第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2.5分,满分50分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
A blocked airway can kill someone in three to four minutes, but it can take more than eight minutes for an ambulance to arrive. So a simple procedure such as opening someone’s airway can save their life while they’re waiting for emergency medical help. This means you’re more likely to give first aid to someone you know than a stranger.
There are many misconceptions surrounding first aid. Below are the "most popular" ones with details of what you should do.
Top four first aid misconceptions:
You should put butter or cream on a burn. The only thing you should put on a burn is cold water—keep the butter for cooking. Put the affected area under cold running water for at least ten minutes
The best way to treat bleeding is to put the wound under a tap. If you put a bleeding wound under a tap, you wash away the body`s clotting agents(凝血剂)and make it bleed more. Instead, put pressure on the wound with whatever is available to stop or slow down the flow of blood. As soon as possible call 911. Keep pressure on the wound until help arrives.
Nosebleeds are best treated by putting the head back. If you put the head back during a nosebleed, all the blood goes down the back of the airway. Instead, advise them to tilt(倾斜)their head forwards and ask them to pinch(捏)the end of their nose and breathe through their mouth.
You need lots of training to do first aid. You don’t—what you mostly need is common sense. You can learn enough first aid knowledge in a few minutes to save someone`s life—whether it`s from reading a book, attending a course or watching videos online.
Remember that anyone can save a life.
36. The most important point to save an airway blocked person’s life is to________.
A. keep his airway open
B. ensure the ambulance’s arriving time
C. keep the surroundings quiet
D. ask for emergency medical help immediately
37. If a person is burnt, what you should do immediately is________.
A. put some cream on the burn area
B. heat up some butter for the burn
C. place the burn under cold running water

Plastic bags are not costly to produce. They are also strong and easy to carry. This is why they are a popular container in most parts of the world. But they are also a major source of pollution. It can take hundreds of years for plastic bags to break down. As they do, tiny pieces can poison soil, lakes, rivers and oceans. Therefore, environmental experts urge people to reuse and recycle plastic bags.
Maryland artist Allita Irby does just that. It starts with the morning newspaper. What is more important is getting that plastic bag the paper comes in. The mixed media artist recognized its rich possibilities about three year ago. “As I was taking the newspaper out, I felt the texture of these bags. They were soft. I just looked down and realized it would take three to make a braid (辫子).” Since then, Irby has been using plastic bags to create abstract lines in her art works.
Before incorporating plastic bags in her works, Irby used natural materials like feathers, leather and dried plants. All those elements represent her Native American ancestry (血统) and identity, like one of her works called “Navaho Bundles”.
Ms. Irby’s neighbors praised her ability to turn waste into treasure. Some, like Charlotte Hogan, asked the artist to teach them how to create art using the used plastic bags. “I think it is fascinating, and it is wonderful. I do plan to share it with my seniors at my church.” One of Irby’s neighbors Aleta Meyer expressed her surprise, “I have never given any more thought to what to do with a plastic bag. This is definitely different.”
Shirley Watts also lives in the neighborhood. She plans to show others her art. “I want to make a masterpiece that I can put in a frame and put it up on my wall and then I know that I did it.”
“Making art with found materials is not a new idea. Anyone can do it. Recycled paper, cloth and metal goods can become beautiful pictures and sculptures,” Allita Irby said, “I think we are all artists really, and there is beauty all around us.” The artist also said that all you had to do was open your eyes and bring the outside in.
41. What is mainly discussed in the first paragraph
A The advantage of plastic bags. B. The disadvantage of plastic bags.
