Fathers not only lead their children into their social circle but also teach them how to act and control their feelings.For example, Microsoft founder Bill Gates was quiet and didn't like to talk with others when he was a little kid. So his father often held family parties and let Bill play games with family members. "Games like soccer and swimming seemed to be silly at that time but they improved my ability of leading and cooperating(合作)," Gates once said in an interview(采访) with US Fortune magazine.US actor Will Smith learned important lessons from small things taught by his father. His father once planned to pull down a wall of their shop and rebuild it. But little Will thought it was impossible. After a year and a half, they did it. "You don't try to build a wall. You are going to lay a brick(砖) every day.

But now Hull has beenselected as one of the world’s top 10 cities to visit in travel guidecompany Rough Guides’ list.The city in the English county of Yorkshire was honored 12 years afterthe book Crap Towns named it as the worst place in Britain to live. Butwhy has the opinion of Hull changed so much? One of the biggestreasons is the appreciation (赞赏) of its many cultural attractions, just intime for Hull to be the UK’s City of Culture in 2017. On its website, Rough Guides explained why it had chosen Hull in its list. “It’ll be full of new hotels and restaurants, and even more of thathome-grown creativity (创造力) the city has alwa ys had,” It wrote.“There are atmospheric (有情调的) old-timey pubs, eight excellent museums and a beautiful Old Town.”Indeed, Hull is famous for its historical pubs, like Ye Olde White Harte, the place where the decision to start the English Civil Wars of 1642 to 1651 was taken. But it is not just known as a city of pubs nowadays.Hull is now praised for its buildings, too, like the interesting design of the Scale Lane Bridge, known as the “pinball flipper (弹球板)” because it looks like part of a pinball machine. Hull’s biggest tourist attraction, the aquarium and museum known as “The Deep”, is also well -known for the design of its glass and aluminum (铝) building. The aquarium, which opened in 2002, was designed by Sir Terry Farrell to look like a big shark’s he ad.This year’s cultural events will end with the 2016 September Freedom Festival, when the whole city will be turned into a stage for performers and artists from Sept 2 to 4. The event’s website describes it as a mixture of “theater, music, comedy, poetry (诗歌) and outdoor performance aimed at a wide audience of all ages”. What could be a better way to celebrate the city’s amazing journey from bottom to top?1.According to the text, Hull ______.A. can now be found in the English book Crap TownsB. is just famous for its old-fashioned pubsC. has made its name with its new hotels and restaurantsD. has made a lot of improvements in its cultural scene2. According to the author, the buildings in Hull ______.A. have attracted people with their designsB. have been rebuilt on the sites of historical buildingsC. have all been inspired by animals in their designsD. are known for their special building materials3. What can we conclude about the September Freedom Festival?A. All the performances will be staged indoors.B. The event will offer a great variety of performances.C. Hull organizes similar cultural events all year round.D. Young people will be the main audience for this event.4. The author wrote this article mainly to ______.A. tell people not to miss Hull when they tour the UKB. ask other cities to learn from Hull’s experienceC. explain what is behind Hull’s big changeD. invite people to join in with the 2016 September Freedom FestivalB词数399 建议阅读时间8分钟HOW much did you eat at home with your familyduring the Spring Festival holiday? You may feel likeyour stomach is going to explode, but that is notsurprising, as the science website Nova has pointedout that the human stomach may not have as muchspace as you might think.Scientist Brooke Harcourt from the MurdochChildren’s Research Institute in Australia said a“resting” stomach cavity (腔) is about the size of ahand making a fist (拳头), though it can easily stretch(拉伸) to hold up to four liters of food and liquid (液体).That uncomfortable feeling after overeating is caused by the stomach pressing into the organs (器官) around it, including the liver (肝脏), diaphragm and lungs. “In a bad case it can mean it gets harder to breathe,” Harcourt said.As it is just below the rib cage (胸腔), there is little room for the stomach to grow into – other than outwards.“As it starts to grow we get what we sometimes call a ‘food baby’,” Harcourt said.But the food baby can only grow so big.Any more than four liters of food and liquid in the stomach can cause a gag reflex (呕吐反射), when the digestive (消化的) system works backward. This means that before you know it, you see your lunch again. Not pretty.Harcourt said the gag reflex comes not just because the stomach is full, but also because levels of acid (酸) get higher as hydrochloric (盐酸的) acid comes in to help digest food.Overeating can also cause heartburn because acid goes up into the oesophagus (食道). In addition, people burp (打嗝) as the body tries to get rid of the air that was taken in while eating.If you want to avoid overeating, Harcourt said the trick is to listen to your body.“You can also have a glass of water before the meal, so you are already feeling a little full,” she said. “The water also starts digestion.”Drinking when you’re hungry isn’t such a crazy idea – Harcourt said that in 80 percent of cases, when people think they’re hungry, they’re actually thirsty. “We just have to try listen to our bodies,” she added.So perhaps you should have a drink before your next feast – you might st op a “food baby” being born!1.We feel uncomfortable after overeating because _______.。

