16.Sahnun Mohamud has never lived in Somalia,but the 21-year-old student has helped set  up an organization that supports aid projects for the east-African country.Sahnun Mohamud is  a co-founder and director of a group called Students for Somalia.He is following the  humanitarian example of his mother.
    Mr.Mohamud attends William & Mary College in Williamsburg,Virgina.It is a long  way from Somalia.However,that coastal nation is home to many of his relatives.His parents  were born there.His mother,F(xiàn)ilsan Darman helped start the non-profit agency Aadamiga  Somalia,which provided for aid to Somalia in 1987.
    Filsan Darman said the agency provided food and clothing to Somali people,who had fled  to the Somali capital Mogadishu to escape contradiction in the North.
    Sahnun Mohamud praised his mother's service,"She's been helping Somalia since before I was born."
    Mr.Mohamud became involved in Humanitarian projects early in life.One of his goals for starting Students for Somalia was to get more non-Somalis to take part in helping Somalia.He noted that many Somali aid organizations have only Somali members.
"So my group and my whole motto has been‘Let every ethnicity and race help Somalia'.I think it's a huge resource to have non-somali people helping Somalia."said Mohamud.
    This year,Students for Somalia and Aadamiga are cooperating on a project to fight poverty and increase education.Mr.Mohamud said the groups lend money to women who have lived a long time in refugee(難民)camps in Mogadishu.They use the money to start or support businesses like small food stores.The women must have a child in school in Somalia to receive the money.She also must pay back the loan,but Mr.Mohamud says the woman does not return the loan money to the lender.Instead,she gives it to her child's schoo1.That way,he says,the school can make improvements.

分析 本文主要講述了賽哈農(nóng)•穆罕邁德繼承了母親的人道主義精神,幫助建立一個(gè)組織,支持索馬里的援助項(xiàng)目,同母親一起幫助索馬里的貧困人民,借錢(qián)給其他母親讓她們能供自己的孩子上學(xué),并將錢(qián)還給學(xué)校促進(jìn)其發(fā)展.作者寫(xiě)這篇文章是為了告訴我們要幫助那些需要幫助的人,得到幫助后要回報(bào)他人.

解答 56.C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題,由第一段Sahnun Mohamud is  a co-founder and director of a group called Students for Somalia.可知賽哈農(nóng)•穆罕邁德是這個(gè)組織的主任,故選C.
57.A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題,由第二段His mother,F(xiàn)ilsan Darman helped start the non-profit agency Aadamiga  Somalia,which provided for aid to Somalia in 1987.可知從1987年就開(kāi)始對(duì)索馬里提供幫助,所以A正確;誤解分析:由第六段‘Let every ethnicity and race help Somalia'可知讓每個(gè)種族和民族幫助索馬里只是一個(gè)呼吁,所以B錯(cuò);選項(xiàng)C在文中并沒(méi)有提到,所以C錯(cuò);由最后一段The women must have a child in school in Somalia to receive the money.可知他們的目的不是幫助婦女,而是幫她們的孩子,所以D錯(cuò);故選A.
58.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題,由第六段This year,Students for Somalia and Aadamiga are cooperating on a project to fight poverty and increase education.可知這個(gè)組織的目的是消除貧困,增加教育,故選D.

4.
A.The mistaken belief
B.The need for tolerance
C.Unpunctuality at dinners
D.Punctuality and confidence
E.Self-discipline and punctuality
F.Avoid anxiety by being punctual
61.A
There is the belief that,if you arrive at an appointment late,you will be considered important.This is a mistaken view.Being unpunctual,we are not respectful of others; we are interfering (擾亂)with another man's time.We must realise that keeping appointments or being punctual is a contract that is silently agreed and we are expected to respect this contract.It is only natural that we lose faith,trust and confidence in a person who is tardy(延遲的).
62.E
To be punctual one has to have self-discipline(自律),and the lack of it affects others.A school boy or girl is unpunctual because he or she does not have the necessary human virtue of self-discipline.It is also a mark of disrespect for a system or an institution.Unpunctual people seldom realise that their habit cause problems to others.A salesman who is not punctual may not make a sale if he arrives late for an appointment.If one is late for a job interview,it is not likely that he will get the job.
63.F
Being punctual,we can avoid anxiety.Imagine the anxiety if you do not want to be considered unpunctual.You will be anxious if you set out for a dinner late.The person who sets out late might be careless in driving.He will ignore traffic rules.A traffic jam,flat tyres,etc.can delay him further.Happy and calm is the man who takes all these possibilities into consideration and arrives at the appointment either early or on time.
64.C
Many of those who attend dinners are notorious (聲名狼藉的)for unpunctuality.They ignore the appointed time and leave their homes only after the fixed time.They are indifferent to the inconvenience caused to others.If the self-centred guest arrives late,the nine others at the table set for ten will have to wait.The host is put in an unpleasant situation and this man seldom thinks of the inconvenience caused to all-the waiters,the management staff,etc.It is necessary for us to think of others and be considerate to them.
65.B
However,we cannot always be intolerant (無(wú)法容忍的) of tardiness,for ordinary living requires some tolerance.There can be a busy executive who fights to keep to his schedule.Such a person may be forgiven if he is late,but not those who are deliberately late to create impression.
In modern society,punctuality is a necessary virtue.It is a recognition of the importance of other people.

