At the beginning of Grade Two, I joined the cross-country running team in our school.
When I came to the first practice, I was filled with optimism. But as the distance we ran in each practice gradually increased from three to four, to six miles, I realized with surprise that no matter how hard I tried, I wasn’t able to run as fast as others. In fact, I was one of the slowest on the team.
What was the point of putting myself through so much pain After the first few weeks, I wanted to quit.
Then we had our first cross-country meet
When we started the race, I felt the great pressure of expectations sink onto my shoulders. And after a while I stopped running and struggled to walk up the hill. But then I heard my coaches shouting my name from the top of the hill. I felt confused and embarrassed; why were they cheering for me I was running terribly! As I tried my best to finish the race, I realized that my coaches didn’t care how fast I ran. Neither did my teammates. During the rest of the season, they were always on the sidelines of every race, cheering for me just as loudly as they’d cheered for the front runner.
From then on, I began to put my effort into supporting my teammates instead of focusing on my own performance. In that way, I celebrated my teammates’ victories as if they were my own; I felt their pain and exhaustion as if they were my own.
Cross-country running made me realize I don’t need to be the best to be successful in life. It taught me to value my relationships with people more than my relationship with my ego. It taught me to cheer for others even if I don’t know their names.

A. He had much pain in his knees.
B. He didn’t perform well in long-distance running.

D. He showed no interest in running.

A. The importance of team spirit B. The value of competition
C. The secret of winning a race D. The benefits of doing sports
C
Today, the most frightening living shark is the great white, which is over six meters long and bites with a force of two tonnes. Its fossil relative, Megalodon (meaning "big tooth") that lived about 23 to 3.6 million years ago, was over twice the length of a great white shark and had a bite force of more than ten tonnes.
Jack Cooper and his team used a number of mathematical methods to find out the size and proportions(比例)of this monster, by making close comparisons with a variety of living relatives that have certain similarities to Megalodon. He said, “I have always been mad about sharks. Megalodon was actually the very animal that inspired me to pursue palaeontology(古生物学) in the first place when I was just six years old, so I was over the moon to get a chance to study it. This was my dream project.”
Previously the fossil shark, known formally as Otodus megalodon, was only compared with the great white. Jack and his colleagues, for the first time, expanded this analysis to include five modern sharks. “ Megalodon is not a direct ancestor of the great white and is equally related to several modern sharks such as the salmon shark, as well as the great white. We collected detailed measurements of all five to make predictions about Megalodon,”Dr. Pimiento said.
The researchers discovered that the babies of all these modern sharks start out as little adults, and they don’t change in proportion as they get larger. Jack Cooper said, “This means we could simply take the growth curves(生长曲线) of the five modem forms and forecast the overall shape as they get larger and larger--- right up to a body length of 16 meters.”
The results suggest that a 16-meter-long Megalodon likely had a head round 4.65 meters long, a fin about 1.62 meters tall on the back and a tail around 3.85 meters high. The reconstruction of the size of Megalodon’s body parts represents a fundamental step towards a better understanding of this huge extinct shark.
8. Why is the great white mentioned in Paragraph 1
A. To remind people to stay away from it.
B. To uncover its close relation with Megalodon.
C. To introduce the researchers' new findings about it.
D. To show Megalodon's giant body and strength by comparison.
9. What does the underlined phrase"over the moon"in Paragraph 2 mean
A. A bit hesitant. B. Very excited.
C. Really stressed. D. Totally unprepared.
10. What was special about the new study led by Jack Cooper
A. It proved the real existence of Megalodon.
B. It was based on data from five types of modern sharks.
C. It was aimed at finding the direct ancestor of the great white.
D. It compared Megalodon with the great white for the first time.
11. What did the researchers find about Megalodon
A. Their babies had the same body length as modern baby sharks.
B. Their body proportions changed dramatically during growth.
C. Their fin on the back could be as tall as an adult human.
D. Their bite force was equal to the great white’s.
D
The way we cook is important. In many countries, the two sources of heat used for cooking are natural gas or electric stoves. The World Health Organization(WHO) warns that millions of people are dying every year from indoor air pollution. The WHO finds that poor cooking, heating and lighting technologies are killing millions of people each year.
Indoor air pollution results from the use of dangerous fuels and cook stoves in the home. WHO officials say nearly three billion people are unable to use clean fuels and technologies for cooking, heating and lighting. And they say more than seven million people die from exposure to indoor or outdoor air pollution each year. Of that number, the WHO says about 4.3 million people die from household air pollution given off by simple biomass(生物燃料）and coal stoves.
