"Beating is a sign of affection, cursing (骂)is a sign of love." Many may not expect to hear the words of the old Chinese saying in these modern times—with parents wealthier and better educated than they have ever been-but experts say they still ring true. Today, it seems, Chinese parents are more likely to send their children to pre-college military academies in the United States in the hope that some tough love will pave the way tosuccess. "Good education doesn't mean letting your child enjoy privileges, especially our boys," said Song Wenming, an entrepreneur(企业家)in Jinhua, East China's Zhejiang province." They should be raised in tough conditions to know what to fight for in the future." In August, Song sent his 17-year-old son to Valley Forge Military Academy (VFMA) in Pennsylvania. And he is far from alone, even though it takes a lot of money - around $48,000 per year —to send a child to a strict military school. Statistics shows that an increasing number of Chinese students have been registering with such academies. A few years ago, there were no Chinese students at Valley Forge. Today, there are 28."All of the Chinese students at Valley Forge came from wealthy families, some of them were spoiled," said Jennifer Myers, director of marketing and communications at the school. Song's only son, Song Siyu, had a rocky start during his first six weeks at the school. The teenager said he went to the school voluntarily but did not expect it to be as difficult. Now, three months later, he has perfected the art of taking a bath in 35 seconds, finishing a meal without looking at his food, and making his bed with precision. He can even take criticism, no matter how unreasonable. "The training is hard but I know it is good for self-development of individuals," said Song Siyu.'The endless training and scolding are just ways to build up our character, they are not personal." But his enthusiasm is not universal. Ten of the 13 Chinese students who joined the academy this year have transferred to other schools. But for those who stick with it, there is a reward for all the hard work. 1.From the second paragraph, we can know the old Chinese saying _____. A.is out of date in modern times. B.is disagreed by rich parents. C.is still worth trusting D.is deeply believed by better educated parent. 2.The underlined sentence means that _____ A.Song sent his only son to military school, so he feels lonely. B.Song is the only one who sends his child t to military school. C.There are other people sending their children to military school besides Song. D.The fee of the military school is so high that only Song can afford it. 3.Song Siyu got some achievements in the military school except _____. A.taking a bath in a short time B.having his meal with his eyes closed C.taking unreasonable criticism D.improving his character 4.How many Chinese students are there at Valley Forge before this year? A.10 B.13 C.15 D.25 5.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? A. It's likely that more and more Chinese students will attend VFMA. B. Most Chinese parents approve of educating their children by beating and cursing nowadays. C. Song Siyu had no difficulty in adjusting to the life at VFMA. D. Most Chinese students support the way of education at VFMA.

Not long ago the movie 2012 came into screen.The people were threatened by those scenes of destroying flood, severe earthquake, terrifying hurricane and constructions representing human civilization being destroyed and even swallowed by disaster.Luckily, they are just the director' s imagination, but the present situation is not heading a positive direction, either. Take my own experience in Alaska as an example.Once I took a trip to the glacier.Along the way there stood signposts marking the snow lines of different years.They started from the foot of the mountain, but it was at the top that I finally saw melting glaciers(融化的冰川).My heart ached seeing the beautiful blue ice melting at every second. Sad but true, they are the effects of global warming and the result of our human impact.Furthermore, each year the rising sea level will kill 56 million people, and that' s about the population of the entire Italy.According to studies, if the temperature keeps on rising like this, by the year 2050, some islands and coastal cities including New York, Shanghai, Tokyo and Sydney will be drowned in water. Our fortune is in our own hands.It depends on us to shape our future, to reduce future human impact and find ways to form a peaceful relationship with our environment. Therefore, it's time for actions to be taken right now.Contribute a little to energy saving by using more efficient light bulbs and less hot water.Let recycle become our habit by thinking twice before throwing something away.Let us take public transportation as our first choice when going to a certain place.It might cost more time for now, but it' s to the benefit of a permanent future.Take care of every tree and grass around us by watering them or simply just avoid destroying them. In a word, small drops of water make a big ocean. The earth does not belong to us.On the contrary, we belong to the earth. Please bear in mind that the earth is our home.It is our responsibility to build a brighter and better future of our planet and prevent what happened in the movie 2012 from becoming reality. 1.Why does the author talk about the movie 2012 in the passage ? __________.

