1．Would you eat a ready meal from the fridge rather than cook from scratch？Have you been doing internet shopping rather than going to the stores？What can't you be bothered to do？
A study into how lazy British people are has found more than half of adults are so lazy they'd catch the lift rather than climb two flights of stairs．
Just over 2000 people were quizzed by independent researchers at Nuffield Health，Britain's largest health charity．The results were astonishing．
About one in six people surveyed said if their remote control was broken，they would continue watching the same channel rather than get up．
More than one third of those questioned said they would not run to catch a bus．Worryingly，of the 654 respondents with children，64% said they were often too tired to play with them．
This led the report to conclude that it's no wonder that one in six children in the UK are classified as obese （very fat） before they start school．
Dr Sarah Dauncey，medical director of Nuffield Health，said："People need to get fitter，not just for their own sake，but for the sake of their families，friends and evidently their pets too．
"If we don't start to take control of this problem，a whole generation will become too unfit to perform even the most rudimentary of tasks．"
And Scotland's largest city，Glasgow，was shamed as the most inactive city in the UK，with 75% surveyed admitting they do not get enough exercise，followed closely by Birmingham and Southampton，both with 67%．
The results cause serious challenges for the National Health Service，where obesity-related illnesses such as heart disease and cancer have been on a steady increase for the past 40 years and are costing billions of pounds every year．
61．What causes children in the UK to be obese？D
A．Eating ready meal                                  
B．Watching TV
C．Doing Internet shopping                              
D．Being lazy
62．What can be inferred from the passage？D
A．British people are too lazy to do anything．
B．Internet shopping will do harm to your health．
C．Many people would not run to catch a bus in Britain．
D．People should be more active and take regular exercise to keep fit．
63．Which of the following is Not true according to the passage？A
A．One sixth of British people use remote control when watching TV．
B．People will benefit not only themselves but their families by getting fit．
C．Fatness can cause diseases such as heart disease and cancer．
D．More people get obesity-related illnesses now than 40 years ago．
64．What does the underlined word rudimentary most probably mean？A
A．basic                B．serious                C．vital                  D．hard
65．All the following are among the most lazy cities in the UK exceptC．

2．I have finished my work．

19．The old man walked with a cane （拐杖） slowly into the restaurant．His poor jacket，patched （打补丁的） trousers，and worn-out shoes made him stand out from the usual Saturday morning breakfast crowd．Unforgettable were his pale blue eyes that sparkled like diamonds，large rosy cheeks，and thin lips that held a steady smile．
He walked toward a table by the window．A young waitress watched him and ran over to him，saying，"Here，Sir．Let me give you a hand with that chair．"
Without a word，he smiled and nodded a thank you．She pulled the chair away from the table．Supporting him with one arm，she helped him move in front of the chair，and get comfortably seated．Then she pushed the table up close to him，and leaned his cane against the table where he could reach it．
In a soft，clear voice he said，"Thank you，Miss．"
"You're welcome，Sir．"She replied．"My name is Mary．I'll be back in a moment．If you need anything，just wave at me．"
After he had finished a hearty meal of pancakes，bacon，and hot lemon tea，Mary brought him the change，helping him up from his chair and out from behind the table．She handed him his cane，and walked with him to the front door．Holding the door open for him，she said，"Come back and see us，Sir!"
He nodded a thank you and said softly with a smile，"You are very kind!"
When Mary went to clean his table，she was shocked．Under his plate she found a business card and a note written on the napkin，under which was a $ 100bill．
The note on the napkin read，"Dear Mary，I respect you very much，and you respect yourself，too．It shows by the way you treat others．You have found the secret of happiness．Your kind gestures will shine through those who meet you．"
The man she had served was the owner of the restaurant．This was the first time that she，or any of his employees，had seen him in person．

