The Power of Dream
As Tony walked with his family along the river, he saw a man playing the saxophone (萨克斯管) by the river.The man was wearing a hat with a leather strap (皮带) around his neck. At the same time, he was dancing with the
beautiful music from his saxophone. There was a large crowd of people around him. When Tony’s family had already
walked on up the river, he still lost his thought in the dream of playing the saxophone one day.
Two weeks later, it was Tony’s birthday. When he opened his present from his parents, he was glad to find it was
a saxophone! He blew the mouth of the saxophone and tried to play it, but the saxophone wouldn’t make a sound.
Then his dad told him to read the instrument book to learn what to do. After about 15 minutes, he raised it slowly to
his lips (嘴唇) as his family watched. But still there was no sound. He blew and blew but he couldn’t get the saxophone
to work. He was almost crying when suddenly the saxophone made the most beautiful sound which made him think
of the music of the man by the river. He blew again, he moved his fingers on the saxophone and he made more sounds.
Some of them were loud and clear but many of them weren’t. He was happy because he was playing very interesting
sounds. But he wasn’t able to play music with his saxophone.
Then he began to take lessons. His teacher taught him how to play it. When he was learning, he always
remembered the man playing the saxophone by the river. His skills of playing musical instrument were gradually
improved and at last he could play music with his saxophone. Now Tony is in the TV studio (播放室) with his
saxophone strapped to his neck and his hat on his head. He is waiting to be called to the stage to play his first
saxophone solo (独奏曲) on TV.

CThe Rescue of Wildlife
Throughout the world, there are millions of people working to protect animals. Many of these people work as
volunteers in their spare time. WIRES is short for Wildlife Information and Rescue Service. It is an Australian
organization which was set up in 1985 to care for injured and orphaned (失去母兽的) native wildlife in the local
areas. WIRES has a network of hundreds of volunteers who rescue (救护) and care for native animals until they are
well enough to be set free into the wild. Volunteers look after rescued animals in their own homes and are trained in
the special needs of native wild animals.
When Australians find a native animal in trouble, they often call WIRES for help. WIRES may be asked to look
after a possum (鼠貂) that has been attacked by a cat, rescue a large lizard (蜥蜴) that has got its head caught in a
drink can, or care for a baby animal who has lost its mother. People call WIRES when they want to drive a dangerous
snake out of their garden or when they find a seabird that has swallowed (吞下) a fishing line or an owl (猫头鹰)
with a broken wing. Sometimes kangaroos jump onto the road in front of cars and are run over. Australians are
encouraged to check if there is a baby in the pouch(育儿袋) of dead kangaroos. WIRES volunteers find themselves
caring for many babies without parents in this way.
Each year, huge bush fires broke out in parts of Australia. These fires not only destroy human homes and put
people in danger, but they also destroy animal habitats (栖息地) and endanger the animals living in the bush. After a
big fire, WIRES and other organizations go into the district to pick up surviving animals. They are treated for burns,
shock, smoke inhalation (吸入) and other problems and then cared for until new location can be found for them.
WIRES is also involved in educating people in the importance of caring for wildlife and wildlife habitats.
Volunteers visit schools and other public places to talk about native animals. Sometimes they bring a bat or some
other interesting animals with them to show to people who may never have seen one up close before.
27. According to the passage, WIRES is making efforts to ________.
A. rescue endangered animals to set them free into the wild
B. save the wild animals and make them work on the farms
C. train the local animals to help them return to their homes
D. provide medical service for the injured animals in the zoo
28. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Australians always call the police to save the native animals in trouble.
B. The volunteers of WIRES often look after a baby animal with its mother.
C. WIRES often talks about caring for the native animals in the public places.
D. The new locations are found for the other organizations after the big fires.
29. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. Why volunteers join WIRES in Australia.
B. What WIRES usually does for the wildlife.
C. How wild animals can be trained at WIRES.
D. Where WIRES cares for the animals in danger.
D
You should time your meals, because a full stomach can be the reason why you can’t get to sleep at night. A
light snack at bedtime can promote (提升) sleep, but too much food can cause digestive (消化的) discomfort that
leads to wakefulness. Moreover, you’d better not drink coffee or tea in the evenings. Any food or drink that contains
caffeine can disturb (扰乱) sleep, especially if you are sensitive to caffeine.
