My children went inside and brought some     3     for her. This kind of incident happens very often in my hometown,     4     during Christmas.    From where I was seated, I could see her clearly. She looked about ten years old and she wore a dress too big for her. She spoke in a     5     voice and looked at me straight in the eye. Something made me get up and     6    her.    In answer to my questions, she said that her mother made hoppers and she     7     them before going to school. But the hopper money was not adequate to     8    the list; therefore, she was going from house to house asking for help.    Her voice told me the story; her eyes told me that it was     9     . I said I'd buy her what was on the list.We drove to a nearby bookstore. She sat    10    , with a strange look on her face. When the clerk was taking all the things on the list, the little girl kept staring as if confused. Perhaps she had never    11    so many new things before. They were merely exercise books, pencils, pens and such things. She whispered her    12    to us. Strange, I hadn't been aware that giving such   13         things to one in need, could bring me such a lot of happiness.As we drove back, I could see the little girl in the mirror. All the gifts I had given in my life never 14    up a face so much. She was grasping the parcel, smiling to herself. The total event made us all very    15    .

It took place during the first week of the term. Every kid was given a job for which they would be responsible for the rest of that school year.Some jobs were more interesting than others, and the children were eager to be given one of the best ones. When giving them out, the teacher took into account which pupils had been most responsible during the previous year. During the previous year Rita had carried out the teachers instructions perfectly. All the children knew Rita would be given the best job.But there was a big surprise. Each child received a normal job. But Ritas job was very different. She was given a little box containing some sand and one ant. Though the teacher insisted that this ant was very special, Rita felt disappointed. Most of her classmates felt sorry for her. Even her father became very angry with the teacher and he encouraged Rita to pay no attention to this insignificant pet. However, Rita preferred to show the teacher her error by doing something special with that job of little interest.Rita started investigating all about her little ant and gave the ant the best food, and it grew quite a bit bigger.One day, a man, who looked very important, came into their classroom and declared, “Your class has been chosen to acpany me, this summer, on a journey to the tropical rain forest, where we will investigate all kinds of insects. Among all the schools of this region, your class has best cared for the little ant.”That day the school was filled with joy and celebration. Everyone thanked Rita for having been so patient and responsible. And many children learnt that to be given the most important task you have to know how to be responsible even in what are the smallest tasks.26. What did the teacher base his decision on when giving out jobs to the children? A. Their characters and interests.  B. Their class performance during the previous year.  C. Their working performance during the previous year. D. Their ability of managing their accounts during the previous year27. What does the underlined sentence mean? A. Each child got an important job. B. Each child got an interesting job.   C. The perfect student got the job of everyones preference D. The most responsible student got the job of least interest.  28.What is Ritas attitude to her fathers suggestion?    A. Negative.     B. Uncertain.    C. Totally positive.   D. Acceptive.29. We can infer that the man who made the declaration is a _. A. hunter       B. director     C. biologist       D. principal 30. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Never plain about life. B. Small tasks can lead to fortunes. C. Men are best known by their friends. D. Responsibility and intelligence bring good luck. BYou may not pay much attention to your daily elevator ride. Many of us use a lift several times during the day without really thinking about it. But Lee Gray, PhD, of the University of North Carolina, US, has made it his business to examine this overlooked form of public transport. He is known as the “Elevator Guy”.“The lift bees this interesting social space where etiquette (礼仪) is sort of odd,” Gray told the BBC. “They (elevators) are socially very interesting but often very awkward places.”We walk in and usually turn around to face the door. If someone else es in, we may have to move. And here, according to Gray, lift-users unthinkingly go through a set pattern of movements. He told the BBC what he had observed.He explained that when you are the only one inside a lift, you can do whatever you want its your own little box.If there are two of you, you go into different corners, standing diagonally (对角线地) across from each other to create distance.When a third person enters, you will unconsciously form a triangle. And when there is a fourth person it bees a square, with someone in every corner. A fifth person is probably going to have to stand in the middle.New entrants to the lift will need to size up the situation when the doors slide open and then act decisively. Once in, for most people the rule is simple look down, or look at your phone.Why are we so awkward in lifts?