For most of us,swinging (摆动)360 degrees around the spindle (轴)of a swing set is a distant childhood dream,but for some people in Estonia,it's what they never grow out of.Not only do they still love struggling against gravity (重力),but they actually have created a competitive sport around their favorite entertainment.That sport is known as "kiiking".
Swings are deep in Estonian culture,and you can still find various types of swings in villages and towns all around the country.They are used by children and adults alike,either for simple fun,or as a way for communities to bond during celebrations.So maybe it doesn't come as a big surprise that Estonia has an extreme sport based on swinging.Some people see it as dull,others as pointless,but to those who practice it,kiiking is the coolest thing in the world.
The rules of kiiking are pretty petitors start swinging at a certain height,and if they can complete a full circuit (圈)around the spindle,they can try to do the same after the swing has been raised a little,and so on.Those who fail to do a full spindle are left with the result of their last successful try.
Watching kiiking videos might give you the impression that it's an easy sport,but Laansalu,who has been practicing it since she was 8 years old,says it requires both great physical strength-strong legs and strong arms-and technique-knowing when to stand or sit in the swing chair,when to push yourself over the spindle of the swing and how to avoid injury.
Small groups of kiikers have been appearing in other countries,including the United States,but now it is still considered as an Estonian sport.There are no international kiiking competitions yet,but Estonia has several national kiiking events throughout the year.
What can we know about kiiking? ______
A. It is very easy and safe. B. It is intended for children.
C. It is an international sport. D. It is developed from swinging.
What should competitors pay attention to in kiiking according to the text? ______
A. The strength of the swing.
B. The way to push themselves.
C. The time to stand or sit on the swing.
D. The position where they end the sport.
What decides the success in kiiking? ______
A. The number of circuits he completes.
B. The height where he completes a full circuit.
C. How long it takes to complete a full circuit.
D. How long he performs on the swing.

Every festival has its own meaning.Labor Day,for example,celebrates the value of hard work.Thanksgiving is about showing thanks to people around you.And Valentines' Day is a time when you express love to your loved ones.But somehow it now seems that all festivals we just care about one thing—shopping.And that can be a big problem.
"In a way,over-consumption(过度消费)is the mother of all our environmental problems." Kalle Lasn once told CNN.Lasn is the organizer of Buy Nothing Day,a day set up in Canada in 1992 to fight against unhealthy spending habits,and has now become an international event.It's held on the day,which is known as Black Fridny—a famous shopping day in the US and Canada.
You can see the irony(讽刺)here.
Even though the idea of Buy Nothing Day was brought up 26 years ago,we seem to need it now more than ever.It's just as Lasn said,all the different kinds of pollution in our lives today bad air quality,the reduction of forest area,endangered animal species,and plastic bags found in the ocean—seem to be the same cause:over-consumption.
The latest example is the Singles' Day shopping craze of Nov 11,which saw a new sales record.But as Nie Li,a campaigner at Greenpeace,told Reuters. "Record-setting over-consumption means record-setting waste. " And it was reported that last year the Singles' Day packages left more than 160,000 tons of waste,including plastic and cardboard.The Collins dictionary has also just named "single-use" its Word of the Year,pointing out the problem that there're too many things we tow out after only using them once.
So,Buy Nothing Day might only be here for one day a year,but it's not just to remind us to the a break from shopping on that day,but to change our lifestyle completely,focusing on fun "with people we care about" rather than wasting money on useless things.
What's the authors purpose of writing the first paragraph? ______
A. To express the people's love for all festivals.
B. To talk about the meaning of the festivals.
C. To appreciate the value of the festivals.
D. To bring out the topic of the passage.
Why did Kalle Lasn organize Buy Nothing Day? ______
A. To help people save money. B. To cut the cost for daily life.
C. To prevent over-consumption. D. To set up a new sales record.
What's Nie Li's attitude towards the shopping craze? ______
A. Opposed(反对的). B. Supportive.
C. Unknown. D. Neutral(中立的).
What can be a suitable title for the passage? ______
A. Creating a New Lifestyle B. Buy Nothing Day
C. Festivals Around the World D. A Change in People's Life

Nowadays, people have a heated discussion on whether the pressure on international sports players kills the essence of sport --- the pursuit of personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. The individual representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying himself; he has to think only about winning. He is responsible for the entire nation's hopes, dreams and reputation.
A good example is the football World Cup. Football is the world's most important sport. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. Mention Argentina to someone and the chances are that he'll think of football. In a sense, winning the World Cup put Argentina on the map.
Sports fans and supporters get quite irrational about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses, and spent all their money travelling to Argentina, where the finals were played.
So, am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sport? Certainly not! Do the Argentinians really believe that because eleven of their men proved the most skillful at football, their nation is in every way better than all others? Not really, but it's nice to know that you won and that in one way at least your country is the best.
According to the passage, if a sportsman only thinks about winning, he will ______ .
A. fail to succeed B. lose enjoyment
C. achieve success D. go unreasonable
The main idea of the first paragraph is that ______ .
A. children take part in all kinds of sports because sports activities give them pleasure.
B. competitions between different school teams make sports no longer a personal act for fun.
C. some people believe that international competition makes sports a task, a responsibility, for the individuals.
D. some people think international competition is in a way opposite to the pursuit of personal excellence.
What does the speaker mean when he says "In a sense, winning the World Cup put Argentina on the map"? ______
A. Winning the World Cup makes Argentina a football power in the world.
B. Argentina is not important before it wins the World Cup.
C. Winning the World Cup gives weight to Argentina's position in the world.
D. Argentina is world-famous for its football because of its obvious position on the map.
The word "irrational" in the third paragraph means ______ .
A. passionate B. unreasonable C. angry D. happy

