MOST recently, my world has been shaken by the death of a teacher at my school.He was Dr.Allan Woolley and he was only 52.Suddenly he took his own life, which remains a mystery.

That morning, everyone sensed that something wasn't right.During our lessons, an announcement was made that an assembly was scheduled for morning break, which was only done in emergencies.

Once morning break came, the entire school gathered in the main hall.As our headmaster marched out to announce the “momentous news”， it felt like the air around us trembled.Many students broke down in tears, and the reaction afterward was intensely powerful and unifying.

The headmaster said that students were allowed to miss lessons and have a free period to collect themselves if they found the news too distressing.Many students went outside and shared memories of Dr.Woolley to control themselves.

Dr.Woolley taught me chemistry two years ago, but up until his death he still taught many of my close friends.Many of my friends were so shocked that they still couldn't believe the person that they had owed some homework to was now dead.

It was heart­warming to spend time with teachers that morning and get to know more about them.Despite the time of sadness, I feel that every cloud has a silver lining.Although Dr.Woolley's death is something nobody wanted to see, we must move on．

Notes：

①assembly n．集会　②schedule vt.安排　③momentous adj.重大的　④unifying adj.统一的　⑤distressing adj.悲伤的

25．What did the students feel at the news of their teacher's death?

A．Unhappy. B．Shocked.

C．Surprised. D．Silent.

26．What does the underlined word “collect” in Paragraph 4 mean?

A．Bring something together.

B．Calm down.

C．Increase in amount.

D．Get and keep.

27．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A．The real cause of Dr.Woolley's death is known to us.

B．Many students didn't prepare themselves for the bad news so that they felt very sad.

C．It takes the whole school some time to recover from the depressing news.

D．Dr.Woolley's death allows students to understand teachers better.

28．It can be inferred from the underlined sentences in the last paragraph that________．

A．Dr.Woolley's death made students sad

B．there is still some comfort and hope in trouble

C．Dr.Woolley's death disappointed students greatly

D．we should forget the fact to study better

C

Some parents think that once their children are at school, they can relax themselves.But this is not the case at all.As research shows, parents have an even greater influence on their children's academic results than the school does.Most of a child's ability is formed from home.

The mass of parents don't realise how they can help their children at home.Things are as simple as baking a cake.An example of helping young children with their maths is simply planning a birthday party.They have to decide how many people to invite, how many invitations they will need, how many prizes, balloons need to be bought, and so on.Children often find that real life experiences help them to do their maths more easily.

Another way that parents can help their children with their maths is to give them pocket money.This not only teaches them about the value of money, but they may need to use basic maths to work out how long they will have to save to buy the special toy that they want.

Reading to children at an early age can give them a head start when they start school.But parents should not stop reading to children when they do start going to school.They still like to be read to, and it can help to increase their sight vocabulary as well.

Providing children with the right equipment can help with their education.Giving them a quiet place where they can work, read and do homework, with a good reading light and a comfortable chair and desk, is just some of these things.Parents can also help their children by providing them with some reference books, and any other relevant learning materials they might need.

Evidently, parents do need to take an active role in the education of their children.If parents want their children to do well at school, they must be prepared to help educate their children at home.

29．The passage is mainly talking about that________．

A．education starts at home

B．parents can control their children

C．ability affects a child's academic result

D．good equipment leads to good grades

30．As for most parents，________．

A．they don't think the research result is reasonable

B．they have different opinions with experts

C．they are unaware of what to do for children at home

D．they are lazy in preparing the birthday party

31．If you want to improve your child's maths ability, you can________．

A．prepare his/her birthday party as big as possible

B．leave the things used for the party done by him/her

C．purchase all the things needed by yourself

D．let your children count the cups and so on

Q：My neighbor's back garden is an overgrown jungle for a few months and I believe I've got rats under my shed as a result.I have been troubled by such a bad scene for a long time.Can I make my neighbor manage her back garden?

A：Firstly, you will need to contact a pest control company to deal with the rat problem, which could be a danger to you and your family.The pest control company will produce a report detailing the issue and give an opinion as to whether your neighbor's overgrown garden has caused the rats to run in all directions.

If that is the case, then you should get in contact with your neighbor in an attempt to resolve the issue.You should discuss your concerns with all your heart with your neighbor and advise her of the situation and of the findings of the pest control company.

You do not advise whether the house is rented out or perhaps your neighbor is elderly without the ability to deal with the problem personally.If your neighbor is uncooperative, then I would advise you undertake the following action.

Get in contact with your local authority or the Department of Environment, Community and Local Government and report your concerns, particularly the pest issue immediately.You could also contact the HSE, more especially if children use the garden and are likely to come in contact with rat droppings etc, which can be dangerous to them.If the above is not successful, you should inform your lawyer and take advice.You should also document your conversations with your neighbor.

If your house is for sale, ask your agent to prepare a report outlining the effect of the next door garden on value, but also outlining the effect on marketability and the negative impact on viewings.

Notes：

①uncooperative adj.不愿合作的，不愿配合的　②authority n．权力，职权，官方，当局　③marketability n．可销售性

32．Which of the following is the BEST title for the passage?

A．Can I Make My Neighbor Get Her Garden in Order?

B．Should I Manage My Neighbor's Garden?

C．Why Does My Neighbor Dislike Gardening?

D．What on earth Does My Neighbor Do Every Day?

33．What made the first person ask advice?

A．The badly­organized plants in the garden.

B．The overgrown garden caused rat problem in his shed.

C．Being visited by the unexpected guests.

D．His shed being blocked seriously.

34．What does the pest control company perform?

A．They help tidy up the neighbor's back garden.

B．They only produce a report about rats.

C．They perform a duty to deal with rats.

D．They provide evidence as to pests for anyone.

35．If the guess is TRUE, the asker________．
