He wanted to win the local garden club’s  “ Yard of the Month” award.Fryar didn’t have the money to purchase new trees, so he began by using bushes and shrubs that a local nursery had thrown away—plants that looked dead to most people.Because he worked days at a factory, Fryar often tended his garden at night. Neighbors got used to seeing him stand on the ladder, cutting up his steadily growing bushes. The shrubs began to take on different shapes. As the years went by, the creations became more delicate. Fryar began planting trees and using zip ties, coat hangers, PVC pipe, and even his wife’s old stockings to achieve the forms he wanted. “He has a way of handling plants to make them become what he wants them to be by training, bending, wiring and clipping,” said a neighbor.Many professional gardeners are amazed by what Fryar has been able to accomplish. Some plants which wouldn’t survive in the South thrived under his care.Fryar’s attention to detail and his willingness to work hard have made him a local hero. He was the first African American to win “Yard of the Month” from the local garden club.Fryar’s garden now includes about 400 species of plants and 150 different plant sculptures. A box for donations can be found on the property, but giving is optional. Fryar welcomes people who can’t afford to pay. He understands. He’s been there. “You can be somebody,” he tells students who visit the garden. “ Show me anyone who works at anything with a passion and has patience, and they’re going to be successful. Be strong enough not to let the barriers in life stop you.”24.How did Fryar make his garden unique?A. He made the plants into different shapes.B. He bought new trees from a local nursery.C. He used his professional knowledge.D. He asked his neighbors to cut up his bushes.25.What does the underlined word “thrived” in paragraph 4 mean?A. Died away. B. Became weak.C. Faded slowly. D. Grew strong.26.What made Fryar win the award?A. Passion and innovation. B. Patience and generosity.C. Ambition and sympathy. D. Willingness and honesty.27.What is the best title for the text?A. Making a Man into a HeroB. The Hard Life of Pearl FryarC. Transforming a Garden into ArtD. The First Man of “Yard of the Month” CSome parents will buy any high-tech toy if they think it will help their child, but researchers said puzzles help children with math-related skills.Psychologist Susan Levine, an expert on mathematics development in young children at the University of Chicago, found children who play with puzzles between ages 2 and 4 later develop better spatial skills. Puzzle play was found to be a significant predictor of cognition(认知) after controlling for differences in parents’income, education and the amount of parent talk, Levine said.The researchers analyzed video recordings of 53 child-parent pairs during everyday activities at home and found children who play with puzzles between 26 and 46 months of age have better spatial skills when assessed at 54 months of age.“The children who played with puzzles performed better than those who did not, on tasks that assessed their ability to rotate(旋转) and translate shapes.” Levine said in a statement.The parents were asked to interact with their children as they normally would, and about half of the children in the study played with puzzles at one time. Higher-income parents tended to have children play with puzzles more frequently, and both boys and girls who played with puzzles had better spatial skills. However, boys tended to play with more complex puzzles than girls, and the parents of boys provided more spatial language and were more active during puzzle play than the parents of girls.The findings were published in the journal Developmental Science.28.In which aspect do children benefit from puzzle play?A. Building confidence.B. Developing spatial skills.C. Learning self-control.D. Gaining high-tech knowledge.29.What did Levine take into consideration when designing her experiment?A. Parents’ age.B. Children’s imagination.C. Parents’ education.D. Child-parent relationship.30.How do boys differ from girls in puzzle play?A. They play with puzzles more often.B. They tend to talk less during the game.C. They prefer to use more spatial language.D. They are likely to play with tougher puzzles.31.What is the text mainly about?A.A mathematical method. B.A scientific study.C.A woman psychologist. D.A teaching program.DBritain’s got talent—but we’re still wasting it. That’s the main finding of a new report by researchers from Oxford University. Children of similar cognitive(认知的) ability have very different chances of educational success; it still depends on their parents’economic, sociocultural and educational resources. This contradicts a commonly held view that our education system has developed enough to give everyone a fighting chance. The researchers looked at the data from groups of children born in three decades:1950s,1970s and 1990s.They found significant evidence of a wastage of talent. Individuals with high levels of cognitive ability but with disadvantages in their social origins are unable to translate their ability into educational achievement to the same extent as their more advantaged counterparts(对照组).The research, funded by the Nuffield Foundation, found that only about half of the difference in educational achievement between children from advantaged and disadvantaged parental backgrounds is due to differences in their cognitive ability. The other half is due to other factors associated with their backgrounds.