High school students are some of the busiest people in the world. To get the most from all you do, you must be in control of your time. Your success in high school depends on your use of time. Here are some important things to remember.

Begin each term by filling in a master plan. First fill in things you must do (classes, work, practice, etc. that you can’t change.) Then find the most effective use for these times.

Set a regular time and place for study. This will save your time in the long run. If you have a study hall in your school, use it!

Use daylight hours to study whenever possible. For most people for every hour of study done in daylight hours, it will take them one and a half hours to do the same task at night.

Take breaks. Don’t plan marathon study time. Have a short rest before you study again.

By using flash cards or summary sheets, you can use odd （零散的）times to study while you’re waiting for class to start or for a friend to pick you up.

If possible, plan study time with a partner. Choose your partner wisely however. Make sure you study, not socialize,yourself.

Do the most difficult tasks when you are active. (Take math for example, when you’re energetic, it will become easier to solve; when you’re tired, it will be impossible!) Make a daily checklist. Do the most important tasks first.

21. According to the passage, your success in high school mainly lies in _______.

A. making full use of your time

B. your hard work

C. your brain power

D. how well you play the game

22. We should use daylight hours to study whenever possible because _______.

A. school study halls are open to students only in the daytime

B. most people can spare more time to study in the daytime

C. it’s more difficult to study effectively at night

D. we have more important things to do than study at night

23. On how to use our time, we should follow the following suggestions EXCEPT _______.

A. working out a complete plan for the whole term

B. keeping a good balance between study and rest

C. putting the most important tasks first

D. trying to study alone instead of working with others

Emily and Zach are confused!（困惑的） Their parents told them they could choose between Massachusetts and Arizona for their vacation this summer.

Emily has always wanted to visit Boston, the capital of Massachusetts. Zach and she both agree that walking along the Freedom Trail would enable them to see Boston’s most famous places of historic interest, like the site of the school Ben Franklin attended and the Old State House. If Emily and Zach go to Massachusetts, they could spend a few days at the beaches on Cape Cod. Emily loves body boarding, and Zach is great at body surfing. They both enjoy building sandcastles with their mom and dad.

Zach finds learning about Native Americans wonderful and has always wanted to travel along the Apache Trail in Arizona. This mountain highway passes Native American ruins in Tonto National Forest. Emily is not as interested in traveling along this trail as Zach, but they both would like to visit Phoenix, the capital, and then travel to Grand Canyon National Park and Meteor Crater(陨石坑).Zach learned in science class that Meteor Crater is a hole over 4,000 feet wide and 520 feet deep that was created when a huge object from space fell to Earth. The object went so deep that it has never been found. Zach would really like to try to discover it. But Emily thinks if experienced scientists and researchers cannot find it, Zach might as well not even bother（费工夫）to try.

The only drawback for Zach and Emily if they choose Arizona would be the heat. It is very hot and dry in this southwestern state. Massachusetts, on the other hand, is in northeastern United States. Here Zach and Emily and their parents could enjoy mild(温和

的)temperatures. Their parents love hot weather, but Zach and Emily do not really like to sweat.

How will they ever decide to which state they should travel? If only they could take two trips!

24. Emily and Zach will spend their summer vacation .

C. beaches

D. history

26. The underlined word “drawback” in Paragraph 4 means.

A. value

B. reason

C. interest

D. disadvantage

27. What would be the best title for the text?

B. An interesting plan

C. An unforgettable trip

D. A personal experience

C

Elizabeth Bishop, who was famous for the poetry A Prodigal, Filling Station , Sandpiper, Manuelzinho and so on, was an influential（有影响的） American poet of the 20th century. Her poetry often shows things that concerned her throughout her life, such as her search for a sense of home. Her troubled childhood and feelings of loneliness from this time affected her character and poetry.

Bishop's painful childhood is apparent（显面易见的） in some of her poems. Her father died when she was eight months old and her mother was mad when she was five. Bishop was raised firstly by her mother's parents and then by her father's parents. This experience left her confused about belonging. She had no home and this was shown in her poetry. In “A Prodigal”, when the character in the poem makes up his mind to go home, there is a sense of pessimism for Bishop who has no home. The lack of a sense of home has contributed to her depression（消沉） all her life.

Bishop attempts（企图） to make small, everyday experiences extraordinary in her poems such as “Filling Station” .In “Filling Station“, Bishop describes the beautyof a family filling station. Although it is "dirty" there is order in it. Simple family life is

celebrated in it. She recognizes the value of home and beauty in everyday life, but she is only an observer of these. Distance remains between her and the family at the filling station.

