There’s a box of chocolates in the fridge. It’s been there for more than a week since I was given it as a present. I do love chocolates, but they make me fat if I eat too many! Can I control myself? If I eat one, will I have to eat all of them?

My son Harry is obsessed with playing Wii(/wi:/, 任天堂的一款游戲機) games. Sometimes, it’s difficult to get him to concentrate on his homework because he wants to play some more.

Last week I had to wake up a student in my class. I asked him why he was so tried and he said he had stayed up late to play his favourite Internet game, Farmville. He said he just couldn’t stop playing it! Now his academic work is suffering because he can’t control his urge to play games.

What my son, my student, and I myself need is simply self-control.

In the late 1960’s, American psychologist Walter Mischel launched an experiment about self-control. He left a group of four-year-olds in a room and told them that if they could wait 20 minutes, they could have two marshmallows, a kind of sweet. If they couldn’t wait, he would only give them one.

In videos of the experiment, you can see children squirming, kicking, hiding their eyes—desperately trying to control themselves. Some did wait patiently, while others couldn’t wait a single minute.

Years later, the self-controlled children turned out to get higher SAT scores and got into better colleges. The children who couldn’t wait were more likely to become bullies.

So, the chocolates are still in the fridge. My son Harry is doing his homework with a promise that he can play on the Wii later, and my student says he will try harder to control himself. We all have our own temptations. But if we can control them, we will achieve more.

1. Which of the following is different from the other three?

A. The writer. B. Harry. C. The writer’s student. D. Walter Mischel.

2. We can know from paragraph 5 to paragraph 7 that _________

A. all the children got two marshmallows

B. all the children waited patiently

C. self-control can help children succeed later

D. the children who lack self-control get higher SAT scores

3. Which of the following statement is true?

A. The writer is addicted to Wii.

B. The writer’s son is addicted to Farmville.

C. The writer’s student is addicted to chocolates.

D. The writer’s student is addicted to Farmville.

4. What does the underlined word mean in paragraph 5?

A. Something we can eat. B. A kind of toy.

C. A kind of mushroom. D. A kind of prize.

閱讀理解

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項。

　　The decision of the New York philharmonic to hire Alan Gilbert as its next music director has been the talk of the classical-music world ever since the sudden announcement of his appointment．For the most part, the response has been favorable, to say the least “Hooray! At last!” wrote Anthony Tommasini, a classical-music critic．

　　One of the reason why the appointment came as such a surprise, however, is that Gilbert is comparatively little known．Even Tommasini, who had advocated Gilbert's appointment in the Times, calls him “an musician with no air of the formidable(令人敬畏的)conductor about him．” As a description of the next music director of an orchestra that has so far been led by musicians like Gustav Mahler and Pierre Boulez, that seems likely to have struck at least some Times readers as faint praise．

　　For my part, I have no idea whether Gilbert is a great conductor or even a good one．To be sure, he performs an impressive variety of interesting compositions, but it is not necessary for me to visit Avery Fisher Hall, or anywhere else, to hear interesting orchestral music．All I have to do is to go to my CD shelf, or open my computer and download still more recorded music from iTunes．

　　Devoted concertgoers who reply that recording are no substitute for live performance are missing the point．For the time, attention, and money of the art-loving public, classical instrumentalists(演奏家) must compete not only with opera houses, dance groups , theater companies, and museums, but also with the recorded performances of the great classical musicians of the 20 th century．Their recordings are cheap, available everywhere, and very often much higher in artistic quality than today's choosing．The widespread availability of such recording has thus brought about a crisis in the institution of the traditional classical concert．

　　One possible response is for classical performers to program attractive new music that is not yet available on records．Gilbert's own interest in new music has been widely noted：Alex Ross , a classical-music critic, has described him as a man who is capable of turning the Philharmonic into “a markedly different, more energetic organization”．But what will be the nature of that difference? Merely, expanding the orchestra's repertoire(曲目)will not be enough．If Gilbert and the Philharmonic are to succeed, they must first change the relationship between America's oldest orchestra and the new audience it hopes to attract．

