Well，Im happy to tell you what I knowWhen I started school here，it had already been a week since the schoo1 openedAt thisschool，freshmen usually go on a trip for about three days at the beginning of school.Unfortunately I missed that wonderful tripwhich would have been the best time to get to knowmy classmatesI was really sadI wished Id known about it earlier.Despite the disappointment，however，I gradually adapted to my new life and schoo1There is a space in the basement of the teaching building where students chat and meet each otherAs we do not always have the same classrooms and classmates，the school wants us to get to know each other thereStudents usually come to school early，sit in that space and have funAround the space，there are many lockers for students to leave their books in，so that students do not have to carry a heavy schoolbag everywhereIt really surprises me that we have almost no textbooksWe only have textbooks for WorldHistory and Algebra and they are big and heavy，like bricksFor other classes，we only needbinders(活页夹)with paper in themWithout textbooks，students learn things freely and activelyFor example，my humanities teacher just teaches us what is in her mind at the timeWe never know what we will learnAnother difference between American schools and Chinese schools is that American schools care about students morality more than their academic studiesFor example，if you do not finish your homework，you will just be asked to do it later，but if you cheat or lie，you will get a warning or even be kicked outI think that most students here are good at schoolwork as well，but compared to Chinesestudents，they can make learning a more joyful experienceI think we should take the good points from our two different kinds of education to perfect our approach to studying21What was the writer sad for?AHe was late for schoo1BHe missed the trip at the beginning of schoo1CHe didnt know anyoneDAmerican students looked down upon him22Why do students go to the basement of the teaching building?ATo attend classBTo share a classroomCTo have funDTo meet teachers23According to the passage，in American high schools，_Ayou are likely to be kicked out if you cheatByou11 be punished if you do not finish your homeworkCstudents are better at school work than Chinese studentsDstudents care much about the grades they getBThe new high-speed railway line between Urumqi，capital of the Xinjiang Uygur self-governing region，and Lanzhou，capital of Gansu province，has cut train travel time by half to less than 12 hoursThe dramatic improvement will benefit many families planning reunions for Spring Festival“For the first time，I feel home is not that far away after all，”said Liang Shaofu as he boarded a high-speed train in Urumqi with six members of his familyThe 35-year-old left Lanzhou to set up a dry fruit business in Xinjiang eight years ago，and he has now settled in UrumqiThe 1,776-km line，which passes through Qinghai province and is the countrys firsthigh-speed railway to be built in a high-altitude region，came into service on Dec 26“We normally drive home for Spring Festival to avoid the difficulties of buying seven train tickets for the whole family during the peak season，”Liang said“Driving can be very tiring and dangerous sometimes，so one year we even decided not to go back to Lanzhou simply to avoid the trip”More than 600，000 passengers traveled on the line during its first month，and the Urumqi Railway Bureau said the introduction of high-speed services will ease transport pressure during the Spring Festival peak seasonThe existing usual railway line could no longer support Xinjiangs developmentAllpassenger trains will gradually shift to the new link，leaving the old one to be used for goodsAs a result，Xinjiangs annual goods ability could reach 200 million metric tons from the current 70 millionThe line passes through areas that experience high winds，and it also crosses parts of thedeserted Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the bone-dry sands of the Gobi DesertThe project could help China to promote its high-speed railway technology abroad，said Ma Xi zhang，director of the Lanzhou-Xinjiang railway projects management department in Xinjiang.24How long did it take to go from Urumqi to Lanzhou by the usual train before?Aabout 12 hoursBAbout 6 hoursCAbout 18 hoursDAbout 24 hours25Whats the main advantage of the new high-speed railway?AIt takes more time to go to Urumqi to LanzhouBIt will be more convenient for people all over the country to XinjiangCAll the people in Lanzhou can return home on festivalsDIt helps to improve Xinjiangs development26From the passage we can learn_.AXinjiangs annual goods ability can increase nearly four timesBthe new railway technology may help more railway lines to be built abroadCthe high-speed railway lines cant be built across the bone-dry sandsDthe old railway lines can only carry goods now27Which of the following is true according to the passage?AThe new high-speed railway line is good for all people to go homeBThe new high-speed railway line benefits businessmen to carry goodsCTaking the new train is safer than driving home from Urumqi to LanzhouDBusinessmen seldom went home for Spring Festival beforeCIn the animal kingdom，weakness can bring about aggression in other animalThis sometimes happens with humans alsoBut I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in peopleI see it every