At thirteen, I was diagnosed with a kind of attention disorder. It made school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.
In my first literature class, Mrs. Smith asked us to read a story and then write about it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, “Mrs. Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.
She glanced down at me through her glasses, “You are not different from your classmates, young man.”
I tried, but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home.
In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots, which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.
Wasn’t I the “blind” one in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted” students? My thoughts flowed and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was not different from others; I just needed a quieter place. Now that Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up? I didn’t expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs. Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day —with an “A” on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words: “See what you can do when you keep tying.”
24. Why did the author fail to finish class reading?
A. He had poor reading skills. B. He was tired of literature.
C. He had an attention disorder. D. He wanted to take the task home.
25. What do we know about Louis Braille from the text?
A. He was poor. B. He was very creative.
C. He was near-sighted. D. He was well-educated.
26. What was Mrs. Smith’s attitude to the author at the end of the story?
A. Angry. B. Impatient. C. Supportive. D. Negative.
27. What does the text mainly want to tell us?
A The blind should be treated with respect.
B. Teachers can open up a new world to students.
C. Everyone needs a hand when faced with challenges.
D. One can find his way out of difficulties with efforts.
C
Guardian Angels are people who travel on the New York subways and protect other passengers from criminals (罪犯). They are volunteers: they don’t get paid anything to do this job. The Guardian Angels would never have appeared without a young man named Curtis Sliwa.
Forty-three years ago, if you’d wanted to travel home late at night on the New York subway, you wouldn’t have felt very safe. Luckily, on February 13, 1979, at 3:00 a. m. , the first safety patrol (巡逻)—called The Team—went into action. Curtis Sliwa and his friend Don Chin began to cleanup crime on one of New York’s toughest subway lines, the Number 4 train. However, this was not a job for two, but a job for 13, so thirteen brave people walked into the last car of the Number 4 subway line in New York City—the “Mugger’s Express”. If they saw a danger of violence (暴力), they stopped it, using non-violent means. The group became known as the “Magnificent 13”.
The Magnificent 13 soon went from thirteen members to hundreds and they changed their name to the Guardian Angels Safety Patrol (GASP). At first, GASP faced opposition from the police, but they had the strong support of the public. Today, the Guardian Angels can be found all over the US. If you travel by subway, you will see them wearing red hats and white T-shirts. Although Guardian Angels are not armed, if they’re present, a criminal will think twice before committing a crime.
The Guardian Angels also train young people to join them in their fight against crime. They believe that if they train groups of volunteers to patrol dangerous areas in New York, the city will be safer for everybody. “If we had more volunteers, we would be able to reduce the problems many cities face: violence, crime, and drugs. ”
They have also started after-school training programs inside high schools and community centers. If young people visit the Guardian Angels Headquarters (总部), volunteers will talk to them about their work and will then guide them through the Times Square area. It’s fun. It’s safe and meaningful!
28. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The changes brought by the Magnificent 13.
B. The birth of the Guardian Angels Safety Patrol.
C. The subway lines that the Guardian Angels patrolled.
D. The reason why Curtis Sliwa wanted to stop subway crime.
29. What can we learn from the passage?
A The police influenced the public’s opinions about GASP.
B. Volunteers play an active role in reducing crime in New York.
C. The Magnificent 13 put an end to crime on the Mugger’s Express.
D. The Guardian Angels sometimes turn to violence to keep passengers safe.
30. What can young people do at the Guardian Angels Headquarters?
A. Talk to the leader of GASP. B. Take part in training programs.
C. Carry out safety patrols with guides. D. Get educated about the Guardian Angels’work.
31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To publicize a social service group. B. To call attention to public safety concerns.
C. To introduce Curtis Sliwa’s great contributions. D. To present new ways to reduce crime in society.
D
Living near bars and fast-food restaurants could be harmful to heart health, according to a new research. These kinds of ready-to-eat food environments typically provide unhealthy foods and drinks, and have been related to cardiovascular diseases, such as heart failure, said Lu Qi, a head researcher at Tulane University in New Orleans.
Heart failure is a condition in which the heart can’t get enough blood to meet the body’s needs. This study is likely the first to evaluate (评估) the connection between food environment and heart failure with long-term observation. “Most previous researches on the relation between nutrition (营养) and human health have been focused on food quality, neglecting the impact of food environment,” Qi said. “Our present study highlights the importance of accounting for food environment in nutrition researches.”
Researchers evaluated the connection using data from more than 500,000 adults in the United Kingdom. They measured participants’ exposure (接触 ) to three types of food environments — bars, restaurants and fast-food restaurants. Exposure was determined ‘ by proximity (living within 1 kilometer) and density (the number of ready-to-eat food stores within 1 kilometer).
The study documented nearly 13,000 heart failure cases during a 12-year follow-up period and the results showed that participants with 10 or more ready-to-eat stores near their homes had a 16% greater risk of heart failure than those with no ready-to-eat food environments. Those closest to the bars(less than 500 meters) had a 14% higher risk than those who lived the farthest away (more than 3,000 meters).
The researchers noted the findings suggested that creating healthier food environments and improving physical fitness facilities, along with helping more people receive higher levels of education, could reduce the increased risk of heart failure linked to quick-meal options.
Overall, the study stresses the importance of improving food environments to prevent heart failure, and the researchers note that more studies are needed, particularly evaluating nutrition unsafety, to make sure of the applicability of this study’s results.
32. What does the underlined word “neglecting” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Questioning. B. Identifying. C. Considering. D. Ignoring.
33. How did the researchers get their research findings according to paragraph 4?
A. By making a comparison. B. By explaining a theory.
C. By showing an argument. D. By describing a process.
34. What is presented in paragraph 5?
A. Possible causes. B. Solving strategies.
C. Research results. D. People’s reactions.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Ways Food Is Cooked Really Count
B. Single Food Choices Lead to Nutritional Imbalance
C. Ready-to-eat Food Surroundings Could Harm Heart Health
D Fast Food Is Increasingly Entering the Consumption Market

