Mickey Mouse’s ears are well known all over the world, and this year will
be an especially fun one for Disney. The company is celebrating 60 years
since its first theme park, Disneyland, opened in California, US in 1955.
Disney has opened many more parks all over the world since it made
history in California, Shanghai Disneyland is expected to open in 2016, bringing Disney’s popular parks here to the Chinese mainland for the first time.
So why has Disneyland been so popular for 60 years? Well, it’s described as “the Happiest Place on Earth” and “. Many Americans have grown up with the parks, as ex—Disneyland president Paul Pressler said in 1995: “ There is an emotional relationship that people have with this park.”
Disneyland was one of the first theme parks anywhere in the world that had “lands” and rides with themes. Disney’s storytelling in rides like roller coasters is a big reason for their parks’ success. “We tell a story in everything we do,” Pressler said. Disney rides such as The seven Dwarves Mine Train and Peter Pan’s Flight come from its movies. One ride from its 2013 hit movie Frozen will surely be coming soon, perhaps at the new Shanghai Disneyland.
Disney’s parks haven’t always been popular everywhere, however. When Disneyland Paris opened in 1992, some French people felt that American culture was invading(入侵)France. But still, the park stayed open and today it is a popular place for European visitors.
Whatever you may think of them, you can’t say that on their 60 th birthday, Disney’s parks aren’t still going strong. How many Disney theme parks will you have visited by the time their 70 th birthday comes around?
34. The firs Disneyland opened in California in ____.
A. 1955B. 1992C. 1995 D. 2013
35. This year will be especially fun for Disney because____.
A. it is going to celebrate its 60 th birthday
B. it’s described as “the Happiest Place on Earth”
C. Americans have a special relationship with Disneyland
D. Mickey Mouse’s ears are well known all over the world
36. The underlined expression “Young at heart” in Paragraph 3 refers to ____.
A. young people B. people with your hearts
C. American people onlyD. Disneyland president
37. Which of the following is TRUE about Disneyland?
A. Disneyland has been built in US only.
B. Shanghai Disneyland has been opened.
C. People still don’t like Disneyland Paris.
D. Disney’s storytelling in rides helps it succeed.

It happens every spring. Flowers come out everywhere on the same day.
But how do plants “know” when to flower?
For years, it has been a difficult question for scientists. But a US research
group may have finally answered it—the secret lies in a protein(
蛋白
质)called FKF1. This helps plants to know when the days become long and when they get short. Then they can tell the seasons are changing.
Researchers found the FKF1 protein when they were studying a plant called Arabidopsis(拟南芥). It is sensitive(敏感的)to sunlight, and can be made active by sunlight.
Plants produce this protein every day in the late afternoon all year. If there is no light at this time, for example in winter when the sun goes down early, the protein won’t be active. But when spring comes and the days get longer, the FKF1 protein can be made active by day light and the plants “know” it is time to flower. “If there is light in the late afternoon, plants will know that the days are getting longer and that it is the best time for flowers to come out,” explained Takato Imaizumi, leader of study. But when conditions are poor for growing, such as during autumn or winter when the weather is cold and days are short, plants won’t flower.
Although researchers have only studied how the FKF1 protein works in the Arabidopsis, they believe that it is the same with many other plants, including crops such as rice and wheat. This could be useful to the agricultural industry.
“If we can control when flowers come out, we might be able to increase crop production,” Imaizumi said.
38. The passage is mainly about ____.
A. how plants “know” when to flower B. what people can do with plants
C. how seasons are changing D. what kind of plant Arabidopsis is
39. Scientists found the FKF1 protein when they were____.
A. answering a question B. controlling the clours of flowers
C. planting flowers in the garden D. studying a plant called Arabidopsis
40. The best time for flowers to come out is when____.
A. it rains in spring B. there is light in the late afternoon
C. it is getting dark D. the sun goes down early
41. Scientists believe that____.
A. other plants also know when to flowers
B. flowers are more valuable than fruits and vegetables
C. people have known how to control when flowers come out
D. if the weather is cold and days are short, plants will flower

