That cold January night,I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco.There I was，walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre.With opening night only a week ago,I was still learning my lines.I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time.As I walked,I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco.City life had become too much for me.As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings,I felt very small and cold.I began running,both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers.Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.About a block from my apartment,I heard a sound behind me.I turned quickly,half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun.The street was empty.All I saw was a shining streetlight.Still,the noise had made me nervous,so I started to run faster.Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been.It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.Suddenly I wasn t cold or tired anymore.I ran out of the door and back to where I d heard the noise.Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes,my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search,I heard the garbage truck pull up to the sidewalk next to me.When a voice called from the inside,“Alisa Camacho?”I thought I was dreaming.How could this man know my name?The door opened,and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eye.“Is this what youre looking for?”he asked,holdin g up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 A.M.by the time I got into bed.I wouldnt get much sleep that night,but I had gotten my wallet back.I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life.I realized that the city couldn t be a bad place as lo ng as people were willing to help each other.21.How did the writer feel when she was walking home after work?A.Cold and sick B.Fortunate and helpful C.Satisfied and cheerful D.Disappointed and helpless 22.On her way home the writer _.A.lost her wallet unknowingly B.was stopped by a garbage truck driver C.was robbed of her wallet by an armed man D.found some homeless people following her 23.In the fifth paragraph,why did the writer say she was dreaming?小学+初中+高中+努力=大学小学+初中+高中+努力=大学A.Someone offered to take her back home.B.A red-haired man came to see her.C.She heard someone call her name D.Her wallet was found in a garbage truck.24.From the text,we can infer that the writer _.A.would stop working at night B.would stay on in San Francisco C.would make friends with cleaners D.would give up her job at the bank.B I want to start with the responsibility you have to yourself.Every single one of you has something that youre good at.Every single one of you has something to offer.And you have a responsibility to yourself to discover what that is.That s the opportunity an education can provide.Maybe you could be a great writer maybe even good enough to write a book or articles in a newspaper but you might not know it until you write that English paper that English class paper thats assigned to you.Maybe you could be an innovator or an inventor maybe even good enough to come up with the next iPhone or the new medicine or vaccine but you might not know it until you do your project for your science class.Maybe you could be a mayor or a senator or a Supreme Court justice but you might not know that until you join student government or the debate team.And no matter what you want to do with your life,I guarantee that youll need an education to do it.You want to be a doctor,or a teacher,or a police officer?You want to be a nurse or an architect,a lawyer or a member of our military?You re going to need a good education for every single one of those careers.You cant drop out of school and just drop into a good job.You ve got to train for it and work for it and learn for it.And this isnt just important for your own life and your own future.What you make of your education will decide nothing less than the future of this country.The future of America depends on you.What youre learning in school today will determine whether we as a nation can meet our greatest challenges in the future.25.What is the responsibility you have to yourself?A.To discover what that is.B.To study for the future of America.C.To be a great writer.D.To be a teacher.26.What s the opportunity an education can provide according to the passage?A.To be a president.B.To be a millionaire.C.To be a mayor or a

trained.28.The main idea of this passage is _.A.education that America can provide B.what you want to do with your life C.the importance of education D.responsibility C More than 50 years ago,the psychologist Carl Rogers suggested that simply loving our children wasn t enough.We have to love them unconditionally,he said for who they are,not for what they do.However,we are often given much advice on the opposite-conditional parenting:turn up the parental love when they re good,hold it back when theyre not.A problem with conditional parenting is that it might be just another method of control,in other words,punishment.Roger warned that children were likely not to get the unconditional acceptance and love when it counted in their growth.In a research done by Edward L.Deci,a leading American expert on the psychology of motivation,more than 100 college students were asked whether the love they had received from their parents had seemed to depend on whether they had succeeded in school,practiced hard for sports,or controlled feelings like anger and fear.It turned out that children who received conditional love were indeed somewhat more likely to act as the parent wanted.But it came at a high price.First,these children tended to dislike