阅读下面的短文,然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

A former high school teacher who fled his classroom during the massive May 12 earthquake in southwest China has a new job here in a private training school.

     Fan Meizhong has a two-year contract with Keyfind Education School in the Haidian District, school spokesman Zhang Wenbin told Xinhua on Wednesday.

     The former Chinese language teacher from a private high school in earthquake-hit Dujiangyan City, Sichuan Province, was nicknamed “running Fan” by netizens (网民) after he left his students behind and escaped the classroom as the 8.0-magnitude earthquake struck.

     Fan’s behavior became a controversial object, and he was later fired.

     Zhang said, however, that Fan had been hired for his extensive teaching experience and talent. At Keyfind, he’ll conduct research on developing students’ potential and raising their interest in learning. He’ll also give some lectures, according to Zhang.

     “Fan, as a person, also needs to live,” Zhang said. “We hope the media will be tolerant about Fan and give him some living space. Whether he was wrong or right in his running behavior, we only want to make use of his talent.”

     He said the school had not decided what to do next about Fan’s job.

Everyone knows how a fishing calendar(日历) works: it tells you when you have the best chance of catching the most fish. This year, though, Kelson Poepoe, a conservationist on Hawaii’s Molokai Island, helped publish an unusual version on this model. Poepoe and his colleagues decided to print a calendar telling people when not to fish.

Many of the Homestead’s residents still follow an existence lifestyle, gathering roughly one-third of their food by fishing in nearby Mo’omomi Bay. But, even though overfishing has exhausted fish populations throughout Hawaii, Mo’omomi Bay’s fishery is booming, with a higher fish density(密度) than nearly anywhere else in the main islands.

The new calendar is based on the ancient fishing practices that have helped keep those populations strong. Hawaiians have long known that carefully tended resources will renew themselves. To make this process easier, fishermen traditionally worked hard to understand and adapt to fish behavior. For example, they closely monitored where and when key species gathered to reproduce, and they prevented fishing during those times. By contrast, most of today’s fishermen see spawning(产卵) periods as a chance to get large numbers of fish, which can cause population break down.

While these traditional methods have largely died out, they are still practiced by Poepoe and his fellow men at Mo’omomi Bay. “We have a rule of conduct that basically says, take only what you can eat fresh, don’t stock your fridge, and don’t take the fish when they spawn,” Poepoe said.

In 1993, Poepoe helped found the conservation group Hui Malama Mo’omomi to teach those practices to new generations, and publishing the calendar is a key part of this move. It follows the lunar cycle, declaring when certain species are not available or “taboo.” It also includes helpful hints about fish lifecycles, detailing exactly where in the bay certain kinds of fish like to gather, how to tell males from females, and which fishing methods are least likely to harm fish populations long-term.

So far, these methods have helped keep Mo’omomi Bay’s fish number totals far higher than elsewhere in the surrounding islands.

With hopes of copying this success, a number of local groups are interested in creating similar calendars for other coastal areas. But that’s a difficult project, partly because fish habits are highly local, meaning that the information in the calendar applies mainly to Mo’omomi Bay. Still, these groups believe the basic methods are transferable.

 

51. What does the passage mainly tell us?

  A. New lunar calendar tells Hawaiians when not to fish.

  B. Traditional methods prevent fishermen from fishing.

  C. A conservation group was founded in Hawaii.

  D. Less fish will be caught in Hawaii Mo’omomi Bay in future.

52. According to the passage, Poepoe’s new calendar ________.

  A. decides the best time for fishing

  B. makes Mo’omomi Bay’s fishery booming

  C. is based on the regular fishing calendar

  D. helps to take care of fishing resources

53. The underlined words “those practices” in Paragraph 5 refer to ________.

  A. the foundation of the conservation group

  B. understanding of fish behaviours

  C. Hawaiian traditional methods of fishing

  D. modern fishermen’s fishing behaviours

54. To use a similar new calendar for other coastal areas, people have to ________.

  A. fish only when key species gather to reproduce

  B. understand and adapt to fish behavior there

  C. learn how to tell males from females

  D. keep fish number totals high

55. It seems that most modern fishermen ________.

  A. may use the new fishing calendar soon

  B. are likely to catch fish during spawning periods

  C. fish much more than what they can eat fresh

  D. try their best not to harm fish populations long-term

    The most exciting kind of education is also the most personal. Nothing can exceed (超越) the joy of discovering for yourself something that is important to you! It may be an idea or a bit of information you come across accidentally―or a sudden insight, fitting together pieces of information or working through a problem. Such personal encounters are the “payoff” in education. A teacher may direct you to learning and even encourage you in it―but no teacher can make the excitement or the joy happen. That's up to you.

A research paper, assigned in a course and perhaps checked at various stages by an instructor, leads you beyond classrooms, beyond the texts for classes and into a process where the joy of discovery and learning can come to you many times. Preparing the research paper is an active and individual process, and ideal learning process. It provides a structure within which you can make exciting discoveries, of knowledge and of self, that are basic to education. But the research paper also gives you a chance to individualize a school assignment, to suit a piece of work to your own interests and abilities, to show others what you can do. Writing a research paper is more than just a classroom exercise. It is an experience in searching out, understanding and synthesizing(综合), which forms the basis of many skills applicable(可利用的) to both academic and nonacademic tasks. It is, in the fullest sense, a discovering of an education. So, to produce a good research paper is both a useful and a thoroughly satisfying experience!

To some, the thought of having to write an assigned number of pages, often more than ever produced before, is upsetting. To others, the very idea of having to work independently is threatening. But there is no need to approach paper assignment with anxiety, and nobody should view the research paper as an obstacle to overcome. Instead, consider it a goal to accomplish, a goal within reach if you use the help this book can give you.