Delia was a young pianist. Her husband, Joe, was a young artist.
Each of them was taking lessons: Joe with a famous art teacher, and Delia with a great pianist from Germany. Their teachers were the very best, so lessons were expensive, more than they could really afford, but…when you love your art, nothing is too much.
But soon the money began to run out, and they couldn’t afford the lessons any more.
Then one day Delia came back home and told Joe that she had met a man whose daughter, Sally, wanted to learn the piano, and he was going to pay her $ 50 an hour.
“Delia,” Joe said, “I’ll be much happier if you keep up your lessons,” Delia said it didn’t matter. “When I’ve had some money, I’ll continue.” But Joe also decided to stop his lessons, to draw pictures and sell them.
A few days later, Joe came home and proudly took $ 200 from his pocket. “I met a man from Vermont,” he said, “who bought one of my pictures. And he wants to buy more!”

(!)Teens are gaining(增加)weight. Today most teenagers are at least one size larger than teens were 20 years ago. Even clothing sizes have changed. Did you know that a small today used to be a medium, 20 years ago?
)A recent research shows 97%of teens need more exercise. It's bad news because too little
exercise means you are missing a lot of good things in life. Exercise helps in two ways.
(3 First,exercise helps your body. Physical activity can make your body strong. It can also keep you at a healthy weight. Doctors say that people who stay at a healthy weight have fewer health problems. .Second,exercise can help your mind. People who get plenty of physical activity might worry less and sleep better at night. You may even learn better in school. Students who are healthy can listen and understand better in class.
OS You can change your' life and- be more active at any point. It's never too late. An article called “How to Limit Screen Time and Get Moving”gives these ideas:
Step away from the screen. Doctors call watching TV or playing video games screen time. You
should have no more than two hours of screen time a day. You will enjoy life more if you live it instead of watching it!
Start slowly. An hour a day can seem like a long time. Start with 10 minutes of new activities every day. Add more as you get stronger. Think about walking. Take the stairs instead of the lift. You will feel healthier.
Make fitness fun. Find a sport you like. It doesn't need to be the traditional sports of basketball,
soccer,or baseball. Those are all great sports and if you like them,play them. However,you can also try hiking,skateboarding,or even rope jumping. If you enjoy the sport,you will do it.
Choose food carefully. Help your family shop for healthy food. Read the labels(标签),Look for healthy foods. Eat lots of fiuits and vegetables. Stop buying soft drinks and junk foods. You will feel better if you eat right.
Exercise with others. Find a friend or family member to exercise or play with you. You will have more fun and it helps keep you responsible for going.
42. What is the main idea of Paragraph 1?
A. Teens are gaining weight. B. Teens,one size larger.
C. Teens' clothing sizes changed.D. A small used to be a medium.
43.Which of the following is a FACT from the passage? A. You should have no more than two hours of screen time a day.
B. You will have more fun and it helps keep you responsible for going.

“Before I came her,” one child said, “I thought swimming was running through an open fire hydrant (消防龙头).”
“Here” is a summer camp that's only an hour from New York City—but a world away.
This camp is run by the Fresh Air Fund (基金会). Since 1877, the fund has helped poor children from New York City spend summers in the country. Each year, over one thousand children, aged 6-18, take part in the program. Some stay at the camp; others live with host families. The fund pays all money.
The camp is for 8-to 15-year-olds. At camp, children can learn about the stars, see deer and cows and other animals, and go hiking, fishing, and of course swimming. The children learn responsibility (责任) by helping out with chores like making beds and waiting on tables. The also learn a lot from teachers, who are often college students for around the United States and from other countries.

