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier for them to understand new materials and makes them do their best on tests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher, he or she can be someone to turn to with problems, such as problems with learning or school issues (问题).
Here is a question:What if you don't get along with your teachers In fact, teachers want to get along well with you and enjoy seeing you learn. But teachers and students sometimes have personality clashes (个性冲突), which can happen between any two people. If you show your teacher that you want to make the situation better, he or she will probably do everything possible to make that happen. By dealing with a problem like this, you learn something about how to get along with people who are different from you.
However if a certain teacher isn't your favorite, you can still have a successful relationship with him or her especially ________. Here are some of those responsibilities (责任):
Attend class ready to learn.
Be prepared for class with the right stationery, books, and completed assignments (作业).
Listen when your teacher is talking.
Do your best, whether it's a classroom assignment, homework, or a test.

34.What does the passage mainly talk about
A.The importance of friendship in schools.
B.The importance of a good relationship with your teachers.
C.Studying skills for students.

【答案】:本题选B

The hardest language
(2013·海南压轴卷)People often ask which is the most difficult language to learn,and it is not easy to answer because there are many factors to take into consideration. Firstly,in a first language the differences are unimportant as people learn their mother tongue naturally.__36__
A native speaker of Spanish,for example,will find Portuguese much easier to learn than a native speaker of Chinese,because Portuguese is very similar to Spanish,while Chinese is very different.__37__ The greater the differences between the second language and our first,the harder it will be for most people to learn.
__38__ Teachers and the circumstances in which the language is learned also play an important role,as well as each learner's motivation for learning. If people learn a language because they need to use it professionally,they often learn it faster than people studying a language that has no direct use in their day to day life.
Apparently,British diplomats and other embassy staff have found that the second hardest language is Japanese,which will probably come as no surprise to many,but the language that they have found to be the most problematic is Hungarian,which has 35 forms of a noun according to whether it is subject,object,etc.
__39__ In the case of Hungarian for British learners,it is not a question of the writing system,which uses a similar alphabet,but the grammatical complexity,though native speakers of related languages may find it easier,while struggling with languages that the British find relatively easy.
No language is easy to learn well,though languages which are related to our first language are easier. Learning a completely different writing system is a huge challenge,but that does not necessarily make a language more difficult than another.__40__
A.In this case,first language can affect learning a second language.
B.Therefore,it is difficult to gain a good knowledge of every language.
C.Some people seem to learn languages readily,while others find it very difficult.
D.This does not mean that Hungarian is the hardest language to learn for everyone.
E.Individuals from different cultures will find different languages more difficult.
F.It is impossible to say that there is one language that is the most difficult language in the world.
G.So the question of how hard a language is to learn is only relevant when learning a second language.

【解析】:上文native speakers of related languages may find it easier,while struggling with languages that the British find relatively easy 说明不同文化背景下学语言有不同。
40【答案】:F
【解析】:上文Learning a completely different writing system is a huge challenge,but that does not necessarily make a language more difficult than another.和此句中意思相同。
