Nelle Harper Lee was born on April 28,1926. Since Lee’s mother was mentally ill, she was raised by her father. She became very close to her father.
The naughty Lee loved reading, and would make up stories with Truman Capote, her neighbor who was two years older than her. Seeing his daughter’s imagination, Lee’s father gave her a typewriter.
Before her final year in the University of Alabama, Lee dropped out to become a writer. She moved to New York City where her childhood friend Truman was already established as a famous writer. While there, she worked on her first book — To kill a Mockingbird. It won her the Pulitzer Prize in 1961 and was made into an Academy Award winning movie the following year.
To kill a Mockingbird tells the story of six-year-old Scout and her brother who live in the town of Maycomb, Alabama with their single father Atticus. Atticus is a lawyer who defends the
blacks. At a young age, Scout is exposed to the terrors of segregation(种族隔离).
Then, in 2014, the first draft of a new book — Go Set a Watchman was discovered among Lee’s papers. It is the story of 26-year-old Scout who returns to Maycomb to visit her father. She is shocked to find her father a changed man. Atticus has turned into a segregationist! The story shows the mixed feelings Scout has for the changes that have taken place in her hometown and father.
A loner for most of her life, Harper Lee stayed unmarried, preferring to lead a small town life. On February 19, 2015, Harper Lee passed away at the age of 89.

