among those parents and when his son asked if he could have a roller coaster in their backyard，the 50yearold dad made a decision，which his son would never forget.he said，“yes.”the father made his sonsand probably his owndream come true after he was asked to build the roller coaster at their home in san francisco following a trip to a local theme park.after spending around 3,500 on building materials and more than 300 hours，the cool dad finally completed a 55meterlong roller coaster.mr.pemble，an ecommerce professional，said，“we were just back from one of many amusement park trips and lyle asked a simple question，why dont we build our own roller coaster，dad？” he recalled.he couldnt think of a single good reason to say no to his 10yearold son and thus started the building task.the amazing father also wanted to show his children that anything is possible once you put your mind to it.mr.pemble himself is a physics enthusiast and he saw this as an opportunity to teach some physics and science to his kids.“today，our backyard roller coaster is an unending source of excitement，challenge，education and connection，” the dad said.since the word went out，he has had several requests from fans asking him to build them backyard roller coasters，said mr.pemble.mr.pemble loves the roller coaster because it has helped him bring three things he cherishes most together：physics，fun and family.when asked if building more rides in his future to earn his living，the proud dad said，“if im honest，i cant think of a single good reason to say no so that could well happen in the future.“our mission is purely to share our love of physics，family，and fun so one thing has just led to another.its amazing that all of this came from a kid asking one simple question and a dad saying yes.”http：//amazingdadbuildsarollercoasterforhissoninbackyard/note：ecommerce ikms n电子商务have a try：1the father started building the roller coaster for the following reasons except .ahe wanted to show

usadthe car is too expensive to buy，so the parents wont buy it for their children答案b解析细节理解题。9到12年级为高中阶段，排除a；根据最后一段可知，在美国大多数州的法定驾车年龄为16岁，并不是整个国家，故排除c；一些父母允许自己的孩子驾驶自家车，但有些甚至买车当毕业礼物送给孩子，排除d；根据“school activities”部分：各学校每年都会举办一些全校性活动，如返校节、学年舞会等等。返校节在每年秋季举办，通常选在周末。所以b项正确。4we can most probably find this passage in a .amagazine bpostercstorybook

doing more.”我们推断，geeta被授予这一奖项是因为她在医学领域的非凡成就以及她所坚持做的超出一个医生职责之外的事情，所以说“她不仅仅是个医生”这一说法也是对的，故选d。4samera ashraf won the awa for her .aexcellent performance in sportsbdetermination to become a martial

mouse and some are as big as a man.they all live in madagascar.they have long tails and can jump very far.lemurs like eating fruits，tree leaves and insects.the most famous plant is the baobab tree.the baobab is known as “upsidedown tree”this is likely from an older african legend.the story goes that after the creation，each of the animals was given a tree to plant and the stupid hyena planted the baobab upside down！lemurs love eating its fruits.local people love it too.it is like a bottle and they can get water from its trunk.we know insects eat plants.but some plants in madagascar eat

