“A bird with a broken wing will never fly as high.” I’m sure T. J. Ware was made to feel this way almost every day in school. By high school, T. J. was the most widely known troublemaker in his town. Teachers literally cringed (畏缩) when they saw his name posted on their classroom lists. I met T. J. for the first time when all the students at school were attending ACE training. At first, he showed no interest in the discussion. But slowly, the interactive games drew him in. T. J. had some brilliant thoughts on those situations, which were welcomed by his group. By the end of the activity, the other students on the team were impressed with his concern and ideas and elected T. J. co-chairman of the team. When T. J. showed up at school on Monday morning, a group of teachers were expressing their disagreements to the school principal (校长) about his being elected co-chairman. The principal reminded them that the purpose of the program was to uncover any positive feeling and strengthen its practice until true change can take place. The teachers left the meeting, firmly convinced that failure was unavoidable. Two weeks later, T. J. and his friends led a group of 70 students to collect food. They collected a school record: 2,854 cans of food in just two hours. The local newspaper covered the event with a full-page article the next day. That newspaper story was posted on the main bulletin board (公告牌) at school, where everyone could see it. T. J.’s picture was up there for doing something great. T. J. started showing up at school every day and answered questions from teachers for the first time. The event he started now yields 9,000 cans of food in one day, taking care of 70 percent of the need for food for one year. T. J. reminds us that a bird with a broken wing only needs mending. But once it has healed, it can fly higher than the rest. T. J. got a job. He is flying quite nicely these days. 【1】What do we know about T. J. before he attended the training? A.He was talkative in class. B.He didn’t have a good fame. C.His ideas were quite impressive. D.He showed up at school every day. 【2】Why did the team members elect T.J. co-chairman? A.He promised them a bright future. B.They wanted to offer him a chance. C.They thought the job was quite easy. D.He was considered equal to the job. 【3】What do we know about the principal’s attitude towards T. J.’s being elected? A.Uncaring. B.Supportive. C.Cautious. D.Doubtful. 【4】What does the writer try to tell us with this story? A.No pain, no gain. B.Rome wasn’t built in a day. C.Don’t judge a book by its cover. D.Treat others as you want to be treated. |

Some birds are masters of crime (犯罪). That means these species steal food from other birds and get away with it. Scientists have long wondered what these birds have in common. A new study suggests that big body size does not predict bad behavior. Instead, it is the size of the birds’ brains that matters most. To learn more about what makes some birds tend toward a life of crime and how they steal food from other birds, scientists analyzed 856 published reports of thieves. Researcher Julie says she started the project after watching birds steal dry dog food out of unattended bowls. She read about some dramatic examples of thieves, including birds that steal food from others flying in midair or bending through the sky. She learned that members of some species disturb other birds until they spit up food in their mouth. Families that steal also tend to eat fish, mice, and other vertebrates (脊椎动物) instead of just insects. These meatier (多肉的) meals are hard to catch, and they deliver lots of valuable calories, so they are tempting to steal. Finally, birds that steal tend to have big brains in relation to their bodies. That may seem surprising, since human bullies (欺凌弱小者) are often thought to be stronger in size. But for birds, stealing isn’t about strength. It takes a clever brain to get food out of another hungry bird’s claws, especially if that bird is bigger than you are. 【1】The best title for the passage can be _______. A.Diet Habits of a Feather B.Hunting Skills of a Feather C.Brains of a Feather D.Thieves of a Feather 【2】What is the key factor of the birds’ stealing food? A.Body size. B.Living environment. C.Brain size. D.Mouth length. 【3】It can be inferred from the passage that _____. A.birds’ stealing isn’t related to their environment B.for birds, stealing is about cleverness and tricks C.birds steal food only from those that are smaller in size D.birds that steal have small brains for their bodies |

The Lion King was one of Disney’s most successful movies. The movie was so well-loved by audience everywhere, that Disney executive Michael Eisner, began thinking it would make a successful stage play as well. When he told co-worker Thomas Schumacher to start planning, Schumacher was stunned. He felt the project was impossible. But Eisner insisted. He said that all they needed was a “brilliant idea”. After many months, Schumacher found his brilliant idea. “The answer,” he recalls, “was, in fact, quite simple — Julie Taymor,” a woman who has been creating magical theatre for many years. Taymor accepted the challenge, putting all her years of theatrical experience into creating a new concept for the Lion King. When she began to address the question of how to bring the animal characters to life, she knew she did not want to hide the actors inside big animal suits. She wanted the audience to see the actors’ faces and bodies, which would represent the animal’s human qualities. So she designed costumes (服装) that revealed the actor within. Not every good idea works out, so even the most creative person must be willing to let go of an idea and look for a better one. For example, the mask for Mufasa, the lion king, went through many changes. At one point, Taymor’s co-designer, Michael Curry, created a large mask that the actor would lift on and off. But it looked awkward, so Curry went back to the drawing board and came up with a better idea. Creative ideas are not always complex. Sometimes, the simplest idea is the most powerful. Taymor calls these simple, but powerful ideas “true theatre”. For example, ribbons can show someone’s tears, and blue silk can show water. Many people helped make The Lion King a success. It was a team effort in every sense of the word, yet each person added his or her personal touch to make the production memorable. The creative work of the entire team pays off every night. People are thrilled by this imaginative journey to Africa. After the glorious opening, the amazing sights continue. The audience sees frightening hyenas, an elephant graveyard, an eye-popping stampede — everything, in fact, that was in the movie, but different enough to be a whole new event. By the end of the show, many in the audience find it hard to remember that The Lion King was ever a movie. 【1】Why did Michael Eisner think the movie The Lion King could become a successful stage play? A.He had a brilliant idea. B.All his co-workers are creative. C.The movie was great hit. D.It was one of Disney’s movies. 【2】How did Julie Taymor manage to bring the animal characters to life? A.She provided animal suits to create real stage effects. B.She encouraged audience to approach characters on stage. C.She designed costumes to hide the actors inside. D.She displayed human qualities of the animal characters. 【3】The stage play proved to be very successful due to the following factors EXPECT _______. A.the design of complex plot B.the cooperation of the entire team C.the choices of better ideas D.the power of simple ideas |

My family moved to Texas 33 years ago. Within the first month of moving to Texas, my mom signed us up for a library card.

阅读下面内容，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。 Among all the fast growing science and technology, the research of human genes, or biological engineering as people call it, is drawing more and more attention now. Sometimes it is a hot topic discussed by people. The greatest thing that gene technology can do is to cure serious diseases that doctors at present can almost do nothing with, such as cancer and heart disease. Every year, millions of people are murdered by these two killers. And to date, doctors have not found an effective way to cure them. But if the gene technology is applied, not only these two diseases can be cured completely, bringing happiness and more living days to the patients, but also the great amount of money people spend on curing their diseases can be saved, therefore it benefits the economy as well. In addition, human life span (寿命) can be prolonged. Gene technology can help people to give birth to more healthy and clever children. Some families have hereditary diseases. This means their children will for sure have the family disease, which is a great trouble for these families. In the past, doctors could do nothing about hereditary diseases. But gene technology can solve this problem perfectly. The scientist just need to find the wrong gene and correct it, and a healthy child will be born. Some people are worrying that the gene research can be used to manufacture human beings in large quantities. In the past few years, scientists have succeeded in cloning a sheep, therefore these people predict that human babies would soon be cloned. But I believe cloned babies will not come out in large quantities, for most couples in the world can have babies in very normal way and they also believe measures will be taken to control gene technology. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ |
