I have tried to write a ghost story that won’t make you unhappy with yourselves, with each other, with seasons, or with me. I hope it haunts your houses pleasantly.
Charles Dickens
One Christmas Eve, old Scrooge and Bob were working busily in his office. It was a cold, foggy day. The fog was so thick that the houses opposite were like ghosts. It was only three o’clock in the afternoon, but it was already quite dark.
“Merry Christmas, Uncle! God bless you!” cried a happy voice. It was Scrooge’s nephew (侄子).
“Bah!” said Scrooge. “Humbug (骗人的话)! ”
“Christmas is a humbug! Surely you don’t mean that, uncle.” said his nephew.
“I do.” said Scrooge “Merry Christmas! What reason have you got to be merry You are poor.”
“OK, then,” replied the nephew cheerfully. “What reason have you got to be sad You are rich. Don’t be angry, Uncle!” said his nephew.
“What else can I be ” answered the uncle. “I live in a world of fools! Merry Christmas! What’s Christmas time to you It’s a time for paying bills without money. It’s time for finding yourself a year older, but not richer. Everyone who goes around saying “Merry Christmas” should have his tongue cut out. Yes, he should!”
“Uncle! Please don’t say that!” said the nephew. “I’ve always thought of Christmas time as a good time, a kind, and a charitable happy time. And so, Uncle Christmas has never put any gold or silver in my pocket, but I think it has done me good. And it will do me good. And I say, God bless it!”
Bob, standing in the corner of the room, applauded (鼓掌). He realized his mistake very soon, and went quickly back to his work, but Scrooge had heard him.
“One more sound from you. Bob Cratchit,” said Scrooge, “and you’ll celebrate Christmas by losing your job!”
“Don’t be angry with him, e and have dinner with us tomorrow.”
“No.” said Scrooge.
“I’m sorry you don’t want to cerebrate Christmas. But I do. So a Merry Christmas, Uncle!”
“Good afternoon!” said Scrooge.
“And happy New Year!” said his nephew.
“Good afternoon!” said Scrooge again.

One evening after dinner, Mr. and Mrs. Tisich called a family meeting. “We’ve had to make a difficult decision,” Mr. Tisich announced. “You see, your mother has been offered a post as co-director of a television station in Chicago. Unfortunately, the station is not here. After thinking long and hard about it, we’ve concluded that the right decision is to move to Chicago. ”
Marc looked shocked, while his sister Rachel breathlessly started asking when they’d be moving. “It’s surprising, but exciting!” she said. Marc simply said, “We can’t go—I can’t leave all my friends. I’d rather stay here and live with Tommy Lyons!”
The Tisichs hoped that by the time they moved in August, Marc would grow more used to the idea of leaving. However, he showed no signs of accepting the news, refusing to pack his belongings.
When the morning of the move arrived, Marc was nowhere to be found. His parents called Tommy Lyon’s house, but Mrs. Lyons said she hadn’t seen Marc. Mrs. Tisich became increasingly concerned, while her husband felt angry with their son for behaving so irresponsibly.
What they didn’t know was that Marc had started walking over to Tommy’s house, with a faint idea of hiding in Lyons’s attic(阁楼) for a few days. But something happened on the way as Marc walked past all the familiar landscape of the neighborhood: the fence that he and his mother painted, the tree that he and his sister used to climb, the park where he and his father often took evening walks together. How much would these mean without his family, who make them special in the first place Marc didn’t take the tim to answer that question but instead hurried back to his house, wondering if there were any moving cartons(纸板箱)the right size to hold his record collection.

