She survived but the fever left its mark she could no longer see or hear. Because she could not hear she also found it very difficult to speak. Luckily Helen was not someone who gave up easily and soon she began to explore the world by using her other senses. How did this child, blinded and deafened at 19 months old, grow into a world-famous author and educator still encourages many people.读写任务：No Pains, No GainsThe passage mainly tells us with her perseverance and hard work, Tanni, a great British disabled athlete, achieved a great success. As we all know, the only way to achieve success is to work hard. Just as a saying goes, “no pains, no gains”. If you want to accomplish something, you must take great pains, otherwise you will gain nothing. From this example we learn that success can be achieved only by persistent efforts. If one wants to achieve success, only hard work and his perspiration can get him to glory.Numerous success stories can support this irrefutable truth. Without hundreds of failures and unremitting efforts, Edison would not have invented the light bulb, and the Wright brothers would not have invented the plane. Without pains-taking efforts and hard training, Chinas famous athletes could not have brought home their world championships. For example, hurdles superhero Liu Xiang could not have made such a great breakthrough in track race without tortuous training. The same is true for Ding Junhui, the world championship winner, who is said to lock himself in a room for more than ten hours practicing snooker every day.Clever men know that the more effort they make, the bigger chance they will have to be successful. So, when others achieve their aspirations and you still gain nothing, dont complain about the unfair fate and dont give up, either. Remember: no pains, no gains.选修七Unit 2完形填空：1-5 BCADA 6-10 CCDBB 11-15 BCADC语法填空：16. were announced 17.

As we know, 40% of students investigated are in favor of the idea due to the fact that robots, which represent the great advance of technology, can help people do the housework to ease their burden. Besides, it is said that robots are intelligent enough to be able to look after family members for people. On the contrary, there are 60% of students who disagree with it because it costs too much to use and maintain the robots, which is unaffordable for most families. In addition, apart from acting slowly, robots are not capable to have effective communication with human beings, which is disappointing. 读写任务： Make Efforts to Reduce SmokingWhat the author conveys to us is that Guangzhou Mayor, who made great contributions to reducing smoking as well as making improvement of the environment of the city, offered his help by donating a large sum of money to fight against smoking around the city, which was significant. As far as I am concerned, Im in favor of what the mayor did. For one thing, it is his efforts that make it possible for the people in Guangzhou to live a healthier and longer life. For another, what makes me admire him is that he devotes much time and energy to stopping people from smoking, which is meaningful. It is universally acknowledged that smoking has many negative effects on peoples life. To begin with, it does harm to publics health because a large number of people die from various diseases which are related to smoking. Whats more, it is a waste of money due to the fact that cigarettes are usually expensive. Apart from that, smoking has bad impact on peoples physical appearance, resulting in yellow skin and teeth, which is ugly. As a middle school student, I firmly suggest that we should keep away from smoking since it does us no good but harm. In addition, it is necessary for us to persuade people who have already formed the habit of smoking to quit it, which is helpful for us to lead a better life. 选修七Unit 3完形填空：1-5 CBBAB 6-10 CDBDC 11-15 CAADC语法填空：16. known 17. annually 18.

Sea lions feed on squid, cuttlefish, jellyfish and so on, and sometimes they eat some little stones, which help them digest food. Sea lions are social animals, and they often gather together in groups of 10 to 15, enjoying the sunshine on sandy beaches and rocks, or floating on the sea. The sea lions are often a popular attraction at the zoo and aquarium, where people can watch them performing shows such as throwing and catching balls with their noses, standing on their back flippers. Sea lions are animals under second-class protection in China, so we should try our best to protect them.读写任务：Protect the Ocean Environment Most ocean pollution begins on land, mainly coming from nonpoint source pollution, which can pollute the river and ocean water. And it is very expensive to get rid of the pollution. After reading the passage, I come to realize that most ocean pollution results from human activities: domestic waste, industrial waste and agricultural waste. I feel so sorry for it because destroying the ocean environment means destroying ourselves.As is well-known to everyone, oceans play an important part in human life because oceans are our treasure houses full of various resources, such as fishes, plants, minerals and so on.In order to protect our oceans from being polluted, we should take effective measures to fight against water pollution. First, we should get people to be aware of the importance of ocean environmental protection. Second, laws must be strictly carried out to punish those who damage the ocean environment. Last but not least, everyone of us should start from ourselves to protect our oceans.选修七Unit 4完形填空：1-5 BDACA 6-10 DBCDA 11-15 BBDAC语法填空：16. that 17. a 18. permission 19. be taken 20. quietly21. raising 2. whatever 23.that/which/不填 24. than 25.

