Stressed. Anxious. Tired. This is how many employees feel at work because of stressors like longer work hours and the need to do more with fewer resources. Such work stress has been shown to bring about anxiety and anger, and damage personal performance. Typically, there are two ways people try to deal with this stress. One is to simply power through — to focus on getting the stressful work done. The other common strategy is to back down — to temporarily (暂时地) disconnect from work and get away from the stressful environment.
Unfortunately, both “pushing through” and “getting away” have potential (潜在的) risk. Researches have long believed that we humans have limits in dealing with heavy workloads, which restrict our ability to always go all out. Continuing to make great efforts while stressed will simply tax us and lead to tiredness and damaged performance. While putting off the work can provide temporary relief, it does not address the real problems that cause stress in the first place. When we return from a break, we are not only faced with the same problems, but we may also experience additional guilt and anxiety.
So what else can employees do to weaken the ill effects of stress? Researchers suggest a third option: focusing on learning. It means gathering new information, picking up a new skill, or seeking out mental challenges. Researchers found learning equips us with new abilities to address or even prevent future stressors. Additionally, taking time to reflect on what we know and learn new things helps us develop a sense of achievement. Plus, learning also helps connect us to a purpose of growth and development.
What specifically can you do to increase learning when faced with stress at work? First, start from the inner heart. Practice viewing stressful work as challenges in your mind. It shifts your mindset and better prepares you to approach the task. Second, work and learn with others. Getting out and discussing a stressor with your peers and co-workers might have a deeper understanding. Third, shape learning activities as a new form of “work break” from your routine tasks at work.
24. According to paragraph 2, which of the following is the author in favor of?
A. Our ability to power through can be limitless.
B. The problems will disappear after we have a break.
C. Putting off the stressful work will relieve our anxiety.
D. Forcing ourselves to work when we’re stressed does harm.
25. How many advantages of learning are mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
26. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To inform the benefits of learning.
B. To guide us what to do to prevent stress.
C. To warn us stress has bad effects on humans.
D. To recommend a new option to handle stress.
27. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. More Breaks, Less Stress B. More Learning, Less Stress
C. More Efforts, Better Performance D. More Learning, More Achievements
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. D 27. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了工作压力的影响及通过学习来缓解压力的有效方法。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Continuing to make great efforts while stressed will simply tax us and lead to tiredness and damaged performance.(继续在压力下努力只会消耗我们的精力,导致疲劳和表现受损)”可推知,作者认为强迫自己在压力下工作是有害的。故选D。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Researchers found learning equips us with new abilities to address or even prevent future stressors. Additionally, taking time to reflect on what we know and learn new things helps us develop a sense of achievement. Plus, learning also helps connect us to a purpose of growth and development.(研究发现,学习使我们具备新的能力来应对甚至预防未来的压力源。此外,花时间反思我们已知的知识并学习新事物有助于我们培养成就感。而且,学习还能帮助我们与成长和发展的目标建立联系)”可知,学习有三个优点:为我们提供应对或预防未来压力的新能力;帮助我们获得成就感;帮助我们与成长和发展的目标相联系。故选C。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章内容及最后一段“What specifically can you do to increase learning when faced with stress at work? First, start from the inner heart. Practice viewing stressful work as challenges in your mind. It shifts your mindset and better prepares you to approach the task. Second, work and learn with others. Getting out and discussing a stressor with your peers and co-workers might have a deeper understanding. Third, shape learning activities as a new form of “work break” from your routine tasks at work.(当你面对工作压力时,你能做些什么来提高学习效率呢?首先,从内心开始。练习把有压力的工作看成是你头脑中的挑战。它会改变你的思维方式,让你更好地准备好去完成任务。第二,与他人一起工作和学习。走出去和你的同伴和同事讨论压力源可能会有更深的理解。第三,将学习活动作为日常工作任务之外的一种新形式的“工作休息”)”可知,作者首先介绍了工作压力对员工的影响,然后指出传统的应对压力的方法存在潜在风险,接着提出了一个新的应对压力的方法——学习,最后一段给出了在面对工作压力时如何增加学习的具体建议。因此,作者的目的是推荐一个新的应对压力的方法。故选D。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容可知,文章主要提出了一个新的应对压力的方法——关注学习。因此,最好的标题应该是与应对压力和加强学习相关的。选项B“More Learning, Less Stress(多学习,少压力)”准确地概括了文章的主旨,最适合作为文章的标题。故选B。
C
Math is everywhere in our life, from working out the bill after dinner to your personal costs. While some people enjoy solving math problems, many others are afraid of the moment when they have to deal with numbers and feel really anxious. It might seem discouraging, but this “math anxiety” is quite common, and you’re far from being the only one who feels this way. Besides, our worries and fears don’t always show how able we are.
