    School phobia is a type of illness which causes students to be afraid to go to school. This condition is most commonly seen in children, typically between the ages of 8-13, and it can be very upsetting, especially if it is allowed to progress. Symptoms include stomach aches, tiredness, shaking, a racing heart and frequent trips to the toilet.
    This common phobia is associated with a wide variety of causes. Most commonly it is the result of separation anxiety, but it can also be caused by different kinds of stress. A child who has recently moved, suffered a loss, or gone through a divorce may develop school phobia, and phobias can also develop in response to bullying (欺侮), an unrecognised learning disability, and poor self-image. Understanding the cause of a school phobia is an important step in providing treatment.
    A child with school phobia usually refuses to go to school, or protests violently. He or she may become physically ill when ordered to school, or pretend to be sick to avoid going. When the child arrives at school, he or she may run away, or develop behavioural problems in class and on the playground. When school is discussed, the child can become impatient, upset or angry.
    Many techniques can be used to manage school phobia, but research suggests that much more effective treatment is required for school phobia to prevent problems developing in later life. Children with this condition usually benefit from seeing a psychologist or doctor who can help the child and provide assistance to help parents and school officials support the child. As soon as a school phobia is identified, parents should take action too. Like other phobias, school phobia gets worse the longer it is left untreated, and it can interfere with a child's success in school. Adjustments can be made at home and in the classroom to help. If bullying is a cause, for example, the bullying situation should be solved. A teacher can meet the child at the door and take him or her to class, and provide support so that the child feels a friendly adult is always available.
    Changes at home can include supportive language from parents, along with support like assistance with homework. If a child lacks confidence, parents may encourage the child to take up new hobbies that will help them to feel good about themselves. Parents might also talk to their children about their own fears of school and how they got over them, and their own enjoyment of school and school-like activities.
    By following these methods we can help children to dispel their school phobia.
    41. Which of the following topics is NOT discussed in the passage?
    A. The definition of school phobia.
    B. The history of school phobia.
    C. The causes of school phobia.
    D. The effects of school phobia.
    42. What is a useful treatment for school phobia according to the passage?
    A. Parents should allow their children occasional days off.
    B. Teachers should be stricter with students.
    C. Children should be helped to develop a sense of achievement.
    D. Children should be regularly sent to psychologist.
    43. The underlined word “dispel” (the last paragraph) probably means “________”.
    A. accept               B. realize       C. forget                  D. overcome
    44. Which of the following statement might the author agree with?
    A. School phobia is most often suffered by middle school students.
    B. School phobia may have bad influence on children’s future life if neglected.
    C. Children with school phobia should not be given medical treatment.
    D. Most children with school phobia are pretending to be ill.
    45. What are some of the reasons for school phobia mentioned in the passage?
    A. Bullying, recent devoice and moving to a new area.
    B. Learning disability, impatience and poor concentration.
    C. Stomachache, poor school performance and aggressive teachers.
    D. Shaking, lack of confidence and few friends.

    阅读文章后，从第54至58题所给A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。
    Most people call it "body language" —the clues（线索） to the meaning that we get from gesture, facial expressions, posture —everything that isn't spoken．Experts call it "nonverbal communication," but it means the same thing: a second source of human communication that is often more reliable to understanding what is really going on than the words themselves．
    Understanding body language is important to success, whether in the business world or in our personal lives．However, most of our ideas about body language are wrong, according to modern communication research．
    There is a belief that people with shifty （变化的） eyes are probably lying．As Paul Ekman says, "When we asked people how they could tell if someone was lying, too much blinking（眨眼） and shifty eyes were the winners．But sometimes people act like that because they are shy．Liars pretend to be calm in order not to be caught．
    Ekman goes on to argue against such a wrong belief．Although this kind of body language is probably an expression of nervousness, it is not always because the person is lying．Shyness can, for example, make people shift their eyes．To understand what someone's behavior means, you have to watch them carefully．
    There is also a belief that when meeting someone, the more eye contact, the better．As a result people would like to make initial （开始的） contact in formal situations, like a job interview, by staring fixedly at the other human．Yet Ekman points out that most of us are comfortable with eye contact lasting a few seconds, but any eye contact that is longer than that can make us nervous．
    In short, you must carefully consider the speaker and the speaking environment．Experts suggest that unless you know about someone's basic communication style, you will have little hope in understanding their true feelings through body language．In other words, body language carries important but not always true messages．
    小题1:According to the passage, body language is _____．
    A．a language that is not spokenB．a clue to get the meaning
    C．a reflection of people's behaviorsD．a source of human communication
    小题2:The word "that" in paragraph 3 refers to ____．
    A．blinkingB．lyingC．staringD．pretending
    小题3:From the passage we can learn that ____．
    A．there is no doubt that a liar has shifty eyes
    B．people sometimes blink because of shyness
    C．eye contact lasting a few seconds can make us nervous
    D．understanding body language is more helpful in business
    小题4:How many examples are given by the writer to support his point of view?
    A．1．B．2．C．3．D．4．
    小题5:It can be inferred from the passage that _____．
    A．body language is trustworthy in telling who is lying
    B．body language helps us better understand other people
    C．sometimes we can't judge a person by watching his body language
    D．the speaker and the speaking environment are important to a person's body language

