Two members and one non﹣member should pay for the program.A.$690B. $710C. $730D. $750BMy challenge for you is this: to read a book for 15minutes every single day for a month.Let me explain a bit, by telling you where the challenge came from. I have many things in common with my dad, like music taste and sense of humor, but sadly reading isn't one of them.I can happily spend a whole day with a book, but my dad can't read a book for longer than about5 minutes. He reads emails, websites and papers for work, but not books. He's busy, so I think sitting down to read for just 15minutes a day is a good way to relax and to introduce him to reading.My dad is not the only person who avoids books. I know lots of people would rather relax on their computers or in front of the TV. Everyone is different and has their own interests, but Ithink there are lots of benefits to reading, which screen﹣based activities don't have.Firstly, it's better for your eyes. Looking at screens can be very stressful for your eye muscles, and clearly you should avoid looking at screens for an hour before bed, to get a good night's sleep.One thing I personally love reading, is being transported to another world﹣I often forget the time or things around me! Reading is a great way to switch off before you go to bed, because you think more about the world of the book, rather than the real world, so you can truly relax.I know you can be transported to a different world in a film or a TV show, but I think books do it better.I also enjoy hearing what people are doing and finding out what they think. Reading gives me the chance to get to know hundreds of new people! It also teaches you to see things from other people's point of view, and understand other people's decisions or opinions. With a book, you can hear everything a character is thinking or feeling﹣you really can be inside someone else's head!So give it a go! Take 15 minutes when you are waking up, going to bed, eating lunch, or having a coffee. If you read a lot, why not try 15 minutes of an English book, or pass the challenge on to someone else？Good luck, and happy reading!24.The author mentions his father in the text to show .A. his father is busyB. reading is importantC. his father likes readingD. many people have no habit of reading25.The author writes the text mainly basing on .A. his personal experienceB. some scientific experimentsC. his father's personal adviceD. knowledge from books26.The underlined word "it" in Paragraph 5 refers to .A. helping readers sleep wellB. making readers feel relaxedC. transporting readers to a different worldD. reminding readers of the real world27.What is the author's attitude to reading？A. Negative.B. Uncertain.C. Supportive.D. Doubtful.CKathy could still remember the night she had to leave her home in Hungary. It was the beginning of World War II and her family had to leave their country as soon as possible. She quickly filled a bag with a few pieces of clothing. her diary. and her treasure﹣a beautiful silk scarf.Kathy and her best friend. Monica. had asked their parents to buy them matching scarves. They each would wear the scarves as a symbol of their friendship. Kathy had no idea that she was going to America that night and would not be returning.Kathy kept that special silk scarf for many years. One day she decided to give it to her granddaughter. Eliza. to wear to her first job interview for good luck. Kathy was afraid that Eliza would lose the scarf. but the granddaughter promised. "Don't worry. Grandma. nothing's going to happen to your scarf. You'll see. It is going to bring both of us luck today." And with that. Eliza kissed her grandmother and left for the interview.That afternoon Eliza left the interview. feeling sure that she had got the job. So she decided to celebrate by going to a restaurant. As she was sitting at her table. she felt someone looking at her. Sitting next to her was an old woman. who could not take her eyes away from her."I'm sorry. do I know you？" Eliza asked."I'm sorry. dear. but you make me think of someone I once knew." the old woman replied. "My best friend looked like you and used to wear a scarf just like the one you're wearing around your neck." Eliza listened carefully. with her eyes and mouth wide open. She had heard stories of her grandmother's best friend and knew the meaning of the scarf. Could this be Monica. her grandmother's childhood friend？Eliza introduced herself and waited to hear the name of the other woman."My name's Monica. dear. I lived in Hungary as a child. but my family had to leave when I was fourteen years old. I've been living here in California ever since." said the old woman.Eliza could not believe her ears ……28.Kathy and her family left their country because .A. Kathy found a job in the USAB. Kathy would study in CaliforniaC. they had no friends in EuropeD. they wanted to get away from the war29..From the underlined sentence in Paragraph 6. we can infer（推断）that Eliza felt .A. surprisedB. thankfulC. sorryD. nervous30.What would Eliza most probably do after the dinner？A. She gave the silk scarf to Monica.B. She went for another job interview.C. She showed Monica around California.D. She took Monica to meet her grandmother.31.The best title for this passage can be .A. A Gift from ParentsB. A Scarf of LuckC. A Successful InterviewD. A Story in the WarDCan dogs and cats get along well in the same home？