What does it take to graduate from university? Some papers or high scores in exams? Well, these are not
enough if you are a student at Tsinghua University.According to a new rule of the university, students must
prove themselves in the swimming pool. They need to pass a swimming test of at least 50 meters, and those
who fail the test will be required to take a swimming course throughout their school years. By the time they
graduate, they will have known how to swim; otherwise they can’t graduate with their bachelor’s degrees(学
士学位).
The news made waves in Chinese social media. Some people praised the university for requiring a
necessary skill that can save lives, and they also believed that the rule would help improve students’ health.
However, others questioned if it was fair to expect those who come from inland cities to be able to swim.In
fact, this is not a new rule. Tsinghua University first made swimming a requirement in 1919 but later gave it
up because the number of students became too large and there were not enough swimming pools in the school
for them to learn swimming.
Anyway, it is still good news that Chinese students’ health has become more and more valued. Why not
just take this chance to learn one more life-saving ability?
24. According to the passage, what does it take for a student to graduate from Tsinghua university?
A. Some papers . B. High scores in exams
C. Passing a swimming test. D. All of the above.
25 The underlined phrase "made waves" in Paragraph 3 most probably means _________.
A. caused a heated discussion B. spread widely C. made a requirement D. proved the rule
26 Why did Tsinghua University once give up the rule?
1 Because many students failed the swimming test.
2 Because some people disagreed with the rule.
③ Because there were too many students.

④Because there were not enough swimming pools.

27 What is the passage mainly about?
A. Different people hold different opinions about a new rule.
B. Tsinghua University has made a new rule of graduation.
C. Chinese students’ health should be more and more valued.
D .There is a new chance to learn another life-saving ability.

The first time I used the TV to distract (使分散注意力) my daughter, I felt like a bad parent; I convinced
myself I was a “bad” mom. However, these days I believe the opposite to be true. Screen(屏幕) time makes
me a better mom.
Now I know what most of you might be thinking: That’s ridiculous. Only crappy(糟糕的) parents rely
on the screen to care for their kids. Then again, experts suggest parents limit media use. And while I do not
doubt experts, there are things they fail to consider.
Like most 6-year-olds, my daughter gets worked up and excited easily and watching a cartoon gives her
a chance to shut off her mind. And there are other reasons— more selfish reasons. I am a work-from-work
mom, and giving her screen time gives me “me” time. I’m able to write while she watches TV. And while this
may sound bad, I believe I am helping my daughter realize she should rely on herself. When Mommy works,
she gets her own snacks, drinks and toys.
There are other benefits, too. TV has also taught my daughter. Thanks to “super Why”, she knew her
alphabet at age 2, and thanks to “Sesame Street”, she was able to count to 20 by age 3. Also I use the screen
as a great incentive. My daughter earns “IPad time” when she completes tasks, e.g , making her bed earns 15
minutes while doing her homework gets her 30 minutes.
Of course, I have a few rules. During meals, the TV is off; all programs must be supervised; on weekdays,
she is limited to two hours maximum. So remember: It doesn’t matter what our kids watch; it matters what
they do, what they say, what they feel and how they act, and only you know what is best for them.
28.What can be learned about the author’s opinion about screen time?
A.It fails to take kids into consideration.
B.It is welcome by most crappy parents.
C.It challenges a popular belief.
D.It corresponds with experts.
29.How can screen time be good for kids of mothers working at home?
A.It gives them topics to discuss with friends.
B.It gives them some easy time.
C.It enables them to keep their spirits up.
D.It helps them become independent.
30.What does the underlined word “incentive” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.encouragement B.relaxation C.idea producer D.learning tool
31.Which of the following might the author agree with?
A.Science and technology are primary strength.
B.Aman is good-for-nothing until he is educated.
C.Nothing can be acquired without rules.
D.Each coin has two sides.
D
It was rush hours in the morning. Heather Sant, 36, was driving her white 2012 Mazda on the road with
her nine-year-old daughter and ten-year-old son in the back. Suddenly, a red pickup truck cut them off. Sant
turned the wheel hard to the right, sending the Mazda sliding off the road and down an embankment(路堤)
that ended in a drop-off after about 50 feet. If the car didn’t stop, it would take off and dive into the road some
20 feet below. Then a bit of luck: as the car raced toward the edge, its undercarriage got stuck, stopping it
suddenly.
The people inside, however, were far from safe. The car had come to rest on top of a retaining wall(护
墙), balancing on the edge of disaster. One sudden move by anyone inside could throw the car off balance
and send it over. Jacob Rodriguez watched everything in terror from the nearby truck company where he
works. As an experienced sailor, just like every time he met shipwreck, he whispered a sailing saying “Ship,
shipmates, self”. Then immediately he and four other men ran to the car. They leaped onto the trunk(后备箱)
to balance the weight as the terrified kids in the back seat watched.
Meanwhile, Julio and his nephew Marco, were driving to their jobs at nearby Premier Automotive. Julio
第 4 页 共 6 页
jumped out of the car to help while Marco went to the shop, grabbed a strong rope, and returned to the car. He
tied the Mazda to an F-350 truck that had been driven over by one of the other rescuers. With the car secured,
the group carefully opened the back doors and helped the children out. But their leaving changed the cars’
weight, causing it to tip forward. The men, still on the trunk, begged Sant to jump into the back seat. She did
and then inched out of the back door. Finally, the men carefully got off the trunk. Everyone was safe.
“Another foot,” Rodriguez told USA Today, “and this would be a different story.”
32.What most probably caused the traffic accident?
A.The Mazda was overloaded. B.Sant was really speeding.
C.The wheel failed to work. D.A pickup truck cut in suddenly.
33.Why did the men ask Sant to move to the back seat?
A.To open the back door of the car. B.To fasten the rope to the truck.
C.To keep the balance of the car. D.To help the men get off the trunk.
34.What does Rodriguez want to stress in the last paragraph?
A.The timely help offered by rescuers.
B.The excellent cooperation of the children.
C.The dangerous position where the car stopped.
D.The serious danger the rescuers faced.
35.Which of the following statements agrees with the theme of the passage?
A.One in trouble, all to help. B.Hold your horses.
C.Well begun, half done. D.Don’t jump in with both feet.

