I will never forget the lesson about my window. Four years ago, I moved to a house in a large town. One of my new neighbors’ house was only a few feet away from mine. There lived a woman. Through one of my windows, I could see her reading by her window every afternoon.

Several months later, I found I couldn’t see the woman clearly. I thought her window was too dirty. I said to myself, “Why doesn’t she clean her window? It looks terrible!”

One afternoon, I decided to clean my house including (包括) the window. I felt tired after three hours of hard work. So I sat down by the window for a rest. What a surprise! I could see the woman reading there clearly again!By that time, I realized that my own window was too dirty, not hers!I really felt ashamed for myself.

- Passage 2 -

One afternoon, in Paris, I took a trip to an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting. I was looking forward to a quiet view of some great paintings of excellent artists.

A young couple looking at the paintings in front of me were talking non-stop. I watched them a moment and decided she was doing all the talking. In fact, I was surprised at this man for putting up with her everlasting speech. Bored by their noise, I moved on.

I met them several times as I moved through those rooms of art. Each time I heard her voice, I moved away at once.

I was standing at the museum gift shop buying some cards when the couple walked to the exit (出口).

“He’s a brave man,” said the shop assistant. “Most of us would give up if we were blinded at such a young age. But he and his wife come in whenever there’s a new art show.”

It explained the non-stop talk! A sudden sense of shame came to my heart for what I was thinking just now. “But what does he get out of the art?” I asked.

“His wife describes each painting so he can see it in his head.”

At that moment I realized what is patience, courage and love.

My name is Sam. I joined a club called “passing help” last month. Now let me tell you why I joined it.

One evening this May, on my way home my old car broken down (出故障). It was 25 miles from my home. I wanted to get a ride (搭便车), but there was no car. It was also hard to take a taxi. I decided to take a bus home. I went to a bus stop nearby.

- Passage 1 -

New rules and behavior standards (标准) for middle school students came out in March. Middle School is going to use a new way to decide who the top students are. The best students won’t only have high marks. They will also be kids who don’t dye their hair, smoke or drink. The following are some of the new rules.

Tell the truth. Have you ever copied someone else’s work in an exam? Don’t do it again! That’s not what an honest student should do. If you have played computer games for two hours in your room, don’t tell your parents you have done homework.

Do more at school. Good students are kind to other people and love animals. April is a bird loving month in China. Is your school doing anything to celebrate? You should join! That way, you can learn more about animals and how to protect them. When more people work together, it makes it more fun for everyone.

Have you ever quarreled with your teammates when your basketball team lost? Only working together can make your team stronger. Be friendly to the people you are with. Try to think of others, not only yourself.

Be open to new ideas. Have you ever thought that people could live on the moon? Maybe we will discover Earth II some day. Don’t look down on new ideas. Everyone’s ideas are important. You should welcome them, because new ideas make life better for everyone.

Protect yourself. Has someone ever taken money from one of your classmates? Don’t let it happen to you. If you have to go home late, you should take care of yourself and let your parents know.

Use the internet carefully. The internet can be useful for your studies. But something on the internet isn’t good for kids, so try to look at Web pages that are good sites for children.

- Passage 2 -

Reading Oliver James’ Affluenza, I thought about what often happens at home. My 12-year-old daughter is in tears. “I have to take a test tomorrow. I don’t understand any of it,” she cries out. After shouting and shutting her door, she calms down enough to go through her notes. The following day I ask her how the test went and she just says “OK, I got a nine”.

“Wow. Well done!” I say, before she finishes with “But I never get a ten!”

According to James, this obsession with getting top marks has been a bad development, which encourages people to think of education in terms of work and money. To test this, I asked my daughter why she was so worried about her tests. She looked at me as if I was thick. “Well, if I don’t get good grades, I won’t be able to afford nice things like a car and stuff.”

I was quite surprised, because I don’t consider myself a pushy parent. But James suggests and it leaves students feeling failures even if they are very bright. He points to the Danish system (体制) of education as a better model. Creating happy citizens who have good social skills is seen as more important than high achievements at school or the needs of business.

For me, I cannot remember the last time I had to work out the area of a circle, recite a Shakespeare poem or grammar rules, yet I have lived a happy life. What I really needed to learn at school was how to make polite conversations, or how to avoid getting into debt or how to develop good personality.

