If you like bicycling as much as you like playing ball and can’t seem to decide between the two sports, you may want to consider cycle ball—a fun sport that adopts the key attributes from both activities and transforms it into a totally new game..
Also known as red ball, the game was invented in 1893 by German laborers who wished to play polo(马球), but could not afford horses. While the sport has not caught on in North America, it is very fashionable in Europe and even Japan.
Played in an indoor court, cycle ball is similar to soccer in many ways—the aim is to score as many goals as possible, and only the goalkeeper is allowed to touch the ball.
The one big difference? Use of legs is forbidden. Instead, players have to guide the ball across the court, using the front wheels of their bicycles or with their heads. In fact, if a player even touches the floor with his feet during the 14-minute game, it is considered a foul(犯规) and the opposing team gets a free kick.
While the game was initially(最初) played with normal bikes, things are a little different now. The seats of these specialized bikes are positioned over the back tire and they sport a single fixed gear, making it easier for the rider to control the constant back and forth movement required for the game. The handlebars(车把) also point straight up so that the competitors can sit upright while playing and they are about twice the weight of normal bikes, which helps with the stability.
While cycle ball may sound a little strange, it is a fast-paced sport that requires much training, skill, and, is also really fun to watch.
小题1:What does the passage mainly talk about?
A．The origin and development of soccer
B．The differences between cycle ball and soccer.
C．The most popular sports game in the world.
D．A new and fun sports game—cycle ball
小题2:What does the underlined phrase “caught on” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

小题3:What can we know about cycle ball?
A．It is a fast-paced game played in an indoor court
B．It was invented in 1893 by poor British people.
C．It is another name of soccer played by many people.
D．It is a strange game played with normal bikes.
小题4:It can be known from the passage that __________.
A．every player who is playing cycle ball is allowed to touch the ball.
B．the aim of playing cycle ball is to score as many goals as possible.
C．if a player touches the floor with his feet, the opposing team will win
D．heads are not allowed to be used to guide the ball across the court.
小题5:Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
A．Cycle ball is popular both in Japan and other Asian countries.
B．The cycle ball game is popular all over the world.
C．A cycle ball game takes 14 minutes.

If you don’t want people to know too much about you, then you had better keep your fridge contents secret, according to a British market research document released last week.
Researchers peered (凝视) into the fridges of 400 people in Britain and compared the contents with the owners’ lifestyles. They claim to be able to classify the nation’s people by fridge contents.
They say those people can be separated into five categories：nutrition nerds (no social sense), food faddiest (whatever’s in style), martyr mums, fast food fanatics and restaurant regulars.
Nutrition nerds care much about what they put into their bodies. Their fridges are stocked with fruit, vegetables and healthy meat.
People in this category tend to be highly organized and usually work in law or accountancy. The vast majority is single, but if they have a partner, that person will be similar.
A fridge full of vitamins — enriched juices implies its owner works in media or fashion. They tend not to eat the foods they buy. Known as the food faddiest, they just want to be seen as purchasing the latest important things.
A fridge filled with everything from steak to frozen fish suggests the martyr mum. Her fridge tends to be stocked with every kind of product, except what she herself would want. This fridge hints at difficulty balancing family and work life.
Fast food fanatics always buy mineral water or soda pop. The nearest they will get to fresh fruit is tomato sauce. Their fridges hint at someone who works hard and plays hard, also, someone who is not into long term planning.
Finally, a fridge filled with nothing more than a bottle of white wine and some sparkling mineral water implies an owner who is single, lives in a big city and enjoys the finer things in life. The fridge is empty because this person regularly eats in restaurants.
小题1:What can we know from the first two paragraphs?
A．Some researchers are fond of staring at other people’s fridges.
B．People don’t want others to know about their secrets.
C．The food you put in the fridge has something to do with your personality.
D．There are mainly five kinds of lifestyles among British people.
小题2:According to the passage, people who belong to food faddiest_________.  
A．don’t care much about money when buying things
B．will try their best to stay healthy
C．often stay up late to finish their job
D．prefer to ask others about what to do next
小题3:Which of the following is true according to the passage?

