Over her bald head, she wore a pink hat that matched her clothes. But the third grader’s cheery dressing didn’t mask her pain and weary eyes. Then a visitor showed up. “Do you want to write a song?” asked Anita Kruse, 49, rolling a cart equipped with an electronic keyboard, a microphone and speakers. Simran stared. “Have you ever written a poem?” Anita Kruse continued. “Well, yes,” Simran said. Within minutes, Simran was reading her poem into the microphone“Some bird soaring through the sky,” she said softly. “Imagination in its head…” Anita Kruse added piano music, a few warbling (鸣,唱) birds, and finally the girl’s voice. Thirty minutes later, she presented Simran with a CD of her first recorded song. That was the beginning of Anita Kruse’s project, Purple Songs Can Fly, one that has helped more than 125 young patients write and record songs. As a composer and pianist who had performed at the hospital, Kruse said that the idea of how she could help “came in one flash”. The effect on the kids has been great. One teenage girl, curling (蜷缩) in pain in her wheelchair, stood unaided to dance to a hip-hop song she had written. A 12-year-old boy with Hodgkin’s disease who rarely spoke surprised his doctors with a song he called I Can Make It. “My time with the kids is heartbreaking because of the severity of their illnesses,” says Anita Kruse. “But they also make you happy, when the children are smiling, excited to share their CD with their families.” Simran is now an active sixth grader and cancer-free. From time to time, she and her mother listen to her song, Always Remembering, and they always remember the “really sweet and nice and loving” lady who gave them a shining moment in the dark hour. 1．Simran Jatar lay in bed in hospital because ______.

Your future begins here. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 3 However, you will find college life is different from your previous school environment. Many of us can be easily overwhelmed(压垮) by the details of running a well-balanced life. While some of us may have the know-how, I guess there are more of us who can benefit from learning about the experiences of other who have walked the college halls before you. The following you may find of use about life on campus. 1. Plan well. There are so many new things to do at a new college or university, social and academic(学术的). Give yourself time to make new friends and become familiar with the campus, but don’t forget why you are there. Give some time for social activities and manage your time wisely. 2. If you don’t have a “system” for planning your time now (like a day time, a computer date book), get one. Most of all, don’t depend on your memory. 3. Don’t miss the guidelines, restrictions, rules and regulations of all kinds can usually be found in your student handbook. Consider them well-balanced food for thought. What dates are important? What pieces of paper need to be handed in? What can/can’t you do in your student residence(住处)? Who has authority for what? What do you need to complete to graduate? 4. Write the word “STUDY” on the walls of our bedroom and bathroom, and maybe it will help to write it on a piece of paper and stick it on the telephone, TV and the kitchen table. Consider this – you are paying thousands of dollars for courses. You pay every time you have to repeat or replace a course. 1. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To offer advice on college life. B. To explain why college life is exciting. C. To describe the importance of college life. D. To persuade you to go to college ] 2. From the passage, we can know . A. one will have more freedom at college B. one will make more friends at college C. one prepares for one’s future career and life at college D. professors at college will provide you with many new ideas 3.

One of the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third-graders. Those with TVs in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedroom TVs. A second study ,looking at nearly 1000 grown-ups in New Zealand, found lower education levels among 26-year –olds who had watched lots of TV during childhood. But the results don't prove that TV is the cause and don't ride out that already poorly motivated youngsters (年轻人)may watch lots of TV. Their study measured the TV habits of 26-year-olds between ages5 and 15. These with college degrees had watch an average of less than two hours of TV per week night during childhood, compared with an average of more than 2 1/2 hours for those who had no education beyond high school. In the California study, children with TVs in their rooms but no computer at home scored the lowest while those with no bedroom TV but who had home computers scored the highest. While this study does not prove that bedroom TV sets caused the lower scores, it adds to accumulating findings that children shouldn't have TVs in their bedrooms. ( ) 1. According to the California study, the low-scoring group might _________. A. have watched a lot of TV B. not be interested ted in math C. be unable to go to college D. have had computers in their bedrooms ( ) 2. What is the researchers' understanding of the New Zealand study results? A. Poorly motivated 26-year-olds watch more TV. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 5 B. Habits of TV watching reduce learning interest. C. TV watching leads to lower education levels of the 15-year-olds. D. The connection between TV and education levels is difficult to explain ( ) 3. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A. More time should be spent on computers. B. Children should be forbidden from watching TV. C. 'IV sets shouldn't be allowed in children's bedrooms. D. Further studies on high-achieving students should be done. ( ) 4. What would be the best title for this text? A. Computers or Television B. Effects of Television on Children C. Studies on TV and College Education D. Television and Children's Learning Habits 1. A.细节理解题.根据第二段中 Those with TVs in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedroom TVs.可得出答案. 2. D. 细节理解题. 根据第三段 But the results don' prove that TV is the cause and don't ride t out that already poorly motivated youngsters (年轻人)may watch lots of TV.可以确定答案. 3. C.推理判断题.注意最后一段开头的 while 是"尽管"的意思,所以这两段都是围绕儿 童卧室不应该放电 视机的问题. 4. B.主旨大意题.通读全文可知,文章主要通过两项研究分析了儿童看电视所造成的 影响.文章第一段第一 句话是主题句,所以 B 项作为标题是最佳的。 阅读理解。请阅读下列短文,从每题 所给的四个选项(A,B,C 和 D)中,选出最佳选项。 One morning more than thirty years ago, I entered the Track Kitchen, a restaurant where everyone from the humblest(卑微的) to the most powerful came for breakfast.
