Au To: (happylizijun) yaboo. com. cn Subject: My school Hi, Li Zijun,‎ Thanks very much for your email. I really enjoyed reading it. I think we have a lot in common. I wonder if our school life is similar too.‎ I go to a big high school in Sydney called Maylands High School. There are about 1000 students and 80 or so teachers. My class has 25 students in it, which is normal for a Year 11 class. In the junior school there are about 30 students in a class.‎ In the senior high school we have lots of subjects to choose from, like maths, physics, chemistry, biology, history, German, law, geography, software design, graphic arts and media studies. (Different schools sometime have different optional subjects.) English is a must for everyone and we have to do least three other subjects ‎ in Year 11 and 12. At the end of Year 12 we sit for a public exam called the High School Certificate.‎ As well as school subjects, most of us do other activities at school such as playing a sport, singing in the choir or playing in the school band. We can also belong to clubs, such as the drama club, the chess club and the debating society.‎ We have a lot of homework to do in senior school to prepare for our exam, so unless I have basketball practice, I usually go straight home and start studying. I arrive home about 4 pm, make myself a snack and work till 6. Then I help the family to make dinner and we all eat together. I’m usually back in my room studying by 8 pm. I stop at about 10 o’clock and watch TV or read a book for half an hour to relax. On Saturdays, I usually go out with my family or with friends and I sleep in till late on Sunday morning. Then it’s back to the books on Sunday afternoon.‎ How about you? What’s your school life like? Do you have a lot of homework? What do you do to relax when you’re not studying? I’m looking forward to finding out.‎ Your Australian friend Terrie ‎21. How many subjects do the students have to do at least in Year 11 and 12?‎ A. 11 B. 3 C. 4 D. 6‎ ‎22.

On Sunday afternoon, Terri usually______.‎ A. read books B. play in the school band ‎ C. play basketball D. helps her family to prepare dinner B Your next car might drive itself.After years of trials on city streets,driverless vehicles are now on the way.Last month,a driverless bus began carrying passengers through Lyon,France.Most in the automobile industry think ‎ self-driving vehicles will be on the road by 2020 or earlier.‎ Driverless cars will first be huddled with human-driven cars.But the first places where they will become dominant（统治的）are highly populated urban areas.Many advanced cities are already reducing the role of human-driven cars.Driverless cars will quicken that process and will bring us enormous benefits.‎ Driverless cars will reduce accidents by around 90 percent.That's big—the annual deaths on the world's roads are about 1.2 million a year.Pollution and carbon emissions will drop,because urban driverless cars will be electric.‎ On the other hand,driverless cars will cause problems.Over the next 20 years,the mostly low-skilled men who now drive trucks,taxis and buses will see their jobs reduced.Traditional carmakers are especially scared.The cars of the future might be made by tech companies such as Apple,Baidu and Google.Imagine Germany,where automobile making is the largest industry.‎ Dramatic changes are coming,and driverless cars could arrive by 2020.But governments have barely begun thinking about it.Only 6 percent of the biggest US cities have taken them into their long-term planning.A decade ago anyone hardly saw the Smartphone coming.Now what about the driverless cars?‎ ‎24.The underlined phrase "be huddled with" in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning with " ".‎ A.turn up B.make up for C.exist together D.take over ‎25.Driverless cars can reduce pollution and carbon emissions because .‎ A.they will reduce the number of cars B.they will be powered by electricity C.they will be energy-saving by driving themselves D.they will avoid many accidents from human errors ‎26.What's the author's attitude toward driverless cars?‎ A.Doubtful. B.Disappointed. C.Negative. D.Objective.‎ ‎27.What can we conclude from the passage?‎ A.Driverless cars will not hit the road until 2020.‎ B.Old auto industry will benefit from driverless cars.‎ C.Governments are unprepared for the arrival of driverless cars.‎ D.Driverless cars will make road accidents a past thing.‎ C Derek Rabclo is not the only surfer to conquer Hawaii' s famous Pipeline big wave break, but while all others use their sight to do it, this young professional surfer must rely only on his other senses. That's because he is completely blind.‎ ‎     When Derek was born, over 24 years ago, he got his name from Derek Ho, the first Hawaiian surfing world champion. A surfing enthusiast himself, Emesto dreamed that his son would share the talent of his uncle, a professional surfer. Unfortunately, Derek was born completely blind, but this didn't slop his family from believing lhat he could do anything he wanted, even if that meant becoming a surfer.