三、閱讀判斷

(20xx·山東臨沂)People already know a lot about animals. However, there are still some things about animals that may surprise you. Here are some facts about animals you probably didn’t know.

Cows do have best friends and feel stressed when they are separated. Scientists have found that cows are very social animals and a cow always makes friends with other cows. When a cow is with its friends, it feels relaxed, compared with when it is alone.

During breeding season, a male penguin (企鵝) will offer a small stone to a female penguin as a gift. If she takes it, they will become partners. When the female penguin lays an egg, she and her partner may carry it on their feet, because some penguins don’t build nests (鳥巢).

Crocodiles (鱷魚) swallow (吞) stones. Crocodiles always swallow their food instead of eating it like other animals. They swallow stones which break the food into very small pieces in their stomachs. These stones may stay in their stomachs all their lives.

Elephants use plants to treat pain or other illness. Scientists once found a pregnant (懷孕的) elephant in Africa who ate a kind of plant which was not part of her normal food. Four days later, she gave birth to a baby elephant. The same plant was used by the local pregnant women.

根據短文內容,判斷下列句子正誤。正確的用“A”表示,不正確的用“B”表示。

1.A cow hates making friends with other cows.

the male penguins will build nests if the female penguins lay eggs.

odiles swallow stones to help with digestion (消化).

hants eat plants only when they are hungry.

Sometimes, little things can bring big changes. Justice and Nathaniel are learning this with music. A cello and a violin brought big changes to their lives.

Justice and Nathaniel are in sixth grade. They go to a middle school named Northwest School of the Arts. They used to go to Winterfield Elementary School. Winterfield has a program with the Charlotte Symphony Orchestra (CSO). The CSO program teaches kids how to play musical instruments. Justice learned to play the violin. Nathaniel learned to play the violin and the cello. They are the first students from the program to go to Northwest.

For the past six years, the CSO has given after-school music classes at Winterfield. Most of the kids in the school come from poor homes. It’s difficult for their parents to afford music lessons. The CSO wants the kids to learn about music, and it also wants them to stay out of trouble and get better grades.

The program was started to teach kids about music. It wants to help kids in other ways, too. Kids are allowed to take smaller instruments home to practice. This teachers them to take responsibility for something valuable. The program also encourages cooperation(合作). Students must spend time with children they might know outside of the program. And also, the program teaches practice habits. When students get better after practice, they learn that practice is good.

Students use the first year to explore and find a “forever instrument.” Justice tried out the clarinet and cello before picking a aniel liked the trumpet but decided on the cello and violin.

“When I started, it actually looked easy, but I knew it would get tougher,” says Nathaniel. “Practicing is a pleasure. I’m always trying to get a song perfect, so I’m playing 15-20-25 minutes a day.”

Thanks to music, Justice and Nathaniel got into a good middle school. Justice’s mom said she is very glad that he does well in class and that he likes it. “It makes a big difference,” Nathaniel’s dad said.

word “cello” in the passage is most probably ___________.

A. are six-year-old school boysB. are learning art in a primary school

五、補全短文6選5

根據短文內容，從下列選項中選出能填入文中空白處的最佳選項。選項中有一項為多餘選項。

Most families love to go on holiday together. It is great fun to leave your common life behind and go somewhere different and exciting!

people enjoy traveling around cities and visiting museums. Other people prefer outdoor holidays, where you can hike or go boating. Some people like cruises, where the huge ship is like a hotel.

Many families go on holiday in summer, when schools are closed. the past, most British families would take their holidays at a British seaside town. However, now many people choose to go abroad instead. One reason for this is to escape(躲藏) the possibility of rain at home! France, Spain and Greece are popular destinations(目的地).

In the United States, summer holidays often involve a road trip. is common to drive hundreds of miles to get to your destination. If the beach is too far away, you could go to one of the national parks. Many people love to enjoy the natural beauty of places such as Yellowstone or the Grand Canyon.

winter, many people go skiing. The Alps are a very popular place to ski. The mountain scenery is truly wonderful! You can try downhill skiing, cross-country skiing or snowshoeing.

Not matter what kind of holiday you take, there are two things that nearly everyone does. The first is to sent postcards to friends and family at home, so they can see a photo of the place where you are. The second is to buy some sort of souvenir(紀念品) to that you can remember your trip——maybe a T-shirt or an art piece.5.

六、多工混合問題

(A) No one knows why we sleep, but it’s certain that we need to. People who are prevented from sleeping begin to suffer obvious effects (產生明顯的反應) after a few days—they think less clearly, and they fall asleep during the working hours; some may have hallucinations (幻覺).

There are no rules about sleep. Generally speaking, grown-ups sleep about 7 and a half hours each night and probably more than 60 per cent get between seven and eight hours. But perhaps eight per cent are quite happy with 5 hours or less, and four per cent or so find that they want ten hours or more. (B)如果你感覺好的話, you’re probably getting enough sleep. The important thing is not to worry how much other people get—their needs may be different. Exercise doesn’t seem to increase the need for sleep—office workers, for example, sleep for about as long as people doing physically active work.

Children sleep more than grown-ups—perhaps 14 to 18 hours soon after birth, going down to grown-up levels by early teenage. Sleep patterns (睡眠模式) also tend (傾向) to be different in the elderly, who may sleep less at night than they did when younger, find sleep getting worse, and often make it a rule to sleep during the daytime.

[1] I’m a 34-year-old man, married, lived in a nice house, and have a successful career. But my life was not always so great. I had a learning disability from an early age. I went to a special school where I got plenty of extra (額外的) help. Still, I suffered the rest of my school days in public schools.

[2] My life improved greatly when I discovered art. The art world gave me a chance to express myself without words. I went to a workshop and gradually became good at making things with clay. Here I learned my first important lesson: disabled as I was in language, I could still be smart and well express myself with clay. And my confidence（自信）came along.

[3] I got my next lesson from rock climbing. It was a fun thing but I was scared from the start. （68）I soon noticed it wasn’t a talent thing; it needed lots of practice. So I did it more.

[4] Later I decided to learn (69) ① to read and write. I practiced reading and(69)② , which I used to avoid as much as possible. After two years, I was literate(有文化的).
