These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care. These two days offer an opportunity to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home. More fathers must help with child-care.These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mothers Day people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother .A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents .It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery（公墓）. On these days families get together at home, as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues for Fathers Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are valued more than the ones bought in stores. It is not the value of the gift that is important, but it is “the thought that counts”. Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakeries and telephone panies do a lot of business during these holidays.21Which is NOT a reason for children to show love and respect for parents?A. Parents bring up children.B. Parents give love and care to children.C. Parents educate children to be good persons.D. Parents pass away before children grow up.22 What do you know from the passage?A. Mothers Day and Fathers Day are both in May.B. Fewer women worked outside the home in the past.C. Not all the children respect their parents.D. Fathers are not as important as mothers at home.23 Which do you think is right about “carnation”?A. It only has two kinds of color.B. It refers to the special clothes people wear on Mothers Day or Fathers Day.C. Its a kind of flower showing love and best wishes.D. People can wear carnations only on the second Sunday in May.BThe purpose of keeping fit is to avoid illness, avoid the mental and physical fatigue（疲劳）, and above all to feel more pleasure in being alive. Research has shown the value of a balanced diet, fresh air, sunshine, enough rest and some forms of regular exercise for everyone. If everyone followed this plan, the number of people visiting the doctor and going to hospital would be reduced.Unfortunately, although most people acknowledge the importance of physical fitness, not enough of us put this into practice. We spend too much time watching others from the fort of an armchair or a seat in the stand at a sports stadium.One reason why people who are physically fit to live longer is that they do not put the heart under excessive strain（过度劳累）and so they reduce the risk of heart and blood vessel（血管）diseases. They also avoid suffering weakened muscles, which are the cause of a great deal of trouble.All in all, sensible exercise, suited to each person and properly undertaken on the advice of a doctor, is the best insurance of meeting these requirements.24 Why do people want to keep fit?A. Because they want to avoid health.B. Because they want to add mental and physical fatigue.C. Because they want to feel happier and live longer.D. Because they want to obtain much more money.25 Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Everyone knows the importance of this plan.B. Not all people do what the plan tells them to do.C. Most people put the plan into practice.D. No one wants to do with this plan.26 What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Balanced diet is the most important.B. People who are physically fit live longer.C. Most people can live longer.D. People always do not put the heart under excessive strain.CIn Canada and the United States, there is a new group of children called “satellite kids”, who live in one place but whose parents live in another place.Asians are immigrating (移民) to Canada and the United States in larger numbers than ever before. Most Asians immigrate because they believe that they can give their children a better education in the West. In Asia, especially in China, Japan, and Korea, it is difficult to go to university. Students must first pass the strict national examination. However, in Canada and the United States, it is easy to go to university, and anyone who wants to go can go. As a result, Asian parents decide to leave their countries so that their children can go to university.The problem is that when Asians arrive, they discover that finding a job and making money are more difficult in the West than in the East. Also, they find that they are very lonely, and that they miss their homes. For these two reasons, most Asian parents decide to go back to work while their children study in the West. Therefore, these children bee “satellite kids”, and most of their parents do not know how sad it is to be a “satellite kid”.Only until now are Canadians and Americans discovering the “satellite kid” problem. Because these children do not speak English and because their parents are not there to take care of them, they are often absent from school. To be a “satellite kid” means to grow up in a country where you know you are different and where you cannot make friends because you do not speak English well. Also, it means to grow up lonely, because your parents are elsewhere. What these “satellite kids” will probably say to their parents is that its better to have parents around than to have a university education27Some Asian parents send their kids abroad because _A. they hope their children may easily find a job thereB. all foreign universities are better than the ones in their own countriesC. the kids may not be accepted by universities in their own countriesD. the kids want to improve their English and make foreign friends28“Satellite kids” refer to Asian kids _A. without parents B. speaking no EnglishC. with university education D. living abroad alone29What is the main idea of the passage?A. Parents want better education for their kidsB. Parents feel lonely and miss their familiesC. Kids in foreign countries alone are badly in need of care from familyD. Canadians and Americans begin to notice the “satellite kids” problem30 Whats the feeling of the “satellite kids” staying abroad alone? A sad B free C happy D independentDMost sharks are dangerous. The largest kind of sharks-the whale shark-has small teeth and is quite harmlessto people. However, blue sharks, tiger sharks, white sharks and hammerheads are enemies of man. Man-eaters are always a danger to swimmers in shark waters. Sometimes, though, men have used strange methods when theyre suddenly faced with a shark. During world War , soldiers and sailors whose boats or planes were destroyed drifted (漂流) helplessly on the ocean in small rafts (筏子). While waiting to be saved, the men had to struggle to stay alive and were often attacked by sharks. In some cases, they had few weapons to protect themselves with. They found that just splashing (溅水) water seemed to help keep the sharks away. One sailor was swimming for his life in the Atlantic Ocean after his boat had been blown up. He saw a shark swimming towards him. He hit the shark with his bare fist, and that drove it off. Once, in Australia, a fisherman was fishing after sunset. He hooked a big fish and drew it towards the shore. His line broke when the fish was only a few yards from the shore. The fisherman waded (涉水) into the water to try to catch it with his hands. In the dim light, it looked like the kind of fish that could be dealt with without danger. He put his arms around the fish and wrestled with it. Dragging it to the beach turned out to be harder than he had expected, but at last he pulled it in. When he turned a light on it, he was amazed. He ha31.
