On a dark winter day in Russia in 1896, Sergei Prokofiev sat by a piano next to his mother. She was helping him compose (作曲) his first piece of music. Sergei was only five years old.
He had overheard his parents discussing a terrible famine (饥荒) in India. The picture Sergei had of those hungry people in his mind caused him to write a story, in the form of musical notes. Sergei could not read music, so he picked out a tune on the piano keys, and his mother recorded the notes. Sergei titled it “Indian Gallop.”
Sergei's mother began giving him piano lessons for 20 minutes a day, and his ability grew quickly. She had a great love for music, too, and Sergei often lay awake in bed at night and listened to her play the piano.
Sergei's parents found a famous music teacher for him. The teacher shouted at Sergei when he didn't practice reading and playing music. Sergei later wrote, “I wanted to compose great musical plays, and instead I was given all sorts of boring tasks.” Yet he persisted with his studies and grew up to be a great composer.
In 1936 a children's theater asked Sergei to write music that would teach children about different instruments. He was happy and wrote the piece in a week, calling it Peter and the Wolf.
Sergei's Peter and the Wolf was enjoyed by children as well as adults. The first time Sergei played the piece on the piano, the children listening to it loved it so much that they made him play the ending three extra times. He was excited.
Today Sergei Prokofiev is remembered not only for his contributions (贡献) to classical music, but also for his sense of fun.
25. When he was five, Sergei _____.
A. could read music B. experienced a famine
C. created his first composition D. wrote a story about his parents
26. What does the underlined part “persisted with” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Hurried up. B. Continued with.
C. Put up with. D. Walked away from.
27. The piece of music Peter and the Wolf _____.
A. was a great success
B. was one of Sergei's early works
C. was written to teach children about the piano
D. was played three extra times when first played
28. What's the text mainly about?
A. The greatest 20th-century composer. B. Sergei's contributions to music.
C. Musical plays in Russia. D. Sergei's musical stories.
C
Inside Out is one of my favorite Disney / Pixar movies. The story is about a young girl named Riley who moves from Minnesota to San Francisco with her family and how she deals with her emotions (情感) through the move. These five emotions in Riley's brain are Joy, Fear, Anger, Disgust (厌恶) and Sadness. These emotions play a very important role in her life. I can understand because I am an 11-year-old girl and I am very in touch with my emotions and pre-teen feelings.
The film is extremely beautiful and you couldn't ask for better direction from Pete Doctor. The use of the right colors for the characters is great. For example, Joy is yellow, Sadness is blue, Disgust is green, Fear is purple and Anger of course is red. Sadness plays a main role in the story and it makes me wonder why we are told not to be sad. I think it's important to be sad when the time comes. The end of the movie pretty much got me and the whole audience (观众) (families, couples and even elderly people) in tears and I cried very hard.
I recommend (推荐) this movie for anyone from 8 to 18 because it has enough joy in it for younger kids to like it even though it does have some sad moments. I believe that adults will like it too. And I give it 4 out of 5 stars because it connects to an older audience even though it is designed for a younger audience. I think younger children can see this, but a parent would have to explain some things to them after the movie.
29. The author feels connected with the movie because she and the character Riley _____.
A. enjoy the same movie B. have the same feelings
C. have the same move experience D. have a similar family background
30. What does the author think of Pete Doctor's job?
A. Wonderful. B. Just so-so. C. Bad. D. Disappointing.
31. After seeing the movie, the author has a new understanding of _____.
A. fear B. sadness C. anger D. joy
32. In the author's eyes, the movie _____.
A. won't attract people over 18 B. is really unsuitable for children
C. will be popular among kids and adults D. can easily be understood by younger kids
D
Newborns begin to develop language skills long before they begin speaking. And, compared to adults, they develop these skills more quickly. People have a hard time learning new languages as they grow older, but babies have the ability to learn any language easily.
For a long time, scientists have tried to explain how such young children can learn the complicated (复杂的) grammatical rules and sounds of a language. Now, researchers are getting a better idea of what’s happening in the brains of the tiniest language learners. This new information might help kids with learning problems as well as adults who want to learn new languages. It might even help scientists who are trying to design computers that can communicate like people do.
Most babies go “ma ma” by 6 months of age, and most children speak in full sentences by age 3. For many years, scientists have wondered how the brains of young children figure out how to communicate using language. With help from new technologies, scientists are now finding that babies begin life with the ability to learn any language. They get into contact (接触) with other people, listen to what they say and watch their movements very closely. That is why they quickly master the languages they hear most often.
Studies show that, up to about 6 months of age, babies can recognize all the sounds that make up all the languages in the world. Starting at around 6 months old a baby’s brain focuses on the most
common sounds it hears. Then, children begin responding only to the sounds of the language they hear the most.
In a similar way older babies start recognizing the patterns that make up the rules of their native language. For example, English children who are about 18 months old start to figure out that words ending in “-ing” or “-ed” are usually verbs, and that verbs are action words.
33. Which of the following opinions does the author agree with?
A. Babies are really good language learners.
B. Adults should learn languages like babies.
C. It’s better to learn a new language at an early age.
D. Babies should be trained to improve language skills.
34. The researchers found out that babies learn a language mainly by _____.
A. repeating the words of other people
B. remembering the full sentences they hear
C. hearing and closely watching others speak
D. figuring out the meaning of different sounds
35. In the last two paragraphs, the author explains _____.
A. why babies pay more attention to sounds
B. how babies respond to what they hear most often
C. why verbs in a language attract the most attention of a baby
D. how babies master the grammatical rules of their native language
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
How to stay focused in class
● 36 No matter how much you want to sit with your friends during the class, try your best to avoid them. Talking with friends is not going to help you stay focused in class and will cause trouble, too.
● Look at the teacher. Your teacher is not just standing up there talking — they're trying to give you an acceptable education. Show the teacher that he or she has your full attention, by looking him or her in the eye. 37
● Take notes. By taking notes, you'll be able to “get into” the lesson. 38 Listen for key phrases such as, “This is important,” “This is the main idea,” etc. This can help you listen more intently (专心地); you'll have something to do and focus on.
● Get involved (参与) in class discussions. This is a wonderful way to become a more focused and successful student. When a teacher asks a question, offer to answer it. 39 This shows the teacher that you're listening intently during the class.
● Ask a question. 40 This really shows your teacher that you want to be better, and can recognize the things you're having difficulty with. Chances are, someone else in the class has the same question (and is too afraid to ask!). They'll be relaxed — and so will you.
A. Do your best.
B. Avoid sitting with friends.
C. Don't try to finish your old notes in class.
D. Write down key points as your teacher speaks.
E. If he or she asks for an opinion, share your own.
F. If you don't understand something, never be afraid to ask.
G. This person should have your full attention at all times in class.

Dear Bruce,
I’m Li Hua. I have some problems with my English study. I'd like to take the advantage of the weekends to improve my spoken English and I need your advice.
I'm good at English writing but weak in English speaking. What makes things worse is that my pronunciation is so bad that I can't pronounce many words correctly. So I seldom speak English in front of others, let alone to practice it with my classmates. I would appreciate it if you would give me some advice on how to improve it and it would be better if you can help me in person.
I'm looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
