When I was reading a post about taking someone to the movies, something happened a couple of years ago suddenly hit me.
I used to drink Cokes and they had a competition where there was a code inside the bottle cap. You might win something so long as you went to a website and entered the code. I won some free Cokes. But what astonished and delighted me was the Grand Prize I won then.
The Grand Prize was free movies for a year. They pointed out that one movie a week was what free movies for a year meant. All of the tickets were valid(有效的)for one year from the day I received them. So I must use them in the following year. 1 used quite a few taking friends to movies we all wanted to see.
Then I donated 20 tickets(all I had left by that time)to the local Women's Transition House. Women and children could go there when they want to avoid a bad situation in general and get help to make a new start. It was the best thing I did with the tickets.
My workplace team had decided to help people in need, so we collected donations for that particular New Year's Day. I knew that the Women's Transition House provided some childcare for the women so they could go for job interviews and things like that.
I put those tickets in a box and wrote a note on the outside. And I asked the Women's Transition House staff to give movie tickets to women there over the holidays to have some fun to do, with or without their children, which made me really happy.
4．How did the author get the tickets
A．By visiting a website by chance. B．By reading a post.
C．By getting a code from a website. D．By winning the prize for drinking Cokes.
5．How many tickets did the author donate
A．10. B．20. C．30. D．40.
6．Which of the following best describe the author
A．Lucky and caring. B．Strict and careful.
C．Responsible and patient. D．Brave and kind.
7．Which of the following proverb can best explain the main idea of this article
A．Actions speak louder than words. B．Good luck favors those who are always ready.
C．The roses in their hands, the flavor in mine. D．God helps those who help themselves.

In south Africa’s Limpopo province, a baobab tree (猴面包树) once grew so large and stood so strong that its human neighbors decided to build a pub inside the living tree’s thousand-year-old hollow trunk(树干). For 20 years, “The Big Baobab Pub” attracted tourists all over the world. But in August 2016, one of “the walls” broke. Eight months later, another huge piece broke, too. Now, five of the giant stems have collapsed and died, leaving only half of the tree standing.
Though it could sound like a result of human visitation, it's part of an alarming trend: many of the oldest, largest baobab trees in Africa have died within the last 12 years.
Stephan Woodbourne, an African scientist, said: “Of the oldest trees that we’ve looked at in Southern Africa, the three trees that are older than 2,000 years have all died in the past 10 years. Of the 11 trees that are 1,000 to 2,000 years old, six of them have died.”
A report published in the journal Nature Plants claims scores of the ancient baobab trees, some of which are up to 3,000 years old, are now dying because of rising global temperatures.
Researchers believe it is impossible that such a high number of old baobab trees die in such a short time due to natural causes. They think it may be associated with huge change of climate conditions that affect southern Africa in particular.
8．What has happened to The Big Baobab Pub
A．The pub has largely been destroyed.
B．More tourists from the world visit it.
C．The pub has a long history of 2,000 years.
D．The Baobab Tree grows larger and stronger.
9．The paragraphs from 2 to 4 mainly tell us that ________.
A．all the oldest baobab trees have been dead
B．the oldest baobab trees will die out soon
C．ancient baobab trees are in the face of danger
D．Human’s visits lead to ancient baobab trees’ deaths
10．What is probably the main reason for the trees’ death
A．Many pubs’ foundation. B．Global climate changes.
C．Human visitation. D．Natural causes.
11．What’s the best title of the passage
A．Research on Baobab Tree. B．Facts about Baobab Tree.
C．Baobab Tree in Africa. D．Tree of Life is Dying.
D
Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there are a number of reasons for this.
Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take-away food.
There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree with this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives.
There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime （消遣）, it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.
The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.
12．According to the text, what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food
A．Those who often do sports B．Those who often walk to school
C．Those who often watch television D．Those who often have meals at home
13．The author thinks that children are becoming overweight because ________.
A．their parents often cook meals for them
B．they are too busy to go out and play
C．they can't choose what to eat
D．there are too many fast food shops around
14．What does the underlined word "steering" in the last sentence most probably means
A．moving B．forcing.
C．driving D．guiding.
15．The main purpose of the text is to ________.
A．tell a story B．provide facts
C．give advice D．compare opinions

Among various outdoor activities，going climbing with my friends is my favorite.
While climbing the mountain, I can appreciate the beauty of nature, talking and laughing with my friends. It gives me a sense of freedom and relaxation, especially when I stand on top of the mountain. Besides, climbing mountains regularly keeps me fit both mentally and physically. It also strengthens my willpower.
So much does mountain climbing benefit me that I invite my friends to do it as long as we can spare time. I hope everyone can join in such beneficial outdoor activities.
