At the end of 2014, Tulsa, Oklahoma, sixth?grade teacher Melissa Bour received a friend ____ on Facebook from one of her students. She didn’t accept the request, but a quick browse through the girl’s friends list revealed the names of dozens of kids from her ____. Many of the students’ Facebook pages were completely ____, meaning even strangers could ____ the kids’ personal photos and messages.

“I saw middle fingers, students dressed inappropriately, and extremely ____ language,” Melissa says. “It was ____.” When she brought up her ____ in class, the students were not ____ at all. So she created a ____ of her own. With a bright green marker pen, she wrote on a piece of paper: “Dear Facebook: my 12?year?old students think it is ‘no ____’ that they are posting pictures of themselves... Please help me show them how ____ their images can get around.” She put a picture of the letter on her Facebook page and asked people to ____ it.

In hours, it was shared 108,000 times across dozens of states and four countries. She ____ it after eight hours, but it continued to spread. “I wanted to ____ them that it’s on the Internet forever,” she says.

As she explained the results of her ____ in class, the students’ eyes got bigger and bigger. “It scared a few of them into deleting their pages ____,” she says. Others have removed inappropriate posts and used privacy settings to ____ their pages.

Her ____ wasn’t to scare them off social media but to push them to be ____ of what they post. Melissa says, “I tell them, ‘It doesn’t ____ you have to just because everyone else is sharing.’”

One day, I received a call from a colleague. He was about to give a student a zero for his answer to a physical problem, while the student claimed a perfect score. I was elected as their arbiter(仲裁人). I read the examination problem: “Show how it is possible to determine the height of a tall building with the aid of a barometer(氣壓計(jì)). ”The student had answered; "Take the barometer to the top of the building, attach a long rope to it, lower it to the street, and then bring it up, measuring the length of the rope. The length of it is the height of the building.”

The student had really answered the question completely, but the answer didn't confirm his competence in physics. I suggested the student try again. I gave him six minutes to answer the question, warning that the answer should show some knowledge of physics. Five minutes later, he said he had many answers and dashed off one, which read:“Take the barometer to the top of the building and lean over the edge of the roof. Drop the barometer, timing its fall with a stopwatch. Then, use the physical formula(公式)to calculate the height of the building.”

At this point, my colleague had to accept it, and then the student made almost full marks. I couldn't help asking the student what the other answers were. He listed many others, and then added, "Probably the best is to take the barometer to the administrator and said to him, ‘Sir, here is a fine barometer. If you tell me the height of the building, I will give it to you.”,

Then, I asked the student if he really did not know the conventional answer to this question. He admitted that he did, but said that he was fed up with high school and college instructors trying to teach him how to think.

The name of the student was Bohr who later was famous all over the world. He won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1922.

1.The student got a zero at the beginning because _____.

A. the teacher wasn't satisfied with him

B. his answer wasn't complete or correct

C. the teacher didn't fully understand his answer

D. his answer didn't show his knowledge of physics

2.We know from the passage that _____.

A. the student knew the expected answer

B. the administrator told Bohr the height

C. the author preferred Bohr's last answer

D. the teacher was a very stubborn person

3.We can learn from the passage that _____.

A. instructors can teach students how to think

B. arbiters can help students to get high scores

C. students should be given more freedom in thinking

D. teachers should make students use physical formulas

4.What was Bohr's attitude toward his schooling?

A. Optimistic B. Critical C. Approving D. Neutral

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。

Many people think of guys as being carefree when it comes to their appearance. But in fact, a lot of guys spend plenty of time in front of the mirror. They care just as much as girls do about their body image.

Body image is a person's opinions and feelings about his or her own body and physical appearance. 1. You appreciate your body for its capabilities and accept its imperfections.

2. Here are some ideas.

Recognize your strengths. Different body types are good for different things. What does your body do well in? Maybe your speed, strength, or coordination makes you better than others at a certain sport. That may be basketball, table tennis, mountain biking, dancing, or even running. Or perhaps you have non-sports skills, like drawing, painting, singing, playing a musical instrument, writing, or acting. 3.

Exercise regularly. Exercise can help you look good and feel good about yourself. Good physiques (體形) don't just happen. 4. A healthy habit can be as simple as exercising twenty minutes to one hour three days a week. Workouts can also lift your spirits.

Respect your body! Practicing good habits—regular showering; taking care of your teeth, hair, and skin; wearing clean clothes, and so on—can help you build a positive body image.

5. Your body is just one part of who you are. Your talent for comedy, a quick wit (智慧), and all the other things make you unique. So try not to let small imperfections take over.

A. Use this as an opportunity to discover what you're good at.

B. Be yourself.

C. Having a positive body image means feeling satisfied with the way you look.

D. Just explore talents that you feel good about.

E. They take hard work, regular workouts, and a healthy diet.

F. The good news is that self-image and body image can be changed.

G. So, what can you do to develop a positive body image?

Part III Reading Comprehension (30 marks)

Directions: Read the following three passages, Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A, B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.

A

Humans aren’t the only ones getting a buzz from coffee. Caffeine can improve memory among honeybees and lead to better pollination(授粉). According to a recent study published in the journal Science.

The study was conducted by a team of researchers at Newcastle University in the United Kingdom. They found that the nectar(花蜜) of some flowers, such as those from grapefruit and lemon plants, as well as certain coffee flowers, contains low doses of caffeine. To get bees to feed on these flowers, the team trained the insects to associate food with the smell of the flowers. They also trained another group of bees to feed on nectar from flowers that were sweetened with a sugar, but did not contain caffeine. After 24 hours, the bees trained on caffeinated flowers returned to these plants three times as often as those trained on the sweetened flowers returned to the uncaffeinated plants.

Professor Geraldine Wright led the researchers. “Remembering floral traits (花部特征) is difficult for bees to perform at a fast pace as they fly from flower to flower and we found that caffeine helps the bee remember where the flowers are,” Wright said in a statement.

Improved memory led to the better pollination. That’s because once bees sip the caffeine nectar, they continue to look for more coffee plants to pollinate. This also suggests that caffeine plays a role in improving the bees’ ability to search for food.

Researchers found that caffeine’s effect on the bee brain is similar to its effect on mammals. “The change is similar to that produced by caffeine in neurons (神經(jīng)元)”associated with learning and memory in the rat brain,” Wright said.

Bee populations have declining since 2007. The dramatic drop in the insects’ numbers has serious effects for ecosystems and the farming industry. Bees are needed in the reproduction of crops and spreading wild flower species. Understanding what keeps bees buzzing could help to make sure that the insects are able to remember and pollinate their favorite flowers.

1.Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?

A. Caffeine has no effect on the rat brain.

B. Bee population has been increasing.

C. The nectar of lemon plants contains caffeine.

D. Bees dislike nectar from sweetened flowers.

2.After reading the passage, John, who works in the farming industry, will probably feel ________.

A. annoyed B. angry C. nervous D. excited

3.Which of the following relationship is correct according to the passage?

A. improved memory — caffeine nectar — better pollination

B. caffeine nectar — improved memory — better pollination

C. improved memory — better pollination — caffeine nectar

D. caffeine nectar — better pollination — improved memory

4.We can know from the passage that ________.

A. the rat is a mammal

B. caffeine has nothing to do with memory

C. bees are good at remembering floral traits

D. Geraldine Wright did the research on his own

5. What section of a newspaper may this passage be taken from?

A. Science B. Education

C. Culture D. Sports
