I had just delivered a memorized speech，and I was about to learn how the judges decided my performance．The audience leaned forward and a period of silence fell across the room．I felt the drum rolled in my heart．
The third-place winner was announced．The name was not mine．Then the second-place winner，still not me．At last，the moment of truth came．I was about to either enjoy the warmth of victory or regret the months' preparation．My heart felt closer to the latter．
Losing is a part of life，and I have dealt with it on more than one occasion．However，it was an indescribable feeling to drive a 200-mile round trip get up very early on a freezing Saturday morning，and yet still finish fourth out of four competitors in my group．After Lincoln lost the 1858 Illinois Senate race，he said，"I felt like the 12-year-old boy who kicked his toe．I was too big to cry and it hurt too bad to laugh．" Oh yeah，I could relate．
I had spent many hours in front of a computer and in libraries doing research for the Lincoln Bicentennial Speech Contest．After not placing in the first year of the contest，I really wanted to compete again．Lincoln had many failures，but he never allowed them to defeat his spirit or ambition，so I was not going to give upon a second contest!I reworked my speech for the following year，but again I did not place．
I couldn't accept the fact that I failed twice in something that I had worked so hard on，until I thought about my hero．Never mind the lost prize money and praise．Through learning stories about Lincoln，I discovered that I can fail successfully．

The United States has about 475，000 school buses --all painted yellow. Each day they carry more than 25，000，000 children, half of all schoolchildren in the country. But these buses, on average, use four liters of diesel （柴油） fuel to travel less than sixteen kilometers. When the school year began last fall, diesel averaged 55 cents a liter nationally. The price nearly doubled, to a dollar and 8 cents, by the end of school in June.
Bob Riley speaks for the American School Bus Council. He says fuel prices for schools are not much lower than others have to pay. As a result, schools are looking for ways to reduce transportation costs. Bus routes are being redrawn or, in some cases, canceled. Some areas are buying buses that use natural gas or other alternative fuels. Other steps include fewer field trips and less travel by sports teams. And some school districts may end any bus service not required by law.
Studies show that school buses are the safest form of transportation to and from school. The American School Bus Council says cuts in bus service are bad for children and possibly the environment. It says removing buses from the road will mean an increase in other vehicles transporting students. Spokesman Bob Riley says another concern is that reducing bus services might reduce attendance.
But it could also get more children to walk or bicycle to school. And that would surely make people happy at the National Center for Safe Routes to School. More kids walking or biking safely to school is the aim of a three-year-old federal program, part of an international movement. The goal is to increase physical activity and reduce air pollution. The United States will celebrate Walk to School Day on October eighth this year. But for some students, high fuel prices could make every day a walk-to-school day.
8. What does this passage mainly tell us？ ______
A. High fuel prices' influences on school buses.
B. New measures to transport school students.
C. The safest form of student transportation.
D. The origin of Walk to School Day.
9. What can we learn from Paragraph 3？ ______
A. Cuts in bus service will have negative results.
B. The US government is encouraging cuts in bus services.
C. The US schools are searching for the safest transportation means.
D. Reducing bus service will do a lot of good to the environment.
10. In order to cut down transportation cost, many schools take the following measures EXCEPT ______ .
A. changing some bus routes
B. stopping some bus routes
C. asking parents to drive children to and from school
D. using other types of fuels
11. The National Center for Safe Routes to School encourages more children to walk or bike to school in order to ______ .
A. save more fuels and diesel for the country
B. keep the children safe on their way to school
C. make the children live a simple life
D. keep the children healthy and the environment clean
D
Every year,companies like GoPro manage to pack more and more functions into smaller and smaller action cameras that are less noticeable to wear.But a team of researchers from the University of Washington have managed to build a live-streaming wireless camera that's so small that even an insect can wear it.It's not quite small and light enough to be held to a fly,but at around 250 milligrams,the camera was successfully carried by a beetle.
Although the camera inside a modern smartphone is certainly tiny,it's too large and heavy for an insect to carry once the batteries are added.Capturing million of pixels（像素）with every shot requires a lot of image processing,which in turn requires a lot of power.Taking an alternate route,the researchers copied nature's approach to how flies see the world.Their large compound eyes can not only detect motion across a wide field of view（it's why they're so difficult to hit） but also feature a small,high-resolution（分辨率）region that can focus on their targets which helps reduce the load on their tiny brains.
Given its size and low-power approach,the camera's streaming abilities are similarly limited,with a Bluetooth connection that maxes out at a distance of roughly 120 meters,requiring a remote operator to be fairly close to the camera at all times.However,battery life is surprisingly decent.The camera can run for up to two hours,but to extend that,the researchers included an accelerometer so that it's only capturing and broadcasting images whenever the beetle is moving.That can increase the camera's battery life to over six hours.
The researchers acknowledge that their design certainly raises some privacy concerns,given how easy it is for insects to find their way into your home.But the camera could provide entomologists（昆虫学者）with new insights into how insects cross their environment,respond to threats in the wild,and even provide a closer look at their social structures.
12. What is the feature of the new camera？ ______
A. It's small-size and low-weight.
B. It takes much clearer pictures.
C. It can perform tasks in the open air.
D. It protects beetles from their enemies.
13. What do the researchers learn from flies for the new camera？ ______
A. How to enlarge its vision.
B. How to capture the target.
C. How to save power of its battery.
D. How to make sharp turns during flying.
14. What can best replace the underlined word "decent" in Paragraph 3？ ______
A. casual B. adequate C. beneficial D. unsatisfactory
15. What's the author's attitude to the design of the new camera？ ______
A. Critical. B. Doubtful. C. Favorable. D. Objective.

