I’d say I quarrel with my parents a lot. Throughout high school, I was always jealous(嫉妒的) of some of my friends who didn’t seem to have those problems at home, but I’ve come to see over the years that no one’s situation is perfect.
Part of the reason I work all week during my break, in addition to the money, of course, is to be out of the house to avoid continuing quarrels. At work, I eat lunch with my friend Krysta every day, but the best days are when our favourite workmate, Lucy, is on her lunch break at the same time as us. Her funny way of storytelling always has us laughing happily, and although she is almost old enough to be our mom, she feels more like a best friend.
A few weeks ago, however, there was a change in our lunch conversation, and the story she told had us in real tears instead of our usual tears of laughter. A more serious topic had come up, and she sat us down to explain the importance of forgiveness (宽恕), especially when it came to our parents. Telling stories of her troubled relationship with her mother, she changed my whole outlook(见解) on life and my feelings towards my parents. She reminded us that no matter how much resentment (怨恨) we’re feeling in a moment of anger, we have to be thankful for the support they provide and learn to forgive everything else.
This week I’ve spent my break at home, having very small quarrels and lots of quality time together with my parents. Sometimes you need a reminder to make you realize how important it is to let go of past resentment(放下过去的怨恨) and work to repair broken relationships. My workmate’s moving stories not only brought me to tears in the break room at work that day but served as that wake-up call as well.
24. Why was the author jealous of some of her friends
A. They didn’t have to work all week. B. They didn’t need to do housework.
C. They got along well with their parents. D. They could spend much time with their parents.
25. What do we know about Lucy
A. She likes to have lunch on her own. B. She is about the author’s age.
C. She has a sense of humor. D. She is a poor talker.
26. What happened to the author a few weeks ago
A. She was taught a lesson by Lucy. B. She was moved by Lucy’s mother.
C. She laughed happily at Lucy’s stories. D. She discussed her problems with Lucy.
27. What message does the author most want to give us
A. We shouldn’t waste valuable family time. B. We should show thanks to our parents.
C. We shouldn’t quarrel with our parents. D. We should forgive all but ourselves.
C
High school students perform better on tests if they are in a classroom with a view(视野)of a green space, instead of a windowless room or a room with a view of built-up space, according to research from the University of Illinois Department of Landscape Architecture.
“It is the first to show a relationship between studying with a green view and students performance,said William Sullivan head of the research team. It’s a significant finding that if you have a green view outside your window, you’ ll do better on tests.”Sullivan hopes the results of their research will lead to policy(政策)changes. Changes in school design,for example“would be a much better thing than any of the things we spend money on in secondary education today ,Sullivan said.
The research included 94 students at five central Illinois high schools Students were randomly assigned(随机分配)to one of three kinds of classrooms-windowless, with a window looking out onto built-up space, or with a window looking out onto green space. Each kind of classroom had a similar size and layout. The students took part in one-on-one experiments in which they did 30 minutes of activities that included a proofreading exercise, a speech and a math exercise. Following the activities the students were given an attention test which asked them to repeat a series of(一连串)numbers.
The findings(调查结果): Students did better on both study activities and the attention test if they were in a classroom with a green view, Sullivan said.
The researchers suggest their findings can help planners and policymakers improve students' well-being and learning. For example planners can choose sites for new schools that already have trees and other vegetation(植被), or they can plant many trees on the site;architects( 建筑师) can design classroom, dining room and hallway windows so they look onto green spaces.
28. What did the study find out about high school students
A. They like to have green plants in their classrooms.
B. They will get better grades when studying in different classrooms.
C. Changes in school design will influence their attitudes towards teachers.
D. A green view through a classroom window can improve their performance.
29. What does the underlined word“ significant”in paragraph 2 mean
A. traditional(传统的). B. important. C. necessary(有必要的) D. early.
30. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. How the study was carried out. B. Why the study was different.
C. The purpose of the study . D. The result of the study.
31. What do the researchers think of the study
A. It has drawn public attention to education.
B. It can play a guiding role in school planning.
C. It has encouraged students to get close to nature.
D. It needs more support from high school teachers.
D
If you want to become a fluent English speaker, you should take some advice: there are four skills in learning English. They are listening, speaking, reading and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills, you should first master the skills of reading and listening.
Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of the sentences, the meaning of the unfamiliar(不熟悉的) words, etc.
There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammar or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you encounter, but the fact you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example in other passages or books, is enough. It would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it.
As for listening, there are two choices: besides reading, you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading, then you can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening.
For listening, you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening, you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day. Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably taking some notes. If you follow these pieces of advice, your speaking and writing will improve automatically, and you can be sure that with a little effort they will become perfect.
32. According to the author, which should you improve first among the four skills
A. Reading and listening. B. Reading and writing.
C. Writing and speaking. D. Speaking and listening.
33. To improve your reading, when you read, you should ________.
A. look up all the new words in the dictionary
B. think about what you are reading actively
C. spend more time studying grammar
D. copy as many words and sentences as possible
34. What does the underlined word “encounter” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Meet by accident. B. Wind up.
C. Lose on purpose. D. Look for.
35. Which of the following may the author agree with
A. Everyone should listen to VOA or BBC programs every day.
B. You needn’t practice listening if you keep in reading every day.
C. Being good at reading is helpful in improving your listening.
D. You should take notes of whatever you are hearing.
