When I was in primary school,my favorite place was the library.I was the kid who got shouted at for trying to bring home sixty books at a time because I just couldn't decide which world I wanted to experience that week.I remember spending my weekends glued to a book,hungering for experiencing lives other than my own.Up until middle school,reading was a passion (酷爱) of mine.
Something changed after I entered senior high school though.All of a sudden,reading was a task that I could not avoid fast enough.The books that I read in school bored me,or even if I enjoyed the books themselves,the difficult homework we completed based on those books made me hate reading as a whole.
It actually wasn't until recently that I rediscovered my love for reading.How you may ask Audiobooks (有声书).Last summer,I spent every morning taking long walks while listening to them,and I would find myself lost in the stories for hours.And now I'm rediscovering my passion for reading.I feel that pull again.That eagerness.
My love story with reading may have had a happy ending,but not everyone is as lucky as me.What went wrong
What will happen is that students lose their love for reading because of the way many schools try to encourage children to read.For example,when a child is told to read for twenty minutes every night,they will read for the required amount of time and then check the task off on their list.In this way,reading has suddenly become a boring task instead of an exciting experience.
Making sure that kids keep their passion for reading will require us to rethink how we teach reading in schools and how we introduce books to children outside of school as well.There needs to be less of a focus on meeting reading requirements and more of a focus on creating an environment in which students are actually excited to read.
4.Which word best describes the author's love for books before high school
A.Confusing. B.Crazy.
C.Secret. D.Short lived.
5.Why did the author once hate reading
A.She couldn't choose what to read.
B.She found high school books difficult.
C.She was given too many books to read.
D.Reading as a task turned her off.
6.What does the underlined word “pull” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A.Desire. B.Pressure.
C.Panic. D.Confidence.
7.What advice does the author give in the last paragraph
A.Give kids extra curricular reading tasks.
B.Encourage parents to introduce books to kids.
C.Improve schools' ways of teaching reading.
D.Develop kids' interest in advanced literature.

Born in 1887 in a Russian Jewish town,Chagall started painting at the age of 19.Disappointed with the colors of traditional Russian art,he loved to paint with strong blues,reds and yellows.
So in 1911,he moved to Paris,France,where artists from around the world were creating novel art forms and he acquired fresh ways of painting eagerly.He stayed true to his childhood memories.While others chose modern subjects,he painted scenes of fantasy based on an older,farmer like way of life.Blue dogs,yellow skies and red trees were all creations of his imagination.
Chagall went through two world wars and personal sufferings.In 1941,because his family were Jewish,the Chagalls had to leave France to escape the Nazis during World War Ⅱ.In 1944 came another blow.Chagall's beloved wife Bella died of an illness.Despite the hardships,his passion for painting never faded.In the 1950s,he returned to France and continued to make his dreamlike paintings.
One day,during a walk in a village,he discovered a 700 year old church,where he saw a stained glass (彩色玻璃) window that contained a green horse.It looked as if Chagall might have created it himself.Here was a sure sign,he thought,that he should create his own stained glass windows.
Then Chagall devoted all his energy and time to the work.As we know,many stained glass windows are made of flat colors,but Chagall used various techniques to create the effects he wanted.He made flexible use of bright colors,putting light into the works.He painted images on glass,then had them fired to high temperatures,making the lines and colors part of the glass.
Chagall created the stained glass windows for churches and other buildings around the world until his death in 1985.He gave them as gifts to the world and often refused payment.Today,people are still amazed at how his stained glass creations shine and change with the sun.
8.Why did Chagall choose to go to Paris
A.To learn new painting skills.
B.To publicize his new ideas about art.
C.To experience the colorful local life.
D.To participate in modern art exhibitions.
9.What led Chagall to design stained glass windows
A.Desire to let in more sunlight.
B.Intention to improve the quality of glass.
C.Encouragement from some famous artists.
D.Inspiration from an ancient church window.
10.What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about
A.Chagall's working attitude.
B.The images Chagall created.
C.Chagall's artistic experiences.
D.The features of Chagall's works.
11.Which of the following can best describe Chagall as an artist

