What is the most fun you can have in 21 hours and 23 minutes?On 15 October,2003,Yang Liwei answered this question.His voyage in space took him 600,000 kilometres in orbit,around the Earth 14 times,in just over 21 hours.It made him China’s first astronaut in space.He had worked towards this achievement for many years.
Born in 1965,Yang had wanted to fly since he was a young boy.His friends and teachers from Suizhong in north-east of Liaoning Province have all said that he loved science and technology from a young age.He always had a strong desire to learn how to fly.His dream was encouraged by his parents as well as his older sister and younger brother.
In 1983,he joined the army,and went to flight school.He graduated in 1987 and became a pilot.In 1998,he applied to be a member of Project 921,which is now called Shenzhou.He was one of the only 14 selected from 1,500 candidates.The team spent the next five years being trained.They not only studied all the subjects required to be an astronaut,but also learnt survival skills and all about how spaceships and rockets are built.Yang scored among the very top in everything the group studied.
In September 2003,only three out of the 14 candidates were picked for the Chinese space adventure,and Yang was one of them.He took all kinds of tests to prove he was fit for this important task.Although Yang did not get the best scores on every single test,it was his high scores on the psychological tests that finally won him the status of China’s first astronaut.Yang was described by his superiors as hard-working and always in control of himself.Because of these qualities,they were optimistic he would be successful.
In the end,Yang was indeed a success.His name will go down in history with those of Yuri Gagarin and Alan Shepard.The people of China can be proud of Yang Liwei,and young people all over the world can look up to him as an example of a man who managed to live his dream.

Life can bring us down from time to time.At some point,you may find yourself in what you will consider as your darkest hour.As you try to find your way out of that bad situation,you should try to remind yourself that there is still a reason to be grateful.
If you look at your situation now and compare it with someone who is in much deeper trouble than you,I am sure that you’ll find something to be thankful for.We all have our share of problems.But complaining about them so much only makes us blind about the fact that there are the miracles that happen around us every day.
When all your needs are provided,then you should be content and happy.If you have a roof over your head,some decent (得体的) clothes to wear,enough food on the table,a comfortable place to sleep,clean water to drink and you are free to make your own choices then you should be happy and grateful.Many people all around the world,especially those who are at war or those in very poor countries would give anything to be in your conditions.
Even if you lose all your money or possessions and your heart is broken for some reason,as long as you are still alive,then everything material you have lost can be regained again.If you have a few good friends who will be there to support or help you,then be glad because true friends are hard to find.As long as you have someone to love and someone to love you back,then you are a very fortunate person.Remember to be patient and trust that things will get better.

