DWhen I was twelve years old, my family were the first black people to move into an all white part of Grand Rapids, Michigan. Many of our new neighbors weren’t very welcoming. Some of them said angrily that we should return to where we came from. The children sometimes threw stones at me or drove me home from school.Most of my teachers simply took no notice of me, but not Dorothy Bean, my history teacher. Miss Bean was angry at how badly I was being treated, but she didn’t say this to me. Miss Bean showed her respect for me by teaching me just like anyone else. Instead of being unnoticed, I was given a chance to show that I was clever. Miss Bean was the first teacher who ever made me think for myself. She always wanted to know what I thought about difficult questions. Was Thomas Jefferson right to buy Louisiana from France? Why? She expected me to have my own idea. Miss Bean was teaching me that thinking for oneself was the real key to education.One day, when I was not paying attention in class, Miss Bean suddenly threw an eraser at me. The eraser hit me right on the hand and sent my pencil flying. The whole class were very surprised at first, then started laughing. This event became famous in the school and, because it happened to me, the students wanted to get to know me. So that’s the story of how Dorothy Bean made me her target（靶子）, and how I became just another kid in school.51.

阅读理解There is no doubt that man is a member of the animal kingdom.Anyone who has thought about this fact seriously must have wondered how it has come about that man has achieved a position so supreme(最高的) among the myriad(无数的) kinds of animal life.Two characteristics of man, in comparison with all other animals, that stand out above all others are the creation and use of tools and the development and use of language.Since no other animals have achieved these abilities, it must be assumed that man’s evolutionary development led to his capacity to create and use tools and to devise and use language.Once these abilities and practices evolved, they probably became driving forces in the further evolution of man.Those members of the species who become most proficient(精通的) in the fabrication of tools and in the command of language and thought would tend to survive and maintain their kind for good, at the expense of those of lesser ability.11.Which of the following statements best expresses the main idea of the passage?()A.Tools and language are either the effects or the causes of human evolution.B.No other animals have achieved human abilities.C.Among the animals, only man is able to use tools and language.D.Man owns his capacity to making use of tools and language.12.“Animal kingdom” in the passage refers to ().A.the place where all animals liveB.the animal societyC.all kinds of animals, including manD.the forest with animals13.One important condition for man’s evolution is() .A.the animal kingdomB.a supreme positionC.the myriad kindsD.his natural capacity14.The phrase “come about” in the passage is likely to mean ________.A.happenedB.appearedC.arrivedD.succeeded15.The last sentence suggests that() .A.those of lesser ability would be very expensiveB.in order to survive, man has to sacrifice some other animalsC.those who become proficient in making tools can speak wellD.language and thought could be acquired by man

Most animals have little connection with animals of different kind, unless they hunt them for food. Sometimes, however, two kinds of animals come together in a partnership ( 伙伴关系 ) which does good to both of them. You may have noticed some birds sitting on the backs of sheep. This is not because they want a ride, but because they find easy food in the parasites (寄生虫 ) on sheep. The sheep allow the birds to do so because they remove the cause of discomfort. So although they can manage without each other, they do better together.Sometimes an animal has a plant partner. The relationship develops until the two partners cannot manage without each other. This is so in the corals ( 珊瑚 ) of the sea. In their skins they have tiny plants act as "dustman", taking some of the waste products form. the corals and giving in return oxygen which the animal needs to breathe. If the plants are killed, or are ever prevented from lighting so that they cannot live normally, the corals will die.1、Some birds like to sit on a sheep because ( ).A、they can eat its parasitesB、 they depend on the sheep for existenceC、 they enjoy traveling with the sheepD、 they find the position most comfortable2、The underlined word "they" in the last sentence of the first paragraph refers to ( ).A、birds and parasitesB、birds and sheepC、parasites and sheepD、sheep, birds and parasites3、What does the second paragraph mainly discuss? ( )A、Some animals and plants depend on each other for existence.B、 Some animals and plants develop their relationship easily.C、 Some plants depend on each other for fooD、 Some animals live better together.4、What does this article talk about? ( )A、Two kinds of animals for a partnership.B、Most animals only have connection with animals.C、The connection between the living things.D、Corals have some connection with plants.

