      Maybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not
necessary so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here's how:
      1. Plan your time carefully. When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you
have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating,
sleeping, dressing, etc. then decide a good, regular time for studying. Don't forget to set aside enough
time for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize
what is happening to your time.
      2. Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which
may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios,
or television! When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.
      3. Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the
teachers say. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what
the teacher says.
      4. Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points
that your teacher mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read
that material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
      5. Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about
a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world won't end if you don't pass a test, so
don't be overly worried.
      There are other methods that might help you with your studying. You will probably discover many others
after you have tried these.

     Mead Vale Community Primary School opened in new buildings and spacious grounds in September 1977,
within a fairly small mature estate community. Times have changed, and we now cover a far greater area and
children travel to the school from as far a field as Benwell. Parents now have the choice of selecting schools
for their children's education and many parents choose Mead Vale.
     We are a Community Primary School administered by the School Governing Board which is responsible to
the North Somerset Council Education Board. Present school roll is around 415 with space for 420 in total. We
are delighted that we were awarded "Beacon Status" in 2002 and are pleased to share our expertise with other
schools. Last year we had visits from as far away as South Africa and Spain. We are a primary school covering
ages 4-11 and on transfer from here parents usually choose Word Comprehensive, Priory Comprehensive or
Wyvern Comprehensive. We feel the advantage of a Primary School is the continuity of education from 4-11
and the greatly reduced trauma involved in moving schools from Infant to Junior or First to Middle at the age
of 7. We are convinced of the benefit of this and deliberately structure the school in phases at four levels:
     Foundation: the reception year-a separate special early years curriculum;
     Years l & 2: the first two years of the national curriculum- previously infants;
     Years 3 & 4: the third and fourth year of the national curriculum-previously lower juniors;
     Years 5 & 6: the fifth and sixth years of the national curriculum-previously upper juniors.
     In each phase the children stay with the same teacher. It is likely that they will have only 4 different class
teachers during their seven years with us.
1. According to the author, ____.
A. he will open a new school covering a far greater area
B. he is proud of the achievements the school has gained
C. he will let the children have four teachers each year
D. he thinks these seven years will reduce trauma involved in the transfer
2. What does the underlined word "phase" mean in the last paragraph?
A. Year.
B. Term.
C. Part.
D. Stage.
3. The relationship among the following is ____.
    Mead Vale-M; Community Primary School-C; the School Governing Board-S;
    North Somerset Council Education Board- N; UK-U
A. U-N-C-S-M
B. U-N-S-C-M
C. N-U-C-S-M
D. N-U-S-C-M
4. What shall a primary school do with the education according to the passage?
A. Open in new buildings and spacious grounds; get a "Beacon Status" award.
B. Have a "Beacon Status" award; carry on the continuity of education.
C. Carry on the continuity of education; reduce trauma involved in transferring schools.
D. Reduce trauma involved in transferring schools; divide the students into different phases.

