My son Cameron who was 16 years old came up with this crazy idea to make his own survival show. Well I thought it was just another one of his “phases” but he began to sound more and more serious about it. He's a big outdoors man and has always loved the idea of surviving in the woods by himself, but he has never done anything like this. Anyway, he somehow raised $4,000 for his idea. With the money he bought a nice camcorder(摄像机) ;that's when I realized that he was really serious about this whole thing.
Cameron organized the trip all by himself. I just put out a few rules that he had to follow and rented a satellite phone so that he could contact us on his journey. My son traveled nearly 50 miles, while surviving for four days and three nights alone in the wilderness. He had no food or water, only his knife, and a camera. The journey was difficult as he traveled through valleys, up and down big waterfalls, all while he was filming his entire journey. The wilderness we dropped him off in was a wild forest that is made up of untouched land; he found his way to the beautiful lake where we picked him up. In the end he made the most amazing movie that I have ever seen in all my life.
My son's courage should be recognized. That is why I am trying my hardest to get him seen by the rest of the world. Cameron recently turned 17. He already has plans for his next adventure and I have no hope in stopping him from completing it. This next summer he plans on surviving for two or three weeks on a desert island in Fiji or Tonga. No teenage kid has ever done anything close to what my son Cameron has done.
(1)As for his son's idea of survival show, the author _____.

(2)Where were Cameron's parents waiting for his son?
A.At the beautiful lake.
B.At the large waterfall.
C.On the untouched land.

(3)What will impress the world in the author's opinion?
A.The great bravery of Cameron.

D.The scenery Cameron has described.

LONDON-A British judge on Thursday sentenced a businessman who sold fake(假冒的) bomb detectors(探测器) to 10 years in prison, saying the man hadn't cared about potentially deadly consequences.
It is believed that James McCormick got about $77.8 million from the sales of his detectors-which were based on a kind of golf ball finder--to countries including Iraq, Belgium and Saudi Arabia.
McCormick, 57, was convicted(判罪) of cheats last month and sentenced Thursday at the Old Bailey court in London.
“Your cheating conduct in selling a great amount of useless equipment simply for huge profit promoted a false sense of security and in all probability materially contributed to causing death and injury to innocent people,” Judge Richard Hone told McCormick. “you have neither regret, nor shame, nor any sense of guilt.”
The detectors, sold for up to $42,000 each, were said to be able to find such dangerous objects as bombs under water and from the air. But in fact they “lacked any grounding in science” and were of no use.
McCormick had told the court that he sold his detectors to the police in Kenya, the prison service in Hong Kong, the army in Egypt and the border control in Thailand.
“I never had any bad results from customers,” he said
(1)Why was McCormick sentenced to prison?
A.He sold bombs
B.He caused death of people.
C.He made detectors.
D.He cheated in business.
(2)According to the judge, what McCormick had done _____.
A.increased the cost of safeguarding
B.lowered people's guard against danger
C.changed people's idea of social security
D.caused innocent people to commit crimes(犯罪)
(3)Which of the following is true of the detectors?
A.They have not been sold to Africa.
B.They have caused many serious problems.
C.They can find dangerous objects in water.
D.They don't function on the basis of science.
(4)It can be inferred from the passage that McCormick_____.
A.sold the equipment at a low price.
B.was well-known in most countries
C.did not think he had committed the crime
D.had not got such huge profit as mentioned in the text

Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I'm not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances don't come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that's just the reality of how life is.
However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in addition to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing. To become great at certain things, it'll require even more time, time that most people won't put in.
This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don't enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.
When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost. It's sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and there's a huge chance that you're wrong anyway.
Whatever you do, if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction(沉迷), and over a long period of time. If you're not willing to put in the time and work, don't expect to receive any rewards. Consistent, hard work won't guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.
(1)Paragraph 1 mainly talks about _____.
A.the reasons for success
B.the meaning of success
C.the standards of success
D.the importance of success
(2)In Paragraph 2, the underlined word that refers to _____.
A.being good at something
B.setting a practical goal
C.putting in more time
D.succeeding in life
(3)Successful people suggest doing what one loves because_____.
A.work makes one feel pain
B.one tends to enjoy his work
C.one gives up his work easily
D.it takes a lot of time to succeed
(4)What is the main theme of the passage?
A.Having a goal is vital to success.
B.Being good is different from being great.
C.One cannot succeed without time and practice.
D.Luck, talent and family help to achieve success.

任务型阅读How to Build Team Spirit
An important part of being on a team is team spirit, the sense of oneness and support gained from working together. How can you build team spirit in this everyone-for-himself world and expand the concept to include school loyalty and pride?
   When students and fans see enjoyment and a good attitude, they will be eager to show their team spirit, too.
Encourage common cooperation among team members even in individual sports such as tennis or gymnastics. Break the team into pairs or small groups. It will help each other during practice. Assign each new player an experienced member of the team to be his mentor(辅导教师).
   Disagreement is unavoidable, but complaints affect team performance.
   Don't just suggest, set goals such as mentioning the team to three people a day, covering all books in school colors and logos or inviting five friends to the next game.
Support a very noticeable non-sports activity such as a blood drive, Toys for Tots, fundraising for new science equipment of whatever the team decides. Wear school colors, logo and name tags when promoting the project.
   On the day, make an effort to find a job or activity for everyone as you encourage students and staff to dress in school colors, make signs (“Jefferson School rocks!”), display notebook stickers and so on. If school rules permit, consider a face-painting booth.
Put on an assembly(集会) with banners, music, cheerleading, introductions and applause for team members.   You'll also want to display the statistics of various teams' achievements, whether it be a district prize, a personal best or simply winning their last game.
A.Get disagreements out in the open quickly and mediate (调解)if necessary.
B.Plan a monthly “school spirit” day.
C.There are ways to build team spirits .
D.Begin with energetic promotion.
E.Divide students into small groups.
F.Prove ways to build up the team around school.

Life is a mystery and we will never know that is waiting for us. But one thing is for sure: problems are unavoidable. For us, it's the process of solving problems that help us grow.
Making a speech in public used to make me frightening. With a strong accent and terrible pronunciation, I failed in speech competition many times, but I didn't lose my heart. I was admitted by the school speech club. I considered it a good chance for me to improve myself. With a help of others, I recorded my speech, listening to it and corrected my pronunciation. Now I am confident enough to give my best speech to you all.
Don't afraid of problems, but make use of it to be the best of ourselves!

语法填空
You've just hiccupped (打嗝) for the tenth time since you finished dinner. Wonder   these funny noises are coming from? The part    (blame) is your diaphragm, the muscle at the bottom of your chest. All hiccups start here.
The diaphragm almost always    (work) perfectly--it pulls down when you breathe in to help pull air into the lungs    it moves up when you breathe out to help push air out of the lungs. But sometimes the diaphragm becomes upset, and when    happens, it pushes up in an irregular way, making your breath come out differently    how it normally does. When this irregular breath hits your voice box, you're left with a big hiccup. Things    bother the diaphragm include eating too quickly or too much, stomachaches or feeling nervous.
If you want to know    to get rid of hiccups, here are some “cures”.    (breathe) into a paper bag is one method some people use. Others think taking a mouthful of water is the way to become hiccup-free. Sugar under your tongue might also drive away the hiccups. And maybe the most famous    (treat), having someone scare you, also helps beat the hiccups.
