It is difficult for a doctor to help a person with a damaged brain. Without enough blood, the brain lives for only three to five minutes. More often the doctor can’t fix the damage. Sometimes they are afraid to try something to help because it is dangerous to work on the brain. The doctors might make the person worse if he operates on the brain.
Dr.Robert White, a famous professor and doctor, thinks he knows a way to help. He thinks doctors should make the brain very cold. If it is very cold, the brain can live without blood for 30 minutes. This gives the doctor a longer time to do something for the brain.
Dr. White tried his idea on 13 monkeys. First he taught them to do different jobs, then he operated on them. He made the monkeys’ blood go through a machine. The machine cooled the blood. Then the machine sent the blood back to the monkeys’ brains. When the brain’s temperature was 10℃, Dr. White stopped the blood to the brain. After 30 minutes he turned the blood back on. He warmed the blood again. After their operations the monkeys were like what they had been before. They were healthy and busy. Each one could still do the jobs the doctor had taught them.
5.The biggest difficulty in operating on the damaged brain is that________
the patients are often too nervous B. the time is too short for doctors
the damage is extremely hard to fix D. the blood-cooling machine might break down
6.The brain operation was made possible mainly by________
A. taking the blood out of the brain B. trying the operations on monkeys first
C. having the blood go through a machine D .lowering the brain’s temperature
7. With Dr .White’s new idea , the operation on the damaged brain can_______
A. help monkeys do different jobs B. keep the brain’s blood warm
C. keep the patient’s brain healthy D. last as long as 30 minutes
8.What is the right order of the steps in the operations?
a. send the cooled back to the brain b. stop the blood to the brain
c. have the blood cooled down d. operate on the brain
A. a, b , c, d B. c, b, d, a C. c , a , b, d D. b, c, d,. a
C
Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I’m not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s just the reality of how life is.
However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in addition to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing. To become great at certain things, it’ll require even more time, time that most people won’t put in.
This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don’t enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.
When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost. It’s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and there’s a huge chance that you’re wrong anyway.
Whatever you do, if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. If you’re not willing to put in the time and work, don’t expect to receive any rewards. Consistent, hard work won’t guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.
9. Paragraph 1 mainly talks about ______.
A. the meaning of success B. the reasons for success
C. the standards of success D. the importance of success
10. Successful people suggest doing what one loves because ______.
A. work makes one feel pain B. one tends to enjoy his work
C. it takes a lot of time to succeed D. one gives up his work easily
11. What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A. People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.
B. Successful people like to show their great skills.
C. People need to achieve success at the cost of life.
D. It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.
12. What is the main theme of the passage?
A. Having a goal is vital to success. B. Being good is different from being great.
C. Luck, talent and family help to achieve success. D. One cannot succeed without time and practice.
D
While CCTV’s educational show Animal World is well known, few big screen wildlife documentaries have been made by China’s film industry.
But Born in China, which came out on Aug 2, may be important for Chinese filmmakers who want to get into nature -themed films. The movie, directed by Chinese filmmaker Lu Chuan, was shot in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and shows the animals’ lives during different seasons.
Born in China not only brings to audiences the lives of animals that are rarely seen in the wild—giant pandas, snow leopards, and golden monkeys, but also shows Chinese traditional culture.
A symbol of China, the giant panda is both black and white. Its body is thought to show yin and yang, which ancient Chinese ideas were based on. The panda’s gentle nature shows how yin and yang lead to peace. It can be seen in the film when a panda mother guides her baby to look for independence and explore the world.
Unlike the shy pandas, monkeys always have strong personalities. The Monkey King in China’s most famous novel Journey to the West has many conflicting traits(特点). It stands for not only impatience but also cleverness and energy. Born in China follows a 2-year-old golden monkey who leaves his family, but then returns and understands the meaning of responsibility.
