 Section B

Directions: Read the following three passages.  Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.  For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.  Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.

At the beginning of every school year, I feared coming home with the heavy homework of the first day after a summer of fun.  And I feared getting another teacher who had a long list of rules and a stare that could kill a cat.

But there was always one part of beginning a new school year that I enjoyed.  I always liked going to the store to arm myself with new school supplies-even if I didn’t need them.

Sure, my pencils, erasers and notebooks from the previous school year may have had some life left in them.  But this didn’t matter.  Every year, Dad would pile us into the car, take us to Wal-Mart and let us buy the newest and coolest pencils, rainbow-colored erasers and spiral notebooks.

Besides school supplies, many parents also take their kids on annual shopping spree for new clothes and book bags just in time for school.  During the whole process, children are in high spirits, buying a lot of stuff and are back home exhausted.

Every year, most of my classmates and I show up to school on the first day with something smelling like a new car.  We’d put our new stationery on top of the desks, just to make sure others see them.

Leftover supplies from past years were always stuffed into the living room desk.  Used clothes that had lost their appeal were sent to second-hand shops, where they would be sold for 50 cents a piece.

However, all of the new stuff could only make us excited about going to school for one week, after which the usual boredom and fear come back.

65. What is NOT TRUE about the author at the beginning of a new school year in the passage?

       A. He often has to face a new teacher. 

       B. He doesn’t enjoy the load of work from school.

       C. He doesn’t appreciate strict teachers

       D. He obtains new school supplies from the school.

66. Why do the students look forward to getting new pencils every year?

       A. Because the old ones are used up.

       B. Because new pencils help them to study better.

       C. Because they want to show their new stuff off.

       D. Because it’s required by the school.

67. The underlined word “spree” in the passage probably means ______.

       A. competition              B. considerable embarrassment

       C. wild celebration        D. emotional pain

68. How are the old supplies dealt with?

       A. They are put aside and forgotten.     B. They are given to poorer children.

       C. They are sold online. D. They are treasured by the students.

LAYTON-Some Utah high school students have a science project that is generating more than praises and good grades．

They’re generating enough electricity through wind power to sustain（维持）a portable classroom，and that commitment to alternative energy has earned them an international honor．

The students at the Northern Utah Academy of Math，Engineering and Science installed a 400 watt turbine（涡轮机）they bought from Target on top of a portable classroom．Their goal：create an action plan to make classrooms energy—efficient．

“If it keeps spinning at l5 miles an hour wind，if we connected to the grid（输电网）and sold it to California at 12 cents per kilowatt，it would pay us about$50 an hour, ”said student Jace Shuldberg．

They met their goal，and say they gained a new vision for the impact they could have on alternative energy．

“As science and engineering students，we are on the forefront of alternative energy solutions for how to deal with climate change," said student Delaney Burks.

Their plan and ability to communicate it has won them, an all expense-paid trip to the United Nations in New York for a summit on youth leadership. They’ll represent, not only Utah, but the nation, and share ideas.

"Maybe a school in India is near a coast and is looking toward tidal power. Here in Utah, we’re looking toward wind turbine and solar and possibly nuclear power," Shuldberg said.

"I’m so excited for them to meet students from Bulgaria and South Korea and Mongolia," said teacher Gayle Stucki. "I think it’s going to change their lives."

"We really go into it, and I think every person here has been affected by the research that we’ve done," Burks said. "We are talking about an idea that will happen, and that this is the further," Stucki said.

The students leave Wednesday for the Big Apple.
