五、重点知识讲解
David and his brother ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Bob stood with their parents behind the fence at Monkey Island on a sunny Saturday afternoon. They watched the monkeys play on the rocks and enjoy the sun.
“I wish I could come every day,” said David.
“It sounds like you m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ight like to be a zookeeper,” Mr. Spencer said thoughtfully. “Do you see that woman wearing the dark brown pants and top I’m pretty sure she is a zookeeper. Why don’t you ask her to tell us something about her job ”
一个晴朗的星期六的下午,大卫同爸爸妈妈以及哥哥鲍勃来到动物园,他们在猴山旁,看猴子们在岩石上嬉戏打闹和享受阳光。
“每天都能来动物园该有多好啊!”大卫说。
“你是不是想当一名动物园饲 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )养员呢?”爸爸若有所思地说道。“看到那位身穿深棕色衣服的阿姨了吗?我想她应该是这里的动物饲养员。为什么你不请她告诉我们有关饲养员的工作情况呢?”
After David’s self ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )introduction, the woman, whose name was Carol, joined them minutes later.
“How long have you been a zookeeper ” asked Bob.
Carol smiled. “I’ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ve been here for almost 15 years,” she said. “I have a degree in zoology, like most of the other zookeepers here.”
“What are the bes ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t and worst parts about being a zookeeper ” asked David.
“Well, seeing the anim ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )als every day is the best part,” said Carol. “Zookeepers often form a strong bond with the animals under their care. Sometimes, we have to remind ourselves that the zoo animals are wild creatures, not pets,” she added.
“I think the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )worst part is that the work can be difficult and unpleasant,” continued Carol. “The cages are often smelly, and we have to work in all kinds of weather. We have to make sure the animals are clean and well fed and that they are kept in good condition.”
“Do you ever teach the animals to do tricks ” wondered Bob.
“That’s a go ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )od question, Bob,” said Carol. “Some visitors expect that the animals here will know how to perform. We are careful not to teach the animals to do things just to entertain people. Some animals, like the monkeys, enjoy playing, so we play games with them.”
大卫向那位名叫卡罗尔的饲养员阿姨做了自我介绍,几分钟后,她加入了他们(的谈话中)。
“您做饲养员多长时间了?”鲍勃问道。
卡罗尔笑了笑说:“我在这里工作快15年了”。她说。“和其他饲养员一样,我取得了动物学专业的学位。”
“作为一名饲养员,您认为您的工作中最大的乐趣和不足是什么呢?”大卫问道。
“每天能看到这些动物是我工作中最大的乐 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )趣,”卡罗尔说道。“因为长期精心地照料这些动物,每位饲养员都和这些动物结下了深厚的感情。有时,我们不得不提醒自己,它们毕竟是野生动物,而不是宠物。”
卡罗尔继续说道:“饲养员这个工作其实并 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )不容易,也不轻松。饲养笼的气味很不好闻而且无论什么样的天气。我们都得坚持工作。还有,我们必须确保所有的动物状态良好:干净,吃得饱。”
“是不是还要训练它们一些表演技能?”鲍勃问道。
“你问的问题很好,鲍勃。”卡罗尔回答道。“有些游客希望看到这里的动物表演,但是,我们不会为了让它们给游客表演、取悦游客而去训练它们。有些动物,比如猴子,它们天生好动,喜欢玩,那我们就陪它们玩。”
“So, what do you ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )think, David Does it sound like zookeeping is something that might interest you ” asked Carol.
“I’m even more excited by the idea than I was before!” said David.
“I think that cleani ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ng the litter box at home should be your chore now,” joked Bob. “It would be good practice for you!”
“怎么样,大卫?这听起来还像你喜欢的饲养动物的工作吗?”卡罗尔问道。
“我更喜欢啦!”大卫答道。
“以后家里洗盘子的事情就归你了”,鲍勃开玩笑说,“这对你将来的工作来说,是个很好的练习。”
【典型例题】
Last week, 169 Jun ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ior 1 students at No. 35 Middle School of Shenyang took their first no-teacher exam. After the teacher handed out the exam paper, he left the room and never came back. A student collected in the papers when the exam ended.
“That test was not only a test of knowledge, but also a test of moral (道德). We wanted to show students how important honesty (诚实)is, ”said Cai Wenguo, the school’s headmaster. The school says no cheating (作弊)happened in the test. Next year, it wants 80% of its exams to be without teachers. But students have different ideas.
“I was happy and excited during the exam because my teachers trusted (信任)me, ”said Lang Yudan, a 13-year-old girl in Class 11.
“Schools must trust ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) students a lot not to use invigilators (监考人). But I think it is too early. Some students will cheat if there are no invigilators. And the students will not be able to ask for help when needed. ”said Hua Sha.
