解析:

(1)

根据上文all signs pointed to success和yet可知情况发生了变化,不是朝向成功的方向,而是令人失望,故选C。

(2)

因为情况是令人失望的,可知Joe的成绩在班里是排在最后,故选择bottom, at the bottom of意为:在…的底部。

(3)

本句Joe struggled day and night说明他很努力,后面的but提示虽然努力了,但是没有见效,故选B。

(4)

本句中表达的是数学老师解释概念的时候发生的事情,故用as引导时间状语从句。

(5)

根据the thunder won the battle for their attention可知雷声吸引了学生的注意力,也就是学生们不能集中注意力,故选A。

(6)

上句说到学生不能把注意力集中在老师讲的内容上,所以没有人能够掌握那些概念,故选B。

(7)

根据生活常识和上下文判断。上句提到只有Joe能正确回答这些问题,所以老师拍拍他的背,让他向同学解释他是怎样做到的,本句中说的是Joe受到鼓励,在教室来回穿梭,故选C。

(8)

下句中all children drew pictures可知数学课之后是美术课,故选C。

(9)

下一段话中the picture of a bright yellow sun及except for Joe可知别的孩子画的都是暗淡颜色的画,只有Joe的画是明亮的,故选B。

(10)

本文讲诉Joe的转变过程,前面提到的是Joe的成绩是disappointing,而这里在讲他的开始转变,开始提高,故选A。

(11)

本题的关键是空格后的连词and和curious,根据and可知要填的词和后文的curious同一概念的词,故选amazed,又吃惊又好奇,故选B。

(12)

这幅画充满金色的阳光,对于Joe来讲是十分珍贵的,因此它改变了Joe的学习轨迹,故选D。

(13)

上文讲到这幅画是Joe的珍藏,那么可知在图画上他所写的字是:这是我见到光明的日子。故选A。

请同学们阅读下面两篇“未解之谜”,完成阅读任务,并谈一谈自己的观点

Is there a monster in the water?

  Does an ancient monster live in Scotland’s Loch Ness(尼斯湖)?For centuries, many people have argued that “Nessie”, the Loch Ness Monster, does exist.On July 22, 1933, Mr.and Mrs.George Spicer were driving alongside the lake.All of a sudden, their car nearly struck a huge, black, long-necked creature, which then entered the lake.This was the first time Nessie was brought to public attention.

  To date there have been over 3000 recorded sightings of the monster but no one has come up with any solid evidence that it does exist.

  Scientists are still using high-tech equipment to search the lake and thousands of people visit the area each year in the hope of seeing the monster.And some believe they have got lucky:there are new sightings of Nessie every year.

  Stonehenge, the most famous prehistoric monument in Britain, is situated on Salisbury Plain in the county of Wiltshire.At various times regarded as a site built by the Druids, the Romans, the Danes and even the French, the first stage-a circular ditch and bank with an entrance flanked by a pair of small standing stones-is believed to have been built around 3000 BC.The site was subsequently(随后)abandoned and rebuilt between 2100 BC and 1800 BC.

  There are many mysteries surrounding this ancient site.Some of the stones used are thought to have come from the Preseli mountains in Pembrokeshire, Wales-yet exactly how they were transported to the site in such a primitive(原始的)age is a puzzle.Experts believe they may have been transported for most of the way by water, before being dragged overland for the last stage of the journey.

  It has been suggested that Stonehenge once operated as a massive astronomical clock, and there are even suggestions that it was a landing site for UFOs(Unidentified Flying Objects)! A more likely explanation is that Stonehenge was an important centre of worship connected with the sun.
