25、   Albert Einstein was born on March 14, 1879, in Ulm, Germany. He certainly didn’t seem like a super smart and unusual child. He was fat with thick black hair. He was so quiet and shy that his parents worried that there was something wrong with him. They took Albert to doctors. “He doesn’t talk,” his parents said. The doctor found nothing wrong.

The story goes that Albert didn’t speak a word until he was three or four years old. Then suddenly, over supper one night, he said, “The soup is too hot. ” Greatly surprised, his parents asked why he had never said anything before. “Because,” little Albert said, “up to now, everything has been fine.”

Most boys of his age played soldier and other games. Not Albert. Albert liked to stay by himself and day-dream. He enjoyed playing with blocks (积木) and building houses out of playing cards — some of them were 14 storeys high.

His parents still worried about their lonely and quiet son. They took him to more doctors. “Could there be something wrong with his brain?” his parents asked. Once again, doctors found nothing wrong with the boy. It was just his nature. He was quiet. He was a thinker.

【1】Albert Einstein was born in ________ in Germany.

A.March B.April C.October D.November

【2】The family were having ________ when Albert said, “The soup is too hot. ”

A.breakfast B.lunch C.supper D.a party

26、Songs help memories

The power of music

Most people can remember important news stories clearly, whether it was the murder of President Kennedy in the US or 9/11.But now psychologists Martin Conway and Catriona Morrison, from the University of Leeds in the UK, are investigating how music can create “autobiographical memories” of the main events in our lives. The study is online. People have to choose a song by the Beatles and describe the memories that they have when they listen to it.

Reminiscence bump

Morrison explained that they looked at different age groups and their memories. We often remember more from when we are teenagers and this is called “the reminiscence bump”. This is the time in your life when you form your idea of who you are. For older people who have memories related to the Beatles’ music, most of those memories are from when they were teenagers. But younger people also had clear personal memories from their past.

She loves you

This study was different from other memory studies, because people remembered events from their past with lots more details. Morrison explained: “It was like people had travelled back to the past, and they had very clear memories of things that had happened. When they heard a song like She Loves You by the Beatles, they could remember one night in autumn 1963.They remembered what they were wearing, what the weather was like and what their friend said to them. You get a lot more information than if you just say, ‘tell me about a night you remember’. ”

The study has found that music could be used with people who have problems remembering the past. “You could use music to help improve people’s ability to remember,” said Morrison. “In the future, we would like to do more experiments to see how useful music is in helping people to remember the past, and compare it to other things that might also help.”

【1】Professor Conway and Dr. Morrison’s research aims to _____________.

A. see how music can help people remember the past

B. study old songs’ influence on people’s behavior

C. find out what influences people’s memories of the past

D. find ways to help people with memory difficulties

【2】The example of She Loves You is used to show that ___________.

A. love songs can help people to have clearer memories

B. songs tell stories that are similar to our experiences

C. music can take people back to their teenage years

D. people can remember more details with the help of music

【3】Morrison’s team’s future research is probably on ___________.

A. why some people have memory problems

B. what methods can best help people bring back memories

C. how music can help people in their studies or work

D. how to help older people remember more details about the past

27、The world is not only hungry, but it is also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you, since nearly 70% of the earth's surface is covered with water. But about 97% of that is sea water, or salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3%—the fresh water from rivers, lakes, underground, and other sources. And we can not even use all of that. Even worse, some of it has been made dirty.

However, as things stand today, this fresh water is still enough for us. But our need for water is becoming larger and larger quickly—almost day by day. We should take steps to do with this problem now and in this way we can get away from a serious worldwide water shortage (缺少) later on.

We all have to learn how to stop wasting our valuable water. One of the first steps is to develop ways of reusing it. Today in most large cities, water is used only once and then sent out into a sewer system(下水道). From there it returns to sea or runs into underground places.

But even if every large city reused its water, we still would not have enough. All we'd have to do to make use of sea water in the world is to remove the salt. If we take these steps we'll be in no danger of drying up.

【1】 The world is thirsty for water because .

A. man hasn't got enough food to eat

B. we haven't got enough fresh water

C. only 70% of the earth's surface is water

D. more water is sent into sewer systems

【2】 The underlined word “valuable” means .

A. much and salty B. fresh and enough

C. dear and useful D. clean and helpful

【13】The best but the most difficult way to solve (解决) the water problem of the world is to   .

A. remove the salt from sea water

B. make the water in cities clean

C. take water from underground

D. make the need for water smaller

【4】What's the best title (标题) for this passage?

A. The Importance of the Water

B. The World's Water Problem

C. The Thirsty World

D. Fresh Water and Sea Water

28、短文填空（10分）

Nowadays more and more Chinese teenagers find life more difficult without their parents. They don’t know how to d  【1】 with housework. Because their parents do almost everything for them at home. This is a big problem.

Joy is 14 years old. One day her parents went away on business(出差), so she had to stay at home alone. At first she thought she would be happy b  【2】 her parents were not in. She could do e  【3】 she liked. But at dinner time, she felt h  【4】 . “Oh, it’s time to have supper. Where can I get my food?” she said to h  【5】  .  Later she found some food in the fridge, but she didn’t know h  【6】  to cook. At that moment, she missed her p  【7】 very much. At last she could only go to the supermarket and b  【8】   some bread to eat.

Many teenagers are the s  【9】  as Joy. So I think they should l 【10】  some basic(基本的) life skills, like cooking, tidying up their rooms or dressing themselves properly. They shouldn’t depend on(依靠) their parents too much.

29、Learning experiences happen to us throughout our lives. Not long ago, I had one that I would like to _______.

I was going to Marblehead with my sailboat team. The team was racing down the highway at 85 mph _______ we realized we were hungry. Luckily, we saw a rest area ahead. I had a brand-new $20 bill. I was so excited because I had never had that kind of cash before. But spending it on food seemed like throwing it away. We all rushed into the pizza line. _______ I got a pizza and a drink, and walked to my table. About halfway through the meal, I ______ I had not actually handed any money to the cashier. I had just walked out, and nobody had noticed. I felt terrible.

My conscience (良心) opened its mouth and swallowed me in one big bite. I couldn’t get over it. I just couldn’t go back to the cashier and _______ for my stolen pizza. I was so upset that I _______ to give myself the pleasure of an ice cream in ______ that someone would say, “Hey, Jeff, why not you use the change from the pizza instead of that nice, new $20 bill?” I was not so proud of my cash now.

For the next two years, whenever I was _______ of the “pizza incident”, I would say to myself, “Don’t think about it.”

I have learned two things from this _______. Maybe I was a fool for giving in to my conscience, and being too stupid to appreciate a _______ pizza. But the real lesson is that even if you get away from what you have done, your conscience will ________ up with you.

This reflects the saying, “Coward (懦夫) dies a thousand deaths, a hero dies one.” I was a coward and have felt terrible about that incident at least a thousand times. If I had been a “________” and gone back to pay for the pizza, I would have felt a little uncomfortable about it only one, or maybe twice.
