Homeschooling
What do most people remember about their school days? Playing with classmates during breaks, eating food in the dining hall, or going to the headmaster’s office, perhaps. But 850,000 teenagers in the United States don’t experience these things, because they are homeschooled. They don’t go to a regular school.
Their parents teach them. Their education takes place at home and in the community. What is it like to be homeschooled? Read Dylan’s blog about his homeschooling experience.
MONDAY, July 10
I’m Dylan and I’m 14 years old. This is my third year of being homeschooled by my mom, a university professor (教授). A lot of people ask me how I feel about it. They ask, “Do you miss being in school with other kids?”
Well, my daily life is different from the daily lives of millions of children who go to regular schools, but I’m enjoying my time with my mom. I’m learning things at my own pace. We can go fast or slow, depending on the subject. These days, I’m reading books that most kids only read when they get to college. I’m studying French, German, art, and the histories of the world—things I’m very interested in.
A lot of kids think I never get to communicate with other kids, but that’s not true. I get together with the other homeschooled kids during our weekly sports games and at social events. I don’t just study at home. My mom takes me to all kinds of field trips—to museums, theaters, libraries, and lots of other cool places. And college? I’m not worried about it. I know I’m preparing myself well for it.
1. Who teaches homeschooled children according to the text?
A. School headmasters. B. Their friends.
C. University professors. D. Their parents.
2. What does the underlined word “pace” probably mean?
A. Cost. B. Distance. C. Risk. D. Speed.
3. How can homeschooled kids communicate with other kids?
A. Through home meetings. B. Through college festival.
C. Through social events. D. Through school lessons.
4. What does Dylan think of homeschooling?
A. He thinks it costs too much. B. He likes traditional school better.
C. He enjoys homeschooling. D. He thinks it makes kids lonely.

Last year, I started doing some volunteer work for a charity (慈善机构) in my town that helps disabled children. I found out that the charity needed to buy some new wheelchairs, but that they really didn’t have the money. So, I started to think about what I could do to raise money.
When I mentioned this to my friends, they said, “Well, why don’t you run the London Marathon?!” They laughed and so did I—we all know that I’ve never done any running before. But later, I started to think that it might not be a bad idea.
I talked to the charity people and they agreed to put my name forward. I bought some gear (装备) and started running. After a month or so, I found I could do almost five kilometers. The problem, though, was that the marathon is 42 kilometers. The race was only five months away. I practiced as hard as I could—I had to run and finish the race, because if I did, I would raise enough money to buy four new wheelchairs.
Well, when the big day came, I was not at all sure that I was ready. During my training, I’d managed to run 25 kilometers, but 42? Could I do it?
Luckily, it wasn’t a hot day and the people running with me helped me a lot. However, after about 34 kilometers, I was really tired and I nearly stopped, but the people watching cheered me on and I managed to struggle (挣扎) on to the finish line. My time was five hours and ten minutes.
It was hard, but I finally did the marathon and got the wheelchairs for the charity.

7. How long did the writer practice before the London Marathon?
A. About a month. B. About three months.
C. About six months. D. About nine months.
8. How might the writer feel after the race?
A. Afraid. B. Proud. C. Sad. D. Surprised.

