6、 （飄揚(yáng)）over Johns head. He liked to watch the colors of the trees shine through the sunlight. It was the same color as his trumpet. John smiled when he thought of the music the leaves made. He looked at his watch; his father would meet him in a few minutes for their first practice in the park.John and

7、 his family lived in an apartment building. He began playing his trumpet in his own living room two weeks ago. Then the family next door had a new baby. To keep from waking up the baby, John was going to spend his practice time in the park. Although he enjoyed visiting the park, he didnt want to pra

8、ctice his music there.John was afraid that he would embarrass himself if he played the wrong notes. And he imagined his cheeks looking like a red, blown-up balloon. He didnt want people to watch him as he practiced his music. Unluckily, his father couldnt possibly understand how embarrassing it woul

9、d be!“John, are you ready?” pulling him out of his daydream, his father sat down and began to play his trumpet. John looked up at a golden tree. The leaves seemed to be dancing with the tune. He felt excited as he watched the people walking by and smiling at his father. He wanted to play like that!

10、Immediately, John placed his trumpet to the mouth and blew. Soon, John was having such a great time playing with his father that he didnt care if he had played a few bad notes. The golden tree was dancing while John was still playing. Now he and his neighbors could both be happy. 51. To keep from wa

John refused his fathers invitation to play the trumpet.CRecent research from the Pew Internet Project suggests that 90% of Americans aged from 12 to 17 use the Internet, and 51% of those teens use social networks. However, there are many po

14、ssible problems with social networking sites and the teenagers who use them. Apart from the social advantages, social networking sites can be used to record school research, develop artistic talents and experiment with other forms of subject creation. They provide a way to communicate with others wh

15、o share the same interests and to get helpful advice on ongoing projects.Along with these advantages come some dangers. For example, most social networking sites are open to all, especially MySpace, which is the most popular social network among teens in America. It means that they could be put in u

16、npleasant and frightening situations.A greater danger is that teens may become objects of the people with secret purposes. The secrecy of some social networking sites makes it easy for dangerous people to find young teens and invite them into dangerous conversations. Its easy for them to pretend as

17、teens and draw children into dangerous real-world communication as well. Then further hurt might be on its way. Another danger is identity stealing, which can happen when teens share too much information about their names, dates of birth and locations. Therefore, its very important to make sure teen

18、s are safe when they use social networks. Many of the same rules that work for online chat work for these sites: Dont use your real name. Dont give out personal information to people you dont know. A last name and a townare enough for a bad guy to find where you are. Dont believe that people are who

19、 they say to be. Immediately end any communication that makes you uncomfortable and report it to a parent.Only if you are sure of your safety, can you enjoy the fun brought by social networking. Besides, trying to deal with all problems on your own can lead to terrible results. Remember, asking your

20、 parents or school officials for help doesnt mean you are unable to do anything but wiser than many others. 55. How many dangers of using social networks are mentioned in the passage?A. 2. B. 3.

We can infer from the passage that _.A. the dangers are similar when chatting

22、online and surfing social networks B. more than half American teenagers aged from 12 to 17 use social networksC. teens who ask for help are wiser when meeting problems on social networks D. there are more disadvantages than advantages for teens to use social networksD “You dont have to be great to g

23、et started, but you have to get started to be great.” I believe it is thought normal in todays society to just let life happen to us. I also believe that we sometimes damage our well-planned thoughts about success because it is easier to just carry on as usual rather than try with the possibility of

24、 failure in mind.The main reason why most people never get moving is because they have no real idea about what they want. Without a certain result already set in your mind, it is really difficult to get going, and even if you do, your motivation (動力) may soon disappear and you give up before too lon

25、g.Why not consider what is really important in your life? Write down what excites you, what would truly make you happy and what problems you have. At the end of the week, take a careful look at the notes you have taken. You will soon begin to see a clearer picture of what direction you should be hea

26、ding.Knowledge is useless without action. You can read every book on any subject but your life will stay the same if you do not use that knowledge. This may seem clear but the reason why the self-help industry is thriving (繁榮的) is because people read and read and read but never use the information p

27、rovided.Knowledge is fantastic but it is not life changing until used. I love to read personal development material to keep a positive attitude towards my life, but I also realize that if I dont set goals to achieve, then I will always be a talk the talk person who is great at giving advice but usel

28、ess at realizing it. If you have no plans of practicing what you say, then it may be best to keep your mouth closed. Do you want to know who you are? Dont ask. Act! Action will explain you. Whatever excuses we have for not living up to our talent, the fact is that time will always move forward. Be w

29、hatever you want to be and whatever you can be. Always remember the only limits we have are the ones we create for ourselves. Life is not what we think, it is what we experience when we act upon the thoughts we entertain. 58. In Paragraph Two, the writer wants to _. A. tell us what people need to ge

Several different groups of people have traveled through and lived in the area. These groups often left their mark with rock paintings and drawings. Scientis

44、ts have studied these ancient works of art to learn more about the people who made them.

51、and probably never weighed more than 110 pounds, but Miss Bessie was a towering presence in the classroom. She was the only woman tough enough to make me read Beowulf and think for a few stupid days that I liked it. From 1938 to 1942, she taught me English, history and a lot more than I realized. I

52、shall never forget the day she scolded (批評) me into reading Beowulf. “But Miss Bessie,” I complained, “I aint much interested in it.” Her large brown eyes became sharp. “Boy,” she said, “how dare you say aint to me! Ive taught you better than that.” “Miss Bessie,” I said, “Im trying to join the foot

53、ball team, and if I go around saying it isnt and they arent, the guys are gonna laugh me off the team.” “Boy,” she replied, “youll play football because you have guts (勇氣).

Negroes, as we were called then, were not allowed in the town library, except to sweep floors or clean tables. But w

55、ith the help of some nice whites, Miss Bessie kept getting books out of the white library. That is how she introduced me to the Brontës, Byron and Keats. “If you dont read, you cant write, and if you cant write, you might as well stop dreaming,” Miss Bessie once told me. So I read whatever Miss Bessie told me to, and tried to remember the things she insisted that I store away. It could be embarrassing to be unprepared when Miss Bessie said, “Get up and tell the class who Frances Perkins is and what you think about her.” Forty-five years later, I can still recite her “t
