If anyone who has ridden a horse for any length of time told you they have never felt any fear, they would be dishonest. You may prefer to call it “respect” instead of fear, but it’s always a fact that the 1，000-pound or so animal you are sitting on is, physically, more powerful than you are.
A bad experience, usually something that cannot be avoided no matter what the rider does, can turn healthy respect to fear. Once a rider has been physically hurt, it will take him/her a while to rebuild confidence. The old idea promised that if you just got right back on again, everything would be fine. However, suppressing(抑制) fear seldom works. Besides, suppressing fear doesn’t help to tell the rider to “just get over it”．
Fear is usually related to the rider’s skill level. The best way to overcome riding fears is to work on developing good riding skills. Having good riding skills gives the rider the confidence that he or she has the ability to ride a horse and to deal with anything the horse might do. Riders also need to develop habits that allow them to stay mentally and emotionally calm in a relaxed way when their horse becomes excited or frightened. Their partners also have to keep calm in order to bring the other back to that state.
It is hard to get past your fear when you work by yourself. Finding an experienced instructor who knows your confidence crisis(危机) is important. You need someone who understands how to back up and find the point where you are comfortably riding. Having the right horse can also be important when you are learning to ride horse and trying to rebuild confidence. We are fortunate here at Meredith Manor to have 130 to 150 horses to choose from when our instructors sit down to make weekly horse assignment(分配) for each learner.

A
I’d been thinking of taking a course on scuba-diving(水肺潜水) for months, but wasn’t sure because I was afraid of snakes—sea snakes. Just thinking about it made me sick.
But then, I wanted to know why people loved it so much. They all said that under the sea was like a totally different world, yet a beautiful one. And because of that, I decided to take the risk and try to face my fear.
So, after taking a private course from my diving instructor, Mbak Vita, I went to Sepa Island with her, to take the final exam.
First dive, 12 meters in depth. “What am I doing？” I asked myself. “What if something bad happened？” I tried hard not to panic and told myself to keep a good thought, “It’s gonna be a wonderful experience. Just do it！” Then I went down. My heart beat fast and my ears hurt as I went deeper. I followed Vita’s instructions closely until I felt comfortable to explore the sea.
Suddenly all around me was green. It felt like I was living in a green world! I saw some corals(珊瑚), big ones, and lots of beautiful fish hiding in the sand.
I was enjoying the beauty all around me when my instructor waved at me with her hand holding a pink flipper(橡胶蹼). “That flipper looks familiar，” I thought. Yes! That was my flipper! I didn’t realize that my right flipper had managed to get away from my right foot!
So, that was the first dive. In total, we dove 5 times in 2 days. We managed to dive up to 18 meters in depth. The next dives were smooth and for sure I didn’t lose my flipper! I was so happy to see different types of fish swimming in front of me as if I was invisible(不可见的)．It was indeed so beautiful and peaceful down there. Now I can see why people love diving under the sea.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。作者主要讲述了自己第一次下海潜水的经历。
1．How did the author feel about learning scuba-diving at first?
A．Uncertain. B．Excited.
C．Comfortable. D．Disappointed.
A 解析：细节理解题。由第一段中的I’d been thinking...wasn’t sure because I was afraid of snakes可知，作者怕蛇，因此对是否参加潜水课程犹豫不定。
2．What does the underlined word “panic” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A．Feel tired and sleepy.
B．Keep cool and relaxed.
C．Keep quiet and patient.
D．Feel nervous and worried.
D 解析：词义猜测题。由画线词前面作者问自己的问题What am I doing？和What if something bad happened？以及下文中的keep a good thought...Just do it可知，作者内心紧张、担忧，但努力克服这种感觉，给自己加油打气。
3．What happened during the author’s first dive?
A．She saw a sea snake.
B．A flipper fell off her foot.
C．The sea water turned green.
D．She lost her instructor in the sea.
B 解析：细节理解题。由第四段中的First dive, 12 meters in depth.以及倒数第二段中的my right flipper had managed to get away from my right foot可知，作者第一次在海底潜水时，右脚穿的橡胶蹼脱落了。
4．What would be the best title for the text?
A．A Pleasant Trip to the Beach
B．My First Experience with Scuba-diving
C．Why a Person Starts Scuba-diving
D．How Scuba-diving Affects My Life
B 解析：标题归纳题。作者在文章开头两段介绍了学习潜水的原因：想知道为什么许多人喜爱潜水，为海底世界所痴迷。接下来主要讲述了作者参加完潜水课程，进行第一次实地潜水的经历。因此，B项作标题最能概括文章内容。
B
Certain countries have taken strict action on smoking by completely banning it. However, people across the world still do not take it seriously. Around the world, about 10 million cigarettes are bought in a minute, 15 billion are sold each day, and over 5，000 billion are produced and used per year.
If people out on the streets or in front of supermarkets smoke openly, others passing by these smokers will breathe the smoke unwillingly, which can increase their risks of getting health problems unfortunately. In fact, one little cigarette contains about 7，000 chemicals, 69 of which have been proven to cause cancers. Cigarette smoke without doubt does no good to humans. Worldwide tobacco(烟草) causes 6 million deaths per year, and that means there is one death every 5 seconds.
Cigarettes are made from tobacco leaves. They originally take in all the carbon from the air as they grow. When you smoke them, you’re just returning the carbon to the air. Thus, cigarettes increase the detrimental chemicals in the air that finally damage the quality of the air. To tell the truth, the air pollution caused by cigarettes is 10 times greater than that by cars.
I have already made sure that smoking pollutes the air, but unfortunately, the damage to the environment does not stop there. It’s estimated that 1.69 billion pounds of cigarette butts(烟头) become rubbish each year. The rubbish can almost be found everywhere, which is the most ignored problem of the cigarettes. About 2 million of these cigarette butts are found in water, which results in the death of some animals. The cigarette butts that are thrown away carelessly can be dangerous to animals both on land and in the water.
The only measure that we can take to improve this situation is to stop smoking and more importantly, to stop littering(乱扔) cigarette butts. Take care of yourself and take care of the environment by putting a stop to smoking.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇议论文。作者主要论述了吸烟对身体及环境的危害并呼吁人们戒烟。
5．What does the author want to show by mentioning the numbers in the first paragraph?
A．Smoking is not easy to ban.
B．Cigarettes are sold well worldwide.
C．People spend too much on smoking each year.
D．Many people haven’t realized the necessity of stopping smoking.
D 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段的Certain countries have taken strict action on smoking by completely banning it. However, people across the world still do not take it seriously.可知，作者在此段用数字论述主要是为了表明：很多人还没有意识到戒烟的必要性。
6．What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?
A．The chemicals included in cigarettes.
B．The health problems caused by smoking.
C．The importance of avoiding smoking passively.
D．The negative effects of smoking on human health.
D 解析：段落大意题。根据第二段的内容可知，本段主要讲的是无论是被动吸烟还是主动吸烟，都会对人的身体造成不利影响。
7．What does the underlined word “detrimental” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A．Rare. B．Harmful.
C．Major. D．Different.
B 解析：词义猜测题。根据第三段画线词后的that finally damage the quality of the air可知，香烟会使空气中“有害的”化学物质增加，这些化学物质最终会破坏空气质量。
8．The most unnoticed problem about cigarettes is that cigarette butts ________．
A．pollute the water
B．cause too much rubbish
C．are dropped everywhere
D．lead to many animals’ death
C 解析：细节理解题。根据第四段的The rubbish can almost be found everywhere, which is the most ignored problem of the cigarettes.可知，每年的烟头垃圾很多，而这些垃圾被乱扔是香烟问题中最容易被忽视的。

If anyone who has ridden a horse for any length of time told you they have never felt any fear, they would be dishonest. You may prefer to call it “respect” instead of fear, but it’s always a fact that the 1，000-pound or so animal you are sitting on is, physically, more powerful than you are.
A bad experience, usually something that cannot be avoided no matter what the rider does, can turn healthy respect to fear. Once a rider has been physically hurt, it will take him/her a while to rebuild confidence. The old idea promised that if you just got right back on again, everything would be fine. However, suppressing(抑制) fear seldom works. Besides, suppressing fear doesn’t help to tell the rider to “just get over it”．
Fear is usually related to the rider’s skill level. The best way to overcome riding fears is to work on developing good riding skills. Having good riding skills gives the rider the confidence that he or she has the ability to ride a horse and to deal with anything the horse might do. Riders also need to develop habits that allow them to stay mentally and emotionally calm in a relaxed way when their horse becomes excited or frightened. Their partners also have to keep calm in order to bring the other back to that state.
It is hard to get past your fear when you work by yourself. Finding an experienced instructor who knows your confidence crisis(危机) is important. You need someone who understands how to back up and find the point where you are comfortably riding. Having the right horse can also be important when you are learning to ride horse and trying to rebuild confidence. We are fortunate here at Meredith Manor to have 130 to 150 horses to choose from when our instructors sit down to make weekly horse assignment(分配) for each learner.

A
I’d been thinking of taking a course on scuba-diving(水肺潜水) for months, but wasn’t sure because I was afraid of snakes—sea snakes. Just thinking about it made me sick.
But then, I wanted to know why people loved it so much. They all said that under the sea was like a totally different world, yet a beautiful one. And because of that, I decided to take the risk and try to face my fear.
So, after taking a private course from my diving instructor, Mbak Vita, I went to Sepa Island with her, to take the final exam.
First dive, 12 meters in depth. “What am I doing？” I asked myself. “What if something bad happened？” I tried hard not to panic and told myself to keep a good thought, “It’s gonna be a wonderful experience. Just do it！” Then I went down. My heart beat fast and my ears hurt as I went deeper. I followed Vita’s instructions closely until I felt comfortable to explore the sea.
Suddenly all around me was green. It felt like I was living in a green world! I saw some corals(珊瑚), big ones, and lots of beautiful fish hiding in the sand.
I was enjoying the beauty all around me when my instructor waved at me with her hand holding a pink flipper(橡胶蹼). “That flipper looks familiar，” I thought. Yes! That was my flipper! I didn’t realize that my right flipper had managed to get away from my right foot!
So, that was the first dive. In total, we dove 5 times in 2 days. We managed to dive up to 18 meters in depth. The next dives were smooth and for sure I didn’t lose my flipper! I was so happy to see different types of fish swimming in front of me as if I was invisible(不可见的)．It was indeed so beautiful and peaceful down there. Now I can see why people love diving under the sea.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。作者主要讲述了自己第一次下海潜水的经历。
1．How did the author feel about learning scuba-diving at first?
A．Uncertain. B．Excited.
C．Comfortable. D．Disappointed.
A 解析：细节理解题。由第一段中的I’d been thinking...wasn’t sure because I was afraid of snakes可知，作者怕蛇，因此对是否参加潜水课程犹豫不定。
2．What does the underlined word “panic” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A．Feel tired and sleepy.
B．Keep cool and relaxed.
C．Keep quiet and patient.
D．Feel nervous and worried.
D 解析：词义猜测题。由画线词前面作者问自己的问题What am I doing？和What if something bad happened？以及下文中的keep a good thought...Just do it可知，作者内心紧张、担忧，但努力克服这种感觉，给自己加油打气。
3．What happened during the author’s first dive?
A．She saw a sea snake.
B．A flipper fell off her foot.
C．The sea water turned green.
D．She lost her instructor in the sea.
B 解析：细节理解题。由第四段中的First dive, 12 meters in depth.以及倒数第二段中的my right flipper had managed to get away from my right foot可知，作者第一次在海底潜水时，右脚穿的橡胶蹼脱落了。
4．What would be the best title for the text?
A．A Pleasant Trip to the Beach
B．My First Experience with Scuba-diving
C．Why a Person Starts Scuba-diving
D．How Scuba-diving Affects My Life
B 解析：标题归纳题。作者在文章开头两段介绍了学习潜水的原因：想知道为什么许多人喜爱潜水，为海底世界所痴迷。接下来主要讲述了作者参加完潜水课程，进行第一次实地潜水的经历。因此，B项作标题最能概括文章内容。
B
Certain countries have taken strict action on smoking by completely banning it. However, people across the world still do not take it seriously. Around the world, about 10 million cigarettes are bought in a minute, 15 billion are sold each day, and over 5，000 billion are produced and used per year.
If people out on the streets or in front of supermarkets smoke openly, others passing by these smokers will breathe the smoke unwillingly, which can increase their risks of getting health problems unfortunately. In fact, one little cigarette contains about 7，000 chemicals, 69 of which have been proven to cause cancers. Cigarette smoke without doubt does no good to humans. Worldwide tobacco(烟草) causes 6 million deaths per year, and that means there is one death every 5 seconds.
Cigarettes are made from tobacco leaves. They originally take in all the carbon from the air as they grow. When you smoke them, you’re just returning the carbon to the air. Thus, cigarettes increase the detrimental chemicals in the air that finally damage the quality of the air. To tell the truth, the air pollution caused by cigarettes is 10 times greater than that by cars.
I have already made sure that smoking pollutes the air, but unfortunately, the damage to the environment does not stop there. It’s estimated that 1.69 billion pounds of cigarette butts(烟头) become rubbish each year. The rubbish can almost be found everywhere, which is the most ignored problem of the cigarettes. About 2 million of these cigarette butts are found in water, which results in the death of some animals. The cigarette butts that are thrown away carelessly can be dangerous to animals both on land and in the water.
The only measure that we can take to improve this situation is to stop smoking and more importantly, to stop littering(乱扔) cigarette butts. Take care of yourself and take care of the environment by putting a stop to smoking.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇议论文。作者主要论述了吸烟对身体及环境的危害并呼吁人们戒烟。
5．What does the author want to show by mentioning the numbers in the first paragraph?
A．Smoking is not easy to ban.
B．Cigarettes are sold well worldwide.
C．People spend too much on smoking each year.
D．Many people haven’t realized the necessity of stopping smoking.
D 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段的Certain countries have taken strict action on smoking by completely banning it. However, people across the world still do not take it seriously.可知，作者在此段用数字论述主要是为了表明：很多人还没有意识到戒烟的必要性。
6．What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?
A．The chemicals included in cigarettes.
B．The health problems caused by smoking.
C．The importance of avoiding smoking passively.
D．The negative effects of smoking on human health.
D 解析：段落大意题。根据第二段的内容可知，本段主要讲的是无论是被动吸烟还是主动吸烟，都会对人的身体造成不利影响。
7．What does the underlined word “detrimental” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A．Rare. B．Harmful.
C．Major. D．Different.
B 解析：词义猜测题。根据第三段画线词后的that finally damage the quality of the air可知，香烟会使空气中“有害的”化学物质增加，这些化学物质最终会破坏空气质量。
8．The most unnoticed problem about cigarettes is that cigarette butts ________．
A．pollute the water
B．cause too much rubbish
C．are dropped everywhere
D．lead to many animals’ death

七选五
It happens every night—bedtime. But what if you’re not sleepy? Should you still go to bed and just lie there with your eyes wide open? 1.________ But don’t worry. Here are some steps you can take to help you fall asleep.
One thing that can help is talking to a parent about what you’re thinking about at bedtime. For example, if you’re nervous about taking a test, or upset about being teased at school, it can really help to tell somebody. 2.________
3．________ If there’s anything about your room that makes you feel uneasy or anxious at night, like a picture that looks strange in the dark, or a leaking bathroom tap, ask your parent to move or fix it. Make sure electronics are kept away from your bed as their lights and noise can make it harder for you to fall asleep.
If you’re often nervous around bedtime, doing certain things to calm yourself may help you fall asleep. Taking a warm bath, or listening to a bedtime story at least 30 minutes before bed may help you relax. It also helps to follow a bedtime routine and go to sleep at the same time every night. 4.________
In order to find the right solution for you, it’s important that you understand what exactly is keeping you up at night. 5.________ Your body will thank you for the effort.
A．Knowing that somebody has heard you can help ease your mind so that you can rest.
B．Calming music played at a low volume can help the stress flow out of your body.
C．It’s a problem that has been around as long as there have been people trying to sleep.
D．Take the time to think about the problem carefully.

Dear manager，
I am Li Ming. I visit Huangshan yesterday. I am writing to draw your attention for an impolite behavior: dropping garbage. It serious pollutes the environment and increases the risk of cleaning workers’ being injured, because of they have to pick up the garbage in the mountain. What’s more, it is damaging the image of them Chinese, because as a world-famous tourist attraction, it attracts many foreigner every day. I wonder whether your department could give a environmentally friendly garbage bag to every tourist at the entrance. At same time, tourists should be encouraged to raising environmental protection awareness and national pride. I believe that, with our efforts, our tourist attraction will become better and best.
Yours，
Li Ming
