12、ink in the world (after water), was invented by accident? Many people believe that tea was first drunk about 5000 years ago. It is said that a Chinese ruler called Shen Nong was the first 2 (discover) tea as a drink. One day Shen Nong 3 (boil) drinking water over an open fire. Some leaves from a tea

13、 plant fell into the water and remained there for some time. It produced a nice smell so he tasted the brown water. It was quite delicious, and so, one of the worlds favorite 4(drink) was invented. A few5 (thousand) years later, Lu Yu, the saint of tea, mentioned Shen Nong in his book Cha Jing. The

14、book describes how tea plants were grown and used to make tea. It also 6 (discuss) where the finest tea leaves were produced and what kinds of water were used. It is believed that tea 7 (bring) to Korea and Japan during the 6th and 7th centuries. In England, tea 8(appear) until around 1610, but in l

15、ess than 100 years, it had become the national drink. The tea trade from China to 9(west) countries took place in the 19th century. This helped to spread the popularity of tea and the tea plant to more places around the world. Even though many people now know about tea culture, the Chinese are witho

16、ut doubt the ones who best understand the 10(natural) of tea. 阅读理解A13、We always regard dogs as mans best friends. But what about cats?Cats can also do us a favor sometimes.Here is a comparison of the two animals.A Friend Helps You When Youre Sick.DogsWhen Catherine lay down on the sofa, Pepe stared(

17、盯) into her eyes and kept sniffing(嗅). After being pushed away, he suddenly jumped onto her chest. Thats when Catherine felt a pain that made her visit a doctor, and a fast-growing cancer was found. Months later, however, Pepe started staring and sniffing again. It seemed strange, but sure enough, C

18、atherines cancer had spread.CatsAlana immediately finds a chair when Tee sits and stares directly into her face. Thats because Tee is warning her that she is about to faint(昏倒), which can happen as often as three times a day. But Alana wont get hurt if she sits down. Not only does Tee warn Alana, bu

19、t also her husband. Then the cat stays with Alana until she recovers.A Friend Saves Your LifeDogsRyan fell into the water by accident. The river was full of ice, and Ryan was very cold and his body temperature was dropping dangerously low. Luckily, he was found by Chelsea, who was playing with her d

Then she found smoke around her. With Joey help

Well, good timing for a start. You can have a great idea which the public simply doesnt w

24、ant . yet. The Italian Giovanni Caselli invented the first fax(传真)machine in the 1860s. Although the machine was excellent, his invention quickly died a commercial(商业的) death. It was not until the 1980s that the fax became very common in every office. too late for Giovanni Caselli. Money also helps.

25、 The Frenchman Denis Papin (1647-1712) had the idea for a steam engine (蒸汽机)almost a hundred years before the better-remembered Scotsman James Watt was even born. but he never had enough money to build one. You also need to be patient (it took scientists nearly eighty years to develop a light bulb w

26、hich actually worked). but not too patient. In the 1870s, Elisha Gray, a professional inventor from Chicago, developed plans for a telephone. Gray saw it as no more than “a beautiful toy”. However, when he finally sent details of his invention to the Patent Office(专利局) in February， 1876, it was too

27、late. Almost the same invention had arrived two hours earlier. and the young man who sent it, Alexander Graham Bell, will always be remembered as the inventor of the telephone.Of course what you really need is a great ideabut if you havent got one, a walk in the country and careful look at nature ca

28、n help. The Swiss scientist, George de Mestral, had the idea for Velcro（魔术贴）when he found his clothes covered in sticky seed pods after a walk in the country. During a similar walk in the French countryside some 250 years earlier, Rene Antoine Ferchault de Reaumur had the idea that paper could be ma

29、de from wood when he found an abandoned wasps nest（蜂巢）.You also need good commercial sense. Willy Higinbotham was a scientist doing nuclear（核能的） research in the Brookhaven National Laboratory in Upton, USAIn 1958, the public were invited to an exhibition in the Laboratory to see their work, but both

30、 parents and children were more interested in a tennis video game on the screen. Soon hundreds of people were ignoring the other exhibits to play the first ever computer gamemade from a simple laboratory instrument called an “oscilloscope”. Higinbotham, however, never made money from his invention:

31、he thought people were only interested in the game because the other exhibits were so boring!1How many factors do inventors need according to the passage?A3. B4. C5. D6.2The word “ignoring” in the last paragraph probably means “_”.Ahaving no idea of Bdoing no good toCgetting no chance of Dpaying no

32、attention to3What can you learn from the passage?AGiovanni Caselli invented the first fax machine in the 1980s.BDenis Papin afforded to build a steam engine a hundred years ago.CElisha Gray missed the chance to be the inventor of the telephone.DGeorge de Mestral got an idea from a walk in a French c

Sarah Murphy tries to do something about it.The

34、 seventh grader from Massachusetts, in the United States, decorates (装饰) lunch bags for the homeless. She wants to bring hope to those people. The decorated bags, together with a lunch, will be given to homeless people in the town of Beverly, through a charity (慈善) program.To attract the help of mor