The reason for this problem often begins to appear in our childhood at school. Studies have shown that math teachers who feel nervous about teaching the subject can pass their anxiety to their students, and girls might be more affected by this anxiety. According to the Program for International Student Assessment, around 31% of 15 and 16-year-olds in 34 countries said that they felt very nervous when solving math problems, 33% said they got nervous doing math homework, and nearly60% worried that math classes would be difficult. Shulamit Kahn, from Boston University’s Questrom School of Business, told the BBC that providing students, especially girls, with good role models “is important, especially at a young age.” She believes the key is to have people, especially women who love teaching math, educate younger kids.
David Robson, writing for BBC Future, mentioned, “It’s unclear why math causes so much fear compared to other subjects like geography. But knowing there’s a right or wrong answer might make you more anxious about not doing well.”
And if we believe that we’re not “math people”, we may question about ourselves and avoid solving problems that we could deal with.
Researchers have been trying to work out why mental math can make us nervous. This fear might come from all kinds of sources, but some suggest that openly expressing your fears can weaken their control on you and encourage children to see math tests as challenges rather than threat (威胁). We need to have a positive view on math and give it another try.
28. What’s the main idea of paragraph 2?
A. Girls are better at math than boys.
B. Math classes are difficult for everyone.
C. Students’ anxiety only comes from teachers.
D. Math anxiety in childhood affect students’ confidence.
29. What might happen if someone believes they’re not a “math person”?
A. They will study math harder. B. They will doubt their abilities.
C. They will face challenges bravely. D. They won’t see math as a threat.
30. According to the last paragraph, what are children advised to do?
A. Find the reasons of math fear positively.
B. Give up challenges to avoid anxiety actively.
C. Speak out their fears for improvement bravely.
D. Examine the reasons for math failure carefully.
31. What might be the best title of the passage?
A. Math Anxiety: How to Fix It?
B. Math Application: How to use Math?
C. Math Learning: The Key to Success in All Fields.
D. Math Competition: Race between Boys and Girls.
【答案】28. D 29. B 30. C 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。许多人有“数学焦虑症”,文章主要分析了其原因以及给出了一些建议。
【28题详解】

Shulamit Kahn, from Boston University’s Questrom School of Business, told the BBC that providing students, especially girls, with good role models “is important, especially at a young age.” She believes the key is to have people, especially women who love teaching math, educate younger kids.(这个问题的原因往往开始出现在我们的童年在学校。研究表明,在教学过程中感到紧张的数学老师会把他们的焦虑传递给学生,而女孩可能更容易受到这种焦虑的影响。根据国际学生评估项目的数据,在34个国家中,约有31%的15岁和16岁的学生表示,他们在解决数学问题时感到非常紧张,33%的人表示他们在做数学作业时感到紧张,近60%的人担心数学课会很难。波士顿大学奎斯特罗姆商学院的舒拉米特·卡恩告诉BBC,为学生,尤其是女孩,提供好的榜样“很重要,尤其是在年轻的时候。”她认为,关键是让人们,尤其是那些热爱数学教学的女性,来教育年幼的孩子。)”可知,第二段的主旨是童年数学焦虑影响学生的自信心。故选D。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“And if we believe that we’re not “math people”, we may question about ourselves and avoid solving problems that we could deal with.(如果我们认为我们不是“数学人”,我们可能会质疑自己,避免解决我们可以处理的问题。)”可知,如果有人认为自己不是“数学人”,他们会怀疑自己的能力。故选B。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“This fear might come from all kinds of sources, but some suggest that openly expressing your fears can weaken their control on you and encourage children to see math tests as challenges rather than threat (威胁).(这种恐惧可能来自各种各样的来源,但有些人认为,公开表达你的恐惧可以削弱他们对你的控制,并鼓励孩子将数学考试视为挑战而不是威胁。)”可知,建议孩子们勇敢地说出他们对改进的担忧。故选C。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“While some people enjoy solving math problems, many others are afraid of the moment when they have to deal with numbers and feel really anxious.

