24.(6分)A well﹣known poem by Tang dynasty poet Du Mu tells of a sad scene in early April: "Rains fall heavily as Qingming comes,and passers﹣by with lowered spirits go."
This scene takes place on Tomb Sweeping Day,also known as Qingming Festival.Tomb Sweeping Day is a traditional Chinese festival.It began in the Zhou dynasty,over 2500 years ago.Chinese people celebrate it to remember and honor their ancestors.This year,it falls on April 4.Tomb Sweeping Day became a public holiday in the Chinese mainland in 2008.People have one day off for that day.
On this day,families bring flowers,food and wine to the grave sites(墓地)of their ancestors.They place cakes,fruits in front of the graves and some may burn joss paper,as money for the dead.After that,they sweep the tombs and cherish(懷念)the memories of their dead family members.
Tomb Sweeping Day gives us a chance to show respect to our ancestors and family members who have passed away and show that we miss them.This tradition shows that family values are an important part of Chinese culture.
Tomb Sweeping Day is also the beginning of the time for gardening and outdoor activities in China.Families often get together for outings or fly kites at this time.

(1)The Chinese meaning of the underlined word "passers﹣by" is    .
A.行人
B.陌生人
C.故人
D.古代人
(2)Tomb Sweeping Day is celebrated for people to    .

A.People bring many things to the grave sites.

25.(8分)For as long as we can remember,one of the most popular ways parents use to punish their children has been the "time out".
It seems that it is a good idea:the child sits on his own to reflect(反思) on what he has done.Then,when the time is up,he will apologize and learn from the mistake.
However,just because it's something that's been done for years,that doesn't mean it is the right thing to do.In fact,very often,children don't sit nicely and think about what they've done.Instead,they need to be told a few (or many) times to go back to their places and stay quiet They are not reflecting on why they are in the "time out" at all.More likely than not,they're probably just really angry,and so are the parents.In the end,both the parents and the children make each other unhappy,or even angry.
What can parents do to change this situation?You may have already heard of things like peaceful parenting(育兒)and gentle parenting.These focus on the relationship between parent and child by building trust and love.So,instead of starting a "time our",try something called "time in".A "time in" needs both the parent and the child to stay close until both get calm.After that,the parent and the child can discuss what happened and solve the problem together.If the child can make changes,everyone can then move on.
As we all know,punishment and violence (暴力) seldom work and will never teach the children what the right way to act is.A "time in" can be the great time for the children to learn through mistakes.
Kids learn how to build their emotional and social skills through difficult situations.So,instead of punishing hem for acting their age,we can use chances to teach and guide them to a place of learning A "time in" may lake more time,but it does work.

(1)During a "time out",a child is told to    .
A.stay outside
B.make a promise
C.sit alone and reflect
D.return to school
(2)In the writers' opinion,a "time out"     .
A.is becoming more popular
B.doesn't always work
C.should be parents' first choice
D.takes too much time
(3)When a child has done something wrong,the writer suggests that    .
A both teachers and parents discuss bow to solve the problem
B.parents try something called "time in" instead of "time out"
C.the child say sorry to his or her parents and learn from mistakes
D.the child stay at home and reflect until he never makes mistakes
(4)The writer tells us punishment    works.
A.sometimes
B.usually
C.seldom
D.suddenly
26.(8分)What would you do if you had trouble seeing clearly?You would probably go to an eye doctor who might give you glasses.For many people around the world,however,such a way isn't that simple.
The World Health Organization reports that glasses can help one billion people in the world.Yet places like Ghana have only one eye doctor every 8 million people. This makes glasses almost impossible to get Joshua Silver,a teacher at Oxford University,however,may have solved the problem.
Mr Silver has developed liquid (液體)﹣filled glasses that users can adjust (調(diào)整) by themselves without seeing a doctor!The lenses (鏡片) are filled with oil.Using a dial on the glasses,the user changes the amount of oil.This changes the strength (度數(shù)) of the lens.After the user finds the right strength,be then fixes the lens.
Results show that among those who have tied the glasses,around 80% are satisfied.Mr Silver's goal is for everyone who still needs glasses to have such glasses as soon as possible.With a little more effort,Mr Silver thinks that his goal might be achieved in the near future.

