Once an Arab was traveling in the desert . When the sun went down in the west , he stopped and put up his tent , made a fire and had a   36  meal . When night fell , he  37  down to sleep .
He had  38  fallen  asleep  when he felt a soft  39  on his elbow(肘) . He woke up to find that his camel had put his head inside the tent . The camel said , “Would you please let me keep my head in the tent to get warm ? It’s so cold outside . I won’t take up much room . ”
The Arab was a  40  man . “All right ,do as you please , ”he said . Then he turned on his side and went back to sleep .
It wasn’t long  41  he felt a push on his shoulder . It was the camel again . “Dear master ,”the camel said , “my head is quite warm now , but my neck is still cold . Do you mind 42  I keep it inside the tent ,too ? ”
“No , not at all , ”the man said . But this time he felt a bit 43 , as the camel had such a long neck .
Hardly had he shut his eyes when he got a harder push in his side . This time the camel said , “Will you please  44  me to bring my front legs inside and warm them up a little ?”
The Arab moved over to one side of the tent .He made  45  as small as he could . It wasn’t a bit comfortable , and sleep was now  46  .
After a while, the camel gave him a rough push and said , “The tent is too small for the two of us .Besides , my two hind legs are still left in the cold.  47  is only reasonable that you should leave the whole tent to me .”

As a boy,Tim was much influenced by books about the sea, but in fact by the age of fifteen he had decided to become a doctor rather than a sailor. His father was a dentist and as a result Tim had the opportunity of meeting many doctors either at home or elsewhere. When he was fourteen he was already hanging around the clinic of a local doctor where he was supposed to be helping to wrap up medicine bottles,but was actually trying to listen to the conversations taking place between the doctor and his patients in the next room.

After the war, he got married and chose to be a doctor in the countryside,working under an old doctor who was popular in the area,but who hated the sight of blood and believed that the secret of medicine was faith.

It all starts with a tree.In fact, it starts with several trees.Since the first modern guitars were made in northern Spain over 150 years ago, crafts persons have known the wood to be used is important in making a guitar.
Every guitar is made of several different kinds of wood.Each piece is carefully chosen and then cut to fit the part of the guitar for which it is designed.The most important part of a guitar is the soundboard--the piece of wood with a large hole that lies under the strings(弦,線(xiàn)).Guitar makers are careful to make the soundboard just the right shape and thickness.Then they fix stripes(長(zhǎng)條)of wood across the inside in a special pattern, which helps strengthen the soundboard and improves the tone of the guitar.
Wood for the curvy (彎曲的) sides of the guitar must be soaked (浸濕) in water and bent over a hot iron pipe.When all the pieces of the guitar are ready, they are carefully stuck together with glue.Special woodworking tools are used to shape and smooth the neck of the guitar.The craftsperson must make sure that the neck is perfectly centered over the soundboard.
Then it is time to use varnish(亮光漆).This brings out the beauty of the wood.Varnish also improves the sound of the guitar but too much varnish makes the guitar sound flat and dull.
Finally guitar strings are attached and tightened to make just the right musical tones.Then it’s time to play a song.(273 words)
小題1:The best title for this passage may be _____.
A.How to Make a GuitarB.What a Guitar Is Made of
C.How to Play the GuitarD.Where to Find the Best Guitar
小題2:In order to make the soundboard strong, _____.
A.people tie strings to the top of it
B.stripes are stuck across the inside of wood
C.a(chǎn) large hole is made in it
D.several pieces of wood are glued together
小題3:Which of the following doesn’t affect the sound of a guitar?
A.SoundboardB.stringsC.neckD.color
小題4:What will happen to the guitar if too much varnish is used to the wood?
A.The beauty of the wood can’t be seen clearly.
B.The sound of the guitar will be flat and dull.
C.The tone of the guitar will be improved
D.A guitar will become thin

