Hi Grace,

How’s it going? Sorry I haven’t emailed for a while, but I had so much to do!

I had told you about my decision to take up a sport. I knew I wasn’t fit and I wanted to get some exercise. But that wasn’t the only reason that I decided to do a sport. Students who play sports do better at school. 1. Exercise also helps learning and memory.

2. First, I tried soccer. I had played a bit of soccer before and I thought it wouldn’t be too bad. I knew I couldn’t run for very long without feeling tired. On the first day, I was able to run for the first ten minutes, but then I was so tired that I couldn’t even kick the ball!

Then, I tried volleyball. 3. I was able to run for the first twenty minutes and I wasn’t the slowest runner in the team! After a few weeks, I could run faster and longer. I was doing better and feeling better. 4. Maybe I’m not a team sport person after all!

Finally, I tried Kung fu. It’s a great sport that exercise the body and the mind. You learn to follow instructions carefully and do what you are asked to do. This is the right sport for me! 5. I feel so confident that I even showed some moves to the class last week! Can you believe it?

I hope you’re OK! Write and let me know what you’ve been doing!

Bye for now!

Kristie

After spending a year in Brazil on a student exchange program, her mother recalled(回憶), Marie Colvin returned home to find that her classmates had narrowed down their college choices. “Everyone else was already admitted to college,” her mother, Rosemarie Colvin, said from the family home. “So she took our car and drove up to Yale and said, ‘You have to let me in .’ ”

“Impressed--she was a National Merit (全國英才) finalist who had picked up Portuguese in Brazil. Yale did, admitting her to the class of 1978, where she started writing for the Yale Daily News and decided to be a journalist,” her mother said.

On Wednesday, Marie Colvin, 56, an experienced journalist for The Sunday Times of London, was killed as Syrian forces shelled(炮擊) the city of Homs. She was working in a temporary media center that was destroyed in the attack.

“She was supposed to leave Syria on Wednesday”, Mrs. Colvin said. “Her editor told me he called her yesterday and said it was getting too dangerous and they wanted to take her out. She said she was doing a story and she wanted to finish it.”

Mrs. Colvin said it was pointless to try to prevent her daughter from going to conflict (沖突)zones. “If you knew my daughter,” she said, “it would have been such a waste of words. She was determined, she was enthusiastic about what she did, it was her life. There was no saying ‘Don’t do this.’ This is who she was, absolutely who she was and what she believed in: cover the story, not just have pictures of it, but bring it to life in the deepest way you could.” “So it was not a surprise when she took an interest in journalism,” her mother said.

1.From the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1, we can infer that ________ .

A. Yale was her last choice

B. Marie Colvin was confident of herself

C. Yale must keep its promise to Marie Colvin

D. Marie Colvin was good at persuading

2.Which of the following is the correct order to describe Marie Colvin’s life ?

a. She was doing a story in Syria and got killed.

b. She was admitted to Yale University.

c. She studied in Brazil as an excellent student.

d. She was hired by The Sunday Times of London.

e. She began to take an interest in journalism.

A. d→e→c→a→b B. b→c→d→e→a

C. e→d→c→b→a D. c→b→e→d→a

3.From the last paragraph, we can know that Mrs. Colvin ________.

A. dislikes the choice of her daughter

B. cares little about her daughter

C. knows her daughter very well

D. doesn’t fully appreciate her daughter

4.What can be the best title of the text?

A. Covering Stories in a Dangerous Conflict Area.

B. Applying for Top Universities, a Successful Case

C. Choosing Lifelong Careers Based on Your Own Interest.

D. Recalling Her Daughter, a Journalist Killed in Syria.

You either have it, or you don’t — a sense of direction, that is.But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street?

Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works.One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it.Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don’t use it, we 1ose it.

“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around, ’’ says Jim Martland, research director of the project.“However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.’’

Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction.He makes the following suggestions:

1.If you are using a map, turn it so it relates to the way you are facing.

2.If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree—something easy to recognize.Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike.When you return, go back along the same route.

3.Simplify the way for finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you.Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where yon are.

Now you will never get lost again!

1.Scientists have the belief that__________.

A.some people have a sense of direction when they are born

B.a(chǎn) sense of direction is developed with ages

C.people have their sense of direction all their life

D.everybody has a sense of direction from birth

2.What is true about 7-year-old children according to the passage?

A.Their sense of direction does not work without maps.

B.They should be allowed indoors if they lack(缺乏)a sense of direction.

C.They have the ability to find their way around

D.They can develop a good sense of direction if they are driven around in a car.

3.If you leave your bike in a strange place, you should___________.

