Jumanji is a story for children about a very strange game--a game that becomes far too real and frightening for the players. It was a story by Chris Van Allsburg, which was later filmed in1996, starring the famous American actor Robin Williams.
The story begins in 1869 in New Hampshire, America. Two young brothers bury a box under some trees. A hundred years later, in 1969, a boy, Alan Parfish, finds the box and takes it home. He's unhappy that his father may want to send him to a boarding school (寄宿学校). Alan's friend Sarah arrives, and they open the box. Inside is a board game. At the start of the game, some words appear: "Do you want to leave the world behind and go back to the past? Then this is the game for you. "Suddenly Alan finds that he is disappearing into the game.
The story has a deep meaning. Through his adventures Alan learns something important—if you confront (面对) your fears, your problems will go away. Alan turns to face Van Pelt, the hunter who is trying to kill him. In doing so, he completes the game and returns to reality. Then he finds that his father is not going to send him to boarding school after all.
In Jumanji, time is "elastic". The film director Stephen Spielberg' s "Back to the Future" films play with time in the same way. Top scientists even tell us now that time travel is theoretically (理论上) possible !

Parents might say "honesty is the best policy," but when it comes to talking with :their own children, mom and dad lie surprisingly often, finds a new study carded out by researchers in the University of Toronto, Canada.
Almost every parent in the study admits having come up with some tales to influence a child' s actions and feelings. For example, a parent is annoyed by a child' s crying and says, "The police will come to get you if you don' t stop crying now. " In another example, an uncle has just died and the child is told that he has become a star to watch over the child.
Whether parents lie to benefit themselves or to protect the child, researchers suggest such tall tales could give children mixed messages at a time when they are trying to figure out how to deal with the social world.
Lies could also harm the parent-child relationship. It could even keep children from learning certain rules. "If I am always lying to the child in order to get the child to do X,, Y, or Z, then they have never learned why they should do X, Y, or Z. " Heyman, one of the researchers, said. Heyman also said, "It is common for parents to try out various ways, including lying, to guide a child, but most parents never think about how it will influence their child. I think parents should figure it out in advance what their general beliefs are, so when it comes to the situation you're working with your beliefs rather than what comes into your head at the moment. "
60. What did the researchers find out in their recent study?
[ A ] Most parents are strict with their children.[ B ] Many parents like to tell police Stories.
[ C ] Few parents believe in honesty.[ D ] Parents often lie to children.

[ A] They may fall behind in school.[ B ] They may lie to their parents too.
[ C ] They may get confused about the society.
[ D ] They may feel they are being overprotected.
63. What' s Heyman' s suggestion for parents?
[ A ] Teach their children about rules.
[ B ] Guide their children on sound beliefs.
[ C ] Influence their children in various ways.
[ D ] Figure out children' s problems in advance.

When Tom Szaky sees a juice container thrown away, he doesn' t see rubbish: he sees a pencil case. Sweet wrappers (包装纸) ? A beautiful kite. But these are not the imaginings of a dreamer. For the 28-year-old CEO of Trenton, New Jersey-based Terra Cycle, they're a business model. The fast-talking Szaky is leading the new industry of up cycling. Instead of recycling ( shred-ding or breaking down materials and enabling them to be reproduced as other products), TerraCycle takes packaging headed for landfills (垃圾填埋 ) and reuses it more or less whole. TerraCycle' s 85 employees make nearly 200 products, sold at shops such as Petco, Kmart, WholeFoods Market, and Target.
Szaky's $ 7.4 million company, now also moving ahead in Mexico, Canada. the United Kingdom and Brazil is a far cry from the business he founded with classmate Jon Beyer. In 2002 as a freshman at Princeton University. The two entered a business competition with a plan to sell an organic plant fertilizer(有机肥料) made from worm waste. They lost the competition but started the business anyway.
With their goal--to make products entirely out of rubbish--suddenly clear, Szaky knew the time was fight to drop out of Princeton.
TerraCycle' s first product used dining-hall waste to feed the worms and thrown-away bottles to package the fertilizer. The result: a cheap, green breakthrough. Word spread, and in 2004,Home Depot began carrying the fertilizer in its Canadian stores.
To Szaky, waste does not exist in nature. TerraCycle is a "second chance" employer of, say, a piece of furniture, an ice-cream container. As Szaky points out: "The biggest problem with most green, fair-trade, and organic products is that they tend to cost more. At TerraCycle, everything is made from rubbish, and rubbish is free. People should be able to protect the planet without having to pay a cost for that right. "
64. Who is Tom Szaky?
[ A ] A student at Princeton University.[ B ] The manager of a food company.
[ C ] An employee of Home Depot.
[D] CEO of TerraCycle.
65. What do we know about the new industry of upcycling?
[ A] It puts waste materials directly into new use.
[ B ] It promotes completely natural foods.
[ C] It buries waste materials in landfills.[ D ] It makes organic plant fertilizer.
66. How did Szaky get the idea of upcycling?
[ A] From his visits to foreign companies.
[ B ] From his studies at Princeton University.
[ C ] Through shopping at big stores in America.
[ D ] Through the experience of a business competition.
67. What is the advantage of upcycling according to Szaky?
[ A ] The cost is kept low.
[ B ] The product is free.
[ C ] The product has a longer fife.[ D ] More materials are available.

