A great woman once said, "Women must try to do things as men have tried. When they fail, their failure must be a challenge to others." These are the words of US pilot Amelia Earhart (1897-1937), a pioneer in aviation(航空领域), who was the first woman to fly across the Atlantic Ocean. Earhart was born in 1897. When she was young, she was very interested in stories about women who were successful in male-dominated(男性为主的)jobs, such as engineering and law. But in 1920, Earhart's life changed after her first experience of being a plane passenger. As soon as the plane left the ground, Earhart knew that she loved flying and was determined(坚定的)to be a pilot. So she found herself a teacher and started to learn how to fly for herself. To pay for the lessons and buy a plane of her own, she took all sorts of jobs. In 1932, Earhart flew alone across the Atlantic, becoming the first woman ever to do so. She also designed a flying suit for women and went on to design other clothes for women who led active lives. When she was nearly 40, Earhart was ready for a final challenge-to be the first woman to fly around the world. Her first attempt was unsuccessful but she tried again in 1937, with her navigator(领航员)Fred Noonan. But one month later, they disappeared without a trace(踪迹)in bad weather in mid-flight. Her death remained a mystery until recently. A study published in March conducted by Richard Jantz from the University of Tennessee, US, announced that bones found in 1940 on a faraway Pacific island belonged to Earhart. Even though it's still not clear how she ended up on the island, we're one step closer to finding the answer. 1.When did Earhart first fly across the Atlantic Ocean alone? A.In 1920. B.In 1932. C.In 1937. D.In 1940. 2.What started Earhart's interest in flying? A.Her parent's influence. B.Her teachers' encouragement. C.Her first experience as a passenger. D.Her childhood love for engineering. 3.Which of the following words best describes Earhart? A.Open-minded and patient. B.Creative and helpful. C.Talented and unsocial. D.Pioneering and determined. 4.What's the article mainly about? A.The inspiring life story of Earhart. B.Some possible causes of Earhart's death. C.The discovery of Earhart's bones. D.What made Earhart a great pilot.

I passed one of my US workmates and gave her a friendly greeting. Her reply was anything but friendly. "What?" "Er… you all right?" I tried again. She looked at me, showing no understanding. Then suddenly the cloud seemed to lift from her mind. "Oh," she said. "You mean, 'How am I doing? ' I thought you meant I had something on my face." As a British person coming to Beijing, I knew there would be cultural and language barriers (障碍)between Chinese people and myself. What I wasn't expecting were the cultural and language barriers between other English-speaking foreigners and myself. Before the 2012 London Olympic Games, the Daily Mail newspaper published a guide to British English for Americans. Some of their examples were: "Those are 'chips'(炸薯条)that go with your burger, instead of fries. You'd like some potato chips? Those are 'crisps'." And, "The best way to travel around the city during the Olympics will be by the 'underground'('tube' in British English)." Any conversation I have with an American is proof(证明)of why a guide like this is necessary. British people usually know the American versions of words from TV or films (sorry-movies), but Americans never seem to have enough knowledge about British English. The trouble is, it's not just Americans. When I speak English to non-English speakers, I never know whether they have learned British or American English. When they say "chips", for example, do they mean "French fries" or "potato chips"? I can't help thinking back to the Daily Mail article, "When you talk about 'pants'…in Britain, that means underwear(内裤)." "Trousers" is the more appropriate(恰当的)word. However, even though British English may have come first, around the world, the American way of spelling is getting more popular. Last month a survey released by US social media platform Steemit showed that English publications, now largely use the American spelling, exchanging words like "centre" for "center". So it comes as no surprise that everyone I know just says "pants". 1.Why does the writer mention her conversation with an American workmate at the beginning? A.To show how she gets along with American workmates in the office. B.To explain how to clear up misunderstandings between workmates. C.To introduce the differences between British and American English. D.To describe what her life looked like after she came to Beijing. 2.The underlined sentence "the cloud seemed to lift from her mind" in Paragraph 4 means"________". A.she became confident of herself B.she came to understand the situation C.she felt excited for what she heard D.she was not sure what to do next 3.According to the passage, which of the following is WRONG? A."Chips" in the UK is "fries" in the US. B."Centre" in the UK is "center" in the US. C."Trousers" in Britain is "pants" in America. D."Are you all right? " means different things in Britain and America. 4.Which of the following would the writer probably agree with? A.British people don't care much about American English. B.Culture and language differences don't influence understanding. C.Non-English speakers can't tell British English from American English. D.It's necessary to know the differences between American and British English.

