returning from my aunts house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for america. we were on the bus then. i was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. i remember that i could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which i listened every morning.i do not remember myself crying for this reason again. in fact, i think i cried very little when i was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. when we were leaving i thought about all the places i was going to see-the strange and magical places i had known only from books and pictures. the country i was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then.the four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. for the first two years in new york i was really losthaving to study in three schools as a result of family moves. i did not quite know what i was or what i should be. mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. some time passed before my stepfather and i got used to each other. i was often sad, and saw no end to the hard times.my responsibilities in the family increased a lot since i knew english better than everyone else at home. i wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.from my experiences i have learned one important rule: almost all common troubles eventually go away! something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! i believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy.26how did the author get to know america? a. from her relatives. b. from her mother. c. from books and pictures. d. from radio programs.27upon leaving for america the author felt_. a. confused b. excited c. worried d. amazed28for the first two years in new york, the author _. a. often lost her way b. did not think about her future c. studied in three different schools d. got on well with her stepfather29what can we learn about the author from paragraph 4? a. she worked as a translator. b. she attended a lot of job interviews. c. she paid telephone bills for her family. d. she helped her family with her english.30the author believes that_.a. her future will be free from troubles b. it is difficult to learn to become patient c. there are more good things than bad things d. good things will happen if one keeps tryingbthe uk has a well-respected higher education system and some of the top universities and research institutions in the world. but to those who are new to it all, sometimes it can be confusing. october is usually the busiest month in the college calendar. universities have something called freshers week for their newcomers. its a great opportunity to make new friends, join lots of clubs and settle into university lifehowever, having just left the comfort of home and all your friends behind, the prospect（前景）of meeting lots of strangers in big halls can be nerve-wracking（令人头痛的）. where do you start? who should you make friends with? which clubs should you join?luckily, there will be thousands of others in the same boat as you worrying about starting their university social life on the right foot. so just take it all in slowly. dont rush into anything that youll regret for the next three years.here is some top advice from past students on how to survive freshers week：learn rules. make sure you know british social etiquette（礼节）. have a few wine glasses and snacks handy for your housemates and friends.be kind. sometimes cups of tea or even slices of toast can give you a head start in making friends.be sociable. the more active you are, the more likely youll be to meet new people than those who never leave their room.bring a doorstop. keep your door open when youre in and that sends positive messages to your neighbors that youre friendly.so with a bit of clever planning and effort, freshers week can give you a great start to your university life and soon youll be passing on your experience to next years new recruits31which of the following statements is false according to the passage？aoctober is generally the busiest month for universitiesbits a good idea to have a doorstop.ca bit of planning can make freshers week easier.dthe first week of your every year at university is called freshers week32the underlined word “recruits” in the last paragraph refers to acourses bfreshers cneighbors dchallenges33we can infer from the 4th paragraph that athe newcomers usually miss the days living at homebmost of the students in the uk spend three years in universitiescmany freshers are worried about how to fit university lifedall the new students will make new friends and join certain clubs34why does the author suggest having wine glasses and snacks handy？ato pass the busy university lifebto help make friends with other fresherscto show yourself a drinker as othersdto pass the time in a happy way35the main purpose of the passage is to atell the newcomers how to make a new start in universitiesbintroduce something about higher education system of the ukcdiscuss something about the freshers week in the ukdadvise the freshmen how to behave well in the beginningcis war unavoidable? can war be prevented? history tells that there were wars, great or small, in every century, in every decade. throughout the ages, from the stone age to the atomic age, men have been fighting, first with swords and shields(盾), then with guns and cannons, and now, hydrogen bombs and missiles are used for military purpose. but, in spite of all these, it is still my belief that war can be prevented and peace can be won, but it requires the effort of every one of us. i am sure that we would not like to experience another world war. if it ever happens, two-thirds of the world and much of the civilization which men have gained through time, patience and effort will be destroyed. will then the remaining one-third of the world be able to survive on its own? our task now is not to blame the past, but to plan for the future. if there is peace in the world, men can use their rockets to explore the mystery of space, their submarines to explore the depth of the sea, their missiles to deliver mails and their fine equipment to penetrate(穿透) the jungles of africa, instead of using them military. governments can use their money to build more schools, so that more children can be educated to be useful citizens. scientists can use atomic energy to propel(推动) steamships and planes. they can also design new machines to increase the production of goods and thus improve the way of living of the people. how can a peaceful world be achieved? it requires, in my opinion, the understanding and friendship between all people from all nations. let no one suffer discrimination by reason of color, race, religion, or national origin. let the rich support the poor and the strong help the weak. we know that neither peace nor such a dream world can come true in a day or a month. it may even take decades or centuries. but let us plan and begin now.36. the best title for this passage is _.a. the past and the future b. to die or to survivec. war and peace d. understanding and friendship37. in the writers opinion, _. a. it is too difficult to achieve peace b. peace can be won through the efforts of all human beings c. another world war is inevitable d. wars will always exist in the world38. we can infer from the passage that _. a. wars were not expensive in the past b. wars can promote the development of weapons c. things for military use can be transformed to peaceful use d. as long as there are wars, peoples way of living cannot be improved39. what should we do to achieve peace? a. spend more money educating children. b. stop military exploration c. call on people to help each other d. act from right now on.40. which word can best describe the writers picture of the future of the world?a. optimistic b. pessimistic c. imaginative d. disappointingddue to the increasing number of violence acts produced in schools all over the world，more and more parents prefer to have their children educated at home rather than at school. this way they can assure their safety and well-being，although teachers and school representatives are trying to improve the situation in schools by increasing the number of the persons in charge with the safety of the studentsthe main reason for violence acts are the films and cartoons that fill the childrens timethey want to do everythingthey watch on tv and never think at the consequences，and they may hurt a classmate or a teacheron the other hand, parents are not fully satisfied with the childrens results obtained in classes and they consider private classes would have better resultswhen a teacher has to watch 30 students in class he cant probably see what each of them is doing，how he is writing，or if he understands the explanationsat home the teacher can explain in details everything the child doesnt understand as many times as he considers properand many timesthe child grows fond of the teacher at home，who becomes his best friend，and who helps him whenever he needs someone to talk to however, the best solution would be a mixture between the education received at school and that at home，because school makes children communicate and socializekeeping a child at home for fear there might happen something bad to himonly makes the childs character weak and prevents him from knowing what real life isstaying in a crystal ball only does harm to the childall in allschools have been created to help children，not to harm them，so its best to keep children in these special places，where they learn，laugh，have fun and make new friends41the writers purpose in writing the text is to ateach parents the ways to keep theft children safe bshow solutions to developing childrens character cexplain the main reason for violence acts in schools danalyze an education problem and give opinions42parents prefer to have their children educated at home because the following except that_. amore and more violence acts occur in schools bparents want to improve their childrens grades cparents are concerned about their childrens safety dthe education system is far from satisfactory 43what does“a crystal ball”in the passage refer to?aa toy that can be used for entertainment ba safe and comfortable environment can object that is made of crystalda setback that is hard to overcome44we call infer from the passage that aviolence tv programs have bad effects on childrens behaviorbthe teacher at home is more patient than the teacher at schoolcchildren today are weak from lack of sense of right and wrongdthere are too many students in class for a teacher to teach45which of the following might be the best title of the passage? aadvantages and disadvantages of private classes bwho is to blame, parents or schools? cwhich is better, school study or home study dthe
