Last weekends, my kids along with a few other kids from the neighborhood volunteered to help me wash my car. My 10-year-old daughter came up with the idea of 26 other people’s cars as well. It was pretty 27 outside and I had no plans to continue to be in the bright sun. She 28 wanted to give lemonade (柠檬汽水) to passersby for free. I had seen little kids serve and sell fresh lemonade for a small cost but not free. Although I felt 29, I decided to help her. Then she asked me, “What if we 30 this a smile car wash?” I couldn’t hold back my tears and 31 her and the other kids to go outside the house and come up with creative ideas. While I kept myself busy in drying the car, the gang walked up to me with a(n) 32 with beautiful images of smiles. They had “Free Car Wash” written on it and the theme of their exercise was “smile”. It was pretty neat to see a team of kids ranging 5-11 years with the 33 to do something for others.
All that seemed 34 and came right from their heart. Nothing seemed to 35 to them: their playtime, the heat outside—they just wanted to 36 others and do something nice in the community!
I helped them make some fresh lemonade and brought out some old 37 to help clean cars. The passersby were 38 and one even shouted back to them saying “God Bless You, my kids…” One of them even tried giving them 5 dollars, which they refused. A pretty heartwarming 39 ! I feel blessed by being 40 by such wonderful and loving souls.

Years ago a farmer owned land along the Atlantic seacoast. He constantly advertised for hired hands but never made it because most people were afraid of the awful storms.

Too much TV-watching can harm children’s ability to learn and even reduce their chances of getting a college degree, new studies suggest in the latest effort to examine the effects of television on children.
One of the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third-graders. Those with TVs in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedroom TVs.
A second study, looking at nearly 1,000 grown-ups in New Zealand, found lower education levels among 26-year-olds who had watched lots of TV during childhood. But the results don’t prove that TV is the cause and don’t rule out(排除) that already poorly motivated youngsters may watch lots of TV.
Their study measured the TV habits of 26-year-olds between ages 5 and 15. These with college degrees had watched an average of less than two hours of TV per weeknight during childhood, compared with an average of more than 2 hours for those who had no education beyond high school.
In the California study, children with TVs in their rooms but no computers at home scored the lowest, while those with no bedroom TVs but who had home computers scored the highest.
While this study does not prove that bedroom TV sets caused the lower scores, it adds to accumulating(积累) findings that children shouldn’t have TVs in their bedrooms.
46. According to the California study, the low-scoring group might________.
A. have watched a lot of TV B. not be interested in math
C. be unable to go to college D. have had computers in their bedrooms
47. What is the researchers’ understanding of the New Zealand study results?
A. Poorly motivated 26-year-olds watch more TV.
B. Habits of TV watching reduce learning interest.
C. TV watching leads to lower education levels of the 15-year-olds.
D. The connection between TV and education levels is difficult to explain.
48. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?
A. More time should be spent on computers.
B. Children should be forbidden from watching TV.
C. TV sets shouldn’t be allowed in children’s bedrooms.
D. Further studies on high-achieving students should be done.
49. The passage is probably written for ______
A. teachers B. parents C. TV sellers D. education experts.
50. What would be the best title for this text?
A. Computers or Televisions
B. Effects of Television on Children
C. Studies on TV and College Education
D. Television and Children’s Learning Habits

Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers. Braincomputer interface (BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.
Recently, two researchers, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic School in Lausanne, Switzerland, demonstrated (展示) a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person’s thoughts.
In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.
“Our brain has billions of nerve cells. These send signals through the spinal cord (脊髓) to the muscles to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles.” Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external world and also to control devices.”
The researchers designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp (头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.
Prof. Millan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands. “The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two categories: communication, and controlling devices. One example is this wheelchair.”
He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from. And the other is to guarantee that they can use the technology over long periods of time.
51. BCI is a technology that can ________.
A. help to update computer systems
B. link the human brain with computers
C. help the disabled to recover
D. control a person’s thoughts
52.How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory?
A. By controlling his muscles.
B. By talking to the machine.
C. By moving his hand.
D. By using his mind.
53.Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?
A. scalp→computer→cap→wheelchair
B. computer→cap→scalp→wheelchair
C. scalp→cap→computer→wheelchair
D. cap→computer→scalp→wheelchair
54.The team will test with real patients to ________.
A. make profits from them
B. prove the technology useful to them
C. make them live longer
D. learn about their physical condition
55.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. Switzerland, the BCI Research Center
B. New Findings About How the Human Brain Works
C. BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disabled
D. Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Injuries

第三节:参考范文(共1题,计15分)Dear friends,
Last weekend, our school had a trip. We visited a mountain village in a poor area.
Had I got off the bus when I was greatly shocked to see all the changes. It was much better than I expected. Now every family can drink fresh running water. The villages don’t have to carry water by themselves. Firewood is no longer used for cooking. Marsh gas, a new cheap clean energy, makes it very convenient to cook and light. As all families have color TV sets, they can see plays at home. Their pastimes are enjoyable and colorful. What impressed me most was that the best building in the village was the school, where all children could receive better education.
I believe the mountain village will become an even better place to live in.
