BPushing Yourself Further
My school went on a camp in the north of the city last Friday. We did simple things like cooking food in the
bush(灌木) and sleeping in tents(帐篷). Among all of them, I enjoyed the two exciting activities most.
One of the activities was called Flying Fox. When you are taking part in the activity, you are connected to a
wire(金属线) that begins from the top of a mountain to the ground. Then you jump off the mountain. There are
very strong ropes so you are very safe.
Before I went on the Flying Fox, I was a bit afraid. My classmates kept on encouraging me. So I closed my
eyes and jumped. I felt my whole body was flying! It was so wonderful!
Some students in my class were also afraid of doing it at first. We just cheered them up and encouraged them.
In the end, everyone in my class enjoyed it.
The other activity was called High Ropes. You need to walk on a wire in midair. To make yourself safe, you
should hold the ropes hanging in the tree. Every time you walk on and take hold of the next rope, the space between
the ropes becomes longer.
I once missed a rope and fell from the wire. My heart was in my mouth! Thanks to the protection
equipment(设备), I didn’t fall to the ground. I pulled myself up and kept going. When I arrived at the final place, I
felt so pleased. I thought it was like life: you just have to keep going no matter what happens. This camp was really
enjoyable. I hope I can go to more camps in the future.
24. What did the writer enjoy most in the camp?
A. Sleeping in the tents. B. Playing with classmates.
C. Cooking food in the bush. D. Taking part in exciting activities.
25. What happened after the writer missed a rope in High Ropes?
A. She pulled herself up. B. She was seriously hurt.
C. She fell to the ground. D. She was hanging midair.26. The writer probably agrees that ________.
A. taking part in camp activities can make us proud
B. students always can’t help doing something dangerous
.
C we should keep going when facing problems or difficulties
D. it’s impossible to form close friendships when people are in need
C
When you are online, you can be anyone or anything. You can create a picture of a person or an animal that
represents yourself on a computer screen. These digital identities(身份) are a key part of how people use the
Internet to communicate and express themselves. People call them avatars.
The first simple 2D avatars appeared in role-playing computer games in the 1980s. Yet, very few people knew
that future avatars would have such wide kinds of forms and uses. Since the late 1990s, people have started using
them in online communication like WeChat and QQ.
When people started creating their own avatars, they found that they were going to have the chance to create
new identities that did not look or act like their real selves at all. They could dress their avatars in strange clothes,
or they could try being someone of the other sex, and call themselves “Tony” but not “Betty”! When Internet users
found that not only their friends, but also many other people would see their avatars, they started having more than
one avatar: a good-looking one for work; a friendly one for meeting people; and a silly one for having fun. Avatars
let you express yourself and they give you lots of space for creativity.
Of course, the avatar you choose shows your personality. If your QQ avatar is a picture of a cute cat, your
message is “I like relaxing and having fun”. Famous cartoon characters say “I am a really funny person”. Besides,
most people create avatars that have similarities(相似点) to themselves and that look more or less like them and act
like them.
Nowadays, although avatars are everywhere, the use of avatars has also caused a few different opinions. Some
的
users worry that they are spending so much time in virtual(虚拟 ) worlds that they are becoming afraid of
meeting people in the real world. The use of several avatars can also be a risk, as people can use avatars to do
something bad to others online. However, other users see avatars in a more positive(积极的) way. They look
forward to a time when their avatar will act like a real person and travel around bigger, more exciting virtual
worlds.
27. The word “avatars” in Paragraph 1 probably means “_________”.
A. some computer games in the 1980s B. your digital identities on the Internet
C. your own image and personality in real life D. online communication like QQ and WeChat28. According to the passage, people have used avatars to ________.
A. travel around the world B. show their own personality
C. make friends in the real world D. communicate everywhere all the time
29. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. The suggestions on using avatars. B. The possible future of avatars.