Move towards nature when feeling down.Miracles do happen if you try.According to studies，walking among trees makes us relaxed. （1） ______ There's plenty of research showing the link between being in nature and being happy，but most of the research has focused on adults.
（ 2） ______ Explaining the motivation behind the study，researchers note that with environmental issues such as global warming，more studies are focusing on the relationships between humans and nature to find solutions to these problems，and the future of the planet lies in the hands of children and their actions.However，few studies focus on this aspect.
For the study，researchers worked with 206 children between the ages of 5 and 15.To measure how connected they were to nature，the kids were asked how much they enjoy activities like seeing wildflowers and wild animals，hearing sounds of nature and touching animals and plants. （3） ______ They also found that the more concerned children were about the environment and nature，the more likely they were to be happy.

Her name was Mrs Thompson.And as she stood in front of the 5th grade class on the very first day she looked at her students and said that she loved them all the same.But that was impossible because there in the front row was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard.Mrs Thompson had watched Teddy the year before and noticed that he didn't play well with the other children,that his clothes were messy and that he constantly needed a bath.She paid no attention to Teddy.
However,when she read his file,she was in surprise.Teddy's first grade teacher wrote,"Teddy is a bright child with a ready laugh.He does his work neatly and has good manners...he is the joy to be around. "His second grade teacher wrote,"Teddy is an excellent student,well liked by his classmates.But he is troubled because his mother has a deadly illness and life at home must be a struggle. " His third grade teacher wrote,"His mother's death has been hard on him.He tried to do his best but his father doesn't show much interest. " Teddy's fourth grade teacher wrote, " Teddy is withdrawn and doesn't show much interest in school.He doesn't have many friends and sometimes sleeps in class."

本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍了关于霍尔克集团招聘数据分析管培生的具体要求，工资待遇及联系方式等。
一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。
　　阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。
二、看题干，带着问题读文章。
　　首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。
　　在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。
四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。
　　猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。

4~7.【答案】C、D、B、A
【解析】（1）C．推理判断题．根据文章第一段末尾句内容"I felt the drum rolled in my heart．（我感觉到鼓在我心里滚来滚去．）"可知，作者很紧张．A．Excited激动的，B．Relaxed放松的，C．Nervous紧张的，D．Confident自信的．C项符合语境．故选C．
（2）D．细节理解题．根据文章第三段内容"However，it was an indescribable feeling to drive a 200-mile round trip get up very early on a freezing Saturday morning，and yet still finish fourth out of four competitors in my group．（然而，在一个寒冷的周六早上很早起床，驾车往返200英里，却在我们组的四名选手中名列第四，这是一种难以言表的感觉．）"可知，作者在本组选手中位列末尾名次．选项D"He was bottom of his group．（他是他那组的最后一名．）"与原文信息表达一致．故选D．
（3）B．细节理解题．根据文章第四段内容"Lincoln had many failures，but he never allowed them to defeat his spirit or ambition，so I was not going to give upon a second contest!（林肯有过很多失败，但是他从来没有让失败打败他的精神和雄心，所以我不打算在第二次比赛中放弃!）"可知，是林肯的精神鼓舞了作者再次参加比赛．故选B．
（4）A．标题归纳题．通过阅读可知，文章为记叙文，结构为分总结构，主要讲述了作者认真准备演讲比赛后还是输掉了比赛，十分伤心，他用林肯的话和经历来鼓励自己正确面对生活中的失败，在文章末尾点明文章主旨"Through learning stories about Lincoln，I discovered that I can fail successfully．（通过学习林肯的故事，我发现我也可以成功地失败．）"选项A"Learn to fail successfully（学会成功地失败）"贴合主旨要义，可作最佳标题．故选A．
这是一篇记叙文．文章主要讲述了作者认真准备演讲比赛后还是输掉了比赛，十分伤心，他用林肯的话和经历来鼓励自己正确面对生活中的失败：学会成功地失败．
了解文章的主要论题的关键是找到全文的主旨句．对于记叙文来说，篇章结构一般为总分总结构或分总结构，因此，主旨句有时在首段，但也有主旨句出现在末尾的时候．出现在末尾的主旨句是对文章主题的升华，由此判断标题会更加准确．

