We were surprised that he was still teaching in school. My best friend was telling me that the teacher was trying to forget the pain of losing his mother and trying to be strong in the middle of teaching.The teacher was such a warm-hearted person and we figured that we should give him a lot of love and good cheer. That night after school, my best friend and I thought about our teacher as well as his beloved mother and then we came up with an idea.When we went back to school yesterday, we gave him cheer-up cards which we had taken time to decorate with flowers, hearts and peace signs. As we handed the cards to him, we could both see the light in his eyes. The smiles on his face showed how much he appreciated what we did for him. The whole atmosphere was very warm and loving, and its hard to express in words.This morning, when we both went to see the teacher again, he was so happy, and gave us both a hug. This made us feel that we just might have made his day, and that he was going to be okay.With that, I want to remind you to take the time to smile at the ones you love, be extra generous with hugs, kisses, things of that lovely nature! Life is so precious (宝贵的), so let us be happy and enjoy the gift of life.56. What made the author and her best friend surprised?A. Their teacher never cared about his mother.B.

Rapid global warming is likely to reduce crop production in the tropics and subtropics (热带和亚热带地区), according to Professor David Battisti of the University of Washington.The most extreme summers of the last century will become common, he says. We must immediately create crops that can bear heat and drought if we are to adapt (适应) in time, he writes in Science journal. “The stresses on global food production from temperature alone are going to be huge,” said Mr Battisti. “And that doesnt take into account water supplies stressed by the higher temperatures.” He worked with Professor Rosamond Naylor on Food Security and the Environment, to examine the influence of climate change on the worlds food supplies. They predict there is a greater than 90% probability that by 2100, the average growing-season temperatures in the tropics and subtropics will be higher than any temperatures recorded there to date. “We are taking the worst of what weve seen historically and saying that in the future it is going to be a lot worse unless there is some kind of adaptation,” said Professor Naylor. “This is a powerful reason for us to invest (投资) in adaptation, because it is clear that this is the direction we are going in terms of temperature and it will take decades to develop new food crop varieties that can better bear a warmer climate.”In the tropics, the higher temperatures could be expected to cut production of the primary food crops by 20-40%, the researchers said. Rising temperatures are also likely to reduce soil moisture (湿度), cutting production even further.Three billion people live in the tropics and subtropics now, and their number is expected nearly to double by the end of the century. “You are talking about hundreds of millions of additional people looking for food because they wont be able to find it where they find it now,” said Professor Battisti. Crop failures would not be limited to the tropics, the scientists concluded. 63. According to Professor David Battisti, what should be done to deal with crops reduction caused by global warming?A. To plant more crops.B. To develop new crops.C. To control population growth.D. To improve farming technology.64. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 5 refer to?A. To reduce the temperature.B. New food crop variety.C. To invest in adaptation.D. Some kind of adaptation.65. We can know from the text that _.A. the number of people living in the tropics is reducingB. temperatures will rise most in the tropics C. crop failures will be a global problemD. new food crop varieties will be developed soon66. The text intends to tell us that _.A. our world is becoming warmer and warmerB. high temperatures may cause food shortagesC. the consequences of global warmingD. the ways to adapt to high temperaturesD AfricaTown is the place in Mobile, Alabama, along the Gulf Coast where the last cargo (一货轮的) of African slaves landed in 1860. Their landing marked the last record of carrying Africans to the United States for the purpose of slavery.The history of AfricaTown, USA, began with Ghana, West Africa, near the present city of Tamale in 1859. The tribes (部落) of Africa were fighting against each other then. The Tarkbar tribe was defeated by the Dahomey tribe, and the survivors were taken to Whydah, and sold for $100 each. Then they were taken to the United States on board the schooner (纵帆船) named Clotilde, under the control of William Foster. He had been employed by Captain Timothy Meaher, who had built the schooner Clotilde in Mobile in 1856.In the 1850s there was much opposition to reopening the African slave trade, which had been outlawed since 1808. So Meaher and Foster secretly planned the journey of the Clotilde for the purpose of bringing an illegal cargo of slaves back to Mobile. But their plan was discovered. William Foster entered Mobile Harbor on the night of July 9, 1860. He transferred the slaves to a riverboat and hid them in the fields. He then burned the Clotilde and sank it. The African slaves were sent to those having an interest in the voyage, with 32 living in Meahers houses at Magazine Point, three miles north of Mobile. This formed the center of what came to be known, and still is known, as AfricaTown.AfricaTown is unique in that it represents (代表) a group of Africans who were forcefully removed from their homeland, sold into slavery, and then formed their own com-munity, all the while keeping a strong sense of African culture. This sense of culture and community continues to be popular today, more than 150 years after the landing of the Clotilde in Mobile Bay.67. The first people of AfricaTown came from _.A. Mobile B. the Dahomey tribeC. Whydah D. the Tarkbar tribe68. The schooner Clotilde was made in _.A. 1808 B. 1856 C. 1859 D. 186069. The schooner Clotilde was burnt to _.A. reduce the travel costB. avoid being foundC. show determinationD. burn the slaves to death70. According to the text, in AfricaTown _.A. African culture is largely preservedB. people still want to go back to their homelandC. the history of slavery has already been forgottenD. people dont socialize with other communities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。选项中有两项为多余选项。Kids who have autism (自闭症) see the world differently than other people do, so they sometimes react to it in unexpected ways. 71 She hopes that people can understand autism and treat those who have autism with respect.
