【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
Arriving in Sydney on his own from India, my husband, Rashid, stayed in a hotel for a short time while looking for a house for me and our children.
During the first week of his stay, he went out one day to do some shopping. He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone. He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers, including his passport.
He reported the case to the police and then sat there, lost and lonely in the strange city, thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a faraway country while trying to settle down in a new one.
Late in the evening, the phone rang. It was a stranger. He was trying to pronounce my husband's name and was asking him a lot of questions. Then he said they had found a pile(堆) of papers in their trash can(垃圾桶) that had been left out on the footpath.
My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents(文件). Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar(不熟悉的) papers. Her parents had carefully sorted them out, although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents. At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.
That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people. We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish their way.
(1)What did Rashid plan to do after his arrival in Sydney?
A.Go shopping.
B.Find a house.
C.Join his family.
D.Take a vacation.
(2)The girl's parents got Rashid's phone number from _______.
A.a friend of his family
B.a Sydney policeman
C.a letter in his papers
D.a stranger in Sydney
(3)What does the underlined word “restored” in the last paragraph mean?
A.Showed.
B.Sent out.
C.Delivered(遞送).
D.Gave back.
(4)Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.From India to Australia
B.Living in a New Country
C.Turning Trash to Treasure
D.In Search of New Friends

【答案】
(1)B
(2)C
(3)D
(4)C
【解析】這是一篇記敘文,作者的丈夫著急尋找丟失的文件包,幸運(yùn)的是,有人打電話給送了回來(lái)。原來(lái)是那家人的小孩在垃圾桶旁邊發(fā)現(xiàn)了這些文件,然后給送還了回來(lái),通過(guò)這件事作者一家又找回了對(duì)人的信任。
⑴考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的“Rashid stayed in a hotel for a short time while looking for a short time while looking for a house可知,Rashid在旅館待了很短一段時(shí)間就出去給家人找房子了。故選B。
⑵考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的”At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.“可知,陌生人一家是通過(guò)作者丈夫文件中的一封信,得知他的電話號(hào)碼的,故選C。
⑶考查詞義猜測(cè)。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的”My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents.“可知,那家人把撿到的文件送還給作者的丈夫,應(yīng)該是“歸還”文件,由故選D。
⑷考查主旨大意。本文述了作者的丈夫丟失的物品被扔到了垃圾箱,但是一個(gè)好心的家庭卻把那些文件整理好送還給作者的丈夫,這些別人眼里的垃圾對(duì)作者的丈夫來(lái)說(shuō)非常重要,由此判斷C項(xiàng)合題意。

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
Dreams can be familiar and strange, fantastical or boring, but some dreams might be connected to the mental processes that help us learn. No one knows for certain why people dream, but some dreams might be connected to the mental processes that help us learn. In a recent study, scientists found a connection between nap-time dreams and better memory in people who were learning a new skill.
In the study, 99 college students between the ages of 18 and 30 each spent an hour on a computer, trying to get through a virtual maze(迷宮). The maze was difficult, and the study participants had to start in a different place each time they tried — making it even more difficult. They were also told to find a particular picture of a tree and remember where it was.
For the first 90 minutes of a five-hour break, half of the participants stayed awake and half were told to take a short nap. Participants who stayed awake were asked to describe their thoughts. Participants who took a nap were asked about their dream after sleep — and they were awakened within a minute of sleep to describe their dreams.
Stickgold, a neuroscientist (神經(jīng)科學(xué)家), to know what people were dreaming about when their eyes weren't moving, during sleep.
Four of the 50 people who slept said their dreams were connected to the maze. Some dreamed about the music that had been playing when they were working; others said they dreamed about seeing people in the maze. When these four people tried the computer maze again, they were able to find the tree faster than before their naps.
Stickgold suggests the dream itself doesn't help a person learn — it's the other way around. He suspects that the dream was caused by the brain processes associated with learning.
All four of the people who dreamed about the task had done poorly the first time, which makes Stickgold wonder if the dreams show up when a person finds a new task particularly difficult. People who had other dreams, or people who didn't take a nap, didn't show the same improvement.
(1)Before having a short nap, participants of the experiment were asked to ________.
A.stay in different place in the maze
B.design a virtual maze which is difficult to get through
C.experience the experiment and try to remember something
D.get through a virtual maze on a computer from the same place
(2)After doing what they were asked on computers, participants ________.
A.were divided into two groups to do different things at break
B.were so tired as to fall asleep
C.felt bored with the experiment and they were sleepy
D.were asked to remember their experiment separately
(3)What can we learn from the passage?
A.Participants who took a nap were required to express their thought.
B.Some dreams may encourage people to invent something new.
C.Participants who dreamed about films could finish the task more easily.
D.Participants whose dreams had something to do with the maze could find the tree faster.
(4)According to Stickgold, ________.
A.every person may dream about what they learned
B.people's brain processes may still be connected with their learning in their dreams
C.once people's eyes stop moving, they are sure to dream about something
D.no matter how fantastical or boring, dreams are connected with people's life

【題目】How to Build a Student’s Self-Confidence

Educating students means more than giving them academic knowledge. Simply knowing a correct response doesn’t give a student the confidence to raise his hand to answer a question. Students perform best in constructive learning environments.1

Provide leadership opportunities for students. Cultivate (培養(yǎng)) important characteristics, including responsibility and independence by assigning students to take different classroom roles. Suitable jobs include hall monitors, audio-visual assistants and classroom helpers. 2

Set achievable goals for each student. 3Engage in ongoing dialogue regarding your expectations and their individual progress. Reward students for meeting challenges, while persuading struggling students back on track.

Give constructive feedback to help reduce weaknesses and strengthen strengths. Teach students that self-confidence isn’t built from being harmed by praise. Remain honest with each student to encourage them to speak out their problems, instead of avoiding or denying their existence. Make corrections without damaging your students’ confidence.

Encourage students to set high standards for themselves. 4Reinforce(強(qiáng)化) this message with age-appropriate examples and literature. Provide consistent encouragement to students to show your commitment to their success.

5Realize that conquering difficult tasks builds mental toughness and fosters persistence. Relay this message to your students by asking each one to write a goal that focuses on improving a weak area. Help your students develop relevant attack plans.

A. Push students to improve their weaknesses.

B. Self-confidence games can help students of all ages.

C. Reassure students that they are capable of achieving greatness.

D. You can ease students’ insecurities with various activities that build confidence.

E. They are especially useful in helping young children build success for their future.

F. Realize that overcoming self-doubt to achieve objectives helps build students’ confidence.

G. Mastering some duties can help build confidence and erase fear of trying new experiences.

【題目】語(yǔ)法填空Bully for you
The makers of a hotly debated computer game about bullying have decided to go ahead and put it into market despite calls for it (forbid). In the game, players take on the role of a new student at a school and have to fight the bullies , by striking them or hitting them a baseball bat.
Critics have said that the game encourages (violent). The makers, however, disagree and say that, while the game might be a little violent at times, it is just an (amuse) look at school life. Besides, they argue that the fighting in the game ( direct) against the bullies to protect students who are being bullied. The makers also say that the players will learn to stand up to bullies, use their strength or power to hurt or frighten other people. “Nobody should bully others just because they want to feel stronger or(important),” said the makers.
A British politician, a former minister, has called for it to be banned as it might have negative influence on the way young people think of violent behaviors.
Anti-bullying (charity) that fight against school bullying have said that the game might make people respond violently to bullies, which might make things more complicated and result in injuries. In other words, people (possible) get hurt because of the game.
