The word that has changed the world
Apple is one of the most popular fruits in our life, and
people eat apples every day. But there are 36
apples that are
especially important to the history of our human beings and
they have changed the whole world.
Long long ago when the world just started, apple was a forbidden(禁止) 37
in the Garden of
Eden, however, a girl named Eve stole（偷） and ate it. Unfortunately, she was discovered by God, and
was driven away 38
the Garden together with a boy called Adam. After they
39
the
garden, Adam and Eve had their own babies and 40
the ancestors(祖先) of all of us. This is the
beginning of our world, history
41
morality.（道德）
In the Autumn of 1665, there 42
a young man sitting under an apple tree in his garden.
His name was Newton. While he was thinking one of the problems, suddenly, an apple dropped
down from the tree and fell on his head. 43
this, Newton discovered gravitation(万有引力) on
that day and his new idea of science made people really
44
and happy, also he
45
our
opinions about nature and the way we think, then people began to learn what
46
was at that
time.
And
47
, Jobs Steve, this crazy old man changed the world by his apple products（产品）. For
example, 48
can be found everywhere in the street, young people feel cool when they use this
kind of new high-tech product. Don’t you think
49
apple products have become a symbol （象
征）of our time? As Jobs Steve often said he was born to change the world and he made it. 50
he has died, people remember him and miss him, because he made our life more colorful and
amazing.

In the United States, headmasters（校长） and teachers discipline(惩罚)students in several ways. The
teacher often writes to or calls the student’s parents. Sometimes students have to stay at school for one
hour. If a student behaves(行为)very badly, the headmaster can stop the student having classes. The student
can’t come to school for one, two or three days. Mr.Lazares, the headmaster of a middle school in Ohio, did
not like to do so. When he didn’t let the students come to school, they were happy. “A three-day holiday!”
They thought.
One day, a boy was in Mr.Lazares’s office. The boy was not behaving well in class. Mr.Lazares
telephoned the boy’s parents. “If you come to school with your son, I won’t stop him having classes,” he
said. The boy’s father came to school and went with his son to every class. Other students looked at the boy
and his father. The boy was embarrassed( 难为情). After that he behaved better. And of course other
students behaved better, too.
Now headmasters all over the USA are trying Mr.Lazares’s idea. They, too, think that students behave
better when parents come to school.
( )56. What does a headmaster usually do to the student if he behaves very badly?
A. Writes to the students’ parents.
B. Lets the student stay at school for an hour.

What’s the strongest part of your body? Your head? Bones? It’s your teeth. There is a special
thing called enamel（牙釉质）in teeth. It is the hardest thing in the human body and keeps bacteria
（细菌）away. However, teeth are hurt easily to problems and disease. September 20 is National
Teeth-loving Day in China. Let’s pay attention to the health of our teeth.
Teeth problems are common around the world. Most children and young adults have tooth
decay（龋齿）. A study which come out on China Health Monthly magazine this year showed that
40.74% of a sample（抽样）of 1,306 Chinese students under age 15 has decayed teeth.
Food that is rich in sugar increases the risk of tooth decay. After you eat, bacteria go crazy
over the sugar on your teeth. The bacteria turn sugar into acids that eat away at tooth enamel.
This causes holes in your teeth.
Another common problem is crooked teeth（龅牙）. When your new teeth begin to grow and
the old teeth haven’t fallen out, there isn’t enough space for the new ones. This causes crooked
teeth.
Don’t worry. Here are some ways to keep your teeth healthy.
◆Brush at least twice a day in the morning and in the evening.
◆Learn to use dental floss( 牙线). The floss gets rid of food that’s hidden where your
toothbrush can’t get it.
◆Visit a dentist. He or she can check if you have any dental problems and help you clean
your teeth.
◆Pay attention to what you eat. It’s better to eat lots of fruit and vegetables instead of fries
and drink water instead of soda.
◆Wear braces(牙套) to make your teeth straight and beautiful.
( )61. What’s the strongest part in the human body according to the passage?
A. Bones.
B. Teeth.
C. Head.
D. Bactria.
( )62. When is National Teeth-loving Day in China?
A. September 30.
B. October 20. C. September 20. D. June 5.
D
What’s the most important thing for you to have in your life? Somebody mentions hard-work, others
suggest knowledge, love and luck.
If you arrange（排列） the 26 English letters in order(顺序) and use numbers to represent each of them,
for example, 1 for a, 2 for b, 3 for c…26 for z, you can change an English word into a number. So hard-
work becomes 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11=98, meaning 98 is its mark （分数）. Knowledge:
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5=96, love:12+15+22+5=54, and luck: 12+21+3+11=47, a small mark. None of
these words can give one a full mark. What about money? It can’t , either.
Then what else? Don’t be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you
change your way of looking at things or doing things, or your attitude(态度）. Yes, attitude is the word. See
for yourself: attitude:1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100，a full mark.
Different attitudes lead to（导致） different courses of life. Most time people hope for a better life. It is
possible that they will have a better life if they change their attitudes. When you change your manner and
became friendly towards others, you’ll meet more smiling faces towards you. In the same way, if you take a
positive（积极的） attitude t owards failure（失败）, you’ll find it’s also rewarding（有益的）though it has
caused you losses（损失）.
( )66. According to the passage，what number does 8 represent ?
A. g B. h C. i D. j
( )67. The writer thinks ________ is the most important thing in a person’s life.
A. hard-work. B. know ledge C. money D. attitude
( )68. What is the mark of the word“money” according to the passage?
A. 73 B. 72 C. 75 D. 62
( )69. According to the passage, if you meet with problems, the best way is to_______
A. ask for help from others B. hope to be lucky
C. change your attitude D. try math-solving ways
( )70. From the passage we can learn that ________.
A. different attitudes come from different courses of life
B.sometimes failure can bring you good if you take a positive attitude
C. math can solve every problem easily in our daily life
D. none of the English words except “attitude” is 100 or more
