    Artistic Skates
    Artistic roller skates are made up of a leather boot, very strong sole plate, and a jump bar that adds extra force. The boot sits a few inches above the ankle, providing more support for the foot.
    Jam Skates
    Jam skates are the most different roller skates because of their special low-cut design and lack of toe stop. That’s right: there is no brake. But the original jam skate design was different, resembling an artistic skate. Jam skating is more about personal expression rather than speed skating. The free-flowing movements of jam skating have been given many names. But regardless of its name, jam skating has always been about expression and passion.
    Speed Skates
    A speed skate resembles a shoe. The cut of the boot is lower. Speed skates typically offer lightweight plates to reduce exhaustion for skating long distances. Jam skates have preferred speed skates because they offer a similar design and freedom of movement. The most obvious difference is that a speed skate features a toe stop, unlike a jam skate that uses a toe plug.
    Rhythm Skates
    Rhythm skates are similar to jam skates. The difference between them lies in the boot design. In fact, the boot design looks very similar to an artistic skate, essentially providing you with the ankle support benefits of an artistic skate, but the freedom of movement of a jam skate. If you want a skate that allows you to move to the beat, which added ankle support, the rhythm skate is the ideal choice.
    小题1:Which of the following is NOT a feature of jam skates?
    A．They have no brake
    B．They lack a toe stop
    C．They have no toe plug.
    D．They have a unique, low-cut design.
    小题2:If you want to skate to music, which of the following is the best choice?
    A．Rhythm skates B．Jam skates C．Speed skates D．Artistic skates
    小题3:Speed skates are popular with jam skates because _____.
    A．they have a high boot cut
    B．they allow free-flowing movement.
    C．they are able to stabilize the foot
    D．they can help jam skates reduce tiredness.
    小题4:What is a common feature of rhythm and jam skates?
    A．They both offer some support for the ankles.
    B．They both have a similar boot design.
    C．They are both suitable for free-flowing movement.
    D．They are both about personal expression and passion.
    小题5:What can you learn from the passage about jam skates?
    A．The original jam skate design has hardly changed.
    B．The original jam skate design was similar to an artistic skate.
    C．Jam skates have gradually become a type of speed skate.
    D．Jam skating has many names because it’s about expression and passion.

    小题1:C
    小题2:A
    小题3:B
    小题4:C
    小题5:B

    试题分析：本文介绍了几种不同的skate种类，并介绍了各自的特点特色。
    小题1:C 细节题。根据第二部分1，2行because of their special low-cut design and lack of toe stop. That’s right: there is no brake.说明ABD都是jam skates的特点。C项文章没有提及。故C项符合题目的要求。
    小题2:A 推理题。根据文章最后2行If you want a skate that allows you to move to the beat, which added ankle support, the rhythm skate is the ideal choice.可知如果我们按照节拍来滑冰，也就是跟随音乐来滑冰，那么Rhythm skates是最好的选择，故A正确。
    小题3:B 细节题。根据文章2,3部分的Jam skates have preferred speed skates because they offer a similar design and freedom of movement.和The free-flowing movements of jam skating have been given many names.都说明free-flowing movement.是这两者受欢迎的原因，故B正确。
    小题4:C 细节题。根据The free-flowing movements of jam skating have been given many names. 和the freedom of movement of a jam skate. 说明这两项的共同之处就是free-flowing movements故C正确。
    小题5:B 细节题。根据第二部分的But the original jam skate design was different, resembling an artistic skate.说明它最初是与an artistic skate 类似的，故B正确。

    If you are thinking of putting your child in a private high school instead of a public one, you should do some research. You will find that most private schools offer some advantages.
    One of the most important details of a good high school is small class size. Many public schools might have 30 or even 35 students in each class. However, many private schools limit the size to about 15 to 20 kids per class. This is a good thing because it allows each teacher to offer every student more attention.
    Another thing to mention is the interesting classes. For example, while the typical (典型的) high school might only offer Spanish and French as foreign languages, private schools often have several other languages to choose from. This is especially important if your child is actually interested in studying a particular language that is not usually offered. Of course, many colleges also consider the various (各种各样的) classes as a good thing, since they can teach students more different subjects than usual.
    Some colleges actually work closely with schools to make sure students are prepared well to get an advanced education. This means that teachers are careful to teach skills that can be used in college. Also, college teachers may be on-hand to talk to students and give them advice. If you think your child could use some help of this kind, which would likely help prepare him or her for college, you should look into schools offering these things.
    A simple visit to the website or campus (校园) of a local private high school could give you the answers you are looking for. If you think your child would benefit from and appreciate these advantages, you should start researching. You are sure to find at least one that offers these benefits.
    小题1:By writing this text, the author is probably encouraging parents to    .
    A．pay attention to their children’s study
    B．appreciate the advantages of public schools
    C．help their children choose right colleges
    D．send their children to private high schools
    小题2:In the third paragraph the author stresses the importance of      .
    A．teacher’s roleB．different kinds of classes
    C．learning foreign languagesD．proper study methods
    小题3:According to the text, colleges might like to choose students who    .
    A．live close to collegesB．have interest in sports
    C．have wide knowledgeD．come from public high schools

    A good student is always equated to one who gets good grades. But is that all that a good student is? What is a   1 good student? Is he someone who is the teacher's pet? Someone who tops every test? Someone who has the smarts? A good student is all this and more, because, you see, it’s not just about books and repetitive  2 .
    Being a good student takes much more than that. There are certain  3 that make him a good student. That is  4 what we shall be looking into – the qualities of a good student. There will help you  5 what a good student is and what are the qualities that one needs in order to become one.
    A good student has great   6 skills. He has the ability to plan and organize not only his actions but his  7 as well, for being well organized allows a person to be prepared for all the situations that are to   8 . That could not have been   9 if he had taken up the studies at the last minute.

