There was once a rich boy who liked collecting special things. One day he bought an old mirror. When the mirror
arrived home, the boy went to see himself in it. His face looked very sad. He tried smiling and making funny faces,

but it was still his sad face.
The boy went to buy sweets. He came home happily to look in the mirror. To his surprise, his face was still sad-
looking. He bought all kinds of toys, but he still looked unhappy in that mirror. Sadly, the boy put the mirror in a
corner.
That same afternoon he went to play in the park, and he saw a little girl who was crying her heart out. He went
over to see what had happened. The little girl told him that she got lost with her parents.
Together they started looking for them. As the little girl wouldn’t stop crying, the boy spent his money buying
her sweets to cheer her up. Finally, after much walking, they found her parents.
The rich boy said goodbye and headed for home without playing and without money. At home, he saw a shining
light in the corner where he had left the mirror. Seeing this, he went over to the mirror, and realised that the bright
light was coming from his own body, with happiness. And he realised the mirror could only reflect (反映) the true
joy of its owner.
He felt very happy at helping that little girl. Since then, each morning when he looked in that mirror and couldn’t
see a special shining light, he already knew what he had to do to bring it back.
21. How did the boy’s face look in the mirror after he bought sweets?

All animals communicate. Crabs wave their claws to show that they’re healthy and ready to mate. Bees dance
in a special way to let other bees know where to find food. All of these animals have amazing communication ways,
but do they have language?
To answer that question, we can look at the following key points of language.

●Put different units into new order to show new ideas, like rearranging (重新排列) a set of letters to make
different words.
●Place these units in grammatical order.
●Use language to pass on a large number of messages.
●Talk about things that aren’t in front of us, such as past, future, or unreal events.
Does animal communication show any of these points? For crabs, the answer is no. They don’t put their units
together in creative ways. Those units also don’t have to be in grammatical order, and they only communicate their
life right now, like “I am healthy,” or “I am sick”.
But some animals actually show some of these points. Bees use different moves to show where the food is.
Warnings from some dogs show the size, shape and speed of the animals and people that may be detrimental to
them. Their warnings even pass the information like what people are wearing and whether he’s carrying a gun. Some
gorillas (大猩猩) have even learned body language. Sometimes they put their arms up to show their dominance (支
配地位).
While these communication ways may have some common points of language, none show all four. Even gorillas’
amazing abilities are still not as good as the language skills of most three-year-old humans. And animals usually talk
about few things. Bees talk about food and crabs talk about themselves.
As animal communication can’t show all the key points of language, scientists believe that there is no real
language among animals.
24. What do we know about animal communication from the passage?
A. Crabs talk about different kinds of things in life.
B. Dogs’ warnings show what a person wears and says.
C. Gorillas put their arms up to show their rule over others.
D. Bees’ special dances and songs can tell the places of food.
25. The word “detrimental” in Paragraph 8 probably means “_________”.
A. patient B. harmful C. unusual D. unexplained
26. What is the best title of this passage?
A. Do Animals Have Language? B. Why Do Animals Talk Differently?
C. Four Key Points in Language D. Ways of Animal Communication
D
People always work together to get shared goals, while researchers are busy working out how to make the
teamwork work well. Now, two American researchers, Suzanne Bell and Eduardo Salas, have studied the “the
Science of Teamwork”.
微信：cs5311742016 主营各地名校期中期末真题卷及小初高全套教材教案讲义知识点总结微信：cs5311742016 主营各地名校期中期末真题卷及小初高全套教材教案讲义知识点总结
There are some important findings in their study. “The more you understand the science behind the teamwork,
the better your teams will be,” says Bell, a university teacher.
A team’s success often comes from its composition (组成) as Bell describes in her findings. Surface-level
factors (表层因素) of team members—such as age, nationality and cultural backgrounds can be important to the
team’s result.
However, the “deep-level” factors have a bigger influence (影响) on reaching the goal, such as the abilities,
ideas, and feelings of the members. For example, if the goal is to make a new instrument, it’s a good idea to build a
team with different thinkers who bring a lot of knowledge, ideas and abilities to the project. But if a team’s goal is
to finish the work quickly, different ideas might be less important. If a team member thinks the project will not have
a good result, his feelings could badly influence the whole group. That’s because feelings can spread in a team.
Salas also describes useful ways for improving teamwork in their study. “Team building is the best way to
train teams,” Salas says. But the results of such programs are not the same.
If you send a group of leaders into the mountains for two days, they might have fun and learn from each other
—but it doesn’t mean they’ll magically develop new teamwork skills. “Team training works when we make them
experience real teamwork, such as cleaning up a park or writing a report on a project.” Salas says.
Although there is still more work to do to understand teamwork, this study will encourage people to improve
their teams in new ways by using science.
27. From the passage, Suzanne Bell probably agrees that ________.
A. team members must understand the science of teamwork
B. building teams with right members can improve teamwork
C. leaders’ teamwork skills greatly influence the team’s goals
D. surface-level factors can decide if the team gets a good result
28. Which is very important for a team when its goal is to make a new thing?
.
A Finishing the work very quickly. B. Asking more people to join the team.
C. Having different knowledge and abilities. D. Spreading their feelings to the whole group.
29. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Teamwork helps members learn from each other.
B. Cleaning up a park is a useful way to train teamwork.
C. Researchers now fully understand how teams work together.
D. Abilities of team members are the key to the team’s success.
30. Why does the writer write this passage?
A. To encourage teams to reach their goals.

五、阅读表达（第31-33题每题2分，第34题4分，共10分）
阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题 。
Fruit Science Summer Camp
It is a sunny day in Seattle. Some children are sitting under a tree and talking about soil (土壤). They are 9 to
12 years old and they are very excited about it.
They have a question: What kind of soil do plants need to grow well?
“RIIIIICH!” one girl says, very loudly.
They reach an agreement on what rich soil looks like and feels like—brown, soft and wet.
This is Fruit Science Summer Camp made by the Seattle City Park. Belinda Chin works for the Seattle City Park
and helps people get good food. She says they are doing this camp in the city because some people here don’t have
enough land to grow food or don’t know how to use it.
Sometimes at camp, they go to the kitchen in the building to make food. In the kitchen, Jones and McDowell
help children make ice cream with fruit. They mix (混合) fruit and milk together and put them in small bags. Then
they put the bags inside bigger bags with ice and salt. Each kid shakes their bag until it becomes ice cream. The
children feel a sense of happiness and excitement. Jones says they pick recipes (食谱) that are easy and safe, and the
children also can make them at home.
When they finish their ice cream, McDowell asks them what they have to do next.
“Clean up!” they all say together. Belinda Chin thinks that Fruit Science Summer Camp is not just about making
food and eating it, it’s also about teaching children important life skills like cooking, cleaning, and teamwork.
Fruit Science Summer Camp is really working. In the future, there will be more camps like this for more
children.
31. What is rich soil like?