C. Some problems caused by avatars. D. Different opinions about avatars.
D
Think of a small thing—a piece of chalk, for example. Are you remembering its name, its shape, or its color?
Are you remembering the sound it makes when the teacher writes on the blackboard?
Scientists say that memory (记忆) includes different parts of the brain, such as language and the ability of
sense. They believe that you begin to create a memory when you notice something with your senses. Then, the
sense system sends messages to different brain cells (细胞), which join together to form connections. A new
connection goes into your short-term memory. It stays there for about 30 seconds, and then it is either lost or stored
in your long-term memory.
Having a good memory means making lots of connections and keeping them in your long-term memory. To do
this, you need to put your brain in excellent condition. Eat plenty of brain food such as fish oil, fruit and vegetables.
Laughter also makes your brain more active. Also, don’t forget to exercise. So do some sports or just move around
a lot in the house. Finally, get plenty of sleep. This will make your memories grow stronger. When you want to
remember new information, you must pay special attention. Use your senses—sight, smell, hearing and touch—and
keep repeating (重复) the information. In order to do well in your tests this year, you need to turn off the TV,
silence your mobile, and go over your work regularly (有规律地). In this way, you make sure to use your full
senses on your test only. To remember something special, it is a good idea to use your imagination to create visual
(视觉的) connections. For example, you need to take a pencil, an eraser and your ID card to your next test. People
prefer to picture the three things into an animal, imagining the ID card as the body of the animal, the pencil as its
long neck, and the eraser as its head. It may sound crazy, but it’s fun and it helps you remember what you need to
keep in your mind!
30. In Paragraph 1, the writer talks about a piece of chalk to _________.
A. lead to the topic of the article B. show the importance of chalk
C. let readers remember the word D. make readers know his favorite
31. After brain cells form a new connection, ________.
.
A it is stored in the sense system B. it sends messages to different cells
C. it goes into the short-term memory D. it puts the brain in excellent condition32. The third paragraph is mainly about how to ________.
A. do well in tests B. go over your work
C. make your memories stronger D. help your body in good condition
33. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Memory has nothing to do with the ability of sense.
B. People can use imagination to remember special things.
C. People just need repeating to remember new information.
D. Our brain is difficult to picture different things to improve memory.

四、阅读表达（每题2分, 共10分）
阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
So, it’s test time again. Have you done enough work to get good scores? Sleeping with the textbook under the
pillow doesn’t work.
The best way is to space your practice out, not to put it all together. Just as a scientist called Tom Stafford
advises, if you organize (组织) five hours of study into one hour a day, you will remember more than if you study
for five hours on one day.
Don’t depend on memory alone. Get pens and paper and start working! By testing themselves earlier, students
will be better at getting back the knowledge (知识) from the memory and keep it in the long run. John Dunlosky, a
researcher in the US, suggests that “you start by reading a textbook with your favorite pens and colors, and then
write down the important ideas on small cards. While doing so, you try to test yourselves on them in fact.”
Going over what you have learned carefully should give you confidence, but if you are still worried, it’s not
harmful to follow some special customs (习俗). For example, it seems to be a tradition for Japanese students to eat
Katsudon before a test. This is a bowl of rice with egg and meat pieces. The name of the dish makes people think of
the word “katsu”, meaning “winning”. For some students in South Korea, the key to success is not washing their
hair before a test, because they believe they could wash all the knowledge out of their heads.
The bottom line is that you need to study, eat a good meal, sleep well at night before the test, and believe that
what you have tried to do will bring you success. Good luck in your test!
34. Does sleeping with the textbook under the pillow help to get good scores?
________________________________________________________.
35. What is the best way to get good scores according to the passage?
________________________________________________________.
36. How will students be better at getting back the knowledge from the memory?________________________________________________________.
37. Who eats Katsudon before a test as a tradition?
_______________________________________________________.
38. What will you do if you want to get good scores?
_______________________________________________________.
