As we went back and forth about what to do next, our girls jumped in and told us exactly what they wanted to do. “We want to go to the butterfly museum,” said Emily and Hanna. As soon as we walked into the main area of the museum, we saw thousands of beautiful butterflies. They all flapped their colorful wings. My girls were jumping up and down, and I knew we had made the right decision to come to the museum. They were having so much fun. I turned to our museum tour guide because I was curious (好奇的), and asked, “How long do butterflies live?” She said: “About ten days.” “What can butterflies do in ten days?” I asked. The guide stopped, looked at me, and said, “They make the world a more beautiful place.” “Wow,” I said, “I never thought about butterflies like that. Thank you.” After we said goodbye, I couldn’t stop thinking about what the guide had said. She was right. We all have something to offer the world with the time we have. When we focus our gifts on taking care of each other every day, we can make a difference. Appreciate (欣赏) the impact you can have on your family, friends, co-workers and neighbors. Like a butterfly, you have your own way of making the world more beautiful for everyone. 21. Where did the family finally decide to go? A. To a butterfly museum. B. To another island. C.

If sports aren’t going to be your future, then why should you play them? Why should you train every day? Why should you work hard and feel sore the next day? Wouldn’t it be better to forget sports and only pay attention to your lessons? In fact, there are a lot of reasons to play sports. First of all, sports are a great way to exercise. Exercising keeps you healthy and strong. It also helps you stay in a good condition. When you exercise, your body makes endorphins (内啡肽) which give you more energy and make you feel happier. Also, sports teach young people how to communicate and work as a team. They teach young people to respect (尊重) their coaches, teammates and players from the other team. Many reports say that sports help young people stay out of trouble. If a young person plays sports, he or she may have fewer problems. This is because sports teach people about rules. What’s more, they teach people that if they work hard, they might succeed. Another good way of sports is that they make people leave their houses. These days, a lot of people spend too much time watching television and playing video games. When you play sports, you go outside and exercise in the sun. You take in fresh air. All of these things are important. Maybe you’re not going to become a sports professional, but that doesn’t matter, sports will help you become a better and happier person. 24. We can probably read this passage in ________. A. a story book B. a health magazine C. a science fiction D. a history book 25. Which of the following is TRUE about sports? A. When doing sports, we should respect everyone in the game. B. More indoor exercise can bring people happiness and health. C. If young people do more sports, they will have more problems. D. When endorphins are made in our body, we will get angry easily. 26. The underlined word “they” (in Paragraph 3) refers to ________. A. rules B. reports C. sports D. problems 27. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? (P-Paragraph) A. B. C. D. 28. What is the best title for the passage? A. Sports Teach People to Work Hard B. Sports Are Good for Everyone C. Sports Make People Go Outside D. Sports Are Very Interesting 【答案】24. B 25. A 26. C 27. A 28. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了运动给人们带来的好处。运动会帮助人们成为一个更好、更快乐的人。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。文章主要讲述运动的好处，与健康相关，所以可能来自健康杂志，故选B。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Also, sports teach young people how to communicate and work as a team. They teach young people to respect (尊重) their coaches, teammates and players from the other team.”可知，运动时应尊重比赛中的每个人。故选A。 【26题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“…sports teach people about rules. What’s more, they teach people that if they work hard, they might succeed.” 可知，运动教会人守规矩，还教会人们，如果努力的话可能会成功，因此划线单词they指代上文提到的sports。故选C。 【27题详解】 篇章结构题。文章第一段总述有很多运动的原因，第二至四段分别从锻炼、团队合作、外出活动方面阐述运动的好处，第五段总结运动能让人变得更好更快乐，结构为总—分—总。故选A。 【28题详解】 最佳标题题。文章主要讲述运动对人的好处，包括锻炼、团队合作、外出活动等方面，选项B“运动对每个人都有好处”作为标题最为合适，最能概括全文主旨。故选B。 D Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is a great movie.

He puts five golden tickets randomly in five chocolate bars. If anyone can find a golden ticket, he can visit the chocolate factory. Charlie hears the news. He wants to visit the chocolate factory.

One by one all the other four kids have to leave the game because of their bad habits and Charlie wins the prize. However, Charlie has to leave his family if he wants to own the factory.

