12、A primary school in UK has banned Valentines Day cards because of concerns that young pupils spend too much time talking about boyfriends and girlfriends.Ashcombe Primary School in WestonSuperMare,Somerset,has told parents that cards declaring love can be“confusing” for children under the age of 11,
13、who are still emotionally and socially developing. In this months newsletter(通讯),Peter Turner,the head teacher,warned that any cards found in school would be confiscated(没收)He wrote:“We do not wish to see any Valentines Day cards in school this year. Some children and parents encourage a lot of talk
14、 about boyfriends and girlfriends. We believe that such ideas should wait until children are mature enough emotionally and socially to understand the commitment involved in having or being a boyfriend or girlfriend.”Mr.Turner said any families wanting to support the Valentines Day idea should send c
15、ards in the post or deliver them to home addresses by hand.His views were endorsed by Ruth Rice,46,who has twins Harriet and Olivia at the school. She said,“Children at that age shouldnt really be thinking about Valentines Day,they should be concentrating on their schoolwork.”They are at an age when
16、 they are impressionable(易受影响的)and most parents including myself are with Mr.Turner. “She added that the cards cause” too much competition. If someone gets a card and another doesnt,then someone will be disappointed.However,Rajeev Takyar,40,who has two children Jai,11,and Aryan,five,at the school,sa
17、id he was “outraged”He said,“There are schools that have banned conkers(栗子游戏)and snowballs,and now Valentines Cards.”I think banning the cards stops children from having social skills. How are they going to learn about relationships otherwise?Its ridiculous. Alec Suttenwood,father of three children,
18、said of the ban:“Its totally ridiculous. Young children just send the cards to each other as friends and to their parents. Its just a bit of harmless fun. There is no difference between this and Mothers or Fathers Day.”26Which of the following is the best title?ABan on Valentines Day cards at school

21、nefit childrenCthe cards cause too much competition among childrenDchildren are too young to talk about love30The newsletter by Peter Turner probably appeared on_.AFebruary 22 BFebruary 6CMarch 18 DAugust 1BA black hole is a place in space where gravity pulls so much that even light cannot get out.
22、The gravity is so strong because matter has been squeezed into a tiny space. This can happen when a star is dying.Because no light can get out, people cant see black holes. Space telescopes with special tools can help find black holes. The special tools can see how stars that are very close to black
23、 holes act differently from other ones.Black holes can be big or small. Scientists think the smallest black holes are as small as just one atom. These black holes are very tiny but have the mass of a large mountain. Mass is the amount of matter, or “staff”, in an object.Another kind of black hole is
24、 called “stellar”(星球黑洞). Its mass can be up to 20 times more than the mass of the sun. There may be many stellar mass black holes in Earths galaxy. Earths galaxy is called the Milky Way.The largest black holes are called “supermassive”(超大质量黑洞). These black holes have masses that are more than one mi
25、llion suns together. Scientists have found proof that every large galaxy contains a supermassive black hole at its center. The supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy has a mass equal to about four million suns and would fit inside a very large ball that could hold a few millio
26、n Earths.Scientists think the smallest black holes formed when the universe began. Stellar black holes are made when the center of a very big star falls in upon itself, or falls apart. When this happens, it exploded part of the star into space. Scientists think supermassive black holes were made at
27、the same time as the galaxy they are in.A black hole can not be seen because strong gravity pulls all of the light into the middle of the black hole. But scientists can see how the strong gravity affects the stars and gas around the black hole. Scientists can study stars to find out if they are flyi
28、ng around, or orbiting a black hole.When a black hole and a star are close together, high-energy light is made. This kind of light cannot be seen with human eyes. Scientists use satellites and telescopes in space to see the high-energy light.31. The gravity of a black hole may become so strong that
29、light cannot get out when _. A. the star is going to die B. special tools are used on it C. other stars come close to it D. it is seen from the space telescopes32. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true? A. A black hole can be very tiny but extremely heavy. B. The gravity of a
30、black hole holds all light in its center. C. Scientists observe high-energy light through their own eyes. D. Some small black holes came into being as early as the universe.33. Which can be inferred from the passage? A. Every galaxy must have a black hole. B. A galaxy is the center of the universe.
31、C. A galaxy consists of a large group of stars and planets. D. Earths galaxy is called the Milky Way.34. What does the last sentence in Paragraph 5 suggest? A.

32、he supermassive black hole had existed before the Milky Way was formed. D. There is a reason why the large black holes are called “supermassive”.35.

33、know about black holesCThe computer keyboard helped kill shorthanda system of rapid handwriting, and now its threatening to finish off handwriting as a whole. When handwritten essays were introduced on the SAT exams for the class of 2012, just 15% of the most1.5 million students wrote their answers
34、in cursive(草写字母). The rest? Block letters.And those college hopefuls are just the first edge of a wave of US students who no longer get much handwriting instructions in the primary grades, frequently 10 minutes a day or less. As a result, more and more students struggle to read and write cursive.At
35、Keene Mill Elementary School in Springfield, all their poems and stories are typed. Children in Fairfax County schools are taught keyboarding beginning in kindergarten. Older students who never mastered handwriting say it doesnt affect their grades.There are those who say the culture is at a crossin
36、g, turning from the written word to the typed one. If handwriting becomes a lost form of communication, does it matter?It was at University Virginia that researchers recently discovered a previously unknown poem by Robert, written in his unique script. Handwritten documents are more valuable to rese
37、archers, historians say, because their authenticity(真实性) can be confirmed. Students also find them more fascinating.The loss of handwriting also may be a cognitive(认知的) opportunity missed. Several academic studies have found that good handwriting skills at a young age can help children express their
38、 thoughts bettera lifelong benefit.It doesnt take much to teach better handwriting skills. At some schools in Prince Georges County, elementary school students use a program called Handwriting Without Tears for 15 minutes a day. They learn the correct formation of manuscript letters through second g
39、rade, and cursive letters in third grade.There are always going to be some kids who struggle with handwriting because of their particular neurological(神经系统的) writing, learning issues or poor motor skills. Educators often point to this factor in support of keyboarding.36. What is the author concerned

43、ical activity. It may be walking, cycling, swimming, or in winter, skating or skiing. It may be a game of some formsfootball, basketball, hockey, golf or tennis. It may be mountaineering.Those who have a passion for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment. Why a
44、re men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship, and to take risks in high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to which men give their leisure.Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no man-made rules
45、, as others, as there are for such games as golf and football. There are, of course, rules of different kinds which would be dangerous to ignore, but it is this freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to use their own method
46、s.If we compare mountaineering with other more familiar sports, we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a “team game”. We should be mistaken in this. There are, it is true, no “matches” between “teams” of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives
