But it can be more exciting if there are dolphins swimming around and jumping out of the 16 too. For many people, it would be a wonderful dream to swim with these lovely animals! 17 , this may not be good for dolphins. They may get 18 because of human interaction (互动).Dolphins are active and usually 19 food at night. In the day, they like to rest in shallow bays (浅湾). Many people think the dolphins are awake during the day as they swim. But when they sleep, they rest half of their brain and keep 20 half awake to breathe, so they may be sleeping even when they’re swimming in the water.The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) says disturbing ( 打扰) the animals in their near-shore habitat could 21 them swim to less favorable places, putting them at risk of attack by sharks and other animals.Moreover, when people are around, dolphins become more active. Thus, they can’t get enough 22 . “Disturbing their resting behaviors can 23 affect (影响) their long term health and the health of the dolph in population,” Ann Garrett of NOAA’s National MarineFisheries Service told the Associated Press.As a result, the NOAA wants to make rules to help 24 the dolphins.For example, the agency ( 机构) may stop people from 25 in shallow bays when the dolphins are resting. Tour operators must also be taught to watch for signs to know when the dolphins are in their resting state.16．A．beach B．pool C．river D．sea 17．A．Moreover B．However C．Also D．Otherwise 18．A．hurt B．angry C．relaxed D．worried 19．A．look at B．look after C．look for D．look out 20．A．other B．another C．the other D．the others 21．A．make B．encourage C．invite D．take 22．A．food B．space C．air D．sleep 23．A．really B．hardly C．never D．especially 24．A．feed B．raise C．disturb D．save 25．A．travelling B．fishing C．swimming D．resting三、阅读单选Months ago, the Chinese government allowed primary and high school students to have a spring or autumn break.Now most Chinese students only have holidays in summer and winter. During the holidays, some students stay at home doing their homework. Others travel with their family. How do kids in the US and UK spend their holidays? Let's take a look.US* Summer holiday: mid-June —early September* Christmas holiday: mid-December —early January* Thanksgiving holiday: one week in late November* Spring break: usually a 10-day holiday in mid-MarchSummer camp is one of kids’ favorite places to go. There, they can make new friends. They can also take part in some interesting activities like archery (射箭) and sailing. This helps them learn teamwork.Spring break can be a great time to travel. Middle school students usually travel with their parents. Beaches are one of their favorites.UK* Summer holiday: late July —September* Christmas holiday: mid-December —early January* Easter holiday: late March —mid-April* Autumn break: one week in OctoberBritish children like one-day trips during the summer holiday. They can visit museums, sports stadiums and castles.Christmas holiday is usually time for family get-togethers. Many people like travelling in Easter.26．American students cannot during summer camp.A．make new friends B．learn teamworkC．take part in activities D．travel with their parents27．is the longest holiday for students in the UK.A．Autumn break B．Easter holidayC．Summer holiday D．Christmas holidayThis is online discussion group where people can post comments (评论) about a topic.

There are many different types of music: slow and fast, serious and relaxing. We can choose the music to match our feelings. And second, music is fun. People enjoy playing drums (鼓) and using their energy!Scientists say that music helps children with language learning. Singing simple songs is good for young children. Music improves the ear —and we know that children who have studied music can learn foreign languages more easily and pronounce (发音) them much better. Students who have learnt to play music are also better at maths. This is not surprising, as music is mathematical, with notes in order. Playing music with other people also teaches children to work together. People who can play musical instruments ( 乐器) always have something they can do at a party. Older children who play in school orchestras (管弦乐队) enjoy school more and do not drop out of school early.You need a lot of practice to play an instrument, and it can be difficult to ask your child to spend hours at the piano or playing the guitar. So music practice should be a daily habit —for example, every day after school, but do not make the practice too long.Parents should listen to their children playing and tell them that they enjoy it. Practice should also be fun. It is also a good idea to finish the practice with a piece of music the child likes, and so learning music will be a pleasant (愉快的) part of the day.31．Which of the following can't music help children?A．Learn languages. B．Learn maths.C．Work together. D．Use energy.32．How often should children practice playing an instrument according to the article? A．Every day. B．Once a week.C．Once a month. D．Twice a week.33．What should parents do when their children are playing instruments?A．Do housework. B．Play with them.C．Give them advice.

It was a village in India. The people were poor. However, they were not unhappy. After all, their forefathers（祖先） had lived in the same way f or centuries.Then one day, some visitors from the city arrived. They told the villagers there were some people elsewhere who liked to eat frog's legs. However, they did not have enough frogs of their own, and so they wanted to buy frogs from other places.This seemed like money for nothing. There were millions of frogs in the fields around, and they were no use to the villagers. All they had to do was cat ch them. Agreement was reached, and the children were sent into the fields to catch frogs. Every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money. For the first time, the people were able to dream of a better future. But the dream didn't last long.No one noticed the change at first, but it seemed to be more insects around recently. So they had to use the money they made to buy pesticides(杀虫剂and medicines. Soon there was no money left.The change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if the crops were not doing so well. More worrying was that the children fell ill more often, an d, there seemed to be more insects around lately.Then the people realized what was happening. It was the frog. They hadn't been useless. They had been doing an important job-eating insects. Now wit h so many frogs killed, the insects were increasing more rapidly.
