You can call CJ Senter a lot of things: big brother, little brother, excellent student, and even football, baseball, and basketball player. Besides all that, CJ is also known as the Workout Kid. The 11-year-old from the Atlanta area is one of the youngest fitness (健康) instructors around. He is star of the Workout Kid DVD series. In a two-disc set released in 2011, he leads kids through different kinds of exercises to build muscle and fitness. Another DVD set of even more challenging exercises will be released this year.
“The reason I chose the exercises is that they’re really hard and sometimes they take your breath away,” CJ Senter says. “However, it’s wonderful and I want to challenge.”
CJ has had a lot of practice as a fitness expert. He’s been addicted (入迷的) to the exercise since he was 5, when his football coach told the team to get fit for a big game. Young CJ took that advice seriously. “I just like working out because it’s fun. You get fit and healthy,” he says.
CJ sticks to a routine. After school he first does his homework and then completes his hour-long workout. Only then does he spend time with his family or play outside with friends.
He hopes that the DVD series will grow so much that kids around the world will benefit from it by getting completely attracted by his passion (热情). People around the country have started taking notice of the Workout Kid. And people have started recognizing him while shopping.

From Mona Lisa in the 15th century to Marilyn Monroe in the 1950s Western artists describe beautiful women as strong with soft, pale skin. Being fat and pale was considered beautiful in the West because it was a sign of having enough food to eat and enough money to stay out of hard work in the sun.
Now, thin models and actresses are everywhere, but thinness isn’t the only symbol (标志) of beauty in the world. On the border between Burma and Thailand, women of the Kayan tribe wear metal rings around their necks from the age of five. The heavy rings push their shoulders down over time and their necks become long.
Writer Le Ly Hayslip talks about her mother’s appearance in her book When Heaven and Earth Changed Places. “The women in the Vietnamese village admired her looks because her teeth were not white and her earlobes (耳垂) were very long.” In Mauritiana, a country in West Africa, heavy women are considered beautiful because they signal (标志着) wealth in a land of drought (干旱).
The Brazilian girl in a song written in 1962 had a “guitar-shaped body”, and she was described in the song as “more than a poem, the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.” In the English version she was “tall and tan and young and lovely”.
Beauty proves to be a changeable idea. If you want to keep feeling good, you can stop at the mirror by the door and take a minute to put on one final touch — a scarf, a bright hat, a little anything that makes you feel better. After all, feeling better is more important than looking better.
8. The underlined word “pale” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to “ ”.
A. weak B. dark
C. white D. sick
9. The author takes the Kayan tribe for example in order to .
A. show us their unique way to be beautiful
B. tell them to stop damaging their health
C. call for equal rights for women
D. show us the women’s hard life
10. We can learn from the third paragraph that .
A. women in Vietnamese villages all have long earlobes
B. Le Ly Hayslip’s mother didn’t like to clean her teeth
C. When Heaven and Earth Changed Places is a book about beauty
D. Le Ly Hayslip’s mother was considered to be beautiful at that time
11. What can we infer from the text?
A. The author tells us why the ideas of beauty are different.
B. It is probably not easy to get enough food in Mauritiana.
C. In the 1960s, thin women were popular in Brazil.
D. If you want to feel good, you have to lose weight.
D
For many women inventors in years past, the invention process was twice as difficult because, in addition to the suffering of inventing, they also faced the skepticism (怀疑) of a world that didn’t believe women could create something of value. Fortunately, over the years, that opinion has been defeated by women inventors like Margaret Knight, who were willing to fight for the praise and recognition.
Born in Maine in 1838, Margaret Knight showed an interest in inventing from a very young age. After observing an accident in a factory at the age of 12, Margaret started to produce her first invention. She invented a device that would automatically (自动地) stop a machine if something got caught in it. By the time she was a teenager the invention was being used in the mills.
Later, Margaret went to work in a paper bag factory. While working in the factory, she thought how much easier it would be to pack items in paper bags if the bottoms were flat. That idea inspired her to invent the machine that would change her into a famous inventor. Margaret’s machine made the flat-bottom paper bags that are still used to this day in most grocery stores.
However, a man named Charles Annan tried to steal Margaret’s idea. Not one to give in without a fight, Margaret took Annan to court (法庭) to compete for the patent (专利) that belonged to her. While Annan argued simply that a woman could never design such a machine, Margaret showed evidence that the invention indeed belonged to her. As a result, Margaret received her patent.
Margaret didn’t stop there though; throughout her lifetime she had lots of different inventions — including a rotary engine, a shoe-cutting machine and a dress and skirt shield.
12. In Margaret’s time .
A. women inventors were not welcomed
B. women were not allowed to invent anything
C. people didn’t believe women could invent anything valuable
D. Margaret was the only woman inventor who was recognized
13. We can infer from the text that .
A. Margaret Knight’s first invention proved unsuccessful
B. Margaret Knight was injured in an accident at the age of 12
C. Margaret Knight was helped by Charles Annan in her invention of the paper bag machine
D. Margaret Knight received the patent for the invention of the paper bag machine with difficulty
14. Margaret Knight became famous for her invention of .
A. a paper bag machine B. a rotary engine
C. a shoe-cutting machine D. a dress and skirt shield
15. What would be the best title for the text?
A. How the paper bag machine was invented
B. How Margaret Knight received her first patent
C. A woman inventor — Margaret Knight
D. Paper bag machine — a big invention
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
In school and in life, the support from parents is very important for a student’s confidence and sense of achievement. 16 An understanding of these roles can help you help your children step up to the challenges of learning.
Be a cheerleader. Real learning is not based on reward, but on the value your children place on the process itself. It’s important to make something positive out of failure and to teach young learners this important skill. Ask your children what they do when they fail at something that they’re good at. 17
Be a friend. Learning about math or reading isn’t the only struggle your children face in school. 18 Sometimes what they really need is someone who is willing to hear what they’re thinking — and that someone should be you. Listening respectfully to your children’s concerns can be a major confidence booster (增强剂) all by itself.
Be a teacher. You can’t just leave it all to teachers. Sure, it’s their job, but even the best and brightest teacher cannot have enough time to meet the individual (个体的) needs of every child, especially in a crowded classroom. 19 Be available and enthusiastic. Your children need to feel that you want to be there and that helping them isn’t a chore.
Be the enforcer. Yes, sometimes you have to be tough (强硬的). 20 Enforce in advance by helping your children set and keep schedules, reach goals and complete assignments on time. Be respectful. Don’t expect your children to understand a class schedule. They won’t get it right the first time.
A. But there’s more to it than just punishment.
B. Read aloud regularly, even to older kids.
C. This will help your children become caring learners.
D. Parents play important roles in their children’s education.
E. This will help them see how important it is to keep trying.
F. Maybe they’re having problems with a teacher or a group of friends.
G. Children still need personal attention, so it’s the role of the parent to make sure they get it.

I am terribly sorry to hear that you have been ill for a few days and I hope that you will get well soon. You often stay up late at night, which is really a bad habit. Staying up has done great harm to your health and I hope that you can give up the bad habit.
