Many hotels do not have a 13th floor. The floors go from 12 to 14, and there is no number13. Some people will never sit at a table with 12 other people. They will tell someone to go or ask another person to sit with them.No one really knows why people do not like the number 13. Perhaps one reason is that when people began to count, they used ten fingers and two hands. This made 12. They could not count more.Some Christians (基督徒) say that 13 is not lucky because there were 13 people at a meal the day before Jesus (耶稣) was killed (被杀). In a story about the old Greek (希腊的) gods, 12 gods were asked to a meal but one more came. This made 13. It is why the god Balder, who was at the meal, was killed.（1）Some people will never sit at a table with twelve other people, or _.A . they will never come for dinner togetherB . they will ask one of them to leaveC . all of them will leaveD . they will wait for two other people to come（2）The story is about _.A . the death of JesusB . the person who killed BalderC . why 13 is not a lucky numberD . the way people count with their fingers5. （6分） A famous study was done in a school by a professor from a university. At the start of the school year, the teachers were given the names of five children. They were told that these five were the most excellent students in the class. But the fact was that these students were only average, and they were not the best students at all. Well, guess what? At the end of the year, all the five average students scored among the highest in the class.What made these average students change so much to become top students? The only difference was the change in their teachers attitude. Because the teachers believed that these five kids were the top students, they expected more from them. And so these five average students began to believe and expect more from themselves. So they worked harder to do as well as they could.Do you know why? If you expect the best from people, theyll usually want to give you their best. A great leader said, “Treat a person just how he appears to be on the outside, and youll make him even worse. But treat a person like hes already a success, and youll help make him the best he can be.”Like the true story of 7-year-old Johnny, his teacher got so angry with him that one day she said,“Johnny, youre the naughtiest boy in this class. Im sure youll never change.” The next year Johnny had a new teacher. And on the first day of class, she met with Johnny after school and said,“Johnny, Ive heard a lot about you! But do you know that I dont believe a word of it.” And every day after that, this new teacher treated Johnny as if he was one of the smartest students even when Johnny did naughty things. Later on, Johnny became a school leader. Because thats the power of our belief and attitude toward children.（1）The professor started his research by _.A . teaching the five children himselfB . asking the five children to find a new teacherC . telling the five students to work harder than ever beforeD . telling the teacher the five students were the best in the class（2）The five average students became top students mainly because of _.A . the professors studyB . the teachershard workC . the change in the teachersD . the change in the teachers attitude（3）What does the passage mainly tell us?A .

If you want to get more，you should have new teachers.三、 词汇运用 (共2题；共15分)6. （5分）用方框中所给单词的适当形式填空，每词仅用一次（每空一词） Diary through badly become however（1）_, Jims home is in the country, which is far away from his school. （2）You can only be successful_hard work. （3）He felt very sad because in the whole class he did_in the exam. （4）You can put down the colorful things in your life in_. （5）Ten years later, she_one of the richest traders in the world. 7. （10分）根据短文内容及所给首字母提示，写出所缺单词，使短文完整、通顺。Can you think of ways to make the world greener?