A pure virus(病毒) could be kept in a bottle, just like hundreds of other chemicals. Yet, when a virus is placed on a living thing, it comes to life. As long as it is on a living material, it grows.
A difficult question still remains--what is a virus? Is it living or chemical? Men of science had always thought life and not-life to be as different as black and white. With the discovery of the virus, they became aware of a grey area that was neither black nor white.
Until the 1930' s, it was accepted that there was also a great difference in size between the largest chemical molecules (分子) and the smallest living things. As new and much finer filters(过滤器) were invented, men were able to measure viruses. The first virus to be measured was found to be about 100 millimicrons(毫微米) across.
The largest known chemical molecule measures only 22 millimicrons. The smallest living thing measures almost seven times that size or 150 millimicrons. When viruses were measured, they were found to range in size from 16 millimicrons to300 millimicrons. Most were found to be larger than the largest chemical molecules and smaller than the smallest living things.
The answer to the puzzle--what is a virus? --must be that it is both living and not living. In a living cell, it is a live thing. In a bottle, it is nothing more than a chemical. We now realize that the virus is actually a link between life and not-life.
68. What is this text mainly about?
[A] How viruses should be understood.
[B] The effect viruses have on living things.
[C] How filters are used in studying viruses.
[D] The researches scientists do with viruses.
60. What makes a virus come to life?
[ A] A large chemical molecule.[B] A dead chemical.
[C] An active virus.[ D ] A living cell.
70. What do the underlined words "a grey area" in paragraph 2 refer to?
[A ] The discovery of unknown chemicals.
[B] Viruses in a state of living and not living.
[C] A difficult question unsolved about viruses.
[ D ] The colour of viruses between black and white.
71. Which of the following is the smallest in size?
[A ] Viruses. [B] New filters.
[C] Living cells. [D] Chemical molecules.

【知识拓展】当while，when，as引导时间状语从句时的区别： ①while引导的状语从句中动词必须是持续性。谓语动词多为l进行时，或状态动词的一般时。while的这些用法可用when代l替，等于“at the time that”，“during the time that”。 ②when除可指一段时间外，还可用来指某特定时间，等于“at the time”，也就是说when引出的时间状语从句中的谓语动词l可以是终止性的，也可以延续性的。因此主句和从句的谓语可I以是一般时、进行时或完成时。 ③as常可与when，while通用，但强调“一边…一边…”。④when引导的状语从句中的主语与主句主语一致，主、谓是“主语+系动词”结构时，这时主语和系动词可以省略。⑤when有时代替if’引导条件句，意为“如果”、“假如”。
30.【D】 【精析】句意：很多伟大的发明都出现在十九世纪的后五十年。本题考查的是固定的表达。…的一半的用法是“the half of”，笫二是“the second”，second修饰half，应该放在half前。此题的顺序应为the second half of。故D正确。

