As you drink you hear your teacher say those frightening words: “Could I see you for a moment in the classroom, please？”You can almost feel your blood pressure rise as you walk to your English class.Shes always picking on you. What can it be this time? You think of the test you did last Friday. Now your mind is racing, your heart is pounding，and your forehead is pouring with sweat. In situations like this you will often feel like running away but you may also feel like hitting someone on the nose.Your teacher asks you to go into the class.“Here it comes，” you think. But what you hear is: “Well done. Your test was excellent.” You can hardly believe your ears.Our fight or flight response is designed to protect us from tigers that would have once hidden in the woods around us, threatening our survival. At times when our survival is threatened, there is no greater response to have on our side.When activated, the response causes stress hormones (荷尔蒙) to pump through our body.When we face very real dangers to our survival, it is invaluable. However, few of the “tigers” we face in our lives pose (造成) a serious physical threat to our existence.They cause us no end of stress, triggering (引发) the full activation of our fight or flight response. They tend to cause us to overreact to the situation in a counterproductive way. It is counterproductive to hit someone (the fight response) or run away (the flight response). By recognizing the symptoms，we can begin to take steps to handle the stress overload. By learning to recognize the signals of fight or flight activation, we can avoid reacting excessively (过度地) to events and fears that are not life threatening. In so doing, we use this extra energy to help us, borrowing the beneficial effects in order to change our emotional environment and deal productively with our fears, thoughts and potential dangers.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人类的应激反应。5You feel nervous when walking to the classroom because_.Ayou broke the school rulesByou failed the test last FridayCyour teacher spoke to you loudlyDyour teacher always criticizes you解析：选D细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Shes always picking on you.

A recent report, which examined in detail the reading habits of primary school children, showed that even sevenyearold boys and girls have clear views about what they want to read. Girls, in general, read more, and far more girls than boys preferred reading stories. Boys were showing a taste for the more instant appeal of picture stories, or else books about their hobbies.These tastes continue unchanged until the children are teenagers. Apparently girls read more in general, but more fiction in particular. You could say that there are more opportunities for girls to read fiction: magazines encourage the fiction habit in girls in their early teens, and by their late teens they have probably moved on to the adult womens magazines. Teenage boys tend to buy magazines about their hobbies: motorcycles, heavy transport and so on.Adult reading tastes are also the subject of research. Again the number of women who read for pleasure is considerably higher than the number of men. It seems that the majority of women still want love stories. There has also been some analysis of what men actually read. Apparently only 38 percent of men read anything, but 50 percent of what they read is fiction in the form of actionpacked (情节起伏跌宕的) stories of space or gunmen.语篇解读：研究表明，孩子的阅读习惯在很早就已形成且保持不变，直到他们长大成为青少年。9What did the recent research on childrens reading show?AChildren begin to read very fast at an early age.

Though it varies from school to school, there are a few that are given by most schools across the nation.The first one is given from grades 3 to 8 and it is the Honor Roll Award. In elementary and middle school, this award is used to recognize academic excellence. This award is also separated into two groups: A Honor Roll and A/B Honor Roll. It is given out at the end of a school year and students who receive all averages of a 93 or above (90 in some states) on a final report card receive an A Honor Roll, and students with grades above 85 (80 in some states) would receive an A/B Honor Roll. It is to reward students who have worked hard and received all As or As and Bs.In high school, this is changed a bit, but still can be classified as the same type of award. The difference is that instead of using the scale (等级) of 100, they use a grade point average (GPA) based on a 4 point scale. They recognize students with a high GPA as “Honor Students”. If the student keeps it up for all four years of high school, then they graduate with honors.Another notable award is the Presidents Award for Educational Excellence. This is given by the Presidents Education Awards Program each year to students all over the United States. This award is offered to elementary school, middle school and high school students. To be eligible (有资格的) for this award, middle school and elementary school students must earn an average grade of 90 or above on a 109 point scale. High school students must have a GPA of at least 3.5. Students must also have a high score on a statewide or national standardized test or have a recommendation from a teacher. Usually this award is given at the end of the year. It is a certificate with a signature from the president along with a letter of recognition.However, many people confuse the Presidents Award for Educational Excellence with another award, the US Presidential Scholars Program. Even though both have the word “President” in the title, they are completely different awards. Where the Presidents Award for Educational Excellence is relatively easy to achieve, the award from the Presidential Scholars Program is not. To earn the honor of being a Presidential Scholar, a student must be a high school senior last year of high school with outstanding standardized test scores.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了美国学校设置的一些奖项以及获得这些奖项需要满足的条件。12If, in most of the schools in the US, a student in Grade 5 wants to get A Honor Roll, he/she must get at least all averages of a _.A93 B85C90 D80解析：选A细节理解题。根据第二段第四句中的“and students who receive all averages of a 93 or above (90 in some states) . receive an A Honor Roll”可知，在美国大多数学校，想要获得A Honor Roll，平均分必须在93分或以上。故答案选A。13From the passage we know that the students who _ can graduate with honors.Akeep up the grades of 100 in high school for more than one yearBget averages of 100 in high school for all four years of high schoolCget a high GPA in high school for more than one yearDare recognized as “Honor Students” for all four years of high school解析：选D细节理解题。根据第三段最后两句可知，如果学生能连续四年获得“优秀学生”的称号，就能带着荣誉毕业。故选D。14If high school students are to win the Presidents Award for Educational Excellence, which of the following statements should be included?AAn average grade of 90 or above on a 100 point scale.BA recommendation from a teacher.CA GPA of at least 3.5 in a national standardized test.DA high school senior with outstanding standardized test scores.解析：选B细节理解题。根据第四段第五、六句“High school students must have a GPA of at least 3.5.
