Poverty, hard work, and even the fact that Father March was away with the Union armies could not down the spirits of Meg, Jo, Amy, and Beth, as the March girls called their mother.The March sisters tried to be good but had their share of faults. Pretty Meg was often displeased with the schoolchildren she taught; boyish Jo was easy to become angry; golden-haired schoolgirl Amy liked to show up; but Beth, who kept the house, was loving and gentle always.The happy days passed and darkness came when a telegram arrived for Mrs. March. “Your husband is very ill,” it said, “come at once.” The girl tried to be brave when their mother left for the front. They waited and prayed. Little Beth got scarlet fever (猩红热) when she was taking care of the sick neighbor. She became very ill but began to recover by the time Marmee was back. When Father came home from the front and at that joyful Christmas dinner they were once more all together.Three years later the March girls had grown into young womanhood. Meg became Mrs. Brooke, and after a few family troubles got used to her new state happily. Jo had found pleasure in her literary efforts. Amy had grown into a young lady with a talent for design and an even greater one for society. But Beth had never fully regained her health, and her family watched her with love and anxiety.Amy was asked to go and stay in Europe with a relative of the Marches. Jo went to New York and became successful in her writing and had the satisfaction of seeing her work published there. But at home the bitterest blow was yet to fall. Beth had known for some time that she couldnt live much longer to be with the family and in the spring time she died.News came from Europe that Amy and Laurie, the grandson of a wealthy neighbor, had planned to be married soon. Now Jo became ever more successful in her writing and got married to Professor Bare and soon afterwards founded a school for boys.And so the little women had grown up and lived happily with their children, enjoying the harvest of love and goodness that they had devoted all their lives to.36. The members of the March family were Father March, Mrs. March and their _.A. four daughters B. five daughtersC. son and four daughters D. son and five daughters37. Who was the most miserable(悲惨的)in life among the March girls?A. Jo B. BethC. AmyD. Meg38. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. The march Family B. The March ParentsC. The March Girls D. The March Relatives39. It can be inferred from the passage that the March family had _.A. both happiness and sadness B. wealthy neighborsC. more girls than boys D. a lot of rich relativesBIn some children who go blind, certain parts of the brain that normally control vision appear to switch jobs and focus instead on sound, a new study has found.The study, by researchers at the University of Montreal, involved 7 adults who could see and 12 adults who had lost their vision when they were children. Each participant sat in a room with 16 loudspeakers at different locations. The room was designed so that there were no echoes. During the experiment, the speakers irregularly produced sounds. Participants had to point to where the sounds were coming from. Meanwhile, the researchers monitored blood flow in the brains of the participants to see which brain structures were working during the task.The results showed that five of the blind participants were very good at pointing to where sounds were coming from. In these people, blood flow increased in the visual cortexan area at the back of the right side of the brain. This part of the brain is usually associated with vision.The other seven blind participants showed no increase in activity in the visual cortex. These people didnt do very well at picking out where sounds were coming from. Now, the researchers are looking at whether these people have gained an enhanced sense of touch instead of sound to replace their lost vision.These scientists say that their study shows how adaptable parts of the brain can be.40. The purpose of the experiment described in the passage is to find whether _.A. blind children can regain their sightB. blind people have a better sense of soundC. the sense of touch is better among blind peopleD. blood flow in the brains of blind people is slower41. The participants of the experiment were asked _.A. to tell the difference between 16 soundsB. to take down the time each sound lastedC. to identify the direction the sound came fromD. to detect the number of the loudspeakers42. In the experiment, blood flow in the brains of the participants was measured in order to _.A. learn about the way they react to echoesB. look for the way of enhancing hearing abilityC. find which parts of the brain were functioningD. expose the relationship between seeing and touching43. Which of the following statements best summarizes the main idea of the passage?A. Most blind people have a well-developed sense of touch.B. People go blind because of the breakdown of their visual cortex.C. Most blind people have a better sense of sound than normal people.D. Human brains can adjust themselves after the loss of a certain function.CTragedy at the CircusIn yesterdays circus(马戏团) show, a tiger suddenly attacked its trainer and had to be shot dead. As the circus packed up and left, circus officials said the show would go on, even without tigers.However, the officials cant simply turn a blind eye to the ethical problems left behind. Even before this tragedy(悲剧), animal rights activists protested against keeping wild animals in unnatural conditions and forcing them to suffer for the profit(利润) of circus organizers.It is now time for us to take effective steps to make sure that circus animals are treated properly.Circus safe for animalsOur circus recently suffered a most tragic event in its history. While we are thankful for the pity from the public, we are also astonished by the opinion expressed in “ Tragedy at the Circus.”First, our performing animals are not taken from the wild. As to the ethical problems, we always