【題目】閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的選項(xiàng)中選出最佳答案。
C
During my elementary (基礎(chǔ)的) school years, I used to compare my mom with my best friend Tiffany's mom.
Tiffany's mom always gave her lots of money to buy the most fashionable clothes and favorite food. Her mom allowed her to do anything she liked. I really admired Tiffany. My mom didn't give me much pocket money and she always told me that I should behave myself. I was angry with her.
Whenever I didn't get what I wanted, I would complain to my mom, Tiffany's mom would give her that! I wish she were my mom. Every time, my mom would calmly say "Poor Tiffany". I couldn't understand her. "She shouldn't be feeling sorry for Tiffany!" I thought. "She should be feeling sorry for me."
One day, I couldn't help saying to Mom, "Poor Tiffany? Lucky Tiffany! She gets everything she wants! Why do you feel sorry for her?" Iburst into tears.
My mom sat down next to me and said softly. "Yes, I do feel sorry for her. I have been teaching you a lesson that she will never be taught."
I looked up at her. "What are you talking about?" Mom said with care, "One day she will really want something. Maybe she'll find out that she can't have it. Her mother won't always be around to give her money, and what's more, money can't buy everything."
She continued, "I have taught you useful lessons by not giving you everything you want. You'll know how to be yourself and save money, but she won't. You'll understand that you need to work hard to get the things that you want but she won't. When Tiffany is a grown woman, she'll wake up one day and she will be wishing that she had a mom like the one you've got. Life lessons are more important than modern clothes and delicious food."
It took some time, but I finally understood my mom's words. Now I am a happy and successful woman.

【題目】 No one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world, but estimates (估計(jì))suggest the figure is over 450 million. The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.

In the United Kingdom, about one in ten people have some disability. Disability is not just something that happens to other people: as we get older, many of us will become less mobile, hard of hearing or have falling eyesight.

Disablement can take many forms and occur at any time of life. Some people are born with disabilities. Many others become disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases. The longer time goes on, the worse they become. Some people are disabled in accidents. Many others may have a period of disability in the form of a mental illness. All are affected by people's attitude towards them.

Disabled people face many physical problems. Next time you go shopping or to work or to visit friends, imagine how you would manage if you could not get up steps, or onto buses and trains. How would you cope if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic? But there are other problems: prejudice (偏見) can be even harder to break down and ignorance is undoubtedly the greatest problems of all. It is almost impossible for the normal people to fully appreciate what the severely(嚴(yán)重) disabled go through, so it is important to draw attention to these problems and show that it is the individual person and their ability that count, not their disability.

1The first paragraph points out that___________________.

A.there are many disabled people in the world

B.the number of disabled people in India is the greatest

C.India has much more disabled people than Canada

D.it is impossible to get an exact figure of the world’s disabled people

2What does the underlined word “occur” mean in paragraph 3?

A.disappearB.happenC.stopD.improve

3The key word in Paragraph 4 is __________.

A.disabilityB.ignoranceC.prejudiceD.problems

4It can be concluded from the passage that _________________________.

A.we should try our best to stop disability from happening

B.both physical and mental problems are hard to break down

C.we must take a proper attitude towards the disabled

D.the normal people will never fully understand the disabled

Emily is a music teacher. She has always made some money by giving piano lessons. She had a student named Robby. He was 11 years old when his mother took him to his first piano lesson. Emily thinks that students should begin at an earlier age, which she explained to Robby.

And well … she was born deaf, so tonight was the first time she ever heard me play. I wanted to make it special."

【題目】信息歸納。閱讀下面這篇關(guān)于如何養(yǎng)成做筆記習(xí)慣的文章,根據(jù)所提供的信息,完成信息卡。
In classes, your teachers will talk about the topic that you are studying. The information they provide will be important for you to know when you take tests. So you must be able to take good written notes from what your teachers say.
Here are three stages(階段) of taking notes and what you should do during each stage.
1) Before Class Review your notes you have taken before you come to class. This will be good for remembering what was covered. Get you ready to understand new information your teacher will provide.
2) During Class Pay your attention to what your teacher is saying and "the signal words" that tell you what your teacher is going to say. It is important to write them down in your notes. Examples of signal words are "The important point……" and "Remember that……", and so on. Be sure to write in your notes the information that your teacher repeats or writes on the blackboard. Write quickly so that you can include all the important information in your notes. Do this by writing abbreviations(縮寫) such as "med" for medicine, using symbols such as "%" for percent, and writing short sentences.
3) After Class Rewrite your notes to make them more complete and accurate (準(zhǔn)確的) by changing abbreviations into whole words, symbols into words, and shortened sentences into longer sentences. Use them to answer your questions. If necessary, ask your teacher for help.