Besides, our worries and fears don’t always show how able we are.(虽然有些人喜欢解决数学问题,但许多人害怕处理数字的那一刻,感到非常焦虑。这可能看起来令人沮丧,但这种“数学焦虑”很常见,你并不是唯一一个有这种感觉的人。此外,我们的担忧和恐惧并不总是表明我们有多能干。)”可知,文章主要说明了许多人有“数学焦虑症”,并分析了其原因以及给出了一些建议。由此可知,A选项“数学焦虑:如何解决?”最符合文章标题。故选A。
D
At St. Francis High School, there’s something to be said about math teacher Jim Connor.
Truth is, Connor can be a bit boring. But the 70-year-old Vietnam vet says he’s not here to entertain his students. “It drives me crazy when people say school should be fun,” he says. “I mean, it’s nice if it could be, but you can’t make school fun.”
And for years, the kids thought that’s all there was to him - until last November, when senior Pat McGoldrick learned they didn’t know the half of him.
Pat was in charge of a student blood drive and had just come to Children’s Hospital Los Angeles for a meeting. And he says it was strange: whenever he told someone he went to St. Francis High School, they all said, “Oh, you must know Jim Connor. Isn’t he wonderful?”
“It was disbelief, really,” Pat says. “It was almost kind of finding this alter ego (另一面) that he has.” Inside the blood donor center, Pat found a board listing all the top blood donors, including the record holder, Jim Connor. Then he learned something even more unbelievable: whenever Connor isn’t torturing kids with Calculus (微积分), he’s taking care of sick babies. Three days a week for the past 20 years, Jim has volunteered to hold, feed and comfort children.
“They tend to calm for him,” Nurse Erin says. “They tend to relax with him. They fall asleep with him.”
Connor has never been married; he has no kids of his own. But he has fallen hard for these babies.
“I’ve always respected him, but now it’s to an even different degree - really to the point where I try to be him,” Pat says.
32. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us?
A. Connor thinks education is for all. B. Connor takes school seriously.
C. Students drive Connor crazy. D. School can never be fun.
33. What did Pat find out about Mr Connor?
A. He used to be a very strict teacher. B. He donated blood as well as his time.
C. He had a unique teaching philosophy. D. He was awarded for his love toward babies.
34. Which can be inferred about Mr Connor?
A. He is changeable. B. He fails to have his own kids.
C. He works long hours for a living. D. He has the ability to connect with kids.
35. What message does the author seem to convey in the text?
A. A tough teacher has a soft heart. B. Bonding with babies is important.
C. Everybody keeps something under his hat. D. A real lesson can be learned through Calculus.
【答案】32. B 33. B 34. D 35. A
【解析】

We all understand how important it is to keep a healthy lifestyle through proper diet and rest ___36___. The role that sports play in our physical health is equally important and cannot be overlooked. That’s why we’ve gathered some necessary tips to help you make the most of sports for your physical health.
___37___ Different sports work on different aspects of your body. For example, running makes your heart stronger and increases lung capacity (肺活量). Swimming, on the other hand, not only promotes your overall strength but also exercises muscle groups. By diversifying your sports activities, you can ensure that all parts of your body get the workout they need.

