A
Do you want to live a happier, less stressful life Try laughing for no reason at all. That’s how thousands of people start their day at Laughter Clubs around the world — and many doctors now think that having a good laugh might be one of the best ways to stay healthy.
The first Laughter Club was started in Mumbai, India, in 1995 by Dr. Madan Kataria. “Young children laugh about 300 times a day. Adults laugh between 7 and 15 times a day,” says Dr. Kataria, “Everyone’s naturally good at laughing. We want people to feel happy with their lives.” There are now more than 500 Laughter Clubs in India and over 1,300 worldwide.
Many doctors are also interested in the effects of laughter on our health. According to a 5-year study at the UCLA School of Medicine in California, with laughing there is less stress in the body. Laughter improves our health against illness by about 40%.
So, what happens at a Laughter Club I went along to my nearest club in South London to find out. I was quite nervous at the beginning of the class, to be honest — I wasn’t interested in laughing with a group of strangers, and I was worried about looking stupid. Our laughter teacher told us to clap our hands and say “ho ho ho, ha ha ha,” while looking at each other. However, our bodies can’t tell the difference between fake laughter and real laughter, so they still produce the same healthy effects.
Surprisingly, it works! After ten minutes everybody in the room was laughing for real — and some people just couldn’t stop! At the end of the class I was surprised by how relaxed and comfortable I felt. So if you’re under stress, then start laughing. You might be very pleased with the results!
56. The first Laughter Club was started in _____.
A. Britain B. America C. Australia D. India
57. The writer felt _____ at the beginning of the class
A. surprised B. pleased C. nervous D. stressful
58. The people in the club began to laugh for real _____
A. after ten minutes B. after ten hours
C. after a few seconds D. after ten days
59. Which of the following is true according to the passage
A. Fake laughter and real laughter are both good for health.
B. 40% of the people in Laughter Clubs are good friends.
C. Adults laugh more often than children in a day.
D. Laughing is the best way to prevent illness.

Driving a car at a high speed along a highway seems to be fun. You need only to follow the bright traffic signs beside the highways and it will take you to where you wish. But to a London taxi driver, driving is not an easy job. A taxi driver has to have not only skills but also a good knowledge of the city of London, from the smaller road to the most popular bar around. He has to be at service of all kinds of passengers at all times.
A certain London taxi driver told of his job as follows.
During the night it is quite usual for him to stop two or three times for some refreshments (提神). He said, “I never drink when I’m working --- I would lose my license.”
He usually goes home between 2 and 3 o’clock in the night. There are times he has to stay longer and try to make more runs. He said, “That’s the worst thing about working for yourself. If you don’t make any money, no one is going to give it to you.”
London taxi drivers not only “take” but also “give”. Every summer hundreds of children from London will go for a day at the sea --- by taxi! Their rides are paid by the taxi drivers, and these all go to the “London Taxi for Underprivileged Children”. At the sea, they are met by the mayor (市长), and a lunch party is also held in honor of the taxi drivers and the children. After a happy day running around the sea beaches and visiting the markets, the children go home again --- by taxi, and free of charge (支出), of course!
60. From the first paragraph, we can see that________.
A. highways are developing very fast and there are more and more taxis.
B. it is easy to get to any place of the country now
C. it is fun to travel everywhere in a car
D. the writer wants to tell us that a London taxi driver has many difficulties in his driving