A green classroom used to be a classroom whose walls were green. But today’s green classrooms are “greener” than that! New “green” classrooms help schools save money and provide clean environment where students learn better.
Many classrooms are going green by adding solar panels (太阳能电池板) to their roofs. The solar panels collect energy from the sun and use it to power lights and computers.
The panels help create at least as much electricity (电力) as the classrooms use. They can also cut down the cost of energy.
Many new “green” classrooms are built by using recycled things. Green schools have other new ideas. Some classrooms are painted with special paint that helps improve indoor air quality (质量). Some use windows that help keep classrooms warm in cold weather and let in lots of natural daylight. Others no longer use glue that adds chemical (化学的) smells to the air.
Experts (专家) say that green classrooms are good for education. Studies show that the environment with good air can cut colds and flu by more than 50 percent. That means fewer sick days for students and teachers. Studies have also shown that natural light and other green features (特点) improve students’ learning and marks in tests, too.
11．Solar panels can do the following things EXCEPT ________.
A．cutting down the cost of energy B．keeping the classroom cool
C．collecting energy from the sun D．helping create electricity
12．What can be used to make the air in the classrooms better
A．Glue. B．Windows. C．Recycled things. D．Special paint.
13．Which of the following is the advantage (优点) of the green classrooms
A．The natural light makes air fresh.
B．They can produce natural daylight.
C．They can make students have fewer sick days.
D．They can help students get full marks in tests.
14．What’s the best title for this passage
A．Classrooms Are Going Green B．Green Classrooms in the Future
C．How to Use Green Classrooms D．How to Improve Students’ Marks
Once upon a time, there lived a girl in ancient China named Mulan. Her father was too old and weak to fight, but not too old to teach her how to ride a horse and use a sword. Girls usually did not learn these skills at that time, but Mulan’s father believed everyone should know how to fight, even girls.
One day, the government officials sent soldiers to Mulan’s village. Because the war was coming, men were needed for the army. The military leader of the group posted a list of names on the village’s wall. Each name represented one volunteer, one man from each family.
Mulan saw her father’s name on the list. She knew her father would never return alive if he was there. Mulan’s brother was a young child. There was only Mulan who could take her father’s place. But the military did not take girls as replacements for fighting men.
Quietly, the next morning, before her father could report for duty, Mulan stole his armor (盔甲). She acted herself as a man. She reported for duty. The soldiers accepted “him” in her father’s place. Mulan was very careful over the years. No one ever knew that she was a girl. When the war was over, Mulan received a special award from the emperor himself for her great courage.

Mulan dressed herself once again in the clothes of a woman. That evening, Mulan and her family got together to watch the sunset.
Two of the men who had served with Mulan stopped by her home on their way home. When Mulan came to greet them, they could not believe their eyes. One shouted,“You are not Mulan! Are you Mulan ” After recounting many memories, they finally believed that Mulan was a woman who had fought by their side in the war. They spread Mulan’s story across China.

Trees are one of the oldest “citizens” of our Earth. They keep our air clean, reduce noise pollution, improve water quality and provide food and building materials.
Just like us, trees change a lot as they grow. At 1 to 3 years old, young trees learn how to protect themselves. For example, many trees grow thorns (刺) to warn animals not to go near. Most young trees have large, deep green leaves so that they can catch enough sunlight and change it into their food and energy.
When trees are 4 years old, they begin to grow very rapidly and become strong enough to face challenges later in life. At the age of 15, trees become young adults. They grow more slowly and begin to produce flowers and fruit. It is not until the tree is 20 to 25 years old that it becomes a real adult. The tree reaches its largest size. The adult tree gives us shade, oxygen and natural beauty; it is also a great place for a tree house, or a place for us to read a book, listen to music and so on. If we give the adult tree proper care, it will go on to live healthily for many years.
Gradually, trees begin to grow older and older and even die. At this time, they still have their important place in nature. When a tree becomes hollow or part of it becomes dead, it provides a home for small animals and is a source of food for many other animals.
In many ways, the life of a tree is similar to our own life experience. When we are looking at the life of a tree, we learn about that each period of life brings its own form of joy and challenge. Life is hard but the value of life is how you live it bravely. A man who overcomes himself is a real strong man in life. Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
Enjoy every minute of the life of the trees as well as ours!
21．What does the writer want to tell us in paragraph 3
A．When trees are four years old, they are just like little weak children.
B．At the age of 15, trees grow rapidly and become a real adult.
C．Trees are very useful but they can only live to 25 years at most.
D．Trees are natural treasures and are well worth protecting.
22．What does the underlined word “hollow” probably mean
A．枯死的 B．空心的 C．腐烂的 D．脆弱的
23．Why should we enjoy every minute of our own life according to the passage？
A．Because just like trees, we change a lot as we grow.
B．Because trees devote all their lifetime to satisfying people and protecting the Earth.
C．Because life is meaningful though there are challenges in different periods of life.
D．Because life is becoming better and better with so many beautiful and useful trees.
The reviews below are about the film The Silver Glove.
Angela Moore
I just love this fast—moving pirate (海盗)film. The story moves at a high speed from one frightening (令人惊悚的) fight scene (场景) to the next. You really feel as if you are on the ships with these pirates. The main pirate is given all the best and most humorous lines. The film has laughs as well as frightening moments.
Max Court
I enjoyed this film very much. The film is directed with great skills and invention by German Dieter Muller. There are a lot of surprises in the story to keep us guessing until the last minute. Some clever jokes give the film a surprising level of humor too, which I really didn’t expect from a film about pirates.
Deborah MeGhee
The Silver Glove promises much but shows very little. The opening scene, filmed in a storm of lightning and high waves, is an exciting start. But as the film takes you from one fight to another, it starts to seem boring. Actress Patricia Groves plays the doctor wonderfully.
Maria Thomson
After all the money that has been spent on this pirate film, you would expect more than this boring movie. The fight scenes are so repetitive (重复的)that you may think you’ve seen the film before. Most of the camera work is inventive.
24．What common idea do Angela Moore and Max Court share ________
A．The film is humorous.
B．The film is frightening.
C．The film encourages them.
D．The film keeps them guessing.
25．Who thinks highly of the actress playing the doctor in the film ________

