I am now a fourth-grade teacher and I am really glad to wele you and your child to my classroom this year. I graduated from the University of California. I majored (主修) in English Literature. And later I got my diploma (毕业文凭) in Early Childhood Education from the same university. I have taught pupils for five years, though I have worked at Sunshine School for only three years. I am interested in reading and I have a blog which I use to express my opinions. Besides, I am always ready to meet new people and learn different languages and cultures.I am looking forward to meeting and knowing each student of my class and their parents. This year will be a challenging one for your child as pared to last year. However, I will try to make the lessons easier and more interesting so that each child can understand and enjoy the lessons at the same time. In addition, I dont just want to improve their academic achievements. I am planning activities to develop the creative skills and interests of my students. I hope to make this academic year an educational and fun-filled year for them.If you would like to meet me to discuss your childs performance or any other problems that he/she is facing in class, you can feel free to meet me during break times. I would apprecitate (感激) it if you could tell me a day before to fix the meeting. And you can also e-mail me at Karie_ 1234 sunshine. to discuss any concern you have about your child. Yours sincerely, Karen Winget 56. What do we learn about the author from Paragraph 1?A. She has just graduated from university. B. She began to teach three years ago.C. She is a primary school teacher. D. She teaches English Literature at Sunshine School.57. In the new academic year, the author is trying to _.A. be strict with each student of her class B. meet more parents during break timesC. provide activities to improve the students health D. improve the students academic achievements and develop their interests 58. Why does the author tell the parents her e-mail address?A. To introduce her teaching plans to the parentsB. To tell the parents how to fix the meetingC. To discuss the students problems with the parents D. To show her concern about the students BThere are volcanoes (火山) all over the world. Volcanoes can destroy houses, farmlands, and forests. Volcanoes can kill a large number of people. In 1792, a Japanese volcano killed 15,000 people. In 1985, a volcano in Colombia buried (埋葬) a town. And in 1991, a volcano in the Philippines could have been one of the worst events in history, but the Philippine government acted quickly. They moved over 80,000 people away from the volcano. In the end, only 700 people died. So clearly, volcanoes are dangerous. But there are also around 360 million people who live near volcanoes. This raises one question: why would they do this?There are several different reasons. The first is that a volcano can create very good soil. The lava (火山岩), minerals, and hot ash are good for farming. They help the soil stay wet. They contain minerals that help plants grow. For example, the Indonesian island of Java has three live volcanoes. This makes people harvest several rice crops every season.Another reason people live near volcanoes is geo-thermal energy (地热能源). People use the heat from the volcano to create electricity. This is very mon. Over twenty countries around the world use some geo-thermal energy. The country of Iceland gets around 17% of their electricity in this way. Iceland also uses the heat from volcanoes to warm greenhouses.Volcanoes can also be beautiful. The islands of Hawaii are a series of volcanoes. Over seven million people visit Hawaii every year. These people spend money on hotels, boat rides, and food. People even pay to see the volcanoes. It can be exciting to be close to something so powerful. Many people who live near volcanoes make money from these visitors.Another reason people live around dangerous volcanoes is that they feel safe. Most volcanoes do not explode (爆炸) that often. People can live their whole life by a volcano and never see it explode. So when scientists warn people that a volcano is going to explode, they may refuse to think about the warning.59. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Why people live near volcanoes B. Who likes to live near volcanoes C. The benefits of living near volcanoes D. The danger of volcanoes 60. Which place makes good use of geo-thermal energy from volcanoes?A. The Indonesian island of Java B. Iceland C. Hawaii D. Japan 61. How do volcanoes benefit people in Hawaii?A. They produce good soil for crops B. They produce cheap electricity C. They draw many visitors D. They produce heat to warm greenhouses 62. We learn from the last paragraph that _.A. volcanoes seldom explode B. people may ignore(忽视) the danger of volcanoesC. volcanoes are mostly dead ones D. the warning given by scientists may not be correct CTake a look inside a high school classroom. You will most likely find a teacher at the front of the class and students sitting at their desks. Yet, look closer, and you might notice a familiar scene: many of these students are not