Most Australians love camping inthe holiday. The country has a long history about it, which is a way of life for people in that country. Although that way of life has mostly died out in the modern country, we must take care to remember it.There is a long tradition. When gold was first discovered and people came from around the world to find their fortune(运气), many could not afford to stay in a hotel. Even if they wanted to, there weren't enough hotels. So they all brought tents and set them up next to their little goldfield. Many people alivein Australia today are born from those people who spent large parts of theirlives in tents. And it seems to have stayed with us all the way to modern Australia.In summer, the nation’s camping grounds are covered with families on holiday. It is a great experience for a kid to stay in a tent. He or she canhear all the sounds of nature in the tent. It’s a place where kids can learn skills like making a fire, cooking and swimming in the water. These experiences can be used for their whole lives. So, you can see it’s always the whole family to go out to the camping grounds and stay in a tent.Of course, things have changed a lot from the early days of camping, whenyou would carry everything needed on your back. Now there are all kinds of tools to take with you, from solar panels(太阳能板) for your electric products to an outdoor shower. They make the camping life more colorful. In fact, many camping grounds you see around the country are so decorated(装饰的）that you have to wonder why those Australians aren't bored to leave the house at all.16. The second paragraph mainly tells us about_____.A. the history of camping in AustraliaB. what the first visitors did in AustraliaC. the hotel situations in AustraliaD. Australian’s modern way of life17. What do Australians prefer to do when summer comes?A. To go fishing.B. To make tents by themselves.C. To go camping.D. To listen to nature.18. We can learn from the passage that_____.A. solar panels are necessary for campingB. things have changed a lot about campingC. there are lots of goldfields in AustraliaD. camping has already died out nowadays19. What is the best title for the passage?A. The history of Australia.B. The tradition of Australia.C. Traveling in Australia.D. Camping in Australia.B篇Saalumrada Thimmakka, an uneducated woman who, along with her late husband, planted and cared for 384 banyan trees(榕树) in her hometown of HUlikal village, Inida. Now she is 104 years old. And she lives on to tell the story.When Thimmakka was a young girl, she married a farmer named CHikkaiah and together they made a living by farming. The couple remained childless for many years. But instead of losing themselves in self-pity, they decided to make the best of their situation. “One day, we thought why not plant trees and take care of them like our children,” Thimmakka said.They started by grafting(嫁接) 10 saplings(树苗) from the banyan trees that grew in their village. They planted those saplings on an empty land about four kilometers from the village. There wasn't any water in the area, so they carried water all the way to water the trees every single day. They protected the saplings from bad weather and animals, until they took root(根). The next year, they planted 15 more saplings, 20 the year after that, and kept going until they planted a total of 384 trees, which are worth about 1.5 million dollars now.Today, the trees have grown up into a forest. The forest is between the villages of Hulikal and Kudoor, about 80 kilometers away from the state capital of Bangalore. Unluckily, her husband died in 1991, but Thimmakka has won several state and national prizes, including the National Citizen’s Award in 1995 and the Godfrey Phillips Bravery Award in 2006. She has been highly spoken of(赞扬) by governments and environmental organizations. However, she still lives a very poor life. She owns a simple three-room house.Though she is old, Thimmakka is still active in making a difference. “I have been hoping to start a hospital, but no one seems interested,” she said. “Although it is hard for me, I will keep trying. I do believe my dream will be realized if I stick to（坚持） it.”20. How did Thimmakka and her husband make a living after they married?A. By farming.B. By selling saplings.C. By running a hospital.D. By planting vegetables.21. The couple decided to plant trees because they ______.A. wanted to change their poor condition and live a rich lifeB. found there were so many empty lands in their villageC. found the land in their village was suitable for planting treesD. wanted to take care of the trees like raising children22. What is Thimmakka’s next dream?A. To raise money for her village.B. To open a hospital.C. To plant more trees in her village.D. To encourage more people to plant trees.23. What can we learn from the passage?A. Thimmakka has made a lot of money by planting trees.B. Thimmakka planted saplings along the river.C. Thimmakka is a great woman with a strong mind.D. Thimmakka’s husband has been dead for fifteen years.C篇Seat belts(安全带) are placed in a car for the safety of the driver as well as the passengers. When a person is traveling in a car, he moves with the same speed as the car. Therefore, if the car meets with an accident, the driver and the passengers will be thrown forward or to the sides with great force, which may result in hurts or even death. Seat belts are meant to prevent deaths from accidents because of car accidents.The most important reason for wearing a safety belt while driving is that itreduces(降低) the chances of being hurt by 50%, if one meets with an accident. Seat belts provide maximum(最大限度的)safety. They will prevent you fromgetting jerked to the sides or in the front if an accident happens.If the driver makes a sudden brake(刹车) , he and the passengers are thrownforward. Wearing a seat belt will prevent it greatly.After meeting with an accident, if it is found that the person has sufferedhurts because of not wearing a seat belt, he should be responsible for his hurts.Many people complain that they would prefer being out of the car if in anaccident instead of being inside. While, it is safer for a person to be inside the car as one cannot be sure how he would land, if thrown out of the car. There may even be cases that the passengers knock into each other if the carstops suddenly. Wearing a seat belt will avoid this situation.One has to be very careful about child seat belt safety. If children are not old enough to wear a seat belt, they should be seated in a