Mary and Peter were having a picnic with some friends near a river when Mary noticed an object overhead. "Look!" she shouted to her friends. "That's a spaceship up there and it's going to land here."
Frightened by the strange silver-colored spaceship, most of the young people got in their cars and drove away quickly. Peter was fond of Mary and always stayed close to her. They, more curious than frightened, watched the spaceship land and saw a door open. Peter followed Mary into the spaceship and did not hear the door closed behind him. The temperature fell rapidly and the two young people lost consciousness (知觉).
When they woke up, they were surprised to see that they were back by the river again. The spaceship had gone. Their car was nearby.
"What happened " asked Mary.
Peter scratched (抓) his head, saying slowly, "Don't ask me. Perhaps we had a dream. Did you...Did you see a spaceship "
"Yes," said Mary. "And we both went into it. Then..." she looked at her wrist. "That's funny. My watch has stopped. Oh, well, come on. It's time to go home."
Driving about fifty meters, they found their way blocked by a thick wall made of something like glass. They got out of the car and tried to find their way round the wall but discovered that they were inside a round wall. It was like a mirror and prevented them from seeing through it.
On the other side of the wall, strange creatures walked past slowly. A few stopped to look through the wall and read a new notice: "New arrivals at the zoo: a pair of Earthlings in their natural surroundings with their mobile house."
56.When the spaceship arrived, why didn't Peter drive away
A) He did not want to leave Mary alone. B) He knew that the spaceship was harmless.
C) He was too frightened to drive. D) There was a wall blocking the road.
57. Why did Peter enter the spaceship
A) He saw the food and was hungry. B) Mary told him to enter it.
C) He just followed Mary. D) He wanted to study it.

D) he was still half asleep

(D) Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答问题,每题所填内容不超过六个单词):
Many people these days eat too much junk food, such as French fries and hamburgers. When they eat junk food, they become overweight. Because they are overweight, they don’t want to exercise. Sometimes they don’t want to exercise because they do not have the energy. But being tired isn’t the only reason. It’s also because they don’t like the way they look and don’t want other people to see them when they exercise. All this makes overweight people unhappier.
How serious is China’s weight problem In 2002, Chinese health officials released a national health survey. It said that more than 10 percent of boys, and 5 percent of girls, aged 7 to 18, were overweight. 30 million Chinese over age 20 were overweight. These figures are roughly double the figures from 1995.
Why do people eat junk food There are many reasons. One reason is that it’s easier to open a bag of junk food like potato chips than it is to cook an egg. But an egg is much healthier. Another reason is that young children are given too much junk food by their parents and grandparents. Nicola Gram is a doctor who looks at how people eat and how happy they feel. She says, “It’s unhealthy to spoil children with food like chocolate and French fries and sugar drinks like coke. Instead, a good family should give children lots of fresh fruits, vegetables, fish, and drinks like juice and milk.”
But there is another reason why people are overweight. They are too busy. There are not enough hours in the day. To make time, people sleep less. But this is wrong, especially for children. Most children need eight hours’ sleep each night. If you don’t have enough sleep, it can make you unhappy in different ways. If you are tired during the day, you might not be able to study or work very well. This can make other people unhappy with you. If you don’t do your work well, you might have to catch up later, working late at night. Then the next day you are even more tired.
So, how can you be happy It’s easy. Stop eating junk food, get more sleep, and exercise three times a week. Start today!
61. What are the two kinds of junk food mentioned by the writer
They are ________________________________________________
62. Is being tired the only reason not to exercise
________________________________________________________
63. How many boys were overweight according to the health survey in 2002
________________________________________________________
64. Which is healthier, an egg or potato chips
________________________________________________________
65. How do people make time
