Calvin Gillian didn’t believe that Norway was the place for an adventurous (惊险的) holiday. However, his brother and some friends told him to go there and he enjoyed it.
“I’m an extreme sports (极限运动) lover. I have traveled to many different countries, but I didn’t expect Norway to be a good place for an adventurous holiday. People usually visit Norway to go fishing and boating to enjoy a relaxing holiday, or to go climbing to enjoy the beauty of nature. But I didn’t go for them; I wanted adventure.
“Skiing (滑雪) is the most unforgettable thing I did in Norway. I went skiing in Svartisen. I had to wear special clothes, because skiing there could be very dangerous. Svartisen is a very special and beautiful place. The ice there is not the usual white but blue, like the sea.
“I also visited the Holmenkollen Ski Jump in Oslo. It was fantastic to look from the top of the ski jump (滑雪跳台) and the ski museum was very interesting. I wanted to try a jump but unluckily, it didn’t open when I visited. Anyway, I was very tired and needed a break, so I went back to my hotel and got some sleep.
“Next year, I am going to take my sister to Norway, too. She is having her holiday with our parents in Australia now and she wants to have a different kind of adventure next year.”

London used to be “foggy” for the same reason that cities like Beijing or Chongqing are “foggy” today. The “fog” was in fact smog, a mixture of smoke and fog. In other words, it was made by air pollution. In London, some of this pollution came from factories, but much of it came from the coal (煤) that people burnt in their houses to keep warm during the winter. By the 1950s, London’s smog problem had become so bad that the government decided to do something to clean the air. A new law was made and nobody could burn coal in any British city. Within a few years, the air became much cleaner. There were no more “pea-soupers”.
Many Chinese cities now face the same sort of problem with air pollution that London faced 40 or 50 years ago. However, this problem is more difficult for Chinese cities to solve. One reason is that more of the pollution comes from the factories, rather than from coal burnt in people’s houses. If these factories were closed, this would harm the economy and lots of people would lose their jobs. Another reason is that changing from coal to cleaner fuel (燃料), like gas, is quite expensive.
However, the air in many Chinese cities is becoming cleaner and cleaner, as the government and people pay more and more attention to cutting down pollution. As a result, there are fewer “pea-soupers” in Beijing than there used to be.
17.What was the main reason for air pollution in London
A.There was too much smoke in the sky.
B.There were too many factories in the city.
C.People burnt too much coal in the houses.
D.The city was too big for the cleaners to clean.
18.How did the air in London become much cleaner
A.There was not so much fog in the winter later.
B.A law was made to keep people from burning coal in their houses.
C.Many factories in the city were closed.
D.People paid more attention to cleaning their city.
19.What does the underlined word “pea-soupers” refer to
A.Smog. B.Smoke. C.Gas. D.Coal.
20.The problem of air pollution is more difficult for Chinese cities to solve because of _____ reasons.
A.one B.two C.three D.four
21.Which sentence is NOT true
A.Air pollution is serious in Beijing and Chongqing.
B.Using coal is much more expensive than using gas.
C.Factories made much more pollution in China.
D.The reasons of air pollution in London and Beijing are different.

Here are two amazing shops from the world.
One of the most famous department stores in New York City is Macy's.There are over 850 Macy's stores all over the US, but the flagship store is in Herald Square,Manhattan---just around the corner from the Empire State Building. Interestingly, Rowland Macy, the company founder ( 创始人 ), opened his first shops between 1843 and 1855, but they weren't successful. However, Macy learned from his mistakes, and in 1858 he moved to New York. He opened his first New York store on October 18, 1858 and was immediately successful. Macy's is especially famous for its Thanksgiving Day Parade, which marks the beginning of the Christmas season.
One of the oldest shops in London is Fortnum & Mason.
It was founded by William Fortnum and Hugh Mason in
1707 in central London. Originally, the shop only sold food, but these days, it sells all kinds of other things including clothes, books and games. It has the "Gentleman's Department" on the top floor, a famous tea shop and several restaurants. The business started out small, but in 1761, William Fortnum’s grandson, Charles, went to work for Queen Charlotte. As a result, the royals ( 皇家 ) started shopping there and continues to now. In fact, Queen Elizabeth visited Fortnum's last year. Fortnum's is really famous for its hampers, which are baskets of food.

