When Mr.Knoll announced an oral book report, the idea of going up and having myclassmates staring at me while I talked filled me with anxiety.As for the date, if the boo

18、k report was due in two weeks, I would do itright then. Mr. Knoll, though, gave us a month to get the report ready, so Ithought I had plenty of time. Finally, I chose Fire-Hunter by Jim Kjelgaard. It looked really interesting. I read the first few pagesand then I set it aside. I wasnt worried. I had

19、 plenty of time. Then the book got buried in the clutter(雜物）in my room.Before I knew it, the date of the book report was a week away. Some kids had already finished. Iwas in a panic. I raced home and found the book. Trembling（顫抖），I turned to the back and discoveredthere were 218 pages! I read like c

20、razyThe last day came. When Mr. Knoll called on me to give my report, I still had eighty pages to go.The class looked sorry for me when I pulled myself forward. They could see my fear.My book is Fire-Hunter, by Jim Kjelgaard, I began slowly. Then I started to tell the story and theclass seemed inter

21、ested. To my surprise, I discovered I was enjoying myself. However, I had no ideahow the book ended. I really didnt know what came over me.

I have never seen her angry at anything a

25、nd never heard her say a harsh (苛刻) word to anyone or about anyone.Happy and her husband Ben, 70, have a huge garden. They spent many happy hours together working on it. Most of the neighbors watched interestingly as Ben doubled the size of their garden. As the cost of food climbed faster than Bens

26、beans, we all wished we also had such a large garden. As the rest of us spent our dollars at the market, Happy could be seen picking beans in her back yard.Last month, Happy and Ben invited most of the neighborhood over for an “all-day food fest”. We were told to bring gloves and arrive very early i

27、n the morning. We didnt know what was about to take place.By 9:00 am, there were nine of us in the garden picking tomatoes, beans, okra, and squash. By 10:00 am, there was lots of laughter. We shared a lot of stories. By five oclock, everyone was a little drunk from the wine and beer. After dinner,

28、we played games. As we were leaving, Happy and Ben handed each of us a shopping bag filled with the bounty（收成）of the day, already packaged and frozen. What a delightful gift!Well, the point wasnt so much about the food. The true gift was a day of friends enjoying one anothers company. None of it wou

29、ld have happened if it had been for Happy and Bens garden. Now they have a blog about gardening in case we decided to plant a garden. And I am so proud of my tomato plants!1According to paragraph 2, people wish they also had a garden so that_.A they didnt have to spend so much money on foodB they co

31、now each other.C To let them enjoy what they grew in the garden.D To ask them to share some interesting stories.3What did the writer most probably think of the time he spent in the garden?A It was too long. B It was wonderful.C It was not as good as he thought. D It was too terrible.D16、You are give

32、n many chances in life to choose to be a victim(受害者) or creator. When you choose to be a victim, the world is a cold and difficult place. “They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering. “They” are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as “they” are around. Or you may blam

33、e yourself for all your problems, then internalizing(內(nèi)化)your victimization. The truth is, your life is likely to stay that way as long as you feel a need to blame yourself or others.Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently. They know there are persons who might like to control

34、their lives, but they dont let this get in the way. They know they have their weaknesses, yet they dont blame themselves when they fail. Whatever happens, they have choice in the matter. They believe their dance with each sacred(神圣的)moment of life is a gift and that storms are a natural part of life

35、 which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth.Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same problems, yet their experience of life is different worlds. Victims are easy to be in anger, guilt, and other emotions that cause others-and even th

36、emselves-to feel like victims, too. Creators choose love, inspiration, and other qualities which inspire（鼓舞）not only themselves, but all around them. Both victims and creators always have choice to decide the direction of their lives.In fact, all of us play the victim or the creator at different poi

37、nts in our lives. One person, on losing a job or a special relationship, may feel as if it is the end of the world and go into terrible suffering for months, years, or even a lifetime. Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the sadness, then accept the loss and soon move on

38、to be a powerful creative strength in his life.In every moment and every situation, you can choose to have fuller, richer life by setting a clear goal to change the victim within, and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are.1What does the word “they” in Paragraph 1 probably refe

39、r to?APeople and things around you. BChances and problems.CCreators and their choices. DVictims and their sufferings.2What can we learn from the passage?ACreators have the ability to predict future life.BCreators deal with ups and downs of life wisely.CVictims can influence more people than creators

40、.DVictims and creators face quite different things in life.3The examples mentioned in Paragraph 4 show that _.Astrong feelings of sufferings in life pull people into victims.Bpeople need family support to deal with sufferings in life.Cit takes creators quite a long time to clear out their pains.Done

41、s experiences decide his attitude toward his life.4What is the writers purpose in writing this passage?ATo describe victims and creators.BTo compare victims with creators.CTo suggest changing from victims to creators.DTo explain the relation between victims and creators.E17、I stood there listening t

42、o my father shout at top of his voice. The look on his face said that one of us had done something wrong.“Which one of you did this?”We all looked down at the step. There was childs handwriting in chalk there. I was very frightened. I hope no one could see it. Would he guess it was me? I was so scar

43、ed. When he asked me, I lied, “Not me, dad.” The other denied(否認) it as well. Of course, we all knew that one of us must have done it. But as the youngest and smallest of the three, I just couldnt find courage to tell the truth.To find out who had written on the step, Father gave us each a piece of

44、paper and a pencil. “I want each of you to write exactly what you see on the step.” I tried my best to write the words differently. I didnt want dad to be able to tell it was me.He gathered up our paper and looked at them. “Since none of you will say yes, then I will punish you all.” I stood there a

45、nd said nothing. The last thing I wanted was for Dad to punish me!“I did it.” My sister walked forward and said she had done something she hadnt. she was punished for a month.We didnt talk about that day for many years. Not until we were all older and I knew it was safe to finally tell my dad it was

46、 really me. I always felt sorry because of it. That was the last time I let anyone_for me. I told myself, “One must see to what he or she has done.”1The writers father was _ when he saw the handwriting in chalk on the step.Avery happy Bvery sadCvery angry Dvery excited2The underlined word “take the

47、blame” most probably means _ in Chinese.A撒謊 B承擔責任C接受懲罰 D解決困難3The writers sister told a lie because _.Ashe liked telling liesBshe was afraid of being punishedCshe didnt like her fatherDshe didnt want her father to punish them all4Which of the following statements is true?AThe writer kept telling lies

48、.BHer sister told the truth.CThe writers father punished the children.DNone of the children told the truth.F18、We can express thoughts and feelings and send sounds and pictures on our smart phones today. We also communicate by using programs like Skype and Face Time. We cant send tastes, smells or t

49、ouch, of course. But scientists in Britain are trying to develop a way for smart phones to do just that.Adrian David Cheok is a professor at City University in London. He wants people to experience communication using all of their senses. He said In the real world, we can open up the glass, open the

50、 window. We can touch, we can taste, we can smell in the real world.To give users a sense of taste, researchers designed two electrodes (電極）that are placed on the tongue. A chemical process creates different tastes through molecules (微粒)on the surface of the tongue. This chemical process sends elect

51、rical signals that convince the brain that a person is tasting something. They have already created sour, salty, sweet and bitter tastes.You put these two silver electrodes in your mouth, you put your tongue in between and then it stimulates electrically your tongue and you get a virtual taste perception in your brain.A device(設(shè)備）called Scentee permits users to have the sense of smell. Scentee plugs into a smart phone and can spray tiny clouds of fragrances, including flowers, fruits and coffee. Professor Cheok says the person speaking can activate the de
