I'm Lisa. The summer I turned 12, I wished to grow up more quickly.

Summer camp was coming, and I was so worried about my height that I had got into a big argument with my mom.

“But Ill hate it!” I cried. I was certain that everyone would see me as nothing more than “the short girl”

“Lisa, you won't know anything until you get there,” calmed my mom. And I had to agree.

On Monday, my teacher Maggie told us about the climbing course, and I lost hope when I saw the wall. I was afraid of it. I was the last one to try to climb that huge wall. It might have been ten floors high, and I knew that I had no chance to succeed. But I had to, after the other campers finished.

I asked for a “short person's pass,” smiling weakly and walking around the wall.

“You know, Lisa, what the mind can believe, the heart can achieve.” encouraged Maggie.

“I'd really like you to do your best to get over the wall.”

I pretended(假装)to hurt my knee so I could avoid it .

“How's the knee? Does it hurt a lot?” Maggie asked.  She was so kind, which made me feel bad because I didn't like to lie.

Maggie was really patient, showing me how she climbed the wall. And some campers were there cheering for me.

I didn't want to lie any more, and I didn't want to give up again. I could see how much everyone believed in me, and I wanted to show them how much I valued their support, so I kept trying.

And then something amazing happened—I made it! “What the mind can believe, the heart can achieve,” Maggie reminded me.  Yes, believe in myself and I can achieve my goal.

24. When Lisa saw the wall, she felt__________.

A. excited    B. afraid    C. interested    D. angry

25. With Maggie's encouragement, Lisa finally __________ .

A. agreed with her mum     B. forgot about her hurt knee

C. got over the wall      D. got a “short person's pass”

26. From her experience, Lisa learned about__________ ·

A. the way of supporting others   B. the value of showing kindness

C. the benefit of helping each other  D. the importance of believing in herself

C

Picture this: You wake up in the morning. A soft light is turned on in your room. You go into the kitchen. Your favourite breakfast is already cooked, and it's on the table, ready to eat. Now it's time to go to work. It's a rainy day. You live alone, but you find that your umbrella and hat are already by the door. How is all this possible? Welcome to your future life!

Appliances(家电)That Talk

Technology will allow homes in the future to be “smart.” Appliances will communicate with each other—and with you. Your stove, for example, will tell you when your food is cooked and ready to eat. Fridges will suggest what you can cook based on the food you already have. The technology is possible because of little information-storing devices(装置)called RFID chips. People already use them to search pets and farm animals. Future RFID chips will store information about all the food in your kitchen. For example, they will record the   date that you bought the food. Other devices will “read” this information using radio waves. When you need more food, your fridges will tell you to buy it.

Houses that think

Are you tired of the colour of your walls? In a smart home, you won't have to repaint them.   The walls will actually be digital screens, like computer or TV screens. The technology is called OLED. OLEDs are little devices that use electricity to lighten things. You can find the same technology in today's thin TV screens. OLED walls will become clear, like windows, or show colours, like walls. A computer network will connect these walls with everything else in your house. This computer“brain”will control your whole house . It's called“ambient intelligence(环 境智能) . ”It will also change to your preferences . Your house will learn about your likes and dislikes.  It will then use that knowledge to control the environment. For example, it will set the heat in the house to your favorite temperature. It will turn on the shower at the right temperature.  It will also darken the windows at night and lighten them when it's time to wake up.

27. According to the writer, people can have a better life by__________ .

A. living alone      B. buying a big house

C. using smart appliances    D. communicating with others

28. In Paragraph 2, the writer talks about a stove to _________ ·

A. raise  readers' interest in a new smart appliance

B. show readers how smart future appliances will be

C. make readers know what his favourite appliance is

D. tell readers the great importance of smart appliances

29. What can we learn from the passage?

A. The computer is likely to remind you to buy more food.

B. RFID chips are already used today for searching pets and kids.

C. OLED technology will help control and change the temperature.

D. Darkening windows at night is an example of ambient intelligence.

D

We all have some people whom we respect very much, like our family members, our friends or our teachers. Perhaps respect often means different things to different people. There are several aspects(方面)that many people can agree on, though . For example, at its most basic level, respect means being kind and considerate to others.

Respect can take lots of different forms. Don't make fun of others. Put yourself in other people's shoes and think about how they feel. The list goes on. But the Golden Rule we all need to follow is to treat others the same way you'd like to be treated.

Respect is of great importance because it sets the proper stage(舞台)for all our human interactions (交往) .Friendship, love and even basic communication all must start with respect, meaning only with respect can people enjoy a better relationship.

Everyone wants to be respected from the bottom of their heart. To get respect, though, you must also show respect for others. It's always a two-way street. You can't be impolite to others and expect respect in return.

It's easy to show respect. Be polite. Look for the best in people instead of centering on mistakes. Show compassion(同情)for others and try to put their interests before your own. Make others comfortable when they're uneasy. Help out whenever you can. When you pay it forward, unexpected things can happen.

And be respectful to everyone. The world is an unbelievably huge place filled with a great number of people, each of whom is unique(独特的)and special. And it is necessarily true that you need to show your respect to everyone!

Be careful, though. Not everyone will respect you all the time. In fact, you'll probably see examples of impolite behaviour each and every day. How you respond to impolite behaviour, though, can make a great difference. If you choose to respond to impolite behaviour by acting rudely yourself, you'll get nothing. You're only continuing the way of impolite behaviour and setting a bad example. So, it is totally wrong. Instead, act respectfully and set a good example.

Always acting respectfully might help others learn from your example!

30. According to the Golden Rule, __________.

A. you'd better keep walking in others’ shoes

B. you should pay attention to your own feeling

C. the way you play jokes on other people matters

D. the way you want to be treated depends on yourself

31. What does Paragraph 5 mainly tell us?

A. Where to find respect.     B. Why to avoid mistakes.

C. When to help others out.     D. How to show respect for others.

32. The words “ respond to” in Paragraph 7 probably mean “__________”.

A. deal with   B. forget about  C. try out   D. lead to

33. According to the last paragraph, what should we do if someone is impolite to us?

A. Show him/her true respect.    B. Leave him/her alone.

C. Be kind to him/her sometimes.   D. Treat him/her the same way.

四、阅读表达(34-36题，每题2分，37题4分，共10分)

阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。

The World Health Organization says air pollution kills seven million people around the world each year. Even if polluted air does not kill us, it can make us very sick.

However, breathing dirty air may do more than hurt your body. It can also affect (影响)your brain and your ability to think .

A new study shows that air pollution can cause a“huge”reduction in our intelligence (智商) .The researchers reported that long-term exposure(暴露)to air pollution can affect a person's mental(智力的)abilities in two areas: language and math . Xi Chen, the researcher of the Yale School of Public Health led the study. He and his team found that breathing polluted air can reduce a person's education level by about one year.

Chen said that the effect generally is worse for those over 64 years of age, for men and for those with little or no education. “The older persons—they are more affected. And we find, quite interestingly men are more affected than women. And people working outdoors are more affected than people working indoors.”

The researchers noted that the influence of pollution on language ability is even more serious as people age, especially among men and the less educated. Why are a person's language skills more affected than math? There's an important part in our brain: white matter. White matter is more connected with a person's language skills. Studies have shown that air pollution has a great influence on the white matter in the brain.

Chen said that air pollution did affect the math skills just not as much as their language skills.

34. How many people are killed by air pollution each year?

________________________________________________________________________________

35. In what areas can air pollution affect a person's mental abilities?

________________________________________________________________________________

36. How are a person's language skills affected by air pollution?

37. What do you think of air pollution? What's your advice on stopping air pollution?
