When I put a foot in the school for the first time, the thing that I will never forget is a big smile coming from the people of the reception. This is the kind of things that means a lot to you when you are feeling like a strange person in a country that you have never been, as it was in my case.
In the classes, I don’t know if I’m a lucky person, but the teachers that I have had, in my opinion, are excellent, very professional in their jobs, and they just seem to enjoy teaching, and make the lessons useful and classes amusing.
Another fact that I’ve really enjoyed is that the school is not only aimed at the English language knowledge. You can also find every kind of activity intended to entertain the students in their free time, with things like going to museums and galleries, visiting special places in the city or going to the very famous pub night to have a few beers with your friends. So here you have the opportunity to enjoy the stay in London, to meet new friends, and also to learn everything about the city and the British culture.
Personally, there are some facts that have not been easy for me since I arrived, like being so far away from my family, the differences between English food and the food I used to eat, and the high prices for everything. However, I am impressed about a very developed and multicultural city, with people aware of the sense of living in community, with a public transport amazingly thorough, with outstanding tourist places, with opportunities for work and with food from every part of the world that you can imagine.
I’ve experienced something priceless with my friends in London. Every time I made contact with my friends from another country, I learn about their culture. I was lucky to have such good friends. I think that time was a present for me.
What is the passage mainly about?

A.The author’s learning experience in London.
B.The friends the author made while in London.
C.The author’s progress in learning English.
D.The poor memories in a foreign country.

When setting foot in the new country, the author ________.

A.felt the great pressure from foreigners
B.was uneasy in the unfamiliar environment
C.missed everything and everyone in his back home
D.had difficulty dealing with different cultures and customs

Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A.The author’s experience in London is worthless.
B.Schools in London focus on no activities.
C.The author had some difficulty in adapting to the life in London.
D.The teachers are easily confused by the international students.

What did the author do besides his studies while in London?

A.He learned the differences between languages.
B.He got to know the city with different cultures.
C.He served at many outstanding tourists places.
D.He made contact with friends from his home.

Michelle Obama made a daring decision to return to the same designer who created her Inaugural(就职)Ball dress four years ago --- and the risk paid off.
The First Lady looked extremely attractive in a red dress by designer Jason Wu. She teamed the dramatic dress with heels by Jimmy Choo and a diamond ring by Kimberly McDonald.
She surprised the fashion world by returning to a Wu design which had been made for her.
Four years ago at her first Inauguration Ball, Michelle shone in a white, one-shouldered floor-length dress by the designer.
Wu, who was 26 at the time and had only been working in fashion for three years, saw his career take off after the First Lady’s surprise decision to wear one of his dresses.
He said at the time that he was unaware she had chosen the dress and had been watching at home on his couch and eating pizza when she appeared.
After her 2013 decision, Wu told Women’s Wear Daily: “Mrs. Obama likes to keep her secrets. She fooled me again.”
Wu released a women’s clothing and accessories(配饰)collection at Target last year and continues to be popular with the First Lady for official appointments.
The sleeveless dress with low-cut back flattered (突出)49-year-old Michelle’s arms and neat waist.
It had been created especially for her by Wu and was a departure from the dark and plain color tone she stuck to at earlier inauguration events.
Vice-President Joe Biden’s wife Jill also looked attractive in a blue silk dress by Vera Wang at the Inauguration Ball.
What does the passage mainly talk about?

A.Mrs. Obama’s 2013 decision.
B.Wu, a great designer.
C.The First Lady’s secrets.
D.Michelle Obama’s inaugural ball dress.

Michelle Obama’s brave decision proved to be a _________.

A.risk B.success C.surprise D.danger

Which of the following best describes Jason Wu?

A.Daring and gifted. B.Unusual and cautious.
C.Talented and lucky. D.Careful and brave.

We can infer from the passage that _________.

A.Wu was aware that Mrs. Obama had chosen his work again
B.Being First Lady, Mrs. Obama hasn’t stuck to her dark and plain color tone.
C.Mrs. Obama told Wu to give away her secrets
D.Mrs. Obama should have told Wu the truth

Thousands of teenagers will be able to transfer to a new wave of “studio schools” at the age of 14 to improve their chances of finding a job in UK. A dozen new-style schools are designed to act as a bridge to the workplace and cut the number of NEETs--young people not in education, employment or training.
Under plans, schools will operate longer days and work outside standard academic terms.
Each pupil will be expected to spend between four hours and two days a week on work placements with businesses linked to the school and teenagers will be assigned a personal coach to act as an academic “line manager”.
The reforms are put forward due to the fears that too many teenagers are now finishing full-time education lacking the skills needed to succeed in the workplace. According to a recent report, more than two-thirds of employers believe school and college leavers lack important “employability skills” such as customer awareness, while 55 per cent say they are unable to manage their time or daily tasks. And the number of NEETs has hit a record high, with almost one-in-five young people being left without a job or training place.
The Department for Education will announce the establishment of 12 studio schools -- meeting the need of around 3,600 teenagers -- in areas such as Liverpool, Stevenage, Stoke-on-Trent and Fulham, west London. Each one, opening in 2012, will be linked to a series of local employers. Under plans, pupils will be able to transfer out of ordinary schools to attend them between the age of 14 and 19.
The Government said all subjects would be taught “through projects, often designed with employers” -- with disciplines such as science being linked directly to local engineering firms or hospitals. Schools will operate a longer day to give pupils a better understanding of the demands of the workplace. Along with their studies, pupils will carry out work placements for four hours a week, rising to two days a week of paid work for those aged 16 to 19. They will also get the chance to take professional qualifications linked directly to the needs of local employers.
According to the passage, the NEETs are referred to those who ________.

