Many TV programs seem to be quite realistic. One who watches TV often feels that 1 happened
in the film may as well happen to him. With only a little 2 , every man in the street may turn 3 to be a thief, or a spy or a murderer.
Jane had been watching a spy film at a friend"s home, in which a young girl had been 4 and
murdered, so she felt a little frightened. She took a train back to the centre of the city. There were a lot of people 5 with her, so she felt much safer.
A man sat behind her, reading a newspaper. She thought nothing of it 6 she saw him staring at her. Remembering the film and feeling 7 , she got off the train and went to the bus stop. When the man got on the same bus as she did, she realized he was following her. When she got off the bus, she was getting
more and more scared as the street almost became 8 . She walked as quickly as she could. She
could hear footsteps behind her, but she didn"t dare to look back over her 9 . It seemed to have
been hours before she 10 the front door. She felt for her keys, but was 11 to find them. The
footsteps
stopped behind her. She felt a hand on her shoulder. 12 of feeling hands round her neck, however,
she heard a pleasant voice: "I apologize if I frightened you. I thought I 13 you on the train, but I was
not sure. I am Michael, are you Jane? We have studied in the same junior school. And I 14 this up on the train. I think it might be yours." The man handed a key to her. "Yes, it is mine. Thanks!" She accepted
it and said good bye to him. 15 in the bed, Jane was awake thinking what happened today. "It is so
terrifying, surprising though." |

The Internet has become part of teenage life.
A new report on 3,375 students aged from 10 to 18 in seven Chinese cities found that 38 percent of
them believe they use the Internet often.
While most of them get useful information and use the Internet to help in their studies, some are not
using it in a good way.
In order to help young people use the Internet in a good way, a textbook on good Internet behaviour has started to be used in some Shanghai middle schools this term. The book uses real examples to
teach students all about good ways of using the Internet. The book gives useful advice such as it"s good
to read news or find helpful information to study.
Some students also make online friends. But if you are meeting a friend offline, make sure your parents know. Teachers and parents all think the book is of great help. A teacher said the book would be a guide
for teens using the Internet. She believes it will keep students away from bad sites. "Many students are
using the Internet without guidance from their parents," she said. "The book will teach students how to be
a good person in the online world." |

I find some of the ways in which Chinese parents show love for their children rather surprising.
Obviously there are some pretty big differences between our behaviors and theirs in this respect. Most
Chinese children seem to get whatever they want, from ice creams, sweets and toys to endless attention
from the adults around them. Is this a sort of spoiling or love? I wonder.
Most westerners would think it is a sort of spoiling rather than love. We think love means educating
your children and bringing them up to lead an independent life. That includes learning to accept the fact
that he can"t get everything he wants. As an adult, he will not always get the quite expensive car he hunts
for; she will not always manage to acquire the beautiful dress she longs for. So we try to teach our
children early to cope with the disappointment of not getting what they want.
I find too much such kind of love for the children can actually spoil them. To my surprise, it seems that
the life of a Chinese child is rather hard. Without doubt, the child is the very center of a whole circle of
adults, but on the other hand he or she is also expected to start studying according to adults" wishes.
Many children of my son"s age take piano lessons, painting classes and even English lessons. It looks as
if Chinese adults think that just playing without learning anything is a waste of time. So in this respect our
children appear spoiled, just because they are allowed to play. But without this sort of play how can
western children develop such free and rich imaginations? In fact the connection between this imagination
and the creativity is so important in the children"s future life. |
| 1. In which way do most Chinese children seem to be spoiled? |
A. They can be supported by their parents
B. They can play whenever they want
C. They need not behave themselves
D. Their demand can always be satisfied |
| 2. In the author"s opinion, the life of a Chinese child is . |
A. rather hard
B. rather easy
C. independent
D. colorful |
| 3. The author thinks western children appear spoiled because . |
A. they can manage time by themselves
B. they can have the freedom to play
C. they can take piano lessons
D. they may have expensive toys |
| 4. The best title of the passage could be . |
A. Chinese children"s early education
B. How to develop kids" imagination
C. What is the real love for children
D. The imagination and creativity |
Learning science in the classroom by reading textbooks can be really difficult and boring. 1
You can learn science with games and experiments.
Play a game with friends to see whose balloon(气球)will stick to the wall for the longest period of time
before falling to the floor. 2 This static electricity is generated by rubbing a balloon against your
clothing. It becomes a lot of fun when you are competing against several other people to see whose
balloon sticks the longest.
3 Closing your eyes and try to see if you can recognize juices, fruits and vegetables. This
experiment becomes a real challenge when you are competing against others to see if you can do better
than them.
Parents and teachers are always looking for ways to keep children away from the TV set. 4
And children will learn a scientific fact in each game.
A teacher said, " I wish all of my students would participate in these contests with their friends. They
really enjoy the challenge and they all seem to learn so much quickly and easily. " A parent said," I can
feel the excitement every time they play these games. 5 ."
A. But it doesn"t have to be that way.
B. However, it"s more import to keep safe.
C. You can learn about your sense of touch, taste and smell.
D. Through this you can learn the science of static electricity(静电).
E. Therse"re a lot more ways for students to learn about science.
F. They are happy and at the same time they learn a lot about science.
G. These experiments and challenges are much more fun than anything on TV. | | 完形填空 | "Imagine you are walking along the road. Suddenly you fall over and all the passers-by burst into
laughter. You feel very 1 and think the world is laughing at you. But in fact, five minutes later, they
have 2 it ever happened." The other day when I came across these words in an article, I didn"t agree
with the 3 .
The author thinks the best thing to do in this kind of 4 is to pretend nothing has happened, and so
avoid 5 trouble.
I admit that we should keep 6 because "Your tears will only remind others of what happened,
while your 7 can let them forget it." But this is far from satisfactory. We should do 8 to make things
better.
I used to be a(n) 9 girl and not very good at maths. Our new maths teacher asked me a question
and I still remember how I hung my head in 10 when I couldn"t answer it.
"If you don"t know the answer, just tell me." the teacher said, "If you don"t, how can I know 11 you
know the answer or not?" All of my classmates burst into laughter. My face turned red but the teacher
12 me to go to the blackboard and 13 what I knew. If I had 14 the words in the article, I would
have given up. But I tried my best. And to everyone"s 15 , I succeeded! The teacher smiled and said,
"Well done! I 16 you could do it!"
Since then, I have become active in maths as 17 as in other subjects. I used to think
doing maths exercises was a waste of time. But now, I know 18 I do can make things better.