upsidedowncits trunk is full of water just like a water bottledits fruits are eaten by lemurs so its treetop becomes small答案b解析细节理解题。猴面包树，被称为“颠倒树”，因为它树干极粗，树枝却茂密纤细。据传说是土狼把树种颠倒了，让树根留在了上面。猴面包树其实看上去是颠倒的样子。所以选项b正确。3madagascar has the following good reputations except .aa big zoo with all the animals unfound anywhere elsebthe “eighth continent”cisland at the end of the earthdearths oldest island答案a解析细节理解题。通读整篇文章，我们知道马达加斯加有如下美誉：大动物园、第八大洲、世界尽头之岛和地球上最古老的岛屿。但是根据选项a的意思：马达加斯加的动物都是该岛独有的，与第二段最后一句不符。故选项a表达错误。4we can infer from the reading that .athe best time to go to madagascar is in winterbmadagascar is the kingdom of lemurs and baobabs，native only to madagascar cplants in madagascar eat insectsdmadagascar is a wonderland for nature lovers答案d解析推理判断题。通览全文，我们可以判断，本文主要介绍马达加斯加岛美丽的自然风光以及生活于其间的独特动物种群，所以这是一片自然的乐土，当然是大自然爱好者的天堂了。test 5moms 18point iphone rules for son收到妈妈的礼物iphone5！别急，18条使用条约须遵守！13yearold greg hoffman had been begging his parents for an iphone all year.so on christmas morning he was excited to find the object of his desire under the tree，but there was a catch.the phone came with an 18point set of terms and conditions that he had to agree to before the phone could be his.and the agreement did not come from apple or the phone provider；it was from his mother.his mom，janell hoffman，included a contract along with the iphone that listed eighteen conditions or rules that greg has to follow if he wants to keep it.some of the rules limit the time he can use the phone：not after 7：30 pm.，and he cant take it to school.he also has to promise not to send “hurtful” text messages and emails to people; give his passwords to his parents，and always answer the phone when his mom or dad calls.greg also has to use his own money to replace the phone if its broken or lost.janell says the idea behind the contract is to teach her son to have a sense of responsibility and to learn to “coexist with technology，not be ruled by it”she told him not to use this technology to lie，fool，or cheat another human being.most of the terms do not just apply to the iphone，but to life.she also advised him to，“keep your eyes up.see the world happening around you.stare out a window.listen to the birds.take a walk.talk to a stranger.wonder without googling.” “you are growing up in a fast and ever changing world.trust your powerful mind and giant heart above any machine.“i hope that you understand it is my job to raise you into a well rounded，healthy young man that can function in the world and coexist with technology，not be ruled by it.“i love you.i hope you enjoy your awesome new iphone.merry christmas！”http：//us/massachusettsmomsonsign18pointagreementiphone/story？id18094401notes：1terms and

hoffman因赠予儿子一部iphone5手机的同时提出了包含18条规定的使用“合同”而成为媒体热议话题。由于智能手机的流行已经在青少年间引发一些社会问题，这位母亲的做法得到了不少父母的支持，认为她在允许孩子接触最新科学技术产品的同时，也不忘对孩子进行人格教育。janell在对儿子的信中说，“这份合同里面所列的注意事项不仅仅适用于这部iphone手机，也适用于我们的日常生活。现在，你生活在一个快速发展而且充满变革的世界。妈妈相信你有着强大的意志力，不会沉迷于这部iphone手机。”她相信，虽然这个“合同”执行起来对孩子而言并不容易，但他在使用iphone的时候肯定会进行思考，学着去承担责任。have a try：1the underlined word “catch” in the first paragraph means “ ”agreat secret bset of conditionschidden difficulty dpiece of paper答案c解析词义猜测题。根据第一段可知：13岁的greg hoffman这一年都在求他的父母要买iphone。所以，在圣诞节早晨，当他在圣诞树下看到他梦寐以求的iphone时，他很兴奋。不过，事情并非如此简单。“catch”有“困难”之意，通常指“隐藏的困难”，“暗藏的不利因素”。2mom gave her son the 18point contracts with the iphone in order to .akeep in touch with

world答案b解析细节理解题。根据第四段可知：妈妈“18条规定”的想法，是想让孩子知道，要有责任感，能与先进科技“和平共处”。所以选项b正确。3which of the following may not be one of the 18 rules?ado not use this technology to lie，fool another human being.bdo not ever ignore a phone call if the screen reads “mom” or “dad”not ever.ci will always know the password.dtake it to school but turn it off or silence it while having classes.答案d解析细节理解题。根据第三段介绍的有关规定，其中一条就是“不能带去学校”，故d项不在“18条规定”之中。test 6new zealand：gods own country爸爸去哪儿2的最后一站来到了自然风光优美、野生动物繁多的新西兰。大饱眼福的你是不是也想亲自出行，去那里游览一番？欢迎到这块“太平洋上的净土”、“上帝留给自己养老的地方”新西兰！no matter where
