10、adventure was never far away.We arrived in the summer,just in time to enjoy the midnight sun.All that sunlight was fantastic for Moms vegetable garden.Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off,so she didnt care much about my bedtime.Dad was a Railway Express agent and Mom was

11、his clerk.That left me in a mess.I usually managed to find some trouble to get into.Once I had a little fire going in the dirt basement of hotel.I had tried to light a barrel(桶) of paint but couldnt really get a good fore going.The smoke got pretty bad,though,and when I made my exit,a crowd and the

12、police were there to greet me.The policemen took my matches and drove me home.Mom and Dad were occupied in the garden and Dad told the police to keep me,and they did!I had a tour of the prison before Mom rescued me.I hadnt turned 5 yet. As I entered kindergarten,the serious cold began to set in .Wou

13、ld it surprise you to know that I soon left part of my tongue on a metal handrail at school?As for Leonhard Seppala,famous as a dog sledder(驾雪橇者)，I think I knew him well because I was taken for a ride with his white dog team one Sunday.At the time I didnt realize what a superstar he was,but I do rem

14、ember the ride well.I was wrapped(包裹)heavily and well sheltered from the freezing and blowing weather.In 1950,we moved back to Coeurd Alene,but we got one more Alaskan adventure when Leonhard invited us eight years later by paying a visit to Idaho to attend a gathering of former neighbors of Alaska.

15、21.What can be inferred about the authors family? A.His father was a cruel man. B.His parents didnt love him.C.His parents used to be very busy. D.His mother didnt have any jobs.22.What happened when the author was 4? A.He learned to smoke. B.He was locked in a basement.C.He was arrested by the poli

16、ce. D.He nearly caused a fire accident.23.Which of the following is true?

17、thors purpose of writing the text? A.To look back on his childhood with adventures.B.To describe the extreme weather of Alaska.C.To express how much he misses Leonhard.D.To show off his pride in making trouble. B How men first learned to invent words is unknown;in other words,the origin of language

18、is a mystery.All we really know is that men ,unlike animals ,somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings,actions and things,so that they could communicate with each other,and that later they agreed upon certain signs,called letters,which could be combined(结合)to represent those s

19、ounds and which could be written down.Those sounds ,whether spoken or written in letters,we call words. The power of words,then,lies in their associations(联系)the things they bring up before our minds.Words become filled with meaning for us by experience;and the longer we live,the more certain words

20、recall(回想)to us the glad and sad events of our past and the more we read and learn,the more the number of words that means something to us increases. Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal(吸引)powerfully to our minds and emotions

21、.This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style.Above all,the real poet is a master of words.He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music,and which by their position and association can move men to tears.We should ,therefore,learn to choose our words carefully and

22、use them accurately,or they will make our speech silly and vulgar(粗鄙).25.The origin of language is _A.a saying handed down from the past B.a matter that is hidden or secretC.a question difficult to answer D.a problem not yet solved26.Which of the following is NOT true about words?A.Powerful words ar

23、e closely associated.B.Words mean little to those without experience.C.Certain words mean more to us when we grow older.D.Words in proper combination bring up meaning before our minds.27.The more we read and learn, _ A.the more meaning the words carry B.the more meaningful words we have C.the more w

24、e want to learn words D.the cleverer we become28.“Literary style”in the last paragraph refers to _ A.how writers use words to appeal to our minds and feelings B.how writers tell us the different uses of words C.how great thoughts are generated D.how charming great writers areC When should a child st

25、art learning to read and write? This is one of the questions I am most frequently asked. There is no hard and fast rule, for no two are alike, and it would be wrong to set a time when all should start being taught the intricacies（复杂）of reading letters to form words.If a three-year-old wants to read（

26、or even a two-year-old for that matter）, the child has the right to be given every encouragement. The fact that he or she might later be “bored” when joining a class of non-readers at child school is the teachers affair. It is up to the teacher to see that such a child is given more advanced reading

27、 material.Similarly, the child who still cannot read by the time he goes to junior school at the age of seven should be given every help by teachers and parents alike. They should make certain that he is not dyslexic（having difficulty in reading）.Although parents should be careful not to force young

28、sters aged two to five to learn to read（ if badly done it could put them off reading for life ）, there is no harm in preparing them for simple recognition of letters by labeling various items in their rooms. For instance, tie a nice piece of cardboard to their bed with BED written in neat, big lette

29、rs.Should the young child ask his parents to teach him to read, and if the parents are capable of doing so, such an attraction should not be ignored. But the task should never be made to look like a hard job and the child should never be forced to continue, or his interest should start to flag.29Thi

30、s passage is mainly about _. A. what qualities people teaching children reading should have B. when and how children should be taught reading C. different age groupings of children to be taught reading D. various problems of children who start learning to read30In the writers opinion, children start

31、 learning to read _. A. at different times B. from word games C. by a certain rule D. early and fast31The purpose of labeling items in the room is to _. A. make it more colorful B. help children recognize simple letters C. force children to develop the habit of reading D. teach children to write nea

32、tly32The writer suggests that _. A. children should ask their parents to teach them to read B. children starting to read should ask specialists for help C. children should be taught with patience, care and a sense of humor. D. children should not feel bored if given advanced reading materialDSocieti

33、es all over the world name places in similar ways. Quite often there is no official naming ceremony but places tend to be called names as points of reference by people. Then an organized body steps in and gives the place a name. Frequently it happens that a place has two names：one is named by the pe

34、ople and the other by the government. As in many areas, old habits die_hard, and the place continues to be called by its unofficial name long after the meaning is lost.Many roads and places in Singapore (新加坡) are named in order that the pioneers will be remembered by future generations. Thus we have

35、 names such as Stamford Road and Raffles Place. This is in keeping with traditions in many countriesin both the West and the East.Another way of naming places is naming them after other places. Perhaps they were named to promote friendships between the two places or it could be that the people who u

36、sed to live there were originally from the places that the roads were named after. The mystery is clearer when we see some of the roads named in former British bases. If you step into Selector Airbase you will see Piccadilly Circusobviously named by some homesick Royal Air Force personnel.Some place

37、s were named after the activities that used to go on at those places. Bras Basah Road is an interesting example. “Bras Basah” means “wet rice” in Malay (马来语). Now why would anyone want to name a road “Wet Rice Road”？ The reason is simple. During the pioneering days，wet rice was laid out to dry along

38、 this road.A few roads in Singapore are named by their shapes. There is “Circular Road” for one. Other roads may have part of their names to describe their shapes，like “Paya Lebar Crescent”. This road is called a crescent (月牙) because it begins on the main road，makes a crescent and comes back to joi

39、n the main road again.33We learn from Paragraph 1 that _.Athe government is usually the first to name a placeBa ceremony will be held when a place is namedCmany places tend to have more than one nameDpeople prefer the place names given by the government34What does the underlined phrase “die hard” in

40、 Paragraph 1 probably mean?AChange suddenly. BChange significantly.CDisappear very slowly. DDisappear mysteriously.35What can be inferred from the passage?AYoung Singaporeans have forgotten the pioneers.BSome places in Singapore are named for military purposes.CThe way Singaporeans name their places

41、 is unique.DSome place names in Singapore are the same as in Britain.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选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Eyesight plays a very important role in our daily life.Every waking moment,the eyes are working to see the world around us.Over forty percent of Americans worry about lo
