There are various camps. Have you heard about ‘‘Survival Camp”? “Survival Camp” is for children to go into the lonely place for exciting activities. Now about 1,100 companies are allowed to take children into the great outdoors without their parents.

The reason why people like “Survival Camp” is that they think getting close to nature is good for children. Many children in big cities spend all time watching TV and playing computer games. “Survival Camp” gives them an important change.

Is “Survival Camp” a wonderful idea? Maybe it is. Children need more free time to play. They need to be left on their own, without adults disturbing (打扰) them. Parents care too much about their children. They like to see the children being busy with activities that are controlled by adults but children don’t know what to do when they are in danger. Even something like crossing a small river seems to be a hard challenge. Children are not comfortable with danger. Even small danger like getting their feet wet or falling down seems very terrible to them.

Many people think the survival activities are good for children. Even years later, they will still remember what they have learned. Some have learned to stay calm in different times. Some have learned how to keep safe. Others have learned how to work in a team. All these skills will help them a lot in their lives.

1.What is “Survival Camp” according to the passage?

A. It is for children to have fun with parents.

B. It is for children to improve study skills.

C. It is for children to escape from danger.

D. It is for children to go into the lonely place for exciting activities.

2.Which children are more likely to take part in “Survival Camp”？

A. Poor children. B. Rich children.

C. Children from cities. D. Children from rural areas.

3.The last paragraph mainly deals with .

A. the suggestions of taking part in “Survival Camp”

B. the advantages of “Survival Camp”

C. the disadvantages of “Survival Camp”

D. the activities of “Survival Camp”

I went up to my mother's bedroom after her death and found a box full of papers. Inside was a letter. “Dearest Andrew,” it began, “there was never a right time to tell you.”

Along with the letter was my adoption paperwork—“Parents: unknown”—and two newspapers. The first described a newborn baby, wrapped in a pink blanket, discovered on a doorstep by a paperboy. The second was from a year later, reporting that the baby was still in a children’s home, yet to be adopted.

It was a shock. My childhood was happy; my adoptive father died when I was eight, but my mother made sure I couldn’t have had a more loving home. I didn’t do anything about trying to find out my birth parents for 15 years. However, there were so many questions. Why did my mother abandon me? Did she get into trouble? I didn’t feel angry with her for leaving me, but I wanted to know more about the circumstances surrounding my birth.

I started to research my history and went on local television news. Amazingly, a man called Ronnie got in touch with the TV station, saying I reminded him of his father, Angus. We met up and I was surprised to see a man 20 years my senior. We arranged a DNA test. The results were positive—Ronnie was my half-brother.

Ronnie told me that my father would have been 60 when I was born. He died before I started my search. My father was having an affair with a young woman during the year of my birth, but she is now married with her own family and I should respect her privacy. I would like my questions answered, but not at the expense of her happiness. “Abandoned” is such a sensitive word, but I don’t feel any sadness or rejection, because I don’t know the circumstances of my birth. Instead, I feel unique.

1.From the passage we can know that Andrew .

A. was wrapped in a blanket when found

B. was brought up in a children’s home

C. served as a paperboy when his mother died

D. was abandoned by his birth parents a year after birth

2.What contributed to Andrew’s looking for his birth parents?

A. Anger. B. Curiosity.

C. Bitter childhood. D. Present poor life.

3.What can we know about Andrew and Ronnie from the passage?

A. Neither has seen Angus. B. Neither is the son of Angus.

C. Both have the same father. D. Both are at the same age.

4.Why did the author give up searching for his birth mother?

A. He hated her because she abandoned him on a doorstep.

B. He didn’t have evidence due to his father’s death.

C. He felt it lucky enough to find his birth father.

D. He didn’t want to put her into trouble.

5.Which of the following words can best describe the author’s attitude towards his adoptive mother?

A. Dissatisfied. B. Forgiving.

C. Grateful. D. Concerned.

Nowadays, more people lose their jobs and the prices of goods and services steadily increase. 1.. But where do I start? Everything I’m paying for is necessity. There’s nothing I can cut down on.

But if you take a careful and objective look at your bills and all the “stuff” you’re paying for, you actually do not need a good majority of them. I’ve put together 5 tips that you can follow right now to reduce your costs.

1.Cut Back on Eating out.

Maybe you didn’t notice eating out is one of the things at your budget and you can save so much money just by reducing the number of times you eat out. 2.It’s so much cheaper preparing food at home and healthier too. This does not mean that you should never eat out. You can choose special days to eat out like birthdays or anniversaries.

2.Reduce Your Electricity Consumption

3.This will help reduce your electricity consumption. With CFLs(节能灯)you save so much on power. Also unplug appliances(家用电器)that you’re not using.

3.Cut Back on Magazine or Print Subscription(订阅费)

Magazines are great but sometimes they come with articles that you don’t really care about so you don’t bother reading them. 4.Review your magazine or print subscriptions to determine which ones to unsubscribe from. You can also draw out a list of topics or categories you like reading about and search for free online alternatives where you can read about the topic of your choice.