Have you seen Avatar?It’s a popular movie this year. It is three-dimensional(3D), so you may have to wear a special pair of glasses to see it. The 3D glasses make the images(图像) from the movie look like they are coming straight at you.
More and more 3D movies are coming to theaters. 3D TV sets have been produced in Japan now. Three-dimensional technology can make TV and movies more exciting. But people with eye problems may get headaches if they spend too much time watching 3D movies.
When we look at an object(物体), each eye sees it at a different angle(角度). Our eyes send the two images to our brain(大脑), and the brain puts them together. That’s how we see depth(深度). So when we watch a 3D movie, one film projector(投影机) projects a left eye image and the other projects a right eye image. 3D glasses allow us to see a different image in each eye.
There are a lot of people walking around with very less serious eye problems. Under normal situations, the brain can adjust to their eyes so they can see things normally.
But when they are watching a 3D movie, the images projected to their eyes can’t be put together by their brain. So the brain needs to work harder at reading the images. That makes it easier for these people to get headaches.
Dr John Hagan, an eye doctor in Kansas City, said some people who do not see depth normally cannot see in 3D at all.
36.When people want to watch a three-dimensional movie, they need .
A.a ticket B.a pair of 3D glasses C.an earphone
37.Three-dimensional technology uses film projector(s) to project one movie at the same time.
A.one B.two C.three
38.According to the passage, if we look at an object by only one eye, we can’t judge the excatly.
A.image B.angle C.depth
39.Which statement is TRUE according to the passage
A.In the near future, people can enjoy 3D movie by watching TV at home.
B.Whenever you wear a 3D glasses, you can see objects more clearly.
C.People who have something wrong with their brain can’t read the images of 3D movie.
40.The main idea of this passage is .
A.how to use 3D glasses to watch a 3D movie.
B.3D glasses make the movie seem alive
C.not everybody can enjoy 3D movies.

Gao Defu, 10, is a student in a primary school in a small village in Guizhou. He used to go hungry or have only an ear of corn for lunch at noon. But now, Gao and his classmates have better food and vegetable dishes for free every day, thanks to the free lunch program.
The program was started by Deng Fei, a journalist at the Phoenix Weekly (《凤凰周刊》). Early this year, Deng met Xiao Yu, a primary school teacher from Guizhou, and was told that students in Xiao’s school didn’t have lunch to eat. Instead, they drank water to lessen their hunger.

According to the China Development Research Foundation (基金会) , there are about 23 million resident students (住宿生) in central and western rural areas. Many of them come from poor families and can’t afford nutritious lunches. Now, schools with kids that can’t afford lunch can apply for help through the free lunch program’s official website.

A job well done
Whirrr. The deafening sound of a power washer echoed in the neighborhood. Earlier, my dad had bought a power washer—and we were finally going to get our deck clean. After years of using a brush, we now had a high-power, high-pressure washer: a little square machine that sprayed out a strong stream of water.
My dad took the first shift, and washed our upper deck. I watched in amazement as the washer simply left clean wood—exactly the color of the paint originally. “Wow, our deck sure got dirty this year,” I thought. However, that was exactly why we were cleaning—so that we could have sparkling floors outside once again. The machine hummed along, and I decided to change before I had to start cleaning. I put on some light clothing, since the sun was high in the sky, and a sunhat to protect my face from a sunburn.
I took charge of the lower deck. I could feel the machine vibrating the whole deck, and I nervously started on a corner. It felt as if the whole deck would fall! But after a few minutes and no large cracking sound, I relaxed and let the loud monotonous buzzing send me into a comfortable pattern. Left, right, left, right. Surprisingly, the paint on the lower deck ended up being completely stripped off! It wasn’t that big of a loss though, since we were going to repaint the deck anyhow. Left, right, left, right. Soon, I had made a large sized “hole” of unpainted deck.
I looked to my left—sigh. There was still a lot left to go.
The sun shined, and I kept going. Buzz, buzz. Left, right, back, and forth. Slowly, I moved from the top to the bottom, from one end of the deck to the other. With the last bit sprayed clean, I jumped for joy! Finally, it was done. I put away the machine, went inside and sat down on the couch, and admired my work. A beautiful deck, nice and sparkling from all my hard work!
56.The author used ________ to clean their deck.
A.a brush B.the power washer C.a mop D.rags
57._________ washed the upper deck.
A.The author B.The author’s mother C.The author’s father D.The author and his father
58.What does the underlined word “sunburn” mean
A.紫外线 B.晒伤 C.阳光 D.日光浴
59.Did the author cause heavy losses when he washed the lower deck
A.Yes, he did. B.No, he didn’t. C.It doesn’t say. D.We don’t know.
60.What does the passage tell
A.A story of cleaning house. B.A story of cleaning garden.
