     From preschool forward, most teachers strongly urge parents to have their children read-or be read
to-on a reading schedule throughout the year. This includes summer months, holiday breaks, or any time
when school is out. The key is to always make reading fun and a time to look forward to. Then what are
things parents should keep in mind to create fun reading?   
     Take advantage of weather. Be adventurous and make it a game as to where you should read to your
child and what. In warm weather, read next to a pond or lake, under a tree, or even in the tree house.
One mother reads to her young child in their children's pool in the backyard during the summer months.
Another mom finishes the longedfor daily trip to the park in the spring or fall by reading a book before
they leave. Cold months can mix reading activities by having books about snowmen, snowfalls, winter
holidays, or sports such as ice skating.  
     Build a reading activity into life's planning. Children of all ages should learn the connection between
reading and knowledge. If your family is adding a flower bed, have children read about how to prepare a
bed, what kinds of flowers are suitable for the area of the country and when they should be planted.
Getting a new family pet? Read up on varieties of dogs, care required, and even stories about children
and their pets. Traveling somewhere? You guessed it, read all about your destination first and you and
your children will have the added benefit of knowing more about the area when you arrive.  
      Create a book discussion. Some fun ways for kids are to have book discussions, which can be done
with family members by flashlight in the backyard, during a summer outing, or even over breakfast. Be
creative! Parents may ask the child some questions, such as: Did you like the book? Why or why not?
Who was your favorite character? Did you like how it ended? Parents can also create a book club with
kids in the neighborhood, where they can have a book discussion. A simple discussion may last as short
as 20 minutes, or longer as appropriate. The book club may have each child tell about a particular book
they read each week. Taking turns with sharing books can bring a lot of fun!

     Farmers use different kinds of soil protection methods to keep their land from being damaged by farming or the forces of nature. One important form of soil protection is the use of windbreaks. Windbreaks are barriers (障碍) formed by trees and other plants. Farmers plant these barriers around their fields.
There have been studies done on windbreaks in parts of West Africa, for example. They found that grain harvests can be twenty percent higher in fields protected by windbreaks ______________________ fields without such protection.
     But windbreaks seem to work best when they allow some winds to pass through them. If the wall of trees and plants block the wind completely, the violent air motions (移动) will take place close to the ground. These motions will lift soil into the air where it will be blown away.
     For this reason, a windbreak is best if it has only sixty to eighty percent of the trees and plants needed to make a solid line. An easy rule to remember is that windbreaks can protect areas up to ten times the height of the tallest trees in the windbreak. There should be at least two lines in each windbreak. One line should be large trees. The second line, right next to it, can be shorter trees and other plants with leaves. Locally grown trees and plants are best for windbreaks.
     Windbreaks can stop the wind blowing soil away. They also keep the wind from destroying or damaging crops. They are very important for protecting grain crops.
Questions:  
1. List at least two advantages of windbreaks based on the text. (Please answer within 8 words.)
① ______________________________.  ② _________________________________.
2. What's the main idea of paragraph 4? (Please answer within 8 words.)

3.Fill in the blank in paragraph 2 with proper words. (Please answer within 4 words.)

4.Which sentence in the text is the closest in meaning to the following one?
If the wind can't pass through the windbreaks, the strong air movements will happen close to the ground.

[1] You've known your best friend for many years and shared many precious moments together, they
have always been there for you and have been your rock to lean on when you were down. Now
someone is making you send them away, and you may never see them again. How do you feel?
[2] This is how many Harbin citizens are currently feeling as a new policy has recently been passed
banning large dogs from being kept in urban areas. Sadly then, all current owners have to _________
_________. Understandably this is heartbreaking.
[3] The animals are being forced away from the city under the banner(旗号) of public safety and
cleanliness. It's understandable that city officials want to create a safe and clean environment for the
people of Harbin, but is the ban reasonable? Are big dogs that much of a danger and dirtier than
smaller dogs? I can understand the cleanliness issue: there's nothing worse than walking in dog wastes
and having to clean it off your shoes. It's disgusting! But smaller dogs create just as much mess, so
the problem will still be lying around.
[4] Cities in other countries have no policies dictating what kind of dog one can own. But their streets
are still clean and people aren't getting chased around by crazy dogs. Dog owners should be educated
properly in how to look after their animals and be punished for breaking the laws. The dog doesn't
break the law by using the sidewalk as a toilet; the owner does for not cleaning afterwards. Maybe
more severe punishments for the few offending owners will be a better solution, because many dog
owners do clean up after their animals.

     Choose friends who make you feel happy!
     Not long ago, I opened an e-mail from Jennifer, a lady I knew through business in Guelph, Ontario,
Canada, "I have been seeing how I feel after interacting with different people and thinking who I feel good about,   1  "
     Then she invited me and eleven other women to a "Movie Night" to be held every six weeks at her
house. She promised we were sure to enjoy a good time.   2  She made it clear in her invitation that there was no pressure to show up to all or any movie nights. Wonderful!   3  I gratefully accepted her kind
invitation.
       4  Although all the women were eager to participate, some said they didn't see themselves as
optimistic people. "I told them they didn't have to be cheerful around me all the time. I invited them
because they made me feel happy," she says.
       5  In a US study, researchers measured the happiness of 4739 people at regular interval over 20
years. The study found that a person's happiness depends on the happiness of people they connect with.
Amazingly it also found that a person's happiness spreads not only between direct friends, but also
among friends of your friends' friends!
     A. She is one of my good friends.
     B. Research shows such gatherings make sense.