He paid a visit to China for three months at the age of 22, which has changed his whole life since then. He has been teaching the children whose families are too poor to afford the school fees in a remote mountainous village in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region without any payment since 1999. He thinks that most of Chinese parents pay more attention to their childrens results of exams, ignoring their nature, interests and quality cultivation. He advocates that parents should let their children choose their own way of life.读写任务：The Project Hope The Project Hope plays a vital role in helping the poor children to get educated. The author as well as the students in his class raised money for Wei Bo and encouraged him to continue his education.This project, an urgent measure taken by the government, is of great importance to our country, which calls on all the people to donate money to these poor children or do what they can to help the children who cannot afford the school fees. In the first place, the project will provide more educational resources or financial aid for them. Besides, it makes contributions to their future work and success which will lead to the development of the poor areas and benefit the modernization of our country a lot. In addition, it can help more children get educated and fulfill their dream of going to school.This reminds me that Cong Fei, a popular singer who died of stomach cancer, devoted himself to charity work throughout his whole life. He spent all his time helping children in need without any reservations. He was selected as a person who moved the whole nation in a special national program organized by China Central Television. Though Cong has passed away, his spirit and his selfless devotion to other people, especially to children, will live forever. From my point of view, this project is necessary to our country at present. And it will have a great effect on the future achievements of our country. I suggest that more work be done so that every child in the poor area can receive elementary education. 选修七Unit 5完形填空：1-5 CDBAD 6-10 DDACB 11-15 ABCDA语法填空：16. while 17. consideration 18. which 19.

Having me as your guide as well as a travel-mate, you will better enjoy the local customs and the great scenery along the trip.读写任务：Study Hard and Enjoy YourselvesThe author highlights the effect of work on peoples health, because it can rid one of loneliness, and make one feel fruitful and proud of himself, which always contributes to a good body.In common with the author, I agree that the harder you work, the happier you will be, as hard work can keep a person busy, and gives one a sense of achievement, hence he will be self-confident and feel happy.Around me, some of my classmates work very hard, hoping to fulfill their dream. However, they dont seem unhappy. Oppositely, they try to find fun even under the pressure of the coming NMET. For example, they may share the joy with others when working out a problem. Sometimes they may play a trick on partners or friends using the newly-learned idioms, thus refresh themselves quickly.As for me, I think only when we truly experience what fun it is, can we spare no effort to study hard and meanwhile enjoy ourselves.选修八Unit 1完形填空：1-5 CADBA 6-10 CDDBD 11-15 CBABD语法填空：16. apology 17. taken 18. unnecessary 19. was asked 20. a 21. who/that 22. for 23. required 24. and 25. biggest阅读理解：26-30 BBCDC 31-35 CDBBA 36-40 ACADB 41-45 DCACA信息匹配：46-50 CDABE基础写作：Dear Li Hua,How glad to hear that you are going to have a visit to America.

Yours faithfully, Alex读写任务： Stick to what you promiseAs described in the passage, Mr Zeng firmly kept his wifes promise to his child, from which we learn that Mr. Zeng is worth depending on and good at educating children.I cant agree more with Mr. Zengs education method. Had I been his child, I would have formed a deep impression on it and gradually cultivated this quality. Just as an old saying goes, “Action speaks louder than words.” If our parents themselves can do what they promise, we are likely to follow them.The passage so well retained me the remembrance of an experience. Once, I made a promise to myself that I wouldnt play basketball that week. Nevertheless, it is so fascinating that I even tried to persuaded myself to enjoy it. In time, I resisted the temptation and kept my promise. Since then, I have realized that it is keeping our promise that makes us feel a sense of fulfillment and wins respect from others. So, please stick to your promise.选修八Unit 2完形填空：1-5 DBCCA 6-10 BBCAD 11-15 ABCAD语法填空：16. be cloned 17.for 18. involved 19. how 20. before21. used 22. that 23.it 24.to collect 25. or阅读理解：26-30 BDACD 31-35 CABCC 36-40 ACADB 41-45 ACDCB信息匹配：46-50 CFBAE基础写作：Everything has its advantages and disadvantages, and the process of human cloning is no exception at all. Today there are many scientists who want to clone humans or human organs because they believe that they can save peoples lives that are waiting for an organ on a waiting list. It would be a lot quicker and their bodies wouldnt reject the new organ because it would be made out of their own DNA. However, other scientists worry it might lead to some unpredictable problems in the near future. Therefore, we have to take the human cloning seriously .读写任务：The passage explained what cloning is and the quick development of this kind of technology brings human beings a lot of advantages as well as some disadvantages, especially in human cloning.To a certain degree, cloning is beneficial to mankind. Some diseases will possibly be cured in the future in the hope of further applying of cloning. Many people consider this technology a promising one as to bring all human beings to a new era. But I agree with the author that we should be serious about human cloning, even not try it.But lets think, what is the practical value in human cloning? You may tell me that it can bring hope for those couples unable to have children. But imagine, if you have a child owning the same appearance as yours or your husbands, will you accept it without any discomfort? Or if this kind of human reproduction is allowed, terrorists may get hold of it and reproduce lots of “American Presidents”. Besides these terrible aspects, the cloning of whole being may destroy the diversity of people of the globe. I think cloning technology should be applied only in the field of scientific research. As for human society, cloning would be the Pandoras box that we shall never open it. Humans are distinguished and unique, each individual is irreplaceable. We should treat cloning technology rationally in order to benefit human society rather than destroy its harmony and orderliness.选修八Unit 3完形填空：1-5 DBCBB 6-10 ABDDB 11-15 CBDCD语法填空：16. working 17. but 18. with 19. adventurer 20. a21. they 22. whose 23.to take 24. deepest 25. be achieved阅读理解：26-30 BBDCD 31-35 DCCBA 36-40 BBBDD 41-45 BDBBD信息匹配：46-50 CEDAB基础写作：Dear Sir / Madam, My name is Li Hua and I would like to apply for the work as a volunteer for the 2nd Summer Youth Olympic Games, Nanjing 2014.I am a student in Senior Three and will take the college entrance examination in June.
