Pig clock
Even in the Year of the Pig you can't be too lazy. You still have to wake up to go to school each morning. This clock will help you avoid being pulled out of bed by your parents. Besides, who wouldn't love the pig's round face and healthy color? Just don't start copying his sleeping habit.
“Every little thing that you say and do, I'm hung up, hung up on you!” This is how Madonna's hit song, “Hung Up ” goes like this. For us, “you” could mean piglet (小猪). The Year of the Pig is already here. It is a good time to give yourself or your friends gifts related to(相关的) pigs. They might bring good luck.

Soon computers and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes! The programme works because everyone's eyes are different. So in the future you won't have to remember a number when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank. You'll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell who you are.
The eye-recognition programme is already being tested in shops and banks in the USA, Britain, Spain, Italy and Turkey. Soon, this technology will take the place of all other ways of finding out who people are.
However, scientists are working on other systems. Machines will soon be able to know you from the shape of your face or hand or even your smell. We already have machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your fingers.
Eye-recognition is better than other kinds because your eyes don't change as you get older, or get dirty like hands or fingers. And even twins have different eyes, so the programme can be up to 94% correct, depending on how good the technology is. Some programmes may only be right 51% of the time. In Britain, it was found that 91% of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition. the future your computer will be looking you in the eye, so smile!

This is the age of being busy. Many of us live in busy places and have busy lives. Even the roads are busy as we try to get from here to there. Adults are busy going to jobs and taking care of their families. Kids are busy, too, going to school and doing a lot of homework after school and on weekends.
Busy isn't bad, necessarily. If you are not busy enough you might be bored. But if you are too busy you might break down. For example, if you have a soccer game that runs late on a school night and you haven't eaten dinner or done your homework, that's a not-so-fun kind of busy. We wanted to know what kids thought, so we did a Kids Poll about being busy with 882 girls and boys aged 9 to 13.
Almost all of them said they felt stressed because they were too busy. About half said they felt this way once in a while or some of the time. But 17% said they felt this way most of the time and 24% said they felt this way all the time! Oh dear, that’s no fun.
Only 4% of kids said they wanted less free time and 18% said they already had just the right amount. But, no big surprise, 61% of kids wish they had a lot more free time. If they had more time, most would spend it hanging out or playing with friends.
Often, adults plan large parts of a kid's day, especially during the school year. Kids can't tell their parents they'll be skipping school today to get more free time! But they can tell their parents they'd like to play a game or read a book during their free time instead of watching TV.
28. What do we know from the first paragraph?
A. The busy roads are caused by travelers.
B. Many of us nowadays live a busy life.
C. Adults must be easy without their jobs.
D. Kids have no time to do homework.
29. The author shows the effect of being too busy by ______. .
A. giving an example B. telling a story
C. holding a game D. raising a question
30. What has the Kids Poll research shown?
A. All of the kids felt stressed when they were too busy.
B. The kids felt it was no fun doing the experiment.
C. More than half of the kids hoped to have more free time.
D. About 50% of the kids always felt stressed in their life.
31. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. The reasons why people are too busy.
B. The disadvantages of being too busy.
C. How to plan kids' free time at weekends.
D. Giving kids a right amount of free time.
D
Who decided that blue jeans and T-shirts are “cool” for kids to wear today? Who designs the clothes you see for sale in stores? All of these questions concern the world of fashion.
Fashion refers to the styles of dress that are currently popular. Fashion goes beyond just clothes, though. It’s important for some people to wear only the latest fashions and styles. For others, though, keeping up with trends isn’t that important. The one thing that stays the same with fashion is this: it always changes!
In the 1960s and 1970s, hippies made bell-bottomed blue jeans popular. In the 1980s, Michael Jackson made parachute pants (降落伞裤) all the fashion. Now try to find these items in today’s clothing stores!
Why do fashions change? The answer is probably as simple as the fact that people change. Over time, the new replaces the old. People are influenced greatly by popular culture, including athletes, musicians, movie stars, as well as popular films, television shows, books and music. We are also influenced by the fashion industry’s advertising.
The stars of popular culture are always searching for a new angle to maintain (保持) their popularity. Often these new angles come in the form of new clothing or hairstyles. When people see these new styles, they often want to imitate their favorite stars. To do so, they seek out the latest fashions to make themselves look like the people they want to imitate. In this way, fashions evolve and change over time.
For years, clothes have been used to separate people into groups. Even today, brand-name clothing that is more expensive than other types of clothing can be used by some people to distinguish themselves from others.
Unfortunately, this can often have the effect of distancing certain groups from others. Don’t forget that it’s always OK to develop your own sense of style that is unique and separate from what the fashion world determines! Stay true to yourself and let your personality — not your clothes — speak for who you are!
32.The examples of bell-bottomed blue jeans and parachute pants in Paragraph 3 suggest that _____.
A. fashion always changes
B. stars are always influential
C. people have different dressing styles
D. hippies and Michael Jackson are good designers
33.Fashions change mainly because _____.
A. advertisements change rapidly
B. popular culture influences people
C. movie stars are changing over time
D. new films and shows replace the old
34.In the last paragraph, the author mainly wants to stress _____.
A. the advantages of staying unique
B. the bad effects of following fashion
C. the good influences of popular styles
D. the importance of having one’s own personality
35.We can learn from the text that _____.
A. fashion is all about clothes
B. the author has gone out of fashion
C. clothes may separate and distance people
D. people like imitating others’ dressing style

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项.
Now students' English handwriting gets worse and worse. That makes their teachers feel worried. Is your English handwriting beautiful? 36
Use paper that lines.
Using paper that has lines can keep on writing straight when you write English words or sentences. Those lines on the paper can help you write words in the right size. 37 And make sure those capital letters are written properly.
Slow down.
If your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. For some kids, going slower makes the handwriting clear. If you write too fast, it's hard for you to stop where you should, and even worse, you may make more mistakes."
38
When you hold your pencil in the correct way, writing is much easier. Some kids press down really hard when they write. That makes the writing not nice. Try to relax yourself and don't hold the pencil so hard. Let your writing appear nice and clean. 39
Draw more pictures.
Drawing can improve your handwriting. You need to use the skills to control your pencil better when you are drawing pictures. Even though you have no choice to draw at school, you can practice by yourself at home.
40 Imagine you are a world-famous movie star or a well-known sports player, what do you do when your fans run up to you? Give them your autographs(亲笔签名),of course!
A. Hold your pencil right.
B. Make your handwriting nice.
C. Handwriting is very important.
D. Be sure to fill the lined space completely.
E. If not, here are four suggestions that really work.

To whom it may concern,
I’m one of your customers. I ordered a set of Bookworm Series on your website two weeks ago, but I didn’t receive them until yesterday.

I’m sorry to have received such poor service, and I believe I have every right to ask you to deal with this problem. I hope that you either return my money or deliver a new set of books to me. Besides, I’d like to be informed of the process of your dealing with my complaint.
Looking forward to your reply.
