Ⅴ. 阅读理解
I have a lot of teachers that I love. However, the teacher that I remember most is Mrs Green from Marianna, Florida. She was my 5th-grade teacher. Since I was a new student, not only in her class, but at the school, she made my time there much more pleasant. I immediately began to like her. She was really funny and I knew that she liked me. She made learning fun. I remember one day, for Christmas holidays, she taught us how to make ornaments(装饰物) from eggs. My parents still have some of the ornaments I made.
She made me leader for many group projects and that made me feel special. I think that will make any child feel special, especially when a child is in a new place with no friends. She made me want to be like that—not to pick a “favourite” student, but to make every student feel that he or she is special. That year, I received the Presidential Academic Award(美国总统学术奖). I was really proud and so were my parents.
Looking back on it, I think the reason why I did so well was that I felt I was important. Students do better when they feel they are important or loved. Mrs Green always gets to know her students and forms personal relationships with them, which I will try to do some day. I just hope that there will be a student who finds me to be his or her favourite teacher as I found her to be mine.
1. The author's life in the new school was very ________.
A. hard B. happy
C. common D. boring
2. What can we learn from the second paragraph?
A. The author was Mrs Green's favourite student.
B. The author was the pride of his parents.
C. The author was once received by the President.
D. The author always felt lonely in Mrs Green's class.
3. What will the author probably do in the future?
A. Become a teacher.
B. Become an artist.
C. Become a leader.
D. Become the President.
4. How does the author feel about Mrs Green's help?
A. Sorry. B. Afraid.
C. Hopeful. D. Thankful.

Most American students go to traditional public schools. There are about 88, 000 public schools all over the US. Some students attend charter schools.
Charter schools are self-governing. Certain companies operate(经营) some charter schools. They are similar in some ways to traditional public schools. They receive tax money just as other public schools do. Charter schools must prove to local or state governments that their students are learning. These governments provide the schools with the agreement called a charter that permits(允许) them to operate.
Charter schools are different because they do not have to obey most laws that govern traditional public schools. Each school can choose its own goals and decide what to teach and how to teach in its own way. Class size is usually smaller than that in traditional public schools.
The government strongly supports charter schools as a way to reorganize public schools, which are failing to educate students. But some education unions are against charter schools. One teachers' union has just released the results of the first national study, which compared the progress of students in both traditional public schools and charter schools.
The results of the study show that charter school students performed worse on maths and reading tests than the students in traditional public schools.
Some experts say the study is not fair because students in charter schools have more problems than students in traditional public schools. Other education experts say the study results would make charter school officials realize that they should help their students make greater progress.
1. If a company wants to operate a charter school, it must ________.
A. try new methods of teaching
B. prove its management ability
C. obey the local and state laws
D. get the government's permission
2. What's the government's attitude to charter schools?
A. Doubtful. B. Supportive.
C. Satisfied. D. Unclear.
3. What can we learn from the text?
A. More students choose to attend charter schools.
B. Charter schools are better than traditional schools.
C. Students in charter schools are well educated.
D. People have different opinions about charter schools.
4. What might be the best title for the text?
A. Charter schools in America
B. Public schools in America
C. Schools in America
D. Education in America

Maybe you are an average student. __1__This is not necessarily so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here's how.
Plan your time carefully. When planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time.

Make good use of your time in class. __3__Listening carefully in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.
Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes, look at the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day, and read that material. __4__If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you'll remember it longer.
Develop a good attitude towards tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world won't end if you don't pass a test, so don't be over-worried.

Ⅱ. 阅读理解
Here's something to think about next time you ask your teacher for help:trying hard to do schoolwork on your own can help you learn. According to a recent study, the more you try while you are learning new information, the better you can remember it later.
This might surprise you. When teachers are presenting new information, they often give students lots of help. But a new study shows this may not be the best way to support learning. “Don't be too quick to get help when learning something new,” education expert Manu Kapur said. “Try to work on it yourself even if it means trying different ways.”
Kapur came up with the idea that trying hard can lead to better learning. Then he tested it out on students in Singapore. He separated students into two groups. In the first group, students were asked to solve maths problems with the teacher's help. In the second group, students were asked to solve the same problems by helping one another, instead of getting help from the teacher.
With the teacher's help, students in the first group were able to find the correct answers. Students in the second group did not solve the problems correctly. But they did come up with a lot of good ideas.
The students were then tested on what they had learned. The group without any help from the teacher scored much higher than the group who had help. Kapur said working to find the answers helped students understand the process(过程), not just the solution.
Kapur's advice for kids is to put a lot of efforts(努力) into learning something new rather than going to your teacher for help. “Simply doing a little work or nothing at all won't work,” says Kapur. “Try to solve a problem in as many ways as possible.”
1. What is the best title for the text?
A. Work your mind
B. Practice makes perfect
C. The best way to learn
D. Teachers' role in schoolwork
2. Manu Kapur holds that ________.
A. it's necessary for students to ask for teachers' help
B. students should try to solve problems by themselves
C. students with teachers' help have more good ideas
D. students in the first group are cleverer than those in the second group
3. The author develops the text mainly by ________.
A. presenting research findings
B. comparing different opinions
C. showing scientific information
D. setting down general rules

