When the family watched the Super Bowl, they always had a party. Jack even stayed up late that night! Jack’s favourite team made it to the Super Bowl this year. It seldom happened. This year would be special. His favourite team was going to win for sure! And even if they didn’t, there was still a lot of great food and the company (陪伴) of family, relatives and friends. Jack’s mum made meatballs and sandwiches for the party. His dad spent most of the morning smoking some meat for everyone to eat. Uncle Adam brought some chicken, Aunt Rachel brought delicious cakes and juice, Dad’s friend from work. Luke, brought chips. When the game started, everyone was excited. They cheered (欢呼) at the great plays and groaned (叹息) at the bad plays. Halftime was a fun show. That was the perfect time to get some of Aunt Rachel’s cakes. After that, the game was back on. As the game wound down, Jack’s excitement grew. It was closer and closer to his team winning. Then, everyone went crazy. His team won the Super Bowl! They were champions! Jack felt it was the most exciting day of the week. 26. When did Jack’s family love to watch football? A. On Mondays. B. On Wednesdays C. On Thursdays. D. On weekends. 27. Who brought chicken to the party? A. Jack’s mum. B. Jack’s uncle. C. A friend of Jack’s dad. D. Jack’s aunt. 28. Jack felt it was the most exciting day of the week because________. A. it was his first time to watch the Super Bowl B. his favourite team won the game that evening C. the fun show halftime of the game was perfect D. he made a lot of delicious food with his parents C Nowadays, some schools teach traditional subjects like math, geography, and language, but they also teach life skills(技能). Life skills classes teach students how to keep their rooms clean and tidy, take care of their health, and have healthy personal relationships(关系). Some people say these classes prepare students better for life in the real world. But other people say these classes aren’t important. Students should only pay attention to how to get into university. What do you think? Some people like the idea of teaching life skills in schools. They believe that life skills classes give students what they need to know to live on their own, whether they go to college or get a job after high school. They help prepare students for everyday real-life situations, such as cooking a meal and managing money. Many of these classes also teach “soft skills”, like how to listen and talk to people in a positive(积极的) way, which are important in the workplace and in personal relationships. As students learn more life skills, they become more confident in themselves. On the other hand, some people argue that there is no time for more subjects at school. They think it’s more important to teach traditional subjects than life skills at school. Many students choose not to take life skills classes because these classes don’t improve their chances of getting into university. People also think it should be the job of parents to teach their kids what they need to know at home. Personally, I think we already learn many life skills while doing traditional subjects. For example, we learn teamwork by doing group work, and organizing(安排) our homework teaches us how to use our time well. I believe all schools should teach life skills. It would not need too much work because there is no need to teach them separately(分开地) from traditional subjects. This will make sure that students are better prepared for college and work when they leave school. 29. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The different ways to live on your own. B. The school experience of learning life skills. C. The situation that calls for learning life skills. D. The advantages of learning life skills in school. 30. The writer probably agrees that ________. A. schools need to give more time to life skills classes B. parents’ first job is to teach their children life skills C. students can learn life skills in their traditional subjects D. teachers should learn life skills together with their students 31. What might be the best title for the passage? A. Life Skills: How Do Students Build Them? B Life Skills: Should School Teach Them? C. Life Skills: Who Should Learn Them? D. Life Skills: Are They Important? D Are you someone who enjoys listening to music? If so, you’re doing something good for your mind and body. Scientists believe that music has something to do with people's feelings. Valorie N. Salimpoor has studied music and the human brain(大脑) at McGill University. She has found that listening to pleasant music causes healthy changes in the brain. These changes make people feel excited, happy, and satisfied. Researchers in Germany have found that listening to music can boost a person’s mood. In other words, music can cheer you up when you’re feeling sad. Music can also lower stress and help you worry less. That’s according to the scientists from the USA. Music is also good for your body. For example, a study called “From Music-Beat(节拍) to Heart-Beat” showed that music can lower blood pressure(血压), which is good for your health. What’s more, music gets the blood pumping(血液循环) when you exercise. A group of scientists from Spain and Brazil have found that people run faster and longer when they listen to music. Music can help you bike faster too. British scientists studied bikers who listened to music with a fast beat. While riding, the faster the beat was, the faster the bikers rode. How else is music good for your health? It can help you get better sleep. That’s according to a research study called “Music Improves(改善) Sleep Quality in Students”. This study looked at college students who had a difficult time sleeping. Some of the students were told to listen to relaxing classical music before bedtime. Those students slept better and even felt happier. Scientists in Finland, England, and the United States have shown that music helps students learn. Listening to music can help you when you’re learning something new. It can also help you better remember what you’ve learned. It can even help when you take a test, according to a British study. Students who listened to background(背景的) music during a test answered more test questions. They got more of the answers correct too. Music is more than a beautiful art form. It can make your lives better. It can improve your mood, your health, and even your grades. In short, it’s good for you. So make time for music, and you won’t be sorry! 32. The words “boost a person’s mood” in Paragraph 2 probably mean “________”. A. help a person feel better B. make a person relax C. change a person’s life D. keep a person’s brain healthy 33. What can we learn from the research study in Paragraph 4? A. Music helps college students understand the importance of sleep. B. A certain kind of music improves sleep for college students. C. College students are too busy to listen to music at night. D. College students listen to classical music the most. 34. If there is background music playing during a test, students will ________. A. be more worried B. fall asleep during the test C. get their blood pumping D. increase their test scores 35. What is the writer’s main purpose(目的) in writing this passage? A. To teach people how to enjoy music. B. To suggest that people listen to music. C. To describe the scientists’ love of music. D. To show the importance of music in students’ lives. 四、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（共10分，每小题2分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 A Young Cheese Maker 16-year-old Pat Tulloch has a different hobby. She makes cheese on the family farm in Australia. She began by making yoghurt （酸奶）with her mother when she was little. Then she started watching her father’s workers make cheese. When she was ten, she made some cheese herself for the first time. “It wasn’t great at the beginning,” she says, “but the workers told me what I was doing wrong. I tried hard day and night, and I slowly got better.” Pat always needs good milk for her cheese but she doesn’t have to buy it. Her parents keep about 100 cows on their farm. Pat can just ask them when she needs more. Last year, Pat’s neighbour gave her a young cow to keep and look after, but it doesn’t produce milk to make cheese yet. Pat helped her family created many kinds of cheese. This year they won a prize for one of them. “Last month we started selling cheese in New Zealand. People there read about our prize in a food magazine. Soon we’re going to do some advertisements （广告）, too.” Pat’s next idea is to post some recipes （烹饪法）for cooking with cheese on the Internet such as having cheese with eggs for breakfast. She also thinks that people can eat cheese with pasta （意大利面）. “I hope a restaurant might buy some one day”, she says. But right now Pat is still at school. “Making cheeses is fun and winning a prize for it is great, but doing well in my studies is more important now.” 36.
