1．If you're like most students，you probably read both at home and outside your home：perhaps somewhere on your schoolyard and maybe even at work during your breaks．Your reading environment can have a great effect on your understanding，so give some thought to how you can create or choose the right reading environments．The right environment allows you to stay alert（專注的）and to keep all of your attention on the text，especially when it is both interesting and difficult．
When you're at home，you can usually create effective conditions for reading．You might want to choose a particular place-a desk or table，for example-where you always read．Make sure the place you choose is well lighted，and sit in a chair that requires you to sit straight．Reading in a chair that's too soft and comfortable is likely to make you sleepy!Keep your active reading tools（pens，markers，notebooks or paper）and a dictionary close at hand．
Before you sit down for a reading period，try to reduce all possible interruptions．Turn off your phone，the television，and the radio．Tell your family members or roommates that you'll be busy for a while．If necessary，put a"Do not disturb"sign on your door!The more interruptions you must deal with while you read，the harder it will be to keep your attention on the task at hand．

33．The author believes that the right reading environmentB．
A．helps readers a little in their reading tasks
B．helps readers a lot in their reading tasks
C．can only be created at one's home

14．In the summer of 2014，about 17million people posted videos of themselves dumping （傾倒） ice water over their heads．Even many famous people，including singer-songwriter Taylor Swift，basketball player LeBron James，and former U．S．President George W．Bush，took part．Why did they do such a strange thing？
Those in the Ice Bucket Challenge all helped raise  awareness  （意識）  and money  to  fight amyotrophic lateral sclerosis （ALS），a deadly disease．It is also known as Lou Gehrig's disease，after a famous baseball player who had it．It destroys neurons （nerve cells） that control muscle （肌肉） movement．
Each year，about 5，600people in the U．S．are diagnosed （診斷） with ALS．The disease leads to the inability to move．Many people die two to five years after learning they have it．Right now，there's no right treatment for ALS．But the Ice Bucket Challenge may help lead to one．
"Before  the  Ice  Bucket  Challenge，few people knew about this terrible disease，"Jonathan Ling said．He is one of the scientists at Johns Hopkins University in Maryland．His team was unable to complete its research without the money raised through the Ice Bucket Challenge，Ling says．
Through their research，Ling and his team discovered that a protein （蛋白質 ） is damaged in most ALS patients．The scientists also found that nerve  cells with these damaged proteins  die quickly．But when the scientists put a new protein that acted like the damaged one into the nerve cells，the neurons came back to life!
Thanks  to  the  team's  research，experts believe they may be one step closer to a treatment that slows down or even stops ALS．Still，more research needs to be done，Ling admits．With that in mind，the ALS Association is promising that the Ice Bucket Challenge will continue every August until a good treatment is found．
32．What can we learn about ALS？A
A．No one knows how to treat the disease．
B．It is also named after a singer．
C．People will die a few days after they have it．
D．It can make people lose the ability to hear．
33．What might be Ling's attitude to the Ice Bucket Challenge？D
A．Worried．
B．Doubtful．
C．Uninterested．
D．Thankful．
34．According to the text，Ling's teamC
A．knows little about ALS
B．is now short of money
C．has made some progress
D．needs more researchers
35．What would be the best title for the text？B
A．How the Ice Bucket Challenge started
B．The Ice Bucket Challenge and ALS
C．Jonathan Ling，great ALS researcher
D．Some little-known facts about ALS．

When I was little, I always wanted a luxurious house. That was my idea to be successful. I took all the classes with full carefulness and tried to do well in the exams with my mind set on going to a key school. I just knew that I would somehow become famous and be able to afford the dream house. All the way through junior years, my mind was planning this wonderful future.

Then in the tenth grade, many losses changed my mind. First, one of my friends died at 16. Soon after, my great-grandmother passed away, followed by my beloved fourth-grade teacher. These events left me not knowing what to do or where to go. Death had never touched me so closely.

After a long period of emptiness, it finally struck me: Life is not promised and neither is future success. Though I was attempting to achieve material success, I was not enjoying my daily life. I realized that finding inner peace, purpose and happiness will stick with me forever and that is real success.

