          Speaking in public is most people's least favorite thing. The reason is that we're all afraid of making
    fools of ourselves. The more important the speech is, the more frightened we become.
         But stop biting your finger-nails. Public speaking is easy. It's just plain talking, and you talk all the time.
    Public speaking is not a "gift" like musical talent or being able to draw. Anybody who can talk can speak in
    public. Here are some tips:
         Keep it simple. Your audience is going to learn one or two from your main ideas by heart. If you can't
    express, then your speech is not focused well enough. And if you don't have a clear idea of what you want
    to say, then your audience will have no interest in your speech. Get organized. No matter how long or short
    your speech is, you'd better get your materials in order: how you're going to start, what major points you
    want to make and how you're going to close. You may often write the last sentence first. When you know
    what your aim is, you can choose any ways to get there. A strong close is powerful. The last thing you say
    is what your audience will most likely remember.
         Keep it short. The standard length of a vaudeville (杂耍) act was 12 minutes. If all those troupers (演员)
    want to sing and dance, they may make the audience bored. So make your speech short.
    1. Why does the author say "Public speaking is easy."?
    A. Because he considers that public speaking is just to say something in plain speech.
    B. Because he considers that when someone speaks in public, he doesn't bite his finger-nails.
    C. Because he considers that people do public speaking all the time.
    D. Because he considers that people are not afraid of public speaking.
    2. What does the author teach us here?
    A. Not to make fools of ourselves.
    B. How to make a speech.
    C. To talk all the time.
    D. How to have a clear idea when you speak.
    3. In the author's opinion, how can you make your audience have interest in your speech?
    A. You must make your audience learn your main ideas by heart.
    B. You must say what your audience will most likely remember.
    C. You must have a clear idea of what you want to say.
    D. You must write the last sentence of your materials first.
    4. Which of the statements is true according to the passage?
    A. The more important the speech is, the easier it is.
    B. Anybody who can talk is not frightened of public speaking.
    C. The standard length of a speech is 12 minutes.
    D. Public speaking is easy. Have a go, and you will make it.
    1-4:  ABCD

    It is time for students to sell such things as chocolate bars and greeting cards to raise money for their school, class or club. It is inevitable that they will knock on your door and you will easily hand ever your cash for overpriced items that you really do not want. That is okay, though, because there are many reasons why children should be allowed to raise money for their schools and clubs.
    Fundraising(自筹资金) is a great way to help children learn social skills. It is not easy to go up to a complete stranger and ask them for their money. They have to nicely ask for help, show the interested buyer what they have to offer and explain how it will help them in school. If someone refuses to buy an item, that child has to take the failure in stride（从容处理）, and that is a learning lesson as well.
    Students can learn how to deal with money by fundraising. Of course, it might seem safer for us to take charge of our children’s earnings from their fundraising before it is turned in to the school. However, by making them keep track of it, count it, and make sure everyone pays the right amount, they are learning an important lesson. Dealing with money is important to know about when they are older.
    Fundraising helps improve their schools. It is the child’s school. They have to learn there and grow there. Why not let them help in making it a better place? When one of our local schools lacked funding for sports, the students and parents joined hands to raise that money needed. When they succeeded, they felt they accomplished something important.
    Fundraising allows for more life experiences for the child. Most fundraising is done for individual classes and clubs. The raised money is used towards things like parties, trips. The children receive the rewards for their hard work at raising the money. Without fundraising, these field trips and special school memories would be missed.
    In a word, fundraising helps children a lot in many ways.

    第三部分 阅读理解
    A
    Diet Coke, diet Pepsi, diet pills, no-far diet, vegetable diet… We are surrounded by the word “diet” everywhere we look and listen. We have so easily been attracted by the promise and potential of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically and physically.
    Diet products significantly weaken us psychologically. On one level, we are not allowing our brain to admit that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption of fatty, high-calorie, unhealthy foods. Diet products allow us to jump over the thinking stage and go straight for the scale (秤) instead. All we have to do is to swallow or recognize the word “diet” in food labels.
    On another level, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie drink, we are telling ourselves without our awareness that we don’t have to work to get results. Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggle.
    The danger of diet products lies not only in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm that they cause. Diet foods can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are preventing our bodies from having basic nutrients. Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calorie only because the diet Industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemical that go into diet products are potentially dangerous.
    Now that we are aware of the effects that diet products have on us, it is time to seriously think about buying them. Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, and therefore prevent the psychological harm that comes from using them.
    56. From Paragraph 1, we learn that _________.
    A. diet products fail to bring out people’s potential
    B. people have difficulty in choosing diet products
    C. diet products are misleading people
    D. people are fed up with diet products
    57. One psychological effect of diet products is that people tend to _________.
    A. try out a variety of diet foods    B. hesitate before they enjoy diet foods
    C. pay attention to their own eating habits
    D. watch their weight rather than their diet
    58. In Paragraph 3, “gain comes without pain” probably means _________.
    A. losing weight is effortless    B. it costs a lot to lose weight
    C. diet products bring no pain    D. diet products are free from calories
    59. Diet products indirectly harm people physically because such products _________.
    A. are over-consumed          B. lack basic nutrients
    C. are short of chemicals        D. provide too much energy
    60. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?





           CP: Central Point   P: Point    SP: Sub-point(次要点)   C: Conclusion

                                                           The Loss of Innocence(纯真)
         Innocence is such a precious gift. It's explained as freedom from guilt or wrong doing. Just imagine
    never having to worry about anything and having a guilt-free mind. Some people wish to save this kind
    of innocence from being lost from childhood to adulthood.
         What would the world be like if innocence were never lost? One way it would benefit humanity is the
    lack of hatred (仇恨) among the world. During youth, there may be an occasional argument, even a little
    physical fight, but nothing like firing a handgun at a fellow human being. And children are blind towards
    the racial differences of others. A kid will hang out with any other kid. It is the lack of innocence and the
    ignorance we learn from adults that influence children otherwise. Another benefit is the constant desire for
    fun and adventure. With very little if any time at all for fun, the adventurous mind is lost in time with the
    responsibilities placed upon adults. If innocence were kept alive, these ambitions would never depart from our lives.
         However, other people actually hate the idea of innocence lasting for ever. They feel that the lack of
    organization and mental power of those with innocence would cause extremely destructive consequences
    to society in general. A large number of individuals would never have the urge to learn, work, and act
    upon the necessary needs for humanity to survive. Without a proper education which is usually provided
    by those who no longer live in a world of innocence, people would not have the desire to succeed, get a
    good job in life, or provide income for their families, which
    would hurt the lives of children.
        The lack of a good education and career would also harm the economy. As long as innocence is kept
    alive, no one would be terribly angry at the lack of effort people put out in the workplace, resulting in a
    strong decline(减少) in production and quality of needed goods.
         Maybe it is wrong in wanting to save innocence. It sure is a nice thought, though. Perhaps innocence
    was meant to be lost. It was god's will to make things the way they are, and there is a good purpose for
    everything. All that remains to be said about innocence is to enjoy it while it lasts.

    1. The author believes that the loss of innocence in adulthood should be______.
    A. avoided  
    B. criticized  
    C. accepted  
    D. encouraged

    2. Lifelong innocence would be beneficial to society in that__________.
    A. proper education would be provided
    B. there would be no racial discrimination
    C. there would be more happy families
    D. people would realize their childhood dreams

    3. According to the author, people with innocence can hurt the economy with their lack of____ .
    A. motivational will
    B. mental ability
    C. adventurous ambitions
    D. needed goods

    4. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?

    CP:Central Point P:Point Sp:(次要点)C:Conclusion
