    The middle school Foreign Language Program begins with a program at 5th level. All students take twelve weeks each of French, German and Spanish. Students continue with the language of their choice at 6th, 7th and 8th levels to complete the two semesters of high school work. 
    Foreign Language classes are 23 minutes long and meet four times per week. The classes actively involve the students in listening exercises, vocabulary building, reading, writing, grammar and the development of oral proficiency  in specific topic of conversation.
    The program is also designed to give students cultural insight into the beliefs and behaviors of the people and cultures represented by each language. Art, history, music, dance, food and the customs of each society are examined through filmstrips , games, cultural event projects and activities. The high school student exchange programs are involved with the middle school to allow personal contact with students from other countries where the languages are spoken.
    Each year the advancements in technology help to bring the students even closer to the people of the world they are studying. Computer programs are used to practise and increase vocabulary and various language skills. The resource programs provide facts and figures instantly to supplement their knowledge of history and geography. The Internet offers opportunities to tap information on a number of topics in English and in other foreign languages. The faculty makes every effort to be aware of new technology and to make it accessible to the students whenever possible.
    The middle school program hopes to help each student to do the study of foreign language throughout their life with education, travel and a continued awareness of the world and its peoples.

    Have you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all ,you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.
    Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However ,they sing most of the time for a very different reason .Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.
    Do you know what a “territory” is? A territory is an area that an animal ,usually the male, claims（声称）as its own .Only he and his family are welcome there .No other families of the same species（物种）are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.
    If so, you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him .A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time ,especially at nesting（筑巢）season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not .This screaming is what we call a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.
    Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.
    You can see that birds have a language all their own. Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.
    56．Some scientists believe that most of the time birds’ singing is actually       .
    A．an expression of happiness                   B．a way of warning
    C．an expression of anger                         D．a way of greeting
    57．What is a bird’s “territory”?
    A．A place where families of other species are not accepted.
    B．A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.
    C．An area for which birds fight against each other.
    D．An area which a bird considers to be its own.
    58．Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?
    A．Because they want to invite more friends.
    B．Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.
    C．Because they want to find outsiders around.
    D．Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.
    59．How does the writer explain birds’ singing?
    A．By comparing birds with human beings.
    B．By reporting experiment results.
    C．By describing birds’ daily life.
    D．By telling a bird’s story.

    When a storm is coming, most people leave the area as quickly ad possible and head for safety. But there are a few people who will get into their cars and go straight for the center of the storm. These people are willing to risk(冒…危险)being killed by floods or 100-kilometer-an-hour winds for the excitement of watching the storm close up.
    “Storm chasing(追逐)” is becoming an increasingly popular hobby(喜好), especially in the Midwest of the United States, where there are frequent storms between March and July. A storm chaser begins the day by checking the Internet for the latest weather reports, and then drives up to 1,000 kilometers to where the storm will be and waits for it to develop.
    Although anyone can do it , storm chasing is extremely dangerous. The power of a big storm can throw a cow into the air or destroy a whole house in seconds. Storm chasers are also often hurt in accidents caused by driving in a heavy rain. If you are a beginner, it is much safer to join a group for storm-chasing vacations during the storm season.
    Even then, storm chasing is not all adventure and excitement . “Storm chasing is 95% driving,” says Daniel Lynch, who spends most of his summer storm-chasing.    “Sometimes you can sit around for hours waiting for something to happen, and all you get is blue sky and a few light showers.”
    However, for storm chasers, it is all worth it. “When you get close to a storm, it is the most exciting sight you will ever see in your life,” says Jasper Morley. “Every storm is an example of the power of nature, It is the greatest show on Earth.”
    56. For storm chasing, the first thing storm chasers do is to          .
    A. head straight for the center of the storm  B. get into the car for safety
    C. wait patiently for the storm to develop    D. collect information about a coming storm
    57. Beginners of storm chasing are advised             .
    A. not to drive in a heavy rain                           B. to do it in an organized way
    C. not to get too close to a storm                 D. to spend more time on it in summer
    58. By saying “it is all worth it” in the last paragraph, the author means that             .
    A. storm chasing costs a lot of money          B. storm chasing is worth hours of waiting
    C. efforts in storm chasing are well paid         D. a storm presents the greatest show on Earth
    59. What can we learn from the text?
    A.  Sometimes storm chasers get nothing but disappointment
    B.  Many storm chasers get killed in the storms.
    C. Storm chasing is becoming popular around the world.
    D. Storm chasing is only fit for young people.

