注意:每个空格只填1 个单词。     It"s common for kids of all ages to experience school anxiety-schoolrelated stress. This is often most
apparent at the end of summer when school is about to start again, but it can occur yearround. Where does
the stress and anxiety come from?
     Teachers
    
A good experience with a caring teacher can cause a lasting impression on a child"s life-so can a bad
experience. While most teachers do their best to provide students with a positive educational experience,
some students are better suited for certain teaching styles and classroom types than others. If there"s a
mismatch (不协调) between student and teacher, a child can form lasting negative feelings about school or
his own abilities.
     Friends
    
Friends can also be a source of stress. Concerns about not having enough friends, not being in the same class as friends, not being able to keep up with friends in one particular area or another, and interpersonal
conflicts are a few of the very common ways kids can be stressed by their social lives at school. Dealing
with these issues alone can cause anxiety in even the most confident kids.
     Bullies (欺凌弱小者)
     Things have changed in the world of bullies since I was a kid.The good news is that teachers and parents are paying more attention. Many schools now have antibullying programs and policies. Though bullying does still happen, help is generally more easily accessible than before.
     The bad news is that bullying has gone hightech. Many students use the Internet, cell phones and other
media devices to bully other students, and this type of bullying often gets very aggressive. One reason is that bullies can be anonymous (匿名的) and enlist other bullies to make their targets miserable.Another reason is that they don’t have to face their targets. So it’s easier to get rid of any empathy that they may otherwise feel. There are ways to fight against “cyberbullying”, but many parents aren’t aware of them-and
many bullied kids feel too overwhelmed to deal with the situation.

     Just as some people think that certain numbers are lucky or unlucky, others believe that we can
use numbers to understand our personalities, or predict what will happen to us in the future.
     Numerology is a way of using numbers to describe a person’s character, and to make predictions
about future life events. Numerologists use the numbers 1-9, 11 and 22 - also known as the “master”
numbers - to help a person understand his or her personality, life goals, and destiny.
     Numerologists consider your Life Path number to be the most significant because this number
describes your character. To find this number, add together all the numbers in your date of birth. For
example, a person born on April 25, 1985 would add the month (4), to the numbers of the date (2+5),
plus the numbers of the birth year (1+9+8+5). In this case the total is 34, so this person’s life path
number is 7(3+4). Numerologists believe that people with this number are peaceful and affectionate
but can also be very reserved.
Your Expression number describes your talents and predicts how you should use these to fulfill your
destiny in life. Numerologists assign a number between 1 and 9 to each of the letters in your name.
These numbers are then added together in the same way as before to find your Expression number.
Numerologists can also do calculations to predict when the most challenging periods of your life will be.
     Numerologists also believe that the day a person is born is important. Each day of the month has a
character description. People born on the fourth are said to be responsible, honest, and stubborn.
People born on the fifteenth have very strong attachments to family and home. Those who celebrate
their birthday on the thirtieth are artistic, creative, and imaginative, and often make good writers.
     If we calculate the numerical value of our name and birth date, numerologists believe that we can
learn more about our personalities. They also believe that we can predict our destinies, how our lives
will progress, and what challenges we may face along the way. To the numerologist, numbers can be
used in many more ways than we think.
1 If a person was born on November 8, 1995, what is his Life Path number?
A. 7
B. 8
C. 9
D. 11
2 To understand your abilities and how to use them in your life, you should calculate your ______.
A. Life Path number
B. Expression number
C. birthday
D. name and birth date
3 According to the passage, a person born on the fifteenth tends to be _______.
A. stubborn
B. home-loving
C. artistic
D. imaginative
4 According to the passage, numerologists believe that _________.
A. Life Path number can be used to predict a person’s most challenging life periods
B. Expression number is the most meaningful for people to learn a person’s character
C. numbers can help people better understand themselves
D. numbers can be used to change a person’s future
5 The function of the passage is __________.
A. to raise doubts about the usefulness of numerology
B. to persuade readers about the benefits of the practices it describes
C. to describe some of the numerological practices and their purpose
D. to tease those who take such beliefs seriously

