注意:每个空格只填1个单词。      When young children are learning to ride a bicycle, they require that their parents hold on to the back
of the bike so that they gain confidence and won"t fall off.
     However, when children leave to go to college, or get married, parents must accept that their children
are riding off into their own future. At this time, parents shouldn"t stand back and with the children gone,
they are left with an empty nest. How can parents get through this period of life?
     The first thing you should do is nothing at all. You should actually take some time to rest since your
 child was born. Just relax and reward yourself for the work you put into your child.
     Taking some time for yourself will allow you to adjust to the change and figure out how you really feel
about your child"s departure (离开). You shouldn"t compare how you feel with how other people feel, as
everyone"s experience of an empty nest is different.
     Exercise is a great mood lifter. A physical fitness program may have been one of the first sacrifices (牺
牲) you made when your child came along; now, with fewer duties, you"ll have time to hit the gym regularly.
If you have a friend who also has become an empty nester recently, you may have found a new companion.
Not only will you get the chance to share dealing with tips, you"ll also create social opportunities for yourself,
which will get you out of that empty house if you need to. We all have those things that we say we"ll do or
learn"someday".
      If you"re an empty nester, the "someday" might just be now. If you"re not sure exactly what to do in all
your spare time, take your time and think about it. It will, however, probably be easier to figure out your
dream when you"re out. Try exploring a nearby museum or attraction you"ve never visited.
     Many parents may fear an empty nest because they worry that their little birds have flown away forever.
Try setting up a regular phone date with your child. A once-a-week call may make you feel satisfied while
giving your child a reasonable degree of freedom.
答案
1. lonely 2. ways /How 3. Relax 4. feeling 5. exercise
6. regular 7. friendship 8. chance 9. calling 10. freedom

阅读理解。     Every kid wishes to be an adult. But now as grown-ups, some adults find they cannot leave childhood
behind. They become "kidults" (kid+adult). Being a kidult has become a lifestyle-choice among young people
across Asia. Some kidults collect toys they once played with. Hello Kitty, Garfield, and Snoopy have many
adult fans around the world. It is not unusual to see a 20-something woman with a big, Garfield-shaped
cushion on her sofa or a Hello Kitty mobile phone accessory.
     Other kidults still enjoy children"s stories and fairy tales. For example, Bloomsbury even published the
Harry Potter novels with an adult cover. That way, no one else on the subway will know that an adult is
actually reading a children"s book!
     "Kidults can be like vitamins to society. Adults who value their childhood and hold on to pure, child-like
emotion may be needed in such a rough and dry society," said Lee Sojung, professor of Foreign Studies at
Hankuk University (韩国外国语大学). He added that kidult culture may fill the generation gap between adults
and kids. It could give children and their parents books, movies, and cartoon shows to enjoy together. He
may be right.
     Tim Greenhalgh, a professor, explained that some kidults just refuse to grow up. They value childhood
because life in a busy and stressful city frightens them. Kidults would like to forget their age and openly
show their fear of society and adulthood. 1. We can infer from the article that _____.A. Kidults miss their childhood so much that they can"t give up their toys
C. Kidults like to have vitamins very much
B. Bloomsbury knows some kidults don"t want people to know that they are kidults
D. Some toys are so interesting that even adults like them very much 2. According to the author, being a kidult is good in some way except that _____. A. it can improve the relationship between parents and their kids
B. it can help kidults feel relaxed
C. it is helpful to solve some social problems
D. it can make people loyal to one"s parents 3. According to the writer, _____.A. being a kidult is nothing wrong
B. kidults have mental problems
C. our society is very dull
D. some people can never grow up

阅读理解。     Just getting accepted to an American college or university does not guarantee that you will get a visa.
And getting a visa just lets you arrive in the United States. It does not guarantee that an immigration officer
will permit you to enter the country.
     If you are requesting a visa for the first time, you will probably have to go to an American embassy or
consulate (领事馆). You will need to bring a government form sent to you by your American school that
shows you have been accepted.
     You will also need banking and tax records that show you have enough money to pay for your education.
And be prepared to provide evidence that you will return to your home country after your studies end.
     All of this is important in satisfying the requirements to get a visa. A consular official will also take your
picture and your fingerprints.
     Foreign students must contact their local embassy or consulate to request an interview and to get other
information. This includes directions about how and where to pay the visa application charge. The cost is
two hundred dollars.
     You should apply for the visa as soon as you have been accepted to a school in the United States. The
government needs time to perform a background investigation.
     You cannot receive a visa more than one hundred twenty days before the start of your program. And if
you are coming as a student for the first time, you cannot enter the country more than thirty days before
classes begin.
      Once you come to the United States, you can stay for the length of your period of study. Your school
is required to provide the Department of Homeland Security with reports on your status as a student.1. What do you have to take to the American embassy if you request a visa for the first time? A. A government form.
B. Banking and tax records.

