　　[2016·山西太原质检]I had worried myself sick over Simon's mother coming to see me. I was a new teacher, and I gave an honest account of the students' work. In Simon's case, the grades were awfully low. He couldn't read his own handwriting. But he was a bright student. He discussed adult subjects with nearly adult comprehension. His work in no way reflected his abilities.

　　So when Simon's mother entered the room, my palms (手掌心) were sweating. I was completely unprepared for her kisses on both my cheeks. “I came to thank you，” she said, surprising me beyond speech. Because of me, Simon had become a different person. He talked of how he loved me, he had begun to make friends, and for the first time in his twelve years, he had recently spent an afternoon at a friend's house. She wanted to tell me how grateful she was for the self－respect I had developed in her son. She kissed me again and left.

　　I sat, stunned, for about half an hour, wondering what had just happened. How did I make such a life－changing difference to that boy without even knowing it？ What I finally came to remember was one day, several months before, when some students were giving reports in the front of the class, Jeanne spoke quietly, and to encourage her to raise her voice, I had said, “Speak up. Simon's the expert on this. He is the only one you have to convince， and he can't hear you in the back of the room.” That was it. From that day on， Simon had sat up straighter, paid more attention, smiled more, and became happy. And it was all because he happened to be the last kid in the last row. The boy who most needed praise was the one who took the last seat that day.

　　It taught me the most valuable lesson over the years of my teaching career, and I'm thankful that it came early and positively. A small kindness can indeed make a difference.

　　老师对孩子的尊敬与关心会改变孩子的行为与成绩。

　　4．We can infer that when Simon's mother entered the room, the writer felt ________.

　　A．satisfied B．nervous

　　C．happy D．surprised

　　答案：B　推理判断题。从文中第二段“my palms were sweating”可知我当时很紧张。

　　5．Why did Simon's mother come to visit her son's teacher?

　　A．Because she worried about her son's poor work.

　　B．Because she wanted to show her gratitude to the teacher.

　　C．Because Simon asked her to do so.

　　D．Because she wanted to know her son's performance in the school.

　　答案：B　事实细节题。从文中第二段“I came to thank you”“She wanted to tell me how grateful she was for...in her son”可知选B，对老师感激。

　　6．What the teacher said in Paragraph 3 is intended to________.

　　A．encourage Jeanne to speak louder

　　B．encourage Simon to work hard

　　C．ask Jeanne to convince Simon

　　D．tell the students that Simon was expert on that

　　答案：A　事实细节题。从文中“Jeanne spoke quietly, and to encourage her to raise her voice”可知目的在于鼓励学生大声演讲。

　　7．The purpose of the passage is to ________.

　　A．tell the story of Simon

　　B．tell teachers how to be kind to students

　　C．advise the readers to be kind to others

　　仿写：He is such_a_clever_boy that everyone loves him.

　　How to Build Your Own Website

　　Sixty years ago, people asked about your astrological (星座) sign.__1__These days, having a web address is almost as important as a street address. Your website is an electronic meeting place for your family, friends and millions of people around the world. Best of all, you may not have to spend a cent.

　　◆__5__If you aim too high at the beginning, you may never get the site off the ground. You can always add something new to your site.

　　◆Less is better. Most people don't like to read a lot of texts online. Break it into small pieces.

　　2．G　本段主要讲home page的作用。

　　3．E　关于web pages的内容。

　　4．F　都是建立网站的相关信息与细节。

　　Since childhood, I have been dreaming to be a scientist to predict earthquakes. I can never forget miserable scenes whenever the earthquake strikes. The question “Can we do nothing but die？”often recalls to my mind. I choose not to believe that!

　　Three months later, I will be a college student. I am planning to take a major to gain professional knowledge. After graduation. I will choose a world－famous university, where I can exchange knowledge and skills with top experts. “Theory without experience is blind.” I will catch any chance to gain first－hand experience.

　　I am determined to devote my lifetime to the great cause and firmly believe that, through joint efforts, predicting earthquakes will be a piece of cake in front of us mankind.