2.B 推理判断题。特许学校是经过政府特许的学校。文章第四段“The government strongly supports charter schools as a way to reorganize public schools…”表明政府强烈支持特许学校。故选B项。
3.D 词义猜测题。文章第四段“The government strongly supports charter schools as a way to reorganize public schools, which are failing to educate students. But some education unions are against charter schools.”表明政府强烈支持特许学校,但一些教育组织反对特许学校。故选D项。

Ⅱ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。在学习的过程中,遇到难题要想办法自己解决,而不是不思考就去找老师寻求帮助,因为自己解决问题更有助于牢记新知识。
1.A 主旨大意题。文章首先提出自己越努力解决问题,就会把新知识记得越牢固,接着通过实验结果证明了这一点,即没有老师帮助的学生在做数学题时,虽然没有做对,但想出了不少好主意,且在考试中获得较高的分数。最后作者再次通过研究者的话表明要尝试多种方法解决问题,多动脑。
2.B 推理判断题。根据第二段“‘Don't be too quick to get help when learning something new,’education expert Manu Kapur said.‘Try to work on it yourself even if it means trying different ways.’”可知,Manu Kapur鼓励学生们自己解决问题。
3.A 推理判断题。作者在第一段提出结论,在第二至第五段引用实验来说明这一结论,在最后一段建议学生该怎么做。由此可知,作者通过实验结果来证实文章观点。

Dear_Henry,
I_am_glad_to_hear_that_you_get_on_very_well_with_your_maths_teacher,Mr_Green.Now_I'd_like_to_tell_you_about_my_favourite_teacher. Mr Gao is my physics teacher. He is the best teacher I have ever had. He is patient and friendly but sometimes strict, too. He can make his lessons lively and interesting. Going to his lessons is something we look forward to.
Physics is not my favourite subject and I find physics is much harder in Senior High school than in Junior High school. I almost wanted to give up. Mr Gao gave me some advice on how to improve my physics. He even often helps me in his spare time. Now my physics is improving and I have become more confident! I think I am really lucky to have him as my physics teacher.
Best_wishes!
Yours,
Li_Hua

Good teachers are good at explaining things. Do you like to explain how something works, or how something happens? Being comfortable with explaining content(内容) to students is an essential(基本的, 根本的)skill for teachers.
Good teachers have a sense of humour. Research has shown that good teachers have a sense of humour, and that they are able to use humour as part of their teaching methods. Humour, used properly, can be a powerful addition to any lesson.
Module 2│ My New Teachers Good teachers like people, especially students in the age range in which they intend to teach. Most teachers choose an area of specialization(专业范畴)such as elementary education, special education, secondary education, or higher education because they have a temperament(气质) for students in those age ranges. If you are not comfortable working with young children, don't major in elementary education!
Good teachers are fair-minded. They are able to assess(评价)students according to performance, instead of the students' personal qualities. Module 2│ My New Teachers Good teachers are good managers of time. Time is one of the most precious resources a teacher has. Good teachers have learned to use this resource wisely.
Good teachers can lead or follow, as the situation demands. Sometimes, teachers must be members of committees, groups, councils, and task forces. Having the temperament to fun_ction in these capacities is extremely important. At other times, teachers play leadership roles. Module 2│ My New TeachersTask: Fill in the blanks according to the passage.
1.Being good at ________________ is the most important skill for good teachers.

Dear Editor,
There are two special teachers who teach at Richardson Elementary School in North Delta. They are Madam Romans and Madam Tayob. These two teachers have gone above and beyond their teaching duties. They need to be praised.
单元总结提升 │延伸拓展阅读 ①My daughter was lucky enough to have been taught by these wonderful teachers for Grades 6 and 7. Their class was different from any other class. The teachers and children had such a special bond(关系)with one another.
②On the last day of Grade 7 in 2007, I heard the song Time of Your Life by Green Day playing on the school speakers as I walked down the hallways to pick up my daughter. As I entered the classroom, all that I remember seeing was a classroom of children and two teachers crying. In fact, they were crying and hugging. It brought tears to my eyes. It was their last day together as most of the children were moving to different schools for high school. My daughter still tells me it was one of the saddest days of her life.单元总结提升 │延伸拓展阅读 Now, five years later, all of those students have graduated. This year is that Grade-7 class' graduating year! Knowing this year is the students' graduating year, these two special teachers invited this class to meet them for dinner the other day at Earls.
I always hear about special athletes or businessmen that give back to the community. These are two great teachers who care so much. They've taken time out of their busy schedules to organize a dinner for a group of students whom they taught.单元总结提升 │延伸拓展阅读 ③These kids will never forget how special these two teachers are, and how much they care, and I think the community shouldn't, either.
Sincerely,

【典句赏析】
①句意:我的女儿很幸运在六年级和七年级的时候被这两位优秀的老师教着。
赏析:enough后面常跟不定式短语作结果状语, 当不定式的动作发生在谓语动词之前时, 则不定式会用完成式形式。单元总结提升 │延伸拓展阅读②句意:2007年七年级的最后一天, 当我走在走廊里去接我女儿的时候, 听到学校的喇叭里播放着Green Day演唱的歌曲Time of Your life。
赏析:as引导的是时间状语从句。pick up意思是“(用车)接”;heard the song…playing中hear后面加了宾语和宾补, 构成复合宾语结构。
③句意:这些孩子们永远不会忘记这两位老师有多么特别, 不会忘记这两位老师是多么关心他们, 我想整个社区也不应该忘记。
赏析:how special these two teachers are, and how much they care是两个并列的从句作forget的宾语。

Ⅲ. 阅读理解
It's 5:00 in the morning when the alarm(闹钟) rings in my ears. I get out of bed and walk blindly through the dark into the bathroom. I turn on the light and put on my glasses. The house is still as I walk downstairs while my husband and three kids are sleeping peacefully. Usually I go for a long run, but today I choose my favourite exercise DVD, Insanity. Sweat pours down my face and into my eyes. My heart races as I force my body to finish each movement. As I near the end of the exercise, I feel extremely tired, but a smile is on my face. It's not because the DVD is over. It is a smile of success from pushing my body to its extreme limit.
Some people enjoy shopping, smoking, food, work, or even chocolate. But I need exercise to get through each day. Some shake heads when they see me run through the town. Others get hurt when I refuse to try just one bite of their grandmothers' chocolate cake. They raise their eyebrows, surprised by my “no, thank you”, or by my choice to have salad. Over the years, I have learned it's okay to just say “no”. I shouldn't feel sorry for refusing food that I don't want to eat.
So what drives me to get out of bed at 5:00 am? What gives me the reason to just say no to ice cream? Commitment. A commitment to change my life with a way that reduces daily worry, increases self-confidence and energy, extends(延长) life and above all improves my body shape. This is the point where a smile appears on my face as I look at myself in the mirror or try on my favourite pair of jeans that now fit just right. It's through commitment and sweat that I can make a difference within myself inside and out.
1. Why is there a smile on the author's face in the morning?
A. Because she sees her family sleeping peacefully.
B. Because she finishes her favourite exercise.
C. Because she enjoys the interesting DVD.
D. Because she feels a sense of achievement.
2. Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?
A. She doesn't treat others politely.
B. She likes to make others surprised.
C. Others don't understand what she does.
D. Others try to help her by offering her food.
3. What does the underlined word “Commitment” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Good health. B. Strong belief.
C. Strong power. D. Good habit.
4. What can we learn about the author from the text?
A. She acts in a strange way.
B. She wants to look different from others.
C. She aims to develop a good body shape.
D. She has difficulty getting along with others.

