     Emily and Madison were having a great time on their field trip. After a morning at the science museum
they went to their favorite fast food place. Emily got her food first. When Madison sat down next to her,
Emily couldn't believe her eyes. Madison had two hamburgers, three containers of French fries, an apple
pie, a soda, and a shake on her tray.
     "Why do you have so much food?" Emily asked. "I'm so tired of being really skinny (極瘦的)," Madison
said,"so I've decided to eat lots of food and try to gain weight."
     Trying to gain weight by stuffing (塞, 填) yourself with extra calories like Madison did is a bad idea. It
can make you sick if you're naturally short or thin- so just listen to your appetite (胃口) and eat only as
much as your body tells you to. Once in a while, a health problem can keep a kid from gaining weight. The
kid usually goes to a specialist who can check things out, or to a registered dietitian (飲食學(xué)家) who has
lots of tips on how to eat well. But most of the time, thin kids don't need to see a doctor or go on a special
diet.
     Here's another surprise. Kids who are thin need to exercise. A lot of people use exercise to keep their
weight under control or to lose weight. But exercise serves many other purposes, too. Moving around helps
you develop important skills and helps your body get stronger. And unless a kid has gone through puberty
(青春期), weight-lifting won't build bigger muscles. It also could hurt bones, joints, and muscles.
     You want to help your body, not hurt it. Treat it right and you'll grow and develop just the way you
should.

A. tell us that Emily was not pleased with Madison

A. eat as much as you want to every day
B. see a doctor as soon as possible
C. force yourself to eat more every day
D. eat as much as you can to gain weight
3. Which one of the following is TRUE according to this passage?
A. Only fat people need to exercise to lose weight.
B. Madison should have much food because she was thin.

　　HARROLD, Texas(August 15, 2008)－A tiny Texas district will allow teachers and staff members to carry concealed(隱藏)firearms to deter(威懾)and protect against school shootings when classes begin this month, provided the gun-toting(攜帶槍支的)employees follow certain requirements．

　　“The small community of Harrold in north Texas is a 30-minute drive from the Wilbarger County Sheriff's Office, leaving students and teachers without protection,” said David Thweatt, superintendent of the Harrold Independent School District．“The lone campus of the 110-student district sits near a heavily traveled highway, which could make it a target”, he argued．

　　“When the federal government started making schools gun-free zones, that's when all of these shootings started．Why would you put it out there that a group of people can't defend themselves?That's like saying 'Sic'em' to a dog,” Thweatt said in a story published Friday on the Fort Worth Star-Telegram's Web site．

　　Barbara Williams, a spokeswoman for the Texas Association of School Boards, said her organization did not know of another district with such a policy．Ken Trump, a Cleveland-based school security expert who advises districts nationwide, said Harrold is the first district with such a policy．

　　Trustees approved the policy change last year．For employees to carry a pistol, they must have a Texas license to carry a concealed handgun; must be authorized to carry by the district; must receive training in crisis management and hostile situations．

　　Officials researched the policy and considered other choices for about a year before approving the policy change, Thweatt said．The district also has other measures in place to prevent a school shooting, he said．

　　“The naysayers think(a shooting)won't happen here．If something were to happen here, I'd much rather be calling a parent to tell them that their child is OK because we were able to protect them,” Thweatt said．

　　Texas law outlaws firearms at schools unless specific institutions allow them．

　　It isn't clear how many of the 50 or so teachers and staff members will be armed this fall because Thweatt did not disclose that information, to keep it from students or potential attackers．

(1)

The Texas district will allow teachers and staff members to carry firearms if they ________．

[　　]

A．

deter and protect against school shootings．

B．

meet certain requirements．

C．

begin their classes this month．

D．

provide a gun-toting employee．

(2)

What can we infer from Thweatt's words?

[　　]

A．

It is wrong for the federal government to make schools gun-free zones．

B．

The federal government helps school shootings．

C．

A gun for the students is what “Sic'em” to a dog．

D．

It is necessary for a student to carry a gun．

(3)

The following statements about Harrold are right EXCEPT ________．

[　　]

A．

Harrold is the first district to allow teachers to carry guns．

B．

Harrold is a tiny district in Texas, which is a 30-minute drive from the Wilbarger County Sheriff's Office．

C．

The 50 or so teachers and staff members in Harrold will be armed this fall．

D．

Harrold also has other measures in place to prevent a school shooting．

(4)

The underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 probably means ________．

[　　]

A．

that's like asking a dog to chase something．

　　“Tear’em apart!” “Kill the fool!” “Murder the referee(裁判)!”

