I saw the crossing of twisting, turning streets 2 to the square in the center of the village. "See, my dear," Father said gently. "There is more than one way to the square. Life is like that. If you can't get where you want to go by one road, try 3."
Now I understood why I was there. Earlier that day I had begged Mother to do something about the 4 lunches that were served at school. But she 5 because she could not believe the lunches were so bad. When I turned to Father for help, he would not 6. Instead, he brought me to this high tower to give me a lesson. By the time we reached home, I had a(n) 7.
At school the next day, I secretly 8 my lunch soup into a bottle and brought it home. Then I talked the cook into serving it to Mother at dinner. The plan worked 9. She swallowed one spoonful, "The cook must have gone mad!" Having known what I had done, Mother stated firmly that she would 10 the matter of lunches at school the next day!
In the years that followed I often remembered what Father told me. And on the way to my first small success I found the road 11.

We worked hurriedly and the showing took place as 17. Some coats had no sleeves; others had only one. Many of our clothes were only 18 made of heavy cotton cloth. But on these we pinned sketches and pieces of material. In this way we were able to show what colors and textures (结构) the clothes would have when they were finished. It was our 19 showing that caught the attention of the public, and 20 for the clothes poured in.
Father's wise words had guided me again. There is always more than one way to the square.

【题目】根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Homework is a major part of going to school: It's your teachers' way of evaluating(评价) how much you understand of what's going on in class. Luckily, you can do a few things to make homework less work.
Be sure you understand the homework.
Write your homework down in your notebook or day planner if you need to. It's much easier to take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class than to struggle to remember later that night!
Use any extra time in school.
Many schools have study halls that are specifically designed to allow students to study. It's tempting (诱惑) to hang out with friends during study periods or unstructured (松散的) time.
Take a break.
So take some breaks while doing your homework. Sitting for too long without stretching or relaxing will make you less productive than if you stop every so often. Taking a 15-minute break every hour is a good idea for most people.
If you don't finish your homework during school, think about how much you have left and what else is going on that day, and then budget your time. Most high-school students have between 1 and 3 hours of homework a night. If it's a heavy homework day and it seems like you've got an assignment in every subject but gym and lunch, you'll need to devote more time to homework. It's a good idea to come up with some kind of homework schedule, especially if you are involved in sports or activities or have an after-school job.
A. Pace yourself.
B. Settle down to do homework.
C. And it helps digest important concepts (概念).
D. Most people's attention spans (注意力持续时间) aren't very long.
E. Don't be afraid to ask questions about what's expected.
F. Once your homework is done, you can check over it if you have extra time.
G. But the more work you can get done in school, the less you'll have to do that night.

【题目】There are plenty of things you can feel positive knowing about Garfield—the cat who loves lasagna, hates Mondays and adores a teddy bear named Pooky. But last week, without warning, there rose a strange and sudden debate around a question about the famous cat that even creator Jim Davis needed to weigh in on: Is Garfield a boy, a girl, or no gender(性别)at all?
The argument appears to have begun when writer Virgil Texas came across a 2014 Mental Floss interview with Davis where he described his tabby creation Garfield as “not really male or female or any particular race or nationality, young or old.”
In response to the quote(引用),Virgil wrote on Twitter: “FACT:Garfield has no gender. This. Is. Definite.” So sure was he of Garfield‘s true gender status that Virgil even took it upon himself to update the Garfield character Wikipedia page with the information。
But it was quickly clear that not everyone agreed with Virgil‘s edits, and thus began a war over the Wikipedia entry edits. Some mentioned that Garfield is male. Others wrote that it shouldn’t matter at all whether Garfield is male or female. Washington Post reported that the battle took place over 60 hours and eventually ended when Wikipedia shut things down by locking the page.
It was a statement that soon appeared to have been made in hurry as Jim Davis indeed soon joined the debate, shutting everything down in one line to Washington Post: “Garfield is male.” The 71-year-old cartoonist also pointed out that Garfield has a girlfriend, Arlene, and claimed that his 2014 quotes had been “taken out of context”. “I’ve always said that I wanted to work with animals because they’re not regarded as being any particular gender, race, age or ethnicity,” he said. “In that sense, the humor could be enjoyed by a broader group.”
【1】What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. An argument about the gender of Garfield.
B. The interview between Jim Davis and Virgil Texas.
C. An update of Wikipedia entry edits about Garfield.
D. The popularity of the famous cartoon character Garfield.
【2】What does the underlined phrase “weigh in on” probably mean?
A. Agree with. B. Join in.
C. Put forward. D. Care about.
【3】The debate online upon the gender of Garfield was ended up by ______.
A. writer Virgil Texas B. Wikipedia
C. Washington Post D. creator Jim Davis
【4】What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Jim Davis’ 2014 quotes had been cut out.
B. Garfield becomes more famous than before.
C. Washington Post shut everything down in one line about Garfield.
D. The creation of Garfield is aimed at entertainment rather than anything else.

