My senior years, I can’t believe it is almost over. Now when I look back, it was stressful, but exciting, the ball, graduation, and then of course, college.
I started applying for my college months before Christmas. My parents told me it would be smart if I set up interviews and tours. But I wasn’t motivated. I wanted to go to college, but I didn’t want to deal with the stress.
As the days flew by, my applications lay on my desk just as I had left them three months before. “You are wasting valuable time,” my parents complained. Sweeping away the gathered dust on the applications, I worked on them every Sunday until I finished. Next came writing the essays. I had many ideas, but every school had different requirements. I changed them until I was pleased. Finally, everything was underway.
Now I just had to wait. In March, I started receiving letters of rejection. I began to think that I had set myself up for disappointment. I had a letter from Salem State College starting that they wanted to see my grades before they made their decision. Yes! At least someone wanted to consider me. At the beginning of April, I received a letter from Keens State. Those opening words: “We regret to inform you…” made me sit down and cry. I had lost all hope. Then I heard from Plymouth State. Not my first choice, but…I had been accepted. Maybe if I get my grades up, I can choose another school…
The college application hurt me deeply. All my friends had dozens of schools to choose from. I guess my parents were right. High school grades are undoubtedly important to your future plans. If I could do it all over again, I would take it more seriously.
4. What does the sentence “We regret to inform you…” mean
A. The writer was accepted by the college.
B The writer couldn’t go to college forever.
C. The writer couldn’t go to any college.
D. The writer was rejected by the college.
5. From the last paragraph, we know the writer felt ________.
A. honorable B. regretful（遗憾的）
C. hopeless D. happy
6. From the text, we know that ________.
A. the writer didn’t go to a college
B. the writer thought senior years was easy
C. the writer didn’t desire to go to college.
D. the writer didn’t prepare interviews actively
7. Why was the writer rejected by many colleges
A He didn’t choose a good college.
B. He got bad grades in senior years.
C. He wanted to deal with the stress.
D. Every school had different requirements.
C
A large number of India’s urban(城区的) poor kids receive little or no education. Even if they enter a formal school, their dropout rates are very high. Door Step School (DSS) aims to bridge the huge gap between these kids and education.
True to its name, Door Step School sets up a school right at the doorstep of kids who can’t get formal education due to a variety of reasons.
The team at DSS follows a direct model—they set up a classroom in any area, a footpath, construction site, or underpass, where they foresee the greatest need. They look for proper locations, and after making sure that enough resources are in place, they accept students in the area. DSS provides lessons of different levels. The organization even tries to provide classes in the local language, or whatever the students choose.
Another interesting project of DSS is a school on wheels. It uses a bus that has been changed into a classroom, which holds about 25 kids at a time.
Since it was started in 1988, Door Step School has spread from Mumbai to the neighbouring city of Pune in Maharashtra, covering a larger area and number of kids. Now DSS has a team of more than 1,000 volunteers and teachers who change more than 70,000 lives each year.
DSS doesn’t end at kids. The organisation educates parents on the importance of sending their kids to school. Its efforts have brought education to thousands of students in the last two decades. Their belief in education for all has not only changed children’s lives but also continued the fight against one of the biggest problems India faces. All children have the right to an education, and DSS is providing just that.
8. Why is the organization named “Door Step School”
A. It is different from formal schools.
B. It is usually built near students’ houses.
C. It sets up schools in areas with large populations.
D. It provides education wherever children can easily go.
9. What can we learn about the lessons provided by “Door Step School”
A. They are better than formal school lessons.
B. They include whatever a school can provide.
C. They suit children at different levels.
D. They are easy for kids to learn by themselves.
10. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about
A. The development of Door Step School.
B. The foundation of Door Step School.
C. The management of Door Step School.
D. The future of Door Step School.
11. It can be inferred that one of the biggest problems India faces is that _______.
A. there are no formal schools B. many children receive no education
C. children refuse to attend schools D. the country is short of teachers
D
A new study suggests some of America’s favorite Independence Day fireworks can give out lead and copper (铜), which are used to give fireworks their vivid colors, and also damage human cells and animal lungs.
Led by researchers at NYU, the study showed poisonous levels of lead in the fireworks. Experiments showed that lung exposure to particle emissions (颗粒排放物) from five types of fireworks significantly increased oxidation (氧化), a chemical process in the body that can damage or even kill cells.
The researchers say the new study is believed to be the first to examine the effects of firework exposure in human cells and living animals, and to test for particles of common firework metals thrown into the atmosphere.
“While many are careful to protect themselves from injury from explosions, our results suggest that inhaling firework smoke may cause, longer-term physical damage, a risk that has been largely ignored,” says study senior author Terry Gordon, a professor in the Department of Environmental Medicine.
Gordon and his team also analyzed 14 air quality samples taken at dozens of sites across the US throughout each year. They found that levels of poisonous metals were higher in samples taken on Independence Day and New Year’s Eve celebrations than at any other time of the year. Along with lead, copper and other poisonous metals are commonly found in fireworks. “Our research shows that although we are only exposed to these poisonous substances for a short time each year, they are much more poisonous than the pollutants we breathe every day,” says Gordon.
Gordon cautions (警告) that the current investigation is the first step, only addressing the potential effects of one-time exposure to the firework metals. He says repeated exposure is likely a larger concern. Nevertheless, he is planning to share his findings with local health officials, firework producers, the Environmental Protection Agent, and other regulatory agents to alert them to the potential for harm.
12. Why do some fireworks harm our health
A. They are oxidized in the air.
B. They can give out harmful metals.
C. They are exposed to particle emissions.
D. They can melt chemical substances in the body.
13. What does the underlined word “inhaling” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Letting out. B. Working out.
C. Taking in. D. Blowing off.
14. What can we infer from Gordon’s research findings
A. Fireworks are the main cause of air pollution.
B. Air quality on New Year’s Eve is above normal.
C. People breathe in poisonous air for a short time daily.
D. Air pollution on Independence Day is worse than usual.
15. What does Gordon intend to do with fireworks-related persons
A. Remind them not to set off fireworks.
B. Caution them against producing metals.
C. Alert them to the harm of the experiment.
D. Warn them of the possible dangers of fireworks.