　　These are common remarks one may hear at various sporting events．At the time they are made, they may seem innocent enough．But let’s not kid ourselves．They have been known to influence behavior in such a way as to lead to real bloodshed．Volumes have been written about the way words affect us．It has been shown that words having certain connotations(含義)may cause us to react in ways quite foreign to what we consider to be our usual humanistic behavior．I see the term “opponent” as one of those words．Perhaps the time has come to delete it from sports terms．

　　The dictionary meaning of the term “opponent ”is “adversary”：“enemy” “one who opposes your interests．” Thus, when a player meets an opponent, he or she may tend to treat that opponent as an enemy．At such times, winning may control one’s intellect, and every action, no matter how gross(rude), may be considered acceptable．I recall an incident in a handball game when a referee refused a player’s request for a time out for a glove change because he did not consider them wet enough．The player stepped forward to rub his gloves across his wet T-shirt and then exclaimed．“Are they wet enough now?”

　　In the heat of battle, players have been observed to throw themselves across the court without considering the consequences that such a move might have on anyone in their way．I have also witnessed a player reacting to his opponent’s international and illegal blocking by deliberately hitting him with the ball as hard as he could during the course of play．Off the court, they are good friends．Does that make any sense? It certainly gives proof of a court attitude which departs from(goes against)normal behavior．

　　Therefore, I believe it is time we elevated(提升)the game to the level where it belongs therefore setting an example to the rest of the sporting world．Replacing the term “opponent” with “associate” could be an ideal way to start．

　　The dictionary meaning of the term “associate” is “colleague”; “friend”; “companion．” Reflect a moment! You may soon see and possibly feel the difference in your reaction to the term “associate” rather than “opponent．”

(1)

Which of the following statements best expresses the author’s view?

[　　]

A．

B．

He angrily hit the referee with a ball

C．

He claimed that the referee was unfair．

D．

He wet his gloves by rubbing them across his T-shirt

calling on players to use clean language on the court

raising the referee’s sense of responsibility

changing the attitude of players on the sports field

regulating the relationship between players and referees

　　Chocolate soap is supposed to be good for the skin．But it's not so good for the tongue．Unfortunately for the US soldiers of World War II, the chocolate bars the army gave them tasted like they were intended for use in the bath．

　　In the army's defense, it wasn't trying to win any cooking awards．In fact, it specifically ordered that its chocolate bars not be too delicious, so soldiers wouldn't eat them too quickly．These bars were created for survival, not taste．“They were awful,” John Otto, a former army captain in World War II said．“They were big, thick things, and they weren't any good．I tried 'em, but I had to be awful hungry after I tried them once．”

　　As unappealing as the chocolate bars were to some, others liked them．Samuel Hinkle, the chemist who created the chocolate bars, pointed out that the number of bars made were far greater than the army needed．“It soon became obvious that the generous American soldiers were sharing their valued possessions with their foreign friends, whether soldiers of other countries or local citizens．”

　　The bars turned many hungry Europeans into friends of the United States．“People wanted them,” said Otto．“You'd give them to kids．In some places they were very hungry．And they sure helped relax people about American soldiers．”

　　Otto said he never saw a European turn his or her nose up at the chocolate．“It was food,” he said．“At that time, everyone was very hungry．I saw German kids standing outside the U．S．a(chǎn)rmy kitchen．They weren't begging, just standing there very politely．When we were done, the kids would eat the food out of the garbage．They were that hungry．”

　　Other Europeans did not see chocolate until well after the war ended．“We didn't see any Americans where I was,” said Elizabeth Radsma, who was 25 years old when the Germans occupied her country, the Netherlands．“Even after the war, we saw only English．Maybe the Americans gave out some chocolate in the big cities, but we were only in a small town．Before the British, we saw only German soldiers．But chocolate? Don't make me laugh! Maybe in my dreams!”

　　A soldier in the field might have responded “Be careful what you wish for”－and then gratefully bit down on a chocolate bar, the only food available for miles．

(1)

What was the American soldiers' attitude towards the chocolate bars?

[　　]

A．

They were delicious．

B．

They tasted awful．

C．

They were necessary for survival．

D．

Too many of them were produced．

B．

C．

D．

European people regretted eating chocolate bars from the US soldiers．

(3)

The underlined expression “turn his or her nose up at” probably means ________．

[　　]

A．

reject

B．

demand

C．

receive

D．

smell

(4)

Why does the author mention the German kids' story?

[　　]

A．

To tell how friendly the American soldiers were．

B．

To describe the hunger in post-war Germany．

C．

To prove German kids could be very polite．

D．

(5)

the US soldiers handed out all of them to people in big cities

B．

the German soldiers kept them all for themselves

C．

the British soldiers didn't share them with the local people

D．
