2.What does the word"home"mean to you?How do you say the word in French?In Spanish?In your language?Although people usually know what the word means,it often has no exact translation.It's not surprising really,because the idea of home differs from country to country,and from person to person.A home is more than a roof and four walls.It's the cooking,eating,talking,playing and family living that go on inside,which are important as well.And at home you usually feel safe and relaxed.
But it's not just that homes look different in different countries,they also contain different things and reveal(显示) different attitudes and needs.For example,in cold northern Europe,there's a fire in the living room or kitchen and all the chairs face it.In the south,where the sun shines a lot and it's more important to keep the heat out,there are small windows,cool stone floors and often no carpets.We asked some people about their homes.
How often do people move house in your country?
"In my country many people don't stay in one place for a very long time.They often move every ten years or so."
Cheryl,Boston,USA
What are typical features of homes in your country?
"In Britain,even in town there's always a garden and sometimes a cellar(地下室).We have separate bedrooms and living rooms.But we don't often have balconies (阳台).The weather isn't warm enough!"
-Pat,Exeter,England
55.Which one is true according to the passage?B
A.People in Britain seldom have balconies because it's so hot outside.
B."Home"is a place where you feel safe and relaxed.
C.Although homes look different in different countries,they have the same needs.
D.Houses in northern Europe always have big windows and cool stone floors.
56.The word"home"has no exact translation becauseC.
A.people can't find this word in the dictionary
B.no one knows what it is
C.it has different meanings in different countries
D.people can't understand each other very well
57.You canB at home according to the passage.
A.eat,play,and teach students     
B.cook,talk,and play games
C.swim,eat,and make friends       
D.do nothing
58.Why is it important to keep the heat out of the houses in southern Europe?D
A.Because they want to breathe fresh air outside.
B.Because there's a fire in the living room.
C.Because they wear heavy clothing all day long.
D.Because the sun there shines a lot.
19.A new study found evidence of aggressive behavior in children who have four or more servings of soft drinks every day.
Information for the study came from the mothers of 3,000five-year-olds.Researchers asked the women to keep a record of how many servings of soft drinks their children drank over a two-month period.The women were also asked to complete a checklist of their children's behavior.
The researchers found that 43percent of the boys and girls drank at least one daily serving of soda.Four percent of the youngsters had four or more sodas to drink every day.
Shakira Suglia is with Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health in New York City.She worked on the study with researchers from the University of Vermont and Harvard University School of Public Health.She says they found that children who drank the most soda were more than two times as likely as those who drank no soda to show signs of aggression.
"For the children who consumed four or more soft drinks per day,we see an association between aggressive behaviors,attention problems and withdrawn behaviors."
The aggressive behaviors included destroying possessions belonging to others,taking part in fights and physically attacking people.
Shakira Suglia says the researchers identified the link after they considered ocio-demographic factors like the child's age and sex.They also considered other possible influences,such as hether the boys and girls were eating sweets or given fruit drinks on a normal day.In addition,the researchers examined parenting styles and other social conditions that might be taking place in the home.
Doctor Suglia says it is not clear why young children who drink a lot of soda have behavior problems.
"We can't prove that this is a direct cause and effect relationship.Having said that,there are a lot of ingredients in soda,a lot of ingredients that have not been examined in relation to behavior."
A substance often found in soft drinks is caffeine,which helps to make people feel energized.Doctor Suglia suggests that caffeine could be causing the five year olds to be more aggressive.
The research is part of a larger study called the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study.It follows 5,000poor mothers and their children in 20American cities.
Earlier studies of young adults have found the highest sugar levels in those who carry weapons and show signs of negative social behavior.
59.What's the purpose of writing this passage?B
A.To persuade parents to forbid their children have soft drinks.B.To present the result of a study.
C.To show why children are aggressive                    D.To scold the products of soft drink

a.ask for more drinks    b.destroying possessions belonging to others    c.carry weapons
d.taking part in fights    e.physically attack people        f.be negative to society
A.a,b,c            B.c,e,f           C.b,d,e          D.b,d,f
61.From the passage we can infer that in order to help control the children's behaviors,parents shouldD.

6.Why play games?Because they are fun,and a lot more besides.Following the rules…planning your next move…acting as a team member…these are all"game"ideas that you will come across throughout your life.
Think about some of the games you played as a young child,such as rope-jumping and hide-and-seek(捉迷藏).Some games are entertaining and fun.But perhaps more importantly,they translate into exciting dreams that teach children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow the rest of their lives,such as taking turns and cooperating(合作).
Many children's games have a practical side.Children around the world play games that prepare them for work they will do as grown-ups.For instance,some Saudi Arabian children play a game called bones,which sharpens the hand-eye coordination(协调)needed in hunting.
Many sports encourage national or local pride.The most famous games of all,the Olympic Games,bring athletes from around the world together to take part in friendly competition.People who watch the event wave flags,knowing that a gold medal is a win for an entire country,not just the athlete who earned it.For countries experiencing natural disasters or war,an Olympic win can mean so much.
Sports are also an event that unites people.Soccer is the most popular sport in the world.People on all continents play it--some for fun and some for a living.Nicolette Iribarne,a Californian soccer player,has discovered a way to spread hope through soccer.He created a foundation to provide poor children with not only soccer balls but also a promising future.
Next time you play your favorite game or sport,think about why you enjoy it,what skills are needed,and whether these skills will help you in other aspects of your life.

A.describe life in an exciting way
B.turn real-life experiences into a play
C.make learning life skills more interesting

C.It helps the country out of natural disasters.

4.It was New Year's Night.An aged man was standing at a window.He raised his sad eyes towards the deep blue sky,where the stars were floating like white lilies (百合) on the surface of a clear calm lake.
He had already passed sixty and brought from his journey nothing but errors and regrets.Now his health was poor,his mind empty,his heart sorrowful (悲伤的).
The days of his youth appeared like dreams before him,and he remembered the serious moment when his father placed him at the entrance of the two roads---one leading to a peaceful,sunny place,covered with flowers,fruits and filled with soft,sweet songs; the other leading to a deep,dark cave,which was endless,where poison(毒) flowed (流淌) instead of water and devils (魔鬼) and poisonous snakes hissed (发出嘶嘶声) and crawled.
He saw the lights flowing away in the darkness.These were the days of his wasted life; he saw a star fall down from the sky and disappeared,and this was the symbol of himself.His regret like a sharp arrow struck deeply into his heart.Then he remembered his friends in his childhood.But they had made their way to success and were now honored and happy on this night.
The clock in the high church tower struck and the sound made him remember his parents'early love for him.They had taught him and prayed to God for his good.But he chose the wrong way.With shame and sorrow he dared no longer look towards that heaven where his father lived.His darkened eyes were full of tears,and with a hopeless effort,he burst out a cry:"Come back,my early days!Come back!"
His youth did return,for all this was only a dream which he had on New Year's Night.He was still young though his faults (过错) were real; he had not yet entered the deep,dark cave,and he was still free to walk on the road which leads to the peaceful and sunny land.
Those who still wander (徘徊) on the entrance of life,hesitating  to choose the bright road,remember that when years are passed and your feet stumble (蹒跚) on the dark mountains,you will cry bitterly,but in vain (徒劳地):"Oh youth,return!Oh give me back my early days!"

C.didn't enter the deep,dark cave when he was young.

B.He suggests the aged man will have a bright future.