    　　The plan: turn Mars into a blue world with streams and green fields, and then fill it with creatures (生物) from the earth. This idea may sound like something from a science fiction (科幻小说), but it is actually being taken seriously by many researchers.
    　　This suggested future for the “red planet” will be the main topic for discussion at an international conference hosted by NASA (美国宇航局) this week. Leading researchers as well as science fiction writers will attend the event. It comes as NASA is preparing a multi?billion?dollar Mars research programme. “Turning Mars into a little earth has long been a topic in science fiction,”said Dr Michael Meyer, NASA’s senior scientist for astrobiology (太空生物学). “Now, with scientists exploring the reality, we can ask what are the real possibilities of changing Mars.”
    Most scientists agree that Mars could be turned into a little earth, although much time and money would be needed to achieve this goal.
    　　But many experts are shocked by the idea. “We are destroying our own world at an unbelievable speed and now we are talking about ruining another planet,” said Paul Murdin, of the Institute of Astronomy, Cambridge, UK. Over the past months, scientists have become increasingly confident they will find Martian life forms. Europe and America’s robot explorers have found proof that water, mixed with soil, exists in large amounts on the planet.
    In addition, two different groups of scientists announced on March 28 that they had found signs of methane (甲烷) in the Martian atmosphere (大气). The gas is a waste product of living creatures and could be produced by microbes (微生物) living in the red planet’s soil.
    　　But scientists such as Dr Lisa Pratt, a biologist at Indiana University, say that these microbes will be put in danger by the little earth project. “Before we have even discovered if there is life on Mars, we are talking about carrying out projects that would destroy all these native lifeforms, all the strange microbes that we hope to find buried in the soil,” said Dr Pratt. This view is shared by Monica Grady, a planetary scientist at the Natural History Museum, London. “We cannot risk starting a global experiment that would wipe out the precious information we are looking for.” she said， “This is just wrong.”
    5. The passage is about________.
    A. a plan turning Mars into a little earth
    B. the necessity of changing Mars
    C. Mars supporting life
    D. finding water in the Mars
    6. Which of the following is NOT the reason why some scientists are against the plan?
    A. The project would wipe out all the native lifeforms on the Mars.
    B. The project will cost too much money and work.
    C. We would ruin Mars.
    D. We are destroying our own world at an unbelievable speed. 
    7. We can infer from the passage that________.
    A. water is a crucial factor for life
    B. the project will have little effect on the native lifeforms supposed to live on the Mars
    C. Monica Grady is in favour of carrying out the little earth project
    D. the idea turning Mars into a little earth is nothing but a science fiction
    8. Which of the following supports the conclusion of microbes living in the Mars’s soil?
    A. Scientists found liquid water in the Mars.
    B. Scientists found signs of methane in the Martian atmosphere.
    C. Scientists found a lot of good soil on the Mars.
    D. Scientists found some creatures living on the Mars.

    Fifteen years spent in the field of education has provided me with many treasured moments. One of the most unforgettable   36  when I was teaching second grade 10 years ago.
    In May I decided to plan something special for the children; a Mother’s Day tea. We had put our   37  together to come up with ideas of how to   38  our mothers. We practiced singing songs, memorized poems and wrote cards. We decided to hold our tea the Friday before Mother’s Day. I was surprised and   39  to learn that every mother was planning to attend. I   40  invited my own mother.
    Finally, the big day arrived. Each child lined up at our classroom door,   41 the arrival of his or her mom.   42  it got closer to starting time, I looked around and my eyes quickly found Jimmy. His mother hadn’t   43  up and he was looking upset.
    I took my mother   44  the hand and walked over to Jimmy. “Jimmy,” I said, “I have a bit of problem here and I was   45  if you could keep my mother   46  while I’m busy.”
    My mom and Jimmy sat at a table. Jimmy   47  my mom her treats, presented her with the gift I had made, just as we had   48  the day before. Whenever I looked over, my mother and Jimmy were in deep   49 .
    Last year, I took a senior class on a field trip, and there was Jimmy, I had the students complete an outline of the day’s   50  and an evaluation of our trip. Then I collected the students’ booklets and checked them to see if   51  was completed. When I came to Jimmy’s   52 , he had written “Remember our Mother’s Day tea we had in second grade, Mrs, Marra? I do! Thanks for all you did for me, and thank your mother, too.”
    I told him I really enjoyed what he had written. He looked rather embarrassed and   53   his own thanks and walked away. Suddenly he ran bark and gave me a big hug.
    “Thanks again. No one even knew my mother didn’t   54  it.”
    I ended my workday with a hug from a teenage boy who    55  stopped hugging teachers years ago.

