hundred前有具体数字修饰时,用单数形式,不加s,也不加of;表示概数“数百”时,用hundreds of结构,前面不加具体数字。根据语境可知此处表示具体数量“超过六百”,six为具体数字,故hundred用单数形式,不加s。

【解析】
【详解】句意:Maya的爸爸寄给她一张明信片,她十分喜欢,于是就把它张贴在卧室的墙上。
took up开始从事/占据;pick up捡起/接;put up张贴/挂起。由句中sent、liked可知句子时态为一般过去时,B选项pick是动词原形,时态错误;结合“on her bedroom wall”的语境,此处表达张贴明信片,put的过去式为put,符合时态与句意,应填put it up。

Many people think that children in other countries have more free time than Chinese children. But new research shows they are wrong. The research says children in England have little free time. Many children in England are busy: They have no free time to “be just children”.
The research also says that children are under great pressure from schools and parents. Children in England must work hard at school. They have to go to many clubs and classes after school. They can’t get home until very late. After dinner, they do their homework. Some children usually spend over two hours in front of computers doing their homework.
Some teachers and parents think children are so busy now. “Children should have more free time, so they can do something they like. Learning is not just in the classroom. If children are interested in something, they can learn a lot from it,” Mrs. Smith says. “So free time is also important to children.”

Bobi, the world’s oldest dog, just celebrated his 31st birthday on May 11, 2023.
A party was held on Saturday at his home in a Portuguese (葡萄牙的) village. More than 100 people attended the party. Local meat and fish were served to the guests and Bobi, who only eats human food.
Mr. Costa owned several old-aged dogs in the past, but he never imagined any of his dogs would reach their 30s. What has helped Bobi’s long life? Mr. Costa believes the “quiet and peaceful environment” in which Bobi lives matters. Also Bobi has enjoyed a free and happy life in the nearby forest. But he thinks the most important reason is that the “very active” dog has never been lonely.
Now in Bobi’s older years, he finds it difficult to walk. Just like old-aged humans, Bobi sleeps a lot. He lies down in bed at once after eating, although on cold days he chooses to take a short sleep by the fire. He refuses to walk in the forest. Instead he prefers to hang out at home in the yard. Only little Costa, Mr. Costa’s son, can ask him for a walk outside.
Mr. Costa, now 38, was only 8 years old when Bobi was born. “Bobi is special because looking at him is like remembering the family members who have already left this world, like my grandparents.” Mr. Costa said.
61. Bobi was born on May 11, ________.
A. 1981 B. 1992 C. 2014
62. What kind of food does Bobi eat?
A. Human food. B. Dog food. C. Cat food.
63. According to Mr. Costa, which is the most important reason for Bobi’s long life?
A. He lives in a quiet and peaceful environment.
B. He’s lived a free and happy life in the forest.
C. The “very active” dog has never been lonely.
64. In Bobi’s older years, who can ask him for a walk outside?
A. Mr. Costa. B. Little Costa. C. Mrs. Costa.
65. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Bobi and His Owner Mr. Costa

C. Bobi, the World’s Oldest Dog
【答案】61. B 62. A 63. C 64. B 65. C

The friends were sad, but they wanted to have a photo of the kangaroo to show everyone back home. Jeff got his camera, and the others picked up the kangaroo and stood it up against the jeep. The boys decided to dress up the kangaroo. They put a cap, sunglasses, and a jacket on him. They took several photos with the kangaroo.