With modern technology becoming popular, much written communication tends to focus on the keyboard,but handwriting is still a necessary and important skill. (1) Here are some tips for you to improve your handwriting.
Examine Your Handwriting. (2) Look through your writing to decide what makes it difficult to read or what makes it unattractive. Perhaps you write your letters too small. Check on spacing of letters and words, and proper formation of letters. If your letters are small, put more effort into writing larger letters. If you are stuck by certain letters, practice those letters separately and within words.
Write Correctly. Positioning and technique play a role in how your handwriting looks. Hold the pen between your thumb and first two fingers so that it rests against your fingers. Hold it firmly enough to control the tip but not so hard that it hurts your fingers. Lighter pressure on the paper helps you create smooth lines and focus on your letter formation. (3)
(4) Letters are formed from several basic strokes(笔画). Practice those strokes separately to get your hand used to forming them. Strokes found in letters include vertical lines, horizontal lines, and circles. Build on those to practice specific letters.
Write for a Purpose. Teach young children handwriting in meaningful contexts. Use that same idea by picking up a pen to write lists and notes by hand instead of typing. Keep a journal daily with slow, correct strokes. (5) These true and sincere writing opportunities make the practice meaningful.
A.Build on Basics.
B.Practice makes perfect.
C.Focus on improving your correctness instead of speed.
D.Writing at a slower speed also helps you focus on letter formation.
E.Put a handwritten letter in the mail to surprise a friend or a relative.
F.Handwriting requires your brain, eyes and hands to work together to form letters.
G.Before you can improve your handwriting, you need to know where your problem lies.

" That's when I(54)the hooded sweatshirt and everyone could see I was a woman.Then people went(55).They started shouting and clapping, "Way to go,girlie!"

As we head towards midwinter all seems quiet in the garden, but now is the perfect time for (1) (plant) a tree. Are you worrying about not having the space? Are you gardening on concrete? There (2) (be) a simple solution (3) the problems: grow a small tree in a pot. This is often overlooked, so in an effort (4) (change)that, here is a list of the best species for pot growing, (5) will work well in even the tiniest of the city gardens.
The most (6) (common) suggested candidate for this treatment is an olive(橄榄树)---and with good reason. They are evergreen and have character from a young age.
If you want something (7) (usual), I'd give dwarf eucalypus (8) try. Eucalypus kybeannensis is much slower growing than its cousins, creating an airy treetop of fragrant leaves on trees just 5m tall.
Finally, if bright (9) (colour) are more your thing, you can choose Cercis canadensis "Forest Pansy"(加拿大红叶紫荆). It is clothed all summer in rich and heart-shaped leaves with bare branches (10) (decorate) with pink flowers in the spring.

详解:
(1)have后加been.考查语态。句意:随着互联网的飞速发展,越来越多的汉语新词新语应运而生。creat和句子主语之间是被动关系,所以用被动语态,前面有have ,所以用用been构成现在完成时态的被动语态,故have后加been.
(2)examples前去掉as.考查句子结构。句意:下面是一些例子。本句为倒装句,主语为some examples,as多余,故examples前去掉as.
(3)of后加the.考查冠词。句意:其中一个最流行的词是"点赞",当你非常赞同某人时经常使用。形容词最高级前面加定冠词,故of后加the.
(4)that改为which.考查非限制性定语从句。句意:其中一个最流行的词是"点赞",当你非常赞同某人时经常使用。先行词为物,在非限制性定语从句中作主语,故that改为which.
(5)agree后加with.考查介词。句意:其中一个最流行的词是"点赞",当你非常赞同某人时经常使用。agree with sb.同意某人的意见,为固定搭配,故agree后加with.
(6)however改为whatever.考查宾语从句的。句意:当你说某人"任性"的时候,你的意思是他们会做任何他们想做的事。引导宾语从句,在从句中作宾语,表示"无论什么",所以用whatever引导,however后跟形容词、副词,故however改为whatever.
(7)come改为came.考查时态。句意:"秒杀"这个短语最初来自网购,意思是你可以比别人先完成你的购物订单。描述过去的事情,所以用一般过去时态,故come改为came.
(8)And改为But.考查连词。句意:"秒杀"这个短语最初来自网购,意思是你可以比别人先完成你的购物订单。但现在,它被广泛使用于当你在很短的时间内达到你的目的时,前后是转折关系而不是并列关系,所以用but连接,故And改为But.
(9)wide改为widely.考查副词。句意:但现在,它被广泛使用于当你在很短的时间内达到你的目的时,修饰动词,所以用副词,表示抽象意义,所以用widely,wide当作副词时,表示具体的情况,故wide改为widely.
(10)learn改为learning.考查动名词。句意:不断学习,你会对中国文化有更多的了解。keep doing sth.继续做某事,故learn改为learning.
