Soon after, the game changed to 5 players on each side, using special basketballs through nets.Although Dr Naismith did not live to see basketball become the worldwide game it is today, in 1936, just three years before his death, basketball became an Olympic sport at the games in Berlin.（1）Which of the following things did Dr James Naismith NOT do?

But Australian researchers have found a way to make something like this possible!A team at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, found a way to put special nanostructures (纳米结构) into clothing, which can then clean the clothes. When sunlight hits the nanostructures, they break down the dirt and stains (污渍) that dont belong on your clothes.The nanostructures dont break down the actual clothing because cotton and the other clothing materials are too strong to be broken down. According to CNN, the researchers cover the clothing in a solution made of silver and copper (铜) nanostructures. All it takes is 40 minutes of sunlight and your clothes will look as good as new.So if you spill on yourself during lunch, you can step outside for a walk, and it will be clean by the time you go inside. It not only makes your life easier, but it can also be good for the environment.According to the US Department of Energy, the average load of laundry uses about 25 gallons (about 94 liters) of water. Water is a very important resource, so using less of it to wash clothesis better for the environment. But one of the scientists at RMIT University knows more needs to be done.“Theres more work to do before we can start throwing out our washing machines,” said Dr Rajesh Ramanathan, “but this is a strong foundation .”So whats the next step? Ramanathan wants to either start selling the solution by itself or convincing clothing makers to treat the clothing with the solution while clothes are being made.（1）What do Paragraphs 4-5 talk about? A . What advantages the self-cleaning clothes have.B . How the self-cleaning clothes work.C . How the self-cleaning clothes are made.D . What helps the self-cleaning clothes work.（2）What does the underlined word “solution”in the last paragraph mean? A . MachinesB . Clothes.C . Silver.D . Design.（3）What can we learn from the passage? A . Silver and copper sell well.B . The solution is not put into practice.C . Clothing makes certainly like the solution.D . We dont need washing machines any more.15. （8分） In the opinion of many people, the twoparent family is the correct way to raise children. Traditionally, this has been as the most natural way, but singleparent families have had to face prejudices(偏见) against their lifestyle. However, the singleparent family is the fastest growing type of family. In the United States, a national survey showed that at least 50% of children will be members of a singleparent family. So we think it is important to throw prejudices away and to see the advantages of singleparent families.When compared to twoparent families, singleparent families are usually at a disadvantage in some ways. They are often in short of money, and children receive less attention. Whats more, single parents can find themselves under too much pressure(压力) of both work and home. Despite(尽管) these disadvantages, it is possible for singleparent families to look for support from friends, schools, communities or other organizations. They need to remember that nobody can do it alone.Surprisingly, singleparent families also have some advantages over twoparent families. Single parents have greater flexibility(灵活性) in spending time with children, because they dont have to consider the needs of a husband or wife. So they can develop closer relationships with their children. Another advantage comes from the fact that single parents often work together with their children to solve problems, which makes children feel more needed and valued.oIts important to remember that singleparent families have, until now suffered prejudices from some people. They think that its easier for the children in singleparent families to drop out of school in teens, and to be jobless in their early twenties. But, with the support from friends, schools and communities, singleparent families become more accepted by society, and this situation is certain to improve. In the future we will probably see these prejudices disappear.（1）What does the writer mainly tell us in Paragraph 1?A . People shouldnt have prejudices against singleparent families.B . The singleparent family is not good for raising children.C . The twoparent family is the correct way to raise children.D . 50% of children will be members of a singleparent family in the USA.（2）Which disadvantage of singleparent families is NOT mentioned in Paragraph 2?A . They are often in short of money.B . Children may receive less attention.C . Children also suffer from the prejudice.D . Parents are under pressure of both work and home.（3）How can single parents make their children feel more needed and valued?A . Dont consider the needs of others.B . Pay more attention to their children.C . Develop closer relationships with their children.D . Discuss and solve problems together with their children.（4）Which of the following may be the best title for this passage?A . Advantages and DisadvantagesB . Changing Views on Singleparent FamiliesC . Best Lifestyle for ChildrenD . Comparing Two Types of Family四、 阅读短文。 (共1题；共5分)16. （5分）根据短文内容从下面方框的7个选项中选出5个还原到文中，使短文意思通顺，结构完整，并将其答案的序号填到相应位置。Dear Zhang Wei,Im in New York now._.

But not everyone knows what to do with them, especially the young people. Here is a story for you. You may find out the answer.There was a little boy visiting his grandparents on their farm. He was playing with a slingshot(弹弓) in the woods one day. He practiced a lot, but he could never hit his target(目标). He felt bored and went back for dinner.As he was walking back, he saw Grandmas pet duck. He used his slingshot one more time. He hit the duck in the head and killed it. He was very sad and afraid. He hid the dead duck in the woods. Then he saw his sister watching him. Sally saw it all, but she said nothing. After lunch that day Grandma said, “Sally, lets wash the dishes.” But Sally said, “Grandma, Johnny told me that he wanted to help in the kitchen today, didnt you, Johnny?” and then she said to him in a low voice, “Remember, the duck!” So Johnny washed the dishes.After several days of doing both his housework and Sallys, Johnny couldnt stand it any longer. He told Grandma that he killed the duck. She smiled, “I know. You see, I was standing at the window and I saw what you did. But I just wanted to know how long you would be your sisters slave(奴隶).”My friends, have you ever made such mistakes? As the saying goes, “Who can make no mistakes?” Next time when you do something wrong, youd better say sorry to others.
