Friend is better than fortune. Friend is worse than poison in some cases. The two sentences above are opposite and seem to be unreasonable but they can be explained as follows: the first refers to all good friends who drive us towards good while the second all bad ones who lead us to wrong ways.
My ideal(理想的) friend is of course a good friend whose goodness is shown below---He has no bad likings, such as smoking and drinking. He lives in frugality(节俭). He studies hard so as not to waste his golden time. At home he honors his parents and loves his brothers; at school he respects his teachers and shares feelings of his classmates. He treats those truly who are true to him. In a word, he has all the good characters better than mine. I can follow him as a model. With his help I am free from all difficulties,
Indeed, if I have such a person as my friend, I shall never fear difficulty and I shall never know the existence of the word failure.

B
Going to sleep may seem pretty boring compared with all the fun things there are to do while you re awake. But there s a lot going on in your mind and body while you re tucked under those covers.
Sleep, in fact, is as important to your survival (生存) as eating and drinking. Sleep improves your mood, makes you a better athlete, and helps you remember and understand what you learned during the day. During sleep your temperature drops. Your heart rate slows. Down goes the pressure of the blood moving through your veins. A chemical that controls growth (called a hormone) surges into your bloodstream. Scientists think sleep restores energy and boosts (improves) your immune (免疫) system. We know what happens while were asleep because scientists study volunteers who sleep in laboratories. The sleepers are hooked (钩) up to machines that measure brain waves, eye movements and muscle activities.
Sleep is like a school day: its divided into different periods, or stages. When youre awake, your brain waves fire rapidly. As you begin to relax and drift into the first stage of sleep, your brain produces slower-moving waves and you lose awareness of your surroundings. As you slide to deeper sleep, your body repairs itself from the normal wear and tear of daily life. Then, as you begin to drift back up to a lighter sieep, your mind becomes more alert (机警), and your dreams begin. Youre in REM sleep.
REM was names far the rapid eye movement that happens while youre dreaming. During REM sleep, your eyes move back and forth behind your timed lids, as though you were washing a movie. During other stages, you might move at--at in bed, but during REM sleep youre still. Thats probably because if you could move, your body would act out your dreams. As you get closer to morning, you spend more time in REM than in deep sleep, so you dream more. Researchers know that during REM sleep the part of the brain that handles learning and thinking is very active.
Getting too little sleep can affect your personality. Experts recommend that children get at least nine hours d sleep a night. So sleep fight.
60. What does the word recommend in the last paragraph mean?
  A. Suggest.    B. Ask.        C. Wish.           D. Order
61. Sleep has many advantages except __________.
A. improving your mood           B. making you strong
C. helping you study         D. practicing your eyes
62. During your sleep, _____________
① your body repairs itself from the normal wear and tear of daily life
② your brain produces slower-moving waves 
③ your dream begins 
④ you loose awareness of surroundings
Choose the right order:
A.①③②④     B. ②④①③   C. ④①③②        D. ④③①②
63. Suppose this is the course of your sleep, in which part of the course do you have dreams?




(A: light sleep   B: deep sleep C: light sleep   D: the whole course)
64. Which of the following is NOT right?
A. Hormone has something to do with your growth.
B. You cannot move while you are in REM sleep, dreaming.
C. The closer to morning, the more dreams you have.
D. You may move around in your bed during your sleep.

What makes a good school? Many people would agree that a good school is one that gets the best out of its pupils. Yet not every pupil can get straight as in his or her exams. What is most important is the individual development of the child and not the general academic success of the school. Yet how can this be measured and improvements made? This question has been at the heart of my work for the last 20 years. All the facts shows that the quality of an individual school can make a significant difference to its pupils’ prospects (前途) in life. My definition(定义) of a good school is one in which students progress further than might be expected considering their social background. Inner-city school, for example, despite receiving many socially-disadvantaged pupils, can still be successful in encouraging their students to progress.
We should recognize that the effectiveness of a school can only be considered in relation to its typical intake(吸入量). Researchers have discovered a number of factors commonly connected with good schools. There are few surprises among a collection which includes professional leadership, high expectations, and a concentration on teaching and learning. Recognition of the importance of pupils’ rights and responsibilities and parental involvement is also important.
67.The underlined word this question refers to a search for ___________.
A. what qualities make a good school
B. why we have to get the best out of pupils
C. the way to make a school the most academically outstanding
D. how to measure school effectiveness
68.According to the writer, a good school _________________.
A. makes a significant difference to pupils’ prospects
B. helps to encourage socially-disadvantaged students to progress
C. helps pupils to achieve their academic success
D. helps pupils progress beyond their natural abilities
69.The factors proved by researchers as being connected with effective schools are
_________.
A. surprising   B. expected   C. scientific    D. new
70. The fact that some schools are less successful academically than others may be due
in part to their _______.
A. complexity (复杂)of structure    B. mixture of policies
C. intake of less able students     D. poor standard of school staff（员工）

