Too many people want others to be friends, but they don’t give friendship back. That is why some friendships don’t last long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous; be understanding.
Honesty is where a good friend starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you do not tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest, you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always count on one another to speak and act honestly.
Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You do not have to give your lunch money or your clothes of course. Instead you have to learn how to share things you enjoy, like your hobbies and your interests. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend know better.
Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with a problem. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be the first step in solving the problem. So a friend must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend’s place so you can understand the problem better.
No two friendships are ever exactly alike. But true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friends, you must practice honesty, generosity, and understanding.

Every human being,  36 what he is doing, gives off body heat. The usual problem is  37 dispose of it.

Some plants get so hungry they eat flies, spiders, and even small frogs. What’s more amazing is that these plants occur naturally (in special environment) in every state. In fact, they’re found on every continent except Antarctica.
You’ve probably seen a Venus’ flytrap. It’s often sold in museum gift stores, department stores, and even supermarkets. A small plant, it grows 6 to 8 inches tall in a container. At the end of its stalks（莖）are specially modified leaves that act like traps. Inside each trap is a lining of tiny trigger(觸發(fā)) hairs. When an insect lands on them, the trap suddenly shut. Over the course of a week or so, the plant feeds on its catch.
The Venus’ flytrap is just one of more than 500 species of meat-eating plants, says Barry Meyers-Rice, the editor of the International Carnivorous Plant Society’s Newsletter. Note: Despite any science –fiction stories you might have read, no meat-eating plant does any danger to humans.
Dr. Meyers-Rice says a plant is meat-eating, only if it does all four of the following: “attract, kill, digest, and absorb” some forms of insects, including flies, butterflies, and moths. Meat-eating plants look and act like other green plants ---well, most of the time.
All green plants make sugar through a process called photosynthesis(光合作用). Plants use the sugar to make food. What makes “meat-eating” plants different is their bug-catching leaves. They need insects for one reason: nitrogen(氮). Nitrogen is a nutrient that they can’t obtain any other way. Why almost all green plants on our planet get nitrogen from the soil “Meat-eating” plants can’t. They live in places where nutrients are hard or almost impossible to get from the soil because of its acidity(酸度). So they’ve come to rely on getting nitrogen from insects and small animals. In fact, nutrient-rich soil is poisonous to “meat-eating” plants. Never fertilize(施肥)them! But don’t worry, either, if they never seem to catch any insects. They can survive, but they’ll grow very slowly.
小題1:According to the passage, carnivorous plants       .
A．only grow in wild fieldB．a(chǎn)re rare to see
C．a(chǎn)re as common as fliesD．cannot grow on Antarctica
小題2:Venus’ flytrap preys on insects by          .
A．its numerous long stalksB．a(chǎn) container where it grows
C．its insect-catching leaves D．the lining of tiny trigger hairs
小題3:We can conclude from the third paragraph that_____.
A．carnivorous plants are dangerous
B．carnivorous plants are fictional
C．carnivorous plants occasionally eat books
D．carnivorous plants are harmless to humans
小題4:In the eyes of the author, which of the following statements is TRUE?
A．Carnivorous plants cannot grow in acid soil.
B．Carnivorous plants can grow in nutrient-poor soil.
C．Carnivorous plants will die if they cannot catch any insects
D．Carnivorous plants can get nitrogen from nutrient-rich soil.

Today, in many high schools, teaching is now a technical miracle of computer labs, digital cameras, DVD players and laptops. Teachers can e-mail parents, post messages for students on online bulletin(公告，告示) boards, and take attendance with a quick movement of a mouse.
Even though we are now living in the digital age, the basic and most important element of education has not changed. Most students still need that one-on-one, teacher-student relationship to learn and to succeed. Teenagers need instruction in English, math or history, but they also want personal advice and encouragement. Kids talk with me about their families, their weekend plans, their favorite TV shows and their relationship problems. In my English and journalism classes, we talk about Shakespeare and persuasive(富有哲理的) essays, but we also discuss college basketball, the war in Iraq and career choices. Students show me pictures of their rebuilt cars, their family vacations, and their newborn baby brothers. This personal connection is the necessary link between teachers and students that no amount of technology can improve upon or replace.
A few years ago I had a student in sophomore English who was struggling with my class and with school in general. Although he was a humorous young man who liked to joke around, I knew his family life was far from ideal. Whenever I approached him about missing homework or low test grades, he always had the same reply, “It doesn’t matter because I’m quitting school anyway.” Even though he always said this in a half-teasing way, I knew he needed to hear my different opinion and my “value of a high school education” lecture. He needed to hear this speech from me. After he left my class, he struggled through the next two years of school. But, he did finally graduate because we kept telling him to hang in there. We’d cared about him finishing school.
Recently, I saw this former student working at a local Italian restaurant. I told him again how proud I was of him. He said that he was hoping to go back to school to become a certified electrician. I encouraged him to get that training.
Students rely on compassionate teachers to guide, to tutor, to listen, to laugh and to cry with them. Teachers provide the most important link in the educational process—the human one.
小題1:The first paragraph mainly talks about _____________.
A．the variety of modern teaching methods.
B．the wide use of modern technology in education
C．the importance of teacher-parent relationship.
D．the importance of using modern technology.
小題2:The underlined word “ compassionate” in Para 5 means ____________.
A．a(chǎn)mbitiousB．knowledgeableC．sympatheticD．generous
小題3: According to the text, the most important element in education is _________.
A．teachers’ good instructionB．a(chǎn)dvanced technology
C．teachers’ encouragementD．personal connection
小題4:The author states his view of education by __________.
A．exampleB．descriptionC．figureD．comparison

