teaching creative writing at a high school in New YorkOne day, one of my students, David, gave me a note from his motherIt explained his absence from class the day beforeI had seen David himself writing the note at his deskMost parental-excuse notes I received were forged by my studentsIf I were to deal with them, Id be busy 24 hours a day.The forged excused notes made a large pile, with writing that ranged from imaginative to crazyThe writers of those notes didnt realize that honest excuse notes were usually dull, “Peter was late because the alarm clock didnt go off.”Isnt it remarkable, I thought, how the students complained and said it was hard putting 200 words together on any subject? But when they produced excuse notes they were brilliant.So one day I typed out a dozen excuse notes and gave them to my classesI said, “They were supposed to be written by parents, but actually they are notTrue, David?” the students looked at me nervously“Now, this will be the first class to study the art of the excuse notethe first class, ever, to practice writing themYoure so lucky to have a teacher like me who has taken your best writing and turned it into a subject worthy of study.”Everyone smiled as I went on, “You used your imaginationsSo try more nowToday Id like you to write An Excuse Note from Adam to God or An Excuse Note from Eve to God.” Heads went downPens raced across paperFor the first time ever I saw students so careful in their writing what they had to be reminded to go to lunch.The next day everyone had excuse notesHeated discussions followedThe headmaster entered the classroom and walked up and down, looking at papers, and then said, “Id like you to see me in my office.”When I stepped into his office, he came to shake my hand and said, “I just want to tell you that your lesson, whatever the hell you were doing, was greatThose kids were writing on the college levelThank you.”55What did the author do with the students found dishonest?AHe reported them to the headmasterBHe scolded them for their dishonesty.CHe helped improve their writing skillsDHe had them take notes before lunch.56The underlined word “forged” in the second paragraph means .AformerBcopiedChonestDfalse 57The author had the students practice writing excuse notes so that the students could .Arealize the importance of honestyBknow how to write excuse notes skillfullyClearn how to be creative in writingDenjoy the pleasure of creative writing58What did the headmaster think of the authors way of teaching?AEffectiveBMisleadingCReasonableDDifficultCThe slogan “A dog is for life, not just for Christmas” has been going strong for 27 years nowDogs and cats have been popular Christmas gifts in the UK and Europe for many yearsBut some people still havent quite got the message.The slogan still holds goodSome 105,000 dogs were rounded up by local government last year because they had been thrown away, and many of them shortly after the festival season.The main reason given by owners for handing their dogs over to the Dogs Trust is that the dogs need more attention than they can give; behavioral problems and moving home are also reasons given.But Eleanor Silk, the Trusts communications director, says, “Its often four or five months after Christmas, in early summer, when owners find that the dog has got too big and too active, or it hasnt been trained properly and has caused damage around the home.”In any case, some organizations that help pets are quick to point out that if you are serious about getting a puppy as a pet, Christmas is not the time to do itPuppies need to get used to their new surroundings, to be introduced to a routine, and to be looked after like small childrenIts hard to meet any of these needs at ChristmasWhats more, pulling a puppy out of a Christmas stocking in itself sends the wrong message to childrenIt encourages children to think of the puppy as a toy, rather than a responsibility.Appreciating what youre taking on with a dog can be a sobering (发人深省的) realization“For life” means thinking about the effect theyll have on your lifeIt also infers you will need to care for the dog for its whole life.59The underlined words “rounded up” in Paragraph 2 mean .Agiven out as giftsBthrown awayCgathered into one placeDraise to make money60The fifth paragraph mainly tells us .Ahow to take best care of Christmas petsBthe reasons why Christmas is not the time to get a petCthe right time to have puppy as a pet Dthe worries about Christmas pets from organizations that help pets.61Why is the author against the idea of putting a dog in the Christmas stocking as a Christmas gift?ABecause children will not take dogs seriouslyBBecause these dogs can still cause damage.CBecause children dont like to have dogs as Christmas gifts.DBecause a Christmas stocking is not big enough to put a dogs in.62What would be the best title for the passage?ADogs and Catsthe Most Popular Christmas gifts.BA Pet Is for Life, Not Just for Christmas.CHow to Take Care of Your Pets over Christmas.DLets Help Those Abandoned Pets.D Cameras all around, hundreds of screaming fans; no, the descried scene is not that of a football championshipIt is cheerleading (啦啦队) competitionAs a mix of various other sports, cheerleading is a new sport on an international rise in popularity.Cheerleading requires an especially high level of physical exertion(努力) with an equally high risk of injuryIn order to even make a team, cheerleaders must participate in a strict tryout （选拔）process which often takes more than a week.Cheerleaders do not give up their time to practice for nothing; most teams participate in many competitions throughout their yearlong seasonBoth high school and all-star cheerleading teams are given the chance to competeEvery year high school teams can participate in one of numerous national championships while all-star teams compete against teams from all around the globe at The Cheerleading WorldsFor “Worlds”, teams come from everywhere including China, Chile, Britain, Canada Australia, and FranceAttending the Worlds or Nationals is a privilege (特权), and teams must qualify at smaller local and regional competitions first.Critics argue against cheerleading as a sport because of its scoring system, which they view as subjective and unfairA panel（组）of judges evaluates the competing teams, assigns points according to difficulty and performance, and ranks team by total pointsTrained and experienced coaches and directors serve as judgesAll judges receive same score sheets with specific guidelines（准则）, and all scores are averaged out to ensure fairness.Cheerleading has risen in international popularity recently and its respect as a sport should increase as wellCheerleading is exceptionally physically demanding as well as an internationally competitive sport that follows the same principles as many other sportsAlthough some argue the scoring system for cheerleading is not accurate, other sports follow the same scoring patternBefore you determine whether cheerleading is a sport or not, find a local cheerleading competitionThe hard work and dedication of hundreds of men and women will show the moment they step onto the floor.63The underlined part indicates that as a sport, .Acheerleading attracts less fans than footballBcheerleading fans usually scream loudlyCcheerleading draws great attention from mediaDcheerleading can be as appealing and exciting as football64Some people dont accept cheerleading as a sport mainly because .Ait is not competitive enough Bit is hard to be measured with accurate scoresCits performance is too subjectiveDcoaches and directors serve as judges65It can be learned from the text that .Acheerleading is criticized for being too dangerousBboth high school teams and all-star teams are allowed to take part in The Worlds and NationsCit takes devotion and hard work to make a good cheerleading teamDcheerleading follows different principles from many other sports66As a sport, cheerleading has various characteristics, including .ademanding bsubjective crisky dcompetitive estrictAabdeBabceCacdeDbcdeEAccording to a survey of 8, 000 workers across the United States, Canada, India, and Europe, in the percentage of employees who hate their jobs, America is number one!M and market research company GFK conducted the study, which revealed that only 53% of Americans actively enjoy their jobs, and 15% actively dislike themCanadians, meanwhile, took top prize for having the cheeriest workforce: 64% of Canadians like their jobs, while only 7% hate what they doOther nations fell somewhere in between.“There have been lots of studies done about how Europeans have more vacation days, or have better work-life balanceThe other side of it is that theres a lot of information about Americans working too many hours,” Joanie Ruge, senior vice president at the job search site Monster Worldwide, Incsaid“More companies are trying to get more work done with fewer people.”This doesnt exactly come as a surprise, given that the United States has some of the most backward labor practices in the worldIts one of the few countries that dont require pai
