find out where you need the most improvement: check your report card. dont just look at the 41 . check the comments your teachers write about each 42. very often when students 43 report cards, they check their marks very quickly. then they stop 44 and put them away. however, this is no right. your report cards may 45 comments from each teacher. these comments are more useful than the grades. not all comments by teachers are useful. some have a common 46 of how the class has studied in the 47 term. there may be only a few 48 on your own work, and sometimes such comments are mainly written about which. sometimes teachers comments are written in a 49 kind of secret code that i 50 “report-speak”. for example, “george has a good understanding of” it 51 good. but in fact, a “good” understanding may be the third, or fourth best result below “excellent” and “very good”. 52 you realize this, “good understanding” isnt good any more. because comments on the report card dont 53 have the information youre looking for, the 54 way to discover where you most need to improve is to ask your teachers 55 if you want to use your report card better.( )41. a. grades b. colors c. mistakes d. decisions ( )42. a. model b. behavior c. interview d. subject ( )43. a. discuss b. receive c. count d. except ( )44. a. annoying b. arguing c. raising d. reading ( )45. a. express b. include c.

tell a persons character by his or her handwriting. he often told his friends that he could tell exactly what a person was like by their handwriting.one day a woman friend brought him the exercise book of a young boy. she said that she wanted to know what balzac thought of the boys character.balzac studied the handwriting carefully for several minutes. the woman told him that the boy was not her son and that he could tell her the truth.“all right,” said balzac, “ill tell you the truth.” and he told his friend that he thought that the boy was a bad, lazy fellow, that his mother should watch him carefully, because he would be a disgrace (耻辱) to the family.“it is very strange,” said the woman smiling. “this is a page from your own exercise book, which you wrote when you were a boy.”56. what was balzac proud of? a. he was proud of his great works. b. he was proud of his ability. c. he was proud of his handwriting. d. he was proud of his character. 57. one day a woman friend brought balzac _. a. her new works b. her lovely son c. a girls handwriting d. a boys exercise book 58. after balzac studied the handwriting, he thought the boy _. a. would be successful b. would be bad c. would be dead soon d. would be famous59. who was the owner of the exercise book? a. the woman herself. b. balzac himself. c. the womans son. d. one friend of balzacs. 60. after hearing the womans words, the famous french writer would feel _. a. happy b. pleased c. angry d. sorry ban american group developed the rooftop gardening in the early 1980s. the group is known as echo. this idea was to help people living in cities who did not have land to grow vegetables. and now it is becoming more and more popular in many other countries. to build a rooftop garden, four things are necessary. you need a roof strong enough and four pieces of wood to build a box. grass cuttings in which to plant your garden and a thin piece of plastic on which to put the cut grass are also necessary.begin by testing your roof to make sure it is strong enough. cut and collect some grass. cover the roof with a thin piece of plastic. then you build a box from the four piece of wood. the box has no top or bottom. it should be about 8cm deep. it can be as long and as wide as needed. put the box on the plastic. then fill in with the cut grass. water the grass and push it down by walking on it. after about three weeks, the rooftop box is ready for planting. put the seeds directly into the wet grass. it is important that the grass is kept wet until the plants begin to grow. when the plants are growing, you will need to water them every day unless it rains. and birds must be prevented from eating the seeds or new plants. they will also need some liquid fertilizer (液体化肥). you can make your own liquid fertilizer if you can get waste from chickens. put the chicken waste in a cloth bag. then put the bag in a big container(容器) of water. after about one week, the water becomes a good liquid fertilizer. the rooftop garden is a good place to go growing peas, tomatoes and onions. if the box is deep enough, potatoes and carrots also will grow.( )61. the passage provides a way for people without land in _.a. growing rice b. planting grass c. growing vegetables d. planting flowers( )62. if you want to build a rooftop garden, you should do something except _.a. testing the roof strong enough b. putting the box on the plasticc. cutting and collecting some grassd. putting a bag in a big container( )63. after planting the seeds, grass must be kept _.a. wet b. dry c. warm d. cool( )64. _ is not necessary if you want to take care of the planted seeds.a. to fill the box with the cut grass b. to water them every dayc. some liquid fertilizer d. to prevent birds from eating(

the modern world, advertising is everywhere! some people think that ads are great. others hate ads, saying that they make our cities and countryside look ugly. many ads are aimed specifically at teenagers, and some young people see more than 100 advertisements a day. its true that some ads can be very useful. for instance, they can help you to compare two different products so that you can buy the one you really need. they can also help you save money. when prices are listed, you can go to the store with the lowest price! and also tell you when stores are having sales. however, some advertising can be confusing or misleading. sometimes the words sounds good but dont really tell you anything about the quality of the product. at other times, the picture in an ad looks a lot better than the real thing. and you have to be careful. at times an ad can lead you to buy something you dont need at all.71.in the modern world, we can see_ everywhere! some people like ads. others_
