What will the weather be like in the future? Some people say they can know the weather from animals.
If birds are flying high in the sky, there will be a nice day. When they sit in trees or stay close together, bad weather is on the way.

Chickens make a loud noise and run here and there when the rain is coming. Frogs will stay in the water and make a lot of noise, too. But on a nice day, they are quiet and jump out of the water. Turtles (海龜) often look for higher ground and cows like to lie down when the rain is on the way.

How green are you? Do you care about protecting the environment and saving energy? We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it does harm to our environment. Though we are young, we can still do something to help. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you. Remember these three words: Reduce, reuse and recycle.
REDUCE
Reduce means “use less.” Don’t waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment. Before we buy something new, think whether it is really necessary--- or maybe the old one will be just as good! When we do buy things, choose local produces if possible, and try not to buy too many things form abroad. It may cost a lot of money to bring them to us.
REUSE
Reuse means “use again.” Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that they last a long time. We should look after them so that they will last, and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Don’t use a paper cup or a paper bag. It’s better to use a china cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.
RECYCLE
Recycle means “change things into something else.” Although it takes energy to change something into something else, it’s better than throwing things away or burning them. Find out what can be recycled in your neighbourhood and take part in recycling programmes. We should also buy products made from recycled materials, such as recycled paper, to help save trees.
小題1:Why is it better to choose local products if possible?
A．Things from abroad do harm to our environment
B．Local products are much cheaper
C．To choose local products means that we love our country
D．Things from abroad aren’t necessary
小題2:According to the passage, when we find our clothes are out of fashion, what should we do?
A．Throw them away
B．If they are still suitable, keep them
C．Clean the floor with them
D．Give them to others and buy new ones
小題3:What is the helpful activity in our daily life?
A．To shop with plastic bags
B．To use paper cups
C．To collect old newspapers
D．To burn fallen leaves
小題4:According to the passage, which of the following is RIGHT?
A．We should learn to grow vegetables
B．People mustn’t produce waste any more
C．Children are too young to do anything to save energy.
D．The simplest everyday activities are important to protect our world.
小題5:Which of the following is WRONG according to this passage?
A．Always buy new things and throw away old ones
B．Use china cups instead of paper cups
C．Recycle something that can be recycled
D．Think first when we want to buy something

Having friends, and finding new friendships is an important developmental task for preteens and teens. While they have learned to play well with others during their childhood, developing independent friendships is a different thing. Preteens and teens will be allowed to use their own resources to decide whether to be someone’s friend or not, instead of being taught by their parents. Parents must give their teenagers some freedom in choosing who they want to hang out with.

Do you know how important it is to have breakfast? A study of 2,000 teenagers in the US showed that eating breakfast daily is helpful to young people.
According to the study, teenagers who eat breakfast weigh around 5 pounds less than teenagers who do not. Although they take in more calories (卡路里) in the morning, they are more active during the day because they have more energy. This means they burn more calories than non-breakfast eaters. The breakfast does not even have to be very healthy, as eating anything is better than nothing.
The study also showed that eating breakfast keeps teenagers feeling full for longer, so they will not eat too many snacks (零食) later in the day. This is good news as most popular snacks, like sweets and potato chips, are usually unhealthy and full of calories.
Another big advantage of eating breakfast is that it helps teenagers do better at school.This is because it gives them more energy to keep their attention in class.
What's more, a study in the UK showed that adults (成年人) who eat breakfast daily put on less weight and also perform better at work.
Whatever your age is, take time to have breakfast every day.
小題1:The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 means that _________.
A．teenagers should eat something for breakfast
B．breakfast helps teenagers do better at school
C．breakfast must be healthy with lots of calories
D．the energy makes teenagers active the whole day
小題2:Having breakfast daily makes the teenagers _________.
A．eat fewer snacksB．pat on more weight
C．relax themselvesD．burn less calories
小題3:The passage is mainly about _________.

Hello ,everyone!
Thank you very much for coming to this concert. I hope you have enjoyed the performance. As you may know, all the performers have given their time to help us.
This concert is to raise money for children in Africa. Every day hundreds of children in Africa die because they don’t have enough to eat. There are two reasons. First, there is no work for the children’s parents. Second, the governments in many African countries do not have the money to help the poor.
Most African countries are poor. The land is not good for growing food and the weather is also bad for farming. The Feed Africa Fund spends millions of dollars every year on food for poor people in Africa. This money comes from people like you---- kind, generous people who do not want to see children die from hunger.
Every dollar you give this evening will go to the Feed Africa Fund. Just one dollar can buy enough food to feed a family of four for three days. Think about it: only one dollar can feed four people for three days.
How much do you spend on food every day? Ten dollars? Twenty dollars? I am sure you can spend a little less on your own food so that you have a few dollars for the Feed Africa Fund.
Please be kind and generous! Give your money with a helping hand. Your money can make a difference in others’ life and yours. Thank you!
小題1:In the speech , the biggest problem in many African countries is______.

China is a nation with a rich culture in handwriting. “Even though the computer is widely used today, Chinese people should not forget the skill of writing with hands,” said a Chinese government official(官員).
Nowadays, the computer has become a very useful tool to help people to write. As people use computers more often than before, many people have forgotten how to write Chinese characters (字). People often make a lot of mistakes in writing.
At present, China is trying to help pupils and teachers to improve their writing with the help of information technology. With the technology, it is hoped that teachers can write their teaching contents (內(nèi)容) on the blackboard and students can respond by writing, too.
The Chinese character test shows that nowadays, many college students’ handwriting has become worse. Many college students do not know how to compose (組成) words or sentences in Chinese character in the right way. Not only kids, many adults also have met the same problem. They might be able to tell the general form of a certain character. However, if you ask them to spell out the character in detail (詳細(xì)地), they can’t. On the other hand, they can easily type out the character on a computer.
In the national language teaching course, we can solve this problem with the use of certain technologies. Actually, apart from（除了）technology, there is a lot that we can do. For example, we may ask students to finish their homework by writing with hands instead of typing.
小題1:People often make a lot of mistakes in writing Chinese characters because ________.
A．they use computers too often and many people have forgotten how to write them
B．Chinese characters are too difficult to write
C．they are using too much English
D．the country forgets to stress the importance of the Chinese writing
小題2:The problem of college students’ handwriting is that _________.
A．they don’t know how to write a Chinese character in the right way
B．they only know how to type out the character on a computer
C．they can write correctly with the help of information technology
D．they don’t know how to make up words or sentences in Chinese characters correctly
小題3:How is China trying to help students and teachers to improve their writing?
A．By punishing people who can’t write correctly.
B．By controlling people’s use of computers.
C．By using information technology.
D．By asking them to write everything with hands.
小題4:What does the underlined word “respond” in the third paragraph mean?
A．抄寫(xiě)B．應(yīng)答C．修改D．反對(duì)
小題5:What’s the main idea of this passage?
A．Computers are harmful(對(duì)……有害的) to our handwriting.
B．How we can write good Chinese characters.
C．Chinese people should not forget the skill of writing with hands.
D．Don’t forget our mother language.

Can plants eat people? Probably not, but there are many plants that eat meat. Some of them are big. And they can eat small animals. One famous meat-eating plant is the Venus flytrap（捕蠅草）.
The Venus flytrap is a very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its leaves are like the pages of a book. They can open and close very quickly. Inside the leaves, there are three small hairs. If a fly touches one of the hairs, the leaf closes quickly. The fly cannot get out. In about half an hour, the leaf presses the fly until it is dead.