(1)

We learn from Para 1 that Gilbert's appointment has ________．
[　　]
A．	met with criticism
B．	received applause
C．	raised suspicion
D．	aroused curiosity

(2)

The author believes that the devoted concertgoers ________．
[　　]
A．	reject most kinds of recorded performance
B．	fail to recognize the variety of live performance
C．	overestimate(高估)the variety of live performance
D．	ignore the expense of live performance

(3)

According to the text, which of the following is true of recordings?
[　　]
A．	They are often inferior to live concerts in quality
B．	They are easily accessible to the general public
C．	They help improve the quality of music
D．	They have only covered masterpieces

(4)

Regarding Gilbert's role in revitalizing( 振興) the Philharmonic, the author feels ________
[　　]
A．	enthusiastic
B．	confident
C．	puzzled
D．	doubtful

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中，選出最佳選項。

　　Becoming a teacher is one of the best ways to make a difference in the life of a child and even older students．Here are some great scholarships and grant opportunities to get the ball rolling on your dreams of becoming a teacher．

　　Straightforward Teacher Program

　　This is one of the most popular and unique scholarships available for students working towards becoming teachers．The foundation offers their scholarships every three months as opposed to each year．During each payment, four students receive a ＄500 scholarship．

　　Prezell Robinson Scholarship Program

　　While this scholarship is available only to students in the state of North Carolina, it is so incredibly helpful that many students choose to study in the state for the only purpose of receiving it．It is offered to college students who come from low-income high schools or families that are interested in pursuing a long term career in education at any level．

　　New York State Scholarship Program

　　Officials in the state of New York founded this program to award students who want to give back to their community through their ability to teach．The catch for this scholarship is that the students must be pursuing a teaching career in mathematics or science at the secondary level．

　　Also, because the program was designed to improve the education system in New York, the candidates must sign a service contract agreeing to work full time within the state for at least five years after graduation．

　　Coca-Cola Scholarships

　　You may have many opportunities for grants and scholarships through The Coca Cola Foundation．There is the Coca Cola Teaching Foundation that will provide free money for students pursuing an education in the teaching field．This is the most obvious for teachers, but do not be afraid to check out their other offers．

　　Funds For Teachers

　　Not all scholarships or grants are for students entering or already in college．The Funds for Teachers scholarships are for graduates who are already working in the field, but want to improve their possibilities, skills and education in an effort to increase their ability to teach the students that cross their path more effectively．Teachers in PreK through 12 th grade are applicable no matter where they teach or what subject they specialize in．

(1)

How many students get their scholarships each year according to the Straightforward Teacher Program ?
[　　]
A．	Four
B．	Sixteen
C．	Eight
D．	Six

(2)

The reason why many students choose to study in the state of North Carolina is that ________．
[　　]
A．	They can pursue a long term career in education
B．	There are some good universities in North Carolina
C．	They can receive Prezell Robinson Scholarship
D．	They can go to college easily．

(3)

Which scholarship goes to the student who must be a science or math teacher after graduation?

A．	Coca-Cola Scholarships
B．	New York State Scholarship
C．	Prezell Robinson Scholarship
D．	Straightforward Scholarship

(4)

Who will get the Funds For Teachers scholarship?
[　　]
A．	All the students
B．	The students who are working as a teacher
C．	All the science teachers
D．	The college graduates teaching in PreK

(5)

What is the best title of the passage?
[　　]
A．	Dreams of Becoming a Teacher
B．	Teaching Scholarships and Grants
C．	Five Scholarships for Teachers
D．	Five Scholarships for Students

