    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    以下这篇文章所介绍的名人是一位身残志坚的科学家。他对人类做出了重大的贡献。你听说过他吗？

    　　Stephen Hawking was born in Oxford, England on 8th January, 1942．He went to school in St Albans－a small city near London．Although he did well, he was never top of his class．After leaving school, Hawking went first to Oxford University where he studied physics, then he went to Cambridge University where he studied cosmology．As he himself admits(承认)，he didn't work hard．He was a very lazy student, and did very little work．However, he still got good marks．

    　　It was at the age of 20 that Hawking first noticed something was wrong with him．He started to bump(撞上)into things．When he visited his family at Christmas time, his mother was so worried that she made him see a doctor．Hawking was sent to hospital for tests．Finally, the result came back．Hawking had motor neurone disease, an incurable illness which would make him unable to speak, breathe(呼吸)or move without the help of a machine．Doctors said they had no way to help him．He would die before he was 23．

    　　At first, Hawking became very depressed(忧伤的)．After a while, though, he began to see his life in a different way．As he later wrote,“Before my illness was diagnosed(诊断)，I had been very bored with life．There had not seemed to be anything worth doing．But shortly after I came out of hospital, I suddenly realized that there were a lot of worthwhile things I could do．”Hawking married, found a job at Cambridge University, and had three children．He also went on to do some of the most important scientific research．

    　　Today, Hawking still works at Cambridge University as a professor．He strongly believes that his story shows that nobody, however bad their situation(处境)is, should lose hope．“Life is not fair,”he once said．“You just have to do the best you can in your own situation．”

    Childhood is a time of fun and games. Many people still remember when they were young, they often played games like hide-and-seek and chess. Playing teaches children how to get with others, and it also helps to exercise the mind and body. However, children today spend most of their time in front of the computer, playing video games.
    A recent survey found that in the US. Children between 8 and 12 spend at least 13 hours a week playing video games or "gaming". Boys of this age spend even more time, almost 16 hours a week. Although some people will say that gaming is helpful, it brings many problems as well.
    One big problem is that kids who spend most of their time on games might have difficulty communicating with real people. They might have trouble sharing and resolving (解决) problems because they do not practice these skills when sitting alone at a computer.
    Another problem is about health. Game players usually sit for hours without doing any exercise. And they might not eat healthily. As a result, they might be out of shape.
    Next, game players might have trouble with their lessons. Many of them spend more time playing games than working on their homework. In the end, they fail in the exams.   
    Finally, it is always possible that the gamers become addicted. Some people play four or five hours a day or even all day. This happened to a 28 - year - old Korean man. He spent about 50 hours playing an online game without sleeping or eating well. He died while gaming!
    This is one example of the dangers of video gaming. It tells us that video gaming, like everything else, should not be done too much. A few hours a week should not hurt, but several hours a day just might be dangerous to your health.
    【小题1】Children of 8 to 12 in the US spend at least _________ hours a week playing video games.

    A．Two.B．Three.C．Four.D．Five.
    【小题3】If game players spend lots of time playing games without doing their homework, they might __________.
    A．become illB．lose their friendsC．die at onceD．get lower grades at school
    【小题4】What does the underlined word “addicted” mean in Chinese?
    A．悲伤B．无聊C．成瘾D．沮丧
    【小题5】What does the writer want to tell us by writing this passage?
    A．Video gaming has quite a lot of advantages.
    B．Video gaming might be a dangerous thing.
    C．Childhood is a time of fun and games.

    Have you ever seen a movie called “ The Choir Boys”(《放牛班的春天》)？The French movie tells the story of a group of naughty boys who learn music from a dedicated(尽职的) teacher. In Shanghai, there is also a group of children learning music. But their story is a bit different.
    The musical group, “Shepherds’ Kids” , was founded(建立) by the Shanghai Jiuqian Volunteer Center. There are about 40 students in this group. Their parents are migrants(打工者) working in Shanghai.
    “ The music courses are free,” said Zhang Yichao, founder of the group. “We just want to make the children’s lives more colorful.”
    The kids learn singing, dancing and musical instruments. Their teachers are volunteers from high schools.
    Learning music is not an easy job, especially for these migrant workers’ children.
    “I never know the musical stave(五线谱) before,” said Hua Delong, 13. “Sometimes it was really hard to study.”
    Tang Yue is a volunteer teacher at the center. She is a student from Shanghai Ping’he Bilingual High School.
    “These kids face difficulties bravely,” said Tang. “Sometimes they have to help their parents do housework and have little time to practice, but I never hear them complain.”
    Their hard work has paid off(回报). Today many people know the group. They have even performed as a choir for foreign pop stars.
    Li Luo, 14, told “ Teens” how appreciative she was of the group.
    “I had little fun before. I seldom(很少) watched TV. Study seemed the most interesting thing in my life. “Shepherds’ Kids has given me a new life.”
