about 36 around them. they are 37 to learn anything that amazes them. they have so many 38 that they keep on asking. they can bore the 39 all day long with many 40 questions which they will never feel bored with. why? this is because learning is their 41 , perhaps an instinct(本能) of human beings. they just cant help. but 42 , they feel bored with learning, especially when learning becomes a boring 43 for them, especially after school has become a 44 of their life, especially when they have to 45 teachers who tell them again and again to 46 to recite and memorize things they dont want to learn, and especially 47 they realize school is not what they once 48 to be but something that, according to their parents, they must rely on in order to 49 a good fame or a good job or a good future. that is to say, learning has become a 50 , which they are forced or 51 to face. so it is the teachers and parents who have thrown the heavy 52 on the children. and meanwhile, the competitive society is also to blame. the children have been 53 of their pleasure and happiness that they could have enjoyed from the natural learning. therefore, my 54 to the students learning is that they 55 enjoy learning, enjoy the pleasure that they could feel from learning itself. find back the long lost desire and curiosity of learning in their childhood. 36anothingbanythingceverything dsomething37acurious

night has an interesting history. in 1605, a man called guy fawkes and some of his followers tried to blow up the british houses of parliament（议会）. they hoped that if they succeeded, they could take control of england and become its new rulers（统治者）. guy fawkes and his men dug a tunnel under one of the parliament buildings, and hid 36 barrels（桶）of gunpowder（火药） there. fortunately, on november 5th, guy fawkes was caught just before he was able to light the fuse（导火线）. he and all his followers were burned to death. today, people in britain celebrate guy fawkes capture（抓捕） by lighting fires and holding fireworks displays. halloween is celebrated in britain on the night of october 31st. there are many customs associated with halloween. one of these is the game of trick or treat. children, dressed up as witches, ghosts or monsters, knock on their neighbors doors, and shout trick or treat! if they are lucky, they receive a treat a bar of chocolate, or some sweets or some money. if, however, their neighbors refuse to give them anything, they play a trick on them. they might spray their front door with shaving foam（剃须膏）, or knock on their doors and then run away!another game played at halloween is bobbing for apples. in this game, a bowl is filled with water, and apples are placed in it. children then have to take a bite from one of the apples without using their hands.

evening, 15-year-old rashida returns home from school, changes out of her uniform（校服）, and rushes to a neighboring farm to help her mother harvest vegetables. her father is disabled, so the modest profit the two of them earn must cover food, clothing and other necessities for all seven children and their parents. despite having precious little time to study, rashida is one of the top students at her junior secondary school. but with so much responsibility on her small shoulders, she admits that it is sometimes hard for her to imagine a more promising future.last year, rashida was invited to join 155 other girls at camfed ghanas first girls career camp, a program designed to inspire girls growing up in the countrys northern region to dream big, and to support them to pursue those dreams. “we organized this camp because we wanted to let girls know that even if they are struggling with poverty, their lives will not be defined by limitations,” says dolores dickson, camfed ghanas executive director.over the course of five days, the camp led the junior and secondary school students through a range of experiences and career opportunities that were entirely new to them. dr. agnes apusiga, a lecturer from the university of development studies, ran the workshop on goal-setting and career choices, describing the universities and training colleges in ghana that could help them achieve their dreams. participants then visited the university for development studies, where they toured the medical school and science labs. another highlight was a workshop at the computer lab at tamale secondary school. many of the girls had studied information technology from a book but had never before seen a computer. “when the girls arrived at camp, they were not ambitious, because they didnt have any idea what the world held for them,” says eugenia ayagiba, project officer with camfed ghana. “many had hardly traveled beyond their own villages.”“i think the most important thing that happened at the camp is that we opened a window of hope for a group of girls coming from backgrounds of poverty,” says eugenia. for rashida, who has been laughed at in the past by her schoolmates because of her fathers disability, the experience was important. “she told one of the camp mentors(辅导员) that when she is at school, she often feels like a misfit, and she prefers to keep to herself,” says eugenia. “but at the camp, it was different. she made friends with girls who have similar struggles. she took part in every single activity, every single game. on the last day, she said to her mentor, the camp has challenged me to study hard. now i see that there is light at the end of the tunnel.61how many people are there in rashidas family?aseven beight cnine dten 62according to the passage, camfed ghanas first girls career camp is aa program to help poor girls to have ambition ba program to help poor girl students to get university educationca program to help poor girls to study

ghanadstudents in ghana dream bigcspace is a dangerous place, not only because of meteors(流星) but also because of rays from the sun and other stars. the atmosphere again acts as our protective blanket on earth. light gets through, and this is essential(不可缺少的) for plants to make the food which we eat. heat, too, makes our environment endurable, various kinds of rays come through the air from outer space, but enormous quantities of radiation from the sun are screened off (用屏幕隔开). as soon as men leave the atmosphere they are exposed to this radiation but their spacesuit or the walls of their spacecraft, if they are inside, do prevent a lot of radiation damage. radiation is the greatest known danger to explorers in space. the unit of radiation is called “rem”. scientists have reason to think that a man can put up with far more than 0.1 rem without being damaged; the figure of 60 rems has been agreed on. the trouble is that it is extremely difficult to be sure about radiation damage a person may feel perfectly well, but the cells of his or her sex organs may be damaged, and this will not be discovered until the birth of deformed(畸形的) children or even grandchildren. missions of the apollo flights have had to cross belts of high radiation and, during the outward and return journeys, the apollo crew accumulated(积累) a large amount of rems. so far, no dangerous amounts of radiation have been reported, but the apollo missions have been quite short. we simply dont know yet how men are going to get on when they spent weeks and months outside the protection of the atmosphere, working in a space laboratory. drugs might help to decrease the damage done by radiation, but no really effective ones have been found so far. 66. according to the first paragraph, the atmosphere is essential to man in that _. a. it protects him against the harmful rays from space. b. it provides sufficient(充分的) light for plant growth. c. it supplies the heat necessary for human survival. d. it screens off the falling meteors.67. we know from the passage that_. a. exposure(暴露) to even tiny amounts of radiation is fatal(致命的) . b. the effect of exposure to radiation is slow in coming. c. radiation is avoidable in space exploration. d. astronauts in spacesuit neednt worry about radiation damage.68. the harm radiation had done to the apollo crew members _. a. is insignificant(不重要的) b. seems overestimated c. is enormous d. remains unknown69. it can be inferred from the passage that _. a. the apollo mission was very successful. b. protection from space radiation is no easy job. c. astronauts will have deformed children or grandchildren. d. radiation is not a threat to well-protected space explorers.70. the best title for this passage would be _. a. the atmosphere and our environment b. research on radiation c. effects of space radiation d. importance of protection against radiationd.japanese high school students either walk or ride bicycles if the distance is not too great. in other cases, students must take public buses and trains. after junior high school, students attend schools based on their high school entranc
