Liu Yaxuan is totally a homebody. Every weekend, this 14-year-old student from Tsinghua High
School watches popular TV dramas and plays with her mobile phone. She hates playing outdoor
sports.“It's too tiring,”she said.
She is not alone. In recent years, more and more Chinese teenagers are becoming homebodies. A
2013 survey of kids aged 2 to 14 showed about half of them spend less than one hour doing
outdoor activities every day.
To some extent, heavy academic pressure (学业压力) caused this situation. Hu Huilan, 12, from
Shenzhen Nanshan Language School, is busy with piles of homework and extra classes on
weekends.“I don't want to get behind,”she said.
Even if this isn't a problem, kids still prefer indoor life. Wang Yidi, 12, from Anhui No. 50 Middle
School, often reads Harry Potter, listens to music and surfs the Internet at home“. I can do so many
things I like at home rather than hang out in smoggy weather,”she said.
But this causes bad health conditions. Chinese teenagers' physical conditions have been dropping
for about 28 years, reported a newspaper last year.
The situation for teenagers should be changed. They should spend their free time outdoors even if
it just means going to the park or reading a book under the tree. Nice weather, little homework and
rich outdoor activities enable them to do that. It helps them stay energetic.
( ) 53. Homebodies are persons who _________.
A. always stay home at weekends B. don't need to go to work on weekdays
C. stay at home and never go out D. do jobs like cleaning houses or cooking meals
( ) 54. Wang Yidi's indoor life is rich when she is at home. _________ is NOT mentioned
below.
A. Reading books B. Surfing the Internet
C. Doing piles of homework D. Listening to music
( ) 55. According to the newspaper, Chinese teenagers' physical conditions have been dropping
_________.
A. from last year B. recently C. since 1995 D. since 2015
( ) 56. The underlined word “smoggy” in the passage means “_________” in Chinese.
A. 多云的 B. 雾霾的 C. 糟糕的 D. 凛冽的
{#{QQABaQ6AggioQABAAAhCUwXyCgOQkBGCAIoOAAAEIAAAwQFABAA=}#}
( ) 57. The teenagers tell us some reasons why they like to be homebodies. _________ is
NOT TRUE according to the passage.
A. Doing outdoor activities is too tiring
B. They don't have rich outdoor activities
C. Hanging out in smoggy weather is bad for their health
D. The schoolwork is heavy and they are busy with their studies
( ) 58. The passage is mainly about _________.
A. the ways to change this situation
B. the lifestyles of different countries
C. the activities Chinese teenagers do at home
D. the reasons of becoming homebodies and problems it caused
B. Choose the words or expressions to complete the passage (选择最恰当的单词或短语完成

One day Teensy went with the elephants to have lunch. They stopped in front of some trees and

At the end of the day, Teensy was with the rest of the elephants watching the ___61___. But
Teensy couldn't see very much. “Excuse me,” said Teensy politely, “I'd like to see more than
your knees, if you please.” But the elephants didn't hear little Teensy. They were too
___62___enjoying the sunset. She knew she was too little to walk away by herself, so she sat and
imagined what the sunset must look like. “Oh, I guess it is too pretty for words!” she sighed.
Teensy was very sad. “Oh, woe is me，” she said. Suddenly, Teensy heard a tiny voice. “What
is woe ” the voice said. Teensy looked down and saw a mouse. “Woe means sad,” said Teensy.
She told the mouse about seeing only elephant ___63___ instead of the sunset.
“I'm too little,” she said.
“Why You're not little at all,” said the mouse.
“Do you think so ” replied Teensy, “I'm sorry you're so small. I know how it feels.” “Don't
be sorry,” said the mouse. “I like being small! I can always fit into corners.”