Katherine Johnson,a brilliant mathematician at NASA (美国宇航局),began working on the space program in the 1950s.Many of NASA’s first missions were made possible by her amazing calculations(计算).
As a child,she loved to count.Her father placed great importance on education and insisted all four of his children go to college,working overtime to pay for it.Johnson said this atmosphere was important to her success.“I was always around people who were learning something.I liked to learn,” she said.
Johnson graduated from high school at 14 and college at 18.In 1953,Johnson started to work for NASA,doing the math that powered engineers’ work.Then,because of her outstanding talent,she was moved to work on rockets with an all-male flight research team.As for Johnson,her calculations contributed to many of NASA’s most important projects.In 1961,with the help of Johnson’s work,Alan Shepherd became the first American to go into space.Johnson also lent her unbelievable talent to the success of the Apollo 13,which had trouble getting back to earth.She worked hard to calculate a safe path back to Earth for the astronauts.
Johnson retired in 1986,but her huge contribution to the space program has only been reaching the public attention for the past few years.Part of that is because,as she is the first to admit,science is based on collaboration.“I never took any credit because we always worked as a team,it was never just one person,” she said in a 2010 interview.
Earlier this year,NASA named a new data center after her.She was also given a Silver Snoopy award,which recognises “outstanding performance,contributing to flight safety and mission success.”
28.The author explains Johnson’s help to NASA by .?
A.giving reasons
B.showing numbers
C.providing examples
D.comparing differences
29.What does the underlined word in Paragraph 4 mean?
A.Experience. B.Teamwork.
C.Research. D.Talent.
30.What can we infer from the passage about Johnson?
A.She travelled to space with the Apollo 13.
B.She lived a rich life when she was young.
C.She has been widely-known since her retirement.
D.She used to be the only lady in the research team.
31.What is the passage mainly about?
A.Johnson’s great contribution to NASA.
B.Respectable awards honored to Johnson.
C.The importance of education for Johnson.
D.NASA’s achievements in exploring space.
D
I enjoyed English,biology,and chemistry at school,but which one should I choose to study at university?I did not know the answer until one evening when I sat down at the computer to do some research on great women of China.
By chance I came across an article about a doctor called Lin Qiaozhi,a specialist in women’s diseases.She lived from 1901 to 1983.It seemed that she had been very busy in her chosen career,travelling abroad to study as well as writing books and articles.One of them caught my eye.It was a small book explaining how to cut the death rate from having and caring for babies.She gave some simple rules to follow for keeping babies clean,healthy and free from sickness.Why did she write that?Who were the women that Lin Qiaozhi thought needed this advice?I looked carefully at the text and realised that it was intended for women in the countryside.Perhaps if they had an emergency they could not reach a doctor.
Suddenly it hit me how difficult it was for a woman to get medical training at that time.That was a generation when girls’ education was always placed second to boys’.Was she so much cleverer than anyone else?Further reading made me realise that it was hard work and determination as well as her gentle nature that got her into medical school.What made her succeed later on was the kindness and consideration she showed to all her patients.There was story after story of how Lin Qiaozhi,tired after a day’s work,went late at night to deliver a baby for a poor family who could not pay her.?
By now I could not wait to find out more about her.I discovered that Lin Qiaozhi had devoted her whole life to her patients and had chosen not to have a family of her own.Instead she made sure that about 50,000 babies were safely delivered.By this time I was very excited.Why not study at medical college like Lin Qiaozhi and carry on her good work?It was still not too late for me to improve my studies,prepare for the university entrance examinations,and....
32.The writer was a when she wrote this article.?
A.nurse
B.college student
C.high school student
D.student on computer
33.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 is intended to show .?
A.that Lin Qiaozhi often worked late into the night
B.that Lin Qiaozhi was a specialist in delivering babies
C.that Lin Qiaozhi often treated her patients without pay
D.Lin Qiaozhi’s kindness and consideration to her patients
34.From the passage,we see that .?
A.it was Lin Qiaozhi’s success that made her famous
B.the writer is determined to follow Lin Qiaozhi’s career
C.Lin Qiaozhi wasn’t able to go to school when she was a child
D.the writer regrets not having chosen to study at medical college
35.The writer mainly wants to in this passage.?
A.share with us the information about Lin Qiaozhi
B.show her determination to go to medical university
C.show it is convenient to find out information on the Internet
D.show the difficulty in choosing what kind of university to go to

When it comes to the question how to encourage students to achieve success,teachers may offer different answers based on their own teaching experience.Here are some suggestions.
Post your expectations around the room.
If a student does not understand what teachers expect from him,he will have a much greater chance of failure.From the first day of class your expectations should be clear.Many teachers post their class rules for all to see. 36 You can select posters with encouraging words that explain your expectations.?
37 ?
Make sure that you do not show any biases (偏见) towards students’ learning.If you believe that the students in your class can’t learn a subject well,they probably won’t. 38 Be careful about the words you use and make sure that you don’t make students feel that you doubt their abilities.You must believe strongly and sincerely that your students can and will learn what you are teaching them.?
Allow students the space to learn on their own.
39 While you can provide guidance,as the year goes on,you should pull back and give them more responsibility for their own learning.You should avoid jumping right in and helping students by simply providing them with the answers to their questions. 40 ?
A.Pay special attention to slower students.
B.Have a right attitude to students’ abilities.
C.It is also a great idea to put up your expectations.
D.A healthy teacher-parent relationship is necessary.
E.The way a teacher treats students is very important.

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。
One summer when I was ten years old,my brother and I received a wonderful gift—tennis rackets (球拍) and balls.We had never had the opportunity to play tennis,so this was exciting.However,there was one problem—the small town we lived in did not have a tennis court (网球场).
One Saturday morning my brother said,“Hey,I’ve got an idea.Let’s take our tennis rackets and balls to the school and hit the balls against the school building.”
“Great idea!Let’s go,” I agreed,not realizing what a lesson we would learn.
When we got to the school ground,no one was around,so we began hitting our balls against the side of the building.“I’ll hit it the first time,” my brother suggested,“then you hit it the next time.We’ll hit it back and forth to each other.” So we began taking turns hitting the ball,getting more confident with each hit.Actually,we became pretty good at returning the ball and we were hitting the ball higher and faster each time.Suddenly,the unexpected thing happened—the ball got out of control and went crashing through one of the upstairs windows,leaving lots of broken glass on the ground.We looked around and no one was in sight except there was a guard sitting there over a distance.
Quietly,I asked,“Now what should I do?”
“Well,” my brother answered,“no one saw us,except that old man down there.And he probably can’t see this far.”
“He probably doesn’t know who we are anyway... Let’s go home,” I added.
As we picked up the rest of our balls and went home,we discussed whether to tell Mom and Dad what had happened.Would we be punished for our mistakes?Would every penny we had saved go to pay for the window?Or just keep it a secret?We thought about all these things all the way.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
But that decision was made the moment we walked into the house.
On Monday,my brother and I went to school.

