Mary Armstrong was a pretty little girl, but she did not pay attention to her things. She usually left her books
and playthings everywhere, and it gave her mom much trouble in picking them up and putting them in the proper
places. Some of her books and toys became spoiled(损坏). Her mom had often told Mary the bad result of being so
careless. The growing habit of carelessness would make her unhappy, and sometimes annoy her friends. Even
worse, it would be of great harm to her all her life. But Mary didn’t listen to her mom. So they argued a lot.
One day, Mary made a beautiful toy, a gift for her best friend’s birthday. When her mom asked her to go out
into their yard to play, Mary put the toy in her room casually(不经意地). She ran around and played happily there.
An hour later, it was time to go to her friend’s birthday party. Mary went back to get the toy. But she couldn’t find itanywhere.
Finally, she found the toy broken in the corner. At once she realized that Dash, her pet dog had done this, and
she was very angry. Carrying the broken toy to her mom, she couldn’t help crying.
Mrs. Armstrong asked Mary if she had left the toy in the place where Dash could easily get it, and Mary
answered, “Yes, mom.”
,
“Then you should not be angry Mary, because the dog does not know it is wrong to play with your toy. I
hope this will be a lesson to you hereafter, to put your things away when you finish.”
“I will try,” said Mary. And her mom promised to repair the toy as well as she could.
24. Why did Mary cry when carrying the gift to her mom?
A. Because her gift was broken. B. Because Dash broke her book.
C. Because Dash annoyed her friends. D. Because Mrs. Armstrong was mad at her.
25. Which is the right order of the following things?

②Mary put the toy in her room.
③Mary found the toy in the corner.
④Mom would repair the toy for Mary.
A. ①③②④ B. ①③④② C. ②①④③ D. ②①③④
26. What does the passage mainly tell us?
A. Listen to our parents, and they’ll repair our things.
B. Be kind to our pets, and they won’t break our things.
C. Get on well with our friends, and we’ll get birthday gifts.

