【牡一中2011—2012学年度上学期期中】We can read of things that happened 5.000 years ago in the Near East, where people first learned to write. 1 The only way that they can preserve their history is to recount it as sagas ---- 2 These legends are useful because they can tell us something about migrations of people who lived long ago, but none could write down what they did. Anthropologists(人类学家) wondered where the remote ancestors of the Polynesian peoples now living in the Pacific Islands came from. 3
But the first people who were like ourselves lived so long ago that even their sagas, if they had any, are forgotten. 4
Fortunately, however, ancient men made tools of stone, because this is easier to shape than other kinds. 5 Stone does not decay, and so the tools of long ago have remained when even the bones of the men who made them have disappeared without trace.
They may also have used wood and skins, but these have rotted away.
descriptions of what important events happened in ancient times.
But there are some parts of the world where even now people can’t write.
legends handed down from one generation of story-tellers to another.
So scientists have neither history nor legends to help them to find out where the first “modern men” came from.
But there is some doubt who began to write.
The sagas of these people explain that some of them came from Indonesia about 2,000 years ago.

If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows this, and nobody would think of questioning this fact. 1 When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it regularly, either consciously or unconsciously. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough opportunity to become strong. 2 One of them exercises his arms and legs by playing tennis, while the other sits in a chair or a motor car all day.
If a friend complains that his arms are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame, or that he is just unlucky, and few of us realize that it is just as much his own fault as if it was his arms or legs that were weak. 3 But all of us can, if we have ordinary bodies and brains, improve our strength and our memory by the same means — practice.
Have you ever noticed that people who cannot read or write usually have better memories than those who can? 4 It’s because those who cannot read or write have to remember things. They cannot write them down in a little notebook and they have to remember dates, time and prices, names, songs and stories, so their memory is being exercised the whole time 5 .
A. What do you think of it?
B. Yet many people do not seem to know that the memory works in the same way.
C. Not all of us can become extremely strong or extremely clever.
D. So if you want a good memory, practice remembering.
E. Someone else says that he is poor in health.
F. Why is this?
G. The position is exactly the same as that of two people.

This morning, I remembered a childhood memory. It made realize that some of the acts of kindness that we might do naturally might never be forgotten by the receivers.
I was six years old. My foster mother(养母)was not the kind of person I would have chosen to stay with. 1 On the walk back home I was doing what any six year old would have been doing -- playing. Because of that I dropped the bag of flour and it burst open spilling（洒出）the flour all over the ground. 2
So I ran back to the store and asked the clerk if I could have an empty bag and a scoop(铲子)so I can gather up as much of the flour as possible. There was no way I was going home empty handed.
3 There was no chance of saving it now!
4 He came over to me and asked what was wrong. I told him that I would probably get the beating of my life if I went back without the flour I had been sent for. He took me by the hand and led me back to the store where he bought me a new sack of flour-and some candy!
5
I never told my foster mother about the kind gentleman but I’m twenty-three years old now and I still remember him and his kindness.
A．Then he wiped my tears and sent me on my way home.
B．The driver lent me some money for another bag of flour.
C．The driver saw the sadness on my face and pulled over.
D．One morning she sent me to the store for a bag of flour.
E．One morning she allowed me to play with the neighboring kids.
F．I knew that this meant I would be in big trouble when I got home.
G．Returning to the scene of the accident, to my horror, I saw a car drive right on top of the flour!

What makes a good school?
I'm a parent of two elementary students．The experience that my children are going through now in the elementary school is so different from mine when I was at their age．What I think of a good school is communication between teachers．students and parents． 1 Parent-teaeher communication guarantees that a child is educated in the same way and in turn a child will build special bonds in communication between their teachers and parents．
2 My children return home telling me that their teachers ignore their questions when they raise their hands and don’t talk much．On the other hand，I feel the same when I write notes to school． 3 This is telling me there is a lack in communication from the school teachers nowadays as their life is so overwhelmed by the over-crowded schools we have in the US．
However．choosing a career in education is not just for a good job．A teacher should really have heart in touching every child’s life． 4 Even now，I still remember all my elementary school teachers’names． 5 The answer lies in the fact that they spent every minute of their precious time helping me and answering all my questions with patience．When you have teachers who are willing to spend time for any child and communicate with parents，it is what I consider a GREAT school for a child to attend，not just GOOD．
A．I don’t get any response from the teachers to my questions，not even a one-word response．
B．There are different ways of communication, according to different cultures．
C．Why is that?
D．Strong communication is very important to a child’s education．
E．I feel that schools nowadays don’t communicate with parents enough and neither is involvement．
F．My elementary school teachers all touched my life．
G．What do you think of it?

