5.Shortly after being hired as the Resource Coordinator at Wells High School,I set out to establish an area for students to participate in after-school programs.Within the first week of being hired,I began searching the building for a potentialspace but failed.It wasn't until the custodian(看門人)took me down to the basement of he building that I found what I was looking for.
   My first impression of the basement room was that it looked like something from the sene of a Saw movie.The room was filled with old gardening equipment,along with many other random things.My secnd impression of the room was that it had tons of potential.During the first three weeks of August,about 15 students and I began working on it.By the end of August,the room had been cleared out,cleaned and painted.
  The Graffiti-Mural Art Club was established as a result of all the hard work that went into fixing the bassment room.Because this room is on a separate floor from all of the other things going on in the building,students are able to use this room as their own personal studio.They do not have toworry about making too much noise or spilling paint.In this program,students are given the opportunity to design murals(壁畫) on the walls and students can learn about various steet art techniques.The fact that students are able to"tag"on a wall has served as an inducement for students who usually do not participate in extracurricular programs to join.
  Now the Graffiti-Mural Art Club has allured many local street artists within the community.My hope is that this unique program continues to grow over the span of this year.More and more students can enjoy painting.
56.What did the author do within the first week of his new job?(no more than 15 words)The author setoutto establish an area for students to participate in after-school programs.
57.What was the basement room like when the author first waw it?(no more than 5 words)Something from a Saw movie.
58.Why did the author and his students work on the basement room?(no more than 10 words)Students can use this room as their own personal studio.
59.What does the underlined work"allured"in the last paragraph mean?(1 word)Attracted
60.Do you think the Graffiti-Mural Art Club is of any use to the sdudents?Give your reasons(no more than 20 words)Yes,because students have the opportunity to design murals(壁畫)on the walls and can learn about various street art techniques.

16.Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman.A man goes shopping because he needs something.His purpose is settled and decided in advance.He knows what he wants,and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration.All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want.If the shop has it in stock,the salesman promptly produces it,and the business of trying it on follows at once.All being well,the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes,with hardly any chat and to everyone's satisfaction.
For a man,slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants,or does not have exactly what he wants.In that case the salesman,as the name implies,tries to sell the customer something else,he offers the nearest he can to the article required.No good salesman brings out such a substitute impolitely; he does so with skill:"I know this jacket is not the style you want,sir,but would you like to try it for size?It happens to be the color you mentioned."Few men have patience with this treatment,and the usual response is:"This is the right color and may be the right size,but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on."
Now how does a woman go about buying clothes?In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way.Her shopping is not often based on need.She has never fully made up her mind what she wants,and she is only"having a look round".She is always open to persuasion; indeed she sets great store bywhat the saleswoman tells her,even by what companions tell her.She will try on any number of things.Uppermost in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her.Contrary to a lot of jokes,most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes.They are always on the lockout for the unexpected bargain.Faced with a roomful of dresses,a woman may easily spendan hour going from one rail to another,to and fro,often retracing her steps,before selecting the dresses she wants to try on.It is a laborious process,but apparently an enjoyable one.Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.

45.The passage mainly talks aboutA.
A.differences between men and women shoppers
B.A man goes shopping because he needs something
C.How women go about buying clothes.
D.Women are better at shopping than men
46.The underlined sentence"the price is a secondary consideration"in the first
paragraph means when a man is shoppingC.
A.he buys good quality things,so long as they are not too dear
B.he buys whatever he likes without considering its value
C.he does not mind how much he has to pay for the right things
D.he often buy things without giving the matter proper thought.
47.What does a man do when he can not get exactly what he wants?B.
A.He buys a similar thing because of the color he wants.
B.He usually does not buy anything.
C.At least two of his requirements must be met before he buys.
D.So long as the style is right,he buys the thing.