答案C
Healthy relationships allow you to express your individuality,bring out the best in both of you,and encourage growth.Especially if you are in a new relationship,it’s best to set a foundation for a positive and healthy relationship from the start.There are two pieces of advice on it.
The first one,speak up.Don’t expect your partner to be able to read your mind or “figure it out”.If you have a need or want to express something,you need to communicate it yourself.It’s not fair to you or your partner when you don’t communicate your needs.Likewise,don’t hold in the things that bother you.If you don’t know how to start a conversation,say,“There’s something on my mind and I’d like it if you listened.” You can also say,“Something is bothering me and I feel like we should talk about it.”
The second one,listen intently.Part of a healthy relationship is knowing when to talk and when to listen.Develop your listening skills by not interrupting and letting your partner finish their thoughts and feelings.Truly listen,and don’t try to come up with a response while your partner is talking.Use active listening skills by reflecting the content and emotions of what your partner is saying.

答案C
M:Hi,Susan.Wow!Where did you get all of this stuff?
W:I bought it.And the widescreen computer...and my new DVD player.Here,let me show you my television.You can really rock the house with this one.
M:But where did you get the money to buy all this?You didn’t borrow money from Mom and Dad again,did you?
W:Of course not.I got it with my student credit card.
M:A student credit card?How in the world did you get one of these?
W:I got an application in the mail.Times are changing,and having a credit card helps you build a credit rating,control spending,and even buy things that you can’t pay with cash...
M:I don’t want to hear it.It sounds you’ve spent yourself in a hole.Anyway,student credit cards just lead to impulse spending...as I can see here.And the interest rates of student credit cards are usually sky-high,and if you miss a payment,the rates,well,just jump! Let’s sit down and talk about how you’re going to pay things back,and maybe we can come up with a budget that will help you get out of this mess.That’s the least I can do.

【语篇语法填空】
56.being 考查非谓语动词。空格前面是介词about,后面的动词应使用v.-ing形式,因此应填being。
57.and 考查前后句的语意逻辑关系。结合前后句可知,此处是并列关系,故填并列连词and。
58.disappointed 考查词性转换之动词变为形容词。本句的主语是some of them,此处and连接两个并列成分,再结合前面的形容词anxious可知,此处也应该填一个形容词。故此处用disappointed表示他们中有些人感到失望。
59.to 考查固定短语中的介词。此处是一个固定短语next to,意为“挨着”。
60.caught 考查时态。结合上下文的时态,全文以一般过去时为主,同时分析句意“一个骑自行车的男孩儿吸引了我的注意”可知,应填caught。
61.to stop 考查非谓语动词。refuse后接动词作宾语时,要用其不定式形式,即refuse to do sth“拒绝做某事”。
62.riding 考查非谓语动词。根据空格前面的kept可知,此处是keep doing sth结构,意为“继续做某事”。故后面应使用v.-ing形式,因此需将ride变成riding。
63.Did 考查一般疑问句式的使用。分析语境,此处指司机问“有人在上一站丢失手提箱吗?”。这是一个问句,同时丢失东西的动作已经发生,应用一般过去时,因此填Did。
64.me/mine 考查代词。此题答案不唯一,要根据语境仔细揣摩。此处的It如果指前面的suitcase的话,那么此空需要使用名词性物主代词mine,表示“那个箱子是我的”;如果指前面的anyone的话,那么此空需要用I的宾格形式me,表示“是我在上一站丢失了手提箱”。
65.suddenly 考查词性转换之形容词变为副词。由空格后面的动词became可知,此处应用sudden的副词形式来修饰动词,因此填suddenly。

But that decision was made the moment we walked into the house.As we were about to tell Mom what had happened,she asked first.Gathering the courage,we told her.“Oh,my goodness!” my mother said.After a short while,Dad came up and said,“Well,the first thing on Monday,you two have to talk to the headmaster and admit your mistake.You will probably have to pay for the window,but that is what you two should do.”
On Monday,my brother and I went to school.With our hearts beating wildly,we went to the headmaster and told the whole story.Smiling,he told us that he had known it from the school guard,and he was glad we were there.He said the school would repair the window,so we needn’t worry.“I am proud of you,” he continued.We felt proud too and learned it was good to be honest.
