a. fred studied six school subjects in japan. b. fred was a quick, good language learner. c. fred lived with taros family in japan. d. fred had a good time in taros home. （c） do you need to edit your friends? is your mobile phone directory full of phone numbers of people you dont really want to talk to? do you go out with people from work or school more often than with your real friends? do you say yes to invitations because you think you should, not because you want to? if you answered yes to at least two of these questions, then perhaps you need to edit your friends. nowadays people like to spend a lot of time with people at work or classmates at school. the result is that we dont have enough time to see our real, close friends. as our lives get busier, it becomes more important to spend the little free time we have with people we really want to see, people we love and who really love us. who are the friends you need to edit? a few years ago i read a book about how to get rid of unnecessary possessions(物品). it said you should ask yourself about each thing you have: is it useful? do i really like it? do i feel better every time i look at it? if the answer is no to any one of those questions, you should throw it away. maybe we should ask similar questions about our friends. what kind of friends will you probably need to edit? sometimes its an old friend. somebody who you used to have a lot in common with, but who, when you meet now, you have very little or nothing to say to. or it might be a new friend who you get on quite well with, but who is taking up too much of your time. next time one of these people calls you and suggests a meeting, think, do i really want to see this person? and if the answer is no, say no, and make an excuse. that way youll have more time to spend with your real friends. 53. people need to edit their friends when_. a. they have moved to a different area b. they have no time with their real friends 第 8 页 共 15 页 c. some of their friends dont talk very much d. their friends are people from work or school 54. people dont need to edit their _. a. real friendsb. young friendsc. old friendsd. new friends 55. what does the writer want to tell us in paragraph 3? a. we should often throw some possessions. b. most of our friends are not necessary at all. c. we shouldnt treat our friends as possessions. d. we should ask ourselves who our real friends are. （d） children can spend hours a day looking at computer screens and other digital devices(数码设备). some eye doctors say this leads to an increase in “computer vision syndrome(电脑视力综合症).” nathan bonilla-warford is an optometrist （验光师） in tampa, florida. he has seen an increase in problems in children. “a lot more children come into the office either because their parents have noticed that they have headaches or red or watery eyes or discomfort, or because their nearsightedness appears to be increasing and theyre worried,” he says. dr. bonilla-warford says part of the problem is that children may be more likely to pay no attention to early warning signs than adults. “even if their eyes start to feel uncomfortable or they start to get a headache, theyre less likely to tell their parents, because they dont want to have the game or the computer or whatever taken away,” he explains. he says another part of the problem is that people blink （眨眼） less often when they use digital devices. he says, “a person who uses an electronic device blinks about one third as much as we normally do in everyday life. and so that can result in the front part of the eye drying and not staying protected like normal.” eye doctors offer suggestions l ike following which is known as the 20/20/20 rule. that means every twenty minutes look away twenty feet or more for at least twenty seconds from whatever device youre using. other suggestions include putting more distance between you and the device and using good lighting. of course, another way is to spend less time looking at screens. many experts say children should spend no more than two hours a day using digital deviceswith no screen time for children under two. but not all eye doctors have noticed an increase in problems in children. dr. 第 9 页 共 15 页 david hunter, from childrens hospital boston, has not seen an increase in his practice. “while it is possible to develop fatigue looking at screens for a long period of time, theres certainly no proof that it actually causes any damage（伤害） to the eyes.” he says. 56. why dont some of the children tell their parents even if their eyes feel uncomfortable or they start to get a headache? a. because they dont like their parents. b. because they dont believe their parents. c. because they dont want to lose their computers or the games. d. because their parents are not at home at that time. 57. which of the following is true according to the passage? a. dr. bonilla-warford thinks using computers causes nearsightedness. b. people keep their eyes protected against drying by blinking normally. c. children under two canwatch tvfor less than two hours a day. d. dr. david hunter says headache causes an increase in eye problems. 58. what does the underlined word “fatigue” mean? a. interest.b. ability.c. tiredness.d. difficulty. 59. what can be the best title for the passage? a. looking at screen: two hours or more b. how can children use their eyes properly c. using digital devices:advantages and disadvantages d. how much screen time is too much for children 七、阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的七、阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的 最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。 （共（共 8 分，每小题分，每小题 2 分）分） lang lang is 31 years old now, and he has already been called “the most popular pianist on the planet” byamerican television network cnn. like every successful person, lang went through years of hard and lonely practice before making his name. _60_with great talent (天赋), he won his first competition at the age of 5. langs father pushed little lang very hard to succeed. when he was nine, lang went to learn music in beijing.61but lang got fired (开除) by the piano teacher six months later. _62_ hearing about his sons failure, langs father was so angry that he told lang to jump off a building! _63_ his big break came at age 17, when he gained worldwide fame at “gala of the century”, a well-known concert in chicago, us. lang said it was his true 第 10 页 共 15 页 love of music and piano that made him keep working. a. of course lang didnt jump, and pressure (压力) soon changed to power. b. he has performed in almost every big city around the world. c. it totally destroyed (毁灭) his piano dream. d. he began to take piano lessons at the age of 3. e. his father even gave up his job and moved to beijing with his son. 八、阅读与表达（共八、阅读与表达（共 10 分，每小题分，每小题 2 分）分） 阅读短文，根据其内容回答问题。阅读短文，根据其内容回答问题。 do you have sleeping problems? is it hard for you to remember or pay attention in class? do you easily get angry? if your answer is yes, you may be under stress. stress is a normal physical response (反应) to things that make people feel worried. in china, 70 percent of the 2,000 students about to take the college or high school entrance examination are under high stress, according to a recent survey by wuhan university of hubei province. sometimes stress is good for people. it pushes people to do their best, like while getting ready before a big competition or exam. however, too much or long-term stress makes people feel a stress overload ( 负 荷过 多 ), and affects peoples health. when you feel stressed, there are some ways you can deal with (处理) it. learning to solve small problems in everyday life is helpful. it can help build confidence to move on to lifes bigger ones. try saying positive things to yourself, like “i will do the best that i can,” or “i can manage this if i take one step at a time.” that encourages you to work toward your goal
