第三部分：阅读理解（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

A

It’s school time again! You’re probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer is over. Some kids feel nervous or a little scared on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends, and even a new school. Luckily, these “new” worries only stick around for a little while. Let’s find out more about going to a new school.

Most teachers kick off the new school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the stuff you’ll be doing that year. Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class, too. When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often go over classroom rules and school rules so you’ll know what’s allowed and what’s not. Please pay close attention

You might already know a lot of people in your classes on the first day, but it’s a great day to make a new friend, so try to say hello to kids you know and new ones that you don’t. Make the first move and you’ll be glad you did, and so will your new friend!

Seeing friends you haven’t seen in a while can make the first day a good one. You can make the day feel special by wearing clothes that you really like. Maybe you got a great T-shirt on one of your vacations, or a pair of sneakers（运动鞋）. It also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need, such as pencils, folders, and whatever else you’ll be needing. But make sure that you pack them the night before in case you don’t have time in the morning.

56. The underlined phrase “kick off” in the second paragraph probably means “_____”.

A. start B. study C. find D. teach

57. The last paragraphs mainly tell us about ________.

A. what to know about a new school

B. how to prepare for a new school

C. what to do on your first day of school

D. how to spend your first day of school

58. According to the passage you usually do everything on the first day of school except

_______.

A. introduce yourself B. learn about the school rules

C. make new friends D. go over your new lessons

59. If you happen to see an old friend on the first day of school, from the passage we

know that you will feel ________

A. nervous B. lucky C. happy D. excited

B

It’s good to get along with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.

It’s also good to get along with your teacher because, in general, it’s smart to learn how to relate to the different types of people you’ll meet throughout your life.

But really, there’s one super-important reason why you should get along with your teacher. When you do, “learning bursts right open,” says Evelyn Vuko, a longtime teacher who writes an education column called “Teacher Says” for the Washington Post newspaper.

In fact, kids who get along with their teachers not only learn more, but they’re also more comfortable asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier to understand new material and do the best on tests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher, he or she can be someone to turn to when you have problems, such as problems with learning, school issues, or bullying.

As a kid in elementary or middle school, you’re at a wonderful stage in your life. You’re like a sponge（海绵）, able to take in lots of new and exciting information. On top of that, you’re able to think about all this information in new ways. Remember teachers are people too, and they feel great if you’re open to what they’re teaching you. That’s why they wanted to be teachers in the first place—to teach!

In every school, kids will say certain teachers are tough. In fact, in most cases, your teacher wants to help you. And a teacher who’s called tough may be someone who feels strongly about getting his or her job done — teaching you what you are supposed to learn.

60. How do you understand the phrase “get along with” in this passage?

A. Sing high praise for. B. Follow the example of.

C. Leave a good impression on. D. Form a good relationship with.

61. From this passage we know that teachers like students who ________.

A. want to get extra help after class B. think about information in new ways

C. understand new material quickly D. are open to what they’re learning

62. If a teacher is tough, he/she is probably ________.

A. cruel and critical B. strict but hardworking

C. kind and gentle D. serious but honest

C

If you have ever been discouraged because of failure, please read on. Usually, achieving what you set out to do is not the important thing. Let me explain.

Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. As they were working, a couple of older boys stopped by to watch.

“What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors.

“We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” one of the brothers answered excitedly.

The older boys began to laugh, telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible. After a long silence, one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders, worms and a lot of insects. He removed the lid and showed the wonderful contents to the visitors who were laughing at them. Then he said quietly and confidently, “Even if we don’t dig all the way through the earth, look what we found along the way!”

Their goal was far too difficult, but it made them dig. And that is what a goal is for—to make us move in the direction we have chosen. In other words, it sets us to digging!

But not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will end successfully. Not every hope will come to pass. Not every love will last. But when you fall short of your aim, perhaps you can say, “Yes, but look at what I found along the way! Look at the wonderful things which have come into my life because I tried to do something!” And I believe it is the joy in the journey, in the end, that truly matters.

63. The writer told us the story to ________ .

A. advise us to treats our failures fairly

B. persuade us to make an aim for our lives

C. encourage us to learn from the two brothers

D. prove that failure helps us make achievements

64. What’s the best title of the passage?

A. Failure is the mother of success

B. When there is a will, there is a way

C. No pains, no gains

D. Joy in the journey

65. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Digging a hole all the way through the earth is impossible.

B. The writer thinks that the two brothers will reach their goal one day.

C. A goal is something that makes us want to dig holes.

D. Everyone can succeed if he sets a practical goal.