D. Read the passage and answer the questions (根据短文内容回答问题) (5 分)
During the years of game making, there have been a number of games. Many old games have
gone since modern games came out.
Teachers at a primary school asked their students to write articles about games they knew and
were surprised by the results. Half of the 50 children in one of the classes wrote about online
games. It is easy to see that traditional games like hide-and-seek and jump rope games are
unfamiliar to many of today's schoolchildren. They like to play computer games, especially in the
cities, with the rising popularity of TV, the Internet, video and online games.
An educationist said, “Traditional games used to be so popular, but over just a few years, kids
have forgotten them. It's sad.”
The games that many parents once played were generally outdoor activities which were enjoyed
by students during breaks or after school. They usually needed several partners and just a little
space.
Jump rope games, for example, have always been popular in many countries around the world. A
kind of jump rope game, played with rubber bands which are connected together to make a long
rope, is played in many countries.
Rubber band jumping was once very popular in primary schools. Girls loved playing this game. It
can help kids practise their jumping skills and develop coordination (身体协调性), and also help
them meet lots of friends.
It is common these days to see primary school students spending their breaks in the classroom.
They are busy with their studies.
“When we were young, we played many different outdoor games, but today's children don't
know what to play or how to play,” a 40-year-old mother said. “They don't know what teamwork
is.”
Being worried by the situation, educational officers have tried to make some programmes to
educate children on traditional games.

Liu Yaxuan is totally a homebody. Every weekend, this 14-year-old student from Tsinghua High School watches popular TV dramas and plays with her mobile phone. She hates playing outdoor sports.“It's too tiring,”she said.
She is not alone. In recent years, more and more Chinese teenagers are becoming homebodies. A 2013 survey of kids aged 2 to 14 showed about half of them spend less than one hour doing outdoor activities every day.
To some extent, heavy academic pressure (学业压力) caused this situation. Hu Huilan, 12, from Shenzhen Nanshan Language School, is busy with piles of homework and extra classes on weekends.“I don't want to get behind,”she said.
Even if this isn't a problem, kids still prefer indoor life. Wang Yidi, 12, from Anhui No. 50 Middle School, often reads Harry Potter, listens to music and surfs the Internet at home.“I can do so many things I like at home rather than hang out in smoggy weather,”she said.
But this causes bad health conditions. Chinese teenagers' physical conditions have been dropping for about 28 years, reported a newspaper last year.
The situation for teenagers should be changed. They should spend their free time outdoors even if it just means going to the park or reading a book under the tree. Nice weather, little homework and rich outdoor activities enable them to do that. It helps them stay energetic.

She knew she was too little to walk away by herself, so she sat and imagined what the sunset must look like. “Oh, I guess it is too pretty for words!” she sighed.

D. Read the passage and answer the questions (根据短文内容回答问题) (5分)
During the years of game making, there have been a number of games. Many old games have gone since modern games came out.
Teachers at a primary school asked their students to write articles about games they knew and were surprised by the results. Half of the 50 children in one of the classes wrote about online games. It is easy to see that traditional games like hide-and-seek and jump rope games are unfamiliar to many of today's schoolchildren. They like to play computer games, especially in the cities, with the rising popularity of TV, the Internet, video and online games.
An educationist said, “Traditional games used to be so popular, but over just a few years, kids have forgotten them. It's sad.”
The games that many parents once played were generally outdoor activities which were enjoyed by students during breaks or after school. They usually needed several partners and just a little space.
Jump rope games, for example, have always been popular in many countries around the world. A kind of jump rope game, played with rubber bands which are connected together to make a long rope, is played in many countries.
Rubber band jumping was once very popular in primary schools. Girls loved playing this game. It can help kids practise their jumping skills and develop coordination (身体协调性), and also help them meet lots of friends.
It is common these days to see primary school students spending their breaks in the classroom. They are busy with their studies.
“When we were young, we played many different outdoor games, but today's children don't know what to play or how to play,” a 40-year-old mother said. “They don't know what teamwork is.”
Being worried by the situation, educational officers have tried to make some programmes to educate children on traditional games.
