And as for sea travel ,it hardly deserves mention ,It is perfectly summed up in the words of the old song：I joined the navy to see the world ,and what did I see? I saw the sea. You mention the place names in the world like EI Dorado, Kabul and someone is sure to sayIve been theremeaning ,I drove through it at 100 miles an hour on the way to somewhere else.When you travel at high speeds, the present means nothing :you live mainly in the future because you spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place, But actual arrival ,when it is achieved , is meaningless , You want to move on again . By traveling like this, you suspend （中止）all experience; the present stops being a reality：you might just as well be dead.The traveler on foot, on the other hand , lives constantly in the present, For him traveling and arriving are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he makes, He experiences, the present moment with his eyes, his ears and the whole of his body, At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical tiredness, Satisfying sleep will be his: the just reward of all true travelers.41、The underlined words “get in your way”in Paragraph I can be replaced, by .A、block your sightsB、expend your range of visionC、prevent you from going out of the plane halfwayD、make your travel continue42、What does the author think of the travelers mentioned in Paragraph 1?A、They get a good view of the landscapeB、They make full use of their eyesC、They fail to see the scenery with their heartD、They are eager to see everything on the way.43、Why does “the present”mean “nothing ”when we travel at high speeds?A、Because we change our aims all the timeB、Because we are eager to go to another placeC、Because we are looking forward to the future lifeD、Because we cannot enjoy the experience we have had44、What will the author most probably advise us to do?A、To go hiking in the mountainB、To travel at a high speedC、To travel by car or trainD、To go around the world45、What would be the best title for the passage?A、Different travelersB、The use of eyesC、Ways of travelingD、True travelingBIt was the beginning of the school year a few years ago and I had a little boy in my class who came from a non English speaking home, He was very quiet and shy, I wasnt sure how much he understood during the school day and I was especially concerned that he just stood by himself at break time and did not play, If I tried to talk to him , he would turn away and tightly shut his eyes to hide from me.After a day or two of this, I decided to seek the help from one of my outgoing and friendly little girls, I called her over and she ran to me , ready to help.I immediately began a long speech about what I needed from her, I asked her if she would try to get him to play, and I started talking quickly about all these suggestions on how she could start munication with him , I explained she could do that , she could try this idea, she could try that idea, “Dont worry, I speak kid” And she ran off.I stood there all alone, silently watching her, It took less than a minute for the two new friends to urn off, hand in hand , happily joining a game of tag （捉人游戏）taking place all over the gym.I often think of that small moment, about what I learned and how important it is for all teachers to speak kid - big kid, little kid and middle kid , I know my focus must be on teaching students how to think , how to approach problems ,and how to figure out solutions and teaching them never to let the opportunity away , We must be ready to learn from our students because those “teachable moments ”during the school days are for us , the teachers, as well as our kids.46、Why did the author worry about the boy?A、He didnt dare to look at the author in the eyesB、He couldnt speak English as well as other studentsC、He failed to understand what the author taughtD、He was unwilling to municate with others47、After the girl agreed to help, the author A、taught

chance to A、play at break timeB、learn from studentsC、solve problemsD、speak kid50、What can we learn from the passage?A、Gold will shine everywhereB、Children are more friendly than adultsC、Teachers thoughts are different form studentsD、You learn something every day if you pay attentionCThe name sounds funny but the idea is no joke: its a personal toilet called the pee-pool, Anders Wilhelmson, a Swedish architect, is the inventor of the pee-pool.He became interested in the idea of sanitation(卫生设施) after taking part in a research project on the social and political development of cities, One of the most mon problems he found in developing countries was the lack of toilets, He wanted to do something to help, So working with others, he started the project in xx, and the next year started a pany called Peepoolple.The toilet is a singleuse bag made of environmentally friendly plastics, The inside is treated with urea （尿素）, a chemical monly used as fertilizer, The hotter the weather, the more quickly the waste turns into what is needed by plants The sanitation process can be as soon as a couple of hours or as long as two to four weeks ,You can just bury it in a pot and grow whatever you like.The pany expects to start selling the bags in August in Kenya and Bangladesh, But it is just beginning production and sales in Nairobi now , Full production could reach about half a million bags a day and people may be able to buy the pee-pool in countries Vietnam, Bangladesh, etc.The United Nations says more than two and a half billion people around the world do not have good sanitation ,Many have no choice but to use the outdoors, which is not only bad for the environment ,but also harmful to peoples health, Each year, poor sanitation leads to three fifths of those people getting an infectious disease which on average causes one out of 1,000 patients to die.Jack Smith ,the founder of the World Toilet Organization ,says “This is quite an unacceptable situation given the fact that we are living in the modem world , And strangely, many of them own televisions ,phones but have no toilet.”51、What was the original purpose of Anders Wilhelmson in starting the pany?A、To protect the local environmentB、To earn a lot of money from the projectC、To do research on the social developmentD、To help solve the problem of lack of toilets in