20.Many of us mistakenly believe thai it's wrong to think we have any good qualities.We may spend a lot of time blaming ourselves for our negative qualities,thinking that self criticism is the key to improvirtg our pcrformance.However,a constallt focus on our supposed shortcomings can stop our efforts to make friends with other people.How can we believe that others could like  us if we believe our inner being is flawed?
 If someone seems to dislike you,the reason for that dislike might have little or nothing to do with you.The person who doesn't like you miglit be fearful,or shallow.or busy or shy.Perhaps you and that person are simply a mismatch for each other at this particular time.
Don't take yourself out of the game by deciding that your flaws are bigger than your good qualities.In fact,some of the very qualities you consider to be flaws may be irresistible to someone else.Aliliough some factors that migllt cause one person to reject you,there are at least many factors that will work in your favor.
You might be thirty pounds over your ideal weight,but you may have a wonderful laugh and a real enthusiasm for life.There are many people who don't mind your extra pounds.You may drive a shabby car,but you might be a great dancer and a loyal friend.There are people out there  looking for loyalty,or fun,or sweetness,or wisdom,and the package it comes in is not important.If you are worried that you are not beautiful enough to attract friends,keep in mind that not everyone is looking.for physical beauty in their friends.You can decide to feel inferior because you don't have much money and you don't drive a nice car.You can believe that this is the reason  that you don't have many friends in your life.On the other hand,if you are very wealthy you may  be suspicious that everyone is after V our money and that nobody really likes you as a person.
 The point is that you can focus on just about anything and believe it's the reason you do  not have friends and cannot make any.

16.If you never read the classic F.Scott Fitzgerald's novel The Great Gatsby,now is your chance to catch up-by watching the latest film adaptation.Because if there's one sentence to sum up the film,it would be,as Fox News says in its review,"It's just like the book".
Director Baz Luhrmann's main challenge was"either to find a visual equivalent(相等物) for Fitzgerald's elegant essay--the open secret of the book's staying power--or to bend the material to his own exotic(異國(guó)的) strengths,"a Time magazine review says.He tries it both ways,with varying degrees of success.
Considered to be Fitzgerald's representative work,The Great Gatsby explores themes of idealism,resistance to change,social change,and excess,creating a portrait of the Jazz Age or the Roaring Twenties that has been described as a cautionary tale regarding the American Dream.
Nick,the narrator,moves to New York for the summer to visit his cousin Daisy.His next-door neighbor is Jay Gatsby (Leonardo DiCaprio),who rarely contacts with others and is rumored to be a hero of the Great War.Gatsby claims to have attended Oxford University,but the evidence is suspect.As Nick learns more about Gatsby,every detail about him seems questionable,except his love for Daisy.Though Daisy is married,Gatsby still adores her as his"golden girl."They first met when she was a young lady from a wealthy family and he was a working-class military officer.Daisy promised to wait for his return from the war.However,she married Tom,a classmate of Nick.Having obtained a great fortune,Gatsby sets out to win her back again.
"All of Fitzgerald's original creation finds its way into this film,even going as far as to include quite a bit of the original dialogue,"US film critic Justin Taroli writes in his review."The cast is beautiful as is the script,and the scenes are a visual feast,"Taroli adds.
DiCaprio does a good and professional job as the socialite by recreating Fitzgerald's description of Gatsby's charm."He can look at someone for an instant and understand how perfectly he or she wants to be seen,"David Denby,a film critic for The New Yorker,says in his review.
The use of music is almost reason enough to see the film."Luhrmann is at his best mixing visual and musical styles together to create something wholly original,"the Fox News review says.
For example,in one of the most outstanding scenes in the film,the first party scene,Nick walks quickly from one party guest to another party guest trying to explain all the gossip about Gatsby until he is finally introduced to the man himself,while the most stirring version of Rhapsody in Blue (composed by American musician George Gershwin in 1924)is played in the background.
28.What did Baz Luhrmann do to make the film a success?C
A.He adapted the story in the novel as he wished.
B.He made the film more powerful than the book.
C.He mixed his style with the elegance of the essay.
D.He showed the elegance of the pictures in the film.
29.What is Taroli's attitude towards the film?A
A.Favorable.B.Sceptical.C.Amazed.D.Unconcerned.
30.What are the characteristics of Gatsby?D
A.Faithful and warm-hearted.
B.Charming and professional.
C.Selfish and stubborn.
D.Mysterious and devoted.
31.Why does the author give the example of the first party scene in the last paragraph?C
A.Unfold the fact that Nick wants to know more about Gatsby.
B.Show the version of Rhapsody in Blue matches the film well.
C.Prove that the director is good at combining visual and music.
D.Convince us that the first scene is perfectly shot by the director.