“If we compare the educational achievement of children born in the 1990s to those in the late 1950s and early 1970s,we see that parents’ economic resources have become a less important factor, but their sociocultural and educational resources have grown in significance,” says Dr Bukodi.“ That means that your parents’ place in society and their own level of education still play a big part in how well you may do.”These experts are now calling for policy-makers to acknowledge that formal qualifications are only one channel for upward mobility for high-ability individuals of disadvantaged backgrounds. Dr Bukodi says, “These findings show that there are limits to how far inequalities of opportunity can be reduced through educational policy alone. Changes in educational policy aren’t having the powerful effect we want.”32.What is the main finding of the research?A. We’re wasting talent due to the education system.B. Children of similar cognitive ability have different chances of educational success.C. Children’s cognitive ability depends on different educational resources.D. The education system has developed enough to give children a fighting chance.33.How does the author mainly develop the text?A. By making comparisons.B. By discussing a result.C. By giving examples.D. By presenting reasons.34.According to Dr Bukodi, what affects children’s educational achievement greatly?A. Children’s cognitive ability.B. Parents’ economic resources.C. Educational policy.D. Parents’ sociocultural and educational backgrounds.35.What is the author’s attitude towards the finding of the new report?A. Favourable. B. Objective.C. Doubtful. D. Negative.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，有两项为多余选项。Some high school students think it useless to receive higher education.　36　 If you’re one of them, think again. Here are some reasons why you should go to college and receive a good education there.37　 We take that knowledge later on to build our careers after graduation. More knowledge will be gained after you start working, but without education, that job will not be within easy reach. Knowledge leads to knowledge.While limited within the walls of the educational places, we openly explore other cultures of the world!　38　 Other cultures have valuable things to share, enriching our own. Education also makes us want to travel and exchange with various cultures, getting more experience.When there’s a recession (衰退) in the economy, those who attended college will be more likely to find a new job than those who only finished high school and have a limited skill set. The more education you have, the more chances you will get to improve the quality of your life as you have a better job and earn a higher salary.When you’re skillful and knowledgeable, you gain access to people of similar backgrounds and tastes.　39　 Good networking can benefit you a lot in your later life.40　 You can talk about ideas and events instead of just other people and what’s on sale in stores. An educated person doesn’t gossip (说闲话), having a preference to discuss ideas and listen to what other people have to say.A. Therefore, they choose not to go to college.B. We come to know that ours is not the only culture.C. There is a negative side of earning a good education too.D.A good education makes you a more interesting person.E. It means a good education leads to excellent networking.F. Schools and universities are the first places to get knowledge.G.

On the other hand, have you ever thought that what you may give someone else may be the best day you ever had especially when you put someone ease's well-being or happiness first on your list?There is special warmth available to you and that warmth can come from a helping hand, doing a small favor for a total stranger, or even a smile.I recalled a day recently when I had to go to the hospital for an appointment because I wasn’t feeling well and my doctor sent me to a specialist to try and determine the cause.As I drove to the hospital, I was admittedly feeling gloomy and certainly wasn’t on top of my game. As I approached the hospital, I began my search for a parking spot, a spot that was hard to find with everyone else trying to do the same thing. I finally found a spot not too far from the entrance to the hospital.As I got out and brought my change out of my pocket, I noticed a man looking somewhat upset standing in front of a parking meter two cars away. He seemed to be searching his pockets for what I supposed was change for the meter.Although, I really didn’t feel that great, I thought that I should at least go over to him and find out if I could help him. As I approached him, he turned to look at me, feeling at a loss not knowing what to do. I asked him if he had a problem I could help with, and he said without hesitation that he had no change at all because he left it in his house only thinking about visiting his sick wife.注意:续写词数应为150左右。Faced with such a situation, I reached into my pocket.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The funny thing was that I felt a lot brighter, and a small smile came to my face.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
