And on newspapers, advertising now is 8 quickly.” Mr. Trotta said. “Then people won’t get their neighborhood news anymore.” said Andy. Mr. Trotta nodded and sighed. “We held out as long as we could, 9 there’s just no way.” Sadly, Andy 10 himself to make the head up to say good-bye. A week later, Andy wondered if his customers 11 The Gazette as much as he did. He thought of a way to find out. Andy started out with his 12 . First stop: Mr. Jonas, 17 Oak.

Teens aged 14-17. C. Teens with their parents. D. Anybody. 22. How many times can one take part in the group at most? A. Once. B. Twice. C. Ten times. D. Twelve times. 23. What’s probably the purpose of the support group? A. To teach teenagers some living skills. B. To offer people some snacks and drinks. C. To help children get better grades in exams. D. To help teens reduce anxiety and learn to relax. B The school convenience store is a place where many students enjoy a snack and a chat. However, it may become a thing of the past. China’s educational and health authorities have banned(禁止) convenience stores in all kindergartens, primary, middle and high schools across the country. The rule has taken effect since April 1. It requires that administrators (管理人员) should keep record of each meal and solve any food problems as soon as possible. Parents can also eat with students at school canteens and give suggestions to the school on food safety, it said. The rule raised heated debates. Many students were sad about the ban. “Without convenience stores, our school life will be less interesting,” a student named Fang, from a senior high school in Hangzhou, told Qianjiang Evening News. “We won't be able to have different flavored drinks or desserts.” However, many parents expressed support for the rule. The father of a junior school student in Beijing, told the Global Times that “cheap, low-quality snacks sold at these stores are harmful to children's health.” “Students now rush to shops to buy snacks as soon as a class is over, which affects the normal teaching order,” he said. The move comes among food health concerns at public schools and is designed to meet the nutritional needs of students, The Beijing News reported. The rule also requires schools to monitor students who may be obese(肥胖的), and to make sure they follow a healthy diet. And in fact many foreign countries have their own ways to make students eat healthily. For example, many parents in Australia volunteer in schools, sometimes in canteens, according to China National Radio. These parents, at least, do their best to see that their children are served nutritious food. In Japan, there is “food and nutrition education”. Primary and middle school students eat lunch in their classrooms, where they learn about diet and nutrition, and Japan's food culture, reported City Lab, an internet magazine hosted by The Atlantic. They also take turns serving meals to each other, cleaning up, and recycling. 24.The school convenience store is . A. a place for students to get snacks B. a time for students to have a break C. a time for students to talk D. a place for students to get together 25. We can learn from the passage that . A. All students like the ban. B. Some cheap and unhealthy snacks are sold in school convenience stores. C. School convenience stores don’t affect normal teaching order. D. Teachers don't support the rule. 26. How are the paragraphs of the passage organized? A. B. C. D. C More and more customers have become worried about the environment, so many companies have begun working to develop paper bottles. Paper bottles have many advantages. Perhaps the most important is that they can be easily recycled. Paper bottles also weigh less than glass or plastic ones and they’ll require less energy to produce and to move around. Since paper is soft and easy to be shaped, companies can design their bottles to take almost any shape they choose. A company called Paboco has been working with many large companies to develop paper bottles. The companies are creating their own bottle designs, but they’re sharing what they learn to speed up the development of paper bottle technology. Clearly, one of the biggest challenges is keeping a paper bottle from leaking (漏). Many companies are lining (做内衬) their bottles with a thin sheet of plastic. Though bottle makers may say they can be removed, many recycling programs don’t have the right machines to produce them. A company named Diageo has just announced the first paper bottle that is completely plastic - free. Instead of a plastic liner, a non - plastic (无塑料) coating will be used on the inside of the bottles. This should make the bottle fully recyclable. But even without the plastic, paper bottles aren’t perfect, which means more trees need to be cut down to make the bottles. There’re still lots of tests to be done before paper bottles can be used widely. But with so many companies working towards the same goal, it’s likely that we can expect to see paper bottles on store shelves in the near future. 27. What is the greatest advantage of paper bottles according to the passage? A. They are soft and can be easily shaped. B. They are lighter than plastic or glass ones. C. They can be moved around with less energy. D. They are easy to recycle and environmentally friendly. 28. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Many companies. B. Paper bottles. C. Sheets of plastic. D. Bottle makers. 29. How did Diageo deal with the problem of leaking according to Paragraph 4? A. By lining bottles with a thin sheet of plastic. B. By using a non-plastic coating inside the bottle. C. By designing new recyclable plastic bottle. D. By cutting down more trees to make the bottles. 30. What does the last paragraph mainly tell about? A. Many companies have produced the paper bottles widely. B. Paper bottles still need to be tested before appearing in stores. C. Paper bottles have taken the place of glass or plastic ones so far. D. People must see paper bottles on the store shelves in the near future. D Mr. and Mrs. March lived together with their four daughters. Amy was very shy. Beth loved being at home. Meg looked very pretty. Jo was tall and thin and she was a tomboy. Their home was always busy and full of noise and people. Next to them lived old Mr. Laurence and his grandson, Laurie. They lived in a very large and comfortable house. But it was a house without life.     One day, Joe saw Laurie standing at an upstairs window in his house and looking down at their garden. Jo’s sisters were playing in the snow there. They were throwing snowballs and having a lot of fun. But Laurie’s face was very sad. “Poor boy!” Jo thought. “He’s all alone. He needs some friends.” She couldn’t stop thinking about him. She wanted to go and see him, but how could she go to the house without an invitation? Then one snowy afternoon, she saw Laurie’s grandpa go out. This gave her an idea. She took a broom from the kitchen. “What are you going to do, Jo?” asked her sister Meg. “To clear the garden path.” Answered Jo. When Laurie saw Jo from the window, a big smile changed his pale, sad face. Jo laughed and shouted, ”How are you? Are you ill?” Laurie opened the window and said,” I’m better now, thank you. I had a bad cold and had to stay inside for a week”. “I’m sorry,” said Jo. “Are you bored?” “Yes, very.” he replied. “Don’t your friends come to visit you?” “No. But I don’t want to see anybody. Boys are noisy and they give me a headache.” “Girls are quiet.” “I don’t know any girls.” “You know us.” “That’s true! Can you come and visit me?” cried Laurie. “ I’m not quiet, but I’d like to come,” replied Jo. “I must ask Mother first.” She ran back into her house. A few minutes later, she returned and rang the bell on the door of laurie’s house. A servane took her upstairs. “Here I am!” she said brightly. “Mother sends her love and my sisters gave me this blancmange (牛奶冻) for you.” “That looks delicious,” Laurie said. He was very happy to see Jo. Jo looked around. There were lots of books on the shelves. “A nice room!” she said. “I can read to you if you like.” “No, let’s talk,” replied Laurie. “All right,” said Jo, “I can talk for hours. My sisters say I never know when to stop.” “You have three sisters-Amy, Beth and Meg.” Laurie continued. “How do you know this?” Jo was surprised. “You call each other’s names when you are in the garden. Sometimes I can see you all around the table with your mother. She has a very kind face. I like looking at her. I haven’t got a mother.” Jo felt sad when she heard this. “Why don’t you come and visit us?” she said, “It isn’t good for you to stay in this house all the time.” “Thank you. I’d like to come very much.” Said Laurie. “We know all our neighbours except you.” Jo said, “ I’m glad we’re friends now.” She told him about all the interesting things in her life. She said, “Besides (除了……之外) plays, I also love books.” Laurie loved books too, and offered to show her the library in the house. The library was a wonderful room. Jo loved it. “Wow!” she said, “All those books!” Laurie said, “A person needs more than books.” 31.From the first paragraph, we know _________.

