By the time she turned 18, Khadijah Williams had attended twelve schools. She had lived in shelters, in parks, and in motels, never in a permanent residence for more than a few months. She had been laughed at and looked down upon by students at a dozen schools who thought of her as “different”.
Homeless since early childhood, Khadijah struggled all her life to hide her circumstances from teachers and fellow students. However, academic achievement proved to be a way for her to find confidence in herself again. For instance, at the age of 9, she placed in the 99th percentile on a state exam, and her teacher told her she was “gifted”. From that moment forward, Khadijah decided to do whatever it took to keep herself in that category. “I was so proud of being smart. I often heard my fellow students say, ‘You got the easy way out because you're homeless,’” she told The LA Times. “But I never saw it as an excuse about living a less successful life.”
By the second year of high school, she realized that she could not succeed in getting the education she dreamed of without getting help to go beyond what her current school could offer. She talked to teachers and advisers who helped her apply for summer community college classes, scholarships, and enrichment programs. And in the 11th grade, when she enrolled at Jefferson High School, she decided to complete the rest of her school career there—a decision that meant taking a bus each morning at 4 a.m. and not getting home until 11 p.m.
Here's the end of the story—when Khadijah poured the story of her life into her Harvard University college application, she was accepted.
4. What makes Khadijah confident in herself
A.Her different personality.
B.Her ability to live well alone.
C.Her excellent performance in study.
D.Her fellow students' encouragement.
5. What do many students think of Khadijah's being homeless
A.It's a really pitiful circumstance.
B.It makes her more strongminded.
C.It offers her more ways to succeed.
D.It's an excuse about working less hard.
6. What did Khadijah's teachers and advisers help her do
A.Pass a college entrance exam.
B.Apply for more advanced education.
C.Make a decision to complete high school.
D.Become a top student in her current school.
7. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text
A.Twelve Schools Make a Successful Student
B.Being Different Means Having More Chances
C.Khadijah Williams: From Shelters to Harvard
D.Khadijah Williams: Inspiration to Homeless People
C
Any introduction to Peking Opera would not be complete without telling of Mei Lanfang. Traditionally only men performed in Peking Opera, including the female roles. And Mei Lanfang was the very best master of the Miss. During his stage life, he combined the traditions of the past with his own creations, shaping a style of his own and giving birth to “The Mei Lanfang School”. He was also the first artist to introduce Peking Opera to the overseas audience, winning international fame(名声)across the globe. For half a century, Mei Lanfang was a household(家喻户晓的)name in China.
Mei Lanfang began his stage life at the age of 8. His teacher said he showed little hope because of his boring eyes. To improve this, he exercised them day after day. He would fly kites and look at them moving slowly in a blue sky. He also kept pigeons in order to look at them flying higher and higher until they disappeared into the clouds. Thanks to his efforts, he managed to change his dull eyes into a pair of bright and expressive eyes and win national fame before the age of 20.
In over 50 years on the stage, Mei Lanfang played no less than 100 different characters in the traditional Peking Opera performance. He completely changed both stage makeup, costumes, and enriched characters’ gestures and expressions. He also wrote many new plays, designing the dances himself. The many dances he created form part of the great legacy that he left to Peking Opera.
In 1930, Mei Lanfang started on a successful US tour. There his brilliant performances fascinated(使着迷)the audience, making them realise that Peking Opera was a most valuable form of art.
8. Why did his teacher think he was of little hope on the stage
A.Because he began his stage life at a young age.
B.Because he could only perform in Peking Opera as female roles.
C.Because he liked flying kites and keeping pigeons and paid no efforts.
D.Because his eyes were not bright and expressive.
9. How long did it take Mei Lanfang to exercise his eyes into bright and expressive ones
A.About 8 years.
B.About 10 years.
C.About 12 years.
D.About 14 years.
10. What is the meaning of the underlined word “legacy” in Paragraph 3
A.Something of little importance.
B.Someone wellknown all over the world.
C.Someone considered to be an art treasure.
D.Something valuable passed down from generation to generation.
11. What is the main idea of the passage
A.The history of Peking Opera.
B.Mei Lanfang’s early stage life.
C.The creations of Peking Opera by Mei Lanfang.
D.Mei Lanfang’s great contributions to Peking Opera.

五、读后续写
47. 阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Everyone in the seaside town knows that Fliss has a special bond with her dog Molly. They work together, live together, and play together. The Labrador is literally at Fliss’s side all the time. If a person spent this much time with a friend, they would probably have fallen out by now, but the bond between Molly and her owner just gets stronger over time.
Fliss grew up in the city. In 2017, she moved to the seaside where she opened a bath and skincare shop. Upon arrival, she couldn’t believe how much litter was left “senselessly” on the beach. In fact, she was shocked and appalled by the “unavoidable” amount of litter she found while taking Molly for walks. Being a person who cares a lot about her surroundings, Fliss decided that she had to do something about it before the tide carried the litter into the sea, threatening marine life.
One day, while collecting litter on the beach, Fliss saw Molly running towards her with an empty water bottle in her mouth. As Molly drew near, she dropped the bottle at Fliss’s feet and set out to find other waste. This gave Fliss an idea: what if she could train Molly to find all those plastic bottles and bags, and make good use of them
The training started and Fliss was surprised at how fast Molly learned. Before long, the clever girl would venture to the seaside on her own and come home with her “prize”. She had soon filled Fliss’s house with pieces of rubbish from the local beach. At one point, Fliss’s garage was 60% filled with beach litter waiting to be distributed to local artists for use in their artwork.
When Fliss heard paws on the door the other day, she went to greet her good girl as usual. To her surprise, she saw Molly carrying a small plastic purse in her mouth. Fliss opened the purse and gasped. Inside was a passport, several credit cards, and a bunch of keys.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Fliss immediately took the purse to the local police station.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Three days later, a journalist called at Fliss’s shop.

Fliss immediately took the purse to the local police station. Handing over the purse, she told the policeman how Molly found it on the beach. The policeman promised to try his best to find the owner. With Molly’s help, Fliss went back to pick beach litter as usual, hoping the owner would turn up soon. Soon afterwards, the police contacted the owner, a tourist who was extremely worried about his lost purse. He hurried to the police station and got his belongings back.
Three days later, a journalist called at Fliss’s shop. He had heard about Molly’s good deed and wanted to interview them. Fliss shared the story of training Molly to collect beach rubbish. The journalist wrote a warm report. Soon Molly became a little star in the town. More people joined in cleaning the beach, making the seaside much cleaner and more beautiful.
