    You never see them, but they're with you every time you fly. They record where you are going, how fast you're traveling and whether everything on your airplane is functioning normally. Their ability to withstand almost any disaster makes them seem like something out of a comic book. They're known as the black box.
    When planes fall from the sky, as a Yemeni airliner did on its way to Comoros Islands in the India ocean June 30, 2009, the black box is the best bet for identifying what went wrong. So when a French submarine (潜水艇) detected the device's homing signal five days later, the discovery marked a huge step toward determining the cause of a tragedy in which 152 passengers were killed.
    In 1958, Australian scientist David Warren developed a flight-memory recorder that would track basic information like altitude and direction. That was the first mode for a black box, which became a requirement on all U.S. commercial flights by 1960. Early models often failed to withstand crashes, however, so in 1965 the device was completely redesigned and moved to the rear of the plane – the area least subject to（易遭受）impact – from its original position in the landing wells (起落架舱). The same year, the Federal Aviation Authority required that the boxes, which were never actually black, be painted orange or yellow to aid visibility.
    Modern airplanes have two black boxes: a voice recorder, which tracks pilots' conversations, and a flight-data recorder, which monitors fuel levels, engine noises and other operating functions that help investigators reconstruct the aircraft's final moments. Placed in an insulated (隔绝的) case and surrounded by a quarter-inch-thick panels of stainless steel, the boxes can withstand massive force and temperatures up to 2,000℉. When submerged, they're also able to emit signals from depths of 20,000 ft.
    Experts believe the boxes from Air France Flight 447, which crashed near Brazil on June 1, 2009, are in water nearly that deep, but statistics say they're still likely to turn up. In the approximately 20 deep-sea crashes over the past 30 years, only one plane's black boxes were never recovered.
    小题1:What information could be found from the black box on the Yemeni airliner?
    A．Data for analyzing the cause of the crash.
    B．The total number of passengers on board.
    C．The scene of the crash and extent of the damage.
    D．Homing signals sent by the pilot before the crash.
    小题2:Why was the black box redesigned in 1965?
    A．New materials became available by that time.
    B．Too much space was needed for its installation.
    C．The early models often got damaged in the crash.
    D．The early models didn't provide the needed data.
    小题3:Why did the Federal Aviation Authority require the black boxes be painted orange or yellow?
    A．To distinguish them from the colour of the plane.
    B．To caution people to handle them with care.
    C．To make them easily identifiable.
    D．To obey international standards
    小题4:What do we know about the black boxes from Air France Flight 447?
    A．There is still a good chance of their being recovered.
    B．There is an urgent need for them to be reconstructed.
    C．They have stopped sending homing signals.
    D．They were destroyed somewhere near Brazil.

    阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的字数要求)。
    [1]Everyone makes mistakes. How do you react when a family member, friend, or a classmate makes a mistake? Some of us may shout out , complain, or punish. Unfortunately, these reactions to mistakes sometimes greatly hurt both sides. In fact, there is a better way to deal with a mistake.
    [2]Reframe（重组） "MISTAKE": Change "MISTAKE" into "MIS-TAKE." Doesn't that have a different feeling? Therefore, a mistake is not so bad as expected. We can learn from it and it is likely to lead to success in the end.
    [3]Use mistakes as an opportunity for learning. Most of us want to hide our mistakes, but we may be more willing to share our "MIS-TAKES" and let others learn from them. Either an individual or a family can benefit by openly recognizing and correcting mistakes, rather than pretending that they didn't happen. In fact, a mistake, if corrected quickly and in a creative way, can become ___________for learning.
    [4]Think of mistakes as opportunities to prove yourself. A mistake becomes an opportunity to create a close friend or customer. For example, in business, studies show that one of the things all customers want is recovery when the organization has made a mistake. They want us to apologize sincerely. With creative thinking, we can make them satisfied with the way we deal with a mistake.
    [5] We have learned to allow people around us to make mistakes. Now give them “protection” when they make a mistake. If you give people both permission and protection, you will get along well with them. Show them how they can turn a mistake into learning something about themselves so they don’t make the same mistake again.

