When we can see well, we do not think about our eyes often. It is only when we can not see perfectly that we come to see how important our eyes are.
People who are nearsighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Many people who do a lot of close work, such as writing and reading, become nearsighted. Then they have to wear glasses in order to see distant things clearly.
People who are farsighted face just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty reading a book unless they hold it at arm’s length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses too.
Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people’s eyes become cloudy because of cataracts. Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.
When night falls, colors become fainter to the eyes and finally disappear. After your eyes have grown used to the dark, you can see better if you use the side of your eyes rather than the centers. Sometimes, after dark, you see a small thing to one side of you, which seems to disappear if you turn your head in its direction. This is because when you turn your head, you are looking at the thing too directly. Men on guard duty sometimes think they see something moving to one side of them. When they turn to look straight at it, they can not see it any more, and they believe they were mistaken. However, this mistake happens because the center of the eye, which is very sensitive in daylight, is not as sensitive as the sides of the eye after dark.

A.we think about our eyes
B.we cannot see clearly

D.we have to do much reading

小題4:D                                          
  
試題分析:本文講述了人的眼睛。當(dāng)人的眼睛沒有毛病的時候,人們幾乎忘記他的重要性。但是使用眼睛不當(dāng),會得近視眼和遠(yuǎn)視眼。近視眼只能看清近處的東西,看不清遠(yuǎn)處的東西。而遠(yuǎn)視眼只能看清遠(yuǎn)處的東西而看不清近處的東西。 
小題1:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。句意:我們知道什么時候才意識到眼睛的重要性。根據(jù):It is only when we can not see perfectly that we come to see how important our eyes are.只有當(dāng)我們不能很好看清楚東西的時候,我們才會意識到眼睛的重要性。故選B
小題2:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。句意;根據(jù)文章,哪種人更有可能近視?根據(jù):Many people who do a lot of close work, such as writing and reading, become nearsighted.很多做寫作和讀書這樣近距離工作的人會變得近視。故A裁縫B醫(yī)生C門衛(wèi)D畫家故選A,裁縫需要近距離工作,使用眼睛。                 
小題3:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。句意:遠(yuǎn)視的人會怎樣。根據(jù):People who are farsighted .....they have difficulty reading a book unless they hold it at arm’s length遠(yuǎn)視的人遠(yuǎn)視的人讀書有困難,除非他們把書放在一臂遠(yuǎn)。遠(yuǎn)視者看不清近處的東西,故選A 。                        
小題4:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。句意;為了看清黑夜中細(xì)小的東西,最好如何看。根據(jù):After your eyes have grown used to the dark, you can see better if you use the side of your eyes rather than the centers.在你逐漸適應(yīng)黑夜之后,如果你用側(cè)面看而不是用 眼中間看,效果會更好。故選D 換個小的角度會看的更清楚。

Imagine the situation. You are driving in a village or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car doesn’t work. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is used for finding your position(位置) with the help of satellites (衛(wèi)星). A GPS can’t start your car, but at least you will know where you are.
GPS, which means Global Positioning System(全球定位系統(tǒng)), is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it in your hand, or put in your pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find a GPS in cars, planes, or boats. Some of them have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.
There are three parts to GPS. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. The second part is a group of satellites going around the Earth. The receiver communicates with at least four of the satellites and calculates its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations all over the world. They control (控制) the satellites and make sure they are working well.
Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile. They are becoming better and cheaper. There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.
小題1:According to the passage, with the help of the GPS, people __________.
A.can’t be lost in a new city
B.can’t find their way in different countries
C.can learn about the culture of an unknown place

D.the GPS are becoming more and more expensive
小題3:The underlined word “They ” in paragraph 3 means “____________”.
A.ReceiversB.GPSC.SatellitesD.Ground stations
小題4:What can we infer(推斷) from the passage?
A.All GPS devices have electronic maps.
B.People in many countries will use the GPS for free.

Though the ways of teaching have come a long way, the ways of communicating between teachers and students are almost the same. But now, a European country is trying to change that by building schools that have no classrooms, no subject lessons and best of all, no grades.
The idea behind the special school is that children are creative. And researchers also think that kids’ learning and ideas are as important as those of the CEO of Google, so why not give them a similar environment? Kids may be successful in such an environment.
To make kids more creative, the schools are built with special learning areas instead of traditional classrooms. And even the lessons are taught in a special way, with mobile phones and computers.
There is no “right” or “wrong” kind of education. The school believes that everything is a learning experience, whether it is about a serious science project or making a movie inside the school’s recording studio.
One of the special schools opened in August, 2011. It has five learning areas. The Cave is a secluded place where students fix their attention on individual (個人的) projects without being bothered (打擾). The Lab is a place where students can do all kinds of experiments and test their ideas. Kids can work in groups in the same projects in The Camp Fire. The Show Off is where kids can show their inventions. And if the kids need a rest, they can visit The Watering Hole, which has all kinds of fun activities.
Sounds great? And the coolest thing is that the school is free! I hope more schools like this will appear in the world!
小題1:What is the idea behind the special school?
A.The children are creative.
B.All the students need to be taught.
C.All the students must be successful.
D.All the students must have high grades.
小題2:From the passage we can infer (推斷) that        in the special schools.
A.students are boredB.students are tired
C.students learn freely D.students learn from their teachers
小題3:“The Cave is a secluded place ….” The word “secluded” probably means “   ” in Chinese.

小題4:Paragraph 5 mainly tells us that       .              
A.the school doesn’t have grades
B.the school has clever students
C.the school has five learning areas
D.the school doesn’t have classrooms

閱讀下面的短文,并完成短文后的任務(wù)。
Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don’t agree with them.
Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources (資源), we are short of others, for example, fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal(煤) or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. (83) I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.
In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent (阻止) waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. (84) Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best.
任務(wù)1:根據(jù)要求答題。(請注意問題后的詞數(shù)要求) 提示: within 在…以內(nèi)  waste浪費(fèi)

閱讀短文,根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問題。(共10分,每小題2分)
“I sometimes get up at three or four in the morning to surf the Internet.”
“I check my e-mail almost forty times a day.”
“I seldom spend less than three hours each time on the net.”
“Spend more time in chat rooms than with my real-life friends.”
Do you know any people like these? They are part of a new addiction(癮) called Internet addiction. According to experts, Internet addicts(迷)spend at least thirty to forty hours online every week. They lose control of the time they spend on the Internet.
For example, one college student was missing for several days. His friends were worried and 1ooked for him everywhere but couldn’t find him. They called the police. The police found the student in the computer lab: he was surfing the Internet — for seven days straight.
A study shows that about six to ten percent of Internet users become addicted. The teenagers spend more time on the Internet than with families. That’s why some experts worry most about young people.
Is “surfing the Internet” a hobby or all addiction for you? You may have a problem if you have one of the following symptoms(癥狀):

★You can’t wait to get online again.
★You go out with your friends less and less.
★You’ve decided to spend a short time online,but then you spend several hours.
★You do not go to important family events or you do not do school projects because you like to spend hours on the Internet.
What is the solution(解決辦法)? Some experts suggest that people set strict limits(限制) on their time for Internet use. You have to learn to control it, or the Internet would control you.
小題1:Do Internet addicts spend at least thirty to forty hours online every week?
小題2:Where was the missing college student found?
小題3:Why do some experts worry most about young people?
小題4:How many symptoms are mentioned in the passage?
小題5:What’s the passage mainly about?
