When my frien ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ds went to college in great delight，I restarted my senior high school life.My spirit sank.Surrounded by strange classmates，I felt like I was in a maze and was sorry about myself.There were some complex feelings in my mind.I was frightened，nervous and lonely.
To make matters w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )orse，I recalled my failure again and again，which put more pressure on me than I could bear.As a result，I was always feeling down during the class time.
My teacher found me s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )piritless.One day he asked me to come to his office and told me about his attitude towards life：We might suffer from mistakes，but it’s important to learn lessons from them.All the pains and the embarrassing things we experience are part of the process.So cheer up！At last，he added，“If you are optimistic，things you want may happen to you！”Warmth rushed through my soul.I suddenly found the sun shining again when I stepped out of his office.
With the teacher ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )’s help，I eventually got over my depression.From then on，I no longer bowed my head and began smiling to my classmates.I would put up my hand confidently in class and play with my new friends in my spare time.Meanwhile，I was gradually embraced by my classmates.
Now faced with fierc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e competition，we all study strenuously，and every second counts.Moreover，there is an atmosphere of mutual trust and respect between us.I love my class；I love my classmates!
To be frank，I sti ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ll have a thirst for my dream university，but I’m not afraid of failure because I can profit by it.With parents and teachers’ great expectations，I’m quite certain of my success and I’m sure I can fly high.

It was the first snow ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )of winter—an exciting day for every child but not for most teachers.Up until now，I had been able to dress myself for recess(课间休息)，but today I would need some help.Miss Finlayson，my kindergarten teacher at Princess Elizabeth School near Hamilton，Ontario，had been through first snow days many times in her long career，but I think she may still remember this one.
I managed to get ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )into my woollen snow pants.But I struggled with my jacket because it didn’t fit well.It was a hand me down from my brother，and it made me wonder why I had to wear his ugly clothes.At least my hat and matching scarf were mine，and they were quite pretty.Finally it was time to have Miss Finlayson help me with my boots.In her calm，motherly voice she said，“By the end of winter，you will be able to put on your own boots.” I didn’t realize at the time that this was more a statement of hope than of confidence.
I handed her my bo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ots and stuck out my feet.Like most children，I expected the adult to do all the work.After much wiggling and pushing，she managed to get the first one into place and then，with a sigh，worked the second one on too.
I announced，“T ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hey’re on the wrong feet.” With the grace that only experience can bring，she struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again.Then I said，“These aren’t my boots，you know.” As she pulled the offending boots from my feet，she still managed to look both helpful and interested.Once they were off，I said，“They are my brother’ s boots.My mother makes me wear them，and I hate them！” Somehow，from long years of practice，she managed to act as though I wasn’t an annoying little girl.She pushed and shoved，less gently this time，and the boots were returned to their proper place on my feet.With a great sigh of relief，seeing the end of her struggle with me，she asked，“Now，where are your gloves？”
I looked int ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o her eyes and said，“I didn’t want to lose them，so I put them into the toes of my boots.”
68．According to the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )passage，the little girl got________from her brother.
A．the woollen snow pants and the jacket
B．the jacket and the boots
C．the jacket and the hat
D．the boots and the gloves
69．What made it so ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) hard for the teacher to help the little girl put her boots on
A．The gloves in the toes of the boots.
B．The slowness of the teacher.
C．The wrong size of the boots.
D．The unwillingness of the girl.
70．It can be i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nferred that before the little girl finally went out to enjoy the first snow of winter，the teacher had to help her put on her boots________.
A．once B．twice
C．three times D．four times
71．Which of the follow ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing sentences from the text best indicates that the teacher is very considerate
A．In her calm，motherl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y voice she said，“By the end of winter...”( Paragraph 2)
B．With the grace ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) that only experience can bring，she struggled to...(Paragraph 4)
C．...she stil ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )l managed to look both helpful and interested.(Paragraph 4)

In a win at all cost ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s world，we have accepted the so called “gamesmanship(比赛策略)”．It is not unusual for players to try their best to win.But when it comes to golf，it is a different story—honesty is a symbol of honor in the game.
It’s the reaso ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n why Zach Nash，a 14 year old who won a junior tournament this summer in Wisconsin，the US，returned his medal.Nash carried an extra club(高尔夫球杆) in his golf bag during the competition.It belonged to a friend and Zach forgot it was there as he played.A player noticed something was wrong.“Count your golf clubs，”he told the teenager.
