Brian was a funny student. He loved watching comedies (喜剧) best and hoped to become a comedy actor one day.
When he heard about the talent show to be held at this school, Brian decided to take part. He had never acted on stage before, and he was very excited. But some students laughed at him. “You are not funny but silly,” Ken, one of his classmates, said to his face. “No one will like what you do,” another boy also said to him, loudly.
Brian couldn’t understand why they were so unkind to him. For a moment, he thought about giving up the show. But he remembered how much his friends liked his jokes, and also his teachers said he was very funny. So he decided to prepare for the show.
Brian did a great job at the talent show. Everyone loved his performance, and he won the first prize! His teachers and friends were proud of him. Even so, Ken told Brian that he was not funny, and that he would never be successful. Brian didn’t understand why Ken said so, but he realized that it had nothing to do with him. He confidently continued to work towards his goal.
As the years went on, Brian met more people like Ken. “You’ll do a terrible job,” they said to him. Luckily, most people encouraged him and some helped him to become even funnier. He got a lot of opportunities to perform in movies. He was even invited to appear on television. His fans thanked him because his comedies made them feel good when they were unhappy.
Now Brian is a big comedy star! He is doing what he loves best. He never feels stressed like those unkind people, and he laughs all day long!
21. Brian decided to prepare for the show because _______.
A. he was invited by a TV station B. he wasn’t busy acting in movies
C. Ken was expecting his performance D. his friends liked his jokes
22. After winning the first prize, Brian _______.

The idea of changing the world seems very crazy, but there are a number of small everyday things we can do to make the world better.
Alisia Orosco, 10, wanted to show her love and care to the sick kids at University Children’s Hospital in Texas, where her brother had been a patient. She earned money by doing part-time jobs and used it to buy different toys for the children in hospital. Now she visits three hospitals every year with bags of toys.
High school students in a town of Washington made a difference in the lives of some poor children by building a playground at a workers’ camp. They got a lot of help from building supply stores which provided free building materials for the project.
Teens in New Jersey decided to offer their help at the local soup kitchen where people with no homes can get free food. But there wasn’t one. They created a one-day soup kitchen and were able to feed 60 poor people and allowed them to take the rest home. Their efforts got more people to understand the great need of the poor in their community. Because of their efforts and success, a permanent soup kitchen was created with the $10,000 National Award they received from Newman’s Own Inc.
High school students in Las Vegas helped 30 homeless adults prepare resumes (简历) during a job fair they held at the area’s largest homeless shelter. At least nine of the adults later found jobs.
24. From the text we know _________.
A. Alisia’s brother has been ill at University Children’s hospital
B. a permanent soup kitchen for homeless people was created in Texas
C. the students’ good deeds were supported by many people
D. students in Las Vegas helped build a shelter for homeless adults
25. The underline part “the project” in Paragraph 3 refers to the work of _______.
A. opening a convenience store B. building a playground
C. providing free apartment D. making a camp
26. Which of the following best describes the main idea of the passage?
A. Teens are the future and hope of a country.
B. Teenagers are doing better than adults to change the world.
C. Social practice helps students make much money.
D. Small things can make a big difference.
C
Human beings have used tools for a very long time. In some parts of the world you can still find tools that people used more than two million years ago. They made these tools by hitting one stone against another. In this way, they broke off pieces from one of the stones. These chips of stone were usually sharp on one side. People used them for cutting meat and skin from dead animals, and also for making other tools out of wood. Human beings needed to use tools because they did not have sharp teeth like other meat eating animals, such as lions and tigers. Tools helped people to get food more easily.
Working with tools also helped to develop human intelligence. The human brain grew bigger, and human beings began to invent more and more tools and machines. The stone chip was one of the first tools that people used, and perhaps it is the most important. Some scientists say that it was the key to success of mankind.
Since 1960, a new kind of tool has appeared. This is the silicon (硅) chip — a little chip of silicon crystal. It is smaller than a finger nail, but it can store more than a million “bits” of information. It is an electronic brain. Every year these chips get cleverer, but their size gets smaller, and their cost gets less. They are used in watches, calculators and intelligent machines that we can use in many ways. In the future we will not need to work with tools in the old way. Machines will do
everything for us. They will even talk and play games with us. People will have plenty of spare time. But what will they do with it?
Human beings used stone chips for more than two million years, but human life changed very little in that time. We have used silicon chips for only a few years, but life is changing faster every day. What will life be like twenty years from now? What will the world be like two million years from now?
27. From paragraph 1, we can know_____________.
A. what early human beings used the tools for
B. why early human beings cut skin from dead animals
C. how early human beings discovered the tools
D. what food early human beings stored
28. The stone chip is thought to be the most important tool because it ______.
A. led to the invention of machines in the early time
B. developed cooking abilities of mankind
C. was one of the first tools of mankind
D. was very important to the development of mankind
29. The silicon chip is mentioned in the passage to________.
A. compare the effects of two kinds of tools
B. show the changes of tools
C. introduce a new kind of tool
D. give an example of using tools
30. At the end of the passage the author seems to suggest that life in future is ______.
A. out of order B. hard to predict C. less colorful D. full of meanings
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。
If tests can make students nervous, anxious and even scared, shouldn’t schools just get rid of them? 31 Teachers and schools give students tests for very important reasons:
32 Giving a test is a way for a teacher to see which students are learning the skills and knowledge they should be learning, and which ones are having trouble. Depending on how kids do on the test, the teacher will know if he or she must go back over some things, or if it’s okay to keep moving forward.
To see how well your school is teaching you. All parents want their kids to finally graduate with the ability to earn a living. 33 And one way to do this is to have them take test.
To assign (指定) grades. 34 Besides your homework, tests are one of the best ways for you to show the teacher that you’ve really learned what’s being taught, and for the teacher to figure out what grade you should get. Grades are also a way to show your parents how you’re doing in school.
To keep you motivated. Admit it: you work harder if you know someone is checking up on your work. For example, if your mum tells you to clean your room but you know she will never go in and check, then you might not do it, right? 35 Because you know that you’ll eventually have to take a test on the material and you might be more likely to give it extra effort and make sure you know everything you’re supposed to know.
A. To ensure that you are totally prepared.
B. To see if you’re learning.
C. Students must work hard to get good grades.
D. Well, believe it or not, tests don’t just exist to trouble you.
E. So schools have to prove they’re trying their best to educate students.
F. Grades are important in most schools, and tests play a big role.
G. Well, tests help make sure that you don’t leave your homework behind.
