A

Did you know that Albert Einstein could not speak until he was four years old, and did not read until he was seven? His parents and teachers worried about his mental ability.

Beethoven's music teacher said about him，“As a composer(作曲家)he is hopeless.” What if this young boy believed it?

When Thomas Edison was a young boy, his teachers said he was so stupid that he could never learn anything. He once said, ‘‘I remember I used to never be able to get along at school. I was always at the foot of my class…My father thought I was stupid, and I almost decided that l was a stupid person.” What if young Thomas believ ed what they said about him?

When the sculptor(雕刻家) Auguste Rodin was young, he had difficulty learning to read and write. His father said of him, "I have an idiot(白痴) for a son. ”His uncle agreed. "He's uneducable," he said. What if Rodin had doubted his ability?

Walt Disney was once fired by a newspaper editor because he was thought to have no "good ideas". Enrico Caruso was told by one music teacher, "you can't sing. You have no voice at all. " And an editor told Louisa May Alcott that she was unable to write anything that would be popular .

What if these people had listened and become discouraged? Where would our world be without the music of Beethoven, the art of Rodin or the ideas of Albert Einstein and Walt Disney? As Oscar Levant once said, "It's not what you are but what

you don't become that hurts. "

Before you were my teacher, I thought that teaching was the last thing I wanted to do. Why would someone want to come in every day and attempt to instruct students, many of whom couldn't care less, or to get paid very little compared with the work he or she put in?

You may have thought that the only thing I was learning from you was the course, but that’s not all l learned. From reference books to funny jokes, you made each class exciting. You always tried to make class charming so that we could be excited about learning. However, those days have gone by.

Whenever I was confused and needed extra help, you were the exact one to turn to. I would walk into your room for help and there would be several kids. You ran from one student to the next helping each one through their confusion. You could have gone back home after the bell rang. Instead, you chose to stay and care about what your students did.

You didn't only care about my learning, but you also cared about other things I was involved in. At the beginning of the year, we wrote down our hobbies and interests. You remembered what we wrote, too. I had missed class for track meets (田径运动会)and when I came back the next day, you would ask me how it went. Many of the teachers never bothered to ask what I liked to do.

These things showed me the value of teaching. They showed me how much of an influence a teacher can have on a student. I want to be the one that influences students and pushes them toward success. I want students to leave my classroom thinking that their time was worthwhile (值得的). I want to be the inspiration for them that you were for me. Whenever it gets hard for me to continue on this path, I’ll remember you and what you did for me.

28. What did the author think of teaching before the teacher taught him?

A. Dull but worthwhile.

B. Boring and low-paid.

C. Honorable but dangerous.

D. Challenging and easily-attacked.

29. How did the author find the teacher’s class in Paragraph 2?

A. Disappointing.

B. Difficult.

C. Wonderful.

D. Common.

30. The teacher asked his students to write down their hobbies and interests to

_________.

A. understand them better

B. involve them in more activities

C. treat them differently

D. control them in a better way

31. What does the author think the value of teaching lies in?

A. The care and passion that teachers have.

B. The process of students’ forming a good habit.

C. The successful students whom a teacher has taught,

D. The influence on students’ development in the future.

D

Getting stuck in a traffic jam is one of the most boring problems for people living in big cities. The fact that you’re moving so slowly leads to stress, anger and the wish that your car could just fly over the traffic like an airplane.?

Soon, however, that wish could come true. On May 8, US car-hailing (叫车) company Uber showed off what it described as “the transportation mode (模式) of the future: on-demand air transport,” reported ABC News.

According to Nikhil Goel, head of products for Uber Air, the company’s air taxi service may launch test flights in the US cities of Dallas and Los Angeles, as well as Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, as early as 2020. If everything goes according to plan, passengers will be able to fly to work by 2023.

When the Olympics comes to L os Angeles in 2028, Uber “expects to have hundreds, if not thousands, of its aircraft in the skies,” Goel told Newsweek.

So what would Uber’s flying vehicles be like?

They are small, electric aircraft that take off and land vertically (垂直地), that give off zero emissions (排放) and are quiet enough to operate in cities.

Just like an airplane, the vehicles will have fixed wings to help them glide (滑翔). But while a helicopter has just one big fixed rotor (旋翼), Uber’s vehicles will have multiple rotors, which will help increase fuel efficiency (效率) while reducing emissions and noise.

Because of these fixed wings and multiple rotors, Uber’s flying taxis “should theoretically be quieter and safer than a helicopter,” reported ABC News.