‎ ‎    At age 2, Derek received a bodyboard and the beaches of Guarapari, Brazil, became his backyard. He was always comfortable in the water and surfing was in his blood, but he didn’t actually try riding a wave until he turned 17, when his father bought him a surfboard. His father taught him the basics and encouraged him to keep practicing, but after successfully standing up on the surfboard, Derek knew he needed to become much better if he was going to achieve Emesto's dream and become a professional surfer. So he joined the Praia do Moroo surf  school, where he studied under coach Fabio Maru.‎ ‎     Standing up on a surfboard and conquering small waves is one thing, while gathering the courage to take on Hawaii's board-breaking Pipeline is another. But that’s exactly what Derek Rabelo set out to do just months after learning how to surf. Everyone told him it was too dangerous, but he felt he could do it. And he did, earning the praise of famous professional surfers like Kelly Slater and Mick Fanning. Now 24, Rabelo has been surfing the Pipeline every winter since.‎ ‎28. What does the first paragraph tell us?‎ A. Good eyesight is necessary for becoming good suffers.‎ B. Nobody has ever conquered Hawaii’s big wave break.‎ C. Derek Rabelo dreams to conquer Hawaii's big wave break.‎ D. Derek Rabelo is the only blind professional surfer to conquer Hawaii’s big wave break.‎ ‎29. How did Ernesto behave after Derek was born?‎ A. He named him after his uncle. B. He never lost confidence in him.‎ C. He sent him to a surfing champion. D. He started his own interest in surfing.‎ ‎30. After Derek was able to stand up on the surfboard, he_______________ .‎ A. began to try riding a wave B. was no longer afraid of water C. realized he still had a long way to go D. knew his father’s dream had come true ‎31. Which of the following words can best describe Derek according to the last paragraph?‎ A. Brave and confident.   B. Skillful but proud.  C. Thoughtful and modest.  D. Courageous but stubborn.‎ D ‎ There is an English saying that says, “Let Sleeping Dogs Lie.” It means not bringing up an old problem. Researchers in Hungary have found another reason to let dogs keep on sleeping. It seems the animals are learning while they sleep.‎ ‎ The Hungarian researchers placed tools on the dogs’ heads to know about electrical activity in the brain. The brain activity, called sleep spindles(梭状波), takes place in human begins, and has been connected with learning. The researchers hope to understand how the dogs’ ability to learn and remember changes as they get older. The study may help them understand how human brains change as we age.‎ ‎ The researchers found differences between male and female dogs. Iotchey, a researcher, says the females appeared much better at learning new things. Female ‎ dogs have about twice as many spindles per minute as male dogs, they also happen to be the better learners, and they memorize the task much better. But it was harder for all the older dogs to remember things, especially when several things were happening at the same time.‎ ‎ DoraSzabo also studies sleep spindles. Szabo is a neuroscientist in a university in Budapest. She says the older dogs have fewer spindles and are easily cheated. “If you first hide the reward into one bowl, then in another and in another, they get lost after a while. So their performance is going down, and they are getting poor in solving new problems.”‎ ‎ Researchers hope the study will not only help understanding of learning ability and memory changes in dogs, but also the aging of humans. Senior Researcher EnikoKubinyi adds that the aging dogs suffer from the same problems as humans who are aging. “Among very old dogs, up to two thirds of them show signs of dementia (痴呆), and this dementia is really very similar to that of humans, so we could use dog as a natural model of human aging.”‎ ‎32. Why do researchers study dogs’ sleep?‎ ‎ A. To help the dogs sleep well B. To study dogs’ sleeping activity ‎ C. To control dogs’ learning ability D. To know more about human brains ‎33. What is the relationship between the number of sleep spindles and dogs’ learning ability?‎ A. They have nothing to do with each other B. Dogs with less spindles have better learning ability C. Dogs with more spindles have better learning ability D. Dogs’ learning ability is totally decided by spindle number ‎34. What can we know about old dogs in Paragraph 4?‎ ‎ A. They are easy to play jokes on B. They can finish tasks one after another ‎ C. They are good at solving new problems D. Their memories are not so good as before ‎35. Which is the best title for the text?‎ ‎ A. What we can do to let dogs sleep B. What we can learn by watching sleeping dogs ‎ C. What the saying “Let Sleeping Dogs Lie” means D. What is the difference between humans and dogs 第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容,从短文后的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。 ‎ How to Help Children Learn From Their Mistakes Everyone makes mistakes. 36 As parents, it’s our duty to help our children learn from their mistakes.
