It is the color of most growing plants, too.Sometimes, the word green means young, fresh and growing. Sometimes, it describes something that is not yet finished or plants that are not ripe.For example, a greenhorn is someone who has no experience, who is new to a situation. In the fifteenth century, a greenhorn was a young cow or ox whose horns had not yet developed. A century or so later, a greenhorn was a soldier who had not yet had any experience in war. By the eighteenth century, a greenhorn had the meaning it has today-a person who is new in a job.About one hundred years ago, greenhorn was a popular expression in the American west. Old-timers used it to describe a man who had just arrived from one of the big cities in the east. The greenhorn didnt have the skills that he would need to live in the hard, rough country.Someone who has the ability to grow plants well is said to have a green thumb. The expression comes from the early nineteen hundreds.A person with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes plants grow quickly and well. You might say that the woman next door has a green thumb if her garden continues to grow long after your plants have died.The Green Revolution is the name which was given some years ago to the development of new kinds of rice and other grains. The new plants produced much larger crops. The Green Revolution was the result of hard work by agricultural scientists who had green thumbs.21. According to the passage, a greenhorn means_ now.A. a young cow or ox whose horns have not yet developed B. a soldier who has not had any experience in war C. a person who is new in a job D. a man who doesnt have the skills to live in the country22. The meaning of the underlined word “ripe” in the second paragraph is _.A. 未完成的B. 成熟的C. 青涩的 D. 老练的23. Which of the following about the Green Revolution is NOT right? _.A. If there werent the Green Revolution, we would have no rice to eat.B. The expression “the Green Revolution” appeared several years ago. C. Because of the Green Revolution, we have more kinds of rice and other grains.D. Agricultural scientists with green thumbs started the Green Revolution.24. The main idea of the passage is _.A. a greenhorn B. a green thumb C. the Green Revolution D. the word “green” and its storyBBefore she appeared on the reality show (真人秀) Britains Got Talent, Susan Boyle was just an ordinary middle-aged British woman. Now all this is going to change.She lives in a house with her cat Pebbles in a tiny Scottish town. Because of learning difficulties, she doesnt have much education. But what she does have is a very good voice. As a kid, she sang in church and choirs and school plays. For a living, she sang at local pubs.When she took the stage on April 10th her hair was untidy and her clothes seemed just one step up from rags. The audience laughed at her.But then she opened her mouth. A few bars into the song and the laughing audience went silent. A beautiful voice was singing I Dreamed a Dream from the musical Les Miserables. Everyone was amazed. At the end of her song, the audience jumped to their feet and applauded wildly.Almost overnight, Susan became a household name. She won fans and millions of admirers. Her online videos have drawn over 85.2 million hits.Susans story proved the truth of an old saying: “Never judge a book by its cover.” Susan may look ordinary, and doesnt have much dress sense, but she can certainly sing.Susans fans admire her courage, as much as they do her voice. She has experienced mockery and many disappointments, but her love for music has kept her going, which is worth anyones respect.25. The audience jumped and applauded wildly because_.A. she looked very funnyB. she sang so well that everyone was amazedC. her hair was untidy and her clothes seemed just one step up from ragsD. she made a foolish mistake in the end26.

