Although he lived over 2,000 years ago, people still remember and respect him for his contribution (贡献) to the education today. Confucius lived in the Kingdom of Lu, which lies in Shandong Province. He lived during the Spring and Autumn Period. He had a hard childhood. His father died when he was only 3. His mother brought him up. As a child, he had to work to help his mother, but young Confucius didn’t give up studying. He visited many famous teachers and learned music, history, poetry and sports. Later, he became a teacher and started the first public school in Chinese history. At that time only children from noble families could go to school, but Confucius believed everyone should go to school if they wanted to learn. He had about 3,000 students in his lifetime. Today, people still follow Confucius’ lessons. He told us that we all have something worthy to be learned. “When I am with three people, one of them must be better than me in some areas. I choose their good qualities and follow them.” He also taught us that thinking is very important in study. “All study but no thinking makes people puzzled (困惑的). All thinking but no study makes people lazy.” Confucius is not only a great teacher, but also a famous thinker with wise thoughts about the world and society. His most important teachings are about kindness and good manners. “A person should be strict with himself, but be kind to others.” he said. 24. How did Confucius learn music, history, poetry and sports when he was a child? A. By teaching himself at home. B. With the help of his mother. C. By going to school. D. By visiting many famous teacher. 25. What’s the closest meaning to the underlined word “noble” in Paragraph 3? A. Poor B. Bright C. Rich D. Cute 26. What’s the correct order of the following statements? ①Confucius worked to help his mother as a child. ②Confucius educated about 3,000 students in his lifetime. ③Confucius’ father died. ④Confucius started the first public school in Chinese history. A. ③①④② B. ②③④① C. ①③②④ D. ④③①② C Progress means the act of going forward. Making any kind of progress can make us healthy and happy in life. By setting and actively working towards our goals, we can make progress in our life. Having confidence (信心) is helpful for us to make progress. Confidence comes from different places, such as proper education. Whatever happens, if we think positively, we can make more progress and become stronger. Slow progress is still progress. Just as the old saying goes, “It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.” Progress usually comes a lot more slowly than we expect. Even if progress is slow, try not to be worried. One important thing is that we keep taking steps towards our goals. The road to progress is not always smooth. Most progress often comes with setbacks along the way. Sometimes, maybe it feels like we’ re taking one step forward and three steps back, but it won’t always be like that. Keep going towards our goals and we can much more easily make the progress we want. Progress doesn’t always happen in a straight line. As long as we keep working, we will achieve higher levels. 27. What does progress make us do? A. Set lifelong goals. B. Go forward easily. C. Live healthily and happily. D. Think about new things. 28 What does the writer say about slow progress? A It often goes smoothly. B. It still means progress. C. It sometimes stops progress. D. It always gives us a clear mind. 29. What is the structure of the passage? A B. C. D. 30. Which can be a proper title for the text? A. Ideas about Making Progress B. Keys to Speeding up Progress C. Meanings of Having Confidence D. Suggestions on Relationships 阅读下面短文，从所给选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺，结构完整，其中有一项是多余选项。 Everyone is born with the ability to learn. But whether you can do this well depends on (取决于) your learning habits.

Luckily, here are several suggestions for you to make homework easy. Make a homework plan Most middle school students have two or three hours of homework a night. If it is a heavy homework day, you may need to spend even more time. It is a good idea to come up with some kind of homework schedule (进度表), especially if you are going to do sports or other activities after school. Watch where you work A bedroom, study or any room where you can get away from noise is good for you to do your homework. But don’t study on your comfortable bed, or you might fall asleep there. Take a break Most people’s attention (注意力) don’t last very long, so take some breaks while doing your homework. Sitting for too long without relaxing will make you less productive (多产的) than if you stop to take a break regularly. Taking a 15-minute break every hour is a good way for most people. Get help when you need it Sometimes even though you are listening carefully in class, some subjects seem too hard. The first person to ask for help is your teacher. He or she may be able to work with you before or after school and explain things more clearly. Your classmates may also be able to give you a hand. However, this might not give you the results you want. Lots of people understand something well but are not able to explain it. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 56. Why can’t we do homework on the comfortable bed? __________________________________________________ 57. How long can we take a rest after doing an hour of homework? __________________________________________________ 58.

Although he lived over 2,000 years ago, people still remember and respect him for his contribution (贡献) to the education today. Confucius lived in the Kingdom of Lu, which lies in Shandong Province. He lived during the Spring and Autumn Period. He had a hard childhood. His father died when he was only 3. His mother brought him up. As a child, he had to work to help his mother, but young Confucius didn’t give up studying. He visited many famous teachers and learned music, history, poetry and sports. Later, he became a teacher and started the first public school in Chinese history. At that time only children from noble families could go to school, but Confucius believed everyone should go to school if they wanted to learn. He had about 3,000 students in his lifetime. Today, people still follow Confucius’ lessons. He told us that we all have something worthy to be learned. “When I am with three people, one of them must be better than me in some areas. I choose their good qualities and follow them.” He also taught us that thinking is very important in study. “All study but no thinking makes people puzzled (困惑的). All thinking but no study makes people lazy.” Confucius is not only a great teacher, but also a famous thinker with wise thoughts about the world and society. His most important teachings are about kindness and good manners. “A person should be strict with himself, but be kind to others.” he said. 24.

Making any kind of progress can make us healthy and happy in life. By setting and actively working towards our goals, we can make progress in our life.

Even if progress is slow, try not to be worried. One important thing is that we keep taking steps towards our goals. The road to progress is not always smooth. Most progress often comes with setbacks along the way. Sometimes, maybe it feels like we’ re taking one step forward and three steps back, but it won’t always be like that. Keep going towards our goals and we can much more easily make the progress we want. Progress doesn’t always happen in a straight line. As long as we keep working, we will achieve higher levels. 27.
