But what if one or both of your parents smoke? You can’t order your parents to stop smoking, but you can encourage them to quit. Here are some good reasons: smoking is bad for their health; smoking causes second-hand smoke which can damage e very family’s health; smoking will cause other troubles in the family. ‎ ‎ You can show articles about smoking to your parents and encourage them to find out more information about smoking. But what if your parents get angry with you because of the topic of smoking? People don’t like to be reminded that they are doing something bad, so it’s possible your parents will be angry. Remember to be kind, respect and understand your parents. Also you should know that it is difficult to give up smoking. Instead of shouting at them, you should tell them that you love them and want them to enjoy a happy life. One day your parents will realize you are right. ‎ And if they do agree to stop smoking, you should be their supporter. There’s something you can do to help them when they want to smoke. Maybe you can go for a walk, do a puzzle, or listen to music with them. When they make progress, like a month without smoking, you can hold a party to celebrate it. Please say, “Go ahead, my parents!”‎ ‎21. The underlined word “quit” means______ .‎ ‎ A. give up B. give away C. put up D. put off ‎22.

What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear. ‎ We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.‎ Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did.” or “You are such a smart child.”‎ ‎28. According to the context we can guess that a genius is ____ while an idiot is _____.‎ A. a normal person; a funny person B. a highly intelligent person; a foolish or weak-minded person C. a strong person; a weak person D. a famous person; an ordinary person　‎ ‎29. A person ________ is more likely to become a genius.‎ A. whose parents are clever B. born with a good brain and putting it into active use　‎ C. often helped by his parents and teachers D. often thinking about difficult problems ‎30. It is better for parents ________.‎ A. to leave their children alone with nothing to do B. to be hard on their children C. to praise and encourage their children more often D. to give their children as much help as possible　‎ ‎31. Which of the following is NOT true according to the article?‎ A. Intelligence is obviously the result of where and how you live.‎ B. The less you use your mind the duller you may become.‎ C. Parents play an important part in their children’s growth.‎ D. What makes a person bright or stupid is still under discussion.‎ ‎ D Isle Royale is surrounded by the deep blue waters of Lake Superior, the largest freshwater lake on Earth. The only way to get there is by boat or seaplane. The National Park Service operates shuttle boats that take visitors to Isle Royale. The boats leave from two Michigan ports. A boat trip to Isle Royale takes three to five hours .Waters are often extremely rough.‎ ‎ Modern copper mining began in the late 1800s. resulting in large areas of the island being burned. This led to settlement development. Soon, Isle Royale became popular for summer homes. It became a national park on April 3, 1940. In 1980, officials named it an International Biosphere Reserve(生物圈保护区) because of its unique ecosystem.‎ ‎ Isle Royale offers hiking, camping, boating, and even scuba diving. The National Park Service protects 11 sunken(沉没的) boats for divers to explore. They are reminders of Lake Superior’s commercial shipping history. The sunken wooden ship called The America is one of the most popular dive sites. The America carried passengers, mail, and supplies to many towns along the shores of Lake Superior. It first launched in 1898, and was used until 1928, when it was damaged. It sank to the bottom of the lake soon after.‎ ‎ Visitors to Isle Royale share the trails with a well-studied population of wolves. Scientists believe wolves walked there during a freeze of the lake sometime in the 1940s. Researchers closely record their population numbers. Much of the research takes place during the winter, when the trees are bare. The researchers fly over the island to observe the animals from above.‎ ‎ Animal research is the only winter activity going on at Isle Royale. The national park is closed each year in late October because of the terrible weather conditions and ‎ reopens in spring time the next year.‎ ‎ But for the other months of the year. Isle Royale offers green forests, and clear blue waters. Its excellent scenery and unusual location keep visitors returning year after year.‎ ‎32.What is mainly talked about in the first paragraph?‎ A. The island's basic information. B. The island's location C. The island's natural environment. D. The access to the island. ‎ ‎33.How long is the history of the national park?‎ A. More than two centuries. B. Less than forty years. ‎ C. Over seventy years. D. Over one hundred years.‎ ‎34.The sunken boats and ship are considered as ________.‎ A. a site where people seek pleasure and wealth B. a history book that shows the commercial shipping in the area C. an underwater museum where people can see many relics D. a lesson that reminds people to remember the disasters ‎35.The researchers fly over the island in winter because ________.‎ A. there are more animals then B. the island can’t be reached with the lake frozen C. they don't intend to disturb the animals D. they can have a clear look at the animals there III 七选五 (共10分，每小题2分)‎ Forgiveness ‎ To forgive is a virtue, but no one has ever said it is easy. When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate. However, forgiveness is possible, and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. People who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness, according to a recent research.‎ ‎ _____36______Try the following steps:‎ ‎ Calm yourself. _____37______ You can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love.‎ ‎ Don’t wait for an apology.
