            • 2. Kailash Satyarthi and Malala Yousafzai,two child welfare activists from Indian and Pakistan  respectively,on Wednesday received the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize.
              At an awarding ceremony held at the Oslo City Hall,Norwegian Nobel Committee Chairman Thorbjoem Jagland praised the two prize winners for their joint efforts and brave struggle in fighting  child labour in India and promoting girl's right to education in Pakistan.
              “A conscience exists in the world which extends beyond all national boundaries,and is  independent of religion,culture and social belief.It states that children have a right to childhood;  they have a right to go to school instead of being forced to work.They are not to start life as the  slaves of others,“Jagland said.

              At the awarding ceremony a young man ran up to Malala and unfolded a Mexican national flag in front of the audience and press cameras.
              The man,whose identity is not known yet,was quickly taken away and handed over to the police.
              It was guessed that the man's action was related to the recent killing of school students.

              24.Why was Malala Yousafzai awarded the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize?    
              A.Because she devotes herself to promoting girl's right to education in Pakistan.
              B.Because she keeps on fighting child labour in India.
              C.Because she is willing to share her thoughts with the audience.
              D.Because she calls on the entire world to stand up for child rights and welfare.
              25.According to Jagland,    
              A.a conscience depends on religion,culture and social belief
              B.only poor children have a right to go o school
              C.168million children have to work at present
              D.not all countries have the conscience
              26.What did a young man do at the ceremony?

            • 3. (2015•日照模拟)The International Painting Contest on Google’s homepage in 2015 may look pretty strange,but it spotlightings a very serious issue:clean water,which is unusual for an 11-year-old from Long Island.
              Audrey Zhang,a fifth-grader from Levittown,N.Y,is the winner of this year’s Doodle 4Google contest,rising to the top of some 100,000entries on the theme of“draw one thing to make the world a better place.”
              Her piece,titled“Back to Mother Nature,”describes a detailed water-cleaning machine.Zhang worked with a team of artists at Google to animate(使…生动)her drawing.
              “To make the world a better place,I came up with a transformative water purifier,a machine used to remove dirty or harmful substances,”Google quoted Zhang as saying.“It takes in dirty and polluted water from rivers,lakes and even oceans,then massively transforms the water into clean,safe and pure water.When humans and animals drink this water,they will live a healthier life.”
              She created a whole world around the device-one populated by humans,a whale in a top hat and dragons.
              Zhang,s piece is“so vivid and so rich and so full and so complete,”Google Doodle team leader Ryan Germick told the Washington Post.“Every leaf seemed to have life in it.”
              Along with having her artwork featured on Google’s homepage,Zhang wins a 30,000 dollars college scholarship.In addition,her school will receive a 50,000dollars Google for Education technology grant,and the company is donating 20,000dollars in her name to a charity devoted to bringing clean water to schools in Bangladesh.On Sunday,the night before her work was revealed on net,Zhang told Newsday she was excited by the big win,but said she wouldn't be awake when her art first went online at midnight.
              “I have school-tomorrow,so I can’t stay up late,”she told the paper.

            • 4. The world’s richest man might seem to have it all,but Bill Gates has one regret.The self-made billionaire said he felt stupid for not knowing any foreign languages.
              Speaking in his third Ask Me Anything question-and-answer session for online forum Reddit(红迪网),the Microsoft founder said that he wished he spoke French,Arabic or Chinese.
              He said:“I took Latin and Greek in high school and got A's and I guess it helps my vocabulary.I keep hoping to get time to study one of these-probably French because it is the easiest.I did Duolingo for a while but didn’t keep it up.”
              Gates,who is worth 79.3dollars billion,praised Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg for surprising an audience in Beijing when he spoke fluent Chinese.“Mark Zuckerberg amazingly leamed Chinese and did a Q&A with Chinese students-unbelievable,isn’t it?”he said.
              This isn’t the first time for Gates to admit his regret over language.He also showed his habits at home and personal insights.
              Last February,Gates said he likes to do the dishes himself-to his own special standards every night and also told the interviewer that his wife,Melinda,would likely want Samuel L.Jackson to play her husband in a biopic(传记片).
              He also admitted that he would pick up a $100 bill if he found it on the street.
              As he took the top spot on Forbes(福布斯)28th Annual Billionaires list last year for the fourth time,he said he is pretty basic when it comes to so ending on clothes and food,but that he enjoys investing in shoes and racquets(球拍)when he plays tennis.
              When asked a life lesson he had to learn the hard way,the billionaire said staying up too late is a habit he is still trying to break.‘‘Don’t stay up too late even if the book is really exciting.You will regret it in the morning.Pam still working on this problem,”he said.

