When Andres Valencia starts drawing at school， his friends gather round to watch.And they are not the only ones who have noticed his talent.The 10-year-old has surprised the art world as Andres makes his first global auction （拍卖） this month.
The Californian art prodigy （神童） first picked up a paintbrush when he was five and now sells his pieces for tens of thousands of dollars.Young Californian artist Andres Valencia， 10， has been called “Little Picasso”.
He uses a stepladder to create his larger works and his talent was spotted early by his parents.They encouraged his work， which is influenced by Pablo Picasso， but just want him to enjoy painting.
“To be quite honest， we try not to talk too much about it in front of him，” his father， Mr Valencia， said.“We certainly don’t refer to him as a prodigy or anything like that.We just keep it simple with him.”
Mr Valencia said that he and his wife had resisted calls to homeschool their son so that he could focus more on painting.“We want him to go to school like a normal kid，” he said.“And because he’s 10， he’s not like a lot of artists， they go to work for six， eight， 10 hours a day painting.So he paints after school and on the weekends， but he also plays with his friends.”
Andres earned global recognition at Miami Art Week last December.The director Nick Korniloff said that experts were impressed before they knew Andres’ age.Mr Korniloff said，“We’ve had everybody attend our shows， all great celebrities and personalities， but this little brought down the house.”
Mr Korniloff refused to predict what the primary school student’s work may be worth to future investors but was certain it would last.“The work holds the wall just as good as anything else I’ve seen in a long career，” he said.
1.What do we learn about Andres Valencia？（ ）
A.He lived under his parents’ pressure.
B.His talent was first noticed by his friends.
C.He won global attention at the age of 9.
D.His dream is to become another Picasso.
2.Why did Andres Valencia’s parents refuse to homeschool their son？（ ）
A.To make him live a normal life.
B.To make him paint longer hours.
C.To enable him to get help from art teachers.
D.To enable him to get better education at school.
3.What does the underlined phrase “brought down the house” in Paragraph 6 probably mean？（ ）
A.Met with criticism. B.Gained appreciation.
C.Moved the audience. D.Attracted no attention.
4.What did Mr Korniloff think of Andres Valencia’s future？（ ）

Polar bears are strong creatures， standing up to nine feet tall and weighing up to one thousand pounds.5.（ ） Their snow-white coat is thick， with a double layer of fur.Also， a layer of fat lies just under their skin， keeping them extra warm.For months， polar bears have to live off this fat， gained from winter feedings on the ice.When they’re on land， they barely eat.
In early November 2016， the polar bears were still on land.There was no sea ice on Hudson Bay.Weeks passed.6.（ ） So the polar bears had to wait longer to return to the sea.
The warmer climate affected the polar bears in important ways.In the 1980s， Hudson Bay bears were bigger and rounder， well fed.7.（ ） That’s because with fewer weeks on ice， their hunting season has become shorter.They have less food.In Hudson Bay， polar bear numbers have dropped.

The Arctic — the polar bears’ habitat — is changing.Temperatures have gone up about 3 degrees Celsius （℃） since 1900.8.（ ） In 2017， it was 30 percent smaller than it was twenty-five years earlier.And each year， the remaining ice cover is melting faster and faster.
9.（ ） Certain gases in the atmosphere — “greenhouse gases” — hold in heat， keeping it from escaping into space.Higher temperatures bring changes in plant and animal life， in sources of food and water， and in rainfall and snowfall， floods and droughts.Habitats around the world are at risk.
A.They are built for the cold.
B.The ice cover is shrinking， too.
C.In the Arctic， winter used to come early.
D.Thousands of polar bears live in the Arctic.
E.By December， there was still barely any ice at all.
F.Recently they’ve been losing weight and becoming weaker.
G.The fact is that our entire planet is getting warmer， not just the Arctic.

