Bats are the only mammals(哺乳动物) which can fly properly. Other flying mammals have wings of thin skin which cover their sides between their front and back legs. They can only fly from tree to tree, but they cannot change direction when they want to. All bats fly at night and most of them hunt for flying insects(昆虫), such as bees. The common bat finds its food by making a constant noise that the human ear cannot hear. The bat listens for echoes(回声) of the noise as it bounces(反射) off the insects showing the bat their position. The Fruit bat feeds on many different kinds of fruit. It does not use echoes but instead has very large, special eyes to see even in low light. The largest Fruit bat has a wing length of 0.75 meters. The Vampire bat drinks the blood of large mammals, and a few bats catch fish, birds and even other bats. 小题1: Some flying mammals are not real flyers because _____.A.they do not have wings | B.their wings are too thin | C.they have skin between their legs | D.they cannot turn around in the air | 小题2: When common bats hunt for food they _____.A.use echoes to kill the insects | B.make a noise to draw insects to them | C.produce a sound and listen to the echoes | D.listen noise made by the insects | 小题3: Unlike other bats, the Fruit bat _____.A.can see very well | B.eats fruit and fish | C.has very long wings | D.has excellent hearings | 小题4:The word "it" in the second paragraph refers to _____.A.the bat | B.the echo | C.the noise | D.the insect |

Finding the right school for your child is a process. You will want to read about the school, talk to any friends who are involved in the school and, most important of all, visit the school. The first step in finding out about Indian Creek is to request an information packet. We will be happy to send you a packet containing a brochure(小册子), the fee structure and an application. The packet should answer most of your general questions about the school. In order to get a true sense of Indian Creek School, you should come for an Admission Tour, which includes a personal meeting focusing on your child, a tour of the building and the classrooms, and a discussion of the curriculum(课程). This visit is no less important if the child for whom you are seeking admission is a teenager than if he or she is a three-year-old one. Every school has a different “school climate.” If you visit two or three schools, you will notice that each “feels” different. You know your child best and you will quickly develop a sense of whether a school is the right match or not. ●The initial point of entry for Indian Creek Students is at the pre-kindergarten level for three year olds. ●Children must be three years old by August 31st. ●We also have major points of entry from grade six to grade nine. At each of these levels, we open new sections and accept students in addition to those moving up from our own lower grades. ●There are scattered(零散的) openings available throughout the program due to attrition(学生流失). Once an opening occurs, students spend a day at ICS, part of which includes admission testing. 小题1: You can NOT get to know about ICS by ________.A.getting an information packet | B.taking an admission tour | C.asking friends involved in ICS | D.taking an admission test | 小题2: During the Admission Tour, you can ________.A.having a meeting with the children | B.decide on the design of the classrooms | C.talk with the school about the courses | D.choose the weather suitable for study | 小题3: Which of the following is NOT accepted for ICS when there is no attrition?A.A boy who will be 3 years old by July. | B.A fifth grader originally studying in ICS. | C.An eighth grader from another school. | D.A fourth grader from another school. | 小题4: The text is intended for ________.A.teachers | B.parents | C.kindergarteners | D.school kids |

A new study has been carried to test the role of story telling in lowering blood pressure. Dr. Thomas Houston, a professor of the University of Massachusetts Medical School, led a group of scientists that researched how pre-recorded videos of hypertension (高血压) patients" talking about their medical histories helped another group of patients with high blood pressure to control their condition over several months. Houston was surprised by their studies that suggested that communication can be a powerful tool in medicine. They showed that those who had had similar experiences, when talking to someone with a similar background, could help change their behavior to become healthier. Hypertension is difficult to control, since it is dependent on diet, exercise and mental state. Medical treatments with drugs, and lifestyle therapies(疗法) have been relatively ineffective because people find it hard to follow those medical requirements. In the test, his team carefully chose their story-tellers from 230 members of a patients" community with whom they could most easily relate. Next, they divided their study population into two groups. One received three interactive DVDs containing the tellers" stories of their experiences in living with and treating their hypertension. The other were given educational discs on an unrelated health topic. The study volunteers reported that they had listened to the DVDs, and after three months, those who heard the stories of the hypertensive patients lowered their blood pressure. While the study did not address how the story-telling influenced the patients" behavior, Houston doubts that watching patients of similar backgrounds who had a similar medical experience helped to motivate them to seek medical help to their hypertension. They found that after six months the difference in blood pressure between those who watched the story-tellers and those who observed the unrelated videos remained, suggesting that the story-telling continued to have an effect. 小题1: We can learn from the text that the pre-recorded videos _________.A.tell medical histories of hypertension patients | B.introduce some medical treatments of hypertension | C.introduce a good lifestyle for hypertensive patients | D.tell scientific discoveries of the scientist group | 小题2:Houston was surprised to find that _______.A.hypertension is really difficult to control | B.communication has some medical effects | C.medical treatments have no effect at all | D.people don"t follow the medical requirements | 小题3: The underlined word "address" in the last paragraph most probably means _______.A.persuade | B.observe | C.attend | D.announce | 小题4: Which of the following could be the best title of the text?A.The stories of some hypertension patients. | B.Medical treatments of blood pressure. | C.Storytelling may help lower blood pressure. | D.Suggestions about how to lower blood pressure. |