She worked hard to provide for her children, doing a few part-time jobs to make ends meet. In spite of the challenges, Mary managed to give them a happy and stable childhood.
One Saturday morning, Mary was at home with her children, preparing breakfast for them. Jack was beside her while James was playing alone in the bedroom next to the kitchen. It was a typical weekend, filled with laughter and warmth. Little did they know something unexpected was just around the corner.
As Mary was busy with the food, a fire broke out in the kitchen. Panicked, Mary took hold of Jack and rushed towards the front door. They made it to safety only to find James remained stuck inside. Mary put Jack down and turned back to get James out, but in such a hurry and panic, she missed a step and fell on the ground. Her right ankle got sprained so seriously that she couldn`t stand up. Mary sat on the ground helplessly, her tears mixed with screams, “My kid is still in the house. Somebody, help me!”
At that very moment, Simon, 52, a former army soldier in the same community as Mary, happened to pass her house and saw the terrible scene. He immediately ran across the yard to ask the crying mother where her kid exactly was. In a shaking voice, Mary responded, “In the bedroom next to the kitchen.” The fire spread quickly and the house was filled with thick smoke. Simon looked around and saw a blanket hanging beside a pool full of water in the middle of the yard.

At thirteen, I was diagnosed with a kind of attention disorder. It made school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.
In my first literature class, Mrs. Smith asked us to read a story and then write about it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, “Mrs. Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.
She glanced down at me through her glasses, “You are not different from your classmates, young man.”
I tried, but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home.
In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots, which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.
Wasn’t I the “blind” one in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted” students? My thoughts flowed and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was not different from others; I just needed a quieter place. Now that Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up? I didn’t expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs. Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day —with an “A” on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words: “See what you can do when you keep tying.”
24. Why did the author fail to finish class reading?
A. He had poor reading skills. B. He was tired of literature.
C. He had an attention disorder. D. He wanted to take the task home.

C. He was near-sighted. D. He was well-educated.
26. What was Mrs. Smith’s attitude to the author at the end of the story?
A. Angry. B. Impatient. C. Supportive. D. Negative.
27. What does the text mainly want to tell us?
A. The blind should be treated with respect.
B. Teachers can open up a new world to students.
C. Everyone needs a hand when faced with challenges.
D. One can find his way out of difficulties with efforts.
【答案】24. C 25. B 26. C 27. D

