    Is early childhood education really necessary? Early childhood education primarily focuses on learning through playing to develop the child’s physical, sensory, communicational and social development．Early childhood education has become a concern of the government, who pushes poor children to be formally trained before they are old enough for Kindergarten．
    There are good reasons for the government to push early childhood education．Studies have shown that orphaned children who did not receive good care and education become developmentally delayed causing failure in school, and even in life．Further studies show that poor children who take part in Head Start programs are more prepared for school, less likely to end up in   
    Special Education classes, and are less likely to receive public help or go to jail．
    There are also negative parts to putting a child in formal education programs too early．Time Magazine online explains that “the younger the child the less his chances of catching up with first-grade work．” I have personally witnessed many children of my generation who went to Head Start programs become frustrated and bored with school before they finished high school．Yet parents have been sure that the earlier the child starts school, the better off he or she is, so they push to start children earlier．
    Actually while early formal education of poor children does show great gains in the early elementary years, studies also show that this head start is really a “false start”, as the gains are lost in middle and high school years．It seems that environment is a bigger factor on life’s success than early education．Head Start programs have not achieved its original goal in closing the achievement gap in poor and middle school children．Perhaps it is time to find other ways to close that gap．
    71．The purpose of the government valuing the early childhood education is ________．
    A．to develop the children’s communication
    A．to give orphaned children good care and education
    C．to get the children prepared for the kindergarten
    D．to train the children formally and regularly
    72．According to the studies, which of the following is True?
    A．Children with good early education may have a rich life．
    B．The orphaned children are usually unhappy in their life．
    C．Children without early education can do well at school．
    D．Head Start programs are helpful to the poor children．
    73．“the younger the child the less his chances of catching up with first-grade work．” suggests that _________．
    A．the early childhood education is helpless to the child’s grade
    B．it is good for the young children to receive early education
    C．the early education can help the children follow the grade
    D．the younger the children are, the cleverer they will be
    74 The author’s attitude toward the early childhood education is _________．
    A．puzzling       B．objective      C．indifferent    D．approving
    75．The main idea of the last passage is that __________．
    A．the early childhood education is very necessary
    B．Head Start programs have helped the children a lot
    C．environment is the most important to life’s success
    D．better ways should be found to help the poor children

    第二节任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）
    请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。
    注意：每空格1个单词。
    When we think about education and language learning, we are most likely to think of books. Although there are lots of language learning methods, many people still prefer to learn only by using books. So what are the advantages of learning a language from a book?
    Here are its advantages: firstly, you can take language books wherever you go conveniently and you can use them whenever you want. Secondly, they are easy to follow because the courses in them are usually planned for you in strict order starting from the most basic concepts to the more complex. Thirdly, if you are unsure of something, you can continue to work on it as quickly as you like. Lastly, books are likely to have a lot of vocabulary and a lot of topics so you will get great value out of a book with lots of materials in it.
    Using books to study a language has disadvantages, too. All textbooks and dictionaries usually include some kind of pronunciation guide. These are helpful when there is no other way to learn, but this can't help you practice your pronunciation. With an audio method, you can compare your pronunciation to that of a native speaker. Besides, some words are spoken faster in one sentence or slower in another, so the pronunciation of a word may change according to the emotion or feeling you want to convey. Also, books can’t actually help you hear the language with its unique rhythms spoken by native speakers. With an audio language learning method, you will be able to hear and understand the language better.
    Therefore, if you can supplemental（补充）your book with some other language tools, such as audio tapes, internet radio or resources such as music or television, you will have a much better chance of understanding the books' pronunciation guide and using it to get a good grasp of the spoken language.
    Title: One of the Language Learning 81.__________— Using Books
    Themes
    		To get a good grasp of the spoken language, we need to combine language learning books with an audio component
    82.__________
    		*It’s 83. __________ and easy to take books with you. You can use them at anytime.
    *It’s easy to 84. __________ books because they are arranged with the most basic information at the start to the more complicated concepts later on.

    More teachers are starting off the school year with letters to parents and students to introduce themselves and set a tone (基调) for the year．The letters are a good way to start positive communication with parents, several teachers told Education World．
    “I think it’s professional (专业的)，”said Dorothy Peselli, an English teacher at Sparta High School in Sparta, New Jersay, Peselli, who gives out the letters the first day of school, told Education World．“It gives parents an image of you as a professional．If you start communication off in a positive manner, you will have the parents on your side when you need them．”
    In her letter to parents, Peselli encourages them to call or e-mail her with specific concerns about their children．“I want to work as a team to make sure that your child becomes an independent lifelong learner,” Peselli wrote to parents last September．She also telephones the parents of all her students at the beginning of the year．