“I don’t like having invigilators in exams. When they walk around the classroom, they make me nervous. I would get higher marks without them in the room because I would feel more relaxed. ”Liu Qingxi said.
“I think it’s very important to have invigilators in exams. Many students want to check their answers with each other after they have finished papers. And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens. They may make me nervous, but I still think we need them. ”ShangGuanyuan said.
Not using invigilators may be a good idea. But before using it, schools must tell students the importance of honesty and try to find ways to solve something unusual in exams.
1. The passage mainly (主要地)talks about ______.
A. how to pass an exam
B. how to make students honest
C. whether there is cheating in exams
D. whether invigilators are needed in exams
2. No. 35 Middl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e School of Shenyang held a no-teacher exam to _______.
A. let the students have a good rest
B. teach the students in a better way
C. help all the students pass the exam
D. find whether the students were honest
3. From what the students have said, we know ________.
A. invigilators really help them a lot
B. all of them think it is a good idea
C. something unusual never happens in exams
D. not all of them agree with the headmaster
4. What does Hua Sha think about no-teacher exams
A. It’s a good idea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) to have no -teacher exams but something must be done first.
B. If there are no in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )vigilators, the students will certainly get lower marks.
C. Exams witho ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ut invigilators will never be held since students are not honest.
D. She thinks it’s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the best way to show that schools trust their students a lot.
5. In the sentence ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )“And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens” “they” refers to (指)_________.
A. students B. headmasters C. invigilators D. schools

三、阅读理解
A
It was a lovely sunny Saturday morning in early October. Jan Hunter sat out of the window of her room as she planned what she would do today. She would like to take Buster, her sheep, to the field for a short walk. Perky, her hamster (an animal like a mouse) and Slipper, her snake, would enjoy an outing too.
“I’ll help you clean ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )your room,” Mrs. Hunter said. “Then you’ll be free to do what you want the rest of the day.”
Jan started picking up ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) her clothes. Mrs. Hunter turned to the bed to take off the sheets (床单). As she lifted the pillow( 枕头), Slipper moved quickly under the blanket(毯子).
“That does it!” Mrs. H ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )unter cried. “Get that snake out of here! And look at this—one of your best shoes too dirty to see the color. This is it. Jan. No more animals in the house; that’s final!” Mrs. Hunter said in a loud voice as she marched out of the room.
Jan felt sad. ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )She walked slowly across the street, Buster followed behind, to tell her tale to her old friend Mr. Ward. He thought for a few minutes. Then he said that if Jan found the right cages(笼子) for the pets, perhaps Mrs. Hunter could let the animals live out on the warm sun porch(门廊).
Jan remembered a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n old bird cage that would do for Perky. Buster’s bed could simply be moved. Something for Slipper, though, was a real problem.
“Let’s see what there ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) is out in my garden,” Mr. Ward suggested. They found a aquarium(鱼缸)in the corner. Mr. Ward pulled out a large piece of glass that would do for a cover. Jan and Buster rushed home to see what Mrs. Hunter would say.
When Mr. Ward heard ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Jan’s loud cry of joy, he knew Jan’s troubles were over.
33. The story took place on_____________.
A. a cold day in March B. a weekend day in October
C. a Saturday in September D. a warm day in January
34. __________ is the most important character in the story.
A. Jan B. Mrs. Hunter C. Mr. Ward D. Buster
35. What happened first in the story
A. Jan took Buster for a walk.
B. Mrs. Hunter saw the dirty shoes.
C. Mrs. Hunter saw Slipper in Jan’s room.
D. Jan told her sad story to her friend Mr. Ward.
36. What was the problem in the story
A. Mrs. Hunter was afraid of snakes.
B. Mr. Ward had an aquarium in his garden.
C. Jan didn’t know what to do in such good weather.
D. Jan’s mother said the pets couldn’t stay in the house.
*B
Plants and animal ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s, including humans, need food and water to live on. These are from the natural resources(资源) on Earth. To protect these resources, we need to keep the air clean and the water drinkable. We need to keep the soil (土壤)healthy. How do we do that
Protect the land
The soil that co ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )vers fields and farms provides much of the food we eat. Human activities such as plowing(耕) fields, mining(采矿), and building highways can destroy (破坏)the land. Erosion happen when wind and water carry away the soil. Soil erosion can turn rich farmland into a desert wasteland. So does this mean we shouldn’t build a highway or plow a field Of course not. But it does mean we might think about Earth—friendly ways of doing those things.
Today farmers plow ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )their fields in different ways to prevent erosion. They try to use less water for their crops. They keep animals from eating the growing grass in just one area. Farmers also plant trees to prevent erosion from happening.
