第一节(共15小题，每题2．5分，37．5分)
A
My father was 44 and knew he wasn’t going to make it to 45．He wrote me a letter and hoped that something in it would help me for the rest of my life.
Since the day I was 12 and first read his letter, some of his words have lived in my heart. One part always stands out. “Right now, you are pretending to be a time­killer. But I know that one day, you will do something great that will set you among the very best.” Knowing that my dad believed in me gave me permission to believe in myself. “You will do something great.” He didn’t know what that would be, and neither did I, but at times in my life when I’ve felt proud of myself. I remember his words and wish he were here so I could ask, “Is this what you were talking about, Dad? Should I keep going？”
A long way from 12 now, I realize he would have been proud when I made any progress. Lately, though, I’ve come to believe he’d want me to move on to what comes next: to be proud of, and believe in somebody else. It’s time to start writing my own letters to my children. Our children look to us with the same unanswered question we had. Our kids don’t hold back because they’re afraid to fail. They’re only afraid of failing us. They don’t worry about being disappointed. Their fear－as mine was until my father’s letter－is of being a disappointment. Give your children permission to succeed. They’re waiting for you to believe in them.
I always knew my parents loved me. But trust me: That belief will be more complete, that love will be more real, and their belief in themselves will be greater if you write the words on their hearts：“Don’t worry; you’ll do something great.” Not having that blessing from their parents may be the only thing holding them back.

1．We learn from the text that the author ________.
A．lost his father when he was young
B．worked hard before he read his father’s letter
C．asked his father’s permission to believe in himself
D．knew exactly what great thing his father wanted him to do

B．Children are afraid to be disappointed.
C．His children’s fear of failure held them back.
D．His father’s letter removed his fear of failing his parents.
3．Which of the following is TRUE?

D．He once asked his father about the letter.
【语篇解读】这是一篇记叙文。作者的父亲通过一封信告诉作者对他的爱与信任，这种爱与信任让作者在生活中取得了很大的进步。因此作者鼓励父母亲给孩子鼓励与信任。
1．A　细节理解题。根据文章前两段第一句“My father was 44 and knew he wasn’t going to make it to 45…Since the day I was 12 and first read his letter, some of his words have lived in my heart(我父亲当时44岁，他知道自己活不到45岁……从我12岁第一次读到他的信的那天起，他的一些话就深深地印在了我的心里)．”可知，作者年幼时失去了父亲。故选A项。
2．D　推理判断题。根据第三段最后三句“They’re only afraid of failing us. They don’t worry about being disappointed. Their fear－as mine was until my father’s letter－is of being a disappointment.”可知，“我”的孩子很担心没有符合“我们”的期望值，而“我”却没有这样的担心，由此判断出父亲的信让“我”不害怕让父母亲失望。故选D项。
3．C　细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句“I always knew my parents loved me.”可知，“我”很清楚地知道父母亲很爱“我”。所以“他确信他的父母爱他”。故选C项。
B
When a child is told he is “uncool”， it can be very painful. He may say he doesn’t care, and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose. But these are simple ways to handle sadness by pretending it’s not there.
Helping a child feel better in school had to be careful. If you say, “Why are you worried about what other children think about you? It doesn’t matter！” Children know that it does matter. Instead, an active way may be best. You could say, “I’m going to do a couple of things for you to help you feel better in school.”
If a boy is having trouble making friends, the teacher can help him. The teacher can arrange things so that he has chances to use his abilities to contribute to class projects. This is how the other children learn how to value his good qualities and to like him. A teacher can also raise a child’s popularity in the group by showing that he values that child. It even helps to put him in a seat next to a very popular child, or let him be a partner with that child in activities, etc.
There are things that parents can do at home, too. Be friendly when your child brings others home to play. Encourage him to invite friends to meals and then serve the dishes they consider “super”. When you plan trips, picnics, movies, and other shows, invite another child with whom your child wants to be friends.
What you can do is to give him a chance to join a group that may be shutting him out. Then, if he has good qualities, he can start to build real friendship of his own.
4．A child who has been informed of being “uncool” may ________.
A．care nothing about it
B．pretend to get hurt very much
C．develop a sense of anger
D．do something uncool on purpose
5．A teacher can help an unpopular child by ________.
A．seeing the child as the teacher’s favorite
B．offering the child chances to show his good qualities
C．forcing other children to make friends with him
D．asking the child to do something for partners
6．Which of the following is TRUE?
A．Inviting children’s friends to family activities is good for them to make friends.
B．It’s only teachers’ work to make children popular.
C．Parents should take their children out for picnic and shows more often.
D．Children don’t care others’ comments on them.
7．Which is the best title of the text?
A．Who Care About Unpopular Children
B．Why Some Children Are Unpopular
C．What Good Qualities Unpopular Children Have
D．How an Unpopular Child Can Be Helped
【语篇解读】 这是一篇说明文。文章教会“我们”如何让孩子拥有更好的品质，建立自己真正的友谊。
4．D　细节理解题。根据第一段“When a child is told he is ’uncool’， it can be very painful. He may say he doesn’t care, and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose.”可知，当一个孩子被告知他“不酷”时，可能会非常痛苦。他可能会说他不在乎，甚至故意做出一些不冷静的行为。故选D项。
5．B　细节理解题。根据第三段“The teacher can arrange things so that he has chances to use his abilities to contribute to class projects. This is how the other children learn how to value his good qualities and to like him. A teacher can also raise a child’s popularity in the group by showing that he values that child.”可知，老师可以把事情安排好，这样他就有机会运用自己的能力为课堂项目做出贡献。这是其他孩子学习如何珍惜他的优点和喜欢他的方式。老师也可以通过表现出对孩子的重视来提高孩子在群体中的受欢迎程度。所以老师可以通过给不受欢迎的孩子提供展示自己优秀品质的机会来帮助他们。故选B项。
6．A　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“When you plan trips, picnics, movies, and other shows, invite another child with whom your child wants to be friends.”可知，父母也可以通过多种途径帮助孩子。其中之一就是邀请其他孩子参与家庭活动，和自己的孩子交朋友。所以邀请孩子想结交的朋友参加家庭活动对他们有好处。故选A项。
7．D　主旨大意题。通过对文章的归纳总结可知，文章从老师、家长等的角度出发，提出多种解决方案，帮助孩子由一个不受欢迎的人变成拥有良好品质且会建立自己真正友谊的人。所以短文的最佳标题为“一个不受欢迎的孩子怎样得到帮助”。故选D项。