【36题详解】
根据上文“We all understand how important it is to keep a healthy lifestyle through proper diet and rest.(我们都知道通过适当的饮食和休息来保持健康的生活方式是多么重要)”以及后文“The role that sports play in our physical health is equally important and cannot be overlooked. That’s why we’ve gathered some necessary tips to help you make the most of sports for your physical health.(运动在我们的身体健康中所起的作用同样重要,不容忽视。这就是为什么我们收集了一些必要的建议来帮助你充分利用运动来保持身体健康)”可知,本句与上文构成转折,引出运动对身体健康的重要性。故G选项“但是你知道运动对你的身体健康有重要的影响吗?”符合语境,故选G。
【37题详解】
根据本段内容“Different sports work on different aspects of your body. For example, running makes your heart stronger and increases lung capacity (肺活量). Swimming, on the other hand, not only promotes your overall strength but also exercises muscle groups. By diversifying your sports activities, you can ensure that all parts of your body get the workout they need.(不同的运动对你身体的不同方面都有作用。例如,跑步使你的心脏更强壮,增加肺活量。另一方面,游泳不仅能增强你的整体力量,还能锻炼肌肉群。通过多样化的体育活动,你可以确保你身体的各个部位都得到他们需要的锻炼)”可知,本段主要列举了各种运动,强调运动要有多样性,故C选项“参加各种体育运动,充分锻炼身体”符合语境,故选C。
【38题详解】
根据后文“If you feel excessive pain or tiredness in your body during exercise, it’s time to take a break or change your exercise.(如果你在运动过程中感到身体过度疼痛或疲劳,是时候休息一下或改变运动方式了)”可知,后文提到感到身体过度疼痛或疲劳就要休息,说明要注意身体发出的信号。故A选项“倾听你身体的信号”符合语境,故选A。
【39题详解】
根据后文“In running, a good pair of running shoes with proper support is necessary to protect your feet and joints from excessive impact. When cycling, a well-fitted helmet can safeguard your head in case of accidents.(跑步时,一双有适当支撑力的好跑鞋是保护你的脚和关节免受过度冲击的必要条件。骑车时,一个合适的头盔可以保护你的头部,以防发生意外)”可知,后文主要强调了运动设备的保护作用。故F选项“正确的装备可以在体育活动中提供保护”符合语境,故选F。
【40题详解】
根据上文“Use your sports activities to reduce stress and improve your mental state while taking care of your physical health. You can notice how you feel after a good workout session, whether it’s a sense of relaxation or increased energy.(利用你的体育活动来减轻压力,改善你的精神状态,同时照顾你的身体健康。你可以注意到你在一次良好的锻炼后的感觉,无论是放松的感觉还是增加的能量)”可知,运动非常有益,本句与上文构成因果关系,建议参与运动中。故D选项“所以,让运动成为你生活的一部分,享受这些美好”符合语境,故选D。

As is known to all, many kinds of wild animals have died out and lots of others are becoming endangered. It’s urgent for us to take action to protect them. If nothing is done, we may find ourselves alone on the earth one day.
Wild animals are endangered for various reasons. Firstly, many animals are dying out because of air or water pollution. Secondly, the forests where wild animals live are being destroyed. As a result, a lot of animals are losing their habitats. Besides, too much hunting also causes the disappearance of certain species of wild animals.
From my point of view, our government should keep people from destroying forests and close down the factories which pollute rivers and air. Meanwhile, more wildlife reserves should be set up.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Some researchers think there might be a connection between UFOs and angel sightings. They say the angels and heavenly figures might actually have been extraterrestrials(外星人)。
After his experience in the 1980s with "the most beautiful thing" he ever saw, Lewis might agree with that assessment.
It was a Saturday morning in Mariposa, California, and Lewis had to work that day. The air was fresh from a cool rain the night before, and the morning sky was bright with a few scattered clouds.
"I was heading out to my car in the back parking lot of the apartment complex where I lived when I noticed someone kneeling next to my car," Lewis says. "This person saw me and quickly stood up holding a crowbar(撬棍),"
The young man was quite obviously astonished by Lewis's interruption, and although Lewis sensed the boy was up to no good, it hadn't yet hit him what he was doing. Then Lewis looked through the passenger window of his car and saw that the steering wheel column had been stripped(脱去)of its cover. He realized that the young man was trying to steal his car.
"I asked him what he was doing," Lewis recalls, "He gave me a lame story about his friend's car being stolen last night and that my car looked like his friend's and so on. I didn't want to hear it. I told him I was going to call the police, which I did on my cell phone."
Lewis dialed 911 and gave the dispatcher(调度员)the address. He told the would-be thief that the police were on their way and warned him not to leave. "If he did, I wasn't going to try to stop him because he had that crowbar," Lewis says.
As Lewis was questioning the young man, trying to detain(扣留)him, he began to notice three rather large clouds in a single-file formation that were almost overhead.
"Then I saw it," he says."A shiny object exited from the first cloud and entered the next and then came out of that one. It was shiny, like brightly polished objects, moving at a good speed. I couldn't make out the shape."
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请在答题卡的相应位置作答。
By this time, Lewis was so distracted by the UFO.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
"As it sailed overhead, some of the arms and legs would move up and down, giving the impression of being alive!"
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
By this time, Lewis was so distracted by the UFO. That's when the object entered the last cloud. From there it was nothing but open sky. "When it appeared, my life changed," Lewis says. "There against the richness of the blue sky was a silvery shape that seemed to have arms and legs! It was so beautiful to look at. At the same time,it had the appearance of metal. It looked like some kind of ship with a strange design. The best way I could describe it is that it looked like a silver tool in the design of the stickman children draw. It was huge, moving fast and made no noise.
