一、阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

A
Tom was one of the brightest boys in the year,with supportive parents.But when he was 15 he suddenly stopped trying.He left school at 16 with only two scores for secondary school subjects.One of the reasons that made it cool for him not to care was the power of his peer（同龄人）group.
The lack of right male role models in many of their lives—at home and particularly in the school environment—means that their peers are the only people they have to judge themselves against.
They don't see men succeeding in society so it doesn't occur to them that they could make something of themselves.Without male teachers as a role model,the effect of peer actions and street culture is all-powerful.Boys want to be part of a club.However,schools can provide the environment for change,and provide the right role models for them.Teachers need to be trained to stop that but not in front of a child's peers.You have to do it one to one, because that is when you see the real child.
It's pointless sending a child home if he or she has done wrong.They see it as a welcome day off to watch television or play computer games.Instead,schools should have a special unit where a child who has done wrong goes for the day and gets advice about his problems—somewhere he can work away from his peers and go home after the other children.
1.Why did Tom give up studying?
A.He disliked his teachers. B.His parents no longer supported him.
C.It's cool for boys of his age not to care about studies. D.There were too many subjects in his secondary school.
2.What seems to have a bad effect on students like Tom?
A.Peer groups. B.A special unit. C.The student judges. D.The home environment.
3.What should schools do to help the problem schoolboys?
A.Wait for their change patiently. B.Train leaders of their peer groups.
C.Stop the development of street culture. D.Give them lessons in a separate area.
4.A teacher's work is most effective with a schoolboy when he .
A.is with the boy alone B.teaches the boy a lesson
C.sends the boy home as punishment D.works together with another teacher
B
Silence is unnatural to man.He begins life with a cry and ends it in stillness.In between he does all he can to make a noise in the world,and he fears silence more than anything else.Even his conversation is an attempt to prevent a fearful silence.If he is introduced to another person,and a number of pauses occur in the conversation,he regards himself as a failure,a worthless person,and is full of envy of the emptiest-headed chatterbox（喋喋不休的人）. He knows that ninety nine percent of human conversation means no more than the buzzing of a fly,but he is anxious to join in the buzz and to prove that he is a man and not a waxwork figure（蜡塑人像）.
The aim of conversation is not,for the most part,to communicate ideas;it is to keep up the buzzing sound.There are,it must be admitted,different qualities of buzz;there is even a buzz that is as annoying as the continuous noise made by a mosquito.But at a dinner party one would rather be a mosquito than a quiet person.Most buzzing, fortunately,is pleasant to the ear,and some of it is pleasant even to the mind.He would be a foolish man if he waited until he had a wise thought to take part in the buzzing with his neighbors.
Those who hate to pick up the weather as a conversational opening seem to me not to know the reason why human beings wish to talk.Very few human beings join in a conversation in the hope of learning anything new.Some of them are content if they are merely allowed to go on making a noise into other people's ears,though they have nothing to tell them except that they have seen two or three new plays or that they had food in a Swiss hotel.At the end of an evening,during which they have said nothing meaningful for a long time.They just prove themselves to be
successful conservationists.
5.According to the author,people make conversation to .
A.exchange ideas B.prove their value
C.achieve success in life D.overcome their fear of silence
6.By “the buzzing of a fly”(Para.1),the author means “ ”. .
A.the noise of an insect B.a low whispering sound
C.meaningless talks D.the voice of a chatterbox
7.According to the passage,people usually talk to their neighbors .
A.about whatever they have prepared B.about whatever they want to
C.in the hope of learning something new D.in the hope of getting on well
8.What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?
A.To discuss why people like talking about weather. B.To encourage people to join in conversations.
C.To persuade people to stop making noises. D.To explain why people keep talking.
C
As kids,my friends and I spent a lot of time out in the woods,"The woods" was our part-time address, destination,purpose,and excuse.If I went to a friend's house and found him not at home,his mother might say, "Oh,he's out in the woods,"with a tone of airy acceptance.It's similar to the tone people sometimes use nowadays to tell me that someone I'm looking for is on the golf course or at the gym,or even "away from his desk."For us ten-year-olds,"being out in the woods" was just an excuse to do whatever we feel like for a while.
We sometimes told ourselves that what we were doing in the woods was exploring.Exploring was a more popular idea back then than it is today.History seemed to be mostly about explorers.Our explorations,though,seemed to have less system than the historic kind: something usually came up along the way.Say we stayed in the woods, throwing rocks,shooting frogs,picking blackberries,digging in what we were briefly persuaded was an Italian burial mound.
Often we got "lost" and had to climb a tree to find out where we were.If you read a story in which someone does that successfully,be skeptical: the topmost branches are usually too skinny to
hold weight,and we could never climb high enough to see anything except other trees.There were four or five trees that we visited regularly—tall beeches,easy to climb and comfortable to sit in.
It was in a tree,too,that our days of fooling around in the woods came to an end.By then some of us had reached seventh grade and had begun the rough ride of adolescence.In March,the month when we usually took to the woods again after winter,two friends and I set out to go exploring.We climbed a tree,and all of a sudden it occurred to all three of us at the same time that we really were rather big to be up in a tree.Soon there would be the spring dances on Friday evenings in the high school cafeteria.
9.The author and his fiends were often out in the woods to .
A.spend their free time B.play gold and other sports
C.avoid doing their schoolwork D.keep away from their parents
10.What can we infer from Paragraph 2?
A.The activities in the woods were well planned. B.Human history is not the result of exploration.
C.Exploration should be a systematic activity. D.The author explored in the woods aimlessly.
11.How does the author feel about his childhood?
A.Happy but short. B.Lonely but memorable.
C.Boring and meaningless. D.Long and unforgettable.

