18.After noticing that her eight grade students had problems focusing during math class,a North Carolina teacher decided to channel their energy in a different way-cycling.
It doesn't sound like the most common thing to do during math class,but Bethany Lambeth,a teacher from Wake County,says that ever since she fixed cycling machines under her students'desks,they are more focused,and,most importantly,they are no longer fidgeting (煩躁) all the time.
"Before,they were drumming on their desks,they were touching other people,they don't do that any more.Their feet are getting the movement out,"she said."There has been a huge increase in the quality of our student's work and a decrease in the amount of missing work."
Lambeth fixed the cycling machines at the end of last year,paying around $150 for each,which includes a warranty(授權(quán)).The cost was covered by donations and a money from the 4-C fund.No tax-payer money was used,but judging by the results observed by the Wake County teacher,this might be a solution authorities might want to look into.After learning about the success of Lambeth's project,school officials are particularly excited about the role cycling machines could play in Special Education classes.
The kids obviously love the new"toys".Sofia Fedele,one of Lambeth's students,said cycling helps her focus on her work during class."I usually tap my feet and so on just because it keeps me focused,"she said,adding that pedaling(踩踏板) is much better."It keeps me exercising and focused."

29.Why did Lambeth fix cycling machines?A
A.To direct students'energy.
B.To get on well with students.
C.To raise students'health consciousness.
D.To provide students a way to lose weight.
30.What will the school do next?C
A.To raise more money for Lambeth.
B.To observe the effect of cycling machines.
C.To fix more cycling machines in the classrooms.
D.To call on parents to fix cycling machines at home.
31.What does Sofia Fedele think of pedaling?D
A.Disappointing.B.Useless.C.Exciting.D.Beneficial.

解答 29.A細(xì)節(jié)題.根據(jù)文章第一段內(nèi)容After noticing that her eight grade students had problems focusing during math class,a North Carolina teacher decided to channel their energy in a different way-cycling.發(fā)現(xiàn)學(xué)生在數(shù)學(xué)課上精力不集中時(shí),Lambeth 用騎自行車的方式來轉(zhuǎn)移學(xué)生注意力,結(jié)合選項(xiàng),故選A
30.C 細(xì)節(jié)題.根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容After learning about the success of Lambeth's project,school officials are particularly excited about the role cycling machines could play in Special Education classes.在觀察到 Lambeth的計(jì)劃很成功之后.學(xué)習(xí)發(fā)言人特別高興,表示cycling machines 應(yīng)該被用在特殊教育課堂中,結(jié)合選項(xiàng),故選C
31.D 細(xì)節(jié)題.根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容."I usually tap my feet and so on just because it keeps me focused,"she said,adding that pedaling(踩踏板) is much better."It keeps me exercising and focused."由此可知,Sofia Fedele 說課上踩踏板是非常好的,那樣幫助她鍛煉以及精力集中,結(jié)合選項(xiàng),故選D

點(diǎn)評(píng) 本文是一個(gè)人物故事類閱讀理解,題目涉及多道細(xì)節(jié)理解題,做題時(shí)結(jié)合原文和題目有針對(duì)性的找出相關(guān)語句進(jìn)行仔細(xì)分析,結(jié)合選項(xiàng)選出正確答案.推理判斷題也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確答案,切忌胡亂猜測(cè),一定要做到有理有據(jù).

20."You see someone just sitting there,looking like they're stupid,"explains teenager Manny Logan excitedly."You just run up to them,slap(掌擊)them and run off.It's funny."
The 16-year-old Logan was describing"happy slapping".It's supposed to be fun but it's a new problem in Britain.Young people will attack passers-by while their friends record the whole thing on camera phones.It was first reported in south London six months ago.But,the practice has spread to other parts of the country and videos of attacks have become popular on the Internet.
The young people are called"hoodies"because they usually wear a sweatshirt with a hooded top.The top can be used to cover the head or face.
One study in England published earlier this year suggested that as many as one in four teenagers is an active offender.That includes both serious crimes and small acts like not paying for a bus ticket.
The fear of youth crime has left some parts of towns empty of ordinary people.
So,the British government declared war on public disorder last week.The Prime Minister has supported a decision by the country's biggest shopping centre in southeast of England to ban teenagers wearing hooded tops.The clothing helps tr oublemakers hide from the centre's cameras.
This week,the government is going further.It plans to force teenage offenders to wear orange jackets while they do public service.The idea is to sh ame them in front of others.
But some teenagers and experts have complained that,in their rush to stop the hoodies,politicians risk tarring all teenagers with the same brush.

25.According to the text,for what do the teenagers attack a person?A
A.Just for fun.B.Just for money.
C.To become well-known.D.To help their friends.
26.Why do teenager offenders wear hooded tops?D
A.To run away quickly.B.To record the happy slapping.
C.To avoid being hurt.D.To avoid being identified.
27.A teenager who wears an orange jacket doing public service is one whoC.
A.intends to attack people

1.第二節(jié) 語法填空 
閱讀下面材料,在空白處填入適當(dāng)?shù)膬?nèi)容(1個(gè)單詞)或括號(hào)內(nèi)單詞的正確形式.
When someone has deeply hurt you,it can be very difficult to let go of your anger.But forgiveness is possible---and it can be surprisingly   (41)beneficial(benefit) to your physical and mental health.So far,research  (42)has shown(show) that people who forgive can have more energy,better appetite and better sleep."People who forgive show  (43)less(little) anger and more hopefulness,"says Dr.Frederic Luskin,who wrote the book Forgive for Good."So it can help reduce the tiredness out of the immune system and allow people  (44)to feel(feel) more energetic."
So when someone has hurt you,cool down first.Take a couple of breaths and think of something (45)that  gives you pleasure:a beautiful scene in nature,or someone you love.Don't wait for an(46)apology(apologize)."Many times the person who hurt you may never think of apologizing,"says Dr.Luskin."They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don't see things in(47)the same way.So if you wait for people to say sorry,you could be waiting a very long time."
Next,keep(48)in  mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean accepting the action of the person who upsets you.(49)Instead,learn to look for the love,beauty and kindness around you.
Finally,try to see things from the other person's perspective.You may realize that he or she was acting out of ignorance.To gain perspective,you may want to write a letter to(50)yourself(you) from that person's point of view.