These findings show that the home use of poisonous fuels is to blame for many of these deaths. These fuels include wood, coal, animal waste and so on. Carlos Dora is Coordinator in the WHO’ s Department of Public Health, Environmental and Social Determinants of Health. He says people should not use unprocessed coal and kerosene(煤油）fuel indoors. He says opening a window or door to let out the harmful air will not correct the situation. It will only pollute the outdoors. “New technologies and clean fuels can rid people of this problem.”
The United Nations found that more than 95 percent of families in sub-Saharan Africa depend on solid fuels for cooking. It says huge populations in India, China and Latin American countries, such as Guatemala and Peru, are also at risk.
Nigel Bruce is a professor of Public Health at the University of Liverpool. He says researchers are developing good stoves and other equipment to burn fuels in a more efficient way.“There are already many technologies for clean fuels available now. An effective and reasonably low-cost ethanol(酒精）stove that is made by Dometic (a Sweden-based company)is now being tested out. Another interesting development is electric induction stoves.” In India, you can buy an induction stove for about $8. And in Africa you can buy a solar lamp for less than $1.
12. How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed
A. By making classifications. B. By listing numbers.
C. By following time order. D. By describing a process.
13. According to Carlos Dora, what is the best solution to indoor air pollution
A. People should use an effective air cleaner.
B. People should use new technologies and clean fuels.
C. People should open a window or door to let out the harmful air.
D. People should prevent themselves from being exposed to harmful air..
14. What can we learn from the passage
A. Most of the deaths from indoor pollution are in developing countries.
B. Burning solid fuels can help limit indoor air pollution .
C. People can buy ethanol stoves made by Dometic in India.
D. There are already two technologies for clean fuels available for use.
15. Which would be the best title for the passage
A. The way we cook is changing.
B. Cause of indoor air pollution.
C The development of electric stoves.
D. Indoor air pollution kills millions each year.

Today, the most frightening living shark is the great white, which is over six meters long and bites with a force of two tonnes. Its fossil relative, Megalodon (meaning "big tooth") that lived about 23 to 3.6 million years ago, was over twice the length of a great white shark and had a bite force of more than ten tonnes.
Jack Cooper and his team used a number of mathematical methods to find out the size and proportions(比例)of this monster, by making close comparisons with a variety of living relatives that have certain similarities to Megalodon. He said, “I have always been mad about sharks. Megalodon was actually the very animal that inspired me to pursue palaeontology(古生物学) in the first place when I was just six years old, so I was over the moon to get a chance to study it. This was my dream project.”
Previously the fossil shark, known formally as Otodus megalodon, was only compared with the great white. Jack and his colleagues, for the first time, expanded this analysis to include five modern sharks. “ Megalodon is not a direct ancestor of the great white and is equally related to several modern sharks such as the salmon shark, as well as the great white. We collected detailed measurements of all five to make predictions about Megalodon,”Dr. Pimiento said.
The researchers discovered that the babies of all these modern sharks start out as little adults, and they don’t change in proportion as they get larger. Jack Cooper said, “This means we could simply take the growth curves(生长曲线) of the five modem forms and forecast the overall shape as they get larger and larger--- right up to a body length of 16 meters.”
The results suggest that a 16-meter-long Megalodon likely had a head round 4.65 meters long, a fin about 1.62 meters tall on the back and a tail around 3.85 meters high. The reconstruction of the size of Megalodon’s body parts represents a fundamental step towards a better understanding of this huge extinct shark.
