The Ku Klux Klan is a secret organization in the United States. It is made up of white people who don’t like people of other races (种族) and do harm to them. Things really started to turn bad when a neighbor’s house was burned down. In her small town, Stella didn’t know whom to trust. Could Stella find the courage to stand up for what’s right?Are the characters believable?Some parts of the characters are not believable. The characters, for example, are either all good or all bad. I prefer characters that are more different and conflicted (矛盾的). The plot, however, is so attractive that I don’t mind. And I always read it for a long time without having a rest. Overall, the writer wisely tells the story through the characters’ points of view. ▲ I think people who enjoy reading historical novels and adventure stories will really like Stella by Starlight. People who are interested in learning the history of black and white people in America will especially enjoy this book.From 1 to 10, which score will you give this book?I will give Stella by Starlight 9 because of its amazing plot and good descriptions.

Quite often there is no official naming ceremony but places tend to be called names as points of reference (参考) by people. Then an organized body steps in and gives the place a name. Often it happens that a place has two names: One is named by the people and the other by the government. As in many areas, old habits died hard, and the place continues to be called by its unofficial name long after the meaning is lost.Many roads and places in Singapore are named in order that the pioneers will be remembered by future generations. Thus we have names such as Stamford Road and Raffles Place. This is in keeping with traditions in many countries—in both the West and the East.Another way of naming places is naming them after other places. Perhaps they were named to promote friendships between the two places or it could be that the people who used to live there were at first from the places that the roads were named after. The mystery is clearer when we see some of the roads named after former British military bases (军事基地). If you step into Selector Airbase you will see Piccadilly Circus—obviously named by some homesick Royal Air Force personnel (人员).Some places were named after the activities that used to go on at those places. Bras Basah Road is an interesting example “Base Basah” means “wet rice” in Malay (马来语). Now why would anyone want to name a road “Wet Rice Road”? The reason is simple. During the pioneering days, wet rice was laid out to dry along this road.A few roads in Singapore are named by their shapes. There is “Circular Road” for one. Other roads may have part of their names to describe their shapes, like “Paya Lebar Crescent”. This road is called a crescent (月牙) because it begins on the main road, makes a crescent and comes back to join the main road again.16. We learn from Paragraph 1 that ________.A. many places tend to have more than one nameB. the government is usually the first to name a placeC. a ceremony will be held when a place is namedD. people prefer the place names given by the government17. What does the underlined phrase “die hard” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Change suddenly.B. Change greatly.C. Disappear very slowly.D. Disappear secretly.18. Which of the following places is named after a person?A. Rafles Place.B. Selector Airbase.C. Piccadilly Circus.D. Paya Lebar Crescent.19. Bras Basah Road is named ________.A. after a personB. after a placeC. by its shapeD. after an activity20. What can be inferred from the passage?A. The way Singaporeans name their places is unique.B. Young Singaporeans have forgotten the pioneers.C. Some place names in Singapore are the same as in Britain.D. Some places in Singapore are named for military purposes.CWhile Jennifer was at home taking an online exam for her business law class, a monitor a few hundred miles away was watching her every move.Using a web camera equipped in Jennifer’s Los Angeles apartment, the monitor in Phoenix tracked how frequently her eyes moved from the computer screen and listened for the secret sounds of a possible helper in the room. Her Internet access was locked-remotely-to prevent Internet searches, and her typing style was analyzed to make sure she was who she said she was: Did she enter her student number at the same speed as she had in the past? Or was she slowing down?In the battle against cheating, this is the cutting edge and a key to encourage honesty in the booming field of online education. The technology gives trust to the entire system, to the institution and to online education in general. Only with solid measures against cheating, experts say, can Internet universities show that their exams and diplomas are valid-that students haven’t just searched the Internet to get the right answers.Although online classes have existed for more than a decade, the concern over cheating has become sharper in the last year with the growth of “open online courses.” Private colleges, public universities and corporations are jumping into the online education field, spending millions of dollars to attract potential students, while also taking steps to help guarantee honesty at a distance. Aside from the web cameras, a number of other high-tech methods are becoming increasingly popular. Among them are programs that check students’ identities using personal information, such as the telephone number they once used.Other programs can produce unique exam by drawing on a large list of questions and can recognize possible cheaters by analyzing whether difficult test question are answered at the same speed as easy ones. As in many university classes, term papers are scanned against some large Internet data banks for cheating.21. Why was Jennifer watched in an online exam?A. To correct her typing mistakes.B. To find her secrets in the room.C To prevent her from slowing down.D. To keep her from dishonest behaviors.22.

Some programs can find out possible cheaters by ______.A. checking the question answering speedB. producing a large number of questionC. scanning the Internet test questionD. giving difficult test question25. Which of the following is the best title of this passage?A. The Advantages of Online ExamsB. The High-tech Methods in Online CoursesC. The Fight against Cheating in Online EducationD. The War against the Booming of Online EducationⅢ. 六选五（每小题2分，共10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。Teachers are often considered to be engineers of the human soul. ____26____ But there’s one person in China who is called the “teacher of teachers”.He is Chinese educator Tao Xingzhi.
