Often the former students of the school will come back to watch the big game, so the name "homecoming".‎ ‎ Homecoming festivities usually start with Spirit Week. These are days when teachers and students can come to school dressed up in a fun costume to fit in with the theme of the day.

The 63-year-old still has lots of “mothering skills" that she's actually more than happy to rent out through a unique service called "Need A Mom". Her motto is "When you need a mom---Just not YOUR mom. "‎ ‎ A former theatrical producer and drug-rehab (戒毒) adviser from Connecticut, Nina now ‎ spends all her time using her motherhood experience and her associate degree in helping individuals in New York.

"They go into almost a young middle age. Here, it's a more dramatically artistic lifestyle. " But more freedom also leads to more problems, and Nina often found herself giving advice to young men who reached out to her in yoga studios and cafes.‎ ‎ "As I started to live in the neighborhood, do yoga and frequent coffee shops, I've noticed that a lot of young people in the neighborhood wanted to talk to me about what was going on in their lives," he told Bushwick Daily. Like this one man who was upset over losing a job and ended up pouring his heart out to Nina over a cup of coffee. She ended up rewriting his resume (简历) .

What difference has it made, statistically speaking?‎ ‎400 million births prevented The one-child policy, officially in place since 1979, has prevented 400 million births. Parents have faced fines and other punishments for having more children.‎ The majority of the decrease in China’s fertility rate happened in the 1970s. It dropped from 5.8 children per woman in 1970 to 2.7 in 1978.‎ ‎ Despite the one-child policy the rate had only fallen to 1.7 by 2013.‎ ‎21:28-baby deaths rate Since the one-child policy was introduced, baby girls have become more likely to die than boys.‎ In the 1970s, according to the United Nations, 60 males per 1, 000 live births died under the age of one. For girls the figure was 53. In the 1980s, after the one-child policy became official, the rate for both was 36. By the 1990s, 26 males per 1,000 live births died before the age of one - and 33 girls. The 2000s saw 21 boys per 1,000 live births dying and 28 girls.‎ ‎1.16 boys born for every girl Sexually selective abortions have been considered as a major cause of China's unusual imbalance.‎ Gietel-Basten, associate professor in social policy at Oxford University, says the births of many girls are not registered if parents have broken the rule by having two children, adding officials often turn a blind eye. It's estimated there are now 33 million more men than women in China.‎ ‎4: 2: 1 families With the ageing of China's population and the continuation of the one-child policy, a “4: 2 :1” home is the description given to households in which there are four grandparent, cared for by two working age parents, who themselves have one child.‎ By 2050, it’s predicted that a quarter of China's population will be 65 or ‎ older. The predicted decline in the number of people of working age is thought to have persuaded the government to drop the one-child policy.‎ ‎21. When was the baby deaths rate for both boys and girls equal?‎ A. In the 1970s. B. In the 1980s. C. In the 1990s. D. In the 2000s ‎22.