8. Why is the great white mentioned in Paragraph 1
A. To remind people to stay away from it.
B. To uncover its close relation with Megalodon.
C. To introduce the researchers' new findings about it.
D. To show Megalodon's giant body and strength by comparison.
9. What does the underlined phrase"over the moon"in Paragraph 2 mean
A. A bit hesitant. B. Very excited.
C. Really stressed. D. Totally unprepared.
10. What was special about the new study led by Jack Cooper
A. It proved the real existence of Megalodon.
B. It was based on data from five types of modern sharks.
C. It was aimed at finding the direct ancestor of the great white.
D. It compared Megalodon with the great white for the first time.
11. What did the researchers find about Megalodon
A. Their babies had the same body length as modern baby sharks.
B. Their body proportions changed dramatically during growth.
C. Their fin on the back could be as tall as an adult human.
D. Their bite force was equal to the great white’s.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了大白鲨和它的化石近亲巨齿鲨。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Today, the most frightening living shark is the great white, which is over six meters long and bites with a force of two tonnes. Its fossil relative, Megalodon (meaning "big tooth") that lived about 23 to 3.6 million years ago, was over twice the length of a great white shark and had a bite force of more than ten tonnes.”（如今，在世的鲨鱼中最可怕的是大白鲨，它身长超过六米，咬人的力量可达两吨。它的化石近亲巨齿鲨(意为“大牙齿”)生活在2300万到360万年前，身长是大白鲨的两倍，咬力超过10吨）可推知在第一段中提到大白鲨是为了对比一下巨齿鲨巨大的身体和力量。故选D。
9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段“He said, “I have always been mad about sharks. Megalodon was actually the very animal that inspired me to pursue palaeontology(古生物学) in the first place when I was just six years old, so I was over the moon to get a chance to study it. This was my dream project.””（他说:“我一直很喜欢鲨鱼。在我六岁的时候，巨齿鲨正是激发我开始研究古生物学的动物，所以能有机会研究它，我over the moon。这是我梦寐以求的项目）可知他终于有机会研究自己梦寐以求的项目，非常的激动。"over the moon"的意思是非常激动的，故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Previously the fossil shark, known formally as Otodus megalodon, was only compared with the great white. Jack and his colleagues, for the first time, expanded this analysis to include five modern sharks. “ Megalodon is not a direct ancestor of the great white and is equally related to several modern sharks such as the salmon shark, as well as the great white. We collected detailed measurements of all five to make predictions about Megalodon,”Dr. Pimiento said.”（在此之前，化石鲨鱼，正式名称为巨齿齿鲨，只与大白鲨相比较。杰克和他的同事们第一次将这一分析扩展到包括五种现代鲨鱼。“巨齿鲨并不是大白鲨的直接祖先，它与一些现代鲨鱼也有同样的关系，比如鲑鱼鲨和大白鲨。我们收集了这五种动物的详细测量数据，从而对巨齿鲨做出预测。” Dr. Pimiento说）可知Jack Cooper领导的这项新研究的特别之处在于该研究基于五种现代鲨鱼的数据。故选B。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“The results suggest that a 16-meter-long Megalodon likely had a head round 4.65 meters long, a fin about 1.62 meters tall on the back and a tail around 3.85 meters high.”（结果表明，一头16米长的巨齿鲨的头可能有4.65米长，尾鳍约1.62米高，尾巴约3.85米高）可知研究人员发现巨齿鲨背上的鳍可以和成年人类一样高。故选C。
D
The way we cook is important. In many countries, the two sources of heat used for cooking are natural gas or electric stoves. The World Health Organization(WHO) warns that millions of people are dying every year from indoor air pollution. The WHO finds that poor cooking, heating and lighting technologies are killing millions of people each year.
Indoor air pollution results from the use of dangerous fuels and cook stoves in the home. WHO officials say nearly three billion people are unable to use clean fuels and technologies for cooking, heating and lighting. And they say more than seven million people die from exposure to indoor or outdoor air pollution each year. Of that number, the WHO says about 4.3 million people die from household air pollution given off by simple biomass(生物燃料）and coal stoves.
These findings show that the home use of poisonous fuels is to blame for many of these deaths. These fuels include wood, coal, animal waste and so on. Carlos Dora is Coordinator in the WHO’ s Department of Public Health, Environmental and Social Determinants of Health. He says people should not use unprocessed coal and kerosene(煤油）fuel indoors. He says opening a window or door to let out the harmful air will not correct the situation. It will only pollute the outdoors. “New technologies and clean fuels can rid people of this problem.”
The United Nations found that more than 95 percent of families in sub-Saharan Africa depend on solid fuels for cooking. It says huge populations in India, China and Latin American countries, such as Guatemala and Peru, are also at risk.
Nigel Bruce is a professor of Public Health at the University of Liverpool. He says researchers are developing good stoves and other equipment to burn fuels in a more efficient way.“There are already many technologies for clean fuels available now. An effective and reasonably low-cost ethanol(酒精）stove that is made by Dometic (a Sweden-based company)is now being tested out. Another interesting development is electric induction stoves.” In India, you can buy an induction stove for about $8. And in Africa you can buy a solar lamp for less than $1.
