【題目】 Crop Circle(麥田怪圈), first appeared in 1647 in England on the earth, has a lone history with 365 years.But t didn’t get much attention until the first modern crop circles appeared in Britain in 1972.From then on,more than 200 such crop circles appeared in the field all over the world, especially in South Africa.

Many scientists work really hard to find out how these amazing works came out. Unfortunately, until now, no one could tell clearly how these circles are formed.

In general,there are the following explanations:the first one is the earth’s magnetism(地磁), which is said that it is the magnetism form the earth that makes them. The second explanation is the effect of tornado(龍卷風(fēng)). The third one thinks these circles are the predictions of some kind of disaster. Also, some people believe it’s a great work from the creature outside the earth.And the last one is that some think they are made by human beings as a trick.

In a word, people still cannot tell exactly how those circles appeared. As the time goes, I believe that one day we could find out the reason why they are formed.

1In which year was the article written?

It was written _____.

2When and where did the first modern crop circles appear?

2in Britain in 1972

3five

5Crop Circle

【解析】

麥田怪圈1647年首次出現(xiàn)在英格蘭,但是沒有引起太大注意,F(xiàn)代首次出現(xiàn)麥田怪圈是1972年在英國(guó)。從那開始,世界各地出現(xiàn)超過200個(gè)麥田怪圈。很多科學(xué)家都不知道這是怎么產(chǎn)生的,至今也很難解釋。

1根據(jù)Crop Circle(麥田怪圈), first appeared in 1647 in England on the earth, has a lone history with 365 years.可知首次出現(xiàn)麥田怪圈是在365年前,可推測(cè)現(xiàn)在時(shí)1647+365=2012年,即報(bào)道的時(shí)間是2012年。故答案為in 2012。

2根據(jù)But t didn’t get much attention until the first modern crop circles appeared in Britain in 1972.可知現(xiàn)代的麥田怪圈1972年首次出現(xiàn)在英國(guó)。故答案為in Britain in 1972。

3根據(jù)第三段the first…the second…the third…Also…the last可知一共出現(xiàn)了5種解釋。故答案為five

4根據(jù)As the time goes, I believe that one day we could find out the reason why they are formed.

可知作者認(rèn)為隨著時(shí)間,最終有一天一定會(huì)找到真相。故答案為be found out。

5結(jié)合全文內(nèi)容可知本文主要介紹了麥田怪圈,并介紹了可能的一些原因。故答案為Crop Circle。

【題目】 At the Cool Beans Cafe in Virginia, US, a dollar can buy you a cup of fresh coffee.

But your purchase(購(gòu)買) also helps the seventh-grade students with special needs who run the cafe at Poquoson Middle School.

They get experience with job skills and social communication outside of the classroom by working at the cafe. “They really get a lot out of this,” said Heather Hopkins, the teacher who started the cafe and taught the students how to run it.

The five students who run the cafe each have a specific job. Jake Mann, the supply manager, looks at customers’ online orders and helps Braden Jobst, the barista (咖啡師), prepare the coffee. Alex Sarber, the barista assistant, adds any extra ingredients that the customers want.

The drinks are delivered by J.J. Shibuya. Jasmine Baker, the cashier (收銀員), goes on deliveries with J.J. and collects money and tips from their customers.

Hopkins started the coffee shop program this school year with $1,600 (10,040 yuan), which was provided by the Virginia Department of Education. The department gave the money to create opportunities for students to practice self-determined behavior and independence.

But even though the shop runs like a business, there’s plenty of opportunity to have fun. For example, Jake likes to pose for photos and admire pictures of the shop’s employees (雇員).

The students take pride in their work. They have discussed their work at a school board meeting and at a recent expo (展覽會(huì)) of instructional programs at Poquoson schools. For them, running the cafe isn’t just about selling coffee. It’s about improving their social skills and discovering the tools that they’ll need to succeed in life.

1What does the underlined word “run” mean?

A.B.運(yùn)行C.操作D.經(jīng)營(yíng)

2What can students learn from running the coffee shop?

A.How to communicate with others..

B.How to decorate a coffee shop.

C.How to order coffee online

D.How to take pictures.

3What is Jake Mann’s job at the cafe?

A.Washing coffee cups.

B.Delivering coffee.

C.Checking online orders.

D.Collecting money from customers.

4Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 6 and 7?

A.The coffee shop made $1,600 this year.

B.The Virginia Department of Education supported the program.

C.Students don’t have time to have fun.

D.The coffee shop uses employees’ photos to attract customers.

5What can we learn from the story?

B.Students can get coffee for free.

C.The coffee shop is run by a team of students.

D.Students are not satisfied with their work.

【題目】 It's Monday. I stay with my buddy until I say goodbye around midnight.

My car is parked on the street. As I get in, someone opens my door. It's a man holding a gun.

"Get out of the car!" he barks.

I step out. Another man pushes me into the backseat. We begin driving.

"Where's your money?" one shouts.

"I only have $400 in my account. You can check it through my phone and here's my password," I say. "You can have anything you want. Just let me get back to my family."

"If you're lying," he says, "I'll kill you."

When they see I'm not lying, they ask if my friend has money at the house where they picked me up.

"Maybe, " I say. "If he does, he'll give you whatever he has."

We drive back to my friend's house. I am led to the door, feeling a gun against my back. Before my friend opens the door, one man suddenly rushes me back into the car. I hear them arguing, wondering if my friend has called the police.

Now we're driving, and I have no idea where we are. I try to think of my mum, who is all I have left.

Then the car stops. I'm pulled out and pushed onto the road. I tell myself I can't die this way. Just then, I hear the sound of a police car, so do the men. They jump into my car and speed away. I'm left alone. I am alive.

I stand up and run to a car park, where the lights are on. I knock on a door.

"I've just been robbed and kidnapped," I say. "Can you please call the police?"

"Go away," he shouts. I turn back to run.

"Are you OK?" the woman asks.

"I was robbed and kidnapped," I say. "Please, I just need some help."

"That's all you need me to do?" she says in a motherly way. "We're going to wait for the police to get here."

The Emperor spoke in a low voice but I could hear all the words clearly.

His Majesty and I often spoke to each other but neither of us understood a single word. I tried words from many languages. No one could understand me, not even the cleverest of the Emperor's followers.

After about two hours the Emperor left. His wife, children and their servants went also. There were strong guards around me. This was to stop the crowd of people from hurting me.

An officer told the guards to hold six men who made me angry. These men were given to me and I had to choose their punishment. I put five of them in my pocket. Then I pretended(假裝)to eat the sixth man.

The poor man screamed terribly. The guards were worried when they saw my knife in my hand. I only cut the rope round his hands. Then I put him on his feet and let him go. I lifted the other five men out of my pocket and put them gently on the ground too.

The people and the soldiers were very pleased with my great kindness. They told the Emperor about it immediately. Emperor ordered his men to make a bed for me and they had to join six hundred of their little beds together to make one bed for me.

1Why did the tiny people hurt Gulliver at first?

A.They just wanted to make fun of him.B.They thought he would attack the king.
