13．One of the school days that I remember is my first day of school．Being a first grader seemed exciting to me then，and I was really happy．I was to study in an all？girls school．My mother took me to the front door of the classroom and left．I didn't mind because I didn't want to appear too childish．
The classroom fitted about forty students with still some room to spare．We sat in groups，six tables per group．I chose a seat and sat there while waiting for other girls to arrive．It didn't take that long and the other tables were soon full．There wasn't much chatting going on，and it seemed my classmates were very shy．After all，it was a truly new environment for us．The girls in my group were also shy and most of them were looking down．Finally，a girl sitting in front of me broke the silence-she introduced herself as Amanda．She then burst_out speaking about her family．The four other girls paid attention to what she said with an occasional（偶爾的）nod sometimes．
I lost what she said a few minutes after that．The next thing I know was that she was already talking about her cat．"Do you know its name？"she asked me．I was in little surprised at the sudden question．I thought about it for a while，and then finally answered．"I don't know．It could be anything．"The question was repeated to the other girls but with the same result．Amanda smiled proudly，happy that nobody could guess her cat's name．
"Its name is Coco，a female（雌性） cat．Oh，I almost forget-what are your names？"
36．How did the writer feel on the first day of school？B

4．For as early as I could remember，my mother had been a bright，cheerful woman deeply interested and involved in the world around her．However，in the last fifteen years of her life，she had to live with senile dementia （老年癡呆）．I would go to my home to pay her a visit in California and she would curiously look at me and then ask，"Who are you？"I would answer，"I'm your own son，of course．""Where do you live？"She would ask．"In Virginia"，I would tell her．"Isn't that interesting，"she would say，"I have a son in Virginia．"
Mother seemed only forgetful as well as confused at the beginning of that disease，but sometime later she would go through different time of intense anxiety．She would keep walking through the house she used to live in most of her life crying uneasily that she would like to go home．Or sometimes she left home and wandered away if she were unattended（無人照看） for a short time．
Hoping to make her happy and put her mind at ease I would take her in my car，visiting sites where she used to live when she was a child．In the yard of the hillside house in Shipman I sat in the car and admired the view of the old oaks and long green lawn．I pictured my mother that there was a little girl playing with the pet lamb she had been so fond of．I looked to her for some response．She shook her head and said，"I want to go home．"
Over the years I have decided that what my mother was calling home was not a place，but a time．I think it was a time when she was much younger，when her children were still underfoot，when her husband was still energetic and attentive．
Watching my mother's suffering set me wondering where I would have in mind if someday I couldn't find home and wanted to go there．In this family we tend to be long-lived and we grow fuzzy （糊涂的） minded as the years go by．At eighty I have already noticed some alarming symptoms（癥狀）．My doctor says the forgetfulness is only natural and that it comes with age．Still the fear of senile dementia is haunting there．Someday if and when I become even more cloudy minded than I am now，unable to drive and unable to tell you where"home"is，my dear son，I expect I will ask you to take me home，I know you will do your best to find the place I need to be．I leave these notes for your guidance．
21．Which of the following is NOT the symptom of the mother of the author？C
A．forgetful            B．confused             C．cheerful            D．uneasy
22．What's the meaning of the underlined word"picture"？B
A．?dāng)z影                   B．描繪                    C．出現(xiàn)                  D．繪畫
23．What can you infer from the third paragraph？A
A．The author cared much about his mother．
B．The mother of the author liked pet lambs very much．
C．The author found a very little girl who was playing with a pet lamb．
D．The mother of the author did not like her usual home．
24．What's the best title of the passage？D
A．Where Is Home？
B．A story about a son and a mother．
C．Everyone will suffer with senile dementia．
D．Take Mother Home．

1．If you want to teach children to read，below you will find some ideas to encourage reading in our children．（36）BBut remember，simplicity is the truth．The biggest encouragement comes from us-the parents．Children who come from a home where the parents read personally，value reading and have reading materials readily available are much more likely to become readers themselves．
Make books available and accessible（可接近的）．Children who become readers almost always come from homes where books and other reading materials are present throughout the house．Don't put your children's books out the way where your child cannot see them or cannot reach them himself．（37）D
Read yourself．（38）GIf your children see that you read，that you choose to read，and that you enjoy reading，they are more likely to develop the same habit and pursue the same activity．
（39）CThere are so many inexpensive，good books out there and something given or received as a gift becomes more valuable and cherished．My children routinely receive books as gifts from their grandmother，and they get so excited when they see her coming with them．They value books because they are valued by the important people in their lives．
Above all，make your read-aloud sessions（時間） fun．This is a great start to teach children to read because children love to make sound effects．（40）EFor example，in Cinderella we always make the sound of the clock chiming as it strikes midnight，"Dong…dong…dong．"We make knocking sounds as we read The Three Little Pigs when the wolf knocks on each of the three little pigs'doors．The kids really seem to like this added interaction and activity as we read．

A．Turn off the TV and provide quiet time．
B．Some of these ideas are very simple and basic．
C．Give books as gifts at birthday time or whenever．
D．Put the books near the floor within their reach．
E．Try to add them wherever you can when you read aloud．
F．He really enjoys being able to pick out his very own books．
G．Being a role model to your children is the best way to teach children to read．

