【要点综述】本文是一篇议论文。文章就有天赋的学生是不是应该进特殊班的问题进行了讨论,调查表明被分在特殊班的学生并没有人们想象的好效果,特殊班里的学生过分依赖老师的引导,反而对学习失去了兴趣。
小题1:C 考查名词辨析。根据文意可知分班的争论依据是:普通班会阻碍有天赋学生的发展。
小题2:C 考查现在分词的用法。这里指为普通学生设计的普通班的学习环境。
小题3:D考查形容词词义辨析。后文指为普通学生设计的普通班。与前面的gifted相对的是average(普通的,一般的)。故选D。
小题4:B 考查形容词的词义辨析及语境理解。特殊班能帮助学生早毕业,尽早的走进生活。
小题5:A 考查语境理解。根据上文可知:此处指有天赋的孩子们。把有天赋的孩子们从普通班分出来产生了严重问题。
小题6:A考查形容词词义辨析及语境理解。此处intelligent意为:聪明的,有天赋的;它与gifted同意。
小题7:B考查形容词词义辨析及语境理解。把特殊班里的有天赋的学生放到普通班里进行调研。后文有提示:In the regular class。
小题8:D 考查副词的词义及语境。在特殊班里的学生没怎么表现出运用自己的判断力的能力,相反,他们过分依赖老师的引导。
小题9:C考查副词词义及语境理解。由having no worry about keeping up可知:在普通班有天赋的学生不必担心跟上课程的问题,所以他们就会自动的思考许多问题。此处voluntarily意为:自愿地,主动地。
小题10:B考查形容词词义辨析及语境理解。许多人担心他们会感到厌烦从而对学习失去兴趣。
小题11:A考查名词词义辨析及语境理解。这种担心更多来源于老师和家长而不是学生。
小题12:B考查名词词义辨析及语境理解。根据上文的parents and teachers可知,一些老师有了应该为那些有天赋的学生设立特殊班的想法,因为老师比家长更了解学校的情况。
小题13:A 考查形容词词义辨析及语境理解。根据上文应为有天赋的学生。此处talented与gifted同意。
小题14:D考查动词词义辨析及语境理解。他们为什么会有这样的感觉是因为不适应学校的课程。
小题15:C考查形容词词义及语境理解。根据上文Studies have shown that to be bored is to be anxious可知此处选C。

If you are lost in the mountains, stay calm in the face of darkness, loneliness, and the unknown. It will greatly increase your chances of survival. Many people think that   preparing necessary equipment and knowing how to use it are very important, but in fact eighty percent of mountain survival is your reaction(反应) to fear.
Finding a hiding place
Unnecessary labor (劳动) will make you sweat and make you cold. Find a hiding place around you before trying to start your own construction. If you are in a snow-covered area, you may be able to dig a cave in deep snow for protection from the wind. You should try to hide yourself in the middle of the mountain if possible. Stay out of the valleys--- cold air falls, and the valley floor can be the coldest area on the mountain.
Signal(发信号) rescuers for help
The best time to signal rescuers is during the day. Signal for help from the highest point possible--- it will be easier for rescuers to see you, and any sound you make will travel farther. If you take a box of matches and a space blanket ( a special blanket for traveling ), build three smoky fires and put your blanket ---gold side facing out --- on the ground.
Do not walk away
It will make finding you more difficult , as search teams will be trying to follow your path and may miss you if you have gone off in a different direction. Searchers often end up finding a car with no one in it. If you get frostbitten(冻伤) , do not rewarm the affected area until you are out of danger.
You can walk on frostbitten(冻伤) feet, but once you warm the area and can feel the pain, you will not want to walk anywhere. Try to protect the frostbitten area and keep it dry until you are rescued.
小题1: When lost in the mountains, you can increase your chances of survival if you _____.
A.take a space blanket with youB.do more physical labor
C.try to find a car immediatelyD.walk as far as possible
小题2: According to the passage, people most probably fail to survive if they ______
A.do not take enough equipmentB.stay in the middle of the mountain
C.do not keep themselves warmD.stay in a snow-covered area
小题3:What can we infer from the passage?
A.Don’t travel by yourselfB.Mountain traveling is dangerous
C.Don’t get frightened in dangerD.Avoid going to unfamiliar places
小题4: Which statement is not true according to the passage?
A.If lost in the mountains, you must try to find a way out quickly.
B.Stay out of the valleys when looking for a hiding place
C.The best time to signal rescuers is during the day
D.With a space blanket, you can put it on the ground---gold side facing out

