My Ph.D.（博士学位）adviser called me into his office, saying I needn’t bring my notebook. After15 minutes of listing my positive things, he looked me in the eye and said, “You are fired from the lab.”
I had moved to Israel from my native India the year before, excited to experience a new culture and study for a Ph. D. At first things went well in my new lab. Then, 3 months before I was fired, I ran into some problems. I made a few mistakes in the lab that slowed my research, but I wasn’t aware that my adviser noticed them, and he never spoke to me about any concerns. I’m still not sure why he fired me, but I guess it was because of those mistakes. He wasn’t confident that I could complete my research in time as we’d planned.
The first few days after I was fired were especially difficult. I spent hours staring at my computer screen, unable to get anything done. One day all I could do was sit on a beach, crying. I tried to change his mind with promising results, but he wouldn’t change his decision. I could not tell the news to my family in India, as the fear of disappointing them overwhelmed（压垮）me. I soon got into a state of sadness and anxiety. Meanwhile, the date for me to leave the country was drawing near, as my visa required me to be registered（注册）as a student. I was lonely and without hope.
Around that time, I watched Dasvidaniya, a Bollywood movie that’s about a man who has 3 months to live. One line from the movie impressed me: “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade（柠檬水）”.What kind of lemonade could I make out of my present situation My wish to complete a Ph. D. was never in doubt. Finally, I told myself that one failure was not the end of the world, and that I needed to give it another try. With renewed confidence, I applied for other programs. Within 2 months, I landed an offer from a Ph.D. program in Italy. I gladly accepted it, happy that my goal of completing a Ph. D. was alive once again.
I’m thankful that I didn’t give up on my dream and that I found another professor willing to take me on.

For many years the school system in Finland has been very successful. In the PISA survey, which compares reading, math and science knowledge of 15-year-olds around the world, Finland is not only the top European country but also competes with Asian giants like Shanghai, Singapore and South Korea. But what makes the educational system in this small country so different from others in the western world
Until the 1960s Finland’s school system had been influenced largely by its neighbor, the Soviet Union. Most students left school after six years; some went on to private schools. Only the wealthy ones got a better education. In the middle of the 1960s the Finnish government saw the need to change and modernize（使现代化）their education system if they wanted to be internationally competitive. Lawmakers made a simple decision: a basic school for all the 7- to 16-year-pulsory education（义务教育）begins at 7. The government makes it possible for all children to attend preschool（幼儿园）as well.
Most of Finland’s schools get their money from the government. The people who are in charge of the education system, from teachers to officials are trained teachers, not politicians like in other countries.
Teachers work with their pupils in school as much as possible. When teachers are not with the pupils, they spend a lot of time in schools working on the curriculum（课程）and new projects. Schools in Finland are small, at least for international standards. So teachers know every pupil in their school and try everything to succeed with their pupils. That is why dropout rates are low compared to other countries. In contrast to other nations, teachers in Finland are highly respected. Finland selects its teachers very carefully: only talented students go on to a university and receive a master’s degree in education. Finland only takes the best to educate its youth.
All Finnish children, whether they come from the city or the country, whether from a rich or poor family, have the same chances in education. There are not so many differences between the wealthy and poor, as in America or other western European countries. Education experts say that there is very little difference between very good and the worst students. Two thirds of Finnish pupils move on to higher education, the highest rate in the European Union.
28. The author mentions Shanghai, Singapore and South Korea to show______.
A. Asian countries are successful in school education
B. the school system in Finland has been very successful
C. students in these places are better than those in European countries
D. the educational system in Asia is different from that in the western world
29. What did the Finland government do in the middle of the 1960s
A. They changed the school system.
B. They lengthened（延长）preschool education.
C. They encouraged students to go to private school.
D. They learned modern education from neighboring countries.
30. We can learn from the text that ______.
A. the children in Finland are educated equally
B. the children in Finland attend preschool at the age of six
C. the school system in Finland is better than that in Singapore
D. the school equipment in Finland doesn’t meet international standards
31. What can be the best title for the text
A. What Differences European Schools Have
B. What Good Schools Provide Students with
C. Why Finland’s School System Has Changed
D. Why Finland’s School System Is Successful
D
By now, most people know they should be eating more vegetables. But are there ways to get more from the vegetables you already eat A research shows that when it comes to vegetables, it’s not only how much we eat, but also how we prepare them, that decides the vitamins and other nutrients that enter our body.
Many studies show that people who eat lots of vegetables have less heart disease, and eye problems and even cancer. But raw vegetables are not always best. The researchers found that 198 Germans who eat raw food were short of lycopene, the matter found in tomatoes and other red vegetables. “There is an idea that raw foods are always going to be better,” says Steven K. Clinton, a professor at Ohio State University. “For fruits and vegetables, sometimes a little bit of cooking can be helpful.”
A number of factors decide how the vegetables do good to people’s health before they reach the table, including where and how they were grown and stored before being bought. No single cooking way is best. Some nutrients are easily lost in cooking if they are cooked in different ways.
Vitamins C and B are often lost. In January, another report said that boiling was better for carrots than frying or serving them raw. Frying was the worst way to cook.
What cooked with the vegetables can also be important When the vegetables were cooked with fat, the diners can get more nutrients. Fat can also make the taste of vegetables better, meaning that people will eat more of them. Putting on some other things that make it taste better—a little salt—can make the food taste better.
32. The writer mainly wants to tell us that ______.
A. the way people eat vegetables is important
B. people should eat more vegetables
C. eating vegetables is good for us
D. how much vegetables one should eat
33. The people who eat the raw vegetables for a long time will ______.
A. have the eyes problems
B. have heart disease
C. hate eating tomatoes
D. be in need of lycopene
34. The following decide how the vegetables do good to people EXCEPT ______.
A. the place where the vegetables are grown
B. the way how the vegetables are stored
C. the price at which the vegetable are sold
D. the way how the vegetables are prepared
35. From the last paragraph, we can know ______.
A. it’s better to cook vegetables without the fat
B. the more fat in the cooking, the fewer vegetables people will eat
C. it’s better to cook the vegetables with a little salt
D. the fat will increase the nutrition-of the vegetables

