    The kiwi bird
    The kiwi bird is a flightless bird，about the size of a chicken. It sleeps during the day and is active at night­time. It has a long beak that is one­third the length of its body, and its beak actually has nostrils (鼻孔) at the end. The kiwi is the only bird with this feature. Another unique feature of the kiwi is  that it has no tail. It has thick brown hair­like feathers. This bird  has many physical features unlike any other bird on earth.
    Kiwi birds have been called a genetic leftover. Their characteristics seem very odd to us probably due to the fact that they haven't evolved much at all. They are suspected to be about 8 million years old. That's 7 million years older than humans. Due to New Zealand's isolated environment, it has been safe from predators(食肉动物) and hasn't needed to do much adapting. They just hang around.
    With its long beak, the kiwi digs up and chows down on  worms. A kiwi is almost blind; it can see about six feet at night and around two feet during the day，so when it comes to hunting the kiwi is not well equipped.It uses the nostrils on its  beak to find its food and then picks up the worms with its beak.
    The kiwi bird is native of New Zealand.It is the island country's national bird, and is rare anywhere but here and a few Pacific island neighbors. Of course，it is available for viewing at certain zoos.It has stayed in its native land due to the facts that it is an isolated island and that kiwis can't fly.
    Kiwi birds are extremely unique in the bird world. Though they are the size of chickens, they lay eggs the size of ostrich eggs, weighing around a pound each.Their enormous eggs are the largest in the bird world, compared to their bodies. These birds were named after their distinctive shrill cry “kee­wee kee­wee”．
    小题1:Which of the following is NOT the distinctive feature of the kiwi bird?

    A．the climate is mild
    B．they have no enemy
    C．something is wrong with their genes
    D．they have adapted to living on the island
    小题3:What plays a key role in looking for food?
    A．Its long beak.B．Its eyes.
    C．The nostrils.　D．Its tail
    小题4:What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?

    Three Central Texas men were honored with the Texas Department of Public Safety's Director's Award in a Tuesday morning ceremony for their heroism in saving the victims of a serious two­car accident.
    The accident occurred on March 25 when a vehicle lost control while traveling on rain­soaked State Highway 6 near Baylor Camp Road. It ran into an oncoming vehicle, leaving the occupants trapped inside as both vehicles burst into flames.
    Bonge was the first on the scene and heard children screaming. He broke through a back window and pulled Mallory Smith, 10, and her sister, Megan Smith, 9, from the wreckage.
    The girl's mother, Beckie Smith, was not with them at the time of the wreck, as they were traveling with their body sitter, Lisa Bowbin.
    Beckie Smith still remembers the sickening feeling she had upon receiving the call informing her of the wreck and the despair as she drove to the scene.
    Bozeman and Clemmons arrived shortly after Bonge and helped rescue the other victims and attempted to put out the fires.
    “I was nervous，”Bozeman said. “I don't feel like I'm a hero. I was just doing what anyone should do in that situation. I hope someone would do the same for me.”
    Everyone at the accident made it out alive, with the victims suffering from nonlife­threatening injuries. Mallory Smith broke both femurs, and Megan had neck and back injuries. Bowbin is still recovering from a broken pelvis, ankle and foot.
    The rescuers also were taken to the hospital and treated for cuts and smoke breathing, Bonge said.
    In addition, Bozeman got to meet accident victim Anthony Russo in the hospital after the accident, where Russo presented him with a glass frame inscribed with “Thank you”， Bozeman said. Those involved in that fateful encounter on Highway 6 credited God blessing for bringing them together.
    “Whatever the circumstances, Tuesday's ceremony provided a time to be grateful for those who put their lives on the line for the lives of complete strangers，”Beckie Smith said，“We're calling it The Miracle on Highway 6.”
    小题1:What's the main idea of the passage?
    A．Three persons were awarded for rescuing victims in a car accident.
    B．Three ordinary people were regarded as great heroes.
    C．Several victims were carried to safety from the burning cars.
    D．A car accident occurred on rain­soaked State Highway 6.
    小题2:Who saved Megan Smith from the damaged car?

    A．Luckily, no one received too serious injuries in the accident.
    B．All the victims received slight injuries in the accident.
    C．The rescuers were taken to the hospital to visit the victims.
    D．The injured will soon recover from their injuries.

