  When I was in the third grade, I was picked to be the princess in the school play.

  For weeks my mother helped me 1 my sentences. But once during a performance, every word 2 from my head. My teacher asked me to change roles and be the narrator(解说员). Though I didn’t tell my mother what had 3 that day, she felt my 4 and asked if I wanted to take a walk in the yard.

It was a lovely spring day. We could see dandelions(蒲公英)coming out through the grass, just like a painter had touched our woods and fields with bits of gold. I watched my mother carelessly bend down(弯腰) 5 some flowers. “I think I am going to dig up all the wild grass,” she said. “But I like dandelions, all flowers are beautiful—even dandelions!” I said
. My mother looked at me seriously. “Yes, every flower shines in 6 own way. And that is true of people, too,” she said. She had guessed my pain. I started to cry and told her the 7 . “You will be a beautiful narrator,” she said, 8 me of how much I loved to read stories aloud to her.

  Over the next few weeks, I learned to take 9 in the role. The big day finally came. A few minutes before the play, my teacher came over to me. “Your mother asked me to give this to you,” she said, handing me a 10 .

  Have you ever heard of “a ball of energy”? People often use it to describe very active children. But today we tell about an invention called the soccket, that is a real soccer ball of energy. Julia Silverman explains that in fact the soccket is a portable generator(便携式发电机).

  Julia Silverman and Jessica Matthews developed the soccket as part of a group project for an engineering class at Harvard University.

  There are mechanisms(装置) in a soccket. When you kick, hit or throw it, energy is then kept in it by these mechanisms instead of disappearing into the environment.

  Then the user can put something directly into the ball, like a lamp, or a mobile phone charger so that they can get energy from it.

  For every fifteen minutes of the game play, the sOccket can provide enough electricity(电) for an LED lamp for three hours, and the ball can store(储藏) up to 24 hours’ electricity.

  The International Energy Association reported last year that nearly one and a half billion people in the world had no electricity to use, and most of them live in sub­Saharan Africa and in India and other countries in Asia.

  Julia Silverman and Jessica Matthews both had experiences in developing countries before they began the project. They knew that power shortages are a serious problem in really areas.

  There’s an energy crisis in the world. One out of every five people in the world don’t have any electricity. And besides that, there are a lot of health problems because what people use instead of the electricity are harmful choices like kerosene(煤油) lamps, which produce a lot of smoke.

  Julia Silverman says the sOccket ball is one small solution(解决方法) to a big problem.

  Jessica Matthews and Julia Silverman hope their sOccket ball will shine more light on the problem of power shortages. It offers people a chance to put their energy into the world’s most popular sport and get some energy in return.

  (  )41. From the passage, we know the sOccket is ________.

  A. an active child   B. an invention

  C. a lamp  D. a mobile phone

  (  )42. If you play the sOccket for half an hour, it can provide an LED lamp with electricity for ________.

  A. fifteen minutes  B. half an hour

  C. six hours     D. three hours

  (  )43. The underlined word “crisis” in the passage means ________.

  A. a time of safety     B. a time of difficulty

  C. a time of success     D. a time of pride

  (  )44. We can infer(推断) from the passage that ________.

  A. Julia Silverman has never been to developing countries before

  B. Active children like to play sOccket

  C. kicking a sOccket can let the energy disappear into the environment

  D. people are expected to get some energy by playing sOccket

  (  )45. The best title for the passage should be “________”.

  A. The only way to produce electricity

  B. The best way to solve energy crisis

  C. A soccer ball that gives energy

  D. An invention changing the world

  In many western schools,sports day is a big event.Children take part in competitive(竞

  争性的)sports,trying to break school records and take the first place.

  Sports days,or sports meetings,are usually held in the warmer seasons,either at the

  beginning or the end of the school year.They are also called field days.

  Primary school sports days are fun.They usually have activities such as the egg and the

  spoon race and the sack race.Other events include the skipping race(跳绳)and the three—legged race.In middle and high schools,sports days include many of the common track and field events.They are more serious and competitive than primary school ones.

  Students’parents and other relatives also come to the school on sports days.They watch

  children play.Many schools in the West have“mothers and fathers’’races for parents to take

  part in!

  In the US,sports days have become too competitive to be good for students.Some parents put too much pressure on the children.Some schools don’t have“mothers and fathers”races any more as there is much fighting and cheating.

  1.What do children try to do when they take part in sports meetings?

  2.What does the writer think about sports days?

  3.Do you think sports days are good for students? Why or why not?

  3.B解析:本句表示作者没有告诉妈妈那天发生了什么事。

  4.D解析:根据上文“My teacher asked me t0 change roles and be the narrator.”可知,作者由于台词记不好,由公主的扮演者转为解说员,心情不佳。且由后文中的“She had guessed my pain.”可推断,此处需填写pain的近义词。

  8.A解析:根据句意可知此处表示“使某人想起”;remind引导的结构在此处作状语,用其现在分词形式开头。

  9.D解析:作者由蒲公英受到启发,态度转为积极,故对自己的角色自豪。take action行动;take turns轮流;take,risks冒险;take pride in…因……自豪。

  10.B解析:根据前文中“But I like dandelions,all flowers are beautiful—even dandelions!”可知。作者从蒲公英的身上看到自己的影子,并用蒲公英的平凡鼓励自己。故在作者表演这天,她妈妈送一株蒲公英来鼓励作者。note笔记.注解;

  One possible version

I have a plan for the party that divides into three parts. They’re Picture show, Ta
lent show and Senior high message.

  Part 1. Picture show

  We bring some photos taken with our teachers or classmates and describe the photos with a good story about our school lives.

  Part 2. Talent show

  We can share our hobbies with our classmates. We can show what we can do in music, art or sport. We can also show other special abilities like playing magic and so on.

  Part 3. Senior high message

  Each of us prepares a big card, and then writes down a message for senior high on the card for each other. So every one can exchange the best wishes with his or her classmates.

  In this party, all of us can share our wonderful experience in the past three years. We can present what they’ve learnt and how much progress we’ve made, too. And finally we may look forward to the future with lots of encouragement or advice.
