A

    I remember clearly the last time I cried. I was twelve years old, in the seventh grade, and I had tried out for the junior high school basketball team. I walked into the gym. There was a piece of paper on the wall.

It was a cut list. The boys whose names were on the list were welcome to keep on practicing. The boys whose names were not on the list had been cut. Their presence was no longer desired.

I had not known the cut was coming that day. I stood and stared at the list. The list had not been made with a great deal of consideration. The names of the best players were at the top, and the other members of the team were listed in what appeared to be a descending (下降的) order of basketball skills. I kept looking at the bottom of the list, hoping that my name would appear if I looked hard enough.

I held myself together as I walked out, bat when I got home I began to cry. For the first time in my life, I had been told officially that I wasn't good enough. Sports meant everything to boys of that age. If you were on the team, it put you in the desirable group. If you were not, you might as well not be alive.

All these years later, I remember it as if 1 were still standing right there in the gym. I don't know how the mind works in matters like this. I don't know what went on in my head following that day of cut. But I know that my determination has been so strong ever since then. I have known that for all my life since that day. I have done more work than I had to be doing and pat in more hours than I had to be spending, I don't know if all of that came from a determination never to allow myself to be cut again—never to allow someone to tell me that I'm not good enough again—but I know it is there. And clearly it's there in a lot of other successful men too.

1.From the text we learn that the cut list had names of pupils __________.

A.who were cut out B.who were still on the team

C.who were the old players D.who were not good enough

2.Why did the author react so strongly to the cut?

A.It hurt his pride deeply. B.It was open to the public.

C.It listed his name at the bottom. D.It forced him to change the team.

3.We can infer from the text that the author __________.

A.has made friends with many other men

B.has never learned the truth of the cut

C.has become quite successful in life

D.has learned to play basketball very well

B

I have a neighbour we call Happy. I have never seen her angry at anything and never heard her say a harsh(难听的) word to anyone or about anyone.

Happy and her husband Ben, 70, have a huge garden. They spent many happy hours together working on it. Most of the neighbours watched interestingly as Ben doubled the size of their garden. As the cost of food climbed faster than Ben's beans, we all wished we also had such a large garden. As the rest of us spent our dollars at the market, Happy could be seen picking beans in her backyard.

Last month, Happy and Ben invited most of the neighbourhood over for an “all­day food fest”. We were told to bring gloves and arrive very early in the morning. We didn't know what was about to take place.

By 9：00 am, there were nine of us in the garden picking tomatoes, beans, okra  and  squash. By 10：00 am, there was lots of laughter. We shared a lot of stories. By 5：00 pm, everyone was a little drunk from the wine and beer. After dinner, we played games. As we were leaving, Happy and Ben handed each of us a shopping bag filled with the bounty(大量给予之物) of the day, already packaged and frozen. What a delightful gift!

Well, the point wasn't so much about the food. The true gift was a day of friends enjoying one another's company. None of it would have happened if it had not been for Happy and Ben's garden. Now they have a blog about gardening in case we decide to plant a garden. And I am so proud of my tomato plants!

4. We can infer that Happy and her husband Ben________．

A. are a generous and warm­hearted couple

B. sometimes quarrel with each other

C. live on the food they grow in their garden

D. don't like spending time with others

5.According to Paragraph 2, people wished they also had a garden so that ________．

A. they didn't have to spend so much money on food

B. they could grow vegetables and sell them at the market

C. they could invite their neighbours and hold parties in it

D. they could spend happy hours together with their families in it

6. For what purpose did Happy and Ben invite the neighbours to their garden?

A. To ask them to attend a birthday party.

B. To help them get to know each other.

C. To ask them to share some interesting stories.

D. To let them enjoy what they grew in the garden.

7.What did the writer most probably think of the time he spent in the garden?

A. It was too long.

B. It was wonderful.

C. It was not as good as he thought.

D. It was too terrible.

C

 Sleep is a basic human need, as basic as the need for oxygen. Getting a good night’s sleep is not only directly related to how we feel the next day, but to our long-term health as well. However, many of us suffer from insomnia (失眠). Even more of us report at least one night of restless sleep per week. This is a serious problem.

Well, how can we make sure that we rest well and stay healthy? Here are some suggestions.

If you can’t sleep in the middle of the night, don’t get up. The bright light will affect your body clock and worsen your insomnia. Stay in bed!

Avoid short sleep during the day, except for a brief ten to fifteen-minute sleep between 2:00 and 4:00 P.M.

Limit your time in bed to the average number of hours you’ve actually slept per night last week. Don’t try to make up for lost sleep. It can’t be done.

Get regular exercise each day, but finish at least six hours before bedtime. Exercising in the evening can help keep you awake.

Take a hot bath for thirty minutes within two hours of bedtime. The bath will warm you, relax you, and make you feel sleepy.

Keep our bedroom dark, quiet, and well ventilated (通风).

Keep a regular schedule seven days a week. Avoid sleeping late on weekends. Although it may feel good while you’re doing it, sleeping late on weekend can lead to insomnia during the week.

Don’t drink alcohol (酒精). Although, having a drink before bed makes you sleep, alcohol loses its effects after a while. The secondary effects of alcohol can wake you up during the second half of your night’s sleep.

Keep the face of the clock in your bedroom turned away, and don’t find out what time it is when you awaken in the night.

8.The first paragraph serves as a(n) __________.