If you are planning on traveling, there are few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey.
First of all, always check and double-check departure (出发) time. It is surprising how few people really do this carefully. Once I arrived at he airport a few minutes after ten. My secretary had got the ticket for me and I thought she had said that the plane left at 10:50. When I arrived at the airport, the person at the departure desk told me that my flight was closed. Therefore, I had to wait three hours for the next one and missed an important meeting.
The second rule is to remember that even in this age of credit cards (信用卡), it is still important to have some local money in cash (现金). Once I arrived at a place at midnight and the bank at the airport was closed. The only way to get to my hotel was by taxi but because I had no dollars, I offered to pay in pounds instead. “Listen! I only take real money!” the driver said angrily. You can imagine how terrible I felt at that moment.
The third and the last rule is to find out as much as you can about the weather at your destination(目的地) before you leave. I feel sorry for some of my workmates who travel in heavy suits and raincoats in May, when it is still fairly cool in London or Manchester, to places like Athens, Rome of Madrid, where it is already beginning to get quite warm during the day.
小题1:Where is the writer most probably from?
A.BritainB.The USAC.ItalyD.Greece
小题2:When the writer found he had no dollars to pay the taxi driver, he      .
A.asked the driver to give him a free ride
B.offered to pay in pounds
C.gave the driver some fake(假) money
D.tried to pay by credit card
小题3:Generally, in May the weather in London is     .
A.warm and dryB.cold and dry
C.hot and wetD.cool and rainy
小题4:The writer mainly tells us      .
A.how to make life easier
B.how to be well prepared for a trip
C.how to enjoy ourselves on trip
D.how to schedule our trip

Supermarket Morrisons today announced to launch an online shopping operation within two years in a move to catch up with its web-savvy rivals. The UK's fourth biggest supermarket said Morrisons.com would offer grocery and non-food products but would take time to build from zero.
As part of its online development, Morrisons - the only one of the "Big Four" grocers to have a significant internet business - revealed it had invested £32 million in a 10% stake of a New York-based online grocer. The announcement came as Morrisons posted a 13% increase in underlying pre-tax profits of £869 million in the year to January 30.
Morrisons is implementing a growth strategy which is focused on expanding its e-commerce business and moving into the convenience store market. It has earmarked £3 billion in investment over the next three years. The supermarket floated the idea of launching its own website last year and today is the first firm commitment to realising that goal.
Last month, the company took its first major step to launching an online operation with the acquisition of internet retailer Kiddicare for £70 million. The company said this move, along with the 10% "strategic" stake in American online grocer FreshDirect announced today, would help it launch its own website in the future. FreshDirect was launched in 2002 and serves 600,000 customers in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. The deal will see Morrisons chief executive Dalton Philips join the company's board.
Morrisons also revealed it would open three convenience stores, around 3,000 sq ft in size, in July under the name M Local. The shops will be located in Morrisons' heartland in the north of England, in neighbourhoods around the M62 motorway. The company said the convenience business was the second-fastest growing part of the market. Rival models include Tesco Metro and Sainsburys Local.
小题1:FreshDirect severs 600,000 customers in          .
A.ConnecticutB.New JerseyC.New YorkD.certain states
小题2:Which would help Morrisons launch its own wesbsite in the future?
A.Taking measures to beat its rivals as quickly as it could
B.Offering enough grocery and non-food products from zero
C.Building more convenience stores and market in the United States
D.Launching an online operation with the acquisition of interest retailer
小题3:Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?
A.Morrisons Has Many Business Rvials
B.Morrisons Will Launch an Online Operation
C.Morrisons Switches to Run Online Shopping
D.Morrisons Wants to Establish Branches