If you give money to a stranger on the street, does that make you a nice person? Do you always offer to help someone struggling with heavy bags? Do you often donate blood? You may consider yourself to be a nice person, but you're probably not as nice as you think. This is a new study carried out by professors from the University of London. The study looked into whether there is a connection between nice people and their levels of health, wealth and happiness. During the study, participants(参与者)were given a list of "nice" activities and asked which ones they often do. The result was surprising-98 percent of us consider ourselves to be among the nicest 50 percent of the population. "In most cases, people think of themselves as nice, but it is not as simple as that," study leader Jonathan Freeman told. The most common practices were giving directions to strangers, holding doors open and giving up seats on public transport. However, 3/4 said that they rarely helped people carry heavy shopping bags, and only 1/6 often gave money to strangers. Just 1/4 donated blood often or helped someone cross the road. Though our thoughts of ourselves didn't match up with scientific research, this nicer than-others thought, according to Freeman, may actually do good to us. In the study led by Freeman, those who thought themselves as "nice" were likely(可能的)to be richer, healthier and happier. "Nice" people are almost three times more satisfied with their lives and make more money compared to the "not very nice" participants. "Our study shows that participants who report that they are 'nice' scored higher on emotional intelligence(情商), and it can help them deal better with stress and troubles in their lives," Freeman told The Independent. 1.What does the article mainly talk about? A."Not very nice people" must be unhappier. B.Nice people must be richer and happier. C.Nice people may be happier than the "not very nice". D.The "not very nice" may be wealthier than nice people. 2.What's the main idea for Paragraphs 3, 4 and 5? A.People are probably as nice as they think. B.A new study about nice activities was carried out. C.Most people consider themselves to be nicer than others. D.People's thoughts of themselves didn't match up with scientific research. 3.According to the study, which of the following is WRONG with the participants? A.Most of them always thought of themselves nice. B.Only one in seven often gave money to strangers. C.They sometimes offer to help someone struggling with heavy bags. D.Just a quarter donated blood often or helped someone cross the road. 4.What does the underlined word "it" in the last paragraph refer to(指的是)? A.The study. B.The stress. C.Being nicer to others. D.Having higher emotional intelligence.

阅读下列短文,根据短文中的信息完成文后表格,写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。(每空一词) Today’s smart-phones can do almost anything, but like all tools, they should be used wisely. Here are some problematic habits that smart-phone should avoid. Imagine you’re rushing through a crowded subway station, late for an appointment. Suddenly someone is blocking your way, walking very slowly, fiddling(用手拨弄)with their smart-phone. You probably feel annoyed, but do you ever do the same thing? For your own safety, put the phone away while walking. When you see someone who looks different, you may want to take a picture or a video. But recording people’s daily lives can be rude and hurtful. If you want a picture, ask for permission. Your friends may not mind you taking pictures of them. But ask before posting anything embarrassing online. Showing their mistakes for the world to see is sure to hurt your friendship. And once pictures are posted, they’re impossible to remove. Smart-phone are great tools for communication. It’s common to see people sitting together, not speaking but looking quietly at their smart-phones. Real friendships require face-to-face interaction(互动). Facial expressions and body language express far more than words. As you smart-phone is always available, you always have something to do. But that may not be a good thing. Some say that unused time is necessary for creative thinking. So don’t spend every spare moment with your phone. Instead, see what great ideas you can think up.
