C
Christmas Eve means a warm get-together with friends, a candlelight dinner, or perhaps a celebration at a pub(酒馆) for students. But, for Cai Yingjie, the night has a different meaning: helping beggars(乞丐)and the homeless(people without homes).
Cai, who is a student in journalism at Tsinghua, could be found at Beijing’s Wudaokou Light Railway Station that special evening. When she saw an old beggar, she took the cold, rough hands of the woman with her warm, clean hands, and gave the woman some warm bread and helped her put on a pair of new gloves.
3
The woman was surprised for a few seconds, then burst into tears, saying “for the first time I feel respected”. Cai said, “A beggar’s life is very hard. That’s why I want to help them.”Cai was one of 14 Tsinghua students spending Christmas Eve among the poor. They walked in the cold wind along the streets from 4 to 7 pm on Friday, visiting 15 beggars in Beijing’s Haidian District. They brought bread and gloves with them, and stopped to greet beggars and offer them some of the warm food. Each beggar greeted them with a look of surprise.
“I know the activity can’t help much, but it’s meant to show our respect and care for beggars and the homeless who have been neglected for so long,” said Sun, head of the group. “And Christmas is a good time for that.” 18.What does Christmas Eve mean to the 14 Tsinghua students? A.Taking 15 beggars to Tsinghua. B.Getting together with friends.
C.Selling bread and gloves to the beggars. D.Showing care to the beggars and the homeless.
19. What does the beggar mean by saying “for the first time I feel respected”? A.The beggar has been waiting for Cai for long. B.The beggar has been respecting Cai for a long time. C.The beggar hasn’t been shown care for so long.
D.This is the first time the beggar has seen Tsinghua students. 20. What did each beggar feel when they received greetings? A.Sad. B.Surprised C.Frightened. D.Proud. 21.The word “neglected” in the last passage means _______. A.given no enough care B.found
C.taken care of D.protected
D
We live in a digital world now, and a student's technology needs have changed. For the early years, say when you are in primary school, you can get by(过下去) with no technology at all. Even if you have a computer, it's a good idea to get children familiar with libraries. At this age, trips to the library are like family outings(短途旅游,远足).
4
As you get closer to middle school, a computer with Internet access becomes more of a necessity. Teachers will often give assignments(作业) that require a student to use the Internet for research. After a computer, technology choices for students become more difficult to make - especially when it comes to cellphones. Kids will beg their parents for a cell-phone, especially in middle school. For many parents, it's a safety issue: They want to know that their kids can reach them quickly if necessary. For teachers, cell phones can be used to record lessons when students are absent. But many teachers dislike cell-phones. Some kids send messages or have talks in the class. Sending messages also raises the problem of cheating on exams. More and more schools are now forbidding the use of cellphones. Many kids see iPods as necessary things to have. iPods are great for music, but do they do anything good for your children's education? Maybe they do. That's the opinion of Doug Johnson, an educator for 30 years. Johnson says that educators should accept all new forms of technology in the classroom, including iPods. \"Some do more with their cell- phones than we can do with our laptops,\" he jokes.\"I don't think we should be afraid. The truth is that it's easier to change the way we teach than to change the technology habits of an entire generation.\"
22. According to author, primary school children should _____. A. use the computer and the Internet regularly B. go to libraries to read more books
C. ask their parents to buy them cell-phones D. buy iPods to listen to music
23. Why do parents agree to buy their children cell-phones? A. They want their children to be cool.
B. They want to know their children can reach them quickly if necessary C. They think cell-phones be helpful to their study. D. They want their children to keep up to date.
24. The following are all reasons why many teachers dislike cell-phones EXCEPT ______. A. cell-phones can be used to cheat on exams B. schoolchildren will send messages during class C. cell-phones can be used to record lessons
5
D. schoolchildren might talk on them during class 25. We can infer from what Doug Johnson said that _______. A. it's better for teachers to change their teaching methods B. cell-phones are not useful to students C. teachers should let students use cell-phones
D. schoolchildren should follow the trends(潮流) of fashion

第二节 书面表达 10分 Dear Jin Jing,
Your problem is a common one among middle school students. Maybe the following advice can help you. First of all, believe in yourself. Your greatest problem is that you lack self-confidence. The first thing you must do is to smile at your classmates. One smile speaks louder about your wish to make friends than any words.Your smile will show that you are friendly to them. Next, try talking with a student who is as shy as yourself or who shares the same interest as you. You can discuss your studies with a classmate, and you can also talk about your hobbies as well.If anyone is in trouble in life or study, you should be ready to help him or her.
Once you have confidence, you can make as many friends as possible.
Yours,
Li Hua