C. How to reuse and recycle plastic bags. D. The importance of recycling plastic bags.
42. The underlined part “does just that” in the second paragraph means “_______”.
A. produces plastic bags B. makes use of used plastic bags
C. makes plastic bags break down D. urges people to reuse and recycle plastic bags
43. What is Irby’s neighbors’ attitude towards her action
A. Supportive. B. Negative C. Suspicious. D. Unknown.
44. Who intends to share the skill of turning used plastic bags into art with old people
A. Aleta Meyer. B. Allita Irby. C. Charlotte Hogan D. Shirley Watts
45. According to Alllita Irby, the most important step in making art with found materials is _______.
A. to come up with the idea B. to seek beauty all around us
C. to be open to new ideas and things D. to choose the most suitable objects
【答案】41. D 42. B 43. A 44. C 45. C
【解析】

【41题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段的“But they are also a major source of pollution. It can take hundreds of years for plastic bags to break down. As they do, tiny pieces can poison soil, lakes, rivers and oceans. Therefore, environmental experts urge people to reuse and recycle plastic bags. (但它们也是主要的污染源。塑料袋需要数百年才能分解。正如它们所做的,微小的碎片可以毒害土壤、湖泊、河流和海洋。因此,环境专家敦促人们重复使用和回收塑料袋)”可知,本段主要讨论了回收利用塑料袋的重要性。故选D。
【42题详解】
词句猜测题。根据上段末句“Therefore, environmental experts urge people to reuse and recycle plastic bags. (因此,环境专家敦促人们重复使用和回收塑料袋)”可知,环境专家敦促人们重复使用和回收塑料袋。因此推断划线句表示:马里兰州的艺术家Allita Irby就是这样做的。由此推测,划线部分指的是“利用使用过的塑料袋”。故选B。
【43题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段的“Ms. Irby’s neighbors praised her ability to turn waste into treasure. (Ms. Irby的邻居都称赞她变废为宝的能力)”推知,邻居们对Ms. Irby的行为是支持的。故选A。
【44题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段的“Some, like Charlotte Hogan, asked the artist to teach them how to create art using the used plastic bags. “I think it is fascinating, and it is wonderful. I do plan to share it with my seniors at my church.” (一些人,比如Charlotte Hogan,要求艺术家教他们如何用使用过的塑料袋创作艺术。‘我认为这是迷人的,是美妙的。我确实打算在我的教堂和我的前辈们分享。’)”可知,Charlotte Hogan打算把使用过的塑料袋变成艺术品的技术分享给老人。故选C。
【45题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Allita Irby said, 'I think we are all artists really, and there is beauty all around us.' The artist also said that all you had to do was open your eyes and bring the outside in. (Allita Irby 说,“我认为我们都是真正的艺术家,美就在我们身边。”艺术家还说,你所要做的就是睁开眼睛,把外面的东西带进来)”可知,Alllita Irby认为用现成的材料制作艺术品最重要的一步是对新想法持开放态度。故选C。
C
What if you could use your clothes to browse the internet and send messages A “digital cloth” created by researchers at Fudan University in Shanghai is making this a reality.
Research on a new type of flexible textile (织物) with a display system that has multiple applications was published in the journal Nature on March 10.
A user can read messages reply and even navigate on his sleeve, as shown in a video produced by the team. The team claimed that the material is also comfortable to wear. “Clothes woven with this new material can closely follow the irregular outline of the human body and are as light and breathable as ordinary textiles, ensuring comfort,” said Peng Huisheng, leader of the team. The textile can also endure repeated folding and stretching. “Its brightness and stability remained almost unchanged after having been washed in a washing machine 500 times,” said Peng.
Behind the magical textile is ten years of hard work by Peng and his team. The research team created two functional fibers: a silver-plated thread that can light up, and a kind of thread that conducts electricity. According to The Paper, the biggest challenge lies in building programmable arrays (排列) of twinkling dots on the soft fibers with diameters ranging from tens to hundreds of microns. Inspired by the weaving process, Peng’s team found a solution by trial and error: the interweaving (交织) of the cross threads can naturally form a dot array similar to the array on a digital display screen.
Peng believes that the new cloth could be used for many things. For example, it could help people with language barriers or disabilities better communicate. In one test, Peng’s team monitored brainwaves from volunteers who had either been playing a game or relaxing. The waves were then translated into messages as “anxious” or “relaxed” and shown on the cloth. This could help hearing-impaired people “talk” to each other in the future.
“We hope that new materials will shape next generation electronic devices by changing the way we interact with them,” Peng told AFP.