(1)The underlined word "This" in the second paragraph means    .
A.glasses can help many people
B.Mr Silver has solved the problem
C.there are many people in need of glasses
D.there are not enough eye doctors
(2)The third paragraph is mainly about    .
A.who the new glasses are used by
B.how the new glasses are used
C.why the new glasses were made
D.where the new glasses were invented
(3)We can know from the passage that    .
A.the new glasses can do good to large numbers of people
B the new glasses must be adjusted by eye doctors
C.oil is not necessary for the new glasses
D glasses are easy to get everywhere all over the world
(4)What does Mr Silver think of the new glasses?    
A.He thinks they're the best of all.
B.He's completely uncertain about them.
C.He is worried about their future.
D.He thinks they have a bright future.
27.(6分) Do you ever feel like your thoughts are going around in circles?One minute,you're thinking about your homework.The next minute ,you're thinking about your plans for the weekend.
Is it possible for us to slow our thoughts down or even stop them completely?It depends on your definition(定義)of "thinking",according to Michael Halassa,a researcher at MIT,US.We basically go through each day in one of the two states(狀態(tài))—we either realize that we are thinking or we don't.Our brains won't stop thinking completely until we die.
"The brain never actually stops 'thinking' in a broader sense.Most thoughts are actually in the background without us noticing them and there's not really a way to turn these things off." Halassa said.Human brains can unconsciously process(無意識地處理)about 11 million pieces of information per second,according to Forbes.
You can compare this to how a computer works.Even when you aren't using your computer while it's turned on,it is still running operations "in the background".Your computer,much like your brain,is constantly "thinking",even if you're not actively using it.
Some researchers have referred to this phenomenon(現(xiàn)象)as "thought﹣chatter".It describes all kinds of thoughts that pop(出現(xiàn))in and out of our mind at different times during the day,according to Steve Taylor,a psychology lecturer.
Some thought﹣chatter can be enjoyable,such as daydreaming.Albert Einstein came up with his famous theory of relativity(相對論)while daydreaming at work. "But too much though﹣chatter can make us feel too anxious or worried," Taylor said. "Meditation(冥想)can help us clean up some of this thought﹣chatter.
(1)The writer introduces the topic to readers by    .
A.explaining the topic
B.reminding readers of a situation
C.making a conclusion
D.giving the answer to a question
(2)Michael Halassa thinks    .
A.humans can control their brain completely
B.humans can always realize their brain is working
C.human brains always process information consciously
D.humans sometimes don't realize their brain is working
(3)Which is TRUE about "thought﹣chatter"?    
A.It can be reduced by meditation.
B.It is the background noises we hear.
C.It always helps us come up with new ideas.
D.It is considered as enjoyable as daydreaming.

28.(6分)John sat next to me when we were in Hill Junior School.He had a serious problem in communicating with people.One always had to guess what he was saying.Besides,most of my classmates did not like to be with him because his hands and shirts were always dirty.I tried to let him know the importance of being clean by telling him several times a day to wash his bands.But he just could not understand.
One day,our teacher Miss Li walked up to John.Without saying anything,she took John to the washroom.Slowly Miss Li washed his hands and told him that he should keep himself clean.She did that every day for one month.At last,John understood.
Miss Li's love has given me a good example to follow when I am doing my job.I always remember to teach my students by showing them the right ways to do things.And most important of all,I always remember to give them more time to learn and to grow up.

(1)Why didn't the writer's classmates like to be with John? (不超過10個詞)
   
(2)What did Miss Li do for John? (不超過15個詞)
   
(3)What did the writer learn from Miss Li?(不超過10個詞)

24.(6分)A well﹣known poem by Tang dynasty poet Du Mu tells of a sad scene in early April: "Rains fall heavily as Qingming comes,and passers﹣by with lowered spirits go."

Tomb Sweeping Day gives us a chance to show respect to our ancestors and family members who have passed away and show that we miss them.This tradition shows that family values are an important part of Chinese culture.

25.(8分)For as long as we can remember,one of the most popular ways parents use to punish their children has been the "time out".
It seems that it is a good idea:the child sits on his own to reflect(反思) on what he has done.Then,when the time is up,he will apologize and learn from the mistake.
However,just because it's something that's been done for years,that doesn't mean it is the right thing to do.In fact,very often,children don't sit nicely and think about what they've done.Instead,they need to be told a few (or many) times to go back to their places and stay quiet They are not reflecting on why they are in the "time out" at all.More likely than not,they're probably just really angry,and so are the parents.In the end,both the parents and the children make each other unhappy,or even angry.
What can parents do to change this situation?You may have already heard of things like peaceful parenting(育兒)and gentle parenting.These focus on the relationship between parent and child by building trust and love.So,instead of starting a "time our",try something called "time in".A "time in" needs both the parent and the child to stay close until both get calm.After that,the parent and the child can discuss what happened and solve the problem together.If the child can make changes,everyone can then move on.
As we all know,punishment and violence (暴力) seldom work and will never teach the children what the right way to act is.A "time in" can be the great time for the children to learn through mistakes.
Kids learn how to build their emotional and social skills through difficult situations.So,instead of punishing hem for acting their age,we can use chances to teach and guide them to a place of learning A "time in" may lake more time,but it does work.