Goldfish have long been a popular family pet. However, there is a growing problem associated with these lovely fish.
Many people are buying goldfish home, while many people are setting goldfish free. One survey of people in Texas found that nearly 60% fish owners put their fish into lakes.
Goldfish can grow very large. As a result, the number grows quite quickly, and there is not enough food for the rest of the fish in the lake. Such is the case in West Medical Lake.
The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife says that it can cost up to ＄150,000 to take away the foreign species（物种）from the lake. It’s such a serious problem that they are considering making setting goldfish free into the wild a crime（犯罪）and prosecuting（起诉）those responsible（有责任的）.
“If they get caught doing that and get prosecuted, they could have to pay for solving the problem they created,” said Randy Osborne, a fish biologist from the department.
So what should you do if you no longer want your pet fish Well, if you can’t find a willing friend or family member to help care for them, call your local pet shop or animal shelter. You might also join a goldfish club in your town or on Face book, if your fish are ill, do not put these sick fish into the wild or throw them into your toilet. “A sick fish can introduce harmful things like the disease into water,” wrote Pet Helpful, a website sharing knowledge on pets. “Keeping our waterways clean and safe is important for future generations（代）.”
27．The underlined words “associated with” in Paragraph 1 have the same meaning with “________”.
A．suitable for
B．filled with
C．harmful to
D．connected with
28．What was one result of putting goldfish into West Medical Lake ________
A．They caused the lake to get dirtier.
B．There were fewer other fish in the lake.
C．They introduced other species to the lake.
D．Much money was wasted on protecting them.
29．What action may the government take to stop people from freeing goldfish into the wild ________
A．Punishing those who do it.
B．Raising money to save freed goldfish.
C．Beating the people who do it.
D．Advising people to buy fewer goldfish.
30．What is the Paragraph 6 mainly about ________
A．The types of unwanted pet fish.
B．Where unwanted pet fish have gone.
C．How to deal with unwanted pet fish.
D．The importance of saving unwanted pet fish.
31．What’s the best title of the passage ________
A．Water pollution.
B．Wildlife problem.
C．Unwanted pet fish.
D．Goldfish’s number.
How do you feel about nature After spending hours indoors, do you feel better when you visit your local park Most people think that nature is good for our bodies and brains. However. humans are spending more time inside and less time outside. For example, the number of visitors to Canada’s national parks is getting lower every year. And in countries such as the USA, only 10 of teenagers spend time outside every day. Many doctors feel that this is a problem in the twenty-first century.
As a result, some doctors are studying the connection between nature and health: one example of this is the work of Dr. Matilda in Sweden. The doctor gave people a maths test. During the test, their heart rate (心率), were fast. After the test, one group of people sat in a 3D-virtual-reality (虚拟现实) room for fifteen minutes with pictures and sounds of nature. Their heart rates were slower than people’s in the other group.
The virtual touch with nature helped them feel more relaxed. Another good example of how nature is good for health comes from Canada. In Toronto, researchers studied 31,000 people living in the city. In general, they found that healthier people lived near parks.
Because of studies like these, some countries and cities want nature to be part of people’s everyday life. In Dubai (迪拜), for example, there are plans for a new shopping mall with a large garden, so shoppers can relax outside with trees, plants and water. In Switzerland, “forest schools” are popular. Schoolchildren study their subjects in the forests and do lots of exercise outside. And South Korea (韩国) is another good example: it has new forests near its cities and around 13 million people visit these forests every year. So after building cities for so long, perhaps it’s now time to start rebuilding nature.
32．What does Paragraph One mainly talk about
A．Feeling about nature. B．How much time we spend outdoors.
C．Visiting your local park. D．Teenagers’ problem in the 21st century.
33．Match the countries or cities with the information and choose the right answer.
① the USA ②Dubai ③ Switzerland ④South Korea
a. Children study in the forests and do lots of activities outside.
b. About 13 million people visit new forests near its cities every year.
c. A new shopping mall with a large garden will be built.
d. 10% of teenagers spend time outside every day.
A．①-a ②-d ③-b ④-c B．①-d ②-c ③-a ④-b
C．①-a ②-c ③-d ④-b D．①-d ②-c ③-b ④-a
34．What do the results of the studies show
A．More and more Canadians will live near parks.
B．The maths test is difficult and makes people nervous.
C．Nature can help people feel more relaxed and be healthier.
D．People’s heart rates get slower in a 3D-virtual-reality room.
35．What can we infer from the last sentence of the passage
A．Nature is more important than cities. B．People have lived in the cities for so long.
C．Country life is healthier than city life. D．Nature should be part of people’s daily life.