Fifteen—one more than allowed.Zach’s eyes filled with tears.
The error had no effec ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t on Zach’s final score—he never used the extra club.But even so，the boy packed up his medal and dropped it in the mail.“...this was golf，and rules are rules.I just knew what I had to do，”he said.
Golf isn’t a gam ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e where referees watch closely，unlike football or basketball.In golf tournaments，dozens of competitors are spread across acres of land，so officials cannot hope to see each petitors call penalties(罚球) on themselves.
The tradition can ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )be traced back.Golf became popular as a pastime for the wealthy，who seemed to have strict rules for every occasion.“It was a sport for gentlemen，and gentlemen did not care about winning.They cared about doing the right thing，”said Robert Simon，a golf coach at Hamilton College in New York.
So when one ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )of the game’s early stars，Bobby Jones，was praised for calling a penalty on himself at the 1925 US Open，he replied，“You might as well praise a man for not robbing a bank.”
As for Zach，h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e competed in another tournament and before teeing_off，he counted his clubs four times.
72．Zach Nash ret ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )urned the medal he won in a junior tournament because ________.
A．he was caught cheating by a player
B．he made a mistake counting his final score
C．he decided to follow the rules of golf
D．he used another player’s club by mistake
73．Which of the foll ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )owing statements about golf is TRUE according to the article
A．Golf players usually do whatever it takes to win.
B．Golf referees watch each shot and call penalties.
C．Early golf players didn’t care about the rules.
D．In golf，honor comes before victory.
74．The underlined w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ords “teeing off” in the last paragraph probably mean “________”．
A．getting started B．getting caught
C．leaving D．winning
75．What is the passage mainly about
A．Zach’s medal.
B．The history of golf.
C．Honesty counts in golf.
D．Golf is everybody’s game.

I think there are ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )at least two differences in the way of business between Chinese and American businessmen.First，Chinese tend to have business negotiation in a rather indirect manner，compared to a direct manner of American businessmen.Chinese take time to see whether their future business contacts are really reliable as human beings，for example，by inviting them to a party and communicating with them.In contrast，Americans usually get down to business first.Second，the decision making process of Chinese companies is considered to be very slow and time consuming.This is because most Chinese companies have the bottom up decision making system which involves many people in the decision making，while the American companies usually operate with quick decisions made by the top management.
21．B [本题主要考查从句中连接词的用法。 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )第一空用that引导定语从句，that在从句中作主语，不可省略。第二空用that引导表语从句。]
22．C [try doing sth.尝试着做某事；try to do sth.尽量去做某事，而avoid后应跟v. ing形式。]
23．C [句意为：妈妈要来了，你猜 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )想一下她会给你买什么样的生日礼物？由句子结构可知，插入语应用疑问句形式，故排除A、B两项；该结构应为：疑问词＋do you expect＋陈述语序，故排除D项。]
24．B [句意为：恐怕我不能够在这本书 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )中找到一些有价值的东西。of value相当于valuable；D项应为greatly valuable。“of＋抽象名词”在句中作后置定语。]
25．C [句意为：这里相当暖和，我们还没 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )有必要打开暖气。couldn’t不能，不可能；mustn’t禁止，一定不能；needn’t没必要；wouldn’t不会。needn’t do sth.表示现在没必要做某事。根据句中的关键信息词quite warm和the heating可知选C项。]
