【题目】 A group of frogs (青蛙)were traveling through the woods. And two of them fell into a deep pit. When the other frogs saw how deep the pit was, they told the two frogs that they were as good as dead. The two frogs didn't listen and tried to jump out of the pit with all their might. The other frogs kept telling them to stop. Finally, one of the frogs heard what the other frogs were saying and gave up, so he died.

The other frog went on jumping as hard as he could. Once again, the other frogs cried at him and told him to stop and just allow himself to die. He jumped even harder and finally made himself out. When he got out, the other frogs said, "Didn't you hear us?" The frog explained to them that something was wrong with his hearing. He thought they were encouraging him the whole time.

There is power of life and death in the tongue. An encouraging word to someone who is down can lift him or her up and help them make it through the day. Be careful of what you say. Speak life to those who cross your path. The power of words—anyone can speak bad words that rob another of the spirit to go on in difficult times. But an encouraging word can go such a long way.

【写作内容】 1. 用约30个词概括上面这篇文章的内容。

2. 以约120个词就“语言的力量”发表你的看法和感受,内容包括:

(1) 语言在现实生活中的正负面影响;

(2)举一个发生在你或你认识的人身上的例子,说明语言的正或负面的影响;

(3) 日常生活中,我们应该如何利用好语言,让语言产生积极的影响。

【写作要求】 在作文中可以使用自己亲身的经历或虚构的故事,也可以参照阅读材料的内容,

但不得直接引用原文中的句子。

【答案】

After two frogs fell into a deep pit, one died because of his companions' discouraging words while the other that mistook them for encouraging ones got out. So words have powerful effects on people's attitude towards life.

We use words every day but not all of us realize their powerful influence. A student will spare no efforts to study because of others' inspiring words. On the contrary, if he is told that there is no possibility for him to succeed, he may really give up and end up as a failure totally.

My friend Mary had a traffic accident and got severely hurt. Though the chances for her recovery were little, her mother decided to tell a lie in order to cheer her up. It was the power of words that actually helped her stand up and walk again.

In conclusion, when faced with negative and discouraging remarks, we ought to turn a deaf ear to them as they will destroy our hope and faith. What matters more to us are those positive words that make us highly inspired and motivated. In the meantime, give our positive words to people around us because they will give us theirs in return.

【解析】

试题分析:文章大意:两只青蛙掉进了深坑里,同伴们都认为它们上不来了,于是就劝它俩放弃,其中一只放弃了,死掉了。而另一只是聋子,它以为同伴们是在鼓励它,于是鼓足勇气,最后一跃跳了出来。

这篇短文就引发来一个问题,那就是语言既能给你希望,又能使你有挫败感甚至失去希望。这就是语言给予你不同的感受。就是语言的力量。而该篇写作就要求考生在概括文章大意的基础上,就“语言的力量”发表考生的看法和感受,阐述语言在现实生活中的正负面影响;再举例子,说明语言的正或负面的影响;最后告诉我们在日常生活中,应该如何利用好语言,让语言产生积极的影响。亮点分析:短文中运用了one……while the other來对比两只青蛙的不同表现。由此准确的概括了故事的內容和主旨。the other that……也采用了同位语使得句子更加连贯。然後在用生活中人们被语言力量的影响來论述语言的正负影响。以身边朋友Mary为例來說语言的影响力。总结了我們应该用积极的话语去影响别人。文中有fall into掉入,落下;because of因為,由于;get out从……出去;have effect on对…有影响;on the contrary相反;there is no possibility for sb to do sth对于某人做某事是沒有可能性的;give up放弃;end up as以作为…而结束;decide to do sth决定做某事;in order to为了…;cheer up欢呼,庆祝;it is/was…that;stand up站起来;ought to do sth;what matters more;in the meantime;in return;……大量短语和精彩的句子成分,使文章更加连贯,成功。读起来朗朗上口。为文章增添了色彩。使文章成为一篇优秀的范文。

【题目】Dick was a twenty-year-old man. His father was a teacher and taught chemistry in a middle school and his mother worked in a shop. They lived a happy life until his parents died one night when suddenly an earthquake broke out. All that happened on his sixth birthday. Luckily his sister who was two years senior to him took him to see their aunt in the city and they did not stay at home. Everything was destroyed in the earthquake and the two children got into trouble. Thanks to their aunt who was not rich enough, they grew up but they lived a hard life. His sister was so sad that she became a nun(修女). After he finished middle school, he was introduced to an owner of a hotel and began to work there.

One day the young man fell to the ground while he was cleaning a window on the second floor. He was sent to the hospital and the doctor looked him over. One of his legs was broken and he had to be in hospital. He said to the nurse, “I’m a poor man, madam. Arrange a third-class ward(病房) for me, please.”

