Even in preschool, I tried to avoid the groups at play. I just didn’t fit in. But I kept on smiling and trying to be friendly.The adults in my life were more easily understood than my peers (同龄人). I couldn’t understand why none of them lived up to the adult standards. Manners, vocabulary, reading... all of these meant nothing to them. They were children. At that point, I wasn’t any more.I started kindergarten (幼儿园) knowing how to count to 100 and how to read. But even though I was far ahead of some of the other children, I was no perfect student. I was excited by all the friends I could make. But soon I discovered that I was hurt easily by their words. I made friends, but I didn’t keep them, and eventually, I was left alone. I sat alone, trying to keep happy and pretending that I didn’t need anyone else to be happy.My parents loved me. I know they did. My mom became the main earner when I was very young. My dad also worked hard, but he didn’t get paid quite well. But I don’t understand why I’d always been left to my own toys as a child. I explored the world in my own way, which gave me loneliness. The loneliness would invade (入侵) my body and pull me down to the floor, making me cry and bite myself. My life was damaged by the loneliness for years. Unlike other children at my age, I really didn’t have a friend to spend time with. So I made them in my head.The loneliness still controls me now. It’s the reason I was diagnosed with Dissociative Identity Disorder (被诊断患有分离性身份识别障碍) (DID). At times, I feel the choking and biting, and I know it’s the younger me reminding me I still have a lot to move beyond.41．What ?A．He was very afraid of adults.B．.C．’t like to take part in activities.D．.42．What?A．He ’t become a perfect student.B．He .C．He .D．He ’ words.43．A．B．C．D．44．A．B．C．D．45．he passage is mainly about________.A．B．C．D．BCould cities that float (漂浮) on the sea solve the problems caused by floods (洪水) and provide food for the world?Some scientists think so. The idea is already being tested and they believe that floating cities will provide more homes for a growing population, without having to use land needed to grow food. And they believe floating areas will allow more food to be grown, so that no one in the world is hungry.In some places, cities that float on the sea are already being planned. A company in the Netherlands called DeltaSync thinks that the sea cities will save the world, with more than one in ten people living in them.They say sea cities solve many problems the world faces in the 21st century, like not having enough land, more and more people needing homes, fossil fuels (矿物燃料) running low and the increasingly serious problems caused by floods.DeltaSync says building in the desert (沙漠) is not possible because there is not enough water and that developing ways for people to live in space is still too expensive. So they believe the answer is our oceans, which cover over two thirds of the Earth’s surface. Their plans for floating areas include using algae (海藻) to produce fuel and food.More than a quarter of the land in the Netherlands already lies underwater and scientists there have spent years trying to find ways to deal with it. In the city of Rotterdam they already have floating homes.Bart Roeffen from DeltaSync广东省茂名市高州中学2013-2014学年高二上学期期中考试英语试题
