School was always something I loved because I always enjoyed learning more.I never felt afraid of going to school early in the morning，and I never tried to get out of any work.I stayed after school every chance I got.I did most of the work I could，got the best grades I could，and in the end，I graduated from high school with honors.All my success was because of the teachers I had who helped me，pushed me，and made learning a fun thing to do.

At the beginning of the school year，I had a lot of trouble leaving my mom in the mornings，but Mrs.Trainer always sat with me，talked with me，and helped me feel OK without my mom.She was understanding，kind，and al-ways made the classroom a comfortable place.Mrs.Trainer also sat down and helped me learn；I was，and still，the worst speller，but she tried her best to help me.

The second was my senior high school English teacher，Mr.Stonerock.Mr.Stonerock was able to make English and writing fun，especially when we had eight-page papers to hand in.Some of my favorite high school memories（记忆） were in his classes.Mr.Stonerock also taught my class APA format（格式）which to me is invaluable.I use it every day in my life.He put up with so many shenanigans（恶作剧）from my classmates and me and always did it with a smile.

My point to all of this is that there are amazing and caring teachers out there whether they teach college level classes，high school level classes，or primary level classes.I have had more influential teachers than I can count.I am still in touch with some of my high school teachers，who give me life advice and guide me.Teachers are invaluable resources and no one can take their place.

Which are you more likely to have with you at any given moment — your cell phone or your wallet？Soon you may be able to throw your wallet away and pay for things with a quick wave of your smart phone over an electronic scanner.

In January，Starbucks announced that customers could start using their phones to buy coffee in 6，800 of its stores.This is the first pay-by-phone practice in the U.S.，but we're likely to see more wireless payment alternatives as something called near field communication （NFC） gets into America's consumer electronics.Last December some new smart phones which contain an NFC chip were introduced to the public.

Already in use in parts of Asia and Europe，NFC allows shoppers to wave their phones a few inches above a payment terminal — a contact-free system built for speed and convenience.But before NFC becomes widely adopted in the U.S.，a few problems need to be worked out，like who will get to collect the profitable trading fees.Although some credit card providers have been experimenting with wave-and-pay systems that use NFC-enabled credit cards，cell phone service providers may try to muscle their way into the point-of-sale （POS） market.Three big cell phone service providers have formed a joint companies that will go into operation over the next 15 months.Its goal is "to lead the U.S.payments industry from cards to mobile phones. " 公众号高中僧试题下载

The other big NFC issue，apart from how payments will be processed，is security.For instance，what's to stop a thief from digitally pick-pocketing you？ "We're still not at the point where an attacker can just brush against you in a crowd and steal all the money out of your phone， " says Jimmy Shah，a mobile-security researcher. "Users may also be able to set transaction limits，perhaps requiring a password to be entered for larger purchases.

Still uneasy about this digital-wallet business？Keep in mind that if you lose your smart phone，it can be located on a map and remotely disabled.Plus，your phone can be password protected，your wallet isn't.

8.  What is predicted to happen in the U.S.？ ______

A. The expansion of cell phone companies.
B. The boom of pay-by-phone business.
C. The disappearance of credit cards.
D. The increase of Starbucks sales.

9.  The NFC technology can be used to ______ .

A. ensure the safety of shoppers
B. collect transaction fees easily
C. make purchase faster and simpler
D. improve the quality of cell phones

10.  Three cell phone service providers form a joint companies to ______ .

A. strengthen their relationship
B. get a share in the payments industry
C. sell more cell phones
D. test the NFC technology

11.  According to the passage，what can users do if they lose their smart phones ？ ______

A. Stop the functioning of their phones.
B. Set up a password.
C. Get all the money out of their phones.
D. Cancel large purchases.

When you visit Kinderdijk，one of the most visited villages in the Netherlands，you step right into the middle of Dutch history.

Kinderdijk lies in the Alblasserwaard，where the Lek and Noord rivers meet together.Much of the village is near or even below sea level.Although there are canals and dykes （堤坝），the lowlands of the village are still at risk of flooding （洪灾）.Among the most deadly floods was Saint Elisabeth's flood in 1421，which killed thousands after the dykes broke in several places.To deal with this kind of problem，the Kinderdijk windmills （风车） were built around 1740 to move water from the lower areas to higher ground and into the river.

