26、   New arrivals to China often get the impression that Chinese people spend all of their time working. Yet，people in China devote quite a bit of time to leisure（休闲）.

Surprisingly，the Chinese love to relax. They love to spend their time taking care of flowers，raising birds and other pets. Chinese people are also fond of leisurely games，like the Chinese game Mahjong. The Chinese also love to play cards to pass the time. It is a national sport almost as widespread as petanque in France.

The Chinese have many ways to idle（休闲），including gossiping or chitchat，which is seen as a true art. Taking a walk and doing some light reading are also considered as idleness. If a person does all of these things，they are definitely an idler.

Busy people should also have free time. When at work，Chinese people often say that they need to “steal some time” from work.

Taoism（道教）teaches that people should improve moral character through relaxation，and be happy to lead a simple and honest life. This is why Chinese people believe so strongly in enjoying a carefree and relaxed life.

Poet Tao Yuanming set up a way of life that emphasizes a balanced country life. In a sense，his way is both earthy and spiritual. It has given us a way to be relaxed and well，while being balanced and carefree.

In China，having a life that is too full is not a sign of wisdom. It is only when things are empty that they can be filled. Hopefully，this information will remind people to rest a little and make room for free time in a busy life.

【1】What does the underlined word “petanque” most probably refer to?

A. an animal B. a person

C. a sport D. a flower

【2】What is the writer’s impression of Chinese people?

A. They simply work all the time. B. They have many ways to relax.

C. They don’t know how to enjoy life. D. They question a balanced country life.

【3】Which of the following is the best title of the text?

A. Spiritual Happiness B. Impression of China C. Leisure in China D. Wisdom of the Chinese

27、   You may not know a lot of people when you start high school. Maybe your friends from middle school are going to a different high school. Even if you know other freshmen(新生), you still feel nervous that you don’t know any upper-classmen. How are you going to make friends among this sea of unknown faces?

Most high schools hold a freshman orientation(训练) before school actually starts. These are helpful not only because you learn your way around the building and get to meet some of your teachers, but you also get to meet fellow freshmen. That way, when you show up on your first day of school, you may already recognize a few familiar faces.

When you talk to people at orientation, you’ll probably find that a lot of them are feeling just like you are. They’re all new to the school and don’t know what to expect. Talking about a common concern with your classmates can help you develop friendships.

The work in high school is something freshmen are probably worried about. The work in high school builds on what you learned in middle school, giving you a more advanced knowledge of many subjects. So you may find you have more work to do or that it’s a bit more challenging. If you ever find your work too difficult, teachers can give you extra help.

High school also has more after-school activities than middle school did, such as clubs, music and theater groups and sports teams. This is a good time to explore your interests and try new things.

Middle school taught you the basics of academics, time management, and social skills while providing you with a little extra support and guidance. High school gives you the chance to learn how to be more independent and responsible.

【1】According to the passage, when they come to the school on the first day freshmen usually feel ____.

A.proud B.nervous C.excited D.afraid

【2】What are freshmen probably worried about?

A.The learning task. B.The chances to make friends.

C.The freshman orientation. D.The relationship with teachers.

【3】After-school activities mainly help students ____.

A.build up healthy bodies B.develop friendships

C.develop their interests D.improve their learning ability

【4】The last paragraph is mainly about ____.

A.what you’ll learn in high school

B.what you leaned in middle school

C.the difference between middle school and high school

D.the importance of being more independent and responsible

29、   Getting less sleep has become a bad habit for most American kids. According to a new survey(调查) by the National Sleep Foundation, 51% of kids aged 10 to 18 go to bed at 10 pm or later on school nights, even though they have to get up early. Last year the Foundation reported that nearly 60% of 7- to 12-year-olds said they felt tired during the day, and 15% said they had fallen asleep at school.

How much sleep you need depends a lot on your age. Babies need a lot of rest: most of them sleep about 18 hours a day! Adults need about eight hours. For most school-age children, ten hours is ideal(理想的). But the new National Sleep Foundation survey found that 35% of 10- to 12-year-olds get only seven or eight hours. And guess what almost half of the surveyed kids said they do before bedtime? Watch TV.

“More children are going to bed with TVs on, and there are more opportunities(机会) to stay awake, with more homework, the Internet and the phone,” says Dr. Mary Carskadon, a sleep researcher at Brown University Medical School. She says these activities at bedtime can get kids all excited and make it hard for them to calm down and sleep. Other experts say part of the problem is chemical. Changing levels of body chemicals called hormones not only make teenagers’ bodies develop adult characteristics, but also make it hard for teenagers to fall asleep before 11 pm.