Argentina in the late nineteenth century was an exciting place. Around 1870, it was experiencing an economic boom (经济繁荣), and the capital Buenos Aires, attracted many people. Farmers, as well as many foreigners from Spain and Italy, came to Buenos Aires looking for jobs. These jobs didn’t pay well, and the people felt lonely with their new life in the city. As the unhappy newcomers mixed together in the poor parts of the city, the dance known as the tango came into being.
At the beginning, the tango was a dance of the lower classes (阶级). It was danced in the bars and streets. At that time women were fewer than men, so if a man didn’t want to be left out, his only choice was to dance with another man so that he could attract the attention of the women. Gradually, the dance spread into the upper classes of Argentinean society and became more respectable.
In Europe at this time, strong interest in dance from around the world was beginning. The interest in international dance was especially strong in Paris. Every kind of dance from ballet to belly dancing could be found in Paris theaters. After tango dances from Argentina arrived in Europe, they began to draw the interest of the public as they performed their exciting dance in cafes. Though not everyone liked the new dance, the dance did find enough supporters to make it popular.
The popularity of the tango continued to grow in many other parts of the world. Soldiers who returned to the United States from World War I brought the tango to North America. I reached Japan in 1926, and in 2003 a tango dancer of South Korea was hired to act as a kind of dance ambassador (大使) and push for tango dancing throughout South Korea.
40．According to the article, the tango dances came from ________ in the beginning.
A．belly dancers B．American soldiers C．a Spanish Style D．the capital of Argentina
41．If a man didn’t want to be left out in the tango dancing, he had to ________.
A．dance in the bars or streets B．dance with another man
C．look for jobs in Argentina D．perform dances in cafes
42．What can we know from paragraph 3
A．People in Europe didn’t have much interest in dancing.
B．Both ballet and tango can be found in Paris theatres.
C．Ballet dancing was very popular in Paris at that time.
D．Everyone liked tango dancing when it came to Europe.
43．Which of the following can be the best title for the article
A．How to Dance the Tango B．The History of the Tango
C．How to Improve Tango Skills D．The Modern Tango Boom
During my first year of high school, I was a skinny (干瘦的) boy who weighed just 55 kg. I dreamed of being a football star. I played a little bit, but spent most of my time on the bench.
Over the summer, I found a special diet that bodybuilders use to bulk up. Drinking a lot of whole milk and lifting weights every day added an extra 11 kg of muscle (肌肉).
By the time football season started, I felt ready. I was soon disappointed, though, when I saw that I was still smaller and slower than most of the other boys. I found myself on the bench again.
That was to change during one of our first games of the season. We had built up a lead and the coach felt secure (放心的) enough to send me in for a while to play halfback (前卫). I was so excited.
On the very first play, I met with challenges. When the quarterback (四分卫) handed the ball off to me, I thought it was my time to show off. However, I was soon hit by three of the other team’s players. They tackled (擒抱并摔倒) me hard to the ground. I got up and walked off the field, back to the bench.
Over the years. I have lost count of how many times I have dreamed of achieving something, only to find that the world had other plans. I hated this for a long time. It was not until I became a football commentator (评论员) that I finally realized that maybe the world’s plans for me are better than my own.
44．What does the underlined phrase “bulk up” mean
A．Go on a diet (节食). B．Lose weight. C．Gain muscle. D．Keep one’s balance.
45．Why did the coach allow the author to play halfback
A．Because one of the players got hurt. B．Because they were likely (可能的) to win the game.
C．Because it was not an important position. D．Because the coach believed in the author.
46．From the story, we can infer that the author ________.
A．hates the way he looks B．is not good at making plans
C．feels glad to have a new dream D．has never succeeded at anything

The Silver Glove promises much but shows very little. The opening scene, filmed in a storm of lightning and high waves, is an exciting start. But as the film takes you from one fight to another, it starts to seem boring. Actress Patricia Groves plays the doctor wonderfully.
Maria Thomson
After all the money that has been spent on this pirate film, you would expect more than this boring movie. The fight scenes are so repetitive（重复的）that you may think you’ve seen the film before. Most of the camera work is inventive, though. The ship chase creates a lot of excitement while the rest of the film fails to do.

I have tried to write a ghost story that won’t make you unhappy with yourselves, with each other, with seasons, or with me. I hope it haunts your houses pleasantly.

“Merry Christmas, Uncle! God bless you!” cried a happy voice. It was Scrooge’s nephew (侄子).
“Bah!” said Scrooge. “Humbug (骗人的话)! ”
“Christmas is a humbug! Surely you don’t mean that, uncle.” said his nephew.
“I do.” said Scrooge “Merry Christmas! What reason have you got to be merry You are poor.”
“OK, then,” replied the nephew cheerfully. “What reason have you got to be sad You are rich. Don’t be angry, Uncle!” said his nephew.
“What else can I be ” answered the uncle. “I live in a world of fools! Merry Christmas! What’s Christmas time to you It’s a time for paying bills without money. It’s time for finding yourself a year older, but not richer. Everyone who goes around saying “Merry Christmas” should have his tongue cut out. Yes, he should!”
“Uncle! Please don’t say that!” said the nephew. “I’ve always thought of Christmas time as a good time, a kind, and a charitable happy time. And so, Uncle Christmas has never put any gold or silver in my pocket, but I think it has done me good. And it will do me good. And I say, God bless it!”

Unfortunately, the station is not here. After thinking long and hard about it, we’ve concluded that the right decision is to move to Chicago. ”

A green classroom used to be a classroom whose walls were green. But today’s green classrooms are “greener” than that! New “green” classrooms help schools save money and provide clean environment where students learn better.
Many classrooms are going green by adding solar panels (太阳能电池板) to their roofs. The solar panels collect energy from the sun and use it to power lights and computers.
The panels help create at least as much electricity (电力) as the classrooms use. They can also cut down the cost of energy.
Many new “green” classrooms are built by using recycled things. Green schools have other new ideas. Some classrooms are painted with special paint that helps improve indoor air quality (质量). Some use windows that help keep classrooms warm in cold weather and let in lots of natural daylight. Others no longer use glue that adds chemical (化学的) smells to the air.
Experts (专家) say that green classrooms are good for education. Studies show that the environment with good air can cut colds and flu by more than 50 percent. That means fewer sick days for students and teachers. Studies have also shown that natural light and other green features (特点) improve students’ learning and marks in tests, too.
11．Solar panels can do the following things EXCEPT ________.
A．cutting down the cost of energy B．keeping the classroom cool
C．collecting energy from the sun D．helping create electricity

B．They can produce natural daylight.
C．They can make students have fewer sick days.
D．They can help students get full marks in tests.

Trees are one of the oldest “citizens” of our Earth. They keep our air clean, reduce noise pollution, improve water quality and provide food and building materials.
Just like us, trees change a lot as they grow. At 1 to 3 years old, young trees learn how to protect themselves. For example, many trees grow thorns (刺) to warn animals not to go near. Most young trees have large, deep green leaves so that they can catch enough sunlight and change it into their food and energy.
When trees are 4 years old, they begin to grow very rapidly and become strong enough to face challenges later in life. At the age of 15, trees become young adults. They grow more slowly and begin to produce flowers and fruit. It is not until the tree is 20 to 25 years old that it becomes a real adult. The tree reaches its largest size. The adult tree gives us shade, oxygen and natural beauty; it is also a great place for a tree house, or a place for us to read a book, listen to music and so on. If we give the adult tree proper care, it will go on to live healthily for many years.
Gradually, trees begin to grow older and older and even die. At this time, they still have their important place in nature. When a tree becomes hollow or part of it becomes dead, it provides a home for small animals and is a source of food for many other animals.
In many ways, the life of a tree is similar to our own life experience. When we are looking at the life of a tree, we learn about that each period of life brings its own form of joy and challenge. Life is hard but the value of life is how you live it bravely. A man who overcomes himself is a real strong man in life. Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
Enjoy every minute of the life of the trees as well as ours!

