The important thing is that children enjoy the game, and don't even realize how much they are learning!So the next time you have to choose between making your child study or letting them play a game, just remember…they could do both at the same time!36.

And now I’m big enough to help 23 the river too.Picking up rubbish is 24 a treasure hunt (搜寻). My friends and I find plastic bags, bottles, paper, and all kinds of things. There used to be even more rubbish here. On one weekend, my grandparents 25 picked up 6 tons of rubbish. That’s as much as an elephant weighs!That rubbish was 26 to the river or the animals and plants that lived there. So the River Rats taught people who were playing around the river to take rubbish with them rather than 27 it. Now there’s much less rubbish for 28 to pick up. Maybe one day we won’t find any rubbish here.My favorite job is to look for water bugs (虫子)! The bugs like to stay at the river bottom. Some bugs don’t 29 how dirty the water is, but other bugs can only live in clean water. 30 we find lots of bugs that need clean water, then we will know the river is clean enough for fish and for us.I love taking care of the Jacks Fork River.

The teacher sent me to the blackboard to write my name and address. I knew my name and address, knew how to write them, knew how to spell them, but standing at the blackboard with the eyes of the many girls and boys looking at me made me nervous. I was unable to write a single letter.“Write your name,” the teacher said to me. I lifted the white chalk to the blackboard and, as I was about to write my name, my mind went empty. I could not remember my name, not even the first letter. “Just forget about us and write your name and address,” said the teacher. I wanted to write but my hand refused to move. The children began to whisper (低语). “Don’t you know your name?” asked the teacher. I looked at her and could not answer. The teacher stood up and walked to my side, smiling at me to give me confidence (自信). She put her hand softly on my shoulder and asked, “What’s your name?”“Richard Wright,” I whispered. I spelled my name very quickly.“Now, can you write?”“Yes, madam.”Again, I turned to the blackboard. I wrote my name and address down quickly and correctly. “Good boy. You may go to your seat,” said the t eacher.Today I can still remember my teacher’s words and encouragement. They meant a lot to me.( ) 31. What was the writer asked to do on his first day at the new school?A. To tell a story.B. To talk about his family.C. To write down some new words.D. To write down his name and address.( ) 32.

The writer’s name and address.C. The new school and the teacher.D. The teacher’s words and encouragement.( ) 35. Which is the best title for the passage?A. My school lifeB. My first teacherC. My first day at schoolD. The story behind my nameBYou probably see a lot of things made of plastic, like bottles and bags, every day. What happens when that plastic gets thrown away? Scientists say much of it ends up in oceans and causes problems for creatures (生物) like fish and birds.“Plastic puts ocean creatures in danger,” says Allison Schutes of the Ocean Conservancy. That's a group that works to protect the world's oceans.A recent study shows that each minute, enough plastic reaches the ocean to fill up one garbage truck! That same study predicts that by the year 2050, our oceans will have more plastic than fish.All that plastic is bad news for ocean life. Some ocean creatures die when they get tangled (使缠结) in pieces of plastic. Others accidentally eat it and die, too.Most scientists say taking out all the plastic that's already in the ocean would be impossible. Instead, they say the best way is to prevent more plastic from getting there.Many groups are already taking action. They organize cleanups on beaches to pick up litter before it reaches the ocean. ▲ , volunteers from the Ocean Conservancy collected more than 16 million pounds of it last year!Experts also encourage people to use less plastic. Many cities and towns in America have banned plastic shopping bags. Experts also suggest that people drink out of reusable bottles and try reusable shopping bags.“These seem like small things,” says Schutes, “but they can help make a big difference.”( )36. It is predicted that in about 35 years, there will be ______.A. no fish in the oceansB. no plastic on the beachesC. more plastic than fish in the oceansD. more reusable shopping bags than plastic ones( )37. How many examples are given to show plastic is dangerous to ocean creatures?A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D. Four.( )38. Which of the following can be put in ▲ ?A. At first.B. All in all.C. To be honest.D. For example.( )39. What does the underlined word “banned” mean in Chinese?A. 生产B. 发明C. 销售D. 禁止( )40. Which is the best title for the passage?A. A sea of plasticB. Litter in towns and citiesC. Ocean creatures in dangerD. A group that protects oceansCFor many years, thousands of people went to the Arctic (北极) in summer, but in winter few people went there. In the winter of 1990, the French artist Jannot Derit was invited to have the opening of his exhibition in a building in the little village of Jukkasjarvi. The building, named the Arctic Hall, was made of snow. Many visitors went there. One night a group of visitors decided to sleep in the Arctic Hall. The following morning the brave group was very pleased with their experience and the idea of an ice hotel was born. Today the ICEHOTEL is world-famous.As soon as winter begins, a team of builders from all over the world come to Jukkasjarvi and they make the hotel for that year. As one part is completed, it opens to visitors, while the other parts are still being built. The first part is completed in December and each week after that a new part opens. The hotel isn't usually completed until January 7th. The ICEHOTEL is built under the open sky, using the natural materials of the winter season. So the finishing date depends on ______ and there are sometimes changes to the plan. In spring, as the weather gets warmer, the hotel melts (融化).No matter how cold it may be outside, the temperature inside the hotel is never colder than －5 ℃ to －8 ℃. Winter outer (外边的) clothes are included in the cost of visitors' stay at the hotel. If you are planning to come to the hotel, you can buy warm sweaters, socks and much more on the ICEHOTEL website. They will be sent to your room when you check in.( )41. When was the idea of building an ice hotel born?A. In 1970.B. In 1980.C. In 1990.D. In 2000.( )42. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A. What difficulties the builders have.B. Why people build the hotel in winter.C. The building process of the ICEHOTEL.D. The weather conditions in Jukkasjarvi.( )43. Which of the following words can be put into the blank in Paragraph 2?A. Location.B. Staff.C. Traffic.D. Nature.( )44. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A.

