18.You may think that sailing is a difficult sport,but it is really not hard to learn it.You do not need to be strong.But you need to be quick.And you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind.
First,you must ask yourself,"Where is the wind coming from?Is it coming from ahead or behind or from the side?"You must think about this all the time on the boat.The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail.
Let's start with the wind blowing from the behind.This means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction.Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat.It should be at a 90° angle (角度) to the boat.Then it will catch the wind best.
If the wind is blowing from the side,it is blowing across the boat.In this case,you must keep the sail half way outside the boat.It should be at a 45° angle to the boat. It needs to be out far enough to catch the wind,but it shouldn't flap (摆动).It shouldn't look like on a flagpole.If it is flapping,it is probably out too far,and the boat will slow down.
Sailing into the wind is not possible.If you try,the sail will flap and the boat will stop.You may want to go in that direction.It is possible,but you can't go in a straight line.You must go first in one direction and then in another.This is called tacking.When you are tacking,you must always keep the sail inside the boat.

4.What should you consider first while sailing?C
A.Sailors'strength.
B.Wave levels.
C.Wind directions.
D.Size of sails.
5.What does the word"It"underlined in Paragraph 4refer to?C
A.The boat.
B.The wind.
C.The sail.
D.The angle.
6.What do you have to do when sailing against the wind?D
A.Move in a straight line.
B.Allow the sail to flap.
C.Lower the sail.
D.Tack the boat.
7.Where can you probably find the text?A
A.In a sports magazine.
B.In a science journal.
C.In a physics textbook.
D.In an official report.
16.When you think of the books that are read and taught in high schools across the US,what are the first titles that come to mind?The Great Gasby,Lord of the Flies.The Catcher in the Rye and of Of Mice and Men probably flood your memory.The authors of these books have something in common:They were all white men.
The truth is,many reading lists are short on female and minority authors.And some argue  that teaching the literary canon(文学经典)to students who no longer find relevance(相关性)    in the issues presented will fail to interest teens and ultimately rum them away from reading.
"When we think about summer reading books or adding a new book to a course,we're often looking for women or people of color,"said Scott Campbell,an English teacher at New Trier High School,who admired there's a gap in the curriculum where minority writers should be.
"Women a hundred or so years ago were not encouraged or expected that they might write,this is just one of the after-effects of male domination",Campbell explained.
"I think book lists in schools are sexist(性别歧视的),but I don't think it's the schools'fault,"said Jones from a high schoo1."I think it's because we still think good literature is only    written by white males,which simply isn't true.I do see,though,that teachers are trying to change mat."
Teachers at Hancock High School are doing the similar job.Hancock curricula include books and concepts teachers believe to be more culturally relevant to their students.
Hancock junior Sandra Rodriguez said she likes her school's selections that have replaced  some to the traditional high school reads.
32.Why does the writer mention some books in the first paragraph?A
A.To show these books arc mostly written by white men.
B.To advise students to read these books.
C.T0 comment on the authors.
D.To show these books are classic.
33.Why does Scott Campbell choose books written by women or people of color?B
A.These books are better in content.
B.There are few of such books in the curriculum.
C.He prefers these books.
D.Students like these books more.
34.How does Jones think of the book lists in school?D
A.They are not proper and school should be accused.
B.They are written by white men and are better than others.
C.They are more suit able for boys.
D.They should be changed.
35.What does"the similar job"in the sixth paragraph refer to?B
A.Changing the teaching method of literature.
B.Adding more culturally relevant books to the curriculum.
C.Arousing students'passion for reading.
D.Helpin g students read more books.
3.Secrets of People Who Never Get Sick
How do some friends survive every winter without even catching a cold?Some experts believe that they boost their immunity through simple lifestyle habits.Let's steal their strategies and stay healthy all winter long.
(61)C
It's long been known that friendship is good for your health.In fact,people with six or more types of relationship in their lives were 25% less likely to get sick than those with three or fewer.It's possible that people with various social networks have diverse perceptions of themselves---as a co-worker,friend or community member.That boosts self-esteem and makes it easier to avoid stress.As a result,these people tend to stay healthier.Steal this secret:be open to meeting new people; go to new events and reestablish old friendship.
(62)B
Research has found that moderate exercise can improve immune function and build up resistance to colds and infections.On study of 36overweight women,conducted at Loma Linda University,in California,found that those who walked quickly for 45minutes 5days a week reported half the number of days with cold symptoms during a 15-week period as their sedentary(久坐的) counterparts.Steal the secret:aim for 40to 45minutes of moderate exercise,such as brisk walking,cycling,swimming or light running,at least five days a week.
(63)F
Numerous studies have found that writing about a difficult or painful event not only accelerates the process of coping with it,but also can improve your physical health.When people write about upsetting or distressing experiences,it helps them judge the events more sensibly,understand them better and move on.Steal the secret:set aside twenty minutes a day for three successive days to write about the things that are most important to you now and how they're affecting you.
(64)A
Even small pleasures---having friends over for dinner,playing with your kids in the backyard or going to a concert--can boost your immune system.In fact,according to research at the State University of New York,positive events have a better effect on immune function than negative events.Steal this secret:make time for yourself.Start devoting at least half an hour a day to talking to a friend,reading a book or indulging in your favorite activity.Think of it as preventive medicine.
(65)D
Experts know that pressure increases the chance of catching the cold.The reason?Your body's helper---T cells,which are key to defending against viruses,become weakened when you're worn out.Steal the secret:do some problem-solving.First,take a hard look at the situation and really consider whether you can do anything to change things.If you conclude that you can't change that situation,try to change your physical and emotional reactions to it.Engaging in meditation,yoga or deep-breathing exercises and listing to calming music also help relieve stress.

