When I was a little boy aged two, my mom agreed to let me take a short ride and that was it! From then on, I drove my parents crazy begging for a horse.When I was four, I had mutism, in which children stop speaking in certain social situations. I went days, weeks, months without a sound at school. At most, I might quietly whisper to a friend. I suffered silently through school until I was ten when a psychologist (心理学家) had an idea. He asked me what I wanted more than anything else in the world. He explained I was going to be given a chance to work for that. And I was permitted to whisper the answer in my mothers ear, “A horse.”I was to get a pony, but I had to live up to my end of the bargain (讲价). I had a list of weekly tasks I had to finish. I had to answer the phone five times per week, something I had never done before. I had to say one word to my teacher at school and the list went on. For a child with mutism, saying one word to someone can be like climbing Mount Qomolangma. I did everything that was asked of me and the day came. His name was Sequoia, whom I fell in love with immediately. When I was in Sequoias presence, I forgot all about my problems and felt strong and secure.I am a fully participating member of society these days. My horse and I made it through a masters degree. I may have made it otherwise, but Im not sure. I feel I owe my life to the horse and I try to give it back to him. He has given me the best gift I could ever imagine, my life.21. What was the situation like when the author was four?A. He didnt say a word at all.B. He learned how to ride a horse.C. He found his classmates unfriendly.D. He had difficulty in communicating.22. What can we infer about the author from Paragraph 3?A. He completed some tasks easily.B. He pushed himself extremely hard.C. He fell in love with Sequoia gradually.D. He found the psychologists idea useless.23. What is the authors purpose of writing the text?A. To share his unfortunate childhood.B. To give tips on how to cure mutism.C. To show his deep gratefulness to his horse.D. To encourage kids struggling against mutism.BSome people learn a second language easily. Other people have trouble learning a new language. How can you help yourself learn a new language, such as English? There are several ways to make learning English a little easier and more interesting.The first step is to feel confident about learning English. If you believe that you can learn, you will learn. Be patient. You do not have to understand everything all at once. It is natural to make mistakes when you learn something new. We can learn from our mistakes.The second step is to practice your English. For example, write a journal every day. You will get used to writing in English, and you will feel comfortable expressing your ideas in English. After several weeks, you will see that your writing is improving. Besides, you must speak English every day. You can practice with your classmates outside class. You will all make mistakes, but gradually you will become comfortable communicating in English.The third step is to keep a record of your language learning. You can write this in your journal. After each class, think about what you did. Did you answer a question correctly? Did you understand something the teacher explained? Perhaps the lesson was difficult, but you tried to understand it. Write these achievements in your journal.You must be positive about learning English and believe that you can do it. It is important to practice every day and make a record of your achievements. You will enjoy learning English, and you will have more confidence in yourself.24. What is important to learn English?A. To read English every day.B. To make a record of your mistakes.C. To buy a dictionary.D. To practice English every day and make a record of your achievements.25.

Some people learn a second language easily while other people do not.C. There are ways to help you learn a second language more easily.D. Do not worry about making mistakes when learning a second language.CDo you still use a power button（开机键）to open your smart phones or computers? You are out of fashion! Now most smart phones ere using facial-recognition system（面部识别系统）, and we already have machines that can know you from your fingers and your voice too. But some companies are still willing to invent other systems to “break”these systems, for example, the eye-recognition system. As is reported, youll just have to look at the computers and machines, and this system will be able to tell you who you are by looking at your eyes, even when you are wearing glasses.Do you wonder if this system will work well? The answer is YES. All you need is just look at your machines. The eye scanner（扫描仪）is put in the cameras of your machines. The eye-recognition system is safer and easier than other systems. This is because everyones eyes are different. Since the system works easily, you wont have to remember a group of code when you want to open your computer or take money out of a bank in the future. Eye-recognition system is better than other kinds of systems because your eyes dont change as you get older, and dont get dirty like hands or fingers. Even twins eyes are not the same. So the eye-recognition system can be up to 94 percent correct, but it depends on how good the technology is. Some systems may only 51% right. In Britain, it was found that 91 percent of the people who had tried it said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition. So scientists think it will become more popular than other systems.The eye-recognition system has already been tested in shops in the USA, Britain, Spain, Italy and Turkey. Soon it will become a popular way among public. In the future, your computer will be opened by looking at your eyes.28. How does the eye-recognition system work?A. You put your fingers on the machine and look at it.B. You say something to the machine and look at itC. You turn on the power button and stand before it.D. You look at the machine and it can recognize who you are.29. The underlined word code in the second paragraph probably means _ in Chinese.A.密码B. 按钮C.符号D.钥匙30. Which sentence is TRUE about the eye-recognition system according to the passage?A. The eye-recognition system doesnt work if you wear glasses.B. You must remember the code as well as looking at the machine.C. If you get older, the eye-recognition system can still remember you.D. The eye-recognition system is so good that it will never go wrong.31. Which of the following is the reason why the system can be up to 94% correct?A. Your eyes never get older with age.B. Your eyes dont get dirty easily like your hands.C. Your machines must be good.D. Everyones eyes are different from others.DOn Tuesday, there will be a tiny salt shaker(小盐瓶) symbol on menus in some restaurants in New York City. It warns certain meals are high in sodium. The first US city is taking the step to fight against heart disease and stroke(中风).Any menu item with more than 2.3 grams of sodium in it must have the emblem of a salt shaker in a black triangle. Many scientists give us the advice: A person shouldnt eat more sodium than the daily limit every day, which equals about one teaspoon of salt.“Its not hard to get 2.3 grams of sodium into your mouth,” said Dr Howard Weintraub from New York University Langone Center(预防中心). A study found New Yorkers eat more than 3,200 mg of sodium each day on average(平均), the health department said.For most Americans, eating in the restaurants such as Chipotle(小辣椒) and Subway(赛百味)is thought to be more healthy. The new menu symbol may be an eye-opener for people who go to eat in these restaurants. Until Tuesday, they may havent noticed that there is 2,790 mg sodium in a Chipotle loaded chicken burrito(双层鸡肉卷). And a foot-long spicy Italian sub(香辣三明)has 2,980 mg sodium in Subway.Getting New Yorkers to start watching their sodium intake is a first step. And people should do more to improve their health. “Things are not going to work out great if all you do is just not eat salt,” Weintraub said. “But maybe, just maybe, theyll start to watch how much they eat, maybe they will get off the subway a stop earlier and walk, instead of taking the elevator, they will walk two flights, there will be some weight loss.”32. A Chipotle loaded chicken burrito has _ sodium more than the daily limit.A. 490 mg B. 900 mg C. 2,790 mg D. 3,200 mg33. We can infer from the passage that _.A. all restaurants across the US will use the salt shaker symbolB. New Yorkers eat one teaspoon of salt each day on averageC. eating too much salt can cause heart disease and strokeD. New York will ban (禁止) smoking in public places34. The underlined word “eye-opener” in the passage probably means “_”.A. 喜悦 B. 愤怒 C. 失望 D. 震惊35. According to Weintraub, which is a healthy life style?A. People should eat no salt when they are old.B. Jim takes the elevator up and down.C. Lucy climbs a long flight of stairs.D. We should eat meals which are high in sodium.第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。Five steps to better handwritingSome kids love handwriting, but others hate when its time to put their pen to paper.