Climate change could turn the Arctic Ocean into a high-speed ice superhighway. Large pieces of sea ice in the Arctic are becoming thinner as old ice melts. The new ice that’s replacing it travels farther and faster than the older ice had. As the new ice travels, it carries dirt, organisms and pollution along for the ride, new research shows.
Researchers have been tracking the movements of the Arctic ice for several years. They noticed that the area covered by ice making the trip from one side of ocean to the other has grown larger and larger. That movement means that far-away reaches of the Arctic are becoming more connected, notes Robert Newton, from Columbia University.
The speedy ice is a problem, he explains. “The ice in the Arctic is surprisingly polluted,” he said. “When the ice travels from one part of the Arctic to the other, it carries all that material with it.”
Winds sweep airborne pollution north from lower latitudes. Much of that pollution can settle into the ocean and onto sea ice. Industries along Arctic coastlines, such as gold mining and oil drilling, also can pollute the region’s waters. As new ice forms in the fall and winter, that pollution gets trapped inside the ice. When that ice then melts in the spring and summer, it’ll bring the pollution it carried back into the ocean.
In the study, the researchers put together pictures of the Arctic. The pictures came from satellites far above the surface. They used computer software that can recognize the edges of sea ice. This allowed them to follow the movements of the ice from formation to melting. To help them do that, they also included tracking buoys(浮标)on the ice that had been equipped with GPS devices.
About 60% of the Arctic ice travels less than 100 kilometers from its birthplace, they found. The rest covers an area equal to tens of thousands of square kilometers. It can travel hundreds or even thousands of kilometers. And that ice is moving faster as well.
25.What does the text focus on?
A. Climate change is becoming more serious.
B. The Arctic ice travels fast and carries pollution.
C. It’s difficult to follow the movements of the ice.
D. The Arctic is likely to be covered by the ice.
26.Robert Newton considers the speedy ice to be a problem because it_______.
A. travels much faster than before
B. is much easier to pollute than before
C. results in more environmental disasters
D. increases the risk of spreading pollution
27.The fourth paragraph is intended to show how______.
A. the ice gets polluted
B. the ocean is damaged
C. the ice comes into being
D. the ocean changes the ice
28.What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A. Using computer software.
B. Taking photos of the Arctic.
C. Following the movements of the ice.
D. Collecting pictures through satellites.
C
Who knows why kids do anything? When it comes to cyberbullying (网络欺凌), they are often motivated by anger or frustration (挫败感). Sometimes they do it for entertainment or because they are bored and have too much time on their hands and too many tech toys available to them. Many do it for laughs or to get a reaction. Some do it by accident, without thinking before they do something. The power-hungry do it to make others suffer. And some think they are righting wrong and standing up for others. Because their motives differ, the solutions and responses to each type of cyberbullying incident has to differ, too. There is no “one size fits all” when cyberbullying is concerned.
However, education can help considerably in preventing and dealing with the consequences of cyberbullying. If we can help kids understand how much bullying hurts, and how in many cases
words can hurt, fewer may cooperate with the cyberbullies. They will think twice before forwarding a hurtful e-mail, or visiting a cyberbullying “vote for the fat girl” site, or allowing others to take videos or cell phone pictures of personal moments.
And, in addition to not lending their efforts to continue the cyberbullying, we also need to teach our children not to stand silently by while others are being hurt. Martin Luther King, Jr. once said that in the end we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends. Kids will feel more comfortable to break the silence if given an anonymous (匿名的) method of reporting cyberbullying web-sites. School administration, community groups and even school policing staff can receive these anonymous tips and take action quickly.
If our children do not allow the cyberbullies to use them to embarrass or hurt others and realize that silence, when others are being hurt, is not acceptable, cyberbullying will quickly stop. It’s a tall task, but a noble goal. And in the end, our children will be safer online and offline. We will have helped create a generation of good cybercitizens, controlling the technology instead of being controlled by it.
29.Which of the following is NOT an action of cyber-bullying?
A. Saying cruel words to upset others.
B. Standing up for others.
C. V oting for the fat girl on a website.
D. Forwarding a hurtful e-mail.
30.What does the underlined sentence mean?
A. our friends will stick with us without saying anything.
B. friends will give us silent support when we are in trouble.
C. it hurts more if our friends stand by when we are suffering.
D. We will forget our enemies, but remember our friends.
31.The writer organizes the passage following the pattern of ________.
A. problem—solution
B. effect—cause
C. topic—supporting details
D. conclusion—evidence
32.What does the writer mainly tell us?
A. How much kids suffer from cyberbullying.
B. How to deal with different kinds of cyberbullies.
C. How to teach kids to take a stand against cyberbullying.
D. How to create a generation of good cybercitizens.
D
There is no doubt that schools should teach and reinforce (加强) lessons consistent with what’s widely accepted to be good citizenship. They should know how not to be beastly to one another for the over 30 hours a week they’re spending at school.
At my daughter’s school, there are various awards for academic and sporting achievements, but they save the best random rewards for acts of kindness, like going out of one’s way to help a teacher clean up or helping other kids. I’ve found this to be common among many schools in our area.
As nice as it is to have schools reinforce social sharing and contribution, I’ve found that they don’t have a hand in much of the important emotional intelligence things: how a kid deals with friction(不合，摩擦), conflicts, social sacrifice, and so on. They teach these kinds of things and provide examples, but they don’t have the resources to monitor them or know the children well enough to see if they are developing them properly in practice. Talking through these things softly and in private in times of little or no stress seems to be more effective than it would be for a teacher to talk in front of a group of other’s kids. In this way, you can have neutral（中立的）, peer-level conversations with your kid about the benefits of socially responsible actions that don’t come across as authoritative of achievement—based.
One challenge with teaching the “good members of society” thing is that unlike some other things, this really has to be modeled. However, it’s expected that your kid will be exposed to some choices for learning art, music, sports, or something that you’re not into, basic values like kindness can’t just be taught — they have to be seen and understood. Even then, the benefits are not obvious and have to be both explained and experienced.
Beyond the basics, I’d assume that motivating kids toward some kind of organized social efforts in school would be pretty controversial. Nevertheless(虽然如此), many schools do this but stop recommending this as part of life’s work.
33.What does the author think of the schools’ emotional intelligence education?
A. It’s hopeless.
B. It’s scientific
C. It’s practical.
D. It’s not enough.
34.What is the proper method of teaching basic values according to the author?
A. Modeling and experiencing.
B. Giving a detailed description.
C. Talking with kids in private.
D. Preparing more courses in values.
35.What would be the best title for the text?
A. What is more important in schools?
B. What lessons benefit students most?
C. How can students be taught effectively?
D. Should schools reinforce lesson in value?

When I was 10, I was asked to make a speech named “My Dream” before the whole class! With so many eyes fixing upon me, you can imagine how nervous I was. Therefore, I had no choice but prepare for it. To draft the speech was the easiest for me, the good writer, but the hard part lay in my oral presentation from my memory. The real moment came when I stood on the platform, my heart was beating fast and my mind blank. Much for my surprise, the listeners were sitting quietly and waiting patiently without any signs of rush me. Gradually I found me back. When I finished my speech, my audience applauded wildly. I made it! From then on, my fear of talking before an audience disappears.

Dear friends,
How time flies! Two weeks went by, and our exchange activities
ended. On behalf of my school, I would like to express my feelings.
As scheduled, we participated in several instructive activities. We learnt many Chinese characters and took plenty of exercise together. We went to the restaurant to taste the Chinese traditional food, which was very delicious. While visiting the art exhibition, we discussed the great artists’ works.
In my opinion, everyone here is part of our big family and we’ve learnt a lot from each other, which has left us a great impression and built up a better understanding. And at last, I sincerely wish you a pleasant journey back to your country. I hope we’ll get together again next year.
Thank you!
