ness. the very first recorded appearance of the elusive(难找的) lake ness monster occurred in 565 ad, when a “water beast” attacked one of st. columbas followers in the lake.the capital of scotland, edinburgh, is only its second largest city, after glasgow. like rome, edinburgh was built on seven hills and the capital has more listed buildings than anywhere in the world. famous scottish inventions include the telephone, developed by alexander graham bell in 1876, the television by john logie baird in 1925 and penicillin(青霉素), by alexander fleming in 1928. one of scotlands most famous products, whisky, was actually invented in china. it was first distilled(用蒸溜法对.提纯) by monks in ireland in the early 15th century, before reaching scotland 100 years later.many of scotlands most famous

talked about your parents responsibility for making sure you stay on track, and you get your homework done, and dont spend every waking hour in front of the tv .ive talked a lot about your governments responsibility for setting high standards. but at the end of the day, we can have the most dedicated teachers, the most supportive parents, the best schools in the worldand none of it will make a difference, none of it will matter unless all of you fulfill your responsibilities, unless you show up to those schools, unless you pay attention to those teachers, unless you listen to your parents and grandparents and other adults and put in the hard work it takes to succeed. thats what i want to focus on today: the responsibility each of you has for your education.i want to start with the responsibility you have to yourself. every single one of you has something that youre good at. every single one of you has something to offer. and you have a responsibility to yourself to discover what that is. thats the opportunity an education can provide.and no matter what you want to do with your life, i guarantee that youll need an education to do it. you want to be a doctor, or a teacher, or a police officer? you want to be a nurse or an architect, a lawyer or a member of our military? youre going to need a good education for every single one of those careers. you cannot drop out of school and just drop into a good job. youve got to train for it and work for it and learn for it.thats okay. some of the most successful people in the world are the ones whove had the most failures. j.k. rowlings who wrote harry potter- her first harry potter book was rejected 12 times before it was finally published. michael jordan was cut from his high school basketball team. he lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots during his career. but he once said, “i have failed over and over and over again in my life. and thats why i succeed.”and even when youre struggling, even when youre discouraged, and you feel like other people have given up on you, dont ever give up on yourself, because when you give up on yourself, you give up on your country.24. the passage is probably .a. a speechb. a reportc. newsd. a story25. the underlined expression “stay on track” in the first paragraph means .a. run after someone b. act correctlyc. travel by traind. race on the playground26. which of the following statements does the passage tell us?a. well begun, half done.b. never too late to mend.c. spare the rod, spoil the child.d. achievements rely on people themselves.27. the last two paragraphs tell people that .a. being refused is vital.b. being discouraged is necessary.c. love of the country is the most important.d. failure is the mother of success.celectric cars are dirty. in fact, not only are they dirty, but they might even be more dirty than their gasoline-powered cousins.people in california love to talk about “zero-emissions(排放)vehicles”, but people in california seem to have no idea about where electricity comes from. power plant mostly use fire to make it. apart from the few people who have their roofs covered with solar cells, we get our electricity from generators(发电机). generators are fueled by something-usually coal, oil, but also by heat generated in nuclear power plants. there are a few wind farms and geothermal(地热)plants as well, but by far we get electricity mainly by burning something.in other words, those “zero-emissions” cars are likely coal-burning cars. because the coal is burned somewhere else, it looks clean. it is not true. its as if the california greens are covering their eyes “if i cant see it, its not happening.” gasoline is an incredibly(极其)efficient way to power a vehicle, and a gallon of gas has a lot of energy in it. but when you take that gas(or another fuel) and first use it to make electricity, you waste a nice part of that energy, mostly in the form of wasted heatat the generator, through the transmission lines, etc.a gallon of gas may drive your car 25 miles. but the electricity you get from that gallon of gas wont get you nearly as farso electric cars burn more fuel than gasoline-powered ones. if our electricity came mostly from wind or geothermal, or solar, then an electric car truly would be clean. but for political, technical, and economic reasons, we dont use much of those energy sources.in addition, electric cars batteries which are poisonous for a long time will eventually end up in a landfill(垃圾填埋场). and finally, when cars are the polluters, the pollution is spread across all the roads. when its a power plant, though, all the junk is in one place. nature is very good at cleaning up when things are not too concentrated, but it takes a lot longer when all the garbage is in one spot.28. electric cars are dirty because .a. they pollute and waste indirectly.b. they only use electricity.c. they produce too much garbage.d. they waste electricity29. in the writers opinion, part of the gasoline used to make electricity is .a. pollutedb. wastedc. firedd. destroyed30. according to the passage, most of electricity nowadays mainly comes .a. by burningb. from the sunc. by windd. from geothermal31. it can be inferred from the passage that electric cars .a. are not popular with people.b. are expensive.c. are now environmentally-friendlyd. waste energy compared with their gasoline-powered cousins.dbeing told i would be expected to write something, i inquired what sort of writing i ought to make. they said it should be something suitable to youthsomething instructive, or something in the nature of good advice. very well. i have a few things in my mind which i have often longed to write for the instruction of the young; for it is in ones early years that such things will best take root and be most valuable. i will tell you my young friendsand the following is what i want to write.always obey your parents, when they are present.this is the best policy in the long run, because if you dont, they will make you. most parents think they know better than you do, and you can generally make more by following than you can by acting on your own better judgment.go to bed early, and get up early.this is wise. some authorities say get up with the sun; some say get up with one thing, others with another. but a lark is really the best thing to get up with. it gives you a splendid reputation with everybody to know that you get up with the lark.there are many sorts of books, but good ones are the sort for the young to read.remember that. they are a great and unspeakable means of improvement. therefore be careful in your selection, my young friends; be very careful; limit yourselves to robertsons sermons, baxters saints rest, the innocents abroad, and works of that kind.thats what i want to write. i hope you will treasure up the instructions which i have given you, and make them a guide to your feet and a light to your understanding. build your character thoughtfully and painstakingly upon these guides, and by and by, when you have got it built, you will be surprised and gratified to see how nicely and sharply it is similar to everybody elses.32. which is the best title for this passage? a. an interesting writingb. a report from a teacherc. advice to youthd. rules for students33. sermons, saints rest and the innocents abroad are probably . a. booksb. writersc. speakersd. advice34. by saying “get up with the lark”, the speaker probably means “ ”. a. form a habit b. learn to sing with a larkc. do as you pleased. get up early35. if you dont do as your parents ask you to, your parents will . a. give inb. follow youc. force you to d. look down upon you第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项是多余选项。life is short. it may feel as if it takes forever sometimes, but the reality is that you live, and a short time later, you die. it happens so quickly that many people dont even realize they had a life until its already over.1. 36 if you dont believe in yourself, nobody will. success starts in your mind, and if all youre doing is putting yourself down and predicting failure, itll become a self-fulfilling prophecy(预言). 37 , instead of not believing yourself. not only will you be happier and more successful, youll also spread it to everyone around you.2. stop being lazylazy people are annoying- its like pulling teeth and getting them to do anything. if i cant do something as simple as going to a movie with you without wasting an hour convincing you to get your lazy butt(臀部) out of bed, id rather go alone. people have enough trouble motivating themselves. 38 .3. stop wasting timeive said it before, and ill say it again. 39. dont waste your time on unproductive things. if you want to explore the worlds dark corners,