完形填空(每小题1分,共20分) A high school history teacher once told us, “If you make one close friend in school, you will be most fortunate. A 21 friend is someone who stays with you for life”. 22 teaches that he was right. Good friendship is just not easily 23 . It is possible that we simply do not stay in one place 24 enough for true friendship to develop. However, there can be 25 disagreement on the need for each of us to think carefully about the kind of friendship we want. To most of us, friendships are considered very important, 26 we need to have it clear in our minds the kinds of friendship we want. Are they to be close or 27 at arm’s length? Do we want to 28 ourselves or do we want to walk on the surface? For some people, many friendships on the surface are 29 enough. And that’s all right. But at some 30 we need to make sure that our expectations are the same as our friends’ expectations. The sharing of personal experience including our tears as well as our dark 31 is the surest way to deepen friendships. But it must 32 slowly and carried on only if there are 33 of interest and action in return. What are some of the 34 of our friendship? The greatest is to 35 too much too soon. Deep relationships 36 time. Another “major difficulty” is the selfishness to think one “possesses” the other, including his time and attention. 37 , friendships require actions in return. In other words, you must 38 as much as you take. Finally there is a question of taking care of. Unless you spend 39 time together, talking on the phone, writing letters, doing things together, friendships will die 40 .

From James Dean to Growing Pains, Hollywood has long had a love affair with the relationship between teens and their parents. As the fascination with this relationship attests, parents play a crucial role in the development of their children"s personalities. Teenagers learn by closely observing what people around them do. Parents are literally their first teachers and serve as role models. From hygiene to habits, from time management to personal manner, parents form the foundation of their children"s characteristics. These tiny individual factors on our everyday behavior collectively constitute who we are. A second influence occurs at the spiritual level. Parental treatment of children is reflected in children"s relationship with others. For example, my dad was quite angry with my study habits a few years back and lost his temper.I clearly remember that I too would easily lose my cool and shout at people, often saying things I later regretted, in those difficult days. Parents of my fellow classmates often tend to be anxious about the studies of their children, which can lead to a lack of confidence in their children. If we are boats weathering a storm as we navigate toward maturity, then parents should be our captains. It is as easy to lead us to shipwreck as is to take us ashore safely. To be fair, the guidance and influence of our parents are not the sole factors in molding us. There are numerous examples of teens forging their own paths and becoming something of which their parents never dreamed. Even so, parents must be a fundamental force that positively influences their children. At their best, they can help to solve teenage problems with a respect for their children"s thoughts. 小题1: James Dean and Growing Pains in the first paragraph are described as follows EXCEPT .A.they are about love affairs in family life | B.they are mentioned at the beginning of the passage to introduce the topic | C.they reflect a very important role parents play in childhood development | D.they are typical presentations of the relationship between teens and their parents | 小题2: If parents are worried about the studies of their children, their children will .A.easily lose their temper | B.lack self-confidence | C.follow their own paths | D.tend to shout at people | 小题3: We can conclude from the passage that .A.teens will always be what their parents expect them to | B.parents" behavior influences their children both physically and mentally | C.the guidance and influence of parents are the only factor in molding teens | D.parents should be our captains when we teens are on boats in a storm | 小题4: The passage is intended mainly for .A.teens | B.teachers | C.students | D.parents |
