His father died when George was 11 years old. As a boy, he learned reading, writing and math. Then he worked as a landsurveyorin western Virginia.In his twenties, he became a British Army officer. George Washington fought in the French and Indian War.Mr. Ellis points out that Washington did not have a formal or college education like many other early U.S. leaders, including John Adams and Thomas Jefferson.But in some sense, Adams goes to Harvard, and Jefferson goes to William and Mary and Washington goes to war.Mr. Ellis says the first president was a realist. At the same time, he was a very passionate man with extremely strong emotions. He was known to get angry, but he only showed histemperto a few people.Washington not only acted like a great leader he looked like one. George Washington stood about 1.9 meters tall. He was a head taller than the average man of his time.He was very strong, and verygraceful.He was known as one of the best horseback riders and best dancers in Virginia.But he had a problem: bad teeth. Unlike his wife, Martha, who was known for her lovely smile, George Washington began losing his teeth in his twenties. When he was sworn in as president, he had only one tooth left.Dentists made him sets ofdenturesfrom uncomfortable metal and springs. Some of the teeth were from hippopotamus ivory. Mr. Ellis says Washington even paid some of his slaves for their teeth.About six of the teeth in his mouth in his latter years, when he is president, are actually from slaves at Mount Vernon.1.

However, scientists in the Netherlands recently found that you do not need to eat many to get all the health benefits. Professor van den Brandt says What we found is that the beneficial effect(s) of nuts and peanuts is already apparent at a lot lower levels of intake than has been suggested before. About 10 grams a day is enough to get the full health benefits of nuts. That is about an average-sized handful.Nuts are high in fat and calories. So, eating a handful before dinner can help you to eat less. But eating too many can ruin your appetitealtogether. However, the researchers found that many peanut butters did not give the same health benefits as plain peanuts. That is because most peanut butters contain added oils and sugars. Also, when choosing which nuts to eat, avoid those stored or roasted in oil. Dry-roasted is better but still the high temperatures can kill the healthynutrients.Nuts are most healthy if you eat them raw.Not all nuts are created equal. Nuts differ in their fat and nutrient content. Almonds are among the least fatty nuts. Almonds also have calcium and are high in Vitamin E. Vitamin E helps to protect the body from disease. And its good for skin and eyes. Chestnuts are the nut with the least fat and fewest calories. Chestnuts are rich in carbohydrates and fiber. And in their raw form, chestnuts are a good source of vitamin C. Roasted chestnuts are a popular treat in the winter. Walnuts are loaded with antioxidants, compounds that may help protect against cancer. They are also loaded with heart-friendly fats andomega-3s. So, walnuts are a good choice for people who do not eat fish.5. Scientists have recently found out that _.A. people should eat as many nuts as possibleB. 10 grams of nuts can replace a mealC. eating too many nuts is unnecessaryD. eating nuts is good for the brain.6. From the passage we know that _.A. people should eat some nuts before dinner.B. peanut butters are as healthy as plain peanutsC. dry-roasted nuts are more healthy than oil-roasted nutsD. eating nuts before dinner can ruin your appetite7.Which of the following is similar to the underlined word “raw” in Paragraph 2?

According to the passage，all the four programs .A. have the same teaching hoursB. have outdoor activitiesC. are offered during summer holidaysD. are designed for primary school students DIf you have seen or heard of the British TV series Downton Abbey, you have probably noticed an “upstairsdownstairs” class system in which the noble people are upstairs，worrying what clothes they should wear for dinner and the poor people are downstairs, working hard to make food and tea. So its not hard to tell that people are divided into different classes. British society has changed a lot since the days of Downton Abbey, but the division still exists and the funny accents do, too.Nowadays, what divides Britons is the socalled “NorthSouth divide”. As you make your way north from the south coast of England, the accent begins to change. The posh “How are you” in parts of the South becomes “Ahhdu” (how do you do) in the Midlands, “reeit” (are you alright) in the North West, “eyyup” (whats up) in Yorkshire, and “hous it gaun” (hows it going) in Scotland. Besides accents, the economy also changes. The rich southern city of London slowly becomes the North where people generally have less money.So where does the “South” stop being the “South” and the “North” start being the “North”? Well, depending on where someone comes from in Britain, youll get a different answer.“Anywhere above London is the North,” you might hear a Londoner say. Or if youre in Scotland, you might hear, “Southern softer!”, talking about people from Lancashire or Yorkshire, who think of themselves as “hard(tough) Northerners”. “Anywhere south of Manchester is not northern,” you might hear a person from Manchester say.Many stereotypes(成見) have come from the “NorthSouth Divide”, too. Often, southerners are seen as being rude and snobbish by northerners. And northerners are often seen as uneducated by southerners.12.

What is the passage mainly talking about?A. British accents are different from North to South.B. Class division is getting smaller at present.C. It is about the “NorthSouth Division” and its influence.D. Northerners and Southerners dislike each other in Britain.第二節(jié) (共5小題，每小題2分，滿分10分)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。Tips for preparing your presentationPreparing the story message helps speakers give a successful presentation. 16 , which are as follows.
