We are often asked to make a speech in life. Most of us are afraid of it and don’t do a good job. Here are some simple steps to make your speech a successful one. First of all, find out everything you can about your subject and at the same time find out as much as you can about your audience(听众). Who are they? What do they know about your subject? Put yourself in their shoes as you prepare your speech. Then try to arrange(安排) your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible. Never forget your audience.
Don’t talk over their heads or talk down to them. When you are giving your speech, speak slowly and clearly and look at your audience. Pause for a few seconds from time to time to give your audience chance to think over what you've said. Just remember: be prepared, know your subject and your audience, say what you have to say and be yourself so that your ideas will bring you and your audience together.

Weather changes when the temperature and the
amount of water in the atmosphere change. We can see and feel water coming from
the atmosphere when we have rain. But the water must somehow get back to the
atmosphere. Meteorologists call this the water cycle.
There are many stages in the
water cycle. Rain falls when water vapour in clouds condenses(凝结). Drops of water form and fall to the
ground. The water soaks into the ground and feeds streams and rivers. A lot of
rain falls into the sea. The heat of the sun evaporates some of the water in
the ground and in the rivers, lakes, and the sea. It changes the liquid water
into water vapour. The vapour rises onto the air. Water vapour is normally invisible.
On a very damp or humid day, however, you can sometimes see water vapour rising
from a puddle(水坑) or pond in a mist(薄雾) above the water. Water vapour also gets
into the air from living things. Trees and other plants take in water through
their roots and give off water vapour from their leaves. People and land
animals drink water and breathe out water vapour. In all these ways the water
returns to the air. There it gathers to form clouds and condenses to form rain.
The rain falls to earth, and the cycle starts again. It continues even if snow
or hail(冰雹) fall instead because both
eventually melt to form water. The amount of water vapour in the air depends on
the temperature. The air is more moist(潮湿)
in the tropics(热带) than in the cold polar regions.
64. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Water cycle. B. Water vapour.
C. How rain forms.
D.
Water, vapour, rain.
65.How many ways of the water returning to the air are discussed in the text?
A. Two.
B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
66..Whether water vapour can be seen or not depends on _______.
A. how much water is
evaporated B.
how good your eyes are
C. in which way
water is evaporated D.
climate or weather
67.From the passage we get to know _______.
A. there is more water vapour in
the air in the tropics than in cold polar regions
B. there is more water vapour in
the air in cold polar region than in the tropics
C. it gets more rain in the
tropics than in cold polar regions because there is less vapour
D. the amount of water vapour in
the air depends on how often it rains
D
"Creativity is the key to a brighter future," say education and business experts. Here is how schools and parents can encourage this important skill in children.
If Dick Drew had listened to his boss in 1925, we might not have a product that we now think of as of great importance: a new type of tape. Drew worked for the Minnesota Mining Company. At work he developed a kind of material strong enough to hold things together. But his boss told him not to think more about the idea. Finally, using his own time, Drew improved the tape, which now is used everywhere by many people. And his former company learned from its mistake. Now it encourages people to spend 15 percent of their work time just thinking about and developing new ideas.
Creativity is not something one is just born with, nor is it necessarily a character of high intelligence. The fact a person is highly intelligent does not mean that he uses it creatively. Creativity is the matter of using the resources one has to produce new ideas that are good for something.
Unfortunately, schools have not tried to encourage creativity. With strong attention to test results and the development of reading, writing and mathematical skills, many educators give up creativity for correct answers. The result is that children can give back information but can't recognize ways to use it in new situations. They may know the rules correctly but they are unable to use them to work out practical problems.
It is important to give children choices. From the earliest age, children should be allowed to make decisions and understand their results. Even if it's choosing between two food items for lunch, decision making helps thinking skills. As children grow older, parents should let their children decide how to use their time or spend their money. This is because the most important character of creative people is a very strong desire to find a way out of trouble.
68. The company where Drew once worked learnt from its mistake that ________.
A. they should encourage people to work a longer time
B. they should discourage people to think freely
C. they should ask people to spend all their work time developing new ideas
D. they should encourage people to spend some time considering and improving new ideas
69. Creativity is something_______
A. that people are born with B. that depends on intelligence
C. that is a way of using what one has learned to work out new problems
D. that is not important at all
70. Schools don't try to encourage creativity because ________.
A. they don't understand the importance of education
B. they don’t want their students to make mistakes
C. they pay too much attention to exam marks, language and mathematical skills
D. they think it more important to remember some information
71. Parents should when their children decide how to spend their money.
A. try to help them as much as possible B. take no notice of whatever they do
C. leave them as they are D. help them if their decision is wrong
E
Let's pretend we're sailing down the Rhine River on a pleasure boat. The Rhine is one of the main waterways of Germany, and the river traffic is heavy. It's interesting to watch the many boats going up and down the river. But the river traffic is not nearly so interesting as the beautiful scenery along the banks and hillsides. The boat is passing many old castles. We can see people working in the vineyards (葡萄园) on the hillsides. There are vineyards as far as the eye can see. Wine from the Rhine Valley is famous all over the world.
Suddenly our boat slows down and begins to turn a little. We are coming to a sharp bend in the river. On our right we can see a rocky cliff over 400 feet high. At first it looks quite ordinary, but there is nothing ordinary about it. There are many stories, poems, and songs about the cliff. We are looking at the Lorelei (德国民间文学中传说的女妖) 罗蕾莱.
Then someone on the boat begins to sing in German, the song of the Lorelei. It is a song about a beautiful siren (美女) who has lured (v.引诱)many sailors to their deaths.
The siren is supposed to sit on the rock combing her long golden hair and singing. The sailors who hear her forget to steer, and the current of river hurls their boats on the rocks and dashes them to pieces.
Soon other people on the boat begin to sing. The beautiful song adds to special magic to the moment, and you begin to realize why so many people have made this trip down the Rhine to see the rock of the Lorelei.
72.The more interesting thing to those who are sailing down the Rhine River on a pleasure boat is .
A. to watch many boats going up and down the river
B. to see the beautiful scene along the banks and hillsides
C. to hear a song about beautiful siren
D. to see a beautiful siren combing her golden hair
73. Which of the following is famous all over the world?
A. The Rhine River. B. The River Traffic.
C. Wine from the Rhine Valley. D. The Lorelei.
74. We can see a rocky cliff over 400 feet high .
A. on our right when coming to a sharp bend B. on the Rhine hillsides
C. from the Rhine Valley D. on the boat
75. The song of the Lorelei is about .
A. The Rhine wine B. a rocky cliff
C. the beautiful scenery along the Rhine River D. a beautiful and dangerous woman genie

AIDS is a deadly disease, which is spreading fast throughout our country. As the chart shows, by the end of August, 2005, there had been 102,387 people infected with the HIV virus. The number of people who got AIDS came up to 30,158 and 7,643 people died of this disease. The AIDS virus can be transmitted through many routes. Taking drugs is the main cause of transmission. In our country in 2005,41.9% of AIDS sufferers were drug takers.
In order to prevent the fast spread of AIDS, we middle school students must fully drugs. Besides, we shouldn't look down upon those AIDS sufferers. What they need most is/are care and love.