their parents.Second,they admitted that the way they acted often owed more to a“strong internal pressure”than to“a real sense of choice.”Moreover,their happiness after succeeding at somethingwas usually short-lived,and they often felt ashamed.In practice,Dr.Deci and others suggested that unconditional acceptance by parents as well as teachers should be accompanied by explaining reasons for requests,offering opportunities for the child to take part in making decisions,being encouraging without controlling and actively imagining how things look from the childs point of view.The last of these features is the most important in unconditional parenting.29.From the passage we can conclude that _.A.parent love is probably often used to punish our children 小学+初中+高中+努力=大学小学+初中+高中+努力=大学 B.unconditional love means that parents have no right to guide their children C.unconditional love can allow a child to make decisions all by himself D.successful children benefit a lot from conditional parenting 30.From the fourth paragraph,we can see _.A.conditional love is playing a positive role in educating the children B.conditional parenting can be harmful to the parent-child relationship C.the happiness and joy with success can inspire the children for long D.the advantages of conditional parenting overweigh the disadvantages 31._ is the most important thing when parents offer unconditional love.A.Explaining reasons for requests B.Letting the child take part in decision-making process C.Being encouraging and without controlling D.Whether the child feel being loved and accepted D Teachers say the digital age has had a good influence and a not-so-good influence on this generation of American teenagers.More than 2,000 teachers took an online survey.Three-quarters of the teachers said the Internet and digital search tools have had a“mostly positive”effect on their students research habits and skills.But 64 percent said the technologies“do more to distract(使分心)students than to help them academically.”And 87 percent agreed that these technologies are creating an“easily distracted generation with short attention spans.”The Pew Internet Project did the survey with the National Writing Project.Judy Buchanan is the vice director of the National Writing Project and a co-author of the report.Ms.Buchanan says digital research tools are helping students learn more and faster.“Teachers really favor these tools because they are ways to make some of the learning exciting and engaging.Young people favor these tools.The goal is to really help them become creators of meaningful content,and not just sort of consumers.”But one problem the survey found is that many students lack digital literacy.They trust too much of the information they find on the Internet.Judy says these students havent developed the skills to determine the quality of online information.“It s something that really has to be taught and paid attention to.Because in a world in which things happen quickly,you do need to step back,reflect and analyze the information you have.”Another problem is blamed on something that might not seem like a problem at all:being able to quickly find information online.Teachers say the result is a reduction in the desire and ability of their students to work hard to find answers.They say students are overly dependent on search engines and do not make enough use of printed books or research libraries.小学+初中+高中+努力=大学小学+初中+高中+努力=大学 Many teachers are also concerned that the Internet makes it easy for students to copy work done by others instead of using their own abilities.32.The text mainly tells us _.A.all the students use digital tools B.the Internet is playing a key role C.teachers encourage using digital tools D.digital tools bring about benefits and problems 33.Which of the following best shows the structure of the text?A.B.C.D.(=Para 1,=Para 2,=Para 3,=Para 4,=Para 5)34.The underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably means _.A.students do not have the right digital tools B.students do not always have access to the Internet C.students havent the ability to adjust themselvesD.stu dents can t judge online information properly 35.Some students dont tend to work hard because _.A.they can get answers on the Internet quickly B.printed books and libraries around

day for high school seniors to accept or reject offers of admission in the fall.But according to a recent report,there is a great change.Acceptance rates at the top colleges this year were lower than ever.36 These days,college applicants are applying to more colleges because online and common applications make the process easier.37 On the other hand,deciding students for top colleges to accept can be difficult because it takes much time.Students may not like being put on waiting lists.Also,common colleges work more to get the students they accept to accept them.Some colleges hold visiting days that offer a chance to attend classes and stay overnight.Some 小学+初中+高中+努力=大学小学+初中+高中+努力=大学universities send gifts.38 For many families,the most important thing colleges can do is show them the money,especially this year;the weak economy makes parents nervous.39 The recent problems that spread from the housing market to credit markets have even affected students loans.So lately,top schools have to spare lots of money to increase their financial aid for students.40 The Education Department expects the number of high school graduates to start to go down.This will happen as the last of the children of the baby boom generation finish high school.The number is not expected to start rising again until 2016.A.Besides,top colleges are facing changes in the population.B.What contributes to
