When it comes to friends, I desire those who will share my happiness, who possess wings of their own and who will fly with me. I seek friends whose qualities illuminate(照亮)me and train me up for love. It is for these people that I reserve the glowing hours, too good not to share.
When I was in the eighth grade, I had a friend. We were shy and “too serious” about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors. We said little at school, but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper, and one of us would say:“Let’s start with a train whistle today.” We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. Then we would read them aloud. At the end of that school year, we, too, were changing into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped.
When I lived for a time in London, I had a friend, He was in despair(失望)and I was in despair. But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because we had felt bad at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things. We walked until our despairs disappeared and then we parted. We gave London to each other.
For almost four years I have had remarkable friend whose imagination illuminates mine. We write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves. Each of us appears, sometimes in a funny way, in the other’s dreams. She and I agree that, at certain times, we seem to be parts of the same mind. In my most interesting moments, I often think: “Yes, I must tell….”We have never met.
It is such comforting companions I wish to keep. One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist(心理学家),who will only fill up the healing(愈合的)silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend.
小题1:In the eighth grade, what the author did before developing proper social behavior was to ______.
A.become serious about her study
B.go to her friend’s house regularly
C.learn from her classmates at school
D.share poems and stories with her friend
小题2:In Paragraph 3, “We gave London to each other” probably means ______.
A.our exploration of London was a memorable gift to both of us

C.our unpleasant feeling about London disappeared
D.we parted with each other in London
小题3:According to Paragraph 4, the author and her friend _______.
A.call each other regularly
B.have similar personalities
C.enjoy writing to each other
D.dream of meeting each other

A.seek professional helpB.be left alone
C.stay with her best friend
D.break the silence

What is Math Anxiety?
Math anxiety or fear of math is actually quite common. Math anxiety is quite    1  to stage-fright. Why does someone suffer   2  ? Fear of something going wrong in front of a crowd? Fear of   3  the lines? Fear of being judged   4  ? Fear of going completely blank? Math anxiety conjures(使现出) up fear of some type. The fear that one won't be able to do the   5  or the fear that it's too hard or the fear of failure which often stems(起因于) from having a lack of   6  . For the most part, math anxiety is the   7  about doing the math right, our minds draw a   8  and we think we'll fail and of course the more frustrated and anxious our minds become, the   9  the chance for drawing blanks. Added pressure of having time limits on math tests and exams also cause the levels of anxiety grow for many students.
Where Does Math Anxiety Come From?
Usually math anxiety stems from    10 experiences in mathematics. Typically math phobias have had math presented in such a fashion that it led to limited understanding. Unfortunately, math anxiety is often  11   poor teaching and poor experiences in math which typically leads to math   12  . Many of the students I've encountered with math anxiety have demonstrated an over reliance on procedures in math as opposed to actually understanding the math. When one tries to memorize procedures, rules and routines without much   13  , the math is quickly forgotten and   14  soon sets in. Think about your experiences with one concept --- the division of fractions(小部分). You probably learned about reciprocals(倒数) and inverses. In other words, 'It's not yours to reason why, just invert(反转) and multiply'(乘). Well, you memorized the rule and it   15   . Why does it work? Do you really understand why it works? Did anyone every use pizzas or math manipulative(巧妙处理的) to show you why it works? If   16   , you simply memorized the procedure and that was that. Think of math as memorizing all the procedures --   17  if you forget a few? Therefore, with this type of strategy, a good   18  will help, but, what if you don’t have a good memory. Understanding the math is critical. Once students   19  they can do the math, the whole notion of math anxiety can be overcome. Teachers and parents have an important   20  to ensure students understand the math being presented to them.

A man who served 11 years in prison after being wrongly convicted of murdering his wife was officially cleared yesterday, walking free from Jingshan County People's Court—the same body that sentenced him to a 15?year jail term in 1998—as over 2000 local residents cheered.
“Police and other law enforcers made the errors,”39?year?old She Xianglin told China Daily, “I believe the law will punish them and give me a just result.”?
The original conviction came based on a confession which She said was extracted under police torture and the misidentification of a still-unknown woman's body.?
“The provincial Hubei government has sent a team of police, procurators and high people's court officials to investigate the case,” a spokesperson for the Jingmen government, which administrates Jingshan County, said yesterday.?
The miscarriage of justice only came to light when Shen's wife, Zhang Zaiyu, resurfaced late last month after being thought missing for 11 years.?
This was despite at least five letters from Zhang to her brother over the last two years, which he said he didn't report to police because he thought they were a hoax.?
Zhang disappeared in January 1994 from Yanmenkou Township, and 3 months later a body was found in a pond that her relatives positively identified.?
Local police arrested Shen for murder in April 1994,although questions had been raised about discrepancies between the features and clothes of the body and Zhang. Confirmation through DNA testing had not been attempted.?
  Zhang Chengmao, Shen's lawyer, said yesterday he would seek State compensation “but we have not reached a figure yet”.?
When asked about compensation, Shen said, “My mother, who died from the stress of continually appealing, cannot be bought. Eleven years of freedom cannot be bought. Schooling of my daughter that was stopped because of poverty cannot be bought.”?
As for his wife, the man said he did not hate her at all. “If she had not reappeared, maybe I would have been wronged for life,” he said.?
He also said he did not plan to sue Zhang for bigamy, though she had remarried in Shandong Province without divorcing him.?
小题1:Why did She Xianglin served 11 years in prison?
A.Because She Xianglin was convicted of murdering his wife.?
B.Because the Police and other law enforcers made the errors.?
C.Because through DNA testing the dead woman was his wife.?
D.Because her wife was missing.
小题2:Which of the following is NOT true??
A.The miscarriage of justice only came to light when Shen's wife reappeared.?
B.The man said he did not hate her at all.?
C.Zhang Zaiyu wrote at least five letters to her brother over the last two years to hoax him.?
D.She Xianglin's mother died from the stress of continually appealing.
小题3:We can infer from the passage _______.?
A.She Xianglin will get State compensation?
B.She Xianglin's daughter dropped out of school because of poverty?
C.She Xianglin stayed in prison for 11 years?
D.who murdered the woman is known to all
小题4:The underlined word “cleared” in the first paragraph means _______.?
A.清除B.宣告无罪C.(天气)变晴D.移走物体

When we arrived at the accident scene, it was obvious that the baby bird was dead. Spencer and I could see the nest high up in the tree. My son and I discussed the probable age of the baby bird, its inability to fly well, and exactly how the    5    had caused its death. “ I think his mommy and daddy really    6    him,” Spencer observed.

Trying to   14   Spencer’s spirits and remind him that the little bird was really OK, I asked our son to tell Daddy where the baby bird was. Spencer,    15  solemn (郑重的) faced at his dad, said, “In the rubbish bin with Mama’s granddad, Popo.”
