She told the children on the first day that she loved them all the same. But that was a lie. There in the front row was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard. He didnt play well with the other children and he always needed a bath. She did not like him. Then Mrs. Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death of his mother. Mrs. Thompson was ashamed of herself. She felt even worse when, like all her other students, Teddy brought her a Christmas present too. It was his mothers perfume(香水)。 Teddy said, “Mrs. Thompson, today you smell just like my Mom used to. After the children left she cried for at least an hour. On that very day, she stopped teaching reading, writing and math. Instead, she began to teach children. Mrs. Thompson paid particular attention to Teddy. The boys mind seemed to come alive. The more she encouraged him, the faster he improved. By the end of the sixth grade, Teddy had become one of the smartest children in the class. Six years went by before she got a note from Teddy. He wrote that he had finished high school, third in his class, and she was still the best teacher he ever had in his whole life. He went to college. Mrs. Thompson got two more letters from him with the last one signed: Theodore F. Stoddard, M. D.(医学博士). The story doesnt end there. On his wedding day, Dr. Stoddard whispered in Mrs. Thompsons ear, “Thank you, Mrs. Thompson, for believing in me. You made me feel important and showed me that I could make a difference. Mrs. Thompson, with tears in her eyes, whispered back, “Teddy, you have it all wrong. You were the one who taught me that I could make a difference. I didnt know how to teach until I met you.36. What did Mrs. Thompson do on the first day of school? A. She made Teddy feel ashamed. B. She asked the children to play with Teddy. C. She changed Teddy's seat to the front row. D. She told the class something untrue about herself.37. What did Mrs. Thompson find out about Teddy? A. He often told lies. B. He was good at math. C. He needed motherly care. D. He enjoyed playing with others.38. In what way did Mrs. Thompson change? A. She taught fewer school subjects. B. She became stricter with her students. C. She no longer liked her job as a teacher. D.

Without enough blood, the brain lives for only three to five minutes. More often the doctors cant fix the damageSometimes they are afraid to try something to help because it is dangerous to work on the brain. The doctors might make the person worse if he operates on the brain. DrRobert White, a famous professor and doctor, thinks he knows a way to help. He thinks doctors should make the brain very cold. If it is very cold, the brain can live without blood for 30 minutes. This gives the doctor a longer time to do something for the brainDrWhite tried his idea on 13 monkeys. First he taught them to do different jobs, then he operated on them. He made the monkeys blood go through a machine. The machine cooled the blood. Then the machine sent the blood back to the monkeys brains. When the brains temperature was 10 , DrWhite stopped the blood to the brain. After 30 minutes he turned the blood back on. He warmed the blood again. After their operations the monkeys were like they had been before. They were healthy and busy. Each one could still do the jobs the doctor had taught them40. The biggest difficulty in operating on the damaged brain is that_ Athe time is too short for doctorsBthe patients are often too nervousCthe damage is extremely hard to fixDthe blood-cooling machine might break down41. The brain operation was made possible mainly by_ Ataking the blood out of the brain Btrying the operation on monkeys firstChaving the blood go through a machine Dlowering the brains temperature42. With Dr. Whites new idea, the operation on the damaged brain_ Acan last as long as 30 minutes Bcan keep the brains blood warmCcan keep the patients brain healthy Dcan help monkeys do different jobs43. What is the right order of the steps in the operation?asend the cooled blood back to the brain bstop the blood to the brainchave the blood cooled down doperate on the brainAa,b,c,d Bc,a,b,d Cc,b,d,a Db,c,d,aCKites have been around for a long time.The Chinese invented kites over years ago. A determined man named Mo Zi had an idea as he watched hawks(鹰) fly. He spent three years making a wooden hawk“kite. It broke after one flight! Mo Zi and his Chinese friends did not give up. Soon they perfected the art of creating kites.Kites became part of many Chinese festivals. Pictures of kites were also on vases and in paintings. But kites were meant to fly in places other than China! Marco Polo visited China in the 13th century and brought kites back to Europe with him. Europeans loved them, and the art of kiting“took off!Many kites have stories behind them. One Chinese novel, called Journey to the West, was written around 1400 AD. In the story, a priest(僧侣) traveled with three students. One student was a monkey. The second student was a man with pig ears. The third student was a former river monster. These characters often appear on Chinese kites. Another splendid Chinese kite is the dragon kite. A dragon kite is made of many round discs strung together. Often the dragon is bright red, with fat horns and white teeth. The dragon is the king of beasts in Chinese myths. It represents goodness, even though it looks scary. Two kinds of kites have pictures of birds on them. One kite is called the phoenix(凤凰) bird kite. The phoenix bird symbolizes peace. Another kite shows the red-headed crane. The crane represents happiness, good fortune, and a long life.Kites come in all shapes and sizes. Flat or bowed kites have a simple shape, such as a diamond or a rectangle(长方形). Delta(三角形) kites are triangular. Rokkaku kites are six sided and often bear a striking image. Sometimes these kites“flighteach other until one kite drops from the sky. The other kite then wins the“battle.44. Who introduced Chinese kites to Europe? A. A foreigner from Europe. B.Three students in Journey to the West. C.The priest in Journey to the West. D.A Chinese artist.45. Which of the following statements is TRUE? A.The novel Journey to the West mainly talks about the art of kiting. B.The characters in the novel Journey to the West are often painted on kites. C.The dragon kite represents happiness, good fortune and a long life. D.A phoenix bird is a main character in the novel Journey to the West.46. Which statement expresses an opinion rather than a fact? A.Kites became part of many Chinese festivals. B.There are many different kinds of kites. C.The dragon kite is the most splendid Chinese kite. D.Kites were invented years ago.47. Which kind of kite is NOT used to fight“battlesin the air? A.Flat.B.Delta.C.Dragon.D.Rokkaku.DHow much do you want to pay for a CD by your favorite singer Jay Chou? Five Yuan for a pirated(盗版的) one, or more for a real one? Wang Ye, 14, said she would like the real one although the pirated one is cheaper. A real one is worth keeping for years. said the girl from No.1 middle school in Wu Han, Anhui. “Real CDs always sound better to me.What can we do? People want to do more to help those like Wang to get real CDs.This week the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry asked many countries to act against piracy(盗版行为).In many places in China, the government is checking audio and video products. Pirated ones are broken into pieces.Piracy is in your daily life. Dont believe it? A study by 21st Century Teens found that more than 75 percent of juniors had listened to pirated music. They say this is because pirated products are usually much cheaper than the real ones.Why are real CDs so expensive? When a music company makes music, it needs to pay the song writers and singers. It costs a lot of money! This makes the price of the CDs go up. Piracy like stealing. People who make pirated copies of CDs take away the writers and singers work without paying them. They even dont ask them if they can.So next time youd better keep your eyes brightened when you see cheap CDs. Remember youre helping someone to do something wrong if you buy them.How do you know whats real.Already made up your mind to buy real ones? Well, you should get to know what real CDs look like. A real CD has the name and trademark(商标) of the music company on the cover. The companys address, telephone number and fax number are on it.If you open the CD box you'll see the singer's name and the album title. Most important of all, a real CD has a number from the IFPI on it.But people who make pirated CDs only need the real CD and disks to copy them. Thats why some CDs are only five Yuan, but some m
