And many schools even have made their teachers supervise their students’ behavior more strictly. But one school in Auckland‎, ‎New Zealand has done something different. Instead of making more rules for the playground, they reduced the number of rules.‎ What happened? There’s less bullying and other injuries.‎ At Swanson Primary School, during playtime, students can play in the mud, climb trees, ride skateboards，and do many such things that aren’t allowed at other schools. If they promise that they do not hurt others and do not make trouble for their classmates, they can do just about anything they want.‎ ‎“They may accidentally hurt themselves，but that’s 〇K,” the teacher Bruce McLachlan says. “We want kids to be safe and we look after them，but we end up wrapping (包裹) them in cotton wool when in fact they should be able to fall over.” Because students are able to do almost anything they want, they are happier. And happier students are less interested in making trouble. That makes parents and teachers happy.‎ Playtime freedom also helps the students learn the dangers of rude behavior. This will help develop the part of their brain that measures risks. This can be helpful when they are older. For example, if a kid does something rude on a skateboard and gets hurt, he or she will be less likely to repeat the rude activity. And if kids learn not to be rude on a skateboard, they are less likely to be hurt later in life when they’re driving cars. Safety is important, but as Swanson Primary School has shown，more rules don’t always mean more safety.‎ ‎24. What happened when a school reduced the number of playground rules?‎ A. Less students were bullied or injured.‎ B. Teachers took on more responsibility.‎ C. Students were out of control completely.‎ D. More parents worried about school bully.‎ ‎25. What rule should students obey if they can do something freely at Swanson‎ ‎Primary School?‎ A. They do not hurt anyone else.‎ B. They’re being strictly supervised C. They study carefully in the classroom.‎ D. They do not make trouble for their teachers.‎ ‎26. What does Bruce McLachlan mean by saying “we end up wrapping them in cotton wool”？‎ A. Students get hurt easily.‎ B. Students are overprotected.‎ C. Students can’t wear what they like.‎ D. Students are given too much freedom.‎ ‎27. According to the last paragraph, playtime freedom helps students ________.‎ A. avoid driving cars B. make safe decisions C. learn how to obey rules D. become more confident C For most people, graduation means the end of years of hard work. But my graduation day was not. I still remember that weekend two years ago. Many families flew in from across the country to watch our class walk across that stage. But we had seen the economy turn from bad to worse in my senior year.‎ We graduates with degrees, but very limited prospects (前途). I gathered up everything I couldn’t carry and put it into storage. Knowing the small university town couldn’t offer me any opportunities, I drove to Southern California to find work. But after I sent off a bunch of job applications, I found myself in the exact same spot as I was before. Now the day came for me to pay off my student loans(贷款).‎ Every morning I woke up, I felt anxious. How I hoped what happened to me was just a bad dream! Days felt like weeks, weeks like months. I felt painful and helpless in those months. And the most discouraging part was no matter how much I tried, I just couldn’t seem to make any progress.‎ So I began to write. Putting words on a page made everything seem a little brighter. And writing gave me hope. If you want something badly enough, sometimes a little hope is all you need!‎ I channeled my frustration(挫折)into a children’s book. Beyond the River was the story of an unlikely hero featuring a little fish who simply refused to give up on his dream.‎ And then one day, without any sort of writing degree---just a lot of hard work and perseverance(毅力)---I was offered a publishing contract for my first book! After that, things slowly began to improve. I was ‎ offered a second book deal. Then, a few months later, I got an interview with The Walt Disney Company and was hired shortly after.‎ If you work hard and give it time, things will always get better. Even if things seem hopeless now, don’t give up. Usually, our dreams lie in wait just a little further upstream. All we need is the courage to push beyond the river.‎ ‎28.Many families got to the author’s school to __________.‎ A. have fun at a school party B. check the economic situation C. attend the graduation ceremony D. watch performances given by students ‎29.How did the author feel when graduating from the university?