When put to the test,bees have proved over and over again that they've got a lot more to offer than making honey and now some scientists say there's proof that they also like to play.A study recently published in Animal Behavior suggests that bumblebees,when given the chance,like to fool around with toys.
Researchers from Queen Mary University of London conducted an experiment in which they set up a container that allowed bees to travel from their nest to a feeding area.But along the way,the bees could choose to pass through a separate section with several small wooden balls.Over 18 days,the scientists watched as the bees “went out of their way to roll wooden balls repeatedly,though there seems to be no apparent cause to drive them to do so.”
The finding suggests that like humans,insects also interact with inanimate (无生命的) objects as a form of play.Also similar to people,younger bees seemed to be more playful than adult bees.“Previous research has shown that there are lots of animals who play just for the purpose of enjoyment,but most examples come from young mammals and birds.This study provides a strong indication that insect minds are far more advanced than we might imagine,” Lars Chittka,who led the study,said.
The study's first author,Samadi Galpayage,who is a PhD student at Queen Mary University,added that it is the evidence that insects may be able to experience feelings.“They can actually experience some kind of positive emotional states,even if basic,like other larger fluffy (覆有绒毛的) animals do.This sort of finding has led to our understanding of insects and will,hopefully,encourage us to respect and protect life on earth ever more,” she said in the statement.
12.What is paragraph 2 mainly about
A.The conclusion of the research.
B.The assumption about the bees.
C.The description of the experiment.
D.The reasons for conducting the experiment.
13.What does the underlined word “apparent” in paragraph 2 mean
A.Clear. B.Preventable.
C.Horrible. D.Different.
14.What can we learn from the study
A.Birds like to fool around with toys.
B.Toys are more enjoyable to adult bees.
C.Humans seldom interact with lifeless objects for fun.
D.Insect minds are better developed than we thought.
15.Which statement will Samadi Galpayage agree to
A.Insects experience the same emotions as humans do.
B.Fluffy animals fail to show positive emotional states.
C.More work is needed to protect endangered life on earth.
D.The finding improves our understanding of living things.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
With my parents away on a business trip,I planned to spend a quiet weekend at home.But when my friend Chickie and Dom,invited me to join them for an afternoon at the beach,I was attracted.“I had an asthma(哮喘) attack yesterday,and it really tired me out,” I warned them.“So I'll probably just lie out on the sand.”
A few hours later,relaxing under a sun umbrella after a picnic lunch,I was glad I'd come.Chickie and Dom went for a swim.They liked to go far out into the sea.I was bathed in the sun until I got too hot,then took a walk down to the shore.
For a few minutes I just let the waves lap around my legs.The ocean was smooth as glass.I could float on my back as if I were in a swimming pool,I thought,and did.I closed my eyes and enjoyed the gentle rocking.
After some time,I opened my eyes and looked around.How did I get so far from the shore I hadn't realised how quickly the sea was carrying me.
I started swimming as quick and hard as I could.Even so I wasn't getting any closer,and it was becoming harder to breathe.I turned around,looking for help,but I seemed to be completely alone in the water.Far off on the sand I could see people packing up their belongings.It must be nearly five o'clock,I thought.That's when the lifeguard went off duty.
A wave slapped(拍打) my face and I swallowed salt water.My chest was already burning as I struggled to breathe.In desperation I raised one hand and waved it to get the lifeguard's attention.“I'll never last till he reaches me,” I thought.“They're all too far away.I can't get myself heard here and nobody even sees me!”
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
Fortunately,two young men happened to swim by.
Chickie and Dom were waiting anxiously on the beach.

【参考范文】
Fortunately, two young men happened to swim by.“Help,” I managed to whisper.One of them grabbed my arm.The other grabbed his arm.Together they pulled me towards the shore.The lifeguard rushed into the water with his board.He tried to convince me that the water was shallow so that I could just stand.However,I shook my head.I was too exhausted to stand,much less walk.They laid me over the board.“You were caught in a tide,” the lifeguard said as the three of the man carried me onto the sand.
Chickie and Dom were waiting anxiously on the beach.They were scared when they saw me being carried out of the water.I showed my sincere gratitude to the two young men who saved me.And the lifeguard warned us to be careful while swimming and never swim alone.Chickie and Dom took care of me and made sure I was okay.It was a quiet reminder that one should always be careful and never underestimate the power of nature,even on a supposedly gentle day at the beach.

39.their [考查代词。句意:然而,数百年来,当地的卡西人一直努力在河流和小溪上种植根桥,以方便他们在该地区活动。try one's best to do sth.意为“尽某人所能做某事”,主语为Khasi people,形容词性物主代词用their(他们的)。故填their。]
40.are built [考查动词的时态和语态。句意:这些桥是通过将活树的根延伸到河上,并将它们缠绕在竹结构上,以引导它们走向正确的方向。主语bridges与build构成逻辑上的被动关系,用一般现在时的被动语态。主语为复数。故填are built。]

42.to grow [考查非谓语动词。句意:这些树根需要20年才能长成一座完整的桥。take up(to)+时间+to do sth.为固定结构,空处用不定式。故填to grow。]
43.into/to [考查介词。句意:印度政府建议将梅加拉亚邦的根桥列入联合国教科文组织世界遗产名录。add...to/into意思为“将……加入……”,空处缺少介词into/to。故填into/to。]
44.that/which [考查定语从句。句意:这意味着它们将得到特别的认可,就像埃及的金字塔和澳大利亚的大堡礁一样,这将吸引更多的游客和资金到该地区。分析句子结构可知,空处缺少关系词,引导定语从句,先行词为设空处前面的内容,作从句的主语,且表示物,用关系代词that/which引导定语从句。故填that/which。]
45.generations [考查名词复数。句意:梅加拉亚邦 Morningstar Khongthaw表示:“我们希望传播这一知识,让后代受益。”generation(一代人)为名词单数,此处表示“未来的几代人”,用复数形式。故填generations。]
