What's the most important thing for you to have in your life? Somebody mentions hard work; others suggest knowledge, love and luck.
If you arrange(排列)the 26 English letters in
order and use numbers to represent each of them, for
example, 1 for a, 2 for b, 3 for c. . . 26 for z, you can
change an English word into a number. So hard work
becomes 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11=98,meaning 98
is its mark; knowledge: 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5
=96;love:12+15+22+5=54, and luck: 12+21+3+11=47,
a small mark. None of these words can give one a full
mark. What about money? It can't, either.
Then what else? Don't be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things, or your attitude. Yes, attitude is the word. See for yourself : attitude:1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100,a full mark.
Different attitudes lead to different courses of life. Most time people hope for a better life. It is possible that they will have a better life if they change their attitudes. When you change your manner and became friendly toward others, you'll meet more smiling faces toward you. In the same way, if you take a positive attitude toward failure, you'll find it's also rewarding(有益的)though it has caused you losses(損失).

Ask any student which subject he or she hates most, 9 out of 10 students will answer "math". No matter which country you visit, no matter which grade you are in, you may not learn art, geography, chemistry or Chinese, but you always learn math. Why is this so? How come so many students hate math, and yet cannot avoid learning it in school?
Jenny Sanders, a high school student in California, asks, "What good do we get from learning math? We can use computers to compute numbers, and we can use computers to store information. I think learning math at school is a waste of time."
However, there is much more to math than just learning to add and subtract(減)numbers.① In fact, math is not so much about calculation as it is about learning to think logically and solving problems. ②Of course,Jenny was right that we could use computers to do calculations, but how would we even know how to use the computer if we couldn't think logically? In short, computers are only tools when solving problems.
For example, imagine you are a cook and must serve dinner to 100 guests. How should you divide your resources so that you can get the job done most efficiently(高效地)?In situations like this, the ability to think logically will get you to a reasonable answer and solve your problem.
1.According to the passage, which subject do students always learn in different grades at school?
A. Chinese. B. Math. C. Geography. D. Art.
2.What does Jenny Sanders think of learning math?

Two children stood outside the door with old coats.
"Any old papers, lady?" asked one of them.
I was busy. ①I(mǎi) wanted to say no, but I saw that
their shoes had holes in them and that they were wet.
"Come in and I'll make you a cup of hot tea." They
came in, saying nothing. Their shoes left prints on the floor.
I gave them tea and bread to protect them from the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started my housework again.

The girl put her cup back in its saucer (茶碟)carefully and said, "Your cups match(相配)your saucers."
Then they left, holding their papers against the wind. They hadn't said thank you. They didn't need to. They had done more than that. They had reminded me that I had so much to thank for.

If you have a brother or sister, you already know you are different from each other. You live together in the same house and have the same parents, but you have different personalities.
Why is this? One possible reason is the way your parents treat you. First-born children receive all the attention from their parents. Most families have twice as many photos of a first-born than any other child. Parents usually give first-born more responsibility and depend on them to take care of younger brothers and sisters. As a result, first-borns are often responsible, hard-working, andjealous. They often want to do well at school and work. There are more first-born American Presidents, for example, George Bush, George Washington, and Lyndon Baines Johnson-than second or last-born children.
When a second child arrives, parents are more relaxed. The second child has to compete with the first-born for the parents’ attention and love. Their children often choose different sports and hobbies to do well at school and work, but have to be creative to get their family’s attention. They are often friendly and cool. Many famous talk-show hosts were born last.
1.The writer thinks that the second children are often ______.
A. outgoing and jealous B. cool and friendly
C. hard-working and serious D. creative and responsible
2.The underlined word “jealous” means______ in the passage.
A. 友好的 B. 冷靜的 C. 快樂(lè)的 D. 嫉妒的
3.______is usually the happiest in the family according to the passage.
A. The eldest child. B. The second child.
C. The youngest child. D. The father.
4.We can learn from the passage that .
A. the second child is very similar to the first-born child
B. brothers and sisters usually have the same personalities
C. it’s easy for the second child to get his or her parents’ attention
D. there are more first-born successful people than second or last-born people

Up to 65% of children don't get as much sleep as they should do, and this can make them nervous and slower at school, scientists say.
So how long should young people sleep each night? The answer is between eight and ten hours. If you don't get enough sleep at night, you'll have less energy the next day.
①But the scientists say many children have missed out on 4, 500 hours of sleep by the time they are seven years old. They say that children miss sleep because they have TVs and computers in their rooms,and busy parents don't read to their younger children at night any more. The traditional "bedtime story" helps children to relax and fall asleep peacefully. Children with TVs and computers in their bedrooms are more likely to sleep badly, and to get less than eight hours' sleep. Even losing one hour's sleep a night can mean that children do less well at school.
German scientists think that your brain(大腦)keeps working while you are asleep.②To show that they were right,they gave two groups of people a problem to work out. One group went to sleep, and the other group stayed awake. The result? The people who slept worked out the answer
more quickly. This showed that their brains had been trying to find the answer while the people were asleep. So, make sure you get enough sleep tonight, and you'll be at your best tonight, and you'll be at your best tomorrow!
1.What problem do more than a half of students have?
A. They don't get on well with their studies.
B. They don't have enough sleep at night.
C. They don't relax themselves at school.
D. They don't follow their school rules
2.According to the third paragraph, what influences many children's sleep worst?
A. Their parents' noise. B. Bedtime stories.
C. Too much homework. D. TV and computers.
3.The German scientists' experiment showed that _______.
A. our study depended on our sleep
B. our sleep helped improve our health
C. our brain worked while we were asleep
D. our brain worked faster during sleep

