His subjects include English, Hindi, science, mathematics, history, and geography. There are no seats and no tables. There is only one concrete wall, which is part of the bridge itself.‎ ‎“I was walking by and saw the poor children playing in the dust and mud when this bridge was under construction,” Sharma told reporters. “I spoke with the parents and asked, ‘Why don’t you send them to school?’ They said, ‘ We want them to be educated but we can’t afford their education and the school is too far.’ ‎ With no government funding, Sharma’s “school” relies entirely on public support and donations(捐赠). People donate books, uniforms, shoes, and food on a regular basis. On Saturdays the students play cricket, football, badminton, and other games with donated sports equipment.‎ ‎“I love this school,” says a 15-year-old student, Pappu. “I come here for studies and to draw.” He walks two kilometers every day to reach the school. For Sharma, his day does not end after his lessons. The grocery store owner often goes straight to his shop where he works until 10 p.m.‎ 1. Which of the following words best describe Rajesh Sharma?‎ A. Caring and busy. B. Rich and smart.‎ C. Famous and educated. D. Hardworking and brave.‎ 2. Why did Rajesh Sharma drop out of college?‎ A. He had to run the grocery store. B. His college was too far from home.‎ C. He couldn’t afford to pay for college D. He was teaching at the bridge school.‎ 3. What can we infer from the passage?‎ A. The local government pays for the school equipment.‎ B. Children from slum areas enjoy studying with Sharma.‎ C. Sharma was too busy teaching to look after his store.‎ A. The parents of these children do not value education.‎ B Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I’m not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s just the reality of how life is.‎ However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in addition to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing. To become great at certain things, it’ll require even more time, time that most people won’t put in.‎ This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don’t enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will possibly make you quit well before you ever become good at it.‎ When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost. It’s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and there’s a huge chance that you’re wrong anyway.‎ Whatever you do, if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. If you’re not willing to put in the time and work, don’t expect to receive any rewards. Consistent (持续的), hard work won’t guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.‎ 2. Paragraph 1 mainly talks about _____ .‎ A. the standards of success B. the meaning of success C. the reasons for success D. the importance of success 3. What can we infer from Paragraph 4?‎ A. Successful people like to show their great skills.‎ B. People need to achieve success at the cost of life.‎ C. People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.‎ D. It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.‎ 4. What is the main theme of the passage?‎ A. Having a goal is vital to success.‎ B. Being good is different from being great.‎ C. Luck, talent and family help to achieve success.‎ D. One cannot succeed without time and practice.‎ ‎ C ‎ If you could have one superpower, what would it be?‎ ‎ Dreaming about whether you would want to read minds, see through walls, or have ‎ superhuman strength may sound silly, but it actually gets to the heart of what really matters in your life.‎ ‎ Every day in our work, we are inspired by the people we meet doing extraordinary things to improve the world.‎ They have a different kind of superpower that all of us possess: the power to make a difference in the lives of others.‎ We’re not saying that everyone needs to contribute their lives to the poor. Your lives are busy enough doing homework, playing sports, making friends, seeking after your dreams. But we do think that you can live a more powerful life when you devote some of your time and energy to something much larger than yourself. Find an issue you are interested in and learn more. Volunteer or, if you can, contribute a little money to a cause. Whatever you do, don’t be a bystander. Get involved. You may have the opportunity to make your biggest difference when you’re older. But why not start now?‎ Our own experience working together on health, development, and energy the last twenty years has been one of the most rewarding parts of our lives. It has changed who we are and continues to fuel our optimism about how much the lives of the poorest people will improve in the years ahead.‎ ‎7. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A. Your life style. B. Your life value.‎ C. Your trouble in life. D. Your life experience.‎ ‎8. Why does the author say they are inspired every day?‎ A. They possess different kinds of superpowers.‎ B. They have got the power to change the world.‎ C. Some people around them are making the world better.‎ D. There are many powerful people in their life and work.‎ ‎9. What does the author stress in Paragraph 5?‎ A. Learning more and contributing more to a cause.‎ B. Rising above self and acting to help others.‎ C. Working hard to get a bigger opportunity.‎ D. Trying your best to help the poor.‎ ‎10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?‎ A. The author believes the lives of the poorest will get better.‎ B. Much more progress will be made in the near future.‎ C. The work on health is the most valuable experience.‎ D. People’s efforts have been materially rewarded. ‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ ‎    根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项,并把答案涂到答题卡上。‎ Getting older No one really knows how and why people change as they get older.__11__ .Aging is a complex and varied process that varies in how it affects different people and organs.In fact，even in one person，different organ systems “age” at different rates.‎ At a certain point in our lives our body systems will begin to weaken.__12__ .
