My sister and I spent our summer holidays with our uncle this year. He was a geologist and loved to collect stones.One day, he bought us two backpacks and asked us to go to the mountain with him. We walked the whole day. Every now and then he put stones in our backpacks. To our surprise, he also took some stones out from them. But we thought he had just found better stones.When we returned to the house, we were very tired. The backpacks were so heavy that we felt great relief when we took them off. Yet our uncle's backpack was half empty.“Why did you give us so many stones?”We asked.“I didn't. You did,”he said. “You didn't know it, but I gave you a little attitude（态度）test today. I listened to every word you said. Whenever you were complaining（抱怨），I added a stone to your backpacks. Whenever you talked about something with positive（积极的）thinking，I took out a stone. And now look at your backpacks.”Our backpacks were full of stones.“Your negative（消极的）thoughts are just like stones. You carry them in your mind just like those stones in your backpacks. The more negative thoughts you have, the heavier your mind will be,”said our uncle. With great love, our uncle taught us one of the most important lessons in life —the power of the attitude.41.Where did Wilson’s uncle ask Wilson and his sister to go?A. To the mountain.B.

The more positive thoughts you have, the heavier your mind will be.B. Young kids should carry heavy backpacks.C. We should have a positive attitude towards life．D. When we take backpacks off, we will feel great relief.Do you worry about your health? Have you tried to run or walk for exercise and then stop? If you answer yes, you should try a new type of exercise: aquatic（⽔中的）exercise. Aquatic exercise is a kind of exercise you do in a swimming pool. For example, you can run, walk, or even do a mind-body practice, such as yoga. More and more people are trying aquatic exercise. In the United States, the number has grown by 25% in recent years.Aquatic exercise has many benefits（益处）. First of all, it feels easier than exercising on land. Why? You weigh about 90% less in the pool. It is also better for your knees than running or walking.Aquatic exercise feels easy, but you still burn calories (卡路⾥). Water is 1,000 times thicker and heavier than air. In the same amount of time, you can burn more calories in the pool than in the gym. That's because it takes more energy to move in the water.Aquatic exercise is safe and easy to learn. It doesn’t require any special skills. For most kinds of aquatic exercise, you don't even need to know how to swim.In fact, most people say they feel more relaxed in the water. They stop thinking about the things that make them anxious. The cool and quiet environment makes them exercise more.Aquatic exercise is suitable for everyone. You can do it at any age. It can even help people who have been hurt in accidents. With aquatic exercise, they can move in ways they can't on land. So are you looking for a fun new way to improve your health? Try joining the millions of people who are burning calories while keeping cool in the pool.:46.Where do people do aquatic exercise?A. In a lake.B. In a swimming pool.C. In the sea.D. In a river near their home.47.Why do people burn more calories while doing aquatic exercise?A. Because it takes more energy.B. Because it feels easy.C. Because it is safe and easy.D. Because it can even help injured people.48.Who is aquatic exercise suitable for?A. Women.B. Men.C. Children.D. Everyone.49.According to passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. Aquatic exercise feels easier because you weigh less in water.B. Aquatic exercise makes people feel relaxed in the water.C. Aquatic exercise requires special skills.D. 25 percent more people in the U.S. has tried aquatic exercise in recent years.50.What is the passage mainly about?A.
