A
Societies all o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ver the world name places in similar ways.Quite often there is no official naming ceremony but places tend to be called names as points of reference by people.Then an organized body steps in and gives the place a name.Frequently it happens that a place has two names：One is named by the people and the other by the government.As in many areas，old habits die_hard，and the place continues to be called by its unofficial name long after the meaning is lost.
Many roads and ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) places in Singapore(新加坡) are named in order that the pioneers will be remembered by future generations.Thus we have names such as Stamford Road and Raffles Place.This is in keeping with traditions in many countries—in both the West and the East.
Another way of naming ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )places is naming them after other places.Perhaps they were named to promote friendships between the two places or it could be that the people who used to live there were originally from the places that the roads were named after.The mystery is clearer when we see some of the roads named in former British bases.If you step into Selector Airbase you will see Piccadilly Circus obviously named by some homesick Royal Air Force personnel.
Some places were name ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d after the activities that used to go on at those places.Bras Basah Road is an interesting example.“Bras Basah” means “wet rice” in Malay(马来语)．Now why would anyone want to name a road “Wet Rice Road”？The reason is simple.During the pioneering days，wet rice was laid out to dry along this road.
A few roads in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Singapore are named by their shapes.There is “Circular Road” for one.Other roads may have part of their names to describe their shapes，like “Paya Lebar Crescent”．This road is called a crescent(月牙) because it begins on the main road，makes a crescent and comes back to join the main road again.
1．We can learn from Paragraph 1 that ________.
A．the government is usually the first to name a place
B．many places tend to have more than one name
C．a ceremony will be held when a place is named
D．people prefer the place names given by the government
2．What does the underl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ined phrase “die hard” in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A．Change suddenly.
B．Change significantly.
C．Disappear mysteriously.
D．Disappear very slowly.
3．Which of the following places is named after a person 21世纪教育网版权所有
A．Raffles Place.
B．Selector Airbase.
C．Piccadilly Circus.
D．Paya Lebar Crescent.
4．Bras Basah Road is named ________.
A．after a person B．after a place
C．after an activity D．by its shape
B
Like people of other e ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )thnicity，the Chinese immigrated to the United States for better lives.Before 1900，their work included farming，mining and building railroads.Men sent money home to their families in China.21·cn·jy·com
But American ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )laborers resented the Chinese because the latter were willing to work for cheap wages.Americans accused the Chinese of monopolizing jobs.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
Stiff immigration laws ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) were passed.Many Chinese immigrants were forced to prove they had a husband or father who was a U．S.citizen or be deported.21教育名师原创作品
From 1910—1940，Ch ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )inese immigrants were detained (拘留) and questioned at Angel Island immigration station in San Francisco Bay.U.S.officials hoped to deport as many as possible by asking obscure questions about Chinese villages and family histories that immigrants would have trouble answering correctly.
Men and women were ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )housed separately.Detainees spent much of their time in the barracks，languishing (受苦) between interrogations (审问)．
The immigrants express ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ed their fears and frustrations through messages and poems written or carved into barrack walls.Some poems are still visible at the museum today.
Immigrants were det ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ained weeks，months，sometimes even years.Word got back to China about the prolonged questioning，so people would try to mentally prepare before even crossing the Pacific Ocean.【版权所有：21教育】
A 1940 fire des ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )troyed the Angel Island administration building，so the U．S.government abandoned the immigration station.The so called “Chinese Exclusion Acts” eventually were repealed (withdrew)．Over the years，Chinese have settled in every U．S. city.
Many years hav ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e passed.But many Chinese still recall the hardships of detention.
At Angel Island，a mus ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eum has been established in the old barracks，re creating one of the living areas for Chinese detainees.2·1·c·n·j·y
5．Which is NOT the reaction of American laborers to the Chinese 21*cnjy*com
A．American laborers ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )resented the Chinese because the latter were willing to work for cheap wages.
B．Americans accused the Chinese of controlling jobs.
C．Americans passed stiff immigration laws.
D．Americans put many Chinese into prison.
6.What is the meaning of the word “deported” in the third paragraph
A．Legally force foreigners/criminals to leave.
B．Go away.
C．Stay at a certain place.
D．Throw...into prison.
7．According to the passage，which statement is WRONG
A．Many Chinese ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )immigrants were forced to prove they had a husband or father who was a U．S. citizen，otherwise they were to be departed.
B．Detainees spent muc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )h of their time in the barracks，suffering a lot between interrogations.
C．We can see ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )some poems expressing Chinese fears and frustrations at the museum today.
D．Today many Chinese have forgotten the hardships of detention.
8．From the passage，we can infer that ________.
A．a lot of Chines ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e people opposed “Chinese Exclusion Acts”，so the U．S. government abandoned it
B．at Angel Isla ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nd，a museum has been established in the old barracks in memory of history
C．the Chinese who ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) passed the Angel Island must have gone through hardships and frustrations