    COOL INVENTIONS




    From school to band Practice, the Venturi Eclectic is an Earth-friendly way to get Where you want to go．This battery-powered, zero-emission (meaning it doesn't pollute the air) vehicle runs mainly on renewable energy．Solar panels on the Eclectic's roof absorb sun rays when you're driving．On windy days, you can connect a machine to the car's roof that collects energy from the wind while you're parked．The Eclectic's top speed is 28 miles an hour; the battery lasts for 31 miles before it needs to be recharged．Zipping (迅速行进) around the neighborhood has never been better.
    Here's an eco-friendly way to tell time: Simply fill the Bedol Water-powered Clock's tank (箱) with water, add some lemon juice, and the clock will display the time without the need for environmentally harmful batteries．There are two sets of metal electrodes (电极) inside the water tank．Water contains ions (离子) that carry negative and positive charges．These ions complete a charge between the electrodes, creating enough energy to power the clock．Just refill the tank every few weeks, and this clock will keep on ticking.
    Bloodhound SuperSonic Car (SSC) will be the first car to attempt to break the l,000-mile-an-hour barrier．(The current record is 763 miles an hour.) A concept for now, the rocket-shaped car gets its initial push to 350 miles an hour from a jet engine．Then a rocket fires up, pushing the SSC past 1,000 miles an hour．In order to keep the car streamlined (流线型的), the driver lies back at a 45-degree angle.
    You're having a blast at your friend's birthday party．But when it's time to bring out the cake, everyone crowds around, blocking your view．No worries．Throw the Triops into the air, and this clever camera captures the view from above．The Triops can take three pictures at once, each from different angles．You can also record sounds and command the Triops to start shooting whenever it hears that noise．That's one smart camera.
    小题1:According to the passage, the Venturi Eclectic      .
    A．is popular with businessmenB．is suitable for a long trip
    C．can turn wind into energyD．has only a little gas emission

    Our surrounding(周围) is being polluted faster than nature and man’s present efforts can’t prevent it. Time is bringing us more people, and more people will bring us more industry, more cars, larger cities, and the growing use of man-made materials.
    What can explain and solve this problem? The fact is that pollution is caused by man—by his desire for a modern way of life. We make “increasing industrialization” our chief aim. So we are always ready to offer everything: clean air, pure water, good food, our health and the future of our children. There is a constant flow of people from countryside to cities, eager for the benefit of our modern society. But as our technological achievements have grown in the last twenty years, pollution has become a serious problem.
    Isn’t it time we stopped to ask ourselves where we are going—and why? It makes one think of the story about the airline pilot who told his passengers over the loudspeaker, “I’ve some good news and some bad news. The good news is that we’re making rapid progress at 530 miles per hour. The bad news is that we’re lost and don’t know where we’re going.” The sad fact is that this becomes a true story when spoken of our modern society.
    小题1:Man can’t prevent the world from being polluted mainly because        .
    A．many man-made materials
    B．more cars, trucks and buses
    C．more people and more industry
    D．more cities
    小题2:People crowd into the cities because_________.
    A．they want very much to find well-paid jobs
    B．they eager for the achievement of our modern society
    C．they have become tired of their homeland
    D．they have a strong wish to become industrial workers
    小题3:The story about the airline pilot tells us that_________.
    A．man knows where the society is going
    B．people do not welcome the rapid development of modern society
    C．man can do little about the problem of pollution
    D．the writer is worried about the future of our society
    小题4:What does the writer really want to say in this passage?
    A．With the development of technology, pollution has become a serious problem.
    B．Lower the speed of development to stop pollution.
    C．It’s time we did something to reduce pollution.
    D．As industry is growing fast, pollution is the natural result.