B．“Food faddists” like to stock their fridges with all kinds of vitamins.

D．“Fast food fanatics” usually do not stock their fridges with fresh fruit.
小题4:What will those who often dine out put in the fridge?

Are you the type of person who always says“yes”？I’ve come to learn that it is very im-portant to learn to say NO！It’s okay. People are still going to like you. They may even respect you more because they know you are honest.
I，m not saying to say“no" to someone who really needs your help. I’m talking about re-fusing that meeting that you really do not want to attend or that birthday party that you don’t want to be a guest at.
Think for a moment how you feel when you say YES to something that you really don’t want to do. If you’re like I once was，you can’t sleep at night and you think about it too much. It weighs on your mind. You try to find ways out. Whatever you’re saying to yourself，if you really wanted to go，you wouldn’t have all of these thoughts.
So，why not just say NO from the beginning? Maybe you feel like if you don’t show up at the meeting（by the way，it is not one you must attend) your boss isn’t going to like you or your co-workers won’t respect you. Maybe you feel as if your mom，dad or sisters won’t love you as much if you don’t do everything for them that they ask every occasion.
If these people are your true friends，family members，or a good boss，they will like or love you the same no matter what. People treat you the way you teach them to，and if you’re some-one who always says“yes" then that’s what they，re expecting.
You need to do what is right for you. Of course we do have real obligations in life to ful-fill，but we do not have to do everything others want us to do.
小题1:Which of the following statements would the writer agree with？
A．We should try to do what our friends ask us to do.
B．We should help others in need.
C．Always saying“yes" means you are dishonest.
D．Always saying“no" means you are brave.
小题2:What does the underlined word，’ It" in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A．Saying "yes"．
B．A friend's birthday party.
C．Something you’re unwilling to do.
D．Something you think difficult to do.
小题3:The writer believes that if you say“no" to your family members，you’11＿·
A．have the same relationship with them as before
B．have a loose relationship with them
C．disappoint them
D．upset them
小题4:What would be the best title for the passage?
A．Learn to Make a Right Choice B．To Be Yourself
C．Do What You Want to Do D．Learn to Say No
Before you make friends, you have to decide who you want to be your friends. Most people like to have friends who like to do the same kinds of things they do.
The quickest way to make a friend is to smile. When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk to. It may not be easy at first to smile, but remember most people will stay away from a scared or angry looking face.
One easy way to start a conversation with someone is to say something nice about him. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?
Ask your new friends questions about themselves. Who’s their favorite singer, where do they live, what do they do after school are all good questions to start a conversation. Make sure you have something to add to the conversation, too. When someone asks you a question, do have an answer for them. There is nothing that will stop a conversation quicker than a shrugfor an answer.
Kids who show an interest in other kids and who are kind and friendly make good friends. Remember, everyone wants to be around people who like to do similar things and people who are nice to them.
小题1:This passage gives us some advice on_______.
A．how to make friends
B．what kind of person you can make friends with
C．how to start a conversation
D．the importance of smile
小题2:Most people like to make friends with those________.
A．who are sad every day
B．who share the same interest
C．who are fond of talking
D．who say bad things to them
小题3:According to the third paragraph, most people enjoy talking to one_______.
A．who is always smiling
B．who seems to be friendly
C．who praises them
D．who points out their shortcomings
Learning to drive is important to the independence of teenagers, but it is also a great responsibility．Although having a law that keeps 16-year-old drivers from having more than one teenager in the car with them at first seems unfair, there are convincing reasons for this requirement．
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety reports that teens are four times more likely than older drivers to be involved in an automobile accident．It also reports that 16-and 17-year-old drivers are twice as likely to have an accident if they have two teenage friends in the car and four times as likely to have one if they have three or more teenage friends in the car with them．Fatal （ 致命的） crashes of 16-year-old drivers involve the highest percentage of speeding, driver error, and number of passengers．This information is enough to cause any reasonable person to wonder about the wisdom of allowing new teen drivers to take a carload of friends anywhere, even if the law permits it．