Few of us ha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ven’t read Cinderella，the story of a young woman living in poverty who meets the prince of her dreams.Some might not want to admit it，but there is a hidden Cinderella in everyone’s heart—we all wish we could achieve recognition or success after a period of obscurity (默默无闻)or neglect.21世纪教育网版权所有
Mary Santiago has t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hat secret dream，too.Her story is featured in Another Cinderella Story，a film set in a US high school.21·cn·jy·com
Mary is shy but lov ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )es to pared with other girls，she is invisible.However，her world changes completely when a famous teenage pop singer，Joey Parker，appears.
Joey is everythin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )g the rest of the boys in her class are not—kind，handsome and desirable.Mary and Joey’s paths cross at a ball.They meet and fall in love with each other.But when Mary has to rush back home，she leaves behind her MP3 player，which becomes the only clue Joey has to find the girl of his dreams.Of course，there is a wicked (邪恶的)stepmother，who turns out to be Dominique Blatt and she takes in Mary after her dancer mother dies.Dominique treats Mary like a maid and does everything she can to make sure Mary doesn’t get into the top dance school.Her two daughters are equally determined to stop Joey falling for Mary，even if that means embarrassing her.www.21-cn-jy.com
The story，though it ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )mostly follows Cinderella，does add a few modern day twists to the classic fairy tale.Refreshingly，the film，unlike many high school films，does not focus on looks，although the actors are all beautiful.There is also a lot less materialism in Another Cinderella Story than in many similar movies. 21*cnjy*com
“The movie takes t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he Cinderella fairytale as its jumping off point，” writes movie critic Amber Wilkinson.“The focus is firmly on following your dream.”

2．In the movie，Mary Santiago is the main character who ________.
A．is brave in expressing her love
B．is attended badly by the stepmother

A．Joey is just like other boys in Mary’s class.
B．Mary’s mother influences her a lot in singing.
C．Not many people have a dream to be realized.
D．The MP3 player helps Joey in finding Mary.
4．The passage is mainly ________.

