We thank people who hurt us, because they teach us important things. We thank people who give us up, because we learn how to be independent. We thank people who are selfish(自私的), because we learn the importance of being kind. Of course, we should thank people who help us; we should thank people who teach us; we should thank people who care about us. We thank our parents. They work hard all the time in order to give their sons and daughters a better life. They cook meals for us; they do the chores for us; they always give us food and clothes; they teach us what is right and what is wrong. We thank our teachers who give us dreams. They teach us a lot of things but they ask for nothing from us. We are well-educated because of them. There are a lot of people that we should be grateful to in our life.

With the challenges(挑战) of school, just paying attention in class or studying hard isnt always enough. But what if there were other ways for students to improve their grades? For parents and students who have ever wondered if this is possible, now you can rest easy. Research suggests that a person who likes doing activities can improve their grades.Scientists think that those students who are active are not just exercising their bodies, but also exercising their brains(大脑). In turn, they can be able to improve their grades at school.In the most recent study, researchers found that when children played for half an hour each day, they were better at organizing(组织) their schoolwork as well as doing project work and learning traditionally “difficult” subjects, such as maths.What does this mean for children who arent active? Researchers think that if kids dont get enough activities, they are going to be at a disadvantage when it comes to school performance.In the research experiment, a group of children skipped with ropes(跳绳), played basketball and did a number of other games or exercises. Another group of children didnt do any activities. They took part in testing both before experiment and after the experiment. Testing was mainly for maths and reading skills. Results showed that the children in the activity group did better on the tests than those who had no activity.All work and no play will not only make Jack a dull(迟钝的) boy, but will also negatively(消极地) affect his grades in school, according to a new study published in the Journal of Pediatrics.Parents complain(抱怨) children today are actually less active and they always worry about their grades. Dr. Belton, an expert, said, “If youd like to see your kids do better in school, have them close their books, set down their pencils and go outside to play.”（1）What does the underlined words “rest easy” in Paragraph 1 mean? A . Stop worrying.B . Keep working.C . Continue learning.D . Study hard.（2）What kind of children is better at organizing their schoolwork in the most recent study? A . They study all the time.B . They play for half an hour every day.C . They finish their homework on time.D . They do some reading after class every day.（3）In Paragraph 5, what does the research experiment want to show us? A . Doing activities is bad for the students.B . Doing more homework can get better marks.C . The children in the activity group did better on the tests.D . Children who didnt do any activities did better on the tests.（4）To help children get better grades, parents should _. A . ask the researchers for helpB . help them to organize their schoolworkC . encourage them to do more activitiesD . let them solve problems by themselves（5）What is the best title of the passage? A . Studying hard.B . Taking part in testing.C . Doing activities is interesting.D . Being active is helpful for better grades.四、 词汇应用。根据句子意思,用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当 (共10题；共14分)21. （1分）What do you think of our hotel? Great!

It is quite true for students to enjoy a rest after a long and difficult year. But more and more parents fear their kids forgetting a lot of knowledge, so they send their children to summer schools. Because summer schools have many advantages, they can help children go over the knowledge that they have learnt during the school year.In summer schools, students probably study in a more relaxing situation and can come up with interesting topics for discussion with their teachers. Usually, the number of. students attending summer schools is smaller, so this gives them a good chance to connect with other students and teachers better. If a student has failed a course, summer schools may help him or her. Moreover, they are building their creativity(创造力) and imagination(想象力) as well as learning social skills.On the other hand, summer schools bring children problems at the same time. It takes children the whole summer vacation to learn without playing. That is too long. As a result, it may make them less interested in school during the coming year.For many students, taking summer classes can be a tiring experience. Teachers teach the subject too quickly, where only harms the whole education of students. Summer schools are usually expensive. They usually offer only a few subjects. So many students have to take classes that they dont like.A summer school can be a good chance for students who need it, but it can be difficult for students who need a rest. So you can decide whether a summer school is suitable for your children.TitleSummer schools_Summer schools help kids go over a lot of _that they have learnt.Students in summer schools feel more relaxed in the situation.They can think of interesting topics to _with their teachers.With the small number of students, summer schools give students a good _to connect with other students and teachersSummer schools may be helpful for the student who has _a course.Summer schools help students build their creativity and imagination and learn social skills.DisadvantagesChildren spend the whole summer vacation _without playing.Summer schools may make students less _in school during the coming year.Teaching too fast is harmful for the whole _of students.Summer schools usually _too much money.So many students have to take classes that they dont like.ConclusionYou can decide whether to _your children to summer schools or not.六、 缺词填空。 (共1题；共10分)32. （10分）_The car is too e_, we dont want to buy it._ The box is very h_.