It lasts several minutes and you can be woken up easily. Stage 2. 37 you wont wake up easily. The slow eye movements continue and your brain waves slow down even more. Your body temperature goes down and your heart rate slows down. Stage 3 is known as deep sleep. It is more difficult for you to be woken up. 38 So all those sleepwalkers out there may not actually remember doing anything strange in their sleep the next day. Finally, you move into REM （rapid eye movement）. 39 This is caused by certain brain activity. You may have vivid dreams during this stage. Your waves are more active, and they’re similar to when you're awake. It's easier to wake you up, but you may feel sleepy. Once your REM phase is over, the cycle starts all over again. Stage 1 and 2 are considered light sleep, while Stage 3 is deep sleep. 40 You’ll go through about four or five of these cycles each night, depending on how long you sleep. A. This is when your sleep becomes a bit deeper B. Have you ever wondered how exactly sleep works? C. A complete cycle lasts between 90 and 110 minutes. D.

Tea is drunk by the largest number of people in the world. Tea, as well as silk and porcelain, began to be known by the world over a thousand years ago and has been an important Chinese export since then. Tea has a history of over 4,000 years and China is the home of tea. In ancient China, tea was used as a kind of medicine, while nowadays people drink tea daily. Longjing, Pu’er, Wulong and Tieguanyin are all famous tea. Thanks to the climate and soil in Fujian, Zhejiang and Yunnan, tea is produced mainly in these provinces. The word for tea in different languages came from Chinese, like ‘cha’i’ in Russian. And the Japanese character for tea is written exactly the same as it is in Chinese. Now, tea culture is a part of Chinese culture, which includes tea planting, tea leaf picking, tea making, tea drinking and so on.

I didn’t realize that teamwork is much more important than personal performance until I lost the soccer match. Last week, our team lost the game in the “City Mayor Cup”. I still remember clearly when I had the ball on the field, coming up to the goal. I was in a better position to pass the ball instead of shooting. One of my teammates was in the best position to shoot and score. But I really wanted to score the goal myself and win the match. I wanted to be the hero. I shot but failed. I was so upset and it felt like a big black cloud was hanging over my head. After the match, I apologized to my teammates and my coach. They didn’t blame me. But my coach’s words stayed with me. He said, “The game is not all about winning or losing.” The experience made me grow up and taught me the importance of teamwork. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
