【题目】根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Not all children want to listen to their parents. However, parents have been around for at least two decades or so longer than their kids. Here are four ways in which they might be right.
People should want to grow and change with time in a good way. People who hang around with those who are not as smart as they are will stagnate (停滞). So try to surround yourself with people who are worth learning from.
The more you learn, the less you really know. People tend to believe that they are right about everything before they've really learned anything about the world. This is largely due to contrast: people will realize how ignorant (无知) they were in the past after they've learned certain things, making them realize how much they've left to learn.
Growing up too fast is truly bad. However, these are the years when you are going to be more protected from the cruel realities of adulthood. You should try to appreciate this aspect of this life stage without being concerned with pushing your development too hard.
It is better to try and fail than fail to try. Children have to learn that failure is part of life. However, the sting (刺痛) of failure disappears gradually, and the regret about missed opportunities is going to sting far more for many adults. So don't stop going for certain goals because of a fear of failure.
A. Parents are wiser than you think.
B. It's hard enough for adults to accept.
C. Being around people who don't challenge you is a bad idea.
D. Your childhood years may not be the best years of your life.
E. They have some life experience, and it makes sense to listen to them.
F. People who bring out the best in others will reach their personal best.
G. By the time they have, they'll realize how complicated (复杂) the world can be.
【答案】E；C；G；D；B
【解析】父母有生活经验，听他们的是有道理的。孩子必须知道失败是生活的一部分，不能因为害怕失败而停止实现自己的目标。
（1）E空格前两句：不是所有孩子都听父母的。然而，父母可能在我们身边二十几年甚至更长时间。可知下句的意思是：他们有一些生活经验，所以听他们的是有道理的。故选E。
（2）C根据空格下一句：人们应该希望在一个好的方式中成长和改变。可知上句的意思是：做一个不挑战你的人是个坏主意。这会阻止你的成长。可知C项符合题意。
（3）G根据空格前：你学的越多，你知道的越少。他们倾向于认为他们在真正学到东西以前他们在每件事上都是正确的。可知此空表达的意思是：到他们学到的时候为止，他们将意识到世界是多么的复杂。可知G项符合题意。
（4）D空格上一句：成长太快真的不好。空格下一句：然而，这些年你避开了成年人的残酷现实而被保护。可知此空的意思是：你的童年时期可能不是你一生当中最好的。故选D。
（5）B 空格前一句：孩子必须知道失败是生活的一部分。空格后一句：然而，失败的刺痛会渐渐地消失，错失机会的后悔将会更加刺痛成年人。可知此空的意思是：成年人很难接受。

There are three things that will get you ahead in life: good looks, smarts, and being considered as being smart. And unluckily most of us are not good-looking. Let's explore some different ways to become smarter.
College doesn't necessarily mean you'll be smarter, just educated. It means you'll be exposed to many different ideas and hopefully you'll learn how to think. Being able to think outside the box and for yourself are features smart people possess.
Read books and educational magazines. Educational magazines are a wealth of knowledge you can share with others, thus making you sound very smart. If you do watch television, try watching something that you can learn.
Expand your vocabulary. Try to learn one new word a week. It doesn't seem like much, but adding 52 new words to your vocabulary will really make you appear much smarter. Subscribing (订阅) to vocabulary.com is a good start. This way you're actually getting 365 words a year, but that is usually more than most people can absorb.
Don't repeat everything people tell you until you know that it's true.They hear a strange claim and they repeat it to the nearest ear. You can do much harm to your seek for being smart if you are known for giving bad information.
A. Go to college and get an education.
B. The first is God-given.
C. Get educated inside or outside college.
D. You will have a new word sent to your email address daily.
E. The programs actually provide you with information you can use.
F. Uneducated people and people not considered as being smart tend to do this.
G. Reading books works the brain out more than viewing television.

【题目】根据短文理解，选择正确答案。
Deserts are found where there is little rainfall or where rain for a whole year falls in only a few weeks' time. Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants to survive if the rain is spread throughout the year. If it falls within one or two months and the rest of the year is dry, those plants may die and a desert may form.
Sand begins as tiny pieces of rock that get smaller and smaller as wind and weather wear them down. Sand dunes (沙丘) are formed as winds move the sand across the desert. Bit by bit, the dunes grow over the years, always moving with the winds and changing the shape. Most of them are only a few feet tall, but they can grow to be several hundred feet high.
There is, however, much more to a desert than sand. In the deserts of the southwestern United States, cliffs (悬崖) and deep valleys were formed from thick mud that once lay under a sea more than millions of years ago. Over the centuries, the water dried up. Wind, sand, rain, heat and cold all wore away at the remaining rocks. The faces of the desert mountains are always changing –-very, very slowly ---as these forces of nature continue to work on the rock.
Most deserts have a surprising variety of life. There are plants, animals and insects that have adapted to life in the desert. During the heat of the day a visitor may see very few signs of living things, but as the air begins to cool in the evening, the desert comes to life. As the sun begins to rise again in the sky, the desert once again becomes quiet and lonely.
（1）Many plants may survive in deserts when___________.
A.it is dry all the year round
B.the rain falls only in a few weeks
C.there is little rain in a year
D.the rain is spread out in a year
（2）Sand dunes are formed when____________.
A.sand piles up little by little
B.there is plenty of rain in a year
C.the sea has dried up over the years
D.pieces of rock get smaller
（3）The underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably means that in a desert there is_____.
A.too much sand
B.more sand than before
C.nothing except sand
D.something else besides sand
（4）It can be learned from the text that in a desert____________.
A.there is no rainfall throughout the year
B.life exists in rough conditions
C.all sand dunes are a few feet high
D.rocks are worn away only by wind and heat