     Studying volcanoes is a demanding profession. Hazel Rymer frequently has to struggle through
rainforests, climb to the top of mountains, then climb 200 metres into the crater of active volcanoes.
But the 38-year-old volcanologist does her best to make it sound less alarming than it is. “Driving to
work is more risky,” she insists. “And the deepest I go into the crater of a volcano is about 300 metres,”
she adds, trying to make it all sound as ordinary as taking the dog for a walk.
     Hazel has been studying volcanoes for a long time, so it’s not surprising she is used to the danger.
Her interest in volcanoes began at school. A teacher gave her a book about Pompeii. “I remember
reading about the eruption of Vesuvius and the destruction of the city,” she explains. “The thought of
all those people just frozen in time had quite an effect on me and I am still excited by their dangerous
beauty today.”
     Nowadays, volcanoes are getting more and more unpredictable. There have been many changes
in sea level caused by global warming and melting ice caps. These have resulted in some dormant
volcanoes erupting, so studying them is more dangerous than ever before. Hazel says that although she
doesn’t take any unnecessary risk she has had some frightening moments. Her worst experience was
on the slopes of Mount Etna in Sicily, when she was slowly surrounded by lava. “I had a choice of
walking ten hours to get around the lava flow or just walking across it,” she explains. She chose to pick
a path across the cooler rocks in the lava stream. “I guess it was five metres. The flow was 1,000°C,
so if you hesitated your boots would begin to melt. It was scary, but it really was a practical decision -
there wasn"t time to do anything else.”
     And what about the future? “I haven’t been to the volcanoes in Indonesia yet. And I would love to
spend some time working in the Antarctic,” she says. “I would also like to know why quiet lava flows
erupt from some volcanoes and why other volcanoes go bang.” In other words, Hazel Rymer won’t
be exchanging her volcanoes for the relative safety of driving to work just yet.
1. Hazel’s claim that “driving to work is more risky” than exploring volcanoes shows that ______.
A. people have exaggerated the dangers of volcanoes in the past
B. Hazel does not really understand the dangerous situations she puts herself in.
C. there are many bad drivers in the place where Hazel lives
D. Hazel is being modest and understating the dangers she faces
2. When did Hazel first become interested in volcanoes?
A. When she was visiting Italy.
B. When she was at school.
C. When she was twenty.
D. When she saw Vesuvius.
3. The underlined word “these” (in paragraph 3) refers to __________.
A. melting ice-caps
B. volcanic eruptions
C. changes in sea level
D. higher temperatures
4. When Hazel was on Mount Etna she had to ________.
A. take a dangerous route
B. take an unnecessary risk
C. leave her boots behind
D. walk for ten hours around the mountain
5. In the future, Hazel wants to ________.
A. revisit volcanoes she knows
B. go on holiday to the Antarctic
C. find a less dangerous job
D. discover new things about volcanoes
     Next Halloween, a small vegetable that looks like a pumpkin may appear in a garden near you. The
vegetable is a type of pepper that is called "Lil" Pumpkin." It"s very special because it has orange,
pumpkin-like fruit.
     You might think that all vegetables are grown to provide food to eat. But some vegetables are grown
mainly for the lively color and holiday spirit that they bring to gardens. These are called "ornamentals
(观赏性植物)." Just like lights decorate a Christmas tree, they decorate a garden.
     The peppers were bred(培育) by Agricultural Research Service (ARS) scientists John Stommel and
Robert Griesbach. Another pepper the scientists developed is called "Pepper Jack." Because Pepper
Jack has orange and black cone shaped(锥形的) fruit, it might remind you of the popular Halloween
treat "candy corn."
     Stommel says that vegetable crops such as peppers were first widely grown in Europe in the 15th
century. At that time, people liked these crops more because they looked pretty than because they
provided food.
     Back then, when a gardener grew plants for decoration and plants for food, the garden was called a
"potager." An example of this is the large gardens on the lawns(草坪) of castles and very large homes
where kings and queens lived, One of those large royal homes was the French king"s palace at
Versailles during the 1600"s. The palace is still there today, and people from all over the world still go
there to visit and see the gardens.
     Today, Stommel says using vegetables as decorations in gardens has become popular again.
     So you might be wondering, if these peppers are for decoration, can people eat them? Yes, but the
fruit from both of these peppers has a sharp taste (kind of like onions!)
     These peppers are scheduled to become available in mid2011. These pretty peppers can be grown
in containers and also in garden beds. They grow best with plenty of light and warm temperatures,
Stommel says.
1. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Different kinds of peppers.
B. The history of peppers.
C. Peppers with the Halloween spirit.
D. Food for the Halloween festival.
2. What do we know about "Lil" Pumpkin" and "Pepper Jack"?
A. They are used to decorate Christmas trees.
B. They are grown mainly to provide food to eat.
C. Their fruits have different shapes.
D. Their fruits are the same color.
3. The underlined word "they" in Paragraph 2 refers to "______".
A. these vegetables  
B. these holidays
C. these lights  
D. these scientists
4. According to the passage, a potager was ______.
A. the place where kings and queens lived
B. the garden in the French king"s palace
C. a place providing vegetables for the royal homes
D. a garden with plants for decoration and for food

     After a discussion last week, "Do School Libraries Need Books?", the comments from readers
included some firsthand views from students.Below are excerpts(摘录) from their observations on
how studying has changed and how they use libraries.
      It makes little difference whether the book you are reading is electronic or paper.But if you want
a place to read, a library is still the place to go.As a kid in school, I often avoid the study hall noises
and go to the quiet school library.The library is a place.A learning place.Modern technology won"t
change the library as long as things are learned.
     -Scott
      Being a student I am aware that many of us seldom look at the books in the library unless told to
do so by a teacher as a requirement for an assignment.It takes time to find the very book you want at
the library, and it may not be necessary to do so.More and more students, such as myself, use the
Internet for nearly every assignment.There are countless online resources for us to use with a click of
the mouse.What"s more, books are very expensive and schools could put that money toward charities.
     -HayleyH
     I hope schools continue to have libraries.As a student, I know there is a difference between reading
something on a screen and something printed.When I read something in a book that I do not understand
or want to look further into, I record it and will research later or discuss with someone.With a screen
(especially online) I will instantly access the information and look into the question at hand, which
interrupts my reading and especially my imagination.
      -Allie
      To me, it depends on the purpose of the book.As a student, I prefer to do research online.Online
research is faster and more efficient.But when I"m reading for pleasure, I absolutely refuse to give up
a real book.The tactile sensation(触感) and freedom that real books give you really makes the reading
experience more enjoyable.So, my suggestion is that schools have more digital collections for research
and scholarly work, and a good selection of interesting and ageappropriate fiction and nonfiction for
pleasure reading.
     -CM
