Dear All，
Happy New Year! A list of important dates for this term is attached to this letter．
Interviews for our April and September Primary One classes will take place on Tuesday and Wednesday，18th&19th January．Now is the time to apply for admission to Peak School．
Children are expected to weal their uniforms this term．As is usual at this time of the year，mornings at the school are quite cold and l would suggest children wear their sweaters to school．As the temperature goes up during the day，children

tend to take off their outer clothes，so it is important that all sweatshirts are labeled(贴有标签)．
I have received a few requests from parents asking if their children can wear summer uniforms this term．I am of the view that all children in the school should follow the school policy and be dressed in the appropriate uniforms．In the longer term，a number of US at school have questioned the need to have a winter and summer uniform．Perhaps．with careful consideration，we can develop a uniform that will serve children for the whole academic year．
As the foggy(多雾)mornings start to appear，a number of parents have raised concerns over the safety of those children who walk to school． Our dark green uniforms are not particularly visible to motorists．Hopefully, the “Uniform Committee” to be set up this term will deal with this particular issue．I will keep parents informed of the channels through which views may be expressed in future newsletters．
We still have a “No Hat，No Play” rule on the playground，so children need to ensure that they have their sunhats in school at all times．
Yours sincerely，
P D Tunesi
Principal

Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side.
Most people know this joke. But recently, some people have been much more worried about how the grizzly bear and mountain lion can cross the road.
“Millions of animals die each year on U.S. roads,” the Federal Highway Administration reports. In fact, only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat, exist in the U.S. today. The main reason? Roadkill.
“Eco-passages” may help animals cross the road without being hit by cars. They are paths both over and under roads. “These eco-passages can be extremely useful, so that wildlife can avoid road accidents,” said Jodi Hilty of the Wildlife Protection Society.
But do animals actually use the eco-passages? The answer is yes. Paul Beier of Northern Arizona University found foot marks left by mountain lions on an eco-passage that went under a highway. This showed that the lions used the passage.
Builders of eco-passages try to make them look like a natural part of an area by planting trees on and around them. Animals seem to be catching on. Animals as different as salamanders（火蜥蜴）and grizzly bears are using the bridges and underpasses.
The next time you visit a park or drive through an area with a lot of wildlife, look around. You might see an animal overpass!
小题1: The writer uses the example of “ocelots” to show that __________.

A．wild animals have become more dangerous

B．the driving condition has improved greatly

C．an increasing number of animals are killed in road accidents

D．the measure for protecting wildlife fails to work

小题2:From the story, we know an eco-passage is __________.

A．an underground path for cars

B．a fence built for the safety of the area

C．a bridge for animals to get over a river

D．a path for animals to cross the road

小题3: When the writer says that “animals seem to be catching on” (Para. 6), he means __________.

A．animals begin to realize the dangers on the road

B．animals are crossing the road in groups

C．animals are increasing in number

D．animals begin to learn to use eco-passages

小题4: The writer asks visitors and drivers to look around when traveling because __________.

A．wild animals may attack cars	B．they may see wild animals on eco-passages
C．they may see wild animals in the park	D．wild animals may jam the road

小题5: The best title for the passage is __________.

A．Special bridges help animals cross the road

B．Endangered animals increase because of roadkill

C．Animals fail to cross the road

D．Take steps to protect animals in danger

One in five American families will move every year. Moving is one of the most stress-producing events a family has to go through. Experts say it can be harder for children. How do you help your child adjust to the changes?
The Ricardos moved from their old house to a new home. Same family, same dog-but it was harder for 9-year-old Elena. She hated the room, the house and everything. She hated leaving her friends the most.
“ I was so emotional. I mean, saying goodbye to all my friends…..my very close friends, who was my neighbor, made me so sad,” says Elena.
For some children, the emotional stress of moving is not much more different from the emotions when someone has died.
“There’s that sense that, ‘I’ve lost my friends, my friends, my base, my school, my teachers-everything I knew that made me feel safe is all gone now. I have to start over,” says Dr. Tim Jordan.
Starting over is exactly Dr. Tim Jordan’s advice. Make new friends, enter the new school and enter the new neighborhood. And here are some other pieces of advice.
● Explain clearly to the children why the move is necessary.
● Familiarize(使熟悉) the children as much as possible with the new area with maps, photographs or the daily newspaper.
● After the move, got the children to join in activities in the place.
● Help the children keep in touch with friends from the neighborhood before through telephone, letters, e-mail, and personal visits.
小题1:
Which of the following is useful to reduce the children’s stress before the move?

A．Let doctors give children some advice.

B．Try letting children accept the fact of moving.

C．Let children keep in touch with their former friends.

D．Copy the new environment in the old home.

小题2:
What can we know from the passage?

A．Most American children can get used to the changes in moving.

B．Dr. Tim Jordan lost his family, friends, teachers after moving.

C．The emotional stress of moving is the same in some way as that of knowing someone’s death.

D．the Ricardos lost their dogs after moving to their new house.