一、选择题1．—I love pop music ________ folk (民间的) music.—I see. But I think folk music is better.A．because of B．except for C．instead of C解析：C【详解】句意：——我喜欢流行音乐而不是民间音乐。

——我明白了。

但是我认为民间音乐更好。

A. because of 因为；B. except for除了；C. instead of代替，而不是，根据 But I think folk music is better，可知表示替代或转折关系，故答案选C。

2．—I wonder if you ______ to the school concert tomorrow.—If I ______, I will go with pleasure.A．go; am invited B．will go; was invited C．will go; am invited D．go; will be invited C 解析：C【详解】句意：——我想知道你明天是否去听学校音乐会。

——如果我被邀请，我会很乐意去的。

第一空是if引导的宾语从句，时间状语是tomorrow可知用一般将来时，其结构是will+动词原形。

排除AD；第二空是if引导的条件状语从句，遵循主句用一般将来时，从句用一般现在时态，这里是被邀请，用一般现在时态的被动语态，其结构是be done的形式，主语是I，be动词用am。

根据题意，故选C。

【点睛】条件从句 If＋一般现在时;主句主语＋shall/will+动词原形用法 (1)条件状语从句通常由连词if引导,意为“如果、假如”,主句不能用be going to表示将来,而应该用shall,will.。

(2)if “如果”,引导条件状语从句,主句用一般将来时,从句则用一般现在时另外,主句是祈使句或含有情态动词,从句也用一般现在时。

Because goals can help you do and experience everything you want in life. Instead of just letting life happen to you ,goals allow you to make your life happen.Successful people in life imagine how their life should be and set lots of goals.1 It’s like having a sign to show you where you want to go. Think of it this way. There are two drivers.One has a place to go to clearly in mind which can be found on a map. He can drive straight there surely without any wastedtime. The other driver has no goal, or a map. 2 But he drives aimlessly 漫无目的地around, never getting anywhere, just using up oil. Which driver do you want to be?3 They decide what they want in life and then get there by setting goals and making plans. Unsuccessful people usually just let life happen by accident. Goals aren’t difficult to reach.4 You are the one who must decide what to achieve and in what direction to aim your life.Research tells us that when we write a goal down we are more likely to achieve it. 5 They are harder to forget. Also when you write your goals in your own way, you are able to make yourself realize situations that will bring you nearer to your goal.A.Written goals can be reviewed usually.B.He starts off at the same time from the same place.C.It’s up to you to find out what your goals really are.D.By setting goals you are taking control of your life.E.Winners in life set goals and follow through on them.任务型阅读二Percentages（百分比）of Oversea Chinese Students Study in Different AreasDo you dream of exciting places, romantic languages and delicious food?

Furthermore, it can be very expensive to study abroad.Actually, Chinese education is becoming more open. So before making a decision, seriously consider whether it’s worth spending so much to take that challenge.

Does Canada have more oversea Chinese students than Japan?3.What is the advantage of studying abroad according to the passage?(One example is OK.)4.