When I was young， my mother was going to Florida to visit my grandmother.I begged her to take me with her.“I’ll take you， but remember，” my mother warned me，“Grandma is sick.” I had seen plenty of sick people before， so I figured it wouldn’t be a big deal.Besides， by the time we got to Florida， my grandma would probably be okay.Then we would have fun just as we used to.I remembered how excited I had felt the summer before when my grandma carried me on her shoulders down the streets.
Grandma was a great storyteller and her stories made me feel special whenever she told them.“Grandma， tell me a story，” I’d say， and she would always begin the story， “Once upon a time there was a boy named Billy ...” Every story started with a boy named after me.When I arrived at her house， my first words were going to be，“Grandma， tell me a story.”
When I got to Grandma’s house， she didn’t come out to meet me.Even after I ran up the steps，
she still didn’t come out to meet me.I went into her bedroom.Instantly， I was seized by terror and disgust， because what I saw in that room wasn’t my happy-go-lucky （乐天的） grandmother.It was a crumpled body， thin and weak.
That night as I lay in bed， I heard my grandma moaning （呻吟） in pain.It had the same effect on me as someone running fingernails across the blackboard.It was so annoying that I just wanted to tell her to stop.However， I didn’t and it continued all night.
A few weeks after we came home， my mother asked me whether it was all right if Grandma came to live with us.I said yes， but in reality I never wanted to see her again.Although my grandma lived with us for the next few months， I never went into her room.She couldn’t get out of bed.I didn’t have to see her.

Step 1 品教材课文 Step 2 析写作手法
An epidemic is the rapid spread of an infectious disease over a short period of time， causing a large number of deaths， the number of which differs for different diseases. Professor Jim Smith conducted a study to compare the bird flu epidemic which occurred in 1997 with other deadly epidemics in our history. He found that the earliest epidemics took place as early as 500 to 550 CE， which killed half of the population in that particular area.The same epidemic， called “The Black Death” returned in the 1330s in Asia and spread quickly to Europe. Some hundred years later， the Great Flu epidemic broke out in 1918， also known as the Spanish Flu， killing 50 million people. This was considered the most severe epidemic in human history. The 1997 bird flu which claimed over 100 lives was an adaptation of the Great Flu of 1918. At the start of the 21st century， there were two major epidemics： SARS and EVD.The more recently discovered SARS disease infected about 8，000 people. According to official records EVD has killed more than 11，310 people in West Africa alone. Globally， researchers are coming together to try to identify the causes for epidemics and help to find effective treatments. 【学语言】 1.词汇： compare ...with ...，as early as ...，break out， claim， find effective treatments 2.句式： （1）定语从句 ①...the number of which differs for different diseases. ②...which occurred in 1997 with other deadly epidemics in our history. ③...which killed half of the population in that particular area. ④...which claimed over 100 lives ... （2）非谓语动词 ①...causing a large number of deaths ... ②The same epidemic， called “The Black Death” ... ③...also known as the Spanish Flu， killing 50 million people. 【学结构】 1.流行病的定义； 2.简要介绍历史上的流行病； 3.共同寻求解决办法。

阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
The gene is often called the building block of life， because it is the smallest unit to carry information from one generation to another. Scientists working in the field of genetics are able to understand how one generation inherits important characteristics from the previous generation. But we are able to understand much more than merely why a particular family has a large number of red-haired children. We are also able to discover whether an individual is likely to live a long life， or suffer from particular diseases. This is called predictive genetics and the benefits of such research are many.
This description of the genetic code of the human being has long been the goal of scientists. Doctors are interested in this research， because of the possibility it would provide for treating long term illnesses. The treatment to those diseases could be greatly improved by early identification. There is also the possibility that an understanding of changes in gene order could be used to cure disease. Some researchers believe， for example， that genetic changes are responsible for many common diseases.
While no one doubts the advantages of gene mapping， it is also true that there is a dark side to all these knowledge. As with all scientific advances， the possibility exists that knowledge would be used to violate basic human rights. For example， you might be denied a job or a chance to move up in the company， because your genetic map indicates that you have a high probability of contracting a certain disease. The possibility that these would be used as a reason not to hire an employee or promote within the company is what worries people.
Many experts believe that the only way to address the risk is to pass national laws that prohibit discrimination. Such laws would forbid employers from failing to promote an employee or from dismissing an employee from the company merely because of genetic make-up. It’s clear that such laws will not remove genetic discrimination entirely， but they would greatly reduce such practices.