    PART THREE  READING COMPREHENSION
    Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A,B,C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage. (20%)
    A
    “Mummy, I don’t know what to play with. ” Steve interrupts his mother, who is talking to a friend, for the fourth time. “You’ve got a room full of toys!” his mother says, impatiently, In fact it is the jumble of toys which is to blame for four -year-old Steve's lack of interest in his dolls, cars and stuffed （packed）animals. Each morning he tips out three washing baskets of toys all over his floor, listlessly pulls out something and shortly after is standing at his mother’s desk or following her into the kitchen saying: “Mummy, I am bored.”
    A family therapist（治疗专家）explains why children lose interest when they have a whole “toy shop” at home : “According to their brain development, little children are not in a position to judge the quality of a variety of things at once. There is always just one favorite toy for the moment. All the rest is left lying about.” What can parents do to stop their children from being oversupplied with toys? Under no conditions simply make something disappear without the child’s knowledge. If he/she takes no more notice of a toy, a parent can ask if it can be stored or given away. Be warned though the child will help. Lyn is the mother of four-year-old Jessie, and holds the toys and books that are the current（at present）favorites. When it seems to her that her daughter is tired from a cupboard in another room. The box of “old” toys goes into the cupboard. When her child says she is “bored”, they also get something from her cupboard—it may be something she has had for some time but because she hasn’t seen it for a while it is almost like a new toy.
    　　Some favorite toys stay out all the time, and there is collection of dolls which sits in the comer, but in this way Lyn has found that she has fewer toys to put away at the end of the day and her daughter always has something “fresh” to play with.
    66. Steve interrupted his mother several times because________.
    　　A. he felt uninterested in his toys       　      B. he disliked his mother’s guest
    　　C. he didn't have enough toys to play with　       D. he hoped his mother would play with him
    67. According to the therapist, children often complain that they have nothing, to play with because________.
    　　A. they can’t play alone for a long time
    　　B. they are too young to play with so many toys
    　　C. they are too lazy to pick out their favorites
    　　D. they lack the ability to value too many things at a time
    68. Which of the following can be used in place of the underlined word “jumble ”？
    　　A. Simple choice.                   　      B. Mixture in disorder.
    　　C. Ordinary appearance.　                   D. Same shape.
    69. Which is the advice given to parents in the text?________.
    　　A. Buy fewer toys for their children  　     
    B. Form good habits for their children
    　　C. Spare some time to play with their children   
    D.Put some toys away without telling their children