46. What can we learn about the “the digital cloth”
A. It is an electronic device attached to sleeves.
B. It aims to replace traditional communication tools.
C. It’s characterized by flexibility and stability.
D. It’s designed for people with physical disabilities.
47. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about
A. The team’s efforts behind the new product.
B. The process of making the fibers.
C. Where the inspiration of the invention came from.
D. The advantages of the new digital cloth.
48. How could the textile benefit people
A. It could help monitor users’ emotions. B. It could convey the wearer’s mood.
C. It could talk to people. D. It could be used to treat hearing loss.
49. What’s the main purpose of the article
A. To encourage the use of a new product.
B. To predict the prospects of the new technology.
C. To introduce a new way of communication.
D. To inform readers of new research.

Two friends have an argument that breaks up their friendship forever, even though neither one can remember how the whole thing got started. Such sad events happen over and over in high schools across the country. In fact, according to an official report on youth violence, "In our country today, the greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment, but the terrible reality of violence". Given that this is the case, why aren't students taught to manage conflict the way they are taught to solve math problems, drive cars, or stay physically fit
First of all, students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable. A report on violence among middle school and high school students indicates that most violent incidents between students begin with a relatively minor insult (侮辱). For example, a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandwich each lunchtime. Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults, which in turn can lead to violence. The problem isn't in the sandwich, but in the way students deal with the conflict.
Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable, they can practice the golden rule of conflict resolution (解决) stay calm. Once the student feels calmer, he or she should choose words that will calm the other person down as well. Rude words, name-calling, and accusation only add fuel to the emotional fir On the other hand, soft words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes out of control.
After both sides have calmed down, they can use another key strategy for conflict resolution; listening. Listening allows the two sides to understand each other. One person should describe his or her side, and the other person should listen without interrupting. Afterward, the listener can ask non-threatening questions to clarify the speaker’s position. Then the two people should change roles.
Finally, students need f. consider what they are hearing. This doesn’t mean trying to figure out what's wrong with the other person. It means understanding what the real issue is and what both sides are trying to accomplish. For example, a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things. Students need to ask themselves questions such as these: How did this start What do I really want What am I afraid off As the issue becomes clearer, the conflict often simply becomes smaller. Even if it doesn't, careful thought helps both sides figure out a mutual solution.
There will always be conflict in schools, but that doesn’t mean there needs to be violence. After students in Atlanta started a conflict resolution program, according to Educators for Social Responsibility, “64 percent of the teachers reported less physical violence in the classroom; 75 percent of the teachers reported an increase in student cooperation; and 92 percent of the students felt better about themselves”. Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends, teachers, parents, bosses, and coworkers. In that way, conflict resolution is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country.
51. This article is mainly about _______.
A. the lives of school children B. the cause of arguments in schools
C. how to analyze youth violence D. how to deal with school conflicts
52. From Paragraph 2 we can learn that ________.
A. violence is more likely to occur at lunchtime
B. a small conflict can lead to violence
C. students tend to lose their temper easily
D. the eating habit of a student is often the cause of a fight
53. Why do students need to ask themselves the questions stated in Paragraph 5
A. To find out who to blame.
B. To get ready to buy new things.
C. To make clear what the real issue is.
D. To figure out how to stop the shouting match.
54. After the conflict resolution program was started in Atlanta, it was found that ______.
A. there was a decrease in classroom violence
B. there was less student cooperation in the classroom
C. more teachers fell better about themselves in schools
D. the teacher-student relationship greatly improved
55. The writer’s purpose for writing this article is to _______.
A. complain about problems in school education
B. teach students different strategies for school life
C. advocate teaching conflict management in schools
D. inform teachers of the latest studies on school violence
【答案】51. D 52. B 53. C 54. A 55. C

第一节:阅读表达(共5小题,每小题2分,共10 分)
阅读下面文章,按照要求回答问题。
My father was 44 and knew he wasn’t going to make it to 45. He wrote me a letter and hoped that something in it would help me for the rest of my life.
