(6分) It is common to believe that learning just takes place in school, but much of human learning happens outside the classroom, even from birth and people continue to learn throughout their lives.Even before they enter school, young children learn to walk, to talk, and to use their hands to use toys, food, and other objects. They use all of their senses to learn about the sights, sounds, tastes, and smells in their environments. They learn how to communicate with their parents, grandparents, siblings, friends, and other people important to their world. When they enter school, children learn subjects like reading, writing, and maths. They also continue to learn a lot outside the classroom. They learn which behaviors are likely to be rewarded and which are likely to be punished. They learn social skills for communicating with other children. After they finish school, people must learn to deal with many changes that affect their lives, such as getting married, raising children, and finding and keeping a job.Because learning continues throughout our lives and affects almost everything we do, the study of learning is important in many different fields. Teachers need to understand the best ways to educate children. Scientists, social workers and other human service workers need to understand how certain experiences change peoples behaviors.Learning is closely related (相关的) to memory, which is the storage of information in the brain (大脑). Scientists who study memory are interested in how the brain stores knowledge, where this storage takes place, and how the brain later offers knowledge when we need it. However, scientists who study learning are more interested in behavior and how behavior changes as a result of a persons experiences. (1)The underlined word “siblings” in Paragraph 2 probably means _.A . teachersB . classmatesC . doctorsD . brothers or sisters(2)When do children begin to know to behave well according to the passage?A . After they go into society.B . Before they enter school.C . When they are at school.D . Before they are born.(3)Which of the following is WRONG according to the passage?A . As a matter of fact, learning begins at a persons birth and last the whole life.B . Teachers need to understand the best ways to educate their students.C . People need to understand how certain experiences change their behaviors.D . Social workers need to study how experiences affect peoples thoughts.18.

For example, a person who is very good at math can go to a famous college but also can be a good football player .This experience made me think again that I must try to find where my own interests might lead me . To be honest, it was not easy . However, I never felt sorry to choose this way because it helped me understand myself . If I took the College Entrance Examination,as we call it gaokao in China, it could never possibly do .When I entered high school, I took gaokao seriously because it seemed to me a great way to show how good at my lessons . However,as I grew older, I realized gaokao did make me work hard at my lessons, but the pressure also pushed many other activities out of my life, like guitarplaying . Although I had no time for it, I will still get to it in the future .No doubt, gaokao provides a way of choosing those who are successful in their studies . But it is really important for all of us to rethink what “ talent ” really is today . This is because we now live in a world in which all of our other human qualities ( 品质)are needed for success, not just the high grade .Ken Robinson once said, “ the society depends on different kinds of talents . ” However, gaokao pays too attention to a persons grades but little to his other qualities. And it is these qualities that makes life colorful and fun .As high school students, we can not change the present situation of eduction, but we are always free to think outside of the box . Although good school grade is still useful, I hope one day we will see our education also welcomes the amazing possibilities in different people .(1)The US College pay special attention to _.A . studentsfamily background .B . the different achievementC . studentsideas about way of life .D . the school a student is from .(2)When at high school, the writer _.A . had a lot of activitiesB . did not work hard at her lessonsC . did well in gaokaoD . had no time to play the guitar .(3)From the passage, we know that the writer may _.A . go to college in AmericaB . give up the US college interview .C . become a good football player in the US.D . change the present situation of eduction .(4)Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A .

Why do earthquakes happen? Scientists tell us the outside of the earth is made of a number of different plates (板块). The plates move very slowly. Sometimes they stop and dont move for a long time. When some of the earths plates move suddenly, an earthquake happens.Many earthquakes happen under the sea. Sometimes they happen near mountains. In fact, earthquakes may happen anywhere on the earth.During an earthquake, the shaking makes rocks rise suddenly and even break openly. Houses fall. People are killed or hurt. Sometimes whole villages or cities are destroyed.Scientists have studied earthquakes and made maps that show earthquake belts. In the areas in these belts, its possible for earthquakes to happen. In these areas we can make houses strong enough to sand against earthquakes.In the future, scientists will be able to predict(预言) exactly when and where an earthquake will happen. They can tell us what to do and how to do as well.(1)Few earthquakes happen in the world every year.(2)The outside of the earth is made of a number of different plates.(3)We can do nothing to keep ourselves safe from earthquake.(4)A map showing the earthquake belts tells people what kind of houses can stand in an earthquake.(5)In the future, scientists can predict exactly when and where an earthquake will happen.21.