When watching sports events, we often notice athletes wearing earphones on while preparing in the locker
room or entering the stadium. They keep their eyes shut, and gently nod along the beats. It seems the music is
giving them power and cheering them up for the competition. We sometimes do the same. You might have a list of
favorite songs for your morning exercises. But is there any science behind such practices?
According to a recent research, it turns out there is. Music actually does make us feel powerful, but not all
songs have the same effect.
The research was led by Dennis Hsu of the Kellogg School of Management at Northwester University in the
US. His team had people listen to 31 songs of different types. The listeners felt powerful after listening to some
songs, such as Queen’s We Will Rock You and 2 Unlimited’s Get Ready for This.
Researchers also found that high-power music made people want to take control in social events and comefirst in competition. That matters a lot in sports. “It’s commonly said that sports are 90 percent mental and only 10
percent physical,” The Huffington Post reported.
Great athletes know this idea well. NBA player Kobe Bryant, for example, often puts on big headphones and
even falls into deep thought to boost(提升) his game and reduce his anxiety.
As for the reason for music’s magical power, Hsu’s team came up with one possible explanation: when people
hear music that expresses a sense of power, they mimic(模拟) these feelings in their mind.
When choosing music, we also need to look at the type of music, according to researchers.
In previous research by the Music in Exercise and Sports Group at Brunei University in London, they found
that pop was perfect for slower, more repetitive-type tasks. If you’re warming up or cooling down after exercises,
pop songs are the correct choice.
27. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To introduce favorite songs for morning exercises.
B. To lead in the topic that music matters in sports.
C. To give an example of athletes’ daily life.
D. To explain how to choose music.
28. According to the passage, Dennis Hsu probably agrees that ________.
A. listening to music always makes athletes relaxed
B. powerful music can make people produce similar feelings in their mind
C. the result of a game is mainly affected by the physical condition of the players
D. most athletes still don’t know the effects of high-power music on their performance
29. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Pop music is a reasonable choice for high-intensity workouts.
B. Rock music helps people keep their rhythms when exercising.
C. People are advised to listen to pop music before and after exercise.
D. People should dance to music while doing strength and weight training.
I ask every student I interview for admission (获准入学) to my college the same question, “What do you look
forward to the most in college?” I was surprised and pleased recently when a student replied, “I look forward to the
possibility of failure.” This is not how most students answer the question when sitting before the person who can
make decisions about their academic (学术) futures, but this young man took a risk. “My parents have never let me
fail,” he said. “When I want to take a risk at something, they remind me it’s not safe. They think taking a hard
course or trying a challenging activity will destroy my college admission.”
This is not an uncommon story. Kids all over the world are under great pressure to be perfect. So it’s hard to findimperfection in a college application (申请). Students try their best to hide negative things and only tell us
impressive things. But perfection doesn’t exist (存在), and we don’t expect to see it. In fact, admission officers are
likely to be skeptical of students who present themselves as persons without weaknesses.
We want to find out who students really are outside of their medals and test scores. We get excited when we read an
application that seems real. If their viewpoints are about lessons learned or challenges overcome, these applicants
are likely to jump to the top. We believe a mistake in high school should not define (定义) the rest of your life, but
how you react could shape you forever.
Teenagers will never be perfect. They do silly things, mess up and fall down. The ability to bounce (反弹) back is a
basic life skill students have to learn on their own. The lessons of failure can’t be taught in a classroom; they are
experienced and reflected upon. During my interviews, another student told me, “I’m ashamed that I failed my
math class, but I took it again and got a B-plus.” “From the experience I learned to let go of shame,” he said. “I
realized that I can’t let a grade define my success.”
I smiled. This kid will do well and be successful in my college. He has the skills to face challenges. Failure is about
growth, learning, overcoming, and moving on. Let’s allow young people to fail. Not only will they learn something,
it might even get them into college.
30. The writer tells the story of the student in Paragraph 1 to show that ________.
A. many kids are usually told to avoid taking risks
B. some students like to behave in an unusual way
C. some students feel uncertain about their college life
D. many kids and their parents often have different opinions
31. What does the phrase “be skeptical of” probably mean?
A. Be interested in. B. Be ashamed of.
C. Be doubtful about. D. Be pleased with.
32. The writer probably agrees that ________.
A. teachers should be responsible for helping kids deal with failures
B. kids can grow and learn lessons by facing challenges bravely
C. parents should try to keep their kids from making mistakes
33. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Want to Succeed? Work Hard
B. Want to Be Perfect? Do Your Best
C. Want to Get Into College? Learn to Fail

阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
Most cars get their energy from petrol (汽油). But some cars use electricity. They get their power from large
batteries (电池). There are also some cars that have both an electric motor and a petrol motor. They are called
hybrid cars.
Most people think of electric cars as a new invention, but they have been around for a long time. In the late 19th
and early 20th centuries electric cars were popular because the technology for petrol engines was not highly
developed. But when the petrol engines became easier to make and more powerful，they became more popular.
Interest in electric cars was high in the 1970s and 1980s because oil became very expensive. Recently, electric cars
have again become popular because people want cars that pollute less.
Electric cars are better than petrol cars in several ways. The biggest benefit is that they can reduce pollution. In
areas with a high percentage of electric cars, there is less pollution. But it is important to understand that electric
cars still cause pollution. The electricity to power electric cars has to come from a power station. Unless these
power stations run on solar or wind energy, they are most likely burning fossil fuels (化石燃料). The second
benefit of electric cars is a reduction in the dependence on foreign oil. Since electric cars can run on electricity from
coal or nuclear power (核能) stations, there is less of a need to import oil.
There are some problems with electric cars as well. One disadvantage is that electric cars are more expensive than
petrol cars. This is mostly because of the high cost of the batteries. They need to be charged in special places. Right
now, there aren’t enough places where people can charge the batteries. Another problem is that electric cars cannot
travel as far as petrol cars. Some people are afraid that the battery will run out of electricity before they reach their
destination.
Despite these problems, many people, including car industry experts, believe that the percentage of electric cars
will increase in the future.
34. What do electric cars get their power from?
_____________________________________________________
35. When were electric cars first popular?