Should you see a doctor every time you’re sick? Of course not! Doctors don’t have a cure (疗法) for everything. In fact, there are many simple illnesses that are difficult for doctors to cure. Sometimes people use different “home remedies (治疗法)” for them.
The cold virus (病毒) is one example. People in many countries don’t take medicine for a cold. They make a big pot of hot chicken soup instead. They eat the soup and rest. Many people believe that chicken soup is a natural and healthy cure for a cold. And in fact it really helps: drinking a lot of water is good when you have a cold. Also, the hot soup helps you breathe better and helps your throat.
And in China, it’s common to cure a headache with an egg. You boil the egg, take off the shell and rub (揉) the egg on your face, head and neck until the egg becomes cool. Some people think this helps you sleep better, too. Rubbing with the egg relaxes you. Often headaches are because of stress, so relaxing is a great idea.
What about a fever? There are a lot of different home remedies, but an interesting home remedy uses vinegar (醋). In Russia, people rub it into the skin. Vinegar makes your skin feel cooler, and it can help lower your body temperature a little.
One of the world’s oldest home remedies is tea. You can use herbal (草药) teas for all kinds of simple stomachaches and sore throats. Some popular ingredients in home remedy teas make a sore throat feel better and help you relax.
9. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. European doctors B. Simple illnesses. C. Different people. D. Asian countries.
10. What do many people think is a natural cure for a cold?
A. Drinking hot chicken soup. B. Eating a cool egg.
C. Rubbing vinegar into the skin D. Drinking herbal teas
11. When do Chinese rub with an egg?
A. When they have a fever. B. When they have a headache.
C. When they have a cold. D. When they have a sore throat.
12. Which of the following best shows the structure of the text? (P = Paragraph)
A. B. C. D.
【答案】9. B 10. A 11. B 12. D
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了一些对于简单的疾病的家庭疗法。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文中“In fact, there are many simple illnesses that are difficult for doctors to cure.”可知，有许多简单的疾病医生很难治愈，故后句应指人们会使用不同的“家庭疗法”治疗它们，所以them应指代“simple illnesses”，故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“They make a big pot of hot chicken soup instead. They eat the soup and rest. Many people believe that chicken soup is a natural and healthy cure for a cold.”可知，许多人认为喝热鸡汤是治疗感冒的天然方法，故选A。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“And in China, it’s common to cure a headache with an egg…Rubbing with the egg relaxes you.”可知，当人们头痛时，它们会把鸡蛋在脸上、头上和脖子上揉，直到鸡蛋变凉，故选B。
【12题详解】
篇章结构题。第一段总的说人们会使用一些家庭疗法治疗简单疾病，第二段到第五段分别介绍了四种家庭疗法，所以全文是总分结构，故选D。
D
Is your mobile phone book full of phone numbers of people you don’t really want to talk to? Do you go out with people from work or university more often than with your real friends? Do you say yes to invitations because you think you should, not because you want to? If you answered yes to at least two of these questions, then perhaps it’s time to “edit (编辑) your friends”.
Nowadays people spend a lot of time with workmates or classmates. The result is that we don’t have enough time to see our real, close friends. As our lives get busier, it becomes more important to spend the little free time with people we really want to see, people we love and who really love us.
Who are the friends you need to edit? A few years ago, I read a book about how to get rid of (摆脱) unnecessary things. It said you should ask yourself: Is it useful? Do I really like it? Do I feel better every time I look at it? If the answer is not to any one of those questions, you should throw it away. Maybe we should ask similar questions about our friends.
What kind of friends will you probably need to edit? Sometimes it’s an old friend who you used to have a lot in common with, but now you have very little or nothing to say to. Or it might be a new friend who you get on quite well with, but who is taking up too much of your time. Next time one of these people calls you and suggests a meeting, think, “Do I really want to see this person?” and if the answer is no, say no, and make an excuse. That way you’ll have more time to spend with your real friends.
13. Why does the writer list three questions at the beginning of the text?
A. To show different opinions. B. To lead into the topic.
C. To do scientific research. D. To describe his friends.
14. What questions should you ask yourself when deciding which friends to edit?
A. How smart are these friends? B. Do I really like spending time with them?
C. Are they new or old friends? D. Will they make us look good in public?
15. What is the purpose of “editing your friends”?
A. To increase the number of friends in your social circle.
B. To get much closer to your workmates and classmates.
C. To focus on spending quality time with real friends.
D. To delete all the numbers in your telephone book.
【答案】13. B 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要主要提出了两个问题，人们需要“编辑”什么样的朋友以及人们为什么需要“编辑”朋友。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据“If you answered yes to at least two of these questions, then perhaps it’s time to ‘edit your friends’.”可知文章开篇三个问题是为了引出主题“编辑朋友”。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Next time one of these people calls you and suggests a meeting, think, ‘Do I really want to see this person?’ and if the answer is no, say no, and make an excuse.”可知决定编辑朋友的时候可以问是否想要看到这个朋友，由此推出可以问“我真的喜欢和他们在一起吗？”这类问题。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据“That way you’ll have more time to spend with your real friends.”及全文内容可推断“编辑你的朋友”是为了专注于与真正的朋友共度美好时光。故选C。

句意：科学家们发明了无人驾驶汽车，这种汽车依靠电力而不是汽油。根据“run on electricity instead... petrol”可知，此处考查短语instead of“代替，而不是”。故填of。
【42题详解】
句意：如果我们把这些发明放在一起，最终我们可以让我们的城市摆脱交通堵塞。分析句子结构可知，此处应填一个副词修饰动词，final“最终的”，形容词，其副词形式为finally“终于；最终”。故填finally。
【43题详解】
句意：如果运输技术有更多的进步，我们不需要再拥有汽车了。根据“we wouldn’t need to own...(car) anymore”可知，此处表示我们不再需要拥有汽车，car为可数名词，其前没有限定词修饰，应用其复数形式。故填cars。
【44题详解】
句意：它会带我们去我们想去的地方，然后我们会再找一辆回家。句中缺少主语，结合前一句中的“a driverless car”可知，此处用it指代前面提到的“a driverless car”，句首单词首字母大写。故填It。
【45题详解】
句意：无人驾驶电动汽车可以一天24小时工作，所以我们也不需要那么多停车场。根据“Driverless electric cars can work 24 hours a day”和“we also wouldn’t need so many car parks”可知，前后句为因果关系，因为无人驾驶电动汽车可以24小时工作，所以不需要那么多停车场，空处应用so，表示结果。故填so。

【答案】例文：
Dear Emma,
Let me tell you how to prepare for exams. Good students never study hard only a few days before an exam. They study hard all the time. Remember that it is impossible to learn everything at the last minute.
First, take a short rest during your study. If you are too tired, you can’t remember things well. Second, you’d better not stay up late before an exam. You may feel tired or want to sleep the next day if you stay up too late before an exam. Third, try to do something else to relax yourself. You can listen to music or have a walk with your good friends.
That’s exactly what I do to feel less worried or nervous before an exam. I hope my advice can help you.
Li Ping