Let’s have a look. ·Internet People from Canada spend about 43.5 hours online every week, 8 hours longer than Americans. Canada has long cold winters, so people spend lots of time at home. ·Outdoors People from New Zealand spend most of their free time outdoors. The countryside there is great for mountain climbing and water sports. ·Bars Spain has a lot of bars. In Spain, a bar is for families, not just drinkers. It’s a meeting place and often an eating place. When none of your family or friends are free, you can still go to a bar by yourself. People around you in the bar may ask you to join them. ·Museums The UK has six of the top 20 most visited museums in the world, such as the National Gallery, the British Museum and Tate Modern. ·Parties As for parties, most people will think of Brazil. Its carnival (狂欢节) is famous all around the world. Bangkok and Berlin are two of the best cities for partying. In Bangkok, you can meet friendly people and visit great nightclubs. In Berlin, you can enjoy beautiful music on the streets. ·Exercising In Greece and Estonia, over 80 percent of people exercise every day.

B Several months ago, my husband and I were on an island for a long weekend with our five-year-old twin daughters. As we went back and forth about what to do next, our girls jumped in and told us exactly what they wanted to do. “We want to go to the butterfly museum,” said Emily and Hanna. As soon as we walked into the main area of the museum, we saw thousands of beautiful butterflies. They all flapped their colorful wings. My girls were jumping up and down, and I knew we had made the right decision to come to the museum. They were having so much fun. I turned to our museum tour guide because I was curious (好奇的), and asked, “How long do butterflies live?” She said: “About ten days.” “What can butterflies do in ten days?” I asked. The guide stopped, looked at me, and said, “They make the world a more beautiful place.” “Wow,” I said, “I never thought about butterflies like that. Thank you.” After we said goodbye, I couldn’t stop thinking about what the guide had said. She was right. We all have something to offer the world with the time we have. When we focus our gifts on taking care of each other every day, we can make a difference. Appreciate (欣赏) the impact you can have on your family, friends, co-workers and neighbors. Like a butterfly, you have your own way of making the world more beautiful for everyone. 21. Where did the family finally decide to go? A. To a butterfly museum. B. To another island. C. To visit friends at the museum. D. Back to their home. 22. How long does a butterfly live on average? A A few weeks. B. A month. C. About ten days. D. One day. 23. What did the guide think of butterflies? A. She thought butterflies could do nothing for the world. B. She was surprised to know the long lives of butterflies. C. She felt sorry for the butterflies that live such a short life. D. She really appreciated what the butterflies do for the world. C A lot of people play sports, but very few people become sports professionals (专家). If sports aren’t going to be your future, then why should you play them? Why should you train every day? Why should you work hard and feel sore the next day? Wouldn’t it be better to forget sports and only pay attention to your lessons? In fact, there are a lot of reasons to play sports. First of all, sports are a great way to exercise. Exercising keeps you healthy and strong. It also helps you stay in a good condition. When you exercise, your body makes endorphins (内啡肽) which give you more energy and make you feel happier. Also, sports teach young people how to communicate and work as a team. They teach young people to respect (尊重) their coaches, teammates and players from the other team. Many reports say that sports help young people stay out of trouble. If a young person plays sports, he or she may have fewer problems. This is because sports teach people about rules. What’s more, they teach people that if they work hard, they might succeed. Another good way of sports is that they make people leave their houses. These days, a lot of people spend too much time watching television and playing video games. When you play sports, you go outside and exercise in the sun. You take in fresh air. All of these things are important. Maybe you’re not going to become a sports professional, but that doesn’t matter, sports will help you become a better and happier person. 24. We can probably read this passage in ________. A. a story book B. a health magazine C. a science fiction D. a history book 25. Which of the following is TRUE about sports? A. When doing sports, we should respect everyone in the game. B. More indoor exercise can bring people happiness and health. C. If young people do more sports, they will have more problems. D. When endorphins are made in our body, we will get angry easily. 26. The underlined word “they” (in Paragraph 3) refers to ________. A. rules B. reports C. sports D. problems 27. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? (P-Paragraph) A. B. C. D. 28. What is the best title for the passage? A Sports Teach People to Work Hard B. Sports Are Good for Everyone C. Sports Make People Go Outside D. Sports Are Very Interesting D Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is a great movie. It is popular with the kids all over the world because it is so educational.

He puts five golden tickets randomly in five chocolate bars. If anyone can find a golden ticket, he can visit the chocolate factory. Charlie hears the news. He wants to visit the chocolate factory.
