    One day in my class, the children were busy preparing for the coming concert. Suddenly Patty came up to me and said, “Every year I-g-g-g-get to be a quiet student. The other kids are always in a p-p-p-play or something. This year, I w-w-want to recite a p-p-p-poem myself!”

    Watching her eager eyes, I had no way to refuse her request. So I had to promise her that she would have a “reciting” part. That promise proved to be very difficult to keep. None of my books had any proper poems for her. So I had to spend most of the night writing a poem for her. It was not excellent, but it was enough to cope with Patty’s speech problem.

    From then on, Patty spent a lot of time practicing the reciting every day. With my help, she made great progress. However, an unexpected thing happened when the concert was about to start. The MC（报幕员）came to me with anger, waving his printed program. “There has been a mistake! You have listed Patty for a recitation. That girl can’t even say her own name without stuttering.” Because there was not enough time for explanations, I said to him angrily, “We know what we are doing.”

    The concert was going very well. When it was time for Patty’s recitation, the MC again said that Patty would embarrass everyone. Losing patience, I shouted to him loudly, “Patty will do her part. You do yours. Just introduce her number.”

    The curtain parted to show Patty, excited and confident. In perfect control, Patty uttered each syllable clearly helped by my gestures. At last, she made her bow, with tears in her eyes.

    The curtain closed. At first silence held the audience, then the silence gave way to warm and lasting applause. Patty threw her arms around me and said to me excitedly, “We d-d-d-did it!”

    1. What was the challenge for Patty to prepare for the concert?

    A. She hadn’t enough time to practice.

    B. She wasn’t popular with the students in her class.

    C. She couldn’t recite words clearly owing to stuttering.

    D. There weren’t proper poems for her at all.

    2.The author yelled at the MC loudly because_____.

    A. he made a mistake about the printed program

    B. he showed no respect for the author

    C. he didn’t list Patty for a recitation

    D. he was unwilling to include Patty in the performing list

    3.From the passage we can learn that_____.

    A. where there is a will, there is a way

    B. experience is the mother of wisdom

    C. strike while the iron is hot

    D. the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak

    阅读下面的短文，请根据短文后的要求答题。

    Rock climbing requires not only physical strength, but also complete mental concentration. So it is not an easy sport. But this may not be true for 20-year-old Sasha diGuilian. This fearless girl who has been dominating the sport ever since she entered this field is just getting warmed up.

    The youngster who is also studying for a creative writing degree at Columbia University says that she began climbing even before she could walk. As a baby, she constantly escaped from her bed and led her friends to the nearest rocks or hills. Then at the age of seven she attended brother’s birthday party at a local rock climbing gym and found her gift for it.

    Soon after, she joined the local center in her hometown of Alexandria, Virginia and began climbing— first once a week, then twice and soon, almost every day. At the age of nine, she won her first climbing competition by participating in an event that she hadn’t even been aware of, until she went to the gym for her normal climbing routine. Her competitive nature and love for the sport immediately reached the peak and she began training seriously, but this time outside the gym—climbing real mountains.

    As a youngster, she dominated the Junior Continental Championships from 2004 to 2010. Then she went on to catch the Pan American Championship and the US National Championship as soon as she was old enough. And in 2011, at just 18 years old, she was crowned(加冕)Female Overall World Champion in Arco, Italy at her first attempt.

    Sasha diGuilian is also the youngest woman who has completed the 5.14d graded climb in which climbers must climb rocks that are vertical. The 5.14d graded climb is regarded as the most difficult climb and it is something that even the most experienced climbers are a little afraid to take on, because a small slip could result in a severe injury or even death.

    1.What does the underlined word “dominating” (Paragraph 1) mean?(1 word)

    2.Where and when did Sasha diGuilian find she had the talent for rock climbing? (No more than 12 words)

    3.What made Sasha diGuilian begin training seriously to climb real mountains? (No more than 10 words)

    4.Why is the 5.14d graded climb considered the most difficult climb? (No more than 7 words)

    5. Please explain how you are inspired by Sasha diGuilian.(No more than25 words)

    Stop Eating Yourself Stupid

    We all know that poor nutrition can lead to bad health and even weight gain.1.A recent study has found that what you eat could very likely play a role in how smart you are.

    According to the study, rats fed a high-fat diet for 10 days showed signs of weakness and even had trouble finding treats that were waiting for them.2.Actually high-fat diet could weaken our intelligence--- but so can a calorie-restricted diet. The trick appears to lie in finding a nice balance.

    Here are ways to achieve that happy balance and make you smarter through diet, exercise and improving your brain power.

    3. Aim to get this amount of calories each day. If you need to drop a few pounds, take away the number you get by 400; consume that number of calories each day until you drop the weight.

    Eat the right foods in addition to getting the right amount of calories. Aim for healthy foods that include good amounts of protein, fiber, fruits and vegetables, healthy whole grains, healthy fats and plenty of water! Well! 4. Read a book. Try a new recipe. Do some puzzles. These are all good ways to help increase your smarts.

    5.Aim for at least three 30-minutes sessions a week. I like simple exercises such as walking, but anything that raises the heart rate is good. You may be fond of music too. Combine them! Some people like to listen to classical music such as Bach or Mozart, but rock music lovers will be happy to learn that this genre can help make you smarter as well.

    A. Exercise regularly with happy mind forever.

    B. Your health depends on your exercise plan.

    C. Don’t forget to exercise your mind while doing so.

    D. Now add “lack of intelligence” to the list.

    E. You may be puzzled whether it has something with us.

    F. Remember: All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

    G. Figure out how many calories you need to maintain your weight.

    Not long ago, people thought babies were not able to learn things until they were five or six months old. Yet doctors in the United States say babies begin learning on their first day of life.

    Scientists note that babies are strongly influenced1 by their environment. They say a baby will smile if his mother does something the baby likes. A baby learns to get the best care by smiling to please his mother or other caregivers. This is how babies learn to connect and communicate with other human beings.

    A study shows how mothers can influence social development and language skills in their children.

    Researchers studied the children from the age of one month to three years. The researchers tried to measure the sensitivity2 of the mothers. The women were considered sensitive if they supported their children's activities and did not get involved unnecessarily. They tested the children for thinking and language development when they were three years old. Also, the researchers observed the women for signs of depression.

    The children of depressed3 women did not do as well in tests as the children of women who did not suffer from depression. The children of depressed women did poorly in tests of language skills and understanding what they hear.

    1. influence: to affect the way people behave or think

    2. sensitivity: the ability to understand other people's feelings

    3. depressed: very sad and without hope

    These children also were less cooperative and had more problems dealing with other people. The researchers noted that the sensitivity of the mothers was important to the intelligence development of their children. Children did better when their mothers were caring, even when they suffered from depression.

    1.When do babies begin learning according to doctors in the United States? (不多于5个单词)

    2.Why do babies smile to please their mothers or other caregivers? (不多于6个单词)

    3.In what tests did the children of depressed women do poorly? (不多于 7个单词)

    4.What kind of mothers can help children have a better development? (不多于 2个单词)