Free energy is everywhere around us. There are many ways to make and collect energy from various sources like sun, wind and water. People also realize that everyday stuff can be a source of energy too. For example, riding a bike, running or just walking, etc. We simply have to change our way of thinking if we want to change the world.
So comes the idea of solar roadways. Are they the road of future? Why use roads just for driving and collecting tolls (過(guò)路費(fèi))? Why don’t we use them for collecting energy?
The US Department of Transportation recently awarded $100,000 to Solar Roadways to build the first ever Solar Road Panel. So how do these future roads work?
The Solar Road Panels will contain embedded (嵌入的) LEDs which “paint” the road lines from beneath to provide safer nighttime driving as well as to give drivers instant instructions such as detour (繞行) ahead. The road will be able to sense wildlife on the road and can warn drivers to “slow down”. There will also be embedded heating elements in the surface to prevent snow and ice buildup, providing safer winter driving.
Replacing asphalt (瀝青) roads and parking lots with Solar Roadway Panels will be a major step toward stopping climate change. Fully electric vehicles will be able to recharge along the roadway and in parking lots, finally making electric cars practical for long trips.
We just can’t wait to see more of these roads all over the world in the near future.
小題1:The first paragraph serves as a(n)______.
A．a(chǎn)rgumentB．commentC．explanationD．background
小題2:Which of the following is NOT true of LEDs?
A．They color the road lines.
B．They are embedded in the Solar Road Panels.
C．They are beneficial for nighttime driving.
D．They can provide instant instructions.
小題3: When some animals are on the solar road, what will the road do?
A．Guide them to a safer place.B．Remind drivers to drive slowly.
C．Frighten them away from the road.D．Advise drivers to choose another way.
小題4: From the text, we can know that the Solar Road Panels can______.
A．provide heat for drivers in winter
B．guide drivers who get lost on the highway
C．melt snow and ice soon in winter
D．help drivers see the road clearly in the sun

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

I’ve been writing for most of my life. The book Writing Without Teachers introduced me to one distinction(區(qū)別)and one practice that has helped my writing processes tremendously. The distinction is between the creative mind and the critical mind. While you need to employ both to get to a finished result, they cannot work in parallel no matter how much we might like to think so.
Trying to criticize writing on the fly is possibly the single greatest barrier to writing that most of us encounter. If you are listening to that 5th grade English teacher correct your grammar while you are trying to capture a fleeting (稍縱即逝的) thought, the thought will die. If you capture the fleeting thought and simply share it with the world in raw form, no one is likely to understand. You must learn to create first and then criticize if you want to make writing the tool for thinking that it is.
The practice that can help you past your learned bad habits of trying to edit as you write is what Elbow calls “free writing.” In free writing, the objective is to get words down on paper non-stop, usually for 15-20 minutes. No stopping, no going back, no criticizing. The goal is to get the words flowing. As the words begin to flow, the ideas will come from the shadows and let themselves be captured on your notepad or your screen.
Now you have raw materials that you can begin to work with using the critical mind that you’ve persuaded to sit on the side and watch quietly. Most likely, you will believe that this will take more time than you actually have and you will end up staring blankly at the pages as the deadline draws near.
Instead of staring at a blank start filling it with words no matter how bad. Halfway through your available time, stop and rework your raw writing into something closer to finished product. Move back and forth until you run out of time and the final result will most likely be far better than your current practices.
小題1:When the author says the creative mind and the critical mind “cannot work in parallel” in the writing process, he means                .
A．one cannot use them at the same timeB．they cannot be regarded as equally important
C．they are in constant conflict with each otherD．no one can be both creative and critical
小題2:What prevents people from writing on is                .
A．putting their ideas in raw formB．ignoring grammatical soundness
C．a(chǎn)ttempting to edit as they write D．trying to capture fleeting thoughts
小題3:What is the chief objective of the first stage of writing?
A．To organize one’s thoughts logically.B．To get one’s ideas down.
C．To choose an appropriate topic.D．To collect raw materials.
小題4:One common concern of writers about “free writing” is that                .
A．it overstresses the role of the creative mindB．it does not help them to think clearly
C．it may bring about too much criticismD．it takes too much time to edit afterwards
小題5:In what way does the critical mind help the writer in the writing process?
A．It allows him to sit on the side and observe.B．It helps him to come up with new ideas.
C．It saves the writing time available to him.D．It improves his writing into better shape.
