6.When I was a kid,I was close to my dad,but as I grew older,he and I grew further apart.We always had totally different opinions.He thought that college was a waste of time,but for me it was important to finish college.He wanted me to work my way to the top as he had done in his field,but I wanted a different life.There was a time when we did not talk with each other.
A few months ago,I heard that my 84-year-old dad was in poor health.When he called and asked whether I could move from Colorado back to Tennessee to help him,I knew he was seriously ill.I am his only child and so it was time to meet my father's requirement.
Two weeks after moving back,we bought a boat and started fishing again.Fishing was one of the few things that we did while I was young and that we both enjoyed.It is strange but true that as we are fishing we are able to put things that have kept us apart for so many years behind us.We are able to talk about things that we have never talked about before.Fishing has been healing the old wounds that have kept us apart
It is not important how many fish we catch.It is about enjoying the relationship that we have not had for years.I'm 62 and he is 84.When we are on the lake fishing,it is like two kids enjoying life.It is far better to find a way to put the unhappy past behind.I am so lucky to spend the happy time with my father in his last years.Now my heart is filled with love.A smile always graces my lips.

16.Directions:Read the passage carefully.Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the no more than 10words.
The Mayan Indians lived in Mexico for thousands of years before the Spanish arrived in the 1500s.The Maya were an intelligent,culturally rich people whose achievements were many.They had farms,beautiful palaces,and cities with many buildings.The Mayan people knew a lot about nature and the world around them.This knowledge helped them to live a better life than most people of that time.Knowledge about tools and farming,for instance,made their work easier and more productive.
In ancient Mexico there were many small clearings in the forest.In each clearing was a village with fields of corn,beans,and other crops around it.To clear the land for farms,the Maya cut down trees with stone axes.They planted seeds by digging holes in the ground with pointed sticks.A farmer was able to grow crops that produced food for several people.But not every Maya had to be a farmer.Some were cloth makers,builders,or priests(教士).
Measuring time was important to the Maya,for farmers needed to know when to plant and harvest their crops.Mayan priests made a system to keep track of time.They studied the Sun,Moon,stars,and planets.They made a calendar from what they learned.The year was divided into 18months of 20days each with five days left over.The Mayan calendar was far more accurate than the European calendars of the time.
Around the year 800,the Maya left their villages and beautiful cities,never to return.No one knows why this happened.They may have died from an infectious disease.They may have left because the soil could no longer grow crops.Archaeologists(考古学家)are still trying to find the lost secrets of the Maya.They are still one of our greatest mysteries.
(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN THIRTEEN WORDS.)

81.Aknowledge of nature and the world around them helped Mayan people live a better life than most other people.
82.You know Maya farming was most productive from the fact that several people
could feed on the crops one farmer grew.
83.Why did Mayan priests make the Mayan calendar?Because farmers needed to know when to plant and harvest their crops.
84.When did Maya civilization collapse?Around the year 800..

1.I am a psychologist.I first met Timothy,a quiet,overweight elevenyearold boy,when his mother brought him to me to discuss his declining grades.A few minutes with Timothy were enough to confirm that his self-esteem (自尊) and general happiness were falling right along with them.
I asked about Timothy's typical day.He awoke every morning at six thirty so he could reach his school by eight and arrived home around four thirty each afternoon.He then had a quick snack,followed by either a piano lesson or a lesson with his math tutor.He finished dinner at 7pm,and then he sat down to do homework for two to three hours.Quickly doing the math in my head,I found that Timothy spent an average of thirteen hours a day at a writing desk.
What if Timothy spent thirteen hours a day at a sewing machine instead of a desk?We would immediately be shocked,because that would be called children being horribly mistreated.Timothy was far from being mistreated,but the mountain of homework he faced daily resulted in a similar consequence-he was being robbed of his childhood.In fact,Timothy had no time to do anything he truly enjoyed,such as playing video games,watching movies,or playing board games with his friends.
Play,however,is a crucial part of healthy child development.It affects children's creativity,their social skills,and even their brain development.The absence of play,physical exercise,and freefrom social interaction takes a serious toll on many children.It can also cause significant health problems like childhood obesity,sleep problems and depression.
Experts in the field recommend the minutes children spend on their homework should be no more than ten times the number of their grade level.As a fifthgrader,Timothy should have no more than fifty minutes a day of homework (instead of three times that amount).Having an extra two hours an evening to play,relax,or see a friend would soundly benefit any child's life quality.

62.What does the underlined word"them"in the first paragraph probably refer to?B
A.Timothy's parents.
B.Timothy's grades.
C.Psychologists.
D.The students.
63.What did the writer think of Timothy after learning about his typical day?C
A.Timothy was very hardworking.
B.Timothy was being mistreated.
C.Timothy had a heavy burden.
D.Timothy was enjoying his childhood.
64.Which of the following statements best describes the writer's opinion?A
A.Children should be allowed enough time to play.
B.Playing board games works better than playing video games.
C.The more they play,the more creative children will become.
D.The depression caused by homework makes children unwilling to play.
65.According to the passage,how long should a thirdgrader spend a day doing homework?C
A.About ten minutes.
B.No more than twenty minutes.
C.No more than thirty minutes.
D.About fifty minutes.

