There are 365 days in a year. We sleep 8 hours a day, so we have 122 days for sleeping. Then our work time has 243 days left. But there are 52 weekends in a year. Each weekend is two days. We lose another 104 days a year for work. It takes us about one hour to have breakfast and supper. This comes to 15 days over a year. But we can’t work all that time-we need a holiday. Let’s say we have three weeks’ holiday. We don’t work all day. Four free hours each evening takes up 61 days. We have to remember th at we get 2 days’ holiday at Easter, 3 at Christmas and 1 at the New Year. There are also 4 Bank holidays. Take those 10 days away and we have 32 days for work. But then we have one and a half hours’ lunch every day, and half an hour’s coffee break. That c omes to 30 days a year. This means that we have only a few days left for work every year!

―God made the world, but the Dutch made Holland.‖ True to this saying, the people of the Netherlands are again ―making‖ their land.
About 1980 the Netherlands will complete a project begun in the 1920’s: transforming the Zyuder Zee, an inlet (小港) of the North Sea into dry land and a freshwater lake. By stages, 550,000 acres of land will serve several purposes: industrial, recreational, military, and agricultural. Fed by the river Yssel, the remaining water basin Lake Yssel, about 300,000 acres will irrigate the surrounding land and help in the fight against salination (盐化作用). Excess water will drain through sluices into the sea.
As the first stop a nineteen-mile-long barrier dam, rising twenty-five feet above sea level, closed the entrance to the Zuider Zee. Then the experimental polder of a hundred acres preceded the first and smallest of the main polders fifty thousand acres that became dry land in 1930. The fifth and largest polder 150,000 acres will be the last of the Zuider Zee works.
Farmers for the new polder (开拓地) come from every province. The Eastern Flevoland polder, completed in 1957, became farmland for many from the province of Zealand which was badly hit by the disastrous floods of 1953.

Dear Aunt Aggie,

Unluckily, when Beth was writing back to me, she accidentally forwarded(无意间转发) the message to Rena! Now Rena is really angry with me and won't talk to me, and Beth is unhappy as well.

What should I do? Joe

This problem is more common than you might think! Email is very useful, but also very dangerous, as you don't know where your message might end up! First of all, you should say sorry right away to Rena. Explain that it was a mistake, and that you didn't mean to hurt her feelings. It may take time for her to be able to forgive you, but that's up to her. Then you might want to do something nice for her. Perhaps send her some flowers to show that you're truly sorry. Also, you should remember that old saying:" If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." And good luck! Aggie

D. He said sorry to Rena face to face,
（）3. What does the underlined (画线的) sentence mean in the second email? It means "________".
A. because you don't know who the email is for
B. because you can never know who will get your email at last

Food is life; it gives us the nourishment (营养) we need to stay alive and be healthy. Usually, we eat because we are hungry or need energy. Brian Wansink, a professor (教授) at the University of Illinois, says we also eat certain (某种) foods because they make us feel good, and remind us of happy memories. Wansink calls this kind of food comfort food. For some people, ice cream is a comfort food. For others, a bowl of noodles makes them feel good.
How does a food became comfort food? Professor Wansink believes that we connect food with important times, feelings, and people in our lives, 'When I was a child, my mother made a delicious soup; I loved it. Now, I often eat this soup when I am tired or worried, and it helps me feel better,' says one of Wansink's friends.
Do men and women choose different comfort foods? Wansink's research (研究) at the University of Illinois says 'yes'. In his study, the favourite comfort for both men and women was ice cream. After this, men usually preferred hot, delicious foods like soup or noodles. Women liked sweet things such as chocolate and candies. Men and women like to eat comfort foods when they are happy, but women eat these foods more when they are sad or worried.
( )1. According to the passage, a kind of food that makes us feel good is called ________.
A. fast food
B. healthy food
C. Chinese food
D. comfort food
( )2. In Wansink's study, both men and women like to eat ________.
A. soup
B. ice cream
C. noodles
D. chocolates
( )3. The passage implies (暗示) that ________.
A. men probably eat more comfort foods than women
B. women usually eat comfort foods only when they are happy
C. men usually eat comfort foods when they are sad
D. women probably eat comfort foods more often than men

