Hobbies are something we enjoy doing in our free time for fun. It is often the case that we first become interested in something, and then we practise it ourselves. When we often do it or practise it for fun, it becomes our hobby.
Almost everyone has some kind of hobby. The choice of hobbies is different from person to person. It depends on one’s own interests and jobs. People who sit at a desk all day long like to develop active hobbies while people like sports players like to take up quiet hobbies. Everyone should do something for a change so as to keep a balance between work and play.
People can choose hobbies that are very popular and easy to develop, such as watching TV, reading, window-shopping, going to the movies and so on. These hobbies need no special training. They can also choose hobbies that are not so easy to develop, such as painting, playing musical instruments, taking part in sports, etc. These hobbies need special training and talents.
Most people take up one hobby or another for relaxation while others, such as old people, have hobbies for killing time. However, students have to study. They have to finish a lot of homework, to take many exams and to fight for their future. But as the saying goes, “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” Students need hobbies to refresh themselves in order to have better performances in their studies.
4. Which of the following people will be most likely to take up active hobbies according to the article
A. A football player. B. A fireman. C. A swimming coach. D. A history teacher.
5. What hobbies are not so easy to develop
A. Window-shopping and reading. B. Painting and playing musical instruments.
C. Watching TV and taking part in sports. D. Going to the movies and singing.
6. What can we learn from the article
A. Students need hobbies to balance work and play.
B. Students have to study hard without any hobbies.
C. Everyone has his or her own hobbies.
D. Interests are something we practise ourselves.

Dr. Dolittle lived in a small town called Puddleby. Everyone in the town knew him. The dog and children ran after him.He lived in a small house, but he had a large garden. He kept many animals in his garden. His favorite animals were Dab-Dab, a duck; Jip, a dog; Gub-Gub, a baby pig and Polynesia, a parrot. He also kept some fish, rabbits, cats, a squirrel, a cow and a baby cow, a horse, chickens and so on.
Dr. Dolittle didn’t have many patients. Most people didn’t like all of his animals, so when they were ill, they went to a doctor in another town.
“But you don’t have any money,” his sister told him. “You need patients.”
“I have a patient,” Dr. Dolittle answered, “The cat’s-meat-man. He’s the man who sells me meat for the cat.”
“He doesn’t pay you enough to live on,” his sister told him.
“Then I’ll sell everything I have,” he said.
And he did. He sold most of his furniture. He also sold most of his clothes. Then he had enough money to buy food for himself and his animals.
One day, the cat’s-meat-man said to him, “Why don’t you stop being a doctor for people and become a doctor for animals instead I’m sure that you know a lot about animals—more than most vets. You wrote a wonderful book about cats. I’d send all the people with sick dogs or cats to you.”
When the cat’s-meat-man left, Polynesia, the parrot, flew onto the table. “He’s right, Doctor,” Polynesia said. “You should become an animal doctor.”
“There are a lot of vets,” Dr, Dolittle said.
“Perhaps there are a lot of vets. But you’d be the best vet of all. I’m not the only animal that can talk. All the animals can talk. Each kind of animal has its own language. I’ll teach you mine if you like.”
“Yes, please,” Dr. Dolittle said. He opened a drawer and took out a notebook and pencil. “Will you teach me the parrot’s ABCs first ” he asked.
Polynesia agreed to teach Dr. Dolittle parrot language. Later that day, Jip came into the room. Polynesia said, “He’s talking to you, Doctor.”
“I don’t think he is,” Dr. Dolittle said. “He’s just catching（挠）himself.”
“Dogs talk with their ears, their noses, and their tails,” Polynesia told him. They don’t always make a noise. Do you see how he is moving his nose now ”
“Yes.”
“He is telling us that it has stopped raining, and he wants to ask you a question.”
Every day, Dr. Dolittle learned the languages of the animals. When people found out he was now an animal doctor, they brought their sick pets to him.
One day, a horse said to him, “You’re a much better animal doctor than the vet. You knew I couldn’t see well, and you made glasses for me.”
The horse was very pleased. He could see very well. He told all his friends how clever Dr. Dolittle was, and they told all their friends. Soon, many animals came to see him. He had a different door for each animal, and he wrote the name of each kind of animal above each door. HORSES, COWS, …
Before long, every animal that lived in or near the town became the doctor’s patient. He was very happy, and he liked his life very much.
—Adapted from The Story of Dr. Dolittle