【题目】Cheating has been around forever, and millions of ways to cheat have been fashioned. Copying homework and cheat sheets are some of the most basic ways. Desperate students have even gone as far as to steal the test or scan in bottle wrappers and put answers into the nutrition label. The Internet has now become available in almost every location, which opens a doorway for even more methods of cheating to be born.
There are countless opinions on whether or not cheating can be justified. Students often rationalize their cheating by claiming they forgot to look over the material or did not understand what the teacher was saying. Some other reasons students believe cheating is justified are their heavy workloads and they are struggling to find time for school, sports and etc. The majority of students who think cheating is acceptable may believe the reason for this is that there is not enough time given for assignments, or that the information is too much for the course.
It may be difficult to accomplish, but cheating can be prevented. Teachers and professors have tried many options to stop cheating, from simply spreading test-takers out in a room, to expelling（驱逐）a student. One simple way to fix the problem is to scold the student when caught. They may be so scared or embarrassed that they never do it again. This is a risky way to prevent cheating in some cases, however, because it can possibly damage self-esteem. Another simple way to avoid cheating is to create many different kinds of the same test, but students still have the option of using other cheating tactics.
There may be a million ways to cheat and get away with it, but there are few times, if any, that it is justified. Cheating never has to be a necessity. This problem is spreading throughout America; with everyone's help, it can be stopped.
【1】What does the underlined word “justified” probably mean in this passage?
A. reasonable B. necessary
C. praiseworthy D. preventable
【2】The reason that is given by most students who think cheating is understandable is that _____.
A. they don't understand their teachers' words
B. they bury themselves in a lot of homework
C. they don't have enough time to complete the study tasks
D. they forget to look over the material
【3】What is the disadvantage of scolding the cheating students according to the passage?
A. They may continue to cheat next time.
B. They may be hurt mentally.
C. They may use other cheating tactics.
D. They may get on badly with their teachers.

【题目】阅读理解
A Samoan airline says that it is the world's first carrier to charge passengers by their weight. Samoa Air, which opened in 2012, asks passengers to give their personal weight during booking, which is then charged according to the length of a flight. The customers will also be weighed just before they board the plane.
"It is believed that all people throughout the world are the same size," Samoa Air CEO Chris Langton said. "Airplanes always run on weight, not seats."
"There is no doubt in my mind that this is the concept of the future. This is the fairest way of your travelling with your family or yourself."
Though the airline introduced the plan last November, it caught people's attention last week when the carrier began international flights to neighboring American Samoa.
Almost at the same time, a Norwegian economist, Bharat Bhatta, published a report suggesting that airlines should charge obese passengers more.
The Pacific Islands contain some of the world's most common countries for obesity, many ranking in the top 10, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Samoa is ranked number four, with 59.6 percent of the population considered obese, said the most recent WHO report.
According to Samoa Air's latest schedule, the airline charges up to $0.57 per kg for flights in Samoa and $1.03 per kg for its only international flight to American Samoa, around 250 miles.
Children under 12 are charged 75 percent of the adult rate, with fares also based on weight. Any overweight baggage is calculated at the same rate as the passenger's personal weight.
The plan could actually prove cheaper in some cases, such as for families travelling with small children, and Langton said customer reaction has mainly been "amazingly positive".
The idea of charging passengers by weight has been hotly discussed before, and in the US some airlines require those who do not fit into a seat comfortably to buy a second seat.
（1）What does the underlined word "this" in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Airlines should charge passengers by flight length.
B.All people throughout the world are the same size.
C.It is unfair to weigh passengers at the airport.
D.Airplanes always run on weight, not seats.
（2）In Bharat Bhatta's eyes, Samoa Air's plan might be _______.
A.funny
B.acceptable
C.strange
D.disappointing
（3）A 100 kg adult flying to American Samoa would be charged _______.
A.$57
B.$75
C.$103
D.$125
（4）What does the text mainly tell us?
A.59.6% of Samoans are considered obese.
B.Samoa Air introduces pay-by-weight pricing.
C.Airlines should charge obese passengers more.
D.Baggage must be calculated as passengers' weight.