We have arrived in the hot, wet city of Bangkok. This is our first trip to Thailand(泰国). All the different smells make us want to try the food. We are going to eat something special for dinner tonight. The hotel we are staying in is cheap, and very clean. We plan to stay here for a few days, visit some places in the city, and then travel to Chiang Mai in the North.
Tuesday, March 27th
Bangkok is wonderful and surprising! The places are interesting. We visited the famous market which was on water, and saw a lot of fruits and vegetables. Everything is so colorful, and we have taken hundreds of photos already! Later today we will leave for Chiang Mai. We will take the train north, stay in Chiang Mai for two days, and then catch a bus to Chiang Rai.
Friday，March 30th
Our trip to Chiang Rai was long and boring. We visited a small village in the mountains. The village people here love the quiet life -- no computers or phones. They are the kindest people I have ever met. They always smile and say ―hello‖. Kathy and I can only speak a few words of Thai, so smiling is the best way to show our kindness. I feel good here and hope to be able to come back next year.

Dear editor (编辑) ，
I live in a beautiful city . Many visitors come to my city . there are so many colorful peacocks (孔雀) here .
The peacocks mostly live on the grass land of Dongfeng Square
They are given food freely by visitors . They usually throw food to them , and don’t think about at all whether the food is right or not . Some of the peacocks became ill , some even died after eating the bad food given by the visitors.

Once upon a time there lived an old man. He had three sons. One day, he called them together and said, "Sons, I will die soon. To my oldest son I give half my camels, to my second, one-third(三分之一), and to my youngest, one-ninth (九分之一)." Soon after that he died.
Now, the old man had seventeen camels, and the three brothers didn't know how to do as their father said. They thought a long time about the problem, and it seemed that they must either kill some of the camels and cut them into pieces, or disobey their father. At last they went to their father's old friend and asked for his advice. As soon as he heard their story, he said, "I will help you. I was a good friend of your father's. I am old. I have only one camel, but take it-it is yours."
The three sons thanked the old man and took his camel. Now they found it was easy to do as their father wished, The oldest took half- that was nine camels; the second took one-third, that was six; and the youngest took one-ninth, that was two.

We know mosquitoes very well. Mosquitoes fly everywhere. They can be found almost all over the world, and there are more than 2,500 kinds of them.
No one likes the mosquito. But the mosquito may decide if she loves you. She? Yes, she. The male mosquito doesn’t bite! Only the female mosquito bites because she needs blood to lay eggs. She is always looking for things or people she wants to bite. If she likes what she finds, she b ites. But if she doesn’t like your blood, she will turn to someone else for more delicious blood. Next time a mosquito bites you, just remember you are chosen. You’re different from the others!
If the mosquito likes you, she lands on your body without letting you know. She bites you so quickly and quietly that you may not feel anything different. After she bites, you will have an itch(痒) on your body because she puts something from her mouth together with your blood. When the itch begins, she has flown away.
And then what happens? Well, after her delicious dinner, the mosquito feels tired. She wants to find a place to have a good rest. There, in a tree or on a wall, she begins to lay eggs, hundreds of eggs.
( )1.All the people don’t like mosquitoes.
( )2.All mosquitoes like to bite people for blood.
( )3.If a mosquito wants to bite you, it means she is very tired.
( )4.The mosquito bites you too quickly and quietly to let you know.
( )5.The itch begins after the mosquito flies away.

Do you know why different animals or pests(昆虫) have their special colours? Colours in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.
Some birds like eating locusts(蝗虫), but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colours together with the change of the colours of crops(庄稼). When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest (收
获)time comes, locusts change to the same brown colour as crops have. Some other pests with different colours from plants are easily found and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night.
If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of colouring is to protect themselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters. This is because they have the colours much like the trees.
Have you ever found an even more strange act? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid(液体) when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over(散开), its enemies(敌人) cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. So it has lived up to now though it is not strong at all.
( )1.From the passage we learn that locusts________.
A. are small animals
B. are easily found by birds
C. are dangerous to their enemies
D. change their colours to protect themselves
( )2.How can pests with different colours from plants keep out of danger?