 

57.According to the writer, personal discoveries          .

       A.will give one encouragement and direction

       B.are helpful in finding the right information

       C.are the most valuable part of one's personal education

       D.will help one to successfully complete school assignments

58.It can be inferred from the passage that writing a research paper gives one chances        .

       A.to fully develop one's personal abilities

       B.to use the skills learnt in the classroom

       C.to prove that one is a productive writer

       D.to demonstrate how well one can accomplish school assignment

59.The writer argues in the passage that        .

       A.one should explore new areas in research

       B.one should trust one's own ability to meet course requirements

       C.one should consider research paper writing a pleasure, not a burden

       D.one should use all one's knowledge and skills when doing research

60.What will probably follow this passage?

       A.How to write a research paper.

       B.The importance of research in education.

       C.How to make new discoveries for oneself.

       D.The skill of putting pieces of information together.

Thirteen, for me, was a challenging year. My parents divorced and I moved to a new town with my father, far from my old family and friends. I was terribly lonely mad would cry myself to sleep each night. To ease my sadness, my father purchased an old horse for me at a local auction. I named him Cowboy.

Cowboy was without a doubt the ugliest horse in the world. But I didn’t care. I loved him beyond all reason.

I joined a riding club and suffered rude comments and mean snickers about Cowboy’s looks. I never let on about how I felt, but deep inside, my heart was breaking. The other members rode beautiful, registered horses.

When Cowboy and I entered the events where the horse is judged on appearance, we were quickly shown the gate. No amount of preparation and love would turn Cowboy into a beauty. My only chance to compete would be in the speed events. I chose the jumping race.

One girl named Becky rode a big brown horse in the race events. She always won the blue ribbons.  Needless to say, she didn’t feel threatened when I competed against her at the next show. She didn’t need to. I came in next to last.

The stinging memory of Becky’s smirks made me determined to beat her. For the whole next month I woke up early every day and rode Cowboy five miles to the arena (赛马场). We practiced running and jumping for hours in the hot sun and then I would walk Cowboy home totally exhausted.

All of our hard work didn’t make me feel confident by the time the show came. I sat at the gate and sweated it out while I watched Becky and her horse charge through the course and finish in first place.

My turn finally came. I put on my hat, rubbed Cowboy’s neck and entered the arena. At the signal, we dashed toward the first fence, jumped it without trouble and raced on to the next one. Cowboy then flew over the second, third and fourth fences like a bird and I turned him toward the finish line.

As we crossed the line the crowd was shocked into silence. Cowboy and I had beaten Becky and her fancy horse by two seconds!

I gained much more than a blue ribbon that day. At thirteen, I realized that no matter what the odds,  I’d always come out a winner if I wanted something badly enough to work for it.

 

41. The underlined expression "shown the gate" (paragraph 4) most probably means "     ".

A. told how to enter the arena

B. shown how to make the horse beautiful

C. removed from the competition early

D. told to enter the timed-speed events

42. Why was the writer not confident of victory?

A. He was an inexperienced rider.    

B. He had not practiced enough.

C. He believed he was unpopular with the crowd.

D. He thought his horse wasn’t as good as the others.

43. When the final race finished, nobody cheered because        .

A. the audience didn’t like Cowboy    B. people envied the writer

C. the win was unexpected                 D. the writer bad run out of time

44. What did the writer learn from his experience?

A. Life can sometimes be unfair.

B. Anything is possible if one tries hard enough.

C. A positive attitude will bring success.

D. One should not make judgments based on appearance.

45. The best title for the story is          .

A. A Run to Remember            B.A Horse’s Tale

   C. Neck and Neck                   D.A Difficult Age

Handball is a hugely popular sport in Europe and Asia, and it is one of the fastest and most exciting sports in the world. It combines basketball and soccer with the attracting saves of water polo. Handball is played on an indoor court ( the size of two basketball courts ) and there are goals at each end. There are twelve players on each team, two goal keepers and ten field players, but there is a maximum of one goalkeeper and six field players from each team allowed on the court at any one time. The idea is simple: score more goals than the other team.  

The ball is made of leather or a synthetic material and it must be round. The surface must not be shiny or slippery. The size and weight of the ball varies for male and female teams, and adult and junior team’s. Handball has the same freeranging play as basketball, with all players except the goalkeeper constantly moving from attack to defence. The goalkeeper uses hands, feet, head and body to keep out the other team’s shots.  

The origins of handball are unclear. Many people believe that it developed as a training game for soccer, to be played in the off season, or when it was snowing. Now, in countries where handball is popular, players can earn large sums of money, and indoor stadiums seating over ten thousand people sell out regularly. Handball has been played at the Olympics since 1972.  

 

56.The passage states that handball was most probably developed         .  

A.as a replacement for basketball                            B.by supporters of water polo

China has become the fourth biggest trade partner of Russia,and Russia is China's ninth biggest.The year 2005 has seen an effort to decide the location of the China-Russia border.It ended a decades-long dispute about the border and opened a new page for long-term friendly relations.“The increasing exchanges between China and Russia have brought more job opportunities to Chinese-speaking Russians I hope the friendship can last from generation to generation so that it will bring more benefits to both peoples,”said Irina Ivanovo,a tour guide who studied Chinese at university for five years.

 

56.What is the story mainly about?

A.The Sino-Russian relationship.

B.The big Chinese party held at the Kremlin.

C.President Hu Jlintao's three-day visit in Russia.

D.The increasing exchanges between China and Russia.