    C
    LONDON: What could possibly be wrong with planting trees? The benefits are obvious; they  firm the soil, soak up (摄取) extra water and take carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) our of the atmosphere.
    However, it now turns out that planting trees could add to global warming.
    Tree roots do a great job of keeping soil firmly on the ground and out of the wind’s power. The problem is that some of those dust clouds play an important part in soaking up carbon dioxide.
    Huge dust storms blow out over the oceans from dry parts of North Africa and central Asia. Tons of dust are lifted and left as a thin film over the ocean surface. The dust fuels oceanic life.
    Dust from China is carried east and left in the Pacific Ocean. If a tree-planting programme there is successful and the dust supply reduced, the net result may be that less carbon dioxide gets locked away in the ocean.
    Andy Ridgwell, an environmental scientist from the University of East Anglia, has spent the past few years studying dust and says his work “shows clearly that the complexity of the system and the importance of not tinkering(粗劣地修补) with it without understanding the results. For this reason the need is to focus(集中) on cutting carbon dioxide giving off rather than monkeying (瞎弄) about with the land surface.”
    An American scientist, Robert Jackson, has shown that when native grassland areas are invaded(侵入) by trees, carbon is lost from the soil. “We are studying why the soil carbon disappears, but one theory is that trees do a lot more of their growing above ground compared to grasses, so less carbon goes directly into the soil from trees, ” says Jackson.
    In wet areas of the world, the gain from trees absorbing carbon dioxide above ground seems to be outweighed(超过) by the loss of carbon from the soil below ground. Countries that plan to combat global warming by planting trees may have to think again.
    Solutions to environmental problems are often more complex than they first appear, and understanding the Earth’s climate is a very great challenge.
    63．People usually hold the opinion that       .
    A．huge dust storms can destroy carbon dioxide
    B．huge dust storms can destroy the oceans on the earth
    C．huge dust storms can’t do anything beneficial for man
    D．planting trees is the only way to control huge dust storms
    64．Andy Ridgwell, the environmental scientist, believes that       .
    A．dust plays a more important part than trees
    B．trees should’t have been planted in dry places
    C．carbon dioxide is harmful to everything on the earth
    D．environmental problems are more complex than expected
    65．Robert Jackson’s experiment proves that         .
    A．grassland areas should be covered by forests
    B．trees hold more carbon than grasses
    C．carbon can turn grass into dust
    D．less carbon can make trees grow faster
    66．The underlined word “combat” in the last paragraph means      .
    A．learn about      B．fight against     C．live with   D．give up

    A university math tutor has discovered the science behind “singledom”, finding that our chances of finding the perfect partner are just 1 in 285,000. Peter Backus, a tutor at the University of Warwick, published his “Why I Don’t Have a Girlfriend” paper after a three-year love drought.
    His unconventional study uses a famous math formula called The Drake Equation(德雷克等式), which was first used to estimate the existence of extra-terrestrial(地球以外) life.
    The results don't look promising for British singles. 30-year-old Mr. Backus found that out of the 30 million women in the UK, only 26 would be suitable girlfriends for him.
    The dull equation takes into account the number of women aged 24 to 34, living in his home city of London, and who are single, meaning his chances of meeting his dream woman on a night out are slim.
    The economics expert said: “There are 26 women in London with whom I might have a wonderful relationship. So, on a given night out in London there is a 0.0000034% chance of meeting one of these special people. That’s a 1 in 285,000 chance, so it’s not great.”
    The puzzling Drake equation reads: N =" R*" x Fp x Ne x Fi x Fc x L, and helped pioneering scientist Professor Drake to predict that there could be 10,000 civilizations in our galaxy.
    Mr. Backus simply replaced the original equation with his own criteria for a dream date, which included the percentage of women likely to find him attractive, and the number of girls aged 24-34 in London. He said: “The research may sound depressing to people looking for love, but the good news for singles is, it’s probably not your fault!”
    56. Mr. Backus’ discovery in this passage is mainly concerned about ______.
    A. whether there exists life out of our planet
    B. the possibility of his being able to find love
    C. how to get rid of singledom
    D. what math can do to serve our daily life
    57. What does Mr. Backus think of the result of his research?
    A. Optimistic.     B. Depressing.      C. Unrealistic.     D. Exciting.
    58. What can we learn from the first paragraph?
    A. Mr. Backus’ major research field is “singledom”.
    B. Mr. Backus found a girlfriend three years ago.
    C. Mr. Backus’ new thesis will surely be well received.
    D. Mr. Backus has been searching for love for long.
    59. By “the good news for singles” in the last sentence, Mr. Backus probably mean _____.
    A. you don’t have to blame yourself for remaining single  
    B. maybe the discovery is not reliable at all
    C. the result was based on his own criteria
    D. there might be more dream date out of London
    60. Which of the following statements is true?
    A. This passage could be published in a scientific magazine.
    B. The passage intends to prove there are other civilizations.
    C. The passage writer doesn’t really understand the Drake equation.
    D. Most women in London are not suitable for university teachers.
