Many years ago mathematics was my enemy. I was afraid of it and I hated it so much that you could not imagine.
Then came a new teacher to our village. On the first day，he entered the classroom with huge steps，reached the blackboard in a few seconds，and wrote his name on the blackboard.Some letters were in higher places and some were in lower places；some were as big as the board itself and some were so small that we had to open our eyes a lot to see them；some were wide enough，but on the other hand some were too thin.
As he turned around，the class suddenly became still and silent，trying to make_out what it was.As we read his name，we were all smiling，no laughing out loud.Soon we realized that he had a special and lasting sense of humor and we began to learn mathematics in a relaxed and happy mood(心情)．
As for my mathematics study，the barriers(障碍)began to turn into pieces，and the fear began to disappear slowly. What was dark and colorless suddenly became exciting，challenging，interesting and above all simply fun. There was some humor added to every sum(算术)and there was fun in every problem.
Thanks to this special teacher，math became the most enjoyable subject to me.

I have never traveled by plane but I would like to and I hope to have the opportunity very soon. Anyway，one can find advantages and disadvantages when traveling by plane.
The most important advantage is that it is the fastest means of transport when referring to long­distance travel. One can arrive in Spain in almost two hours and a half by plane. He can't even figure out how time has passed and he has arrived at his destination. He does not have to wait three days in order to arrive in Spain by coach(长途公共汽车)，which makes him feel pain in his legs and feel tired because he hasn't slept more than three hours in the last three days.
Then，think about the conditions which are at_our_beck_and_call：we are attended by a beautiful hostess who will take care of us on the flight. The comfort helps us forget about the possibility of some technical problems and of an undeserved accident.
Anyway，many people feel scared when it comes to flying in a plane. They say that the risks of losing your life in plane travel are higher than in car travel.
Apart from this disadvantage，there are people who don't choose to travel by plane because they get altitude sickness and they think air fares are too high.
One piece of advice I would like to give to people who choose to travel by plane is that they should not even think for a second about the plane crashing. Just relax，be comfortable and everything will be all right. Planes are well equipped and advanced technology tries to offer total protection to all passengers.
6．From the text，we can learn that ________.
A．it's a good choice to have long­distance travel by plane
B．there may be a few technical problems when people travel by plane
C．the author usually travels by plane
D．most people feel sick the first time they take a plane
7．What does the underlined phrase in the third paragraph mean?
A．Ready to serve us at any time.
B．Far away from us.
C．Out of our control.
D．Necessary in our life.
8．Which of the following is NOT the reason why people don't like to travel by
plane?
A．The risk of losing life is higher by plane.
B．Some people have altitude sickness.
C．It costs more to take a plane.
D．They can't have a good sleep on a plane.
9．What's the author's attitude towards plane travel?
A．She is in favor of it.
B．She is strongly against it.
C．She shows no concern about it.
D．She is doubtful about it.
10．What's the text mainly about?
A．How to avoid the disadvantages of traveling by plane.
B．The advantages and disadvantages of traveling by plane.
C．The special experience of traveling by plane.
D．Good advice on how to travel comfortably by plane. 　
C
Are you scared about moving up to senior high school？It can be a new experience，but you shouldn't worry. We've put together a guide on how to survive the first week.
You're not alone.
Remember everybody_else_in_your_year_is_in_the_same boat. They may not realize it, but they're just as nervous as you are. Entering senior high is an opportunity，not a problem. Things are different and all you need to do is to be polite and learn the new rules.
Teachers are ready to help!
If you're unsure what to do or are worried about anything then you had better ask for help. Teachers are probably the best people to turn to as they're experienced in helping new students. Some senior high schools also have a “friends system”. If your school has this，then you will be paired with an older student. They will look out for you and help you if you have any problems or questions.
All change
There are lots of differences between junior high school and senior high school. You'll have a homework diary or a student planner. You will have your lessons with different teachers in different rooms. You will have homework for different subjects on different days，so make sure you get organized. Make sure you have a copy of your school timetable written down so you know which rooms your classes are in and on which days you will have your different subjects.
Other points
If you've got an older brother or sister at the school then ask them for advice.
Be yourself！It sounds simple，but people will know you much better if you just act naturally.
Having early nights makes a difference and you'll find it easier to get up in the morning!
11．Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?
A．Other students have similar feelings to yours.
B．Other students have to learn boating with you.
C．Other students will help you solve your problems.
D．Other students will teach you politeness and new rules.
12．The new students turn to teachers first when having problems because ________.
A．teachers won't blame them as parents do
B．teachers are good at helping solve problems
C．teachers are equal to every student
D．parents are too busy to help them
13．How many of the followings are the author's advice for a new senior high school
student?
①keeping a homework diary
②making a plan
③keeping a copy of school timetable
④getting yourself organized
⑤going to classrooms half an hour before the classes
A．2 B．3 C．4 D．5
14．Which of the following is NOT true?
A．You can act in a natural way.
B．You should go to bed early enough.

A healthy diet, rather than junk food, is best for decreasing stress.

Help your child balance his time so that he will feel comfortable taking time out from studying to spend time with friends or rest.
Show a positive attitude.__20__ Your worry, anxiety and blame contribute to your children’ pressure. Make your child feel accepted and valued for his efforts. Most importantly, reassure(确保) your child that things will be all right, no matter what the results are.

The teacher was shocking when the boy stood up and said, “I've just swallowed a pen cap.” He was quickly sent the nearest hospital. There a doctor examined him and said the best treatment was to take some medicines so that the pen cap could pass natural.
