People often like collecting things. Collecting stamps, books, pictures and pens are some common hobbies. I know many kinds of collections, but do you know the collection of clocks? My friend Mr. Clock, a short man, has the hobby. He has one thousand five hundred clocks.
There are clocks here and there in his house. You can see lots of clocks on the shelves. As there is not enough room for so many clocks, the man has to put clocks into some boxes under the beds in his house .
Mr. Clock likes his large collection of clocks, but his wife , Mrs. Clock does not enjoy them at all. She complains (抱怨) every day because she has to do much work, for it is not easy to clean hundreds of clocks. She also complains about the noise. Each clock keeps a different time. So she can hear the chimes almost any time day and night. There is something even worse. With so many clocks around, she is never able to know the correct time !
小題1:Mr. Clock likes collecting _________.
A．stampsB．picturesC．watchesD．clocks
小題2:Mr. Clock collected about _________ clocks.
A．1,050B．1,500C．1,550D．5,010

D．Mr. Clock only put the clocks on the shelves

小題1:D 
小題2:B
小題3:A
小題4:D
小題5:B

試題分析：這篇短文講述的是Clock先生喜歡收集鐘表，他收集了1,500個鐘表。但是Clock夫人卻不喜歡這個愛好，她每天都要清理幾百個鐘表，而且無論白天還是晚上她都能聽到報(bào)點(diǎn)聲，更氣人的是，雖然她家里到處是表，但是她卻不知道準(zhǔn)確的時間。
小題1:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第一段but do you know the collection of clocks? My friend Mr. Clock, a short man, has the hobby.你知道有收集鐘表的嗎？我的朋友Mr. Clock就有這個愛好。由此可知，Mr. Clock喜歡收集鐘表。故選D。
小題2:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第一段的最后一句話He has one thousand five hundred clocks.可知，他收集了1,500個鐘表。故選B。
小題3:詞義猜測題。根據(jù)短文中劃線詞所在的句子So she can hear the chimes almost any time day and night.可知，Clock先生的夫人無論在白天還是晚上任何一個時間都能聽到報(bào)點(diǎn)聲。這句話中有hear這個詞，意思是聽到，故這里劃線的這個詞應(yīng)該指的是報(bào)點(diǎn)聲。故選Ａ。
小題4:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文最后一段的內(nèi)容可知，Clock夫人每天都在抱怨，因?yàn)閕t is not easy to clean hundreds of clocks清理幾百個鐘表是很不容易的，以及she can hear the chimes almost any time day and night，任何時候她都能聽到報(bào)點(diǎn)聲，和she is never able to know the correct time她總是不知道準(zhǔn)確的時間。結(jié)合這三個地方可知，選D。
小題5:推理判斷題。根據(jù)短文最后一段的第一句話Mr. Clock likes his large collection of clocks, but his wife , Mrs. Clock does not enjoy them at all.可知，Clock先生喜歡他的收集，但是Clock夫人根本就不喜歡。故選B。

Life for Cathy Taylor’s three children is very busy. Their school days are busy enough. However, after school Cathy takes the two boys from football to basketball. Then she has to take her daughter to piano lessons. The tired children don’t get home until 7 pm. They have a quick supper, and then it’s time for homework.
The Taylors are like many American and British parents. They take their children from activity to activity. Doctors say many children are under too much pressure. Teachers complain about teaching tired kids in the classroom.
Most children take part in after-school clubs. Activities include sports, language learning, music, and math classes. Now parents seem to push their children a lot more. They see other children doing a lot of things, and they feel their own children should do the same.
Linda Miller, a mother of three in London, knows all about such pressure. “In some families, competition starts from a very young age,” She says. “ Mothers send their kids to all kinds of classes when they are very young. And they are always comparing them with other children. It’s crazy. People shouldn’t push their kids so hard.
Dr Alice Green agrees. She also says that these children may find it hard to think for themselves when they are older. “ Parents are trying to plan their kids’ lives for them. When these kids are adults, they might find it difficult to plan things for themselves.” Parents should learn to give their kids a bit more time to themselves. On the one hand, children need organized activities. On the other hand, they also need time and freedom to relax, and they need time to do things by themselves.
小題1:When do Cathy Taylor’s three children got home every day?
_________________________________________________.
小題2:What is the result(結(jié)果) of thinking too many activities to kids?
_________________________________________________.
小題3:Why do the parents make their children take part in all kinds of after-school clubs?
_________________________________________________.
小題4:Does Linda Miller agree to push kids so hard?

小題5:Why should parents learn to give their kids a bit more time to themselves?

Education is very important for the development of China. As we know, China has the largest population in the world and most of them live in the countryside. Because of the economic（經(jīng)濟(jì)）conditions, many families are very poor, especially those in the remote（偏僻的）areas, and they can’t afford to send their children to school. Many children have to stop attending school. Project Hope is aimed at solving this problem so that every child of school age can receive a regular education.
Project Hope mainly depends on the contributions（捐款）of the urban（城市的）people and overseas Chinese who care about the development of China’s education. The contributed（捐贈）money will be distributed（分配）by Project Hope council to the countryside to help the children who can’t afford the education. One hundred yuan will help such a child finish his primary education.
Project Hope is a good way to improve the education in the rural（農(nóng)村的）areas, but it isn’t enough. So far, only a small part of the children benefit（受益）from it. So we should pay more attention to the problem and do much more to help raise the educational level of the country.
根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容判斷正（A）誤（B）。（10分）
小題1:In the remote areas many poor families can’t afford their children’s regular education.
小題2:Project Hope only depends on the contributions of the urban people and overseas Chinese.
小題3:Project Hope aims to afford an education for the poor children.
小題4:One hundred yuan will help a poor child finish his primary education.
小題5:So far, most part of the children have benefited from Project Hope.