"As it sailed overhead, some of the arms and legs would move up and down, giving the impression of being alive!" He says. " It made a couple of rolls, reflecting the sun in every direction-just beautiful! Slowly it landed on the land. I imagined extraterrestrials would come out, but that didn't happen. Then it began to rise and move farther and farther away. As it started to fade away from my view, I found myself short of breath and with tears running down my cheeks. It had that much of an effect on me. I began thinking maybe that's what an angel looks like."

Stressed. Anxious. Tired. This is how many employees feel at work because of stressors like longer work hours and the need to do more with fewer resources. Such work stress has been shown to bring about anxiety and anger, and damage personal performance. Typically, there are two ways people try to deal with this stress. One is to simply power through — to focus on getting the stressful work done. The other common strategy is to back down — to temporarily (暂时地) disconnect from work and get away from the stressful environment.
Unfortunately, both “pushing through” and “getting away” have potential (潜在的) risk. Researches have long believed that we humans have limits in dealing with heavy workloads, which restrict our ability to always go all out. Continuing to make great efforts while stressed will simply tax us and lead to tiredness and damaged performance. While putting off the work can provide temporary relief, it does not address the real problems that cause stress in the first place. When we return from a break, we are not only faced with the same problems, but we may also experience additional guilt and anxiety.
So what else can employees do to weaken the ill effects of stress? Researchers suggest a third option: focusing on learning. It means gathering new information, picking up a new skill, or seeking out mental challenges. Researchers found learning equips us with new abilities to address or even prevent future stressors. Additionally, taking time to reflect on what we know and learn new things helps us develop a sense of achievement. Plus, learning also helps connect us to a purpose of growth and development.
What specifically can you do to increase learning when faced with stress at work? First, start from the inner heart. Practice viewing stressful work as challenges in your mind. It shifts your mindset and better prepares you to approach the task. Second, work and learn with others. Getting out and discussing a stressor with your peers and co-workers might have a deeper understanding. Third, shape learning activities as a new form of “work break” from your routine tasks at work.
24. According to paragraph 2, which of the following is the author in favor of?
A. Our ability to power through can be limitless.
B. The problems will disappear after we have a break.
C Putting off the stressful work will relieve our anxiety.
D. Forcing ourselves to work when we’re stressed does harm.
25. How many advantages of learning are mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
26. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To inform the benefits of learning.
B. To guide us what to do to prevent stress.
C. To warn us stress has bad effects on humans.
D. To recommend a new option to handle stress.
27. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. More Breaks, Less Stress B. More Learning, Less Stress
C. More Efforts, Better Performance D. More Learning, More Achievements
C
Math is everywhere in our life, from working out the bill after dinner to your personal costs. While some people enjoy solving math problems, many others are afraid of the moment when they have to deal with numbers and feel really anxious. It might seem discouraging, but this “math anxiety” is quite common, and you’re far from being the only one who feels this way. Besides, our worries and fears don’t always show how able we are.
The reason for this problem often begins to appear in our childhood at school. Studies have shown that math teachers who feel nervous about teaching the subject can pass their anxiety to their students, and girls might be more affected by this anxiety. According to the Program for International Student Assessment, around 31% of 15 and 16-year-olds in 34 countries said that they felt very nervous when solving math problems, 33% said they got nervous doing math homework, and nearly60% worried that math classes would be difficult. Shulamit Kahn, from Boston University’s Questrom School of Business, told the BBC that providing students, especially girls, with good role models “is important, especially at a young age.” She believes the key is to have people, especially women who love teaching math, educate younger kids.
David Robson, writing for BBC Future, mentioned, “It’s unclear why math causes so much fear compared to other subjects like geography. But knowing there’s a right or wrong answer might make you more anxious about not doing well.”
And if we believe that we’re not “math people”, we may question about ourselves and avoid solving problems that we could deal with.
Researchers have been trying to work out why mental math can make us nervous. This fear might come from all kinds of sources, but some suggest that openly expressing your fears can weaken their control on you and encourage children to see math tests as challenges rather than threat (威胁). We need to have a positive view on math and give it another try.
