Each year on World Book Day, all the students and teachers in my kids’ primary school dress up as book characters and stage a parade (游行) through the Victorian schoolyard, bringing great happiness to the children.
Yet I am rather disheartened by how my fellow parents look at World Book Day. “It’s too competitive!” “Way too much effort!” My fellow parents are missing the point.
World Book Day should be a wonderful celebration of stories and the love of reading. British children are reading less than ever before. Just one in four reads each day, according to a survey done by the National Literacy Trust on World Book Day.
We need World Book Day. We need a day to celebrate the pleasure to be found in reading. But this festival has changed in recent years because we’re just not playing by the rules.
Among the news stories I’ve read recently, parents compete to see who has made the best costumes (化装服) for their kids. We’re overlooking the point of the day: to celebrate books. So, as a step to correcting things, let’s first make sure our children all continue to have access to great books— at school, at libraries and at home.
And then, let’s read them. A few weeks ago, I started a new routine (日常事务) in my house in which we must all read together for half an hour. Ifs not very difficult; we’ve been managing it about once a week. My husband, our eight-year-old and I love it; my six-year-old has more trouble staying focused. But just this morning he crawled into bed with me with a book under his arm and we read for five minutes, silently side-by-side, before the morning rush began.
Sharing books with children is life’s greatest joy. Don’t let that get lost in the overexcitement of fancy dress.
49. What happens at the school of the author’s kids on World Book Day
A. Teachers hold book shows.
B. Students read in the schoolyard.
C. Students dress up in special clothes.
D. Teachers hold reading competitions.
50. What does the survey done by the National Literacy Trust show
A. Many British children are weak in reading.
B. Few parents read together with their children.
C. Many British children spend little time reading.
D. Most parents have a low opinion of World Book Day.
51. What does the underlined word “overlooking” in Paragraph 5 mean
A. Doubting. B. Failing to consider.
C. Changing. D. Beginning to get.
52. The text mainly wants to tell us parents should ______.
A. take World Book Day as a reminder to read with their kids
B. pay much more attention to the excitement of pure reading
C. encourage their kids to take part in more reading activities
D. read more books to share with children and to compete with others
C
An Olympic Village is a place that houses Olympic competitors. It is a place where they prepare for what might be the most important moment in their life. But we want to know more about this mysterious (神秘的) place: What really happens in the village
We asked swimmer Natalie Coughlin, a three-time Olympian and 12-time medalist. She says, “People think it’s a lot more attractive and interesting than it is. It isn’t It’s like a huge college campus, including a bank, a salon, a post office, and a huge cafeteria— except that everyone is anxious, getting ready for their biggest event under unbelievably high pressure.”
But some other Olympians look differently at their campus. “It’s like the first day of college,” water polo player Tony Azevedo says. “You’re super excited Everyone’s meeting people and trying to socialize with others.”
Coughlin says the best spot to be in the village is the cafeteria. Not only does it provide a place to talk with the rest of the athletes from your country, but it’s a great chance for people-watching. One of her favorite games was to tell what sport someone in front of her took based on their body type.
Living in the same village means athletes run into one another all the time. Coughlin shares this story: While in London in 2012, at one point applause (欢呼) broke out at the arrival of someone. Coughlin thought it was one of the British royals, but it was Jamaica’s Usain Bolt (the world’s greatest runner alive). Runner Allyson Felix— a winner of six gold Olympic medals— has also had her run-ins. In 2008, she came across the world-famous U.S. men’s basketball team, including Anthony, Bryant, Wade and other top players.
It’s “a pretty wild scene, the biggest melting pot— a place where large numbers of people, ideas, and cultures are mixed together— you’ve been in,” said swimmer Eric Shanteau. Felix agrees, saying, “You get to meet people from other countries that you wouldn’t even come into contact with. To me that’s the coolest thing.”