E
Does anyone know who really shot the president?
HE was killed 40 years ago. Since then his memory has been clouded by dark tales of affairs with the likes of Marilyn Monroe (玛莉莲·梦露), and links with the Mafia (黑手党).
But the myth (神话) of John F. Kennedy, the 35th President of the US, will not disappear. As America marked the anniversary of his death in Dallas, Texas, on November 22, 1963, questions were still being asked.
The official conclusion was that Lee Harvey Oswald, who worked at a Dallas book storehouse, murdered Kennedy. But all kinds of other ideas have been put forward as to what happened and why.
Some people believe Oswald was a madman, who spent some time in Russia and was an admirer of Fidel Castro, president of Cuba. It is said he was inspired by the James Bond spy novels and killed Kennedy as a gift for Castro.
But Oswalds brother thought he was a sad and lonely man who murdered the president to get attention and show off his shooting skills.
Meanwhile, some experts say that Oswald was really aiming for Texas Governor John Connally. He is said to have been angry with Connally, who was also secretary of the navy, over how he had been forced to leave the service.
A large number of people think the truth has been covered up on purpose; even now, surveys show that more than half of Americans believe that Oswald was not working alone. An investigation (调查) found that four shots were fired, with one shot coming from the building that Oswald was in.
But two days after the murder, Oswald himself was killed by Jack Rubinstein, a nightclub owner. Rubinstein had Mafia connections and this has led to the theory that they were actually responsible for killing Kennedy.
Lyndon Johnson, who became president after Kennedy, has also been accused of being behind it all. According to reports, Johnson was sworn in (宣誓就职) even before Kennedys death was announced. We have a really tough decision that we dont want to face. There was a conspiracy (合谋) and people want an answer, said Barr McClellan, who has written a book about the murder.
The myth is very powerful. said Robert Dallek, a historian at Boston University, who has just published a book about Kennedy. He was the first president to appear on television. He is frozen in our minds aged 46, forever young, energetic and charming.
71. Why does the writer mention the dark tales about Kennedy? To show that ______­.
A.   though he is popular, he wasn’t perfect
B.   even though he wasn’t perfect, he is still popular
C.   rumours (谣言) are human nature
D.  in America, presidents don’t have much privacy (隐私)
72. Which of the following was the major question being asked on the 40th anniversary of Kennedy’s death?
A.  What has made Kennedy an American myth?
B.   Why was he linked to the Mafia?
C.  Did Oswald murder him?
D.  Who killed Kennedy?
73. Which of the following can be used to replace the phrase “put forward” in Paragraph 3?
A. made up          B. designed  C. suggested        D. inspired
74. Which of the following statements about Lee Oswald is wrong?
A.   He only fired one shot.
B.   One shot fired at Kennedy was from the sixth floor of the building he was in.
C.   He was an employee of a book storehouse in Dallas, Texas.
D.  He once served in the American navy, but he was forced to leave.
75. Which of the following will the writer probably write about following the last paragraph?
A.  What he achieved as a president.
B.   What else makes Kennedy a mythical figure.
C.  What happened after his death.
D.  His affairs with the likes of Marilyn Monroe and the Mafia.

One day Li Ping was riding fast when she suddenly saw an old woman before her. But it was too late to stop immediately. The old woman was knocked down. Li Pin didn’t help her. Instead, she scolded her and rode away.
When Li Ping stopped her bicycle, she was surprised to find her new shoes missing. She hurried back and found the old woman there holding her shoes in her hands. She was sorry for what she had done and apologized to the woman .
From this, I learned everybody should be kind to each other. Never do as Li Pin did to the old, or you will feel greatly sorry.
