AThe chance of a snowy holiday season in most American cities is practically impossible this year, so any festive atmosphere to be enjoyed will have to be the imaginary sort. Luckily, there are books for that.The Complete Fairy Tales by Hans Christian AndersenAny reader of fairy tales knows Andersen’s responsible for the snowy scenes in "The Snow Queen", the story of children Kai and Gerda, who must face the goddess-like woman who controls all snowflakes after Kai is kidnapped.Family Life by Akhil SharmaIt's a beautiful yet tragic novel about an Indian family immigrating to America, only to face entirely new hardships. Sharma's novel isn't entirely set in the wintertime, but his poetic descriptions of winter weather as lovely yet isolating make it a great choice for a December read.Frankenstein by Mary ShelleyGo ahead and give up movie adaptation that has been produced recently and read or re-read the classic itself. You know the story: a scientist driven by his ambition discovers a method for creating life, and spends two years cobbling together a living creature, who later feels anger about him.An American Childhood by Annie DillardDillard's first book is, as its title suggests, about her change from being a self-centered child tobeing an adult more concerned with the world around her than with her own personal concerns. Her parents are key figure s in the story. One famous scene takes place during what the author calls “a big snow” in 1950.21. Who wrote a novel about “The Snow Queen"?A. Annie Dillard.B. Donna Tartt.C. Akhil Sharma.D. Hans Christian Andersen.22. What do we know about Frankenstein?A. It has been adapted to a movie.B. It’s about the secret history.C. It’s about an Indian family.D. It’s a fairy tale.23. From An American Childhood, we know the main characters are _____.A. self-centered children.B. adults.C. scientists.D. Dillard's parents.BIn the mid-1950s, I was a somewhat bored early-adolescent male student who believed that doing any more than necessary was wasted effort. One day, this approach threw me into embarrassment.In Mrs Totten's eighth-grade maths class at Central Avenue School in Anderson, Indiana, we were learning to add and subtract decimals (小数)．Our teacher typically assigned daily homework, which would be recited in class the following day. On most days, our grades were based on our oral answers to homework questions.Mrs Totten usually walked up and down the rows of desks requesting answers from student after student in the order the questions had appeared on our homework sheets. She would start either at the front or the back of the classroom and work towards the other end.Since I was seated near the middle of about 35 students, it was easy to figure out which questions I might have to answer. This particular time, I had completed my usual two or three problems according to my calculations.What I failed to expect was that several students were absent, which threw off my estimate. As Mrs Totten made her way from the beginning of the class, I desperately tried to determine which maths problem I would get. I tried to work it out before she got to me, but I had brain freeze and couldn't function.When Mrs Totten reached my desk, she asked what answer I'd got for problem No. 14. “I (I)didn't get anything，”I answered, and my face felt warm.“Corre ct，” she said.It turned out that the correct answer was zero.What did I learn that day? First, always do all your homework. Second, in real life it isn't always what you say but how you say it that matters. Third，I would never make it as a mathematician.If I could choose one school day that taught me the most, it would be that one.24. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 indicate?A. It is wise to value one's time.B. It is important to make an effort.C. It is right to stick to one's belief.D. It is enough to do the necessary.25.

The author failed to get the questions he had expected because _____．A. the class didn't begin as usualB. several students didn't come to schoolC. he didn't try hard to make his estimateD. Mrs Totten didn't start from the back of the class27. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. An unforgettable teacherB. A future mathematicianC. An effective approachD. A valuable lessonCChildren grow quickly, especially their feet. But many families cannot buy new shoes each time a child needs them. As a result, about 300 million children around the world go barefoot. Those children risk picking up diseases and parasites from the soil.Kenton Lee, an American man invented The Shoe That Grows. He explains, "It grows in three places: the front, on the side and on the back. It can last up to five years. The bottom is rubber like tire rubber. The top is just high-quality leather."Lee says he got the idea for the shoe while working as a volunteer in an orphanage in Kenya. "I just remember a little girl who wore a pair of small shoes. The shoes were so small that she had to cut open the front of her shoes to let her toes stick out. And I just remember thinking, wouldn't it be nice if there were a pair of shoes that could grow with her feet."However, Lee says it was not easy to turn his idea into a reality. Finally, in 2009 Lee founded a non-profit organization called Because International. In the office of Because International, Lee keeps a pair of his own shoes to help him remember his promise.A pair of shoes, he says, gives more than protection. It gives a child self-worth and more chances to succeed. "Because it's a small thing that really does make a big difference to keep them healthy and happy and having more chances to succeed."Kenton Lee adds that his goal is to help get The Shoe That Grows to as many children as he can around the world.28. The first paragraph may intends to tell us _____.A. many children suffer lacking shoesB. shoes are badly needed in many placesC. the necessity of inventing the new shoesD. we should make efforts to help the children29. What does the underlined word “ parasites” in paragraph 1 mean?A. Small living things that live on or inside something.B. The remains that left in the soil after crops got in.C. Some worms that protect soil.D. Small insects that are not easy to find.30. What’s the main idea of para graph 3?A. The children in orphanage live a hard life.B. What inspired Kenton Lee to invent the shoes.C. A girl with a pair of worn shoes.D. Kenton Lee wanted to help the children.31. From Kenton Lee, we can know _____.A. the new-invented shoes can grow automaticallyB. he had little difficulty in inventing the new type shoesC. he had a great dream to invent shoes from his childhoodD. shoes are important for children’s physical and mental growthDWe can achieve knowledge either actively or passively. We achieve it actively by direct experience, by testing and proving an idea, or by reasoning.We achieve knowledge passively by being told by someone else. Most of the learning that takes place in the classroom and the kind that happens when we watch TV or read newspapers or magazines is passive. Conditioned as we are to passive learning, it’s not surprising that we depend on it in our everyday communication with friends and co-workers.Unfortunately, passive learning has a serious problem. It makes us tend to accept what we are told even when it is little more than hearsay (传闻) and rumor.Did you ever play the game Rumor? It begins when one person writes down a message but doesn't show it to anyone. Then the person whispers it, word for word, to another person. That person, in turn, whispers it to still another, and so on, through all the people playing the game. The last person writes down the message word for word as he or she hears it. Then the two written statements are compared. Typically, the original message has changed.That’s what happens in daily life. The simple fact that people repeat a story in their own words changes the story. Then, too, most people listen imperfectly. And many enjoy adding their own creative touch to a story, trying to improve on it, stamping it with their own personal style. Yet those who hear it think they know.This process is also found among scholars and authors: A statement of opinion by one writer may be restated as fact by another, who may in turn be quoted by yet another; and this process may continue, unless it occurs to someone to question the facts on which the original writer based hisopinion or to challenge the interpretation he placed upon those facts.32. According to the passage, active learning may occur in _____.A. reading scientific journalsB. listening to the teacher in classC. doing a chemical experimentD. watching news programs on TV33.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. classroomB. newspapersC. active learningD. passive learning34. The game Rumor mentioned in Paragraph 2 indicates that _____ .A. playing games can make people more activeB. people tend to like telling lies when playing gamesC. a message may be changed when being passed onD. people may have problems with their sense of hearing35. What can be inferred from the text?A. Scholars and authors can’t be trusted.B. Passive learning may not be reliable.C. People like spreading rumors in daily life.D. Active learning is more important than passive learning.三、语法单项选择（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）从各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
