My family lived in Triumph,Idaho,the USA,an old mining town with a population of 33.All
of the kids at my age were boys.People of all ages always looked out for me,but they also brought
me some embarrassment.
I was born at home.The doctor overseeing my arrival was a family friend.Dad had then been a
soldier serving in the navy and figured we should save some money.
At first,my parents didn’t have a name for me.My name on my birth certificate still read
Baby Girl.And that’s what they called me until I was almost 4.When they planned our first train
trip to Mexico for vacation,we needed passports,which made it easier to come up with a name.My
father liked the sound of Picabo,an old Native American settlement in the south.My mother and
father agreed on Picabo. www.sdzxlm.com
As a child,I was afraid of the dark,but it was manageable.Another fear was the Rhode Island
Red.Each time I went out to the hen house to get eggs,he always pecked(啄)me as if I had stolen
the eggs laid by his lover.I began carrying a stick to keep him away.However,he was always
following me.Later we became good friends.I also liked playing hide-and-seek with him.
Our house was one of four that stood next to each other on an upper street in town.It was a
one-story white cottage with no basement and no foundation,but Dad dug a cellar(地窖).All of our
heat came from a wood-burning stove,where our food was cooked over an open flame.Both of my
parents were great cooks.
24.Why did people in the town take care of the author?
A.She was the only girl of the same age.
B.She was the daughter of a miner.
C.Her father was a doctor’s friend.
D.Her parents were living in the town.
25.Why did the parents decide to name the author?
A.To have the sound of Picabo.
B.To go on a foreign trip.
C.To make an agreement with each other.
D.To realize the author’s wish.
26.What do we know about the Rhode Island Red?

C.He was a rooster friend of the author’s.D.He played hide-and-seek with his lover.

The number of snow geese arriving in the Arctic each spring to breed has risen over the past
few decades.At first,wildlife biologists saw this as an environmental crisis,pointing to marshes(湿
地)where plants were eaten by the hungry birds.In response,the federal government loosened
restrictions on snow goose hunting.
But how do the Inuit,in whose backyard this is taking place,view the situation? A recent plan
is giving Inuit wildlife experts the opportunity to lend their knowledge to managing the species.The
snow goose study,which is supported in part by Polar Knowledge Canada and led by the Kivalliq
Wildlife Board(an Inuit organization that manages hunting,trapping and fishing in central Nunavut),
asked the experts to share their generations of knowledge about snow geese and their views on what
should be done.
“The community had concerns about controlling the population,”says Ron,a community
officer of the Kivalliq Inuit Association ,” and Inuit snow goose knowledge had never been
recorded.People wanted to pass on what they knew.“Inuit experts disagreed with that,considering
it wasteful and unnecessary.They felt hunting more snow geese in an organized way,such as paying
local hunters a minimal amount of money and distributing the birds to disadvantaged families or
operating a limited commercial hunt by employing local people,would be appropriate.
Inuit wildlife experts will plan to call on scientists this fall.They say they hope to search for a
common way forward and that while there may be too many snow geese in some areas,it’s not a
crisis.Biologists now generally agree that there seem to be plenty of undamaged marshes available
and newer research shows that some damaged areas can recover.
“Now that we have recorded and documented Inuit knowledge of snow geese,”says Ron,”
when facing the crisis other people will be able to use the information to help manage the species,
which is fundamental to dealing with it effectively.”
28.Why did the federal government loosen limitations on snow goose hunting?
A.To make more profits.
B.To create more marshes.
C.To wipe out the hungry birds.
D.To protect the ecosystem.
29.Which of the following might Inuit wildlife experts agree with?
A.Organizing large commercial hunts.
B.Using snow goose hunting to man’s best advantage.C.Regarding too many snow geese as a crisis.
D.Hunting as many snow geese as possible.
30.What might biologists think about the marshes’future now?
A.It’s a bit promising. B.It’s unpredictable.
C.It’s too discouraging. D.It’s hard to get better.
31.What does the underlined word“it”in the last paragraph refer to?
A.The species. B.Inuit knowledge.
C.The crisis. D.Inuit research.