26．A [keep on后接动名词表示“一直连续不断地做某事”，故B、C、D三项均可被排除。]
27．C [句意为：他趁 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )没被发现悄悄溜进房间。A、B两项，第一个空的动词形式不对；第二个空由于he与notice之间是被动关系，故用being noticed。]
28．A [句意为：—— ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )我真的认为苹果播放器漂亮、便捷、智能化。——的确是这样的。表示“……的确这样”，用“so＋主语＋谓语”，根据第一句判断，主语是ipod，谓语是is，所以选A。]
29．D [句意为：那真是一个绝妙的晚上， ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )我已经几年没有玩得那么高兴了。when当……时，其前后时态不一致，故被排除；that在此处不合句式要求；It be＋时间段＋before意为“多久以后才……”，也不合句意；It be＋时间段＋since表示“自从……以来多长时间了”。所以正确答案为D。]
30．C [考查with复合结 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )构。句意为：由于有许多难题要解决，这位新上任的总统处境艰难。settle所表示的动作应发生在将来，故用动词不定式作宾语补足语。]
31．A [as a rule通常地， ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )是固定词组；在度量名词前，表示付工资、卖、租等方式时，用the，如paid by the hour (day，month，piece...)，sold by the yard (dozen，ton...)。by weight按重量。 ]
32．C [名词promise后是同位语从句，用that引导；if引导条件状语从句。 ]
33．C [句意为：表达 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )观点的能力和观点本身同等重要。ability后通常跟动词不定式(短语)作后置定语，故排除A、B两项；此处the ability与express是逻辑上的主谓关系，表示主动意义，故排除D项。]
34．A
35．D [句意为：我觉得 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )与其说他是个实干家不如说他是个空谈家，这就是为什么他从来不会完成任何事情的原因。分析句子结构可知，which引导非限制性定语从句，which指代前面的整个句子he’s more of a talker than a doer；在定语从句中，is后面为表语从句，由句意可知which指代的内容是表语从句内容的原因，故用why引导表语从句。]
36．D [分析句子结构可知， ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )not ______是对born的进一步解释。该空与born意义相对，即许多人认为良好的交流能力是天生的而不是后天习得的，故选made。]
37．B [and连接两个并列的宾语从句：许多人认为良好的交流能力是天生的，有些人天生(naturally)就是好的演讲者。]
38．A [结合常识可知，正因为交流很重要(important)，所以它才应该有自己的步调和地位。]
39．A [该空后的Unlike是关键词。该段主要介绍了交流与其他好习惯的不同(different)之处。]
40．B [该空前的self d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )irected control暗示交流不只是关于自我控制和精神专注(focus)的。control与focus属于同一范畴。]
41．C [结合常识可知，交流还与判断形势的能力(ability)有关。]
42．D [根据冒号后列举的内容可知，生活就是与其他人打交道。deal with处理；打交道。]
43．C [根据该空后的“...is about how to...”可推知，此处指交流的艺术(art)。]
44．B [根据上一段最后一句可知，交流是与人打交道，即与人接触(contact)。]
45．D [根据逻辑与搭配可知，此处应选goals，指帮助你实现目标。]
46．B [根据上半句中的“...you ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) are on the road to self improvement...”可知，应选journey。]21cnjy.com
47．C [根据文章第一句话并联系全文可知，如果不能与他人交流，你就极大地(greatly)减少了成功的机会。]
48．A [根据该空后半句“...a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lways had something positive to say.”和下文可知，Jerry总是说一些开心的事，由此可推断他应该是一个心情总是很不错的人。in a good mood心情很好，情绪高昂。]
49．C [根据常识可判断此 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )处指早晨起床的时候。stand up站起来；turn up出现；wake up醒来；give up放弃。故选C项。]
50．D [此句总结本段内容。句意为：过怎样的生活是你自己的选择。choice选择。]
51．A [根据下文Jerry的回答“I got really scared.”可知，此处是作者问他是否害怕。]
52．B [Jerry从医护人员的眼神中，当然是觉察到：他快要死去了。say说；read读，觉察；think思考；tell告诉。]
53．A [护士问Jerry是否对一些东西过敏，所以此空指医务人员等待他的回答。故选A项。]
54．C [此时Jerry是在急救室里面，当然是要动手术。wait等待；joke开玩笑；operate动手术；work工作。]
55．D [作者从Jerry的故事中，领悟到一个生活真谛：每天我们都应该选择充实的生活。]
56．A [细节理解题。从文章第一 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )段第二句“He had made a lot of money in trading with foreign countries.”可知，他是在和其他国家做生意的时候富起来的。]
57．C [细节理解题。由第二段第一句可知答案。]
58．D [细节理解题。从文章最后一段最后一句可得知人们写信是为了知道他注射的秘密。]
59．D [推理判断题。这是因为记者没有弄明白事情的真相，使人们产生了误解，所以记者应该弄清楚真相。]
60．B [推理判断题。当父亲教姐姐玛丽安娜练琴时，小沃尔夫冈在旁边的大椅子上静静倾听，这表明他对音乐有着浓厚的兴趣。]21教育名师原创作品
61．A [细节理解题。“Look ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) at your small hands.You must wait，little man！”不到四岁的小沃尔夫冈请求父亲允许他演奏一下姐姐娴熟演奏的美丽乐章时，他父亲说了以上一番话。]
62．C [细节理解题。由文中There was no end of fun during tea...这句话可以推断C项正确。]
63．A [细节理解题。文中“Liste ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n！”“Marianne is playing the piece better than ever！”的意思是父亲对玛丽安娜比以往演奏得好感到惊奇，但事实上是沃尔夫冈在演奏。B、D两项不符合题意；C项的干扰性很强，父亲在楼下饮茶，根本没有想到沃尔夫冈在演奏，所以C项是不成立的。]
