Hillside
Secondary School year is divided into two 18-week semesters. Semester one runs
from September to the end of January. Semester two runs from February to late
June.
The school
day runs from 8 : 45 a. m. to 3 : 15 p. m. and is made up of five 78-minute
periods. Students take four classes and have one period for lunch.
In
February, 2000, the school introduced a new system of computerized attendance
in order to provide accurate records of student lates and absences and to
enable communication with parents.
Student
evaluation is a continual process based upon class performance, tests, homework
and reports, as well as special projects or formal examinations held at the end
of the semester. There will be at least three reports to parents during each
semester. After five weeks of class, students carry Early-bird Report home. The
semester one Parent/Teacher interview date appears on this report. Mid-term
Report is at the ninth week. Marks are then calculated. Mid-term Reports are
prepared and mailed in mid November and late April. Students with marks under
60?ter 11 weeks of class will receive an In-Danger Report to remind them
that more effort is required as well as careful preparation for final exams.
Those notices are mailed home. Final Reports are mailed home in February and
July.
The
Newsletter is an excellent way for the school to communicate with parents. In
addition to providing a profile of our many activities, it contains key dates
and information-upcoming events such as parent interviews or exams, changes
being considered at the school. Messages from school office-Parents regularly
tell us they value and appreciate learning about what is happening in their
children’s school. Parents receive four newsletters each year. Keep them on the
refrigerator!
56.Each semester, the parents may get
at least from
the school.
A.an Early – bird Report, a Mid –
term Report and the Newsletters.
B.an Early – bird Report, a Mid –
term Report and the Final Report.
C.a Mid – term Report, an In – Danger
Report and a Final Report.
D.a Mid – term Report, a Final Report
and the Newsletters.
57.We can infer from the passage that .
A.parents get little information
about their children’s performance at school
B.a student has to spend more than 5
periods learning lessons at school.
C.both school and parents think
highly of the newsletters.
D.students with a mark above 95%
might fail the exams
58.The purpose in writing this passage
is .
A.to tell about the contents in
different report cards to parents
B.to tell about the duration of a
school year and a school day
C.to introduce a new method to record
student attendance

The results
of the US/NATO bombing of Yugoslavia are to be judged by history. I shall not
be the one to do it. But being in the center of actual events that are creating
that history, I cannot stay away from what is going on in my country.
First of
all, the aim of the bombing was to prevent a human suffering in Kosovo. Today,
after many days of frequent bombing, that aim is more distant than before. The
bombing only brought tens of thousands of people running away from their homes.
Not to mention the large number of the death and injury, buildings and
factories. Suppose that the US/NATO really had a wish to prevent the human
suffering, they should realize they were wrong when they thought the bombing
would solve the problem.
So, what’s
left? Back off or ground troops? But who is going to join the ground troops? It
would take at least 200,000 armed soldiers, not the 20,000 that the US/NATO
have prepared in Macedonian. It should also be clear that the Serbs(塞族)will not give up on Kosovo.
I live
under continuous bombing for more than a week now. And it doesn’t frighten me
any more. I don’t turn to the shelter at the sound of warning. It’s the thought
of ground troops that frightens me. Vietnam would seem like a picnic
compared to a bloodshed in Kosovo if the ground troops appear. Is that what
the US/NATO wants?
59.Which of the following statements
is true?
A.The US/NATO really intends to stop the human
suffering.
B.The result of the war will be
judged by people in Kosovo.
C.The bombing made tens of thousands
of people homeless.
D.The continuous bombing will make
the Serbs give up of Kosovo.
60.What worries the writer most?
A.The continuous bombing. B.The coming of ground troops.
C.The sound of bomb warning. D.The idea of ground troops.
61.What’s the writer’s attitude
towards the bombing in Kosovo?
A.It is the US/NATO ’s duty to defend
Kosovo.
B.It is wrong to solve the problem by
bombing Kosovo.
C.The aim of bombing Kosovo is to
stop a human suffering.
D.The bombing can solve the problem
on Kosovo.
62.The underlined sentence means .
A.the war in Vietnam wasn’t serious
at all
B.the war in Vietnam was different
from that in Kosovo.
C.the US will send more troops to
Kosovo than that to Vietnam
D.ground troops to Kosovo will cause
an even greater disaster
C
For
centuries, people wondered how big the Earth was. Unfortunately, as long as
they thought the Earth was flat, no one was able to figure out its size.
Gradually, however, people began to realize that the Earth was really round.
Then, in
the third century BC(2,300 years ago), a Greek man named Eratosthenes had an idea. Eratosthenes was sure
that the Earth was a sphere. He used the sun and geometry to figure out the
size of the Earth. He calculated that the circumference of the Earth was 28,600
miles(46,000
kilometers).The true
size of the Earth is 25,000 miles(40,000 kilometers).Eratosthenes’ measurement was
wrong, but it was very close to the truth.
For many
centuries after Eratoshenes lived, people made maps of the Earth. However, they
did not know very much about the world outside of Europe, Asia, and north
Africa. Mapmakers could not draw accurate maps of the Earth until people began
traveling around the world in the fifteenth century, mapping small areas each
time. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, people began making correct
maps of countries, but the first accurate maps of the world were not made until
the 1890s.
Maps today
are reliable, inexpensive, and easy to understand. People depend on maps every
day. What would our lives be like without them?
63.A sphere is a .
A.large shape B.planet
C.ball D.member of the sun family
64.What’s a synonym(同义词)for figure out?
A.geometry B.calculate C.make out D.understand
65.Look at the four drawings below.
Which one shows the circumference of the Earth?
66.A measurement is a .
A.calculation B.kilometer C.true statement D.wrong statement
67.Accurate means .
A.big B.nice C.small D.correct

Dear Bill,
Very glad
to receive your letter of July 13. Thank you for your congratulations. I was
very excited when I heard that Beijing won the bid for the 2008 Olympic Games
two years ago. I called Wei Guo and Li Hong to my house. After a brief
discussion we decided to put up a wall newspaper for our class. We hurried to
our classroom and began to work. Wei Guo wrote a poem. Li Hong copied some news
from the newspapers. I drew an Olympic flag. The next Monday, our classmates
were both surprised and overjoyed when they saw the wall newspaper.
I hope you
can come to China to watch the Olympic Games in 2008. Then I’ll be very happy
to be your guide.
Sincerely
yours.

Rodio
and television are very popular in the world today. Millions of people watch
TV. TV is of course more useful than radio. On TV people can see and hear what
is happening in the world.
Now
radio is still with us. And the number of listeners is becoming larger. One
reason for this is the invention of the transistor radio. A transistor radio is
easy to carry. You can put it in your pocket and listen to it on the bus or on
your bike when you go to work.
Radio
is better for blind people, for old people whose sight is not good enough to
watch TV, and for people who are busy working. What is more, radio is much
cheaper than TV.

A
student is learning to speak British English. He wonders: Can I communicate
with Americans? Can they understand me? Learners of English often ask: What are
the differences between British and American English? How important are these
differences?
Certainly,
there are some differences between British and American English. There are a
few differences in grammar. For example, the British say“in hospital”and“Have you a pen?”Americans say“in the hospital”and“Do you have a
pen?”Pronunciation
is sometimes different. Americans usually sound the r’s in words like“bird”and“hurt”.Some speakers of British English
do not sound the r’s in these words. There are differences between British and
American English in spelling and vocabulary. For example, “colour” and“honour”are British.“color”and“honor”are American.
These
differences in grammar, pronunciation, spelling, and vocabulary are not
important, however. For the most part, British and American English are the
same language.