(2)复合介词，如：on to，along with，because of，in front of，instead of等。

③和名词的搭配，如：answer to，key to，reason for，visit to等。
32.【D】 【精析】句意：我希望能有个专业的导游带着我游览所有的旅途景点。本题考查的是非谓语动词的用法。hope to do sth.表示“希望做某事”。根据句意，take与主语I之间是被动关系，故D正确。
33.【C】 【精析】句意：自从搬到了同一个城市，拉尔夫和西莉亚互相了解了很多。本题考查的是动词时态。根据已给的动词moved可知整体的时态是过去，再根据连词since，判断空格处应用完成时，因此选用过去完成时结构，故C正确。
34.【B】 【精析】句意：在去教师办公室的路上，我走得很慢，心里琢磨她为什么要跟我谈话。本题考查的是宾语从句连接词的用法以及对句意的理解。which表示“哪个”;why表示“为什么”;where表示“在哪里”;who表示“谁”。根据句意，故B正确。

一个商人欠了别人很多钱且无力偿还。他坐在公园的长椅上，思考挽救公司的办法。
突然，一住老人出现在他面前。听完他的问题之后，老人开了一张支票，说：“把钱拿着。一年后的今天在这见我，那个时候再把钱还给我。”说完，老人转身离开，和他来的时候一样快。
这个商人看见手里有一张有着世界首富洛克菲勒签字的五十万美金的支票。这笔钱足够他挽救生意了。但是，他决定把支票放进保险箱里，因为他觉得，知道自己拥有五十万让他有力量自己解决生意问题。
带着这样的信心和努力工作，他再次赚了钱。一年后，他带着那张!支票回到了那个公园，看见了那位老人。正当他要感谢老人时，一个士跑过来，大声说道：“太好了，终于抓到他了!他总是从疗养院跑出来，：到处跟人说他是洛克菲勒。”说完，护士就扶着老人离开了。

“尤曼吉”(又称“勇敢者的游戏”)是一个供儿童阅读的故事，它描述的是一个神奇的游戏——真实性很强，甚至对玩家来说有点吓人的游戏。故事是由克里斯-范·奥尔斯伯格撰写，1996年时还被改编成电影，并由著名美国影星罗宾·威廉姆斯出演。
故事开始于1869年美国的新罕布什尔州，一对小兄弟在树下埋了一个盒子。一百年以后，也就是1969年，一个叫艾伦·帕里什的小男孩找到这个盒子并把它带回了家。当时，他正在因为爸爸要把他送到寄宿学校而不开心。艾伦的朋友萨拉来了，之后，他们就一起打开了这个盒子，发现里面有一个棋盘游戏。当游戏开始的时候，出现了几行字：“你想离开这个世界回到过去吗?这就是专属于你的游戏。”突然，艾伦发现自己消失在游戏里。
这个故事有更深层的意义。通过这次冒险旅程，艾伦学到了一些重的道理——如果你可以面对自己的恐惧，那么问题就会解决。因此，艾伦选择勇敢面对一个试图杀害他的猎手范·佩尔特。最后，艾伦完成了戏，回到了现实中。后来，他发现爸爸根本就没有打算把他送去寄宿校。
在“尤曼吉”这个故事中，时间是有弹性的。导演史蒂芬·斯皮尔伯的电影“回到未来”中以同样的方式处理了时间。顶尖的科学家甚至诉我们时间旅行在理论上是行得通的!
56.A【精析】细节题。题干意为“谁在这个电影中出演?”。第一段最后一句“...starting the famous American actor Robin Williams.”，故A为正确答案。
57.D【精析】细节题。题干意为“从故事我们得知，艾伦是一个___的男孩?”。文章第二段最后一句于人提到“...he is disappearing into the game”可知，游戏开始后，艾伦消失在游戏里并回到了过去。故D正确。
A【精析】细节题。题干意为“艾伦从游戏中意识到不管何时遇到困难，他应该——。”。从文章的第三段中第二句“…if you confront your fears，your problems will go away.”可以得知，解决问题的最好办法就是勇敢面对它。故A为正确答案。
59.D【精析】推理题。题干意为“作者说time is' elastic，是什么意思?”。根据上下文的意思，在游戏里可以穿越到过去，最后一句也说到科学家说时间旅行其实理论上是可行的。故D为正确答案。

