“Happy Birthday!” David awoke to the voice of his mother. “It’s time to get up and drive out to 35 grandfather’s farm.” “Why do we have to go there? And how long is the drive?” he asked with a sad look in his eyes. “About two hours…and don’t worry, we’ ll bring your birthday 36 with us.” His mother walked away and left him to get ready. In less than an hour, David and his parents were on their way. 37 of what the colorful birthday packages had inside filled his head. He was 38 that one had the baseball glove he wanted, while others would have amazing things that he had dreamed about. Thinking of his grandfather, David 39 what his birthday present from him might be. “Since my grandfather has a large farm, he must have a lot of money, and the bigger his present for me will be,” David said to himself. Finally they 40 . Hugging his grandfather, David excitedly shouted, “I’ve missed you! You know, today’s my birthday. Did you get me a present?” “I have missed you, too. And I have a very 41 present for you.” Placing a small box in David’s hand, he quietly said, “This is a very important gift. I hope you will treasure it as 42 as I have.” David looked at the small box, thinking money or jewels might be inside…. When he opened the box, David was 43 to see only a stone. It was a very beautiful stone, but was it valuable? Grandfather spoke more slowly than before, “David, when your grandma and I were first married, we had very little money. She wanted to give me something special for my birthday, so she found this beautiful rock and polished(打磨)it day and night 44 it shined. It was the greatest gift I ever 45 because it came from your grandma’s heart. Now, I want you to have it because it comes from my heart.” David held the stone in his hand and 46 the love of his grandfather. “This is a wonderful gift…thank you, Grandfather.” He knew he had received the best gift ever.

Pieter Bruegel was a famous artist who lived in Europe five hundred years ago. He is well known for a painting called Children’s Games. People like this painting because it is full of fun. It shows how children in Pieter’s time enjoyed themselves in different ways. In all, there are about eighty games being played in the painting. Children’s Games shows a busy street scene in a town long ago. The street is a wide and open space. There are no cars, so there is plenty of room to play. There are about two hundred children in the painting. Some play in groups and others play alone. They seem to be enjoying their freedom in the fresh air and their games. Some of the games are still played today. The games in the painting do not require children to spend money on extra materials(材料). Instead, they use simple everyday objects like hats and sticks. A game might need a rope, some chalk, a hoop, a spinning top, or even a barrel. Some games are played without any toys at all. For example, one scene in the painting shows children turning somersaults(翻筋斗) inside the fence. Even though Pieter Bruegel lived a long time ago, children today can learn an important lesson from what he painted. The painting shows us how little we need in order to enjoy ourselves. All children really need is one another. It’s not the toys or games that are found in the stores that create fun. Using our imagination can do this for us. 1.The painting shows about ______ games.
2.The children in the painting are playing ______.
3.From the painting we learn that ______.

Different colours can affect us in many different ways; that’s according to Verity Allen. In a new programme “Colour me Healthy”, Verity looks at the ways that colours can influence how hard we work and the choices we make. They can even change our emotions and even influence how healthy we are. “Have you ever noticed how people always use the same colours for the same things?” says Verity. “Our toothpaste is always white or blue or maybe red. It’s never green. Why not? For some reason we think that blue and white is clean, while we think of green products(产品)as being a bit unpleasant. It’s the same for businesses. We respect a company which writes its name in blue or black, but we don’t respect one that uses pink or orange. People who design（设计）new products can use these ideas to influence what we buy.” During the programme, Verity studies eight different colours, two colours in each part. She meets people who work in the colour industry, from people who design food packages, to people who name the colours of lipsticks. Some of the people she meets clearly have very little scientific knowledge to prove their ideas, such as the American “Colour Doctor” who believes that serious diseases can be treated successfully by the use of coloured lights. However, she also interviews real scientists who are studying the effects of green and red lights on mice, with some surprising results. Overall, it’s an interesting show, and anyone who watches it will probably find out something new. But because Verity goes out of her way to be polite to everyone she meets on the programme, it’s up to you to make your own decisions about how much you should believe. 1.What’s Verity’s opinion about colours?
2.What can you infer from Paragraph 2?
3.The underlined part “goes out of her way” probably means ______.
4. What’s the passage mainly about?

Children can spend hours a day looking at computer screens and other digital devices(数码设备). Some eye doctors say this leads to an increase in “computer vision syndrome(电脑视力综合症).” Nathan Bonilla-Warford is an optometrist（验光师）in Tampa, Florida. He has seen an increase in problems in children. “A lot more children come into the office either because their parents have noticed that they have headaches or red or watery eyes or discomfort, or because their nearsightedness appears to be increasing and they’re worried,” he says. Dr. Bonilla-Warford says part of the problem is that children may be more likely to pay no attention to early warning signs than adults. “Even if their eyes start to feel uncomfortable or they start to get a headache, they’re less likely to tell their parents, because they don’t want to have the game or the computer or whatever taken away,” he explains. He says another part of the problem is that people blink（眨眼）less often when they use digital devices. He says, “A person who uses an electronic device blinks about one third as much as we normally do in everyday life. And so that can result in the front part of the eye drying and not staying protected like normal.” Eye doctors offer suggestions like following which is known as the 20/20/20 rule. That means every twenty minutes look away twenty feet or more for at least twenty seconds from whatever device you’re using. Other suggestions include putting more distance between you and the device and using good lighting. Of course, another way is to spend less time looking at screens. Many experts say children should spend no more than two hours a day using digital devices—with no screen time for children under two. But not all eye doctors have noticed an increase in problems in children. Dr. David Hunter, from Children’s Hospital Boston, has not seen an increase in his practice. “While it is possible to develop fatigue looking at screens for a long period of time, there’s certainly no proof that it actually causes any damage（伤害）to the eyes.” he says. 1.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
2.What does the underlined word “fatigue” mean?
3.What can be the best title for the passage?

Armida Scarpa is an English teacher. She believes that stories can be used from the very beginning. She uses a real text of Goldilocks with her class. 1 . They are in their second year at school. They are learning to read in Italian, and have English three times a week. She doesn’t expect the children to learn the difficult grammar. 2 . She only asks them to really learn the words. This method is to give children an experience of real English and allows the teacher to use almost any story. 3 and if the teacher uses it carefully, the children can understand it. Children are used to living in a world where they do not understand a lot of things. 4 , but they can also notice all the other information around them. If we deprive (剥夺) children of every experience except those we want them to master, then we take away the chance for them to experience this natural growth.

“Life’s a long, long journey(旅程)” so we are told, and most of us would not set off on a journey, even a short one, without some idea of where we wanted to go. Yet many people travel on life’s journey with no sense of direction at all. Setting personal goals can give your life a sense of direction. Goal setting is used by top sports players, successful business people and achievers in all fields. Before you set personal goals, think about what you want to achieve with your life. Try to set goals in some of the following categories.
Write down the goals and think about them carefully. Are they realistic? When will you be able to achieve them? To help make the process (过程) more manageable, divide your goals into smaller tasks. For example, if you want to reach a main goal in five years, set a three-year goal, a one-year goal, a three-month goal and a one-month goal. Then create a daily To-Do List of things that you should do today. When a goal is achieved, take the time to enjoy your success. This helps you build the self-confidence. Remember, your goals can change as time goes on. But be sure your goals are things you hope to achieve, not what your parents, family or teachers want. 1.Is life a long journey according to the passage? 2. Why do you need to set your life goal? 3.What should you consider when you set a family goal? 4.How can we achieve the main goal easily? 5.What does the writer want to tell us?