11.I was appreciating my family photos on my computer,admiring my two beautiful babies,when I found a disturbing trend:my laptop was in almost all the pictures.There was my daughter,8months old,playing at my feet while I was typing away on the couch.There was me and my son,with the laptop at my side as I held him in my arms.
I'd heard about the Internet addiction before,but always assumed I was something limited to socially challenged guys who played too much World of Warcraft (a computer game).Now it seemed my Internet"habit"is slowly but surely crossing the line.Sometimes I find myself up at midnight,surfing the Web while my family are sleeping.I read news,keep up with friends and write my blog …just for something to do.
It turns out that I'm not the only mama who is addicted to the computer.These moms are contributing to a growing global addiction.There's a movement among psychiatrists (doctors who specialize in mental diseases) to recognize the Internet addiction as an official mental disorder.And a recent Stanford University national survey found that 14percent of Internet users find it hard to stay away from it for several days at a time; 9percent try to hide their"unnecessary Internet use"from their loved ones; 8percent admit they use the Web as a way to escape problems.
You're likely not the kind of addict who doesn't bathe and abuses drugs to help her stay"up"for more online time.You may have noticed,though,that going online has become a necessary part of your life,which,at least,means a load of clothes go unwashed.
It may also mean you're missing much time with you baby-something you probably do care about.

59.From Paragraph 1,we can conclude thatD.
A.the author was busy taking care of her babies
B.the author's job had something to do with computers
C.the author was not good at taking photos of her babies
D.the author looked after her babies while using the computer.
60.The author used to think that the Internet addiction isD.
A.using the web at midnight        B.keeping up with friends online
C.spending too much time online    D.being addicted to computer games
61.In medical terms,the Internet addiction isC.
A.a personal life habit         B.a way to escape problems
C.an official mental disorder   D.the unnecessary use of the Internet
62.What does the author want to express in the last but one paragraph?B
A.Many women still can control their online time.
B.The Internet addiction influences housewives'lives a lot.
C.Going online has become a necessary part of women's lives.
D.Many people don't realize that they are addicted to the Internet.

18.All around the world,shoppers flock to Wal-Mart to buy everything.In Texas,they come for another reason:to see the wind turbine (涡轮机),which supplies 5% of the store's electricity.It along with other facilities,such as exterior walls coated with heat-reflective paint,makes this  Wal-Mart a green giant.
The laws of economics suggest that Wal-Mart,with 5,200stores worldwide,influences everything including the price of all kinds of goods.It throws its weight behind environmental responsibility,and the impact could be amazing."One little change in product packaging could  save 1,500trees,"says Wal-Mart CEO Lee Scott."If everybody saves 1,500trees or 50barrels of oil,at the end of the day you have made a huge difference."
Scott wants Wal-Mart to do its part too.He has promised to cut the existing greenhouse-gas emissions (排放) over the next few years and promised to construct new stores that are more efficient.He wants Wal-Mart's fleet (车队) of more than 7,000trucks to get twice as many miles per gallon by 2015.Factories that show Wal-Mart they're cutting air pollution will get preferential treatment in the supply chain.Wal-Mart says it's working with consumer-product manufacturers to  reduce their packaging and will reward them if they do so.
Some people may doubt it is a bid to attract attention from Wal-Mart's controversial labor and   health-insurance practices.But it's not just window dressing,because Wal-Mart sees profits in  going green.Scott says,"This is a business philosophy,not a social philosophy.We don't go where we don't think there's a great interest in change."
Like Bill Gates,who started his charitable foundation,Scott happens to be promoting Wal-Mart's image at a time when his company's reputation is declining.He acknowledges that he launched the plan partly to shield (保护,庇护) Wal-Mart from bad press about its contribution to global warming."By doing what we're doing today,we avoid the headline risks that are going to come for people who did not do anything,"he says."At some point businesses will be held responsible for the actions they take."Meanwhile,should Wal-Mart succeed at shrinking its environmental footprint and lowering prices for green products,both the planet and the company will profit.

44.We can infer from the passage thatC.
A.Lee Scott is Wal-Mart's CEO
B.there are 5,200stores in the world
C.Wal-Mart has a great influence on the world market
D.Wal-Mart has more than 7,000trucks all over the world
45.What does the underlined sentence"This is a business philosophy,not a social philosophy."mean in the fourth paragraph?A
A.Wal-Mart predicts huge profits in its green activity.
B.Wal-Mart's green activity is just window dressing.
C.Wal-Mart aims to solve its health-insurance practices.
D.Wal-Mart doesn't have any social responsibility at all.
46.What will Wal-Mart probably do in the future?A
A.Reduce air pollution in its present stores.
B.Give favorable treatment to its consumers.
C.Ask the factories to reduce their packaging.
D.Demand the fleet of trucks to use more fuel than before.
47.What is the main idea of the last paragraph?B
A.Provide the background of the green plan.
B.Stress the purpose of Wal-Mart's green plan.
C.Present the risk that Wal-Mart is facing nowadays.
D.Analyze the similarity between Bill Gates and Scott.
