When is the right time to get kids involved in teamwork and what does it mean to be part of a
team? There are many great ways to introduce kids to team building. Use team building games and activities
to get kids to understand the meaning of being in a team.
Try to find some games that have kids work together on some kind of problem solving. Children
naturally have a shorter attention span (一段时间) than adults so present it in a funny way. Create a reward
system for teams that are able to work together in order to reach a common goal. When they solve the
problem and receive a reward, it gives them initiative to keep working hard and cooperating with others. The
best games are those that require direct communication between team members.
Organize a game of 20 questions for the kids to play while building a team. Draw up a series of cards
with different questions on each. Have each child select a card and then ask another question on it casually.
It’s a great way for the kids to share and discover common interests. Kids need to be entertained and social
when in a large group. This will lighten the mood greatly and help the quieter team members to come out of
their shells.
Have the kids sit in a circle or around a table and share their favorite things. Start with something like
movies or books and move on to anything from toys to animals. Sharing interests creates discussion. When
you share interests with someone, it is easier to relate to them. Kids finally want to be friends with most other 2
kids. Encouraging them to get along socially is always positive. By sharing interests they can form valuable
bonds that will serve them as both individuals and as a team.
11.The first paragraph serves as a(n) _____.
A.explanation B.comment C.introduction D.background
12.The underlined word “initiative” in paragraph 2 probably means “ ”
A.being powered B.being active C.being patient D.being satisfying
13.Which of the following is NOT true about a game of 20 questions?
A.It can make kids discover common interests B.It helps the quiet kids to become active
C.It can help the kids relax D.It requires kids to answer questions in turn
B
The mobile phone enables us to stay in contact with our family and friends at all times in most area since
it came into being in the 1980s. however, because of the quick acceptance and extensive usage of mobiles in
our lives, we have missed our on important step, namely, the appropriate use.
Driving a car
Do not use your phone while you are driving! You could concentrate on your conversation and forget
to look where you are going, or you could take your eyes off the road to look at the phone's display or to
press in a number. Either way, you could cause a terrible accident.
In a restaurant
There is probably nothing more annoying than a diner receiving or making a call near you when you
are in a restaurant. The icy glares (冷眼) you receive should be warning enough that it is not appreciated.
Turn your phone off and use your message service to return calls after you leave.
At the cinema
Do not give way to the desire to call a friend if the film is boring, or if you want to find out what
happens.You could become the target of all the angry cinema customers.
At the theatre
There is no more icy glare than that of a theatre goer who has paid a lot of money to see a show and
hears your phone playing a tone. It goes without saying that you will be seen as a socially unacceptable
person in this situation.
In hospitals
This is probably the most important place to make sure your phone is switched off. Your phone can
disturb life-saving electronic equipment in hospitals, so it is necessary that your phone is switched off before
you enter.
On planes
Your phone might disturb navigational equipment and cause a horrible accident so you should switch it
off before boarding a plane.

One in four boys still struggle to write their own names by the age of five, according to a new survey
that shows a huge sex gap in young children’s abilities.Three in ten five-year-old boys have trouble reciting
the alphabet (字母) and one in five are unable to count to 10, according to the survey carried out in England
and Wales. The statistics (统计数字) have been published for the first time today.
Girls were better than boys at most levels. 78% of girls were able to hold a pencil and write recognisable
letters, compared with 62% of boys. Nearly three-quarters of five-year-old girls (74%) could write a simple
shopping list, or a letter to Father Christmas, but only half of boys (54%) could do so at the same age. Over a
quarter (26%) of boys aged five could not write their names, compared with 15% of girls.
Girls were also shown to be more creative than boys: 71% of five-year-old girls were found to be
imaginative in art and design, music, dance, role play and stories. They responded in a variety of ways to
what they saw, heard, smelt, touched and felt, compared with just over half (52%) of boys.
But boys showed a slightly better "knowledge and understanding of the world". More than half (54%)
could build objects using appropriate tools and techniques compared with 48% of girls and more could
identify (识别) everyday technology (76% as opposed to 74%). Around 7% of boys and 6% of girls could
add and subtract (减法).
17. From the third paragraph we know that _______.
A. boys are more creative than girls in art and design
B. girls have a better understanding of the world
C. girls are better at telling stories
D. boys are more sensitive to what they smell
18. In the passage we are told that ______.

