    Marie Curie, born in Sklodovka, Poland in 1876, led a hard life as a girl. Her parents, both teachers, had small salaries and were quite poor, especially after her mother stopped teaching to raise five children and take care of her poor health. Marie's mother suffered from tuberculosis (肺结核) and died of it when Marie was ten.

    When Marie was small, she showed great interest in science. She loved to study and hoped to become a scientist when she grew up. Her parents encouraged her interest in science. Excellent as she was in her studies, she couldn't go on with the advanced education she needed because Poland was then ruled by Russia and women were not permitted to go to college.

    In order to continue her education, she smoothed away many difficulties and entered Paris University, where she lived a simple life and studied hard, so she graduated with the highest grades in her class.

    After graduation she was engaged in scientific research in Paris University. There she met Pierre Curie, whom she married. Pierre joined her in her research into an unknown phenomenon “radiation”which a certain scientist had declared that uranium gave off. The Curies spent several years trying their best to find the element that produced radiation. Finally they succeeded in 1902.

    Marie Curie won two Nobel Prizes, one for physics in 1906, together with her husband and another scientist; the other for chemistry herself in 1911. Madame Curie was a scientist of great achievement, and the first woman ever to be honored in the Nobel Prize history.

    4When Marie was young, her family became poorer because ________.

    A. the family had five children

    B. Marie's father had a small salary

    C. Marie's mother gave up her job

    D. the family was cruelly taxed by the Russians

    5Marie couldn't continue the advanced education because ________.

    A. she wanted to help her father to support the family

    B. her father couldn't afford to send her to college

    C. her grades were very poor

    D. colleges in Poland would not take women as students then

    6The fact that proves she was the best student in her class is that ________.

    A. she smoothed away many difficulties and entered Paris University

    B. her grades were the highest in her class

    C. she did research work after her graduation

    D. she won the Nobel Prize finally

    7The best title for this passage is ________.

    A. A Brief (简短的) Account (叙述) of Madame Curie's Life

    B. Madame Curie and Radium

    C. Marie Curie's Childhood

    D. Madame Curie's Interest in Science

    C

    After a terrible electrical accident, which caused him to become both blind and deaf, the whole world became completely dark and quiet for Robert Edwards for almost ten years. The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such sorrow that he tried a few times to put an end to his life. His family, especially his wife, did their best to tend and comfort him and finally he regained the will to live.

    One hot summer afternoon, he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once. He stood under a large tree to avoid getting wet, but he was struck by the lightning. Witnesses thought he was dead but he woke up some 20 minutes later lying face down in muddy water at the base of the tree. He was trembling badly, but when he opened his eyes, he could hardly believe what he saw: a plough and a wall. When Mrs. Edwards came running up to him, shouting to their neighbors to call for help, he could see her and hear her voice for the first time in nearly ten years.

    The news of Robert regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread, and many doctors came to examine him. Most of them said that he regained his sight and hearing from the shock he got from the lightning. However, none of them could give a convincing answer as to why this should have happened. The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that, since Robert lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock, perhaps, the only way for him to regain them was by another sudden shock.

    8. The reason for Robert’s attempts to kill himself was that _________.

    A. he had to live in a dark and silent world

    B. a terrible traffic accident happened to him  

    C. he was struck by the lightning once more  

    D. nobody in the world cared about him

    9. What was Robert doing when he was struck by the lightning?

    A. Sheltering from the rain under a tree.     B. Driving a car.

    C. Taking a walk with a stick.      D. Lying on the ground.

    10. We can infer from the text that ________.

    A. Robert’s wife sent for doctors immediately after the shock

    B. many doctors came because Robert was badly injured

    C. there was no accurate explanation for Robert’s recovery

    D. a sudden injury in the head led to Robert’s recovery

    11. What’s the best title of the whole passage?

    A. A Terrible Electrical Accident   

    B. Robert Edwards and His Wife

    C. An Unforgettable Experience  

    D. What a Sudden Shock

                                     D

    Walk through the Amazon rainforest today and you will find it is steamy, warm, damp and thick. But if you had been around 15,000 years ago, during the last ice age, would it have been the same? For more than 30 years, scientists have been arguing about how rainforests like the Amazon might have reacted to the cold, dry climates of the ice ages, but until now, no one has reached a satisfying answer.

    Rainforests like the Amazon are important for mopping up CO2 from the atmosphere and helping to slow global warming. Currently the trees in the Amazon take in around 500 million tons of CO2 each year: equal to the total amount of CO2 giving off in the UK each year. But how will the Amazon react to future climate change? If it gets drier, will it still survive and continue to draw down CO2 ?

    Scientists hope that they will be able to learn in advance how the rainforest will manage in the future by understanding how rainforests reacted to climate change in the past. Unfortunately, getting into the Amazon rainforest and collecting information are very difficult. To study past climate, scientists need to look at fossilized pollen, kept in lake mud. Going back to the last ice age means drilling deep down into lake sediments (沉淀物) which requires specialized equipment and heavy machinery. There are very few roads and paths, or places to land helicopters and aeroplanes. Rivers tend to be the easiest way to enter the forest, but this still leaves vast areas between the rivers completely unsampled (未取样). So far, only a handful of cores have been drilled that go back to the last ice age and none of them provide enough information to prove how the Amazon rainforest reacts to climate change.

    12.What does the underlined phase mopping up in the second paragraph mean?

    A.Giving up.    B.Giving out    C. Wiping out   D.Taking in

    13. How will the Amazon rainforest react to future climate change?

    A. It’ll get drier and continue to remove CO2.

    B. There is no exact answer up to present.

    C. It’ll get warmer and then colder and drier.

    D. It’ll remain steamy, warm, damp and thick.

    14. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?

    A. It’s important to drill deep down into lake sediments to collect information.

    B. It’s impossible to prove how climate changes in the Amazon rainforest.

    C. It’s hard to collect information for studies of the past climate in the Amazon rainforest.

    D. It’s necessary to have specialized equipment and machinery to study the past climate.

    15. What is the best title for this passage?

    A. Studies of the Rainforests B. Climates of the Amazon

    C. Secrets of the Ice Age D. Changes of the Rainforests

    Kids' health: Four steps for fighting stress

But other ways, like talking to someone you trust, can lead you to solving your problem or at least feeling better.Try taking these four steps the next time you are stressed

    Be positive. Most stress is temporary (暂时的). Remember stress does go away, especially when you figure out the problem and start working on solving it. These steps aren't magic, but they do work. And if you can stay positive as you make your way through a tough time, you'll help yourself feel better even faster. __20__

    B. Notice your friends' feelings and find a way to help them.

    第二节 书面表达 (范文)

    Dear Bill

    I'm glad to receive your letter. Thank you for your concern for the weather in my hometown and my health. I'm writing to tell you some details about it.

    The smog happened on October 20th and it lasted 3 days. Visibility was so low that you could only see things within ten meters. The PM2.5 level is 40 times what the World Health Organization considers safe.

    Effective measures were taken to reduce the harm done by the heavy smog. Many people chose to stay at home rather than go outside. If they had to, they wore masks which could prevent the dirty air from being breathed in. Additionally, the number of private cars on the street decreased a lot as public transport was a wiser choice in that horrible weather. Some people even walked to work in the hope of reducing air pollution with their own effort.

     Would you like to tell me some more good ideas? I'm looking forward to your reply.

    Yours truly
