Staring at my reports, he said in a low voice, “It doesnt look like youre going to make it. Before I could ask him a question, my wife stood up, hande
11、d me my clothes, adjusted the tubes fastened to my body and said, “Lets get out of here. This man is a risk to your health. As she helped me struggle to the door, the doctor came near us. “Stay back, demanded my wife. “Stay away from us. As we walked together down the hall, the doctor attempted to c

17、 about school for a few months. However, studies have found that children typically forget between one and three months worth of school learning during the summer months. Spelling and math abilities suffer the most, while reading is not really influenced by the time off. The most probable reason for
18、 this is that most children read at least occasionally outside of the classroom, whether newspapers, magazines, books, or video game guides. However, their math and spelling skills only get exercised in the school setting. The original purpose of summer vacations was to let farm children have time o
19、ff to help work in the fields in the high growing season, but this reason is no longer valid since fewer kids actually work on farms today. Some cities in the United States, such as Los Angeles, have moved to a year-round school calendar, which may help reduce the academic decline that occurs during
20、 the long summer vacations. Most cities still use the normal nine and a half-month calendars. To improve skills and to maintain a good level of preparation, experts recommend trips to museums, summer camps, and visits to libraries to keep kids mentally active and interested throughout the summer. Th
21、ere are other educational systems that provide vacations while still keeping students skills sharp(敏锐的). For example, in Japan, students attend class for seven weeks continuously, followed by two weeks of vacation. This continues throughout the year. In Italy, students attend class six days per week
22、, but finish at 1: 30 PM each day, so that school does not dominate their life the way that it does in America. Educational specialists fear that the three-month summer vacation stops the continuity of learning. Just as students become accustomed to new concepts in reading, writing, or critical thin
23、king skills, they “shut down for an extended period. When they go back to school after the long summer vacation, they take up to two months to return to their previous level of understanding. And so the debate continues: whether to continue the present vacations or to seek changes. 26. Spelling and
24、math abilities suffer the most during the summer months because children _ . A. take the summer vacation too seriouslyB. do little work of math or spellingC. dont like spelling and mathD. have to help work in the fields27. What can be learned from the passage? A. Students read in summer vacations. B
25、. Nowadays no children work on farms in summer vacations. C. The United States has cancelled summer vacations. D. The nine and a half-month calendars help improve skills. 28. What is one of the advantages of Japans and Italys educational systems? A. They provide students with shorter vacations every
26、 year. B. The students have more free time of their own to play. C. They offer vacations without affecting students skills. D. The students attend class for longer time every week. 29. What does the underlined phrase “shut down in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Stop learning. B. Get sick. C. G
27、o on vacation. D. Concentrate on their studies. 30. What is the best title for the passage? A. How to Spend Summer Vacations?B. No More Summer Vacations. C. Summer Vacations: Change or NotD. New Educational Systems Needed(C)模拟You wake up in the morning,the day is beautiful and the plans for the day
28、are what you have been looking forward to for a long time. Then the telephone rings,you say hello, and the drama starts. The person on the other end has a depressing tone in his voice as he starts to tell you how terrible his morning is and that there is nothing to look forward to. You are still in
29、a wonderful mood? Impossible! Communicating with negative people can wash out your happiness. It may not change what you think,but communicating long enough with them will make you feel depressed for a moment or a long time. Life brings ups and downs,but some people are stuck in the wrong idea that
30、life has no happiness to offer. They only feel glad when they make others feel bad. No wonder they can hardly win others pity or respect. When you communicate with positive people,your spirit stays happy and therefore more positive things are attracted. When the dagger(匕首) of a negative person is pu
31、t in you,you feel the heavy feeling that all in all,brings you down. Sometimes we have no choice but to communicate with negative people. This could be a co-worker,or a relative. In this case,say what needs to be said as little as possible. Sometimes it feels good to let out your anger back to the n
32、egative person,but all this does is to lower you to that same negative level and they wont feel ashamed of themselves about that. Negativity often affects happiness without even being realized. The negative words of another at the start of the day can cling to(附着) you throughout the rest of your day
33、,which makes you feel bad and steals your happiness. Life is too short to feel negative. Stay positive and avoid negativity as much as possible. 31. The purpose of the first paragraph is to _ . A. make a comparisonB. offer an evidenceC. introduce a topicD. describe a daily scene32. How can negative

36、communicate with negative people as little as possible35. What is the authors attitude towards negative people? A. Favorable. B. Critical. C. Indifferent. D. Supportive.

Both provide vitamins and fiber, and both are free of fat, sodium钠 and cholesterol 胆固醇. The traditionally grown apple costs less and is a pr

39、market. The word “organic refers to the way farmers grow and process products, such as fruits, vegetables, grains, dairy products and meat.