Since the day I was 12 and first read his letter, some of his words have lived in my heart. One part always stands out. “Right now, you are pretending to be a time-killer. But I know that one day, you will do something great that will set you among the very best.” Knowing that my dad believed in me gave me permission to believe in myself. “You will do something great.” He didn’t know what that would be, and neither did I, but at times in my life when I’ve felt proud of myself, I remember his words and wish he were here so I could ask, “Is this what you were talking about, Dad Should I keep going ”
A long way from 12 now, I realize he would have been proud when I made any progress. Lately, though, I’ve come to believe he’d want me to move on to what will come next: to be proud of and believe in, somebody else. It’s time to start writing my own letters to my children. As mothers, our children look to us with the same unanswered question we had. Our kids don’t retreat because they’re afraid to fail. They’re only afraid of failing us. They don’t worry about being disappointed. Their fear--as mine was until my father’s letter--is of being a disappointment.
Give your children permission to succeed. They’re waiting for you to believe in them. I always knew my parents loved me. But trust me: That belief will be more complete, that love will be more real, and their belief in themselves will be greater if you write the words on their hearts: “Don’t worry; you’ll do something great.” Not having that blessing from their parents may be the only thing holding them back.
56. Why did the father write a letter to the author (No more than 20 words)
____________________________________________________________________________
57. What did the father mainly want the author to learn from his letter (No more than 15 words)
____________________________________________________________________________
58. What does the underlined word “retreat” mean (No more than 3 words)
____________________________________________________________________________
59. What is the children’s fear (No more than 10 words)
___________________________________________________________________________
60. If your parents were to write you a letter, what would you expect to read Give your reasons. (No more than 25 words)
____________________________________________________________________________
【答案】56. Because he would die next year and wrote something to help the author for the rest of her life.
57. He hoped his daughter could get support and be confident from his letter.
58. Fall back./Draw back./Withdraw./Give up./Give in.
59. Their fear is of being a disappointment . Or: Their fear is of failing their parents
60. I would expect my parents to write about their love, support, and encouragement for me. Because they might help us overcome challenges in life.
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者从父亲写给自己的信中受到的鼓舞,并提倡家长应该给予孩子追求成功的勇气和鼓励,以帮助孩子克服内心对失败和失望的恐惧,充分发挥自己的潜力。
【56题详解】
考查细节理解。根据文章第一段“My father was 44 and knew he wasn’t going to make it to 45. He wrote me a letter and hoped that something in it would help me for the rest of my life.(我父亲44岁,他知道自己活不到45岁了。他给我写了一封信,希望信里的一些东西能对我的余生有所帮助。)”可知,作者的父亲给作者写信是因为自己活不到45岁,所以希望信里的一些东西能对作者的余生有所帮助。故答案为Because he would die next year and wrote something to help the author for the rest of her life.。
【57题详解】
考查推理判断。根据文章第二段“Since the day I was 12 and first read his letter, some of his words have lived in my heart. One part always stands out. “Right now, you are pretending to be a time-killer. But I know that one day, you will do something great that will set you among the very best.” Knowing that my dad believed in me gave me permission to believe in myself. “You will do something great.” He didn’t know what that would be, and neither did I, but at times in my life when I’ve felt proud of myself, I remember his words and wish he were here so I could ask, “Is this what you were talking about, Dad Should I keep going ”(从我12岁第一次读到他的信的那天起,他的一些话就一直活在我心里。有一部分总是很突出。“现在,你在假装自己是一个消磨时间的人。但我知道,总有一天,你会做一些伟大的事情,让你成为最优秀的人之一。”知道爸爸相信我,我就可以相信自己。“你会做一些伟大的事情。”他不知道那是什么,我也不知道,但在我生命中,当我为自己感到骄傲的时候,我记得他的话,希望他在这里,这样我就可以问:“爸爸,你刚才说的是这个吗?”“我应该继续下去吗?”)”可推知,作者的爸爸希望作者从信中得到支持,从而获得自信。故答案为He hoped his daughter could get support and be confident from his letter.。
【58题详解】
考查词句猜测。根据划线单词所在句下文“because they’re afraid to fail.(因为他们害怕失败)”可知,我们的孩子不会因为害怕失败而退缩。划线词为“放弃、退缩”之意。故答案为Fall back./Draw back. /Withdraw./Give up./Give in.。
【59题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第三段“They’re only afraid of failing us. They don’t worry about being disappointed. Their fear--as mine was until my father’s letter--is of being a disappointment.(他们只是害怕让我们失望。他们不担心失望。他们的恐惧——就像我在收到父亲的信之前一样——是担心自己会让人失望。)”可知,孩子们害怕的是自己让人失望。故答案为Their fear is of being a disappointment .或Their fear is of failing their parents。
【60题详解】
开放题。要求考生谈谈如果自己的父母给自己写信,自己希望信中有什么内容以及理由,考生言之有理即可。故参考答案为I would expect my parents to write about their love, support, and encouragement for me. Because they might help us overcome challenges in life.