People who are thinking about getting a dog as a friend for their cat are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found that if the cat is taken back home before the dog. and if they are introduced when still young （less than 6 months for cats. a year for dogs）. it is highly probable that the two pets will get along smoothly. In two﹣thirds of the homes cats and dogs have a good relationship.However. it wasn't all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes. while aggression（侵略.好斗）and fighting were found in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body languages are just different. For example. when a cat turns its head away it means aggression. while a dog doing the same means submission（顺从）.In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully. researchers found a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each other's language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk "Dog". and dogs can learn how to talk "Cat".What's interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to become smarter. They can learn to read each other's body languages. suggesting that the two may have more in common than was expected. Once familiar with each other's body language. cats and dogs can play together. and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa.The importance of this research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets ﹣to people who don't get along well. including neighbors. colleagues at work. and even countries. If cats and dogs can learn to get along. surely people have a good chance.32.Some cats and dogs may fight when .A. they are cold to each otherB. they look away from each otherC. they are introduced at an early ageD. they misunderstand each other's body languages33.What is found surprising about cats and dogs?A.They learn to speak each other`s language.B.They watch each other`s behaviors.C.They eat and sleep together.D.They know something from each other`s voices.34. It is suggested in Paragraph4 that cats and dogsA.have common interests.B.are less different than was thought.C.have a common body language.D.are not so smart as was expected.35.What can we human beings learn from cats and dogs？A. We should learn to get along well with others.B. We should know more about animals.C. We should live in peace with animals.D. We should learn more body languages.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分.满分10分）根据短文内容.从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项。

When I think more about this word, I picture someone who has accomplished good things for people and tries to do the right thing. Hattie Elizabeth Alexander is one person whom I find to be very heroic.Hattie was born in Baltimore, Maryland on April 5, 1901. During her time at College she earned her Bachelor's Degree in Bacteriology and Physiology. After that, Hattie attended Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and received her medical degree.After her education, she pursued her career, and after much time and hard work, she drastically reduced the number of infants (幼儿) dying from meningitis (脑膜炎). Hattie was very devoted to her work and helped at as many locations as she could. Spending much of her time in the lab, Hattie successfully developed a cure against the disease, which decreased the death rate to 20 percent. At the same time, she was also a teacher working with Columbia University.She was a caring lady interested in other people's lives. When she was teaching at Columbia University, other members would talk to her about students that were failing their classes, and somehow Hattie could always find convincing reasons as to why they should not be driven away. Later, Hattie became an instructor in Pediatrics at New York City's Babies Hospital. After many honors, she became the first woman president of the American Pediatric Society in 1965.Hattie is my hero because her positive attitude and strength helped her accomplish great things for others. She gave them her strength by developing medicines againstdiseases, which, by doing so, made them stronger. This is what makes Hattie Elizabeth Alexander my hero.4.According to the text, Hattie Elizabeth Alexander ________.A. cared a lot about others' private livesB. received her Bachelor's Degree in Johns Hopkins SchoolC. spent all her time in the lab developing cures for illnessesD. always tried her best to stop students from dropping out of college5.What does the underlined word "drastically" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. slightlyB. hardlyC. greatlyD. totally6.Hattie is considered to be a hero by the author because ________.A. she was the first woman President of APSB. she was a hardworking, caring and honorable personC. she was a very famous woman doctor with many honorsD. she was the lady who helped many students receive higher education7.What is the text mainly about?A. Helping others is a must in a lifetime.B. My Hero—Hattie Elizabeth Alexander.C. The First Woman President of the APS.D. Pursuing one's career with high education.CTeenagers who travel around the world alone have been making headlines quite often.A young person alone in a dangerous situation attracts attention and sponsors. Young sailors also attract various views. For example, Jessica Watson was asked by the government to cancel her voyage, yet the Prime Minister called her "a hero for young Australians" when she returned. It seemed there is confusion about the competence and