AHave you ever heard the story of the four-minute miles? Many years ago, people believed that it was impossible for a human Being to run a mile in less than four minutes until Roger Banister proved it wrong in 1954.What happens if you put an animal in a pond? Any animal, big or small, will swim its way through. What happens when someone, who doesn’t know how to swim, falls in deep waters? They drown. If an animal who has not learnt swimming couldescape by swimming, why not you? Because you believe you will drown while the animal doesn’t.Have you ever wondered why the letters are organized in a particular order on your keyboard? You might have thought it is to increase the typing speed. Most people never question it. But the fact is that this system was developed to reduce the typing speed at a time when typewriter parts would jam(堵塞)if the operator typed too fast.These three cases show the power of our beliefs. There is no other more powerful directing force in human behavior than belief. Your beliefs have the power to create and to destroy. A belief delivers command to your nervous system.I used a snake in my workshops for children to show them how unrealistic some of their beliefs are. Students of a school in India, said snakes are slippery and slimy and poisonous. After doing an exercise for changing beliefs, they handled my snake and found it to be dry and clean. They also remembered that only three types of poisonous snakes exist in India.Did this story end the way you thought? Review your beliefs now and find out which ones you need to change?36. In the author’s opinion, if a person in deep water doesn’t know how to swim, hewill drown because______A.he is afraid of water. B .he believes he will drown.B.he hasn’t learnt to swim before. C .he don’t want to live in the world.37. According to the passage, the way the letters organized on your keyboard is to________A. save more spaceB. satisfy the operatorC. reduce one’s typing speed D increase one’s typing speed38.

According to the passage, we know that_____A. students from India have unrealistic beliefs on how to live a better lifeB. an animal who hasn’t learnt how to swim will drown if you put it in pond.C. most people don’t like the order the letters are arranged on your keyboardD. Roger Banister was the first person who ran a mile in less than four minutes.40. The main idea of this passage should be that______A. beliefs are very powerful.B. Beliefs make us seem stupidC. Changing your beliefs now is necessaryD. People should always believe in themselves.BWhen Andrea Peterson landed her first teaching job, she faced the daunting task of creating a music program with almost no money for equipment or supplies in a climate where standards-based learning was the focus and music just provided a break for students and teachers.For her drive and creativity in overcoming those challenges, she’s been named national teacher of the year.Principal Waynes Kettler said he’s worked with many outstanding teachers in his 22 years as an educator, but Peterson is “just that one step above anybody I’ve ever worked with before.”Kettler and others at Monte Cristo Elementary School talk about the ways she has introduced the learning from other classrooms into her music program and her creativity in working around things such as the lack of money for new music.When students were reading S.E.Hinton’s novel The Outsiders in their regular classroom, Peterson helped them write a 30-minute play with scenes from the book.Then they chose three Broadway tunes that focused on race, equality and social justice, the themes of the book.Peterson composed two other songs herself after classroom discussions about the play and the book.The honor means a lot to residents of Granite Foils.It’s inspiring to know that people from small towns even win national honors.As national teacher of the year, Peterson will spend the more years outside the classroom, as a national and international spokeswoman for education.She said it’s essential for schools to offer classes such as art or music and physical education because for some kids one of those subjects is the only thing that attracts them to come back to school day after day.41.The underlined w ord “ daunting” in Paragraph 1 most probably means __________.A.discouraging B.interesting C.creative D.unbearable42.When Peterson began her teaching career, ____________.A.music was a focus of learning in most schoolsB.the environment was favorable to music teachingC.the school lacked teaching facilities for musicD.support for music programs was unavailable43.What is the most important reason that Peterson won the award?A.She concerned herself with current social problems.B.She motivated students to learn music with her creativity.C.She has taught music at the elementary school for 22 years.D.She made great efforts to amuse students’ interest in literature.44.Which of the following is an example of Peterson’s way of teaching musi c?A.She wrote plays on themes of race, equality and social justice.B.She made use of the contents of other classes in her teaching.C.She organized classroom discussions of Broadway tunes.D.She helped students compose songs by themselves.45.In Peterso n’s opinion, ____________.A.art music and PE classes are all importantB.more subjects should be offered to studentsC.students should be motivated to attend art classesD.arts education is more important than other subjectsCWhen We speak and when we write we represent ideas and feelings with words.In painting, ideas and feelings are presented by paint,by color,shape and line,etc.Painting is language There are many different languages in the world.There are the traditional languages of the many countries and cultures,and there are the special languages of scientists,sports lovers and others.There are just as many styles of painting in the world.In the National Gallery in London there are about 450 pictures,painted at different periods in history and by very different people,so many of these are very different from each other.We have to learn to understand and to speak a language.In the same way,we have to learn to understand a style of painting before we can begin to appreciate all its qualities and what the artist is trying to say to us.Babies have to learn to see and thenlearn to understand what they see.Seeing and understanding are not like breathing!They are not instinctive.When blind people have an operation in hospital they have to learn to see.At first everything is just a wild pattern of colors and light.They have to see the information which tells them about how near objects are.They have to learn to associate the shape of cat with what they have previously known through sound,touch and smell.We are learning to see all the time.Someone who is learning to drive a car may see as much as the other road users,but he may not understand what is important,An experienced car driver has learnt to understand what he or she sees.46.What is the main idea in the first paragraph?A.There are many pictures in

Last Sunday evening, we invited some people home for dinner. I dressed them nicely for the party, and told them that their job was to join Mommy in answering the door when the bell rang. Mommy would introduce them to the guests, and then they would take theguests' coats upstairs and put them on the bed in the second bedroom.The guests arrived. I introduced my two daughters to each of them. The adults were nice and kind and said how lucky we were to have such good kids.Each of the guests made a particular fuss over Kelly, the younger one, admiring her dress, her hair and her smile. They said she was a remarkable girl to be carrying coats upstairs at her age.I thought to myself that we adults usually make a big "to do" over the younger one because she's the one who seems more easily hurt. We do it with the best of intentions.But we seldom think of how it might affect the other child. I was a little worried that Kristen would feel she was being outshined. I was about to serve dinner when I realized that she had been missing for twenty minutes. I ran upstairs and found her in the bedroom, crying.I said, "What are you doing, my dear?"She turned to me with a sad expression and said, "Mommy, why don't people like me the way they like my sister? Is it because I 'm not pretty? Is that why they don't say nice things about me as much?"I tried to explain to her, kissing and hugging her to make her feel better.Now, whenever I visit a friend's home, I make it a point to speak to the elder child first.51.The underlined expression ' make a big "to do" over' (paragraph 4) means ______.A.show much concern about B.have a special effect onC.list jobs to be done for D.do good things for52.The guests praised Kelly for carrying coats upstairs because of her ______.A.beautiful hair B.pretty clothesC.lovely smile D.young age53.Kristen felt sad and cried because ______.A.the guest gave her more coats to carryB.she didn't look as pretty as KellyC.the guests praised her sister more than herD.her mother didn't introduce her to the guests54.We can conclude from the passage that ______.A.parents should pay more attention to the elder childrenB.the younger children are usually more easily hurtC.people usually like the younger children moreD.adults should treat children equally55.Which of the following saying is right?A.Kristen and Kelly are not getting along with each other.B.Kristen is older than Kelly.C.The mother likes Kristen more than Kelly.D.People usually talk more to Kelly than they do to Kristen.第Ⅱ卷(共65分)第一节阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,并根据要求完成文章后的题目。