He is instead someone who will do his work sincerely and put in all his efforts without compromising on quality.

    The home of the future won’t be completely different and we will be living in houses and flats just as we do today．But people will want to shape their homes to match their dreams．No two homes will be the same．People will be able to buy “house kits” containing a basic house structure, with movable walls, doors and windows．They will put together the different parts to create the home they want．
    Many jobs that we do today will disappear, others will still exist but will change and new jobs will be created. Skilled workers such as builders, gardeners and electricians won’t disappear because machines can’t replace them. Teachers will still exist because students need human contact. But they will be using modern technology in class more and students will be working more from home. The medical technology revolution and space travel will create new jobs which we can only imagine today．
    Space holidays will develop in the future, but these holidays won’t be for everyone because they won’t be cheap. Short space trips will develop first, then space hotels will orbit the earth where it will be possible to have a longer vacation. By the end of the next century, there will be holiday centres on the moon with leisure facilities for families．
    Paper won’t exist in the future. Instead, there will be e-paper which people will be able to use over and over again. This will develop in order to save natural resources. E-newspapers and e-magazines will replace traditional newspapers and magazines and we will download information and news articles from the Internet every day onto our reuseable paper．
    The laws of physics tell us that the earth is going to disappear some time in the future．This isn’t going to happen tomorrow but scientists predict that it will happen in five billion years when our sun explodes (爆炸)．We will have to explore the universe and find another home. At some point in the distant future, either we stay on the earth and die with it, or we leave and move to another planet. There won’t be any other choice.

    From the health point of view we are living in a marvelous age. We are immunized (免疫) from birth against many of the most dangerous diseases. A large number of once deadly illnesses can now be cured by modern drugs and medical treatment. It is almost certain that one day cures will be found for the most stubborn remaining diseases. The expectation of life has increased enormously. But though the possibility of living a long and happy life is greater than ever before, every day we witness the unbelievable slaughter (屠杀) of men, women and children on the roads. Man vs the motor-car! It is a never-ending battle which man is losing. Thousands of people the world over are killed or horribly killed each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting it happen.
    It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel (方向盘), his car becomes the extension of his personality. There is no doubt that the motor-car often brings out a man’s very worst qualities. People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecognizable when they are behind a steering-wheel. They are ill-mannered and aggressive, willful as two-year-olds and absolutely selfish. All their hidden disappointments and regrets seem to be brought by the act of driving.
    The surprising thing is that society smiles so kindly on the motorist and seems to forgive his behavior. Everything is done for his convenience. Cities are allowed to become almost impossible to live in because of heavy tragic; towns are made ugly by huge car parks; the countryside is ruined by road networks; and the mass annual slaughter becomes nothing more than a statistic, to be conveniently forgotten.
    It is high time a world system of laws were created to reduce this senseless waste of human life. As for driving, the laws of some countries are not strict and even the strictest are not strict enough. Here are a few examples of some the things that might be done. The driving test should be standardized and made far more difficult than it is; all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years or so; the age at which young people are allowed to drive any vehicle should be raised to at least 21; all vehicles should be put through strict annual tests for safety. Even the smallest amount of alcohol in the blood can affect a person’s driving ability. Present drinking and driving laws (where they exist) should be made much stricter. Maximum and minimum speed limits should be introduced on all roads. Governments should lay down safety specifications (规范) for manufacturers, as has been done in the USA. All advertising stressing power and performance should be banned. These measures may sound inordinately severe. But surely nothing should be considered as too severe if it results in reducing the annual toll of human life. After all, the world is for human beings, not motor-cars.
    小题1:The main idea of this passage is _________.
    A．Traffic accidents are mainly caused by motorists.
    B．Thousands of people the world over are killed each year.
    C．The laws of some countries about driving are not too strict.
    D．Only stricter traffic laws can prevent accidents.
    小题2:What does the author think of society toward motorists?
    A．Society laughs at the motorists.
    B．Huge car parks are built in the cities and towns.
    C．Victims of accidents are nothing.
    D．Society forgives their rude driving.
    小题3:Why does the author say: “his car becomes the extension of his personality?”
    A．Driving can show his real self.
    B．Driving can show the other part of his personality.
    C．Driving can bring out his character.
    D．His car can express his temper.
    小题4:Which of the followings is NOT mentioned as a way against traffic accidents?
    A．Build more highways.B．Make stricter driving tests
    C．Test drivers every three years.D．Raise age limit and lay down safety specifications.

    A．ironical B．criticalC．appealingD．favorable

    As the father of a student, I have experienced first hand what a great teacher is. My son was in the 4th grade last year, and he had a teacher called Miss Green. I believe that when he is an adult he will surely look back on her as the best teacher he has ever had.
    My son has attention deficit disorder(注意力缺损症) that makes it a little more difficult for him to learn. She was able to change her teaching methods for him so that he could keep up with the rest of the class. As a result, he got straight As on many subjects. She regarded her class as a family and they even had their own class song. She would often have them sing it to encourage them and develop a team spirit for them. When she saw that they were no longer listening carefully to what she was teaching, she would have them close their textbooks, stand up all around the room and throw around a small football. This helped them clear their minds and then focus on the lesson again. Besides, she was quick to reply to any phone calls or emails from us and got rid of our worries about children quickly.
    When my son went to the 5th grade this year, we happened to pass her classroom. When she saw my son, her face lit up(露出喜色) and she came out and hugged him. She generally loves all of the children in her classroom and that love really shows. I can only pray(祈祷) that my son will continue to get teachers just like her for the rest of his school years.

    When you think of all the ways your body can get hurt---falling off a bike, stepping on a nail, being bitten by a crazed dog---the aches and pains that come from sitting at a computer may not seem like much.
    But more doctors are getting worried about just that. If you sit at a PC the wrong way, the nerves and muscles in your back, neck and arms can get out of line.
    Ergonomics is the study of how people work and how jobs and equipment can be designed so that people are safer and more comfortable in the things they do---whether that’s working on a factory assembly line or sitting in front of a computer.
    The monitor
    You should not have to tilt（倾斜） your neck up or down to lock at the screen. Your eyes should be level with the top of the screen.
    How far away should you sit? Reach your arm out so your fingertips just touch the screen.
    The keyboard
    It should be directly in front of you. Don’t unfold the legs on the bottom of the keyboard so that it tilts up toward you---it should be as flat as possible, or even tilted away from you. You want your wrists “neutral,” which means straight, not bent. This puts less strain on your nerves and muscles.
    Arms should be close to the body. Don’t look at your fingers as you type. Use a document holder to hold papers at the same level as the monitor. Keep the mouse on the same level as the keyboard and close by--- so you don’t have to reach for it.
    The chair
    Your feet shouldn’t dangle---the blood will pool in your feet. They should rest flat on the floor, or on phone books, if necessary. Your back needs support. Roll up a towel and stick it there.
    The Body
    If you think of your body as a collection of right angles when you sit at a computer, you should be just fine.
    Your hips should be at a 90-degree angle to your back. That takes the pressure off the spine. And your knees should bend at a 90 degree angle so your feet are flat.
    小题1:The passage mainly talks about        .
    A．avoiding pains caused by using PCB．the science of ergonomics
    C．illness caused by a computerD．how to keep fit
    小题2:The underlined word “ergonomics” most probably means ______ in Chinese.  
    A．管理学B．人机工程学C．机械工程学D．经济学
    小题3:How high should a monitor be placed according to the passage?
    A．As high as your arms.
    B．A little higher than your eyes.
    C．A little lower than your eyes.
    D．At the same level as your eyes.
    小题4:How shouldn’t a keyboard be placed?
    A．Tilting away from you.B．Tilting up toward you.
    C．Flat.D．Not mentioned.
    小题5:How should you place your foot?
    A．Rest them on a phone book.B．Rest them on the floor.
    C．They should rest flat.D．They should dangle.

    I was telling my boy Sonny the story of the hare (兔子) and the tortoise (乌龟). At the end I said, “ Son, remember: Be slow and steady (镇定的), and that will win the race. Don’t you think there’s something to learn from the tortoise?”
    Sonny opened his eyes wide, “Do you mean next time when I’m entering for the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy, Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway?”
    I was shocked, “But the tortoise didn’t wish that the hare would fall asleep!”
    “He must have wished that,” Sonny said, “Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare? He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.”
    “He didn’t have such a wish,” I insisted. “He won the race by perseverance (坚忍不拔的), by pushing on steadily.”
    Sonny thought a while. “That’s a lie,” he said. “He won it because he was lucky. If the hare hadn’t happened to fall asleep, the tortoise would never have won the race. He could be as steady as you like, or a hundred times steadier, but he’d never have won the race. That’s for sure.”
    I gave up. Today’s children are not like what we used to be. They’re just hopeless.

    A．won the race by his own hard working
    B．took a risk (冒险) by agreeing to run a race
    C．was not given a fair chance in the race
    D．in fact did win the race luckily
    小题3:Billy, Tony and Sandy must be_______________.
    A．boys who were unknown to Sonny’s father
    B．boys who Sonny has run races with before
    C．boys who Sonny has never raced with before
    D．boys who Sonny did not expect to race with again

    A．are cleverer than Sonny’s generation
    B．have the same ideas about life as Sonny’s generation
    C．are more hopeful than Sonny’s generation