    Parents should stop blaming themselves because there’s not a lot they can do about it. I mean the teenager problem. Whatever you do or however you choose to deal with it, at certain times a wonderful, reasonable and helpful child will turn into a terrible animal.
    I’ve seen friends deal with it in all kinds of different ways. One strict mother insisted that her son, right from a child, should stand up whenever anyone entered the room, open doors and shake hands like a gentleman. I saw him last week when I called round. Sprawling himself on the sofa in full length, he made no attempt to turn off the loud TV he was watching as I walked in, and his greeting was no more than a quick glance at me. His mother was ashamed. “I don’t know what to do with him these days,” she said. “He’s forgotten all the manners we taught him.”
    He hasn’t forgotten them. He’s just decided that he’s not going to use them. She confessed(坦白) that she would like to come up behind him and throw him down from the sofa onto the floor.
    Another good friend of mine let her two daughters climb all over the furniture, reach across the table, stare at me and say, “I don’t like your dress; it’s ugly.” One of the daughters has recently been driven out of school. The other has left home.
    “Where did we go wrong?” her parents are now very sad. Probably nowhere much. At least, no more than the rest of that unfortunate race, parents.
    71. This text is most probably written by ______.
    A. A specialist in teenager studies.      B. a headmaster of a middle school
    C. a parent with teenage children       D. a doctor for mental health problems
    72. The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to ______.
    A. the change from good to bad that’s seen in a child
    B. the way that parents often blame themselves
    C. the opinion that a child has of his parents
    D. the advice that parents want their children to follow
    73. The boy on the sofa would most probably be described as ______.
    A. lazy       B. quiet       C. unusual       D. rude
    74. From the second example we can infer that the parents of the two daughters ______.
    A. pay no attention to them          B. are too busy to look after them
    C. have come to hate them           D. feel helpless to do much about them
    75. What is the author’s opinion about the sudden change in teenage children?
    A. Parents have no choice but to try to accept it.
    B. Parents should pay still more attention to the change.
    C. Parents should work more closely with school teachers.
    D. Parents are a fault for the change in their children.

    Thousands of people in the world are a hundred years old－or more and certain parts of the world are famous for the long lives of their inhabitants: the Vilacamba Valley in Ecuador, and the home of the Hunzas in the Himalayas．
    Why do so many people live to a healthy old age in certain parts of the world? What is the secret of their long lives? Three things seem to be very important: fresh air, fresh food and a simple way of life．People work near their homes in the clean mountain air instead of travelling long distances to work by bus, car or train．They do not sit all day in busy offices or factories, but work hard outdoors in the fields．They take more exercise and eat less food than people in the cities of the West．For years the Hunzas of the Himalayas did not need policemen, lawyers or doctors．There was no crime, no divorce and not much illness in their society． They were a happy, peaceful people, famous all over India for their long, healthy lives．
    Do you want to live to a hundred years old? Here are some rules for success．Firstly, choose your parents and grandparents carefully．If they lived or live to a good old age, so will you．Secondly, live in the right place．Thirdly, choose the right  kind of job．Doctors, dentists and bus-drivers die young．Farmers, priests and orchestral conductors live much longer．If you are in the wrong kind of job, you can still improve your way of life．
    An old man in the Caucasus was talking about his past life．"I was young then," he said, as he described his 87th year．His secret was: "Think young and stay young．" An old woman from Missouri, USA, gave this advice, "Drink a little whisky and some warm beer every day．" An English lady just said, "Take a cold bath every morning．" The shortest, simplest piece of advice came from Mr．Jim Chapman, aged 103．"Just keep breathing," he told reporters．

    第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每题2分，满分40分）
    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
    A
    The luxury of eating an apple on Mars could cost as much as US $22,000. That's because it costs about US $120,000 to launch a kilogram of anything into deep space. So getting enough food into orbit is a big problem facing astronauts on a trip to Mars.
    After NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) has no current plans to send astronauts to Mars, related research is being carried out—including the production of food. Astronauts on the international Space Station usually eat primarily freeze-dried food to which they add water. However, the weight of the packaging—almost as much as the food inside—costs a lot of money. The biggest problem of all is a psychological one.
    Scientists believe that astronauts will suffer without the variety offered by fresh vegetables. The answer is to grow at least some of the food. On a short trip it is imagined that astronauts will eat vegetables such as lettuce, spinach and carrots grown in a refrigerator-sized unit known as a "salad machine". On longer journeys they will actually grow vegetables in greenhouses on Mars. Martian astronauts will eat a vegetarian diet since it will not be practical to raise animals. To make up for the lack of meat, recipes have been created to add as much variety to the diet as possible, using only a basic number of products. It uses heat and mechanical force to transform soybeans into meat and cheese substitutes（代替品）. The prized result of this research is a purely vegetable-based pizza with meat and cheese substitutes .
    41. What is the best title for this story?
    A. Space Food                                          B. Astronauts' Problem
    C. The Packaging of Space Food          D. Mars Rover-Spirit
    42. What is the main problem with the diet of astronauts on the international Space Station now?
    A. The packaging is too expensive.
    B. Only fresh vegetables are offered.
    C. Too much water is needed for dried food.
    D. There are not enough choices of food.
    43. What is the "salad machine" in the spaceship for?
    A. It stores vegetables.                 B. It grows vegetables.
    C. It cooks green salad.                D. It mixes green salad.
    44. From the passage we know that the diet plan for Martian astronauts is short of     .
    A. Vegetables.               B. A special kind of Pizza.            C. Meat.         D. Soybeans