paying attention. Instead, they are dozing off (打盹) or even pletely asleep.Today, the majority of high school students are not getting enough sleep. This lack (缺乏) of sleep is a serious problem, especially as students are doing more than ever with their time. They e to school early, spend hours listening to teachers and taking tests, then run off to practices and meetings, and e home to be faced with even more work. And the homework load these days is not light; teachers give hours worth of homework each night.Most kids need at least nine hours of sleep per night in order to function properly. Yet the period of this nine hours shifts as a child gets older. After puberty(青春期),the bodys internal clock changes so that it is difficult for teens to fall asleep before 11 p.m. So even if a student falls asleep at eleven, they would need to sleep until at least 8 a.m. to get a full nights sleep. Considering the time at which most high schools in this country begin, those nine hours are clearly being shortened. Few high schools start after 8 a.m.However, there are schools that have paid attention to this research and pushed backward the start of their school day. In schools where the start time is after 8:30 in the morning, the teachers believe that there has been a real change in their students. They note that the students miss class less, pay more attention in class, perform better in class, and report lower levels of depression (沮丧). The researchers of these studies say that the results are quite important and that more schools should consider pushing backward their start time of their school day. 63. Which of the following would the author agree with?A. High school students must go to bed before 10 p.m.B. High schools should begin their school day at a later time.C. Most schools should push forward the start of their school day.D. Kids should shorten their sleep time gradually as they grow older.64. The second paragraph mainly discuss _.A. why high school students should get more sleepB. whats life like for high school students at presentC. why high school students feel sleepy in the classroomD. how to lighten high school students homework load 65. The underlined word “shifts” probably means “_”.A. arrives B. reduces C. increases D. changes 66. How do the teachers feel about the results from pushing backward their school day?A. Disappointed B. Satisfied C. Puzzled D. Surprised DDespite their name, the Want Family dont want much. They want enough money for a nice house and a holiday every year. But they dont want to be millionaires. They want to do well at their jobs. But they dont want to be the big boss. They do want to spend time improving their garden, visiting their families and taking their two kids, Nicolas and Leuan, to Mc Donalds for lunch. But they dont want to be famous. The Wants just want to be normal. Thats why they are famous. They have been selected as the most normal family in Britain. After a six-month search for the most ordinary family in Britain, the Wants were selected from hundreds of applicants. John wants a job in marketing for a food pany. Claire has a part-time job renting out childrens play equipment. John doesnt understand why they were chosen to represent ordinary English families. How are they normal?That is not a bad question. Nearly everyone does some of the things that the Wants do. But very few people do all of them. There have been great changes in the social structure of British life. It is being more mon for people to have children when they are older than the Wants, and to have one child instead of two. A household with two children may be headed by a single parent, usually the mother. Or perhaps dad and mum are still together, but not married. Or maybe dad and mum are married. Dad goes out to work and mum stays at home and looks after the kids. They have traditional valuesEvery weekend the whole family goes to church.“What we have here is not an average family, but a traditional family,” says Cary Cooper, professor of philosophy at Lancaster University. “There is no such thing as a normal family anymore, in the way there was 20 or 30 years ago. Of course the Wants exist, but for what do we need to celebrate them?” Perhaps because we think normal families are an endangered species. Examples of them have to be preserved（保护）to show future generations.67. The Wants were selected as the most normal family in Britain because_.A. they represent traditional English families B. they dont want much C. they dont want to be famous D. they want to be normal68. The following statements describe the great changes in British life EXCEPT that_.A. people have kids later than 20 or 30 years ago B. some children are brought up by a single parentC. most families go to church every weekend D. its more mon for families to have only one kind69. We may infer from the passage that _.A. most British families hold traditional values B. traditional families are being fewer and fewerC. future generations are expected to study traditional familiesD. traditional families no longer exist in Britain70. What might be the most suitable title for this passage?