D. response | | 阅读理解 | Even with hit shows such as "Desperate Housewives" and "Grey"s Anatomy," ABC is tightening its
belt as it weathers the U.S. economic downturn and tries to remain relevant in an industry challenged by
digital entertainment.
"We are in one of worst economies in 70 years. We are looking at everything we can possibly do to
be more efficient and more effective," ABC Entertainment president Steve McPherson told reporters on
Friday.
"We have to look at everything across the board from cost cutting to (using) other platforms for
smart ways to broker our efforts. It is an ongoing process. It is not a one time thing."
McPherson, attending the networks" semi-annual presentation to critics, said last year"s five month
strike by Hollywood screenwriters had "really hurt everybody" in the traditional television industry, and
he acknowledged the networks had lost viewers to other forms of entertainment.
"The world has changed under these businesses and we need to be incredibly diligent and confident
in what we do, otherwise we will be left by the wayside." he said. "Tomorrow is here, now, and we really
need to figure it out now and move forward."
ABC, a unit of Walt Disney Co, has lost about 9.7 percent of its prime time audience in the 2008-9
season compared with the same stage last year.
With the exception of current ratings leader CBS, the other two major U.S. networks Fox and NBC
have also lost similar percentages since the 2008-9 season started last September.
McPherson said he hoped ABC would continue to "take chances" on shows such as "Lost" and
"Dancing with the Stars" that were seen as daring when they were shown for the first time. But recent
new entries, such as "Pushing Daisies," "Eli Stone" and "Dirty Sexy Money," failed to resonate with
viewers and were canceled.
Despite the growing trend of watching television on iPods, on the Internet and on mobile phones,
McPherson said ABC"s main focus remained on broadcast.
"We are still a broadcast network and that is where our profits come from. The other platforms are
important. But people ask "Would we do a show that would be successful on the Internet as opposed
to on broadcast? ... and those are always secondary thoughts," he added.
1. The main idea of the passage is about__________.
A. the strike of Hollywood screenwriters
B. the decline of ABC"s prime time audience
C. ABC"s feeling economic, digital pressure
D. ABC"s main focus on broadcast
2. The 3rd paragraph suggests to us that__________.
A. cutting cost is the best way to recover from economic downturn
B. the economic situation is so serious that it will last long
C. using other smart way can develop the ongoing process
D. sparing no effort can complete the ongoing process
3 .McPherson"s attitude towards ABC"s future is full of__________.
A. doubt
B. confidence
C. worry