Rae Armantrout，w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ho has been a poetry professor at the University of California San Diego(UCSD) for two decades，has won the 2010 Pulitzer Prize in the poetry category for her most recent book Versed. 21*cnjy*com
“I’m delighted and ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )amazed at how much media recognition that the Pulitzer brings，as compared to even the National Book Critics Award，which I was also surprised and delighted to win，” said Armantrout.
“For a long time，my ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )writing has been just below the media radar，and to have this kind of attention，suddenly，with my 10th book，is really surprising.”
Armantrout，a na ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tive Californian，received her Bachelor’s degree at UC Berkeley，where she studied with noted poet Denise Levertov，and her master’s in creative writing from San Francisco State University.She is a founding member of Language Poets，a group in American poetry that analyzes the way language is used and raises questions to make the reader think.
In March，she won the National Book Critics Award for Versed.21教育网
“This book has ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )gotten more attention，” Armantrout said，“but I don’t feel as if it’s better.”
The first half of Vers ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ed focuses on the dark forces taking hold of the United States as it fought the war against Iraq.The second half looks at the dark forces casting a shadow over her own life after Armantrout was diagnosed with cancer in 2006.
Armantrout was shocke ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d to learn she had won the Pulitzer but many of her colleagues were not.“Rae Armantrout is a unique voice in American poetry，” said Seth Lerer，head of Arts and Humanities at UCSD.
Versed，publi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )shed by the Wesleyan University Press，did appear in a larger printing than her earlier works，which is about 2,700 copies.The new edition is scheduled to appear in May.
36．According to Rae Armantrout，________.
A．her 10th book is much better
B．her winning the Pulitzer is unexpected
C．the media is surprised at her works
D．she likes being recognized by her readers
37．Which of the following is TRUE of Rae Armantrout 21cnjy.com
A．She published a poetry textbook.
B．She used to teach Denise Levertov.
C．She started a poets’ group with others.

Today I’ll be talking ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) about the invention of the camera and photography.The camera is often thought to be a modern invention，but as early as 1727，a German physicist discovered that light darkens silver salt.Used as a camera，a big box was set up，and a small hole was cut in one side to let the light in；he made temporary pictures on the salt.Silver salt is still the base of the photographic film today.Then a French scientist made the first permanent picture by using a special piece of metal which was covered with silver salt.A photograph he made in 1826 still exists.
The painter ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )De Gear improved the process by covering the metal also with placing the common salt which we can eat.That was in 1839，the official date of the beginning of photography.But the problem was the printing of the photographs.And it wasn’t until other scientists developed the kind of photographic paper we now use that good prints were possible and photography became truly
modern.In th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e 1870’s，Matthew Bradey was able to take his famous pictures in American Civil War.In the 20’s of this century，Georges Mann of the United States simplified film developing，and Dr.Edward Lane invented the so called “Instant Camera”，which uses self developing film.If we say photography came into existence in 1839，it follows that it took more than 100 years for the camera to reach its present condition of technical refinement(密度)．
44．What discovery was the basis of photography
A．Light darkens silver salt.
B．Light darkens natural salt.
C．Light darkens silver.
D．Light darkens self developing film.
45．How was the first permanent picture made
A．By making use of special paper.
B．By adding common salt to silver salt.
C．By giving a slight colour to the silver salt.
D．By using a special piece of metal.
46．Which does the aut ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hor regard as the official date of the beginning of photography
A．1727 B．1826
C．1839 D．1870
47．According to the author，why is Matthew Bradey remembered today
A．He was a soldier.
B．He took war photographs.
C．He painted portraits.
D．He designed a portable camera.

When you practi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ce reading with passages shorter than book length，do not try to take in each word separately，one after the other.It is much more difficult to grasp the broad theme of the passage this way，and you will also get the stuck on individual words which may not be absolutely essential to a general understanding of the passage.It is a good idea to skim through the passage very quickly first to get the general idea of each paragraph.Titles，paragraph headings and emphasized word can be a great help in getting this skeleton outline of the passage.It is surprising how many people do not read titles，introductions or paragraph headings.Can you，without looking back，remember the title of this passage and the heading of this paragraph
Most paragraphs of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )a passage or chapter have a “topic sentence” which expresses the central idea.The remaining sentences expand or support that idea.It has been estimated that between 60% and 90% of all expositive(说明的) paragraphs in English have the topic sentence first.Always pay special attention to the first sentence of a paragraph；it is most likely to give you the main idea.
Sometimes，th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ough，the first sentence in the paragraph does not have the feel of “main idea” sentence.It does not seem to give us enough new information to justify a paragraph.The next most likely place to look for the topic sentence is the last sentence of the paragraph.
Remember that ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the opening and closing paragraphs of a passage or chapter are particularly important.The opening paragraph suggests the general direction and content of the piece，while the closing paragraph often summarizes the very essence (精髓)．
48．It is a good ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) idea to skim through a passage quickly first ________.
A．at about 350 w．p.m.(words per minute)
B．to get the general idea of each paragraph
C．so that you can take in each word separately
D．to make sure you get to the end at least once
49．The topic sentence of an expository paragraph in English ________.
A．usually comes in the middle
B．is most likely to be found at the end
C．is most often at the beginning
D．is usually left out in expository writing
50．Most exposito ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ry paragraphs in English have a clearly defined topic sentence.In such paragraphs the topic sentence comes first ________.
A．in about 40% of cases
B．in about 80% of cases
C．in about 20% of cases
D．very rarely
51．Sometimes we know ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the first sentence is not the topic sentence because ________.
A．it does not seem to give us enough new information
B．it is not long enough
C．it does not come at the beginning
D．it does not make complete sentence