    Many do-it-yourself homeowners are interested in
    trying out solar power to leam about the technology and
    perhaps to provide energy for limited-use applications．
    There are a variety of ways to find cheap solar panels
    （板）, including buying used and building your own
    with factory seconds．Both methods will save money
    while forcing you to learn the ins-and-outs of a solar
    power array （阵列）．  
    We've all seen solar-powered street signs or PV
    panels being used for various purposes at remote locations．
    When those units become cracked or chipped and are considered "unsafe", companies are forced to replace them, generally to avoid responsibility issues．Because it's difficult to get rid of PV panels, many companies, if approached, are willing to give them away or to sell them for modest prices．Depending on the degree of damage present, expect to see performance degradation （降级） in the range of 10% to 60%．A multimeter （万用表） can be used to test the panel before buying．If the panel's free, take it anyway．It could still be useful in a home solar project．
    A solar panel is really nothing but a box serving as a container for a large group of solar cells．Factory second solar cells are usually sold on eBay at a small part of their regular cost．The cells come in a variety of sizes．You will need to figure out how much power a single cell produces to determine how many will need to be wired together to form an array．
    A simple search of the Internet will show numerous sites detailing home solar panel projects．Do-it-yourself lovers are generally quite generous in supply photographs of their work and description of what went wrong and right with the project．
    Getting cheap solar panels with slight imperfections, either used or through sales of factory seconds, is a perfect solution for home-built renewable energy projects．The high number of solar lovers online provide a wealth of useful information．Only limited skills are required, plus an understanding of the basic wiring involved．All are well within the talents of almost any home handyman．Beyond the satisfaction of having completed the project, you'll come away with a functional solar panel that will be a source of power for use around the house or at remote locations．
    Solar energy systems are quickly becoming more popular with homeowners as prices continue to decline．
    72．The author writes the passage to introduce ____．
    A．ways of finding cheap solar panels B．ways of saving energy
    C．a way of making a solar panel     D．a home-built energy system
    73．What does the phrase "factory seconds" in the passage refer to?
    A．Second-hand factory products．  B．Cheap but perfect factory products
    C．Faulty factory solar cells．        D．The second best factory solar cells
    74．From Paragraph 5, we can learn about home-built energy projects that ____．
    A．none of them are beyond home handymen
    B．a lot of useful information is available on the Internet
    C．a perfect solution is to get cheap and perfect solar panels
    D．understanding electrical wiring is not necessarily needed
    75．What is the author's attitude towards the future of solar energy systems?
    A．Optimistic．  B．Pessimistic.      C．Indifferent．         D．Doubtful

    The magnitude 7.9 quake struck Sichuan province on May 12 at around noontime, which may have increased the human death toll because many people were at school, and the school buildings turned out to be not firm enough to collapse because of poor construction. More than 69,000 people have been confirmed dead so far, and more than 374,000 injured, with fears of further disasters because several lakes created by rockfall dams may give way and cause sudden flooding.
    Clark Burchfiel, Schlumberger Professor of Geology, and Leigh Royden, professor of geology and geophysics in the Department of Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences at MIT, have been doing extensive research in that region of China and the Tibetan plateau(高原) for more than two decades, but had found no signs that suggested such a large earthquake might strike the area.
    The team operated 25 broadband seismograph (地震仪) stations in this region of western Sichuan for more than a year. "Nobody was thinking there would be a major earthquake in that area," Royden says. "This earthquake was quite unusual, and may have involved a simultaneously（同时发生的） severe break of two separate but neighboring faults," she continued.
    The region is extremely unusual geologically, Royden says, because of the very steep slopes at the boundary between the Sichuan Basin to the east and the Tibetan plateau to the west. The altitude rises sharply by about 3,500 meters (more than two miles) over a span of only about 50 kilometers (about 30 miles).
    The area where the quake occurred is part of the boundary between two of the Earth's structural plates, where the Indian and Asian plates meet in an ongoing collision that has created the Himalayan mountains and the Tibetan plateau. But in central and eastern Tibet, unlike most other areas of continental collision, much of the movement of crust（地壳） is hidden from view. Instead of thickening the entire crust by folding and faulting, the surface of the eastern Tibetan plateau is not deformed（变形的） and is being lifted upward by thickening of a weak crustal layer more than 15 km below the surface.
    60. Why did the school buildings collapse in the earthquake, according to the passage?
    A. They had too long a history.
    B. They were poorly built.
    C. They were crowded with students and teachers.
    D. They were damaged by the earthquake.
    61. Based on Para. 1, why does the writer think that more people will be killed or injured after 
    the earthquake?
    A. Because there will be more aftershocks after the major quake.
    B. Because more school buildings will collapse after the quake.
    C. Because destructive flooding caused by rockfall dams is likely to occur..
    D. Because there was not enough medical care for the injured in the area.
    62. What can we infer from this passage?
    A. There was no prediction that such a large-scale quake might occur there.
    B. Researchers had done little research in that area before the earthquake struck it.
    C. The 5.12 earthquake was the most destructive in the world.
    D. If more research had been done, the destruction could have been avoided.
    63. Which one can be used as the best title for this passage?
    A. The Great Disasters.
    B. The Earthquake was very frightening.
    C. The Causes of the earthquake.
    D. An Extremely Unusual Earthquake.

    In learning a foreign language, one should first pay attention to speaking. It is the groundwork of reading and writing. You’d better try your best to speak. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. But be careful not to let them keep you from improving the language. While you are doing this, a good exercise is to write – keep a diary, write notes, letters or articles, then if you can, ask someone to go through what you have written and tell you where is wrong . Many mistakes in your speaking will be easily found when you write. Through correcting the mistakes, you can do better in learning a language.
    If you are slow in speaking, don’t worry. One of the helpful ways is by reading, either aloud or to yourself. The important thing is to choose something interesting to read.

    What causes traffic jams? Too many cars, right? No! Some Brits are now saying that traffic lights are to blame for much of the congestion（交通拥挤）. They suggest that traffic lights be removed at busy roads. They believe people are a better judge of when it’s safe to go, not a traffic light programmed by an absent regulator.
    A report from the Institute of Economic Affairs, a UK think tank（智囊团）, argues that abolishing traffic signals would decrease congestion, reduce exhaust emissions（废气排放）and improve safety.
    The report said that removing lights should also prevent other bad behavior caused by signals, such as speeding up to catch a green light. It would also avoid the wasted time when drivers have to sit at a red light even if no one is using the green.
    The idea may sound strange, but it’s not new. Seven cities and regions in Europe are experimenting with no-lights roads.
    Drachten in the Netherlands has got rid of 16 of its traffic light crossings and changed the other two to roundabouts under a “shared space” scheme. At crossings, cyclists dutifully raise their arm when they want to make a turn, and drivers follow a first-arrived, first-through approach and communicate by hand signs, nods and waving.
    The result? Typical journey time has been cut in half, and accidents and congestion have mostly disappeared.
    There have been small collisions but no problem, said Hans Monderman, creator of the scheme. “We want small accidents, in order to prevent serious ones. It works well because it’s dangerous. The driver has to be responsible for his or her own risk.
    “The many rules take away the ability to be considerate,” Monderman added. “We’re losing our responsibility for socially responsible behavior.”
    So far, Drachten’s locals have called the experiment a success. “I am used to it now,” said Helena Spaanstra, 24. “You drive more slowly and carefully, but somehow you seem to get around town quicker.”
    Tony Ooostward, 70, was equally enthusiastic. “I am a walker and now you are the boss at the crossroads, everyone waits for you. But at the same time walkers wait until there are a number of people wanting to cross at the same time.”
    Owen Paterson, UK’s Shadow Transport Minister, visited Drachten. He said Britain should learn from the model. “The idea is to create space where there is mild anxiety among everyone so they all behave cautiously. No one drives fast along a busy street thinking that they have right of way.”
    60.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
    A. Don’t Count On Traffic Lights              B. New Traffic Systems Needed
    C. Turn Those Traffic Lights Off         D. Let People Have More Say In Traffic
    61.According to the report from the Institute of Economic Affairs, abolishing traffic lights would NOT lead to ____.
    A. more time being saved                   B. reduction of traffic jams
    C. improvement of the environment    D. right of way being taken for granted
    62.The underlined word “collision” in Paragraph 7 means closest to ____.
    A. jam     B. accident     C. trouble     D. congestion
    63.From the passage we can see that the experiment in Drachten worked well because ____.
    A. walkers have become the boss of the crossroads
    B. cyclists, walkers and drivers each have specially designed routes
    C. everyone finds that they have to do their share in regulating traffic
    D. drivers are more careful and wait for eyclists or walkers to pass first