            • 5. About a year ago,I went to stay at a Detroit hotel.I didn't want to carry too much money with me,so I asked the desk clerk to put a hundred-dollar bill in the safe for me.
              The next morning,however,the clerk said he knew nothing about my money.I didn't have any proof that I had given the man the money.There was nothing I could do but go to the nearest lawyer.
              The lawyer advised me to return to the hotel with him and give another hundred-dollar bill to the clerk.So we did.An hour later,I went back to the desk and asked for my money.Since I had the lawyer as an eyewitness to the second hundred-dollar bill,the clerk could not say he knew nothing about it.
              Another hour later,I put the second part of the lawyer's plan into action.This time both the lawyer and I went to the hotel to ask for the hundred-dollar bill once again,and when the clerk insisted he had already given it to me,I said it was not true.The lawyer said to him,“I saw this gentleman give you a hundred-dollar bill.If you don't return it immediately,I'll be forced to call the police.“The clerk realized he had been cheated,so he gave me back the first hundred-dollar bill.
              “I don't know how to thank you enough for getting my money back,”I said to the lawyer.And what do you suppose he answered?He said,“Oh,don't thank me.That will be a hundred dollars,please.”

              31.What do you think a“safe”is    
              A.A box to put money or other valuables in  
              B.A desk at the checking counter
              C.A room in which guests’money is kept  
              D.A hotel to stay in
              32.The hotel clerk finally returned the first hundred-dollar bill to me because    
              A.the lawyer had seen everything  
              B.he was afraid of going to prison
              C.the bill was not real money   
              D.I had called the police
              33.At last how much should the author lose in all    
              A.100  
              B.200

              34.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage

              C.How I lost my money   
              D.At a Detroit hotel.
            • 6. In 1943,when I was 4,my parents moved from Coeur d’Alene,Idaho,to Fairbanks,Alaska,where adventure was never very far away.
              We arrived in the summer,just in time to enjoy the midnight sun.All that sunlight was fantastic for Mom’s vegetable garden.Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off,so she didn’t care much about my bedtime.
              Dad was a Railway Express agent and Mom was his clerk.That left me in a mess.I usually managed to find some trouble to get into.Once I had a little fire going in the dirt basement of a hotel.I had tried to light a barrel(桶)of paint but couldn’t really get a good fire going.The smoke got pretty bad,though,and when I made my exit,a crowd and the police were there to greet me.The policemen took my matches and drove me home.
              Mom and Dad were occupied in the garden and Dad told the police to keep me,and they did!I had a tour of the prison before Mom rescued me.I hadn’t turned 5yet.
              As I entered kindergarten,the serious cold began to set in.Would it surprise you to know that I soon left part of my tongue on a metal handrail(扶手)at school?
              As for Leonhard Seppala,famous as a dog sledder (驾雪橇者),I think I knew him well because I was taken for a ride with his white dog team one Sunday.At the time I didn’t realize what a superstar he was,but I do remember the ride well.I was wrapped (包裹) heavily and well sheltered from the freezing and blowing weather.
              In 1950,we moved back to Coeur d’Alene,but we got one more Alaskan adventure when Leonhard invited us eight years later by paying a visit to Idaho to attend a gathering of former neighbors of Alaska.

              B.His parents didn’t love him.
              C.His parents used to be very busy.
              D.His mother didn’t have any jobs.
              47.What happened when the author was four?    
              A.He nearly caused a fire accident.
              B.He was arrested by the police.
              C.He was locked in a basement.
              D.He learned to smoke.
              48.When the author entered kindergarten,he    
              A.liked to surprise people    
              B.got a terrible cold
              C.had an accident   
              D.lost his tongue
              49.Which of the following is true?

