My son was in the 4th grade last year, and he had a teacher called Miss Green. I believe that when he is an adult he will surely look back on her as the best teacher he has ever had.My son has attention deficit disorder(注意力缺损症) that makes it a little more difficult for him to learn. She was able to change her teaching methods for him so that he could keep up with the rest of the class. As a result, he got straight on many subjects. She regarded her class as a family and they even had their own class song. She would often have them sing it to encourage them and develop a team spirit for them. When she saw that they were no longer listening carefully to what she was teaching, she would have them close their textbooks, stand up all around the room and throw around a small football. This helped them clear their minds and then focus on the lesson again. Besides, she was quick to reply to any phone calls or emails from us and got rid of our worries about children quickly.When my son went to the 5th grade this year, we happened to pass her classroom. When she saw my son, she smiled, and she came out and hugged him. She generally loves all of the children in her classroom and that love really shows. I can only pray that my son will continue to get teachers just like her for the rest of his school years.16.

Miss Green was the best teacher at the schoolC. all the students in the school liked Miss GreenD. the writers son had many teachers like Miss Green19. In the passage, the writer mainly tells us _.A. what his son studied at school B. his son once had a good teacherC. how to be a good and popular teacher D. a teacher who liked playing with studentsBThere once was a little boy who wanted to meet the king. He set off, walking towards the kings castle. After many years of walking, the kings castle came into his view. However, as the boy drew closer to the outside of the castle, the guards noticed him.“Get out of here!” ordered the guards.Well, the little boy didnt have to be told twice. He turnedand ran. All he wanted to do was to tell the king wonderful things, and see all the beautiful things in the kings house. But he couldnt even get near the castle! The boy finally stopped running, sat down and cried.A young man happened to be coming down the path at the very moment. He saw the little boy and stopped. “Whats wrong, young man?” he asked.“Sir, I walked and walked just to see the king. But these guards made me scared. I wanted to tell the king how lovely everything is and just tell the king that I just wanted to see him!”The man looked at the little boy thoughtfully. “Look, why dont you try again. Ill come with you this time.”The little boy got up and took the mans hand. The kings guards spotted them.“Look, mister, we dont have to do thisI dont want you to get hurt. We can just turn around now.”The man held the little boys hand and went on. The boy really thought the man might be crazy until he looked back up at the guards. They were all smiling now. The little boy was amazed.“Who are you?” asked the little boy in astonishment.“Why, Im the kings son. You can enter the castle and be with the king.” Said the man.The little boy broke into a huge smile.20. Why did the boy want to see the king?A. To get some help from the king.B. To invite the king to visit his beautiful village.C. To share wonderful things with the king.D. To ask the king to play with him.21. What does the underlined sentence in the paragraph mean?A. The little boy didnt understand the guards words at first. B. The guards repeated the words to the boy. C. The little boy understood the guards words immediately. D. The little boy had been to the castle twice.22. According to the passage, the man is .A. kind B. ambitious C. stupid D. meanCAs computers become all the more popular in China, Chinese people are increasingly depending on computer keyboards to input Chinese characters. But if they use the computer too much, they may end up forgetting the exact strokes (笔画) of each Chinese character when writing on paper. Experts suggest people, especially students, write by hand more.Do you write by hand more or type more? In Beijing, students start using a computer as early as primary school. And computer dependence is more widely spread among university students. Almost all their assignment and essays are typed on a computer.All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer.Its faster and easier to correct if using a computer. And thats why computers are being applied more and more often to modern education. But when people are taking stock in computers increasingly, problems appear.“When Im writing with a pen, I find I often cant remember how to write a character, though I feel Im familiar with it.”“Im not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper.”Many students dont feel this is something to worry about. Now that its more convenient and efficient to write on a computer, why bother to handwrite?Many educators think differently. Shi Liwei, headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital said, “ Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic (审美的) value. But those characters typed with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value. All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost. And handwriting contains the writers emotion. Through ones handwriting, people can get to know ones thinking and personality. Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them.”To encourage students to handwrite more, many primary schools in Beijing have made writing classes compulsory（必修的）and in universities, some professors are asking students to turn in their homework and essays written by hand.23. The underlined expression “taking stock in” in paragraph 4 probably means_.A. getting bored with B. getting dependent onC. becoming crazy about D. getting curious about24. The students interviewed prefer to write using a computer mainly because_.A. computers have become a trend and fashion in China B. they are usually asked to e-mail their homework and essaysC. they find it not easy to remember how to write a characterD. they can correct the mistakes they make quickly and conveniently25. Which of the following statement is NOT true of the advantage of handwriting?A. Handwriting contains the writers emotions.B. Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic value.C. Handwriting can impress people well and build ones self-confidence.D. The writers thinking and personality are shown in his or her handwriting.26. Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?A. To Type or to Handwrite. B. The Importance of Handwriting and Typing.C. Writing by Computer Will Replace Writing by Hand.D. Practical and Aesthetic Value of Chinese Characters.DThe influence of America is increasing in my country. Spanish people drink Coca Cola, wear blue jeans, watch Hollywood movies, listen to American music, and eat fast food, and they do these things every day.I think that American movies are a good way to spread American culture because people are often influenced by what they see in the movies. Most of the programs and documentaries (纪录片) we watch on TV are from America, and most of the movies we go to see are made in Hollywood. In the last few years, the government has tried to protect the Spanish movies. Now, in our cinemas, at least twenty percent of the movies which are shown must be from Spain or from other countries in Europe. American culture is a part of Spanish life now. Its certain that many things from America are as much a part of peoples lives as Spanish things. For example, Coca Cola is as familiar to everybody as any typical Spanish product. Ive known about Coca Cola for my whole life. However, its different with Western fast food. For example, I dont think McDonalds is as successful in Spain as it is in other countries. In my opinion, one of the reasons may be the lifestyle of the Spanish people. The Spanish people normally eat at home. On the other hand, maybe McDonalds hamburgers will eventually replace the famous Spanish tapas. Its true that in every city in Spain you can find a McDonalds, and it is more popular among the Spanish children than among the adults. In any case, its obvious that American culture is becoming more and more a part of our lives every day. 27 From the first paragraph we can know that _.A. the influence of America on Spain can be found everywhereB. most Spanish people dont like to listen to their own musicC. fast food spreads from Spain to the United StatesD. some Spanish actors go to America to improve their acting skills 28. What plays an important part in the spreading of American culture in Spain?A. American novels. B. Hollywood movies. C. McDonalds. D. American music.29.Why did the government set some rules for the films shown in Spain?A. To protect foreign culture in Spain. B. To earn more money from Spanish films.C. To limit the number of foreign movies. D. To unite the European Community.30. What do you think Spanish tapas might be?A. The name of a drink. B. The name of a restaurant.C. A clothing brand. D. A certain kind of food.第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳答案。选项中有两项为多余选项。Just be yourselfHow to become one with yourselfMany of us live our lives but only a few of us have found our true inner self.
