三. 阅读理解 （每小题2分，共20分）
A
Drriinnggg! That’s the sound children across the country do not want to hear—the alarm bell (闹铃). This means children across the UK have to wake up bright and early to go to school.
But students at one school in north-east England can lie in for one more hour before they go to school. Monkseaton High School says it’s OK for students to come into school an hour later than other schools.
The headmaster, Dr Paul Kelley, says that it helps students to be more active in class. He feels that young people work better later in the day and a late start may be better for their school life than an early one.
Dr Kelley told the BBC that teenagers don’t work very well in the morning and their need to sleep is biological (生物学的).
This new approach (做法) to teaching shows good results. The school has already seen a drop in the number of students playing truant (逃学) by 27%. More importantly, Dr Kelley also said that exam results have improved by 20-30% over the past year.
Lessons at Monkseaton High School begin at 10 a.m. and finish at 3.40 p.m. However, the school opens from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
( )26. One of the results of starting school late is that 　　　.
A. students don’t do very well in exams B. students become more polite
C. students feel tired in the afternoon D. fewer students are absent (缺席) from school
( )27. We may learn from the passage that lessons at other schools in the UK may begin at 　　　
A. 7 a.m. B. 8 a.m. C. 9 a.m. D. 10 a.m.
( )28. The underlined word “active” means “　　　”.
A. 乐观 B. 活跃 C. 紧张 D. 消极
( )29. What does Dr Kelley want to tell us?
A. The early bird catches the worm (虫子). B. A late start is better than an early one.
C. Better late than never. D. Hard work is the mother of good results.
( )30. The article may be 　　　.
A. a story in a newspaper B. an advertisement in a magazine
C. a news report on the radio D. a play on TV
B

The mother of the little girl felt worried that lightning (闪电) might frighten (惊吓) her child. Following the bright light of lightning, the mother quickly got into her car and drove to her child’s school.

Another lightning came and then another followed. With each lightning, the little girl stopped, looked up and smiled.
Inside the car, the mother asked her daughter, “Why did you look up and smile when the lightning came?” The little girl answered with a smile, “Mum, you know, God was looking at me.

六. 任务型阅读 (每小题2分，共10分)
阅读下面的短文，根据其内容填空，完成后面的表格。
The Chinese are very generous when it comes to educating (教育) their children. Some parents send their children to the best schools or even other countries, for example, England, the US or Australia although (尽管) it is expensive. Many also want their children to go to after-school classes.
However, most parents don’t see that the best education is usually very cheap. Parents should know their children’s different skills (技能). Children will usually be good in some areas but poor in others. Most parents fail to know that children don’t have enough confidence (自信).
Parents only care about their children’s grades. It’s a problem. Why don’t they try teaching their children practical (实际) skills like cooking, cleaning and doing other housework?
Cooking will be good for children’s future life. Cooking is pleasant but difficult. A good cook always tries to make his cooking better, so he will learn to work hard and finish his job well step by step. The result, a well-cooked dinner, will give a child a lot of fun and confidence.
Something like a broken (破的) radio or TV set can also help. If a child spends hours looking at it and trying to repair it, your child might become an engineer (工程师) when he grows up. It’s better to do these activities than teach a child to read a book. These activities can teach them to think, and to use their minds.

One possible version:
Class 2 has some rules for students. I think some rules are good and some are not so good.
I think it’s important for students not to make noise in class. Students should listen to teachers carefully in class. If one student makes noise, the other students will find it hard to hear what the teacher is saying. But I don’t think it is necessary to stop students eating food in the classroom. Students get hungry easily. Eating something between classes can give them enough energy. How can they learn well when they are waiting for lunch?