28. What’s the main idea of paragraph 2?
A. Girls are better at math than boys.
B. Math classes are difficult for everyone.
C. Students’ anxiety only comes from teachers.
D. Math anxiety in childhood affect students’ confidence.
29. What might happen if someone believes they’re not a “math person”?
A. They will study math harder. B. They will doubt their abilities.
C. They will face challenges bravely. D. They won’t see math as a threat.
30. According to the last paragraph, what are children advised to do?
A. Find the reasons of math fear positively.
B. Give up challenges to avoid anxiety actively.
C. Speak out their fears for improvement bravely.
D. Examine the reasons for math failure carefully.
31. What might be the best title of the passage?
A. Math Anxiety: How to Fix It?
B. Math Application: How to use Math?
C. Math Learning: The Key to Success in All Fields.
D. Math Competition: Race between Boys and Girls.
D
At St. Francis High School, there’s something to be said about math teacher Jim Connor.
Truth is, Connor can be a bit boring. But the 70-year-old Vietnam vet says he’s not here to entertain his students. “It drives me crazy when people say school should be fun,” he says. “I mean, it’s nice if it could be, but you can’t make school fun.”
And for years, the kids thought that’s all there was to him - until last November, when senior Pat McGoldrick learned they didn’t know the half of him.
Pat was in charge of a student blood drive and had just come to Children’s Hospital Los Angeles for a meeting. And he says it was strange: whenever he told someone he went to St. Francis High School, they all said, “Oh, you must know Jim Connor. Isn’t he wonderful?”
“It was disbelief, really,” Pat says. “It was almost kind of finding this alter ego (另一面) that he has.” Inside the blood donor center, Pat found a board listing all the top blood donors, including the record holder, Jim Connor. Then he learned something even more unbelievable: whenever Connor isn’t torturing kids with Calculus (微积分), he’s taking care of sick babies. Three days a week for the past 20 years, Jim has volunteered to hold, feed and comfort children.
“They tend to calm for him,” Nurse Erin says. “They tend to relax with him. They fall asleep with him.”
Connor has never been married; he has no kids of his own. But he has fallen hard for these babies.
“I’ve always respected him, but now it’s to an even different degree - really to the point where I try to be him,” Pat says.
32. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us?
A. Connor thinks education is for all. B. Connor takes school seriously.
C. Students drive Connor crazy. D. School can never be fun.
33. What did Pat find out about Mr Connor?
A. He used to be a very strict teacher. B. He donated blood as well as his time.
C. He had a unique teaching philosophy. D. He was awarded for his love toward babies.
34. Which can be inferred about Mr Connor?
A. He is changeable. B. He fails to have his own kids.
C. He works long hours for a living. D. He has the ability to connect with kids.
35. What message does the author seem to convey in the text?
A. A tough teacher has a soft heart. B. Bonding with babies is important.
C. Everybody keeps something under his hat. D. A real lesson can be learned through Calculus.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Some researchers think there might be a connection between UFOs and angel sightings. They say the angels and heavenly figures might actually have been extraterrestrials(外星人)。
After his experience in the 1980s with "the most beautiful thing" he ever saw, Lewis might agree with that assessment.
It was a Saturday morning in Mariposa, California, and Lewis had to work that day. The air was fresh from a cool rain the night before, and the morning sky was bright with a few scattered clouds.
"I was heading out to my car in the back parking lot of the apartment complex where I lived when I noticed someone kneeling next to my car," Lewis says. "This person saw me and quickly stood up holding a crowbar(撬棍),"
The young man was quite obviously astonished by Lewis's interruption, and although Lewis sensed the boy was up to no good, it hadn't yet hit him what he was doing. Then Lewis looked through the passenger window of his car and saw that the steering wheel column had been stripped(脱去)of its cover. He realized that the young man was trying to steal his car.
"I asked him what he was doing," Lewis recalls, "He gave me a lame story about his friend's car being stolen last night and that my car looked like his friend's and so on. I didn't want to hear it. I told him I was going to call the police, which I did on my cell phone."
Lewis dialed 911 and gave the dispatcher(调度员)the address. He told the would-be thief that the police were on their way and warned him not to leave. "If he did, I wasn't going to try to stop him because he had that crowbar," Lewis says.
As Lewis was questioning the young man, trying to detain(扣留)him, he began to notice three rather large clouds in a single-file formation that were almost overhead.
"Then I saw it," he says."A shiny object exited from the first cloud and entered the next and then came out of that one. It was shiny, like brightly polished objects, moving at a good speed. I couldn't make out the shape."
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请在答题卡的相应位置作答。
By this time, Lewis was so distracted by the UFO.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
"As it sailed overhead, some of the arms and legs would move up and down, giving the impression of being alive!"
