B. A Gate at the Stairs

"A Gate at the Stairs" is writer Lorrie Moore's first book in over ten years. It takes place in 2001 shortly after the terrorist attacks on America. It tells about a young girl named Tassie who attends college in the Midwest. She takes a job as a babysitter for a woman and her husband who have adopted a child of mixed race. It is a funny, sad and emotional story about marriage, race, family, terrorism and war.

C. The Magicians and The Magic King

Take one part Harry Potter, another part The Chronicles of Narnia, plus some new parts all the author’s own, season them liberally with adult themes — these are definitely not books for children — and you have this most readable, imaginative pair from author Grossman. Quentin Coldwater passes the entrance exam for Brakebills magic college and learns to master the art thereof, while also learning that “Fillory,” the fantasy world of his favorite book series as a child, is real. But there are demons within and without, and the life of magic and adventure isn’t always a happy one.

D. Bear

Few animals are as closely associated with humans as bears. Tracing the evolution of the bear family, the author discusses extinct types, such as the cave bear and the giant short-faced bear, as well as describing the eight species that exist. It explores the bear-human relationship and how human perceptions of bears have changed over time. Drawing from cultures around the world, it discusses the various legends and myths, including the ceremonies and taboos that surround hunting, killing and eating bears. "Bear" will appeal to all those interested in the past, present and future of these extraordinary creatures.

E. Cutting for Stone

"Cutting for Stone" was written by the medical doctor and writer Abraham Verghese. It is a powerful story about twin brothers born in a Catholic hospital in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Their mother, an Indian nurse at the hospital, dies in childbirth. Their father, a British doctor, flees as soon as they are born. The brothers are raised by two Indian doctors who live at the hospital. One brother later moves to the United States. This is a story about the extremes of love, family, and medicine.

Good hobbies can bring a lot of pleasure to kids and their parents. Hobbies are things that a person likes to do in his spare time. Some kids like swimming or playing sports, while others may like quieter hobbies such as reading, music, cooking, computer games or board games（棋类游戏）. Older kids who can read might enjoy the guitar or the piano, while younger ones might enjoy playing the toy drums and singing along.

Good hobbies for kids can be any type of activity that is beneficial for their over-all growth and has been proven to help them later in life, including self-confidence and any skill that they might learn. When choosing hobbies, parents should remember not to push kids too hard, otherwise they might give up before they really try the hobbies. Also you should give your kids the right to choose hobbies by themselves.

Good hobbies are something that will grow with your kids, stretching （使发挥全部本领）and challenging them enough to keep them interested, but do not take them away from their school work. Instead, good hobbies can help to improve their homework.

The only language that seems to learn is the mother tongue. We still that we all learned our own language well when we were . If we could learn English in the same way, it would not seem very difficult. So what a small child does --- he listens to what people and tries to imitate（模仿）what he hears.

阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空。

Praise can change a person. It is true that 1. (inspire) words turn our lives around. Praise is really magical. Perhaps many of us had such experiences. Take myself 2. an example. I was very naughty in the primary school. Most of the teachers and even my parents felt headache of me. But 3. happened that I once got a very high mark in 4. examination and the head teacher 5. (report) this to my parents. My parents praised me 6. (crazy) for this for quite a long time and told neighbours about that. I felt really happy 7. became polite to others. Every time 8. I heard others talk to me about my excellent examination result, I thought to myself 9. I would work even harder and make 10. (great) progress. Just as Shakespeare said, “Our praises are our wages”.

I know what you’re thinking: pizza? For breakfast? But the truth is that you can have last night’s leftovers in the morning if you want to.

I know lots of women who skip breakfast (不吃早餐), and they have a ton of different excuses for doing it. Some say they don’t have time, others think they’re saving calories, still others just don’t like breakfast food.

But the bottom line is that eating in the morning is very important when you’re trying to lose weight. “Eating just about anything from 300 to 400 calories would be better than nothing at all,” says Katherine Brooking, R.D. , who developed the super-easy eating plan for this year’s “SELF CHALLENGE”. And even pizza can be healthy if it’s loaded with vegetables, and you stick to one small piece.

Breakfast is one meal I never miss, and the same goes for most weight loss success stories. Research shows that eating breakfast keeps you from overeating later in the day. Researchers at the University of Southern California found that breakfast skippers have a bigger chance of gaining weight than those who regularly have a morning meal.

So eat something in the morning, anything. I know plenty of friends who end up having no breakfast altogether, and have just coffee or orange juice. I say, try heating up last night’s leftovers --- it may sound crazy, but if it works for you, do it! I find if I tell myself, “You can always eat it tomorrow,” I put away the leftovers instead of eating more that night. Try it … you may save yourself some pre-bed-time calories. And watch your body gain the fat-burning effects.

1.The word “leftovers” in Paragraph 1 probably means _______.

