【题目】 Whether it’s one day off or a week, you don’t need to be among people to have a great time. 1 You can spend your holiday on your own doing something you have no time to do in your everyday life.

Eat your favorite foods. They can bring you much pleasure for sure. You can make a healthy meal at home. Cook something you love but usually don’t have time to make. Instead of having meals at home, you can also go to a local restaurant for something special. Eat it there, or bring it home. 2

Stay away from technology. You may have a chance to find the real beauty of life. Maybe you can’t help playing with your smart phones all day while you are on holiday alone. Why not create more time to go hiking, fly kites or do some other outdoor activities? 3

【题目】阅读下面短文,并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题后面的词数要求)。

One day, a successful businessman was getting ready to go to his office in the morning. When he opened the door of his car, a black dog sleeping under his car suddenly came out and bit(咬) his leg! He was angry and threw a rock at the dog, although he was not able to hit it.

When he reached his office, the businessman called a meeting of his managers. During the meeting, he took out his anger on his managers. His managers were upset about this and took out their own anger on the people working under them. Gradually, the businessman's anger spread through the whole company.

The businessman was still angry after returning home. His wife opened the door. She asked him, "Why are you to late today?" The man shouted at his wife, "I didn't go to the office to play soccer, I went to work. So don't make me angry with your stupid questions."

His wife was upset about being shouted at for no reason. She turned her anger on their son, who was watching TV. "This is all you do. You have no interest in studying! Turn off the TV now! "She shouted.

The son didn't know how to take out his anger. He went out and saw a yellow dog. Then he picked up a rock and threw it at the yellow dog. The dog ran away, barking in pain.

Sometimes, when we are angry about something, we might take out our anger on others who are not to blame (责备) for our mood. This is not fair to others. That's to say, we should learn to control our anger.

【题目】 When the great library of Alexandria burned, the story goes, one book was saved. But it was not a valuable book, and a poor man got it.

The book wasn't very interesting, but between its pages there was something very interesting indeed. It was a thin strip of vellum(羊皮纸)on which was written the secret of the "Touchstone".

The touchstone was a small pebble(鹅卵石)that could turn any common metal into pure gold.

The writing explained that it was lying among thousands and thousands of other pebbles that looked exactly like it. But the secret was this; The real stone would feel warm, while ordinary pebbles are cold.

So the man sold his house, bought a tent, camped on the seashore, and began testing pebbles. He knew that if he picked up normal pebbles and threw them down again because they were cold, he might pick up the same pebbles hundreds of times. So, when he felt one that was cold, he threw it into the sea. He spent a whole day doing this but none of them was the touchstone. Yet he went on and on this way. Pick up a pebble. Cold—throw it into sea. Pick up another. Throw it into the sea. The days stretched into months and the months into years.

One day, however, about midafternoon, he picked up a pebble and it was warm. He threw it into the sea before he realized what he had done. He was used to throwing each pebble into the sea as soon as he picked it up. So when the one he wanted came along, he still threw it away.

So it is with opportunity(机会). Unless we are vigilant, it’s easy to fail to realize an opportunity when it is in hand and it's just as easy to throw it away.

【题目】 Pollution inside homes and buildings kills more than 4 million people each year. Many people die as a result of breathing smoke or from cooking over wood-powered or coal-powered stoves.

One way to reduce the number of deaths is through cooking equipment powered by the sun. Crosby Menzies, a solar power expert in a South African company, described his latest solar cooker called the “Sol-4”. “It’s four square meters of mirrors, six to eight meters in length. It is quite a large cooker.”

The “Sol-4” works by reflecting (反射) light from the sun off large mirrors. The mirrors direct(把……对准)the light as a cooking pan. Then the light heats the pan with solar energy. Within two minutes, the pan is hot enough to cook sausages and onions. In just four minutes, water can be boiled. That is as fast as cooking with natural gas or electricity.

The cooker is also much “friendlier” than other models because people do not have to stand in the sun to use it. And people can prepare meals without having to collect firewood or spend money on coal. Such individuals would be less likely to have breathing illnesses from harmful smoke.

At present, the cooker only works when the sun is shining. But engineers are working on a way to make it work without sunlight. Each cooker costs about $2,000, which is a large amount of money for most Africans. To solve that problem, Crosby Menzies has created a non-governmental organization called Solar Cookers for Africa. It plans to raise money through donations to provide poor people with solar cooking equipment.

1This passage probably comes from .

A.a magazineB.a storybookC.a guidebookD.a textbook

2The “Sol-4” is mainly used to .

A.shorten the time of cooking

B.reduce the cost of making cookers

C.raise money through donations to help African people

D.reduce the number of deaths caused by harmful smoke

3The underlined word “individuals” most probably refers to .

A.cookersB.mirrorsC.peopleD.experts

4How soon can water be boiled in the “Sol-4”?

A.That is much faster than cooking with natural gas.B.Within two minutes.

C.That is as slow as cooking with electricity.D.In only four minutes.

5From the passage, we can infer that .

A.the “Sol-4” will be designed in a smaller size

B.more Africans can use the solar cooker in the future

C.the “Sol-4” is the first product of the South African company

D.the African government will provide poor people with solar cookers
