Tyler was in my class for a semester. He had 28 management issues and tended to lose his temper for no reason. He had been suspended(停课) many times in previous years. When he entered my class, I prepared for the 29 .
Tyler sat in the back row. Unfortunately, every time I called on him to answer the question in class, he 30 respond with an answer without thinking. If he got an answer wrong, he would become angry. About a month into the year, I was trying to connect with Tyler, but still couldn’t get him 31 in class or at the least motivate him to sit 32 and attentively. Tyler was just loud and rude.
One day, Tyler was talking while I was teaching. In the middle of the lesson, I said in the same tone of voice, “Tyler, why don’t you 33 our discussion instead of having one of your own?” With that, he got up from his chair, pushed it over, and yelled something rudely. 34 , he received a week’s out-of-school suspension.
On the day of Tyler’s 35 , I stood at the door waiting for him. As soon as I saw him, I asked Tyler to talk to me for a moment. He seemed unhappy to do it but 36 . I told him that I wanted to start over with him. I also told him that if he felt like he was going to lose control in class, he had my 37 to step outside the door for a moment to 38 himself.
Giving Tyler the power to leave the classroom showed him that he had the ability to 39 how he would behave. From that point on, Tyler was a 40 student. He listened, he participated. He was a smart student, something I could finally witness 41 him. He even 42 a fight between two other students one day. He never abused his breaktime privilege. At the end of the year, Tyler wrote me a thank-you note about how good the year had been for him.

Kites... on the Ocean?
Above beautiful Kite Beach in Cabarete, on the northeast coast of the Dominican Republic, huge colorful kites fly in the gentle wind. Kites aren’t an unusual sight on any beach, but these aren’t ordinary kites. Instead of being flown by people standing in the sand, these kites, which are inflatable (可充气的) are actually pulling men and women through the water on what look like short surfboards. Some even leap high above the waves, twisting and jumping, as their kites pull them up into the air. Welcome to the sport of kiteboarding, one of the world’s hottest new watersports!
精品资料
The idea of using kites as a kind of transportation actually goes back to China in the 13th century. Then in 1903, Samuel Cody of England used “man-lifting kites” to pull a small boat across the English Channel. But today’s sport of kiteboarding is relatively young. Two brothers from France, Dominique and Bruno Legaignoux, began experimenting with inflatable kites in the 1980s. In 1984 they eventually patented a kite with inflatable tubes and a harness(背带) system of strings that allowed a rider to control the kite from the water and relaunch it easily if it crashed. Modern kiteboarding was born. The first kiteboarding competitions were taking place in Hawaii in 1998.
Kiteboarding works with the help of wind power. The rider wears a special harness around his or her waist, where the kite is attached by a set of four lines that are fastened to a control bar that the rider holds onto with both hands. These lines control the kite as well as making it possible to change how much wind power the kite is using. The kite pulls the rider along on a board that is similar to a short surfboard. The rider’s feet fit into rubber cups to help them stay on the board without slipping.
Kites come in different sizes and riders use the kite that is best suited to the wind conditions where they are riding. Smaller kites are easier to control, but large kites have more pulling power. Kites also come in several designs: C-kites, or leading edge inflatable kites, are easy to relaunch if they fall into the water. Foil kites have cells that are inflated by the wind at any time. However, some types of foil kites cannot be relaunched from the water.
Kiteboarding has become increasingly popular in the last 10 years, and many places all over the world offer kiteboarding lessons for beginners. While it takes some skill to learn to manage a kite and stay upright on the board, with practice you’ll find yourself skimming along the waves, pulled by your colorful kite! 48. What can we learn about kiteboarding?
A. It is a popular sport. B. It depends on wave power.
精品资料
C. It dates back to centuries ago. D. It is intended for professional surfers.
49. What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 2?
A. The types of kiteboarding. B. The invention of kiteboarding. C. The experiments of kiteboarding. D. The competitions of kiteboarding. 50. What makes the rider fastened to the surfboard?
A. A set of four lines. B. A special harness. C. A pair of rubber cups. D. A control bar.

Media reports suggest that shark attacks are on the rise. However, such attacks on humans are extremely rare and few deadly. While the number of recorded shark attacks has risen in recent years, the average rate has not. The huge population explosion makes more of us being exposed to the risk. We are also developing far more effective methods of recording such attacks, which may have not been reported in the past-and, maybe most important, we are gaining a greater understanding of why run-ins with sharks, though infrequent, occur in the first place.
Some researchers considered shark attacks on humans as misdirected feeding attempts. That is, a shark takes a bite or two out of humans because they look like food. It is thought that especially in shallower waters near shore, where smaller species of sharks may go to feed on schools of smaller fish, many shark attacks occur out of confusion. The shark, born to catch anything looking slightly like a fish may bite a human.
However, according to the most recent report published by Pacific Shark Research Center, the image of surfers, arms reaching out of their boards, being seen as seals (海豹) from below by sharks has largely been discarded, because sharks have extremely powerful vision and are unlikely to mistake a surfer for a seal. Certainly, most attacks have not shown the hunting techniques employed when sharks are in the mood for seals.
Considering the force with which these creatures are capable of attacking, the report provides fresh evidence from survivors of attacks suggesting that the sharks are simply curious. Their mouths function as finely tuned sensory organs, leading sharks to “mouth” unfamiliar objects as a means of examining them and determining their possible food value. So, at worst, these attacks likely result from sharks’
精品资料
actively assessing whether it’s worth eating a human, not actually trying to eat one.
The researchers contributing to the report also connect shark attacks on humans to the sense of habitat protection. The system is simple: the largest sharks get the best hunting spots. New comers are not welcome, and so forced to leave, violently if necessary. Some shark attacks may be a result of the shark’s natural action to defend its food source against all comers.
Whatever the real cause of shark attacks, we are a far greater threat to them than they are to us. We have decreased their populations, with some 100 million taken each year both on purpose and by accident.
51. Why are media reports on shark attacks increasing? A. More people love taking risks. B. Sharks have a larger population. C. The average attack rate is increasing. D. There are more ways to record attacks.
52. What does the underlined word “discarded” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Referred. B. Recommended. C. Rejected. D. Reviewed. 53. According to Pacific Shark Research Center, a shark attacks humans because it is __________.
A. hungry B. excited C. scared D. curious 54. Which of the following shows the development of ideas in this passage?

