A recent study shows that young people in the UK aged between 11 and 15 spend, on average，52 hours a week in front of a screen．Dr．Aric Sigman, a researcher from the British Psychological Society，believes watching too much TV can cause health problems for children，including attention deficit disorder(注意缺失紊乱)and obesity(过度肥胖)．He said children under three shouldn’t watch TV at all. Children aged between three and seven should watch no more than 30 minutes to an hour of TV a day; 7 to 12-year-olds should be limited to an hour，and 12 to 15-year-olds should watch one and a half hours at most．
Both adults and children believe that it can be difficult to cut down on screen time．“It needs a bit of effort，but small steps can make a difference，”says Dr. Aric Sigman．He also offered some tips to change the family’s TV habits．
TVs and computers should be placed out of children's bedrooms．Watching TV before going to sleep doesn’t help children to settle . Having the TV and computer in a family room also means that parents can know what they are watching and who they are talking to online．Parents can tell children how much time they can spend watching TV or playing computer games．Parents can tell children to do something different，such as playing games or going out for a bike ride．Dr. Aric Sigman says：“We went into lots of schools and the children told us they wished their parents would take them to the park and play with them．”

A．children’s screen time should be limited
B．most childhood obesity problems are caused by bad TV watching habits

A．Children want to do more things for their parents．
B．Children want to spend more time playing with their parents．
C．Children are tired of school life．
D．Children don't like watching TV.
71．Where is this text probably from?
A. A student’s diary．B．A novel． C．A health magazine．D．A TV advertisement．

Table manners are very different in every country. For example, when you are in England you must not lift your soup plate to your mouth. This is very impolite. But when you are in Japan this is completely normal. Lifting your plate to your mouth in Japan is a traditional way of drinking your soup. And also in Japan you don’t have to worry about making a noise when you drink it. It just shows that you really like the food! But it is not the same in Britain, so you shouldn’t make a noise when eating there.
In Britain, people don’t put their hands or arms on the table during the meal. But in Mexico, guests keep their hands on the table all the time. In fact, you should watch what your hands do very carefully. In Arab countries, it is impolite when you eat with your left hand, so don’t do it!
In all the cultures it is impolite to speak when you are eating.
In Ukraine you should not start eating first; you should wait for all the others to start eating with you. You also have to say “please” and “thank you” every time you ask for and get something. If you don’t like some food, don’t make faces and don’t say: “Yuk! I hate that!”
The best way to avoid making mistakes in other countries is to watch the host and try to do as he does.
72．It is impolite to lift the soup plate to your mouth in _____.
A .Japan B. England C . Ukraine D . Mexico
73．When you are eating in Japan, making a noise means that _____.
A. you feel ill B. you dislike the food C. you like the food D. you are very hungry

C. Speaking when you’re eating is impolite just in some cultures.
D. In Ukraine, it’s a tradition that the guest eats first.

第II卷（非选择题? 共35分）
第一节? 任务型读写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）
阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
Although most of us have been learning English for more than three years or even more, we still doubt whether every one of us has already known how to learn English well.
Some students still think that learning English is just to remember new words, phrases, grammar rules and some sentence structures. It seems if we do so, we can have a good knowledge of English. We must make sure that things are not always what they seem to be.
Now imagine how we learn our mother tongue well. We learn it well by communicating with the people around us all day long. So we think it’s not difficult for us to learn our mother tongue.
Why do we think it is hard to learn English well? We all know that learning English usually takes place in schools and there are few opportunities to communicate with other speakers of the language. As a result, some think that learning English is slow and much difficult. It’s because we spend less time learning and practicing it than doing our mother tongue.
The following may help us in some way.
1. We should gain confidence and we must be brave enough to speak English before others. Don’t be afraid of losing our faces while talking with others in English.
2. We must make a long and careful study plan. Once we do it, we must take pains to continue learning English every day.
3. Think about what we have done and decide to study English harder than ever.
4. Finally we should take every opportunity to practice speaking English as often as possible.
Title: How to Learn English Well
The present situation
Although we have learned English for several years, not all of us 76 how to learn English well.
The 77 for being hard to learn English well
Just keeping in 78 new words, phrases, grammar rules and sentence structures.
Students 79 communicate with other English speakers in English.
Less time is 80 in learning and practicing English.
81 on learning English well
Be confident and 82 while speaking English in public..
83 plan your study and stick to it for a long time.
Know your doings and make a 84 to study English harder.
Take every opportunity to practice your 85 English very often.

