On a popular teacher’s website, there is a classroom activity to help make children aware of the implications of the different generations of the same family living far from each other. It’s a story about Mrs. Eiderdown, an elderly lady whose grandchildren have moved to Australia with their parents. She lives alone and rarely sees her fami
ly .First of all, the children speculate about Mrs. Eiderdown’s life. What does she have for breakfast ? what does she do all day ?how does she feel about her life ?
One day, Mrs. Eiderdown decides that she wants a pet to keep her company and puts an advertisement in a local shop window. Then she waits at home to see if anyone will answer her advertisement .
A tall thin man rings her doorbell. he is holding a cardboard box. Mrs. Eiderdown chats with the man for ten minutes before she realizes that she hasn’t looked in-side the box to see what the pet is. She can hear a his-sing sound. The children guess what is in the box(a snake). Mrs. Eiderdown thanks the man but says she doesn’t think the snake is a good idea .
The next time the doorbell rings, there’s a lady on the doorstep, also carrying a cardboard box.In the bottom of the box, Mrs. Eiderdown sees something black and hairy with eight legs. Again ,the children say what they think it is (a spider). Mrs. Eiderdown thanks the lady for her kindness but says that a spider is not the sort of pet she has in mind.
At last, the littl
e girl next door brings her a dog .Mrs. Eiderdown’s life improves a lot because of the dog. more importantly, of course, the little girl, whose own granny lives a long way away, starts to visit Mrs.Eiderdown more often. This interactive classroom idea has led to a greater awareness among children about the possible loneliness of older people who live quite near them .小题1:what’s the main idea of the passage?
| A．children get to know about the trouble of the elderly |
| B．neighbors help select pets for Mrs. Eiderdown |
| C．society helps the lonely people in the UK |
| D．school send pets to the lonely elderly |
| A．they talk about how she feels about being old |
| B．they try to experience her loneliness |
| C．they try to imagine how she lives |
| D．they write about her life story |

In the first development, a portrait of Shakespeare, which is believed to be the only picture painted of him during his lifetime, was unveiled in London．
The artwork has been dated back to 1610, meaning it was painted six years before the writer"s death．
The painting had been owned by a family descended from Shakespeare"s literary patron （文学赞助人） tor hundreds of years without them ever knowing who the man in the picture was．
Alec Cobbe, who inherited the portrait, realized that the painting was a likeness of Shakespeare after visiting an exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery where he saw a portrait that had, until 70 years ago, been accepted as a life portrait of Shakespeare．
Mr Cobhe immediately realized he was looking at a copy of the painting that had been in his family for centuries．
The painting will now go on display in Shakespeare"s hometown Stratford-upon-Avon．
In a separate story, archaeologists in London believe they have unearthed the remains of Shakespeare"s first theatre．
The site was excavated（发掘） by a team from the Museum of London last summer, and is believed to have been built in 1576．
Experts think that Shakespeare himself acted at the theatre, which may have been where the play Romeo and Juliet was premiered （首次公演）．
It is believed that 25 years after construction, the building was pulled down and moved timber by timber to the South Bank of the Thames, where a reconstruction of the theatre now stands．
小题1:．What is the story mainly about?
| A．The remains of the first theatre． | B．Shakespeare"s portrait． |
| C．Early life of Shakespeare． | D．Great works of Shakespeare． |
| A．made public | B．found out | C．on sale | D．sold out |
| A．knew his painting was a copy of the portrait of Shakespeare |
| B．thought his painting was a little like Shakespeare |
| C．realized his painting was very valuable |
| D．was unknown who the man in the painting was |
| A．The site was the first theater Shakespeare built． |
| B．Romeo and Juliet was first put on in 1576． |
| C．The theatre was pulled down to make place for a new one． |
| D．The theatre rebuilt stands on the South Bank of the Thames． |
Begin a conversation and ask a simple question．Watch carefully for eye movement during the response．If the person looks up, he or she is thinking or forming pictures．This is also a sign of a visual thinker．Looking up and to the left shows recalling a memory, while looking up and to the right could show imaginative construction or lying．
If the person looks down, this could be a sign of obedience or even blame．Looking down and to the left can show a person talking to themselves．Looking down and to the right can show that they are feeling strong emotion．
Looking sideways can indicate distraction or checking out a potential threat, hut a sideways glance can also show anger．In addition, eyes that look side to side often show shiftiness and lying．
A glance usually indicates a desire for something．Glancing at a door could show a desire to leave the room, while a glance, at a person could indic
ate a desire to talk to them．A glance is also used when it is forbidden to look at something．A person who is lying to you may hold eye contact longer than normal．In addition, this person might smile with his mouth but not with his eyes．Smiling with the eyes is difficult to do if the emotion is not genuine．
Rapid blinking（眨）of the eyes can occur when a person is thinking, and this can also be another sign of lying．Again, a person who is aware of this sign might overcompensate and stare．
小题1:．The writer supported his argument in the first paragraph by __ __．
| A．using a quotation | B．defining the body language |
| C．telling a story of William Shakespeare | D．making a comment on eyes |
| A．If he looks up and to the left． |
| B．If he looks up and to the right． |
| C．If he looks down and to the left． |
| D．If he looks down and to the right． |
| A．Looking side to side． | B．Blinking the eyes quickly． |
| C．Smiling with the eyes． | D．Maintaining a prolonged eyes contact． |
| A．introduce the different meanings of the body languages |
| B．teach us how to use eyes to express ourselves |