35、e children. she reached out to a local library and made a program. They set up a coloring station in the library. Children may take a bag, draw and write a message of hope and leave it on the front desk. They can also take it home and return it after coloring.Murphy bought 100 brown lunch bags and p

36、ut them in the library. Children at the library had colored them. She would happily buy more.Murphy first heard about the charity program from her friends. She has great interest in charity. She once donated money to charities and made gift bags for seniors at her school.1What is the passage mainly

40、00.D16、“I had a Welsh speaking test. Id had to memorize a paragraph in front of the whole class. I just couldnt do it,” says 13-year-old Mary. “I pretended to be ill.” But Mary did not enjoy her day off. “I watched TV all day it was boring. I wished I had gone to school.”Marys story is not unusual i

41、n Britain. According to the latest government figures, pupil absences are rising, despite schools_on truancy (逃学)Philippa James, a PhD researcher at Cardiff Universitys school of social sciences, thinks she knows why: “The more schools improve methods of detection（检查）, the more children work out bet

42、ter methods of deception.” Teenagers told her it was now harder to skip a single lesson, so theyd miss whole days to avoid being caught.For several years, James has researched student truancy of 60 teenagers, aged 13 and 14, including Mary, to see how the teenagers truant, for how long, and why.Thro

43、ugh online conversations and face-to-face interviews, she discovered that most truancy was “a response to factors within the school”. Truants are not necessarily less advanced or less intelligent. They complained of teachers who failed to engage them, and of “boring” lessons. “Many truants really en

44、joy school and believe in education, but drop out when aspects of it were ineffective.” James says.The views of students like Adam, who believes that skipping lessons has little impact on his schooling, were common. “I only take-off for a lesson, or a couple of days. It doesnt affect my education,”

45、he told James.James study concludes that schools need to address the question of why pupils want to leave in the first place. “Pupils need help from the start.” she says. “Its a two-way process schools must be responsive. We need to look at the reasons for truancy rather than the number, so that ins

46、tead of walking away from school, students have the skills and chances to talk through problems and make a change.”1What is one of the reasons for school truancy according to James study?ATruants are fallen behind in their studies.BTruants have no interest in school subjects.CTruants have more inter

47、esting things to do.DTruants are not satisfied with the teachers.2The underlined phrase “taking a hard line” (paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to“ ”.Aexperiencing a problem with Bhaving a strict attitude towardsCfinding it difficult to solve Dhaving little success with3By citing Adams remark, Jame

48、s wants to show that .Aschool education is not efficient and needs improvementBits a popular belief that occasional truancy wont cause much harmCschool truancy is becoming more serious and needs more concernDeven good students may sometimes need a break from school4What is Philippa James suggestion

49、to schools?ASchools should solve the problem of teachers.BSchools should be more active in helping beginner truants.CSchools should have a better control of hidden truants.DSchools should find out who truant and how they it.E17、 Our schools science festival just ended a few days ago. What interested

50、 me most was the time we spent making a car. It was made out of corrugated cardboard (瓦楞纸板), but could still hold a person, as well as move.We were excited about this idea, but we found it hard to make the car. It seemed impossible for a cardboard car to carry someone. Our physics teacher showed us

51、a video. There was some corrugated board shaped like “A” or “W” in the video, it could hold more weight. This gave us the idea to make the car after getting the proper materials (材料).Because there was not much time left for us, we had to finish it as quickly as possible, We talked about how the car

52、should be made and how to test it. I was glad that we were able to work closely with each other. Everyone saw the work as an interesting way to relax. When the car was finally finished, we J all wore a smile on our faces and found that all our work had been worth it, even after spending whole aftern

53、oons Working on it.We joined the competition after we finished the car. Though we didnt win any prizes, we found I something more meaningful than success, we learned new things about physics and learned how to get along with each other.1The car was made out of _.Athick stoneBspecial glassCstrong woo

55、he following sentences is TRUE?AThe car they made could hold a person and move.BIt was not very hard for them to make the car.CThey spent much money getting proper materials.DThere was enough time for them to make the car.F18、CWhy are you study habits different from those of your friends? Why do you

56、 seem to learn faster in some classes while more slowly in others? One reason you may not know is that people have different types. Scientists say there are three different learning types: Visual(视觉型)，Auditory(听觉型)，and Kinesthetic (动觉型)。Visual learners learn best by seeing. If you seem to easily rem

57、ember information from pictures, graphs(图表)，and videos, you are probably a visual learner. Youre not good at copying down what the teacher says in class. Never mind. You can draw graphs or pictures instead, if you find that works better for you.Auditory learners learn best by hearing. If you seem to

58、 easily remember things by hearing them, then you are probably an auditory learner. You must listen carefully while the teacher is speaking because its the easiest way for you to learn . Sometimes you may find that taking notes tops you from listening carefully. After class, you can write down what you remember or borrow your friends notes to copy.Kinesthetic learners learn best by doing. If you seem to learn best by working with your hands, you are probably a kinesthetic learner. Taking notes by writing can m
