【题目】Cell phones with cameras are really a popular way to capture a moment in time, but some “clever” students found another use—capturing tests as a way to cheat.
The Magnolia Independent School District in Montgomery County has added camera phones to a list of electronic devices (器具) students are banned from having at school.
School officials said the move was made as a preventative measure to stop potential (潜在的) test cheaters, since students could use the phones to snap pictures of test questions. Another concern was that students might take inappropriate (不合适的) pictures of classmates to later share or post on a website. Cell phones without cameras are allowed on campus, but must be turned off. Camera cell phones will be taken away from students if found on campus, and disciplinary action will be taken, officials said.
Some students were unhappy to hear about the ban. “I’d be lost without my phone,” said Kendall Paul, a Magnolia High School student. “All my numbers are in it. I’ve never used it to cheat and I don’t know anyone who has at our school, so I think it’s kind of stupid. ” But other students said they saw it all the time at their school.
“You would take a picture of the test and then send it to the next person taking the test,” said Melissa Sparks, a student.
“They would send the question and the answer, or just the number of the question and the answer. It’s quicker that way,” another student said.
Parents often provide their children with cell phones for use in emergencies(紧急情况)and to keep in better touch with them. “My Mom wants me to have my phone with me all the time for emergency purpose. So, it goes with me wherever I go,” Paul said.
【1】Which of the following can probably replace the words “banned from having” in the second paragraph?

A. The writer thinks every coin has two sides.
B. The writer thinks that the ban is right.

【题目】I was walking along the main street of a small seaside town in the north of England looking for somewhere to make a phone call. My car had broken down outside the town and I wanted to contact the AA Company. Low grey clouds were gathering across the sky and there was a cold damp wind blowing off the sea which nearly threw me off my feet every time I crossed one of the side streets. It had rained in the night and water was dripping from the bare trees that lined the street. I was glad that I was wearing a thick coat.
There was no sign of a call box, nor was there anyone at that early hour whom I could ask. I had thought I might find a shop open selling the Sunday papers or a milkman doing his rounds, but the town was completely dead. The only living thing I saw was a thin frightened cat outside a small restaurant.
Then suddenly I found what I was looking for. There was a small post office, and almost hidden from sight in a dark narrow street. Next to it was the town’ s only public call box, which badly needed a coat of paint. I hurried forward, but stopped in astonishment when I saw through the dirty glass that there was a man inside. He was fat, and was wearing a cheap blue plastic raincoat. I could not see his face and he did not even raise his head at the sound of my footsteps.
Carefully, I remained standing a few feet away and lit a cigarette to wait for my turn. It was when I threw the dead match on the ground that I noticed something bright red trickling from under the call box door.

【2】Which of the following words best describe the writer’s impression of the town?
A. Cold and frightening. B. Dirty and crowded.
C. Empty and dead. D. Unusual and unpleasant.
【3】The underlined word “trickling” in the last paragraph probably means ______.
A. rushing out suddenly B. shining brightly
C. flowing slowly in drops D. appearing slowly
【4】Why didn’t the man raise his head when the writer came near?

B. He was angry at being disturbed by the writer.
C. He was probably fast asleep.

I was only 12 when we moved to California. I remember that I enjoyed flying non-stop across a whole country and that I wasn’t very happy about leave my friends. But Dad think it’d be good for we all to live in a suburb instead in the middle of a city. And Uncle Jeff, his brother, who’d been living in California for about 20 years, were always telling us how wonderful California it was. He said it would be easily for Dad to get a job driving a taxi, that had been Dad’s job in New York. But we all agreed to try it for one year. Now we’ve been here for four years, and we all love it.

【题目】Why have you been so successful in reaching some of your goals, but not others? If you aren’t sure, you are far from being alone in your confusion. In fact, decades of research on achievement suggests that successful people reach their goals not simply because of who they are, but more often because of what they do. 【1】
1.Get specific
When you set yourself a goal, try to be as specific as possible. "Lose 5 pounds" is a better goal than "lose some weight" because it gives you a clear idea of what success looks like. 【2】 Also, think about the specific actions that need to be taken to reach your goal.
2. 【3】
Considering how busy most of us are, it's not surprising that we often miss opportunities to act on a goal because we simply fail to notice them. Did you really have no time to work out today? No chance at any point to return that phone call? Achieving your goal means seize these opportunities before they slip through your fingers.
3.Know exactly how far you have left to go
Achieving any goal also requires honest and regular monitoring (监督)of your progress—if not by others, then by you yourself. If you don't know how well you are doing, you can't adjust your behavior accordingly. 【4】
It is my hope that you have gained some insight (认识)into all the things you have been doing right all along. Remember: 【5】 It’s never what you are, but what you do.
A.Wait for opportunitiesto appear.
B.Seize the moment to act on your goals.
C.Here are things successful people do differently.
D.Next I'll talk about my own experience on how to achieve success.
E.You don't need to become a different person to become a more successful one.
F.Check your progress frequently — weekly, or even daily, depending on the goal.
G.Knowing exactly what you want to achieve keeps you motivated until you get there.