A study at the National Institutes of Health indicates that the part of the human brain that controls judgment and evaluates the consequences of our actions might not be fully formed until the age of 25．Until this study, researchers had placed the age at 18．If this is true, it could explain the reckless （鲁莽的） behavior of many teens, behavior that often extends into their twenties．It also could be a strong reason for being cautious about the driving circumstances of young people．
This is not the only study that indicates such caution is necessary．One study at Temple University in Philadelphia examines the results of peer（同龄人） pressure in risky driving situations．The study, which uses a driving game, has an individual guide a car through a course, both alone and in the presence of friends．Three different age groups participated in the study: 13-16, 18-22, and 24 and older．Members of the oldest group showed caution whether driving alone or with friends present, but the two younger groups took more chances when they were with their friends．Furthermore, because these drivers were accustomed to the noise and distraction of many passengers, they were unable to see their own mistakes．Once again, this is a good indication that a law restricting the number of teenagers in the car with a young driver is a good idea．
小题1:What does the author mainly tell us in Paragraph 2?
A．Many deaths have occurred because of inexperience and overconfidence．
B．It' s reasonable to severely limit the passenger number of teen drivers．
C．New teen drivers have to ask permission before driving with friends．
D．There are many causes behind the teens' driving accidents．
小题2:From the two studies, the author probably suggests that ______．
A．different age groups have different peer pressure
B．teenagers often give wrong judgments above passengers' noise
C．underdeveloped brain makes teens ignore their mistakes
D．driving circumstances are bound up with（与…密切相关） the risk of accidents
小题3:We can infer that the law restriction can probably ______．
A．protect teens on the highway
B．raise teens' sense of responsibility
C．reduce the number of fatal crashes
D．force teens to drive with caution
小题4:With which statement would the author most likely disagree?
A．Some teenagers have risky behavior while driving．
B．Certain laws treat teenagers and adults differently．
C．We still need more studies on teen driving．
D．Driving is important to a teenager' s sense of independence．
British Summer Time runs from the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October. In the depths of winter the nights in the UK are anything from 15-19 hours long. Longer nights mean frost and fog are more likely to form.
Twice a year the clocks change, forward in the spring and then back again in the autumn. But why? It happens twice a year. We all change our clocks and watches by one hour. In the spring, we add an hour, and go onto what is called British Summer Time, while in the autumn, we do the reverse, and return to Greenwich Mean Time.
Why bother?
It’s all to do with saving the hours of daylight, and was started by a guy called William Willett, a London builder, who lived in Petts Wood in Kent. Basically, he figured that you could improve the population’s health and happiness by putting forward the clocks by twenty minutes every Sunday in April and do the opposite in September.
Economics
His idea was not taken up, even though a “Daylight Saving Bill” was introduced some five years before the outbreak of World War One. But once the war started, it was considered wise to economics, to promote greater efficiency in using daylight hours, and in the use of artificial lighting. And so in 1916, “Daylight Saving Time” was introduced. Even though most countries abandoned this after that war, some eventually decided that it was a good idea, and most of these nations began to keep it throughout the year.
Experiment
Since 1972, Britain has decided to go with Greenwich Mean Time in winter, and British Summer Time in Summer.
But back in 1968, Britain tried a four-year experiment by advancing time one hour ahead of GMT throughout the year.
But those living further north, particularly in Scotland, found it most unsatisfactory, with dark mornings for much of the year, and the experiment was dropped.
But the arguments go on …and on.
小题1:Why some countries decide to change the clocks after World War One?
A．To improve the people’s health and happiness.
B．To do a certain experiment
C．To save energy to develop economies.
D．All of the above.
小题2:What can you infer from the passage?
A．The idea of changing the clocks suffered disagreement.
B．The people in Scotland don’t change the clocks.
C．The idea was first thought of by an educator.
D．It’s unnecessary to change the clocks.
小题3:What is the real meaning of the last sentence of the passage?
A．Nobody in the UK likes the idea.
B．All things need arguments.
C．The British are fond of arguments.
D．Different views of the idea still exist.
