More and more people around the world are joining in dangerous sports. Some people climbed the highest mountains; some travelled into unknown parts of the world; some sailed small boats across the largest sea. Now some people begin to look for new excitement.
Bungee jumping(蹦极) and motorcycle racing(摩托车赛) are quite dangerous sports. Bungee jumping only lasts for a few minutes or even seconds. You jump from a high place, about 200 metres above the ground, and there is a rubber band(橡胶带子) tied to your legs. When you jump down, the rubber band pulls you up. About 2 million people around the world have tried bungee jumping.
Why do people join in these dangerous sports Some scientists say that it is because modern life has become safe and it is not interesting. In the past, people lived in danger. They had to go out and look for food, and life was like a fight but was interesting.
Many people think that there is little excitement in life. They live and work in safe places, buy food in shops, and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill.

Join the Roller Coaster Club!
You're sitting in a tiny car. The car is part of a very small train that runs on a narrow track. Slowly, the little train climbs to the top of a huge hill.
You're high above the ground, so high that you can see for miles. Suddenly, you rush toward the ground at a speed that takes your breath away. You're on your way up again, and this time you're upside down!
You go up, down, and around. You're on a roller coaster(过山车). Some people think riding a roller coaster is really terrifying. One ride is more than enough for them, even in a lifetime. However, other people love riding roller coasters. They ride their favourite roller coaster over and over. They also like to try out new roller coasters.
There's a club for people who are very crazy about riding roller coasters. It's called ACE. ACE is a short form for American Coaster Enthusiasts(热衷者). Steven Reagan and Kevin Lipnicky belong to ACE, and so do their family members. Their family holidays often include trips to amusement parks for several rides on new roller coasters.
As members of ACE, the boys were among the first to ride a new roller coaster at Sea World in Texas. It's called the Great White, which is the name of a kind of shark.
Sometimes, amusement parks close the roller coasters to everyone except ACE members.
“If there's no one in line，” says Steven, “we keep our seats and ride again！”
It's not all fun for ACE members. They also have a job to do. They tell owners of new amusement parks where the old roller coasters are. The owners buy the old roller coasters and move them to new homes so that they can be fixed instead of being destroyed(毁坏).
For ACE members, roller coaster riding is fun, fun, fun! People are thankful to the work they do to save different old roller coasters.
(　　)9.When a roller coaster takes you to the top, high above the ground, it will probably ________.

(　　)11.From this passage, you can tell that members of ACE ________.
A.are all adults
B.love to ride roller coasters
C.don't like to ride the Great White
D.only ride old roller coasters
(　　)12.Which statement is probably NOT TRUE about Steven

阅读短文， 然后根据内容回答问题。
Shadow puppetry(皮影戏) started during the Western Han Dynasty and it has a long history of more than 2，000 years. It used to be popular in the countryside because it was simple and cheap.
The puppets are usually made from leather(皮革) or paper. It is hard to make them. The puppet-makers have to take 24 steps, which include washing the leather, carving(雕刻) and painting, to make a puppet.
Just like many things that are in danger, traditional arts also face the risk of disappearing. “Many young people still think that shadow puppetry is an old-fashioned folk art，” said Liu Chaokan, the sixth-generation inheritor(继承人) of shadow puppetry in Yunnan Province.
Liu understands why old art forms can't interest young people, so he connects new stories with the traditional form of storytelling. In a recent show based on the ancient Chinese novel Journey to the West, Baigujing dances to a Korean pop song. Popular Chinese cartoon characters, together with modern factors(元素), are Liu's secret of getting the attention of children. “Since they couldn't understand those old stories, why don't we show them the cartoon characters they love in shadow puppetry shows？” said Liu.
To keep the old art forever young, Liu thinks they should respect(尊重) its traditions and protect the basics of the art.

1．B　解析：细节理解题。根据表格“★①How often do you watch TV？”中的sometimes对应的是大约24可知，大约有24个学生有时看电视。故选B。
2．D　解析：细节理解题。根据表格“★②How often do you surf the Internet？”中的every day占比22%可知，22%的学生每天上网。故选D。
3．B　解析：细节理解题。根据表格中的信息可知，只有“★①How often do you watch TV？”以及“★④How often do you help to do housework？”中没有出现never, 由此可知看电视和帮忙做家务是每个学生都会做的。故选B。

7．A　解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“In the past, people lived in danger. They had to go out and look for food, and life was like a fight...”可知，在过去， 人们不得不出去寻找食物， 生活就像一场战斗， 由此推测， 过去人们生活在危险之中是因为生活条件恶劣。故选A。

10．D　解析：词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“Some people think riding a roller coaster is really terrifying. One ride is more than enough for them, even in a lifetime. However, other people love riding roller coasters.”可知，However表示前后句意存在转折关系， 有些人很爱坐过山车， 有些人则因某种原因而不爱坐过山车， 他们觉得坐过一次过山车就足够了， 所以有人觉得坐过山车是很可怕的。画线单词terrifying意为“可怕的”， 与scary同义。故选D。

Nowadays, more and more free time activities appear in middle school students' lives. “Education and fun” has become a very common and popular education method, and students are no longer stuck with textbooks. During my free time, I often go outside and do all kinds of sports that I like. I think that taking exercise can make myself relax. Sometimes I also stay at home after doing my homework at weekends and watch my favourite TV programmes. I am sure that watching TV allows me to understand the boundless universe better. I think that various activities help me to master the knowledge we have learned better. I like this education method very much.