Cortana.Alexa.Siri.These are names of robotic voices that are often programmed on electronic
tablets.They also become default(默认)identities for people with speech disorders who rely off
technology to communicate . Now some speech scientists are developing personalized voices to
reflect the broader diversity of the people who use them.To do it,they are tapping into a vast
network of volunteers who are donating their voices to share with people who cannot speak.
The effort to build an international“Human Voicebank”has attracted more than 17,000
volunteers from 110 countries,including Priyanka Pandya,a 16-year-old from Columbia,Md.,who
plans to spend her winter vacation recording a string of sentences into her computer.“To be able to
give somebody the gift of voice,I think that’s really,really powerful,”she said.
“Everyone has a voice,”said Rupal Patel,founder of VocaliD,the company that started the
voicebank.“Even people who are unable to speak have sounds that are unique to them.”Her
company designs personalized voices by recording the unique sounds of the user,and then mixing
them with 6 to 10 hours of recordings from a voice donor,matched by age,gender and region.The
company is developing voices now for its first 100 customers.
Also,people’s voices change.The company is looking for donors who are willing to record
their voices,and then record them again a few years later,as they get older.
Some of the first customers say they are happy with the results.John A.Gregoire was one of
the first customers to receive a personalized voice from VocaliD last December.The voice came
eight years after he developed ALS(肌萎缩侧索硬化症)and more than six years have passed since
his voice became unintelligible to everyone except his wife and youngest son.“Having a distinctive
voice is like getting something back that was stolen,”John said.
32.What can we know about the voicebank?
A.It collects all kinds of voices.
B.It gains strong public support.
C.It helps to recognize special voices.
D.It offers people personalized voices free.
33.What does the example of John A.Gregoire stress?A.Customers’desire for personalized voices.
B.VocaliD’s efforts to develop personalized voices.
C.Customers’satisfaction with personalized voices.
D.VocaliD’s success in designing personalized voices.
34.What does the underlined word“unintelligible”mean in the last paragraph?
A.Unclear. B.Soft.
C.Incomplete. D.Rough.
35.What is the main idea of the text?
A.Volunteers donate their voices to VocaliD.
B.VocaliD is devoted to building a voicebank.
C.The Human Voicebank helps people with speech problems.
D.The Human Voicebank wins fame among people with speech problems.

There are times when people come into your life,and you know at once that they are sure to be
there.They serve some sort of purpose,teach you a lesson or help figure out who you are or who
you want to become.You never know who these people may be:your classmate,neighbor,
teacher,long-lost friend or even a real stranger.But 36 ,you know that at that very moment they
will affect your life in some serious way.
37 .However,on reflection you realize that without getting over them you would have never
realized your potential ability and strength.
Everything happens for a reason and nothing happens by chance or with good or bad
luck. 38 .Without these small tests,life would be like a smooth road to nowhere.The people
affecting your life,and the successes and failures you experience,help to create who you are and
who you become.
Even the bad experiences can be learned from.In fact,they are probably the most important
ones.If someone hurts you,forgive them. 39 .
40 ,for you may never be able to experience it again.Talk to people you have never talked to
before,and really listen.You should set your sights high,hold your head up,tell yourself you are
a great individual and believe in yourself.Create your own life and then go out and live it with
absolutely no regrets.
Most importantly,if you love someone,tell him or her,for you never know what tomorrow
may have in store.
A.when you look eyes into them
B.because you are likely to get addicted to them
C.Don’t forget to embrace those unpleasant momentsD.Make every day count and appreciate every moment
E.Illness,injury and love all occur to test the limits of your soul
F.Sometimes things happening to you may seem challenging at first
G.for they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious

It is hard to imagine Colorado without Texas.By that,I mean the long history of the two states
61 it comes to winter skiing.
The snow—covered state and Texans 62 (make)for one another centuries ago.It means the
contrast 63 our hot summers and their cold climates with our famously flat area compared to
their mountains.Fleeing to a ski spot is 64 exciting change for a Texan.That’s why so many have
vacation 65 (cottage)in the mountains.
In Texas,ski fever knows no limits.One 66 (rely)example is the Texas Scottish Rite Hospital
for Children.Since 1981,the hospital has taken a group of teenage patients to the mountains who
can’t walk.With special 67 (equip),these kids can not only do the sport,but they can build
confidence and independence.They display a large amount of energy,which makes us all 68
(vast)inspired. www.sdzxlm.com
In my mind,every great ski fan,Texan or not,needs 69 (have)a good knowledge of trends
and other opportunities around the top slopes( 山 坡 ) . I hope all the delights out there in the

Dear Mike.
I'm so proud that your city is going to hold such a speech competition to promote Australians’
awareness of Chinese culture.China has many traditional festivals,but I'd like to recommend the
Lantern Festival most.
The Lantern Festival is celebrated on the 15th of the first month in the lunar calendar,which
marks the end of Chinese New Year celebrations.During the festival,children go out at night
carrying red lanterns symbolizing good fortune and solve riddles on lanterns . As early as the
Western Han Dynasty,it started to become a festival of great significance.Nowadays,the festival
has become popular in Western countries,especially in cities with large Chinese communities.
If you need more information about the festival,just feel free to ask me.Wish you success in the
competition!
Yours, Li Hua

I 1ike to do sports and play video games in my free time.Sometimes.I play video games by
myself.I also invite friends over to play.I really like games that deal with sports,role-playing,
adventure,but I don’t buy all games since I know that certain types of games are not suitable for
children . Playing video games helps me reduce stress and kill some time , but it also can be
addictive.A lot of people are concerned that people waste too much time playing games and do not
get enough exercise because they sit in front of a computer or TV too much.Also,some people say that children as well as adults tend to shut themselves away and fail to develop relationships with
others.I think if you control how much you play them—I mean,not playing them too much—then
playing video games isn’t a bad way to spend some of your time.