父母可能会说“诚实是最好的品质”，但是一旦跟自己孩子交谈时，父母就会惊人地经常撒谎。这是加拿大多伦多大学的研究者们最近一项研究的结果。
在此项研究中，几乎每个父母都承认自己为了影响孩子的言行举止，曾编过某些故事。比如，当孩子总是哭，家长感觉很烦的时候，就会说，“你再哭，警察马上就来捕逮你了。”再比如，一个孩子的叔叔去世了，父母会告诉孩子，叔叔变成了一颗星星在天上守护着他。
研究者表示，不管父母撒谎的初衷是为了有利于自己还是保护孩子，这样含着谎言的故事会在孩子试图了解这个世界的时候，给他们传递出一些混杂的信息。
不仅如此，谎言也可能伤害亲子关系，甚至不利于孩子学习一些准则。一位名为赫曼的研究者说：“如果我总是用欺骗的方法让孩子去做一些事情，这样的话，他们就永远不知道他们为什么要这么做。”
赫曼也提到，对于父母来说，为了引导孩子，可以采取很多种方法，包括说谎。但是大多数父母从未想过谎言会对孩子产生什么样的影响。我觉得父母应该提前想清楚自己普遍信奉的原则，因此，一旦遇到类似的情况，你就会用你信奉的原则而不是一时冲动去处理问题。
60.D 【精析】细节题。题干意为“在最近的一项研究中有哪些发现?”。， 从文章第一段中“…but when it comes to talking with their own children.morn and dad lie surprisingly often...”可知：但是一旦跟自己孩子交谈时，父母就会惊人地经常撒谎。故D为正确答案。
61.A 【精析】语义题。题干意为“第三段中画线的tall tale是什么意思?”。从文章第三段“...tall tales could give children mixed messages...”，可知tall tale指的就是含有混杂着谎言的故事，故A为正确答案。
62.C 【精析】推理题。题干意为“根据研究调查，父母的谎言会对孩子造成什么样的影响?”。文章第三段“...give children mixed messages at a time when they are trying to figure out how to deal with the social world.”，由此可推理出，父母的谎言会影响孩子们对于社会的理解，故C为正确答案。
63.B 【精析】推理题。题干意为“赫曼对于父母的建议是什么?”。从文章最后一段来看，赫曼认为父母应该提前想清楚自己普遍信奉的原则，因此，一旦遇到类似的情况，你就会用你信奉的原则而不是一时冲动去处理问题。故B为正确答案。

在汤姆·萨奇的眼中，一个扔掉的果汁盒不是垃圾，而是一个铅笔盒，漂亮的包装纸，美丽的风筝。但是这些并非是梦想家的想象。对于位于新泽西的特林顿公司28岁的CEO来说，这些都是商业模型。
萨奇语速很快，他引领了升级改造新产业潮流。特林顿公司并不从事回收产业，即将物质粉碎或者打破之后重新制成别的产品，它是把即将被当做垃圾填埋的包装进行重新利用，可能是整个或者是部分的利用。公司85个雇员制作近两百种产品，在美国宠物用品连锁超市、凯马特、全食超市、塔吉特等地出售。
萨奇拥有的这个价值740万美金的公司现在正在开拓墨西哥、加拿大、英国和巴西的市场。比起萨奇在2002年刚上普林斯顿大学时和同班同学乔恩·拜尔一起建立的那个小生意相较，确实今非昔比。那时，两人参加了一个商业比赛，计划是卖从虫子排泄物中制作出的有机肥料，尽管比赛失利，但是此项生意却由此开始了。
他们的目标——从垃圾中制作产品——变得清晰了，于是，萨奇觉得是时候从普林斯顿大学辍学了。
特林顿公司的第一件产品是使用餐厅泔水去喂养虫子，用废弃的瓶子包装肥料，这是成本低廉并且环保的突破。通过人们的口口相传，在2004年，美国家得宝公司开始把特林顿公司的肥料引入了其加拿大的店铺。
对于萨奇来说，废品并不是自然存在的物品。特林顿公司是给了某件家具或是某个冰淇淋盒子第二次利用的机会。正如萨奇所言，“最大的问题是，大多数绿色有机产品成本都比较高。在特林顿公司，每个产品都是由垃圾制成的，而这些都是免费的。人们应该不需要为保护我们的星球付出任何成本。”
64.D 【精析】细节题。题干意为“汤姆·萨奇是谁?”。由文章第一段最后一句“...the 28-year-old CEO of Trenton...”，可知，萨奇是该公司的首席执行官。故D为正确答案。
65.A 【精析】推理题。题干意为“我们可以了解关于升级改造新产业的什么?”。依据文章第二段第二句所陈述的“Instead of recycling, TerraCycle takes packaging headed for landfills and reuses it…”，可知，特林顿公司并不从事回收产业，它是把即将被当作垃圾填埋的包装进行重新利用，可能是整个或者是部分的利用。故A为正确答案。
66.D 【精析】推理题。题干意为“萨奇是如何有了从事升级改造产业的灵感?”。根据文章第三段的内容“...but started the business anyway.”可知，萨奇在大学的时候因为参加一个比赛尝试过这种活动，之后就开始从事这方面的商业活动。故D为正确答案。
67.A 【精析】推理题。题干意为“萨奇认为升级改造产业的优势是什么?”。根据文章最后一段第三、四句“...the biggest problem.., is that they tend to cost more...and rubbish is free.”可知，产业最大的优势就是原料是免费的，因此成本相对低廉。故A为正确答案。