根据下面资料，回答For many women choosing whether to work or not to work outside their home is a luxury; they must work to survive. Others face a hard decision. Perhaps the choice has to do with economics. One husband said, "Marge and I decided after careful consideration that for her to go back to work at this moment was an extravagance. We couldn′t afford it." With two preschool children, it soon became clear in their figuring that with babysitters, transportation, and increased taxes, rather than having more money, they might actually end up with less. Economic factors are usually the first to be considered, but they are not the most important. The most important aspects of the decision have to do with the emotional needs of each member of the family. It is in this area that husbands and wives find themselves having to face many confusing and conflicting feelings. There are many women who find that homemaking is boring or who feel imprisoned if they have to stay home with a young child or several children. On the other hand, there are women who think that homemaking gives them the deepest satisfaction. From my own experience, I would like to suggest that sometimes the decision to go back to work is made in too much haste. There are few decisions that I now regret more. I wasn′t mature enough to see how much I could have gained at home. I regret my impatience to get on with my career. I wish I had allowed myself the luxury of watching the world through my little girl′s eyes. Why did Marge and her husband think it an extravagance for Marge to go back to work?A.Because they might pay more than they earned on the whole.B.Because they don't have the baby sitter to help them.C.Because Marge has to take care of their children at home.D.Because Marge has to pay more transportation fares.
共用题干Interview with Allan Gray1. I was working for a multinational company in the early 1980s,and my brother asked me if I was interested in going into partnership with him to set up a language school.I'd always wanted to work for myself,and I was a bit fed up with working for someone else,so I said yes.Primarily, I wanted the freedom to make my own decisions,I wanted room to be creative,and also I wanted to be able to get the credit and keep the profits if we were successful.I was also happy to carry the can and take the blame if things went wrong.These things are not possible if you work as an employee in a large organization.2. I had to borrow money to help start the business,but we were lucky because we also had some outside capital to put into the business.These days it can be really hard to persuade banks to lend money to people who want to start a company,so we were fortunate .It was fairly easy to set up the business,because we had a very clear idea of what we wanted to do.The problem was,all our preconceptions（预想）about what it would be like to run a business were wrong. We made lots of mistakes, and we almost went bankrupt（破产的）at the beginning. At one point, we only had two students in the school.3. Far too long!We lost money for the first four years and,as I was saying,we nearly went out of business.It took quite a long time to start making profit. The best thing we did,though,was that we hired some really good people to work for us.In fact,some of those people are still work-ing for us,24 years later.

共用题干第三篇Animal Testing ControversyTo paraphrase 18th-century statesman Edmund Burke,"All that is needed for the triumph of a misguided cause is that good people do nothing." One such cause now seeks to end biomedical research because of the theory that animals have rights ruling out their use in research.Scientists need to respond forcefully to animal rights advocates,whose arguments are confusing the public and thereby threatening advances in health knowledge and care.Leaders of the animal rights movement target biomedical research because it depends on public funding,and few people understand the process of health care research.Hearing allegations of cruelty to animals in research settings,many are perplexed that anyone would deliberately harm an animal.For example,a grandmotherly woman staffing an animal rights booth at a recent street fair was distributing a brochure that encouraged readers not to use anything that comes from or is animals一no meat,no fur,no medicines.Asked if she opposed immunizations,she wanted to know if vaccines come from animal research.When assured that they do,she replied,"Then I would have to say yes."Asked what will happen when epidemics return,she said,"Don't worry,scientists will find some way of using computers."Such well-meaning people just don't understand.Scientists must communicate their message to the public in a compassionate,understandable way一in human terms,not in the language of molecular biology.We need to make clear the connection between animal research and a grandmother's hip replacement,a father's bypass operation,a baby's vaccinations,and even a pet's shots.To those who are unaware that animal research was nee-- ded to produce these treatments,as well as new treatments and vaccines,animal research seems wasteful at best and cruel at worst.Much can be done.Scientists could"adopt"middle school classes and present their own re-search.They should be quick to respond to letters to the editor,lest animal rights misinformation go unchallenged and acquire a deceptive appearance of truth.Research institutions could be opened to tours,to show that laboratory animals receive humane care.Finally,because the ultimate stakeholders are patients,the health research community should actively recruit to its cause not only well-known personalities such as Stephen Cooper,who has made courageous statements about the value of animal research,but all who receive medical treatment.If good people do nothing there is a real possibility that an uninformed citizenry will extinguish the precious embers of medical progress.Misled people tend to think that using an animal in research is________.A:cruel but naturalB:inhuman and unacceptableC:inevitable but viciousD:pointless and wasteful
