There students are welcome to ride a horse. The Ebony Horse Club is a riding school for children from poor families. It opened in 2011. Now, the club provides 140 rides per week for children. A four-day riding trip in Wales costs £70 per person, but horse-riding lessons at the club are only £7 for children. This is a lot cheaper. “If the parents can’t afford to pay, we still let the children ride,” says Naomi Howgate, the manager of the club. Naomi is also a horse-riding teacher. She spends two days a week looking after the stables(马厩) and giving the children riding lessons. “I teach them how to tell if a horse is feeling happy or sad, how to walk up to a horse safely and how to build a good relationship with the horses. Anyone over 12 can be a young volunteer here,” says Naomi. “Working here helps children with their horseback riding and life skills.” 12-year-old Omari is a member of the club. “The lessons have taught me a lot. They’ve taught me to be caring, kind, and to be ourselves around horses,” he says. Shaddai Mcleod is one of the club’s youngest riders. The 9-year-old boy often rides after school. On Sunday, he likes coming to the club to look after the horses and clean the stables, tidying the horses, and preparing their evening meals. His sister Zion is 13 years old. She works as hard as him. She says she is lucky to be a member of the club. The club has experienced an increase in children wanting to join. But it needs donations(捐赠)to keep running. 25.

A. a new riding school for children B. cheap lessons for poor children C. a loving school for growth and skills D. the best club to ride horses Passage 3 When Shelly received the notice about a field trip to Falls of the Ohio State Park, she immediately began to worry. Shelly’s daughter, Ryan, was born with a birth problem that meant she could not walk like a normal kid. At age of 10, Ryan has already had more than 32 operations(手术) to correct the problem, and she uses a wheelchair to get around. Ryan’s school has always been great about taking good care of her disability (残疾), but Shelly wondered how in the world they’d pull off a field trip that involved hiking over rocky hills and streams. Yet as it turns out, Shelly needn’t have worried. A teacher, Jim, who works at the school and was planning to attend the field trip reached out to Shelly and offered to carry the 55-pound child on his back. Shelly happily accepted his offer, noting that he was not even Rvan’s teacher but he still offered to carry her because he wanted to make sure all of the students were included in the experience. Sure enough, a friend of Shelly shared photos of the field trip, and they’re too sweet for words. All day long Jim carried Ryan in a special backpack carrier as the class explored the state park. Ryan was excited to be able to experience the trip along with her classmates, deeply impressed by learning first-hand about the wonders of the earth and human kindness. “To anybody else who is in a wheelchair, nothing should stop you and you shouldn’t be afraid to ask for help,” Shelly said. “There are good people out there who want to help you. I hope seeing these pictures will encourage other physically-disabled people never to stop looking for ways to be a part of the world around them.” 29. Why did Shelly worry about Ryan? A. Ryan couldn’t walk normally B. This was Ryan’s first field trip C. This was a long-distance trip. D. Ryan had just had an operation 30.Why did Jim choose to help Ryan? A. He wanted to show his strength B. He was very familiar with Ryan. C. He thought it was his duty to do so D. He hoped every student could join the trip. 31. What does the underlined word “carrier” mean? A.搬运机 B.置物架 C.书包 D.担架床 32.What did Ryan think of her trip? A. It was boring. B. It was exciting C. It was tough. D. It was tiring 33.What can we infer from Shelly’s words in the last paragraph? A. No man can do two things at once. B. Reason is the guide and light of life C. All things are difficult before they are easy. D. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. B.阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项 Passage 4 Glass skyscrapers (摩天大楼) stand tall over our cities. They look beautiful, reflecting (反射) the clouds and sky. 34 MSN News reported that from Sept 13 to 14, nearly 300 birds died after crashing (撞) into the World Trade Center towers in New York City. “I was totally shocked,” said Melissa Breyer to the New York Post. The US Wildlife Service guesses that each year, up to one billion birds crash with glass in the US and many of them die. 35 The situation is also shocking in China. Li Binbin, a professor of Environmental Sciences at Duke Kunshan University, Jiangsu said. Now he is leading China’s first research team for bird deaths by crashing. 36 CGTN said dead birds are quickly swept up by cleaners or eaten by other animals. Meanwhile, Li said there is a lack of research data about this problem in China. As a result, bird crash gets no attention from policymakers or housing developers, said CGTN. 37 “Before humans created glass buildings, birds had freedom to fly safely. Given that humans are the ones who created the problem, we should find the solutions,” said Liao Shuyue, a student volunteer with the Duke Kunshan program. ( A. But that’s what makes them dangerous, for birds. B. Nobody feels a need to make buildings more bird-friendly. C. Modern skyscrapers all over the world are danger to birds. D. What did humans really do to birds? E. If it’s such a big problem, why don’t we ever hear about it? F. But this isn’t just a problem in the US. ) “Before humans created glass buildings, birds had freedom to fly safely. Given that humans are the ones who created the problem, we should find the solutions,” said Liao Shuyue, a student volunteer with the Duke Kunshan program.

The 18-year-old won the women’s free ski big air event with an amazing jump she had never tried before. She made four and a half rotations(旋转) in the air before landing backward(向后).The teenager was so excited that she cried after the jump. “The tears were mostly of joy, that I had pushed myself to the absolute limit,” she said afterward. Gu wants to send a message to young winter sports lovers. “Just go for it,” she said. Su Yiming, who just turned 18, agrees with Gu.

He showed off a difficult trick(高难度动作)-five full rotations in the air. “As a snowboard lover, I don’t care much about the score. Instead, I just want to make more brilliant tricks. The happiness comes from that,” said Su. Su said he was “too excited” to describe standing on the podium(领奖台)with his childhood idols-Canadian snowboarders Max Parrot and Mark McMorris. “I want to say to all Chinese snowboarders that they should keep working hard and never give up, because dreams can come true,” he said after his win. 59.

It’s common to see some boys like playful fighting and they may never think about the bad hurt it will cause. So I strongly advise them to stop such dangerous behaviors and show their friendships in other ways. Why don’t they take part in some sport matches? The strict rules can protect them against any careless hurt as well as taking their energy. What’s more, they can also join in some interest groups to take up something meaningful. After all, there are more good activities than any simple playful fighting. To keep safe is the basic to go for more happiness. Let’s do it together from now on. 9 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