( )3.Bears and lions can keep safe because________.
A. they have the colours much like the trees
B. they move quietly
C. they like brown and grey colours
D. they live in forests
( )4.Why can the kind of fish live up to now?

Because the liquid it sends out can help it escape from its enemies.
B. Because the liquid it sends out can kill its enemies.

初中英语课外阅读： （一）农夫和苹果树 A poor farmer had a friend who was famous for the wonderful apple he grew. One day, his friend gave the farmer a young apple tree and told him to take it home and plant it. The farmer was pleased with the gift, but when he got home he did not know where to plant it. He was afraid that if he planted the tree near the road, strangers would steal the fruit. If he planted the tree in one of his field, his neighbors would come at night and steal some of the apples. If he planted the tree near his house, his children would take the fruit. Finally he planted the tree in his wood where no one could see it. But without sunlight and good soil, the tree soon died. Later the friend asked the farmer why he had planted the tree in such a poor place."What's the difference?" the farmer said angrily. "If I had planted the tree near the road, strangers would have stolen the fruit. If I had planted the tree in one of my field, my neighbors would have come at night and stolen some of the apples. If I had planted it near my house, my own children would have taken the fruit." "Yes," said the friend, "but at least someone could have enjoyed the fruit.

The man shook his head, “No. I think the President invites a lot of people to the White House. You?d o nly be important if while you were visiting the President, there was a telephone call from the president of another country, and the President of the US said he was too busy to answer it.”The reporter turned to the third man. “Do you think so?” “No, I don?t.” he said. “I don?t think that makes the visitor important.

初中英语阅读研究课题中期实验总结 北师大泉州附中王海燕一．初中英语课外阅读的意义和要求 阅读是英语教学的重要组成部分，加强对学生阅读技能和技巧的培养，不断提高学生的阅读能力是英语教学的一项重要任务。对学生进行阅读训练不仅是帮助学生吸收语言信息、增加语言知识、扩大词汇量的最重要的手段，而且还能促进学生口语能力和写作能力的发展、促进学生综合语言素质的提高。近几年来的中考题中阅读能力测试题达到近50%，加上与阅读有关的其他能力测试题比例就更高,达三分之二以上。《英语课程标准》对中学生的阅读能力和阅读量提出了明确的要求：初中毕业生应“能读懂供7—9年级学生阅读的简单读物和报刊、杂志，克服生词障碍，理解大意；能根据阅读目的，运用适当的阅读策略；除教材外，课外阅读量应累计达到15万词以上”。 二．初中英语课外阅读推广困难的原因分析 针对目前初中英语教学中课外阅读推广困难的问题,我进行了长期、细致的分析和调查，认为主要有以下四方面的因素导致初中英语教学中课外阅读难以进行或难见成效： 首先，阅读时间不能保证。根据新课程标准的要求，初一学生每天课外至少要阅读100—150词，初二学生每天课外阅读至少200-300词，初三学生每天课外至少要阅读400—500词。然而，由于平时作业多，学生忙于完成教师布置的作业，根本没时间进行课外阅读。 其次，自身知识面狭隘以及对英语国家文化背景知识贫乏是造成阅读障碍的另一原因。初中学生正值身心发育的人生重要阶段，本该是大量吸收周遭信息、丰富个人知识的关键时期，但由于面对升学压力和来自社会、家庭的较高的学业期望，不少学生学习负担繁重、几乎没有时间和渠道了解和吸取功课以外的信息，除了书本知识和校园生活对周遭事物极少关心、知识面比较狭隘；而英语阅读文章大多涉及社会生活的方方面面，不少学生因为对生活现象或历史知识缺乏了解而对阅读有畏难感。另一方面，语言是文化的载体，是文化的表现形式，学习一门外语的过程，也是了解和掌握该语言国家文化背景知识的过程。不少同学对英