LONDON－To get a mobile phone as a gift for 14th birthday, Lucy declared to her parents that everyone else has one. Her parents gave in.
Curious to know how her daughter would use the phone, Jane Bidder, the mother, followed Lucy to the school bus in the morning. The bus seats 20, of whom half have a mobile phone. One rings and several adolescent owners fumble with their bags.
Many parents have just come to realize that the mobile phone is no longer for traveling businessmen—it is as likely to be found in school bags.
The mobile phone seems to have become something essential for today’s teens in Britain, according to a survey published last week, by NOP, a leading market research company in Britain. Research found that 66 percent of 16­year­olds now have access to a mobile phone.
The mobile phone has been turned into a secret messaging service by teen users. When they are talking on the mobile, their parents are not able to eavesdrop on the second line.
The interview with 2,019 young people aged 7 to 16 found that they favor the text messaging service because they offer a secret way of keeping in touch. The days of secret notes in the classroom are dying out.
For example, “cul” means “see you later”； “lol” means “laugh out loud”； and “2nite” is the abbreviation of “tonight”. All these are based on shorthand phrases on the Internet.
Many schools have banned students using mobile phones. But they are not very successful. Still phones ring in the class and disturb study. Besides, people are worried about the health risk to kids using mobile phones.
Scientists believe children are especially vulnerable (易受伤的) to mobile radiation.
8．The story of Lucy is told to show us ________.
A．British parents always meet their children’s needs
B．how British parents accept the truth of teenagers owning a mobile phone
C．British kids have good relationship with their parents
D．why every child gets a mobile phone as a birthday present in UK
9．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A．People worry about the harm to the kids’ health by using mobile phone.
B．Teenagers want to have their own secret.
C．Teenagers like to send messages to each other.
D．Lucy does not get the mobile phone she wants.
10．The underlined word “eavesdrop” means ________.
A．join in actively B．interrupt rudely
C．listen secretly D．watch carefully
11．Interviews discover that children like to send messages instead of ________.
A．calling each other
B．playing games online
C．writing to each other
D．greeting each other
【语篇解读】本文是说明文。文章通过讲述Lucy 要求父母给她买手机的故事告诉读者，英国父母逐渐接受孩子们拥有手机这一现象。
8．B　推理判断题。文章第一、二段讲述了Lucy要求父母给她买手机的事例，接着第三段的“Many parents have just come to realize that the mobile phone is no longer for traveling businessmen — it is as likely to be found in school bags(许多家长开始意识到手机不再是为旅行的商人准备的——它很可能是在书包里被找到)．”引出话题。由此可知，作者讲述Lucy的故事是为了告诉读者英国父母如何接受青少年拥有手机的真相。故选B项。
9．D　细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“Her parents gave in.”可知，Lucy的父母做出让步，给她买了手机，因此D项“Lucy does not get the mobile phone she wants(Lucy没有得到她想要的手机)．”与原文不符。故选D项。
10．C　词义猜测题。根据第六段第一句“The interview with 2,019 young people aged 7 to 16 found that they favor the text messaging service because they offer a secret way of keeping in touch (对2019名7至16岁的年轻人的采访发现，他们喜欢短信服务是因为这是一种保持联系的秘密方式)．”可知，短信服务给青少年们提供一种秘密的交流方式。由此推断，当他们讲电话时，父母再也不能“偷听”了，因此 eavesdrop意为“偷听”。故选C项。
11．C　细节理解题。根据第六段“The interview with 2,019 young people aged 7 to 16 found that they favor the text messaging service because they offer a secret way of keeping in touch. The days of secret notes in the classroom are dying out (对2019名7至16岁的年轻人的采访发现，他们喜欢短信服务是因为这是一种保持联系的秘密方式。在教室里放秘密纸条的日子正在消失)．”可知，青少年们更喜欢短信交流，而传纸条已经绝迹了。故选C项。