Mnemonics
How many English words do you need to know in order to be considered fluent? Experts
精品资料
generally agree that you need to know at least several thousand. We can’t simply insert a computer chip into our memories containing all the vocabulary. However, with training, the potential of the human memory can be unlocked by using mnemonics. Mnemonics refer to methods used to help remember information. 55 Different ones work better for different people, depending on their learning styles.
The loci method
56 Before using this method, visualize a path that you know well, such as the way to school. Next, looking at your list of words, you’ll need to create a vivid and memorable image for each word. For example, for the word “accelerate(加速)”, you might choose the image of a race car. An image for the word “enormous” might be a dinosaur. Then imagine yourself walking down your path. 57 For example, you see a race car at a store, a dinosaur in the park, etc. Finally, put away the list and move along the path in your mind again, recalling as many words as you can.
The association method
To commit a word to memory, it can help to associate it with an image that is memorable in some way—colorful, funny, embarrassing, beautiful, etc. You might associate the word “tremendous(巨大的)” with tremendously large trees and men. 58 Saying the word, you hear “tree” and “men”. This pairing of meaning, sound, and images can help you memorize new words more quickly.
The grouping method
Try to memorize the following words: radio, pencil, index card, notebook, book, marker, magazine, newspaper, paper. 59 But try dividing the list up into small groups, such as things you write with, things you write on, things you read. Are you able to recollect more words now? All you need is to be creative about categorizing the words.
These three methods are just a few of the many types of mnemonic. Why not try a variety of methods and find the ones that work best for you?
A. It follows one’s learning style. B. There are a wide variety of methods. C. These words are meaningless on their own.
D. This method is useful for remembering lists of words. E. This image is also connected to the word in pronunciation. F. Put the images you associated with the words at common landmarks. G. This works well for people who are good at linking concepts to words.

阅读短文,根据短文回答问题,并将答案写在相应位置上。(每题不超过15个单词。) Two French filmmakers were working in Kinshasa, the capital of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (刚果民主共和国). One day, they found a group of musicians performing on the street. But these were not ordinary street musicians. Most of the band members were disabled, and they made music with homemade instruments.
The band is called Staff Benda Bilili. Its members are Ricky, one of the founders of the band; Coco, the band’s composer, who helped Ricky start the band; Junana, the group’s choreographer; the Coude, a bass player and singer. A nondisabled teenager, Roger, plays the satonge, a one-string guitar he designed and built himself out of a tin can, a fish basket, and an electrical wire.
The band’s name, Benda Bilili, means “look beyond appearances” in the local language. Staff Benda Bilili’s audience was at first made up of poor street people, just like the band members themselves. The band has its own mission(使命). As Ricky once, said, “Our songs encourage kids to go to school, encourage people to work hard. The message of our music is that if you want to do something with your life, you need to be strong and positive, no matter how tough life is.”
The band members themselves are examples of their message. They don’t see themselves as disabled. Instead, they see themselves as rock musicians. Their energetic performances show this. For example, when the group is playing, Junana sometimes jumps out of his wheelchair and dances around the stage on his hands.
The filmmakers, Florent de la Tullaye and Renaud Barret decided to make a documentary about the band. The film follows the band as they play their music in Kinshasa, the capital of a country that had many wars in its recent past. These wars affected millions of people in Kinshasa and elsewhere in Congo. The documentary aims to show what the band did and how their music helped people survive in this very difficult environment. The documentary also wants to encourage the wide spread of the band’s spirits. Staff Benda Bilili members themselves also experience problems in their lives, but they choose to face the problems bravely. They write the problems in their songs and offer solutions to the problems. For example, their song “Polio” is about how to live with disease.
The band is now well known, and today their music gives hope to people around the world.

Dear Mike, I’m glad to hear that you are helping your school organize Chinese Culture Week activities. I believe it will be a great chance for your schoolmates to learn more
about China.
As for activities, there’re so many choices due to the diversity of Chinese culture. Chinese literature has a long history and the literacy works at different historic periods have different characteristics. I wonder if you’d like to consider a lecture on Chinese literature, which will definitely help students learn more about China.
Besides literature, Chinese art also has its unique position in the world. A great deal of Chinese art, such as New Year graphics, wood carving, paper cutting will appeal to those who love eastern art. So I think it would be a good idea to hold an exhibition of Chinese art.
Engaging activities is always popular. So I suggest you organize a painting activity and let students experience painting in the traditional Chinese style. Think about it. Try using a brush to draw a Chinese painting. Isn’t it interesting!
I hope my suggestions will be helpful for you. Wish your activities every success! Li Hua

Hello, I’m Harold Smith. As the editor of the Voice, I’d like to introduce you to our school paper. We need volunteers to assist us in keeping the students informed through our newspaper. Experience isn’t absolutely necessary, but writing and typing skills are in great demand. We need people to read, type and proofread our articles every day. You don’t have to major in journalism. We also have several engineers and a law student working for us. Since we are making the Voice five days a week, we need good students who know how to manage their time efficiently. There is some money for salaries, but don’t expect to get rich! It’s just for fun. Anyone who’s interested in joining the staff should speak to me immediately after this meeting.
