三、完形填空
Alexander Graham Bell is often thought to be the “father of the telephone”. However, there were many other scientists, like Elisha Gray and Antonio Meucci, who also developed a talking telegraph (通话电报机). It is not a simple thing to 1 who is the “father” of something. The name often goes to the scientist of the most useful work, not to the one with the 2 idea. This is exactly what happened to the telephone.
There has been a 3 about who really developed the telephone. People have written articles and books about the subject. It is known that Bell got the patent (专利) for designing the telephone in 1876. He was the first to get the patent but he was not the first to think of the 4 of a telephone. Antonio Meucci, an Italian scientist, 5 building a talking telegraph in 1849. In 1871, he got a document that could prove he designed the machine. In later years, because of some 6 , Meucci couldn’t get a new document. His name in the history of the 7 was then forgotten until his work was honoured (受到表彰) again on June 11, 2002.
Some studies on the patent application (申请) for the telephone have made things even more 8 . Researchers say that Elisha Gray, a(n) 9 at Oberlin College, and Bell applied for the patent on the telephone on the same day. These gentlemen didn’t actually 10 the Patent Office—their lawyers (律师) did. Researchers find in records that Bell’s lawyer went to the office 11 . The date was February 14, 1876. He was the fifth to get into the office that day and Gray’s lawyer was the 39th. As a result, Bell got the patent and Gray’s work was not honoured. 12 , many people don’t believe this story. They think that there had to be some 13 or unfair actions by people working at the Patent Office, and 14 even by Bell himself.
This long discussion is 15 not coming to its end. But this question may not matter at all. After all, we could live in a very different world without any of the three scientists’ great work.
1.A.think B.decide C.predict D.imagine
2.A.cool B.wonderful C.amazing D.original
3.A.discussion B.talk C.conversation D.communication

10.A.tell B.phone C.visit D.use
11.A.recently B.early C.late D.last
12.A.Besides B.Instead C.Also D.However
13.A.dishonest B.unkind C.true D.clear
14.A.certainly B.perhaps C.impossibly D.really

You should also speak English as much as possible. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. Mistakes are part of learning.

五、信息还原(六选五)
Students usually have to spend a lot of time learning knowledge, but the learning outcome cannot always meet what we expect. 1 Here, let’s try Feynman's learning method.
As the name suggests, it was proposed by a Nobel Prize winner Richard Feynman. It is an effective way to help people learn and understand anything new. 2
First of all, choose a concept(概念) as your learning aim. Read the material and try to understand it.
3 For example, suppose(假定) you are trying to explain the concept to a 5-year-old boy. You use simple language in order to make him fully understand it.
If you have trouble explaining it clearly, then come to the third step. 4 Explain it to the boy bit by bit in your own words until he completely understands it.
Finally, you should be able to answer questions about the concept. 5
Feynman thinks that understanding is more important than memorising. His learning method encourages students to think deeply and solve problems with their own understanding.
A. Next, explain it to others.
B. There are four main steps included.
C. Why can't we make big progress in a short time?
D. Look back the material and divide it in to smaller parts.
E. That is possibly because you don't have good learning ways.
F. Try to teach it to more people and be ready to answer any of their questions.
1.__________2. __________3. __________ 4. __________5. ___________
六、阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
As you know, homework is a big part of going to school. 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, it is a good idea to spend even more time. You may need 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 doesn'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). 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 explain things more clearly. Your parents can also help you before or after school and 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个单词。
1. Why can't you do homework on the comfortable bed?
2. How long can you take a rest after doing an hour of homework?
3. Who can you ask for help if you find some subjects hard to learn?
4. How many suggestions are there in the passage to make your homework easy?
5. How do you make your homework easy? (请自拟一句话作答)
七、首字母填空
Learning is a lifelong journey. What makes a good learner?
First, good learners are curious. They are c 1 about new things and dare to ask questions. They won’t stop thinking when they meet difficulties.
Second, they know how to study w 2 . They usually m 3 a study plan and focus on important knowledge. They listen to teachers m 4 carefully than others in class.
Many good learners like to teach t 5 . They try to find answers by themselves instead of waiting for others’ help. When they make mistakes, they will w 6 them down and learn from mistakes.
Practice makes perfect. The more you practise, the b 7 you will become. No one can learn everything well w 8 hard work. Talent alone is not enough. Also, good learners know how to relax. Studying all day without rest makes you learn e 9 more slowly. B 10 study and rest, and you will learn much more quickly.
