This was the first real task I received in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. As I searched the name, I found that there were two famous people having the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts(花生), while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice; let the coin decide. I flipped(掷) a coin and Ah! Tails (背面)! My report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.

Weeks later, I stood in front of the classroom and proudly read my homework. But things started to get strange. I looked around the room, only to find my classmates with big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes and my stone-faced teacher. I was completely lost. “What could be causing everyone to act this way?”

Oh well, I dropped the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American War of Independence.” The whole world became quiet! How could I know that my teacher meant that George Washington?

Of course, my subject result was awful. Sad but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to the headmaster Miss Lancelot, but she said firmly: No re-dos; no new score. I felt that it was not fair, and I believed I deserved a second chance. So I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, I sat in the headmaster’s office again, but this time a completely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the terrible moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster told me I was good enough to skip(跳过) the 6th grade and started the 7th grade next term.

24. The task I received was to find information about ________.

A. uses for peanuts             B. American War of Independence

C. George Washington          D. my headmaster Miss Lancelot

25. People in the class acted strangely because ________.

A. I was too proud of my homework

B. I mistook what the homework was about

C. the whole world suddenly became quiet

D. the teacher’s face turned to a stone

26. We can infer(推断) from the passage that ________.

A. the headmaster didn’t like the writer at all

B. the writer’s classmates felt sad at his mistake

C. the writer knew little about American history

D. the writer’s grandpa was a very wise man

27. Which of the following proverbs can best describe the main idea of this story?

A. Seeing is believing.             B. Where there is a will, there is a way.

C. One is never too old to learn.     D. A friend in need is a friend indeed.

All eyes were on Jack Ma(马云). The chairman of Alibaba Group Holding Ltd stepped down on Teachers’ Day from leading the e-commerce giant he founded 20 years ago.

    “I still have lots of dreams to go after,” Ma wrote in an open letter last year to announce his parting. “The world is big, and I am still young, so I want to try new things.”

    The 55-year-old businessman showed that he was ready for new things by arriving at his farewell party (欢送会) dressed up like a rock star.

    In fact, his rags-to-riches (白手起家的) story is a good example of doing something different. Visiting the United States in 1995, Ma saw the Internet and had the idea of setting up his own trading website. In 1999, he founded Alibaba with a group of friends in a shared apartment, struggling for years to get it off the ground. With all the challenges, the company slowly brought e-commerce to China.

    Although his success has inspired (激励) a number of Chinese tech businessmen, Ma pointed out that the key is having a dream. “It’s the dreams that keep us never afraid of setbacks (挫折),” Ma said in a video posted on Sept 9.

    Now the experienced businessman is looking to focus on education. What can he offer?

    “I’m not going to teach English; I’m not going to teach business. But I’m going to teach young people how to face challenges,” he told Bloomberg News.

    Skilled sailors were never made on calm waters. As Ma said, “Today is cruel. Tomorrow is crueler. But the day after tomorrow is beautiful.”

28. What did Jack Ma announce on Teachers’ Day?

A. His plan to return to teaching.          

B. His plan to enlarge his online business.

C. His dream of becoming a rock star.     

D. His retirement from Alibaba. 

29. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?

A. The important role of Alibaba.

B. How Ma inspires others to do something different.

C. How Ma got the idea for his business.     

D. Difficulties Ma went through to found Alibaba.

30. What does Ma think dreams mean to us?

A. Dreams can give us confidence and courage. 

B. Dreams can guide us to further our education

C. Dreams can push us to set up new businesses.  

D. Dreams can lead us to offer more to society.

31. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?

A. Practice makes perfect.                      

B. Confidence is the key to success.

C. Good conditions can help people grow and learn.  

D. Challenges allow us to develop new abilities.    

D

Chinese students always complain that they’re under great pressure and don’t get enough sleep. But they may be surprised to learn that they’re much luckier than their peers (同龄人) in South Korea and Japan, according to a recently published report, conducted by Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences on the physical and mental health of senior high school students in the three Asian countries.