B. nearly 62% of boys aged five could write a shopping list
C. 20% of five-year-old boys are unable to recite the alphabet
D. girls like to write letters to Father Christmas more
20. According to the passage, girls have more advantages in _____________.
A. building objects using right tools and techniques B. identifying everyday technology
C. adding and subtracting D. learning and using language
63. What’s the main idea of the passage?

C. Sex gap in young children’s physical development.
D. Sex gap in young children’s mental development.
D
It is any wonder that many students fail to perform, not because they lack ability, but because of the
unique pressure of the exam room?
We are competitive animals and we are occasionally going to get nervous . Removing pressure
altogether from life, in many ways, an impossible dream.
But how it happens? Consider what happens when you are walking along the street. None of us actually
think about the mechanics of how we walk. But now imagine that you are walking along a narrow path with a
10000-foot precipice（悬崖） on either side. Now, we might think about how we are moving our feet. And
this, of course, is when we are most likely to fall. Walking is , when you think about it, quite a complex set of
movements and is we think too much about them, we are far more likely to get confused. This, incidentally,
is why walking feels so strange when we are in front of a lot of people.
Instead of using the subconscious（潜意识的） part of the brain, which is the most efficient way to 4
deliver a familiar skill（like walking）,we use the conscious part. And this is when it all goes wrong.
To put it another way, in order to overcome nervousness we must trust our subconscious ability. And ,it
turns out that we are far more likely to do so when we are familiar with the situation we are about to face. Of
course, even when we are well prepared, we may still feel terribly nervous----but at least we will be more
equipped to deal with our nerves.
Furthermore, we may also benefit from reminding ourselves that the big moment is, from a different
perspective（视角）, not that big after all. Even a huge exam is not as important as a loving family, or good
health. And even a huge job interview can be put into perspective by looking up at the stars and remembering
that it is all rather little in the grand scheme of things.
21. What does the author think of pressure?
A.It’s part of our life. B.It can improve our performance
C.It can be got rid of D.It does the greatest harm to students
22.The example of walking is given to show _______.
A.how we become nervous B.the mechanics of walking
C.the negative effects of pressure D. how subconscious thinking affects us
23.What makes us nervous when we walk in front of a lot of people?
A.Lack of practice B.Conscious efforts
C.Disturbance from the crowd D.Expectation from the audience
24.How should we look at an exam or a job interview according to the author?
A.It’s a very precious opportunity B.It’s a big moment of life
C.It’s a piece of cake. D.It’s no big deal.
25.All the following can help up overcome nervousness EXCEPT______
A.taking it easy B.being well prepared
C.paying special attention D.using subconscious ability

A hobby is an investment of time. It also can be an investment of money and commitment. Many people
choose to develop more than one type of hobby. 26. When it comes to choosing the hobby, consider the
following factors.
Hobbies are usually an activity of some sort that brings out a certain skill that you have. When you have
a talent like painting or woodworking, it can be easy to determine which hobby suits your skill. 27. Skill
can be developed and challenged as you go along. It is not a necessary requirement. A hobby is fitting
because you love it, not because you’re a professional at it.
Some people particularly enjoy taking part in hobbies that they can do in a group with others. It can be a
lot more fun to join a hobby group than to sit alone in your basement. 28. It’s important to share interests
and network with other hobby enthusiasts that do what you do.
Hobbies are generally an activity that you undertake because of the joy it brings you. Of course many
people have discovered the joy that also comes with a hobby that earns you a living. _29 . Just make sure
you make the choice that fits your lifestyle and personal preference.
30 . But most of the skilled hobbies like art,building or writing have a series of lessons or tutorials
that you can take to further your skills. In some cases it’s a really good idea to take lessons, especially if you
are clueless as to where or how to begin. Step by step books for most hobbies can often be found in
bookstores as well.
A. It can be a necessary part of selecting the hobby that is right for you.
B. Whether it’s full time, part time or not at all,you must decide whether your hobby applies to you.
C. Look one up or start your own.
D. Read hobby books to learn more about your chosen hobby!5
E. Make a list of things that you enjoy or don’t know about.

Dear Sir,
I’m a regular passenger of your traffic company with the name Wang Lu. I have been pleased with your
services for years, but I now feel very disappointed. I’m writing this letter to you to complain about your bad
service.
Neither the driver nor the conductor on the bus is friendly and polite to the passengers. Worse still, they
often quarrel with the passengers because of their rude attitudes. In addition, another annoying aspect of your
service is that your schedules are not regular so that many people were late for their work due to the delay of
your company. Finally, the bus is very dirty and gives off a terrible smell.
So I do hope you can improve your work .
Your sincerely,
Wang Lu
