Passage 7(2014 江苏镇江，C)

“In my day,we had to walk a mile to school—uphill,both ways." That may sound like an old joke.Today,only 13 percent of kids walk to school,down from 66 percent 30 years ago.

Studies show that fewer children are walking and biking to school,and more children are at risk of becoming overweight. Changing behaviors of children and parents requires creative ways that are safe and fun.

A walking school bus can be both.

It works like a bus,picking up passengers along the way at designated (指定的) “bus stops” except everyone is walking!

The Walking School Bus works as a supervised group of children walking to and from school along a safe and enjoyable set route.There are at least two parents in a group.One parent “drives” at the front of the bus,while the other parent supervises at the back. The different supervisors go with the children to and from school. Ad- ditional (增加的) parents may be needed depending on the walking environment.

The “bus” can go as often as parents want to “ drive” it and children want to use it.This means that it can even work as little as one morning or afternoon each week. All children are welcome to join the bus even if their parents cannot be drivers. And the service is free.

Socially,it's great because the children meet other children;oth?erwise they would only know by sight.

“ My children have formed some good friendships because of the Walking Bus.The parents get to know other parents too!" a parent said From our experience of the Walking Bus,it has only been a meaningful thing.lt gets all of us walking more and the children do not complain about walking like they used to.

Some kids said compared to the Walking School Bus,it's boring in a car when they were asked why not get into a car.

Besides these,it might have a good effect on heavy traffic.

1. How many students walked to school 30 years ago?

C. 30 percent. D.53 percent.

2. What does the underlined word “supervised” mean in the pas?sage?

C. required D. improved

3. What can the Walking School Bus NOT do to help the children .

A. make more friends

B. reduce the risk of being overweight

C. exercise more

D. complain about walking

4. The best title of this passage is

A. A new way to exercise

Noah did not like American schools. Sometimes 70 children of all ages were crammed ( into one-room schoolhouses with poor books and untrained teachers. Their books came from England. Noah thought that Americans should learn from American books,so in 1783,Noah wrote his own textbook A Grammatical Institute of the English Language.

When Noah was 43 ,he started writing the first American dictionary. He clid that because Americans in different parts of the country spelled,pronounced and used words differently. He thought that all Americans should speak in the same way. He also thought that Americans should not speak and spell just like the English. Noah used American spellings like color instead of the English colour and music instead of musick.

Noah did many things in his life.He worked for copyright laws,wrote textbooks,Americanized the English language,and edited magazines. When Noah Webster died in 1843,he was considered an American hero.

Passage 1 ( 2015 河北)

Many people believe that yellowing and wetness are the greatest enemy of stamps. In fact,stamps are afraid of not only wetness,but also light and dirty things.People protect their stamps in several different ways.

To protect stamps,we should never touch the stamps with our hands.This avoids moving dirty things onto them.Stamp tweezers (慑子) should be used in all conditions.

Stamps are printed things.The colour will slowly disappear if the stamps are put in the light for a long time. So we should not put stamps in the light for long.Direct sunlight must be avoided as well.

Wetness is an important problem for stamps.Some collectors will put stamps in separate plastic (塑料) bags. However,it is possible that some stamps have taken in some water from the air before they are put into the plastic bags.Stamps become yellow easily and rapidly after they take in wet air.To protect the stamps,some people also put the stamps into a special room which has a machine to keep the air cool and dry.However,not many people can afford that.

To keep stamps,stamp collectors usually put them under plastic covers.lt is a common and simple way.This helps because the plastic cover keeps the stamps off the wet air. It also stops the fingers from touching the stamps.

Some collectors prefer to store stamps inside a plastic box with desiccants (干燥剂) .However,we should take care not to let the stamps touch the desiccants.On top of that,don't take your stamps out on a wet day.