child car seat. It is also suggested that one wear a seat belt when traveling in a taxi. Sometimes, a person can legally(合法地) not wear a seat belt if advised by the doctor for health reasons.24. Why does the underlined word “jerked” mean in the passage?A. hurt seriouslyB. pushed suddenlyC. killed accidentally.D. hit slowly25. When a traffic accident happens, a person had better ______.A. be thrown out of the carB. let go of the seat belt immediatelyC. stop the car as soon as possibleD. be inside the car26. We can learn from the passage that________.A. wearing a seat belt can reduce the chances of injury by 60% in an accidentB. wearing a seat belt can prevent people from being thrown forward or to the sides completely（完全地）C. it is illegal(非法的) for people not to wear a seat belts in the writer’s countryD. it is OK for children to wear a seat belt no matter how old they are27. Which is the best title for the passage?A. Reasons for wearing your seat beltB. How to wear a seat belt correctlyC. Seat belts and traffic accidentsD. How to avoid（避免）injuries in car accidentsD篇A couple of parents still believe that it is not alright to let theirchildren ride a bike to school. Maybe parents have some safety concerns(忧虑). However, if done safely, biking for children can be a wonderful and enjoyable experience.If you are not balanced(平衡的) as an adult, it can cause problems for you. You would fall and hurt yourself seriously. You must prevent your children from being unbalanced. By allowing your children to ride a bike, you’re teachingthem to keep their balance from a young age. If you use a balance bike, it can help to teach your children how to balance themselves quickly.One of the biggest concerns for parents is the increasing weight problems of children in the United Kingdom. Children are eating more and exercising less. If parents don't start encouraging their children to love exercise from a young age, children won’t enjoy it when they’re older. By using a balance bike parentscan improve not only the fitness of their children but also for themselves.There is a great tool to encourage your children to regard exercise as fun. Itis really helpful to both of you.Children catch on to new things very quickly. If you always praise them and they realize the potential(潜能)within themselves, their self-confidence(自信) will grow. If you spend time in the park or some public places, your childrenwill be able to see that other children are not riding their bikes as easily as they are. This confidence can help them later in life when they start dealingwith difficult situations.So many children try to ride a bike simply because they can't center on where they’re going, because they look at their feet the whole time. With a balance bike they don't need to consider these problems. They simply lift their feet off the ground and go.28. Biking from a young age can teach kids to ______.A. avoid falling off their bikesB. protect themselves from dangerC. balance themselvesD. ride bikes easily and quickly29. What causes British kid’s weight problem?A. More meat and fewer vegetables.B. More food and less exercise.C. Too much TV time.D. Too much homework.30. Praise from parents can help kids______.A. build up their confidenceB. catch on to new things fastC. deal with difficult situationsD. work hard to improve31. What does this passage mainly tell us about?A. The advantage of biking for kids.B. Different ideas about biking to school.C. How to keep one’s balance on your bike.D. Enjoyable experiences on bikes.E篇The hope for happiness can be a lifelong search for some people, but researchers believe they may have found the most important reason for feeling a greater sense of happiness.Researchers from Nottingham Trent University found that the more someone was identified(认同) by a certain group, such as family, in their local community or through a hobby, the happier he was with his life.“Our findings suggest that thinking more about one’s group life could have important advantages of the sense of happiness,” said Dr Juliet Wakefield, a psychologist(心理学家) at Nottingham Trent University. “We would like to identify with groups that share our values, interests and those that support（支持） us in difficult times. And we can see how this would be connected(连接) with happiness. We often forget the sense of happiness because the speed of modern life is always fast and the center of modern life is achievement. And we always forget, to be the best ourselves, we need the support of others.”They studied how 4,000 volunteers felt connected to certain groups, and then checked the influence this had upon their levels of happiness. She added, “It’s important to note that identifying with a group isn't the same as membership. You can be a member of a group with which you feel no connection at all. It’s that personal sense of belongings that’s the key to happiness.Healthcare professionals encourage people to join groups that they are interested in. They advise people to keep connection with groups they already belong to. Simple social behaviors like this could in turn help to prevent future ill health.”Another study found that intelligent(聪明的) people could be more easily distracted(思想不集中的) at work. So if you have trouble paying all your attention to your work, it’s probably because of all those amazing ideas you have running through your head.32. What does the researchers’ finding suggest?A. To feel happiness, one should share values and interests with others.B. To feel happiness, one should think more about his group life.C. One should forget modern life’s fast speed and center.D. One should be identified by others through a hobby.33. According to Juliet, people would like to forget that_______.A. they need others’ supportB. they live a competitive lifeC. happiness is as important as workD. they should have friends34. According to the 4,000 volunteers, how people felt connected to certain groups has an influence on _______.A. their life choicesB. their work abilityC. their levels of happinessD. their social relationship35. According to the passage, who are much probably happier?A. People who have a big family and friends.B. People who have a lot of hobbies and interests.C. People who gain membership of a good social group.D. People who feel a sense of belonging to social groups.完形填空答案：DDBBC ACDAC BBACD阅读理解答案：ACBD ADBC BDCA CBAA BACD。

The key to your problem is that long nap（打盹,小睡）after dinner. If you didn"t sleepfor hours during the early part of the evening, you would be more readyto sleep at bedtime.
