They serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson or help find out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be: your classmate, neighbor, teacher, long-lost friend or even a real stranger. But you know that every moment they will affect your life in some serious way.Sometimes things happen to you. At the time they may seem terrible, painful and unfair. But later you realize that without getting over those difficulties you would have never realized your further ability and strength. Everything happens for a reason and nothing happens by chance or with good or bad luck.The people you meet affect your life, and the successes and failure(失败)you experience, create who you are. Even the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most poignant and important ones.Enjoy every day even every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people you have never talked to before, and really listen. You should set your sights high, hold your head up, tell yourself you are a great one and believe in yourself.You can make your life anything you wish.

And surely they get their news online. But because they are so comfortable with the Internet, they seldom question the news stories online and pass along to their friends.Now William Colglazier, a history teacher at a high school in America, is teaching his students how to think critically about online information and recognize a fake(假的)news story. His idea came from a study on peoples online reasoning at Stanford University. The study found that young people lack(缺少)ability to reason about the information on the Internet. Most middle school students in the study could not tell the difference between an advertisement and a news story, and high school and college students fully trusted the websites ending inorg.The good news is that, according to Colglazier, once teens realize theyve been duped, they have strong will to tell truth from lies. But they need some pointers on how to find dependable and persuasive evidence(证据)and how to recognize when others use poor argumentation, he said. Some of the pointersthat Colglazier offers his students include moving off the site to find more information about the site and the writers motivations(动机), looking past the first page of results in a google search and looking at the second or third page, and going beyond the About Us page on a website to find out more about the organization behind the news story.Colglazier has tips for parents as well. He says its a good idea for parents to be friends with their kids on social media(媒体)to see what stories they are sharing. He also suggests parents watch their teens as they search for something online and ask questions like Why did you click on that? and Do you trust this information? Those questions can lead kids to form habits of thinking critically about online information.Colglazier shared some of his course with other teens in Teen Vogue, a famous magazine. He hopes more kids would take away some knowledge about thinking critically when they read news online. The Internet is both beautiful and ugly, he said. If people cannot tell real news from fake news, the results can be frightening.(1)When teens read a news story online, they .A . seldom raise doubts about itB . always share it with their parentsC . usually pay attention to the websiteD . often consider it as an advertisement(2)The word duped in Paragraph 3 probably means . A . criticizedB . cheatedC . challengedD . misunderstood(3)Colglazier suggests students should . A . make more friends by using social mediaB . find background information about a news storyC . mainly look at the first page of results in a searchD . ask parents some questions about online information(4)What is the writers main purpose in writing this passage? A . To explain why teens feel comfortable with the Internet.B . To encourage teens to search for information online.C . To guide teens to reason about the news online.D . To introduce Colglaziers course to more teens.7. (6分)阅读理解 Today most countries have at least one airline that flies to foreign countries and one airline that flies inside the country. Some countries have several of each.The worlds first passenger airline was called the St. Petersburg Tampa Airboat Line. This St. Petersburg was in Florida in the USA, and the airline took passengers on a 20-mile flight across Tampa Bay. It operated for only four months from January 1914.The first European airline flew every day from Berlin to Weimar called Deutsche Lutt-Reederei (DLR). It started to operate on 6 February 1919. At first it carried only mail and newspapers, but before long it took passengers as well. The planes were open to the air so passengers had to wear special clothing and shoes to protect them from the wind, rain and cold.In March 1919 the first international airline began to operate. Lignes Aeriennes Farman flew once a week between Paris and Brussels. The journey took two hours and 50 minutes. Later that year, an English airline, Air Transport and Travel, flew every day from London to Paris.Although the first passenger flights took place in the USA, the development of air travel in America was strangely slow; it was not until 1926 that there were any regular passenger services there. It was not until 1939 that the first service across the North Atlantic began to operate. This was a service by the Pan American Boeing 314 flying boat, Yankee Clipper, which took 18 hours and 42 minutes to cover the journey between Newfoundland in North America and Southampton in England. The journey now takes about four hours by Boeing 777 and half that by Concorde.Today for many people air travel is as much part of their lives as traveling by boat, car or train. Although it has not seriously affected travel by car or train, it has caused many shipping lines to stop carrying passengers, as most people now prefer to make long journeys by air rather than by sea.(1)The first passenger airline . A . traveled across land to TampaB . operated in RussiaC . operated only for a short timeD . started in a famous city(2)DLR carried . A . mail and newspapers onlyB . passengers onlyC . shoes and clothingD . mail at first, then passengers later(3)The flight across the Atlantic by Concorde takes . A . two hoursB . two hours and 50 minutesC . four hoursD . 18 hours and 42 minutes(4)The story is about . A . the history of flightB . the development of passenger air travelC . the invention of the first planeD . the development of the first airline8.

(8分) One day when some government officials were rebuilding a barn(谷仓), they found a mouse hole in a corner and used smoke to force the mice inside the hole to come out. A while later they indeed saw mice running out, one after another. Then, everyone thought that all the mice had escaped. But just as they began to clean up, they saw two mice squeezing(挤)out at the mouth of the hole. With some efforts, the mice finally got out. However, it was strange that after they came out of the hole, they did not run away at once. Instead, one chased after the other near the mouth of the hole. It seemed that one was trying to bite the tail of the other.Everyone was puzzled, so they stepped nearer to take a look. They realized that one of the mice was blind and could not see anything, and the other was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite on his tail so that he could pull the blind one with him to escape.After seeing what happened, everyone was speechless and lost in thought. During the meal time, the group of people sat down in a circle and started to chat about what happened to the two mice.One serious American official said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of king and guard.” The others thought for a while and said: “That was why!”A smart French said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of husband and wife.” Again the others thought for a while, and all felt it made sense.A Japanese said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of mother and son.” Once again the others thought for a while, and felt this was more reasonable. So they expressed agreement another time.At that moment, one Chinese asked: “Why did those two mice have to have a certain relationship?”Suddenly, the group looked back at the Chinese and remained speechless. The American official, the French and the Japanese who had spoken earlier all lowered their heads in shame, and did not dare to answer.In fact, the true love is not built on friendship, loyalty or blood relationship. Instead, it is based on no relationship.(1)“it made sense” probably means _.A . it was strangeB . it was correctC . it was sweetD . it was funny(2)Why did they lower their heads in shame according to the passage?A .
