D. Helpful readers.B My cell phone rang while I was working on my computer. I looked at the phone and saw it was my 17-year-old son, Tom. I quickly picked it up. “Mom, I got a 71 on the test. I did it.” With those few words, I could feel my heart start to pound. Living in New York State, students cannot graduate from high school unless they pass at least five exams: one in English, one in science, two in history and one in math. For most students, who work hard, attend class, and do their homework like my son, it isnt that hard. But for Tom, who is dyslexic (朗读困难), it is such a real challenge that some teachers have feared he would never be able to even attempt, never mind achieve. We were honest with him about his trouble, letting him know that there was nothing to be ashamed of. Some people learn differently. If he was willing to work, we would help him find a way to do as much as he could in his academic career. All that was standing in his way was this math test. He had taken it three times and did better each time, but he continued to fail. He was starting to get a bit tired of me saying this was a marathon not a sprint(冲刺). My heart broke each time we would get the failing results. “Mom, thanks. I love you. Thanks for believing I could do this.” For one of the few times in my life, I really had nothing left to say. For that one brief moment I knew, really, really, knew that everything we did to help our son achieve what he wanted was worth it.24. What does the underlined word “pound” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Sink suddenly. B. Beat wildly C. Ache violently. D. Break totally.25. According to the text, Tom was weak in _. A. English B. science C. history D. math中&华&资*源%库 26. How did the writer feel when she wrote this text? A. She felt proud and satisfied. B. She felt surprised and bitter. C.

Failure Is the Mother of Success D. Life Is Not a Sprint but a ManathonC中&华&资*源%库 Law school is the place where lawyers learn all the tricks of their trade. I attended a legal class at Wuthering Heights University. The instructor said, “ Today were going to take an assumed case. A man named Hatfield is charging his surgeon with improper treatment because his doctor cut off the wrong leg.”“Tina, youre the lawyer for Hatfield. Tommy, you are the insurance companys defense lawyer. Tina, you go first.”Tina said, “ Well, first I have to prove the doctor didnt know one leg from the other. I use charts, X-rays and slides to show the leg the surgeon removed was a healthy one. To do this, I have to call expert witnesses to testify to this effect and I will put my client on the stand and he will testify he could not find work as a dancer after his leg was removed.”“Tommy, you object because that fact is irrelevant.”Tommy said, “ I object.”The professor continued, “ I will be the judge in this case,” and said, “ objection ineffective.” “I will tell the jury(陪审团)to ignore the defense objection. As soon as the defense lawyer says it, the jury will remember his statement despite the judges instructions . Now, Tommy, its the defenses turn.”“Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, Hatfield signed a contract giving permission to cut off his leg and did not specify which one. Once he signed the paper it was no longer the surgeons responsibility.”Tommy said, “ I would like to show proof A.”“What is it?” The professor asked. “When Hatfield went to college, he failed history and was kicked off the football team.”Tina said, “ Objection. His school grades have nothing to do with his leg.”The professor said, “ Now class, pay attention. This is very important for anyone who is defending a client in this kind of case. You have to destroy the reputation of your opponents(对手) every chance you can. I hope you have learned something today. As the great lawyer O. J. Simpson once said, Winning is everything.”28. What happened in the case raised by the professor? A.The surgeon denied removing a wrong leg. B.A man was charged by the insurance company. C.The surgeons reputation was destroyed. D.The doctor was charged with improper treatment.29. Tina said she would ask Hatfield to prove he cant find his job so that_. A. she would get objection and eventually fail in the case. B. she can win the case with the support from the merciful and trustful jury. C. shed like to impress the jury with his suffering due to the surgeons error. D. the surgeon would shoulder the responsibility for his career in the future.30. What can be concluded from the passage? A. In order to win the cases, lawyers will often use some tricks. B. Ineffective objection of the defense will be ignored by the jury. C. It is necessary to ruin others reputation as possible as you can. D.Winning is everything in law.31. What is the best title for the passage? A. An assumed court B. An efficient way to win C. An improper treatment D. A tricky professorDYou are what you eat. This saying has provided scientists with clues about the diet of hominids(原始人类) our early relatives of 3 million years ago. Studying carbon atoms(碳原子)locked up in tooth enamel(珐琅质), two researchers argue against the widely held belief that hominids ate little more than fruits and leaves. Sponheimer and Julia Lee-Thorp of the University of Cape Town, South Africa, report their findings in Fridays Science. There arent many clues for us to know the life of early hominids. The shape of hominids teeth offered the first clues. Large and flat-edged with thick enamel, they looked perfect for eating nuts and fruits, different from the sharp teeth one would want to tear into meat with. The first stone tools, which would help in eating meat, didnt appear until about half a million years later. Scientists have also found marks on hominids teeth with patterns very similar to those on the teeth of modern-day fruit eaters. Sponheimer and Lee-Thorp tried a new method, looking at the chemical composition(组成) of the tooth enamel. They studied the enamel for the carbon-13. Animals that eat grasses have higher carbon-13 levels than those eating fruits and other plants. What they found was that the teeth to the hominids had an in-between amount of carbon-13, which meant not only they were eating fruits, they were eating a lot of grasses, or animals eating grasses. The lower carbon-13 levels could also come from eating certain types of insects. But there are people who understand differently. Prof. Ungar of the University of Arkansas agrees the study offers new suggestions of hominids diet, but disagrees about the suggestion that meat could explain the lower carbon-13 levels. One suggestion might be true though take good care of your teeth. In 3 million years, a scientist might be using them to figure out what you ate for dinner.32. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Protect Your Teeth. B. Where the Hominids lived. C. What the Hominids Ate.D. The Formation of Teeth Enamel.33. Before the two scientists findings, most people thought that hominids_.A. used tools to dig grassB. had sharp teeth C. lived half a million years agoD. ate mainly fruits and leaves34. The two scientists findings were mainly based on the study about_.A. the shape of hominids teethB. the grasses of 3 million years agoC. the make-up of the tooth enamelD. the teeth marks of early fruit eaters35. What is it that Prof. Ungar finds doubtful?A. Hominids probably had different diets.B. Hominids possibly ate grass-eating animals.C. Hominids were basically fruit and grass eaters.D. Hominids had lower level of carbon-13 in the teeth.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。Health Mistakes to Avoid Making When Traveling Everyone is talking about amazing travel experiences.