8~11.【答案】A、A、C、D
【解析】（1）A .主旨大意题。根据第一段中的The price nearly doubled, to a dollar and 8 cents, by the end of school in June.            到6月份放学时，价格几乎翻了一番，达到1美元8美分。第二段As a result, schools are looking for ways to reduce transportation costs.          因此，学校正在寻找降低交通成本的方法。由此可判断本文主要讲的是不断增长的油价，让很多的地方的校车都在减少，引起了一系列的影响和变化。故选A.
（2）A. 推理判断题。根据第三段的第二句"The American School Bus Council says cuts in bus service are bad for children and possibly the environment."可知，这个美国校车委员会表示校车服务的减少对儿童以及环境都是有坏处的。由此可见，校车服务的减少会带来消极的结果。结合选项可知，故选A，
（3）C .细节理解题。由第二段的第四句"Bus routes are being redrawn or, in some cases, canceled."和第五句"Some areas are buying buses that use natural gas or other alternative fuels."可知，校车路线被再次规划，或者在某些情况下，被取消。一些地区将购买使用天然气或者其他替代燃料的公交车。由此可见，为了减少交通成本，很多学校采取了改变一些校车路线，取消一些校车路线，或者使用其他燃料。结合选项可知，选项C表达的是"要求父母开车送孩子上下学"，这并未提及。故选C。
（4）D. 细节理解题。由最后一段的第四句"The goal is to increase physical activity and reduce air pollution."可知，这个目的是为了提高体能活动并且减少空气污染。由此可见，国家安全上学路线中心鼓励更多的孩子走路或者骑车去上学是为了保持孩子们的健康和干净的环境。结合选项可知答案选D.
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述校车由于柴油价格的增长被做调整甚至取消，这将可能对学生不利，但是也可能让跟多的学生选择走路或者骑车上学。
考查社会文化类阅读理解。做题时要通读全文，把握大意，然后结合题干及选项做出正确的选择。

12~15.【答案】A、A、A、B
【解析】（1）A.细节理解题。根据第一段"But a team of researchers from the University of Washington have managed to build a live-streaming wireless camera that's so small that even an insect can wear it." （但华盛顿大学的一组研究人员已经成功制造出了一种无线实时摄像装置，它非常小，连昆虫都可以戴上它。） 可知，这种新摄像头既小又轻。故选A项。
（2）A.细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句"Their large compound eyes can not only detect motion across a wide field of view （ it's whythey're so difcult to hit ） but also feature a small,high-resolution （分辨率） region that can focus on their targets,which helpsreduce the load on their tiny brains."（它们的大复眼不仅可以在广阔的视野中检测运动（这就是为什么它们很难被击中），而且还具有一个小的、高分辨率的区域，可以聚焦在它们的目标上，这有助于减少它们微小的大脑的负荷。）可知，研究人员为摄像机从苍蝇身上学习到的是如何扩大摄像机的视野。故选A项。
（3）A.词句猜测题。根据第三段最后一句"The camera can run for up to two hours,but to extend that,the researchers indluded an accelerometer so that it's only capturing and broadcasting images whenever the beetle is moving That can increase the camera'sbattery life to over six hours." （这种相机可以运行两个小时，但为了延长时间，研究人员还安装了一个加速计，这样它就只在甲虫移动的时候捕捉和播放图像，这样相机的电池寿命就可以延长到六个小时以上。） 可知，这种电池只是暂时的，研究人员还在改进中，而A项casual临时的，非正式的，符合题意。A.casual随意的；B.adequate充足的；C.beneficial有益的；D.unsatisfactory不满意的。故选A项。