The passage is mainly about_.A. how to win fansB. a womans simple lifeC. how to sing wellD. a womans sudden successCAmericans are a strange people. They work like mad, then give away much of what they earn. They play until they are exhausted, and call this a vacation. They live to think of themselves as hard-hearted business men, yet they are push-overs for any hard luck story. They have the biggest of nearly everything including government, motor cars and debts. Yet they like to think of themselves as little people, average men, and they would like to cut everything down to their own size. They show off their tall buildings, high mountains, long rivers, big state, the best country, the best world, the best heaven. Yet they also have the most traffic deaths, the most waste, and the most liars.When they meet, they are always telling each other, “Take it easy,” then they rush off like crazy in opposite directions. They play games as if they were fighting a war, and fight wars as if playing a game. They marry more, and go broken more often. They love children, animals, mother, work, excitement, noise, nature, television shows, comedy, high pace, sports, the underdog, the hero, the flag, Christmas, jazz, shapely women and muscular men, classical recordings, crowds, comics, cigarettes, warm houses in winter and cool ones in summer, thick beefsteaks, coffee, ice cream, informal dress, plenty of running water, do-it-yourself, and a working week limited to forty hours or less.They crowd their highways with cars while complaining about the traffic, troop to movies and television while blaming the quality and the advertisements, go to church but dont care much for sermons (布道), and drink too much in the hope of relaxingonly to find themselves drunk into even bigger dreams.There is of course, no typical American. But if you added them all together and then divided by 226, 000, 000 they would look something like what this chapter has tried to describe.28. What may be the best title of the passage? _.A.

By giving examples.C. By experimenting.D. By telling stories.DWhat are the two different things that make human different from other animals? One is language, and the other is music. It is true that some animals can sing. However, the songs of animals are very simple. It is also true that humans, not animals, have developed musical instruments.Music is clearly different from language. However, people can use music to communicate with others, especially their emotions. When music is combined with speech, its a very powerful form of communication.If music is truly different from speech, then we should process music and language in different parts of the brain. The scientific studies have proved that it is true. For example, Vissarion Shebalin, a Russian composer, had a stroke (中风) in1953. It injured the left side of his brain. He couldnt speak or understand speech. However, he still could compose music until his death. On the other hand, sometimes strokes cause people to lose their musical ability, but they can still speak and understand speech.Why does music have a strong effect on us physically and emotionally? Thats a hard question to answer. Geoffrey Miller, a researcher at a university, thinks that music and love have a strong connection. Music requires a special talent, practice and physical ability. For example, playing a musical instrument requires fine, muscular control. You also need good memory to remember the notes. And playing those notes correctly suggests that your hearing is in excellent condition. Finally, when a man sings to the woman he loves, it may be a way of showing off.However, Millers theory still doesnt explain why certain combinations of sounds influence our emotions so deeply. For scientists, this is clearly an area that needs further research.32. We can learn from the first paragraph that_.A. music is more important than language B. humans music is the same as animalsC. animals are cleverer than humans in musicD. music also makes man different from animals33. The example of Vissarion Shebalin is used to show that_.A. he was the luckiest person in the worldB. he was really interested in composing musicC. music and language are the same thing for some people D. the brain processes music and language in different parts34. Playing a musical instrument requires the following things except _. A. good hearingB. a sensitive noseC. a good memory D. fine muscular control35. According to the last paragraph, scientists _. A. are losing their interest in studying musicB. have difficulty in doing research on music C. have known everything about musicD. dont know how music affects our emotions第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。What affects our self-esteem（自尊）?Puberty（青春期）and development. Some people struggle with their self-esteem and body image when they begin puberty. 36 These changes, combined with wanting to feel accepted by our friends, mean it can make us want to compare ourselves with others. The trouble with that is, not everyone grows or develops at the same time or in the same way.Media images and other outside influences. Our early teens are a time when we become more aware of celebrities (名人) and media images as well as how other kids look and how we fit in with others. 37 All of this can affect how we feel about ourselves and our bodies even as we grow into our teens.Families and schools. Family-life can sometimes influence our body images. 38 Family members might struggle with their own body image or criticize their kids looks. This can all influence a persons self-esteem, especially if theyre sensitive to others comments, even their classmates. 39 Although these often come from ignorance, sometimes they can affect body images and self-esteem.Healthy self-esteem. If you have a positive body image, you probably like and accept yourself the way you are, even if you dont fit some media ideals. This healthy attitude allows you to explore other aspects of growing up, such as developing good friendships, becoming more independent, and challenging yourself physically and mentally. 40A. Friendship is important to our school life.B. Its a time when the body goes through many changes.C. Teens may experience many problems when growing up.D.