11.Not all bodies of water are so evidently alive as the Atlantic Ocean,an S-shaped body of water covering 33million square miles.The Atlantic has,in a sense,replaced the Mediterranean as the inland sea of Weatern civilization.Unlike real inland seas,which seem strangely still,the Atlantic is rich in oceanic liveliness.It is perhaps not surprising that its vitality has been much written about by ancient poets.
"Strm at Sea",a short poem written around 700,is generally regarded as one of mankind's earliest artistic representations of the Atlantic.
When the wind is from the west
All the waves that cannot test
To the east must thunder on
Where the bright tree of the sun
Is rooted in the osean's breast.
As the poem suggests,the Atlantic is never dead and dull.It is an ocean that moves,impressively and endlessly.It makes all kinds of noise-it is forever thundering,boiling,crashing,and whistling.
It is easy to imagine the Atlantic trying to draw breath-perhaps not so noticeably out in mid-ocean,but where it meets land,its waters bathing up and down a sandy beach.It mimics(模仿)nearly perfectly the steady breathing of a living creature.It is filled with symbiotic existences,too; unimaginable quantities of creatures,little and large alike,mix within its depths in a kind of oceanic harmony,giving to the waters a feeling of heartbeat,a kind of sub-ocean vitality.And it has a psychology.It has personalities:sometimes peaceful and pleasant,on rare occasions rough and wild; always it is strong and striking.

68.Unlike real inland seas,the Atlantic Ocean isA.
A.a(chǎn)lways energetic
B.lacking in liveliness
C.shaped like a square
D.favored by ancient poets
69.What is the purpose of using the poem"Storm at Sea"in the passage?C
A.To describe the movement of the waves.
B.To show the strength of the storm.
C.To represent the power of the ocean.
D.To prove the vastness of the sea.
70.What does the underlined word"symbiotic"mean?A
A.Living together.
B.Growing fast.
C.Moving harmoniously.
D.Breathing peacefully.
71.In the last paragraph,the Atlantic is compared toB.
A.a(chǎn) beautiful and poetic place
B.a(chǎn) flesh and blood person
C.a(chǎn) wonderful world
D.a(chǎn) lovely animal.

3.Two friends have an argument that breaks up their friendship forever,even though neither one can remember how the whole thing got started.Such sad events happen over and over in high schools across the country.In fact,according to an official report on youth violence,"In our country today,the greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment,but the terrible reality of violence".Given that this is the ease,why aren't students taught to manage conflict the way they are taught to solve math problems,drive ears,or stay physically fit?
First of all,students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable.A report on violence among middle school and high school students indicates that most violent incidents between students begin with a relatively minor insult (侮辱).For example,a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandwich each lunchtime.Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults,which in turn can lead to violence.The problem isn't in the sandwich,but in the way students deal with the conflict.
Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable,they can practice the golden rule of conflict resolution (解決):stay calm.Once the student feels calmer,he or she should choose words that will calm the other person down as  well Rude words,name-calling,and accusations only add fuel to the emotional fire.On the other hand,soft words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes out of control.
After both sides have calmed down,they can use another key strategy (策略) for conflict resolution:listening.Listening allows the two sides to understand each other.One person should describe his or her side,and the other person should listen without interrupting.Afterward,the listener can ask non-threatening questions to clarify the speaker's position.Then the two people should change roles.
Finally,students need to consider what they are hearing.Tiffs doesn't mean trying to figure out what's wrong with the other person.It means understanding what the real issue is and what both sides are trying to accomplish.For example,a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things.Students need to ask themselves questions such as these:How did this start?What do I really want?What am I afraid of?As the issue becomes clearer,the conflict often simply becomes smaller.Even if it doesn't,careful thought helps both sides figure out a mutual solution.
There will always be conflict in schools,but that doesn't mean there needs to be violence.After students in Atlanta started a conflict resolution program,according to Educators for Social Responsibility,"64percent of the teachers reported less physical violence in the classroom; 75percent of the teachers reported an increase in student co-operation; and 92percent of the students felt better about themselves'.Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends,teachers,parents,bosses,and coworkers.In that way,conflict resolution is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country.

50.This article is mainly aboutD.
A.the lives of school children                B.the cause of arguments in schools
C.how to analyze youth violence               D.how to deal with school conflicts
51.From Paragraph 2we can learn thatB.
A.violence is more likely to occur at lunchtime
B.a(chǎn) small conflict can lead to violence
C.students tend to lose their temper easily
D.the eating habit of a student is often the cause of a fight
52.Why do students need to ask themselves the questions stated in Paragraph 5?C.
A.To find out who is to blame.
B.To get ready to try new things.
C.To make clear what the real issue is.
D.To figure out how to stop the shouting match.
53.After the conflict resolution program was started in Atlanta,it was found thatA.

B.there was less student cooperation in the classroom
C.more teachers felt better about themselves in schools
D.the teacher-student relationship greatly improved
54.The writer's purpose for writing this article is toC.
A.complain about problems in school education