Enjoying life's precious quirks(偶發(fā)事件) makes an ordinary person more successful than a wealthy person who isn't content and takes everything for granted. The summer before senior years, my attitude changed greatly. Instead of memorizing facts, I began learning skills. Instead of focusing on the future, I focused on today and the many blessings and successes that came with it.

I still get excellent grades, but now I devote weeks to studying instead of struggling for exams, and I think about the future with a deeper sense of meaning. For me, being successful means truly living life each day.

1.What’s the idea of success for the author at first?

A. Getting a great house B. Taking classes carefully

C. Doing well in the exams D. Being famous

2.Why did the author change his idea to be successful?

A. His beloved teacher was dead

B. He lost a few beloved persons in a short time

C. He couldn’t afford a house

D. He didn't know how to fight for the house

3.According to the passage, which of the following is true?

A. His teacher died before the death of his grandpa

B. He thought that life and success were not promised

C. He failed the exams after he changed his attitude

D. He didn’t want to achieve material success any longer

4.What does the author wants to tell the readers?

A. Material success is unnecessary

B. He was glad that he changed his mind

C. Set goals and work hard to be successful

D. Cherish every moment and truly live life

Investing in yourself

Figuring out how to invest your money can be a difficult task. This is something that you will want to learn how to do.

1. Things that will improve your knowledge, skills or health are all great investments. However, before you start, you need to be clear about what you will gain out of doing all of these things.

You may think investing in yourself means investing in your education. 2.. There are some other things you can do as well as buying a gym membership or learning a new skill.

So what are some specific things you can do? 3.. Reading books can really expand your mind and allow you to learn different skills and gain knowledge. I’m talking about the books where you will actually learn a new skill, not fiction books.

You can also take courses and attend seminars. These programs are taught by people with a high level of knowledge or skill. 4.. Only in this way can you avoid being fooled by some sales presentation.

Moreover, investing in yourself is a safe way to keep your money. Although a savings account is seen as the most secure investment, that isn’t 100% safe. Even if you never experience your bank closing down, the return is little when inflation(通貨膨脹) is taken into consideration. 5.. But over time, they will show up in terms of your happiness level as well as your level of success.

A. This is just one way.

B. The benefits will stay with you.

C. If you aren’t a reader, you should start with that.

D. The more you do this, the more valuable you will be.

E. Of course, you need to do some research before investing.

F. The best way to invest your money is to invest it in yourself.

G. When you invest in yourself, you may not see gains right away.

13．On a bright，warm July afternoon，Mac Hollan，a primary school teacher，was cycling from his home to Alaska with his friends．One of his friends had stopped to make a bicycle repair，but they had encouraged Mac to carry on，and they would catch up with him soon．As Mac pedaled （騎行） along alone，he thought fondly of his wife and two young daughters at home．He hoped to show them this beautiful place someday．
Then Mac heard quick and loud breathing behind him．"Man，that's a big dog!"he thought．But when he looked to the side，he saw instantly that it wasn't a dog at all，but a wolf，quickly catching up with him．
Mac's heart jumped．He found out his can of hear spray．With one hand on the bars，he fired the spray at the wolf．A bright red cloud enveloped the animal，and to Mac's relief，it fell back，shaking its head．But a minute later，it was by his side again．Then it attacked the back of Mac's bike，tearing open his tent bag．He fired at the wolf a second time，and again，it fell back only to quickly restart the chase（追趕）．
Mac was pedaling hard now．He waved and yelled at passing cars but was careful not to slow down．He saw a steep uphill climb before him．He knew that  once he hit the hill，he'd be easy caught up and the wolf's teeth would be tearing into his flesh．
At this moment，Paul and Becky were driving their car on their way to Alaska．They didn't think much of it when they saw two cyclists repairing their bike on the side of the road．A bit later，they spotted what they，too，assumed was a dog running alongside a man on a bike．As they got closer，they realized that the dog was a wolf．Mac heard a large vehicle behind him．He pulled in front of it as the wolf was catching up fast，just a dozen yards away now．
注意：
1．所續(xù)寫短文的詞數(shù)應為150左右；
2．應使用5個以上短文中標有下劃線的關鍵詞語；
3．續(xù)寫部分分為兩段，每段的開頭語已為你寫好；