【题目】根据短文内容的理解,选择正确答案。
Tell a story and tell it well, and you may open wide the eyes of a child, open up lines of communication in a business, or even open people's mind to another culture or race.
People in many places are digging up the old folk stories and the messages in them. For example, most American storytellers get their tales from a wide variety of sources, cultures, and times. They regard storytelling not only as a useful tool in child education, but also as a meaningful activity that helps adults understand themselves as well as those whose culture may be very different from their own.
"Most local stories are based on a larger theme," American storyteller Opalanga Pugh says, "Cinderella, or the central idea of a good child protected by her goodness, appears in various forms in almost every culture of the world."
Working with students in schools, Pugh helps them understand their own cultures and the general messages of the stories. She works with prisoners too, helping them knowing who they are by telling stories that her listeners can write, direct, and act in their own lives. If they don't like the story they are living, they can rewrite the story. Pugh also works to help open up lines of communication between managers and workers. "For every advance in business," she says, "there is a greater need for communication". Storytelling can have a great effect on either side of the manager-worker relationship, she says.
Pugh spent several years in Nigeria, where she learned how closely storytelling was linked to the everyday life of the people there. "The benefits of storytelling are found everywhere," she says.
"I learned how people used stories to spread their culture," she says, "What I do is to focus on the value of the stories that people can translate into their own daily world of affairs. We are all storytellers. We all have a story to tell. We tell everybody's story."
(1)What do we learn about American storyteller from Paragraph 2?
A.They share the same way of storytelling.
B.They prefer to tell the stories from other cultures.
C.They learn their stories from the American natives.
D.They find storytelling useful for both children and adults.
(2)The underlined sentence (Paragraph 4) suggests that prisoners can _____.
A.start a new life
B.settle down in another place
C.direct films
D.become good actors
(3)Pugh has practiced storytelling with _____ groups of people.
A.2
B.3
C.4
D.5

Dear Tom,
I’m glad to accept your last letter. Thanks for your concern about the heavy haze affecting normal teaching activities in our school. We have actual taken several practical measures to handle.
To begin with, attach great importance to the health of the young, our government has fixed a set of equipments to provide fresh air in our school, that can basically solve the problem. In addition to, parents donate lots of air purifiers. However, inside the buildings of our school, we did have fresh and refined air. Besides these, our school avoids outdoor activities when haze attacks.
I do believe a disturbing issue will be solved pretty soon in China.
Yours,
Li Hua

【题目】Young people in the United States do not have a strong understanding of the world and their place in it.
Two US-based groups, the Council on Foreign Relations and the National Geographic Society, conducted an online survey last year. They wanted to know what young people in American colleges knew about geography, U.S. foreign policy, recent international events, and economics.
The survey was given to over 1,200 Americans between the ages of 18 and 26 years. All of them presently attending, or having previously graduated from, a 2- or 4-year college or university.
The average test score, out of 75 total possible answers, was 55 percent. The study identifies a few important problems. For example, only 30 percent knew that the only part of the U.S. government that can declare war is Congress. Only 60% of those taking the survey could identify Brazil on a world map.
Part of the problem, argue the organizers of the survey, is the Internet. They say it is becoming harder to find high-quality information about world events amongst all the fake news and trivia which swamp the web. Forty-three percent of those questioned said they read about the news on Facebook.
Another problem is that most college courses do not require students to learn about international issues. If such information is not required, Richard Haass from the Council on Foreign Relations said, then the United States could have leaders like Gary Johnson. He was a recent presidential candidate who did not know about the Syrian city of Aleppo when a reporter asked him about it.
The survey results were not all bad. The young people also demonstrated a good understanding of climate change and renewable energy. And the majority of them said that international issues were becoming more important to them.
Haass says these findings suggest the need to find ways to get good information to students, both in school and online. To help, the Council on Foreign Relations is creating a new program called CFR Campus, designed to help build knowledge about global issues.
【1】What do we know about the survey?
A. The participants were all recent university graduates.
B. It was an online survey conducted by two US universities.
C. It was given to over 1,200 American people aged from 18 to 26.
D. It aimed to find out what the young people know about America.
【2】What’s one reason survey organizers give for young people’s lack of knowledge?
A. The poor quality of the US university system.
B. Young people’s unwillingness to travel abroad.
C. The sources from which they get their information.
D. Their lack of interest in knowing more about the world.
【3】What topic did the young Americans understand best according to the survey?
A. Government organizations. B. Geographic information.
C. Foreign relations. D. Environmental matters.
【4】In which column of a newspaper could we find this article?
A. Economics. B. Education.
C. National Politics. D. Entertainment.