A.Enjoy the little things.
B.Get moving.
C.Be a social butterfly.
D.Don't get yourself down by stress.
E.Get your funny bone.
F.Keep a journal.
13.Tom appeared on the sidewalk with a bucket of whitewash and a longhandled brush.He stopped by the fence in front of the house where he lived with his aunt Polly.He looked at it,and all joy left him.The fence was long and high.He put the brush into the whitewash and moved it along the top of the fence.He repeated the operation.He felt he could not continue and sat down.
He knew that his friends would arrive soon with all kinds of interesting plans for the day.
They would walk past him and laugh.They would make jokes about his having to work on a beautiful summer Saturday.The thought burned him like fire.
He put his hand into his pockets and took out all that he owned.Perhaps he could find some way to pay someone to do the whitewashing for him.But there was nothing of value in his pockets-nothing that could buy even half an hour of freedom.So he put the bits of toys back into his pockets and gave up the idea.
At this dark and hopeless moment,a wonderful idea came to him.It filled his mind with a great,bright light.Calmly he picked up the brush and started again to whitewash.
While Tom was working,Ben Rogers appeared.Ben was eating an apple as he walked along the street.As he walked along it,he was making noises like the sound of a riverboat.First he shouted loudly,like a boat captain.Then he said"Ding-Dong-Dong","Ding-Dong-Dong"again and again,like the bell of a riverboat.And he made other strange noises.When he came close to Tom,he stopped.
Tom went on whitewashing.He did not look at Ben.Ben stared a moment and then said:"Hello!I'm going swimming,but you can't go,can you?"
No answer.Tom moved his brush carefully along the fence and looked at the result with the eye of an artist.Ben came nearer.Tom's mouth watered for the apple,but he kept on working.
Ben said,"Hello,old fellow,you've got to work,hey?"
Tom turned suddenly and said,"Why,it's you,Ben!I wasn't noticing."
"Say-I'm going swimming.Don't you wish you could?But of course you'd rather work-wouldn't you?Of course you would."
Tom looked at the boy a bit,and said,"What do you call work?"
"Why,isn't that work?"
Tom went back to his whitewashing,and answered carelessly.
"Well,maybe it is,and maybe it isn't.All I know is,it suits Tom Sawyer."
"Oh come,now,you don't mean to say that you like it?"
The brush continued to move.
"Like it?Well,I don't see why I shouldn't like it.Does a boy get a chance to whitewash a fence every day?"
Ben stopped eating his apple.Tom moved his brush back and forth,stepped back to look at the result,added a touch here and there,and stepped back again.Ben watched every move and got more and more interested.Soon he said,"Say,Tom,let me whitewash a little."
Tom thought for a moment,and was about to agree,but he changed his mind.
"No-no-it won't do,Ben.You see,Aunt Polly wants this fence to be perfect.It has got to be done very carefully.I don't think there is one boy in a thousand,maybe two thousand,that can do it well enough."
"No-is that so?Oh come,now-let me just try.Only just a little."
"Ben,I'd like to,but if it isn't done right,I'm afraid Aunt Polly …"
"Oh,I'll be careful.Now let me try.Say-I'll give you the core of my apple."
"Well,here-No,Ben,now don't.I'm afraid …"
"I'll give you all of it."
Tom gave up the brush with unwillingness on his face,but joy in his heart.And while Ben worked at the fence in the hot sun,Tom sat under a tree,eating the apple,and planning how to get more help.There were enough boys.Each one came to laugh,but remained to whitewash.By the time Ben was tired,Tom sold the next chance to Billy for a kite; and when Billy was tired,Johnny bought it for a dead rat-and so on,hour after hour.And when the middle of the afternoon came,Tom had won many treasures.
And he had not worked.He had had a nice idle time all the time,with plenty of company,and the fence had been whitewashed three times.If he hadn't run out of whitewash,Tom would have owned everything belonging to his friends.
He had discovered a great law of human action,namely,that in order to make a man or a boy want a thing,it is only necessary to make the thing difficult to get.

There are a lot of companies throughout the UK,and some of the big ones have motorhomes spread all over the country.At present,the largest network for motorhome hire is provided by Motorhome which is based in Cambridge.If you are in the UK,you may phone 0800612-8719 for details of its motorhome hire information.Motorhome has a network of over 500 vehicles all over England,Scotland and Wales.
Most people wishing to hire a motorhome are families that are looking for an alternative to a European package holiday,especially as flying now has become more expensive,and is considered to be environmentally unfriendly.There is no doubt that the idea of no-fly holidays is going to become more popular as fewer people think it is safe to fly.This explains why more and more people are choosing to hire a motorhome for their holidays.