第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2.5分,满分50分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
A blocked airway can kill someone in three to four minutes, but it can take more than eight minutes for an ambulance to arrive. So a simple procedure such as opening someone’s airway can save their life while they’re waiting for emergency medical help. This means you’re more likely to give first aid to someone you know than a stranger.
There are many misconceptions surrounding first aid. Below are the "most popular" ones with details of what you should do.
Top four first aid misconceptions:
You should put butter or cream on a burn. The only thing you should put on a burn is cold water—keep the butter for cooking. Put the affected area under cold running water for at least ten minutes
The best way to treat bleeding is to put the wound under a tap. If you put a bleeding wound under a tap, you wash away the body`s clotting agents(凝血剂)and make it bleed more. Instead, put pressure on the wound with whatever is available to stop or slow down the flow of blood. As soon as possible call 911. Keep pressure on the wound until help arrives.
Nosebleeds are best treated by putting the head back. If you put the head back during a nosebleed, all the blood goes down the back of the airway. Instead, advise them to tilt(倾斜)their head forwards and ask them to pinch(捏)the end of their nose and breathe through their mouth.
You need lots of training to do first aid. You don’t—what you mostly need is common sense. You can learn enough first aid knowledge in a few minutes to save someone`s life—whether it`s from reading a book, attending a course or watching videos online.
Remember that anyone can save a life.
36. The most important point to save an airway blocked person’s life is to________.
A. keep his airway open
B. ensure the ambulance’s arriving time
C. keep the surroundings quiet
D. ask for emergency medical help immediately
37. If a person is burnt, what you should do immediately is________.
A. put some cream on the burn area
B. heat up some butter for the burn
C. place the burn under cold running water
D. wash the affected area for a long time
38. If a bleeding wound is put under a tap what will happen
A. It will help the bleeding stop at once.
B. The wound will help produce more clotting agents.
C. It will produce more pressure on the wound.
D. The wound will bleed more and it is hard to stop the bleeding.
39. Which of the following statements is RIGHT
A. When a person’s nose bleeds, please put the head back.
B. You can learn first aid quickly in different ways.
C. When a person is burnt, keep pressure on the burn until help arrives.
D. Not everyone can do first aid to save a life.
40. The passage mainly tells us________.
A. how to learn first aid by yourself
B. some misunderstandings about first aid
C. the importance of first aid
D. how to help the medical team save a life
B
Plastic bags are not costly to produce. They are also strong and easy to carry. This is why they are a popular container in most parts of the world. But they are also a major source of pollution. It can take hundreds of years for plastic bags to break down. As they do tiny pieces can poison soil, lakes, rivers and oceans. Therefore, environmental experts urge people to reuse and recycle plastic bags.
Maryland artist Allita Irby does just that. It starts with the morning newspaper. What is more important is getting that plastic bag the paper comes in. The mixed media artist recognized its rich possibilities about three year ago. “As I was taking the newspaper out, I felt the texture of these bags. They were soft. I just looked down and realized it would take three to make a braid (辫子).” Since then, Irby has been using plastic bags to create abstract lines in her art works.
Before incorporating plastic bags in her works, Irby used natural materials like feathers, leather and dried plants. All those elements represent her Native American ancestry (血统) and identity, like one of her works called “Navaho Bundles”.
Ms. Irby’s neighbors praised her ability to turn waste into treasure. Some like Charlotte Hogan, asked the artist to teach them how to create art using the used plastic bags. “I think it is fascinating, and it is wonderful. I do plan to share it with my seniors at my church.” One of Irby’s neighbors Aleta Meyer expressed her surprise, “I have never given any more thought to what to do with a plastic bag. This is definitely different.”