64．A [细节理解题。由第三段第 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )一句“My teacher found me spiritless.”可知老师发现我情绪不好，把我叫到办公室和我谈话。]
65．C [推理判断题。根据第三段的“At ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) last，he added，‘If you are optimistic，things you want may happen to you！’”可知老师认为积极乐观的态度非常重要。]
66．B [词义猜测题。通过本段意思可知，我克服了情绪沮丧，和同学们玩耍，最终同学们接受了我。]
67．A [标题归纳题。全文主要叙述了作者失败后，在老师和同学的帮助下，克服自我，找回自信，最终勇敢面对未来的过程。]
68．B [细节理解题。根据文章 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )第二段中的“...my jacket because it didn’t fit well.It was a hand me down from my brother...”与第四段中的“These aren’t my boots...They are my brother’s boots.My mother makes me wear them...”可知作者穿的是她哥哥的夹克与靴子。]
69．A [细节理解题。根据 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )文章最后一段中的“I didn’t want to lose them，so I put them into the toes of my boots.”可知让帮助穿鞋的老师费了那么多耐心与力气的是藏在鞋子里的手套。]
70．D [推理判断题。从文 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )章第三段与第四段可知老师要帮小作者穿四次鞋：第一次是穿错了脚；第二次是脱下来重新穿上；第三次是作者说了“The aren’t my boots”之后，她又把鞋脱下来，当听说是作者的妈妈非让作者穿哥哥的鞋后，又把它们给作者穿上；第四次是听说手套被放在鞋子里了，就又脱下来重新穿了一次(文中没有点明，但可推出)。]
71．D [细节理解题。经过多年的磨砺，老师每次给她穿鞋都是那么有耐心，好像一点也不把小女孩的顽皮放在心上，这足以说明老师很体贴人。]
72．C [推理判断题。由文章第 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )四段中的“...this was golf，and rules are rules.I just knew what I had to do...”可知，他觉得要遵守高尔夫的比赛规则，所以答案选C项。]
73．D [正误判断题。由文章倒数第三段Robet Simon所说的话可知，在高尔夫运动中，荣誉比胜利更重要。故D项正确。]
74．A [词义猜测题。由文章最后一段并结合全文可知，Zach在开球之前将自己的球杆数了4次，tee off意为“发球，开球”，故选A。]
75．C [主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文讲述的是在高尔夫运动中，荣誉比胜利更重要。故C项能较好地概括全文。]

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.
My grandma，an amaz ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing 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.www.21-cn-jy.com
Then I got marrie ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d with another dream：building my family with a combination of adopted and biological children.In 1999，we adopted our first son.To lay eyes on him was fantastic—and very emotional.A year later came our second adopted boy.Then followed son No.3.In 2003，I gave birth to another boy.www-2-1-cnjy-com
You can imagine how ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) fully occupied I became，raising four boys under the age of 8！Our home was a complete zoo—a joyous zoo.Not surprising，I never did make it back to college full time.But I never gave up on the dream either.I had only one choice：to find a way.That meant taking as few as one class each semester.2-1-c-n-j-y
The hardest part ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys.They often wanted me to stay home with them.There certainly were times I wanted to quit，but I knew I should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives.
In 2007，I gr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )aduated from the University of North Carolina.It took me over 21 years to get my college degree!【版权所有：21教育】
I am not special，jus ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t single minded.It always struck me that when you’re looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge，but when you’re in the midst of it，it just seems normal.Everything you want won’t arrive in your life on one day.It’s a process.Remember：little steps add up to big dreams.
1．When the autho ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r went to Howard University，her dream was to be ________.
A．a writer B．a teacher
C．a judge D．a doctor
2．Why did the author quit school in her second year of college
A．She wanted to study by herself.
B．She fell in love and got married.
C．She suffered from a serious illness.
D．She decided to look after her grandma.
3．What does the author mostly want to tell us in the last paragraph
A．Failure is the mother of success.
B．Little by little，one goes far.
C．Every coin has two sides.