It'll soon be the birthday of one of my closest friends, Susie. I still cannot decide what to give her. She's a rare friend because she has been there for me all the time whenever I need a friend to talk to. I can always depend on her to be the first to arrive to give me advice when I have problems. I guess I am so lucky to have her as a friend.
It's more than seven years since I first met Susie in our school. I joined the theatre group and she was a director then. At first I thought she was intimidating but in the end I realized that she needed to keep a strict image in order for her actors and actresses to take her seriously. And then during practice I got a chance to know her better. In fact, she was a friendly and warm-hearted person. Soon we became good friends.
I don't know exactly what to give my friend on her birthday as I believe she has everything. So it's really hard to buy her a gift she will appreciate. This year I want something different and special but I don't know what to give. I search the Internet without any purpose and to my surprise there is a really lovely site where you can buy all kinds of gifts.
I scan some of their items and I find cool and exciting gifts. I choose a special personalized bracelet(手镯). I'm sure that this will look perfect on her. I put our names as part of the design of the bracelet so that it'll remind us that we'll forever be friends. I can't wait to give her my gift but I won't tell her yet. I don't want to destroy the surprise.
1. Why does the author consider Susie as a rare friend?
A. She can always offer help when the author is in need.
B. The author and Susie have lots of things to talk about.
C. Susie is good at solving problems.
D. Susie is a friendly and warm-hearted person.
2. The underlined word“intimidating”in Paragraph 2 most probably means“________”.
A. charming B. nervous
C. warm-hearted D. frightening
3. The author wants to put her and her friend's names in the bracelet in order to ________.
A. give her friend a big surprise
B. make the present more special
C. make her friend remember their friendship forever
D. remind her friend of the love between them
B
A few days ago, I went to school with lots of books, hoping to get a locker(有锁存物柜). Suddenly, it started raining heavily. I hurried to pay for my locker, but I was disappointed when they told me they only accepted cash(现金). I was $7 short, which meant I had to carry the books back home. It would be an exhausting two-hour journey back home with all those books.
An elderly gentleman nearby noticed my problem. He asked how much cash I needed. When I told him I was $7 short, he quickly took out the money from his wallet. “You don't have to pay me back,”he said. I was speechless; I didn't know whether to take the money or come back with the books the next day. A young student who was working there noticed my hesitation. “He's really nice,” said the student. “I was hungry this morning and he bought breakfast for me. He always helps people in different ways.”
The next day, I went to him and thanked him for trusting me and lending me the money. He said he forgot about it and didn't expect I would give it back. “I'm very happy,”he said, “not because I'm getting my money back, but because this is the right way to go—whatever you get from this world, give it back as much as you possibly can. Spread kindness around the world with the smallest things you can do.”
Later, I found out he didn't belong to any charity organizations. He has been performing these types of acts for years. Earlier, someone had done something incredibly kind for him and he has been spreading the kindness ever since. He taught me a very important lesson in life—we come to this world with nothing and we will leave with nothing. Whatever we own, it will become somebody else's and whatever we leave, it will become somebody else's.
4. When the old gentleman offered the money, the writer was________.
A. touched B. hesitant
C. amazed D. embarrassed
5. From Paragraph 3 we learn that________.
A. the gentleman worked in the school
B. the gentleman was kind but forgetful
C. the gentleman refused to take back the money
D. the gentleman thought it right to give back to society
6. Why had the gentleman been doing acts of kindness?

Jack Johnson is one of the most popular singer-songwriters in the world.
Jack was born on May 18, 1975 in Hawaii. Being the son of a famous surfer, Jack usually has an interest in surfing. Most of his life lessons were learned in the water. At the age of 17, Jack entered the finals of the Pineline Masters—the world's most famous surfing competition. Everyone thought Jack would become a professional surfer like his father. Unluckily, one month later, he had a deadly accident while surfing and was seriously hurt.
Life is like a revolving door. When it closes, it also opens. Jack started to practise playing the guitar and write songs when he was staying in hospital. At first, his father thought Jack only did it for fun, but soon he was surprised at the great progress his son had made.
When studying in the university, Jack didn't stop practising his guitar skills. He played the guitar for school parties. He wrote songs and sang for his teachers and friends. They liked his songs. His first music album Brushfire Fairytales came out in 2001. It was a great success. His second album, On And On, was much like his first. They were filled with sweet, easy-going songs that everybody liked listening to later. Jack had lots of concerts in and out of America. He became popular all over the world.
Jack had five albums by 2010 and more than 15 million copies of them were sold. His music doesn't fit into any of the popular music styles like pop, rocks, R & B or hip hop. It is more like folk music, played with a guitar and beautiful voice. When listening to his songs, you feel like lying on the beach enjoying the warm sunshine.
Jack is a talent, though he himself says he is only a surfer who loves music. In his songs we can find his secret of success. Whatever happens in our lives, we have to accept it and do the best we can.

Dear_Puzzled,_
Thank_you_for_your_letter.You_asked_me_about_how_to_improve_your_listening_and_spoken_English.Here_are_some_tips_for_you.
Firstly, you should be active in English class so that you'll have more chances to practise your spoken English.Secondly, reading English texts aloud every day is of great help.Thirdly, you'd better listen to English tapes more.It is also a good idea to watch some English programmes.
Personally, I like singing English songs and seeing English films.I even try to talk with native speakers if possible.I think all these can help your listening and speaking a lot.
Best wishes!
Yours,_
Li_Hua