This is in fact similar to what Oliver James really has in mind. And he is looking for schools where students are encouraged to find and follow their own interests, something more like Tongjon. Tongjon has been developed in some Korean private schools. It is quite different from the more rigid system of learning things by heart that is used in Korea, and indeed in many other school systems around the world.

As the Russian poet Pushkin said, “Inspiration (灵感) is needed in geometry (几何学) just as much as in poetry”, and inspiration does not come from endlessly revising for tests or getting worried about them.

( )1. What does the writer probably think of his / her daughter?

A. She sets herself a goal too high to reach.

B. She should be more polite to her parents.

C. She is hard-working but not very bright.

D. She takes her grades much too seriously.

( )2. What does the word obsession in paragraph 3 mean?

A. A plain and unavoidable fact. B. A satisfied and very proud state.

C. A practical and widely-used way. D. A fixed and often unreasonable idea.

( )3. What can we infer from the passage?

A. Social skills are as important as high grades.

B. Interest in grades can shake self-confidence.

C. The writer regrets not having studied hard at school.

D. Danish educational system is for very smart students.

( )4. The writer wants to tell us that .

A. learning happily is the key to self-development

B. top marks may be helpful to increase one’s interest

C. tests should be improved to give children inspiration

D. education should meet one's needs for word and money

- Passage 3 -

Paul and Jason were brothers who lived and worked on neighboring farms. For 35 years they farmed side by side, sharing machinery and goods as needed, without a single problem.

However, one autumn, things changed. It began with a tiny disagreement about a horse, which grew into a major difference. The difference led to angry words, followed by weeks of silence between the two brothers.

One morning there was a knock on Paul’s door. He opened it and saw a builder holding his toolbox. “I’m looking for a few days’ work,” the builder said. “Are there any jobs here I could help with?”

“Yes,” answered Paul, extremely pleased to see the builder. “I do have a job for you. Look at that farm across the creek (小溪). That’s my brother’s farm. That creek used to be a grass field, but last week my brother dug a path from the fiver and made the creek. But I’ll go him one better. See that pile of wood? I want you to build me a fence, two meters tall, so I won’t need to see him anymore.”

The builder said thoughtfully. “I think I understand the situation and I’ll be able to do a job

that pleases you.”

Paul had business in town that day and left the builder to his work. When he returned, the builder had just finished his job. Paul was shocked. Instead of a fence there was a bridge, stretching from one side of the creek to the other.

As Paul stood on the bridge, staring in amazement, his younger brother Jason, came across, and took Paul’s hand. “You are a good man to have built this bridge after all I’ve done.” said

Jason.

Then, Paul, with tears in his eyes, said to the builder who was packing his bag to go, “Thank you so much. Please stay. I have much more for you to do.”

- Passage 4 -

Last year in the UK at least 45 people died and 900 more were injured in car accidents where drivers were using their mobile phones. Yet many people continue to use them while driving even though it’s dangerous.

Research has shown that it is difficult to concentrate on driving and talking at the same time. It can even be more dangerous than driving after drinking too much. A recent study found that when drivers were talking on their mobile phones, their stopping times were 30 percent slower than when they had drunk too much―and nearly 50 percent slower than when they were driving normally. It also found that drivers talking on mobile phones were less able to control their cars than drunk drivers.

And talking isn’t even the most serious problem, texting is. Unbelievably, another recent study reported that 22% of adults admitted they had sent a text message while driving at least once in the past month. An average text message takes 90 seconds to write and send. That means for one and a half minutes a driver is looking at their phone’s screen and not at the road. The arrival of new smart phones such as the iPhone will only make matters worse as they will allow users to do more things than ever before.

Using a mobile phone while driving puts others’ lives at risk. No matter how well we drive, if another driver is not being professional or careful, we are put in danger by their actions. Such drivers are selfish, careless and should have their driving licenses (驾照) canceled.

There is no doubt that mobile phones call be fun and are extremely useful, especially when you’re in trouble. But there is no need to use them while driving. Just wait until you stop or you will probably get into trouble of your own.

( )1. The underlined word “them” in paragraph 1 refers to .

A. phone users B. mobile phones C. drivers D. ears

( )2. According to the passage, if a driver needs 10 seconds to stop when driving normally, they will need seconds to stop when talking on a mobile phone.

