If our kids don’t fall, they don’t learn to get up. I still remember the day in high school that my mom forgot to pick me up from school. I’m the oldest of four children, and no doubt she’d had a long day with the other kids and she forgot it. After waiting at school for an hour, I walked the three miles home, and when I got to my house, I shut our front door with anger, stormed into the kitchen and screamed in my mom’s face that she’d forgotten me. Later that night, my dad told me I no longer had a ride to school the next day. I thought my mom would still take me, but when the morning came, she refused. It was midterm, and as a top student ready to start college applications, being late wasn’t proper. In my mind, missing these tests means the end of my academic career. I begged my mom. But she held her ground, and that day, I walked to school. And I missed my tests. My mom didn’t rescue(营救) me from failure. She let me suffer from it. She let me figure it out. She let me learn. Now, as a mom myself, I’ve realized that I want my kids to experience failure because failure is how we grow, learn and think outside of ourselves. It’s how we self-educate to learn what’s right and respectable, and what’s not. It’s how we become responsible and enthusiastic. Falling down makes us better, because we learn how to get up. 【1】Why did the author shout at her mother? A.Because she missed some important tests. B.Because her mother had ruined her future. C.Because she was tired after walking home. D.Because her mother didn’t pick her up home. 【2】What does the underlined phrase “held her ground” in Paragraph 2 mean? A.Gave in to me. B.Said yes to me. C.Stayed in the place. D.Insisted on her decision. 【3】What is the best title for the text? A.Stop Rescuing Your Kids from Failure B.Try to Meet Your Kids’ Requirements C.Offer Your Kids Help if Necessary D.Be Strict with Your Kids |

Millions of people suffer from motion sickness (晕动症).They have a lot of activities they fear. They often avoid doing these activities which include long-distance airplane travel, sea-trips, road-trips，even certain movies and video games. However, the French company Boarding Ring promises that it has its way to solve the problem, as long as the users are willing to wear Boarding Glasses! Why do many people suffer from motion sickness? It is believed that the brain fails to deal with mixed signals from body parts. For example, when you are looking at your phone on a moving bus, your inner ear realizes the move but your eyes, focused on the screen, think you don’t move. Boarding Glasses tries to ease (减轻)motion sickness by making the user’s eyes and ears transmit the same message. After the brain receives the same message, it will think you are in a moving environment. Though that sounds difficult, the science behind the glasses is surprisingly simple. The plastic frames (框架),made up of two round frames on the front and two on the side, are filled with some blue liquid. Any movement can cause the liquid to flow around the eyes. This allows the eyes to sense the move and send the correct signal to the brain. According to Antoine Jeannin, CEO of Boarding Ring, Boarding Glasses has been tested. The CEO said that over 95 percent of the users felt better after wearing the glasses. The best part is that Boarding Glasses only has a frame» so a single pair can be worn among a group of friends, or even an entire family! 【1】Why do some people suffer from motion sickness according to the passage? A.Their eyes can’t see the move. B.Their bodies are in a bad condition. C.Their ears can’t hear in a moving environment. D.Their brains can’t deal with mixed signals from body parts. 【2】What is the third paragraph mainly about? A.The shortcomings of Boarding Glasses. B.The design for Boarding Glasses’ future. C.The working principle of Boarding Glasses. D.The response of people wearing Boarding Glasses. 【3】What might be the best title for the passage? A.Boarding Glasses Promises to Ease Motion Sickness B.Why Do People Dislike Motion Sickness C.Why Do People Suffer from Motion Sickness D.Boarding Glasses Can Make You See the World Clearly |