The reviews below are about the film The Silver Glove.
Angela Moore
I just love this fast—moving pirate (海盗)film. The story moves at a high speed from one frightening (令人惊悚的) fight scene (场景) to the next. You really feel as if you are on the ships with these pirates. The main pirate is given all the best and most humorous lines. The film has laughs as well as frightening moments.
Max Court
I enjoyed this film very much. The film is directed with great skills and invention by German Dieter Muller. There are a lot of surprises in the story to keep us guessing until the last minute. Some clever jokes give the film a surprising level of humor too, which I really didn’t expect from a film about pirates.
Deborah MeGhee
The Silver Glove promises much but shows very little. The opening scene, filmed in a storm of lightning and high waves, is an exciting start. But as the film takes you from one fight to another, it starts to seem boring. Actress Patricia Groves plays the doctor wonderfully.
Maria Thomson
After all the money that has been spent on this pirate film, you would expect more than this boring movie. The fight scenes are so repetitive (重复的)that you may think you’ve seen the film before. Most of the camera work is inventive.

Goldfish have long been a popular family pet. However, there is a growing problem associated with these lovely fish.
Many people are buying goldfish home, while many people are setting goldfish free. One survey of people in Texas found that nearly 60% fish owners put their fish into lakes.
Goldfish can grow very large. As a result, the number grows quite quickly, and there is not enough food for the rest of the fish in the lake. Such is the case in West Medical Lake.
The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife says that it can cost up to ＄150,000 to take away the foreign species（物种）from the lake. It’s such a serious problem that they are considering making setting goldfish free into the wild a crime（犯罪）and prosecuting（起诉）those responsible（有责任的）.
“If they get caught doing that and get prosecuted, they could have to pay for solving the problem they created,” said Randy Osborne, a fish biologist from the department.
So what should you do if you no longer want your pet fish Well, if you can’t find a willing friend or family member to help care for them, call your local pet shop or animal shelter. You might also join a goldfish club in your town or on Face book, if your fish are ill, do not put these sick fish into the wild or throw them into your toilet. “A sick fish can introduce harmful things like the disease into water,” wrote Pet Helpful, a website sharing knowledge on pets. “Keeping our waterways clean and safe is important for future generations（代）.”
27．The underlined words “associated with” in Paragraph 1 have the same meaning with “________”.
A．suitable for
B．filled with
C．harmful to
D．connected with
28．What was one result of putting goldfish into West Medical Lake ________
A．They caused the lake to get dirtier.
B．There were fewer other fish in the lake.
C．They introduced other species to the lake.
D．Much money was wasted on protecting them.
29．What action may the government take to stop people from freeing goldfish into the wild ________
A．Punishing those who do it.
B．Raising money to save freed goldfish.
C．Beating the people who do it.
D．Advising people to buy fewer goldfish.
30．What is the Paragraph 6 mainly about ________
A．The types of unwanted pet fish.
B．Where unwanted pet fish have gone.
C．How to deal with unwanted pet fish.
D．The importance of saving unwanted pet fish.
31．What’s the best title of the passage ________