              50.What is the author’s purpose of writing the text?    
              A.To look back on his childhood with adventures.
              B.To describe the extreme weather of Alaska.
              C.To express how much he misses Leonhard.
              D.To show off his pride in making trouble.
            • 7. My wife and I have always been friendly with the clerks at the local convenience store.I don’t think many people appreciate what a difficult job these folks have.They work for a little over minimum wage and I often wonder how they make ends meet.
              One of the clerks,Charlie,was always wearing his glasses but he didn’t one day.I asked him about it and he said they’d been out of order and that he couldn’t afford a new pair.His family needed money.It was obvious that he was having a difficult time.
              We wanted to help him,so we turned to our own eye doctor for assistance with a plan.We had his secretary contact him,asking him to come in for an eye exam for free.We told the doctor to let him order whatever glasses he wanted and that we would pay for them.Although Charlie questioned what was going on,the doctor just told him that someone had offered the money for his new glasses.When we went in to pay the bill,the doctor told us he was so touched by our idea that he waived the exam fee and only charged us for half the price of the glasses!
              It was so wonderful to see Charlie in her new glasses and he enjoyed telling all the regular customers how the gift came about.I’m sure that upon hearing her story,ideas of kindness may have emerged in the minds of many.

              D.He forgot to wear his glasses.

              A.Charlie was a young man with skills
              B.Charlie knew who paid the money for the new glasses
              C.Charlie didn’t support his family with enough money
              D.Charlie entirely accepted the money for the new glasses

            • 8. In English the spelling of words does not always represent the sound.So people say/rait/but spell it right or write,or even rite.Combinations of letters may be pronounced in many ways.And some words just seem to have too many letters.
                For Americans things are a little bit easier,thanks to the work of Noah Webster,a teacher who graduated from Yale University in 1778.As a young man,he had fought against the British in the American War of Independence,and he felt that written English in the newly independent United States should have a distinctive American look.
                So he began his work on American English.His first book,The Elementary Spelling Book,suggested simplifying the spelling of English words.The book was extremely popular.By the 1850s,it was selling one million copies a year,making it one of the most popular school books ever.
                Many of the suggestions were quickly adopted.Center instead of centre,program instead of programme,and flavor instead of flavour.Others,however,such as removing silent letters like s in island or the final e in examine,were not.
                 Webster is best known for his American Dictionary of the English language,which first appeared in 1828.It introduced lots of new American words,with information about their pronunciation and use,and,of course,the new spelling.The British criticized the dictionary,but it quickly became a standard reference book in the States.Today,Webster's dictionary is still the number one dictionary for American students.
              5.What is the text mainly about?    
              A.Webster and his best sellers.
              B.British and American English.
              C.The history of American English.
              D.The man who made spelling simple.
              6.Which is the right order according to the text?