4.Cancel Your Gym Membership or Go for a Pay-Per-Use Plan.

Exercise is important to stay healthy. In fact, you save more money when you stay physically fit than if you are in poor health. But there are more affordable ways to keep fit, if you exercise for health’s sake and no as a body builder or something.

Exercise at home or jog around your neighborhood. If you can’t work out without an exercise trainer, try searching for exercise routines on You Tube. If you want to u se gym equipment, then you can convert your gym membership style to pay-per-use. 5.

Of course, you don’t need to practice all of these at once, but if you are really willing to cut down on those costs, then one of these will surely come in handy.

A.Start by turning off the lights you’re not using.

B.They’re so simple but the results are impressive

C.As an alternative, make more home-cooked meals

D.It’s time for you to take action and do something about your bills

E.That way you pay only when you come to the gym to use the equipment

F.Invest in gym equipment to cut down recurrent costs of gym membership

G.These days most of the information or news is available on the Internet for free.

Did you know that sixty per cent of your body weight is water? However,

a loss of only two per cent of this water throughdehydration(脱水) during exercise can significantly affect your performance. The more you sweat, the more your exerciseperformance declines, unless you drink enough to replace your lossof fluids.

When you lose too much water, you can overheat quite easily,especially in a warm environment.But this is not the only problemyou may face. Dehydration leads to your heart pumping muchfaster, which means exercise becomes more difficult and requiresmore effort. Despite these problems, however, many of us simplydo not take enough fluids in when we head for the gym or set outon a run.

So why is this? How do we manage to lose so much waterwithout simply drinking more toreplace it? Well, it?s easier thanyou think. When we are at rest, we quickly become aware that weare thirsty and will put that right by having a drink. When weexercise, on the other hand, our thirstmechanism(结构) does notwork as effectively, so we don?t notice early enough that we areactually thirsty. In fact, we only start to feel thirsty when we havealready lost around two per cent of our body weight.

Another problem is that, the more dehydrated we becomeduring exercise, the more difficult it is to prevent furtherdehydration—because our stomachs become intolerant to fluidsand we do not absorb water properly, just when we need it most.

The key thing about fluids and exercise is to manage yourintakeproperly

—regular small amounts are preferable, and someshould be drunk before the period of exercise begins. You alsoneed to match your intake to the sort of exercise you are doing. For example, for one hour of exercise, such as taking part in a 10 km run, you need to drink about two extra litres of water. For longer periods of exercise, sports drinks are recommended.

1.We know from the text that during exercise, dehydration _____.

A. can be easily avoided

B. will lead to poor performance

C. can cause many health problems

D. will be controlled whenever we drink again

2.Why do people suffer from dehydration easily during exercise?

A. Their thirst mechanism stops working. B. Their focus is on the exercise.

C. Their thirst response is slow. D. Their stomachs are full.

3.When exercising, you are advised to _____.

A. have regular breaks B. drink water accordingly

C. drink sports water in advance D. have at least two litres of water

Getting less sleep has become a bad habit for most American kids. According to a new survey(调查) by the National Sleep Foundation, 51% of kids aged 10 to 18 go to bed at 10 pm or later on school nights, even though they have to get up early. Last year the Foundation reported that nearly 60% of 7- to 12-year-olds said they felt tired during the day, and 15% said they had fallen asleep at school.

How much sleep you need depends a lot on your age. Babies need a lot of rest: most of them sleep about 18 hours a day! Adults need about eight hours. For most school-age children, ten hours is ideal(理想的). But the new National Sleep Foundation survey found that 35% of 10- to 12-year-olds get only seven or eight hours. And guess what almost half of the surveyed kids said they do before bedtime? Watch TV.

“More children are going to bed with TVs on, and there are more opportunities(机会) to stay awake, with more homework, the Internet and the phone,” says Dr. Mary Carskadon, a sleep researcher at Brown University Medical School. She says these activities at bedtime can manfen5 get kids all excited and make it hard for them to calm down and sleep. Other experts say part of the problem is chemical. Changing levels of body chemicals called hormones not only make teenagers’ bodies develop adult characteristics, but also make it hard for teenagers to fall asleep before 11 pm.

Because sleepiness is such a problem for teenagers, some school districts have decided to start high school classes later than they used to. Three years ago, schools in Edina, Minnesota, changed the start time from 7:25 am to 8:30 am. Students, parents and teachers are pleased with the results.

1.What is the new National Sleep Foundation survey on?

A. American kids’ sleeping habits. B. Teenagers’ sleep-related diseases.

C. Activities to prevent sleeplessness. D. Learning problems and lack of sleep.

2.How many hours of sleep do 11-year-olds need every day?

A. 7 hours. B. 8 hours. C. 10 hours. D. 18 hours.

3.Why do teenagers go to sleep late according to Carskadon?

A. They are affected by certain body chemicals.

B. They tend to do things that excite them.

C. They follow their parents’ examples.

D. They don’t need to go to school early.
