teachers that we have to choose from. So let's get started. First, let's talk about Mr. Ryan. He's pretty new to our school — he came here last year. Everyone says he's inspiring. And he has a lot of energy. Next, Mrs. Lafferty's on our list. She was“Teacher of the Year” last year! She's really intelligent and her classes are great. Students love her because she is so encouraging. She always gives support by saying good things. OK, next is Mr Peters. To tell the truth, he isn't such a popular teacher. His class is hard but he's serious and people respect him. The last teacher on our list is Ms. Jones. She's also serious and she works hard. She often stays after school to meet with students to help them with their studies. OK. That's all the information of these teachers. Why don't we take a five-minute break to think about this and come back and decide?

Are you looking for a place to spend a holiday? Here are two great beaches for you to consider.

Yasawa Island Beach, Fiji

The Yasawa Islands are popular for unspoiled (未经破坏的) beaches and clear blue-green waters. Many mountains stand nearby as well. They offer people a much-needed break from their busy lives. With natural beauty and a lot of sunshine, the islands have become a perfect place to relax. Popular with backpackers, the South Pacific islands also offer many activities such as sailing, visiting local villages and enjoying and evening on the beach with campfires and barbecues. In particular, the Yasawa Island Beach is an affordable relaxing place for tourists.

Eagle Beach, Aruba

Even if you are not one of many American students taking a break from the stresses of college life, you have probably heard people talk about the island — how it offers wild adventures and relaxing activities. No one can say “no” to its Caribbean charm (魅力). In particular, if you have been to Eagle Beach, you will never regret the trip to Aruba. Like an eagle that spreads its wings widely, the beach is known for its long coastline. The Eagle Beach is also known for its soft white sands and clear waters. However, what you can see is not just a wide view of sand and sea. If you're lucky, you can observe sea turtle hatchlings (幼崽) as they make their way to the ocean.

When I took Amy home from the animal shelter, she was scared. I believed she had been abused (虐待) because she was afraid of anything my husband, Bill, or I held in our hands. With a lot of care and attention, she became a great dog that surprised us every day.

About three years ago, Amy and I joined a volunteer project called Canines with Class. At our first school visit, Officer Lisa called Amy and asked her to show how to shake hands and give a high five. The students clapped (拍手) in joy and Amy received a reward. Then the students got to touch the dog. One by one they came up to meet Amy.

Some of them started talking to me about their own pets. I didn't feel worried any more. I thought the children liked staying with us.

On our next school visit, I put a big chain (链条) on Amy's neck and walked away from her. You could see that Amy was not happy. When I took the chain off her neck, Amy shook her tail happily and wouldn't stop licking (舔) my face. That was when we talked about “breaking the chain”.

On our third school trip, Amy started acting poorly when it was time to show off a few tricks. The students watched to see how I would correct her mistakes. It was a good chance to explain that if your dog doesn't do exactly what you ask, you don't have to shout at her or hit her to make it right. I think the children have learned a lot about respect and patience.

Amy loves the program and has come so far since I found her a few years ago. Amy has

The Museum of London is starting to unearth what might turn out to be as many as 3,000 human skeletons (遗骸) under a train station in the United Kingdom's capital. The bones were

exposed when workers began building a new entrance to a train station in London, England. As the first city burial (埋葬) ground in London, Bedlam was probably used between 1569 and 1738. Its name comes from the nearby Hospital of Saint Mary of Bethlehem, which people also called Bedlam. Often, the people buried in Bedlam could not afford to be buried anywhere else. The burial ground also served as an overflow cemetery (墓地). That means that if other cemeteries became full, a person would be buried in Bedlam instead. It is believed that there could be a total of 20,000 skeletons in the overall burial ground.

Experts think studying the skeletons may help them learn about London's past, including questions about the Black Death, a deadly disease that had a terrible influence on much of the world. It started in the mid-1300s and swept through Asia, Africa, and Europe. Historians believe almost 50 million people died of the disease, including many of those buried at Bedlam. “Sixteen sixty-five saw the very last recorded period of the disease,” says Jay Carver, the leading expert on the project. Carver and his team believe the Bedlam bodies may explain why the outbreak suddenly stopped.

The dig site also sits above an even older Roman (古罗马的) road (between the 2nd and 3rd century A.D.). Archaeologists (考古学家) have already found a large number of objects from Roman times, including horseshoes and urns. Nick Elsden, the project manager for the site, says,“This is the UK's largest archaeology project, in what is one of the oldest areas of the city, so we stand to learn a great deal.”

语篇解读:本文是记叙文。文章主要介绍了伦敦修建车站时发现的一些遗骸。 28.The underlined word “exposed” in Paragraph 1 can best be replaced by “________”. A.discovered C.returned

B.searched D.studied

29.We can learn from the text that Bedlam________. A.served as a cemetery for rich people B.was once taken up by the Romans C.got its name thanks to Jay Carver D.used to be a train station

解析:选B 推理判断题。由最后一段中的“The dig site also sits above an even older Roman (古罗马的) road”和“a large number of objects from Roman times”可知,Bedlam曾被古罗马人侵占,故选B项。

30.What was expressed in Nick Elsden's words?