Some people like to collect stamps. Others prefer posters or
coins. But Pinky Bhutia is different. She collects children. In her
mountain village, in Sikkim, she is known as the wonderful young
woman who adopts (领养) all the children she can.
Pinky was 14 when she adopted her first child, a Nepali baby
girl, whose parents passed away. Pinky's parents did not mind.
Pinky left school and started working fulltime because she had a baby to feed. Today, she has twelve adopted children, and two sons from her marriage.
Pink is about 30 years old and she comes from a common family. If you passed her on the street, you wouldn't give her a second look. She lives in a brown mud-washed (泥刷的) house. There is a vegetable garden outside. Red hens with noisy chicks run all over the garden looking for food.
If you ask her why she provides a home to so many kids, she smiles shyly. But her eyes are serious. “I know what it is to be poor and hungry.” As a child, her only dream was to eat a full mea, and her favorite amusement was watching people with shoes and imagining what it felt like. By adopting poor and homeless children she is making sure that they never feel that hopeless.
Pinky feels very proud when she sees her children happy and bright. Her oldest baby, Sarita Rai, is now 20 years old. Then, there is 19-year-old Nimbbe who came to Pinky because
her mother was unable to look after her. She started to work in a government office two years
ago. Ten-year-old Bhim and 14-year-old Kumar came to Pinky five years ago, after their father's death. They started living on a patch of land given by Pinky and grew vegetables for sale.
“I like children. It's not one more mouth to feed but one more soul (灵魂) saved, ” Pinky says.
44. After Pinky adopted her first child, she _____.
A. began to raise some chickens B. didn't go to school anymore
C. asked her parents for helpD. left her mountain village
45. By adopting those poor and homeless children, Pinky wants to _____.
A. teach them to grow vegetables B. offer them good jobs
C, make sure they live in hope D. help them become rich
46. Which of the following statements is TRUE ?
A. Pinky likes collecting coins and posters. B. Bhim and Kumar are from the same family.
C. People in Pinky's village have no shoes to wear. D. Sarita Rai works in a government office.
47. We can infer(推断) from the passage that Pinky is a _____ person.
A. kind B. strict C. bright D. careful
C
Vicky Zhao is from the mainland working in Hong Kong. For her,
one thing she can't stand is people standing on the wrong side of the
escalator (自动扶梯) in subway station.
“Escalators help us move faster and save time. It isn't a place to
rest, ” the 24-years-old says, “I often see tourists blocking (挡住) the way
with their heavy suitcases or chatting on the escalators during rush hour. It
makes me very angry.”
Agreeing that she is not the patient type, Zhao says things are much better in Hong Kong than in cities on the mainland where people often pay no attention to “stand right, walk left” signs.”
The reason behind the rule “stand right, walk left” seems clear. Even though you may want to have a rest and just wait while you're transported up or down, you should still consider others and leave enough space for people in a hurry, so that they can run and take the train.
But the people who stand on escalators will tell the walkers not to be so impatient. In a recent story about the escalator rule, one stander says, “If the person is in such a rush, why not just take the stairs?”
Many cities' escalators, including London's and Beijing's, use the “stand right, walk left” rule to speed up the movement of people. (in Australian cities like Sydney you should stand on the left side instead.) But some cities discourage people from moving on escalators out of safety reasons. In Hong Kong's subway station people are asked to “stand still” on escalators. Even so, most people keep the “stand right, walk left” rule.
Whatever the escalator rule is in the place you live in or visit, do what most people are doing and always be mindful of others: leave enough space between each other, don't stay at the end of the escalator, and if someone is blocking your way, a simple “excuse me” is enough.
48. According to the passage, Vicky Zhao _____.
A. comes from Hong KongB. is a 24-year-old girl
C. wants to be a patient person
D. works in a subway station

My name is woof. You think that we have a great life,right?Wrong!I am going to tell you why.
First of all,we are bored. Bored. bored. And bored. Do you ever think about what a dog does all day? Nothing. Nothing at all. Our owners are busy,you know,working,going to school,away from home all day. So what are we supposed to do?Watch the house or apartment?Sure. That is like watching paint dry or grass grow. Boring. That’s why we get so excited when our owners come home. We bark and run around and act as if we are very happy. But we only do this because we are bored all day. If we are lucky,our owner take us for a walk.
Then there is the food. We eat the same food,meal after meal,day after day,week after week,month after month. Help!Would you like to eat the same thing all the time?No,you would not. So what makes you think we dogs like it?We don’t. We hate it.
Another thing-television. Another thing-television. Dogs hate television. Our owners watch these stupid programs,hour after hour,night after night. Are there any programs for dogs on television?No. Not a single one.
So what can we do?What else can we do but sleep?And so we sleep. We dogs are not lazy,we are bored.