     Why should mankind explore space? Why should money, time and effort be spent exploring and researching
something with so few apparent benefits? Why should resources be spent on space rather than on conditions
and people on Earth? These are questions that, understandably, are very often asked.
     Perhaps the best answer lies in our genetic makeup (基因构成) as human beings. What drove our ancestors
to move from the trees into the plains, and on into all possible areas and environments? The wider the spread of
a species, the better its chance of survival. Perhaps the best reason for exploring space is this genetic tendency
to expand wherever possible.
     Nearly every successful civilization has explored, because by doing so, any dangers in surrounding areas
can be identified and prepared for. Without knowledge, we may be completely destroyed by the danger. With
knowledge, we can lessen its effects.
     Exploration also allows minerals and other potential (潜在的) resources to be found. Even if we have no
immediate need of them, they will perhaps be useful later. Resources may be more than physical possessions.
Knowledge or techniques have been acquired through exploration. The techniques may have medical applications
which can improve the length or quality of our lives. We have already benefited from other spin-offs including
improvements in earthquake prediction, in satellites for weather forecasting and in communications systems.
Even non-stick pans and mirrored sunglasses are by-products (副产品) of technological developments in the
space, the chance to save ourselves might not exist.
     While many resources are spent on what seems a small return, the exploration of space allows creative,
brave and intelligent members of our species to focus on what may serve to save us. While space may hold
many wonders and explanations of how the universe was formed or how it works, it also holds dangers. The
danger exists, but knowledge can help human being to survive. Without the ability to reach out across space,
the chance to save ourselves might not exist.
     While Earth is the only planet known to support life, surely the adaptive ability of humans would allow us
to live on other planets. It is true that the lifestyle would be different, but human life and cultures have adapted
in the past and surely could in the future.
1. Why does the author mention the questions in Paragraph1?
A. To express his doubts.
B. To compare different ideas.
C. To introduce points for discussion.
D. To describe the conditions on Earth.
2. What is the reason for exploring space based on Paragraph2?
A. Humans are nature-born to do so.
B. Humans have the tendency to fight.
C. Humans may find new sources of food.
D. Humans don't like to stay in the same place.
3. The underlined word "spin-offs" in Paragraph 4 probably refers to _____.
A. survival chances
B. potential resources
C. unexpected benefits
D. physical possessions
4. What makes it possible for humans to live on other planets?
A. O ur genetic makeup.
B. Resources on the earth.
C. The adaptive ability of humans.
D. By-products in space exploration.
5. Which of the statements can best sum un the passage?
A. Space exploration has created was wonders.   
B. Space exploration provides the best value for money. 
C. Space exploration can benefit science and technology.
D. Space exploration may help us avoid potential problems on Earth.

     Education is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for the
purpose of educating them. Our purpose is to fit them for life.
     In some modern countries it has for some time been fashionable to think that hy free education for all-
whether rich or poor, clever or stupid-one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation.
But we can already see that free education for all is not enough; we find in such countries a far larger
number of people with university degrees refuse to do what they think to be "low" work, and, in fact, work
with hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries. But we have only to think a moment to
understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor.
We can live without education, but we die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took the
rubbish away from our houses, we should get terrible diseases in our towns.
     In fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that we must be educated
in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever work suited to his brains and ability and, secondly,
that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and that is very bad to be ashamed of one's work.
Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to society.
1. The writer of this passage thinks that _____.
[     ]
A. education can settle all of the world's problems
B. free education for all probably leads to a perfect world
C. free education won't help to solve social problems
D. all the social problems can't be solved by education
2. The writer wants to prove that _____.
[     ]
A. our society needs all kinds of jobs
B. our society needs free education for all
C. a farmer is more important than a professor
D. people with university degrees refuse to do what they think to be "low" work
3. According to the passage _____.
[     ]
A. work with hands is dirty and shameful
B. work with hands is low work
C. work with hands is the most important
D. we can't regard work with hands as low work
4. The purpose of education is _____.
[     ]
A. to choose a system of education
B. to prepare children mainly for their future work
C. to let everyone receive education fit for him
D. to build a perfect world
5. The passage tells us about _____.
[     ]
A. system of education
B. means of education
C. value of education
D. type of education

