1．Little stream ran down from a high mountain through many villages and forests.Then it reached a desert，"I went through so many difficulties.I should have no problem crossing the desert，"she thought.As she started，she found herself slowly disappearing into the sand.After many tries，she still failed."Maybe I can't reach the ocean，" she said sadly to herself.
At this time，a deep voice said，"If a breeze（微风） can cross the desert，so can a river."It was the voice of the desert.But the little stream answered，"A breeze can fly，but I can't." "That's because you can't give up what you are.Let yourself evaporate（蒸发）into the breeze，and it can take you across，" said the desert. "Give up what I am now？No!No!" The little stream could not accept this idea. "The breeze can carry the vapor（蒸汽）across the desert and let it leave as rain.The rain will form a river again，"said the desert."And whether you are a river or vapor，your nature never changes. "Hearing this，the little stream went into the open arms of the breeze.It carried her to the next stage of her life.

2．A number of years ago，a man went to visit a circus（马戏团） in New York.He was able to walk around looking at the lions，monkeys，bears and other circus animals.As he was passing the elephants，he suddenly stopped.He found that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg.NO chains，no cages.It was clear that the elephants could，at any time，break away from their ropes but for some reason，they did not.
He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn't try to get away. "Well，" the trainer said， "when they are very young and much smaller，we use the same size rope to tie them and，at that age，it's enough to hold them.As they grow up，they still believe they cannot break away.They believe the rope can hold them，so they never try to break free."
"How could it be？" said the man.These animals could at any time break free from ropes.But because they were always stuck right where they were，they believed they couldn't.

Children seem to experience much pleasure and joy when listening to music，making music and dancing to music.Whether they are singing along to a CD，playing an instrument or dancing to music around the classroom，most children seem to thoroughly （彻底地） enjoy participating in a music activity.How wonderful it is to offer children the chance to do some activities about music!

8．You probably see a lot of things made of plastic，like bottles and bags，every day．What happens when that plastic gets thrown away？Scientists say much of it ends up in oceans and causes problems for creatures （生物） like fish and birds．
"Plastic puts ocean creatures in danger，"says Allison Schutes of the Ocean Conservancy．That's a group that works to protect the world's oceans．
A recent study shows that each minute，enough plastic reaches the ocean to fill up one garbage truck!That same study predicts that by the year 2050，our oceans will have more plastic than fish．
All that plastic is bad news for ocean life．Some ocean creatures die when they get tangled （使缠结） in pieces of plastic．Others accidentally eat it and die，too．
Most scientists say taking out all the plastic that's already in the ocean would be impossible．Instead，they say the best way is to prevent more plastic from getting there．
Many groups are already taking action．They organize cleanups on beaches to pick up litter before it reaches the ocean．___，volunteers from the Ocean Conservancy collected more than 16 million pounds of it last year!
Experts also encourage people to use less plastic．Many cities and towns in America have banned plastic shopping bags．Experts also suggest that people drink out of reusable bottles and try reusable shopping bags．

9．Most people want to be happy，but few know how to find happiness.Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness.Aristotle，a Greek thinker，said， "Happiness depends upon ourselves." In other words，we make our own happiness.Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life.Too often，we spend so much time thinking about the future ﹣for example，getting into college or getting a good job ﹣that we fail to enjoy the present.You should enjoy life's simple pleasures，such as reading a good book，listening to your favorite music，or spending time with close friends.People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.
Another secret to living a happy life is to be active，and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time.Many people experience this dancing，or playing a sport，such as swimming.You can forget about your problems，and only think about the activity.Finally，many people find happiness in helping others.
Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others.If you want to feel happier，do good things for someone.You can help a friend with his or her studies，go shopping to buy food for an elderly person，or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.

10．Music is different from songs.Songs express feelings with lyrics，but music with tones（音调）.Unlike songs，The musical tone itself has no specific meaning.Different people may get different things from the same musical performance.Though some musical works are difficult to understand，people need music in their daily life because it brings fun to them.Different people like different music：some love classical music，and others take pleasure in pop music.Most young people like pop music.

We know music is very important in our daily life．Do you notice music playing at any of those places when you go somewhere？Today most stores，stations，restaurants and other places play music．You might even hear music in an office or on a farm．

What has happened？These are just the types of problems a solar storm （太阳风暴）might cause．You may not think of storms as putting our society in danger．But today，a solar storm is as serious as other bad events，such as earthquakes．
A solar storm is caused by solar flares （太阳耀斑）：large explosions （爆炸） near the sun that can give off lots of energy．The strong energy can stop the satellite systems （卫星系统） that control our computers，telecom networks and so on．These storms can even cause the power to go off for weeks or months．

Great changes have taken place in towns that we have lived in for centuries，while completely new cities are being built.One such place is the city of Songdo.Every home there will have a"telepresence" system （远程遥控系统）﹣ allowing users to control the heating and locks，take part in video meetings，and receive education，healthcare and government services.Around the city，escalators （自动扶梯） will only move when someone is on them，and offices and schools will all be connected to the system.