believe humans and animals can and should live together nicely. To us, the performing animals are representatives of their species(物种), and our circus is one of the only places left wiling to support this special role performing animals in the existence of the species. Those who argue that circus life is harmful to animals show little knowledge of these facts. Life in the “ wild” is unsafe, but a continuous struggle for existence. To overlook these realities is the greatest fault against the animal kingdom.This circus has proven that animals are stronger and smarter than we could imagine. Within the circus is a joyful atmosphere for both animals and humans: people are educated, and species saved.44. What is the main purpose of the first passage?A. To show pity for the performing animals.B. To express worries about animal trainers safety.C. To deal with the difficult situations of the circus.D. To call for action to protect circus animals.45. What will the circus most probably do?A. Take no notice of the tragedy.B. Continue its performance.C. Use fewer wild animals.D. Limit its profit.46. What does the circus think of its performing animals?A. They are as clever as human beings.B. They struggle continuously with human beings for existence.C. They are helpful in saving their species.D. They have equally natural living conditions as wild animals.47. What is the most probable relationship between the two passages?A. A public request and a newspaper report.B. A newspaper article and a reply to it.C. Two parts of a newspaper article.D. Two newspaper reports.DWhile parents, particularly mothers, have always been attached to their infants (婴儿), societal conditions frequently made this attachment difficult to maintain (保持). First of all, the high infant death rate in the premodern times meant that such attachments often ended in hopelessness. Perhaps to prevent the sadness that infant death caused, a number of societal practices developed which worked against early attachment of mother and child.One of these premodern attachment-discouraging practices was to leave infants unnamed until they had survived into the second year. Another practice that discouraged maternal (母亲的) attachment was tightly wrapping (包裹) infants. Wrapping effectively prevented the close physical interactions like stroking (抚摸) and kissing that are so much a part of modern mothers and fathers affection for their infants.A third practice which had the same distancing effect was wet-nursing. Breast-feeding (母乳哺育) was not popular among the well-to-do in the early modern times; infants were often fed by wet nurses hired for the purpose. In some places, such as nineteenth-century France, city infants were sent to wet nurses in the country. Often a wet nurse would feed her own child first, leaving little for the city infant - who, in many case, died. In Rouen, the death rate for children sent to a wet nurse was 35 percent.48. Babies were unnamed until they were two so that _.A. an old social custom could be kept upB. maternal attachment could be maintainedC. they could have better chances to surviveD. their parents would not be too sad if they died49. Why were babies wrapped?A. To protect them from the cold.B. To distance their mothers from them.C. To make them feel more comfortable.D. To make it easy for their mothers to hold them.50. Wet nurses were women who _.A. babysat city infantsB. fed babies of other familiesC. sent their babies to the countryD. failed to look after their babies51. Which is the best title for the passage?A. Societal Conditions in Premodern TimesB. Practices of Reducing Maternal AttachmentC. Poor Health Service and High Infant Death RateD. Differences between Modern and Premodern ParentsEIn a recently published book, I came across some exercises with interesting names such as fishbone diagrams, lotus flowers and clustering. As I used these exercises in my classes, I noticed that students were interested. They said more and wrote more. They enjoyed expressing their ideas and sharing them in groups. They were no longer passively waiting for the bell , but actively taking part in the lesson. I find that creativity can act as a way to increase participation and improve fluency.Creativity has become a popular word in recent years. Scholars in arts, psychology, business, education and science are all working to get a deeper understanding of it. Robert J. Stemberg is a creativity specialist and Yale professor of psychology. He defines creativity as “the ability to produce work that is both new (original) and appropriate(applicable to the situation ) ”. this definition is useful, as we want our students to use language in a new way and to use it correctly and properly. Mot scholars say there are two types of creativity: big “C” creativity and small “c” creativity. Big “C” creativity refers to genius level thinking that results in artistic masterpieces and scientific breakthroughs. Small “c” creativity refers to everyday level thinking that can be used in any situation our emphasis is on the latter. While it goes without saying that any of our students could go on to be the next Picasso or Edison, our aim is to help students produce more ideas and use language in a new way.52. The underlined words “waiting for the bell ” in the first paragraph probably means_.A. longing for a phone callB. hoping to have a bellC. expecting the end of the classD. waiting to speak in the class53. It can be inferred from the passage that the author thinks the exercises in the book were _.A. popular B. useful C. scientific D. creative54. When you use a familiar word in a new way, you are _.A creative in the sense of big “C” creativity.B. creative in the sense of small “c” creativity.C. not creative in the sense of big “C” creativity.D. not creative in the sense of small “c” creativity.55. The main purpose of the passage is to _.A. show how useful the book is.B. explain what creativityC. discuss how one can be creativeD. tell what reaching aims at 第一节短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10
