“My kids really understand solar and earth-heat energy,” says a second-grade teacher in Saugus , California , “Some of them are building solar collectors for their energy course.” These young scientists are part of City Building Educational Program (CBEP) , a particular program for kindergarten through twelfth grade that uses the stages of city planning to teach basic reading ,writing and math skills , and more .
The children don’t just plan any city . They map and analyze (分析)the housing , energy , and transportation requirements of their own district and foretell its needs in 100 years . With the aid of an architect （建筑师）who visits the classroom once a week , they invent new ways to meet these needs and build models of their creations . “Designing buildings of the future gives children a lot of freedom,” says the teacher who developed this program. “They are able to use their own rich imagination and inventions without fear of blame , because there are no wrong answers in a future context . In fact , as the class enters the final model-building stage of the program , an elected “official” and “planning group” make all the design decisions for the model city , and the teacher steps back and becomes an adviser .”
CBEP is a set of activities, games, and imitations that teach the basic steps necessary for problem-solving ; observing , analyzing, working out possible answers , and judging them based on the children’s own standards .
63．The Program is designed .
A．to direct kids to build solar collectors
B．to train young scientists for city planning
C．to develop children’s problem-solving abilities
D．to help young architects know more about designing
64．An architect pays a weekly visit to the classroom .
A．to find out kids’ creative idea . B．to discuss with the teacher
C．to give children lectures D．to help kids with their program
65．Who is the designer of the program
A．An official . B．An architect . C．a teacher . D．a scientist .
66．The children feel free in the program because .
A．they can design future buildings themselves
B．they have new ideas and rich imagination
C．they are given enough time to design models
D．they need not worry about making mistakes
D
Everyone should visit a lighthouse at least once .
The most important reason for such a visit is to realize how our ancestors (祖先) battled nature with the basic tools they had . They had only basic ways of creating light , and yet they found a way of using this simple technology in isolated (孤零零的) places to save ships from hitting rocks .
Secondly , visiting lighthouses will help us to understand the lives of lighthouse keepers .By their very nature , lighthouses were built on some rocks or cliffs . Thus , the lighthouse keepers often lived lonely lives . To walk around their small home , and imagine the angry storm outside beating against the walls , is to take a step towards understanding the lives they had.
The reasons for a visit to a lighthouse are not all so backward-looking in time . It is true that lighthouses were built in out-of-the –way places . But on a pleasant sunny summer day. This very isolation has a natural beauty that many people will love to experience . Therefore, with the gentle waves touching all round the lighthouse . the visitor is likely to think it is a world preferable to the busy and noisy modern life.
Another reason for considering a visit is that the lighthouses themselves can be very attractive buildings . Mankind could often not be content just to put up a basic structure . but felt the need . even in such an isolated place , to build with an artistic touch . The result is a view for tired eyes to enjoy .
Finally , lighthouses have a romantic attraction , summed up by the image of the oil-skin coated keeper climbing his winding stairs to take care of the light to warn ships and save lives .
67．What is the reason to look back into the past of a lighthouse
A．To escape from the busy and noisy city .
B．To look for the tools used by our ancestors .
C．To experience the natural beauty of a lighthouse .
D．To learn about the living condition of lighthouse keepers .
68．The underlined phrase “out-of-the-way” in Paragraph of means .
A．far-away . B．dangerous C．ancient D．secret
69．Lighthouses were often built with an artistic touch .
A．to attract visitors B．to guide passing ships
C．to give a pleasant sight D．to remember lighthouse keepers
70．How many reasons are mentioned for a visit to a lighthouse
A．Three . B．Four . C．Five . D．Six .
E
In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition . Some value it highly . believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity . Others say that competition is bad ; that it sets one person against another ; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people .
I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied (依赖)on how well they performed at tennis and other skills .For them , playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs . In their single-minded pursuit ( 追求)of success , the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten .
However . while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed , others take an opposite attitude .In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players , they strongly blame competition . Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society . Teaching these young people . I often observe in them a desire to fail . They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success . By not trying , they always have an excuse : “I may have lost . but it doesn’t matter because I really didn’t try . “What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot . Such a loss would be a measure of their worth . Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves . Both are based on the mistaken belief that one’s self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others . Both are afraid of not being valued . Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve (缓解) can we discover a new meaning in competition .
71．What does this passage mainly talk about
A．Competition helps to set up self-respect .
B．Opinions about competition are different among people
C．Competition is harmful to personal quality development .
D．Failures are necessary experiences in competition
72．Why do some people favor competition according to the passage
A．It pushes society forward . B．It builds up a sense of duty .
C．It improves personal abilities . D．It encourages individual efforts
73．The underlined phrase “the most vocal” in Paragraph 3 means .
A．those who try their best to win
B．those who value competition most highly
C．those who are against competition most strongly
D．those who rely on others most for success
74．What is the similar belief of the true competitors and those with a “desire to fail”
A．One’s worth lies in his performance compared with others’ .
B．One’s success in competition needs great efforts .
C．One’s achievement is determined by his particular skills .
D．One’s success is based on how hard he has tried .
75．Which point of view may the author agree to
A．Every effort should be paid back .
B．Competition should be encouraged .
C．Winning should be a life-and-death matter .
D．Fear of failure should be removed in competition