H owever, the upcoming service still has a long way to go before it’s ready to accept passengers. But just as Dubai’s Mayor Betsy Price said in a news release, “This program is revolutionary and future-oriented (面向未来的).”

32 .Uber’s flying taxis are expecte d to start to take passengers ______.

A. in 2020

B. in 2023

C. in 2028

D. in 2030

33. How are Uber’s flying taxis different from helicopters?

A. They have one big rotor.

B. They need more fuel to fly.

C. They have fewer fixed wings.

D. They should be quieter and safer.

34. What is the article mainly about?

A. Uber’s plan to launch flying taxis.

B. The difficulties Uber is facing in testing flying vehicles.

C. The advantages of Uber’s flying taxis.

D. Different opinions about Uber’s fly ing taxis.

35. Where is the passage probably taken from?

A. A travel brochure

B. A health magazine

C.A physics textbook

D. A newspaper

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。

How to teach kids responsibility

We’d all like our kids to develop into responsible people. How can we help to ensure that our kids learn the lessons of responsibility? Here are some ideas: Start them with tasks when they’re young.

36 They can do a lot more than you think if you’re patient and creative. Encourage them to begin at an early age, and this helps them build confidence for later tasks in their life.

Don’t use rewards with your kids.

If you want your kids to develop a natural sense of responsibility, they need to learn what they do affects others not just themselves. 37

Use natural results when they make mistakes.

If they keep losing their baseball glove somewhere, let them deal with the results. Maybe they have to ask to borrow one for the game. 38 If you help them every time they make a mistake, they’ll never learn responsibility.

39

This is where they’ll learn it from. Take care of your things. Try to be on time. They’re watching you very closely.

Give them an allowance (零用钱) early in their life.

Let them make their own money decisions from an early age. They’ll learn their lessons in a hurry. 40

A. Model responsible behavior for your kids.

B. Maybe they have to buy a new one if it’s lost.

C. Don’t help them out if they run out of money.

D. Train your kids to be responsible and careful.

E. They won’t learn that if they’re focused on what they’re going to “get”.

F. Young kids have a strong desire to help out, even as young as age two.

G. They’ll pick up on this belief and they’ll tend to rise to the level of expectation.

阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

For many people, it is a kind of temptation（诱惑）to find an unattended(无人照看的) wallet filled with ￡400 in cash. And it would be more attractive, if you were a homeless man with little food and money. All of this makes the actions of the homeless Tom Smith 41 more outstanding.

After seeing a 42 on the front seat inside a parked car with its window down, he stood guard in the rain for about two hours waiting for the 43 to return.

After hours in the cold and wet, he reached inside and pulled the wallet out hoping to find some ID so he could contact（联系）the driver, only to 44 it contained ￡400 in notes, with another ￡50 in spare change beside it.

He then took the wallet to a nearby police station after 45 a note behind to let the owner know it was safe. When the car’s owner John Anderson and his colleague Carol Lawrence returned to the car—which was itself worth ￡35, 000—in Glasgow city centre, they were 46 to find two policemen standing next to it. The policemen told them what Mr. Smith did and that the wallet was 47 .

The pair were later able to thank Mr. Smith for his 48 .

Mr. Anderson said: “I couldn’t believe that the guy never to ok a penny, 49 he is homeless. This guy has nothing and yet he didn’t take the wallet for himself; he thought about others 50 . It’s unbelievable. It just proves there are 51 guys out there.”

Mr. Smith’s act drew much of the public’s attention. H e also won praise from social media users after Mr. Anderson 52 about the act of kindness on Facebook.

Now Mr. Anderson has started an online movement to raise money for Mr. Smith and other homeless people in the area, which by yesterday had received ￡8,000. “I think the faith that everyone has shown 53 him has touched him. People have been getting close to him in the street; he’s had job54 of all sorts,” Mr. Anderson said.

For Mr. Smith, this is a possible life-changing 55 . The story once again tells us that one good turn deserves another.

41. A. still B. even C. ever D. once

42. A. wallet B. bag C. box D. parcel

43. A. partner B. colleague C. owner D. policeman

44. A. discover B. collect C. check D. believe

45. A. taking B. leaving C. reading D. writing

46. A. satisfied B. excited C. amused D. shocked

47. A. safe B. missing C. found D. seen

48. A. service B. support C. kindness D. encouragement

49. A. although B. if C. where D. because

50. A. too B. though C. again D. instead

51. A. honest B. polite C. rich D. generous

52. A. learned B. posted C. cared D. heard

53. A. of B. at C. for D. in

54. A. details B. changes C. offers D. applications

55. A. lesson B. adventure C. chance D. challenge