Step 1 品教材课文
An epidemic is the rapid spread of an infectious disease over a short
period of time， causing a large number of deaths， the number of which
differs for different diseases.
Professor Jim Smith conducted a study to compare the bird flu
epidemic which occurred in 1997 with other deadly epidemics in our
history. He found that the earliest epidemics took place as early as 500 to
550 CE， which killed half of the population in that particular area.The
same epidemic， called “The Black Death” returned in the 1330s in
Asia and spread quickly to Europe. Some hundred years later， the Great
Flu epidemic broke out in 1918， also known as the Spanish Flu， killing
50 million people. This was considered the most severe epidemic in
human history. The 1997 bird flu which claimed over 100 lives was an
adaptation of the Great Flu of 1918.
At the start of the 21st century， there were two major epidemics：
SARS and EVD. The more recently discovered SARS disease infected
about 8，000 people. According to official records EVD has killed more
than 11，310 people in West Africa alone.
Globally， researchers are coming together to try to identify the causes
for epidemics and help to find effective treatments.

阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
The gene is often called the building block of life， because it is the
smallest unit to carry information from one generation to another.
Scientists working in the field of genetics are able to understand how one
generation inherits important characteristics from the previous generation.
But we are able to understand much more than merely why a particular
family has a large number of red-haired children. We are also able to
discover whether an individual is likely to live a long life， or suffer from
particular diseases. This is called predictive genetics and the benefits of
such research are many.
This description of the genetic code of the human being has long been
the goal of scientists. Doctors are interested in this research， because of
the possibility it would provide for treating long term illnesses. The
treatment to those diseases could be greatly improved by early
identification. There is also the possibility that an understanding of
changes in gene order could be used to cure disease. Some researchers
believe， for example， that genetic changes are responsible for many
common diseases.
While no one doubts the advantages of gene mapping， it is also true
that there is a dark side to all these knowledge. As with all scientific
advances， the possibility exists that knowledge would be used to violate
basic human rights. For example， you might be denied a job or a chance
to move up in the company， because your genetic map indicates that you
have a high probability of contracting a certain disease. The possibility
that these would be used as a reason not to hire an employee or promote
within the company is what worries people.
Many experts believe that the only way to address the risk is to pass
national laws that prohibit discrimination. Such laws would forbid
employers from failing to promote an employee or from dismissing an
employee from the company merely because of genetic make-up. It’s
clear that such laws will not remove genetic discrimination entirely， but
they would greatly reduce such practices.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
When Andres Valencia starts drawing at school， his friends gather
round to watch.And they are not the only ones who have noticed his
talent.The 10-year-old has surprised the art world as Andres makes his
first global auction （拍卖） this month.
The Californian art prodigy （神童） first picked up a paintbrush
when he was five and now sells his pieces for tens of thousands of
dollars.Young Californian artist Andres Valencia， 10， has been called
“Little Picasso”.
He uses a stepladder to create his larger works and his talent was
spotted early by his parents.They encouraged his work， which is
influenced by Pablo Picasso， but just want him to enjoy painting.
“To be quite honest， we try not to talk too much about it in front of
him，” his father， Mr Valencia， said.“We certainly don’t refer to
him as a prodigy or anything like that.We just keep it simple with him.”
Mr Valencia said that he and his wife had resisted calls to homeschool
their son so that he could focus more on painting.“We want him to go to
school like a normal kid，” he said.“And because he’s 10， he’s
not like a lot of artists， they go to work for six， eight， 10 hours a day
painting.So he paints after school and on the weekends， but he also plays
with his friends.”
Andres earned global recognition at Miami Art Week last
December.The director Nick Korniloff said that experts were impressed
before they knew Andres’ age.Mr Korniloff said，“We’ve had
everybody attend our shows， all great celebrities and personalities， but
this little brought down the house.”
Mr Korniloff refused to predict what the primary school student’s
work may be worth to future investors but was certain it would last.“The
work holds the wall just as good as anything else I’ve seen in a long
career，” he said.