Save the Trees
Another human act ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ivity that damages the land is deforestation(采伐森林). People take away a large number of trees from a forest. Millions of square kilometers of forest disappear each year. When this happens, many plants and animals lose their places to live. They may die out, or become very few. Scientists haven’t even discovered all the living things in the forest. We may be losing some without even knowing they are there. Trees absorb (吸收)and use carbon dioxide (二氧化碳)when they make food. Environmentalists encourage careful management of the forests. They ask people to replant trees after they cut down the forest.
Recycle, Reuse, Reduce
People throw a piece of paper into the wastebasket after using it. The paper becomes trash. Where does the trash go next Much of our trash ends up in landfills(垃圾填埋地). They take up valuable land and sometimes pollute the water, air, and land around them. More than a third of the trash in landfills is paper. Recycling, reusing, and reducing what you throw away can cut down on the need for more landfills. In fact, we can recycle about eighty percent of household trash.
37. What does the underlined word erosion mean
A. Plowing fields and mining
B. Cutting down trees and farming.
C. Wind and rain carrying away soil.
D. Building highways on the farmland.
38. Why do we need to save the trees
A. To discover more new trees every year.
B. To encourage careful management of the forest.
C. To take away a large number of trees from the forest.
D. To keep good places for animals and plants to live in.
39. How much of the trash can we recycle
A. All the trash. B. Very little. C. One third. D. Four fifths.
40. What’s the purpose of the author writing the passage
A. To ask people to look for places to plant trees.
B. To tell people how to protect natural resources.
C. To show how the lands are destroyed by people.
D. To discuss ways of protecting animals and plants.
**C
Growing up in Phil ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )adelphia, Lieberman started cooking with his stay-at-home dad when he was seven. His food-loving family had two kitchens, and he quickly learned what was the best way to bake his cakes. Lieberman improved his kitchen skills greatly during a year abroad before college, learning from a cook in Italy and studying local specialties (地方特色菜) in Germany, Spain and France. At Yale, he was known for throwing dinner parties, single-handedly frying and baking while mixing drinks for dozens of friends. Just for fun, he and some friends decided to tape a show named Campus Cuisine about his cooking. Lieberman was a real college student showing his classmates how to do things like make drinks out of dining-hall fruit. That helped the show become very popular among the students. They would stop Lieberman after classes to ask for his advice on cooking. Tapes of the show were passed around, with which his name went beyond the school and finally to the Food Network.
Food Network produc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )er Flay hopes the young cook will find a place on the network television. He says Lieberman’s charisma is key. “Food TV isn’t about food anymore,” says Flay. " “It' s about your personality(个性) and finding a way to keep people's eyeballs on your show.”
But Lieberma ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n isn't putting all his eggs in one basket. After taping the first season of the new show, Lieberman was back in his own small kitchen preparing sandwiches. An airline company (航空公司) was looking for someone to come up with a tasteful, inexpensive and easy-to-make menu to serve on its flights. Lieberman got the job.
41. We can learn from the text that Lieberman’s family _______.
A. have relatives in Europe B. love cooking at home
C. often hold parties D. own a restaurant
42. The Food Network got to know Lieberman _______.
A. at one of his parties B. from his teachers
C. through his taped show D. on a television program
43. What does the word “charisma” underlined in the text refer to
A. A natural abil ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ity to attract others. B. A way to show one's achievement.
C. Lieberman ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )’s after-class interest. D. Lieberman’s fine cooking skill.
44. Why did the airline company give Lieberman the job
A. He could prepare meals in a small kitchen.
B. He was famous for his shows on the Food TV.
C. He was good at using eggs to make sandwiches.
D. He could cook cheap, delicious and simple meals.
45. What can we learn about Lieberman from the text
A. He is clever but lonely. B. He is friendly and active.
C. He enjoys traveling around. D. He often changes his menus.
四、根据对话内容,用方框中所给词的适当形式填空。(其中有一词多余)
teach, student, invent, himself, at, job, importance, know
School education ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )is very important and useful. Yet no one can learn everything at school and a teacher cannot teach his 1 everything they want to know.
His 2 is to show ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So much more is to be learned outside school by the students 3 .
It is always more ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) 4 to know how to study by oneself. It is quite easy to learn something, but it is difficult to use it to solve problems. Great in ventors do not get everything 5 school, but they still can 6 many things and change the world a lot.
How can the i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nventors do all of this One of the answers is: they 7 how to study. A lot of things are not taught in the classroom. They get a lot of knowledge by reading outside school. They work hard and never give up all their lives.
五、根据中文意思完成句子:
1. 不要在床上看书,对你眼睛有害。
Don’t read in bed. _________________________________ your eyes.
2. 我今天没时间。明天怎么样?
