   Don’t rely on sunscreen. Yes,you need to slather(大量地涂抹) sunscreen on exposed skin,but other precautions are just as important. Seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., and protect your skin and face with clothing,a hat,and shades.

If your core temperature becomes too high,heat stroke can set in. Avoid ending up in the emergency room by starting slower than normal,then gradually increasing the intensity of your workout over two full weeks. 38

    As we all know it,a hero is someone who have courage and is not afraid to help out. There are many hero in our society such as police officers and firefighters. My hero is my grandfather,which is hardworking,smart,inspired and full of energy. He retires from a company two months ago and now works as editor in a newspaper office. He still works hardly in his old age. My grandfather doesn’t give up easily. He often says, “I will do that I can to contribute to my family and society." In my opinion,our grandfather is really a man whom I should learn from.

   I was bom in England with perfect hearing. In 1990,when I was five,my family moved to the United States. I started getting ear infections every three months or so. We didn't have health insurance at the time and when I got a third infection,my parents couldn't  pay for the treatment. I went deaf in my right ear and was left with 20 percent hearing in my left.

   There was always music on in my house when I was little,because my dad was a DJ,and he played all kinds of music. When I grew up,I was hooked on deejaying(播放音乐) . I wanted to leam more. I e-mailed DJ Shiftee,a well-known New York City DJ:“I know you like a challenge. How about teaching a deaf person to deejay?” He wrote back the next day: “Challenge accepted." He tutored me twice a week for two years,helping me develop correct technique. I practiced four hours a dai. Nbw when I'm performing,muscle memory takes over.

   When I started,I wouldn't tell the club managers I was deaf. I would just show up,introduce myself,and start playing music. At the end of the night,they were always so surprised that I couldn't hear. Sometimes I would bring doctors’ notes because they wouldn't believe me. It was what I wanted: they were giving me the chance to play because I was good,not out of sympathy.

   For a show,I set up one speaker facing my left side,my good ear. The speakers that play the bass(低音) are on the floor behind me so I can hear some of the lower frequencies and feel the beat in my feet. I also use software that turns the music into lines of color on a computer screen. For example,red is the bass,and green is the melody(主旋律) .I'm visually hearing the music. What I love about deejaying is the creativity,what you can do with a machine,two turntables,and a mixer.

   I go to elementary schools for the deaf and talk to the students about motivation and believing in themselves. I'm big on talking to the parents. Many parents nearly give up their deaf Jcids,but I always tell them ,“My advice to you is to let [your kids] chase their dreams,I'm a deaf DJ,so why not?”

   A group of police blocks off narrow streets with their cars. They move quietly,spot the target,and close in,taking a group of smugglers(走私贩) by surprise. A few seconds later,the victims are discovered.

   The location: a street market in the city of Sao Paulo,Brazil. The victims: birds,American lizards,and tortoises snatched(抢走） from the wild. The smugglers planned to sell them at the market.

   “People who want to own a wild animal fbel the illegal wild animal trade,” says Juliana Machado Ferreira,a National Geographic explorer who works to fight the illegal wildlife trade. Removing too many animals from the wild upsets the balance of nature. aIf people truly love wildlife,they will want them to be free,” she says.

   Each day illegally caught wild animals are carried thousands of miles to be sold as pets,food,or ingredients for traditional medicines. “Wildlife illegal trade is one of the largest illegal trades in the world,worth about 20 billion dollars a year,” says Matthew Pritchett of Freeland,an organization that fights the illegal wildlife trade. “The United States is one of the top three markets in the world for illegal wildlife products."

   Smugglers use special ways to take the animals through airport security checks. But smart police use their own tricks to catch them. Read the following story.

   How many finches — small singing birds — can you fit inside a purse? At least 25 ,as it turns out. When a woman from Guyana,a country in northeast South America,started acting nervously at JFK airport,U.S., customers and border protection agents x-rayed her bags.

   To wear rohes and wigs(长袍和假发) ，or to not wear robes and wigs: that is the question. In 1776,when the United States declared its independence from England,the Founding Fathers set out to create a government and wrote the most important political documents. It is not surprising that they used English common law as the basis of our society’s laws. Apparently,they also debated court dress. Thomas Jefferson,and a few of his colleagues,wanted judges to wear suits in order to rid the influence of the English era. John Adams,on the other hand,wanted to keep the tradition alive. The Founding Fathers did what they did best,and compromised. They threw away the uncomfortable wigs and kept the robes.

   At the time,Supreme Court Justices usually wore red robes. But Chief Justice John Marshall changed the dress rules by putting on a black robe.

He started a new fashion and judges in the United States have been wearing black ever since.

   The tradition of robes came from the English,but why were the English wearing robes in the first place? The wearing of robes by justices can date back to the 15th century. English judges wore red,green,reddish blue,and black robes depending on the fashions of the time. In 1635,it was decided that reddish blue robes should be worn in the summer and black for the winter. It was also decided that red robes should be worn on ceremonial occasions.