According to the study among nearly 6,000 high school students in the three countries, Chinese students are the tallest but poorest in physical fitness. Chinese students are on average 168.17cm, compared with 167.61cm for South Korean students and 164.70cm for Japanese students. Chinese students asked for sick leave more than students in other countries. About 72 percent of Korean students never asked for sick and injury leave during high school, compared to 53 percent for Japanese students and 45 percent for Chinese students. Moreover, Chinese students drink alcohol and smoke earlier than Korean and Japanese students. Around 70 percent of Chinese students have drunk alcohol, compared to 50 percent for Korean and Japanese students.

According to the survey, Japanese and South Korean students suffer more pressure than their Chinese peers. Statistics show 16 percent of students in China said they experienced mental pressure often over the past year, while the numbers in Japan and South Korea were 33 percent and 47 percent respectively. Their worries come from “study”, “future after graduation”, “friendships” and “relationship with their parents”. To go with stress, 57.9 percent of Korean students sleep the least, less than six hours a day, compared with 46.6 percent of Japanese students and 30 percent of Chinese students.

More Chinese students were satisfied with their physical appearance, double that of students in the survey from Japan and South Korea. The report said that over half of students in South Korea had tried to lose weight in the past year, while in China the figure was only 22 percent. In measures of self-worth, such as “I think I am valuable” and “I think I am successful”, “I can complete many things”, “I won’t give up to failure,” Chinese students showed greater self-confidence than students in Japan and South Korea.

32. What’s the main idea of the second paragraph?

A. Chinese students ask for sick leave most often.

B. Chinese students drink most alcohol and smoke earliest.

C. Japanese students ask for least sick leave.

D. Chinese teenagers are tallest, but most unhealthy.

33. It can be inferred from the passage that _________.

A. Chinese students are confident in themselves and luckier

B. Chinese students are luckiest, yet most unsuccessful

C. Japanese students are most stressed

D. South Korean students sleep the least

34. What does the underlined word “that” refer to?

A. the height    B. the number       C. the weight    D. the appearance

35. The worries that causes students to be stressed come from the following factors EXCEPT _______.

A. study and career             B. friendships   

C. physical appearance          D. family relationship

An 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old highly educated son. Suddenly a crow(乌鸦) perched on the tree near their window.

The father asked his son, “What is this?” The son replied, “It is a crow.”

After a few minutes, the father asked his son the second time, “What is this?” The son said, “Father, I have just now told you it is a crow.”

After a little while, the old father again asked his son the 3rd time, “What is this?”

At this time some expression of irritation（恼怒）was felt in the son’s tone when he said to his father unwillingly, “It’s a crow, a crow.” A little while later, the father again asked his son the fourth time, “What is this?”

This time, the son shouted at his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again, although I have told you so many times ’IT IS A CROW’. Are you not able to understand this?”

A little later the father went to his room and came back with an old tattered（发皱的） diary, which he had maintained since his son was born.

On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page. When the son read it, the following words were written in the diary:

“Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa, when a crow was sitting on the window. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied to him all 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question. I did not at all feel irritated but I rather felt affection for my innocent son.

Dear Johnson，

I'm Li Ping from Class 6, Grade 1.I'm glad to hear that new members are wanted in the English club and I'm willing to join it.

I'm interested in English and have a good knowledge of it. Last year, I won the first prize in the English competition. Having learnt English for more than ten years, I can communicate with others in English fluently. What's more, I have some special skills, such as singing songs, telling stories and making speeches. I'm sure I can play an active part in the future activities of the society. Above all, I'm easy to get along with and enjoy working with others.

I'm looking forward to being accepted.

Yours，

Li Ping

【二】

After reading the diary, the son was filled with tears and began to reflect on the days when he used to sit together with his father. His father would patiently answer the same question all 23 times without feeling irritation while his father asked him the same question just four times! The son thought to himself: If I grow old, how will my son look at me? Will he think of me as a burden? Will he shout at me because of my poor sight, poor hearing or poor understanding?

Feeling ashamed, the son got down on his knees before his father. He made an apology to his father, begging his father to forgive him for his bad behavior. He said this aloud, “I promise to see you happy forever, Dad. It is you who have cared for me since I was a little child, showering your selfless affection on me. You worked hard to make money so that I could afford to go to university. I will serve you in the best way.”