小题3:
The passage mainly wants to _____

A．tell parents the reasons of moving.	B．explain the reasons of stress.
C．give parents some advice on moving.	D．teach parents how to move.

科目：高中英语 来源：不详 题型：阅读理解

Three years ago I listened to a lecture on cognition (认知) that changed the way I think about intelligence. There are two types of cognition. The first is normal cognition: the ability to regain knowledge from memory. The second type of cognition is metacognition: the ability to know whether or not you know.
Does this affect intelligence? In traditional education, intelligence is measured by cognitive ability. Some people can easily produce everything they know on a test. But others are awarded with poor grades and considered inferior. But does this inability make them any less intelligent? If the question came up on a task, they could refer to a book or a quick Google search. In reality they’re just as effective as the people that ace a test. They just can’t prove it as easily.
Metacognition is more important to success than cognition. A person with poor cognitive ability, but great metacognitive ability might do poorly in school, but when faced with a challenge, they understand their abilities and take the best course of action. For example, when faced with a question, a person with strong metacognitive

ability will deal with it like this. If he knows the answer, but can’t come up with it, he can always do a bit of research. If he knows for sure that he doesn’t know, then he can start educating himself. Because he’s aware of his ignorance, he doesn’t act with foolish confidence. These people might not seem intelligent at first glance, but because they know what they know, they make better decisions and learn the most important things.
However, people with great cognitive ability but poor metacognitive ability may be considered excellent at a young age for acing every test and getting great SAT scores. Unfortunately, they’ve been ruined by poor metacognition: they think they know everything but they really don’t. They are overconfident, fail to learn from mistakes, and don’t understand the slight differences of personal relationships, showing disregard for persons with lower cognitive ability. They may make the worst decisions.
The most important mental power is the ability to know what you don’t know. The recognition of a fault is the first step to improvement. Don’t try to hide a lack of knowledge. For intelligent people this is the toughest lesson to learn.
小题1:People with great cognitive ability tend to _________.

A．do well in tests	B．be considered inferior
C．be more effective than others	D．do research when faced with a task

小题2:The underlined phrase “take the best course of action” probably means _________.

A．starting educating himself	B．taking action during the course
C．making the right decision	D．coming up with many ideas

小题3:People with poor metacognition may not succeed because they_________.

A．lack basic moral values	B．have improper self-evaluation
C．fail to communicate with others	D．show little respect for others

小题4:The author probably supports the idea that _________.

A．intelligence is measured by cognitive ability

B．cognition is the most important mental power

C．the toughest lesson is to distinguish the two types of cognition

D．the awareness of one’s ignorance contributes to one’s improvement

With eco-tourism on the rise, eco-hotels are fast becoming the darling of the travel industry. These days, however, staying at an eco-hotel doesn’t necessarily mean vacationing in a tree house in the Costa Rican jungle, although that is certainly a choice.
The majority of eco-hotels fall into one of several categories: hotels and resorts that conserve ecologically important habitats; “green” hotels that reduce, recycle, minimize waste, and protect water; sustainable hotels that harvest food from gardens on the hotel property or get part or all of their power from renewable energy; hotels that encourage community involvement such as guests taking part in trail clearing; and hotels that offer some form of environmental education to their guests.
As such, eco-hotels are a various group. Stylish urban hotels like the Willard Inter-Continental Washington focus on energy conservation whereas the Rosario Resort & Spa on Orcas Island in Washington State offers a wildly popular “green” vacation package where guests can “take a hike, clear a trail”.
No matter what you call them, eco-hotel, eco-lodge, eco-resort, or green hotel, they’re all part of the “greening” of the tourism industry.
Part of what drives this greening of the hotel industry is no doubt competition. Going green is yet another way to distinguish a hotel from the mass of other excellent hotels that consumers have to choose from. But for many hotels, it’s also part of their philosophy. With the concept of “going green” firmly rooted in consumers’ minds, eco-hotels have taken it to the next level, and whether or not money is the driving factor behind the greening of the hotel industry doesn’t matter so much as it’s good for the planet.
小题1:The underlined part in the first paragraph means _______.

A．lovers like staying at an eco-hotel when traveling

B．eco-hotels are very popular in the travel industry

C．eco-hotels are where young people love to live

D．romantic love stories often happen in eco-hotels

小题2: According to the passage, which of the following can match the idea of eco-hotel?

A．It uses renewable energy.

B．It is comfortable and fashionable.

C．It has walls of glass.

D．It is home to endangered species.

小题3: From the passage, we know the Rosario Resort & Spa is a kind of hotel that _______.

A．protects important habitats

B．harvests food from its own garden

C．has courses on the environment for its guests

D．encourages its guests to participate in its greening activities

小题4: From the last paragraph, we can learn that _______.

A．money is the driving force behind eco-hotels

B．eco-hotels have no advantages in competing for guests

C．eco-hotels teach their guests the philosophy of eco-hotels

D．the hotel industry cares more about money than the environment

小题5: People who choose to stay at eco-hotels _______.

A．love to take a hike

B．have environmental awareness

C．want to live comfortably

D．enjoy the green atmosphere