    At East China University of Science and Technology, students will get a coupon(优惠券)if they eat up their food. Students can collect coupons and exchange them for small gifts, such as books, magazines, mobile phone covers and hand warmers.
    “It's been such a surprise,” said Liang Zhaoyun, 19, a student at the university in Shanghai. “It has given us one more motivation to finish our food.”
    The measure is part of a national "eat-up" campaign(行动)which is organized by students to deal with food waste on campuses(校园).
    Why only on campuses, you might ask? Because according to a report by Xinhua News Agency, students waste twice as much food as the national average(平均).
    The campaign on campus food waste is receiving attention across the country. “The aim of the campaign is not only to encourage students to finish their food. We hope it can also encourage students to choose a more environment-friendly and healthy lifestyle,” said Tao Siliang, secretary of the Youth League Committee at Shanghai University.
    But some school food is poorly prepared, so students do not like to finish it all. Some schools have taken notice of this and they are taking measures to improve it.
    "I'm glad that we've reduced food waste since ‘eat-up’ campaign began. But if we call on students to waste less food, we should also improve the service and food standard on campuses.” said Tao.
    小题1:From Paragraph 1, we know that the student will get a coupon____________.
    A．when they eat school foodB．after they exchange gifts
    C．if they collect the wasteD．if they finish all their food

    The US will seek to expand its own oil production in an attempt to reduce dependence on imported oil and bring down fuel prices , President Obama says . New contracts for exploration will be signed in non-protected areas of Alaska and in the Gulf of Mexico.
    In his weekly speech , the President insisted the US could reduce its need for imported oil and improve safety. Using his speech to tell Americans that he understood their concerns about rising prices, President Obama focused particularly on the price of fuel, which has risen in recent months.
    US consumers have historically enjoyed cheap fuel , but have seen prices rise in recent months even though US oil production in 2010 reached its highest level for seven years.
    Although the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010 was serious, Mr Obama said the Gulf remained a key part of the country’s future energy supply.
    The President’s proposals (议案）come after Republicans (共和党人） introduced a series of proposals that would expand and speed up oil and gas production.
    The White House has criticized the Republican proposals for safety reasons , but Mr Obama was clear in his speech that he felt safety and environmental standards could be maintained even though production might rise.
    “ I believe that we should continue to expand oil production in America —even as we increase safety and environmental standards ,”he said.
    “As a nation, we should be investing in the clean, renewable sources of energy that are the solution to high gas prices.”
    Mr Obama has previously called for a step-change in energy policy, saying the US must move towards getting 80%of its electricity from clean energy sources by 2035.
    小题1:Which of the following is NOT included in Mr Obama’s speech?
    A．The dependence on imported oil.
    B．Improving safety standards
    C．The reason for the rising oil prices .
    D．Expanding oil production.
    小题2:Mr Obama thinks the Republican proposals are ______.
    A．Not safe enoughB．Not environmentally friendly
    C．PracticalD．Clear
    小题3:What can we learn from the text ?
    A．The US has got most of its electricity from clean energy.
    B．US oil production is too small to keep the present low fuel prices.
    C．The US produced the most oil in 2010 in its history.
    D．The Gulf is still important in energy supply in spite of the oil spill in 2010.
    小题4: Which of the following can serve as the title?
    A．Obama: US will seek oil in Alaska and Gulf of Mexico.
    B．Obama: US will import less oil to improve safety and environmental standards .
    C．Obama: the time of high fuel prices will be gone.
    D．Obama: clean, renewable sources of energy are the solution to high gas prices

    It is found that American students spend less than 15% of their time in school. While there’s no doubt that school is important, a number of recent studies reminds us that parents are even more so. A study published earlier this month by researchers at North Carolina State University, for example, finds that parental involvement — checking homework, attending school meetings and events, discussing school activities at home — has a more powerful influence on students’ academic performance than anything about the school the students attend. Another study, published in the Review of Economics and Statistics, reports that the effort put forth by parents (reading stories aloud, meeting with teachers) has a bigger impact on their children’s educational achievement than the effort devoted by either teachers or the students themselves. And a third study concludes that schools would have to increase their spending by more than $1,000 per pupil in order to achieve the same results that are gained with parental involvement.
    So parents matter. But it is also revealed in researches that parents, of all backgrounds, don’t need to buy expensive educational toys or digital devices for their kids in order to give them an advantage. They don’t need to drive their offspring (子孙，后代)to enrichment classes or test-preparation courses. What they need to do with their children is much simpler: talk.
    But not just any talk. Recent research has indicated exactly what kinds of talk at home encourage children’s success at school. For example, a study conducted by researchers at the UCLA School of Public Health and published in the journal Pediatrics found that two-way adult-child conversations were six times as potent in promoting language development as the ones in which the adult did all the talking. Engaging in this reciprocal（双向的) back-and-forth gives children a chance to try out language for themselves, and also gives them the sense that their thoughts and opinions matter.
    The content of parents’ conversations with kids matters, too. Children who hear talk about counting and numbers at home start school with much more extensive mathematical knowledge, report researchers from the University of Chicago. While the conversations parents have with their children change as kids grow older, the effect of these exchanges on academic achievement remains strong. Research finds that parents play an important role in what is called “academic socialization” — setting expectations and making connections between current behavior and future goals. Engaging in these sorts of conversations has a greater impact on educational accomplishment.
    小题1:Parents are even more important than schools because ______.
    A．parental involvement makes up for what schools are not able to do
    B．teachers and students themselves do not put in enough effort
    C．parental involvement saves money for schools and the local government
    D．students may well make greater achievements with parents' attention
    小题2:It can be inferred from the 2nd paragraph that ______.
    A．educational toys are unaffordable nowadays
    B．digital devices can give children an advantage
    C．some parents believe in enrichment classes
    D．talking with children is a very simple task
    小题3:The word "potent" is closest in meaning to ______.
    A．powerfulB．difficultC．necessaryD．resistant
    小题4:Which of the following will more encourage children's success at school according to the passage?
    A．Parents order their children to stop playing video games.
    B．Parents discuss with their children the possible future career.
    C．Parents lecture their children on getting too low marks on tests.
    D．Parents introduce colleges around the US to their children.