D．Well begun，half done.
4．Which of the following can best describe the author 21教育网
A．Caring and determined.
B．Honest and responsible.

One evening ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )I went out and left my 17 year old son in charge of his 8 year old brother and 4 year old sister.On this occasion，the work was made less troublesome by the presence of his girlfriend.I left with complete confidence that the older children would do a wonderful job of babysitting the younger children.Later，I discovered that complete confidence was the last thing I should have left home with.【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
I had decided to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )return home earlier than planned so that my son and his girlfriend could go out.I called home with this happy news.But instead of hearing his cheerful，grateful voice on the other end of the line，all I heard was the sound of a telephone ringing.
It was，I should ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )point out，after 10 p．m.，when the two younger children should have been in bed，and when the two older children should have been answering the phone.“I’ll give him a lesson，”I said.I decided they must be outside.Why they might be outside at 10∶30 on a winter night I had no idea，but it was the only explanation I could come up with.
Finally，in desper ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ation，I called his girlfriend’s house.After what seemed like countless rings，his girlfriend answered.“Yes，”she said brightly，“He’s right here.”
He came on th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e phone.I was not my usual calm，rational(理智的) self.After all，one of the rules of survival for modern parents is that you can’t trust modern teenagers.“Where are the children？” I said.He said they were with him.They had done nothing wrong.My son had taken the younger children over to his girlfriend’s house just for ice cream and cake.This was too good to be believed.Well，it turns out that I shouldn’t have believed it.It_was_only_part_of_the_truth.【出处：21教育名师】
The following S ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )aturday evening we were at my parents’ home，celebrating my birthday.My oldest son gave me the children’s gifts.Mounted and framed were a series of lovely color photographs of my children，dressed in their best clothes，and wearing their most wonderful expressions.They are pictures to treasure a lifetime，all taken by the father of my son’s girlfriend.21*cnjy*com

At a physics ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) conference dinner with my husband Alex，I sat next to a man I’ll call Clayton.Clayton kept talking about himself all through the entire conversation：He had solved problems no one else could；only his views were right；other researchers’ work was inaccurate or unimportant.I could not put in a word.Extremely annoyed，I planned to avoid Clayton in that future.In fact，I decided never to have another conversation with him.
A few days later I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) was in an education class.Our professor explained how one child could become the target of the other students’ ridicule (讥笑)．
“Usually it’s becau ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )se the class sees their own weaknesses glaringly magnified (放大) in that student.They don’t want to admit they have the same weakness，so they ridicule and exclude the student.The behavior of both the class and the excluded student is caused by personal insecurity.”
As I took notes，sudd ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )enly I thought of Clayton.It struck me that I have many of the same faults.How easily I rule a conversation and leave others out.I，too，sometimes feel that only my opinion is right.My concerns or work easily seems most important.As my professor had described，I reacted negatively to someone in whom I experienced my own weakness.
I changed my mind.I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nstead of avoiding Clayton，I’ll try to listen patiently with the same kindness and acceptance that I need.www.21-cn-jy.com
5．The writer was extre ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )mely annoyed with Clayton partly because________.
A．he said not all his views were right
B．he wouldn’t let her put in a word
C．he kept silent all through the dinner
D．he was too particular about the food
6．Who said the words in Paragraph 3

Whether it’s a caro ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )l(圣诞颂歌) service or an evening of karaoke in the pub，many people will enjoy a good old singsong this Christmas.Singing aloud will not just lift the spirits—it’s good for your physical health as well.Filling the lungs with air，increasing the heart rate and getting blood pumping round the body faster can all help our physical health.
For the past few yea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rs Heart Research UK has been running a Christmas campaign aimed at getting people singing，simply for the benefit it can bring.The organizer of the campaign says singing is a safe，simple and social activity that everyone can enjoy.“Singing is linked to long life，stress reduction，and general health protection.It also brings a great amount of happiness.It is impossible to sing well with a long face because it affects your pitch(音高)．”
Professor Graham Welch ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )，who leads the International Music Education Research Centre at the University of London，has spent more than 30 years studying the effects of singing.He says that singing is a form of exercise.It means we’re also having a strong aerobic activity(有氧运动) when we’re singing，which results in increasing the feeling of pleasure while decreasing that of stress.2·1·c·n·j·y
“And communal sing ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing—like in a singing group，a church service or even a singsong in the pub—helps improve our sense of self respect.It increases our sense of satisfaction with ourselves，a greater sense of feeling included.”【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
Helen Astrid，a sing ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing teacher，also sees the great effects that singing brings.“It lifts us up on a spiritual level，it helps our self respect，and it’s great for all ages from small kids to grannies—you can have a good sing and let_your_hair_down.”21·世纪*教育网
But she warns people ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) not to have too many beers or glasses of wine，though a glass may help them gather courage before taking to the stage during the holidays.