8.When you learn reading,nlath,and other subjects taught in school from your parents or teaehers who come to your house,it's called homeschooling.A kid may be the only one,or he may be taught with brothers,sisters,or kids from the neighborhood.
Parents choose to homeschool their children for many different reasons.Sometimes a kid is sick and can't go to regular school.But more often,kids are homeschooled beeause their parents feel they can give their children a better education than the local school can.Patents also may choose homeschooling because they want their children's education to include religious (宗教的) instruction,which isn't offered at puhlie schools.
If you don't like school,homeschooling might seem like the perfect solution.But it's better for everyone if homeschooling isn't chosen just as an escape from school or prohlems there.Finding solutions to the problem should be the first step.
Kids who are homeschooled may benefit from the one-on-one attention.For example,if you don't understand something in math,the whole class won't he moving on without you.You might be the whole class!It's also possible that you might learn more than you would in a regular classroom,because if you really good at something,you can keep learning more at your own pace.
Kids who are homeschooled also may get out in their communities more than other kids.They may get to experience hands-on education at museums,libraries,businesses and other community resources.They also might volunteer or take part in"service learning"where they take on local projects.
No matter where a child goes to school,the key to learning is listening to the teacher and asking for help when you need it.A homeschooled child might feel more comfortable with his teacher (a parent),but the child still needs to pay attention and cooperate.Just like in a traditional school,teachers and students need to work together to achieve goals in the classroom.

64.The passage mainly tells usB.
A.every kid should be taught at home
B.what homeschooling is and how it works
C.the advantages and disadvantages of homeschooling
D.homeschooled kids should go out to do volunteer work
65.What does the author think of homeschooling?C
A.It shouldn't be encouraged at all.
B.It is not a good way to get educated.
C.It can offer kids what suits their needs.
D.It is only good for the kids who can't go to school.
66.The similarity of homeschooling and learning at school is thatA.
A.students all should cooperate with their teachers
B.students don't feel lonely
C.students all have many classmates
D.studenls all have more opportunities to get out
67.Which of the following should NOT belong to the reasons why kids get homeschooled?D
A.They can get more benefits from homeschooling.
B.They can't go to school because of their bad health.
C.They can learn something that is not taught in school.
D.They escape from school because they hate going to school.

15.Birds Can"Read"Human Gaze
We all know that people sometimes change their behavior when someone is looking their way.Now,a new study reported online on April 2nd in Current Biology shows that jackdaws-birds related to crows with eyes that appear similar to human eyes-can do the same.
"Jackdaws seem to recognize the eye's role in visual perception,or at the very least they are extremely sensitive to the way that human eyes are oriented(朝向),"said Auguste von Bayern,formerly of the University of Cambridge and now at the University of Oxford.
When presented with a preferred food,hand-raised jackdaws took significantly longer to get the reward when a person was directing his eyes towards the food than when he was looking away,according to the research team led by Nathan Emery of the University of Cambridge and Queen Mary University of London.The birds hesitated only when the person was unfamiliar and thus potentially threatening.
In addition,the birds were able to interpret human communicative gestures,such as gaze alternation and pointing,to help them find hidden food,they found.The birds were unsuccessful in using unmoving cues,including eye gaze or head orientation.
Unlike most birds,jackdaws'eyes have a dark pupil surrounded by a silvery white iris.The researchers said they believe jackdaws are probably sensitive to human eyes because,as in humans,eyes are an important means of communication for them.The hand-raised birds examined in the study may be even better than wild jackdaws at attending to human gaze and responding to the gestures of the people who have raised them.
The findings are particularly notable given that most other species investigated so far,including our closest relatives the chimpanzee and"man's best friend,"the dog,are not particularly sensitive to eye orientation and eye gaze,von Bayern said.Rather,she continued,chimps and dogs seem to rely on other cues such as head or body orientation in determining the looking direction of others.The results suggest that birds may deserve more respect for their mental abilities.
"We may have understated the psychological world of birds,"von Bayern said."Jackdaws,among many other birds,form pair ties for life and need to have much in common and work together with their partner,which requires an efficient way of communicating and sensitivity to their partner's viewpoint."

