The books were a great success even though some critics（批评家）did not like them.Thomas Jefferson did not like what Comte de Buffon had said about the natural wonders（奇观）of the New World. It seemed to Jefferson that Comte de Buffon had spoken of natural wonders in America as if（好像）they were unimportant.This troubled Thomas Jefferson. He was also a naturalist, as well as a farmer, an inventor, a historian, a writer and a politician（政治家）. He had seen the natural wonders of Europe. To him, they were no more important than those of the New World.In 1788, Thomas Jefferson wrote about his home state, Virginia. While writing, he thought of its natural beauty and then of the words of Comte de Buffon. At that moment, Jefferson created a new wordbelittle. He said, “Comte de Buffon believes that nature belittles her productions on this side of the Atlantic（大西洋）.”Noah Webster, the American word expert, liked this word. He put it in the English language dictionary in 1806, “Belittleto make small, unimportant.”Americans had already accepted Jeffersons word and started to use it. In 1797, the Independent Chronicle（独立纪事报）used the word to describe a politician the paper supported. “It is an honorable man,” the paper wrote, “so let the opposition try to belittle him as much as they please.”In 1872, a famous American word expert decided that the time had come to kill this word. He said, “Belittle shouldnt become English. And more critical writers of America, like those of Britain, feel no need of it.”This expert failed to kill the word. Today, belittle is used where the English language is spoken.（1）Thomas Jefferson was NOT a _. A . naturalistB . historianC . politicianD . musician（2）We can infer（推断）that Jefferson created the word “belittle” out of his _. A . angerB . excitementC . kindnessD . responsibility（3）What can we know about the word “belittle” from the passage? A . It has already disappeared from the English language.B . It had been used before it was put in the English language dictionary.C . It is used to describe natural wonders now.D . An American politician decided to kill this word in 1872.（4）Whats the passage mainly about? A . How the word “belittle” came into being.B . The argument about natural wonders.C . Every word has a long history behind.D . Noah Webster supported Jeffersons idea.13. （10分）阅读理解Height is just one of the thousands of features your genes decide. In fact, because you have two parents, your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent. If both your parents are tall, then most probably you will be tall, too, but if you have questions about how tall youre going to be, ask your doctor if he or she can help you find it out.But genes dont decide everything. For example, eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to your full potential(潜力). Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height.No doubt youre wondering how fast you should grow. It depends. Theres no perfect or right answer. Generally speaking, kids grow about 2 inches (6 centimeters) a year between age 3 and the time when they start puberty (when your body starts changing and becoming more grown up).Your doctor will know how your growth has been going over the years. Two centimeters here and 2 inches there are not nearly as important as the height youre at now, how youve been growing up to this point, and what other changes your body may be going through.Dont be scared if you seem to have grown a lot in a very short time. Everyone has a growth spurt（高峰）during_The age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for boys. But it can be earlier or later between 7 and 13 for girls and 9 and 15 for boys.Youll usually begin to notice that youre growing faster about a year or so after your body starts to show the first changes of puberty.（1）The Chinese for the word “puberty” is . A . 童年时期B . 婴幼儿时期C . 习惯养成期D . 生长发育期（2）If you want to know how fast and how tall you should grow, _. A . you should have enough exerciseB . you can ask doctors for helpC . you should save the environmentD . You can record your growth during puberty（3）This passage is mainly about . A . how the genes work in your bodyB . when is the time you grow fastC . why you look like your parentsD . how you grow to a certain height（4）After reading this passage, we can explain . A . how good it is to be a doctorB . how much sleep time we needC . why genes cant decide everythingD . what healthy diet is（5）Which is NOT mentioned in the passage? A . Your height most probably depends on how high your parents are.B . Girls age for starting puberty is usually earlier than that for boys.C . The time showing the first changes of puberty is never noticed.D . You may be scared sometimes when you grow too fast.14. （10分）阅读下列短文，从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Have you heard about Face Recognition (刷脸) technology?