Polar bears are strong creatures， standing up to nine feet tall and
weighing up to one thousand pounds.5.（ ） Their snow-white coat
is thick， with a double layer of fur.Also， a layer of fat lies just under
their skin， keeping them extra warm.For months， polar bears have to
live off this fat， gained from winter feedings on the ice.When they’re
on land， they barely eat.
In early November 2016， the polar bears were still on land.There
was no sea ice on Hudson Bay.Weeks passed.6.（ ） So the polar
bears had to wait longer to return to the sea.
The warmer climate affected the polar bears in important ways.In the
1980s， Hudson Bay bears were bigger and rounder， well fed.7.
（ ） That’s because with fewer weeks on ice， their hunting season
has become shorter.They have less food.In Hudson Bay， polar bear
numbers have dropped.
In 2016， the water in Hudson Bay didn’t freeze until 12
December.That was very late.“Sea ice is finally forming，” one
scientist reported.“The polar bears are moving quickly offshore.”
The Arctic — the polar bears’ habitat — is changing.Temperatures
have gone up about 3 degrees Celsius （℃） since 1900.8.（ ） In
2017， it was 30 percent smaller than it was twenty-five years earlier.And
each year， the remaining ice cover is melting faster and faster.
9. （ ） Certain gases in the atmosphere — “greenhouse gases” —
hold in heat， keeping it from escaping into space.Higher temperatures
bring changes in plant and animal life， in sources of food and water，
and in rainfall and snowfall， floods and droughts.Habitats around the
world are at risk.
A. They are built for the cold.
B. The ice cover is shrinking， too.
C. In the Arctic， winter used to come early.
D. Thousands of polar bears live in the Arctic.
E. By December， there was still barely any ice at all.
F. Recently they’ve been losing weight and becoming weaker.
G. The fact is that our entire planet is getting warmer， not just the
Arctic.

It’s common knowledge that nothing is more important than
health.Here I’d like to recommend a TV program named Road to Health
to you.Launched by the Science and Education Channel of CCTV， Road
to Health focuses on raising people’s awareness of physical and mental
health.
To be frank， I have benefited enormously from the program.To
begin with， I acquired a lot of knowledge about hygiene and health，
which surely serves as a foundation for me to make a positive
change.More importantly， the experts’ guidance and practical tips have
encouraged me to choose a healthy lifestyle — to eat healthily and live
healthily.
My fellow students， let’s follow the road to health and walk on the
road to success！
Ⅵ.读后续写
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。
When I was young， my mother was going to Florida to visit my
grandmother.I begged her to take me with her.“I’ll take you， but
remember，” my mother warned me，“Grandma is sick.” I had seen
plenty of sick people before， so I figured it wouldn’t be a big
deal.Besides， by the time we got to Florida， my grandma would
probably be okay.Then we would have fun just as we used to.I
remembered how excited I had felt the summer before when my grandma
carried me on her shoulders down the streets.
Grandma was a great storyteller and her stories made me feel special
whenever she told them.“Grandma， tell me a story，” I’d say， and
she would always begin the story， “Once upon a time there was a boy
named Billy ...” Every story started with a boy named after me.When I
arrived at her house， my first words were going to be，“Grandma， tell
me a story.”
When I got to Grandma’s house， she didn’t come out to meet
me.Even after I ran up the steps， she still didn’t come out to meet me.I
went into her bedroom.Instantly， I was seized by terror and disgust，
because what I saw in that room wasn’t my happy-go-lucky （乐天的）
grandmother.It was a crumpled body， thin and weak.
That night as I lay in bed， I heard my grandma moaning （呻吟）
in pain.It had the same effect on me as someone running fingernails across
the blackboard.It was so annoying that I just wanted to tell her to
stop.However， I didn’t and it continued all night.
A few weeks after we came home， my mother asked me whether it
was all right if Grandma came to live with us.I said yes， but in reality I
never wanted to see her again.Although my grandma lived with us for the
next few months， I never went into her room.She couldn’t get out of
bed.I didn’t have to see her.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式作答。
One day， my grandma called me as I walked by her room.I
didn’t want to go.
I was about to run out of the room and leave the scene behind
forever when she began to tell a story.
参考范文：
One day， my grandma called me as I walked by her room.I didn’t
want to go. But she called me several times， so I had to go in.The
moment I entered the room， I smelled a strong smell of medicine mixed
with other smells.My grandmother lay in bed， her cheekbones high，
her cheeks sunken， and her face and hands wrinkled.Seeing this， I
couldn’t help stopping my steps.
I was about to run out of the room and leave the scene behind forever
when she began to tell a story.I burst into tears when I heard “There was
a boy named Billy ...”.I went over and sat by the bed， holding my
grandmother’s hand and listening to her story.Although her voice was
weak， it was enough to remind me of those happy days in the past.I
smiled at my grandmother and listened to her quietly.