Hacking our senses to boost learning power
Some schools are pumping music, noises and pleasant smells into the classroom to see if it improves exam results. Could it work? Why do songs stick in our heads? What does your school smell like? Is it noisy or peaceful?
It might not seem important, but a growing body of research suggests that smells and sounds can have an impact on learning, performance and creativity. Indeed, some head teachers have recently taken to broadcasting noises and pumping smells into their schools to see whether it can boost grades. Is there anything in it? And if so, what are the implications for the way we work and study?
There is certainly some well­established research to suggest that some noises can have a harmful effect on learning. Numerous studies over the past 15 years have found that children attending schools under the flight paths of large airports fall behind in their exam results. Bridget Shield, a professor of acoustics (声学) at London South Bank University, and Julie Dockrell, from the Institute of Education, have been conducting studies on the effects of all sorts of noises, such as traffic and sirens (汽笛), as well as noise generated by the children themselves. When they recreated those particular sounds in an experimental setting while children completed various learning tasks, they found a significant negative effect on exam scores.
“Everything points to a bad impact of the noise on children’s performance, in numeracy, in literacy, and in spelling，” says Shield. The noise seemed to have an especially harmful effect on children with special needs.
Whether background sounds are beneficial or not seems to depend on what kind of noise it is — and the volume. In a series of studies published last year, Ravi Mehta from the College of Business at Illinois and his colleagues tested people’s creativity while exposed to a soundtrack made up of background noises — such as coffee­shop chatter and construction­site drilling — at different volumes. They found that people were more creative when the background noises were played at a medium level than when volume was low. Loud background noise, however, damaged their creativity.
Many teachers all over the world already play music to students in class. Many are inspired by the belief that hearing music can boost IQ in later tasks, the so­called Mozart effect. While the evidence actually suggests it’s hard to say classical music boosts brainpower, researchers do think pleasant sounds before a task can sometimes lift your mood and help you perform well, says Perham, who has done his own studies on the phenomenon. The key appears to be that you enjoy what you’re hearing. “If you like the music or you like the sound — even listening to a Stephen King novel — then you do better. It doesn’t matter about the music，” he says.
So, it seems that schools that choose to prevent disturbing noises and create positive soundscapes could enhance the learning of their for students, so long as they make careful choices. Yet this isn’t the only sense being used to affect learning. Special educational needs for students at Sydenham high school in London are being encouraged to revise different subjects in the presence of different smells — grapefruit scents for maths, lavender for French and spearmint for history.
12．The four questions in the first paragraph are meant to ________.
A．create some sense of humour to please the readers
B．provide the most frequently asked questions in schools nowadays
C．hold the readers’ attention and arouse their curiosity to go on reading
D．declare the purpose of the article: to try to offer key to those questions
13．What does the conclusion of the studies of noise conducted by Bridget Shield and Julie Dockrell suggest?
A．Peaceful music plays an active role in students’ learning.
B．Not all noises have a negative impact on children’s performance.
C．We should create for school children a more peaceful environment.
D．Children with special needs might be exposed to some particular sounds.
14．Ravi Mehta’s experiment indicates that ________.
A．students’ creativity improves in a quiet environment
B．we may play some Mozart music while students are learning
C．a proper volume of background noises does improve creativity
D．noise of coffee­shop chatter is better than that of construction­site drilling
15．Towards the positive impact of appropriate background sound and smell on students’ learning and cre