A.plant a tree beside the bike so that you can know where the bike is

B.on the map mark where the bike is

C.find the stone which is beside the bike

D.remember something easily recognizable on the route

4.According to the passage, the best way to find your way around is to___________.

A. take a bike as a landmark

B. use walls, streams, and streets to guide yourself

C. remember your route by asking a policeman for help

D. remember the number of landmarks that you see

B

I had worried myself sick over Simon’s mother coming to see me. I was a new teacher, and I gave an honest account of the students’ work. In Simon’s case, the grades were awfully low. He couldn’t read his own handwriting. But he was a bright student. He discussed adult subjects with nearly adult comprehension. His work in no way reflected his abilities.

So when Simon’s mother entered the room, my palms (手掌心) were sweating. I was completely unprepared for her kisses on both my cheeks. “I came to thank you,” she said, surprising me beyond speech. Because of me, Simon had become a different person. He talked of how he loved me, he had begun to make friends, and for the first time in his twelve years, he had recently spent an afternoon at a friend’s house. She wanted to tell me how grateful she was for the self-respect I had developed in her son. She kissed me again and left.

I sat, stunned, for about half an hour, wondering what had just happened. How did I make such a life­ changing difference to that boy without even knowing it?What I finally came to remember was one day, several months before, when some students were giving reports in the front of the class, Jeanne spoke quietly, and to encourage her to raise her voice, I had said, “Speak up. Simon’s the expert on this. He is the only one you have to convince, and he can’t hear you in the back of the room.” That was it. From that day on, Simon had sat up straighter, paid more attention, smiled more, and became happy. And it was all because he happened to be the last kid in the last row. The boy who most needed praise was the one who took the last seat that day.

It taught me the most valuable lesson over the years of my teaching career, and I’m thankful that it came early and positively. A small kindness can indeed make a difference.

1.We can infer that when Simon’s mother entered the room, the writer felt ______.

A. satisfied B. nervous C. happy D. surprised

2. The following words can be used to describe Simon before he met the writer except ______.

A. unconfident B. lonely C. outgoing D. clever

3.What the teacher said in paragraph 3 is intended to ______.

A. encourage Jeanne to speak louder

B. encourage Simon to work hard

C. ask Jeanne to convince Simon

D. tell the students that Simon was expert on that

4.The purpose of the passage is to ______.

A. tell the story of Simon

B. tell teachers how to be kind to students

C. advise the readers to be kind to others

D. share a valuable lesson with readers

科目:高中英語 來源:2015-2016學年甘肅天水一中高一上期第二學段段中考試英語卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

閱讀理解。

There are many older people in the world and there will be many more. A little­known fact is that over 60 percent of the older people live in developing countries. According to the World Health Organization,by 2020 there will be 1 billion,with over 700 million living in developing countries.

It is a surprising fact that the population ageing is particularly rapid in developing countries. For example,it took France 115 years for the proportion of older people to double from 7 percent to 14 percent. It is estimated(估計) to take China a mere 27 years to achieve this same increase.

What are the implications(暗指) of these increased numbers of older folk?One of the biggest worries for governments is that the longer people live,the more likelihood there is for diseases and for disability. Attention is being paid to the need to keep people as healthy as possible,including during old age,to lessen the financial burden on the state.

Another significant problem is the need for the younger generations to understand and value the older people in their society. In some African countries,certainly in Asia,older people are respected and regarded as the ones with special knowledge. Yet traditions are fading away daily,which does not ensure the continued high regard of older people. As society changes, attitudes will change.

Much needs to be done to get rid of age discrimination (歧視) in employment. Life­long learning programs need to be provided to enable older people to be active members in a country’s development.

Social security policies need to be established to provide adequate income protection for older people. Both public and private schemes are vital in order to build a suitable safety net.

To achieve equality in such matters will take considerable time and effort. One thing is sure:there is no time to be lost.

1.The proportion(比例)of older people________.

A. is bigger in developed countries than in developing countries

B. is one seventh of the population in developing countries

C. will increase much faster in China than in France

D. will be sixty percent in developing countries by 2020

2.According to the passage,which of the following are governments most worried about?

A. The diseases and disability of older people.

B. The longer life and good health of people.

C. The loss of taxes on older people.

D. The increasing respect for older people.

3.Which of the following measures is NOT mentioned to solve the population ageing problem?

A. Getting rid of age discrimination in employment.

B. Ensuring adequate income protection for older people.

C. Providing free health care for sick older people.

D. Supplying life­long learning programs to older people.

4.The author concludes in the last paragraph that________.

A. governments have spent lots of time in solving the ageing problem

B. population ageing is a hard problem,but it needs to be solved urgently

C. people are too busy to solve the population ageing problem

D. much time and effort will be lost in solving the ageing problem
