19.We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life,but most of us don't do a very good job.This article gives some suggestions on how to give an effective speech.
So,you have to give a speech-and you're terrified.You get nervous,you forget what you want to say,you stumble(結(jié)巴) over words,you talk too long,and you bore your audience.Later you think,"Thank goodness,it's over.I'm just no good at public speaking.I hope I never have to do that again."
Cheer up!It doesn't have to be that bad.Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making.Ask yourself the purpose of your speech.What is the occasion?Why are you speaking?Then,gather as many facts as you can on your subject.Spend plenty of time doing your research.Then spend plenty of time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow.Use as many examples as possible,and use pictures,charts,and graphs if they will help you make your points more clearly.Never forget your audience.Don't talk over their heads,and don't talk down to them.Treat your audience with respect.They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.
Just remember:be prepared.Know your subject,your audience,and the occasion.Be brief.Say what you have to say and then stop.And be yourself.Let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your audience.
If you follow these simple steps,you'll see that you don't have to be afraid of public speaking.In fact,you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches!You're not convinced yet?Give it a try and see what happens.

63.The main idea of this article is thatA.
A.you can improve your speaking ability    
B.a(chǎn) poor speaker can never change

7.Some of the most painful moments I spend as a vet (獸醫(yī) ) are those spent with my customers assisting my animal patients from this world to the next.Making this final decision is not easy,and I have often felt powerless to comfort the sorrowful owners.
That was before I met Shane.
I had been called to examine a ten-year-old dog named Belker who had developed a serious health problem.The dog's owner-Ron,his wife,Lisa,and their little boy,Shane-were hoping for a miracle (奇跡).But I told the family there were no miracles left for Belker,and offered to perform the euthanasia (安樂死) for the old dog in their home.As we made the arrangements,Ron and Lisa told me they thought it would be good for the four-year-old Shane to observe the euthanasia.They felt Shane could leam something from the experience.
The next day,I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker's family surrounded him.
Shane seemed so calm,patting the old dog for the last time,that I wondered if he understood what was going on.
A few minutes later,Belker slipped peacefully away.The little boy seemed to accept Belker's death without any difficulty or confusion.We sat together for a little while after Belker's death,wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are shorter than human lives.
Shane,who had been listening quietly,piped up:"I know why."
Shocked,we all turned to him.What came out of his mouth next astonished me.I'd never heard a more comforting explanation.
He said,"Everybody is born so they can learn how to live a good life:like loving everybody and being nice,right?"The four-year-old continued,"Well,animals already know how to do that,so they don't have to stay as long."

21.Shane's parents wanted Shane to witness the euthanasia mainly becauseA.
A.they hoped he could gain something from it
B.they knew he hated to part with Belker
C.they wanted him to remember Belker forever
D.they intended him to learn to carry out euthanasia
22.What can we learn from the third paragraph?B
A.Belker got sick mainly because of lack of care.
B.There was no hope for Belker to recover but to suffer.
C.Shane didn't feel sad about Belker's death.
D.Belker didn't want to live any longer because of the pain.
23.We can infer from the underlined sentence thatA.
A.words failed the vet when he tried to comfort Belker's family
B.the vet was familiar with the feelings of Belker's family
C.the vet would rather not perform the euthanasia
D.the vet's throat was uncomfortable with Belker's family around
24.What would the author say about Shane?C
A.He knew little about animal lives.
B.He felt unexpected about Belker's death.
C.He had a unique opinion about life.
D.He was an outgoing and warm-hearted boy.

14.A weak old man lived with his son,his daughter-in-law,and his four-year-old grandson.His eyes couldn't see clearly,his hands trembled,and his step was unstable.
The family would eat together nightly at the dinner table.But the elderly grandfather's shaky hands and failing sight made eating rather difficult.Peas rolled off his spoon,dropping to the floor.When he grasped his glass of milk,it often spilled clumsily at the tablecloth.
With this happening almost every night,the son and daughter-in-law became irritated with the mess.So they decided to do something with the old man-they set a small table at the corner.There,the grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed their dinner at the dinner table.Since the grandfather had broken a dish or two,his food was served in wooden bowls.Sometimes when the family glanced in the grandfather's direction,he had a tear in his eye as he ate alone.Still,the only words the couple had for him were sharp warnings when he dropped a fork or spilled food.The four-year-old watched it all in silence.
One evening,before supper,the father noticed his son playing with wood pieces on the floor.He asked the child sweetly:"What are you making?"Just as sweetly,the boy replied,"Oh,I'm making a little bowl for you and mama to eat your food from when I grow up."The four-year-old smiled and went back to work.
These words so struck the parents that they were speechless.Then tears streamed down their cheeks.Though no words were spoken,both knew what must be done.That evening,the husband took the grandfather's hand and gently led him back to the family table.
For the rest of his days,the grandfather ate every meal with the family.And for some reason,neither the husband nor the wife seemed to care any longer when a fork was dropped,milk was spilled or the table cloth was soiled.

56.The underlined word"irritated"in the third paragraph meansA.
A.a(chǎn)nnoyed

4.Harry Potter and The Hunger Games haven't been big hits for nothing.Lots of teens and adolescents still read quite a lot.But a study shows a clear decline over time.Nearly half of 17-year-olds say they read for pleasure no more than one or two times a year,and that's way down from a decade ago.
The digital revolution means there are more platforms than ever to read on.Jim Steyer has been studying the effect of technology on children,and he finds the results striking.Steyer has four kids and has seen the trend most with his 16-year-old.
"I start to see it in our 10-year-old,because he is less and less reading,and more and more attracted to some of the digital media platforms that he has access to."he says.
Researchers want to know more about how teens are spending their time in the digital age.But Kathryn Zickuhr of the Pew Research Center says it's tricky.If a kid is looking at a book,you can assume he or she is reading.But when it comes to looking at a smartphone or tablet,who knows?
"We've heard from middle and high school teachers that sometimes the Internet is wonderful for highly motivated students to do deep and expansive research,"says Zickuhr."But on the other hand,obviously there are many distractions(干擾)on the Internet."
"Despite those distractions,parents can do a lot to promote reading.Kids with parents who read,who buy or take books out of the library for their kids,and who then set time aside in their kids'daily schedule for reading,tend to read the most,whether it's on a book,an e-book or some other devices."Jim Steyer says.

29.What does Jim Steyer see in his four kids?C
A.They become addicted to magic novels.
B.They read for pleasure more frequently.
C.They spend too much time on electronic devices.
D.They get their reading ability improved on the Internet.
30.According to Kathryn Zickuhr,D.
A.it is easy to know whether a kid is reading on a tablet
B.kids are making the best of the Internet in their study
C.the Internet is an effective motivation to reading
D.the Internet can easily get students unfocused
31.According to the last paragraph,the key to helping kids to read more isB.
A.the Internet    B.parents    C.digital devices  D.scientists
32.Which of the following questions is the passage intended to explain?C
A.How do parents get teens out of digital media?
B.What can be done to help kids to read for fun?
C.Why are teens reading less than before in digital age?
D.Why is reading for pleasure beneficial to kids?