‎ A. Excited B. Disappointed C. Hopeful D. Confident ‎30.What is the third paragraph mainly about?‎ A. The difficult situation the author was in B. The frustration the author had in his university C. The struggle the author had in choosing his career D. The suffering the author experienced while writing ‎31.What does the author mainly intend to tell us?‎ A. All roads lead to Rome B. Wisdom comes from experience C. You can’t get something for nothing D. Where there is a will, there is a way D Venom(毒液）from a local scorpion(蝎子）in Cuba is being used by Cuban scientists as an effective weapon to fight cancer. The venom, with stopping pain, anti-inflammatory (炎症） and anti-cancer properties, is the active ingredient in the medicine “Vidatox 30 CH which can be used to treat liver, brain, lung and other cancers. The treatment has been successfully used for more than four years in humans after being first tested in biological models. Labiofam, a Cuban laboratory, has breeding(繁殖)centers for both the Red Scorpion and Blue Scorpion. Each month, some 30,000 scorpions in Las Minas town, 270 km east of Havana are made to give the venom. After two years, the scorpions are released back into their natural habitat.‎ Denyer Sanchez, a biologist from Labiofam, explained that the conditions are adjusted for reproduction, proved by the high number of breeding female scorpions. He said when the offspring(后代）becomes able to live in the environment, we release them because they do not have the necessary size yet to remove their venom, said Sanchez. Sanchez also said that there is still much to research on the exploitation process of scorpions, such as female death rate or the ability to survive of the released scorpions.‎ Cuban research on the scorpion’s venom began at the end of 1980s in Guantanamo province, the island’s eastern tip, where a group of biologists and doctors became interested in the stories told by the peasants about the venom's benefits. However，the first discovery was made by Cuban biologist Misael Bordier. In 2001, Bordier visited Mexico’s National Autonomous University (UNAM) and presented the research progress in a professional journal. Bordier died in 2005, one year before Cuba's Industrial Property Office gave Labiofam the rights to exploit the patent related to the venom.‎ ‎32. How are the scorpions dealt with after their venom has been taken for two years?‎ A. Their bodies are used to make medicines.‎ B. They are bred in the laboratory for research.‎ C. They are raised to give birth to the offspring.‎ D. They are set free into their natural habitat.‎ ‎33. What can we infer from the passage about the research on scorpions?‎ A. The UN provided fund for the research team.‎ B. There is still much to study in detail.‎ C. The achievements will benefit animals.‎ D. Many scientists doubt about the result of the research.‎ ‎34. What can we learn about Bordier in the last paragraph?‎ A. He was given the rights to exploit the patent.‎ B. He began his research at the beginning of the twenty-first century.‎ C. He put forward the research progress in a professional journal.‎ D. He was a peasant who told the stories about the venom’s benefits.‎ ‎35. What does this passage mainly talk about?‎ A. The various uses of scorpions in Cuba.‎ B. Cuban biologists’ research on strange diseases.‎ C. Suitable conditions for Cuban scorpions to breed.‎ D. Cuban scorpion venom’s effect on fighting cancer.‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）‎ ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Playing a musical instrument can be a fun and rewarding hobby. It’s a good way to express feelings and develop confidence in your abilities. _36_ Here are a few questions to help you decide.‎ What kind of music do you like?‎ What you are interested in will encourage you to play. _37_ Traditional orchestra musical instruments are what you hear in classical music. Modem music calls for modem instruments, like electric guitars.‎ Where are you going to practice?‎ ‎_38_ Think about where and when you are going to practice, as well as the patience of the people you live with or near. Some instruments like the guitar give you the chance of playing in the night using earphones, while your housemates sleep in peace. Also, you may need to consider going to a school or a music center to practice.‎ ‎_39_‎ This is quite a big problem. A lot of instruments can be bought in different price ranges. But this doesn’t change the fact that many instruments, such as the piano, are always expensive. If you can’t afford your chosen instrument，will you be able to borrow someone else’s?‎ Are there any physical limitations?‎ If you are small and don’t like lifting heavy objects，you won’t want to carry around a cello (大提琴).