Created by the American cartoonist Charles Schulz in 1950, the clever dog is loved by generations of kids and adults. He speaks more than 20 languages and appears daily in 26,000 newspapers around the world.
When Snoopy first appeared, he was not different form other pet dogs. But two years later, he had begun to speak with simple words and sounds. By 1957 he could walk on two legs and was going to school with his master, Charlie Brown, who failed in just about everything. Later he learned to use the typewriter.
Snoopy has done lots of jobs. He has been a bow-tie wearing lawyer, a tennis player, an Olympic figure skater, a world famous grocery checkout clerk, a pilot and even the first astronaut on the moon.
However, Snoopy has always dreamed of being a famous writer. The
beginning of his story is always, “It was a dark and stormy night…” Unfortunately for him no one has ever wanted to publish the story.In love, Snoopy is as much of a failure as Charlie Brown is at baseball. He easily falls in love but always has his heart broken. He eats to forget, but it never works.
Snoopy is an insightful, feel-good and sometimes sad dog. If you think a little about words, you might find them full of life lessons. Among his most famous lines are “To live is to dance, to dance is to live.” And “Yesterday I was a dog. Today I’m a dog. Tomorrow I’ll probably still be a dog. Sigh! There’s so little hope for advancement”.
小题1: Snoopy has done all the following jobs except ____________.
| A．a lawyer | B．a player | C．a clerk | D．a writer |
| A．Snoopy is always a sad dog | B．Snoopy can not speak in the beginning |

| A．has many bird friends and relatives | B．is a well-known writer and clerk |
| C．has been unfortunate since it was born | D．is very popular in the whole world |
| A．success | B．progress | C．growth | D．popularity |

here.Israel teenagers’ interests are not very different from others’. “Low-cut jeans（低腰牛仔裤）and miniskirts are very in,”said Hinanit, an 18-year-old teenager.
“You cannot let the fighting control what you do and don’t do. Of course I am scared sometimes, but I still go out and have fun. Yon always have to be careful, and things are probably more dangerous now, but I still love Israel. It is my home, and I would not leave it for anything!” Cohen said.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the Gaza Strip, a Palestinian boy named Bilal lies in a hospital bed, with his friends round, praying for his life. He has been in a coma（昏迷）since Israeli soldiers shot him on his way to school last month. In this recent military action, Israeli soldiers have killed at least 83 Palestinians, including 24 children.
Palestinian children lead a dangerous life under the watchful eyes of Israeli soldiers. Israel presents them as terrorists（恐怖分子）and faceless stone throwers. Many Palestinian children have been driven away from homes into crowded and hungry refugee camps with their families. “Even if we are surrounded by Israeli soldiers and have no food, we will stand and defend our country,” said Fatima Al-Aidi，a 13-year-old teenager, who lost a friend in Israel’s recent attack. “I hope to carry a lot of weapons and take my revenge（报复）one day. I hope the day comes when the enemy leaves Palestine.”
小题1:The underlined sentence “Despite the attack, life quickly returned to normal” means “ ”.
A．Life has returned to normal as a result of the a ttack |
| B．Life remains normal even if there was an attack |
| C．Life has returned to normal, although there was an attack |
| D．If there is not the attack, life will return to normal |
| A．is living in horror | B．is peace-loving |
| C．wants to join the army | D．doesn’t let fighting change her life |
| A．lovely | B．smart | C．friendly | D．dangerous |
| A．He was in poor health. |
| B．he hated Israeli soldiers. |
| C．He was eager to invent some other weapons to attack Israel. |
D．He wishes more hel p to be given. |
u use your smartness. Professor Salovery, the psychologist who created the term, EQ, says that it is IQ that gets you hired but it is EQ that gets you p
romoted.Supported by his research, he suggested that when predicting future successes, a person’s brainpower, as measured by IQ tests, might actually matter less than a person’s character, or EQ. Professor Salovery may be correct. For example, have you ever wondered why some of the best and smartest students in your class end up failing exams? Perhaps it is because of their EQ. People often make the mistake of thinking that EQ is the opposite of IQ. It is not. Although it is hoped that people have both high EQs and IQs, there is little doubt that those with low EQs have a hard time surviving in life.
For a long time, researchers disc
ussed if a person’s IQ could be raised. The geneticists said no, while the social scientists said yes. Furthermore, the social scientists said that it was possible to improve a person’s EQ, particularly in terms of “people skills”, such as understanding and communication.Recently, a professor released the findings of a study on senior high school students. When some normal students were introduced to some disabled students, they found that afterwards they were more willing to help people in diff
iculties. At the same time, there was a marked change in the disabled students’ attitudes. They became more positive about their disabilities and were more eager to try new things. People with high EQs often have positive attitudes towards life and are open to different ideas, so they tend to be more creative in their thinking. Please remember that having a high IQ is helpful but having a high EQ might even be more helpful.小题1: The second paragraph tells us that .
| A．people who have a high IQ always have a high EQ |
| B．EQ is the opposite of IQ |
| C．people who have a low EQ tend to have a hard life |
| D．people who have a high EQ always have a high IQ |

| D．The disabled students were more willing to help others. |
| A．IQ is more helpful to people than EQ. |
| B．IQ can be raised by understanding and communication. |
| C．EQ can get people hired. |
| D．A high EQ is of great benefit in getting people promoted. |
itle of this passage?| A．A person’s brainpower. | B．IQ, EQ and success. |
