12.You may picture firefighters holding a hose (水管) outside of a burning building,but the Golden Eagles Hotshots don't fight fires quite that way.When they go into action,you may not even see a fire truck.
The Hotshots are firefighters who battle fires in wildness areas.But don't think you'll only find them in their home state California.Wherever there is a national wildfire emergency,the Golden Eagles Hotshots could be there.
But these firefighters don't work the same way as firefighters in a big city.They work in areas where there are a large number of trees,bushes,and grass.They climb up and down steep hills to clear brush and burnable debris(残骸).They sometimes use water,but they often fight fire with fire!
They do that by lighting what are called"backfires,"which are small,controlled fires that burn up fuel in the path of large wildfires.That way,when the wildfire gets there,it has nothing to burn and nowhere to go,because all the burnable fuel has already gone up in smoke.
The Hotshots also clear away fuel using old-fashioned hard work.For example,they use a saw to cut away trees and heavy brush that could catch fire.
Of course there are times when the Golden Eagles Hotshots do have trucks to supply water to the fires.But the water is limited,and these guys have to rely on hard work more than anything.Physical fitness is very important.They have to be in great physical shape to handle steep hills and difficult terrain(地形) while carrying a 60-pound pack.
The Golden Eagles Hotshots definitely work hard for their pay.But thanks to their efforts,many lives have been saved,many houses have not burned,and countless trees are still standing.
67.The firefighters mentioned in the passenger.D
A.do much of their work in California
B.avoid climbing steep hills in their work
C.do their work equipped with advanced tools.
D.carry out their work mostly in forests and mountains.
68.According to the passage,why do the firefighters light"backfires"?D
A.To signal for help.
B.To remove obstacles.
C.To protect trees and bushes.
D.To prevent the fire from spreading.
69.What can we learn about the Golden Eagles Hotshots?B
A.They are firefighters working in big cities.
B.Their work requires physical strength.
C.They are voluntary firefighters working for free.
D.They usually hold a hose to put out the fires.
70.What is the author's attitude towards the Golden Eagles Hotshots?A
A.Appreciative 
B.Doubtful 
C.Worried 
D.Critical.

This (43)A that every morning,I would serve as a teacher's helper for my favorite 6th grade teacher,Mr.Ralston.Morning after morning,I showed up in Mr.Ralston's classroom and(44)C papers for him.
Sometimes,I even (45)D a lesson or two.It was fun,and the students seemed to like me,so I was surprised when it came time for my (46)B.Mr.Ralston looked me right in the eyes and asked,"Do you really want to teach?"
"Had I really been that (47)A?"I thought.
"Don't misunderstand.You'll do fine in teaching,"he continued."But,is your(48)C really in it?"
"Not really,"I (49)C."I want to write.I want to write news stories and fiction and poetry and so much more…but I've been told it's tough to make it as a writer (50)D I thought maybe I would teach and then use my summers(51)D to pursue writing."
As I shared with Mr.Ralston my hopes,dreams and carefully plotted-out back-up plan,he smiled and said,"Why are you preparing to (52)A with this back-up plan?If you want to be a writer,go for it!Pursue writing!"
Mr.Ralston's (53)A to follow my dreams was the little nudge I needed to help me push past my (54)B of not making it as a writer and simply"Go for it!"
That's what an encouraging word will do when spoken in love in (55)Cseason.So,let's try and be like Mr.Ralston and speak that word of encouragement at just the right time and make a difference in someone's life today.

1.A popular saying goes,"Sticks and stones may break my bones,but words will never hurt me."However,that's not really true.Words have the power to build us up or tear us down.It doesn't matter if the words come from someone else or ourselves-the positive and negative effects are just as lasting.
We all talk to ourselves sometimes.We're usually too embarrassed to admit it,though.In fact,we really shouldn't be because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit.
This"self-talk"helps us motivate ourselves,remember things,solve problems,and calm ourselves down.Be aware,though,that as much as 77% of self-talk tends to be negative.So in order to stay positive,we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves.We should also be quick to  give ourselves a pat on the back.The next time you finish a project,do well in a test,or finally clean your room,join me in saying"Good job!"
Often,words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the effect they will have.But we should be aware that our words cause certain responses in others.For example,when returning an item to a store,we might use warm,friendly language during the exchange.And the clerk will probably respond in a similar manner.Or harsh and critical language will most likely cause the clerk to be defensive.
Words possess power because of their lasting effect.Many of us regret something we once said.And we remember unkind words said to us!Before speaking,we should always go through a"ask-yourself"test:Is it true?Is it loving?Is it needed?If what we want to say doesn't pass this test,then it's better left unsaid.
Words possess power:both positive and negative.Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively.We can offer hope,build self-esteem and motivate others to do their best.Negative words destroy all those things.Will we use our words to hurt or to heal?The choice is ours.
(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN 10WORDS.)

81.As to the power of words,the author believes they can eitherbuild us/people up or tear us/people down/be positive or negative/hurt or heal/encourage or discourage us/people.
82.People should only speak words of encouragement to themselves tostay positive.
83.What does the underlined part"give ourselves a pat on the back"mean?encourage/praise ourselves
84.What should we do if the"ask-yourself test"is not passed?We'd better leave the words unsaid..

18.阅读下面短文并回答问题,然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上(请注意问题后的字数要求).
[1]It's a fine line parents walk as they try to guide their kids into adulthood.You want to protect but not treat too kindly,advise but not control and let them live their own lives-with some input,of course.
[2]When your child asks for help or advice,give only what was asked for.If your Child asks you to tie a particular hard-to-tie knot(绳结)for a project she is working on,just tie the knot.Don't start helping with the rest of the project or making suggestions on how to do it.She wants to do it herself,in her own way.Before                 which your child has not askd for,count to ten.Perhaps in those seconds you'll decide that the advice would do no good,or isn't really that important,and you'll drop it.If the advice still seems important,you will give it,but the pause may lead you to give it in a more thoughtful way.
[3]Remember that your child is not you and is not a reflection of you.We mak a serious mistake if we try to shape our children into copies of ourselves,or if we think of them as extensions or reflections of ourselves.We need to help them to be them,not try to turn them into us or into something that we think will make us look good.
[4]Our primary responsibility to our children is not that of telling them moment-to-moment or day-to-day how to behave but providing them with a healthy environment in which to develop.For example,one of the best ways you can help your kids is to work with your community to create safe-enough outdoor places to play in your neighborhood.
76.What's the best title of this text?(no more than 10 words)
Teach Children Wisely and Well/Guide Kids Into Adulthood Wisely                                                                   
77.Which sentence in the text is closest in meaning to the following one?
It's not your duty to help her finish the whole thing or give her advice on the way of doing it.
Don't start helping with the rest of the project or making suggestions on how to do it.                                                                              
78.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 2 with proper words.(no more than 5  words)
offering help or advice/you offer help or advice                                                                             
79.Make a list of three mistakes that we parents usually make in guiding the kids.(no more than 24 words)
(1)shaping the kids into our copies
(2)thinking of the kids as our extensions
(3)trying to turn the kids into us

The queen noticed the balloon and asked her perscnla assistant,Angela Kelly,to write a letter on behalf of her.
She wrote,"The queen was delighted to find that your balloon had traveled all the way to the garden at Windsor Castle."

Along with his parents,Tom wrote back to fill in all the gaps about Petrus Johannes Arundzen.
Since Tom's parents don't think there will be any more letters exchanged between the pair,they were touched that the queen had taken time to contact them.
Tom's father said,"I don't expect we'll get another one,but I think  it's incredible they bothered replying at all"