1．What are the benefits of singing according to Graham Welch www-2-1-cnjy-com
a．Living longer.
b．General health protection.
c．Feeling happier.
d．Reducing stress.
e．Improving the sense of self respect.
A．a，b，c B．b，c，d
C．c，d，e D．a，b，e
2．The underlined part“let your hair down”probably means “________”．
A．feel at ease
B．protect yourself
C．dress casually
D．cover your nervousness
3．What can we infer from the passage
A．Singing at Christmas is good for health.
B．One is not able to sing well when he or she is in a low mood.21教育网
C．Experts have disagreements on singing.
D．Singing is the same as other aerobic activities.21cnjy.com
4．Which is the best title of the passage
A．Karaoke—Best Place for Singing!
B．Christmas—Best Time for Singing!
C．Singing—Healthy but not Easy!
D．For Health—Let’s Sing!

Driving to a friend’s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) house on a recent evening，I was attracted by the sight of the full moon rising just above my friend’s rooftops.I stopped to watch it for a few moments，thinking about what a pity it was that most city people，myself included，usually miss sights like this because we spend most of our lives indoors.2·1·c·n·j·y
My friend had als ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o seen it.He grew up living in a forest in Europe，and the moon meant a lot to him then.It had touched much of his life.21·世纪*教育网
I know the feeling. ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Last December I took my sevenyear old daughter to the mountainous jungle of northern India with some friends.We stayed in a forest rest house with no electricity or running hot water.Our group had campfires outside every night，and indoors when it was too cold outside.The moon grew to its fullest during our trip.Between me and the high mountains lay three or four valleys.Not a light shone in them and not a sound could be heard.It was one of the quietest places I have ever known，a bottomless well of silence.And above me was the full moon，which struck me deeply.21cnjy.com
Today our lives ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )are filled with glass，metal，plastic and fiber glass.We have televisions，cellphones，pagers，electricity，heaters and ovens and air conditioners，cars，computers.
Struggling through ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) traffic that evening at the end of a tiring day，most of it spent indoors，I thought：before long，I would like to live in a small cottage.There I will grow vegetables and read books and walk in the mountains and perhaps write，but not in anger.I may become an old man there，and wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled and measure out my life in coffee spoons.But I will be able to walk outside on a cold silent night and touch the moon.

Over the summer,18 yea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r old Roberto Mancera of Chandler wasn’t looking forward to dances，football games or even his last year in high school.He was more excited about building a robot that will compete in the sixth annual FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC)Arizona Regional.
FIRST stands for Fo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology，a non profit organization that believes the heroes of today’s youth should be engineers，not sports or pop stars.They aim to change the culture by hosting athletic like competitions for robots，with cheering fans，mascots(吉祥物) and music.21*cnjy*com
Mancera and a team of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) about 14 of his schoolmates will compete this year against 44 other high school teams from all over Arizona，California and New Mexico at the Arizona Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Phoenix.Finalists will move on to the FRC 2009 Championship in Atlanta to face teams from 48 states and seven other countries.
For the 40 regional ev ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ents worldwide，a similar “kit(工具包)of parts” is given to each of the 1,680 teams from around the globe every January.The robot functions are different every year，and after a six week building season，robots are boxed up and shipped off to the competition’s destination.
The competition has ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) a minimum $6,000 entrance fee，and students are sponsored and mentored by adult professionals and experts，like computer science teacher Sam Alexander,39，at Chandler High.“I try to give the kids the challenge and they try to figure it out，” he said.“They work through the entire scientific method without me giving them the answers.”
FIRST studen ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ts are also eligible(有资格的) to apply for $9.7 million in college scholarships，something that Alexander’s students have taken advantage of.
“You learn skills t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hat your average student isn’t learning，” Mancera said.“It’s really amazing，and I’ve been able to meet a lot of interesting people.” Mancera said that he found himself when he joined the robotics team.He now has a career goal set and has learned valuable leadership skills.21教育名师原创作品