How do you feel about nature After spending hours indoors, do you feel better when you visit your local park Most people think that nature is good for our bodies and brains. However. humans are spending more time inside and less time outside. For example, the number of visitors to Canada’s national parks is getting lower every year. And in countries such as the USA, only 10 of teenagers spend time outside every day. Many doctors feel that this is a problem in the twenty-first century.
As a result, some doctors are studying the connection between nature and health: one example of this is the work of Dr. Matilda in Sweden. The doctor gave people a maths test. During the test, their heart rate (心率), were fast. After the test, one group of people sat in a 3D-virtual-reality (虚拟现实) room for fifteen minutes with pictures and sounds of nature. Their heart rates were slower than people’s in the other group.
The virtual touch with nature helped them feel more relaxed. Another good example of how nature is good for health comes from Canada. In Toronto, researchers studied 31,000 people living in the city. In general, they found that healthier people lived near parks.
Because of studies like these, some countries and cities want nature to be part of people’s everyday life. In Dubai (迪拜), for example, there are plans for a new shopping mall with a large garden, so shoppers can relax outside with trees, plants and water. In Switzerland, “forest schools” are popular. Schoolchildren study their subjects in the forests and do lots of exercise outside. And South Korea (韩国) is another good example: it has new forests near its cities and around 13 million people visit these forests every year. So after building cities for so long, perhaps it’s now time to start rebuilding nature.
32．What does Paragraph One mainly talk about
A．Feeling about nature. B．How much time we spend outdoors.
C．Visiting your local park. D．Teenagers’ problem in the 21st century.
33．Match the countries or cities with the information and choose the right answer.

Argentina in the late nineteenth century was an exciting place. Around 1870, it was experiencing an economic boom (经济繁荣), and the capital Buenos Aires, attracted many people. Farmers, as well as many foreigners from Spain and Italy, came to Buenos Aires looking for jobs. These jobs didn’t pay well, and the people felt lonely with their new life in the city. As the unhappy newcomers mixed together in the poor parts of the city, the dance known as the tango came into being.
At the beginning, the tango was a dance of the lower classes (阶级). It was danced in the bars and streets. At that time women were fewer than men, so if a man didn’t want to be left out, his only choice was to dance with another man so that he could attract the attention of the women. Gradually, the dance spread into the upper classes of Argentinean society and became more respectable.
In Europe at this time, strong interest in dance from around the world was beginning. The interest in international dance was especially strong in Paris. Every kind of dance from ballet to belly dancing could be found in Paris theaters. After tango dances from Argentina arrived in Europe, they began to draw the interest of the public as they performed their exciting dance in cafes. Though not everyone liked the new dance, the dance did find enough supporters to make it popular.
The popularity of the tango continued to grow in many other parts of the world. Soldiers who returned to the United States from World War I brought the tango to North America. I reached Japan in 1926, and in 2003 a tango dancer of South Korea was hired to act as a kind of dance ambassador (大使) and push for tango dancing throughout South Korea.
40．According to the article, the tango dances came from ________ in the beginning.
A．belly dancers B．American soldiers C．a Spanish Style D．the capital of Argentina
41．If a man didn’t want to be left out in the tango dancing, he had to ________.
A．dance in the bars or streets B．dance with another man
C．look for jobs in Argentina D．perform dances in cafes
42．What can we know from paragraph 3
A．People in Europe didn’t have much interest in dancing.
B．Both ballet and tango can be found in Paris theatres.
C．Ballet dancing was very popular in Paris at that time.
D．Everyone liked tango dancing when it came to Europe.

During my first year of high school, I was a skinny (干瘦的) boy who weighed just 55 kg. I dreamed of being a football star. I played a little bit, but spent most of my time on the bench.
Over the summer, I found a special diet that bodybuilders use to bulk up. Drinking a lot of whole milk and lifting weights every day added an extra 11 kg of muscle (肌肉).
By the time football season started, I felt ready. I was soon disappointed, though, when I saw that I was still smaller and slower than most of the other boys. I found myself on the bench again.
That was to change during one of our first games of the season. We had built up a lead and the coach felt secure (放心的) enough to send me in for a while to play halfback (前卫). I was so excited.
On the very first play, I met with challenges. When the quarterback (四分卫) handed the ball off to me, I thought it was my time to show off. However, I was soon hit by three of the other team’s players. They tackled (擒抱并摔倒) me hard to the ground. I got up and walked off the field, back to the bench.
Over the years. I have lost count of how many times I have dreamed of achieving something, only to find that the world had other plans. I hated this for a long time. It was not until I became a football commentator (评论员) that I finally realized that maybe the world’s plans for me are better than my own.
44．What does the underlined phrase “bulk up” mean
A．Go on a diet (节食). B．Lose weight. C．Gain muscle. D．Keep one’s balance.
45．Why did the coach allow the author to play halfback
A．Because one of the players got hurt. B．Because they were likely (可能的) to win the game.
C．Because it was not an important position. D．Because the coach believed in the author.
46．From the story, we can infer that the author ________.
A．hates the way he looks B．is not good at making plans
C．feels glad to have a new dream D．has never succeeded at anything