I’m very glad to be invited to the English summer camp.
I prefer to go in July because I’ll have to prepare myself for the new school term in August. It seems all the activities you offer are attractive and meaningful. But I’d like to attend the English lectures, from which I can get more information on British and American culture. With the coming of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, more and more foreigners are eager to know about China. So I hope to teach foreigners Chinese and spread Chinese culture.
It’s been a dream for me to visit Beijing. Could you organize a tour around the city during the camp
Thank you very much.
Yours truly,

“My kids really understand solar and earth-heat energy,” says a second-grade teacher in Saugus , California , “Some of them are building solar collectors for their energy course.” These young scientists are part of City Building Educational Program (CBEP) , a particular program for kindergarten through twelfth grade that uses the stages of city planning to teach basic reading ,writing and math skills , and more .
The children don’t just plan any city . They map and analyze (分析)the housing , energy , and transportation requirements of their own district and foretell its needs in 100 years . With the aid of an architect （建筑师）who visits the classroom once a week , they invent new ways to meet these needs and build models of their creations . “Designing buildings of the future gives children a lot of freedom,” says the teacher who developed this program. “They are able to use their own rich imagination and inventions without fear of blame , because there are no wrong answers in a future context . In fact , as the class enters the final model-building stage of the program , an elected “official” and “planning group” make all the design decisions for the model city , and the teacher steps back and becomes an adviser .”
CBEP is a set of activities, games, and imitations that teach the basic steps necessary for problem-solving ; observing , analyzing, working out possible answers , and judging them based on the children’s own standards .

A．to direct kids to build solar collectors

Everyone should visit a lighthouse at least once .
The most important reason for such a visit is to realize how our ancestors (祖先) battled nature with the basic tools they had . They had only basic ways of creating light , and yet they found a way of using this simple technology in isolated (孤零零的) places to save ships from hitting rocks .
Secondly , visiting lighthouses will help us to understand the lives of lighthouse keepers .By their very nature , lighthouses were built on some rocks or cliffs . Thus , the lighthouse keepers often lived lonely lives . To walk around their small home , and imagine the angry storm outside beating against the walls , is to take a step towards understanding the lives they had.
The reasons for a visit to a lighthouse are not all so backward-looking in time . It is true that lighthouses were built in out-of-the –way places . But on a pleasant sunny summer day. This very isolation has a natural beauty that many people will love to experience . Therefore, with the gentle waves touching all round the lighthouse . the visitor is likely to think it is a world preferable to the busy and noisy modern life.
Another reason for considering a visit is that the lighthouses themselves can be very attractive buildings . Mankind could often not be content just to put up a basic structure . but felt the need . even in such an isolated place , to build with an artistic touch . The result is a view for tired eyes to enjoy .
Finally , lighthouses have a romantic attraction , summed up by the image of the oil-skin coated keeper climbing his winding stairs to take care of the light to warn ships and save lives .
67．What is the reason to look back into the past of a lighthouse
A．To escape from the busy and noisy city .
B．To look for the tools used by our ancestors .
C．To experience the natural beauty of a lighthouse .
D．To learn about the living condition of lighthouse keepers .

A．far-away . B．dangerous C．ancient D．secret
69．Lighthouses were often built with an artistic touch .
A．to attract visitors B．to guide passing ships
C．to give a pleasant sight D．to remember lighthouse keepers
70．How many reasons are mentioned for a visit to a lighthouse
A．Three . B．Four . C．Five . D．Six .

In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition . Some value it highly . believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity . Others say that competition is bad ; that it sets one person against another ; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people .
I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied (依赖)on how well they performed at tennis and other skills .For them , playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs . In their single-minded pursuit ( 追求)of success , the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten .
However . while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed , others take an opposite attitude .In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players , they strongly blame competition . Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society . Teaching these young people . I often observe in them a desire to fail . They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success . By not trying , they always have an excuse : “I may have lost . but it doesn’t matter because I really didn’t try . “What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot . Such a loss would be a measure of their worth . Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves . Both are based on the mistaken belief that one’s self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others . Both are afraid of not being valued . Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve (缓解) can we discover a new meaning in competition .
71．What does this passage mainly talk about
A．Competition helps to set up self-respect .
B．Opinions about competition are different among people
C．Competition is harmful to personal quality development .
D．Failures are necessary experiences in competition
72．Why do some people favor competition according to the passage
A．It pushes society forward . B．It builds up a sense of duty .
C．It improves personal abilities . D．It encourages individual efforts
73．The underlined phrase “the most vocal” in Paragraph 3 means .
A．those who try their best to win
B．those who value competition most highly
C．those who are against competition most strongly
D．those who rely on others most for success
74．What is the similar belief of the true competitors and those with a “desire to fail”
A．One’s worth lies in his performance compared with others’ .
B．One’s success in competition needs great efforts .
C．One’s achievement is determined by his particular skills .
D．One’s success is based on how hard he has tried .
75．Which point of view may the author agree to
A．Every effort should be paid back .
B．Competition should be encouraged .
C．Winning should be a life-and-death matter .
D．Fear of failure should be removed in competition

Dear Sir or Madame,
I’m very glad to be invited to the English summer camp.
I prefer to go in July because I’ll have to prepare myself for the new school term in August. It seems all the activities you offer are attractive and meaningful. But I’d like to attend the English lectures, from which I can get more information on British and American culture. With the coming of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, more and more foreigners are eager to know about China. So I hope to teach foreigners Chinese and spread Chinese culture.
It’s been a dream for me to visit Beijing. Could you organize a tour around the city during the camp
Thank you very much.
Yours truly,
Li Ping