Guardian Angels are people who travel on the New York subways and protect other passengers from criminals (罪犯). They are volunteers: they don’t get paid anything to do this job. The Guardian Angels would never have appeared without a young man named Curtis Sliwa.
Forty-three years ago, if you’d wanted to travel home late at night on the New York subway, you wouldn’t have felt very safe. Luckily, on February 13, 1979, at 3:00 a. m. , the first safety patrol (巡逻)—called The Team—went into action. Curtis Sliwa and his friend Don Chin began to cleanup crime on one of New York’s toughest subway lines, the Number 4 train. However, this was not a job for two, but a job for 13, so thirteen brave people walked into the last car of the Number 4 subway line in New York City—the “Mugger’s Express”. If they saw a danger of violence (暴力), they stopped it, using non-violent means. The group became known as the “Magnificent 13”.
The Magnificent 13 soon went from thirteen members to hundreds and they changed their name to the Guardian Angels Safety Patrol (GASP). At first, GASP faced opposition from the police, but they had the strong support of the public. Today, the Guardian Angels can be found all over the US. If you travel by subway, you will see them wearing red hats and white T-shirts. Although Guardian Angels are not armed, if they’re present, a criminal will think twice before committing a crime.
The Guardian Angels also train young people to join them in their fight against crime. They believe that if they train groups of volunteers to patrol dangerous areas in New York, the city will be safer for everybody. “If we had more volunteers, we would be able to reduce the problems many cities face: violence, crime, and drugs. ”
They have also started after-school training programs inside high schools and community centers. If young people visit the Guardian Angels Headquarters (总部), volunteers will talk to them about their work and will then guide them through the Times Square area. It’s fun. It’s safe and meaningful!
28. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The changes brought by the Magnificent 13.
B. The birth of the Guardian Angels Safety Patrol.
C. The subway lines that the Guardian Angels patrolled.
D. The reason why Curtis Sliwa wanted to stop subway crime.
29. What can we learn from the passage?
A. The police influenced the public’s opinions about GASP.
B. Volunteers play an active role in reducing crime in New York.
C. The Magnificent 13 put an end to crime on the Mugger’s Express.
D. The Guardian Angels sometimes turn to violence to keep passengers safe.
30. What can young people do at the Guardian Angels Headquarters?
A. Talk to the leader of GASP. B. Take part in training programs.
C. Carry out safety patrols with guides. D. Get educated about the Guardian Angels’work.
31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To publicize a social service group. B. To call attention to public safety concerns.
C. To introduce Curtis Sliwa’s great contributions. D. To present new ways to reduce crime in society.

Living near bars and fast-food restaurants could be harmful to heart health, according to a new research. These kinds of ready-to-eat food environments typically provide unhealthy foods and drinks, and have been related to cardiovascular diseases, such as heart failure, said Lu Qi, a head researcher at Tulane University in New Orleans.
Heart failure is a condition in which the heart can’t get enough blood to meet the body’s needs. This study is likely the first to evaluate (评估) the connection between food environment and heart failure with long-term observation. “Most previous researches on the relation between nutrition (营养) and human health have been focused on food quality, neglecting the impact of food environment,” Qi said. “Our present study highlights the importance of accounting for food environment in nutrition researches.”
Researchers evaluated the connection using data from more than 500,000 adults in the United Kingdom. They measured participants’ exposure (接触 ) to three types of food environments — bars, restaurants and fast-food restaurants. Exposure was determined ‘ by proximity (living within 1 kilometer) and density (the number of ready-to-eat food stores within 1 kilometer).
The study documented nearly 13,000 heart failure cases during a 12-year follow-up period and the results showed that participants with 10 or more ready-to-eat stores near their homes had a 16% greater risk of heart failure than those with no ready-to-eat food environments. Those closest to the bars(less than 500 meters) had a 14% higher risk than those who lived the farthest away (more than 3,000 meters).
The researchers noted the findings suggested that creating healthier food environments and improving physical fitness facilities, along with helping more people receive higher levels of education, could reduce the increased risk of heart failure linked to quick-meal options.
Overall, the study stresses the importance of improving food environments to prevent heart failure, and the researchers note that more studies are needed, particularly evaluating nutrition unsafety, to make sure of the applicability of this study’s results.
32. What does the underlined word “neglecting” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Questioning. B. Identifying. C. Considering. D. Ignoring.
33. How did the researchers get their research findings according to paragraph 4?
A. By making a comparison. B. By explaining a theory.
C. By showing an argument. D. By describing a process.
34. What is presented in paragraph 5?
A. Possible causes. B. Solving strategies.
C. Research results. D. People’s reactions.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Ways Food Is Cooked Really Count
B. Single Food Choices Lead to Nutritional Imbalance
C. Ready-to-eat Food Surroundings Could Harm Heart Health
D. Fast Food Is Increasingly Entering the Consumption Market
【答案】32. D 33. A 34. B 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文属于说明文。文章介绍了一项关于居住环境与心脏健康关系的科学研究成果,探讨了靠近酒吧和快餐店的生活环境如何可能对心脏健康产生负面影响。