53. The purpose of the first paragraph is to ______.
A. provide examples
B. present research findings
C. introduce the topic
D. give suggestions
54. What does Coughlin say about the Olympic villagers
A. They are very nervous.
B. They like to make friends.
C. They enjoy the village very much.
D. They spend most of their time relaxing.
55. What did Coughlin often do at the cafeteria in the Olympic Village
A. She often watched other people play games there.
B. She often spent time with athletes from other countries.
C. She often gave fitness advice to others according to their body features.
D. She often tried guessing a person’s sport
56. What do both Coughlin and Felix tell us in Paragraph 5
A. Why Olympians are so popular.
B. How they met superstars in the village.
C. Why the Olympic Village is mysterious.
D. How they communicated with other players.
57. What impresses Felix most in the Olympic Village
A. Spending time with some old foreign friends.
B. The positive influence of the Olympic spirit.
C. Mixing with people from around the world.
D. The competitive atmosphere in the village.

Tyson Terry wakes up, gets ready for school, and then turns on his computer. Ifs his first day of seventh grade. But he’s not going anywhere. Nowadays, going to school has become unsafe for him and many other students around the world.
For many students, distance learning has become the usual state. They have to take classes on virtual platforms (虚拟平台). Besides, kids are also stuck at home during their free time. Tyson and his friends can chat with each other only on screens.
A recent study shows that Tyson and his friends aren’t the only young people getting plenty of screen time these days. In April 2020, almost 1,500 parents in Canada reported their kids had less exercise and more screen time. Researchers have found that kids who spend a lot of time on screens are more likely to have eye problems and trouble with reading. Yet right now, screens are the only safe way to learn or socialize. How should they get out of this dilemma (困境)
“I think to say screen time is bad or good is both dangerous,” says Michelle Guerrero who studies diseases. Different types of screen time have both costs and advantages, she says. You should be mindful of how much screen time you get. But for many families, “right now, staying within two hours is just not realistic.”
Taren Sanders, a health scientist, agrees. “Overall, I’m not too concerned about the additional screen time kids are having,” he says. The things you should be thinking about are the amount of exercise you get and the way you spend your free time.
The biggest problem with screens is that people usually sit without moving while they watch screens. A long time sitting leads to bad changes in one’s body and is more likely to cause health problems. So an important question to ask yourself is not how much screen time you are getting, but how active you are.
58. What does the example of Tyson mainly show
A. Students want to spend their free time at home.
B. Students enjoy the new learning method.
C. Students prefer online communication.
D. Students have more screen time.
59. Which of the following may Michelle Guerrero agree with
A. Students should control their screen time.
B. Screen time has a lot to do with health levels.
C. Many families are shortening their screen time.
D. Distance learning works against many students’ progress.
60. What is a main problem according to Taren Sanders
A. Students,poor exercise habits.
B. The additional screen time students have.
C. More screen time leading to a long time sitting.
D. Students having no idea how to spend their free time.

阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
On my first day at senior high, I arrived, and I went to the gym for the pep rally (动员大会). I felt nervous because I didn’t know anybody. I sat down and then made a new friend, Nick.
After the pep rally, Nick and I walked out of the gym to our first class, Mr. Malouf’s ancient civilization(文明). We walked through the hallways looking for the classroom. As we were walking, I realized all the hallways looked like the inside of a hospital. I wasn’t used to being in a school without much decoration (装饰). My junior high was covered with projects on the hallways’ walls.
When Nick and I met Mr. Malouf we saw that he was of average height and had brown hair. The class could tell from his introduction that he knew how everyone in the class felt. With his care and understanding, we were comforted after Mr. Malouf said “Okay, I know that this is your first day at senior high, but I still want this to be a good first class of senior high even though you are all thinking I’m so nervous because this is my first class!”, Afterwards, our classmates introduce themselves to the other members of the class. Next, Mr. Malouf told the class about his background. After the class, Nick and I verbally (口头地) exchanged schedules and went to our next classes wherever they happened to be.
I had pictured my first day at senior high would be like the ones you see in the movies, but it wasn’t. The first day at senior high in the movies usually shows a solitary teenager who is sitting by himself at lunch. But my day was so wonderful. It made me realize that people should believe that wonderful things do happen instead of always worrying about the bad things in life. I’d like to thank my friends and teachers who gave me such a good first day at senior high.
