题目内容

In Britain, it’s bottoms up from the week before Christmas till the last firework explodes in the sky announcing the new year. The last Friday before Christmas, popularly known as ‘Mad Friday’, is one of the busiest periods for the country’s pubs and clubs.

But it’s not just the bars that get busy. Ambulances and A&E departments around Britain get packed out too. Head injuries, cuts, falls…it’s easy to end up hurting yourself or others when self-control disappear and your head is spinning due to alcoho1 revelers have been warned by the health authorities about the dangers of deadly drinking but drinking crazily seems to be part of the festivities for some.

The charity Alcohol Concern is running a campaign of restriction by encouraging people to have a dry January.

Jackie Ballard, the charity’s Chief Executive, believes the campaign has been successful in recent years. She says, “More than two-thirds of people even six months later are drinking at reduced levels having had a month off drink. But also a study has shown the impact it has on people’s health reducing their blood pressure and blood sugar levels.”

The study by the University of Sussex followed up nearly 900 participants in Alcohol Concern’s Dry January campaign and found out that 72％of them had kept harmful drinking sessions down and 4％were still not drinking.

Moderation (适度) seems to be the key to everything. The official recommendation for women is not to regularly drink more than 2 to 3 units of alcohol a day. The limit for men is 3 to 4 units of alcohol — no more than a pint of 5.2％ABV lager, beer or cider.

There is no doubt that teens today are extremely busy. Homework piles up and extra-curricular (课外的) activities are time-consuming. Often, teens have to take part in a sport or activity after school, and they are up until 10:00 or later doing homework. Getting teenagers involved in volunteer opportunities can give them a sense of accomplishment that is not connected with sports or school.

Teenagers are often in their own little world. Helping them get involved in volunteering opportunities is the perfect way for them to open up that world and give their time to a good cause.

The key to getting teens involved in volunteer work is to find an opportunity that will fit into their schedule and find something that interests them. Also, keep it close to home. If they have to travel a long distance to volunteer, it’s less likely to be accomplished.

My son has helped with the local library’s reading program for two summers. It is close to home and the schedule is very elastic. We go in and choose days that work with his schedule and he volunteers for about 2 hours at a time. He is responsible for helping kids get signed up for the summer reading program and helping them record the hours they read. It is only a one-week time commitment, but it is very rewarding.

When teens volunteer they often see that there are others more needy than themselves. They also learn time management. Your teen will become a more rounded, less self-centred individual.

Colleges see thousands of students applying for admission every year. If your teen has shown the devotion to volunteer in the community, it can give him the advantage for college admission or scholarship opportunities. So, volunteering is good for their present and their future!

1.What is the text mainly about?

A. The heavy loads faced by teens toady.

B. The benefits of volunteering for teens.

C. The author’s son’s volunteering experience.

D. The requirements of volunteering.

2.The author of the text probably_______.

A. never thought his son would volunteer

B. tries to limit his son’s volunteering time

C. supports his son in volunteering

D. is concerned about his son’s learning

3.We can infer from the last paragraph that_______.

A. colleges show more preference for students with volunteering experiences

B. volunteering can help a teen stand out as an excellent student

C. scholarship opportunities are only offered to excellent students

D. one can’t become an excellent student without volunteering experience

4.The underlined word “elastic” in the fourth paragraph can be best replaced by “ ”.

A. independent B. tight

C. precious D. flexible

Last Saturday, my parents and I paid visit to my grandparents by train. There was a

large number of people in the crowded train, but everyone help those who had lots of

baggage and behaved politely. Along the way, we enjoyed beautifully views. At first, we saw

one hill after another. Then what came into our eye were fields with green crops. In a six-hour

trip, we arrived at my grandparents’ house. Exhausted though I felt, but I was happy to see my

grandparents, which I hadn’t seen for a long time. It’s really an excited trip because it was the

first time I had taken so a long-distance train.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

What makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? 1.

We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. 2. Mental exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. 3. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.

4. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive things to their children, such as “That was a very clever thing you did. ” or “ 5. ”

A. A healthy body contributes to one's intelligence.

B. Parents should also be careful about what they say to young children.

C. What people want to express is like this.

D. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent.

E. It needs exercise.

F. You are such a smart child.

G. These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.

Have you wondered why different animals or pests have their particular colours? Colours in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.

Birds, especially seagulls（海鸥） are very fond of locusts（蝗虫）, but birds can’t easily catch locusts because locusts change their colours together with the change of the colour of crops（庄稼）. When crops are green, locusts look green. But when crops are ripe（成熟的）, locusts take on exactly the same brown colour as crops have. Some other pests with different colours from plants are usually easily found and eaten by their enemies. So they have to hide themselves in terror for lives and appear only at night.

If you study the animal life in any part of the world, you will find the main use of colouring is to protect themselves, bears, wolves and other beasts move quietly through forests. They are usually invisible to the eyes of hunters, because they have the colour much like the barks(树皮) of trees.

An even more strange act remains to be noticed. A kind of fish living in seas can send out a kind of very black liquid when it faces danger. While the liquid is over, its enemies cannot find it, and it quickly swims away. Thus,it has existed（存活）up to now though it is not powerful at all.

1.This passage mainly talks about ______.

A. the change of colour in locusts

B. the protective colouration of animals and pests

C. how a certain sea fish protects itself

D. animals or pests can dye themselves different colours

2.The pests that have different colours from plants usually appear at night because ______.

A. their enemies can easily find them and eat them

B. they have the habit of coming out in darkness

C. it’s easy for them to destroy plants in darkness

D. birds take their rests when night comes

3.What does the word “invisible” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. Can’t be seen B. Can be seen

C. Can’t move D. Can’t change
