The events mentioned in the article are mainly intended for .A. artists B. historians C. doctors D. food loversBAndreea, 18, from Romania, sent a photograph of the view from her window and included a brief (简短的）apology: “Sorry, this picture is plain and boring. No one would like it.”At home in New Jersey, US, Coreen Burke, 16, clicked on the same image in her inbox. She saw a village with its old houses, and a distant chimney puffing smoke.“Isnt this amazingly different from my country?” she thought to herself.Burke saw potential in that photo. She posted it to her blog, Outside My Window，which features a daily snapshot (快照）of someones window view from different people around the world.The concept is simple: We can all relate to the act of staring through a pane of lass (一块玻璃)，onto the scene on the other side,“Maybe if we understood the way people from all over the world live,” she added, “we would get along better than we have been lately.”On the site，you can see Frederics window in the south of France, looking out on sailboats anchored in a tranquil harbor(宁静的港湾).0r Virginias view in Canada, a winter scene with treeslaced in white.Like most high school students, Burke has yet to travel the world. But she hopes to someday collect many stamps in her passport,starting in Greece and India. In the meantime,however, shes devoting herself to her website.she posted the first window view from Switzerland, a sunset captured (拍摄）by an 18-year-old.Then others came flowing in by email, up to seven a day, from as far as Kazakhstan and Indonesia.Contributors are marked on a map on her bedroom wall: A blue dot indicates (表示）their country and a pink dot shows their city, if they provide it. The most responses have e from Europe - Estonia, Poland, Italy, Germany and Sweden, to name a few. She is crossing her Angers that she 11 receive a photo from Africa or Antarctica, which are unrepresented so far.And while Burkes bee a cyber crusader (斗士）for appreciating the beauty outside our own windows, it will probably e as a surprise to learn that she doesnt actually have a window in her own bedroom. But with the views out of other peoples she can enjoy whenever she wants to, she surely doesnt mind.24. How might Burke describe Andreeas picture?A. Boring. B. Charming. C. Strange. D. Plain.25.

Women wear long，frilly (有 褶皱边的）skirts and men wear short trousers w.th bells attached to them. They dance to traditional folk music which is often played on traditional musical instruments.Some groups carry heavy black sticks which they bash (击打）against each other while they dance. Other groups wave handkerchiefs in the air whilst they perform. The dances are usually performed near a pub so that when it s over, the dancers and spectators (观众）can sing some traditional folk songs over a pint of beer. The festivities (欢庆）will often continue long into the night, by which point most people are too drunk to think about performing again.Morris dancing is a great English tradition but its facing a big crisis (危机).As the years go by, fewer and fewer young people are joining morris dancing groups. The dancers are getting older and older and eventually, if nothing is done to change this trend, the tradition will die out within the next few decades.If youve ever had the fortune to see morris dancing, you may understand why teenagers arent rushing to sign up. Putting it bluntly (直截了当地)，its not exactly the coolest thing for an 18-year-old to be doing. Why dress up in bells and funny costumes when you could be going clubbing (逛夜店)？ Or playing sport? Or doing anything else?However, it would be a great shame to lose such a fun and vibrant (有活力的)part of Englands history and culture. Its important to look after some traditions and customs especially when its something as harmless and happy as morris dancing. So heres a toast to the next generation of would-be morris dancers! Lets hope they dont leave it too late.28. What is the article mainly about?A. The popularity of morris dancing in the UK.B. The origins of mortsdancing in the UK.C. Different attitudes toward morris dancing in the UK.D. traduions and development of morris dancing in the UK.29. Which of the following is TRUE about morris dancing according to the text?A. Dancers usually wear long dresses with bells attached.B. People sing traditional folk music while they dance. C. Dancers perform with sticks or handkerchiefs in their hands.D. People prefer to dance till nighttime in pubs and then stop to drink beers.30. What crisis is morris dancing facing?A. There is a lack of professional dancers.B. It is losing appeal among young people.C. It is accused of lacking fun and variety.D. Its traditions and customs have been forgotten.31. What is the authors attitude toward morris dancing?A. It is a good way for people to stay healthy and positive.B. It is a cultural heritage that deserves more attention.C. It is too old-fashioned and needs to be improved.D. It is flin and vibrant and every teenager should learn to do it.DRunning is often tiring and a lot of hard work, but nothing beats the feeling you get after finishing a long workout around the track .But while its long been believed that endorphins (脑内啡）一chemicals in the body that cause happiness 一 are behind the so-called “runners high”，a study suggested that there may be more to this phenomenon than we previously knew.According to a recent study published by a group of scientists from several German universities, a group of chemicals called endocannabinoids (内源性大麻素）may actually be responsible for this familiar great feeling.To test this theory, the scientists turned to mice.Both mice and humans release high levels of endorphins and endocannabinoids after exercise, along with many other chemicals. After exercising on running wheels,the mice seemed happy and relaxed and displayed no signs of anxiety.But after being given a drug to block their endorphins the change. However, when their endocannabinoids were block with a different drug,their runners high symptoms seemed to fade.“The long-held notion of endorphins being responsible for the runners high is false.Endorphins are effective pain relievers, but only when it es to the pain in your body and muscles you feel after working out,”Patrick Lucas Austin wrote on science blog Lifchacker.Similar studies are yet to be carried out on humans, but its already well known that exercise is a highly effective way to get rid of stress or anxiety.The UKs National Health Service even prescribes (开药方)exercise to patients who are suffering from depression.“Being depressed can leave you feeling low in energy, which might put you off being more active. Regular exercise can boost your mood if you have depression, and its especially useful for people with mild to moderate (中等的）depression,” it wrote on its website.It seems like nothing can beat that feeling we get after a good workout, even if we don t fully understand where it es from. At least if were feeling down, we know that all we have to do is put on our running shoes.32. What did scientists from German universities recently discover?A. Working out is a highly effective way to treat depression.B. The runners high could be caused by endocannabinoids.C. Endorphins may contribute to ones high spirits after running.D. The level of endorphins and endocannabinoids could affect ones mood.33. The scientists gave mice drugs in their experiment to .A. find what reduces the runners high symptomsB. see the specific symptoms of the runners highC. identify what is responsible for the runners highD. test what influences the level of endocannabinoids released34. The underlined word “notion” in Paragraph 7 has the closest meaning to .A. effect B. goal C. question D. belief35. According to the UKs National Health Service, regular workouts .A. are the best way to treat depressionB. can help ease depression symptomsC. only work for those with serious depressionD. can help people pletely recover from depression第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项屮选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Did you take part in a camp this summer ? _36_ To choose which camp is best for you, first you must do a bit of research.Maybe youve never thought about it before, but every great summer camp has the same main goals opportunity, challenge and growth.Opportunity means you are given a chance to do something special. _37_ For example, if you are interested in writing, then you can choose to join a journalism camp.
