15.There is no doubt about it.The best way to learn new words is to do it unconsciously.I don't mean while you're unconscious.I mean while you are unconscious of the fact that it is sinking in.
That is how I learnt the 30,000 words in my vocabulary by living in an English-speaking world,mother tongue.I just pick them up.But some of them may be misunderstood.Now,to misunderstand does not mean not to understand.To misunderstand is to understand but incorrectly.
The 5% mislearnt of all the words we"know"will be the least frequently used words,as the more frequently used words are less likely to be mislearnt.Some of the misunderstanding may live with all our lives,without knowing that we got them wrong.
Many English teachers think that this natural method of learning words in one's own mother tongue can be used for a second language learning.They teach their students how to play the Guessing Game."There is no time to look up in your dictionaries all the new words you come across,"they will say."You have to practice guessing what the word means from the context."
This method of guessing in a second language learning does not work.It may succeed in many cases,but results in hundreds or thousands of wrongly-guessed meanings of words.
And what's more,there are more separate meanings than there are words themselves.Our learners'dictionaries usually have many meanings.A good dictionary is what makes self-learning possible.
Don't guess!Look it up!

A.to learn them by oneself
B.to learn by living in an English-speaking world and using them frequently
C.to guess them from the context
D.to get more separate meanings of each word

71.It can be inferred thatB.
A.when somebody is conscious,he or she usually can't learn new words by heart
B.we must use the words as often as possible in order to master them

3.Each spring brings a new blossom of wildflowers in the ditches(路溝) along the  highway I travel daily to work.
    There is one particular blue flower that has alwayscaught my eye.I've noticed that it blooms only in the morning hours,the afternoon sun is too warm for it.Every day for  approximately two weeks,I see those beautiful flowers.
    This spring,I started a wildflower garden in our yard.I can look out of the kitchen  window while doing the dishes and see the flowers.I've often thought that those lovely blue flowers from the ditch would look great in that bed alongside other wildflowers.
    Every day I drove past the flowers thinking,"I'll stop on my way home and dig them.""Gee,I don't want to get my good clothes dirty…"I had wanted to stop and dig them but I didn't make it anyhow.My husband even gave me a folding shovel(釬)one year to be used for that expressed purpose.
    One day on my way home from work,I was saddened to see that the highway  department had mowed the ditches and the pretty blue flowers were gone.I thought to  myself,"Way to go,you waited too long.You should have done it when you first saw them blooming this spring.''
    A week ago we were shocked and saddened to know that my oldest sister-in-law has a terminal brain tumor(腦瘤晚期).She is 20 years older than my husband and unfortunately,because of age and distance,we haven't been as close as we all would have liked.
    I couldn't help but see the connection between the pretty blue flowers and the relationship between my husband's sister and us.I do believe that God has given us some time left to plant some wonderful memories that will bloom every year for us.
    And yes,if I see the blue flowers again,you can bet I'll stop and transplant them to my wildflower garden.

56.What's tile best title of the passage?(No more than 10 words)Value now and don't lose chances.
57.Please explain the underlined phrase"caught my eye" in English.(No more than 5 words)drew my attention
58.According to the passage,what does the author mean by saying"I had wanted to stop and dig them but I didn't make it anyhow."(No more than 10 words)To tell us catch chances
59.What did the writer think to do with those lovely blue flowers from the ditch this   spring?(No more than l0 words)transplant them to my wildflower garden
60.What do you learn from the passage?(No more than 20 words)Charish what we own and never lose chance.

