complete opposites. people who knew them both could hardly believe they were from the same planet, let alone the same family. the boys were not unkind toward one another, but their personalities（个性）were so different that it was difficult for them to reach a decision they both liked. their mother frequently played the judge in their disagreement.ishmael, the older brother, was athletic. he played baseball, football, and basketball. isadore, the younger brother, hated sports. he was quieter and less active than his brother. he preferred spending his time on the computer, making short videos and writing short articles. ishmael loved classic rock. he listened to bands like the beatles. isadore didnt care much for those bands. he preferred music from central africa. luckily for their parents, both boys enjoyed listening to music through headphones.one other thing the brothers did agree on was that they wanted a pet. mom had resisted getting one, but after both brothers had begged, she finally agreed. “we can get a pet, as long as you two take care of it,” she said. “that means you do the feeding, you do the training, and if it needs to be walked, you do the walking. “no problem, mom,” ishmael and isadore said together. “good, we all agree,” mom said. “now, what kind of pet are we going to get?”41. the two brothers mother often had to be the judge when they _.a. played basketballb. had writing contestsc. couldnt come to an agreementd. couldnt reach a decision on headphones42. we can learn from the text that_.a. isadore is cleverer than ishmael.b. isadore and ishmael like different ball games.c. ishmael is quieter than isadore.d. isadore and ishmael have different tastes in music.43. the underlined word “resisted” in the last paragraph probably

get.c. the brothers will both be unkind to the pet.d. the brothers cant agree on the pets name.45. which of the following is the best title for the passage?a. brothers and their petb. brothers and their lifec. brothers of different personalitiesd. brothers of different hobbiesbin the fall of 1985, i was a bright-eyed girl heading off to howard university, aiming at a legal career and dreaming of sitting on a supreme court bench somewhere. twenty-one years later i am still a bright-eyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell. my grandma, an amazing woman, graduated from college at the age of 65. she was the first in our family to reach that goal. but one year after i started college, she developed cancer. i made the choice to withdraw from college to care for her. it meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait. then i got married with another dream: building my family with a combination of adopted and biological children. in 1999, we adopted our first son. to lay eyes on him was fantastic and very emotional. a year later came our second adopted boy，then followed son no. 3. in 2003, i gave birth to another boy. you can imagine how busy i became, raising four boys under the age of 8! our home was a complete zoo a joyous zoo. not surprising, i never did make it back to college full-time. but i never gave up on the dream either. i had only one choice: to find a way. that meant taking as few as one class each semester. the hardest part was feeling guilty about the time i spent away from the boys. they often wanted me to stay home with them. there certainly were times i wanted to quit, but i knew i should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives. in 2007, i graduated from the university of north carolina. it took me over 21 years to get my college degree! i am not special, just single-minded. it always struck me that when youre looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge, but when youre in the midst of it, it just seems normal. everything you want wont arrive in your life on one day. its a process. remember: little steps add up to big dreams.46. when the author went to howard university, her dream was to be _. a. a writer b. a teacher c. a judge d. a doctor47. why did the author quit school in her second year of college? a. she wanted to study by herself. b. she fell in love and got married. c. she suffered from a serious illness. d. she decided to look after her grandma.48. what can we learn about the author from paragraphs 4 and 5? a. she was busy yet happy with her family life. b. she ignored her guilty feeling for her sons. c. she wanted to remain a full-time housewife. d. she was too confused to make a correct choice.49. what does the author mostly want to tell us in the last paragraph? a. failure is the mother of success. b. little by litter, one goes far. c. every coin has two sides. d. well begun, half done.50. which of the following can best describe the author? a. caring and determined.b. honest and responsible. c. ambitious and sensitived. innocent and single-mindedcjust as the teacher hands out the spelling test, you see jeff pull out a small piece of paper with a lot of small words on it. jeff hides the note into his hand but soon takes it out again. while hes taking the test, you see him looking back and forth between the teacher and his paper. theres no mistaking it hes cheating.cheating can happen in a lot of different ways. when people cheat, its not fair to other people, like the kids who studied for the test or who the true winners of a game were.many people like the action of cheating. it makes difficult things seem easy, like getting all the right answers on the test. but it doesnt solve the problem of not knowing the material and it wont help on the next testunless the person cheats again. some people lose respect for cheaters and think less of them. the cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really earning that good grade. and, if they get caught cheating, they will be in trouble at school, and maybe at home, too.some kids cheat because theyre busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending the time studying. other kids might feel like they cant pass the test without cheating. even when there seems to be a “good reason” for cheating, cheating isnt a good idea.if you were sick or upset about something the night before and couldnt study, it would be better to talk with the teacher about this. and if you dont have enough time to study for a test because of swim practice, you need to talk with your parents about how to balance swimming and school. a kid who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so they can find some solutions together. talking about these problems and working them out will feel better than cheating.51. the author thinks that when kids cheat in class, _.a. it is unfair to other people b. it does harm to their heathc. teachers should punish them d. teachers shouldnt stop them at once52. some students like cheating mainly because _.a. the material in the test is very difficult b. they want to do better than the othersc. cheating can make hard things seem very easyd. they have little time to study their lessons53. the fifth paragraph mainly tells us _.a. cheating isnt a good idea b. why kids cheat in the testc. some kids cant pass the test without cheating d. some kids dont spend the time studying54. we can learn from the passage_.a. cheaters are often thought highly of b. kids cheat in the test because of swim practicec. parents whose kids cheat are often in troubled. people show no respect for those who cheat55. those who cheat are advised to _.a. spend more time on school than on sports b. find good solutions instead of cheatingc. try hard to be intelligent rather than lazy d. ask their classmates for good methods of study dusing too much water or throwing rubbish into our rivers are clear ways that humans can put our water supply in danger, but we also affect our water supply in less obvious ways. you may wonder how paving(铺砌) a road can lead to less useable fresh water. a major part of the water we use every day is groundwater. groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers. it comes from underground. the more roads and parking lots we pave, the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater.human activity is not responsible for all water shortages. drier climates are of course more likely to have droughts than areas with more rainfall, but in any case, good management can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs. thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference, too. in the united states, a family of four can use 1.5 tons of water a day! this shows how much we depend on water to live, but theres a lot we can do to lower the number.you can take steps to save water in your home. to start with, use the same glass for your drinking water all day. wash it only once a day. run your dishwasher (洗碗机) only when it is full. help your parents fix any leaks in your home. you can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling batteries instead of throwing them away.56. which of the following is most likely to lead to less groundwater?a. using river water. b. throwing batteries away.c. paving parking lots. d. throwing rubbish into lakes.57. what can be inferred from the text?a. all water shortages are due to human behavior.b. it takes a lot of effort to meet our water needs.c. there is much we can do to reduce family size.d. the average family in america makes proper use of water.58. the last paragraph is intended to .a. suggest what we do to save water at homeb. tell us how to run a dishwasher c. prove what drinking glass is best for us d. show us how to fix leaks at home59. which of the following is not true?a. paving roads can cause less groundwater. b. it is human activities that cause all water shortages.c. americans use too much water in their daily life.d. throwing batteries away can pollute our water supply.60. the text is mainly about .a. why paving roads reduces our water b. how much we depend on water to live c. why droughts occur more in dry climates d. how human activity affects our water supply第二节
