26、“Bry, your mom says no dogs.” The fact that Patch was deaf did not help. “Its not your fault youre deaf,” Bryan said. “Dont worry, because Ive got a plan!” Later, Bryan got ready to leave.

34、ide, and in many ways it would be difficult to distinguish this classroom from any other.These children, like Lovemore, live at the Mbare bus station, a crowded, dirty and dangerous place for anyone, especially at night.

35、her stopped paying school fees. When Lovemores father remarried, Lovemore was forced onto the street, no longer welcome at home.After meeting a worker from the Presbyterian Childrens Club (PCC), Lovemore felt encouraged to take advantage of the opportunity to get an education. Since joining the prog

36、ram, he is always at the top of his class. He spends his mornings at the PCC, where he receives his only meals for the day. At night, he sleeps on the ground at the bus station. The few clothes he owns are hidden in secret places around town so that no one will steal them.At the end of each day, Lov

50、uter space is a little like going camping. You have to carry with you all the food and equipment you need for your trip, so your food cant be too heavy or hard to prepare. Plus, there are no refrigerators to keep food cold and fresh. Food with all the water dried out is lightweight and doesnt spoil.

51、 So, many space foods are dried on Earth and stored in special packets. Some taste good right out of the packet. On earth, gravity is the force that keeps your feet on the ground and your sandwich on your plate. But theres no gravity in space. To keep food from floating away, astronauts on the Space

52、 Shuttle attach the packets to a special tray. The tray can be fixed to a wall or to the astronauts lap. To prepare their food, astronauts use liquid forms of salt and pepper. The liquid sticks to the food better. Regular salt and pepper would float away, maybe up an astronauts nose.Liquids float ri

53、ght out of cups and glasses, though. So astronauts drink everything from a small bag with a straw(吸管饮料) that can be closed. Astronauts say that most space foods taste pretty good. Some, such as apples and pudding, are the same as the foods you eat on Earth.Astronauts eat tortillas(玉米粉圆饼) instead of

54、bread because they make fewer crumbs(碎屑). Floating crumbs could get stuck in equipment or an astronauts eye.Your body used food in space the same way it does on Earth. Your body must deal with waste in space too. During takeoff the landing, astronauts cant leave their seats to go to the bathroom. Th

55、ey wear diapers(尿布) under their spacesuits instead.The Space Shuttle has a bathroom the size of a small closet. The toilet has bars that keep astronauts from floating away. A strong flow of air is used instead of water to flush(冲洗) waste down the toilet. Back on Earth its flushed away-or sometimes s

56、tudied by scientists.68. Why do astronauts use liquid forms of salt and pepper to prepare food? A. Liquid doesnt spoil. B. Liquid is convenient to use in space. C. Liquid is lightweight. D. Astronauts are in great need of water.69. What do astronauts think of space foods? A. Most of them taste pleas

57、ant. B. They are mostly fruits. C. Most of them are rather cold. D. They contain too little meat.70. We can infer from the passage that astronauts _. A. drink from cups and glasses B. always wear diapers in space C. can move freely during landing D. must pay attention to the crumbs in space71. What

58、is the passage mainly about? A. Astronauts hard life in space. B. How astronauts go to the bathroom. C. The various foods astronauts eat in space. D. How astronauts eat and deal with waste in space.ECheektowage Central Middle School can be a lot of fun. It has game nights and student dances, after-s

59、chool activities, and sports teams. However, students at the school must earn the right to join in the fun. If they dont do their homework, participate in class, and behave at all times, theyre banned(禁止) from participating in after-school activities.Students and parents say the threat of being excl

60、uded(排除在外) appears to be working. Kenny T. of Reno, Nev., says it taught him that actions have consequences: “I learned that I need to be balanced in both my work and athletics to be rewarded for working hard.” Parent Sondra LaMacchia told The New York Times that her 14-year-old daughter is learning

61、 responsibility at Cheektowaga Central. The teen used to perform poorly in her studies, but then she was banned from a school dance. The message got through loud and clear. “Its nobodys fault but hers,” LaMacchia said.Although exclusion may help teach responsibility, some psychologists say it can al

62、so be threatening, especially for students who often cause, or may cause, trouble in school. They might become more aggressive and antisocial, which is exactly what schools like Cheektowaga Central want to prevent.Should schools exclude students from activities to get them to behave? I believe teens

63、 need school activities and that inclusion can be the answer. For some troubled students, activities can be their motivation to stay in school. “Activities such as sports may be the only thing keeping certain students in school,” says Duace Wood, a teacher at Mohonasen High School in Rotterdam, N.Y.

64、 Getting involved in after-class activities keeps troublesome students in class. Even if they dont do as well as their classmates, they are still learning. The more time they spend at school, the less time they have to even think about starting trouble. Teams also provide support and role models, an

65、d they help build the confidence that students need to succeed. If students who dont behave are banned from activities, they might give up on school altogether.72. Paragraph 2 is developed by _. A. analyzing causes B. examining differences C. giving examples D. following the time order73. Parent Son

66、dra LaMacchia supports the policy of exclusion because _. A. it provides role models B. her daughter is aggressive C. it helps teach responsibility D. her daughter hates taking exercise74. In Paragraph 3 and 4, the author mainly talks about _. A. students who are good at sports B. students who often

67、 cause trouble C. teens who do well in their studies D. teens who always behave themselves75. What is the authors attitude towards the schools policy of exclusion?A. Supportive B. Sympathetic C. Satisfied D. Negative 第三部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节 短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）With the development of science and te
