Of course, there have always been people who have looked for adventure (冒险)-those who have climbed the highest mountains or explored unknown parts of the world. Now, however, there are people who look for a quick pleasure from a dangerous activity, which may only last a few minutes or even seconds. I think bungee jumping is a good example of such an activity. Yet jump from a high place(maybe a bridge or a hot air balloon (气球) 200 meters above the ground with an elastic rope (弹力绳 ) to your ankles (踝).You fall at up to 150 kilometers an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground. It is said that 2, 000, 000 people around the world have now tried bungee jumping. Most people think that other activities, such as jumping from the tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high rocks (岩石) are as dangerous as bungee jumping. Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some scientists think it is because life in modern societies has become safe and boring. Now life has little excitement. They buy food in shops and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they are ill. The answer for some of these people is to look for danger in activities as bungee jumping. 41. How many people have now tried bungee jumping? A. Two hundred. B. Two thousand. C.Two million. D.Two billion 42.

It's an important part of a student's schooldays. It's the best way to go over what you have learned in class. And it helps you understand more. Luckily, here are several suggestions for you to make homework easy. Be sure you know what to do. Write down what you should do in your notebook if you need to. Don't be afraid to ask questions about it. It's much easier to ask the teacher after class than to try to remember later. Make a homework plan. Most middle school students have one or two hours of homework a night. If it is a heavy homework day, you may need to spend even more time. It's a good idea to make a homework timetable, especially if you are going to do sports or other activities after school. Watch where you work. A bedroom, study or any room where you can get away from noise is good for you to do your homework. But don't study on your comfortable bed, or you might fall asleep there. Take a break. It's difficult to hold your attention for too long. So take some breaks while doing your homework. Sitting for too long without relaxing will make you feel very tired. Taking a 15-minute break every hour is a good idea for most people. Get help when you need it. Sometimes even though you are listening carefully in class, some subjects seem too hard. The first person to ask for help is your teacher. He or she may be able to work with you before or after school and explain things more clearly. Your classmates may also be able to give you a hand. However, this might not give you the results you want. Lots of students understand something well but are not able to explain it. 61.How many suggestions does the passage mention? 62.What should you do if you have heavy homework? 63.Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese. 64.Why can’t students sit for too long? 65.Please give a proper title to the passage. （二） Carol and Linda took a trip to San Francisco last July.
