spot of red was what first caught Randy Heisss attention on December 16.He was biking on his farm in Patagonia,Arizona,a town near the U.S.-Mexico border.Heiss walked toward it,and found on the grassland was a broken balloon with its string attached to a piece of paper.“Dayami,” it read on one side,in a childs writing.It was a Christmas wish list,all in Spanish.He suspected that a child had tried to send Santa Claus a Christmas wish list by balloon,something he used to do himself when he was a kid.And he wondered whether he could find the child who had sent this one.It would be

XENY,met the family.“Their eves were wide open with wonder.” Heiss said of the two sisters reactions.“Like.Oh my gosh,this really did work!”Not wanting to disappoint the girls who still believed in Santa Claus,Heiss and his wife told them they were “Santas helpers”.“It was a beautiful and healing experience for us.” Heiss said,“Since our only son died ten years ago,being around children at Christmas time has been absent in our lives.” Heiss said,“We now have friends for life.And,for a day,that border fence with its wire melted away.”4.What did Heiss find when hiking on his farm?A.A

skeptical that something as simple as a quiz could positively affect students academic performance.He decided to dig deeper and conduct an analytic study of existing research to see if there was any proof to the idea.What he discovered truly surprised him.Crede analyzed data from previously published studies that examined 52 classes with almost 8,000 students,primarily college-level courses,to determine if frequent quizzes improved the students academic performance.Laboratory settings were kept out of the study because Crede wanted to observe whether similar studies from labs would apply to general classrooms.Crede discovered that when students are quizzed over class material at least once a week,they tend to perform better on midterm and final exams compared to students who did not take quizzes.He also found that students who took frequent quizzes were less likely to fail the class,especially if they were struggling with the course content.Students who struggle the most in a class seem to benefit the greatest from frequent quizzes.The other surprising thing was how much quizzes helped reduce failure rates in classes.The chances of passing a class went through the roof where instructors used this.In addition to quiz frequency,another factor that seemed to positively affect students performance was immediate feedback from instructors.Also,quizzes that required students to answer with written responses proved more beneficial to their understanding of class material compared to multiple-choice questions.Asking teachers to grade written quizzes daily or weekly may discourage some from carrying them out in their classes.Instead,it is recommended that instructors give online quizzes that can be automatically graded by a course management system.Quiz attributes(属性) proved insignificant in the study,including whether the tests were pop quizzes or planned,or if they were online or on paper.8.What did Crede do to ensure his studys accuracy?A.He focused on what happened in classrooms.B.He researched as many students as he could.C.He made laboratory settings as real as possible.D.He gave easy quizzes to make every student do well.9.What did Crede discover in his study?A.Frequent quizzes could remove students failure in classes.B.Instructors feedback was more important than frequent quizzes.C.Frequent quizzes were especially useful to the struggling students.D.Multiple-choice questions shouldnt be included in frequent quizzes.10.What may be a disadvantage of frequent quizzes for teachers?A.Accessing the Internet less frequently.B.Having too many exam papers to mark.C.Being unable to get appropriate test materials.D.Finding it hard to choose the right type of quiz.11.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Quizzes Stimulate a Passion for CreationB.Quizzes Improve Academic PerformanceC.Quizzes Create a Heavy BurdenD.Quizzes Increase BoredomDIn todays difficult economic time,its natural to rethink your goal of studying abroad.Does the benefit outweigh the cost?The answer,in fact,is yes,when you look at the road ahead.When the economy becomes more challenged,competition for the workforce increases,and employers look for employees with the best credentials(资历).Having an overseas degreefrom a university where strong English skills are requiredcan make all the difference.The added expertise of a foreign degree,along with more cultural experience,can make you more qualified for many jobs.A 50-year study of 3,400 students shows that studying abroad is usually a defining moment in a young persons life and continues to impact the participants life for years after the experience.82% said that they acquired skills that influenced their career path.70% stated that it ignited(点燃) an interest in a career direction that they pursued after the experience.And the effect on ones career can be equally strong.A study by the Queensland,Australia government showed:61% of employers stated overseas studying experience was positive on a graduate resume.72% of employers felt that a second language made a graduate a more attractive employee.Still,theres the question of how to pay for studying overseas.But the cost doesnt have to be as high as you think.Scholarships may be available to cover some or all of these costs.And,there are plenty of ways to further offset(抵消)the cost through financial tips,advice and grants(补助金).12.What do we know about studying abroad from the second study?A.It helps one to get a job.B.It affects ones whole life.C.It affects ones career direction.D.It helps one to make more money.13.How does the author try to prove his idea?A.By giving examples.B.By answering questions.C.By listing facts and numbers.D.By offering advice and solutions.14.What does the author think about the university fees?A.Financial tips must increase the university fees.B.Scholarships can cover some of the costs.C.Money is a serious problem for studying abroad.D.There are few ways for the students to earn money.15.What does the author intend to tell us in the passage?A.Studying abroad is easy.B.Studying abroad is rewarding.C.The effects of studying abroad.D.The problems with studying abroad.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Learning a new language like English can be a challenge.16Classes are important,and so is disciplined practice.It can even be fun.Here are some guidelines to help you become a better English learner.Study every day.Learning any new language is a time-consuming process,more than 300 hours according to some estimates.Rather than try and cram a few hours of review once or twice a week,most experts say short,regular study sessions are more effective.1718 Instead of focusing on one single task for the entire study session,try mixing things up.Study a little grammar,then do a short listening exercise,then perhaps read an article on the same topic.Dont do too much;20 minutes on three different exercises is plenty.The variety will keep you engaged and make studying more fun.Read,watch,and listen.Reading English-language newspapers and books,listening to music,or watching TV can also help you improve your written and verbal comprehension skills.19Write it down.Repetition is key as youre learning English,so writing is a great way to practice.20By making a habit of writing,youll also find your reading and comprehension skills improved over time.You may even discover youve got a talent for writing.A.Keep things fresh.B.Play vocabulary and grammar games.C.But with regular study,it can be done.D.It doesnt matter whether you use a computer or pen and paper.E.Non-native English speakers sometimes struggle with doing so.F.As little as 30 minutes a day can help you improve your English skills over time.G.By doing so repeatedly,youll absorb things like speech patterns,accents,and grammar.第二部分语言运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。A lonely girl found two starving songbirds in the woods.She took them home and put them in a 21 cage.She cared
