8.Pick up a pencil.Lift your foot.Raise your arm.These directions may sound simple,but many parts of your body must work together for you to make those movements.Your joints are parts of your body that help your bones move.With little effort,joints move bones in different directions.But some people's joints do not work well because of illness or injury.Their joints sometimes have to be replaced with artificial ones.
Joints look simple.You might think that scientists would have no trouble making artificial joints that work as well as real joints.After over a century of trying,scientists are just beginning to find ways of making artificial joints that work well.
What problems have to be solved in building an artificial joint?First,some joints have to be strong enough to support most of a person's weight.The first artificial hip-joint,built in 1891,failed because it could not hold up a person's weight.
Second,joints have to be flexible to allow movement in different directions.
Third,joints must be made of materials that the body will not reject.Usually,the body reacts to foreign substances by producing cells that attack and destroy the substances.To the body an artificial joint is a foreign substance that should be destroyed.
Scientists have finally found ways to solve these problems.Nowadays the artificial knee-joint is made of a special metal and plastic.The metal is a combination of silicon (硅) and stainless steel.The metal is strong,so it can support the weight of the body.The plastic is a flexible material.It allows the joint to move easily.Medicines have been discovered that will prevent the body from rejecting the artificial joint.People who have lost the use of a joint can get an artificial joint that works almost as well as the original one.
81.Which parts of our body help our bones move?(No more than 2words) (2marks)
The joints./Our joints
82.How many years have scientists been working to find ways of making artificial joints that work well?(No more than 4words) (2marks)

1.Each year there is an increasing number of cars on roads and streets as millions of new cars and trucks are produced.One out of every six Americans work at putting together the parts of cars,driving trucks,building roads or filling cars and trucks with gas.Americans won't live without cars!
Most Americans would find it hard to think what life would look like without cars.However,some have realized the serious problems of the air pollution that is caused by the car.The polluted air becomes poisonous and dangerous to health.
One way to get rid of the polluted air is to build a car that does not pollute.That's what several of the large car factories have been trying to do.But to build a clean car is easier said than done.Progress in this field has been slow.
Another way is to take the place of the car engine by something else.Inventors are now working on steam cars as well as electric cars.Many makers believe that it will take years to develop a practical model that pleases man.
To prevent the world from being polluted by cars,we'll have to make some changes in the way many of us live.Americans,for example,have to cut down on the number of their total cars.They are encouraged to travel and go to work by bicycle.Bicycling is thought to help keep the air clean.
But this change does not come easily----a large number of workers may find themselves without jobs if a car factory closes down.Thus the problem of air pollution would become less important than that of unemployment.
Although cars have led us to a better life,they have also brought us new problems.
59.Large car factories are trying to build a clean car,C.
A.which is clean itself           
B.which is used to clean streets
C.which does not pollute the air  
D.which is easier to make
60.If the number of cars is cut down,the most serious problem to American workers isA.
A.to have no work to do      
B.to keep the air clean
C.to get a better life      
D.to go to work by bike
61.What is the conclusion of the writer?D
A.Bicycling is the only way out.
B.The number of cars must be cut down.
C.Cars bring us nothing but serious problems.
D.Cars bring us not only a better life but serious problems.

18.Ray Travers sat back at the large desk,and looked around his plush(豪華的)office.He was tired.
Ray's eyes stopped at a painting on the wall.It was a gift given by an old friend,Bull,as a farewell gift when he left his hometown.He recalled the life spent in that small town; pleasant times.The many hours he spent talking lo his good friend,and the tales he was told about hunting in the Africa of old.
Memories flowed back more than ten years; he remembered how he enjoyed hearing about the wonderful hunting,and how he wished he could have shared those times.
Ray opened his desk drawer and brought out a wooden box.He opened the lid and exposed a work of art,a hand-made hunting knife.This was a gift from Bull,given to Ray more than 20years ago.It was one of the first knives Bull had made,and Ray had called it"Zambezi",the river where Bull had been so many times.
He closed the box and sat upright at his desk; he was driving himself hard,and deserved a break.Things were going well with the business,everything running smoothly.He could afford a week off!

