题型：不详难度：来源：
A teacher let her class play a game. The teacher told each child to bring a bag with some potatoes. Each potato would be given a name of a person that the child hated, so the number of potatoes in his/her bag would depend on the number of people the child hated. Some children had two potatoes, some had three and others had up to five potatoes. The teacher then told the children to carry the bag wherever they went for a week. After a week, the teacher asked, ”How did you feel?” The children started complaining about the unpleasant smell coming from the rotten potatoes when they had to carry the heavy and smelly potatoes everywhere they went.
Then the teacher said,” This is the same when you carry your hate for somebody inside your heart. The smell of hate will pollute your heart and you will carry it with you wherever you go. If you cannot bear the smell of rotten potatoes for just one week, can you imagine what it is like to have the smell of hate in your heart for your lifetime?”
小题1: Tom had two potatoes in his bag .It means he had ______ persons he didn’t like.小题2: In the game, the students should _________.| A．keep the bag of potatoes in the classroom | | B．carry the bag of potatoes everywhere they go | | C．leave the bag of potatoes at home | | D．count the bag of potatoes every day |

试题分析：本文叙述了一位老师让学生用土豆来代替所憎恨的人，憎恨几个人就在书包了带几个土豆，走到哪带到哪。一周后，学生抱怨腐烂的土豆气味。由此，老师教育学生腐烂的土豆气味，我们一周都忍受不了，那一辈子心里装着憎恨的气味会是什么样？
小题1:推理判断题。根据第一段的Each potato would be given a name of a person that the child hated, so the number of potatoes in his/her bag would depend on the number of people the child hated.可知孩子书包里土豆的数量是孩子讨厌的人数，因此包里有两个土豆，说明他有两个憎恨的人。故选A。
小题2:细节理解题。根据第一段的The teacher then told the children to carry the bag wherever they went for a week.可知教师要求学生走到哪，装有土豆的书包就带到哪。故选B。
小题3:词义猜测题。根据第一段的the unpleasant smell可知土豆的味道不好闻，因此此处是指土豆腐烂了。故选D。
小题4:推理判断题。根据最后一段的If you cannot bear the smell of rotten potatoes for just one week, can you imagine what it is like to have the smell of hate in your heart for your lifetime?”可知腐烂的土豆气味，我们一周都忍受不了，那一辈子心里装着憎恨的气味会是什么样？也就是说一辈子憎恨别人是不会让人快乐的。故选B。
小题5:标题归纳题。根据最后一段的The smell of hate will pollute your heart and you will carry it with you wherever you go.可知憎恨的气味污染着你的内心，让你不快乐，因此宽恕了别人也就宽恕了自己。故选D。 |

It"s very early in the morning and I"m sitting outside. It"s also very cold and dark. With me is Jim Nightingale, and he is the reason I"m up so early. He passes me a hot cup of coffee. "Not long to wait now," he says. I hope he"s right.
After a few minutes there is a very weak light in the east, and then I hear a bird singing. It sings very loud and very clear. "That"s the robin(知更鸟)," says Jim. A few more birds start singing with the robin and Jim knows the names of them too. Half an hour later, there are more and more birds singing, and it"s very loud! Suddenly, all around us the air is full of the sound of birdsong. This is the dawn chorus(晨鸣), and it"s beautiful.
"Wow, this is amazing!" I tell Jim, who is smiling. "Is there a dawn chorus every morning?"
"Birds can sing any time of the year but the best time is the end of winter and during the spring. This is when the birds sing most."
"Really? So, why do they sing?" I ask.
"Well, there are two reasons," explains Jim. "Most of the songbirds who sing are males. They want to find a female(雌性)so they sing to show how strong they are. The females listen and choose the best singer! The birds also sing to tell other males to go away. They need their own area; they don"t like sharing with another male."
I listen to the birds; the songs seem too much to me. "Do the birds sing a special song in the morning?"
"That"s a good question," replied Jim. "The successful birds have many kinds of calls and songs. Sometimes they copy the songs of other birds. This makes it sound like there are many birds in that place already and other males stay away. Also the female likes songs with different notes. Some birds, for example the European wren, have songs that contain over 700 different notes per minute!"
So, how does Jim know so much about birds? Well, he works as a volunteer for the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds. He is trying to help the birds live in the modern world. "More and more of the birds" habitat disappears every year. The sparrow, for example, was a very common bird in the UK, now it"s in danger."
By now the sun is up and the birds are quiet. It"s light so they can start looking for food, they need a big breakfast after all that singing.