13.If you have ever had a cat,or have watched one of the many funny cat videos online,you'll know that cats have a mind of their own.A lot of the things they do are hard to understand---they like to climb up tall furniture,fit themselves in small spaces and attack small objects for no reason at all.
Now scientists have managed to figure out what exactly is going on in the brains of our little friends.According to Tony Buffington,a professor at Ohio State University in the US,cats'strange behavior largely comes from their way of life back in the wild."Cats today still have many of the same instincts(本能)that allowed them to live in the wild for millions of years."he said in a TED Talk."To them,our homes are their jungles."
In the wild,cats are hunters.Their bodies and great balancing abilities allow them to climb to high spots to better look at the environment.Even though they don't have to hunt anymore in human houses,they still keep the old habit of viewing the living room from,for example,the top of the refrigerator.
Cats'hunting instinct is also what makes them attack small things like keys and USB drives.In the wild,they hunt whatever they can get,and most of the animals they kill are small.
However,cats can also be prey. This explains why they like to stay in small spaces like drawers or washing machines---they are hiding,or they think they are hiding,from more dangerous animals.This is also why cats prefer a clean box:a smelly one could easily show enemies where they are.
Knowing how cats'minds work is not only useful for better understanding them.It may also help cats'owners to better meet cats'needs.For example,owners could try to make climbing easier for cats by moving their furniture around.They could also use"food puzzles"to make eating feel more like hunting instead of just giving food to the cats.

24.According to Tony Buffington,C.
A.cats'strange behavior is hard for people to understand
B.cats are more used to living in the wild than in humans'homes
C.cats behave strangely mainly because of some instincts in the wild
D.cats'instincts are as helpful to them today as they were millions of year ago
25.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?B
A.Cats like to climb up high because they want to hide from dangerous animals
B.Cats attack keys and USB drives because they have a habit of hunting small animals
C.Cats enjoy staying in small spaces because they usually live in small caves in the wild
D.Cats'preference for a clean box probably has something to do with their hunting instincts
26.The underlined word"prey"in Paragraph 5probably meansD.
A.a(chǎn)n animal that is too lazy
B.a(chǎn)n animal that likes hiding games
C.a(chǎn)n animal that keeps itself clean
D.a(chǎn)n animal that is hunted
27.This article is mainly written toA.
A.explore the reasons behind cats'strange behavior
B.describe cats'past wild experience to readers
C.tell cat owners how to make life easier for cats
D.compare cats'behavior in human homes with that in the wild.

1.How words came into being is unknown.All we assume(推測(cè))is that some early men invented certain sounds,in one way or another,to express thoughts and feelings,actions and things,so that they could talk with each other.Later they agreed upon certain signs,called letters,which could be put together to show those sounds,and which could be written down.Those sounds,whether spoken or written in letters,are called words.
The power of words,then,lies in their associations-the things they bring up to our minds.Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live,the more certain words bring back to us the happy and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn,the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which have powerful effects on our minds and feelings.This clever use of words is what  we call literary style(文體).Above all,the real poet is a master of words.He can express his meaning in words which sing like music,and which by their position and association can move men to tears.We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them correctly,or they will make our speech silly and common.
33.We learn from the text that language might have begun withD.
A.expressions         B.a(chǎn)ctions        C.signs           D.sounds
34.What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2?C
A.The learning of new words.
B.The importance of old words
C.The relation of human experience with words.
D.The gradual change and development of words.
35.In the last paragraph,what does the author suggest that we should do?A
A.Use words skillfully.
B.Make musical speeches
C.Learn poems by heart.
D.Associate with listeners.

2.As I walked along the Edgware Road,I felt as though the world was closing in on me.All the sounds I take for granted,had gone.I had entered a world of silence.This unsettling experience occurred a few weeks ago when I agreed to go deaf for the day to support the work of the charity Hearing Dogs for Deaf People,for which I am an ambassador.
When I managed to take a cab to the office of my manager,Gavin,I couldn't hear what the taxi driver was saying to me.Conversation was impossible.Then,when I reached the office,I had to ring the intercom five times as I couldn't hear a response.
Everybody said I was shouting at them---I simply wasn't aware of how loudly I was speaking as I couldn't hear my own voice.Gavin kept telling me my phone was ringing,but I didn't realize.I was too busy trying to concentrate on reading his lips.And when he tried to tell me a code to put into my phone,I had to keep asking him to repeat it,more slowly.Eventually he lost his patience and snapped at me:"Just give me the phone!"I was shocked.
People couldn't be bothered to repeat themselves,so they kept trying to do things for me that I was perfectly capable of doing myself.I felt I'd lost control.
Being deaf for the day was extraordinarily tiring.I had to work so hard to"listen"with my eyes,get people's attention and use my other senses to make up for my lack of hearing.It was a huge,exhausting effort.
Until that experience I didn't realize how much I took my own hearing for granted,or the sorts of emotions and experiences deaf people go through.If a deaf person asks you to repeat something,never think:"It doesn't matter."It does matter.
