The workers there will tell people to keep quiet in the study areas.
“We hope to create a perfect learning place for people who want to study,” said Wang Yi, founder（创始人）of a 24—hour paid study room. “Over the past six months since we opened, the market demand（需求）is beyond expectation（预料）. So we are now looking for new places.”

Last year, I didn’t like my English class. Every class was like a bad dream. The teacher spoke so quickly that I could hardly follow her most of the time. I was afraid to ask questions because of my poor pronunciation. I just hid behind my textbook and never said anything.
Then one day I watched an English movie named Toy Story. I fell in love with this exciting and funny movie! So I began to watch other English movies, too. Although I could not understand everything the characters said, their body language and the expressions on their faces helped me to get the meaning. I also realized I could get the meaning by listening for just the key words. Besides, I learned some useful sentences like “It’s a piece of cake” or “It serves you right”, I didn’t understand these sentences at first. But because I wanted to understand the story, I looked them up in a dictionary.
Now I really enjoy my English class. I want to learn new words and more grammar so that I can have a much clearer understanding of English movies.

Many Chinese students are good at English grammar, but their spoken English is so poor that they can’t speak in class or have a talk with others. There may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English.
First, they fail to express themselves clearly because of a limited(有限的)vocabulary. The useful way is to enlarge their vocabulary. However, you can still communicate with others with a limited vocabulary, if you are active. Others will understand you with the help of your body language.
Second, they are worried about making mistakes. Because they are shy and nervous, sometimes they may make mistakes easily. Yet we should know what we aim at is FLUENCE(流利) not ACCURACY(精确) when speaking. So we should speak as quickly and well as we can, even though sometimes we may use a wrong word or tense(时态), but it doesn’t matter because others will still understand you.
The third reason is that they don’t pay enough attention to listening to what others are saying. So while you are speaking, you can't find the suitable topic or words to say. You have one mouth but two ears! What you hear is necessary for you to start speaking.
Fourth, most Chinese students are passive(被动的) language learners. They just sit there waiting for speaking chances, and don’t actively look for chances to improve their spoken English. All they can get is to accept the fact that their English remains poor.
So please be active from now on, try to catch every chance to speak wherever you go.

In the past, young married couples(夫妇) often had children right after getting married. They didn’t ask themselves if they had the wish to stay up at night with babies, to give up going out at night whenever they wanted to. Now many young couples feel that not having children will make them have a different life style. They prefer to have a more comfortable one.
Michael Shandrik, 30, and his wife Pamela, 28, for example, have joined the growing number of young couples who don’t have and do not want children. Many of their close friends are childless and plan to keep that way. Michael says the decision not to have children developed over four years of marriage. He explains, “We never decided to become childless. It more or less became an understanding after we got married.” Pamela adds, “If I had married before 23, I probably would have children. But as the years went by, I got used to the idea of working and not having children. It’s too late to change now.”
For both of them, the wish for a free life-style played a big part in the decision. Michael, who wants to build a career in communications, makes the point. “We would buy the things we really want instead of going without things because of the children. If we had a child, we would have to start thinking about its education and health. We need the happiness of getting up and going somewhere whenever we want.”

Chinese people have been using traditional Chinese medicine for centuries. Before the western medicine appeared in China, Chinese doctors went to the mountains to pick herbs(草药). Then they made the herbs into Chinese medicine soup to cure patients. When we talk about Chinese medicine, we always think of Li Shizhen, one of the most famous doctors in ancient China. He used to travel in the countryside with a bag of herbs and cure patients. He spent 27 years writing Compendium of Material Medica(《本草纲目》).

In ancient times, people usually wrote from right to left in vertical columns(竖列). But now, we write from left to right in horizontal rows (横行). Why did this change This has to do with the writing tools and habits that people had at that time.
Before paper was created, people wrote on bamboos. They wrote from top to bottom on one piece and then another. These bamboos were connected together into one long passage and rolled up. People usually held it with their right hand and opened it with their left hand. Therefore, it is more convenient to start writing from the right-hand side.
In 1917, linguist(语言学家) Qian Xuantong wrote a letter to the New Culture Movement leader Chen Duxiu. He suggested writing Chinese from left to right. He said that if we used our right hands to write, it would be easier to begin from the left and more comfortable to read. However, his idea wasn’t widely accepted.
In the early 1950s, famous overseas Chinese businessman Chen Jiageng and Chinese writer Guo Moruo raised this advice again. They thought that the area seen from left to right was much wider than the area seen from up to down. In this way, writing and reading sideways will reduce eye fatigue(疲劳).

But she didn’t look like most of the girls who played with them. Some people used to dislike Barbie. “Is that your idea of beauty ” they asked Mattel, the company behind Barbie.
Over the past few years, Mattel has been trying to make its dolls look more like people in real life. The new Barbie dolls show what it means to look like a Barbie, and tell children what real beauty is. Together with the new dolls, Barbie now includes 176 different dolls in all. There are both “perfect” dolls and “imperfect” ones such as a doll with vitiligo (白癜风), a doll with no hair, and a doll with a darker skin tone and a prosthetic limb (假肢). It’s hoped that children of all sizes, colors and abilities will see themselves.
Most people are happy about this change. A curvy (曲线优美的) black Barbie with an Afro (非洲式发型) and a Barbie who uses a wheelchair (轮椅) were top sellers for the brand last year. “The doll in a wheelchair encourages me a lot,” said a girl who has lost a leg.
“I’m very happy that more and more young girls can grow up seeing themselves in Barbie,” says Stella Pavlides, a vitiligo patient. “This is perhaps the best thing that could happen for children.”

Bicycles are used by people of all ages around the world. It's common in many cities to see thousands of bikes streaming down a street.
At first, only men rode bicycles. It was thought that only men could run machines, and that women wouldn't be able to control a bicycle. In the 1890s, though, with women's growing independence(独立), bicycles offered women a way to travel by themselves. Today, of course, men, women, and children ride bicycles.
Most bikes today have two wheels, but you've probably seen other kinds, too.
Some people start riding bikes that have three wheels. The third wheel makes the bike easier to balance. These bikes are called tricycles. As you've seen, the bi- in bicycle means "two". The tri- in tricycle means "three". Bikes with three wheels aren't just for young children. They matter to adults because bikes with three wheels can help move people or things. The most common kind of adult tricycle is the rickshaw(黄包车). Rickshaws are used as bike taxis in many parts of the world.
Some bikes also have only one wheel and no handlebars(把手). These bikes are called unicycles. The first part of the word, uni-, means "one". Riding a bike with only one wheel is a balancing act—that's why unicycles are used in the circus(马戏团).
There are also bikes with four wheels. Bikes with four wheels are called quadracycles. Again, the first part of the word refers to the number of wheels. In this case, quadra-means "four".
根据上面短文内容填空。
96．People of all ages bicycles around the world. It's common in many cities to see bikes streaming down a street.
97．At first, only men rode bicycles. It was thought that women wouldn't have the to control a bicycle. With women's growing independence, bicycles offered women to travel by themselves.

【分析】许多中国学生英语语法很好，但是他们的英语口语很差，他们不敢在课堂上讲话，也不敢和别人交谈。这篇短文主要介绍了他们英语口语有问题的几个主要原因。
16．根据第一段内容“Many Chinese students are good at English grammar, but their spoken English is so poor that they can’t speak in class or have a talk with others.”许多中国学生擅长英语语法，但他们的英语口语太差，以至于他们不能在课堂上讲话或与他人交谈。many Chinese students是主语，后接谓语动词，be good at擅长于……，所以第一空填are good at。分析“they can’t speak in class or have a talk with others...their spoken English is poor.”可知，空上填连词，因为英语口语太差，所以他们不能在课堂上讲话或与他人交谈。所以第二空填because。故填are good at；because。
17．根据“First, they fail to express themselves clearly because of a limited vocabulary.”可知词汇量大的情况下，他们将清楚地表达自己，if引导的条件状语从句遵循主将从现原则，主句用一般将来时，第一空填will express 。根据“Others will understand you with the help of your body language.”其他人会通过你的肢体语言来理解你。第二空前they是主语，由后面的“...by others with their body language even if they have a limited vocabulary.”，可知，他们用肢体语言可以被理解，这里构成被动语态，understand是动词，意为“理解”。will be done是一般将来时的被动语态。第二空填be understood。故填will express；be understood。
18．worry about意为“担忧”，后可接动名词形式作宾语。根据“Second, they are worried about making mistakes. Because they are shy and nervous, sometimes they may make mistakes easily. Yet we should know what we aim at is FLUENCE(流利) not ACCURACY(精确) when speaking.”可知，学生不必担忧犯错误，make mistakes意为“犯错误”。所以第一空填making mistakes。根据“So we should speak as quickly and well as we can”可知，重要的是他们应该尽可能说得又快又好。quickly和well副词，修饰动词speak。as quickly and well as sb. can等同于as quickly and well as possible。故填making mistakes；as quickly and well as。
19．根据“The third reason is that they don’t pay enough attention to listening to what others are saying.”可知，他们应该注意听别人的话。pay attention to关注，注意；should是情态动词，后接动词原形，所以第一空填pay attention to；to是介词，后接“ listening to others’ words”符合题意。根据“What you hear is necessary for you to start speaking.”可知，那你可以使用听到的东西去开始谈话。use是动词，后接宾语，what you hear可作宾语从句。故填pay attention to；what you hear。
20．根据“most Chinese students are passive(被动的) language learners. They just sit there waiting for speaking chances, and don’t actively look for chances to improve their spoken English. All they can get is to accept the fact that their English remains poor.”可知，很少的学生在课堂上学习语言是积极的，大多是被动的；他们应该寻找提升的几乎，而不是坐等机会。Few Chinese students是主语，后接谓语动词，be active to do积极做某事，时态是一般现在时，所以第一空填are active to；第二空，instead of是代替，相反，of之后可接动名词形式，符合题意。故填are active to；instead of。

24．分析句子“A god asked a clever boy when the glory of men would appear. The boy answered that it appeared on the face in the morning, on the chest at noon and on the feet at night.”可知，句中的“it”指代的是“glory”；聪明男孩回答说它早上出现在脸上，中午出现在胸部，晚上出现在脚上。结合“So, Indian people wash these body parts during their Water Festival to wash away their bad luck.”可推断，印度人在泼水节期间清洗这些身体部位，是为了洗去他们的厄运，留下“荣耀”。因此“glory”表示“荣耀”。故填glory。
25．根据文中“In India, the tradition of celebrating water came from the following story.”可知，在印度，庆祝泼水的传统来自一个故事。故填story。