     Kelly Reeves was getting ready for a trip when her phone slipped into a sink full of water. Panic
moment! She quickly picked up the wet phone and tried to turn it on, but nothing worked. Her first
reaction? She got dressed, drove to the nearest store, and bought a new model at full price.    
A new study finds that fear of losing your phone is a common illness. About 66 percent of those
surveyed suffer from nomophobia or "no mobile phone phobia". Interestingly, more women worry about
losing their phone than men.    
     Fortunately, there's a solution.    
     The first step is to figure out if you have nomophobia. Checking your phone too often is one thing, but
the true sign of a problem is that you can't conduct business or go about your routine when the fear
becomes so severe.    
     Do you go to unusual lengths to make sure you have your phone? That's another sign of a problem.
If you find you check your phone plenty of times per hour, or a total of an hour per day, there may be
a problem.    
     Some of the treatments are similar to those for treating anxiety attacks: Leaving the phone behind and
not checking e-mail or text messages, and then learning to tolerate the after anxiety. Even if this leads to
a high level of worry and stress, the solution is to push through the fear and learn to deal with not having
your phone.    
     Of course, there are also technological alternatives. Luis Levy, a co-founder at Novy PR, says he
uses an application called Cerberus that can automatically track the location of his phone. To find it, he
can just go to a Web site and see the phone's location.    
     He also insures his phone through a service called Asurion. The company's description of its product
reads like a prescription for anxiety: "60 million phones are lost, stolen or damaged each year. You'll
have complete peace of mind knowing that your phone is protected and you can quickly reconnect with
family, friends and work, as soon as the very next day!"
1. Why does the author mention Kelly's experience in the first paragraph?
A. To inform us that mobile phones are useful.  
B. To introduce the topic for discussion.
C. To tell us we should get phones ready for a trip.
D.To warn us that we should be careful.
2. The underlined word "omophobia" in Paragraph 2 means ________.
A. Fear of losing mobile phones.    
B. Habits of using mobile phones
C. Independence of mobile phones.  
D. Eagerness for new mobile phones.
3. Which of the following is a way to treat nomophobia?
A. Learning more about modern technology.  
B. Avoiding using phone for some time
C. Not using a mobile phone in one's daily work.
D.Protecting one's phone against any damage.
4. Why can the service called Asurion help to treat nomophobia?
A. It will give you a new phone through insurance.
B. It lets you know other people also lose their phones.
C. It gives you a prescription to treat nomophobia.
D. It enables you to reconnect with your acquaintance.
5. What is the passage mainly about?
A. New mobile phone technology.

     A lot of us lose life's tough battles by starting a frontal attack-when a touch of humor might well enable
us to win. Consider the case of a young friend of mine, who hit a traffic jam on his way to work shortly
after receiving an ultimatum (最后通牒) about being late on the job. Although there was a good reason for
Sam's being late-serious illness at home-he decided that this by-now-familiar excuse wouldn't work any
longer. His supervisor was probably already pacing up and down preparing a dismissal speech.
     Yes, the boss was. Sam entered the office at 9:35. The place was as quiet as a locker room; everyone
was hard at work. Sam's supervisor came up to him. Suddenly, Sam forced a grin and stretched out his
hand. "How do you do!" he said. "I'm Sam Maynard. I'm applying for a job, which, I understand, became
available just 35 minutes ago. Does the early bird get the worm?"
     The room exploded in laughter. The supervisor clamped off a smile and walked back to his office. Sam
Maynard had saved his job-with the only tool that could win, a laugh.
     Humor is a most effective, yet frequently neglected, means of handling the difficult situations in our lives.
It can be used for patching up differences, apologizing, saying "no", criticizing, getting the other fellow to
do what you want without his losing face. For some jobs, it's the only tool that can succeed. It is a way to
discuss subjects so sensitive that serious dialog may start a quarrel. For example, many believe that comedians
on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerance than people in any other forum.
1. Why was Sam late for his job?
A. Because he was ill.
B. Because he got up late.
C. Because he was caught in a traffic jam.
D. He was busy applying for a new job.
2. The main idea of this passage is ____.
A. Sam Maynard saved his job with humor
B. humor is important in our lives
C. early bird gets the worm
D. humor can solve racial discriminations
3. The phrase "clamped off" in Paragraph 3 means ____.
A. tried to hold back
B. tried to set
C. charged
D. gave out
4. Which of the following statements can we infer from the passage?
A. Many lose life's battles for they are lacking in a sense of humor.
B. It wasn't the first time that Sam came late for his work.
C. Sam was supposed to come to his office at 8:30.
D. Humor is the most effective way of solving problems.
