speaker. he was famous for his sense of humour(幽默感). many people liked to listen to him, because he liked to tell some interesting stories to make people laugh all the time. one day mark twain was going to a small town because of his writing. before he was going to leave, one of his friends said to him that there were always a lot of mosquitoes (蚊子) in the town and told him that hed better not go there. mark twain waved his hand and said, “it doesnt matter. the mosquitoes are no relatives of mine. i dont think they will come to visit me.” after he arrived at the town, mark twain stayed in a small hotel near the station. he went into his room, but when he was just about to have a rest, quite a few mosquitoes flew about him. the waiters felt very sorry about that. “im very sorry, mr. mark twain. there are too many mosquitoes in our town.” one of them said to him. mark twain, however, made a joke（开玩笑）, saying to the waiter, “the mosquitoes are very clever. they know my room number. they didnt come into the wrong room.” what he said made all the people present laugh heartily.but that night mark twain slept well. do you know why? that was because all the waiters in the hotel were

famous nicknames (绰号). some people called him bagamo. they said his mouth looked like a large bag. musicians often called him pops, as a sign of respect for his influence on the world of music. born in 1901 in new orleans, he grew up poor, but lived among great musicians. jazz(爵士乐) was invented in the city a few years before his birth. armstrong often said, “jazz and i grew up together.”armstrong showed a great talent for music when he was taught to play the cornet (短号) at a boys home. in his late teens, armstrong began to live the life of a musician. he played in paradise, clubs, and on the steamboats that traveled on the mississippi river. at that time, new orleans was famous for the new music of jazz and was home to many great musicians. armstrong learned from the older musicians and soon became respected as their equal. in 1922 he went to chicago. there, the tale（传奇） of louis armstrong began. from then until the end of his life, armstrong was loved wherever he went. armstrong won his fame(名声) when it came to playing american popular songs. his cornet playing had deep humanity and warmth that caused many listeners to say, “listening to pops just makes you feel good all over.” he was the father of the jazz style and also one of the best-known and most admired（钦佩的） people in the world. his death, on july 6, 1971, was headline news around the world.25armstrong was called pops because he .a. looked like a musician b. was an influential（有影响力的） musicianc. showed an interest in music d. traveled to play modern music26paragraph 3 is mainly about _a.his life b.his family c.his music talent(才能) d. his friend27from the passage, we can learn that .a. armstrongs tale began in new orleans b. armstrong was born before jazz was inventedc. armstrongs music was popular with his listenersd. armstrong learned popular music at a boys home28what is the best title for the text?a. the invention of the jazz music. b. the spread of popular music. c. the making of a musician. d. the father of the jazz style. c spending time with your kids is the best way to give them you attention. no matter whether you stay at home or work outside the home, you can still give quality time to your kids. quality time doesnt mean the whole family sitting for four hours watching tv. it means turning the tv off and playing games together, reading books, going for walks-anything! giving kids your attention means listening to them when they talk. i dont mean half-way listening and saying “uh huh” like we do to our spouses (配偶) when theyre talking about their day at work. i mean sitting down, looking children in the eye, and listening. ask questions. be interested. it shows that youre paying attention, even if your question is just, “so you say you painted the cat blue?” raising kids is not the time to be selfish（自私的） with your time. you can be selfish later on when theyre grown and having kids of their own. if you feel guilty(内疚的) about not being able to spend enough time with your kids, resist trying to buy their attention. you dont have to make every weekend a disneyland day. and you dont have to continually buy them gifts as a means of letting them know you love them. the answer is “time”. time is what they want most from you. your kids, no matter what age, are on some type of schedule. they get up, eat breakfast, eat lunch, eat dinner, etc. what do they do the rest of the time? fill up some of the empty spots in their schedules with activities. have them help you do something around the house or make them take part in a project with you. this is how day care workers are able to keep so many kids under control-they fill up the day with activities.29according to the author, spending quality time with kids means .a. watching tv with themb. staying with them as long as possiblec. doing meaningful things together with themd. giving up jobs to stay with them30the author thinks it is important for parents to .a. listen to their kids carefully b. choose the best gifts for their kidsc. help their kids develop some interests d. teach their kids the importance of study31the author mentions day care workers to show the importance of letting kids .a. eat well b. help parents c. do housework d. do activities32the text is written for .a. kids b. parents c. school teachers d. education officers d high school students have always spread(传播) gossip (传言) in the halls, on the walls and on the phone. now its on the internet, too. on various message boards, kids write about whom they hate, whom they think have fallen in love with each other and record other often hurtful things that may or may not be true. sixteen-year-old jessica remembers once when some kids at her school wrote cruel things about her on the web. “they were just making fun of me,” she says. they said shes really ugly, shes this, shes that, blah-blah-blah.jessicas 11-year-old sister, emma, admits shes used the web to write bad things about another girl, though she regrets（后悔） it now. “after a while, you may feel like, how could i have been so mean? or, why did i do that?” she says. experts say gossip on the internet can be more harmful than the old fashioned kind. it lasts longer and is taken more seriously. and, unlike ugly words on the bathroom wall, theres no way to get rid of it.if your kids are victims(受害者) of online gossip, dr. commanday suggests putting the gossip in to perspective (正确看待). “point out to them how whats being said on the screen differs from what everyone knows about you as a person,” dr. commanday says. you can also try what worked from emma: keep your kids off the offensive (冒犯的) website! “when she was using it all the time, her name was there all the time. people were writing things about her,” explains patti thrift, emmas mother, “since she has no longer had access to that, shes no longer a topic of conversation.”33from the examples of jessicas sister, we can learn that _.a. ugly girls like to spread gossip onlineb. ugly girls easily become victims of online gossipc. gossip-makers（制造传言者） can regret what they dod. online gossip is mainly some jokes on others34according to the passage, why is online gossip more hurtful?a. it is written words. b. it can last longer c. it is much uglier. d. it is easier to believe.35the purpose of the passage is to _.a. give some tips on how to prevent hurt of gossip on the internetb. list the difference between the old fashioned gossip and gossip on the internetc. advise students to keep away from the internetd. introduce different kinds of hurt students might meet with三、七选五（题型注释）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。child development people live much longer than most other animals, so human childhood also lasts a long time. unlike baby animals, human children need many years to learn how to live on their own as adults. as childrens bodies grow, their minds grow too. _36_ there are several stages of child development. infancy (婴儿期) is the most helpless stage. over their first year infants gradually learn to roll over, sit up, crawl (爬), and take their first steps with someone helping them. as they grow out of infancy, babies begin to make sounds similar to words. the toddler stage (学步期) begins when a baby starts to walk, usually at about the age of 1. most children also start saying words at about this time. as toddlers grow they become stronger and have more control of their bodies. their thinking skills also improve. _37_they like to copy what other people say and do. between the ages of 3 and 5, children are in the preschool stage. children learn many important skills during this stage. they learn to share and to take turns. _38_playing with others helps them learn how to get along with all kinds of people. starting school marks a new stage. childrens minds develop quickly as they learn reading and writing. they also learn more about cooperating with others.between 9 and 12 years old, children are preteens. _39_they become better at controlling their behavior. preteens also understand how to be helpful to others._40_as preteens become teenagers, they move one step closer to becoming adults and

more independent.e. the end of the preteen years marks the end of childhood.f. they slowly start putting words together to make sentences.g. preteens also become more aware of the world beyond their