Recently, I went to a hospital to visit a friend of mine. After I got there, I began to look for a parking spot. But it was not easy to find one. Finally, I managed to park my car near the entrance of the hospital. As I got out to pay for the parking fee, I noticed a man searching his pockets for some change. He searched everywhere but couldn’t find any. “Do you need any help ” I asked. “Yes. I left my house in a hurry and forgot to take any change with me,” he said in an embarrassed voice. I took out some change and handed it to him, saying, “Here, take it.” “Thank you so much,” he said gratefully while taking the change from me. I smiled and left. I loved helping others and didn’t think much about it.
Before returning home, I went to the grocery store first, because there was almost nothing left in the fridge. The store was a twenty-minute drive away from my house, so I wanted to buy food for at least two days. I took a shopping cart and started filling it. Half an hour later, my shopping cart was almost full. I pushed it to the checkout counter and paid for all.

My senior years, I can’t believe it is almost over. Now when I look back, it was stressful, but exciting, the ball, graduation, and then of course, college.
I started applying for my college months before Christmas. My parents told me it would be smart if I set up interviews and tours. But I wasn’t motivated. I wanted to go to college, but I didn’t want to deal with the stress.
As the days flew by, my applications lay on my desk just as I had left them three months before. “You are wasting valuable time,” my parents complained. Sweeping away the gathered dust on the applications, I worked on them every Sunday until I finished. Next came writing the essays. I had many ideas, but every school had different requirements. I changed them until I was pleased. Finally, everything was underway.
Now I just had to wait. In March, I started receiving letters of rejection. I began to think that I had set myself up for disappointment. I had a letter from Salem State College starting that they wanted to see my grades before they made their decision. Yes! At least someone wanted to consider me. At the beginning of April, I received a letter from Keens State. Those opening words: “We regret to inform you…” made me sit down and cry. I had lost all hope. Then I heard from Plymouth State. Not my first choice, but…I had been accepted. Maybe if I get my grades up, I can choose another school…
The college application hurt me deeply. All my friends had dozens of schools to choose from. I guess my parents were right. High school grades are undoubtedly important to your future plans. If I could do it all over again, I would take it more seriously.
4. What does the sentence “We regret to inform you…” mean
A. The writer was accepted by the college.
B. The writer couldn’t go to college forever.
C. The writer couldn’t go to any college.
D. The writer was rejected by the college.
5. From the last paragraph, we know the writer felt ________.
A. honorable B. regretful（遗憾的）
C. hopeless D. happy
6. From the text, we know that ________.
A. the writer didn’t go to a college
B. the writer thought senior years was easy
C. the writer didn’t desire to go to college.
D. the writer didn’t prepare interviews actively
7. Why was the writer rejected by many colleges
A. He didn’t choose a good college.
B. He got bad grades in senior years.
C. He wanted to deal with the stress.
D. Every school had different requirements.
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. D 7. B

【4题详解】
词句猜测题。 根据倒数第二段“Those opening words: “We regret to inform you…” made me sit down and cry. I had lost all hope. Then I heard from Plymouth State. Not my first choice, but…I had been accepted. Maybe if I get my grades up, I can choose another school…”（那些开场白:“我们很遗憾地通知你……”让我坐下来哭泣。 我失去了所有的希望。 然后我收到了普利茅斯大学的来信。 虽然不是我的首选，但我被录取了。 也许如果我的成绩提高了，我可以选择另一所学校…… ）可知作者没有被这所学校录取，即作者被这所学校拒绝了。故选D。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The college application hurt me deeply. All my friends had dozens of schools to choose from. I guess my parents were right.

