【题目】Encouraging your high school student to do their best isn't as hard as you may think.It does take time and effort, but it should become part of a daily routine that both you and your teen can enjoy more than dread.【1】This is excellent dinner table conversation if you can keep it light and positive.And these suggestions can help you along:
◆Set the expectations.
Teens need a clear map of what you want them to do.You wouldn't do your teen any favors by not telling him/her what grades you'll be expecting.Send a clear message to your teen about the grades you expect to see in each class.【2】Keep your expectations in line with what your teen feels he/she can do.
◆【3】
While your teen will need to keep his/her goals in line with your expectations,he/she may need your assistance. Learning to establish goals teaches independence,one of the things your teen needs to learn to become a successful adult.Have what they need at home,or a way to get it.Resources are important for high school students.Your family should have library cards and a way to access the Internet for homework.【4】It's also a good idea to set up a mobile homework center.

G.Tell your teen school is just the beginning and gaining knowledge should be enjoyed.
【答案】
【1】C
【2】F
【3】A
【4】E
【5】D
【解析】本文是一篇议论文,主要介绍了父母对小孩高中学习的重要性。家长应该投入时间与精力参加到自己小孩的学习之中,帮助他们在高中时期有更好的表现。
【1】You can talk to your teen about school.空白处下一句说“如果你保持轻松和积极,那么这将成为一个完美的餐桌谈话”,可见此处应该填餐桌谈话的内容,再结合下文给出的建议可知,下文内容均围绕父母帮助处于高中阶段的孩子如何在学校做得更好的话题进行讨论。C选项为最佳符合题意选项,故选C。
【2】Set consequences for poor grades as well as rewards for good grades.“对于孩子的低分给予惩罚,而高分给予奖励”。空白处上一句“Send a clear message to your teen ....”,“给予孩子做出一个清晰的反馈....”此处应该接着反馈的内容讨论,给予孩子正反馈和负反馈,奖罚分明。下一句接着说明通过反馈而到达与父母期望一致。故选F。
【3】Help him/her set goals.“帮助他/她建立目标”。空白部分需要填文章的第二个小标题,接着上文“set the expectations”设置期望讨论,通过设置合理期望并且父母与孩子的期望达成一致之后,继而的步骤应该是帮助建立目标。后文说“尽管孩子会保持自己的目标与父母期望一致,他们仍然需要帮助”,可见此处小标题应为“帮助他们建立目标”,故选A。
【4】Without these things,your teen could be at a disadvantage.“没有这些东西,你的孩子可能出于劣势”。前面介绍说,“在家里备齐需要他们需要的东西或者让他们知道获取的方法。资源对高中生来说非常重要。你的家里应该有图书馆的使用卡以及完成接入网络满足家庭作业需要”,文又补充说“建立一个移动家庭作业中心”。这里都是从正面强调外部资源的重要性,缺乏反面论证。Without these things,your teen could be at a disadvantage.弥补了论证的不足,故选E。
【5】But don't be afraid to ask them tough questions.“但是别害怕问他们一些尖锐的问题”。结合前面一句,Always be respectful to your teen's teachers.“始终尊重你孩子的老师”,以及后一句,Learning in a classroom is a two-way street.“课堂上的学习是双向过程”可以推断出,两个句子之间出现了意思的转折。因此,前一句强调对老师的尊重,后一句则该补充和老师的交流,符合后面所说的“双向过程”,故选D.

When I was a boy I didn't have a smart phone. Home computers were unheard of, and our 13-inch television could only get one channel in clearly. Yet, I was never 1.