25．Mary ran over to the old man becauseD．

D．Mary's kind service would bring in more money for her
27．Which of the following titles goes best with the story？B
A．A kind-hearted Girl         B．Kindness Means Opportunities
C．Shining Kindness            D．A Special boss．
6．There are many places to go on safari in Africa，but riding a horse through the flooded waters of Botswana's Okavango Delta must rank as one of the world's most exciting wildlife journeys．
Several safari camps operate as the base for this adventure，providing unique rides twice a day to explore deep into the delta．The camps have excellent horses，professional guides and lots of support workers．They have a reputation for providing a great riding experience．
The morning ride，when the guides take you to beautiful，shallow lakes full of water lilies，tends to be more active．It is unlike any other riding experience．With rainbows forming in the splashing water around you and the sound of huge drops of water bouncing off your body and face．It is truly exciting．You are very likely to come across large wild animals，too．On horseback it is possible to get quite close to elephants，giraffes and many other animals．The sense of excitement and tension levels rise suddenly though，as does your heart rate，as you move closer to them．
In the evening，rides are usually at a more relaxed and unhurried pace．With golden light streaming across the grassy delta and the animals coming out to eat and drink． Sedate though they are，rides at this time of day are still very impressive．As the sun's rays pass through the dust kicked up by the horses，the romance of Africa comes to life．
Back at the camp you can kick off your boots and enjoy excellent food and wine．Looking back on your day，you will find it hard to deny that a horseback Safari is as close as you will ever come to answering the call of the wild．

24．What does the underlined word"They"（in Para 2）refer to？D
A．Flooded waters      B．Wildlife journey
C．Unique rides        D．Safari camps

C．Being part of the scene and getting close to animals．
D．Hunting large animals just as our ancestors did．

16．Wise compromise is one of the basic principle and virtue of the British．
　　If a continental greengrocer asks 14 shillings （or crowns，or francs） for a bunch of radishes，and his customer offer 2，and finally they strike a bargain agreeing on 6 shilling，this is just the low continental habit of bargaining； on the other hand if the British dock-workers or any other workers claim a rise of 4 shillings per day，and the employer first flatly refuse even a penny，but after a six week's strike they agree to a rise of 2 shilling a day-that is yet another proof of the British genius for compromise．Bargaining is a hateful habit； compromise is one of the highest human virtues-the difference between the two is that the first is practiced on the continent，the latter in Great Britain．
　　The genius for compromise has another aspect，too．It has a tendency to unite together everything that is bad．English club life，for instance，unites the duties of social life with the boredom of being alone．An average English house combines all the curses of civilizations with the ups and downs of life in the open．It is all right to have windows，but you must do not have double windows because double would indeed stop the wind from blowing right into the room，and after all，you must be fair and give the wind a chance．It is all right to have central heating in an English home，except in the bathroom，because that is the only place where you are naked and wet at the same time，and you must give British germs a fair chance．The open fire is an accepted，indeed a traditional institution．You sit in front of it and your face is hot while your back is cold．It is a fair compromise between two extremes and settles the problem of how to burn and catch cold at the same time．
　　English spelling is a compromise between documentary expressions and an delicate code-system； spending 3 hours in a queue in front of a cinema is a compromise between entertainment and asceticism（苦行主义）； the English weather is a fair compromise between rain and fog； to employ an English charwoman is a compromise between have a dirty house or cleaning it yourself； Yorkshire pudding is a compromise between a pudding and the county of Yorkshire．
32．What is the tone of author while writing this passage？C
A．Serious．
B．Sincere．
C．Humorous．
D．Delightful．
33．Which of the following is NOT the example of compromise of the British in the passage？C
A．The employer finally promises his workers a rise of 2 shilling a day．
B．People sit in front an open fire and their face is hot while their back is cold．
C．The house has double windows and central heating system in the bathroom．
D．To see a film，some people would like to wait in a queue for 3 hours．
34．What is the weather like in Britain according to the passage？D
A．It is foggy when it is raining．
B．It is determined by humidity．
C．It is sunny and bright．
D．It is either foggy or rainy．