阅读理解。     London, Reuters-What could annoy teenagers enough to make them stop hanging out with friends and
go home?
      No, it"s not a visit from their mothers, and not a threat to take away their cellphones or pocket money.
      It"s high-frequency noise. The UK police recently agreed to use a device (装置) called the Sonic Teenager
Deterrent. It sends out a sound that makes teenagers become so impatient and angry that they have to cover
their ears tightly and walk away.
     The sound is at extreme high-pitch that can be heard by those under 20. The body"s natural ability to detect
some wave bands (波段) decreases almost entirely after 20, so few adults can hear the sounds. The black-box
device, nicknamed the Mosquito because of its sound, can be fixed to the outside walls of shops, offices and
homes. It sounds to youngsters like a crazy insect or a badly played violin. But it causes no physical damage.
     A number of police forces and councils have given permission to use the system and want to install it at
trouble spots.
     Staffordshire Police Inspector Amanda Davies, who has given the device to shopkeepers in the Moorlands
area, said," It is controlled by the shopkeepers--if they can see through their window that there is a problem,
they turn the device on for a while until the group has run away." 1. The device can be used to _______. A. threaten teenagers in public
B. drive away trouble-makers under 20
C. help mothers control their teenage children
D. help the police control shopkeepers 2. From the passage we can know that _______. A. young people often suffer from pains in ears
B. shopkeepers are troubled by noisy insects
C. high-frequency noise is beyond the listening ability of people over 20
D. the police invented a new device to deal with teenagers3. The purpose of the writer to write the passage is _______.  A. to advertise a new hi-tech device
B. to tell the reader a piece of news
C. to sell the device to shopkeepers
D. to inform the public as the spokesman of the police4. Who will welcome the device most?A. Shopkeepers.
B. The police.
C. Young people.
D. The producer.

任务型填词。
     请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
注意:每个空格只填1个单词。     The most important factor (因素) that leads to success is what you do every single day. Your habits will
decide whether you are successful or not. If you have strong and healthy positive habits, it does not matter
whether or not you fail today because you will succeed in the long term. Having positive habits does not mean
that you will succeed every single time. However, in the long term, there is no doubt that you will achieve all
your goals and be successful. On the other hand, if you have strong negative habits, you will fail in the long
term. It does not matter whether you succeed today or not. Why are habits so important?
     A single positive action will not change your life, but the same action repeated 1,000 times will have a great
effect on your life. For example, if you go to the gym one time, you won"t see a big difference in your life.
However, if your go to the gym 1,000 time over a five-year period, you will see a big difference in your body.
The same principle (原则) is true of finance (金融), health, relationships, work, career, and school. Simple
positive actions repeated every single day will have a great effect on your life in the long run. How to develop
positive habits?
     There"s nothing easier than developing positive habits. You simply have to do every single day the action
you want to make a habit. If you want to develop the habit of running, run almost every day. If you want to
develop the habit of reading, read every day. Habits are created by repetition (重复). The more you do an
action. the easier it becomes in the long run. How to get rid of negative habits?
      The only way to destroy negative habits is to stop reinforcing (加强) them. If you are a smoker, stop
smoking. If you are a drug user, stop using drugs. Yes, it will be very difficult at the beginning. The first
week will be very hard. After three weeks, you will feel a lot better. It"s hard to get rid of negative habits
because you got a lot of pleasure from these habits in the past. You can do it!
     Everybody can change. All it takes is courage and determination. Decide right now to improve your life
by changing your habits. Take action right now! Don"t be afraid. Yes, you will probably make mistakes along
the way. But never forget that success is waiting for you if you have positive habits in your life. If you refuse
to give up, success will be yours.