Taking away a city"s rubbish is a big job. Every day trucks come into a city to collect it. Most rubbish is made up of things we can"t eat or use. If we kept these things we would soon have a mountain of rubbish.
In some cities the rubbish is collected and taken outside of city to a dump. Often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole. The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces and sent into the sewage system. The sewage system takes away the used water from toilets, bathtubs and other places.
To keep mice and flies away, some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish. Later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land. Finally, a house or a school may be built there, and then you"d never know that this had once been an old rubbish dump.
In other cities the rubbish is burnt in special places. The fire burns everything but the metal.
Sometimes the metal can be used again in factories where things are made of metal. The food parts of rubbish are put in special piles where they slowly change into something called humus, which looks like black earth. It is rich with the kinds of things that feed plants and help them grow.

My summer hols wr CWOT. B4, WE USED 2go 2 NY 2C my bro, his GF & thr 3 :-@ KIDS FTF. ILNY its gr8.
Can you understand this sentence? If you can"t, don"t feel too bad: neither could the middle school teacher in England who received this as homework. This is Netspeak: the language of computerized communication found on Internet or cellphones. To newcomers, it can look like a completely foreign language. So, what is the "translation" of the sentence above? My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three screaming kids face to face. I love New York; it ’s great.
Schoolteachers and parents say this new form of writing is harming(破坏)the English language. Increasing spelling and grammatical mistakes can be seen in students" writing. They fear the language could become corrupted(面目全非的).
Everyone should just relax, say linguists(语言学家)．They believe Netspeak is in fact more of a good thing. David Crystal, from the University of Wales, argues that Netspeak and Internet create a new language use and the almost lost art of diary writing has been picked up again. Geoffrey Nunberg, from Stanford University, agrees. "People get better at writing by writing," he says. "Kids who are now doing text messaging, e-mail, and instant messages will write at least as well as, and possibly better than, their parents."
Linguist James Milroy says, for centuries, it is believed without exception that young people are harming the language. And you can bet your bottom dollar that when today"s teenagers become tomorrow"s parents, they too will think this way. Milroy argues that languages do not and cannot become "corrupted"; they simply change to meet the new needs.
However, Netspeakers do agree that it is important to teach young people how to speak and write Standard English. Cynthia McVey says, "I can understand Netspeak worries teachers and it"s important that they get across to their pupils that text messaging is for fun, but that learning to write proper English is a must for their future."
Perhaps, we should give teenagers a little more trust anyway. Erin, age 12, says, "I wouldn"t use text language in my homework. Text is just for fun."
小题1:What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?| A．To give an example of foreign paragraph. | | B．To show an example of creative method. | | C．To express worries about using Netspeak. | | D．To lead in the topic of Netspeak. |
小题2:Which of the following is true according to the passage?| A．Cynthia McVry points out teenagers can deal with Netspeak properly. | | B．Geoffrey Nunberg believes Netspeakers can write Standard English. | | C．David Crystal thinks Netspeak helps develop the habit of writing. | | D．James Milroy says that language is changing and improving. |
小题3: The expression "bet your bottom dollar" in paragrap5 means_______.| A．be fairly sure | B．be greatly surprised | | C．think it a pity | D．find it interesting |
小题4:What can be the best title for the passage?| A．Netspeak: A Widely-Used Language on Internet | | B．Is Netspeak Harming the English Language? | | C．Is Netspeak Helpful in Language Learning? | | D．Netspeak: Advantages and Disadvantages |