第三部分：閱讀理解（共20小題，每題2分，滿分40分）
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項。
The National Outline for Medium and Long Term Education Reform and Development (2010 - 20) was released over the weekend. Here are some of the highlights:
Four – percent effort
The government says spending on education will be 4 percent of GDP by 2012. globally, average spending on education is about 4.5% of GDP. China spend 3,33% in 2008. according to Hu Angang, of Tsinghua University’s Center for China Studies, even if China reaches that goal, it will only rank about 100 th out of 188 countries.
Administrative rank
Administrative rankings for school leaders are to be phased out to tackle the bureaucracy (官僚機構) problem that limits educational development, according to Cheng Fangping, of the national Institute for Educational Research. Areas like teaching programs, scientific research, and technological development will be more independent.
Vocational Education
The system will be free of charge. According to Wu Yan, of Beijing Institute of Educational Sciences, this will be key to developing China’s production capacity and will improve poor people’s lives dramatically.
Entering college
Universities could eventually have the freedom to choose some of their own high school applicants. Normally, students are accepted based on the uniform national exam scores. Also, students who agree to go to a remote area could be admitted to university under special circumstances. The most likely change could come on the college entrance English test, which might be modeled on the IELTS or TOEFL. Students will be able to take it several times and pick their best score.
56．Which of the following is true in the future according to the passage?
A．Applicants could take the IELTS or TOEFL instead of the college entrance English test.
B．Colleges will be given the right to choose all of their own applicants.
C．Vocational education will be party free to make people’s lives better.
D．Applicants could sit for the college entrance English test more than once.
57．Which of the following words is closest in meaning to “uniform” in the last paragraph?
A．formal B．official C．same D．united
58．We can learn from the passage even though our country spends 4% of GDP on education in 2012, ________.
A．there will still be 188 countries ahead of China in this aspect
B．China will certainly overtake the global average spending on education
C．there might be nearly 100 countries ahead of China in this aspect
D．China will be the 100 th country to spend over the global average on education
59．From the third paragraph, we can infer that________.
A．school leaders will have more freedom to manage the school
B．schools will have more limits from the government
C．School administrative rankings are to be strengthened to solve the bureaucracy problem
D．schools and research centers will be fully independent from the government

第二部分：閱讀理解（第一節20小題，第二節5小題；每小題2分，滿分50分）

第一節：閱讀下列短文, 從每題所給的四個選項 (A、B、C和D) 中, 選出最佳選項。

Being interested in a theme park since the time that I was a child, I have learned a thing or two over the years about packing for a day of fun. A trip to a theme park is always a adventure, but if you’re not prepared, your day of fun could easily turn into a tiny little nightmare(噩夢). It is important to pack long sleeved(帶袖的) shirts or jackets for all members of your family. I is also a good idea to pack an extra pair of socks for each member of the family, especially the children, as those wonderful water rides can be fun, but wet socks that won’t dry aren’t so much fun.

You don’t want to pack too much food, as you will probably want to experience at least some of the food offered at the theme park of your choice(that’s half of the fun), but it’s always a good idea to bring some energy increasing snacks, such as fruit,trail mix,etc. This can mean the difference between spending a lot of money on snacks or a little money on one or two good meals.

Theme parks,while fun and exciting, can wear a person out,especially a child, so it’s important to keep hydrated(含水的). I would suggest packing one bottle of water per person, and possibly a couple of cans of soda or bottles of juice as well.

It’s a good idea to have at least two cell phones or even a set of “walkie-talkies” in the event that your family gets,separated in the park. It’s a good idea to give one of these things to the children and one to the parents and make sure that each of them knows how to use it. This could be the difference between trouble and a happy ending,

1.You should get well prepared before going to a theme park__________.

A. because the trip always costs much money

B.because there are always too many people in a theme park.

C. so as not to suffer from bad dreams when going back

D.so as to cut down your trip expenses and have more fun

2.From the passage, we can know_______________.

A.the author was fond of visiting theme parks when he was a child

B.wearing wet socks in a theme park will bring children much fun

C.it is terrible to have a taste of the food offered in a theme park.

D. we’d better bring enough food, clothing and water when going to a theme park

3.What does th underlined part”walkie-talkies” in the last paragraph probably refer to?

A. A kind of transportation tool B.A kind of musical instrument

C.A kind of CDplayer D.A kind of phone

4.How many types of things does the author advise us to pack for day trips to a theme park?

A Three B.Five C.Six D. Eight