A.often miss classes from school
B.refuse to take any kind of part-time jobs after school
C.depend on their parents to find jobs after they graduate
D.have no jobs without accepting education and work training

Compared to ordinary schools, studio schools will offer the young more ________.

A.interesting and lovely cartoons to make study easier
B.chances to get future jobs with expert job training
C.possibilities to make friends without going outside
D.lessons helping them to be admitted to universities

What makes the government decide to found studio schools?

A.The determination to solve the problem of lacking workers.
B.The doubt about whether full-time education is perfect.
C.The worry about educated people lacking working skills.
D.The increasing number of teens who drop out early.

What may most probably attract senior high school students at studio school?

A.They can find suitable jobs earlier with good qualification.
B.They will be admitted to top companies with received training.
C.They needn’t go to university thanks to received training here.
D.They may have more free time to find part-time jobs after school.

While learning the science lessons, I used to get a doubt--why ear, nose, tongue and eyes should be called as special senses? The basic reason is that these are the channels through which we maintain contact with the surroundings. Though apparently it may feel like these are individual sensory organs, they do show some connectivity. Interestingly, our hearing is less sharp after we eat a heavy food. Isn’t it good for a sound nap after a stomach-full meal? That does not mean we go deaf after a meal, but the hearing pitch(强度)does change after a heavy meal.
We usually give credit of the taste to our tongue, but do you know that unless saliva(唾液)dissolves something, our tongue cannot recognize the taste of the food eaten. Taste is nothing but the food chemicals dissolved in the saliva being sensed by the taste buds(味蕾)present on the tongue. Try to dry off your tongue and mouth with a tissue paper and then taste something.
Women are much better smellers than men. They are born with this characteristic ability and can correctly recognize the exact fragrance of the sample. We all can store almost 50,000 different smells, which are strongly tied to the memories.
Pupils(瞳孔)do not respond to light alone, but to the slightest bit of noise around too. Thus surgeons, watchmakers and those professionals who have to perform a much delicate job do prefer to have a sound-free environment. Even a small noise can enlarge their pupils, change the focus and make their vision less clear.
Each and every one of us has a particular or individualistic or characteristic smell, which is unique to us, except the twins. This smell is very subtle yet can be sensed even by a newborn. It may be due to this smell that the newborn recognizes the presence of his parents around.
What may happen after you have had a rich lunch?

A.Your eyes become weak and can not see well.
B.You may feel energetic and fresh.
C.Your hearing pitch may be decreased.
D.Your tongue may lose the function of taste.

. What does the author mean by the underlined sentence in paragraph 2?

A.Our tongues can’t be dried while eating something.
B.If your tongue is dried without any saliva on it, it will not work.
C.A tissue paper is the only thing that can be used to dry our tongues.
D.If your tongue is dried with a tissue paper, it may work as well as before.

What makes each person different from anyone else except twins according to the passage?

A.The number of sensory organs.
B.The functions of sensory organs.
C.The particular smell of a person.
D.The style of one’s behavior.

Which of the following may be the best title of this passage?

A.The Sensitivity of Sensory Organs
B.The Functions and Connections of Sensory Organs
C.A Newborn’s Sensory Organs
D.Different Senses Between Men and Woman

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
My childhood was less than ideal--in fact, I was the only girl in my family who did not run away from home during adolescence.
   . Coming from a blue-collar family and an easy rural high school to a white-collar university that gave a “C” for work that would be a “B” at another school, I felt like a misfit financially, culturally, and educationally.
Somehow I made it through my freshman year, and headed back for the second year.   .
Barb seemed the exact opposite of me.    . One day I watched Barb draw while waiting for class to start. I sighed, thinking how Barb could do anything she wanted to: draw, paint, sing, and play the guitar.
   . “I wish I was artistic,” I replied.
“Mary,” she said in amazement. “You ARE artistic!”
I figured she was just being nice, but if Barb thought I was artistic, there must be something to it, even if I thought my only artistic abilities were with words. Thanks to her, I learned to recognize my artistic abilities.
This summer I wrote to Barb and reminded her of that conversation.    . I had removed a closet in my bedroom for more space, and needed to choose colors and wall hangings. I felt quite upset. Just as I was about to give up, I heard Barb’s voice in my memory, “Mary, you ARE artistic!” With her words ringing in my head, I found the perfect color for the walls and the perfect pictures for the walls.
Thanks, Barb, for believing in me all those years ago.

A.It was 1990 when Barb said those words for me.
B.Barb heard me sigh, and asked what was wrong.
C.I let her know her words are still working their magic.
D.I’d been writing poems and short stories since I was 12.

E. She was popular, out-going, confident, talented, and artistic.
F. I’m so glad I went back, because that was the year I met Barb.
G. After high school I moved 300 miles away for college, but quickly had second thoughts about whether I belonged there.