67.A hand-raised jackdaw hesitates to take a preferred food when the feederD.
A.is looking away from the food
B.holds the food in his hand
C.is looking at the food
D.is unfamiliar to the bird
68.According to the researchers,jackdaws can notice human eye orientation probably becauseA.
A.like humans,they also use eyes to communicate
B.they are far more intelligent than other birds
C.they are mostly hand-raised by humans
D.their eyes also have a dark pupil
69.Why does the author refer to chimpanzees and dogs?B
A.To suggest that they are much better at interpreting gaze alternation.
B.To reflect how unique jackdaws are in being able to notice gaze orientation.
C.To show that they communicate more frequently with humans than jackdaws.
D.To make clear that they rely on other means in determining people's intention.
70.What does the research finding uggest?B
A.Not all jackdaws are good at attending to human gaze.
B.We may have understated jackdaws'mental abilities.
C.We know embarrassingly less about birds than we assume.
D.The closer we communicate with animals,the better we understand them.

5.While applying to college may seem easy,getting in can be tough!When you apply for college,you will have to be honest with yourself and do a bit of research to find the right fit.Here are three steps to take when applying to colleges for the best chances at getting into the best college for you.
     Step l:Making A List Of Colleges To Apply To
     With over 6,000 colleges in the United States,the
first step in applying to college is to do some research
and make a college list.This process will be different for
everyone.The number of colleges you apply to can vary,
from applying  to 1 school (not recommended) to 30
schools (not recommended),each applicant can choose
how many colleges they apply to.Many limit the number because applications are accompanied by a fee..
     Step2:Splitting The List Into Target,Reach and Safety Schools                    
     In general,students will want to apply to three types of schools:Target,Reach and Safety schools.It is up to you how many applications you send,but a good mix would be more target than reach,and at least one safety.You will need to take your list,and now decide which are your top picks,which are attainable for you academically,which are affordable for you only with aid,and refine your broad list into a group of schools that gives you the best chance for success.Talk to an admissions counselor at your high school if you have questions about this.
     Step 3:Completing and Sending Applications to Colleges
     Once your list is complete you are ready to apply to college by completing and sending in applications!College applications take time to complete-you have to write essays,ask for recommendations and get test scores sent to schools-so stay organized!All colleges will require these types of application materials,so start thinking about these items well before October or December.Once you complete and send them,then you have successfully applied to college.

A.you should be cautious to pick up the right college
B.you don't have to think twice before applying to college

C.a(chǎn)re supposed to choose merely one most fit
D.a(chǎn)re required to pick out more than 30 colleges

B.the more college one chooses,the more successful he will be
C.a(chǎn)pplicants should send required materials before the deadline

9.My favorite English teacher could draw humor out of the driest material.It wasn't forced on us either.He took Samuel Johnson's dictionary,Addison's essays,and many other literary wonders from the eighteenth century and made them  hilarious,even at eight o'clock in the morning.The thing that amazed me most was that the first time I read these works on my own some of them seemed dead,but the second time,after his explanation,I couldn't believe that I hadn't seen the humor.The stories and poems and plays were suddenly filled with allusions (典故) and irony (反諷) and hilarious moments.I learned more from him than from any other teacher.
My least favorite English teacher also made people laugh.Some students found him to be funny.Many others did not.He assigned journals over a six week period,to be written every day.At the end of the six weeks I had a notebook full of bits and pieces about my ideas,short stories,reactions to what we had read,and so on.Our teacher announced that we would be grading each other's journals.Mine was passed to Joe,that class clown,who always behaved in a funny or silly way.He saw it fit to make joke of and said,"This writing isn't fit to line (襯墊) the bottom of a birdcage."Our teacher laughed at that funny remark.It hurt me so much that the anger from it has driven my writing and teaching ever since.
So what makes the difference?Humor is one of the most powerful tools teachers or writers have.It can build up students and classes and make them excited about literature and writing,or it can tear them apart.It is true that humor is either productive or counter-productive and self-defeating.

56.The passage mainly discussesC.
A.teaching         B.literature
C.humor            D.knowledge
57.The underlined word"hilarious"in Paragraph 1probably meansA.
A.funny             B.tiring
C.inspiring         D.brilliant
58.The English teacher the writer disliked mostB.
A.was not able to make students laugh
B.hurt his students'feelings
C.didn't let his students do the grading
D.had no sense of humor.