   The origins of wearing the black robe in England are debated among historians. Most historians say that the black robe tradition started with the mourning of the death of Queen Mary II in 1694.

   However,in the United States,the tradition of black robes Was not always followed. Former Idaho Supreme Court Justice,Byron Johnson,chose to wear a royal blue robe stating in a letter to his friend that he sat in the “black and blue” court.

   Wearing black robes will most likely continue in the United States for a long time to come. However,everyone,especially judges,should take a moment to thank Thomas Jefferson for convincing John Adams to give up those ridiculous wigs.

6. The Founding Fathers disagreed about whether.

   A. judges should debate like English judges

   B. judges should dress in the English way

   C. they should obey English common law

   D. they should set up a new government

7. What was Jefferson's attitude towards the English tradition?

    A. He doubted it. B. He tolerated it.

   C. He was against it. D. He was uncertain of it.

8. Black robes became a tradition of American courts because of .

   A. John Adams’ argument

   B. John Marshall's example

   C. the dress rules in English courts

   D. the Founding Fathers’ compromises

9. The black robe in English courts may go back to.

   A. the 15th century   B. the 18th century   C. the year of 1635   D. the year of 1694

10. How does the author sound when telling the stories in the text?

   C. Cautious. D. Serious.

   Students in many British schools usually wear their uniforms on weekdays. However,61.(recent) the students at LVS Ascot Junior School in England were wearing pajamas (睡衣) . They did this not simply for fun,62. for a local charity called Christopher s Smile.

   Christopher's Smile 63. (set) up in 2008 by Karen & Kevin Capel,64. only son Christopher died of cancer at a young age. They hoped their charity would help pay 65. more research into children's cancers. Since then,the charity has raised lots of money and gotten more and more 66.(volunteer) . Every year,thousands of people join 67. (differ) activities such as charity walk or run to show their support for Christopher's Smile.

   68. (dress) in thdr pajamas,the students at LVS Ascot Junior School also wanted to do something for the sick children. “We organized the event ‘Pajamas Day,69. (support) Christopher's Smile.

   E-cigarettes began as a way to stop people from smoking tobacco. But a new study among teens suggests a scary. effect: E-cigarettes are now appealing to non-smokers,as well. In a survey of over 2 ,000 California high school juniors and seniors,researchers from the University of Southern California discovered that over 40 percent of teen e-cigarette smokers have never smoked traditional cigarettes.

   The National Youth Tobacco Survey reports a nearly 9 percent increase in the number of high school students using e-cigarettes from 2013 to 2014,more than enough to stifle (掩盖) the 3. 5 percent decrease in teen cigarette use,as recorded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. While 9 percent may not sound like a ton,the amount of middle and high school students using e-cigarettes has actually tripled(增至三倍) .

   How,despite decades of anti-smoking advocacy efforts,have e-cigarettes gained such massive popularity in such a short time? Scientists say that the “renormalization” of teen smoking may not be entirely self-inflicted(自己造成的) .A study found that 34 percent of adolescent e-smokers are exposed to electronic cigarettes via a member of their family or friend groups.

   Advertising also makes e-cigarettes look cool. E-cigarettes,which are not very expensive,are marketed as a safe alternative to traditional cigarettes,and teens are buying the message. In a recent study in North Carolina,high schoolers easily made a list of the dangers of smoking tobacco,but when asked to do the same with regard to e-cigarettes,the teens were unsure whether the devices could be considered safe. Some weren't even aware that e-cigarettes contain nicotine. But e-cigarettes do contain nicotine. It is highly addictive,which is why some consider e-cigarettes a gateway drug.

   If stressing the dangers of tobacco helped make cigarettes uncool,we can do the same to destroy e-cigarettes.

29. According to Paragraph 1 ,what is frightening is that .

   A. few tobacco smokers quit smoking

   B. non-smokers are attracted to e-cigarettes

   C. more and more people are smoking tobacco

   D. smokers are replacing tobacco with e-cigarettes 

30. From 2013 to 2014,student e-cigarette smokers in high school increased by about .

   A. 3. 5%   B. 9% 

   C. 27%   D. 40%

31. About one third of teen e-smokers use e-cigarettes because of .

   A. e-cigarettes’ low prices

   B. cool designs of e-cigarettes

   C. the influence of people around them.

   D. their dislike of traditional cigarettes

32. What can we infer from Paragraph 4 ?

   A. E-cigarettes are different from drugs.

   B. Most teens know the dangers of e-cigarettes.

   I still remember that night after my senior high school entrance examination. Even though I was at the top of my class,I was not good in history. At around 10 pm,I tried to sleep,and my eyes just wouldn't close. Suddenly,I saw my dad coming into my room,with smile on his face,asked me to go to sleep. I told him that I couldn't get to sleep. He called me into my room and put his hand on my head. I didn't even realize that I had fallen asleep. I took up my exam the next day and the result was satisfied. It's tough to put into word what parents do for us but times like this reminds me just how wonderful parents truly are.