词句猜测题。 由文章第二段中“Most previous researches on the relation between nutrition (营养) and human health have been focused on food quality (以前关于营养和人类健康关系的大多数研究都集中在食品质量上)”和“the impact of food environment (食物环境的影响)”可知,以前关于营养和人类健康关系的大多数研究都集中在食品质量上,此处应该表示“忽视了食品环境的影响”,neglecting意为“忽视”。A. Questioning提问;B. Identifying识别;C. Considering考虑;D. Ignoring忽略,忽视。故选D。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。 由文章第四段“The study documented nearly 13,000 heart failure cases during a 12-year follow-up period and the results showed that participants with 10 or more ready-to-eat stores near their homes had a 16% greater risk of heart failure than those with no ready-to-eat food environments. Those closest to the bars(less than 500 meters) had a 14% higher risk than those who lived the farthest away (more than 3,000 meters). (这项研究在12年的随访期间记录了近13000例心力衰竭病例,结果显示,在家附近有10家或更多即食食品商店的参与者患心力衰竭的风险比没有即食食品环境的参与者高16%。离酒吧最近(不到500米)的人比住得最远(超过3000米)的人患癌症的风险高14%。)”可知,研究人员通过比较不同参与者与不同类型食物环境的接近程度和密度来得出研究发现,这表明研究方法是通过对比来进行的。故选A。
【34题详解】
主旨大意题。 由文章第五段“The researchers noted the findings suggested that creating healthier food environments and improving physical fitness facilities, along with helping more people receive higher levels of education, could reduce the increased risk of heart failure linked to quick-meal options. (研究人员指出,研究结果表明,创造更健康的饮食环境,改善健身设施,以及帮助更多的人接受更高水平的教育,可以降低与快餐选择相关的心力衰竭风险。)”可知,第五段主要提出了可能的解决策略,包括改善食物环境、提升体育设施条件以及帮助更多人接受更高级别的教育。故选B。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。 通读全文,尤其是根据文章第一段“Living near bars and fast-food restaurants could be harmful to heart health, according to a new research. These kinds of ready-to-eat food environments typically provide unhealthy foods and drinks, and have been related to cardiovascular diseases, such as heart failure, said Lu Qi, a head researcher at Tulane University in New Orleans. (一项新研究表明,住在酒吧和快餐店附近可能对心脏健康有害。新奥尔良杜兰大学首席研究员陆奇说,这种即食食品环境通常提供不健康的食品和饮料,并与心力衰竭等心血管疾病有关。)”可知,文章主要介绍了居住在酒吧和快餐店附近可能对心脏健康有害的研究发现,强调了食物环境对心血管疾病如心力衰竭的影响。因此,最能概括全文的标题是C项“Ready-to-eat Food Surroundings Could Harm Heart Health (即食食品环境可能损害心脏健康)”。故选C。

I understand your feelings. You do need the support and love from your parents -- after all, you are still a teenager. But don’t be unhappy.
Try the following suggestions and see if they help. First, talk to your parents sincerely and tell them you are in need of their love, which can help you get rid of loneliness and stress.

36-year-old Mary was a single mother living in a small town in Cleveland, Ohio with her 3-year-old twin sons, Jack and James. She worked hard to provide for her children, doing a few part-time jobs to make ends meet. In spite of the challenges, Mary managed to give them a happy and stable childhood.
One Saturday morning, Mary was at home with her children, preparing breakfast for them. Jack was beside her while James was playing alone in the bedroom next to the kitchen. It was a typical weekend, filled with laughter and warmth. Little did they know something unexpected was just around the corner.
As Mary was busy with the food, a fire broke out in the kitchen. Panicked, Mary took hold of Jack and rushed towards the front door. They made it to safety only to find James remained stuck inside. Mary put Jack down and turned back to get James out, but in such a hurry and panic, she missed a step and fell on the ground. Her right ankle got sprained so seriously that she couldn`t stand up. Mary sat on the ground helplessly, her tears mixed with screams, “My kid is still in the house. Somebody, help me!”
At that very moment, Simon, 52, a former army soldier in the same community as Mary, happened to pass her house and saw the terrible scene. He immediately ran across the yard to ask the crying mother where her kid exactly was. In a shaking voice, Mary responded, “In the bedroom next to the kitchen.” The fire spread quickly and the house was filled with thick smoke. Simon looked around and saw a blanket hanging beside a pool full of water in the middle of the yard.

【答案】范文
Without hesitation, Simon took action. Dipping the blanket in the water pool and covering his head with it for necessary protection, he rushed into the house. Unable to see things clearly through the smoke and fire, Simon lowered himself to the ground, stretched his hands and felt his way forward until he reached the bedroom. Just then, a faint voice of a child caught his attention. Following the sound, he finally found James lying in a corner, frightened and helpless. He grabbed James, wrapped him in the blanket and made his way back towards the open door.
Simon rushed out of the burning house with James in his arms. Seeing James carried to safety, Mary breathed a sigh of relief. At that moment, firefighters arrived at the scene and put out the fire. Then Simon, Mary and her children were all sent to a nearby hospital, where they received timely medical care. Simon’s heroic act saved James’ life. Mary couldn’t thank him enough for his selflessness and bravery. But Simon said smilingly, “It was no big deal. I just did what I was supposed to do.” This experience brought the community closer, and Simon`s courageous act inspired others to consider what they would do in similar situations.