What’s going to happen in the future? Will robots control our planet? Will computers become smarter than us? Not likely. But here are some things that scientists say are most likely to happen in 10 to 30 years from now, according to the BBC.
Digital money
We used to pay with cash(現(xiàn)金) for everything we bought. Now when we use a credit card(信用卡) to shop online, money is spent without us seeing it. That means we are already using digital money. Using a card is much easier than searching our pockets for change. It is also safer than carrying a lot of cash.
When ATM cards were first introduced, they were not accepted everywhere. But now it’s hard to live without them. It’s reported that people in Sweden completely stopped using cash last year, and the US might be next.
Bionic(仿生的) eye
It’s no longer something only in a science fiction movie. People who are blind may have a chance to get their sight back---by wearing bionic eyes.
A blind eye can no longer sense light, but a bionic eye can use a camera to “see” the environment and send data(數(shù)據(jù)) to the mind. Now the bionic eye only allows patients to see lights and unclear shapes. A high resolution(高清的) image could be just a few years away.
Self-driving cars
Unlike a human driver, a self-driving car won’t get distracted(分神) by a phone call, the radio or something outside the window. Sensors(探測(cè)器) and cameras on the car would allow it to stick strictly to the rules of the road and keep a safe distance from other cars. This would greatly reduce the number of road accidents. You could even take a nap while the car drives itself. In the future, driver-less cars would be widely accepted.
1.______ has stopped using cash completely.
A. Sweden B. ATM C. BBC D. America
2.What does the writer mainly tell us about digital money?
A. We use digital money to shop online without paying money.
B. Digital money is most likely to be used instead of cash.
C. Using cash is easier and safer than a credit card.
D. ATM cards arc always popular.
3.Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Bionic eyes only appear in the science fiction film.
B. Human drivers won't get distracted by something outside.
C. The blind wearing bionic eyes may see clearly in the future.
D. There will be no road accident at all if self-driving cars are used.
4.From the report, we can learn some information about ______.
A. culture and Art B. industry and farming
C. science and technology D. traffic and journey
5.Which of the following can be predicted(預(yù)測(cè)) from the passage?
A. There would be a number of self-driving cars on the road
B. The blind could use cameras to see things around.
C. We would live a hard life with digital money.
D. Robots would control the world.

The eagle has the longest life of its group. It can reach up to
70 years. But to reach this age, the eagle must make a hard and
painful decision.
When an eagle reaches near 40, its short sharp beak becomes
bent(彎曲的). Its long and once flexible(靈活的) talons
can no longer catch animals or birds for food. And its old and
heavy wings with thick feathers on its body make it difficult to fly.
Then, the eagle has only tow choices: to die or to go through a
painful time of change which needs five months.
When the eagle feels weak and is about to die, it goes to a
place far away on the top of a mountain and sits on a nest. For a new life, the eagle knocks its beak against a rock until it pulls its beak out. After pulling it out, the eagle waits for a new beak to grow. And then it pulls out its talons and old feathers. It takes the eagle five months to complete its change and get a new life. We can call it its rebirth. So it can live for 30 more years.
Like the eagle, we human beings sometimes need to make some change to get out of our difficulty. Inmiserablecondition, we have to change our ways of life. The changing may be very painful. But sometimes we have to throw off our old habits, memories and traditions. We can’t go on with all our past burdens(重負(fù)).
1.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. When an eagle reaches near 40, its short sharp beak is still straight.
B. For a new life, the eagle knocks its talons against a rock.
C. If the eagle doesn’t change itself, it will have a new life.
D. The writer’s idea is that we can’t go on with all our past burdens.
2.The underlined word“miserable” here probably means“ ”.
A. terrible B. good C. lonely D. lucky
3.The best title for the passage can be“ ”.
A. The death of the eagle
B. The living period of the eagle
C. A good and easy decision
D. Rebirth of the eagle

Antifreeze is a liquid(液體) that is added to water to keep it from freezing. When water freezes and turns to ice,it expands(膨脹).The force of water expanding is so great that it will break the hardest metal.Water is used in car engines(發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)) to keep them cool while they run,and if this water is allowed to freeze in winter it can break the iron block of the engine.That is why antifreeze is necessary.
Water freezes at 0℃;the usual kind of antifreeze will not freeze until the temperature is-40℃.A mixture(混合物) of five parts of water and four parts of antifreeze will prevent freezing at-18℃;four parts of water and five parts of antifreeze reduce this to -22℃.
Alcohol is a kind of good antifreeze,but when the air is running it becomes hot and the alcohol boils away,so it must be changed very often.Most people use antifreeze that does not boil away when the engine is running.There are several chemicals that do this.One of the most popular is called ethylene glycol.
1.people use ________ to keep car engines cool.
A. antifreeze B. water C. alcohol D. ethylene glycol.
2.The usual kind of antifreeze freezes at ________.
A. 0℃ B. -18℃ C. -22℃ D. -40℃
3.We use antifreeze in order to ________.
A. keep alcohol in water
B. stop ice from becoming water
C. make the freezing point of water lower
D. raise the freezing point of water
4.Besides alcohol,________ is another kind of popular antifreeze.
A. water B. ethylene glycol C. any chemical D. any mixture