Men have always believed that they are smarter than women. Now, a study has found that while this is certainly true, men also have to deal with the fact that they are also more stupid than the fairer sex. In the study, scientists measured the IQ of 2500 brothers and sisters and they found an uneven number of men not only in the top two percent, but also in the bottom two percent. The study's participants were tested on science, maths, English and mechanical abilities. Though there were twice as many men as women in the smartest group, there were also twice as many men among the bottom. The aggregate(总数)scores of men and women were similar. One of the study's authors, psychology professor Timothy Bates, said that the phenomenon may be because men have always been expected to be high achievers and women have been restricted to spend more time taking care of their homes. "The female developmental program may be tilted more towards ensuring survival and the safety of the middle ground.," the Daily Mail quoted Professor Bates, of Edinburgh University, as saying. The research tallies with past results that men were more likely than women to receive first class University degrees or thirds and women secured the seconds. It has been said that men are more ready to take risk when it comes to academics. Women have always found to be steadier in their learning. A past study has shown that women are securing more firsts and seconds, while men are continuing to receive more thirds. The argument for the change is that the increase of coursework at the cost of exams favors women's steady approach. 1.The purpose of the passage is to tell us that ________. A.man are smarter then women B.man are more stupid the women C.a new fact about the IQ of men and women has been found D.men are more likely to receive first class university degrees 2.According to Timothy Bates, less women are in the smartest group because _________. A.they are born stupid B.they have to spend more time to tale care of their homes than men C.they don’t like to take risk D.they are not expected to be high achievers 3.The underlined word tallies with in the eighth paragraph means________. A.agree with B.deal with C.go against D.go with 4.It can be inferred from the passage that_________. A.Women are steadier in their learning. B.men are more ready to take risk in everything C.women are securing more firsts and seconds D.women are doing much better in academy 5.Which of the following questions has NOT been discussed in the passage? _________. A.Why are men smarter than women? B.Why are men more stupid than women? C.How does the result go along with the past research? D.How can we help the men in the bottom?

The young boy saw me, or rather, he saw the car and quickly ran up to me, eager to sell his bunches of bananas and bags of peanuts. Though he appeared to be about twelve, he seemed to have already known the bitterness of life. “Bananas 300 naira. Peanuts 200 naira.” He said in a low voice. I bargained him down to 200 total for the fruit and nuts. When he agreed, I handed him a 500 naira bill. He didn’t have change, so I told him not to worry. He said thanks and smiled a row of perfect teeth. When, two weeks later, I saw the boy again, I was more aware of my position in a society where it’s not that uncommon to see a little boy who should be in school standing on the corner selling fruit in the burning sun. My parents had raised me to be aware of the advantage we had been afforded and the responsibility it brought to us. I pulled over and rolled down my window. He had a bunch of bananas and a bag of peanuts ready. I waved them away. “What’s up?” I asked him. “I … I don’t have money to buy books for school.” I reached into my pocket and handed him two fresh 500 naira bills. “Will this help?” I asked. He looked around nervously before taking the money. One thousand naira was a lot of money to someone whose family probably made about 5,000 naira or less each year. “Thank you, sir,” he said.“Thank you very much!” When driving home, I wondered if my little friend actually used the money for schoolbooks. What if he’s a swindler? And then I wondered why I did it. Did I do it to make myself feel better? Was I using him? Later, I realized that I didn’t know his name or the least bit about him, nor did I think to ask. Over the next six months, I was busy working in a news agency in northern Nigeria. Sometime after I returned, I went out for a drive. When I was about to pull over, the boy suddenly appeared by my window with a big smile ready on his face. “Oh, gosh! Long time.” “Are you in school now?” I asked. He nodded. “That’s good,” I said. A silence fell as we looked at each other, and then I realized what he wanted. “Here,” I held out a 500 naira bill. “Take this.” He shook his head and stepped back as if hurt. “What’s wrong?” I asked. “It’s a gift.” He shook his head again and brought his hand from behind his back. His face shone with sweat. He dropped a bunch of bananas and a bag of peanuts in the front seat before he said, “I’ve been waiting to give these to you.” 1.It can be inferred from the first paragraph that _________. A.the boy was greedy B.the boy had suffered a lot C.the boy was in bad need of money D.the boy was good at bargaining 2.The second time the author met the boy, the boy _________. A.told him his purpose of selling fruit and nuts B.wanted to express his thanks C.asked him for money for his schoolbooks D.tried to take advantage of him 3.The author gave his money to the boy because _________. A.he wanted to make himself feel better B.he had learnt to help others since childhood C.he held a higher position in the society D.his parents asked him to do so 4.What does the underlined word “swindler” mean? A.troublemaker B.beggar C.thief D.cheat 5.Which of the following best describes the boy? A.Brave and polite. B.Kind and smart. C.Honest and thankful. D.Shy and nervous.
