A
When I was young, my family got our first computer. As years went by, I wanted to get a new one, and my father agreed. We went to many stores and looked at many flyers (小广告). At last we bought an HP computer.
During the first week, I noticed that our computer had some problems. I tried to fix it, but failed. Finally I had to phone the HP company. After five hours’ hard work, the computer still did not work. My dad didn’t have a choice but to return the whole thing.
A few days later, we decided that I should go on the internet and order some parts to build a new computer by myself.
It was not an easy thing for me to deal with it, but in the end I finished. From these setbacks (挫折), I have learned, and now believe if the computer that I bought from the store didn’t have problems, then I would not learn how to build a new one. Even though I spent lots of time on it, I know it wasn’t a waste of time. I now have a self-built computer, and I am very pleased.
25. The writer wanted to have a new computer because ____________. A. he has much money C. his dad would like to
B. the one he had was cheap D. the first one was too old
26. ____________, they telephoned the HP computer company. A. Before they bought the HP computer B. A week after they bought the computer
C. A week before they bought the computer D. A few days before they bought the computer
27. Which of the following is true according to this passage?
A. The HP computer was very cheap.
B. The writer built a new computer by himself at last.
C. The HP company managed to mend the computer at last.
D. Dad didn’t like the newly-built computer at all.

Sometimes, kids feel that they don’t like sports because they may not understand how to play them or they haven’t had much practice doing them. Sports can seem complicated because of all the rules and special equipment (设备). Even the fields and courts they are played on come in different shapes and sizes and have confusing – looking (令人困惑的) lines drawn on them.
People spend many years learning about their favourite sports and practicing how to do them well. So don’t feel bad if you don’t know the difference between a “corner kick” and a “goal kick” in soccer. If you want to learn more about a sport, you might ask your mum or dad about the programmes that introduce kids to new sports. These may be better than just joining a team that starts playing games right away without much explaining first.
Gym class and programmes at school can also be a way to try new sports with a mix of kids. Another way to learn about a sport is to watch instructional videos or DVDs or check out library books that explain the rules and offer advice for kids to learn to play them.
If you have an older friend or family member who’s good at a sport, you might ask him or her to help you practice. Some sports are just good to understand, even if you never want to play on a competitive team. For example, you might play softball or volleyball, just for fun, at a summer picnic. 28. Which would be the best title for this passage?
A. Sports Are Good for You C. Learning about Sports
B. What Sport Is Most Suitable for You
D. How and Where to Have Sports
29. The underlined word “complicated” in the first paragraph probably means “____________”.
A. interesting
B. harmful
C. easy
D. difficult
30. According to the writer, it is __________ for / of you not to be able to tell the difference between a “corner
kick” and a “goal kick” in soccer.
A. natural
B. impossible
C. funny
D. foolish
C
Can dogs and cats get along well in the same home? People who are thinking about getting a dog as a friend for their cat are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found that if the cat is taken back home before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swimmingly. In two-thirds of the homes cats and dogs have a good relationship. However, it wasn’t all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression (侵略，好斗) and fighting were found in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body languages are just different. For example, when a cat turns its head away it means aggression, while a dog doing the same means submission (顺从).
In homes with cats and dogs living in peace, researchers found a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each other’s language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk “Dog”, and dogs can learn how to talk “Cat”. What’s interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to become smarter. They can learn to read each other’s body languages, suggesting that the two may have more in common than was expected. Once familiar with each other’s body language, cats and dogs can play together, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa.
The importance of this research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets – to people who don’t get along well, including neighbors, workmates, and even countries. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance. 31. The underlined word swimmingly in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______________.
A. early
B. mostly
C. quickly
D. smoothly
32. Some cats and dogs may fight when ______________.
A. they are cold to each other B. they look away from each other
C. they misunderstand（误解）each other’s body languages D. they are introduced at an early age 33. What can we humans learn from cats and dogs?
A. We should learn to get along well with others. B. We should know more about animals. C. We should live in peace with animals. D. We should learn more body languages.
D
Often there is a lot of interactivity（相互作用） between students and teachers. In my mind, teachers are here and not only to teach us their knowledge but also to listen to what we want to say – indeed, students aren’t afraid to tell them what they think any more. However, this doesn’t mean that teachers don’t control their classes. It just shows the fact that times have changed, and so have methods. Teachers are now closer to their students and have
developed a kind of easy atmosphere (气氛) that allows students to be in class without feeling restricted (受约束的) to all kinds of rules. It makes the time the students spend in the classroom more pleasant. However, we can see that the “power” is still in the teachers’ hands – if something goes wrong it is up to him or her to react properly and even to punish if it is necessary. Let’s look at an example to explain my thoughts. Here is what we do with Mr Fynn in the English lab. Although he is “cool” with us, he can sometimes be very strict when we don’t do our homework or we speak French in class. Besides, he is a nice man and he is very friendly after class. Not all teachers are like him, but a few are. It is nice to work with them as they set a good mood in a group. This makes it easier to understand new knowledge and do our best on tests.
34. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. There is interactivity between students and teachers.
B. Teachers should not only teach students knowledge but also listen to what the students want to say. C. students aren’t afraid to tell teachers what they think any more. D. Teachers have lost control over their students. 35. What has changed between teachers and students?
A. Their age gap.
B. The way in which teachers control their students. D. The distance between their houses.
C. The role they play in class.
36. Who is the most powerful at school according to the passage?
A. The teachers. C. The students.
B. The oldest people. D. The parents.
37. The passage is mainly about __________________.
A. teachers’ responsibility
B. the relationship between teachers and students C. students’ thoughts D. teaching methods
