The Charming City—Madrid
History
This city of over 3 million people is proud of Western Europe’s largest royal palace, and some consider it to be Madrid’s most beautiful building. Inside the palace, 3418 rooms are decorated in glory with museum-quality furniture and artworks. Tourists can tour 50 of these large and splendid rooms.
Art
The internationally respected Prado Museum is the largest and most impressive art gallery in Spain. Opened in 1819, it is filled with works of art that feature the world’s most comprehensive collection of Spanish paintings.
Shopping
Madrid has some of Europe’s best shopping malls, and potential buyers love to look through the stores, looking for bargains. But for 500 years, shoppers have gathered to an extremely large outdoor flea market, known as EI Rastro where they find everything from antiques(古玩)to CDs.
Entertainment
No trip to Madrid is complete without seeing a performance of Spain’s famous art form, flamenco. Every day, flamenco performers sing, dance or play the guitar in small cafes and grand theaters alike.
Food
Madrid has a wide variety of restaurants, but because the Spanish typically eat late at about 9 or 10 p.m., it’s difficult to find good dinner food earlier, If you get hungry before then, the best solution is to try a tapas bar where light snacks are served. Be sure to try the jamon, a kind of dry-cured ham. Spain is famous for it.

A. It can hold 3418 people. B. It has 50 rooms for a visit.

A little boy almost thought of himself as the most unfortunate child in the world because of poliomyelitis (小儿麻痹症). He seldom played with his classmates;and when the teacher asked him to answer questions, he always lowered his head without a word.
One spring, the boy’s father asked for some saplings (树苗) from the neighbor, He told his children to plant a sapling each person. The father said, “Whose seedling grows best, I will buy him or her a favorite gift.” The boy also wanted to get his father’s gift. But seeing his brothers and sisters carrying water to water the trees happily, anyhow, he hit upon an idea: The tree he planted would die soon. So after watering it once or twice, he never attended to it.
A few days later, when the little boy went to see his tree again, he was surprised to find it not only didn’t bend towards the ground, but also grew some fresh leaves, and compared with the trees of his brothers and sisters’, his appeared greener and more vital. His father kept his promise, bought the little boy his favorite gift and said to him he would become an outstanding botanist when he grew up.
Since then, the little boy slowly became optimistic. One day, the little boy lay on the bed but couldn’t sleep. Looking at the bright moonlight outside the window, he suddenly recalled what the biology teacher once said, plants generally grow at night. Why not go to see the tree When he came to the courtyard on tiptoe, he found his father was splashing something under his tree with a ladle. He returned to his room, tears running down his face.
Decades passed. The little boy didn’t become a botanist, but he was elected President of the United States. His name was Franklin Roosevelt.

Many studies have shown the learning-by-teaching effect. Students who spend time teaching what they’ve learned show better understanding and ability to remember knowledge than students who simply spend the same time re-studying. But why does teaching help
Researchers did a study to test their idea that teaching improves the teacher’s learning because it forces the teacher to find back what they’ve learned. They asked 124 students to spend ten minutes studying a text with numbers on a topic which is completely new to them. They told the students they could take notes while studying, but would teach the material afterwards without notes. After studying the text, the students were divided into four groups. In one group the students spent five minutes giving a lesson on the study material without notes. The other groups either spent the same time completing arithmetic (算术) problems, teaching with a script (讲稿) or writing down all they could remember from the text—a form of recalling practice. A week later, all the students took a surprise test of their knowledge and understanding of the text.
The important finding is that the teaching-without-notes group and the recalling-practice group performed better than the group that completed arithmetic problems and the group that taught with a script.
The researchers said the result shows that the benefits of the learning-by-teaching method are caused by recalling practice; that is, the learning-by-teaching method works only when the teaching includes recalling the taught materials.
The new findings have a practical suggestion for how the learning-by-teaching method is used in education. In order to make sure that students learn and remember an educational material, they should internalize (内化) the material before presenting it to others, rather than depend on notes during the presentation process.
28．Why does the author give a question in Paragraph 1
A．To look for readers’ answer. B．To introduce the topic.
C．To keep a sense of mystery. D．To show off his knowledge.
29．What is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A．Why the study started. B．How the study was done.
C．How many people joined in the study. D．What conclusion the researchers made.
30．What should be stressed in school education according to the author
A．Previewing-by-teaching. B．Note-taking.
C．Learning-by-teaching. D．Mind-mapping.
31．Where is the text probably from
A．A history textbook B．A newspaper. C．A guideline. D．A detective novel

After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.
Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, stand-alone rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.
Every four-square-meter room is equipped with a treadmill( 跑 步 机 ) ， an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner, and users can let down the curtains for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. There's no shower or washbasin.
Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by smartphone application, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code for use. A refundable deposit( 保证金)of 99 yuan is required，and users are charged I yuan every 5 minutes.
The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within several months since it was founded, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan, Yicai Global reports.The idea of the shared fitness experience is not entirely nascent. Last December, the Shanghai-based technology company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings.
The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident investors are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Center published a report which predicts that the total value of China's sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country's GDP.
32. What makes the shared gym room different from the common one
A. Offering open spaces. B. Standing in the living zone.
C. Holding one person at a time. D. Having some advanced equipment
33. What do people need to do to use the shared gym room
A. Use a smartphone. B. Pay 100 yuan first.
C. Let down curtains for privacy. D. Have a shower before exercise.
34. What does the underlined word "nascent" in paragraph 5 mean
A. Simple. B. Popular. C. Satisfying. D. New.
35. What is the author's purpose of writing the text
A. To introduce shared gym rooms.
B. To advertise a techno logy company.
C. To support the shared gym rooms.
D. To predict the future of shared gym rooms.

A funny thing happened to Arthur when he was on the way to work one day. As he walked along Park Avenue near the First National Bank, he heard the sound of someone trying to start a car. He tried again and again but couldn’t get the car moving. Arthur turned and looked inside at the face of a young man who looked worried. Arthur stopped and asked, “It looks like you’ve got a problem,” Arthur said.
“I’m afraid so. I’m in a big hurry and I can’t start my car.”
“Is there something I can do to help ” Arthur asked. The young man looked at the two suitcases in the back seat and then said, “Thanks. If you’re sure it wouldn’t be too much trouble, you could help me get these suitcases into a taxi.”
“No trouble at all. I’d be glad to help.”
The young man got out and took one of the suitcases from the back seat. After placing it on the ground, he turned to get the other one. Just as Arthur picked up the first suitcase and started walking, he heard the loud noise of an alarm.
It was from the bank. There had been a robbery!
Park Avenue had been quiet a moment before. Now the air was filled with the sound of the alarm and the shouts of people running from all directions. Cars stopped and the passengers joined the crowd in front of the bank. People asked each other, “What happened ”But everyone had a different answer.
Arthur, still carrying the suitcase, turned to look at the bank and walked right into the young woman in front of him.
She looked at the suitcase and then at him. Arthur was surprised. “Why is she looking at me like that ” He thought.“The suitcase! She thinks I’m the bank thief!”

One possible version:
Plant Trees to Save the Earth
Dear fellow students,
There is no doubt that trees can benefit us in many ways. Firstly, they reduce pollution and offer us clean air. Secondly, they help deal with the climate change by absorbing carbon dioxide, which can lead to global warming. Thirdly, trees help us prevent sandstorms, fight floods, and protect soil from being washed away.
Dear fellow students, the more trees we plant, the better the environment will be. It's time for us to plant some trees to make our city greener. Let's plant as many trees as possible and make our world a better place to live in.
