Paula and Rory have fives kids, three dogs, and a rabbit. When the house is very noisy, Megan, one of the children, is quietly inventing. A year ago, the 10-year-old had to design an anti-smoking poster, she came up with the idea of creating something that shows the average amount of tar(尼古丁) a smoker collects from just four packs of cigarettes. “I like people to play with things more than read and write,” she says. So she researched her idea on the Internet, found a company in China that could make it, saved up her pocket money and got her idea made. Paula says her daughter “think differently”: Ideas jump into her mind. After she got sunburnt on holiday, Megan invented a small plastic bracelet(手镯) that changes colors in the sun, telling you when to put on sunscreen(防晒霜). Several sunscreen companies have expressed an interest in the idea. She also came up with an idea to make a ball filled with water to stop the dog from feeling thirsty. “But we didn’t do anything with it,” says Paula. Then she pulls out a picture of a special fishing rod(钓鱼竿) she had designed. “There is a camera on the hook(钩),” she explains, “and the screen is on the handle, and it shows if you’ve caught a fish or not.” Megan doesn’t want to go to university. She keeps her pink-and -cream bedroom tidy.

Jesse Owens is recognized as a hero not just because he is fast. Some people might say that they know him for just that reason. However, there are lots of fast people who are not known. Jesse Owens is known because Chancellor Adolf Hitler did not shake the hand of Jesse Owens or even recognize his feat of winning four gold medals, because Owens was an African American. Jesse Owens owed much of his success to his coach Charles Riley, who probably was the most important one making him have the career that he did. Owens came from a background that required him to work after school in a shoe shop. He couldn't attend the regularly scheduled track practices organized by his school. However, Charles Riley saw the boy had both a passion(热情) and a talent for running, and so arranged for him to be able to practice before school instead. Jesse Owens achieved this success despite(尽管) his racial background, which at the time was a huge limitation to him. He could only eat in certain restaurants and sleep in certain hotels, as could all African Americans of the time. He was also never offered a scholarship for school despite setting records for NCAA(美国全国大学生体育协会) championships. The Berlin Olympics in 1936 is where his star rose as high as it would ever be able to. These Olympics were during the height of Hitler’s rule. It took courage to race in front of Hitler and many other racist(种族主义者). It took time, determination, and perseverance(坚持不懈) to race like him. He won four gold medals at those Olympics. It would take almost fifty years for someone else to walk away from the Olympics with four gold medals. He passed away at the age of 66 from lung cancer. 1.The underlined word “feat” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “ .” A. chance B. happiness C. success D. hope 2. We know from paragraph 2 that Jesse Owens . A. did not need to work after school B. took part in the regular track practices C. did not get along well with his coach D. was arranged to practice before school 3.Jesse Owens was well-known around the world mainly because he . A. sets records for NCAA championships B. was brave enough to race in front of Adolf Hitler C. didn’t want to shake hands with Hitler D. is recognized as a hero of the white Americans 4.According to the passage, which of the following about Jesse Owens is true? A. Hitler recognized his feat of winning four gold medals. B. He was offered a scholarship for setting records for NCAA championships. C. He could only eat in certain restaurants like many other African Americans. D. It took him almost fifty years to walk away from the Olympics with four gold medals. 5.What is the best title for the passage? A. Sport hero ---- Jesse Owens B. The Berlin Olympics in 1936 C. Charles Riley ---- Jesse Owens’ s coach D. Jesse Owens’s childhood

Health insurance can be very expensive. Some working people do not make enough money to pay for it. In the US there is a program called Healthy Families. This program offers people health insurance at a low cost. Families are charged about $7.00 a month for every child, and $10.00 for every adult. It costs much less than any other kind of health insurance. Having health insurance is very important. With this insurance, people can see a doctor when they are sick or hurt. The program is not expensive at all, but many people are still not enrolling in it. People say that it still costs too much money. They need all of their money to pay for things like food and rent.

The Mississippi is the major river system in the United States. The Yangtze is China’s longest river. Although a world apart, the two waterways share conservation concerns that provide a cultural bridge between students in the United States and China, as well as from around the world. The Mississippi flows almost 3,800 kilometers from a small lake in Minnesota, gathering the waters of 250 other rivers and streams before reaching the Gulf of Mexico. In mid-May, as spring flowers began to open, about 41 students from a dozen colleges, mostly in the Midwest, explored a section of the river in Wisconsin and Iowa, to learn about the environment, and each other. The students, from the U.S., China and around the world, came to join the River Spirit Exchange program. The cross-cultural educational experience - set up by the University of Wisconsin, Madison-based Environment and Public Health Network for Chinese Students - focuses on the Mississippi and China's longest river, the Yangtze. This three day get-together featured story-telling, hiking, camping and canoeing, all part of a larger lesson about conservation projects that can be used on both the Yangtze and Mississippi. While the students learned about the problems challenging the Mississippi and Yangtze, Jeb Barzen, a wildlife biologist, explained they should also learn about the importance of bridging each other’s culture. The president of the Environment and Public Health Network for Chinese Students, Xiaojun Lu, said the Mississippi and Yangtze Rivers are uniting these students from opposite ends of the earth. Organizers say the success and spirit of this first gathering of students will lead to other trips, including one down the Yangtze. 1.Where is the source of the Mississippi? A. Minnesota B. the Gulf of MexicoC. Wisconsin D. Iowa 2. According to the passage, the get-together . A. lasted a week B. took place in May C. was held in China D. was organized by students 3. According to Paragraph 8, Barzen believes that . A. China and the U.S. should work together to protect the environment B. the Mississippi is more important than the Yangtze to the world C. cultural exchange between different countries is of great importance D. the program encourages technical cooperation between China and the U.S. 4.What is the passage mainly about? A. A major river system in the United States. B. The differences between the Mississippi and the Yangtze. C. An educational program about tourism. D. An international cultural exchange program. 5.Where is the passage most probably taken from? A. A personal diary B. A news report C. An official document D. An advertisement

阅读表达 （共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，请根据短文后的要求进行答题。（请注意问题后的字数要求） [1] Teenagers who spend hours in front of the television may have a poorer diet as young adults, a new study suggests. It's not clear, researchers say, whether television itself is the reason, but it is possible that things like snacking(吃零食) in front of the TV or seeing ads for junk food influence young people's diets. [2] The study included nearly 1,400 high school students. It showed that those who watched TV for five hours or more everyday had less-healthy diets than their students five years later. As a group, they ate fewer fruits and vegetables, but ate more fast food, snack products and fried foods. [3] "We're not able to tell why," lead researcher Dr. Daheia J. Barr-Anderson said. "But we do have some speculations." People who spend a lot of time in front of the TV, especially teenagers, may have more snacks. It may influence their long-term diet quality. It's also possible that TV ads for fast food, sweets and snacks make teenagers eat more of those foods. TV time might also replace exercise time for some kids. [4] The researchers found a clear relationship between TV time during high school and diet quality of the young. The heaviest TV viewers , and those who'd watched fewer than two hours everyday had the most fruits, vegetables. [5] According to Barr-Anderson, the findings support experts' advice that children should watch no more than two hours of television everyday. "Parents should cut the TV time," Barr-Anderson said. She advised that parents set a good example by eating right, being physically active and controlling their own TV time. 1. Complete the following sentences according to the underlined one in paragraph 3. (no more than 5 words) Some children may spend much time watching TV instead of . 2. What does the underlined word “It” in paragraph 2 refer to? (no more than 3 words)

4.Fill in the blank in paragraph 4 with proper words. (no more than 6 words)
5.What is the passage mainly about? (no more than 12 words)