12. How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed
A. By making classifications. B. By listing numbers.
C. By following time order. D. By describing a process.
13. According to Carlos Dora, what is the best solution to indoor air pollution
A. People should use an effective air cleaner.
B. People should use new technologies and clean fuels.
C. People should open a window or door to let out the harmful air.
D. People should prevent themselves from being exposed to harmful air..
14. What can we learn from the passage
A. Most of the deaths from indoor pollution are in developing countries.
B. Burning solid fuels can help limit indoor air pollution .
C. People can buy ethanol stoves made by Dometic in India.
D. There are already two technologies for clean fuels available for use.
15. Which would be the best title for the passage
A. The way we cook is changing.
B. Cause of indoor air pollution.
C. The development of electric stoves.
D. Indoor air pollution kills millions each year.
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。 文章介绍室内污染造成上百万人的死亡，其主要原因是由于人们使用未经过处理的煤炭和煤油，其主要解决办法是依靠新科技发展新能源以及新的燃料。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“WHO officials say nearly three billion people are unable to use clean fuels and technologies for cooking, heating and lighting. And they say more than seven million people die from exposure to indoor or outdoor air pollution each year. Of that number, the WHO says about 4.3 million people die from household air pollution given off by simple biomass(生物燃料）and coal stoves.（世卫组织官员说，近30亿人无法使用清洁燃料和技术来做饭、取暖和照明。他们表示，每年有超过700万人死于室内或室外空气污染。世界卫生组织说，其中大约430万人死于简单生物质和煤炉造成的室内空气污染。） ”可知列举了一系列的数字来说明室内空气污染的严重性，故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“New technologies and clean fuels can rid people of this problem. （新技术和清洁燃料可以让人们摆脱这个问题。）” Carlos Dora认为人们应该使用新技术和清洁燃料去解决室内空气污染的问题，故选B。

推理判断题。根据第四段“The United Nations found that more than 95 percent of families in sub-Saharan Africa depend on solid fuels for cooking. It says huge populations in India, China and Latin American countries, such as Guatemala and Peru, are also at risk.（联合国发现，撒哈拉以南非洲地区95%以上的家庭依靠固体燃料做饭。该组织说，印度、中国和危地马拉、秘鲁等拉美国家的大量人口也面临风险。） ”本段所提及的国家均属于发展中国家，因此可以得出室内空气污染主要集中于发展中国家，故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“The World Health Organization(WHO) warns that millions of people are dying every year from indoor air pollution. The WHO finds that poor cooking, heating and lighting technologies are killing millions of people each year.（世界卫生组织(WHO)警告称，每年有数百万人死于室内空气污染。世界卫生组织发现，糟糕的烹饪、取暖和照明技术每年导致数百万人死亡。）” 和下文描述可知，室内空气污染每年造成数百万人死亡，引出文章话题，适合做标题，故选D。

I really miss my hometown, which I lived until I was ten. So recently I decided pay a short visit. To my astonished, the playground where he had a good time with my friends is now covered with buildings. The school I attended are no longer there and now it has became a supermarket. At that time, I always play football with several friend after class. No matter what the weather was like, we always played outside happy. And we developed lifelong friendship with each other which I value it greatly.
【答案】 1.which→where或在which前添in
2.在decided后加to
3.astonished→astonishment
4.he→I
5are→is
6.became→become
7.play→played
8.friend→friends
9.happy→happily
10.将it删去
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者因想念家乡回去探望发现物是人非怀念过往的纯真的友谊。
【详解】第一处：考查定语从句。句意：我真的很想念我的家乡，我在那里一直住到十岁。句中先行词为my hometown，在非限定性定语从句中作地点状语或作live in的宾语。故将which改为where或在which前添in。
第二处：考查短语。句意：所以最近我决定去拜访一下。固定短语decide to do决定做某事。故在decided后加to。
第三处：考查名词。句意：令我惊讶的是，我和朋友们玩得很开心的游乐场现在已经被建筑物覆盖了。根据句中的形容词性物主代词my可知后接的是名词。故将astonished改为astonishment。
第四处：考查代词。句意：令我惊讶的是，我和朋友们玩得很开心的游乐场现在已经被建筑物覆盖了。根据上下文可知，这里是写作者的所见所闻，所以用第一人称。故将he改为I。
第五处：考查主谓一致。句意：我上过的学校已经不在了，现在它已经变成了超市。逻辑主语The school是单数，所以谓语动词用单数形式。故将are改为is。
第六处：考查时态。句意：我上过的学校已经不在了，现在它已经变成了超市。现在完成时的结构是have+动词的过去分词，而become 的过去分词还是become。故将became改为become。
第七处：考查时态。句意：那时，我总是在课后和几个朋友踢足球。根据句中的时间状语At that time可知，该句时态应用过去时。故将play改为played。
第八处：考查名词的数。句意：那时，我总是在课后和几个朋友踢足球。根据名词前several可知后面应接名词复数形式。故将friend改为friends。
第九处：考查副词。句意：不管天气如何，我们总是在外面愉快地玩。动词played后用副词修饰。故将happy改为happily。
第十处：考查定语从句。句意：我们发展了终身的友谊，我非常珍惜。句中的关系代词which指代的是先行词lifelong friendship，所以代词it多余。故将it删去。