One day, three of my friends came to our house.
They told me they wanted to go to Africa. They asked me if I wanted to go with them. I said, "Yes, I want to go with you."
We started to prepare all the necessary things for the journey. Soon we were ready to go. I said goodbye to my wife and we started our journey. Our plan was to be back in two months.
We left Brazil on the first of September, 1655. Our ship was very big but we were only seventeen men. The ship was full of things for business. We had cups, glass, mirrors, knives and other products.
At the beginning of our journey the weather was very good, but very hot. In one week, a hurricane(飓风)came and it was threatening our ship for the next twelve days. After the hurricane passed, we saw we went quite far from our original(原来的)journey and were instead close to the northern part of Brazil near the Orinoco River. The ship was badly damaged, so we could no longer go to Africa.
The captain wanted us to go back and repair the ship, but I strongly disagreed with him. We went over the maps and decided the best thing to do was to go to Barbados and repair the ship there.
When we started this short trip, a second hurricane came. The next morning one of the sailors cried out, "Land " and at that moment the ship stopped in shallow(浅的)water. We expected the ship to break apart at any moment because of the strong wind, so we all got into the small boat the ship carried. This was very dangerous because the seventeen of us were crowded in the boat, and it had no sail.
The waves were very big. The wind was extremely strong. The wind pushed us to big rocks. We knew the crash was close.
Suddenly, a huge wave appeared and overturned the boat. I was covered with water and couldn't breathe. I couldn't see tile others or the boat. But I saw a little beach between the rocks.
Another wave carried me to the beach. I tried to get up. I tried to go further froth the sea. I was able to move ten metres up. I was safe. But my arms and legs were very weak. I fell down and I was lying on the beach.
10. Why did the writer and his friends go to Africa .
A. To leave their wives. B. To earn some money.
C. To send things to Africa. D. To travel around Africa.
11. What did they do after the first hurricane passed
A. They had to go back to the place where they started.
B. They studied the map and found a new way to Africa.
C. They headed for the nearest place to repair their ship..
D. They lost their way on the sea and gave up their ship.
12. Which is NOT the reason for the boat becoming dangerous
A. Shallow water. B. No sail. C. Crowded men. D. Big waves.
13. Which of the following shows the right order of the event
① The ship changed the direction after the hurricane.
② All the men escaped to the boat but it turned over.
③ The writer was washed up on tile beach by a wave.
④ The ship left Brazil with seventeen men on board.
⑤ The strong wind almost broke the ship into pieces.
A.④⑤①②③ B.④①②⑤③ C.④①⑤②③ D.④②①⑤③

六、阅读填空（本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分）
When thinking of e-sports, people usually imagine a teenage boy, sitting in front of a computer for hours, days, and even weeks. He wears glasses and is out of shape. He pays little attention to his schoolwork or family.
But things are quite different now. More and more young people are seeing e-sports as a future career. Those, who succeed as e-sports stars, say that players have to be healthy in mind, body and spirit if they want to do well in this field.
The game Dota is one example. This game has already created a culture around itself. And many people say it is providing real benefits for players. Dota is played in teams. That means playing it requires a great deal of teamwork. No players can succeed alone, and teams that are cohesive(有凝聚力的) certainly have an advantage over others. It is really a good place for players to learn to work well with others. Supporters of e-sports also say they provide a useful way for young people to deal with stress. “Playing Dota can really help us deal with stress. I think it is a much better way to relax than drinking and smoking,” said Li, a Dota player.
One challenge the e-sports players face is the opposition from their parents and teachers. Most players’ parents and teachers are worried that their children’s schoolwork will be influenced badly by playing those games too often.
As for me, e-sports are really about much more than just wasting time in front of a computer. Those hours spent in front of a computer can become an investment (投资) in the future if we take the right steps to keep a balance between studies and games.

When the cat’s-meat-man left, Polynesia, the parrot, flew onto the table. “He’s right, Doctor,” Polynesia said. “You should become an animal doctor.”
“There are a lot of vets,” Dr, Dolittle said.
“Perhaps there are a lot of vets. But you’d be the best vet of all. I’m not the only animal that can talk. All the animals can talk. Each kind of animal has its own language. I’ll teach you mine if you like.”
“Yes, please,” Dr. Dolittle said. He opened a drawer and took out a notebook and pencil. “Will you teach me the parrot’s ABCs first ” he asked.
Polynesia agreed to teach Dr. Dolittle parrot language. Later that day, Jip came into the room. Polynesia said, “He’s talking to you, Doctor.”
“I don’t think he is,” Dr. Dolittle said. “He’s just catching（挠）himself.”
“Dogs talk with their ears, their noses, and their tails,” Polynesia told him. They don’t always make a noise. Do you see how he is moving his nose now ”
“Yes.”
“He is telling us that it has stopped raining, and he wants to ask you a question.”
Every day, Dr. Dolittle learned the languages of the animals. When people found out he was now an animal doctor, they brought their sick pets to him.
One day, a horse said to him, “You’re a much better animal doctor than the vet. You knew I couldn’t see well, and you made glasses for me.”
The horse was very pleased. He could see very well. He told all his friends how clever Dr. Dolittle was, and they told all their friends. Soon, many animals came to see him. He had a different door for each animal, and he wrote the name of each kind of animal above each door. HORSES, COWS, …
Before long, every animal that lived in or near the town became the doctor’s patient. He was very happy, and he liked his life very much.