developing countries52、What can be learned about the pee-pool from the passage?A、It can be used over againB、Its sanitation process doesnt last longC、It works better in summer than in winterD、It should be buried in a pot after being used53、In which place can people buy the Pee-pool now?A、NairobiB、VietnamC、SwedenD、Bangladesh54、The fifth paragraph is written mainly to tell us that A、poor sanitation may cause many problemsB、many people dont care for the environmentC、many people get ill from using the outdoorsD、quite a number of people died from poor sanitation55、The underlined word“This ”in the last paragraph probably refers to A、the outdoors being damagedB、many places being shout of toiletsC、many people having TVs and phonesD、many people getting an infection diseaseDMany parents have learned the hard way that what sounds like open munication is otfen the very thing that closes a youngsters ears and mouth, One mon mistake is the Lecture, the long monologue that often starts with “When I was your age”Eighteen year old Kelly calls lectures “Long , one-side discussions in which I dont say much.”Kids reflexively（条件反射地）shout down in the face of a lecture , Their eyes glaze over（呆滞）,and they dont register any ining information , Listen to 13-year old Sarah describe her least favorite times with her mom and dad, “First, they scream, Then es the“Were so disappointed speech , Then the I never did that to my parents lecture begins , After that, even if they realize how ridiculous they sound, they never take it back”.Lines like “When you have children of your own, youll understand” have been seriously said by parents since time immemorial, But many of our expert parents, like Bobby , a registered nurse and mother of three, feel that by falling back on cliches（陈词滥调）to justify our actions, we weaken our position.Since kids are creatures of here and now, the far-off future has no relevance to them, Therefore ,good municators like Bobby suggest, “Give specific reasons for your actions in present language:Im not letting you go to the party because I dont think there will be enough adult supervisions（监护）”。Betty, who lives in Missouri ,uses and indirect approach, “I find that warnings are accepted more readily if I discuss a news article on a subject I am concerned about, My husband and I talk about it while our children absorb the information, Then they never think Im preaching（布道）”.This really helped when Bettys kids began driving , Instead of constantly repeating “Dont drink; dont speed”, She would talk about articles in the paper and express sympathy for the victims of a car crash, Betty made no special effort to draw her kids into the conversation, She depended on a teenagers strong desire to put in his opinionsespecially if he thinks he isnt being asked for them.56、The purpose of the passage is to A、pare two ways of parents municating with their kidsB、give parents advice on how to municate with their kidsC、explain why kids wont listen to their parentsD、introduce kids reaction to the munication between them and their parents57、Which of the following statements is NOT right?A、Kids wont listen to their parents because they think what their parents say is boringB、Many kids think they have no right to express their own opinionsC、Some kids think their parents should apologize when they are wrongD、Kids dont like any discussion at all.58、What does the underlined word in the first paragraph mean?A、独白B、对话C、插话D、讨论59、Which of the following topic may appeal to kids?A、Parents own experienceB、Kids possible life in the futureC、Something related to kids present lifeD、What parents have done to their own parents60、In order to make kids follow their advice, parents should A、tell their kids to listen carefullyB、set out their warnings directlyC、list out as many examples as possibleD、arouse kids desire to express themselvesEThe British arent having as many children as they used to , One reason is that people are having children much older than before, meaning they have fewer year in which they can have them, After years at university ,they need a few years of work experience before they can get the job they want, They might then get married, but its incredibly expensive to buy a house in the UK.The above explains why young British people now dont move out of their parents home until they are around 30 years old on average, Its only after this age that many young people start thinking about having a child , However , it is quite expensive to bring up a child in the UK, Both parents need to work just to pay for their child during the day, Paying for this childcare is always expensive, Whats more ,financial crisis and unemployment are making things even harder for families, With so much pressure on families, is it any surprise that the divorce rate is so high?So what is Britain doing to try and save the British family ? The government is trying to make it cheaper to have children , For example ,there are increasing government subsidies for nursery schools, so that parents do not need to bay so much for child care.The government is also trying to reduce the number of hours British parents have to work to earn enough money to pay their bills, If parents didnt have to work so many hours, theyd have moue time to spend with their children and wouldnt need to spend so much on childcare, On average, a Briton works 49 hours a week ,which is the most in Europe, The state is now considering introducing laws to encourage panies to improve their employees work life balance, Lets hope theyre not too late to save the British family , Otherwise, the British will always be too tired ,and wont have enough time and money, to have children.61、Young British people live in their parents home until around 30 because A、They are allowed to get married at 30B、they cant allowed to get married at 30C、they cant afford a house of their own until thenD、they enjoy family life with their parents62、The British are now having fewer children than before for all the following reasons EXCEPT that A、they have fewer years to have childrenB、they live much shorter lives than beforeC、it is more expensive to bring up a childD、people are losing their jobs because of the recent financial crisis63、The underlined word “subsidies” in Paragraph 5 means A、food paid by the govern