8．Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse，according to the doctors． I feel there are a number of reasons for this．
Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded （包圍） by shops selling unhealthy，fatty foods，such as fried chicken and ice cream，at low prices． This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves． If there were fewer of these restaurants，then probably children would buy less take-away food．
There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight． I agree with this，because good eating habits begin early in life，long before children start to visit fast food shops． If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food，or are always allowed to choose what they eat，they will go for sweet and salty foods every time，and this will carry on throughout their lives．
There is a third reason for this situation． Children these days take very little exercise． They do not walk to school． When they get home，they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games． Not only is this an unhealthy pastime（消遣），it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food．What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports．
The above are the main reasons for this problem，and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active，as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits．

28．According to the text，what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food？B
A．Those who often take exercise．
B．Those who often watch television．
C．Those who often have meals at home．
D．Those who often walk to school．
29．The author thinks that children are becoming overweight becauseD
A．their parents often cook meals for them
B．they are too busy to go out and play
C．they can't choose what to eat
D．there are too many fast food shops around
30．The word"steering"underlined in the last sentence most probably meansB．
A．forcing     
B．guiding      
C．driving     
D．moving
31．The main purpose of the text is toC．
A．tell a story   
B．provide facts  
C．give advice    
D．compare opinions．

18．If you have a daughter，take the time to read this．It could save her a lot of heartache．Not to mention stomach aches，headaches，missed days of school，lower grades，eating issues and depression．
The sad truth is that every school，whether public or private，has mean girls．I bet you can still even remember who they are from your school．As a school consultant and mother of three daughters，I know firsthand both personally and professionallyhow much it hurts when girls are targeted by bullies（恃強凌弱者）．
The old saying"sticks and stones may break my bones，but words will never hurt me，"couldn't be further from the truth．While boys usually bully through intimidation （脅迫），girls bully through exclusion，also called relational aggression．Here's an example of a case of relational bullying，taken from my experience as a school consultant：
"Heather"was miserable because a girl in her class，"Leslie，"was not only saying mean things to her face，but getting the other girls in the class to exclude her with the age old line"You can't be friends with me，if you're friends with her．"In our sessions，Heather would complain that she didn't have anyone to play with because girls were afraid that if they hung around her they'd become Leslie's next target．
In order to improve the situation，I had to not only reduce the power Leslie had，but empower Heather as well．Here are some ideas that helped，adapted for use by parents：
Ask for specifics when your daughter mentions bullying．Who？Where？How？
Tell the principal and classroom teacher the specifics of how she is being bullied．Have them tell other teachers （i．e．，gym，art，music），hallway monitors and cafeteria staff so that everyone who comes in contact with her can be on the lookout and ready to interfere．
Explain to her that reporting an incident is not the same as tattling（打小報告），and have her tell an adult at school when she is being bullied．
Teach her to convey self-confidence by walking confidently，with her head up．Bullies target those they think are weaker．
Arrange opportunities for your daughter to socialize with her friends outside of school to help her maintain a strong social support system．
In Heather's case，these steps relieved the problem．But because it's tougher to catch girl bullies，it's extremely important for girls to tell an adult if they are being bullied．Unlike boys，who usually bully physically，mean girls often spread rumors，whisper as their target walks by，talk loudly about a party she wasn't invited to，give her the silent treatment，and as discussed above，tell others not to be friends with her．School personnel are there to help，but in order to do anything they must know a problem exists!

5．Selfies （自拍） have become an increasingly common way to capture memorable moments．When it comes to taking selfies，knowing the following tips can directly affect the quality of your final product．
The use of light is vital to improving image quality．Lights can help avoid shadows and create soft features on your face，so turn your face toward the main light source．If you want to be creative，play with light angles by turning your body，but make sure the photo is properly exposed and your face is lit from the front or the side．Besides，avoid taking selfies against the main light source or with overhead lighting．Additionally，natural light possesses a warmth that makes you look like you're glowing．
When taking selfies，angles also matter a lot．Hold the camera away from your face，and try to take photos both horizontally and vertically．If not，your face might look bigger than usual．Ideally，the universal selfie angle is 45 degrees above your head．But you should study your face at different angles because finding your best angle requires you having seen all of them．
One problem with selfies is that most have distracting backgrounds．You can always do more to show others your best side．Try to simplify the background by taking selfies outdoors or in spacious areas．Document yourself engaging in interesting activities--hiking with family members，visiting landmarks，or working out with friends．At least，you can make the photo appealing by getting rid of your outstretched arm or a background that's too busy．
You can also download some photo apps that allow you to adjust the lighting and contrast．Some apps offer useful filters，which can change your skin tone and eliminate pimples （粉刺） on your face．

25．To get an image of high quality，you need toC．
A．be under the light source B．be against the main light
C．face the main light source D．have the photo fully exposed
26．How can you find the angle that suits you most？A
A．Study your face at different angles．
B．Hold the camera far enough from you．
C．Keep the camera lower than your face．
D．Place the camera 45 degrees above your head．
27．Which of the following should be avoided when taking selfies？D
A．The use of natural light．B．A landmark as a background．
C．Changes of the skin tone．D．A busy background．