     A car that runs on coffee is unveiled (shown to the public for the first time) today but at between 25
and 50 times the cost of running a car on petrol, the invention won't please any motor industry accountants.
     Nicknamed the Car-puccino, it has been created using a 1988 Volkswagen Scirocco bought for £400
and it was chosen because it looked like the time-traveling DeLorean in the movie Back To The Future. The
car will be driven the 210 miles between Manchester and London powered only by roasted coffee granules
(颗粒). It has been built by a team from the BBCI science programme Bang Goes The Theory and will go
on display at the Big Bang science fair in Manchester to show how fuels other than traditional petrol can
power vehicles.
     The team calculates the Carpuccino will do three miles per kilo of ground coffee (咖啡粉)-about 56 cups
of espressos (浓咖啡) per mile. The journey will use about 70 kilos of ground coffee which, at supermarket
prices of between £13 and £26 a kilo depending on brand and quality, will cost between £910 and £l,820,
or between 25 and 50 times the £36 cost of petrol for the journey. In total, the trip will cost 11,760 espressos,
and the team will have to take 6coffee breaks' roughly every 30 to 45 miles to pour in more granules. They
will also have to stop about every 60 miles to clean out the 'coffee filters' to rid them of the soot and tar which
is also generated by the process. So despite a top speed of 60 mph, the many stops mean the going will be
slow, with the journey taking around ten hours.
     Sadly, the inventors will still have to pay duty on their coffee fuel-even though tax collectors at Her
Majesty's Revenue and Custom haven't yet worked out how much.
     Nick Watson, producer of Bang Goes The Theory, said, "Coffee, like wood or coal, has some carbon
content so you can use it as a fuel. The coffee needs to be very dry and in granules to allow the air to move
through the pile of coffee as it burns. The brand doesn't matter." He said the same technology could be used
to power a car on other unusual fuels, such as woodchips or nut shells, construction or agricultural waste.
1. Which is the right way to choose the coffee used as fuels to run the Car-puccino?
[     ]
A. It should be very dry.
B. The stronger, the better.
C. The smaller the granules are, the better.
D. It should be of a certain brand.
2. What can be inferred from the passage?
[     ]
A. All kinds of materials can be used as fuels.
B. The Car-puccino will be put into the market soon.
C. Nick Watson is the designer of the Car-puccino.
D. Much remains to be improved for the Car-puccino.
3. The Car-puccino has its disadvantages EXCEPT that _____.
[     ]
A. it makes a lot of noise
B. it runs at a very high cost
C. it has to stop to be refueled very often
D. it's not good enough for long-distance journey
4. How much ground coffee will be used to cover a distance of 126 miles in this car?
[     ]
A. About 70 kilos.
B. About 42 kilos.
C. About 32 kilos.
D. About 30 kilos.

     The New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Financial Times and some other newspapers have published
articles indicating that cyber attacks targeting Google and several other U.S. companies were from China.
Such accusations are biased (有偏见的).
     These anicles take as evidence that hackers' IP addresses could be traced back to two schools in China.
However, it is common sense that hackers can attack by contmlling computers from anywhere in the world.
This fact also explains why hackers are hard to be tracked down.
     Computers in China are easy to be controlled by hackers as the majority of Chinese Internet users lack
security awareness and adequate protection measures.
     The hackers' IP addresses could by no means vindicate (证明正确) the newspapers' accusations that the
attacks were carried out by Chinese citizens or from within China.
     The New York Times says one of the schools from which the cyber attacks were said to originate has
military support. Another school "has received financing from a high-level government science and technology
project."
     The New York Times went to great lengths to mention that "graduates of one of the school's computcr
science department are employed by the local military each year." The paper, howevcr, did not care to tell its
readers that a school in China does not need to have any special relationship with the military to have its
graduates in uniform. It is also true in the United States, where the New York Times is based.
     China's attitude toward cyber attacks has been unequivocal and has adopted laws against such crimes, as
China is one of the countries that suffer from cyber attacks.
     The U.S. government, on the other hand, takes an uncertain attitude toward cyber attacks. According to
media reports, the U.S. Homeland Security and Defense departments have both openly employed hackers.
     People with a "blackhat perspective" and knowing how to "do threat modeling" are the best choices, said
Philip Reitinger, Department of Homeland Security deputy undcrsecretary, at an information security
conference last October.
     Cyber crimes could cause immense losses to individuals, companies and nations. Effective supervision (监
督) and closer international cooperation are ways to improve cyber security. Finger pointing is not.
1. The passage is intended to tell us that _____. 
[     ]
A. IP addresses are often used as evidence to track down hackers
B. it's not necessary for schools in China to contact the military
C. the U.S. government openly employ hackers to deal with cyber attacks
D. the accusations of cyber attacks against China are unreasonable and irresponsible
2. The underlined word "unequivocal" in Paragraph 7 means _____.
[     ]
A. clear
B. negative
C. supportive
D. vague
3. We can conclude from the passage that _____.
[     ]
A. international cooperation and finger pointing are called for to ensure cyber safety
B. people skilled at doing threat modeling don't have security awareness
C. some hackers work for the U.S. Homeland Security and Defense departments
D. hackers are difficult to catch because they can cause lots of losses to people
4. The passage is organized by _____.
[     ]
A. raising questions and analyzing figures
B. making descriptions and giving explanations
C. presenting opinions and providing arguments
D. giving definitions and explaining details