Shirley Watts also lives in the neighborhood. She plans to show others her art. “I want to make a masterpiece that I can put in a frame and put it up on my wall and then I know that I did it.”
“Making art with found materials is not a new idea. Anyone can do it. Recycled paper, cloth and metal goods can become beautiful pictures and sculptures,” Allita Irby said, “I think we are all artists really, and there is beauty all around us.” The artist also said that all you had to do was open your eyes and bring the outside in.
41. What is mainly discussed in the first paragraph
A. The advantage of plastic bags. B. The disadvantage of plastic bags.
C. How to reuse and recycle plastic bags. D. The importance of recycling plastic bags.
42. The underlined part “does just that” in the second paragraph means “_______”.
A. produces plastic bags B. makes use of used plastic bags
C. makes plastic bags break down D. urges people to reuse and recycle plastic bags
43. What is Irby’s neighbors’ attitude towards her action
A. Supportive. B. Negative C. Suspicious. D. Unknown.
44. Who intends to share the skill of turning used plastic bags into art with old people
A. Aleta Meyer. B. Allita Irby. C. Charlotte Hogan D. Shirley Watts
45. According to Alllita Irby, the most important step in making art with found materials is _______.
A. to come up with the idea B. to seek beauty all around us
C. to be open to new ideas and things D. to choose the most suitable objects
C
What if you could use your clothes to browse the internet and send messages A “digital cloth” created by researchers at Fudan University in Shanghai is making this a reality.
Research on a new type of flexible textile (织物) with a display system that has multiple applications was published in the journal Nature on March 10.
A user can read messages, reply and even navigate on his sleeve, as shown in a video produced by the team. The team claimed that the material is also comfortable to wear. “Clothes woven with this new material can closely follow the irregular outline of the human body and are as light and breathable as ordinary textiles, ensuring comfort,” said Peng Huisheng, leader of the team. The textile can also endure repeated folding and stretching. “Its brightness and stability remained almost unchanged after having been washed in a washing machine 500 times,” said Peng.
Behind the magical textile is ten years of hard work by Peng and his team. The research team created two functional fibers: a silver-plated thread that can light up, and a kind of thread that conducts electricity. According to The Paper, the biggest challenge lies in building programmable arrays (排列) of twinkling dots on the soft fibers with diameters ranging from tens to hundreds of microns. Inspired by the weaving process, Peng’s team found a solution by trial and error: the interweaving (交织) of the cross threads can naturally form a dot array similar to the array on a digital display screen.
Peng believes that the new cloth could be used for many things. For example, it could help people with language barriers or disabilities better communicate. In one test, Peng’s team monitored brainwaves from volunteers who had either been playing a game or relaxing. The waves were then translated into messages as “anxious” or “relaxed” and shown on the cloth. This could help hearing-impaired people “talk” to each other in the future.
“We hope that new materials will shape next generation electronic devices by changing the way we interact with them,” Peng told AFP.
46. What can we learn about the “the digital cloth”
A. It is an electronic device attached to sleeves.
B. It aims to replace traditional communication tools.
C. It’s characterized by flexibility and stability.
D. It’s designed for people with physical disabilities.
47. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about
A. The team’s efforts behind the new product.
B. The process of making the fibers.
C. Where the inspiration of the invention came from.
D. The advantages of the new digital cloth.
48. How could the textile benefit people
A. It could help monitor users’ emotions. B. It could convey the wearer’s mood.
C. It could talk to people. D. It could be used to treat hearing loss.
49. What’s the main purpose of the article
A. To encourage the use of a new product.
B. To predict the prospects of the new technology.
C. To introduce a new way of communication.
D. To inform readers of new research.
50. What’s the main idea of this passage
A. A next generation electronic device has been developed.
B. A “digital cloth” helps hearing-impaired people “talk” to each other.
C. Shanghai researchers have developed a new type of textile with a display system.
D. It has been a reality for people to use their clothes to browse the internet and send messages.
D
Two friends have an argument that breaks up their friendship forever, even though neither one can remember how the whole thing got started. Such sad events happen over and over in high schools across the country. In fact, according to an official report on youth violence, "In our country today, the greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment, but the terrible reality of violence". Given that this is the case, why aren't students taught to manage conflict the way they are taught to solve math problems, drive cars, or stay physically fit
First of all, students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable. A report on violence among middle school and high school students indicates that most violent incidents between students begin with a relatively minor insult (侮辱). For example, a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandwich each lunchtime. Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults, which in turn can lead to violence. The problem isn't in the sandwich, but in the way students deal with the conflict.
Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable, they can practice the golden rule of conflict resolution (解决) stay calm. Once the student feels calmer, he or she should choose words that will calm the other person down as well. Rude words, name-calling, and accusation only add fuel to the emotional fir On the other hand, soft words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes out of control.
After both sides have calmed down, they can use another key strategy for conflict resolution; listening. Listening allows the two sides to understand each other. One person should describe his or her side, and the other person should listen without interrupting. Afterward, the listener can ask non-threatening questions to clarify the speaker’s position. Then the two people should change roles.
Finally, students need f. consider what they are hearing. This doesn’t mean trying to figure out what's wrong with the other person. It means understanding what the real issue is and what both sides are trying to accomplish. For example, a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things. Students need to ask themselves questions such as these: How did this start What do I really want What am I afraid off As the issue becomes clearer, the conflict often simply becomes smaller. Even if it doesn't, careful thought helps both sides figure out a mutual solution.
There will always be conflict in schools, but that doesn’t mean there needs to be violence. After students in Atlanta started a conflict resolution program, according to Educators for Social Responsibility, “64 percent of the teachers reported less physical violence in the classroom; 75 percent of the teachers reported an increase in student cooperation; and 92 percent of the students felt better about themselves”. Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends, teachers, parents, bosses, and coworkers. In that way, conflict resolution is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country.
51. This article is mainly about _______.
A. the lives of school children B. the cause of arguments in schools
C. how to analyze youth violence D. how to deal with school conflicts
52. From Paragraph 2 we can learn that ________.
A. violence is more likely to occur at lunchtime
B. a small conflict can lead to violence
C. students tend to lose their temper easily
D. the eating habit of a student is often the cause of a fight
53. Why do students need to ask themselves the questions stated in Paragraph 5
A. To find out who to blame.
B. To get ready to buy new things.
C. To make clear what the real issue is.
D. To figure out how to stop the shouting match.
54. After the conflict resolution program was started in Atlanta, it was found that ______.
A. there was a decrease in classroom violence
B. there was less student cooperation in the classroom
C. more teachers fell better about themselves in schools
D. the teacher-student relationship greatly improved
55. The writer’s purpose for writing this article is to _______.
A. complain about problems in school education
B. teach students different strategies for school life
C. advocate teaching conflict management in schools
D. inform teachers of the latest studies on school violence

阅读下面文章,按照要求回答问题。
My father was 44 and knew he wasn’t going to make it to 45. He wrote me a letter and hoped that something in it would help me for the rest of my life.
Since the day I was 12 and first read his letter, some of his words have lived in my heart. One part always stands out. “Right now, you are pretending to be a time-killer. But I know that one day, you will do something great that will set you among the very best.” Knowing that my dad believed in me gave me permission to believe in myself. “You will do something great.” He didn’t know what that would be, and neither did I, but at times in my life when I’ve felt proud of myself, I remember his words and wish he were here so I could ask, “Is this what you were talking about, Dad Should I keep going ”
A long way from 12 now, I realize he would have been proud when I made any progress. Lately, though, I’ve come to believe he’d want me to move on to what will come next: to be proud of and believe in, somebody else. It’s time to start writing my own letters to my children. As mothers, our children look to us with the same unanswered question we had. Our kids don’t retreat because they’re afraid to fail. They’re only afraid of failing us. They don’t worry about being disappointed. Their fear--as mine was until my father’s letter--is of being a disappointment.
Give your children permission to succeed. They’re waiting for you to believe in them. I always knew my parents loved me. But trust me: That belief will be more complete, that love will be more real, and their belief in themselves will be greater if you write the words on their hearts: “Don’t worry; you’ll do something great.” Not having that blessing from their parents may be the only thing holding them back.
