This date was the old midwinter festival in preChristian times, around the time of the longest night and the shortest day. Christmas in the 21st century has many traditions.Shops can make about 60 percent of their year’s income in the three months before Christmas. So most shops get ready for it in October. The shopping centres are beautifully decorated and stay open late at night. The first time this happened was in 1867 when Macy’s, a famous shop in New York, stayed open until midnight on Christmas Eve (24th December).By midDecember, almost every house, shop and street has a Christmas tree. This tradition was started by the Germans as early as 700 AD. In the northern countries of the world, winter is cold and dark and most trees lose their leaves. The beautiful green trees decorated with lights and coloured glass balls give people hope that spring will come again.Father Christmas is known across the world with his white hair, red coat and big bag of toys. Young children are told that he lives in the north of Finland and makes toys for them. By tradition, he brings the toys to children at midnight, on the night before Christmas.On Christmas day a traditional meal is eaten, usually turkey and a rich, spicy cake. Some people hate Christmas. Others feel it is a magical and exciting time. They love seeing family and friends; they also love the traditions. Love it or hate it, Christmas is a time to look back over the old year and forward to the new one. 1.Christmas has been celebrated .A.for over 3,000 yearsB.for over 1,600 yearsC.since the start of the 21st centuryD.for 400 years2.Christmas is important for shops because .A.they can stay open laterB.they are beautifully decoratedC.much of the income is madeD.more people go shopping3.Christmas trees are popular because .A.they make people think of GermanyB.they are easy and cheap to getC.they lose their leaves in winterD.they make people think of spring4.Which of the following statements cannot be known?A.On Christmas day people love to visit friends.B.

Unit 3 Sports and fitnessUnit 3 Reading for Writing1、 For Canaan Elementary's second grade in Patchogue, N. Y., today is speech day, and right now it's Chris Palaez's turn. The 8-year-old is the joker of the class. With shining dark eyes, he seems like the kind of kid who would enjoy public speaking.But he's nervous. "I'm here to tell you today why you should …should …" Chris trips on the "-Id," a pronunciation difficulty for many non-native English speakers. His teacher, Thomas Whaley, is next to him, whispering support. "...Vote for...me…" Except for some stumbles, Chris is doing amazingly well. When he brings his speech to a nice conclusion, Whaley invites the rest of the class to praise him.A son of immigrants, Chris started learning English a little over three years ago. Whaley recalls (回想起) how at the beginning of the year, when called upon to read, Chris would excuse himself to go to the bathroom.Learning English as a second language can be a painful experience. What you need is a great teacher who lets you make mistakes. "It takes a lot for any student," Whaley explains, "especially for a student who is learning English as their new language, to feel confident enough to say, 'I don't know, but I want to know.'"Whaley got the idea of this second-grade presidential campaign project when he asked the children one day to raise their hands if they thought they could never be a president. The answer broke his heart. Whaley says the project is about more than just learning to read and speak in public. He wants these kids to learn to boast (夸耀) about themselves."Boasting about yourself, and your best qualities," Whaley says, "is very difficult for a child who came into the classroom not feeling confident."1. What made Chris nervous?A. Telling a story.B. Making a speech.C. Taking a test.D. Answering a question.2. What does the underlined word "stumbles" in paragraph 2 refer to?A. Improper pauses.B. Bad manners.C. Spelling mistakes.D. Silly jokes.3. We can infer that the purpose of Whaley's project is to_________.A. help students see their own strengthsB. assess students' public speaking skillsC. prepare students for their future jobsD. inspire students9 love for politics4. Which of the following best describes Whaley as a teacher?A. Humorous.B. Ambitious.C. Caring.D. Demanding.2、Some educators told us that more years of school could help students get higher scores on intelligence tests. That was a finding of a study of teenage males in some countries. Now, another research shows that physical activity may help students do better in their classes.The research comes as educators in some countries are reducing time for activities like physical education. They are using the time instead for academic (学术的) subjects like math and reading. The studies appeared between 2008 and 2014. They included more than 55,000 children, aged 6 to 18.Amika Singh: "According to the results of our study, we can conclude that being physically active is beneficial to academic performance. There are, first, Physiological explanations, like more blood flow, and so more oxygen to the brain. Being physically active means there are more hormones (荷尔蒙) Produced like endorphins (内啡肽). And endorphins make your stress level lower and your mood improved, which means you also perform better."Also, students taking part in organized sports learn rules and how to follow them. This could improve their classroom behavior and help them keep their mind on their work.The study leaves some questions unanswered, however. Ms Stash says it is not possible to say whether the amount or kind of activity affected the level of academic improvement. This is because of differences among the studies.The researchers said they found only two high-quality studies. They needed more high-quality studies to confirm (证实) their findings. They also pointed out that "results for other parts of the world may be quite different".Still, the general finding was that physically active kids are more likely to do better in school. Ms Singh says schools should consider that finding before they cut physical education programs. Her paper on "Physical Activity and Performance at School" is published in the Archives of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine.1.The passage mainly tells us that _______.A.a research on physical education has been done by the researchersB.there is a possibility that physical activity leads to higher gradesC.the amount or kind of activity directly affects academic levelD.the research shows that the children aged 6 to 18 don9t do sports2.Which of the following is TRUE?A.Being mentally active is good for academic subjects.B.The more hormones you have, the more stressed you will get.C.The researchers have found many high-quality studies to prove the research.D.The educators in some countries think studies, not exercise, mean much to students.3.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 6 probably means_______.A.good marks result from high-quality studyB.findings are probably different in different areasC.physical activity will spread all over the worldD.academic performance depends on the surroundings4.What's the purpose of writing the passage?A.To call our attention to the sports at school.B.To introduce alltypes of physical activities.C.To represent the academic performance.D.To improve students' health.3、 Good health and fitness are important to us. ①_______ However, just a few minutes of exercise a day can actually improve one's health. Whether it's a simple five-minute walk or a long hike in the woods, exercise can be good for you in many ways. Here are some tips to help you get fit and healthy.②_______ Short-term goals are easy to achieve. Long-term goals will take you out of your comfort zone. For a short-term goal, you should drink one green drink every day. A long-term goal would be to train for a 5K run or an even more difficult task.Get support from other people. Reaching out to others who share similar goals will help you reach your goals faster. Join a Weight Watchers group or a local walk or running club in your area. ③_______ Find an online weight loss forum(论坛) for support.Work out while you're doing something else. Any activity that requires you to move your body is considered a workout. ④_______ Walk around in the room while you're watching TV. You can also run on the treadmill(跑步机) while reading some news.⑤_______ Eight glasses of water a day will keep you healthy and help you take off weight. Always carry a water-filled bottle on hand if you run outdoors. Choose a balanced meal when ordering takeout or dining out. You can choose what kinds of food you eat. When you dine out or get takeout, choose healthy food. If you're out having beef, choose vegetables or a salad on your side instead of fries or mashed potatoes.A. Drink and eat healthily.B. Join a gym or take a yoga class.C. Set short-term and long-term goals.D. Try your best to achieve your goals.E. Turn to other people for help when necessary.F. Do the activities that you can do at the same time.G. But many people feel there's just not enough time.4、假设你叫李华,是一家英文杂志社的心理咨询师。

Unit 3 Sports and fitnessUnit 3 Discovering Useful Structures & Listening and Talking1、For most of us, swinging(摆动)360 degrees around the spindle(轴)of a swing set is a distant childhood dream, but for some people in Estonia, it’s what they never grow out of. Not only do they still love struggling against gravity (重力),but they actually have created a competitive sport around their favorite entertainment. That sport is known as “kiiking”.Swings are deep in Estonian culture, and you can still find various types of swings in villages and towns all around the country. They are used by children and adults alike, either for simple fun,or as a way for communities to bond during celebrations. So maybe it doesn’t come as a big surprise that Estonia has an extreme s port based on swinging. Some