People’s body is easily influenced by light and darkness. Doctors strongly suggest darkening the bedroom before
you go to sleep. So, start from turning down the lights in your bedroom. Turn off laptops, TVs and other sources of
light in our bedroom. These things send out blue light which can cause wakefulness at night and break up the body’s
natural inclination to sleep. Moreover, close your curtains (窗帘) and blinds at night, so you will be able to sleep
calmly.
It’s important to change your sleep cycle gradually in order to avoid stress and different sleep disorders. The
most suitable way is to do it in 15-minute amount of increase. If you have to wake up earlier, try to fall asleep 15
minutes earlier each evening. It may be difficult to fall asleep at once, take some relaxing activities like a bubble
bath. I think a few nights will be enough for you to feel comfortable with the new schedule (时间表). You should
stick to the same sleep and wake up schedule. Don’t forget about weekends! It is allowed to have an extra hour on
Saturday, but you are to be back on track for Sunday. It will help your body get used to this new routine.
If you have done all possible things to fall asleep and you are still tossing and turning, you should get up and
start doing things you have no time to do during the day. Don’t torture (折磨) yourself! Do something low-stress and
boring until you discover that you are tired. As a rule, 30 minutes of boring activities will be enough to bring you
back to bed. A good night’s sleep is an indispensable (不可或缺的) part of your life. It can refresh and restore your
body. I hope these tips will help you change your sleep schedule.
30. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Some boring activities can make it difficult to fall into sleep.B. The blue light in the bedroom is helpful to get to sleep easily.
C. The sleep schedule should be changed according to work time.
D. Eating a light snack before going to bed could be good for sleep.
31. What does the writer mainly tell us in the passage?
A. The advantages of carrying out the sleep schedule every day.
B. Some effective suggestions that can help to fall asleep in bed.
C. Several kinds of relaxing sports should be taken before sleep.
D. A few practical methods to save electrical energy in bedrooms.
.
32 The phrase “inclination to sleep” in Paragraph 2 probably means “________”.
A. state of being eager for sleep B. steps of forming a sleep cycle
C. process of falling into sleep D. conditions of sleeping in bed
33. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?
A. To discuss the relationship between sleep and health.
B. To introduce the bad effects caused by sleep disorders.
C. To advise on how to drive wakefulness away from sleep.
D. To introduce a suitable diet for a good night’s sleep.

本部分共5题，共20分。根据题目要求，完成相应任务。
四、阅读表达(34-36每小题2分，第37小题4分，共10分)
阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
After school, it’s very difficult for Vishal Singh to make a choice. He knows he should really go on with his
homework, but the Internet is so attractive that he can’t really pay much attention to his study.
“Students have always faced distractions(分心) and time-wasters,” writes Matt Richtel in the New York Times.
He says that computers are a real challenge for students. They need to pay more attention to their learning.
Students say that their parents are worried about the distractions and try to control their computer time. But it is
still difficult to manage the time of using computers.
Teachers at Woodside commonly think technology makes students difficult to concentrate(集中精力) in class,
but they are divided over whether computer and the Internet are the solutions.
In Richtel’s article, English teacher Marcia Blondel feels disappointed with her students. She isn’t able to get
them to read 30 pages of a book for homework. In order to solve this problem, she asks them to take part in a read-
aloud of the book in class.
But as some teachers express their worries over students’ digital diets, seeing it as a way, they are trying to use
technology in the classroom to draw the attention of these 21st-century students. The headmaster of Woodside HighSchool, David Reilly, asks teachers to build websites to communicate with students. The students are allowed to use
computers., smart phones or other new technology to interact(互动) with their teachers. It’s convenient for them to
search for some useful materials that they need before class. With the help of the new technology, the students have
more chances to share their ideas with each other and spend less time on video games. So, they pay more attention to
their study and they don’t show up with bleary-eyes(睡眼朦胧的) any more. Mr. Reilly also spends a large amount
of money building up a multimedia(多媒体) centre and introduce new courses like the digital audio recording(数码
录像) class.
“We try our best to take back their attention and make them concentrate on their study,” he says. “To a degree,
we’re using technology to do it.”
Some schools are looking to use the Internet to encourage students to study.
34. What’s the trouble with Vishal Singh?