Because sleepiness is such a problem for teenagers, some school districts have decided to start high school classes later than they used to. Three years ago, schools in Edina, Minnesota, changed the start time from 7:25 am to 8:30 am. Students, parents and teachers are pleased with the results.

【1】What is the general idea of the first paragraph?

D.Adults will be healthier if they get more sleep.

【3】Why do children find it hard to fall asleep?

A.They get too excited before 11p.m.

B.Hormones get high at night.

C.Their bodies develop adult characteristics.

D.They may watch too much TV.

【4】What is the solution to the problem of sleepiness among children?

A.Urging them to sleep earlier.

B.Not allowing them to watch TV before sleep.

C.Getting up later than before.

D.Not going to school earlier.

【5】What is the author’s attitude toward the change of school start time?

31、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

The view that the spirit of adventure no longer has any scope for its enterprise seems, at first glance, depressingly true. The highest mountains have been scaled; the deepest seas plumbed. Maps today no longer contain huge blanks marked "Unknown Territory", nor do they make random guesses at the shapes of 【1】 land-masses. All major journeys of exploration to 【2】 the true shape and nature of the globe have been made in the past. It was left to us to fill in the details with 【3】 which once would have been considered impossible. The gaps have been 【4】. What next?

The obvious answer, of course, is that man is now looking upwards into space. Discoveries are being made at such a tremendous rate that even authors of science-fiction are finding it difficult to keep up with them and have to tax their imagination to invent bigger and better space-craft. Satellites sending signals as they swing round our globe have become 【5】.

Astronauts have successfully landed on the moon and its entire surface has been photographed. The information that satellites may provide fueling stations for manned rockets no longer strikes us as preposterous. If thirty years ago, a scientist has urged that we send messages into outer space in the hope of receiving an answer, he would have been regarded as either irresponsible or mad. Now, anything seems 【6】.

From dreams like these, we return to earth with a bump. Trips into space are all very well, but they are not for us; we must 【7】 ourselves with our own, much-traveled world. The earth itself is the training-ground for adventurous spirits, for "adventure" need not mean the seeking out of something new. A person can be called adventurous when he finds out something for himself, and it does not matter how many times the discovery has been made before. No one would say that men who set out now to cross the forbidding Antarctic are less enterprising than their predecessors who tried to do the same thing. The little boy who climbs the small hill that 【8】 his town, or even he who tries to climbs and fails, has precisely the same spirit that led Hillary to climb Everest. For the bold spirit and inquiring mind, there are inexhaustible possibilities. So long as there are people willing to 【9】 places that are well-known, there will be those who will, one day, set foot on remote and 【10】 shores.

32、阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

When Ryan first turned up for Ms. Rose's class, he was kind of nervous because he'd heard Ms. Rose could be a real monster sometimes. But as Ms. Rose started with an overview of what they'd be doing during the year in a pleasant voice, she looked nice enough. Then with a more serious tone, she warned the students that she'd be giving them homework assignments, which were not to be handed in late, and they were to be completed fully. "No excuses! No extensions!”

That day she assigned the class its first homework. They had to do a sheet of math problems and read a short story.  It wasn't due until Thursday, but she suggested they do it immediately that night. "Homework has a way of piling up, "she said, her eyes narrowing slightly. But today was only Monday! There was plenty of time, Ryan thought.

So when school was over, Ryan and his friends ran off to play baseball. Exhausted after the game, he entertained himself with his favorite TV show, leaving his homework aside on his desk. Days passed quickly. Ryan was free of worries most of the time, while Ms. Rose just occasionally reminded them of the deadline, and that she wouldn't tolerate anyone not having done it.

Wednesday, after dinner, he suddenly realized that his homework was due next day. He raced to his desk and was greeted with the most curious thing. The pile of homework really had grown taller. Oh no! What was he going to do? It looked as if the papers had towered over him, almost soaring up to the ceiling.

He really needed to get started. He did a lite bit here and there, but he kept getting distracted by other work waiting for him. Finally, he couldn't even locate the homework he'd started with. Frustrated, he gave up and went to bed.  Ryan tossed and turned all night and had bad dreams of paper mountains burying him alive.

The next morning, when Ryan entered the classroom, he found Ms. Rose waiting, her faced dark with rage.  Obviously, Ryan wasn't the only one who suffered from the mysteriously growing assignments.