    One of the biggest challenges facing students and their families is what career they should enter and what is the best path for them to take.
    I was talking to someone the other day who told me he first studied accounting because that was what everyone was studying several years ago. It was and some say still is a reliable career. However, then he told me that he was now studying financial investment because again--- that’s what everyone was studying now and it was needed if he wanted to get ahead in the company.
    And I asked him what he was actually interested in and then— well the conversation kind of died. So I asked why he had bothered studying accounting in the first place and he explained that it was his parents’ idea. Finally I asked what his passion was and he wasn’t too sure because he never thought about it.
    And so it is— lifelong learning— or the continual need to make ourselves marketable in a world that appears to be more competitive as time goes by. Is there a secret to help us so we can live a life of quality?
    Regardless or not at this stage in world history with increasing connection between people,
    ideas and markets — the ability to match the needs and desires of the day with your own skills and products is a tremendous and vigorous challenge.
    Many have gone into English or foreign language study because it was encouraged at the time when China was entering the WTO. Or maybe they were interested in international affairs or working abroad. Upon graduation they then faced the reality that there was a limit to how many jobs they could apply for.
    Perhaps some then studied further doing courses for work such as a tour guide or translator/ interpreter. Many may have decided that going into teaching was more rewarding or stable. Others would have gone into media or advertising or conference management and acquired new skills along the way.
    This constant quest to remain ahead of the game makes many upset and exhausted. Some futurists who examine technology have even predicted that people should expect to change careers six or seven times during their lifetime!
    So if you are concerned by the nature of change, why not start spending more time looking at the most modern leading economies, institutions and their publications. A whole lot of changes are starting to happen yet there is no reason why this cannot be enjoyable, exciting and also rewarding. Our attitude, approach and willingness to continually learn and update our skills must remain strong.
    My tip is to track the work that our government is setting about to achieve. In particular, look at the people who have been chosen as the key support team and try to read behind the light surface news and look at their career development and examine the recent reports that they are now recommending the government move towards. Key industry development, new ways of dealing with information and new demands are creating opportunities for the students and workers of tomorrow — if we stay prepared.
    小题1:Who is this article intended for?
    A．Government administrators.
    B．Students planning their careers.
    C．Foreign language learners.
    D．Professors designing courses.
    小题2:The case of the student who first studied accounting and then financial investment shows ______.
    A．many people decide their majors without knowing their own interest
    B．parents’ decisions are always blind and will result in a life of low quality
    C．accounting and financial investment are necessary to ensure a reliable career.
    D．people never have a chance to think about their own interest in choosing career.
    小题3:In the writer’s opinion, to make yourself competitive in the changing world today is _____.
    A．exhaustingB．disappointingC．unbelievableD．necessary
    小题4:According to the writer, lifetime learning can be exciting if ______.
    A．we are prepared for the changes
    B．we know who President has on his support team
    C．we read the publications of advanced institutions
    D．we learn English or some other foreign languages
    小题5:Whoever has been chosen as the key support team of the government _______.
    A．shows the government’s interest in new information
    B．enables you to find out how hard-working these people are
    C．indicates the direction the economy is developing
    D．reveals the government encourages creative young people

    She had been shopping with her Mom in Wal-Mart．She must have been 6 years old, this beautiful brown haired, freckle-faced image of innocence．Outside, it was pouring so heavily．

    "No, honey．We'll wait until it slows down a bit," Mom replied．
    This young child waited about another minute and repeated: "Mom, let's run through the rain．"

    "No, we won't, Mom．That's not what you said this morning," the young girl said as she tore at her Mom's arm．
    "This morning? When did I say we could run through the rain and not get wet?"
    "Don't you remember? When you were talking to Daddy about his cancer, you said, If God can get us through this, he can get us through anything!"
    The entire crowd stopped dead silent．I dare say you couldn't hear anything but the rain．We all stood silently. No one came or left in. the next few minutes,Mom paused and thought for a moment about what she would say．
    Now some would laugh it off and scold her for being silly．Some might even ignore what was said. But this was a moment of affirmation in a young child's lifetime when innocent trust can be developed so that it will bloom into faith．"Honey, you are absolutely right．Let's run through the rain．If get wet, well maybe we just need washing," Mom said．Then off they ran.
    We all stood watching, smiling and laughing as they rushed past the cars and they held their shopping bags over their heads just in case．They got soaked．But they were followed by a few who screamed and laughed like children all the way to their cars．And yes, I did．I ran．I got wet．I needed washing．
    You may lose your material possessions, your money and even your health, but no one can ever take away your precious memories．So don't forget to make time and take the opportunities to make memories．

    阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题。（请注意问题后的字数要求）
    [1] Learning to save money when you’re young is an important lesson. All good lessons and habits begin early, and saving is a skill that everyone needs. Many people---adults included-- do not have a good sense of saving for the long run.
    [2] Make sure you save and don’t spend too much, which is a good way to build up wealth. I have put my earnings in a bank. Many teens I know spend all the money they earn so it never has a chance to grow. Young people should realize that their teenage years are a great time to begin saving.
    [3] At high school many parents pay for almost everything, so your expenses can be small. If you have a lot , you should have fun with some of the money. But you should also save some so that it will grow. Then you can begin planning for your future.
    [4] After high school, college is expensive and then “real” life begins, with expenses such as food and rent. You can hold on to a good percentage of the money you earn as a teen. The earlier      , the more time the money has to grow. If you are in your thirties without any savings, you will always have to struggle. The earlier you begin saving, the easier it is to create a nest egg.
    [5]Later in life it can be hard to start saving because general costs of living are more expensive and you may only have enough to pay your bills. If you want to buy a house and have a family, you need money to start with, which comes from saving.
    [6]Saving early will mean you will have to work for fewer years when you are older. It will also allow you to spend time doing the things that you want to do. In addition, it will mean you can live the way you want to without worrying.

    Wendy Gallegos writes “concer” on the board. One of her students raises her hand.
    “Ms. Gallegos, you should have written ‘conocer’ instead,” she said, referring to the Spanish verb for “to know.”
    Gallegos looks at the board, smiles and quickly erases her mistake.
    “You see, I have taught you so well, you pick up on my mistakes,” she said with a laugh.
    To Gallegos, the scene in her classroom is typical（特有的）of the children she teaches. Gallegos teaches high school Spanish. She became part of their lives and families for three years. She is willing to help her children succeed. After a couple of years, Gallegos’ class becomes like home. Gallegos’ Spanish class is taught mostly in English in sixth grade. By the time the students are eighth-graders, they are speaking fewer words of English and more of Spanish during the 50-minute classes.
    “My goal is to get my kids to say something in Spanish every day,” she said, “I want them to be able to talk to me. That’s why I help them, I praise them, I recognize them when they do good work. And we have fun. The day I stop having fun is the day I am going to consider a different job.’’
    If a student needs help, Gallegos offers the student a “lifesaver,” which is help from a classmate. The lifesaver gets a piece of candy as a reward. As the students said: “Gallegos’ class is anything but boring.” It is because of Gallegos’ efforts and determination that she is the teacher who they think is most deserving of one of Collier County’s Golden Apple Awards.

    Rhinos(犀牛) are big and can be dangerous. They are also shy and seldom seen. Once there were hundreds of rhino species, but today there are only five. One ancient rhino called Indricotherium was the largest land mammal that ever lived. It was 5m high at the shoulders, and 8.5m long— twice the size of today’s biggest elephant! The living rhinos are still big, averaging 2-3m long and weighing up to 3,600kg.
    To see all five species of living rhino you would need to do a bit of exploring. First you might visit Africa for a look at the white rhino and the black rhino. They live in Africa’s dry woodlands and grasslands. Then you could head to India and Nepal for a look at the Indian rhino. It lives in the high grasslands near rivers, where you have to ride an elephant to find one. Finally you might travel to the rainforests on the islands of Indonesia to see the Sumatran and Javan rhinos. These are the smallest and rarest rhinos in the world and extremely difficult to find.
    Most rhinos are gentle and timid (胆小的).They have a bad reputation for being very aggressive, but that may be partly because they get frightened easily. Also, they have poor eyesight. They rely on their strong sense of smell to tell them a stranger is approaching, but if the wind is blowing the wrong way, they may not know someone is there until it’s too late.
    Rhinos can be found only in their habitats, which is why habitat destruction has caused rhino populations to decline. As they disappear from certain places, their absence leads to many changes to the landscape. For example, black rhinos in Africa only eat shrubs (灌木) and small trees, pruning (修剪) the plants and limiting their growth. Many other species benefit from this, and as rhinos disappear, so do many other animals sharing their habitat. Bushes and trees take over the land and force species like the antelope to leave in search of food. In a short time the whole habitat has changed.
    小题1:          From the text we learn that ______.
    A．rhinos are all big and dangerous
    B．rhino numbers have declined greatly
    C．rhinos are twice as large as elephants
    D．Indricotherium is the world’s biggest living animal now

    A．Indonesia’s island
    B．Nepal’s high grasslands
    C．Africa’s dry woodlands and grasslands
    D．India’s high grasslands near rivers
    小题3:          What can we conclude from Paragraph 2?
    A．Most rhinos live alone.
    B．Rhinos are disappearing from their habitats.
    C．The five rhino species are all different in colour.
    D．Rhinos’ habitat ranges from rainforests to grasslands.
    小题4:          The underlined word “aggressive” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by_____.
    A．energeticB．attractiveC．uselessD．fierce
    小题5:          The example of the black rhinos in the last paragraph is mainly to show that_____.
    A．rhinos only eat plants
    B．all rhinos are endangered
    C．all the habitat of rhinos has been damaged
    D．the disappearance of rhinos has led to habitat change