Nineteen of the 20 Kinderdijk windmills remain and were named a UNESCO World Heritage （遗产） Site in 1997.Of the 19 windmills，16 still have millers who live inside and control the huge sails （翼板） in the wind.These windmills continue to help manage the Netherlands ongoing fight to stay above water.

For tourists，boat tours are offered along the canals and walkways lead from the visitor center to the windmills.Two windmills serve as museums，filled with old millers' items and photos.You can climb up inside to see how the windmills work.The windmills also are working，so be prepared to feel the whole building shake when the sails turn in the wind.

Each year，about 500，000 people visit the Kinderdijk windmills and the buildings have become a must-see on any trip to the Netherlands.There are some windmills north of Amsterdam that "were built for tourists，but we're a historical site where tourists come，so it's the other way around，" says Kinderdijk communications manager Peter Paul Klapwijk. "Tourism is a good way to support our site."

12.  Why were the Kinderdijk windmills built around 1740？ ______

A. To protect dykes.
B. To produce clean water.
C. To prevent floods.
D. To keep the sea level from rising.

13.  What can we learn about Kinderdijk windmills？ ______

A. Most of them are working as before.
B. Most of them have become museums.
C. Several of them have been sold to millers.
D. Several of them were destroyed long ago.

14.  How does Peter Paul Klapwijk feel about so many tourists visiting the windmills？ ______

A. Fearful. B. Worried. C. Excited. D. Surprised.

15.  What does the text mainly introduce？ ______

A. The history of Kinderdijk
B. A famous historical site
C. An amazing village of canals
D. The traditions of the Netherlands

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

It was the last game of the season. Cali had been playing soccer all summer. She really enjoyed running around with the other players. As much as she tried, though, Cali still had not scored one single goal.

"Don't give up," said her coach. He showed Cali and her team how to pass the ball to each other and take shots at the goal. Cali was pretty good at passing the ball, but even during practices, she couldn't kick the ball past the goalkeeper. She wondered if she should quit soccer for good.

"Don't give up," said Uncle George-and Aunt Lisa. But it was half-time, and Cali was feeling upset. She was trying! Every time she got a chance to kick the ball, it would go in the wrong direction or a player from the other team would take control of it. Maybe she would try a different sport next summer.

The break was over and the referee (裁判) blew her whistle to start the game again. The two teams walked back onto the field, both determined to win. Cali heard her aunt whisper in her ear."Look for an opportunity to get the ball. You can do it." Cali took a deep breath. Even if she didn't get one goal all summer, she knew that she had tried her best. That was something to be proud of.

The yellow team was pretty good, but Cali's blue team was fast. Cali was off to the side when the ball headed her way. She ran over to it and kicked it. She watched it land right in front of a girl on the yellow team who expertly stopped it and sent it back in the other direction. Cali sighed (叹气).

Cali decided she'd wait until the game was over and then she was going to hang up her soccer shoes for good.

Cali started daydreaming about becoming a hip-hop dancer instead. She was woken from her daydream by some music that was definitely not hip-hop. It was the sweet, happy jingle of the ice cream truck.
Paragraph 1：It was right beside the soccer field, playing its music loudly to attract customers and players as well.                                                                                   

                                                                                       
    Paragraph 2：She ran fast to the ball.

In our life，we have treasures like money，houses and cars，etc.However，we have a lot more hidden treasures，such as knowledge，health and experiences.As senior students，the most important treasures in our life are friendship and ideals.（我眼中的财富）

It was right beside the soccer field, playing its music loudly to attract customers and players as well. The players on both teams turned to look at it. A few girls pointed to it and cheered. Some called out to their parents to buy them one. The soccer game had practically stopped. Cali looked around and saw the soccer ball close by, ignored by the nearest yellow player. Cali smiled.She looked at her aunt, who nodded at her. “Now!” Her aunt yelled. Cali didn't hesitate.

She ran fast to the ball. By the time the other girls had noticed, Cali was positioned right in front of the net. The goalkeeper was standing to one side, also looking at the ice cream truck. She turned back quickly to guard the net as Cali kicked the ball hard. The goalkeeper reached out her gloved hand. The ball touched the tips of her fingers as it swooshed past, right into the top corner of the net. The referee blew her whistle. “Goal!”