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
If you have a hard time getting along with your teachers, going to class can be a nightmare（噩梦）.Talk to your teachers. In many cases, a short discussion can clear up the entire conflict（冲突）. Ask your teachers if it is convenient for you to talk in private. 36 If you appear angry or unhappy in front of them, the conflict is unlikely to be solved.
Learn to understand their teaching methods. 37 If you are used to a very relaxing class, learning to be successful in a strict environment is difficult and vice versa（反之亦然）. In most cases, it is necessary to give yourself some time to get used to a new teaching method.
38 Teachers have many years of teaching experience in the subjects they teach. So discussing the best ways to succeed in the classroom may give you the opportunity to see the best instructors.
Learn why your teachers choose to teach. Approach the teachers at an appropriate（适当的）time before or after class, not during class. Consider saying something like, “I’ve always wondered why people become teachers. 39 Why did you decide to teach ”
Ask about your teachers’ hobbies. If you know about one of their hobbies, you can talk about it with them. And you can try to find if you have something in common. 40
A. It seems to be a difficult job.
B. Ask your teachers how you can do well in class
C. Join in activities with your teachers after school.
D. Always be polite and show respect in a conversation.
E. A way to discover the positive side of things is to keep diaries.
F. A shared interest may help you see your teachers from a different viewpoint.
G. Sometimes, you may not like some teachers because of their ways of teaching.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A North Carolina woman had her first birthday party at 105 years old. Although she is so old, she never realized her dream—she wanted to have a birthday party. She also wished to receive 105 birthday cards, the same number as her age.
Lorene Summey is an elderly person at Somerset Court, a nursing home in Cherryville, North Carolina. Two months ago, a worker in the nursing home asked Summey what she would like for her upcoming birthday.
“We have an old lady that has a birthday next month and she will be 105 years old! She has never had a big birthday party before, so I asked her several months ago what she would like to do for her birthday. She said she would love to have square dance at her birthday party,” Jodie Lankford wrote in a Facebook post. “I think this wish is not quite too difficult, and we can help her to achieve.”
“She explained to us her experiences in her childhood. She said her sister could always go out to enjoy herself but she had to stay home most of the time to take care of the younger ones. She felt unfairly treated by her parents at the time,” she said. “She wanted her hair and makeup done, and she wanted to wear the same dress she wore when she was young.”
“She is also concerned about another thing—she doesn’t think she could have 105 birthday cards sent by mail to her for her birthday! I’ve told her that we will have more. I have made her believe that her wish is sure to come true,” Lankford added.
Last Friday night, her great birthday party began on the square of the nursing home. The time came for the old lady to realize her wish.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Summey looked especially beautiful that day.______________________________________________________

Dear Jack,
Learning that you take a keen interest in Chinese Spring Festival, I am writing to introduce it to you.
The Chinese Spring Festival, which falls on January 1st of Chinese lunar calendar, is regarded as the most significant festival among Chinese. A number of things are done before the festival. One of these is cleaning the house. Another important custom is to decorate their doors with red couplets, which symbolize a prosperous new year. The greatest moment is the big family dinner on the eve, when the whole family enjoy a big dinner together, while watching the Spring Festival Gala. The next day, people will visit relatives and friends to give their best wishes. Setting off firecrackers and giving children lucky money are also the traditions.
Hope you can travel to China to experience the festival in person.
Yours,
Li Hua

Summey looked especially beautiful that day. She wore a hat with jewelry and a dress with bright designs of flowers. She arrived at the party surrounded by a group of guests. Music started and the first program was the square dance. They celebrated the old lady’s birthday with a beautiful dance. Then, her friends and relatives gave her flowers, which kept her smiling all the time. At the end of the party, all the people present sang “Happy Birthday to You”.
Back to her room, the caregivers showed Summey the birthday cards. The old lady’s concems about the number of her birthday cards turned out to be unnecessary. Instead of 105 birthday cards, she received more than 1,200, which came from people all over the country. There’s at least one card from every U.S. state. Other cards arrived from as faraway as England. From the bottom of her heart, Summery thanked each of the workers who took the time to make her birthday wish come true!
