the son of a horse trainer who would go from stable to stable, race track to race track, farm to farm and ranch to ranch, training horses. as a result, the boys high school career was continually interrupted. when he was a senior, he was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.” that night he wrote a seven-page paper describing his goal of someday owning a horse ranchhe wrote about his dream in great detail and he even drew a diagram of a 200-acre ranch, showing the location of all the buildings, the stables and the track. then he drew a detailed floor plan for a 4,000-square-foot house that would sit on a 200-acre dream ranch” he put a great deal of his heart into the project and the next day he handed it in to his teacher. two days later he

try cigarettes. making decisions on your own is hard enough, but when other people get involved and try to pressure you one way or another it can be even harder. people who are your age, like your classmates, are called peers. when they try to influence how you act, to get you to do something, its called peer pressure.peers can have a positive influence on each other. maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in the solar system. maybe you got others excited about your new favorite book, and now everyones reading it. these are examples of how peers positively influence each other.sometimes peers influence each other in negative ways. for example, a few kids in school might try to get you to cut class with them; your soccer friend might try to convince you to be mean to another player and never pass him the ball.it is tough to be the only one who says “no” to peer pressure, but you can do it. paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do.youve probably had a parent or teacher advising you to “choose your friends wisely.” peer pressure is a big reason why they say this. if you choose friends who dont cut class, smoke cigarettes, or lie to their parents, then you probably wont do these things either, even if other kids do. if you continue to face peer pressure and youre finding it difficult to handle, talk to someone you trust. dont feel guilty if youve made a mistake or two.24. for whom is the passage most probably written?a. parents. b. teachers.c. students. d. doctors.25. in the last three paragraphs, the author mainly_.a. explains why friendship is so important b. shows how to make more good friends c. discusses how peers influence us d. gives advice on how to deal with peer pressure26. which of following may help handle peer pressure?a. spending more time with classmates. b. taking up more relaxing hobbies.c. choosing friends with no bad habits. d. helping others who are in trouble.27. what is the topic of the passage?a. friendship. b. making decisionsc. self-confidence d. peer pressure【答案】24.c25.d26.c27.d25.d考查段落大意题。这三段都是告诉年轻人如何处理peer pressure，可以抵制，也可以向老师求助等建议，故选d项。26.c考查推理题。根据倒数第二段最后两行if you choose friends who dont cut class, smoke cigarettes, or lie to their parents, then you probably wont do these things either, even if other kids do说明我们可以选择一些有良好习惯的人做朋友，这样就会受到他们的影响，也会有良好的习惯，故选c项。27.d 考查主旨大意。本文讲述是如何处理青少年压力的建议，故选d项。考点 ：教育类阅读 。cfrom the first use of the rocket to carry satellites into space to the setting up of space stations, human beings have been putting great effort into space research. and so far, we have achieved many successes. but there are still numerous tasks in front of us and we should not stop trying to progress.the international space station (iss) is an important step we should take in space exploration. it is not only helpful but also essential. it provides a proper space environment for many experiments that we have wanted to do for a long time. it is also a base for the observations of the earth and the universe. it could also be an important base for later travel to the moon and mars. in a word, if we want to explore space more, the first thing we should do is to set up a space station.as the space station costs a lot of money, it is hard for one country alone to establish one. the usa seems to be the only country that has the ability to build a space station alone，and it has tried to do so, but not very successful. so it aggregated many other countries to work on it together. though it is still extremely expensive, it is much cheaper than doing it alone. it is really a job that needs everyones effort and will benefit everyone.led by the u.s. and russia, the iss is a joint project between six space agencies involving 16 countries. called the greatest achievement in human cooperation, the iss has come to the end of a ten-years hard work in construction. china has applied for participation in (taking part in) the project many times. unfortunately all the applications were rejected, which drove china onto the path of independent development. as the long march -f/t1 carrier