If your answers are “Yes”, you’d better take care. Most of them are junk food.What is junk food? Junk food has lots of fat, salt and sugar, but few nutrients（营养）. Most scientists say junk food is unhealthy.Our body changes sugar into fat. If you have 3 spoonfuls of sugar each day, how much sugar do you eat by the time you are 50? It will be 280 kilograms! About 5 times as heavy as your weight! Junk food is popular in the world. Why? Firstly, it’s cheap to make. Secondly, it’s quick and easy for people to consume. Thirdly, many people, including children, like it because it tastes good. Lastly, most junk food has food additives（添加剂）. So it looks and tastes better.Why is junk food bad? Junk food is bad for health. It is the cause of overweight, heart diseases and many other health problems. When children start eating lots of junk food, they tend not to have enough milk and healthy fruit juice. This can cause a lack of calcium in their body.What should we do? It’s OK to have junk food now and then. How often should we have it? It depends on your weight, age and how active you are. If you are overweight and want to lose weight, you should eat as little as possible. If you are active and not overweight, you can have some after you have enough dairy products, fruits, vegetables and cereals（谷物）.46.

According to the article, which of the following isn’t good for health?A. VegetablesB. MilkC. Soft drinkD. Fruit juiceBCrocodiles lay their eggs and leave them under leaves or sand. Baby crocodiles have special sharp teeth with which to break their way out of the shells.Crocodiles only live where it is hot. They are found in India, Australia, Africa, and America. They spend most of their time lying around in the mud or the rivers. The crocodile’s long powerful tail is used when the animal is swimming. It is also an excellent weapon, because it can be swung(摇摆) with great speed and force. One blow will knock down a man or even a big animal at once. The crocodile is very well protected against its enemies by the hard bony plates which cover most of its body, but because of the way its neck is formed, it cannot turn its head from side to side and so it can only see in front of itself. The crocodile has its teeth cleaned by the crocodile bird. For its food, this bird takes the bits left in the crocodile’s mouth. This helps the crocodile, which cannot clean its own teeth, for it cannot move its tongue up and down. With its rows of terrible pointed teeth it seizes its food, which may be a fish, an animal, or even a careless human being, and then holds it below the water until it is drown to death.The long-nosed crocodile is shy and timid and because of this, the people of West Africa where it lives, sometimes catch it for food. Many, many centuries ago there were crocodiles in England. We know this because we have found their bones buried far down in the earth on which London is built. But the Britain of today is too cold for them to live in. Crocodiles may grow to over thirty feet in length. When they lie floating in the water, they look like floating tree-trunks and it is often impossible to tell that they are there.51.The female crocodile .A. buries her eggsB. sits on her eggsC. carries her eggsD. eats her eggs52.The crocodile can only look . A. left B. right C. backwards D. ahead53.The crocodile kills its food .A. over the waterB. beside the waterC. under the waterD. on the water54.The West Africans catch the crocodile because it is .A. wild and cruelB. shy and timidC. stupid and slowD. slow and shy55.Wild crocodiles are not seen in England now because .A. they have all been shotB. they too dangerousC. they are all hiding under the earth D .they could not get used to the cold weather第二节：有一些来自未来杂志的信息，朗读下列10年内可能会发生的事。

But still I am quite worried by many noises, such as the pets in the neighbourhood, the rings of the telephones, the visits of the salesmen …If your place is noisy too, then my following advice may be good to you:1. Go to the coffeesIt sounds crazy, isn’t it? Can you work in such a noisy place? I like to work while listening to music. Someone likes the quietness and light music in the coffees. Actually, when I was writing a novel, I prefer to walk out to some public places such as restaurants, KFCs or stations where I can get some interesting things for my stories.2. Go to the libraryRecently, college libraries are not such quiet places, but public libraries keep its traditions. Of course, college libraries will be a good choice to do study, for there are plenty of books. If you are a college student, you had better go to the libraries in the colleges.3. Put on your earphonesSometimes I found it’s necessary to put on earphones when I am working at home. Of course, you should make sure which kind of music makes you work better.4. Arrange the time betterAs a SOHO, you needn’t work in a certain period of time. If you need a very quiet environment, try to work at midnight.5. Use other ways to make yourself betterIf the noise is too loud and strong, then take a rest! Listen to music, watch films, or walk outside, do something else. Start your work when i t’s quiet and you have enough energy.71.The writer’s house is located in a quieter place in the city without any noises around.72.The visits of the salesmen make the writer worried.73.The writer prefers some public places to get interesting things for his stories.74.College libraries are usually quieter than public libraries.75.In order to work better, the writer was sure to put on earphones while working at home.76.Working at midnight can provide you a very quiet environment.77.Having a rest is one of the ways to make yourself feel better.B.

But when we talk about day and night, we are using―day‖to mean the time between sunrise and sunset. Since the earth looks like a ball, the sun can shine on only half of it at a time. Always one half of the earth is having day and the other half night. A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by the spinning（旋转）of the earth. At the equator（赤道）day and night are sometimes the same length（长度）. They are each twelve hours long. The sun rises at 6 o’clock in the morning and sets at 6 o’clock in the evening. For six months the North Pole is tilted（倾斜）toward the sun. In those months the Northern Hemisphere（半球）gets more hours of sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere. Days are longer than nights. South of the equatornights are longer than days. For the other six months the North Pole is tilted away from the sun. Then the Southern Hemisphere gets more sunlight. Days are longer than nights. North of the equator nights are longer than days. Winter is the season of long nights. Summer is the season of long days.（）1．A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by ________ of the earth.A. the pushingB. the pullingC. the spinningD. the passing（）2．At the equator day is as long as night ________.A. sometimesB. neverC. usuallyD. always（）3．When the North Pole is tilted toward the sun, the Northern Hemisphere gets ________ sunlight.A. lessB. moreC. allD. no（B）Jean is a bright young woman who comes from a rich and famous family.

She likes being anonymous（匿名）, talking to people who do not know about her farnous family and her rich life. She uses the name Linda on QQ and has made a lot of friends who she keeps in touch with quiteoften.Last year Jean made a very special friend on QQ. His name was David and livedin San Francisco. David was full of stories and jokes. He and Jean had a common （共同的）interest in rock music and modern dance. So it always took them hours to talk happily on QQ and sometimes they even forgot their time. Of course, they wanted to know more about each other. David sent a picture of himselt: He was a tall, good-looking young man with a big, happy smile. As time went by, they became good friends and often sent cards and small things to each other. When Jean’t father told her that he was going on a business trip to San Francisco, she asked him to let her go with him so that she could give David a surprise for his birthday. She would take him the latest DVD of their favourite rock singer. But when she knocked on David’s door in San Francisce, she found that her special friend was a twelve-year-old boy named Jim!（）1.Jean spends a lot of her time on QQ because she is .A. richB. famousC. youngD. lonely（）2.Jean thought ―David‖ was special because he .A. made her quite happy on QQB. was from San FranciscoC. sent her a picture of himselfD. was tall and good-looking（）3.When Jean and ―David‖ met and introduced themselves to each other, who felt surprised?A. ―David‖.B.