              ②American Dictionary of the English language came out.
              ③Webster's book was selling one million copies a year.
              ④Webster took part in the American War of Independence.
              A.②①③④B.③①②④C.④①③②D.①②③④
              7.What can we learn from the text?    
              A.All the spelling of words does not represent the sound.
              B.The Elementary Spelling Book was published in the 1850s.
              C.Webster's suggestions were accepted completely.
              D.Webster's dictionary is the best all over the world.
              8.What attitude do the British have towards Webster's dictionary?    
              A.They thought highly of it.
              B.They found fault with it.
              C.They argued bitterly about it.
              D.They followed the examples of it.
            • 9. DAVID Beckham didn’t make it.Cristiano Ronaldo didn’t hit it so big either.But Gareth Bale,24,has become the most expensive soccer player in the history of the game.
                  Four years after the arrival of Ronaldo at a record cost of 125million(765millionyuan)in2009,RealMadridisexpectedtopay135 million for Bale.But how is it that Bale,who was playing left back and being benched (当替补) by his English Premier League team a couple of years ago,now attracts such a big deal?
                  As of years ago,the Welshman had played 24 matches for Tottenham Hotspur,and had never finished on the winning side once-a record for any Premier League player.Tottenham even privately considered selling him.“A player who had once looked a prodigy (神童)-as a 17-year-old Southampton full back,the youngest ever international for Wales-already appeared,at 20,on the way down,”wrote Tim Adams at UK’s The Observer.
                  Through all the humiliations (屈辱),Bale hung on.While he was injured and kept out of games,he worked hard to reinvent himself.Bale’s father Frank’s uncompromising (不妥协的) discipline had a great impact on his son.
                  When he returned from injury later that season,Bale had been transformed in the gym.In a Champions League match in 2010,he established himself as the so-called“Incredi-Bale”overnight throughout Europe.With his team four goals behind to Inter Milan at halftime,Bale surprisingly scored a hat-trick before the game was over.Even former Manchester United coach,Alex Ferguson,praised him:“He had been a six-foot,gangly (瘦长的),slim boy; then all of a sudden he was built like a light heavyweight boxer.”
                  With Bale’s help,Tottenham are flying high in the league.In the 2012-13 season,he won all three of t he important individual awards:the PFA (Professional Footballers’Association) Player of the Year and Young Player of the Year awards and the Football Writers’Association Footballer of the Year award.
                  This has all led to people comparing him to Barcelona’s Lionel Messi and Ronaldo,who are widely regarded as the two best players in the world.
                  Former Madrid star Zinedine Zidane has even decided to mentor (指导) Bale.“He’s perhaps not quite at the level of the other two,but he’s different,”Zidane told ESPN.“So personally I don’t think he’s far off.”
              56.According to the text,which of the following is true?    
              A.Gareth Bale played full back for Southampton at the age of 17.
              B.Tottenham Hotspur never considered selling Gareth Bale.
              C.Tottenham Hotspur beat Inter Milan in a Champions League match.
              D.Gareth Bale won all three of the important individual awards in life.
              57.What plays the most critical role in Bale’s successful career?    
              A.His natural talent for soccer
              B.His father’s discipline and impact.
              C.His determination and hard work
              D.His coaches’effective guidance.

            • 10. She was dancing.My lame grandmother was dancing.I stood in the living room doorway,looking at her beautiful movements,absolutely shocked.She was the pet of the dancing world.And then she’d had her accident and it was all over.I had read that in an old newspaper article.
              “So…Your leg?I mean,how did your leg heal (恢复健全)?”
              “To tell you the truth-my legs have been well all my life,”she sighed.
              “But I don’t understand!”I said,“Your dancing career (事业)…You pretended all these years?”
              ”Very much so,and for a very good reason.”
              She thought for a while and then continued.“We were talking about engagement (订婚) when your grandfather had to go to war.I was so afraid of losing him that the only way I could stay normal was to dance.I put all my energy and time into practicing and I became very good.Critics praised me,the public loved me,but all I could feel was the ache in my heart,not knowing whether the love of my life would ever return.Then one day a letter came.There were only three sentences:‘I have lost my leg.I am no longer a whole man and now give you back your freedom.It is best you forget about me.”
              “I made my decision there and then.I traveled away from the city.When I returned I had bought myself a stick.I told everyone I had been in a car crash and that my leg would never completely heal again.My dancing days were over.No one doubted the story-I had learned to limp (一瘸一拐地走) convincingly before I returned home.And I made sure the first person to hear of my accident was a reporter I knew well.Then I traveled to the hospital.They had pushed your grandfather outside in his wheelchair.I took a deep breath,leaned on my stick and limped to him.”
              “I showed him newspaper articles of my accident.‘There is a whole life waiting for us out there!But I am not going to carry you.You are going to walk yourself.’”
              “I limped a few steps toward him and showed him what I’d taken out of my pocket.‘Now show me you are still a man.’I said.He bent to take his stick from the ground and struggled out of that wheelchair.He managed it on his own and walked to me and never sat in a wheelchair again in his life.”
              “What did you show him?”I had to know.Grandma looked at me and smiled.“Two engagement rings,of course.I had bought them the day after he left for the war and I was not going to waste them on any other man.”
