24、

An unusual school, Notch Peak Elementary, has just one student and only one teacher. The only student is Corinne Gaby. Her teacher is Lisa Geary. Corrine has no brothers or sisters and lives with her parents on a large farm in a mountainous area.

The school is based on the idea that every child has the right to a public education-no matter where that child lives. But the closest public school is at least a one-and-a-half hour drive away. And that road is not considered safely passable during the winter.

A new, separate school was not built. Instead, a classroom area was created on the second floor of a horse barn (马厩). Large windows keep the room bright, and a wood stove provides heat.

Several teachers were considered for this unusual teaching situation. The first lasted a year. The next left after two. Then came Lisa Geary. She says her first year was “harder than expected.” She faced lonely surroundings and severe weather.

“It wasn't easy in the beginning Corinne was strong-headed, and it was tough.” Geary said she became discouraged with their lack of progress .At first, she said it seemed like Corinne did not want to be taught. “We really, really struggled that first year, so it wasn't fun for me as a teacher who is waiting for her cup to be fled up.” Corinne agrees that the start of teaching was difficult.

But over time, Corinne said Geary's teaching methods changed her mind about the unusual one-on-one learning situation. “Now in fifth grade and fourth grade, Ms. Geary and I have seen lots of changes in ourselves.” Corinne says Geary's teaching has taught her far more than just what happens in the classroom.

Geary adds that in every teaching situation, the relationship between teacher and student is very important. She says that her relationship with Corinne is now so close, the two are like family.

Corinne agrees that the two have a much deeper connection than most students and teachers. She describes Geary as the “greatest teacher in the galaxy.”

The two also spend a lot of time together outside the classroom. Sometimes Corinne even gets to sleep over at her teacher's house, and they both love taking care of the animals on the farm.

【1】Geary said her first year was “harder than expected” because________.

A.she had to drive at least one and a half hours to get back home

B.Corinne's parents didn't like the teacher and her teaching ways

C.the life was poor in the cold weather and there was little progress in Corinne's study

D.Corinne wasn't willing to be taught by Geary and didn't like to have lessons at home

【2】Which of the following about Lisa Geary can be inferred from the passage?

A.She got on well with Corinne at first.

B.She changed Corinne a lot but little in herself.

C.Teaching in Notch Peak Elementary is her first job.

D.Geary's teaching methods finally changed Corinne.

【3】How does Corinne's feeling change to Geary?

A.Excited-happy. B.Afraid-glad. C.Difficult- close. D.Strange-satisfied.

【4】Choose a sentence by Corinne that best describes Geary as the “greatest teacher in the galaxy”.

A.“We are living together. We're just a family.”

B.“She is the teacher who is waiting to fill me up.”

C.“She gives me chances and she really believes in me.”

D.“It is she who has spent almost three years with me in the horse barn.”

25、   When the bell rings at 9 o’clock, He Yue, 18, and a group of other students from Jiangsu Xishan Senior High School, crowd into the student community. They quickly put on their work uniforms and act as various workers. They could be a banker, a postman, a radio host or even a leader.

This is part of a project to create a simulated(模拟的) city run by students. Since last year, He Yue has been serving as an office worker for the student bank named K-bank. Unlike other students, she has a busy “job” during the 40-minute break: help prepare for change, fill in forms and record every business. Sometimes, when a great deal of cash such as class funds and money from the student supermarket is “stored”, she needs to count it carefully and report the deal result in time.

Besides that, they also offer students free-interest funds and provide safe money-stored boxes. If students want to start business like designing bookmarks but have no money to buy materials, they can come here to loan. “The number of business is nearly 20,000 yuan a year,” said He. “With so much money, I’ve gradually learned to be more careful and thoughtful.”

He is not the only one serving the school. Also, some students serve the food test center and other parts of the project including cultural and creative product community, radio stations, roasts....All of these come from real life experiences. “Educators must realize that the top goal of education is not just about scoring good grades, but improving useful skills that would allow students to lead a good life, said Tang Jiangpeng, headmaster of Jiangsu Xishan High School.

26、Vanuatu is an island nation in the South Pacific. It is one of the smallest countries in the world. But for those who are interested in adventure and sport, there is a lot to do. Vanuatu’s islands offer visitors two of the most exciting and dangerous activities in the world: volcano (火山) surfing and land diving.

Volcano Surfing

On Tanna Island, Mount Yasur rises 300 meters into the sky. Yasur is an active volcano, and it erupts (爆发) almost every day, sometimes several times a day. For centuries, people have climbed this mountain to visit the top. Recently, people have also started climbing Yasur to surf the volcano. In some ways, volcano surfing is like surfing in the sea, but in other ways, it’s very different. Volcano surfers try to escape the erupting volcano—without getting hit by flying rocks! It’s fast, fun and dangerous—the perfect extreme sport (极限运动).

Land Diving

Most people are familiar with bungee jumping, but do you know bungee jumping started on Pentecost Island in Vanuatu and is almost fifteen centuries old? The activity, first called land diving, is part of a religious ceremony (宗教仪式). A man ties tree vines (树藤) to his legs. He then jumps head­first from a high tower to touch the earth with the top of his head—without breaking the vine. Every spring, island natives (men only) still take part in this amazing activity.

【1】What does the underlined word “those” mean?

A．People.

B．Animals.

28、阅读下面短文，根据语境、音标及所给单词的提示，在每个空格内填入一个恰当的词，要求所填的词意义准确、形式正确，使短文意思完整、行文连贯。

The world’s longest cross-sea bridge, the 55-km-long Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge(HZMB), opened 【1】Oct 24.The Guardian described it as one of the “seven 【2】 (wonder) of the modern world”.

The project of the HZMB began in 2009 and 【3】/k?st/ about 120 billion yuan. The bridge connects Hong Kong and Macao to Zhuhai.

The HZMB is special in many ways. It is 【4】(design) to have a service life of 120 years,20 years longer than most bridges.

And it’s not just a bridge. In one section, 【5】bridge turns into a 6.7-km undersea tunnel (隧道) that

passes through two man-made islands. The tunnel is the longest undersea tunnel for road traffic in the world, allowing large ships to 【6】/k?n’t?nju/ passing through the sea area above the tunnel.

The bridge’s engineers had to consider many things 【7】avoid affecting the environment while building the bridge.

The HZMB will make it much 【8】(fast) to travel between the three areas it connects. It took four hours to travel from Hong Kong to Zhuhai in the past, but now the 【9】/'d??:ni/ time is reduced to 45 minutes. By drawing local cities and areas closer together, the bridge will be helpful to the 【10】(develop) of Hong Kong. Macao and nine Guangdong cities. Amazing China!

29、Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true. Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it’s hard for you to communicate with your parents, don’t worry about it. Here is some advice for you to bridge the generation gap.

Don’t argue with your parents. Don’t get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can’t express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don’t think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.

Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael’s mother didn’t agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.

Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong. Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.

A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try!