independence of young people.The popular psychologists tell us that teenage brains are likely to make wrong judgments. But such ideas often do not apply to specific individuals. Between the ages of 14 and 18, teenagers vary greatly in their abilities. The amount of independence that each is allowed should be determined not simply by their age but by discussion with the related, responsible adults. Some teens are certainly inexperienced and capable ofchildish mistakes, but the ones who attempt dangerous journeys normally do so by winning the confidence of hard-headed and well-qualified adult supporters.But it's also wrong to think that any 16-year-old can desire to get achievements as unusual as Jessica Watson's. Watson calls herself "an ordinary girl who had a dream". Her intention is to encourage teenagers but this idea can have the opposite effect of making them feel not good enough because great achievements are beyond them. Should all teens have such dreams? Actually, individuals face varying circumstances that restrict their dreams.Teenagers who travel around the world alone should not be judged by preconceived (事先形成的）views about young people. Nor should young "ordinary" teenagers feel pressure to long for extraordinary personal goals. In fact, I believe the example of solo sailing overstresses individualism. The teenage years are when most of us "ordinary" people learn that we can achieve great things in cooperation with others.8.Why is Jessica Watson mentioned in the first paragraph?A. To praise Jessica's great achievement.B. To point out the media's interest in young people.C. To introduce a divided idea about young people's adventures.D. To show the Prime Minister's attitude against the government.9.What can be inferred about teenagers from the text?A. They need supports of responsible adults.B. Their abilities vary with the level of independence.C. They tend to make wrong decisions between 14 and 18.D. Their attempts in dangerous journeys prove their lacking experience.10.What does Jessica mean by calling herself "an ordinary girl who had a dream"?A. Dreams need encouragement.B. Teenagers should have wild dreams.C. Everyone would accomplish what Jessica has done.D. Ordinary teens could also make great achievements.Ⅰ、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Road Trip Planning There are so many things to consider when planning a road trip, especially if you want to make it a great one.

On third day, our bus pulled into a motorway service station. Our guide told us we wouldn't stop again that day, so we had to eat a meal in the only restaurant here. There was a problem. When I asked about fish, in my terrible French, the assistant thought I wanted chickens. Anyway, ten minutes late, I got my meal. I thought the food would be dull, what wasn't the case at all. Wonderfully cooking, it tasted delicious andhad been nothing in common with my motorway food elsewhere. Maybe I shouldn't have been so surprising as this, after all, was France.Ⅰ、书面表达（本大题共1小题，共25.0分）假定你是李华，你的英国朋友Jack打算寒假来中国跟你一起旅行，请你拟定一份旅游计划，然后给他写一封信，要点如下：(1)你拟定的旅行计划：北京—泰山—杭州；(2)征求他的建议。

AJanet Guthrie and Danica Patrick, first female Indy competitor and winnerNo complaints about woman drivers. Janet Guthrie, an space engineer who was training to be an astronaut, turned to car racing when she was cut from the space program for not having completed her doctors degree. In 1977, Guthrie became the first female Indy 500 competitor. She didn’t take the lead, but Danica Patrick did. In 2005 and in 2008, Patrick became the first woman ever to win an Indy Car Series. Raymonde de Laroche, first female licensed pilotA former actress who'd been born Elise Raymonde Deroche in Paris in 1882, Raymonde de Laroche was inspired to take up flying after seeing the Wright Brothersflight demonstrations in 1907 in France. Though she wasn’t the first female pilot, de Laroche was the first woman to earn a pilot’s li cense in 1910.Gertrude Ederle, first woman to swim across the English ChannelOn August 6. 1926. Gertrude Caroline Ederle became the first woman to swim across the English Channel. Ederle, who lived to be 98 and died in 2003, was also an Olympic swim champion and five-time world record-holder in five swimming eventsKathrine Switzer, Nina Kuscik and Joan Benoit, first major female marathoners.In 1967, 20-year-old Kathrine Switzer became the first woman to run in the Boston Marathon, even though race officials had tried to stop her. Nina Kuscik became the first woman to officially win the Boston Marathon, 1972. In 1984, American Joan Benoit became the first winner of the Women’s Olympic Marathon, finishing 400 meters ahead of Norway's Grete Waitz1．Why was Janet Guthrie forbidden to take up space program?A．She used to be a woman driver.B．She showed interested in car racing.C．She was employed as an engineer.D．She didn't gain doctors degree.2．What made Raymonde de Laroche decide to become a pilot?A．Her experience as an actress.B．Her settlement in Paris.C．Wright Brothers influence.D．Wright Brothers dialogues.3．What's the similarity between Gertrude Ederle and Kathrine Switzer?A．They were athletic B．They lived a long life.C．They had a higher fame. D．They were looked down upon.BEverybody hates rats. But in the earthquake capitals of the world-Japan, Los Angeles, Turkey - rats will soon be man’s new best friends.What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue dogs.Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives.They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they can’t get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat.How does it work? First, the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens, the rat’s brain gives a signal. This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals.When the rat’s brain activity jumps, the rescuers know that someone is alive.The rat has smelled that person.Although there are already robots which can do this job, rats are better. Christian Linster at Cornell University, New York, says, “Robots’ noses don’t work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that.” Rats can also see in the dark.They are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs, and unlike robots, they don’t need electricity!The “rat project” is not finished, but Julie Ryan of International Rescue Corps in Scotland says, “It would be fantastic.A rat could get into spaces we couldn’t get to, and a rat would get out if it wasn’t safe.” Perhaps for the first time in history, people will be happy to see a rat in a building (but only after an earthquake, of course).4．In the world earthquake capitals, rats will become popular because they can .A．get into small spacesB．take the place of man’s rescue jobsC．find food for survivors trapped in buildingsD．find the position of survivors trapped in buildings5．From the third paragraph we know rescuers can judge a person is alive by .A．the noise made by the rat B．the rat’s unusual behaviourC．the signal sent by the radio on the rat D．the smell given off by the person trapped6．After reading the passage we know that now .A．people still use dogs and robots in rescue workB．the “rat project” has been completed alreadyC．rats have replaced dogs in searching for peopleD．people are happy to see a rat in a building7．The main idea of the passage is about_______in an earthquake.A．dos and don’ts B．the role rats will playC．ways of rescuing people D．the reason for not using dogsCFor several months, Cara has been working up the courage to talk to her mom about what she saw on Instagram. Not long ago, the 11-year-old girl discovered that her mom had been posting her photos for much of her life. “It’s strange to see myself up there, and sometimes there are pictures I don’t like of myself,” she said.Like most other modern kids, Cara grew up under the influence of socialmedia.Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube were all founded before she was born. Instagram has existed since she was a toddler. Although many kids may not yet have accounts (账户) themselves, their parents, schools, sports teams have been organizing an online one for them since birth. It is a shock to know that details about their lives have been shared online without their permission or knowledge. And this has become a common experience for many teenagers.Recently a parenting blogger (博主) said that despite her 14-year-old daughter’s horror at discovering that her mother had shared years of highly personal information about her online, she simply could not stop doing it.But it’s not just crazy mommy bloggers who share their children’s information on social media. P lenty of average parents do the same. There’s even a special word for it: sharenting. Almost a quarter of children begin their digital lives when parents upload their prenatal sonogram scans (产前超声波扫描) to the Internet, according toa study conducted by the Internet-security company AVG. The study also found that92 percent of kids under the age of 2 already have their own unique online identity(身份).8．What does the underlined word “toddler” in the second paragraph probably mean? A．Teenage girl. B．Very young child.C．Elementary school student. D．High school student.9．What’s Cara’s attitude towards her mom’s posting?A．Supportive. B．Doubtful.C．Negative. D．Uninteresting.10．What can we infer from Paragraph 4?A．AVG is the name of an Internet company.B．About 25% of children begin their digital lives before they are born. C．Fathers don’t like to share their kids’ information on social media.D．Average parents created the word “sharenting” on the Internet recently. 11．What can be a suitable title for the article?A．Growing up on the Internet B．A New Word BornC．Parents Lost in Blogging D．The Children’s HorrorDWhile elephants born without tusks (长牙)are not unheard of，they normally form just 2 to 6 percent of the population. However, that is not the case at Mozambique’s Gorongosa National Park, where an astonishing 33 percent of female elephants born after the country’s civil war ended in 1992 are tuskless. While that may appear to be just a coincidence, Joyce Poole, an elephant behavior expert, has another theory. The researcher thinks we may be witnessing unnatural evolution of the species due to the constant hunting of elephants for valuable ivory.Poole says before the country’s 15-year-long civil war, the 100,000-acre park was home to over 4,000 elephants. However, by the time the conflict ended in 1992, about 90 percent of them had been killed for ivory to help finance weapons (武器)and meat to feed the soldiers. Of the less than 200 survivors, over 50 percent of adult females had no tusks. Therefore, it is not surprising that the park’s tuskless elephant population has grown greatly.This is not the first time researchers have observed a great change in the population of elephants. At Zambia’s South Luangwa National Park and Lupande Game Management Area， areas which were heavily hunted in the 1970s and 1980s, 35% of elephants 25 years or older and 13% of those younger than 25 are now without tusks. A 2008 study published found that the number of tuskless females at the Ruaha National Park in Tanzania went from 10.5 percent in 1969 to almost 40 percent in 1989, largely due to illegal hunting for ivory.The recent ban on ivory in both the US and China should help get rid of, or at least reduce, elephant hunting. However, scientists are not sure how long it will take for elephants with a higher rate of tuskless females, to change the trend.12．