At this time，a deep voice said，"If a breeze（微风） can cross the desert，so can a river."It was the voice of the desert.But the little stream answered，"A breeze can fly，but I can't."

The little stream could not accept this idea. "The breeze can carry the vapor（蒸汽）across the desert and let it leave as rain.The rain will form a river again，"said the desert."And whether you are a river or vapor，your nature never changes.

（3）D.细节理解题。根据"Give up what I am now？No!No!" The little stream could not accept this idea"放弃我现在的样子？不！不！"小溪不能接受这个想法。"可知，起初，小溪不接受沙漠的建议，因为她不会改变她的方式（她由溪水变成蒸汽的形态）。故选D。

2．A number of years ago，a man went to visit a circus（马戏团） in New York.He was able to walk around looking at the lions，monkeys，bears and other circus animals.As he was passing the elephants，he suddenly stopped.He found that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg.NO chains，no cages.It was clear that the elephants could，at any time，break away from their ropes but for some reason，they did not.
He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn't try to get away. "Well，" the trainer said， "when they are very young and much smaller，we use the same size rope to tie them and，at that age，it's enough to hold them.As they grow up，they still believe they cannot break away.They believe the rope can hold them，so they never try to break free."
"How could it be？" said the man.These animals could at any time break free from ropes.But because they were always stuck right where they were，they believed they couldn't.
Just like the poor elephants，how many of us go through life believing that we cannot do something，just because we failed at it once before？

【考点】方法与哲理；细节理解；推理判断；词句猜测．
【答案】ACDDC
【分析】文章讲了在马戏团看动物时，发现这些巨大的大象被一根绑在前腿上的小绳子拴住了，大象从不想着逃跑，原因是从小时候就这样拴着，大象以为永远也挣脱不开绳子，放弃了逃跑的想法，告诉人们即使失败过一次，也不要放弃。
【解答】（1）A.细节理解题。根据A number of years ago，a man went to visit a circus（马戏团） in New York.He was able to walk around looking at the lions，monkeys，bears and other circus animals.许多年前，一个人去参观纽约的一个马戏团。他可以四处走动，观察狮子、猴子、熊和其他马戏团动物。可知，动物们被关在马戏团里。故选A。
（2）C.词义猜测题。根据划线词所在句句意"很明显，大象在任何时候都能......绳子，但出于某种原因，它们没有。结合选项可以推断出"break away"在这里是"挣脱"的意思。故选C。
（3）D.细节理解题。根据"Well，" the trainer said， "when they are very young and much smaller，we use the same size rope to tie them and，at that age，it's enough to hold them."嗯，"训练员说，"当它们还很小的时候，我们用同样大小的绳子绑住它们，在那个年龄，这足够拴住它们。可知，他们用一根小绳子来拴住大象。故选D。
（4）D.细节理解题。根据They believe the rope can hold them，so they never try to break free.它们相信那根绳子可以拴住他们，所以他们从不试图挣脱。可知，大象相信这条绳子能拴住自己，所以它们从不试图挣脱。所以D选项中的"大象经常从马戏团跑开"说法是错误。故选D。
（5）C.推理判断题。根据Just like the poor elephants，how many of us go through life believing that we cannot do something，just because we failed at it once before？就像可怜的大象一样，我们中有多少人一生都认为自己做不到某件事，仅仅因为我们曾经失败过一次？可以推断出，作者通过讲述大象的故事来告诉我们不要因为曾经失败过就要放弃。故选C。

8．You probably see a lot of things made of plastic，like bottles and bags，every day．What happens when that plastic gets thrown away？Scientists say much of it ends up in oceans and causes problems for creatures （生物） like fish and birds．
"Plastic puts ocean creatures in danger，"says Allison Schutes of the Ocean Conservancy．That's a group that works to protect the world's oceans．
A recent study shows that each minute，enough plastic reaches the ocean to fill up one garbage truck!That same study predicts that by the year 2050，our oceans will have more plastic than fish．
All that plastic is bad news for ocean life．Some ocean creatures die when they get tangled （使缠结） in pieces of plastic．Others accidentally eat it and die，too．
