Parker Stewart, 15 years old, studies at the Sayre School in Kentucky, US. After doing some independent environmental studies, Parker wanted to make a difference in his community to help the environment.

He started to work really hard last year to bring solar (太阳的) energy to his school’s science labs. Thirty solar panels (电板) are going to be used in late November.

It started when Parker began researching solar energy. He found a solar power app. When he put in an exact address in it, it would tell him how much sunlight that area receives each day. He found that his school building receives a perfect amount (数量) of sunlight, which provided help for finding a good place to install (安装) solar panels for science labs.

At his science teacher’s suggestion, Parker performed an energy examination of one of the school’s science labs to see how much energy it uses. He then started doing more research, including communicating with a local company called Synergy Home to install solar panels.

Parker then went to the headmaster of his school to ask for money after explaining the upsides of solar power. The school used the money to buy one panel, but since then, the project has grown to a total of 30 panels. They’re expected to produce enough energy to run all of the four science labs.

Debbie Wheeler, his science teacher, said the success of the project was because of Parker’s hard work. He did all of the research necessary to make clear of whether solar energy would be a suitable solution for the school’s labs, as well as found out the number of the cost and good results for the project.

Others just talk about improving the environment “but Parker had the persistence to make it happen,” she added.

1.Parker tried really hard to make use of __________ for his science labs.

A.wind energy B.solar energy C.heat energy

2.What do we know about the solar power app in Paragraph 3?

A.Parker Steward created the solar power app.

B.The app helps to receive more solar energy.

C.The app helps find a good place to install solar panels.

3.__________ provided Parker with the money he needed.

A.His teacher B.His school C.Synergy Home

4.According to Teacher Wheeler, Parker succeeded because __________.

A.he got a lot of help from his teachers

B.he did a lot of research before taking action

C.he worked on a similar project for a local company

5.What can be the best title?

A.Young Boy, Great Energy B.Parker and Science Labs C.Low Cost, Good Results

A lot of toys have come and gone over the past 60 years, but Barbie (芭比娃娃) - short for Barbara - has always had a home on toy store shelves. According to The New York Times, however, “she” is more than just a toy. Barbie is watching the society’s changing attitudes (态度) toward women.

When Barbie was first introduced by Ruth Handler (1916-2002), one of the starters of US toy company Mattel, she had good plans. “Barbie has always shown the fact that a woman has choices,” according to a book, Dream Doll: The Ruth Handler Story.

But the earliest Barbie wasn’t offered too many choices at all. Barbie appeared either in a swimsuit or a housewife’s dress.

A good point is that the following years showed some progress, as Mattel introduced Barbie dolls with different skin colors and clothing for different jobs and hobbies. A new turning point came on International Women’s Day of 2018, when the company started a line of “Inspiring Women”. The dolls came out as famous women from history, including great US pilot Amelia Earhart and UK boxer (拳击手) Nicola Adams, which encouraged all other women.

But even though Mattel seemed to have good purposes, these new dolls weren’t safe from bad words. Unlike the real Nicola Adams, for example, the doll has no muscles (肌肉). Instead, it’s designed with a slim body, just like every other Barbie. According to the reporter Grace Kang, this exactly reflects the world’s present attitude toward women. “We’re allowed to be fit, but we’re not supposed to have too many muscles. We’re allowed to be clever, but smart women are meant to look like models with glasses on. We’re allowed to be creative and artistic, but quickly become ‘crazy’ if we start to look too messy,” she wrote.

No, Barbie isn’t perfect. But she’s slowly changing people’s views. Maybe that’s one thing real women can do.

1.According to Paragraph 1, we know Barbie has always been __________.

A.expensive B.popular C.changeable

2.Which of the following sentences could be added to describe the process in Barbie’s role changing?

A.Barbie took care of babies at borne.

B.Barbie became a great pilot in history.

C.Barbie with dark skin worked as a nurse.

3.The underlined word “Inspiring” means __________ in the passage.

A.鼓舞人心的 B.启发灵感的 C.多愁善感的

4.What might be the world’s present attitude toward women according to Grace Kang?

A.Women are supposed to be fit and strong.

B.Women should be like a crazy artist

C.Women are expected to be perfect.

5.What is the purpose of the writer?

A.To make people change views toward women.

B.To help women to be more creative and artistic.

C.To encourage women to be perfect like Barbie.

第三节　 语篇补全

It’s not easy growing up. Growing up can be a real "pain” for some of us. We are always doing things that someone else makes us do. And we aren’t allowed to do all the things we like. Sometimes we feel sad, sometimes we are afraid, and sometimes we just don’t understand why we can’t stay young forever. But we should take a look back on all the hard periods in life with a positive(积极的) attitude and learn from them. 1..

Throughout our lives we are going to face many challenges and pains, but we should never let these difficulties keep us from following our dreams. 2.

As a young girl, my parents forced me to do so many things that I didn’t like. They made me learn to play the violin and then the piano. 3. But looking back now, I am so glad that my parents encouraged me to take music lessons. Music has made my life so colorful in so many ways. I now realize that my parents and teachers wanted me to have a better life than they did themselves.

We are all going to experience growing pains, but they are just part of our life. 4. Life would be really boring and meaningless. The future is ours! A little hard work never hurts anyone! If we realize that these pains just get in the way of our road to success, we will realize that our growing pains are actually growing gains!

A. I took great interests in music and won many prizes.

B. Think about how we would feel if we had no challenges and lived a life like that.

C. We should realize that all of our growing pains actually turn into growing gains.

D. At that time I hated music and I also hated them.

E. We must solve every problem one small step at a time.

My name is Jackson. I remember almost everything I read. But I don’t like to speak in class. When Mr. Knoll asked us to do an oral (口头的) book report, the idea of having my classmates looking at me filled me with nervousness.

But since Mr. Knoll gave us a month to get the report ready, I thought I had plenty of time.

Finally, I chose Fire-Hunter by Jim Kjelgaard. I read the first few pages and then I threw it away. Then the book got buried in the clutter (杂物) in my room.

When I realized the date of the book report was only a week away, I was in a fear. I raced home and found the book. Trembling (颤抖), I turned to the book and discovered there were 218 pages! I read like crazy.

The last day came. When Mr. Knoll called on me to give my report. I still had eighty pages to go. The class looked sorry for me when I pulled myself forward. They could see my fear. “My book is Fire-Hunter, by Jim Kjelgaard,” I began slowly. Then I started to tell the story and the class seemed interested. To my surprise, I discovered I was enjoying myself. However, l had no idea how the book ended. I really didn’t know what caused me to act in that way. I made up the rest of the story later.

The class loved it, and flapped their hands as I finished.

At break time, Mr. Knoll called me over. “You know, Jackson, I don’t really remember the book ending that way.” I lowered my head.

“You told a pretty good story,” he continued. “The project was an oral book report. You did a great job on the oral part.”

“Uh, thanks.” I said.

“When you actually finish Fire-Hunter, please come to me and give me the book report.”

“Yes, I will,” I said. I knew I would make a REAL book report.

1.How did Jackson feel when he knew the task of making an oral book report?
