No one knows for sure when and where the idea of April Fool’s Day for silly jokes started. One thing is for sure：Humans have been celebrating this holiday for hundreds of years，in many cultures.

One popular theory has to do with the calendar. Many ancient cultures celebrated the new year in spring，around April 1. In Europe，Pope Gregory XIII introduced a new calendar in 1582. The calendar named January 1 as the new start of the year. Many people and countries did not accept the change for years. The story goes that people made fun of the people who still celebrated the new year on April 1.

In some countries，people exchanged gifts on New Year’s Day. So another theory is that people began to give joke gifts on April 1 after the calendar changed. But there are probably as many explanations for the tradition as there are cultures that participate.

One thing is for sure，almost everyone has fun！

Mexicans celebrate a kind of fools’ day on December 28. You’re in trouble on that date if you lend someone something，because you won’t get it back！In India，March 31 is the day for tricks. Portuguese，who celebrate on the Sunday or Monday before the Christian holiday of Lent，throw flour on their friends. People in England say playing tricks after noon on April 1 brings bad luck to the jokers. The U.S. holiday doesn’t have special traditions.

Humor expert Joel Goodman of the Humor Project teaches businesses and individuals how to enjoy the positive power of humor in daily life. When asked to define the difference between a good prank and a disgusting one，he explains，“It is the difference between laughing with someone and laughing at them. Humor should lift people up！”

So start thinking now. If it looks like rain，fill someone’s closed umbrella with pieces of paper and watch them pour down when it is open. Glue a coin to the sidewalk with superglue. When people get annoyed trying to pick it up，remember to yell，“APRIL FOOLS！”Of course，kids can reply with the “Disappearing Class”. When the teacher goes out of the room for a moment，all the kids hide. Just remember，the person you play a trick on should be laughing，too. So keep the tradition going in the right spirit.

Peter loved to shop used articles. Almost a month ago, he bought a popular word game that used little pieces of wood with different letters on them. As he was purchasing it, the salesgirl said, “Oh, look, the game box hasn’t even been opened yet. That might be worth some money.”

Peter examined the box and, sure enough, it was completely covered in factory-sealed plastic. And he saw a date of 1973 on the back of the box.

“You should put that up for auction (拍卖) on the Internet, and see what happens,” the salesgirl said.

“Yes, you’re right. People like something rare,” Peter agreed. “I can’t imagine there being very many unopened boxes of this game still around 40 years later.”

“Don’t forget to tell me if you sell it,” the salesgirl smiled.

“No problem,” Peter said.

After he got home, Peter went online to several auction websites looking for his game. But he couldn’t find it. Then he typed in the name of the word game and hit Search. The search result was 543 websites containing information about the changes of the game. Over the years, the game had been produced using letters in different sizes and game boards in different colors. He also found some lists of game fans looking for various versions of the game. Peter emailed some of them, telling them what he had.

Two weeks later, Peter went back to the shop.

“Hello. Do you still remember the unopened word game?”

The salesgirl looked at him for a second, then recognized him and said, “Oh, hi!”

“I’ve got something for you,” Peter said. “I sold the game and made $1,000. Thank you for your suggestion.” He handed her three $100 bills.

“Wow!” the salesgirl cried out. “Thank you. I never expected it.”

1.Which of the following best describes Peter’s word game?

A. It was made around 40 years ago.

B. It had game boards in different sizes.

C. It was kept in a plastic bag with a seal.

D. It had little pieces of wood in different colors.

2.What did the salesgirl probably think of Peter’s word game?

