2、 in everything. Ive even got so far as to define myself by my _4_， saying that how _5_ I am. If I dont get the grade I _6_， then I am lost.Today I was sitting in class trying to make use of the last minutes to study for a test I had to get full marks. When the girl behind me started talking to me, I

3、 tried to listen _7_ while still glancing at my study sheet now and then. When I thought the _8_ required it, I smiled, _9_ and agreed.

8、gh.閱讀理解ADo you know Australia? Australia is the largest island in the world. It is a little smaller than China. It is in the south of the earth. Australia is big, but its population is not large. The population of Australia is nearly as large as that of Shanghai.The government has made enough laws t

9、o fight pollution. The cities in Australia have got little air or water pollution. The sky is blue and the water is clean. You can clearly see fish swimming in the rivers. Plants grow very well.Last month we visited Perth, the biggest city in Western Australia, and went to a wild flowers exhibition.

10、 There we saw a large number of wild flowers we had never seen before. We had a wonderful time. Perth is famous for its beautiful wild flowers. In spring every year Perth has the wild flowers exhibition. After visiting Perth, we spent the day in the countryside. We sat down and had a rest near a pat

11、h at the foot of a hill. It was quiet and we enjoyed ourselves. Suddenly we heard bells ringing at the top of the hill. What we saw made us pick up all our things and run back to the car as quickly as we could. There were about three hundred sheep coming towards us down the path.Australia is famous

12、for its sheep and kangaroos. After a short drive from any town, you will find yourself in the middle of white sheep. Sheep, sheep, everywhere are sheep.16Australia is _Athe largest country in the worldBas large as ShanghaiCnot as large as ChinaDthe largest island in the north of the earth17. The gov

15、ack to the car because we were in the middle of white sheep.CThree hundred sheep came towards us because they saw us.DIf you go to the countryside in Australia, you will see a large number of white sheep.BOne of our biggest fears nowadays is that our kids might some day get lost in a “sea_of_technol

16、ogy” rather than experiencing the natural world. Fearproducing TV and computer games are leading to a serious disconnect between kids and the great outdoors, which will change the wild places of the world, its creatures and human health for the worse, unless adults get working on childs play.Each of

17、 us has a place in nature we go sometimes, even if it was torn down. We cannot be the last generation to have that place. At this rate, kids who miss the sense of wonder outdoors will not grow up to be protectors of natural landscapes. “If the decline in parks use continues across North America, who

18、 will defend parks against encroachment (蠶食)？” asks Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods.Without having a nature experience, kids can turn out just fine, but they are missing out a huge enrichment of their lives. That applies to everything from their physical health and mental health, to

19、stress levels, creativity and cognitive (認(rèn)知的) skills. Experts predict modern kids will have poorer health than their parentsand they say a lack of outside play is surely part of it; research suggests that kids do better academically in schools with a nature component and that play in nature fosters

20、(培養(yǎng)) leadership by the smartest, not by the toughest. Even a tiny outdoor experience can create wonder in a child. The threeyearold turning over his first rock realizes he is not alone in the world. A clump of trees on the roadside can be the whole universe in his eyes. We really need to value that

21、more. Kids are not to blame. They are overprotected and frightened. It is dangerous out there from time to time, but repetitive stress from computers is replacing breaking an arm as a childhood rite (儀式) of passage.Everyone, from developers to schools and outdoorsy citizens, should help regain for o

22、ur kids some of the freedom and joy of exploring, taking friendship in fields and woods that cement (增強(qiáng)) love, respect and need for landscape. As parents, we should devote some of our energies to taking our kids into nature. This could yet be our greatest cause.21The main idea of Paragraph 2 is that

23、 _. Akids are missing the sense of wonder outdoorsBparks are in danger of being gradually encroached CRichard Louv is the author of Last Child in the WoodsDchildren are expected to develop into protectors of nature 22According to the passage, children without experiencing nature will _Akeep a high s

25、r own carelessness in playDthe effect of their repetitive stress from computers24What does “sea of technology” mean in the first paragraph?AThe technology of TV and computer games. BThe technology of food. CThe technology of sea food. DThe technology of catching animals in the sea. 25In writing this

26、 passage, the author mainly intends to _. Ablame children for getting lost in computer games Bencourage children to protect parks from encroachment Cshow his concern about childrens lack of experience in nature Dinspire children to keep the sense of wonder about things around課時作業(yè)(十五).來自教師家庭的“我”，一直以來

27、在學(xué)習(xí)上出類拔萃，遙遙領(lǐng)先，并引以為豪，專心學(xué)習(xí)、打敗所有的對手一直是“我”的目標(biāo)，考試前的幾分鐘“我”都在拼命地學(xué)習(xí)，和坐在后排的那位女孩的一次談話經(jīng)歷使“我”的心態(tài)有所改變。1B語境為：當(dāng)你出生自父母都是老師的家庭，這一切都會很自然(natural)。awesome令人敬畏的，可怕的，極好的；unfortunate不幸的，令人遺憾的；compulsory強(qiáng)制的，必須做的。2A對應(yīng)前面的high academic standards，結(jié)合下文的dislike losing，可以看出，這里指的是：作者在學(xué)習(xí)上水平較高，競爭(competitive)精神較強(qiáng)，所以，他不僅僅不喜歡失敗，而且也無法

28、忍受失敗。conservative保守的，守舊的；primitive原始的；subjective主觀的。3D語境見上一題。作者無法忍受(stand)這個情況。swear咒罵，詛咒；recommend推薦；tease取笑，戲弄。4B語境為：“我”的學(xué)習(xí)達(dá)到如此優(yōu)秀的水平，以至于通過我的考試成績(grade)就能看出“我”是多么優(yōu)秀。第6空前有原詞復(fù)現(xiàn)，下文的full marks中也有暗示。5Coutstanding杰出的，優(yōu)秀的。語境見上一題。handsome英俊的；interesting有趣的；modest謙虛的，謙遜的。6B前文告訴我們，作者一直要做最好的學(xué)生(I am a straight

29、A student and have been my whole life)，一直在打敗最好的學(xué)生(need to beat the top students)，并且無法忍受(考試中的)失敗，所以這里的意思是：如果“我”考試的分?jǐn)?shù)沒達(dá)到所期待(expect)的分?jǐn)?shù)，“我”就輸了。steal偷盜；deserve值得，應(yīng)得；allocate撥給，分配給。7C由下文對作者在談話中的表現(xiàn)I smiled，and agreed可以看出，作者在整個過程中是很有禮貌的。attentively注意地，專心地；bitterly悲痛地；politely禮貌地；deliberately故意，蓄意，存心。8A這里指的

30、是兩個人在進(jìn)行的談話，所以選conversation。句意為：當(dāng)“我”認(rèn)為在談話過程中需要“我”作出反應(yīng)的時候，我就會(不失時機(jī)地)微笑、點(diǎn)頭、表示同意9A這里有三個并列的動作：smile，agree還有空格，四個選項(xiàng)中只有選nod“點(diǎn)頭”，表示作者同意他同學(xué)的看法。10A語境為：作者希望他同學(xué)安靜下來(quiet)，他能好好學(xué)習(xí)。11A上一段對方對自己在這次談話中的表現(xiàn)的評價，從good，以及so easy to talk to來看，很顯然是“表揚(yáng)”，所以選praise。blame責(zé)備； rudeness粗魯；flattery奉承。D項(xiàng)有很大的干擾性，但是下文的But inside, I knew it wasnt