       We can achieve knowledge either actively or passively. We achieve it actively by direct experience, by
testing and proving an idea, or by reasoning.
      We achieve knowledge passively by being told by someone else. Most of the learning that takes place in
the classroom and the kind that happens when we watch TV or read newspapers or magazines is passive. As
we are used to passive learning, it's not surprising that we depend on it in our everyday communication with
friends and co-workers.
      Unfortunately, passive learning has a serious problem. It makes us tend to accept what we are told even
when it is nothing but hearsay and rumor (谣言).
      Did you ever play the game Rumor? It begins when one person writes down a message but doesn't show
it to anyone. Then the person whispers it, word for word, to another person. That person, in turn, whispers it
to still another, and so on, through all the people playing the game. The last person writes down the message
word for word as he or she hears it. Then the two written statements are compared. Typically, the original
message has changed.
      That's what happens in daily life. The simple fact that people repeat a story in their own words changes
the story. Then, too, most people listen imperfectly. And many enjoy adding their own creative understanding
to a story, trying to improve on it, stamping (打上标记) it with their own personal style. Yet those who hear
it think they know.
      This process is also found among scholars and authors: A statement of opinion by one writer may be
re-stated as fact by another, who may in turn be quoted by yet another; and this process may continue, unless
it occurs to someone to question the facts on which the original writer based his opinion or to challenge the
explanation he placed upon those facts.
1. According to the passage, passive learning may occur in _____.
[     ]
A. doing a medical experiment
B. solving a math problem
C. visiting an exhibition
D. doing scientific reasoning
2. The author mentions the game Rumor to show that _____.
[     ]
A. a message may be changed when being passed on
B. a message should be delivered in different ways
C. people may have problems with their sense of hearing
D. people tend not to believe in what they know as rumor
3. What can we infer from the passage?
[     ]
A. Active learning is less important.
B. Passive learning may not be reliable.
C. Active learning occurs more frequently.
D. Passive learning is not found among scholars.

阅读理解。
     Language learning begins with listening. Children are greatly different in the amount of listening they do
before they start speaking, and later starters are often long listeners. Most children will "obey" spoken
instructions some time before they can speak, though the word "obey" is hardly accurate as a description of
the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child. Before they can speak, many children will
also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises.
     Any attempt to study the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to
considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one
or two noises sort themselves as particularly expressive as delight, pain, friendliness, and so on. But since
these can't be said to show the baby's intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms
of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by
six months they are able to add new words to their store. This selfimitation (模仿) leads on to deliberate (有意
的) imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point
at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech.
     It is a problem we need to get out teeth into. The meaning of a word depends on what a particular person
means by it in a particular situation and it is clear that what a child means by a word will change as he gains
more experience of the world. Thus the use at seven months of "mama" as a greeting for his mother cannot be
dismissed as a meaningless sound simply because he also uses it at other times for his father, his dog, or
anything else he likes. Playful and meaningless imitation of what other people say continues after the child has
begun to speak for himself, I doubt, however whether anything is gained when parents take advantage of this
ability in an attempt to teach new sounds.
1. Before children start speaking _____.
[     ]
A. they need equal amount of listening
B. they need different amounts of listening
C. they are all eager to cooperate with the adults by obeying spoken instructions
D. they can't understand and obey the adult's oral instructions
2. Children who start speaking late _____.
[     ]
A. may have problems with their listening
B. probably do not hear enough language spoken around them
C. usually pay close attention to what they hear
D. often take a long time in learning to listen properly
3. The problem of deciding at what point a baby's imitations can be considered as speech _____.
[     ]
A. is important because words have different meanings for different people
B. is not especially important because the changeover takes place gradually
C. is one that should be properly understood because the meaning of words changes with age
D. is one that should be completely ignored (忽略) because children's use of words is often meaningless
4. The speaker wants to tell us that _____.
[     ]
A. parents can never hope to teach their children new sounds
B. children no longer imitate people after they begin to speak
C. even after they have learnt to speak,children still enjoy imitating
D. children who are good at imitating learn new words more quickly