Bishop's struggle to locate herself in the world is seen no more clearly than in “sandpiper”. It deals with searching for something in a confusing world. She uses the metaphor（暗喻） of the bird which is "looking for something". The "something" isn't specific （特殊的）. It seems as if the bird doesn't know what he wants; the only certain thing is that he is searching.

Bishop's poems are personal on a more subtle （巧妙的）level, especially when her childhood, travels, etc, are taken into consideration. It is believed that Bishop is a complex（复杂的）poet who uses her poetry to find this feeling of belonging.

28. What do we know about Elizabeth Bishop's childhood？

A. She was born poor.

B. She lived an unhappy life.

C. Her grandparents treated her badly.

D. Her parents didn't love her.

29 .Which of Bishop's poems shows her love for simple family life？

A. “Sandpiper.”

B. “Manuelzinho”

C. “Filling Station”

D. “A Prodigal”

30. When reading Bishop's poems, people can find her search for_______

A. the true nature of human being

B. a happy family life

C. parental love

D. the feeling of belonging

31. Which of the following words can best describe Bishop？

A. Gifted but pessimistic.

B. Clever and strong.

C. Unfortunate but kind.

D. Creative and determined

D

Let's face it.No one drinks die t（饮食）soda（苏打） for the taste.People drink diet soda in the hope that it will help them lose weight or at least keep them from gaining it.Yet it seems to have exactly the opposite effect, according to a new study.

Researchers from the University of Texas said those who drank two or more diet

sodas a day had waist（腰） size increases that were six times greater than those of people who didn't drink diet soda."What we saw was that the more diet sodas a person drank, the more weight they were likely to gain," said Sharon Fowler.

The study was based on data from 474 participants in a large, ongoing research project, where the participants were followed for nearly l0 years.

While the findings are surprising, they also offer some explanations.

Nutrition（营养） expert, Melanie Rogers, who works with overweight patients in New York, has found that when patients are switched（改变） from regular to diet soda, they don't lose weight at all."We weren't seeing weight loss necessarily, and that was confusing to us," said Rogers.

So why would diet soda cause weight gain? No one knows for sure yet, but it could be that people think they can eat more if they drink diet soda, and so over-compensate (补偿)for the missing calories(卡路里热量单位).

A related study found some sweeteners (甜味剂) raised blood sugar levels in some mice.” Data from this and other potential studies suggest that the promotion of diet sodas and artificial（人造的） sweeteners may be risky,” said study researcher Helen P.Hazuda, professor at the University of Texas's school of medicine. Theymay be free of calories, but not of consequences.

32. People drink diet soda to _____.

A. stay in fashion

B. enjoy its

taste

C. gain more energy

D. achieve weight loss

33. The new study suggests that drinking diet soda _____.

A. helps people to be healthier

B. causes people to become heavier

C. offers people more calories

D. makes people much thinner

34. We can learn from the passage that _____.

A. diet soda drinkers tend to eat more food

B. regular soda makes people lose more weight

C. most blood diseases come from diet soda

D. diet soda does help reduce calories

35. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?.

A. Diet soda is good for your health

B. Diet soda may cause overweight

C. Sweeteners can raise blood sugar

levels

D. A research about nutrition

第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）

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。

When we are little, we know nothing about the rights and responsibilities of adulthood. 36 Therefore, if we like a certain toy or if we want to eat a certain type of chocolate, we think tha t our parents will have to buy that for us. We don’t care that they possibly have not enough money for that. If they don’t carry out our wish, we’ll begin to cry. 37 Whenever we begin to cry, we’ll get what we want.

Still, little by little, we realize that our parents can’t offer us all that we want for certain reasons. We then also understand that parents have their rights. They have the right to scold us when we do something wrong or when they find out that we have lied to them. 38 They choose our clothes, the food we eat, the school we will study at, the hours when we should go out to play and the time we have to return home.

39 They are the ones to be blamed later if we don’t receive proper education. That’s why when we beat a classmate at th e kindergarten, parents are the ones to apologize for our deeds in front of the teacher and the classmate’s parents. And when we get ill, they are responsible for not taking good care of us and for dressing us inadequately（不充分的）.

The moment we become teenagers, we notice that we should be responsible for our behaviors in society. Now we have the right to be independent. 40 It is supposed that we are mature（成熟的） enough to solve our problems and to make people around trust us. For some of us, this is a difficult test to pass, but it is the best method to see if we are capable（有能力的） of taking our place in society.

A. However, it’s also time for us to give explanations when we do something wrong.

B. But at the same time they are responsible for many things that happen to us.

C. Moreover, they have the right to make choices for us when we are little.

D. We should believe we can do them by ourselves.

E. This is a child’s important weapon to threaten his/her parents.

F. As a matter of fact, parents have a lot of things to be concerned about.

G. We think our parents should offer us all we need.