A. argument       B. introduction

C.  comment       D. explanation

9. Which of the following is NOT advised for a good night’s sleep?

A. Staying in bed after failing to sleep.

B. Don’t exercise six hours before sleeping

C. Don’t drink alcohol before sleeping.

D. Preventing the wind from blowing into your room.

10. To sleep well, you need to __________.

A. get up late on weekends

B. sleep during the day sometimes

C. avoid looking at your clock

D. have a bath in the morning

11.The text mainly about__________ .

A. some keys to a better night’s sleep

B. some advantages of having a good sleep

C. some effects of bad night’s sleep

D. some reasons for insomnia

D

 Teenagers who talk on the cell phone a lot, and hold their phones up to their right ears, score worse on one type of memory test. That’s the finding of a new study. That memory impairment might be one side effect of the radiation (放射线) that phones use to keep us connected while we’re on the go.

Nearly 700 Swiss teens took part in a test of figural memory. This type helps us remember abstract (抽象的) symbols and shapes, explains Milena Foerster. The teens took memory tests twice, one year apart. Each time, they had one minute to remember 13 pairs of abstract shapes. Then they were shown one item from each pair and asked to match it with one of the five choices. The study volunteers also took a test of verbal memory. That’s the ability to remember words. The two memory tests are part of an intelligence test. The researchers also surveyed the teens on how they use cell phones. And they got call records from phone companies. The researchers used those records to figure out how long the teens were using their phones. This allowed the researchers to work out how big a radiation exposure (接触) each person could have got while talking.

A phone user’s exposure to the radiation can differ widely. Some teens talk on their phones more than others. People also hold their phones differently. If the phone is close to the ear, more radiation may enter the body, Foerster notes. Even the type of network signal that a phone uses can matter. Much of Switzerland was using an older “second-generation” type of cell phone networks, the study reports. Many phone carriers (通讯公司) have moved away from such networks. And more companies plan to update their networks within the next few years.

The teens’ scores in the figural memory tests were roughly the same from one year to the next. But those who normally held their phones near the right ears, and who were also exposed to higher levels of radiation, scored a little bit worse after a year. No group of teens showed big changes on the verbal memory test. Why might one type of memory be linked to cell phone use, but not another? Foerster thinks it could have to do with where different memory centers sit in the brain. The site that deals with the ability to remember shapes is near the right ear.

12.According to Paragraph 2, which of the following is TRUE?

A.The teens took two types of memory tests four times in total.

B.The teens needed to report the average time spent on their phones.

C.Researchers paid little attention to the teens’ habits of using phones.

D.The teens’ ability of remembering words is shown in figural memory test.

13.What can we infer from Paragraph 3?

A.How people hold their phones has no effect on their bodies.

B.Phone users can make more money with new networks.

C.The cell phone network type has little to do the cell phone use.

D.Radiation levels are affected by the cell phone network types.

14.According to the study, teens who use their phones to their right ears a lot do worse in ________.

A.matching numbers B.reading signals

C.remembering shapes D.learning words

15.What might be the best title for the text?

A.Cell phone use and safety warnings

B.Facts about cell phone use at school

C.Dangerous levels of cell phone use among teens

D.Teen’s cell phone use linked to memory problems

第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

    根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。

    Everybody gets angry, but out-of-control anger isn't good for you or those around you. So here are five simple strategies to help you learn how to manage your anger:

• Relax. Breathe deeply, from your stomach. 16. Repeat it to yourself and visualize a relaxing time and experience.

• Change the way you think. When you're angry, your thinking can get exaggerated (夸大的). 17. For instance, instead of telling yourself, “Oh, it's terrible! Everything's ruined,” tell yourself, “It's understandable that I'm upset about it, but it's not the end of the world.”

• 18. Statements like “This never works.” or “You're always forgetting things.” will make you feel your anger is justified (情有可原的) and there's no way to solve the problem. They might upset people who might be willing to work with you on a solution.

• Have a better communication. Angry people tend to jump to conclusions. If you are in a heated discussion, slow down. 19. And take your time before answering. Instead of saying the first thing that comes into your head, think carefully about what you want to say.

• Use humor. Psychologists say that highly angry people tend to think “things ought to go my way!” “Silly humor” can help you get a more balanced perspective. So, when you feel that anger coming the next time, picture yourself as a king or queen, walking around, admired by everybody, and getting your own way in every situation. The more detail you can get into your imaginary scenes, the more likely it is to put a smile on your face. 20.

A. Be careful with words like “never” or “always”.

B. Listen carefully to what the other person is saying.

C. Try replacing these thoughts with more reasonable ones.

D. Avoid using these strategies when you're in a tense situation.

E. Then slowly repeat a calm word or phrase such as “take it easy”.

F. Try changing the topics so your talks won't turn into arguments.

G. That will help you realize that the things you're angry about are really not very important.

The Sports Activities I Like Best

There are various kinds of sports activities, including ball games like basketball, football, tennis, as well as other activities, such as swimming and hiking. Among them, I like swimming best.

First of all, swimming keeps me healthy. There is no doubt that people who swim a lot have stronger bodies than those who don’t. Swimming both contributes to a powerful lung and reduces the risk of heart attacks. Thanks to swimming, I have seldom been sick in the past few years.

Besides, swimming can keep me fit. Having a slim figure is the dream of all girls. Swimming is an effective way to help us lose unnecessary weight. Take me for example, last summer, I kept swimming for 3 days a week; after two months, I have lost 5-kilogram weight!

All in all, swimming not only keeps me healthy, but also provides me with a slim figure. Therefore, of all the sports activities, I like swimming best.
