I strongly believe that we can have an important effect(影响) on anyone we meet. The right words at just the right time could totally change someone’s life.
Years ago, that’s what happened to me. My life was completely changed because a simple three-word phrase was delivered(发出) at the right time in just the right way.
When I was 3 years old, my parents discovered I was deaf. After asking many doctors and parents of other deaf children, they decided to put me in a normal school. On my first day at school, the other kids made fun of me because of my hearing aid (助听器) and the way I talked. I was hurt deeply and I saw myself as an ugly kid. Mrs. Green, my teacher, changed all of that with a simple three-word phrase. One morning, she asked the class a question. I read her lips(嘴唇) and raised my hand right away. She called on me in front of the blackboard. I took a deep breath and nervously answered Mrs. Green’s question.
I will never forget what happened next. Mrs. Green pointed directly at me. With a big smile she cried: “That’s right, Ben!” For the first time in my young life, my confidence(自信) rose.
At that moment, I decided that no matter how many difficulties I may face, I can overcome(克服) them. Thanks to those three simple words, my whole life changed from that moment.
58. What is a “normal” school, according to the passage?
A. A school where there are many great teachers.
B. A school where students can get more care.
C. A school where most students are healthy.

C. A deaf child shouldn’t go to a normal school.
D. Children shouldn’t make fun of each other.

A. We should be confident B. Mrs. Green is my teacher
C. The words changed my life D. The deaf boy has a good chance
D
It is a cold and dry winter morning. When you wake up, you feel that your throat hurts. You begin to sneeze and later you may cough. You must have a cold! Wait a moment. Could it just be a common cold or the flu (流感) that’s been going around?
A cold gives you a runny nose and cough. But it’s usually easy to deal with. Some take medicine while others drink herbal (药草的) tea or chicken soup. Usually you feel better after a week.
On the other hand, the flu can be much more dangerous. It usually gives you fever. Sometimes it can cause death. According to an American magazine, the worst flu killed about 50 million people from 1918 to 1919.
Don’t worry. If you get a flu vaccine (疫苗), it can stop you from getting the virus (病毒). Flu vaccines work by giving the body a small amount of flu viruses. This causes your body to develop antibodies (抗体). So next time you get the flu, the antibodies should help you.
The flu virus changes every few years. So there are so many types of flu, such as H1N1 and H5N1. The antibodies for one type of flu can’t help us against all types of flu. That’s why we need to get the vaccine every year.
However, good health habits may also help stop you developing a cold or flu. Washing your hands often helps stop you from getting viruses. It is also important to get regular exercise and eat healthy food. All these can help you strengthen your immune system (增强免疫系统).
62. If you have a common cold, usually you’ll feel better after ______ days.
A. 7 B. 10 C. 15 D. 20
63. What does the underlined “it” refer to?
A. A flu virus. B. A flu vaccine. C. Herbal tea. D. Chicken soup.
64. We need to get a flu vaccine every year because ______.
A. the flu is very dangerous
B. we probably have a cold in winter
C. the flu virus changes every few years
D. you don’t need to take any medicine after that
65. The following ways can help stop the flu EXCEPT ______.
A. staying indoors B. getting regular exercise
C. eating healthy food D. washing our hands often

We need animals. Every animal has its place in the balance(平衡) of nature. We should try to help save the animals.
Some people think zoos are good places. The zoos provide the animals with comfortable and safe living places. If the animals get hurt or ill, people will take care of them. The zoo is a good place to know the rules in the wild world. We can be much closer to nature. We can know more about the animals in the zoos by watching, listening even smelling instead of just looking at the pictures in books.
Some people don’t think animals feel happy in the zoos. Animals like pandas, wolves and bears usually live in the wild. They play and find food by themselves. They are free and happy in the wild. If they are in the zoos, food is enough and rooms are comfortable. They needn’t do their best to find food to eat or places to stay in. They just walk around, sleep day and night, but they are not free at all.
I think we should build national parks as wild life nature reserves to protect animals. If we do nothing, the number of wild animals will be much smaller.
76 animals should be in the zoos
l The zoos 77 comfortable and safe living places to the animals and people will look after the animals if they get hurt or ill.
l People can be much 78 to nature.
l People can 79 , listen even smell to know more about the animals.
l Animals don’t 80 to worry about their food or rooms.
Why animals should be in the 81
l Animals can learn to live by themselves instead of 82 day and night.
l Animals are 83 and happy.
I think we should build national parks to 84 animals.
If we do nothing, there will be 85 wild animals.

We know everyone should be confident in our study and work. Self-confidence(自信) is very i 86 to us. We can do nothing well w 87 it.
Madam Curie once said, “Life is not e 88 for any one of us. We must work, and above all we must believe in o 89 .” With the support of self-confidence, Madam Curie discovered the element radium and made great contributions(贡献) to s 90 . And this is true of many other