When summer came I would find myself 4 every day at the local pool or the river down the hill from my home. I never got sunburned5 I was never out of the water long enough. When it was 6 my friends and I would play football for hours and when the leaves fell we would would gather them into huge golden and red 7 to jump in. The first 8 of winter didn't stop the fun either: my brothers and I would have snowball fights and 9 into the woods to cut down our Christmas tree. 10 I would sit in my favorite chair by the warm, wood stove and read books that carried my11away to different lands and endless adventures.
Those simple 12 always brought me so much fun, so much laughter, and so much happiness. There was 13 to be bored about because there was always something to do, something to enjoy, and something to14 I fell a bit sorry for the children of today because they are spending so much time watching and so little time 15
One thing I am16, though, is that even in this technological world the simple pleasures of life can still comfort your soul. A hug still warms your heart. A walk in the woods still 17 your spirit. Petting a dog, playing a game,18 a hand, and saying “I love you” still make you feel joy. God loves us so much and God gives us the simple pleasures of life to enjoy and to 19. Embrace them all. Welcome them into your day, take them into your heart, and share them with everyone. Live and love as a joyous Child of God today and 20 .

【题目】Blind imitation is self-destruction. To those who do not recognize their unique worth, imitation appears attractive: to those who know their strength, imitation is unacceptable.
In the early stages of skill or character development, imitation is helpful. When I first learned to cook, I used recipes and turned out some tasty dishes. But soon I grew bored. Why follow someone else’s way of cooking when I could create my own? Imitating role models is like using training wheels on a child’s bicycle; they help you get going, but once you find your own balance, you fly faster and farther without relying on them.
In daily life, imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously(下意识地) hold poor role models. If, as a child, you observed people whose lives were bad, you may have accepted their fear and pain as normal and gone on to follow what they did. If you do not make strong choices for yourself, you will get the results of the weak choices of others.
In the field of entertainment, our culture glorifies celebrities. Those stars look great on screen. But when they step off screen, their personal lives may be disastrous. If you are going to follow someone, focus on their talent, not their bad character or unacceptable behaviors.
Blessed is the person willing to act on their sudden desire to create something unique. Think of the movies, books, teachers, and friends that have affected you most deeply. They touched you because their creations were motivated by inspiration, not desperation. The world is changed not by those who do what has been done before them, but by those who do what has been done inside them. Creative people have an endless resource of ideas. The problem a creator faces is not running out of material; it is what to do with the material knocking at the door of imagination.
Study your role models, accept the gifts they have given, and leave behind what does not server. Then you can say, “I stand on the shoulders of my ancestors’ tragedies and stories, and know that they are cheering me on.”
【1】To avoid the bad result of imitation, we should ________.
A. forget daily fear and pain B. ask others for decisions
C. choose the right example D. stay away from stars
【2】According to the author, the world moves on because of those who are ________.
A. desperate to insurance others with their knowledge
B. willing to accept others’ ideas
C. eager to discover what their ancestors did
D. ready to turn their original ideas into reality
【3】What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?
A. To highlight the importance of creatively.
B. To criticize the characters of role models.
C. To compare imitation with creation.
D. To explain the meaning of success.

【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and modern communication means. Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.
Man has been polluting the earth. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, man moved to another place. But this is no longer true. Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.
Air pollution is still the most serious. It's bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.
Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air.
Pollution by carbon dioxide is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. It is true that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.
The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must take care of the rise in population at the same time.

Dear editor,
I am Evan from Canada. Being the oldest child in the family has its disadvantages. First of all, I have to share all my toys with my young sisters. Of course, they don't need to return to the favor because I'm total uninterested in their things. Besides, they are always hanging around me. I just can't get moment's peace. At meals, I have to eat whichever is on the plate regardless of the taste. My sisters only try one bite if it's not our favorite food. In addition, when it comes to practice our musical instruments, I have to practice more than double the time. Worst of all, I got a larger quantity of housework. Comparing to them, I'm feeling rather annoyed. Can you please give me some advices?
Yours truly,
Evan Smith

Dear Sally,
Now I'd like to tell you something about my part-time job this summer vacation, of which I worked like a guide in a travel agency.The work was interesting but tired. I think it was helpful to work this holiday. It was the first time that I have earned money on my own.I've come to understand how hard my parents work to support for the family. I used to keep on ask them for money, but now I'll never waste money and learn to share worry with my parent. I've learnt how to get along well with others.
What's worse, I've gained some working and social experience and I have learnt something can' t be learnt from textbooks. All these will be good for my future. In a word, I had the wonderful and valuable summer vacation.
Yours,
Li Bing