day when people hold doors for me，pour cream into my coffee，or help me to put on my coatAnd I have discovered that it makes them happyFrom my wheelchair experience，I see the best in people，but sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see dailyThey dont get to see this soft side of others often；we try every way possible to avoid，showing our weakness，which includes a lot of pretendingBut only when we stop pretending were brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness thats in themLast month，when I was driving home on a busy highway，I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usualPeople behind me began to get impatient and angry，with some speeding up alongside me，homing(按喇叭)or even shouting at meAt the moment I decided to do something I had never done in twenty four years of drivingI put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speedNo more angry shouts and no more horns!When I put on my flashlights，I was saying to other drivers，“I have a problem hereI amweak and doing the best I can”And everyone understoodSeveral times，I saw drivers whowanted to passThey couldnt get around me because of the stream of passing trafficBut instead of getting impatient and angry，they waited，knowing the driver in front of them wasin some way weakSometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we dont feel thatwayBut those are and far betweenMore often，it would be better if we dont pretend we feelstrong when we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we are scared28The author has discovered that people will feel happy when_Athey offer their helpBthey receive others helpCthey feel others kindness Dthey show their weakness29The author feels sad sometimes because_Ahe has a soft heartBhe relies much on othersCsome people pretend to be kind Dsome people fail to see the kindness in others30In this passage，the author advises us to_Ahandle problems by ourselvesBaccept help from othersCadmit our weakness Dshow our bravery31Which of the following is the best title for the passage?AWheelchair ExperienceBWeakness and KindnessCWeakness and Strength DA Driving ExperienceDWe know the famous onesthe Thomas Edisons and the Alexander Graham Bellsbutwhat about the less famous inventors? What about the people who invented the traffic lightand the windshield wiper(雨刮器)? Shouldnt we know who they are?Joan Mclean thinks soIn fact，Mclean，a professor of physics at Mountain University inRange，feels so strongly about this matter that shes developed a course on the topicInaddition to learning “who” invented “what”，however，Mclean also likes her students to learnthe answers to the “why and how” questionsAccording to Mclean“When students learnthe answers to these questions，they are better prepared to recognize opportunities forinventing and more motivated to give inventing a tryHer students agreeOne young man with a patent for an unbreakable umbrella is walkingproof of McLeans statement“If I had not heard the story of the windshield wipersinvention，”said Tommy Lee, a senior physics major，“I never would have dreamed of turningmy bad experience during a rainstorm into something so constructive”Lee is currentlynegotiating to sell his patent to an umbrella producerSo，just what is the story behind the windshield wiper Well，Mary Anderson came upwith the idea in 1902 after a visit to New York CityThe day was cold and stormy，butAnderson still wanted to see the sights，so she jumped aboard a streetcarNoticing that the driver was struggling to see through the snow covering the windshield，she found herself wondering why there couldnt be a builtin device for cleaning the windowStill wondering about this when she returned home to Birmingham，Alabama, Anderson started drafting out solutionsOne of her ideas，a lever(操作杆)on the inside of a vehicle that would control an arm on the outside，became the first windshield wiperToday we benefit from countless inventions and innovationsIts hard to imagine drivingwithout Garrett AMorgans traffic lightIts equally impossible to picture a world withoutKatherine JBlodgetts innovation that makes glass invisibleCan you picture life withoutclear windows and eyeglasses?32By mentioning “traffic light” and “windshield wiper”the author indicates that countless inventions are_Abeneficial，because their inventors are famousBbeneficial，though their inventors are less famousCnot useful，because their inventors are less famousDnot useful，though their inventors are famous33Professor Joan McLeans course aims to_.Aadd color and variety to students campus lifeBinform students of the windshield wipers inventionCcarry out the requirements by Mountain UniversityDprepare students to try their own inventions34Tommy Lees invention of the unbreakable umbrella was_Anot eventually accepted by the umbrella producerBinspired by the story behind the windshield wiperCdue to his dream of being caught in a rainstormDnot related to Professor Joan McLeans lectures35Which of the following can best serve as the title of this passage?AHow to Help Students to Sell Their Inventions to ProducersBHow to Design a Built-in Device for Cleaning the WindowCShouldnt We Know Who Invented the Windshield WiperDShouldnt We Develop Invention Courses in Universities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。Although problems are a part of our lives，it certainly doesnt mean that we let them rule our lives foreverOne day or the