Sydney – A shark savaged a schoolboy’s leg while he was surfing with his father at a beach in Sydney on February 23.it was the third shark attack along the coast of Australia’s largest city in a month.
The 15 – year – old boy and his father were in the water off Avalon, on Sydney’s northern beaches, around dawn when he was attacked.The city’s beaches are packed with locals and tourists during the summer months.
“The father heard a scream and turned to see his son trashing (扭動(dòng)) about in the water,” police said.“Fortunately, the shark swam away and the boy was helped to shore by his father.”
Lifesaving Club spokesman Nick Miller: “It got him around the top of his left leg and the father came and dragged him out of water.” He said the boy was bleeding heavily when he was brought to shore.“There was a lot of pain, as you can imagine”.The teenager was airlifted to hospital for treatment for leg injuries.
Police said the bites “cut through to the bone”, but the boy did not appear to have sustained any fractures (骨折).He was in a stable condition now.
Several beaches were closed after the attack.Water police and lifeguards were searching for the shark, while police hoped to identify its species by the shape of the bite marks.But they said it was too early to say what type of shark attacked the boy.“I don’t even know if he saw it,” Miller said.
Many shark species live in the waters off Sydney’s beaches, but attacks on humans are still relatively rare.However, there were two attacks on successive days earlier this month, one on a navy diver in Sydney harbor, not far from the famous Opera House, and the other on a surfer at the city’s world – famous Bondi beach.
Fishermen say shark numbers are on the rise.There is a ban on commercial fishing in the harbor, which has increased fish stocks.Marine experts also claim environmental protection has created a cleaner environment, attracting sharks closer to shore as they chase fish.Many shark species, including the Great White – the man – eater made famous in Steven Spielberg’s Jaws – are protected in Australian waters.
小題1:The report mainly tells us         .
A.shark attacks on humans are on the rise
B.sharks attacked humans three times in one month
C.a(chǎn) boy was attacked by a shark at a Sydney beach
D.shark numbers are increasing in the waters off Sydney’s beaches
小題2:The underlined word “savaged” in the first paragraph probably means “        ”.
A.a(chǎn)ttractedB.draggedC.bitD.packed
小題3:What do we know about the city of Sydney from the passage?
A.It is one of the largest cities in Australia.
B.Sydney harbor is not far from the famous Opera House.
C.There are many locals and tourists on its coast all year round.
D.There are few shark species in the waters off Sydney’s beaches.
小題4:About the injury of the boy we know that        .
A.he was losing much blood when he was dragged out
B.he was very nervous when he was sent to hospital
C.he may be in danger of losing his leg
D.he was injured in the right leg

A 33-year-old financial analyst in California recently quit his job to devote himself to an unpaid job teaching math on the Internet, and his lessons are reaching almost 100,000 people a month. Salman Khan’s voice is heard every day on the net --- by tens of thousands of students around the world who are hungry for help learning math. He has posted 1,200 lessons on YouTube ... lessons that appear on an electronic blackboard, which range from basic addition to advanced mathematics for science and finance. And they are free.
Khan lives in Silicon Valley, with his wife, a doctor, and their new baby. He got the idea for his “Khan Academy” four years ago, when he taught a young cousin how to convert kilograms to grams. With Khan’s help, the cousin got good at math, and Khan began a new career.
Now, Khan records his lessons himself, but he never goes on camera. “It feels like my voice in their head. You’re looking at it and it feels like someone’s over your shoulder talking in your ear, as opposed to someone at the blackboard, which is distant from you,” he said.
When Springfield High School in Palo Alto, California invited Khan to speak in person --- he immediately connected to the students there.
The idea of short lessons that can be played over and over again attracted high school senior Bridget Meaney. She says she had trouble with math in the seventh grade. “I think the teachers are good, but they can’t teach at a speed that’s perfect for everyone,” she said. “I like the idea of learning something in class but then going back and pressing pause or rewind and actually getting a deeper understanding of it.”
Originally, Khan kept his lessons short because of YouTube restrictions. Now, he thinks short is better. “Education researchers now tell me that 10 minutes is how long someone can have a high level of concentration. And anything beyond that and your brain switches off,” he said.
For Khan, teaching math, science, and finance is just the beginning. He says he’s ready to expand his YouTube site to include other subjects as well.
小題1:What gave Khan the idea of teaching math online?
A.His success in helping his cousin learn math.
B.His discovery that many students found learning math difficult.
C.A suggestion made to him at a local high school.
D.His interest in Internet teaching.
小題2:Why does Khan never go on camera?
A.He’s too shy to show his face on camera.
B.It’s restricted by YouTube for education videos.
C.He wants to keep distance from the viewers.
D.He wants to create a more relaxed learning atmosphere.
小題3:From the passage, we know that ________.
A.Khan travels to many schools to promote his lessons
B.Khan plans to include more subjects in the future
C.Khan gives live math lessons every day for free
D.Khan set up the Khan Academy with his wife
小題4:Why does Bridget Meaney like Khan’s lessons?
A.Khan teaches seventh grade math better than her teacher.
B.The lessons can be watched repeatedly until fully understood.
C.She can perfectly follow the pace of Khan’s teaching.
D.She cannot concentrate when learning in class.
小題5:What does Khan mean by “short is better” in the 6th paragraph?
A.Keeping the lessons short can ensure better concentration.
B.YouTube recommends short lessons for its site.
C.Short lessons encourage students to return to the website.
D.Students enjoy short mathematics lessons more.