Some children are natural-born bosses. They have a strong need to make decisions,manage their environment,and lead rather than follow. Stephen Jackson,a Year One student,“operates under the theory of what's mine is mine and what's yours is mine,” says his mother. “The other day I bought two new Star Wars light sabers (剑). Later,I saw Stephen with the two new ones while his brother was using the beat-up ones.”
“Examine the extended family,and you'll probably find a bossy grandparent,aunt,uncle or cousin in every generation. It's an inheritable trait,” says Russell Barkley,a professor at the Medical University of South Carolina. Other children who may not be particularly bossy can gradually gain dominance (支配地位) when they sense their parents are weak,hesitant,or in disagreement with each other.
Whether it's inborn nature or developed character at work,too much control in the hands of the young isn't healthy for children or the family. Fear is at the root of a lot of bossy behavior,says family psychologist John Taylor. Children,he says in his book From Defiance to Cooperation,“have secret feelings of weakness” and “a desire to feel safe.” It's the parents' role to provide that protection.
When a “boss child” doesn't learn limits at home,the stage is set for a host of troubles outside the family. The overly willful and unbending child may have trouble obeying teachers or coaches,for example,or trouble keeping friends. It can be pretty lonely as the top dog if no one likes your bossy ways.
“I see more and more parents giving up their power,” says Barkley,who has studied bossy behavior for more than 30 years. “They bend too far because they don't want to be as strict as their own parents were. But they also feel less confident about their parenting skills. Their kids,in turn,feel more anxious.”
小题1:Bossy children like Stephen Jackson_________.
A.make good decisionsB.show self-centeredness
C.lack care from othersD.have little sense of fear
小题2:The underlined phrase “inheritable trait” in Paragraph 2 means ___________.
A.inborn natureB.developed character
C.accepted theoryD.particular environment
小题3:The study on bossy behavior implies that parents_________.
A.should give more power to their children
B.should be strict with their children
C.should not be so anxious about their children
D.should not set limits for their children
小题4:What is the passage mainly about?
A.How bossy behavior can be controlled.
B.How we can get along with bossy children.
C.What leads to children's bossy behavior.
D.What effect bossy behavior brings about.

Modern life is impossible without travelling. The fastest way of travelling is by plane. With a modern airline you can travel in one day to places which it took a month or more to get to hundred years ago.
Travelling by train is slower than by plane, but it has its advantages(便利). You can see the country you are travelling through. Modern trains have comfortable seats and dining-cars. They make even the longest journey enjoyable.
Some people prefer to travel by sea when possible. There are large liners and river boats. You can visit many other countries and different parts of your country on them. Ships are not so fast as trains or planes, but travelling by sea is a very pleasant way to spend a holiday.
Many people like to travel by car. You can make your own timetable. You can travel three or four hundred miles or only fifty or one hundred miles a day, just as you like. You can stop wherever you wish where there is something interesting to see, at good restaurant where you can enjoy a good meal, or at a hotel to spend the night.

It’s not easy growing up. Growing up can be a real “pain” for some of us. Sometimes we feel trapped, sometimes we feel sad, sometimes we are fearful, and sometimes we just don’t understand why we can’t stay young forever. But we should take a look back on all the hardships in life with a positive attitude and learn from them. We must overcome every obstacle one small step at a time. We should realize that all of our growing pains actually turn into growing gains!
Throughout our lives we are going to face many challenges and pains, but we should never let these obstacles keep us from following our dreams. We must overcome every obstacle one small step at a time.
As a young girl, my parents forced me to do so many things that I didn’t like. They made me learn to play the violin and then the piano. At that time I hated music and I also hated them. But looking back now, I am so glad that my parents encouraged me to take music lessons. Music has enriched(丰富) my life in so many ways. I now realize that my parents and teachers wanted me to have a better life than they did themselves.
We are all going to experience growing pains, but they are just part of our life. They might seem so huge at the time, but we must be strong. Think about how we would feel if we had no challenges and lived a life like that. Life would be really boring and meaningless. The future is ours! A little hard work and sweat never hurt anyone! If we realize that these pains are just small bumps(碰撞) on our road to success, we will realize that our growing pains are actually growing gains!
小题1:The underlined word “obstacles” (in Paragraph 2) roughly means things that ______.
A.are related to your studies
B.you easily achieve
C.make you happy
D.make it difficult for you to do something
小题2:How does the author now feel when remembering what her parents did for her in the past?

A.life without challenges is dull
B.life needs no pains but sunshine and happiness
C.we should give up faced with challenges as the future is ours
D.we shouldn’t easily pay a little hard work in growing up
小题4:The purpose of the passage is to tell readers____________.
A.life is full of hardships