people see it as dull, others as pointless, but to those who practice it, kiiking is the coolest thing in the world.The rules of kiiking are pretty simple. Competitors start swinging at a certain height, and if they can complete a full circuit(圈)around the spindle, they can try to do the same after the swing has been raised a little, and so on. Those who fail to do a full spindle are left with the result of their last successful try.Watching kiiking videos might give you the impression that it’s an easy sport,but Laansalu,who has been practicing it since she was 8 years old, says it requires both great physical strength一strong legs and strong arms一and technique一knowing when to stand or sit in the swing chair, when to push yourself over the spindle of the swing and how to avoid injury.Small groups of kiikers have been appearing in other countries, including the United States,but now it is still considered as an Estonian sport. There are no international kiiking competitions yet, but Estonia has several national kiiking events throughout the year.1. What can we know about kiiking?A. Ai is very easy and safe.B. It is intended for children.C. It is an international sport.D. It is developed from swinging.2. What should competitors pay attention to in kiiking according to the text?A.The strength of the swing.B.The way to push themselves.C.The time to stand or sit on the swing.D.The position where they end the sport.3.What decides the success in kiiking?A.The number of circuits he completes.B.The height where he completes a full circuit.C.How long it takes to complete a full circuit.D.How long he performs on the swing.2、 Thanks to a successful crowd-funding campaign, Dion Leonard, an extreme marathon runner is adopting a stray pup (流浪狗) he met while running a 155-mile race in the Gobi desert in China. The fiinds (基金) that were raised will help cover medical expenses so that the dog can be transported from China to Leonard’s home of Edinburgh, Scotland.The female dog, who Leonard appropriately named Gobi, joined Leonard on the second day of the annual 4 Deserts Race Series and ran side-by-side with him for 77 miles. Leonard noticed Gobi running with 101 runners during the first day, but on the second day, Gobi was on the start line, looking up at him. "This was the first contact I had with her and as I ran off the line I noticed her by my side," he said. "I didn't speak much to her that day, but at the finish line she followed me into the tent and we slept next to each other. That was it then."Leonard shared his sleeping space, water and food with his small companion during the race. He even lent her a hand when needed. "I carried her across rivers that she could not cross on her own, " he wrote on his Crowdfimder page.After the race, it was clear to Leonard that he had developed a special bond with the pup and started researching ways to get Gobi to the UK. He learned that it would take four months for Gobi to be medically checked and cleared for entry, allof which will cost $ 6, 560, an amount that has been surpassed (超过) due to a successful Crowdfunder campaign that raised $ 13,330.1.Why did Leonard leave Scotland for China?A.To join in a desert race.B. To travel in Gobi desert.C.To search for a stray pup.D. To donate for animals.2.What can be inferred from the passage?A.It’s not easy to transport a pet to a different country.B.Gobi was familiar with Leonard before the race.C.The money will help shorten the medical checking time.D.Gobi can run much faster than extreme marathon runners.3.What can Leonard be best described as?A.

A fresh powder had fallen the night before, and everything was frosted white. We couldn’t have asked for more perfect conditions. The sun sparkled(闪光)on the snow, and the trails(路线)were completely empty—not another person or snowmobile in sight. We were thrilled at being the only people for miles around. . . until we got going.As we drove through the deserted wilderness(荒野), my excitement becamestone-cold fear. I had no idea what I was afraid of, or why I was afraid, but suddenly every turn, every hill, every steep(陡峭的)side of the mountain scared me to death. I kept picturing us crashing headlong into a tree or falling off the side of a drop.But after lunch things changed. We were the only humans who had been there since the snowfall. The peaceful place, the incredible beauty of the landscape, and the almost sacred(神圣的)experience of sharing a mountain with the wildlife touched my very core(核心). My mind cleared and quieted and my muscles relaxed.As we drove the last leg of the run, I began to resent being afraid to drive. Deep down, I wanted to be in charge of the thing that scared me. It made me angry that fear was keeping me from something I really wanted to do. The day was coming to an end, and the resort was only a few miles away. I knew that if I didn’t take my chance now, I would regret it.I signaled for my husband to pull over. I wanted to drive, although my heart pounded(重击).