Today，kids have more worries and face more pressures than ever before.Here are a few tips to help your child focus on and do well in school.
●Create a personal schedule
Recording everything that must be done on a calendar or “to do” list will help him to keep track of important dates and deadlines.If he keeps it in a visible place he will have no problem acknowledging upcoming events and will be better able to plan how and where to spend his time.
●Watch the clock
　2　 I also recommend setting his clock or watch five minutes ahead since it's always easy to run late.When it comes to something like catching a bus，just five minutes can make a significant difference.
●Focus
He should train himself to be able to concentrate alone on one specific task.This is much easier in a noise­free environment.No TV or radio should be on to distract him.
●　3　
Lack of sleep is proven to harm us physically.The more sleep we get，the more alert we are.We thus have more energy to handle life's daily tasks.The average adult needs at least six hours of sleep a night and the average child needs at least eight.
●Stay in shape
Through spending time outdoors or playing sports with friends，he can “blow off some steam” so to speak，as well as re­energize.　4　
●Talk through your problems
Be able to share his concerns with you. 　5　 If you make it clear that you understand him and are willing to help，not only will you contribute to his emotional health but you'll help build an open and honest relationship as well.
A．Sharing feelings often makes them easier to deal with.
B．Help your child work better to realize his aim.
C．Setting an alarm for the morning is a must.
D．Get enough sleep.
E．Help your child do better in school.
F．Encourage your child to be positive.
G．Encourage him to get outside.
本文主要就孩子如何在学校如何能够集中注意力并觉得更好，给出了自己的建议。
1．E主题型。在本文的第二句“Here are a few tips to help your child focus on and do well in school.”点明了此题的主题，故E项用在空白处作题目为最佳选项。
2．C承上启下型。由设空处前面的标题以及后面提到设闹钟的有关事项，故选C项。
3．D主题型。由后文提到的睡眠的有关信息，可知空白处应选D项。

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
About 2 months ago I realized how often my mother's caregiver(看护者)would do kind things for me. 1 She always does things which touch me so mush, like picking oranges and juicing them, making my bed for me when my muscles are so tight I can’t bend over easily, clearing the leaves and weeding the front yard..... those kinds of things.
2 But I decided to help her, since she is paid a set wage by the agency we went through, and has a large family to raise. I would put a dollar in a decorative box every time I see one of those kinds of things that she has done for me.
I have already changed out 20 single dollar bills for a $20 bill TWICE and have probably about 70 in there. 3 When the time comes (and it will, probably this year) when we can no longer afford a caregiver for my mother, I will have a box of money that will say thank you in a clear way.
4 She is our own precious angel. And while I know she does these things out of kindness and love for us, it will be my chance to do something out of love and kindness for her. Because it is just a dollar every now and then, it is hardly missed. But in 6 months, or however long it is before the money runs out, it will have grown to quite a bundle of love.
I don’t want the day to come when she will no longer be with us. The reason is that I will miss her presence terribly. 5
A．However, I can hardly wait to give box of money to her!
B．Not just little things, but only things.
C．It is just like all the bundles of things she has done for me.
D．We’ve had her for 2.5 years, and she's like family to us.
E．I always thank her, and she says she enjoys it.
F．That’s my own “thank you for your many kindnesses” box.
G．It hopefully will help to tide her over until she gets a new job.

The hardest language
People often ask which is the most difficult language to learn, and it is not easy to answer because there are many factors to take into consideration. Firstly, in a first language the differences are unimportant as people learn their mother tongue naturally. 1
A native speaker of Spanish, for example, will find Po