One day, three of my friends came to our house.
They told me they wanted to go to Africa. They asked me if I wanted to go with them. I said, "Yes, I want to go with you."
We started to prepare all the necessary things for the journey. Soon we were ready to go. I said goodbye to my wife and we started our journey. Our plan was to be back in two months.
We left Brazil on the first of September, 1655. Our ship was very big but we were only seventeen men. The ship was full of things for business. We had cups, glass, mirrors, knives and other products.
At the beginning of our journey the weather was very good, but very hot. In one week, a hurricane(飓风)came and it was threatening our ship for the next twelve days. After the hurricane passed, we saw we went quite far from our original(原来的)journey and were instead close to the northern part of Brazil near the Orinoco River. The ship was badly damaged, so we could no longer go to Africa.
The captain wanted us to go back and repair the ship, but I strongly disagreed with him. We went over the maps and decided the best thing to do was to go to Barbados and repair the ship there.
When we started this short trip, a second hurricane came. The next morning one of the sailors cried out, "Land " and at that moment the ship stopped in shallow(浅的)water. We expected the ship to break apart at any moment because of the strong wind, so we all got into the small boat the ship carried. This was very dangerous because the seventeen of us were crowded in the boat, and it had no sail.
The waves were very big. The wind was extremely strong. The wind pushed us to big rocks. We knew the crash was close.
Suddenly, a huge wave appeared and overturned the boat. I was covered with water and couldn't breathe. I couldn't see tile others or the boat. But I saw a little beach between the rocks.
Another wave carried me to the beach. I tried to get up. I tried to go further froth the sea. I was able to move ten metres up. I was safe. But my arms and legs were very weak. I fell down and I was lying on the beach.
10. Why did the writer and his friends go to Africa .
A. To leave their wives. B. To earn some money.
C. To send things to Africa. D. To travel around Africa.
11. What did they do after the first hurricane passed
A. They had to go back to the place where they started.
B. They studied the map and found a new way to Africa.
C. They headed for the nearest place to repair their ship..
D. They lost their way on the sea and gave up their ship.
12. Which is NOT the reason for the boat becoming dangerous
A. Shallow water. B. No sail. C. Crowded men. D. Big waves.
13. Which of the following shows the right order of the event
① The ship changed the direction after the hurricane.
② All the men escaped to the boat but it turned over.
③ The writer was washed up on tile beach by a wave.
④ The ship left Brazil with seventeen men on board.
⑤ The strong wind almost broke the ship into pieces.

六、阅读填空（本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分）
When thinking of e-sports, people usually imagine a teenage boy, sitting in front of a computer for hours, days, and even weeks. He wears glasses and is out of shape. He pays little attention to his schoolwork or family.
But things are quite different now. More and more young people are seeing e-sports as a future career. Those, who succeed as e-sports stars, say that players have to be healthy in mind, body and spirit if they want to do well in this field.
The game Dota is one example. This game has already created a culture around itself. And many people say it is providing real benefits for players. Dota is played in teams. That means playing it requires a great deal of teamwork. No players can succeed alone, and teams that are cohesive(有凝聚力的) certainly have an advantage over others. It is really a good place for players to learn to work well with others. Supporters of e-sports also say they provide a useful way for young people to deal with stress. “Playing Dota can really help us deal with stress. I think it is a much better way to relax than drinking and smoking,” said Li, a Dota player.
One challenge the e-sports players face is the opposition from their parents and teachers. Most players’ parents and teachers are worried that their children’s schoolwork will be influenced badly by playing those games too often.
As for me, e-sports are really about much more than just wasting time in front of a computer. Those hours spent in front of a computer can become an investment (投资) in the future if we take the right steps to keep a balance between studies and games.