“You dont have enough space,” Professor Babette Renneberg, a clinical psychologist at the Free University of Berlin, told the BBC. “Usually when we meet other people we have about an arms length of distance between us. And thats not possible in most elevators.”In such a small, enclosed space it bees very important to act in a way that cannot be construed (理解) as threatening or odd. “The easiest way to do this is to avoid eye contact,” she said.31.The main purpose of the article is to _.A. remind us to enjoy ourselves in the elevatorB. tell us some unwritten rules of elevator etiquetteC. share an interesting but awkward elevator rideD. analyze what makes people feel awkward in an elevator32. According to Gray, when people enter an elevator, they usually _.A. turn around and greet one anotherB. look around or examine their phoneC. make eye contact with those in the elevatorD. try to keep a distance from other people33. Which of the following describes how people usually stand when there are at least two people in an elevator?A. Door B. Door C. Door D. DoorThe point in the chart refers to one person.34. The underlined phrase “size up” in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to _.A. judge B. ignore C. put up with D. make the best of35. According to the article, people feel awkward in lifts because of_.A. someones odd behaviors B. the lack of spaceC. their unfamiliarity with one another D. their eye contact with one another CFollowing some of the tips for green living helps save our planet. All of these involve just a few changes to our daily habits. Just walk and limit the use of your car. One of the poster images of pollution is our vehicles. It burns fuel. It is not as efficient as we hope it could be, and we use it every single day. To lessen the effects of the air pollution caused by our vehicles, we should limit their use. If we can walk to our destination then just let us go. Not only do we lessen our carbon dioxide emissions, but we also get a good exercise out of it. Use a laptop instead of a puter desktop. Laptops are more energy efficient pared to their bigger counterparts. A laptop is generally 50 percent more efficient in using electricity. Aside from that there are other benefits of a laptop. It is portable so you can work anywhere you like and that you get powerful features without the large size of desktop units. Turn off the faucet while you are brushing your teeth. It is always a better idea to use a glass when we are brushing our teeth and not to just let the faucet keep on running. Therefore，there is less water to waste while we are cleaning our pearly whites. Simply turn off the faucet when you are not using it. Make good use of natural light. We have a great and natural lamp - the sun, and we should learn how to take full advantage of it during daytime. So instead of turning on our lights or lamps even if it is still not evening, we should pull up the drapes and let the natural light e in from the windows.  These are just some of the best tips for green living, but of course there are still many of these tips if you just search for them. But you can do your own variation any time just always prioritize how you can use less energy and produce even lesser trash and pollution. 36. Whats the best title for the passage? A.

While Sally is in the bathroom, Anne decides to buy another drink, but she notices that Sally has left her phone on the table. Anne puts the phone into her friends bag before heading to the bar so that no one steals it. When Sally returns, where will she expect to see her phone?If you said shed look at the table where she left it, congratulations! You have a “theory of mind” the ability to understand that another person may have knowledge, ideas and beliefs that differ from your own, or from reality.This ability may not seem special but it involves doing something no other animal can: ignoring our own beliefs about the world that the phone is in the bag and take on an alternative world view.The “theory of mind” was first developed in the 1970s, when it was discovered that at around the age of four, children develop this ability. The standard way to test a childs “theory of mind” is called the Sally-Anne test. It involves acting out the events described earlier, only with puppets and a missing ball.When asked, “When Sally returns, where will she look for the ball?” most three-year-olds say shell look in the new spot, where Anne has placed it. The child knows the balls location, so they cannot imagine that Sally would think it was anywhere else.But around the age of four, that changes. Most four and five-year-olds realize that Sally will expect the ball to be just where she left it.For over two decades that was the dogma, but the idea has been challenged by new research that indicated “theory of mind” is present in babies just 15 months old.Such young children cannot answer questions about where they expect Sally to look for the ball, but you can tell what theyre thinking by how long they stare: babies look for longer at things they find surprising.When Sally searched for the ball in a place she should not have expected to find it, the babies did stare for longer. In other words, they seemed to understand that people can have false beliefs. 36. The author told the story about Sally and Anne in the bar in order to _.A. test how clever the readers areB. explain how adults solve problemsC. introduce the concept of “theory of mind”D. show the difference between facts and beliefs37. Which of the following is true about the classic Sally-Anne test?A. It concluded that children developed the theory of mind around four.B. It showed children were confused by the Sally and Anne test.C. It found that three-year-old children didnt know how to lie.D. It proved that 4-year-olds were smarter than 3-year-olds.38. According to the passage, “the theory of mind” has been _.A. universally acceptedB. criticized by the scientistsC. clearly proven to be wrongD. challenged by some researchers39. When babies who cant talk are given the Sally-Anne test, why did they stare?A. They were surprised about where Sally was looking for the ball.B. They were happy to know that Sally was unable to find the ball.C. They were confused by the fact that Sally couldnt find the ball.D. They were interested in where Sally was looking for the ball.40. The passage includes the following contents EXCEPT _.A. new findings opposing the classic Sally-Anne testB. how different adults and children areC. how the Sally-Anne test is doneD. what the theory of mind is信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）下面是个留学国家的资讯及其学位申请者的信息，请阅读下列资讯和申请者的信息，并按照要求匹配信息。请将答题卡上对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。首先，请阅读以下留学国家的信息：AThe US has always been on the top destination list for Chinese students, with its high education standards and enough scholarship.Good news: It's easier to get a US student visa (签证) nowadays.