Mathilda's school, like most schools in the area, doesn't have access to clean water and sanitation facilities for its students. So instead of spending their whole school day learning, Mathilda and her classmates start their day by spending two hours to the closest river fetching water ---water that is anyway most likely not safe to drink. They do the same thing again in the afternoon, so they often lose around half of their school day fetching water.‎ Mathilda has to do the same thing outside of school hours to get the water her family needs at home, leaving her little time for studying.‎ ‎ Because of rising temperatures, water has become harder and harder to find here, and people have to spend more and more time trying to find it.‎ This is just one small example of how climate change is making it harder to realize people’s rights to water, education and security. Unfortunately, most higher-income countries remained silent on the issue.‎ This is despite studies showing that communities already facing marginalization(边缘化),such as women and children, mostly suffer from climate change. This is especially the case for those in countries with limited resources and fragile ecosystems.‎ Meanwhile, women consist of the majority of the world 's poor，and so are more dependent for their livelihood on natural resources that are threatened by climate change. And around the world, women and girls are the most likely to be responsible for fetching water for their families.‎ This exposes them to danger and leaves them with less time to attend school, earn money, or simply to rest. But the fact is that the effects of climate change will be felt globally.‎ Despite the difficulties she is facing, trying to get an education, Mathilda says she hopes to serve her community in a leadership role when she grows up.‎ ‎“All of the world's leaders need to work together to solve this problem that we are all facing,” she said.‎ ‎24. Mathilda has to spend _______fetching water every school day.‎ A. two hours B. four hours C. more than four hours D. almost a whole day ‎25. The first two paragraphs are intended to tell us____________.‎ A. the cause and effect of lack of water ‎ B. one serious consequence of climate change C. the difficulties in fetching water in the semiarid region D. the hardship of life for the people in the semiarid region ‎26. We can conclude from the passage that________________.‎ A. climate change is everyone's business B. water is becoming rare because of rising temperatures C. fetching water takes up Mathilda's half of studying time D. females are more responsible for fetching water for their families ‎27. The passage is mainly about the problem caused by_______________.‎ A. rising temperatures B. fetching water C. climate change D. water shortage ‎【七】‎ I walked up to the counter. Behind it was a lady with glasses on the tip of her nose and gray hair on her head.‎ ‎“Excuse me,” I said. She looked up. “You’re that Clements kid,” she said. “I’ m Miss Bee. Come closer and let me get a look at you.” She pushed her glasses up her nose. “I can describe you to the police if ‎ something goes missing from the store.”‎ ‎“I’ m not a thief!” I was shocked. I was seven too young to be a thief!‎ ‎“From what I can see you’re not much of anything. But I can tell you’ve got potential.” She went back to reading her newspaper.‎ ‎“I need to get these.” I said, holding up my list. “So? Go get them.” Miss Bee pointed to a sign on the screen door. “I’m not your servant, so I suggest you get yourself a basket and start filling.”‎ I visited Miss Bee several times a week that summer. Sometimes she short-changed me. Other times she overcharged. “That can of beans is only twenty nine cents” I corrected her one afternoon. I had watched the numbers change on the cash register closely, and Miss Bee had added 35 cents. She didn't seem embarrassed. She just looked at me over her glasses and fixed the price.‎ But she ever let me declare victory. All summer long she found ways to play tricks on me. No sooner had I learned how to pronounce bicarbonate of soda(小苏打) and memorized its location on the shelf than Miss Bee rearranged the shelve and made me hunt for it all over again.‎ One day before I left, she said, “I know what you think of me, but I don't care! Each of us is put on this earth for a reason. I believe my job is to teach every child I meet life lessons. When you get older you'll be glad our paths crossed!” Glad I met Miss Bee？Ha! The idea was absurd…‎ Until one day my daughter asked me to finish her math problems. “If I ‎ do it for you how will you ever learn to do it yourself?” I said. Suddenly, I remembered the lady Miss Bee.‎ ‎28. The girl felt __________ when Miss Bee implied she could be a thief.‎ A. surprised B. shocked C. puzzled D. annoyed ‎29. We can infer from Paragraph 6 that Miss Bee ______________.‎ A .showed no care about her mistakes B. made the girl learn to double-check C. was always playing tricks on the girl D. was careless and dishonest to do business ‎30. It can be learned from the passage that Miss Bee ______________.‎ A. knew her job was to help every child she met ‎ ‎ B. asked the girl to shop by herself to test her honesty C. taught the girl many lessons but she didn't understand D. rearranged the shelves to teach the girl to be changeable ‎31. Which is NOT the lesson the writer learnt from shopping?‎ A Treat others kindly and politely. B. Don’t be so quick to judge others.‎ C. The best teachers aren’t only in school. D. Try our best though the task seems beyond us.‎ ‎【八】‎ A new graph has revealed exactly how long you’11 need to sweat it out in the gym to neutralize (抵消) swallowing a favorite fast food.‎ While eating fried chicken, pizza and burgers will all entail a gym session of over an hour doing cardio(有氧运动)or lifting weights, women have it far harder than men and must work extra hard to banish calorie-packed meals.‎ After a classic McDonald's favorite, the Big Mac, men would need to do 42 minutes of cardio or 57 minutes of weightlifting.‎ As for women, fifty one minutes of cardio would help counter the 24 grams of fat in a Big Mac---over a quarter of the recommended daily allowance - --or an hour and eight minutes of weightlifting.‎ However, the 450g Tesco chocolate cake was by far the worst offender. Clocking in at a whopping 1,710 calories and 90 grams of fat, only a hardcore gym session is going to shift the calories you’ve absorbed from this dessert. The average woman would have to lift weights for almost four hours to work off the calories in this cake.‎ Comparatively a chocolate bar seems healthy, with 237 calories which would take 25 minutes for the average woman to run off. Alternatively you could spend thirty three minutes doing weightlifting exercises.‎ Men will have to complete 40 minutes of cardio and 53 minutes of weightlifting while women will have to complete 48 minutes of cardio and 64 minutes of weightlifting against the calories in French fries.‎ ‎32. The fat of the recommended daily allowance for women is _________grams.‎ ‎ A .18 B. 20 C. 24 D. 30‎ ‎33. According to the passage, __________is the unhealthiest food.‎ A. French fries B. the Big Mac C. a chocolate bar D. Tesco chocolate cake ‎31. Compared with men, women must spend ________to consume the calories in French fries.‎ ‎ A. 11 more minutes lifting weights B. 8 less minutes doing cardio C. 8 more minutes lifting weights D. 11 less minutes doing cardio ‎ 35. The main purpose of the passage is to___________.‎ A. inform us to stay away from fast food B. offer us advice on how to keep healthy C. tell us some information about fast food D. suggest what we do to work off the calories ‎【九】‎ When you're on the go, your best friend and resource can be your phone.