【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“But I wasn’t motivated. I wanted to go to college, but I didn’t want to deal with the stress.”（但我没有动力。 我想上大学，但我不想应对压力）和第三段“As the days flew by, my applications lay on my desk just as I had left them three months before.”（日子一天天过去，我的申请表还像三个月前离开时一样躺在我的桌子上）可知作者没有积极准备面试。故选D。

A large number of India’s urban(城区的) poor kids receive little or no education. Even if they enter a formal school, their dropout rates are very high. Door Step School (DSS) aims to bridge the huge gap between these kids and education.
True to its name, Door Step School sets up a school right at the doorstep of kids who can’t get formal education due to a variety of reasons.
The team at DSS follows a direct model—they set up a classroom in any area, a footpath, construction site, or underpass, where they foresee the greatest need. They look for proper locations, and after making sure that enough resources are in place, they accept students in the area. DSS provides lessons of different levels. The organization even tries to provide classes in the local language, or whatever the students choose.
Another interesting project of DSS is a school on wheels. It uses a bus that has been changed into a classroom, which holds about 25 kids at a time.
Since it was started in 1988, Door Step School has spread from Mumbai to the neighbouring city of Pune in Maharashtra, covering a larger area and number of kids. Now DSS has a team of more than 1,000 volunteers and teachers who change more than 70,000 lives each year.
DSS doesn’t end at kids. The organisation educates parents on the importance of sending their kids to school. Its efforts have brought education to thousands of students in the last two decades. Their belief in education for all has not only changed children’s lives but also continued the fight against one of the biggest problems India faces. All children have the right to an education, and DSS is providing just that.
8. Why is the organization named “Door Step School”
A. It is different from formal schools.
B. It is usually built near students’ houses.
C. It sets up schools in areas with large populations.
D. It provides education wherever children can easily go.
9. What can we learn about the lessons provided by “Door Step School”
A. They are better than formal school lessons.
B. They include whatever a school can provide.
C. They suit children at different levels.
D. They are easy for kids to learn by themselves.
10. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about
A. The development of Door Step School.
B. The foundation of Door Step School.
C. The management of Door Step School.
D. The future of Door Step School.
11. It can be inferred that one of the biggest problems India faces is that _______.
A. there are no formal schools B. many children receive no education
C. children refuse to attend schools D. the country is short of teachers
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍DSS学校，一所专门为那些由于各种原因无法接受正规教育的孩子们在家门口提供教育的学校。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章“True to its name, Door Step School sets up a school right at the doorstep of kids who can’t get formal education due to a variety of reasons.” 正如它的名字一样，DSS学校在那些由于各种原因无法接受正规教育的孩子们的家门口设立了一所学校。可知DSS学校设立学校都是在方便孩子去上学的地方，故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章“DSS provides lessons of different levels.” DSS 提供不同级别的课程。可知DSS学校提供的课程适合不同水平的孩子，故选C。
【10题详解】
段落大意题。“Since it was started in 1988, Door Step School has spread from Mumbai to the neighboring city of Pune in Maharashtra, covering a larger area and number of kids. Now DSS has a team of more than 1,000 volunteers and teachers who change more than 70,000 lives each year. ” 自从1988年开办以来，DSS学校已经从Mumbai扩展到邻近的Maharashtra的Pune市，覆盖了更大的地区和更多的孩子。现在，DSS有一个由1000多名志愿者和教师组成的团队，他们每年改变7万多人的生活。第五段主要讲述DSS自1988年成立到目前的发展情况，故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章“Their belief in education for all has not only changed children’s lives but also continued the fight against one of the biggest problems India faces. All children have the right to an education, and DSS is providing just that.” 他们对全民教育的信念不仅改变了孩子们的生活，而且继续与印度面临的最大问题之一作斗争。所有儿童都有受教育的权利，而DSS正是提供这种权利。由此可以推断印度面临的最大问题就是很多孩子没有接受教育，所以DSS目的就是要给没有接受教育的孩子提供教育，故选B。