One Possible Version:
Instead of going to physical stores, more and more people choose to go shopping online. Actually, online shopping plays an essential role in our daily life owing to much convenience it brings us. Furthermore, not only can it save money, but it also offers lots of stores and goods at the same time, which provides additional ordering options and convenience.
As each coin has two sides, online shopping isn’t an exception. To begin with, we often receive the shirt with wrong size, because we can’t try it by ourselves. Next, due to the low price online, we are likely to lose control and buy many useless things. What’s worse, there are many swindlers who cheat us by opening a fake online store.
In conclusion, as a new booming thing, online shopping does have some benefits, but its potential dangers cannot be ignored. Only when we work together can online shopping have a better future

A recent study shows that young people in the UK aged between 11 and 15 spend, on average，52 hours a week in front of a screen．Dr．Aric Sigman, a researcher from the British Psychological Society，believes watching too much TV can cause health problems for children，including attention deficit disorder(注意缺失紊乱)and obesity(过度肥胖)．He said children under three shouldn’t watch TV at all. Children aged between three and seven should watch no more than 30 minutes to an hour of TV a day; 7 to 12-year-olds should be limited to an hour，and 12 to 15-year-olds should watch one and a half hours at most．
Both adults and children believe that it can be difficult to cut down on screen time．“It needs a bit of effort，but small steps can make a difference，”says Dr. Aric Sigman．He also offered some tips to change the family’s TV habits．
TVs and computers should be placed out of children's bedrooms．Watching TV before going to sleep doesn’t help children to settle . Having the TV and computer in a family room also means that parents can know what they are watching and who they are talking to online．Parents can tell children how much time they can spend watching TV or playing computer games．Parents can tell children to do something different，such as playing games or going out for a bike ride．Dr. Aric Sigman says：“We went into lots of schools and the children told us they wished their parents would take them to the park and play with them．”

Table manners are very different in every country. For example, when you are in England you must not lift your soup plate to your mouth. This is very impolite. But when you are in Japan this is completely normal. Lifting your plate to your mouth in Japan is a traditional way of drinking your soup. And also in Japan you don’t have to worry about making a noise when you drink it. It just shows that you really like the food! But it is not the same in Britain, so you shouldn’t make a noise when eating there.
In Britain, people don’t put their hands or arms on the table during the meal. But in Mexico, guests keep their hands on the table all the time. In fact, you should watch what your hands do very carefully. In Arab countries, it is impolite when you eat with your left hand, so don’t do it!
In all the cultures it is impolite to speak when you are eating.
In Ukraine you should not start eating first; you should wait for all the others to start eating with you. You also have to say “please” and “thank you” every time you ask for and get something. If you don’t like some food, don’t make faces and don’t say: “Yuk! I hate that!”
The best way to avoid making mistakes in other countries is to watch the host and try to do as he does.
72．It is impolite to lift the soup plate to your mouth in _____.

Although most of us have been learning English for more than three years or even more, we still doubt whether every one of us has already known how to learn English well.
Some students still think that learning English is just to remember new words, phrases, grammar rules and some sentence structures. It seems if we do so, we can have a good knowledge of English. We must make sure that things are not always what they seem to be.
Now imagine how we learn our mother tongue well. We learn it well by communicating with the people around us all day long. So we think it’s not difficult for us to learn our mother tongue.
Why do we think it is hard to learn English well? We all know that learning English usually takes place in schools and there are few opportunities to communicate with other speakers of the language. As a result, some think that learning English is slow and much difficult. It’s because we spend less time learning and practicing it than doing our mother tongue.
The following may help us in some way.
1. We should gain confidence and we must be brave enough to speak English before others. Don’t be afraid of losing our faces while talking with others in English.
2. We must make a long and careful study plan. Once we do it, we must take pains to continue learning English every day.
3. Think about what we have done and decide to study English harder than ever.
4. Finally we should take every opportunity to practice speaking English as often as possible.

One Possible Version:
Instead of going to physical stores, more and more people choose to go shopping online. Actually, online shopping plays an essential role in our daily life owing to much convenience it brings us. Furthermore, not only can it save money, but it also offers lots of stores and goods at the same time, which provides additional ordering options and convenience.
As each coin has two sides, online shopping isn’t an exception. To begin with, we often receive the shirt with wrong size, because we can’t try it by ourselves. Next, due to the low price online, we are likely to lose control and buy many useless things. What’s worse, there are many swindlers who cheat us by opening a fake online store.
In conclusion, as a new booming thing, online shopping does have some benefits, but its potential dangers cannot be ignored. Only when we work together can online shopping have a better future
