Most students are always told to study hard so that they can live a wonderful life. However, many of the students have tried very hard at school but have failed their exams. These students feel sad, and they don't want to go to school anymore. They easily become dropouts  (辍学者).‎ Such students may join the groups of trouble-makers and turn to crime. Though most Japanese parents are worried about their children, they do not help them in any way. Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and it is the teachers' job to help their children. A lot of parents also send their children to other schools in evenings or on weekends, but these only help the students to pass their exams and never teach the students how to understand life and the world. Many Japanese schools usually have rules about everything, from the students' hair to their clothes and the things in their schoolbags. Many child psychologists now think that the rules are too strict and harmful to the feelings of the students. Almost 40% of the students said that no one had taught them how to get on with others, how to tell right from wrong, or how to show love for others, even for their parents.‎ 1.

While she was resting and drying herself in the grass, she heard a man come near. He was walking along barefooted with a gun in his hand. As soon as he saw the dove, he wished to kill it.

The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.‎ ‎ In the United Kingdom, about one in ten people have some disability. Disability is not just something that happens to other people. As we get older, many of us will become less mobile (可动的) , hard of hearing or have failing eyesight.‎ Disablement can take many forms and happen at any time of life. Some people are born with disabilities. Many others become disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases. The longer time goes on, the worse they become. Some people are disabled in accidents. Many others may have disability in the form of a mental illness. All are affected by people’s attitude towards them.‎ Disabled people face many physical barriers. Next time you go shopping or to work or visit friends, imagine what would you do if you could not get up steps, or on to buses and trains. What would you do if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic? But there are other barriers: prejudice(偏见)can be even harder to break down and ignorance (无知) represents by far the greatest barrier of all. It is almost impossible for the able-bodied to fully understand what the disabled go through, so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person and their ability, not their disability, which counts.‎ ‎12. The key word in Paragraph 4 is ___________.‎ A. ignorance B. barriers C. disability D. prejudice ‎13. The last word of the passage “counts” most probably means ___________.‎ A.

It can be concluded（推断）from the passage that ___________.‎ A．we should try our best to prevent disablement B．we must take a proper attitude towards the disabled C．the able-bodied people will never fully understand the disabled D．both physical and mental barriers are hard to break down 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。选项中的两项为多余选项。‎ 注意：请将该题答案转涂到答题卡71—75对应位置，16—20不再填涂。‎ ‎ Maybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here’s how:‎ Plan your time carefully. When planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. (16)____ A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you realize what is happening to your time.‎ ‎(17)____ Look around the house for a good study area.

If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you’ll remember it longer.‎ ‎(19)_____The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject.‎ ‎ They help you remember your new knowledge.
