【題目】America’s Beauty Is in Its Diversity

America is built on the idea of freedom, and there is no exception for Muslim women. I the freedom of religion and speech. But mostly, I believe it’s OK to be , and to stand up for who and what you are. So I believe in wearing the hijab.

The hijab is a religious head covering, like a scarf. I am Muslim, and keeping my head covered is a of maturity（成熟）and respect toward my and to Allah’s will. , I also like to wear it to be different. I don’t usually like to do what everyone else is doing. I want to be a(n) , not just part of the crowd. But when I first wore it, I was also afraid of the that I’d get at school.

I on my own that sixth grade was the I should start wearing the hijab. I was about what the kids would say or even do to me. I thought they might make fun of me, or be scared of me and my headscarf. Kids at that age usually like to be all the same, and there’s little or no of differences.

On the first day of school, I put all those thoughts behind my back and walked in with my head held high. I was holding my breath a little, but I was also proud to be a Muslim, proud to be wearing the hijab, proud to be different.

I was about everything I had thought the kids would say or even do to me. I actually met a lot of people because of wearing my head covering. Most of the kids would come and ask me questions — — about the hijab and why I wore it.

I did hear some kids were making fun of me, there was one girl----she wasn’t even in my class, and we never really talked much---and she spoke me, and I wasn’t even there! I made a lot of new friends that year, friends that I still have until this very day, five years later.

Yes, I’m different, but everyone is different here, in one way or another. This is the of America.

【題目】【原創(chuàng)】The first theories and experiments with cloning began in the late 1880s as scientist sought to prove their theories about how the genetic material inside cells worked. Discoveries about the nature of DNA in the 1940s made it possible for cloning experiments to progress. In 1944 it was discovered that genetic information for each cell was kept in the cell’s DNA. When Oswald Avery found this genetic information, it gave scientists new ways to try to clone animals by using that genetic blueprint（生物細(xì)胞的模型）.

The first cloned animals were northern leopard frogs that were cloned by Thomas J. King and Robert Briggs in 1952. King and Briggs believed, based on their clones, that young cells were more practical for the cloning process. Cells that were taken from adults resulted in abnormally developed tadpoles(蝌蚪). The next successful cloning experiments also resulted in cloned frogs. John Gurdon cloned South African frogs in 1962. His use of adult cells disproved the previous theory that only young cells could be used in the cloning process with success.

While animal cloning had been the focus of cloning experiments, the 1960s also saw other types of cloning. In 1964, F. C. Steward took an adult root cell from a carrot plant and successfully cloned the plant. Throughout the rest of the 1960s, scientists continued to clone frogs and to discover more about DNA. The first gene was discovered in 1969.

In 1977, the first cloned mice embryos were created. The first mammal was cloned in 1984. The cloned sheep was quickly followed in 1985 with cloned cattle embryos. A cow clone was created in 1986 and several calves in 1993. That same year, human embryos were cloned for the first time. In 1995 and 1996, sheep were cloned, including the famous Dolly.

【1】The first paragraph serves as a(n) __________________________.

A. explanation B. conclusion

C. comment D. background

【2】When as the first plant successfully cloned?

A. In 1952 B. In 1960

C. In 1964 D. In1969

【3】How is the passage organized?

A. In order of frequency

B. In order of time

C. In order of importance

【題目】Exhausted，covered in mud and desperately hungry，a team of Swedish athletes sat down for a meal as they prepared to take on a dangerous 20-mile trek through the Ecuadorian rainforest．

As they opened their canned meat，a tired Mikael Lindnord noticed a miserable stray dog staring at him out of the corner of his eye．

Feeling sorry for him，he fed the dog a meatball and thought nothing of it，but as the team stood up to continue their race the animal started to follow them—and he didn’t stop．

As the group of four navigated the final two stages of the 430-mile Adventure Racing World Championship，the dog befriended them and was eventually given the name Arthur．

Every tiring task the team face，Arthur would do the same．He swam alongside them while they kayaked down rivers，dragged himself up hills during hikes and pulled through knee—deep mud during treks．