单纯的一个病毒可以像其他很多种化学物质一样被保存在瓶子里。但是，一旦病毒附着在一个生命体上，它也就有了生命。只要被附着的物体活着，它就能生长。
但是，仍然有一个难题——病毒是什么?它是生命体或是化学物质?人类科学总是把有生命和无生命的物体视作是截然相反的两者。随着病毒的发现，他们开始意识到在之前的两者之间还有一个中间的领域，它并不属于任何一方。
直到二十世纪30年代，人们才普遍认识到，最大的化学分子和最小的生物体之间也是有巨大的大小差异的。当发明了新型的更加精细的过滤器之后，人们开始能够测量病毒的大小。第一个被测量出的病毒直径大概是100毫微米。
已知的最大的化学分子直径仅仅是22毫微米，而最小的生物体的尺寸是这个数字的7倍，即将近150毫微米。病毒的测量数据显示，它们的尺寸范围在16到300毫微米之间变化。大多数病毒尺寸介于最大的化学分子和最小的生物体之间。
回到那个问题——病毒是什么?——病毒是有生命的，又是无生命的。在一个有生命的细胞中，病毒就是有生命的;在一个空瓶子里，病毒就跟一个化学物质没什么两样。现在，我们意识到，病毒其实就是生命和非生命的纽带。
68.A【精析】主旨题。题干意为“文章的大意是什么?”。从文章第二段提出的问题“病毒是什么?”，一直到最后对于这个问题的叵这篇文章主要是说病毒的概念，或者是我们应该如何去解读j的概念。故A为正确答案。
69.D【精析】细节题。题干意为“是什么让一个病毒有了生命?”从文章第一段第二句“Yet，when a virus is placed on a living thing it comes to life.”可知病毒附着一个生命体上，病毒就是有生命一个有生命的细胞是一个生命体。故D为正确答案。
70.B【精析】推理题。题干意为“第二段中划线词组a grey area指什么?”。由文章第二段可知，科学家们总是把有生命和无生7物体视作是截然相反的两者。随着病毒的发现，他们开始意”在之前的两者之间还有一个中间的领域，它并不属于任何一方，所以这里的a grey area(灰色领域)指的是病毒处于一种生命非生命体的中间地带。故B为正确答案。
71.D【精析】推理题。题干意为“以下几个选项中，哪个是尺寸：的?”。根据文章倒数第二段最后一句“…larger than the largest chemical molecules and smaller than the smallest living things.知，通过三者的比较，应该是chemical molecules最小。故D确答案。

Dear Bob,
You wrote to me saying that you were dreaming of a special weekend away from the noisy city and tedious life.
1 am wondering that a day's tour to the countryside might be a good i'dea. My recommendation is that I accompany you to Lanshan Village for the weekend and we will be staying at Uncle Zhang's house. I've been there once and was amazed by the beautiful scenery there.
My plan goes like this. We can go for vegetable collection in the field in the morning, which we could breathe fresh air and get a great meal for lunch. Fishing is also fun, which we can go in the afternoon. There is a river near where we live and it only takes us ten minutes on foot. If we are lucky, we could enjoy nice fish for supper. After supper, we can enjoy singing and dancing performed by countrymen.
If you have anything particular in mind, please let me know. Best wishes.
Yours sincerely,
Li Ming