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Do you know the reason why we feel tired in the middle of a class? Maybe you would say it is because
the teacher’s class is boring. 36. Perhaps this is something you have not paid enough attention to or not yet
noticed.
Purpose of sleep
37. Sleep helps our body heal(修复), grow, and stay healthy. It also gives us energy, so we can be
active all day. Doctors and health scientists say: When you close your eyes and need to rest, sleep is just the
very best! This is more than advice.
Sleep time
Enough sleep is important to us. How much sleep do we need? New-born babies sleep most of the time.
They can sleep 20—22 hours a day. Children need 10—12 hours of sleep a day. Teenagers need 8—10 hours
of sleep a day because they need lots of energy to grow into their adult(成人的)bodies. Grown-ups usually
need 6—8 hours of sleep to keep active. 38. That is why old people sleep less than young people.
Interesting facts
Almost everyone has their dreams while they sleep, but not all of them can tell their dreams clearly when
they wake up. 39. More surprisingly, some may even get up in their dreams and walk around. This is called
“sleepwalking”. Are you a sleepwalker? Or, is there a sleepwalker around you?
40.
It’s not just people that love to snooze(打盹). In fact, many animals have unusual or surprising sleeping
habits. Some animals, such as bears and hedgehogs, sleep all through winter. The swift is a very fast bird that
can sleep while it flies! Cute koalas sleep around 18 hours a day. Giraffes don’t need much sleep at all. They
usually sleep standing up.
A.Sleepy animals
B.Why do we need sleep?
C.Some people talk in their dreams.
第 5 页 共 6 页
D.However, the real reason is probably that we don’t have enough sleep.
E. The older you get, the less sleep you will need.
F. Some people never dream while they sleep.
G. Clever animals

短文,词数为 150左右。
Last weekend, I went to Mark's new house nearby a forest for a little get-together. After lunch when I
was chatting with him and his wife Cody,he asked me, "Hey Thoran, have you ever been to a secret spot? "
Before I could even finish saying no, Cody and Mark were already at the door with their jackets on. And the
next moment we were heading out into the forest with a camera, a fishing net and a plastic bucket(桶).
We walked through the forest along a path by a small river. Breathing the fresh air,we three talked and
laughed all the way.
" Hey! What are you guys doing?" Someone suddenly shouted from behind. Mark and Cody's eyes
immediately widened, and without a word they started running. I had no choice but to follow them, getting
my shoes wet and dirty with mud. We probably ran for about 10 minutes before Mark and Cody slowed down.
I stopped to catch my breath and asked, "Who was that?"
Mark replied, "The most annoying neighbor ever. If he caught up with us, there's no telling what could
happen. He is always making fun of us. I dislike him." We kept walking on for a few more minutes. Then a
beautiful lake appeared before our eyes. "Wow! Amazing!" I shouted and could hardly hold back my
excitement. The lake was large and the water was deep and blue,looking so peaceful with tall trees around it.
