1、阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

Studying at a girl’s school, we seldom see boys. But in September, we got a chance to dance and talk with boys. In the morning, all of the girls discussed this activity.

But when the boys came, we stopped immediately. After a welcome speech, the first activity took place: find a boy partner and learn five things about each other. 1. At first, the situation was so embarrassing that nobody moved. Gradually, some people started talking. “Would you like to be my partner?” the boy next to me said. “Sure,” I replied. We stood together and asked each other questions like “what’s your name?” After we took the first step, the rest was easier. 2. 让我惊讶的是，我们有许多共同点。We both like British singer Ed Sheeran. Also, English is our favorite subject. The most exciting part is dancing. The teacher taught boys and girls separately (分别). We all smiled and studied hard. 3. The lesson didn’t last long, as we had to practice with our partners. I felt my heart beating so fast. 4. 老实说，这是我第一次握一个男孩的手。I made many mistakes even with the simplest steps, but my partner never blamed (责怪) me. My palms (手心) got sweaty (出汗的). My partner said, “Don’t be nervous. I will lead you.” His palms were big and warm. I began to calm down and enjoy dancing. 5. At the dance, we built good relationships with the boys and our teachers encouraged us to do so. I really like this type of activity.

24、My mother says my head is too expensive, because all my operations have cost millions of dollars.

I am sick with hydrocephalus. That means “water in the head”. Water runs through the body like a river, but sometimes it won’t leave my head. That water gives me bad headaches and lots of other problems. So, doctors put a small tube in me to take away that water from my head.

I stay in the hospital most of the time. Sometimes the doctors let me go out to play. But sometimes, if I play too much, my tube has problems. I have to go back to the hospital.

My doctor, Dr.Beck, is the greatest. He takes good care of me, too. My illness is hard to understand, but Dr.Beck always takes time to teach me about it by drawing pictures or telling stories. I draw cartoons for him, to make him laugh when he gets tired.

When I grow up, I dream of becoming a doctor so that I can take care of kids like me. I have been in the hospital a lot, and my mum is a nurse, so I have learned a lot by watching and asking questions.

When I’m a doctor, I’ll tell sick kids my story to make them feel better when they’re afraid.

【1】The best title of this reading is ________.

A．Where I Spend the Time

A．because my mother is a nurse in the hospital

B．so I know something about how to look after the sick people

C．but I have no chance to meet other doctors

D．and I don’t have to pay for anything here

【4】From the reading we know that ________.

A．Dr.Beck is very good at drawing cartoons

B．the sick child has many funny stories of doctors

C．hydrocephalus can also cause some other problems

D．nobody can understand the illness well

25、To learn anything faster, just remember FAST!

The F in FAST stands for Forget.

If you want to speed up your brain, forget three things.

Forget what you already know about the subject. Your mind only works when it’s open.

Forget about anything that’s not urgent（紧急的）and important. If your brain is thinking about four different things, you’re not fully present—so you won’t learn quickly.

Forget your weakness in learning. Throw your thoughts like your memory isn’t good, or you’re a slow reader. Your memory isn’t fixed, and it is possible to remember more.

The A in FAST stands for ▲ .

In school, you learn by being active and creating information. Learning is not just watching and listening. You need to think hard, ask questions and take notes. The more active you are, the more you will learn.

The S in FAST stands for State.

Your state is the condition of your mind and body in that exact moment. All learning depends on your state. Many people don’t remember well at school because they are in a state of being bored. So choose to learn with joy, interest, and curiosity（好奇心）.

The T in FAST stands for Teach.

If you want to learn better, try teaching it to somebody else.

If you have to give a talk on what you’re learning today, you would learn it differently. You would pay closer attention, take more careful notes and ask better questions. When you teach something, you get to learn it twice. If you can’t do something, you can teach it, and then you can do it.

【1】How many ways of fast-learning are mentioned in the passage?

A．Two.

B．Three.

C．Four.

D．Five.

【2】Which of the following can be put in “ ▲ ”?

A．Action

B．Active

C．Accept

D．Advice

【3】Which of the following shows the meaning of Teach in learning?

A．Asking somebody for help.

B．Studying together with others.

C．Remembering what you have learnt.

D．Telling somebody how you learn it.

【4】The best title for the passage can be ________.

A．To Learn Faster

B．To Teach Better

C．To Be More Careful

D．To Remember More

26、Each country and culture has its own set of public holidays and festivals. While some of these holidays and festivals like Christmas and New Year are common across the world, there are many more holidays that are unknown outside of national borders (边界).

【1】How do people celebrate Blessed Rainy Day?

A．By taking a shower in the bathroom.

27、阅读短文，从下面所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。

Chinese people often say “wufu linmen”, or “The five blessings (祝福) have descended (降落) upon the house”. 【1】 The “five blessings”, or wufu, come from The Book of Documents (《尚书》). The first blessing is a long life. The second is wealth. 【2】 The fourth is love of virtue (美德). And the last one is a peaceful death. Chinese artists have long used five bats to stand for the five blessings. Why? 【3】

The character fu means blessings, happiness and good luck in Chinese. It appears in all kinds of things such as paper-cuts and posters. This shows Chinese people’s wishes for happiness and good luck. For example, people paste (贴) the fu character on doors and walls during the Spring Festival. 【4】 The Chinese words for “upside-down” and “to arrive” are both pronounced “dao”. So the phrase “fu upside-down” sounds nearly the same as the phrase “good luck arrives”.

A．The third is health.

B．What is the third one?

C．What are the “five blessings”?

D．Because bianfu, the Chinese name for bats, includes fu.

E．Often, people paste it upside down.

28、阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容及首字母提示，在短文空白处填入一个恰当的词，使短文内容完整、通顺。

In the past ten years, many scientists have studied the differences between men and women. And they all got the s【1】 answer: The sexes (性别) are different, b【2】 their brains are different. And this, the scientists say, makes men and women see the world in d【3】 ways.

Boys, for example, generally are better than girls at mathematical ideas. Boys also generally are better than girls at the kind of hand and eye movements necessary for ball sports. Girls, on the other hand generally start speaking e【4】 than boys. And they generally see better in the dark than boys and are better at learning f【5】 languages.

What m【6】 men and women better at one thing or another? The answer is the brain. The brain has two sides connected by nerve(神经) tracks. The left side generally is used for mathematics, speech and w【7】. The right side is used for artistic creation and the e【8】 for emotions. In men and women, different areas in each side of the brain d【9】 differently. In boys, for example, it’s the area used for mathematics. In girls, it is the area used for language skills. Another interesting difference is that the two sides of a man’s brain are c【10】 by smaller nerves than the two sides of a woman’s brain are.