“Can’t anybody help you?”

“No, madam,” answered Dick. “I have only a sister. She’s a nun and she’s poor, too.”

“I don’t think so,” the nurse said angrily. “Nuns usually marry God. And God is the richest in the world, you know!”

“Well, then, Dick said with a smile. “Please arrange a first-class ward for me and post the bill to my brother-in-law.”

【题目】Conventional wisdom says that hardship can make us old before our time. In fact, a new study suggests that violence not only leaves long-term scars on childrens bodies, but also changes their DNA, causing changes that are equal to seven to ten years of premature aging.

Scientists measured this by studying the ends of childrens chromosomes(染色体), called telomeres, says Idan Shalev, lead author of a study published in Molecular Psychiatry.

Telomeres are special DNA sequences which prevent the DNA in chromosomes from separating. They get shorter each time a cell divides, until a cell cannot divide any more and dies.

Several factors have been found to shorten telomeres, including smoking, radiation and psychological stresses such as being treated badly when young and taking care of a chronically ill person.

In this study, researchers examined whether exposure to violence could make childrens telomeres shorten faster than normal. They interviewed the mothers of 236 children at ages 5, 7 and 10, asking whether the youngsters had been exposed to domestic violence between the mother and her partner; physical maltreatment by an adult; or bullying. Researchers measured the childrens telomeresin cells obtained by swabbing the insides of their cheeksat ages 5 and 10.

Telomeres shortened faster in kids exposed to two or more types of violence, says Shalev. Unless that pattern changes, the study suggests, these kids could be expected to develop diseases of aging, such as heart attacks or memory loss, seven to 10 years earlier than their peers.

Shalev says there is hope for these kids. His study found that, in rare cases, telomeres can lengthen. Better nutrition, exercise and stress reduction are three things that may be able to lengthen telomeres, he says.

The study confirms a small but growing number of studies suggesting that early childhood adversity imprints itself in our chromosomes, says Charles Nelson, a professor of pediatrics and neuroscience at Harvard Medical School.

【1The new study found that ________.

A. hardship can change a childs aging

B. violence leaves scars on a childs mind

C. violence can speed up a childs aging

D. hardship has a long term effect on a childs mind

【2According to the text, telomeres ________.

A. are at the ends of peoples chromosomes

B. can help prevent DNA from separating

C. can make a cell die quickly

D. become shorter before they die

【3Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?

A. Violence can cause quick cell division in childrens body.

B. Researchers measured the childrens telomeres from their legs in the study.

C. Being treated badly will make a childs telomeres shorten faster.

D. Children who have shorter telomeres may have a heart attack earlier.

【4What is the best title for the text?

A. Violence Aging Childrens DNA

B. Childrens Changing DNA Patterns

C. Violence and Telomeres

D. The Function of Telomeres

【题目】It has long been thought that first-born children are more successful than their younger brothers and sisters and often have qualities of being more organised and responsible as well as being eager to be in charge.

But a new study has shown that the elder child's achievements can help improve their younger siblings(兄弟姐妹) exam results by helping them to raise their game. For the first time ever, researchers from the University of Essex examined how the success of first born children in school affected their younger brothers and sisters by studying primary school test results.

And the data showed that having an older brother or sister improved a child’s learning with the equal effect of spending an extra 670 on the younger sibling's schooling. One of the study’s authors Birgitta Rabe explained, the older sibling’s achievement may have a direct effect on the younger sibling’s school grades if the older sibling teaches the younger sibling or helps with homework; the younger sibling imitates(模仿) the older sibling, for example in their work style, or tries to be different, for example to avoid competition; the older sibling passes on important information about educational choices or school and teachers to the younger sibling.

The effect is even more noticeable in less well-off families showing poorer children benefit more from a successful older sibling. “We find that the effect is larger for siblings in families relying on free school meals, living in poverty and speaking a language other than English at home. This means that children who live in poverty benefit more from a successful older sibling than children who live in well-off families.”

【1】The study is mainly based on the children’s ________.

A. exam results B. work style

C. family background D. educational choices

【2】According to the study, ________ tend to benefit more from a successful older sibling.

A. the children who live in rich families

B. the children who live in poor families

C. the children whose parents are successful

D. the children whose mother language is English

【3】What can we conclude from the study?

A. Younger siblings are more successful than first borns.

B. First-born children are as successful as their younger siblings.

C. First-born children are more successful than their younger siblings.

D. The success of first borns has positive effects on their younger siblings.

【4】The passage is likely to appear in ________.

A. a newspaper advertisement

B. a high school textbook

C. a science magazine

D. a news report