In his high school years, he was considered one of top students in the classics, before moving into the arts, sciences, and literature, again picking up high marks and receiving academic praise. It earned him admission to Harvard University.‎ ‎ As a rebellious yet relatively quiet student, he created a website called Facemash in the university– an instantly controversial website that ‎ encouraged students to rate each other based on appearance.‎ ‎ The site was controversial for several reasons. The first was its illegal use of photographs, which the university and students took issue with. The second was its controversial nature – not every student like being ranked based on their appearance. The third was its huge resource use – while it was hosted on Harvard servers, it was the most popular page in the university’s entire network.‎ ‎ Zuckerberg was soon forced to shut the site down, but its popularity and controversy had made him consider its future potential. He soon turned the simple site into a personal one for Harvard students, encouraging them to network with their peers at the college. It was then, together with his two friends, that they launched “The Facebook”, which immediately spread to other colleges and grew into a public service that anyone could access in the United States, whether to network with friends and family, or to play games.‎ ‎ The company has been criticized frequently, nevertheless, Zuckerberg has remained true to his initial vision – to create a website that the entire world can use to communicate openly and easily with one another and to keep the user experience clean and pure. The end result is one of the world’s biggest online businesses.‎ ‎ Although its true value is debatable, it’s safe to say that Facebook, and its creator Mark Zuckerberg, are two of the twenty-first century’‎ s most influential, controversial, and potentially powerful figures.            ‎ ‎24. When Mark Zuckerberg was a student, he_____________________.‎ ‎ A. was often praised by teachers for the website he created ‎ B. had good academic performance ‎ C. alone created a website called Facebook ‎ ‎ D. encouraged students to set up business like him ‎25. The reason why Zuckerberg shut the site down was probably that__________.‎ ‎ A. his website was not popular ‎ ‎ B. he was doubted for the way he used photographs ‎ ‎ C. he needed time to reconsider his choice ‎ D. he stole resource on Harvard server ‎26.Which words can best describe Zuckerberg?‎ A. easy-going and smart. B. quiet and shy.‎ C. talented and outgoing. D. rebellious and creative.‎ ‎27. The best title of the passage should be________________.‎ ‎ A. Mark Zuckerberg and his Facebook B.