A. food which is left after a meal

B. things left undone

C. meals made of vegetables

D. pizza topped with fruit

2. What can we infer from the passage?

D. Eating vegetables helps save energy.

3. According to the last paragraph, it is important to _______.

A. eat something for breakfast

B. be careful about what you eat

C. heat up food before eating it

D. eat calorie-controlled food

4.The passage is written mainly for those _______.

A. who go to work early B. who want to lose weight

C. who stay up late D. who eat before sleep

Beach volleyball （沙滩排球）is one of those sports that can be an exciting game to play and watch. It’s really easy, and all you need is sand, a net and a group of people, of any age or fitness level, who want to have fun.

Beach volleyball can be played with as few as two people in each team, making a total of four people. However, if you are less skilled and experienced in the game, it will be easier to play with a larger team. The more players you have, the less ground each person will be responsible for covering and the more time they will have to recover between shots. If you only have a few players, each of you will get a lot of running for the ball after each volley (截球). If you are looking for a relaxing, fun, low-key experience, choose larger teams.

Beach volleyball is similar to regular volleyball in its rules. However, even experienced volleyball players do not realize how much more difficult it is to run and jump on sand. Since it is harder to move quickly on sand than a hard surface, play will be much slower than regular volleyball on a court. When an athlete trains for beach volleyball, he will focus on building lower body strength（力量）as well as upper body strength. Strengthening his legs is extremely important. This improves the player’s ability to move quickly and accurately on sand despite the resistance. The ability to jump high and land without injury is necessary for beach volleyball players.

Whether you are in it for the competition, or just to have a great time with your friends, beach volleyball can be extremely exciting and fun. You may start out with friends and may soon fall in love with the sport.

1.When playing beach volleyball, in which of the following situation will you feel most relaxed?

A. Playing in a 2-person team.

B. Playing in a 4-person team.

C. Playing in a 6-person team.

D. Playing in an 11-person team.

2.We can infer from Paragraph 3 that ______.

A. experienced volleyball players know clearly it is hard to run and jump on sand

B. lower body strength is more important than upper body strength

C. a person must have strong legs if he wants to run and jump quickly on sand

D. the rules of beach volleyball are the same as those of regular volleyball

3.Why is playing beach volleyball much slower than playing regular volleyball?

A. Because it is not easy to move on sand.

B. Because beach volleyball has a larger court.

C. Because the teams of beach volleyball are larger.

D. Because beach volleyball players are not experienced.

4.What does the author think of beach volleyball?

A. It’s a difficult sport.

B. It’s an exciting and interesting sport.

C. It’s a sport which only a few people love.

D. It’s a sport which needs few skills.

5.The passage mainly tell us ______

A. the game of beach volleyball

B. how to become a good beach volleyball player

C. why beach volleyball is one of the exciting sports

D. what should be paid attention to when playing beach volleyball

When a rabbit sees something dangerous, it runs away. Its tail moves up and down as it runs. When other rabbits see this tail moving up and down, they run too. They know that there is danger. The rabbit has told them something without making a sound. It has given them a signal（信号）.

Many other animals use this kind of language. When a bee has found some food, it goes back to its home. It cannot tell the other bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it does a little dance in the air. This tells the bees where the food is.

Some animals say things by making sounds. A dog barks, for instance, when a stranger comes near. A cat purrs （咕噜咕噜） when pleased. Some birds make several different sounds, each with its own meaning.

But human beings have something that no animal has ---a large number of words which have the meanings of things, actions, feelings or ideas. We are able to give each other information, to tell or inform other people what is in our mind or how we feel. By writing words down we can remind （提醒）ourselves of the things that have happened, or send messages to people far away. No animals can do this. No animals have the wonderful power of language.

No one knows how man learned to make words. Somehow he learned to make them. As centuries went by, he made more and more new words. This is what we mean by language.

People living in different countries made different kinds of words. Today there are about fifteen hundred different languages in the world. A very large English dictionary, for example, contains four or five hundred thousand words. But we don not know all these. The words we know are called vocabulary. We should try to make our vocabulary larger. Read as many books as possible. When we meet a new word, look it up in the dictionary. A dictionary is the most useful book.

1.A rabbit moves its tail up and down in order to __________.

A. tell other rabbits where the food is

B. warn other rabbit of danger

C. make itself look strong

D. help itself to run fast

2.A dog can tell something by _________.

A. singing B. dancing C. jumping D. barking

3.Only human beings are able to ______.

A. give others information

B. tell others how they feel

C. express their feelings with words

D. make different sounds, each with its own meaning

4.The underlined word “contain” in Paragraph 6 probably means ______.

A. covers B. checks C. changes D. catches

5.According to the passage, how can we make our vocabulary larger?

A. By talking much to others

B. By learning more languages