【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
The African elephant, the largest land animal remaining on earth , is of great importance to African ecosystem(生态系统). Unlike other animals, the African elephant is to a great extent the builder of its environment. As a big plant-eater, it largely shapes the forest-and-savanna(大草原)surroundings in which it lives, therefore setting the terms of existence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat(栖息地).
It is the elephant's great desire for food that makes it a disturber of the environment and an important builder of its habitat. In its continuous search for the 300 pounds of plants it must have every day, it kills small trees and underbushes, and pulls branches off big trees. This results in numerous open spaces in both deep tropical forests and in the woodlands that cover part of the African savannas. In these open spaces are numerous plants in various stages of growth that attract a variety of other plant-eaters.
Take the rain forests for example. In their natural state, the spreading branches overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor. By pulling down trees and eating plants, elephants make open spaces, allowing new plants to grow on the forest floor. In such situations, the forests become suitable for large hoofed plant-eaters to move around and for small plant-eaters to get their food as well.
What worries scientists now is that the African elephant has become an endangered species. If the elephant disappears, scientists say, many other animals will also disappear from vast areas of forest and savanna, greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem.
(1)What is the passage mainly about?
A.Disappearance of African elephants.
B.Forests and savannas as habitats for African elephants.
C.The effect of African elephants' search for food.
D.The eating habit of African elephants.
(2)What does the underlined phrase “setting the terms” most probably mean?
A.Fixing the time.
B.Worsening the state.
C.Improving the quality.
D.Deciding the conditions.
(3)What do we know about the open spaces in the passage?
A.They result from the destruction of rain forests.
B.They provide food mainly for African elephants.
C.They are home to many endangered animals.
D.They are attractive to plant-eating animals of different kinds.
(4)The passage is developed mainly by________.
A.showing the effect and then explaining the causes
B.pointing out similarities and differences
C.describing the changes in space order
D.giving examples

【题目】After years of sales growth, major publishers reported a fall in their e-book sales for the first time this year, introducing new doubts about the potential of e-books in the publishing industry. Yet despite the increasing realization that digital and print can easily coexist in the market, the question of whether the e-book will “kill” the print book continues to surface. It doesn’t matter if the intention is to predict or dismiss this possibility; the potential disappearance of the book does not stop to inspire our imagination.
After television was invented, many claimed radio would die. But radio ended up surviving by finding new uses; people started listening in cars, during tram rides and on factory floors. The myth of the disappearing book isn’t new, either. As early as 1894, there was guess that they’d be replaced by what we today call audiobooks. This happened again and again. Movies, radio, television, and smartphones—all conspired to destroy print books as a source of culture and entertainment. It is not by chance that the idea of the death of the book surfaces in moments of technological change.
We create emotional bonds with media as they become an integral part of our life. The emergence of a new technology —like e-readers — doesn’t just in indicate economic and social change. It also causes us to adjust our relationship with something that has become an integral part of our day-to-day life.
The ones who still worry for the disappearance of print books may rest assured: Books have endured many technical revolutions and are in the best position to survive this one. Yet the myth of the disappearing medium will continue to provide an appealing narrative about both the power of technology and our dislike to change. Easy to remember and to spread, the story of the death of media reflects our excitement for the future, as well as our fear of losing parts of our intimate world一and finally, of ourselves.
【1】What do people tend to believe according to the text?
A. Print books will disappear in the end.
B. It is unwise to invest in e-books.
C. Digital and print will exist all the time.
D. The death of books is just an imagination.
【2】What can we learn from the second paragraph?
A. The forms of books change with new technology.
B. Books have a bright digital future actually.
C. Culture will disappear with the end of books.
D. The idea of book death follows technological changes.
【3】What does the myth of disappearing books reflect?
A. Our doubt about the power of technology.
B. Our fear of losing ourselves in society.
C. Our preference for new technology.
D. Our pleasure of experiencing technical revolutions.