Farmer John and Farmer Bob were neighbours. For more than 30 years, they had been getting along very well.

Then their good relationship broke. It began with a small thing, then bitter words, and then weeks of silence. One morning Farmer John woke up to find a stream between the two farms. “It must be Bob,” John thought.
Then one day there was a knock on John’s door. He opened it to find a carpenter(木匠) standing at the doorway.
“I’m looking for a few days’ work,” the carpenter said.
“I do have a job for you,” John said. “Look across the stream at that farm. That’s my neighbour Bob. He dug a stream between the two farms. I want you to build a fence—an 8-foot fence. I don’t want to see his place or his face any more. I don’t have such a neighbour!”
The carpenter said, “I think I know what to do, sir, and I’ll be able to do a job that pleases you.”
Farmer John helped the carpenter get the materials(材料) ready and then he was off for the day.
About sunset when the farmer returned, the carpenter had just finished his job. The farmer’s eyes opened wide. There was no fence there at all!
It was a bridge! And the neighbour, Bob, was coming across, with his hand outstretched(伸出). “Hi, John! You’re quite a fellow to build this bridge!”

Then they turned to see the carpenter, who was ready to go. “No, wait! Stay a few days. I have a lot of other jobs for you,” said Farmer John. “I’d love to stay,” the carpenter said, “but I have more bridges to build.”

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:不詳 題型:閱讀理解

One day, a young man was cleaning out his late grandfather’s belongings when he came across a bright red envelope. Written on the front were the words, "To my grandson." Recognizing his grandfather's handwriting ,the young man opened the enbelope. A letter inside read:
Dear Ronny, 
Years ago you came to me for help .You said, "Grandpa, how is it that you've accomplished so much in your life? You're still full of energy, and I'm already tired of struggling. How can I get that same enthusiasm that you've got?"
I didn't know what to say to you then. But knowing my days are numbered, I figure that I owe you an answer. So here is what I believe.
I think a lot of it has to do with how a person looks at things. I call it "keeping your eyes wide open."
First ,realize that life is filled with surprises, but many are good ones .If you don't keep watching for them, you'll miss half the excitement. Expect to be thrilled once in a while ,and you will be.
When you meet up with challenges, welcome them. They'll leave you wiser ,stronger, and more capable than you were the day before .when you make a mistake ,be grateful for the things it taught you .Resolve to use that lesson to help you reach your goals.
And always follow the rules. Even the little ones. When you follow the rules, life works. If you think you ever really get by with breaking the rules, you're only fooling yourself.
It's also important to decide exactly what you want. Then keep your ming focused on it, and be prepared to receive it.
But be ready to end up in some new places too ,As you grow with the years, you'll be given bigger shoes to fill. So be ready for endings as well as challenging beginnings.
Sometimes we have to be brave enough to move from the familiar to the unfamiliar .Life isn't just reaching peaks, Part of it is moving from one peak to the next .If you rest too long in between, you might be tempted to quit .Leave the past in the past .Climb the next mountain and enjoy the view.
Dump things that weigh you down emotionally and spiritually. When an old resentment, belief, or attitude becomes heavy ,lighten your load. Shed those hurtful attitudes that slow you down and drain your energy.
Remember that your choices will create your successes and your failures. So consider all the pathways ahead, and decide which ones to follow. Then believe in yourself, get up, and get going.
And be sure to take breaks once in a while .They'll give you a renewed commitment to your dreams and a cheerful, healthy perception of the things that matter the most to you .
Most important of all. never give up on yourself. The person that ends up a winner is the once who resolves to win. Give life everything you've got, and life will give its best back to you.
Love always,
Grandpa

小題3:The young man’s grandpa may agree     .
A.how a person looks at things has nothing to do with one’s future
B.we should be thankful for what mistakes teach us

D.It’s not so important to decide exactly what you want