On the third Sunday in June, fathersall across the United States are given presents, treated to dinner or otherwisemade to feel special.However,the idea for creating a day for children to honour their fathersbegan in Spokane,Washington.A woman by the name of Sonora SmartDodd thought of the idea for Father’s Day while listening to a Mother’s Daysermon in 1909.Having been raised by her father,Henry Jackson Smart,after her mother died,Sonora wanted her father to know how special he was to her.It was her father that made all the parental sacrifices and was,in the eyes of his daughter,a selfless and loving man.So nora’s father was born in June,so she chose to hold the first Father’s Day celebration in Spokane,Washington on the 19th of June,1910.In 1924, President Calvin Coolidge declared the third Sunday in June as Father’s Day.Roses are the Father’s Day flowers:red to be worn for a living father and white if the father has died.When children can’t visit their fathers or take them out to dinner,they send a greeting card.Traditionally,fathers prefer greeting cards that are not too sentimental.Most greeting cards are too special so fathers laugh when they open them.Some give heartfelt thanks for being there whenever the child needs Dad.1.The United States is special in Father’s Day because ________ .A.many people celebrate the dayB.only America celebrates the dayC.America makes it an official dayD.all men are honoured in America2.At first,Father’s Day was fixed on June 19th because ________ .A.Sonora honoured her father on her father’s birthdayB.Sonora’s birthday was June 19thC.it was decided by the President at that timeD.her mother died on June 19th3.How many years has passed before Father’s Day became an official day since the Father’s Day was celebrated?A.4.B.10.C.14.

In many pla ces, the answer would be“last weekend”. Some people go even more often. Why? For one thing, malls offer goods and services that people need all in one place: food, clothing, things for their houses, entertainment, even medical services. So, are malls one o f the highlights of modern civilization? Environmental activists would say “No! ” They would go even further and say that consumers’ behavior is causing a huge environmental disaster. They cause consumers of ignorance of the side effect of their shopping—urban sprawl(扩大).Social scientists agree that patterns of development have changed the landscape a great deal in the last half century. Prior to 1950, most people lived in towns or cities and either walked to work or took public transportation. Only very wealthy people had automobiles. Farmers lived in rural areas or isolated villages and came into town only when they needed things they couldn’t produce themselves. If you gazed at the landscape you would see towns surrounded by countryside. Then a massive change occurred.Automobiles became affordable and people were quick to adopt them. Now ambitious workers could live in the suburbs, the areas just outside cities, which started to grow rapidly. As long as there was lots of cheap land in the suburbs, no one paid much attention to the usage of that land. Malls, fast food restaurants, cinemas, and car dealerships spread out in large, flat buildings. These one-storey buildings and their parking lot took up a great deal of space. Well-meaning farmers thought they were better off selling their land than growing crops. In ignorance, no one realized that once the land was built up in urban sprawl, the good farming land would be ruined forever. There was no way to preserve it.Only in recent years have people come to mourn the old way of life as they have developed insight into the problems of unconditional growth. Now people realize that urban sprawl has come with serious environmental problems. The negative aspects of sprawl include air and water pollution, loss of agricultural land, traffic jams, and the death of businesses in the old town centers. Many scholars think the time has come to analyze the problems better so we can develop appropriate policies to control further sprawl. Some think the best way to do is to educate citizens about their priceless environment.5. What is mainly discussed in the passage?A. Weekend FunB. Urban SprawlC. New AutomobilesD. Isolated Villages6.