What is the probable cause of the phenomenon mentioned in Paragraph 1 ? A．Illegal hunting. B．Constant farming.C．A pure coincidence. D．Natural evolution.13．Why did people kill so many elephants during the civil war in Mozambique?A．To get funds by selling ivory.B．To develop new weapons.C．To provide food for local people.D．To make ivory products.14．Which of the following had the earliest record on tuskless elephants?A．Gorongonsa National Park.B．South Luangwa National Park.C．The Ruaha National Park.D．Lupande Game Management Area.15．What does the underlined phrase “the trend” in the last paragraph refer to?A．Elephants facing greater danger.B．Elephants growing more slowly.C．Fewer female elephants staying alive.D．More female elephants being tuskless.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Sometimes the cars can hardly move for a long time. The terr ible traffic is caused by poor road and the government’s ability to deal with so many cars on the road at the same time.With more Chinese people buying cars every day, the problem seems to only be getting worse. But a design company called Shenzhen Hashi Future Parking Equipment has a possible solution: the super bus.The super bus will carry up to 1,400 people. It’ll travel on a rail system that will be raised above the roads, so cars can drive under it. The bus will run on electricity and solar power, creating far less pollution than that from the cars.Beijing authorities(当局) haven’t decided whether to create railway for the super bus all over the city. But they are willing to give it a test the super bus with passengers.According to the government, Beijing might have had five million cars on the road by the end of 2010. So it seems to be necessary to start taking the super bus instead soon.( )36. What cause the terrible traffic in Beijing?A. The busesB. The roadsC. The polution( )37. What is Shenzhen Hashi Future Parking Equipment?A. A design companyB.A super busC.A kind of equipment( )38. Which of the following is TRUE about the super bus?A. It’ll produce more pollution.B. It’ll run only on electricity.C. It’ll travel above the roads.( )39. The fourth paragraph mainly talks about_______.A. the problems of the super busB. the test drive of the super busC. the reasons of the terrible traffic( )40. The passage mainly talks about ______ in Beijing.A.the trafficB. the driversC.the roadBThe cost of medical care in the United States is very high. The time or money that doctors spend on their medical education is probably one reason for this problem.A visit to doctor’s office costs from fifteen to fifty dollars. For some people it is impossible to pay for the medical care they need. Many people in the United States think that doctors are over-paid. Most doctors however, disagree. They say that they are required to study medicine for a long time. Tuition for many years of medical education costs a lot of money. Doctors say that it is necessary for most medical students to borrow money from a bank to pay their tuition（学费）. Because this money must be repaid to the bank, young doctors need a lot of money for their work. So, they charge people high prices for medical care.Therefore, it is possible that the high cost of medical care in America is unnecessary. Because high tuition is one cause of high costs, one way to lower costs would be to have medical schools that are free or have low cost tuition.( )41. Some people do not have their medical care they need because_______.A. they don’t want to spend much money on it.B. they don’t thinks it necess ary to have medical careC. they have n’t got enough money to pay for it( )42. The reason for the high medical cost mentioned in the article is that________.A. tuition in medical schools is highB. the price of medicine is highC. doctors must pay money to banks( )43. One way to lower the cost of medical care would be ________.A. not to see a doctorB. to pay doctors less moneyC. to let medical students have free or partly free medical education( )44. The main idea of the article is that______.A. a visit to a doctor’s office may cost as much as $15to $50 in USAB. the high cost of tuition in medical schools is one reason for the high cost of medicalcareC. medical care in USA costs a lot of money because doctors want to be rich( )45. The cost of medical care in the USA is very high. What does the writer think about it?A. He agrees that doctors are overpaid.B. He thinks it a big problem and suggests a way to settle it.C. He doesn’t think the medical students should borrow money from banks.哈32中2012～2013学年度上学期期中考试英语试题答题卡（考试范围：必修一Module1-4 适用班级：高一普班，体育班）选择题1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45非选择题（共35分）四、单词拼写（每小题1分，共10分）1.距离 6.调查2.沙漠7.家乡3.旅程8.买得起4.交换v. 9.打扰5.风景10.职业五、单句改错（每小题1分，共10分）1.After a hour we began to feel frightened.2.The more money you make, the most you spend.3.