Just as the golden monkey, a mother snow leopard also faces difficulty in raising her babies in the wild. The leopards, known for their rapid attacks and quick footwork(脚步), have inspired a form of pictographic(象形拳) in Shaolin martial arts(武术).
“Born in China is a means to show off Chinese traditional culture,” director Lu told the reporter. “Chinese people have learned a lot from wild animals since ancient times. This is why I shot this nature -themed documentary.”
13. How is Born in China special according to the article?
A. It shows Chinese traditional culture through the lives of animals.
B. It’s considered the best nature-themed film to come out of China.
C. It’s the first big screen wildlife documentary ever made in China.
D. It shows audiences the lives of rare animals.
14. We can learn from the article that in Born in China, _______.
A. the story of the giant pandas shows the importance of exploring the world
B. the story of the golden monkeys was inspired by the Monkey King
C. the stories show how animals grow up to be independent
D. the story about snow leopards shows what people can learn from animals
15. What may be the best title for the text?
A. The stories of 3 animal families B. Symbols of China
C. Wildlife born in China D. Nature shows culture
16.What does the underlined words “ responsibility” mean in the fifth paragraph?
A. safety B. duty C. union D. reserve
E
As the parent of two teenagers who have played multiple sports over the years, I’ve seen the good, the bad, the ugly and the absolutely cruel. I realize
However, when I think about the value of sports and why my kids continue to play sports teach kids lessons to become successful adults. Through sports, kids learn how to work in teams, how to take risk, how to challenge themselves to be better, and how to behave when they lose—and when they win.
Whether kids play soccer, baseball, football, or cheer, they learn they are part of a team where one person depends on another. When my son plays baseball, he’s not the only one who needs to play well; he depends on his defense to make the plays in the field. When my daughter plays tennis, she depends on her partner to cut off the ball at the net and win the point, and the tennis team depends on each person in order to win the overall match. Sports also teach children to trust and respect the decisions of someone who understands how the entire team needs to work in order to succeed.
Sadly, though, youth sports have suffered from the “winning isn’t everything; it’s the only thing” attitude. They have become too much of a reflection of professional sports. Winning is a happy result, but the lessons from losing are even more important. When my daughter loses tennis match, her coach reminds her that you learn more from losing than from winning. Losing makes you focus on improving your skills and your strategy. We’re going to learn from our mistakes and not repeat them.
I believe that participating in youth sports is much more than building a sound body winning a scholarship to college. Sports are the best way to shape and build more self-motivate and happier children and help them become more self-motivated and happier adults.
17. What is the authors attitude to youth sports?
A. Critical. B. Positive. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
18. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. What sports the author’s kids take. B. What the authors kids do in sports.
C. How sports benefit the authors kids. D. How the authors kids continue to play sports.
19. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Teenagers don’t have to win every time. B. Winning is the only goal for teen players.
C. Teenagers should work together to succeed.
D. Winning is not the most important in sports.
20. What is the best title for the text?
A. Youth Sports Build Better Adults B. Teenagers Suffer from Youth Sports
C. Losing Brings More than Winning Does D. Teenagers Perform Better than Adults in Sports
第二节 七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page. When the son read it, the following words were written in the diary:“ Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa when a crow suddenly landed on the window edge.

Paragraph 1:
After reading the diary, the son was filled with tears. He began to reflect on the days when he used to sit together with his father. His father would patiently answer the same question 23 times without feeling irritation while his father asked him the same question just four times! The son thought to himself: If I am at my father’s age, how will my son look at me? Will he think of me as a burden? Will he shout at me because of my poor sight, poor hearing or poor understanding?Paragraph 2: Feeling ashamed, the son got down on his knees before his father. He made an apology to his father, begging his father to forgive him for his bad behavior. He said this aloud, “I promise to make you happy forever, Dad. It is you who have cared for me ever since I was a little child, showering your selfless affection on me. You worked hard to make money so that I could afford to go to university. You have always showered me with love. I will take care of you in the best way no matter how you behave” (172词)