Tiny as they are, bats have the ability to “see” in the dark by using a special skill called echolocation (回声定位法).They make noises and wait for sound waves, or an echo, to bounce back off objects. They can tell the distance of various objects by how quickly the sound waves bounce back off them. If no sound bounces back, they can then fly forward. This special ability has been copied in the human world for a long time, such as in submarines and planes. But apart from helping vehicles “see” where they are, what if blind people could use echolocation for themselves? American Daniel Kish, who is blind, is known as “Batman”. This isn’t because he walks around in a cape (披风)and a mask, but because he has a bat-like ability to locate where he is through sharp clicks he makes by moving his tongue against the roof of his mouth. Kish is so skilled at echolocating that he can ride a bike and hike on his own. Recently, a research carried out at the University of Durham in England shed some light on the power of human echolocation. Kish, as well as other volunteers, worked with a group of scientists who studied the way blind people listen to the echoes that they produce from clicks. The team found that people were capable of hearing even very faint echoes, ones far fainter than had been previously thought. Lore Thaler, lead scientist of the group, said, “We found that in some conditions, they were really faint—about 95 percent softer than the actual clicks, but the echolocators were still able to sense this.” Andrew Kolarik, another expert in echolocation, told BBC News that echolocation “can be very useful at providing information at face or chest height” and could help people “avoid objects like low hanging branches that might not get detected by the cane or a guide dog” According to BBC News, echolocation is a skill blind people can acquire and develop, just like learning a language. As Kolarik said, “Teaching echolocation skills could provide blind people with the means of exploring new places.” 【1】What does “this special ability” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A.The ability to make noises in the dark. B.The ability to bounce back off objects. C.The ability to measure the distance quickly. D.The ability to use sound waves to echolocate. 【2】What do we know about Daniel Kish from the text? A.He is fond of riding a bike and hiking alone. B.He is called “Batman” because he looks like a bat. C.He is able to hear echoes he produces from clicks. D.He conducted the experiment to circulate echolocation. 【3】What is Kolarik’s attitude towards the future use of echolocation in blind people? A.Hopeful. B.Ambiguous. C.Tolerant. D.Doubtful. 【4】What’s the best title for the text? A.Echolocation in Human World B.Finding New Way to “See” C.A Very Special Batman D.A Breakthrough in Echoing |

Things only people who have worked overseas can understand If you have ever worked or lived overseas, I’m pretty sure you can understand the following things!

Usually, your special day ends with the last phone call you get from home and then you can look through all your greetings on social media.【3】 You may throw a small party with some of your new friends, but it’s going to be nothing compared with the goodold feasts you used to have with your loved ones back at home. 【4】 Too often we simply can’t tell you if we will be coming home for holidays this season.

A phenomenon 【2】 (know) as “in-need-of-praise” has taken Chinese social media by storm and a new trend--seeking praise from strangers--has gone popular on social media among China’s young people.

These “in-need-of-praise” chat groups are a reflection of Chinese culture where 【4】 (open) seeking and giving praise is uncommon, 【5】 (lead) many people to hide their true emotions even from their families.

阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。 Retirement is the point where a person stops employment completely. The “standard” retirement age varies from country to country, but it is generally between 50 and 70, according to the latest statistics, 2011. However, for a long time, people have got into an argument about whether the age of retirement should be increased or reduced in their own countries. There are several arguments for allowing older people to continue working as long as they are able. Many people think that older employees have a large amount of knowledge and experience which can be lost to a business or organization if they are made to retire. Besides, older employees are often extremely faithful employees and are more willing to implement (执行) company policies than the young. A more important Point is regarding the attitudes in society to old people. To force someone to resign or retire at 60 or 65 indicates that the society does not value the input of these people and that practically their useful life is over. Allowing old people to work indefinitely (无限地), however, is not always a good policy. Some people took the strong view that age alone is no guarantee of ability. Many young employees have more experience or skills than older staff, who may have been stuck in one area for most of their working lives. Having compulsory (强制性的) retirement allows new ideas in an organization. On the other hand, older people should be rewarded by society for their life’s labor by being given generous pensions (退休金) and the freedom to enjoy leisure. They can have time to do whatever they like, that is, they can have their own plans or roles and achieve their retirement goals. With many young people unemployed or frustrated in low-level positions, there are often calls to compulsorily retire older workers. However, this can affect the older individual’s freedom—and right—to work. In my opinion, giving workers more choices over their retirement age will benefit both society and the individual. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ |
