Passage10(2013江蘇揚州廣陵區(qū)，C)
Spring will soon be upon us and a new term is here. All over the world spring is the season of new life ： flowers bloom,baby animals are born,and the weather becomes warmer.During this time of year,people usually walk around with a spring in their steps and a feeling of fresh beginnings.However,for a fresh beginning it takes more than the bright colors and fresh air of spring.We need to look at ourselves,set new goals,and decide how to improve ourselves.
In England people usually do this on the first day of the year. We look at the past year and think about what we’d like to change or improve in our lives,and we call this a New Year's resolution These can be anything from improving one^ health through exer?cise or cutting out bad habits,to studying harder for better grades or trying to find a good work or life balance.
Luckily,we don't have to wait for the beginning of a new year to try and become better people. We can do this whenever we like. The milestone of a new term is just a good place to start.
Sometimes it’s difficult to take the first step in achieving newly set goals,hut an old saying is to begin is to be half-way there，T.I agree with this because taking on a new task or changing habits can seem daunting at first,but once we begin,they get easier.For exam?ple,spending less time on QQ or playing video games and more time studying or communicating face-to-face can be difficult habits to change at first. But once we settle into the new routine and start to see the results,it's difficult not to wonder why we didn't do it sooner.
The trick with deciding on a resolution for a new term is not to set unrealistic targets. If we do this,it's easy lo lose motivation because the end goal seems so far away.Try to make many siTiaH goals you want to reach on the way to your ultimate (最終的) goal.This way,you can see your progress easily.
l.In Paragraph One,the writer wants to tell us that spring is a time .
A. to take a walk around outdoors
B. to enjoy fresh air and bright colors
C. to set goals for a fresh beginning for animals
D. to have babies
2. Which of the following might the writer agree with according to (根據(jù)) Paragraph Four?
A. Be swift to hear,slow to speak.
B. A11 that ends well is well.
C. Well begun is half done.
D. A11 roads lead to Rome.
3. What does the underlined word “daunting” probahly mean in Par- agraph Four?
A. changeable B. difficult C.lovely D. dangerous 4. What does the writer want to tell us in the last paragraph?
A. If you see no progress,youUl be sad.
B. Whatever happens,stick to (堅持) your dreams.
C. Never lose heart when meeting with difficulties.
D. Your goals should be realistic and small.

Passage 10(2013江蘇蘇州常熟，C)
Do you have a mobile phone? Do you send text messages to your friends and family?
Text messaging or “texting” is becoming very pop- ular.But,scientists have discovered that texting can give us problems with our hands.Be careful!Too much texting can cause swelling (腫脹) in our thumbs and wrists. Our thumbs are not made for pushing small buttons,over and over. Scientists call this problem RSI.
We spoke to a doctor called Harriet Wilson,who treats many pa?tients with RSI. She said we needed to see how much time we were spending in typing text messages. If we are spending more than 10— 15 minutes at once,we could have problems in the future.
We also talked with Dr Harjeet Deepa who treats RSI patients. He told us that the youngest patient he had treated was a five-year- old girl.She wasnH doing well at school,so her parents took her for treatrnent.lt was found that she had such bad RSI in her hands,she couldn’t hold a pencil.
As mobile phones develop,they are getting smaller with buttons closer together. Texting with a smaller phone is worse than using a larger phone with bigger buttons. Using a computer keyboard and pla?ying video games can also cause the same problem.So,more and more people couldn’t find themselves with RSI.
Many university students and teenagers have RSI,as they do not know the risks (冒險) of spending so much time using computers,video games and mobile phones.If we don't do something about this,too many young people could grow up in terrible pain.
1. What causes the problem RSI?
A. People make too many phone calls.
B. Texting is becoming very popular.
C. People type too many text messages.
D. Our thumbs were made for pushing buttons.
2. The little girl who Dr Harjeet Deepa treated couldn’t hold a pencil because .
A .she didn't go to school
B. she was only five years old
C. she had no thumbs at all
D. she suffered a lot from RSI You can probably read this passage in a .
A. comic strip B. story book
C. science book D. detective story
4. From the passage we know .
A. it is better to use a larger phone with bigger buttons
B. it is worse to spend less time typing the text messages
C. using the computer keyboard will never cause the problem RSI
D. university students who have RSI know it's dangerous to do too much texting