The air hostess spoke to her，but the old lady said，“I have never been in a plane before ，and I am frightened. I am going to keep this blanket over my head until we are back on the ground again ！”Then the captain came. He said，“Madam，I am the captain of this plane. The weather is fine，there are no clouds in the sky，and everything is going very well. ”But she continued to hide.So the captain turned and started to go back. Then the old lady looked out from under the blanket with one eye and said，“I am sorry，young man，but I don’t like planes and I am never going to fly again. But I’ll say one thing，”She continued kindly，“You and your wife keep your plane very clean！”1. An old lady had _________ .A. glassesB. a blanket over her headC. a coatD. a basket2. _________ spoke to her .A. The air hostessB. The man next to herC. her husbandD. one of her friends3.

I was soembarrassed(尴尬的).However，after we returned home，she began to arrange the flowers she had received.“Mom，I’m sorry，”I told her.“I can’t believe how skimpy that bouquet is.”She looked at me and smiled.“It’s okay，”she said.“It allows me to better enjoy the beauty of each one.”Mom’s words helped me to re alize something bigger and more important－when we have too many good things，we often fail to enjoy the beauty of each one.Thanks，Mom，for helping me understand that less is sometimes more.5．According to Paragraph 1，which of the following is true?A．The author’s mother put fresh flowers on the author’s coffee table.B．The author used to buy some fresh flowers on her way home.C．The author’s mother usually bought flowers for her daughter.D．The author and her mother shared a beautiful garden.6．The author bought her mother flowers to.A．celebrate the coming ChristmasB．express thanks for all her mother’s doneC．bring more flowers to her mother’s gardenD．arrange her mother’s new house7．The underlined word “skimpy” in Paragraph 4 means.A．beautiful B．colorful C．cheap D．small8．What did the author learn from her mother?A．How to grow flowers.

The nation was recently named to host this important sporting event.It will be the first Olympics held in South America.The games will take place in Rio de Janeiro(里约热内卢).The city beat out thre e other sites，Madrid，Tokyo and Chicago，to host the event.When the International Olympic Committee chose Riode Janeiro，cheering people flooded the city’s streets.“This is huge for Rio and for the whole country，”says resident Sueli Ferreira.The Olympics are expected to attract tens of thousands of people.Brazilian officials have already started to prepare for the crowds. “We know what we need to do，”explains Brazil’s president，Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.“The words from now on are work，work and work.”Officials want to fix up local sports centers before Rio de Janeiro steps into the spotlight.They also want to reduce the amount of crime.They hope hosting the games will improve life in Brazil .About 30 percent of people there live in poverty，or poor conditions.Tourism during the Olympics is expected to create more than 2 million jobs. “It’s going to be good f or the economy(经济)，good for the people，” Ferreira says.“This gives us hope that things will be better here.”9．According to the passage，the 2016 Olympics will be held in.A．Europe B．AsiaC．North America D．South America10．The feeling of Brazilians can be described as.A．proud B．surprisedC．worried D．nervous11．The underlined word “flooded” in Paragraph 3 means.A．crossed B．filledC．visited D．cleanedDDick lived in England.
