He passed round a skull (头骨) as he talked, and we all felt interested and took notes while listening. Later, we had a test about that.When he returned my paper, I was very, very surprised. There was a very large cross through each of my answers. And so was it with everyone elses in our class. What had happened? Everyone was wondering and couldnt wait to get the answer.Very simple, Mr. Whitson explained. He had made up all that story about the cattytiger. There had never been such an animal. So why did none of us notice that and how could we expect good marks for the incorrect answers?Needless to say, we got very angry. What kind of teacher was this?We should have guessed it out, Mr. Whitson said. After all, at the very moment he was passing around the skull (in fact, a cats), hadnt he been telling us that it completely disappeared during the Ice Age? Clearly when he was passing the skull and said it was of a creature called cattytiger, he was telling a lie(actually, on purpose). But we just kept busy making notes and nobody used his head. We should learn something from this. Teachers and textbooks are not always correct.21. Why did the students fail in the test? _. A. Because they asked notes while listening. B. Because they didnt listen to the teacher carefully. C. Because they didnt show interest in what Mr. Whitson said. D. Because they didnt think carefully.22. The students didnt find out it was a lie for _. A. they simply believed their teacher very much B. they hadnt watched the skull carefully enough C. they took notes carelessly D. Mr. Whitson spoke too fast23. What did Mr. Whitson give the students the special lesson for? A. Showing his best way of teaching. B. Playing a joke on the students. C. Helping the students learn lessons better D. Making the students no longer believe him.24. By giving such a lesson, Mr. Whitson meant that _. A. teachers couldnt make any mistakes B. textbooks cant be wrong sometimes C. we should speak up if we thought our teacher or the textbook was wrong D. we shouldnt believe our teachers because sometimes they might tell liesBBellwood, IL Kombo Peshu came to the United States from the poor village of Mwanda, Kenya, ten years ago when Father Richard Quinn gave him the chance to further his education. Kombo was given a full scholarship（奖学金） to study for a masters degree.When Kombo returned to Kenya for a visit four years later, he realized how lucky he was to have received his education in the United States. Over the four years he was in America, conditions in Mwanda had worsened, and he was struck（打动，产生深刻印象） by how many children were struggling to receive a proper education.Kombo knew that he had to give back to his people after seeing such hardships(困难). First, he began to give money out of his own pocket, but he soon realized he had to do more. He went back to the United States and asked for donations(捐献), and was finally able to raise enough to start the Mughamba Scholarship Foundation, a fund for children in his village of Mwanda who cannot afford school. The people around him were so moved by his emotional accounts of these children that some of them not only gave money but also traveled with him back to Mwanda to see firsthand what daily life is like for these children.Kombo continues to raise money for his village and currently has 40 students on scholarships for high school and 5 at universities in Kenya. In addition to continuing to raise money for his scholarship fund（基金会）, by selling traditional Kenyan items he is also working to raise money to get more running water in his village.25.

The meaning of the underlined word “accounts” in the third paragraph is close to _. A. customer（主顾，客户） B. bank C. description（描述） D. judgement（判断） 28. The purpose of writing the passage is to _. A. inspire more people to fight poverty B. share the story of Kombo PeshuC. encourage readers to contribute to Kenya D. show the living conditions of Kenyan children CSomething About Word Formation Some English words are made of the same part but have different beginnings and different endings, such as import, export, report and transport. All these words, you can see, have the same root “port”, which comes from the Latin(拉丁文) word, meaning “to carry” or “to move” from one place to another. And according to the bit at the beginningwhich we call the prefix(前缀)the meaning changes: “import” means “to carry in”, or “to bring into a country”; “export”, “ex” means “out of”, so this word means “to carry out of the country”; “re” means “back”, so the word “report” means “to tell somebody, to bring back information to somebody”; “transport”, “trans” means “across” and it means “to carry across one place to another”. Lets look at the following words: supporter, reporter, importer and exporter. You can see that in this case these words are nouns which are made up of the verbs plus a suffix and the suffix means a person who completes the action of the verb. So supporter means somebody who supports. A reporter is somebody who reports. Importer is somebody who imports and exporter is somebody who exports, and so on. 29. In the sentence “Some English words are made of the same part but have different beginnings and different endings”, “part” means “_”.A. different beginnings and different endingsB. the same part which has several meaningsC. the root of a wordD. the same root which has different meanings30. Which of the following is NOT true? A. Apart from “port”, most English words have the same root which comes from the Latin word. B. “Port” is the root forming some English words. C. “Port” is the root meaning “to move” from one place to another. D. The suffix “er” means a person in some English words.31. We can get a noun _. A. just by adding “er” to a verb B. by changing a prefix C. only by adding “er” to a root D. by adding a suffix to a verb32. According to the passage, if we talk about a repairman, you can guess that he may be _. A. somebody who has regained (恢复) health B. a person who can repair something C. somebody who has good healthD. a person who can do only simple thingsDThe idea of rain making is almost as old as man, but it was not until 1946 that man succeeded in making rain. In ancient (古代的) times, rainmakers claimed (声称) to be able to bring rain by many methods: dancing, singing, killing various kinds of living creatures (including humans), and blowing a stream of water into the air from a kind of pipe.More recently, some rainmakers claimed to make rain by shooting guns, causing explosions(爆破), or burning chemicals, the smoke of which was supposed to cause rain to fall. These rainmakers asked for as much as 1,000 dollars to make an inch of rain. One was so effective that he was almost hanged(绞死). He was believed to have caused a twenty-inch rain in southern California that flooded the land, killed several people, and did millions of dollarsworth of damage. Before 1946, rainmakers were either liars(撒谎者) or honest people who happened to have good luck. Scientific rain making was started in that year by Vincent J. Schaefer, a scientist at the laboratories of the General Electric Company in New York State. His success was the result of a lucky accident that changed years of failure into victory.33. One rainmaker was almost hanged because _.A. he did not make rain at all.B. he asked for too much money.C. people thought he caused too much rain.D. he killed several people34. According to the writer, which of the following methods can make rain successfully?A. Killing pigs and sheep.B. Blowing a stream of water into the air from a kind of pipe.C. Shooting guns or causing explosions.D. None of the above is right.35. Who was the first rainmaker to succeed in making rain scientifically?A. The one who caused a twenty-inch rain in southern California.B. Before 1946, a rainmaker who happened to have good luck.C. Vincent J. Schaefer, in 1946.D. The passage doesnt tell us his or her name.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 My daughter Chloe is starting out in college in the fall.