rocket blasted off (leave the ground) and successfully carried the tiangong-1 into space on september 29, 2011, china takes a big step toward its space station era.some west media suggested that the successful launch of tiangong-1 would disturb the balance of global space power, raising concerns (关注) about “china threat”. chinas space project is not designed for military (军事的) purpose but for developing space technology to explore space resources and make use of them for mankinds well-being.28. from paragraph 2 we learn that _. a. the necessity of building the international space station is not realized nowb. many experiments have been done in the international space stationc. the international space station is necessary for people to explore space mored. people have traveled to mars from the international space station29. which of the following is not a reason for countries cooperation in building the international space station?a. that it is too far away from the earth.b. that it requires a lot of money.c. that it needs everyones effort. d. that it will benefit every participating country.30. the underlined word “aggregated” in paragraph 3 can be replaced by “_”a. united b. scoldedc. allowed d. forbade31. china wants to build its space station in order to _.a. show that china can build space station aloneb. raise international concerns about “china threat” c. make use of space peacefully for mankinds well-beingd. break the balance of global space power【答案】28.c29.a30.a31.c29.a考查细节题。根据文章第三段as the space station costs a lot of money, it is hard for one country alone to establish one. the usa seems to be the only country that has the ability to build a space station alone，and it has tried to do so, but not very successful可知bcd都是原因，只有a不是，故选a项。30.a考查猜测词义题。根据上文可知单独靠一个国家，建空间站是非常困难的，那么很多国家联合起来，一起建空间站，故选a项。31.c考查细节题。根据文章最后三行chinas space project is not designed for military (军事的) purpose but for developing space technology to explore space resources and make use of them for mankinds well-being.可知中国空间站的目的不是为军事而是探索空间，充分利用人类潜力，故选c 项。考点 ：科普类阅读 。d“in only six days i lost seven pounds of weight.”“two full inches in the first three days!”these are the kinds of statements used in magazine, newspaper, radio and television ads, promising good shapes and new looks to those who buy the medicine or the device. the promoters of products say they can shape the legs, slim the face, smooth wrinkles, or in some other way add to beauty or desirability.often such products are nothing more than money-making things for their promoters. the results they produce are questionable, and some are dangerous to health.to understand how these products can be legally promoted to the public, it is necessary to understand something of the laws covering their regulation. if the product is a drug, fda (food drug administration) can require proof under the food, drug and cosmetic act that it is safe and effective before it is put on the market. but if the product is a device, fda has no authority to require premarketing proof of safety or effectiveness. if a product already on the market is a danger to health, fda can request the producer or distributor to remove it from the market voluntarily, or it can take legal action, including seizure (查封) of the product.one notable case a few years ago involved an electrical device called the relaxacisor, which had been sold for reducing the waistline. the relaxacisor produced electrical shocks to the body through contact pads. fda took legal action against the distributor to stop the sale of the device on the grounds that was dangerous to health and life.obviously, most of the devices on the market have never been the subject of court proceedings (法律诉讼), and new devices appear continually, before buying, it is up to the consumer to judge the safety or effectiveness of such items.32. it can be inferred that ads mentioned in the text are_.a. objective b. costlyc. unbelievable d. illegal33. the relaxacisor is mentioned as_.a. a product which was designed to produce electricity b. a successful advertisement of a beauty productc. an example of a quality beauty productd. a product whose distributor was involved in a legal case34. the author intends to_.a. make consumers aware of the promoters false promiseb. show the weakness of the law on product safetyc. give advice on how to keep young and beautifuld. introduce the organization of fda35. which of the following is true according to the text?a. the court is in charge of removing dangerous products.b. the promoters usually just care about profits.c. new products are more likely to be questionable.d. the production of a device must be approved by fda.【答案】32.c33.d34.a35.b【解析】试题分析: 本文叙述了一些所谓的塑身、健美、美容的商品广告，商家和促销商仅仅是为了挣钱，而实际的结果令人怀疑，有些还有害于健康。事实证明，许多投放在市场上的医疗设备并不受法律的约束，在购买前消费者要自己判断它们的安全和效果。32.c考查推理判断题。objective客观的； costly昂贵的； unreliable 不可信的；