(1)During a "time out",a child is told to  C .
A.stay outside
B.make a promise
C.sit alone and reflect
D.return to school
(2)In the writers' opinion,a "time out"  B  .
A.is becoming more popular
B.doesn't always work
C.should be parents' first choice
D.takes too much time
(3)When a child has done something wrong,the writer suggests that  B .
A both teachers and parents discuss bow to solve the problem
B.parents try something called "time in" instead of "time out"
C.the child say sorry to his or her parents and learn from mistakes
D.the child stay at home and reflect until he never makes mistakes
(4)The writer tells us punishment  C works.
A.sometimes
B.usually
C.seldom
D.suddenly
【分析】這篇文章主要討論了父母懲罰孩子的方式,特別是"暫停時間"這種方式的效果。文章指出,盡管"暫停時間"被廣泛使用,但這并不意味著它是正確的做法,因為孩子們往往并不會在"暫停時間"中反思自己的行為,反而可能會變得憤怒。文章建議父母嘗試使用"時間內(nèi)"的方法,即父母和孩子一起平靜下來,然后一起討論問題并解決問題。文章強調(diào),懲罰和暴力往往無效,而"時間內(nèi)"可以幫助孩子們通過錯誤來學習。
【解答】(1)細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段It seems that it is a good idea:the child sits on his own to reflect(反思) on what he has done.Then,when the time is up,he will apologize and learn from the mistake.(這似乎是個好主意:讓孩子獨自坐下來反思他所做的事情。然后,當時間到了,他會道歉并從錯誤中吸取教訓。)可知在"暫停"期間,孩子被要求獨自坐下來反思。故選C。
(2)細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段However,just because it's something that's been done for years,that doesn't mean it is the right thing to do.In fact,very often,children don't sit nicely and think about what they've done.Instead,they need to be told a few (or many) times to go back to their places and stay quiet They are not reflecting on why they are in the "time out" at all.(然而,僅僅因為它是多年來一直在做的事情,并不意味著它是正確的事情。事實上,很多時候,孩子們不會好好坐著,思考他們做了什么。相反,他們需要被告知幾次(或多次)回到自己的位置,保持安靜,他們根本沒有反思他們?yōu)槭裁丛?暫停")可知在作者看來,"暫停"并不咋總是有效。故選B。
(3)細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段As we all know,punishment and violence (暴力) seldom work and will never teach the children what the right way to act is.A "time in" can be the great time for the children to learn through mistakes.(我們都知道,懲罰和暴力很少起作用,也永遠不會教會孩子什么是正確的行為方式。"時間"是孩子們從錯誤中學習的好時機)可知當一個孩子做了錯事,作者建議父母會嘗試"時間"而不是"暫停"。故選B。
(4)細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段 Kids learn how to build their emotional and social skills through difficult situations.So,instead of punishing hem for acting their age,we can use chances to teach and guide them to a place of learning A "time in" may lake more time,but it does work.(孩子們在困難的環(huán)境中學習如何建立他們的情感和社交技能。所以,與其因為他們的行為與年齡不符而懲罰他們,我們可以利用機會教導(dǎo)和引導(dǎo)他們到一個學習的地方。"時間"可能需要更多的時間,但它確實有效。)可知作者告訴我們懲罰幾乎不起作用。故選C。
【點評】在通讀全文的基礎(chǔ)上,根據(jù)全文大意,展開邏輯思維,瞻前顧后,認真觀察選項,仔細推敲,確定最佳答案。
26.(8分)What would you do if you had trouble seeing clearly?You would probably go to an eye doctor who might give you glasses.For many people around the world,however,such a way isn't that simple.
The World Health Organization reports that glasses can help one billion people in the world.Yet places like Ghana have only one eye doctor every 8 million people. This makes glasses almost impossible to get Joshua Silver,a teacher at Oxford University,however,may have solved the problem.
Mr Silver has developed liquid (液體)﹣filled glasses that users can adjust (調(diào)整) by themselves without seeing a doctor!The lenses (鏡片) are filled with oil.Using a dial on the glasses,the user changes the amount of oil.This changes the strength (度數(shù)) of the lens.After the user finds the right strength,be then fixes the lens.
Results show that among those who have tied the glasses,around 80% are satisfied.Mr Silver's goal is for everyone who still needs glasses to have such glasses as soon as possible.With a little more effort,Mr Silver thinks that his goal might be achieved in the near future.