10.Contrary to many people believe,highly intelligent children are not necessarily certain to achieve academic success.In fact,so-called gifted students may fail to do well because they are unusually smart.Ensuring that a gifted child reaches his or her potential requires an understanding of what can go wrong and how to satisfy the unusual learning requirements of extremely bright young people.
One common problem gifted kids face is that they,and those around them,place too much importance on being smart.Such an emphasis can encourage a belief that bright people do not have to work hard to do well.Although smart kids may not need to work hard in the lower grades,when the work is easy,they may struggle and perform poorly when the work gets harder because they do not make the effort to learn.If the academic achievement of highly intelligent children remains below average for an extended period,many teachers will fail to recognize their potential.As a result,such students may not get the encouragement they need,further depressing their desire to learn.They may fall far behind in their schoolwork and even develop behavior problems.
IQ is just one element among many in the recipe for success-Children develop well or struggle in school for a host of reason apart from IQ.These include motivation(積極性)and persistence,social competence,and the support of family,educators and friends.
Because highly gifted children solve the most varied thought problems faster and more thoroughly than those with more average talents do,they need additional intellectual stimulation while they wait for the rest of the kids to learn the basics.Two central approaches are used to satisfy the educational needs of such children:acceleration and enrichment.Acceleration means studying material that is part of the standard subjects for older students.Enrichment involves learning information that falls outside the usual subjects.
A child might skip one or more grades as a way of accelerating in school.But being with older children for the entire school day-and perhaps for grade-based extracurricular activities such as sports-can make a child feel inferior in every realm outside of academics.One very bright fourth-grader who had skipped two grades remained far ahead of his classmates intellectually,but as his classmates reached puberty(青春期),his social and other shortcomings became painfully apparent.While acceleration is not an option,or not a good one,enrichment can be.After all,school is not a race but an adventure in learning.As such,the goal is not finishing first but absorbing as much knowledge as possible in the time assigned.Thus,providing opportunities for a child to study topics outside the regular subjects can be at least as valuable as pushing him or her through the required material faster.

72.What is the basic reason for the low academic achievement of highly intelligent children?B
A.Teachers'failure to recognize their potential.
B.Too much emphasis on being intelligent.
C.Studying topics outside the regular subjects.
D.Lack of encouragement from teachers.
73.According to the passage,which of the following belongs to enrichment activities for talented children?C
A.Skipping one of more grades and studying together with older children.
B.Learning the same material in the standard subjects for older students.
C.Learning information that is not included in the regular subjects.
D.Learning how to read with fluency even in their pre-school days.
74.Which of the following statements do you think is true about the writer?A
A.He is in favor of enrichment rather than acceleration.
B.He is in favor of acceleration rather than enrichment.
C.He speaks highly of both enrichment and acceleration.
D.He thinks neither enrichment nor acceleration is a good choice.
75.In this article,the writer intends toD.
A.point out the weaknesses of acceleration for gifted children
B.compare acceleration with enrichment for gifted children
C.stress the importance of enrichment for gifted children
D.discuss how to bring out gifted children's potential.

20.I remember a time I went shopping on my first visit to Macau.Coming from cold and cloudy England,I was prepared for the sun and dresssed in a T-shirt and a short skirt.Not having much chance to enjoy the sun in the UK and having naturally fair skin,my legs are very white.In the UK this is not a fashionable(時(shí)尚的) look at all.Most women spend every sunny day out in the sun trying to get darker skin.The darker the skin,the better the look.
As I walked around one shop,the two shop assistants didn't take their eyes off me the whole time,talking quietly in Chinese.I began to feel uncomfortable and asked my friend if we could leave.After we left the shop,she asked me what was wrong.I was embarrassed that they were talking about my white skin.My friend laughed."They were not laughing at you.They were saying how nice your legs are.Many Chinese women want to have white skin like yours.In fact,there are many beauty products in the shops to make skin whiter and a lot of money is spent on them."
It just goes to show that we always think what others have is better.The grass is always greener on the other side.If the women of the West and East thought the same way,Western women wouldn't spend so much money on cream that makes skin darker and women from the East wouldn't need to use cream that makes skin whiter.

81.What is the writer telling about?
her first shopping in Macau
82.What did the writer prepare to do during her visit?
She prepared to enjoy the sun and get darker skin
83.Why did the writer want to leave the shop at once?
Because she thought the shop assistants were laughing at her white skin.
84.Why did the writer think the shop girls were laughing at her?
Because they didn't take their eyes off her the whole time
85.What does the underlined sentence"The grass is always greener on the other side"mean?
It means people always think what others have is better.

7.The weather is getting hotter.You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school.A cold drink may be just the thing.But be careful what you are drinking.Something that looks cool may not be good for your health.There are plenty of"energy drinks"on the market.Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names.The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health.Sounds great!
But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine(咖啡堿)in them.These drinks are especially aimed at young people,students,busy people and sports players.Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake.But be careful not to drink too much.Caffeine makes your heart beat fast.Because of this,the International Olympic Committee(IOC) has limited(限制) its use.Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea.Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks.Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous,have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems.Scientists say that teenagers should be  discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.