It’s such a happy ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )looking library，painted yellow，decorated with palm tree stickers and sheltered from the Florida sun by its own roof.About the size of a microwave oven，it’s pedestrian friendly，too，waiting for book lovers next to a sidewalk in Palm Beach Country Estates，along the northern boundary of Palm Beach Gardens.www-2-1-cnjy-com
It’s a library built with love.
A year ago，sho ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rtly after Janey Henriksen saw a Brian Williams report about the Little Free Library organization，a Wisconsin based nonprofit that aims to promote literacy and build a sense of community in a neighborhood by making books freely available，she announced to her family of four，“That’s what we’re going to do for our spring break！”
Son Austin，now a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )10th grader，didn’t see the point of building a library that resembles a mailbox.But Janey insisted，and husband Peter unwillingly got to work.The 51 year old owner of a ship supply company modified a small wooden house that he’d built years earlier for daughter Abbie’s toy horses，and made a door of glass.
After adding the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )library’s final touches(装点)，the family hung a signboard on the front，instructing users to “take a book，return a book，”and making the Henriksen library，now one of several hundred like it nationwide and among more than 2,500 in the world，the only Little Free Library in Palm Beach County.
They stocked it with ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) 20 or so books they’d already read，a mix of science fiction，reference titles，novels and kids’ favorites.“I told them，keep in mind that you might not see it again，” said Janey，a stay at home mom.
Since then，the co ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )llection keeps replenishing(补充) itself，thanks to ongoing donations from borrowers.The library now gets an average of five visits a day.
The project’s best pa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )yoff，says Peter，are the thank you notes left behind.“We had no idea in the beginning that it would be so popular.”
52．In what way is the library “pedestrian friendly”？
A．It owns a yellow roof.
B．It stands near a sidewalk.
C．It protects book lovers from the sun.
D．It uses palm tree stickers as decorations.
53．Janey got the idea to build a library from________.
A．a visit to Brian Williams
B．a spring break with her family
C．a book sent by one of her neighbors
D．a report on a Wisconsin based organization
54．The library was built________.
A．by a ship supply company
B．on the basis of toy horses
C．like a mailbox
D．with glass
55．What can we infer about the signboard
A．It was made by a user of the library.
B．It marked a final touch to the library.
C．It aimed at making the library last long.
D．It indicated the library was a family property.