(1)The underlined word "This" in the second paragraph means  D .
A.glasses can help many people
B.Mr Silver has solved the problem
C.there are many people in need of glasses
D.there are not enough eye doctors
(2)The third paragraph is mainly about  B .
A.who the new glasses are used by
B.how the new glasses are used
C.why the new glasses were made
D.where the new glasses were invented
(3)We can know from the passage that  A .
A.the new glasses can do good to large numbers of people
B the new glasses must be adjusted by eye doctors
C.oil is not necessary for the new glasses
D glasses are easy to get everywhere all over the world
(4)What does Mr Silver think of the new glasses?  D 
A.He thinks they're the best of all.
B.He's completely uncertain about them.
C.He is worried about their future.
D.He thinks they have a bright future.
【分析】這篇短文主要介紹了一位牛津大學教師發(fā)明了一種可以自行調(diào)節(jié)的液體眼鏡,幫助那些無法輕易獲得眼鏡的人們。這種眼鏡的鏡片里充滿了油,使用者可以通過眼鏡上的旋鈕來改變油的數(shù)量,從而改變鏡片的度數(shù)。測試結(jié)果顯示,80%的使用者對這種眼鏡感到滿意。
【解答】(1)代詞指代題。根據(jù)第二段Yet places like Ghana have only one eye doctor every 8 million people.(但是像加納這樣的地方每8百萬人中只有一個眼科醫(yī)生。)可知,沒有足夠的眼科醫(yī)生使得人們很難獲得眼鏡,因此猜測this代指缺少眼科醫(yī)生,故選D。
(2)段落大意題。根據(jù)第三段Using a dial on the glasses,the user changes the amount of oil.(使用眼鏡上的刻度盤,用戶可以改變油的量。)可知本段主要講了如何使用眼鏡,故選B。
(3)細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段The World Health Organization reports that glasses can help one billion people in the world.(世界衛(wèi)生組織報道說眼鏡可以幫助世界上的一千萬人。)可知新的眼鏡可以造福很多人,故選A。
(4)推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段With a little more effort,Mr.Silver thinks that his goal might be achieved in the near future.(再努力一點,西爾弗先生認為他的目標可能在不久的將來實現(xiàn)。)據(jù)此推斷他認為新眼鏡有光明的未來,故選D。

27.(6分) Do you ever feel like your thoughts are going around in circles?One minute,you're thinking about your homework.The next minute ,you're thinking about your plans for the weekend.
Is it possible for us to slow our thoughts down or even stop them completely?It depends on your definition(定義)of "thinking",according to Michael Halassa,a researcher at MIT,US.We basically go through each day in one of the two states(狀態(tài))—we either realize that we are thinking or we don't.Our brains won't stop thinking completely until we die.
"The brain never actually stops 'thinking' in a broader sense.Most thoughts are actually in the background without us noticing them and there's not really a way to turn these things off." Halassa said.Human brains can unconsciously process(無意識地處理)about 11 million pieces of information per second,according to Forbes.
You can compare this to how a computer works.Even when you aren't using your computer while it's turned on,it is still running operations "in the background".Your computer,much like your brain,is constantly "thinking",even if you're not actively using it.
Some researchers have referred to this phenomenon(現(xiàn)象)as "thought﹣chatter".It describes all kinds of thoughts that pop(出現(xiàn))in and out of our mind at different times during the day,according to Steve Taylor,a psychology lecturer.
Some thought﹣chatter can be enjoyable,such as daydreaming.Albert Einstein came up with his famous theory of relativity(相對論)while daydreaming at work. "But too much though﹣chatter can make us feel too anxious or worried," Taylor said. "Meditation(冥想)can help us clean up some of this thought﹣chatter.
(1)The writer introduces the topic to readers by  B .
A.explaining the topic
B.reminding readers of a situation
C.making a conclusion
D.giving the answer to a question
(2)Michael Halassa thinks  D .
A.humans can control their brain completely
B.humans can always realize their brain is working

One day,our teacher Miss Li walked up to John.Without saying anything,she took John to the washroom.Slowly Miss Li washed his hands and told him that he should keep himself clean.She did that every day for one month.At last,John understood.