A. 12 B. 13 C. 14 D. 15

( )3. According to the passage, in what order do the following activities influence driving?

DangerousMore dangerousMost dangerous

A. drinkingtalking on phonetexting B. textingtalking on phonedrinking

C. talking on phonetextingdrinking D. drinkingtextingtalking on phone

( )4. Why will new types of mobile phones make the driving problem worse?

A. It will take longer to send text messages.

B. People will want to talk on their phones more often.

C. There will be more things for people to do with their phones.

D. People think the new phones are easier and safer to use.

( )5. According to the writer, what should be done to people who use mobile phones when

driving?

A. They should be put into prison. B. Their cars should be taken away.

C. Their phones should be taken from them.

D. They should not be allowed to drive any longer.

- Passage 1 -

Long ago, people lived on wild animals, fruits and other plants and they didn’t need to use money.

As time passed, families had more products (产品) than they needed, such as animals and crops. So they needed to trade (交易) with others. They began to use money to make it easier. However, it was not like the money we use today. They used shells, rice, salt or large stones.

During the 600s BC, people began using coins as money. Because they were easier to carry than goods (货物), countries began to make coins as their money.

The Chinese were the first to use paper money, probably in the 11th century. An Italian traveler, Marco Polo, saw the Chinese use paper money when he visited China in the 1200s. After his travel, he told the western people what he saw. But European countries didn’t start using paper money till the 1600s.

Today we have many ways to pay for things, such as coins, paper money and cards. Some prefer to pay by card. That’s because paying with a card is easier and safer than carrying around a lot of “real” money.

( )1. People began to use money because they .

A. lived on plants B. raised animals C. needed to trade

( )2. People used as money during the 600s BC.

A. shells B. coins C. cards

- Passage 2 -

Are you bored with your daily life? Here are some things you should try before you are 18, because after that it’s too late.

Learn to swim

Seriously, this is so important that it can save your life. If you can’t swim well, you won’t be able to do water sports like waterskiing, surfing and diving. Even taking a boat trip will be dangerous for you. Make sure you do it.

Try at least one kind of team sports

Being a good team player is an important skill in life. You can’t just think of yourself, but have to work well with other people. Other advantages of team sports like basketball, football and baseball are that they keep you fit and healthy, and they are also great fun. Teams usually have a good social life too―you’ll go to lots of parties and make many friends.

Collect something

One of the best hobbies for under-18s is collecting things. You could collect kinds of stamps, or you could collect things that make you remember what you have done, like cinema tickets for films you have seen or emails from friends. The best way to collect is to have a special album to put your collection in and to write what each thing means to you. That way you won’t forget.

- Passage 3 -

Hip hop or rap (说唱) music as it is also called, started on the street and in the clubs of the New York City in the 1970s. But today many countries have their own kind of hip hop music. This kind of music comes from reggae, disco and funk music. Rapping means speaking to the rhythm of the music, and it is an important part of the music. People rap to express how they feel about their lives and problems.

Rapping in class.

Would you like to rap in class? Well actually, hip pop music is played in more than 10,000 schools in the USA. Why? There is a new school program called “Flocabulary” in which teachers use texts and hip hop CDs to help teach different school subjects. The words of the songs are just what students are studying. This makes learning easy and fun. Students and teachers are excited about the positive results it has had on exam marks. One teacher said, “I’ve used hip hop songs in class, and I have never seen my students so crazy about history! You can’t imagine how well they imagine how well they remember what I teach! We even try to write our own songs.”

Whose idea was Flocabulary?

Blake Harrison, a high school student, was the first person to come up with the idea of Flocabulary. The word “Flocabulary” comes from the word “flow” and “vocabulary”. “Flow” is a rap word for “style”, or the way a rapper says the words of a song. “Vocabulary” means the words you have to learn in a language. How did he get the idea? Well, he realized he could remember the words of a hip hop song very easily. So, why not make lessons into songs? Today together with Alex Rappaport, a song writer, Blake produces hip hop songs for maths, science and literature (文学). They are now used in schools with great success.

- Passage 4 -

Each country has many kind people who volunteer to take care of others. For example, some high school and university students in the US often spend many hours as volunteers in hospital or old people’s homes. They read books for the people or they just visit them and play games with them or listen to their problems.