A. he has to know all the places in the city and serve all kinds of passengers at all the time
B. there is much traffic in London and people there like traveling by taxi
C. he has to follow the bright traffic sighs
D. although he works hard he earns little money
62. The underlined phrase “Underprivileged Children” in the last paragraph is about the children ________.
A. who have little knowledge B. whose families are poor
C. who will go to sea D. who like taking a taxi
63. What is the passage about
A. Traffic in London. B. London taxi for children
C. Taxi divers’ job in London. D. Drivers disliking taxis in London
C
In the tenth grade, I began volunteering at a vet hospital in order to get experience for what I thought would be my future job. As it turned out, the experience I got at the hospital taught me the opposite: my future was not in vet medicine. However, there is one particular Saturday morning that taught me something maybe more important.
The hospital was in the middle of one of the poorer sections of the city and we often had people come in who could just only pay for the most basic treatments. This Saturday a man and his young son, who was probably about 7 years old, walked in with a small cat in a cardboard box. I remember the cat had an eye infection (感染) but the man could not afford to pay for the cost of the medicine in addition to the exam. When he asked where the nearest the animal shelter(庇护所) was, his son cried and started to argue with his father. Out of the blue, an older woman who was sitting in the waiting room stood up, walked up to the counter, and told the man that she would pay for anything that he could not afford. The man thanked her and the son got to keep a healthy cat.
I had always thought it was the right thing to help out a needy person, but it was only seen on TV or in movies. The woman in the vet’s office taught me that these things do happen in real life, and should happen more often. When I am hesitant (犹豫) to help someone who is in need, I remember that woman, and have the courage to do it. Sometimes other people follow.
64. Why did the writer work at the vet hospital
A. He thought he would work there in the future.
B. He wanted to get some skills of treating animals.
C. He wanted to get some money for his schooling.
D. He wanted to get some experience for his future work.
65. What is the most important according to the writer
A. How to be a kind person who helps others.
B. The practical experience of the vet job.
C. How to deal with the owners of pets.
D. The knowledge of vet medicine.
66. What does the underlined phrase “out of the blue”
A. Out of order. B. All of a sudden C. Now and then. D. First of all.
67. The ________ made the writer have the courage to help someone in need.
A. The officer B. The boy C. The woman D. The father
D

On the old-time farm in America, there were chickens, cows, pigs and horses. But there were very few machines. Most of the work was done by the farm family. Sometimes more workmen were needed in busy seasons. Work done by horses took up 79 percent; by men, 15 percent; and machine work only took up 6 percent.
Today all that has changed. On many modern farms machines now will do 96 percent of the work, while man does 3 percent. As for horses, they do 1 percent of the whole work.

Good morning, boys and girl. Today I’ll talk about going online.
We know that there are too many net bars around us. The Internet can make our lives interesting and enjoyable. Many of us like going online very much because we can learn how to use the computer. We can learn English and read some newspapers and magazines to know more around us. It can make us clever in playing computer games. Also when we can send e-mails to our friends they can get them at once. It can help us contact people from all over the world.
But some students spend too much time in playing computer games and some stay in the net bars all day and all night. Some girls even get to have boyfriends or some boys get to have girlfriends online. They write too many letters to each other. It takes them too much time to chat online so they do worse in their lessons and they don’t study well any more. I think we mustn’t get online when it is time for us to study. We can do it in summer or winter holidays. I think we should get online with our teachers or parents.
At the same time, if we have lots of free time, we can do some activities after school. We usually have activities from 4:50 to 5:50 in the afternoon . You can play basket ball or football. We also have some interest groups in school, such as drawing, singing and dancing. We can go to the English corner on Monday afternoon. We hope we can spend more time on our subjects or on such activities that we can learn a lot from and less time on the Internet.
Title: A 71 about going online。
72 ● Make our lives interesting and make us 73 our lives.● Learn how to use the computer and can get more 74 .● Send e-mails to our friends 75 .● Help us get in touch with people from all over the world.
Disadvantages ● It 76 too much time to play computer games. ● Some students write too 77 letters to each other and spend too much time 78 online so they do worse in their lessons.
Advice Do it in summer or winter holidays; do some 79 activities and have some 80 groups in school.

One possible version:
Last week our class had a parents' meeting. At the meeting, all the parents talked about whether doing a lot of homework was useful or not. Many parents thought that doing much homework was useful. They thought by doing a lot of homework, the students could review what they had learned. It would also help to develop the students' minds and stop them playing computer games.
But a few parents thought that too much homework was useless. Because doing much homework took a lot of time and thus students could not have a good rest. What's more, they could not do the things they liked.
In my opinion, doing some suitable homework is necessary and helpful. ……