However, at that time the subject (被拍对象) had to keep still while a picture of it was taken. Few people had ever tried to take photos of moving subjects. The first man to do so was Eadweard Muybridge, a world-famous photographer. He created the first moving picture.When a horse is running, do all four hooves (蹄)ever leave the ground at the same time? That was the bet that a gentleman called Leland Stanford had with some of his friends. Most people believed that a horse always had one hoof on the ground, but Stanford didn’t think: so. Because a horse’s legs are moving so fast, it’s impossible to tell just by looking. Stanford needed a way to record the movement of a running horse. In 1872, Leland Stanford offered Eadweard Muybridge $25,000 to find the answer. Muybridge had no idea if he could successfully set up and perform an experiment to settle (解决) the bet, but he thought he should give it a try.In 1878,after years of experiments, Muybridge got what he wanted. He had a sequence (连续) of 12 images (图像), and one of them clearly showed all four of the horse’s hooves we re off the ground at the same time. In the end Muybridge collected his well-earned $25,000 from Stanford.Though Thomas Edison is usually considered as the person who created the first cine-camera (电影摄影机) in 1889, it was the work of Eadweard Muybridge and the bet that led to Edison’s invention.26. The underlined word “still” most probably means “________” in Chinese.A. 安逸的B. 平衡的C. 直立的D. 静止的27. Leland Stanford thought that ________.A. a horse always had one hoof on the ground while runningB. a horse had all 4 hooves off the ground at some point while runningC. it was possible for Eadweard Muybridge to make a moving pictureD. it was impossible for Eadweard Muybridge to make a moving picture28. Muybridge finally found the answer to the bet in ________.A. 1839B. 1872C. 1878D. 188729. Muybridge’s experiments proved that it was ________ who won the bet.A. StanfordB. Stanford’s friends.C. MuybridgeD. Muybridge’s friends30. The passage mainly tells us ________.A. that Thomas Edison created the first cine-cameraB. that Eadweard Muybridge created the first still picturesC. how photography helped people know more about animalsD. how Eadweard Muybridge got pictures of movement successfullyBWhy Should We Learn Body LanguageIn English classes, we spend a large amount of time studying grammar and learning new words. We work hard to improve our reading and listening skills. Few of us, however, pay enough attention to body language. So body language is not important, is it?The answer is, “Yes!” As the old saying goes, “Actions speak louder than words.” Sometimes, we can communicate things even without a single word. For example, shrug our shoulders (耸肩), and, without a word, we’ve just said, “I don’t know.”Body language can help us stress what we are saying. It can help us express our true, inner feelings. Moreover,body language can help us find out if someone is lying. Often, people who are lying do not make eye contact (接触). They may turn away or raise their shoulders because they are uncomfortable with the conversation.In job interviews, the interviewers can sometimes judge the interviewee before he or she speaks. Body language is important in our personal lives, too. It can show if you really care about your friends. Leaning forward into the conversation, for example, means you are interested in what is being said. Listening without making eye contact means you are not paying attention but are waiting for your turn to speak.Scientists have been studying body language for a long time. They say more than 70 percent of our messages are delivered (递送)through body language. Sometimes, body language is more accurate (精准的) than the words we use.So it is very important for us to learn body language. By understanding body language, we are less likely to be misunderstood. We will find it easier to get a job. We will also have lasting friendships.31. According to the first paragraph, in English classes, people do all of the following EXCEPT ________.A. studying grammarB. learning new wordsC. improving listening skillsD. practicing using body language32. According to the passage, in which of the following pictures is the woman saying, “I don’t know.”?A. B. C. D.33.