A. Old and handy. B. Rare and valuable.

A. It’s important to keep a promise.

B. It’s great to share in other people’s happiness.

C. We should be grateful for the help from others.

Nowadays more and more people would rather to look for a job on the Internet than in the job market．There are many reasons for my preference，one of which is that a job hunter can find job conveniently．He needn't bother to get recommendations from friend．Besides，a job hunter can get one by simple sending resumes by e-mail but the success rate is very high．Even if one failed to make it，he won't feel embarrassing．
I believe job-hunting on the internet will win favor in more and more jobless people for its convenient，efficiency and success rate．
2．Michael Phelps has broken a 2，000-year-old Olympic record by winning more individual titles than Leonidas of Rhodes．Who was this athlete whose record （12 individual titles） has taken 2000 years to beat？
Phelps has a total of 22 Olympic gold medals，but in terms of individual titles he has only just passed the greatest athlete of the ancient world．Leonidas of Rhodes competed in four Olympiads in 164 BC，160 BC，156 BC and 152 BC and in each of these he won three different foot races．
The three events at which he won were the stadion，a sprint（短跑）of roughly 200m；the diaulos，which was twice the distance of the stadion； and the race in armour（盔甲）．
Unlike most races，the race in armour required competitors to wear heavy armour，possibly including a helmet，a breastplate，shin armour and a shield made from bronze and wood．
"He broke through the distinction between sprinters and endurance（耐力）athletes，"says Paul Cartledge，professor of classics at the University of Cambridge．The race in armour had not previously been considered suitable for sprinters．"They were running in armour，the temperature would be 40℃．You can imagine how it would be in that race．It required completely different muscles and gymnastic skills．"
"There is very little biographical information about Leonidas，and no images of him survive，"says Cartledge．But his name-coming from the Greek word for lion-suggests he was a man of distinction．After his death，"he was respected as a local god in Rhodes，"says Swaddling，the director of a museum．He was also venerated in ancient Greek literature．Pausanias described him as"the most famous runner"．In the 3rd Century，Philostratus the Athenian wrote in his Gymnastikos that Leonidas's achievement proved that not all received wisdom about athletic training and body types was true．
A statue of him in Rhodes displayed the legend："He had the speed of a God．"Quite a reputation for Phelps to live up to．

28．How many individual titles has Phelps won in the Olympics？B
A.22．
B.13．
C.12．
D.9．
29．What can be inferred from the text？A
 A．The conditions of race in armour were unpleasant．
 B．Leonidas was a swimmer with speed and endurance．
 C．Leonidas didn't have his picture drawn in his day．
 D．Phelps owed his success to the influence of Leonidas．
30．The underlined word"venerated"is closest in meaning toD．
A．accepted      
B．collected     
C．shaped      
D．honoured
31．What question does the author mainly discuss？C
A．Who was Philostratus the Athenian？
B．Who is Michael Phelps？
C．Who was Leonidas of Rhodes？
D．Who is Paul Cartledge？
19．For humans，climbing Mount Qomolangma is seen as a great impressive achievement．People make movies，write books，and have essentially developed a whole industry surrounding the challenge that is this mountain．While we consider climbing the mountain as an athletic achievement，there is one animal，the bar-headed goose，does not think so．
    As the species migrates （迁徙）from Central Asia to Southeast Asia every autumn，it must cross over the Himalayan range．These mountains force the bar-headed goose to fly at around 30，000feet above sea level，which is the highest altitude for migratory birds．
    These geese have special adaptions that allow them to survive at the altitude．For example，a special protein （蛋白质）in blood cells that transports oxygen throughout the body allows their blood cells to combine with oxygen．Their circulatory system provides a constant supply of fresh，oxygenated blood to their wing muscles （肌肉）．They have much larger lungs than other birds，which give them the ability to take in more air．
    Scientists initially believe that the geese flow at an extremely high altitude for the full length of their migration．But later the data suggests that the birds use a much more effective way of travel．Instead of remaining at an extremely high altitude to fly over the mountain range，the geese hug the mountains，flying up and down depending on the obstacles （障碍物）in their way．This works better for them because they don't have to use all their energy flying in an area with low oxygen； they can spend time flying at lower altitudes．
The geese also make use of nature to make this work easier．To fly down，they simply allow gravity to pull them．To fly back up，they make use of orographic （地形的）lift，which happens when flowing air meets an obstacle，such as a mountain．The mountain forces the air up，creating an upward draft．The birds take advantage of this draft，expending less of their own energy to fly up the mountain．
The way these birds have adapted to flying across the Asian continent during their annual migration is certainly an amazing way to see nature at work．

33．What does the underlined part"this work"in Paragraph 5 most probably refer to？C
A．To fly down．
B．To fly back up．
C．To fly over the mountain．
D．To fly at lower altitudes．
34．How do the geese behave while crossing over the Himalayan range？B
A．By flowing at an extremely high altitude all the way．
B．By taking advantage of the orographic lift．
C．By smoothing the obstacles in their way．
D．By forcing the air up，creating an upward draft．
35．What's the main idea of this passage？A
A．The geese's amazing migration．
B．The highest flying record of geese．
C．The flying mystery of geese．
D．Mount Qomolangma and its geese．
18．Thosepassers-by（ 过路人 ） were indifferent to the beggar．