The Diet Zone: A Dangerous Place
Diet Coke,diet Pepsi,diet pills,no-fat diet,vegetable diet...We are surrounded by the word "diet" everywhere we look and listen.We have so easily been attracted by the promise and potential of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us.We are paying for products that harm us psychologically and physically.
Diet products significantly weaken us psychologically.On one level,we are not allowing our brain to admit that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight,but in controlling the consumption of fatty,high-calorie, unhealthy foods.Diet products allow us to jump over the thinking stage and go straight for the scale instead.All we have to do is to swallow or recognize the word "diet" in food labels.
On another level,diet products have greater psychological effects.Every time we have a zero-calorie drink,we are telling ourselves without our awareness that we don't have to work to get results.Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain,and that life can be without resistance and struggle.
The danger of diet products lies not only in the psychological effects they have on us,but also in the physical harm that they cause.Diet foods can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are preventing our bodies from having basic nutrients.Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calorie only because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products.Diet products may not be nutritional,and the chemical that go into diet products are potentially dangerous.
Now that we are aware of the effects that diet products have on us,it is time to seriously think about buying them.Losing weight lies in the power of minds,not in the power of chemicals.Once we realize this,we will be much better able to resist diet products,and therefore prevent the psychological harm that comes from using them.
12.From Paragraph 1,we learn that .
A.diet products fail to bring out people's potential B.people have difficulty in choosing diet products
C.diet products are misleading people D.people are fed up with diet products
13.One psychological effect of diet products is that people tend to .
A.try out a variety of diet foods B.hesitate before they enjoy diet foods
C.pay attention to their own eating habits D.watch their weight rather than their diet
14.In Paragraph 3,"gain comes without pain" probably means .
A.losing weight is effortless B.it costs a lot to lose weight
C.diet products bring no pain D.diet products are free from calories
15.Diet products indirectly harm people physically because such products .
A.are over-consumed B.lack basic nutrients
C.are short of chemicals D.provide too much energy

Dear David,
I’m glad that you’ve noticed our efforts directed towards environmental protection.Thank you for your concern.
As too much use of plastic bags has caused serious white pollution,our government encourages
us to use environment-friendly shopping bags.These bags are made of a variety of material that can be easily treated when they become rubbish.Besides,they can be reused.More and more people in China have realized the advantages of such bags and started using them.
I believe that the wide use of these shopping bags can greatly improve our environment.This is one of the many steps we take to make our country an even cleaner place.
Yours,
Li Hua
