【題目】 Sherlock Holmes, the world’s greatest detective(偵探), is not a real person.

He is a character from Writer Conan Doyle’s books. Since he created Holmes in 1887, he has been taking us on adventures, one after another.

In the books, Holmes is thin and tall. He often wears a cap and long coat. He thinks and speaks very fast. He smokes and plays the violin. He is good at watching and analyzing (分析) things. He also knows a lot about chemistry.

But Holmes is lonely and unhappy. He is arrogant and often speaks to others impolitely. It seems that no one likes him except Watson. They are close friends and good partners. They trust each other and help each other out of danger.

People look to Sherlock for both adventure and logical(邏輯)thinking. Each adventure shows us an exciting journey. In the journey, we join him and become detectives too, looking out for truth.

Yet Holmes is no Superman. He can’t fly or have super power. But his powers are within of us: reason and logical thinking. While an artist’s painting is his art, Sherlock’s art is his cleverness. He is human, and this is what makes Holmes a true hero for all of us.

1What kind of instrument can Sherlock play?

A.pianoB.guitarC.violinD.chess

2What do we know about Sherlock Holmes?

A.He is a real person.

B.He likes to wear fashionable clothes.

C.He is good at speaking to others.

D.He enjoys watching and analyzing things.

3What does the underlined word arrogant in the third paragraph mean?

A.proudB.cheerfulC.popularD.smart

4People love Homes NOT because .

A.they hope for adventure and logical thinking.

C.they admire his great powers like Superman.

D.they love his great cleverness.

2細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段He is good at watching and analyzing (分析) things..” -—— 可知善于觀察分析,故選D。

【題目】I never saw my father come home from work late or ill, nor did I ever see my father take a “night out with the boys”. He had no hobbies but just took care of his family.

For 22 years, since I left home for college , my father called me every Sunday at 9:00 am. He was always interested in my life----how my family was doing. The calls even came when he and my mother were in Australia, England or Florida.

Nine years ago when I bought my first house, my father, 67 years old, spent eight hours a day for three days, painting my house. He would not allow me to pay someone to have it done. All he asked, was a glass of iced tea, and that I hold a paintbrush for him and talk to him. But I was too busy, for I had a law practice to run, and I could not take the time to hold the paintbrush, or talk to my father.

Five years ago, my 71-year-old father spent five hours putting together a swing set(秋千) for my daughter. Again, all he asked was that I get him a glass of iced tea, and talk to him. But again, I had laundry to do, and the house to clean.

The morning on Sunday, January 16, 1996, my father telephoned me as usual, this time he had seemed to have forgotten some things we had discussed the week before. I had to get to church, and I cut the conversation short.

The call came at 4:40 am. That day my father was sent to hospital in Florida. I got on a plane immediately, and I vowed(發(fā)誓) that when I arrived, I would make up for the lost time, and have a nice long talk with him and really________

I arrived in Florida at 1:00 am, but my father had died at 9:12 pm. This time it was he who did not have time to talk, time to wait for me.

In the years since his death I have learnt much about my father, and even more about myself. As a father, he never asked me for anything but my time. Now he has all my attention, every single day.

A.liked to paint houses

【題目】第二節(jié)閱讀填空

It feels like every time my mother and I start to have a conversation, it turns into an argument. We talk about something as simple as dinner plans and suddenly, my mother will push the conversation into World War III. She’ll talk about my lack of a bright future because I don’t plan to be a doctor. And much to her disappointment, 1. In fact, when I was pushed to say that I planned to major in English and communication, she nearly had a heart attack.

“Why can’ t you be like my co-worker’s son?” she complains all the time. Her co-worker’s son received a four-year scholarship. He is now earning 70,000 dollars a year as an engineer, 2 I simply can’t be like her co-worker’s son. I can’t be like him. I’m the type of person who loves to help out in the community, write until the Sun goes down, and most of all, 3 not because of fame or salary.

4 I’ve seen my mother struggle to raise me on her small salary and work long hours. She leaves the house around 6:30 a.m. and usually comes home around 5 p.m. or even 6 p.m. However, I want her to know that by becoming a doctor, 5 I’d rather follow my dreams and create my own future.

請(qǐng)從下列句子中選擇正確的一項(xiàng)填到相應(yīng)位置。

A. it doesn’t mean I’ll be successful.

B. I don’t know how to answer her.

C. I wants to achieve a career because I love it.

D. I don’t want to do any job related to science either.

E. I understand why my mother is worried about my future major.

Overwork is the main reason why so many students feel tired and stressed. Cut down some of the jobs you need to do each day so that you can only focus on the most important things. Leave time for activities that are relaxing and fun. This might mean reading a good booklistening to the music, going for a walk or taking a relaxing bath.

1. Getting enough sleep will help you keep your body and mind in the best form. If you stay up late and need to get up early for school the next day, you may not be able to focus on the things you need to do.