A new study suggests some of America’s favorite Independence Day fireworks can give out lead and copper (铜), which are used to give fireworks their vivid colors, and also damage human cells and animal lungs.
Led by researchers at NYU, the study showed poisonous levels of lead in the fireworks. Experiments showed that lung exposure to particle emissions (颗粒排放物) from five types of fireworks significantly increased oxidation (氧化), a chemical process in the body that can damage or even kill cells.
The researchers say the new study is believed to be the first to examine the effects of firework exposure in human cells and living animals, and to test for particles of common firework metals thrown into the atmosphere.
“While many are careful to protect themselves from injury from explosions, our results suggest that inhaling firework smoke may cause, longer-term physical damage, a risk that has been largely ignored,” says study senior author Terry Gordon, a professor in the Department of Environmental Medicine.
Gordon and his team also analyzed 14 air quality samples taken at dozens of sites across the US throughout each year. They found that levels of poisonous metals were higher in samples taken on Independence Day and New Year’s Eve celebrations than at any other time of the year. Along with lead, copper and other poisonous metals are commonly found in fireworks. “Our research shows that although we are only exposed to these poisonous substances for a short time each year, they are much more poisonous than the pollutants we breathe every day,” says Gordon.
Gordon cautions (警告) that the current investigation is the first step, only addressing the potential effects of one-time exposure to the firework metals. He says repeated exposure is likely a larger concern. Nevertheless, he is planning to share his findings with local health officials, firework producers, the Environmental Protection Agent, and other regulatory agents to alert them to the potential for harm.
12. Why do some fireworks harm our health
A. They are oxidized in the air.
B. They can give out harmful metals.
C. They are exposed to particle emissions.
D. They can melt chemical substances in the body.
13. What does the underlined word “inhaling” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Letting out. B. Working out.
C. Taking in. D. Blowing off.
14. What can we infer from Gordon’s research findings
A. Fireworks are the main cause of air pollution.
B. Air quality on New Year’s Eve is above normal.
C. People breathe in poisonous air for a short time daily.
D. Air pollution on Independence Day is worse than usual.
15. What does Gordon intend to do with fireworks-related persons
A. Remind them not to set off fireworks.
B. Caution them against producing metals.
C. Alert them to the harm of the experiment.
D. Warn them of the possible dangers of fireworks.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。一项科学研究表明烟花燃烧释放出的金属元素会造成空气污染，也会损害人类和动物的健康，同时还存在其他潜在危害。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“A new study suggests some of America’s favorite Independence Day fireworks can give out lead and copper (铜), which are used to give fireworks their vivid colors, and also damage human cells and animal lungs.(一项新的研究表明，美国最受欢迎的一些独立日烟火会释放出铅和铜，这两种元素被用来使烟火呈现鲜艳的颜色，还会损害人体细胞和动物肺部)”可知，烟花对健康有害是因为燃放所释放的有害金属。故选B。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段划线词所在句“our results suggest that inhaling firework smoke may cause, longer-term physical damage, a risk that has been largely ignored(我们的研究结果表明，吸入烟花的烟雾可能会造成长期的身体损害，这一风险在很大程度上被忽略了)”中的“smoke烟雾”可知，烟雾被吸入人体内才会造成伤害.由此推知，划线词inhaling表示“吸入”，与Taking in同义。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段第二句“They found that levels of poisonous metals were higher in samples taken on Independence Day and New Year’s Eve celebrations than at any other time of the year.(他们发现，在独立日和新年前夕采集的样本中，有毒金属的含量比一年中其他任何时候都要高)”可推知，空气污染在独立日比平常更严重。故选D。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一句“Nevertheless, he is planning to share his findings with local health officials, firework producers, the Environmental Protection Agent, and other regulatory agents to alert them to the potential for harm.(然而，他计划将他的发现与当地卫生官员、烟花生产商、环境保护机构和其他监管机构分享，提醒他们烟花的潜在危害)”可知，Gordon准备将发现结果告知与烟花相关的人员，告诉他们烟花可能带来的危险。故选D。

Recently, I went to a hospital to visit a friend of mine. After I got there, I began to look for a parking spot. But it was not easy to find one. Finally, I managed to park my car near the entrance of the hospital. As I got out to pay for the parking fee, I noticed a man searching his pockets for some change. He searched everywhere but couldn’t find any. “Do you need any help ” I asked. “Yes. I left my house in a hurry and forgot to take any change with me,” he said in an embarrassed voice. I took out some change and handed it to him, saying, “Here, take it.” “Thank you so much,” he said gratefully while taking the change from me. I smiled and left. I loved helping others and didn’t think much about it.
Before returning home, I went to the grocery store first, because there was almost nothing left in the fridge. The store was a twenty-minute drive away from my house, so I wanted to buy food for at least two days. I took a shopping cart and started filling it. Half an hour later, my shopping cart was almost full. I pushed it to the checkout counter and paid for all.