Even when the team tried to get rid of their new member out of concerns for his safety—he refused to leave．This meant when he was tired they stopped for a break and when he got stuck in the mud they pulled him out．

After six days the team finished the race，and the dog had suffered．They therefore decided to take him to a vet(獸醫(yī))while still in South America to have him checked out．

During that time Lindord thought to himself that after their experience，they could not leave Arthur，so he decided to adopt him and take him back to Sweden．He applied to the Swedish Board of Agriculture and was made to wait to see if his application was successful．After a tense few days，the team arrived at the airport with Arthur and boarded the plane with him back home．

Lindord said：“I came to Ecuador to win the World Championship．Instead，I got a new friend．”

【題目】E

It was a warm April day when a big fat envelope came in the mail from the only college I had ever imagined attending. I tore open the packet. My eyes were fixed on the word “congratulations. ”I don’t remember ever smiling so wide.

Then I looked at my financial package.

The cost of Dream School’s tuition , room and board was around $ 40,000- an impossible sum! How could I afford to attend? What good reasons did I have to go there when three other fine colleges were offering me free tuition? My other choices were good, solid schools even if they weren’t as famous as my first choice.

In my mind, attending my dream university would be the only way to realize my dream of becoming a world-class writer. My parents understood how I felt. They told me that even though it would be a financial problem, I could go wherever I would be happiest. But as I was always careful with money, I wasn’t sure what to do.

One of the schools that offered me a full ride had an informational dinner one night in the spring. Considering my parents’ financial difficulties, I decided to drive the 45 minutes and attend. At first, all I had planned to do was smile politely, eat free food, listen quietly. But I surprised myself.

At dinner the president of the university talked about the wonderful activities on campus including guest lectures and social gatherings. He also made it perfectly clear that free food would be offered at all future events. He continued with explanations of professors, class sizes, activities, and sporting events on campus. As he spoke, I began to realize that this school, though not as good as my first choice, might be the best one for me. It seemed small yet with many great programs. It seemed challenging yet caring.

As the president ended his speech, we clapped politely and pushed back our chairs. As I walked out that door, a feeling of comfort washed over me. Looking at the campus that night, I realized that I would be spending the next four years right there.

In all honesty, my university is not as well-known as my “dream”university. However, it turned out to be the right choice of schools for me.

【1】What can we learn from the first paragragh?

A．The writer only applied to one college.

B．The writer was admitted to his dream college.

C．The writer decided to attend his dream college.

D．The writer was uncertain which school to go to.

【2】We can learn from the passage that the writer was_________.

A．honest B．mean C． smart D．selfish

【3】The college chosen by the writer has the following advantages except that____________.

A．it would charge me nothing for tuition

B．it is as famous as his first choice

C．there are all kinds of wonderful activities.

D．it would offer free meals at all events

【4】What message does the author want to convey?

A．You should consider comfort in your choice of schools.

B．You should try your best to attend your dream school.

C．Your choice of schools should be based on their fame.

D． Your second-choice college may actually by your best fit.

【題目】February has long been a month of romance. With the sweet smell of roses in the air, romantic films hit cinemas and love stories fill newspapers and magazines.

On the 14th day, it is a custom for a boy to take his girlfriend out to dinner, buy her flowers and chocolates, write poems, sing to her or even spell out her name with rose petals! This is what you see on Valentines Day, a day named after Valentine who was a priest in the third century Rome. When the emperor decided that single men could become better soldiers than those with wives, he didnt allow marriage.

But Valentine continued to perform marriage ceremonies for young lovers secretly. When his actions were discovered, the emperor sentenced him to death. While in prison, it is said that Valentine fell in love with the daughter of his prison guard. Before his death, he wrote her a letter, which he signed From your Valentine, an expression that is still in use today. Valentine died for what he believed in and so he was made a Saint (圣徒), as well as becoming one of history’s most romantic characters.

Nowadays, Valentine’s Day is also popular among Chinese young people. Some students are planning to make Valentine’s cards for parents, teachers and friends.