3.Sleepover Secrets
Sleepovers are most popular for kids from eight to fourteen.At the first sleepover party,keep the guest list short,two or three are enough.

Everyone knows that a sleepover rarely involves much sleeping,so be prepared with lots of games,snacks and activities.
Activities
Although most preteens will keep themselves entertained,it's a good idea to plan a few activities.Some parents like to do one major activity outside the home such as going to the movies,bowling or swimming.Not only does this add structure to the event,it should also make guests tired enough that they actually sleep!
Food
Junk food at sleepovers is a time-honored tradition,but don't offer too much.It's fine to have some chips,and a cake is a must,but add some fruits or vegetables so you don't end up with a party full of stomachaches.Offer bottled water or juice instead of soda with caffeine,or they'll never get to sleep.Sleepover guests are old enough to make their own food so consider planning a kitchen activity.Make-your-own-bars(pizza,foods,sundaes) work well for this age group.

Bedtime
When should you turn the lights out?It depends on the ages of the guests.Younger children should probably be in their sleeping bags by 10p.m.,older ones by midnight.Avoid quarrels about who sleeps next to whom by suggesting the guests arrange their sleeping bags in a starburst pattern with heads in the middle.For guests ready to go to sleep before others,consider putting them in a guest room.If this is a first sleepover,be prepared for a guest who wants to go home.Be certain you have a way to reach all the parents in case this happens.Before you call the parents,however,try to reduce the guest's fears.A child who's afraid of the dark may be comforted by a dim (昏暗的) night light.
51.Who is the passage written for?(不多于十個(gè)詞)
Parents who are going to host the (first) sleepover
52.What outdoor activities are suggested in the passage?(不多于七個(gè)詞)
Going to the movies,bowling or swimming.
53.What drinks should you offer to sleepover guests?(不多于七個(gè)詞)
Bottled water or juice.
54.Why should you be able to reach the parent of each guest?(不多于十個(gè)詞)
In case someone wants to go home..

20.Exceptional children are different in some significant ways from others of the same age.For these children to develop to their full adult potential,their education must be adapted to those differences.
Although we focus on the needs of exceptional children,we find ourselves describing their environment as well.While the leading actor on the stage captures our attention,we are aware of the importance of the supporting players and the scenery of the play itself.Both the family and the society in which exceptional children live are often the key to their growth and development.And it is in the public schools that we find the full expression of society's understanding-the knowledge,hopes,and fears that are passed on to the next generation.
Education in any society is a mirror of that society.In that mirror we can see the strengths,the weaknesses,the hopes,the prejudices,and the central values of the culture itself.The great interest in exceptional children shown in public education over the past three decades indicates the strong feeling in our society that all citizens,whatever their special conditions,deserve the opportunity to fully develop their capabilities.
"All men are created equal,"we heard it many times,but it still has important meaning for education in a democratic society.Although the phrase was used by this country's founders to indicate equality before the law,it has also been interpreted to mean equality of opportunity.That concept implies educational opportunity for all children-the right of each child to receive help in learning to the limits of his or her capability,whether that capability is small or great.Recent court decisions have confirmed the right of all children-disabled or not-to an appropriate education,and have ordered that public schools take the necessary steps to provide that education.In response,schools are modifying their programs,adapting instruction to children who are exceptional,to those who cannot profit substantially from regular programs.
(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TWELVE WORDS.)
 
 
81.This passage is concerned primarily with the necessity of adaptingeducation to exceptional children
82.What affects the growth of exceptional children according to the author?
Their family and the society.
83.People have shown great interest in the education of exceptional children over the last three decades because they believe thatall citizens deserve the opportunity to fully develop their capabilities 
84.According to the passage,what does"All men are created equal"mean to the country's founders?It means/indicates everyone/anyone is equal before the law..