      A few minutes later，the other two cyclists arrived．"Thank godness!Where did you go？"Mac held his two friends tightly in arms．"I'm happy to see you again，my friend．Inoticed a big dog running on the road when I was repairing my bike．And then we realized thatit was a wolf，so we kept hiding ourselves until it went away．""Oh，my god，without these two gentlemen's help，I would be the dinner of the wolf．"Finally，though tired，they continued their way and reached Alaska，safe and sound．（高分句型三） What an unforgettable experience they shared!．

13．Winter is the time of year when people feel very blessed．This isn't becau se people feel thankful for the cold weather，nor because the important festivals---Christmas or Spring Festival---offer an excuse to celebrate．In fact，"Bless you!"is a common response if someone sneezes，a symptom（癥狀）of catching a cold or the flu．
   Colds and the flu are the most common illnesses of autumn and winter as the weather gets colder．Viruses cause them．If you get one you will feel annoyed，but it is not usually serious．The flu is spread from person to person when we come into contact with a person with the virus．We get the virus on our hands and then we touch our noses and our mouths．We can pass on the flu before we realize we have it．You can infect（傳染） others one day before symptoms develop and for up to five days after becoming sick．
   Getting a flu vaccination is the best way to prevent the illness．Even if your body has built up antibodies（抗體）for one kind of flu．The vaccine（疫苗）is only effective for one year and viruses are different from year to year，so it is necessary to get a flu vaccination every year．The best time to get the vaccination is October or November．Besides，there are other ways to reduce your chance of getting a flu．Wash your hands．Get enough rest．Eat garlic regularly．Don't let stress control you．Exercise regularly．
29．We say"Bless you!"whenB．
A．we feel annoyed at someone．

14．People are being lured （引誘）onto Facebook with the promise of a fun，free service without realizing they're paying for it by giving up large amounts of personal information．Facebook then attempts to make money by selling their data to advertisers that want to send targeted messages．
Most Facebook users don't realize this is happening．Even if they know what the company is up to，they still have no idea what they're paying for Facebook because people don't really know what their personal data is worth．
The biggest problem，however，is that the company keeps changing the rules．Early on，you keep everything private．That was the great thing about facebook-you could create your own little private network．Last year，the company changed its privacy rules so that many things-your city，your photo，your friends'names-were set，by default （默認）to be shared with everyone on the Internet．
According to Facebook's vice-president Elliot Schrage，the company is simply making changes to improve its service，and if people don't share information，they have a"less satisfying experience"．
Some critics think this is more about Facebook looking to make more money．Its original business model，which involved selling ads and putting them at the side of the page，totally failed．Who wants to look at ads when they're online connecting with their friends？
The privacy issue has already landed Facebook in hot water in Washington．In April．Senator Charles Schumer called on Facebook to change its privacy policy．He also urged the Federal Trade Commission to set guidelines for social-networking sites．"I think the senator rightly communicated that we had not been clear about what the new products were and how people could choose to use them or not to use them，"Schrage admits．
I suspect that whatever Facebook has done so far to invade our privacy，it's only the beginning，which is why I'm considering deactivating（撤銷）my account．Facebook is a handy site，but I'm upset by the idea that my information is in the hands of people I don't know．That's too high a price to pay．

66．What do we learn about Facebook from the first paragraph？C
A．It is a website that sends messages to targeted users．
B．It makes money by putting on advertisements．
C．It profits by selling its users'personal data．
D．It provides loads of information to its users．
67．What does the author say about most Facebook users？B
A．They are reluctant to give up their personal information．
B．They don't know their personal data enriches Facebook．
C．They don't identify themselves when using the website．
D．They care very little about their personal information．
68．Why does Senator Charles Schumer propose？C
A．Setting guidelines for advertising on websites．
B．Banning the sharing of users'personal information．
C．Working out regulations for social-networking sites．
D．Removing ads from all social-networking sites．
69．Why does the author plan to cancel his Facebook account？C
A．He is dissatisfied with its current service．
B．He finds many of its users untrustworthy．
C．He doesn't want his personal data to be used in a wrong way．
D．He is upset by its frequent rule changes．