    My first visit to Angkor Wat(吴哥窟) was in 1980. The country had been at war for many years and the temple was deserted and falling to pieces. Plants were growing out of the roofs, and trees were growing in the courtyards.
    Today, the temple is the scene of a busy repair program. A team of 15 Indian experts are organizing a workforce of 400 Cambodians, most of them women, who are cleaning, repairing and rebuilding parts of this temple.
    　　As I walked through the courtyards, I noticed the Cambodian women devote hours to cleaning carefully a tiny area of stone. Boards are laid down to protect the precious painted stones while the repair work is going on. There are very few machines and little heavy equipment. Workers carry building materials in buckets at the end of long poles. Piles of stones lie in a corner of the courtyard, waiting to be replaced. 　　　
    　　The work of cleaning the stones is watched over by three Indian chemists. It is a very slow task. First they clean the stones with brushes using buckets of a weak chemical. Then gaps between the stones are filled in. Finally another material is painted onto the stones which will protect them from water forever.
    Work starts every day at 7 a. m. and goes on until late afternoon six days a week, with a break at midday.
    Evening is the best time to visit the temple, after the tour groups have left. As the sun sinks lower, shadows spread across the courtyard. After sunset, the sky turns pink. The grey stone towers take on a golden color before turning pink. Nowhere else in the world can there be such a quiet, beautiful place.
    小题1:This passage mainly tells ________.
    A．the poor look of the temple Angkor Wat in 1980
    B．the history of the temple Angkor Wat
    C．the repair work being done to the temple Angkor Wat
    D．the difficulty in the repair work
    小题2:According to the author, which of the following plays the LEAST important role in the repair work?
    A．The women workers.B．The Indian workers
    C．MachinesD．Skilled workers
    小题3:The underlined sentence “the temple was deserted” possibly means that _______.
    A．there was no one in the temple and it was in a poor state
    B．the temple was built on desert and nobody noticed it
    C．the temple was very old with a long history
    D．the temple was repaired by the Cambodians, most of whom women
    小题4:To clean the stone, how many steps should be followed?
    A．TwoB．ThreeC．FourD．Five
    小题5:Which work needs a lot of time to do?
    A．To get rid of certain types of plants.
    B．To carry the building materials.
    C．To replace the stones.
    D．To clean the stones.

    Wugging, or web-use giving, describes the act of giving to charity at no cost to the user. By using Everyclick.com, which is being added to a number of university computers across the UK, students can raise money every time they search, but it won’t cost them a penny.
    Research shows that students are extremely passionate about supporting charity — 88% of full time students have used the Internet to give to charity. This figure is high considering this age group is often the least likely to have their own income. 19% of 22 to 24 year olds have short-term debts of more than £5,000. With rising personal debt levels in this age group, due to university tuition fees or personal loans and a lack of long-term savings, traditional methods of donating to charity are often not appealing or possible.
    Beth Truman, a 21 year old recent university graduate, has used everyclick.com to donate to her chosen charity, the RSPCA, for two years and has seen the “wugging” grow in popularity with students. “When you’re at university you become more socially aware, but it’s sometimes hard to give to others when you have little money yourself,” says Beth. “Wugging is great for people in this age group as it allows them to use the technology on a daily basis to give to charity, without costing them a single penny.”
    Wugging is perfect for people who want to be more socially aware and supportive but don’t feel they have the means to do so. Students using the web can raise money for causes they care about without costing them anything in terms of time or money, and charities get a valuable source of funding.
    Everyclick.com works like any other search engine, allowing users to search for information, news and images but users can decide which of the UK’s 170,000 charities they would like to support through their clicks. Everyclick.com then makes monthly payments to every registered charity. Launched in June 2005, Everyclick.com is now the eighth largest search engine and one of the busiest charity websites in the UK.