A
No poem should e ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ver be discussed or “analyzed”，until it has been read aloud by someone，teacher or student.Better still，perhaps，is the practice of reading it twice，once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end，so_the_sound_of_the_poem_is_the_last_thing_one_hears_of_it. 21*cnjy*com
All discussions of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) poetry are，in fact，preparations for reading it aloud，and the reading of the poem is finally，the most telling “interpretation” of it，suggesting tone，rhythm，and meaning all at once.Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice，on records or on film，is obviously a special reward.But even those aids to teaching can not replace the student and teacher reading it or，best of all，reciting it.【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
I have come to thi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nk，in fact，that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than “analyzing” it，if there isn’t time for both.I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry.Poetry is “a criticism of life” “a heightening of life”．It also deserves a place in the teaching of language and literature more central than it presently occupies.
I am not saying t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hat every English teacher must teach poetry.Those who don’t like it should not be forced to put that dislike on anyone else.But those，who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature，about its sound as well as its sense，and they must make_room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it.
1．According to the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) passage，to have a better understanding of a poem，the best way is________.
A．to discuss it with others
B．to analyze it by oneself
C．to hear it read out
D．to practice reading it aloud
2．The best explan ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ation for the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 should be________.
A．we should end the analyzing of the poem by reading it aloud21世纪教育网版权所有
B．students should read the poem at the end of poem class【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
C．we feel th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e original meaning of the author by hearing the poem read aloud after discussion
D．sometimes the sound of the poem represents the meaning of it21·世纪*教育网
3．What does the last sentence in the third paragraph imply (暗示) 【出处：21教育名师】
A．The teaching of poetry should have been much more stressed.【版权所有：21教育】
B．The teachin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )g of poetry is more important than the teaching of any other subject.
C．One cannot enjoy life fully without an understanding of poetry.www-2-1-cnjy-com
D．Poetry is the foundation of all languages and literature courses.21教育名师原创作品
4．The underlined ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) phrase “make room” in the last paragraph can be best replaced by “________”．21*cnjy*com

In the fall of 19 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )85，I was a bright eyed girl heading off to Howard University，aiming at a legal career and dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere.Twenty one years later I am still a bright eyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell.【出处：21教育名师】
My grandma，an ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) amazing woman，graduated from college at the age of 65.She was the first in our family to reach that goal.But one year after I started college，she developed cancer.I made the choice to withdraw from college to care for her.It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.【版权所有：21教育】

I’m sure many of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )you have seen Star Wars，Jurassic Park，Multiplicity，or many of the other movies that describe cloning.Most of what you see in these movies is false.What you don’t know is that cloning could be dangerous，to the clone and to our society as a whole.It’s immoral to have a human clone.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
What about identity？H ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )umans are promised the right to their own personalities.What would happen if we ignore those rights by giving them someone else’s genetic identity？True，personality is not fixed in someone’s genes，but the clone would share any physical appearance or genetic fault of the cloned.www-2-1-cnjy-com
Also，there is a l ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )arge power struggle here.Cloning means a degree of power and control over another person’s physical identity and that ignores their rights and their only personalities.The person doing the cloning would have more power than any parent would have.
Cloning would also ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )deal with killing embryos (胚胎)．You might not have known，but Dolly，the sheep that was cloned in 1996，was one of over 200 sheep embryos and hers was the only embryo that survived.The rest died or were thrown away.Imagine if the failure rate was that high when we started to clone humans.More than 200 embryos，the start of 200 human beings，would die for the sake of just one embryo that would have the same DNA as someone else.
Cloning someone， ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )at this present time，would be extremely dangerous to the birth mother and the clone.In studies done on cows,4 out of 12 birth mothers died.There is a very high failure rate，which is showed in the cloning of Dolly.Even if you had a few good embryos，failures have been noticeable in animal tests.【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
So，should we work ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ahead in the world of cloning？I say no.The risks are greater than the benefits.It’s dangerous to the clone and to the birth mother.We would be killing human lives in the process.It would also be a violation (侵害) of the clone’s right to its own genetic identity and personality.21教育名师原创作品

A．Cloning itself gives parents great power over identity.【版权所有：21教育】
B．People’s identity is completely determined by their genes.
C．Government has the right to confirm people’s identities.
D．Cloning may prevent people from possessing their identities.
3．From Paragraph 4 we can infer that________.
A．human cloning is much more difficult than animal cloning
B．Dolly is the most successful one among 200 sheep embryos
C．cloning means running the risk of wasting too much effort
D．numbers of baby animals are likely to be created by cloning
4．Why does the author mention some movies in the first paragraph
A．To introduce the topic of the article.
B．To present his idea about the movies.
C．To state the conclusion first.
