Firemen cleared the area around the cathedral, which marks the very centre of the city. France 2 Television reported that the police regarded this event as an accident. People in Paris also think so.

The cathedral, which dates back to the 12th century, plays an important role in Victor Hugo’s (维克多·雨果) classic The Hunch back of Notre Dame. Millions of tourists go there every year. The sudden fire lasted nearly 10 hours. It had much to lose. Paris cried and the world was shocked.

22、What subject do you worry about the most at school? Many students worry about math. Some students can’t sleep well the day before a math exam. Others may feel very nervous during the exam itself. But there might be a way to make the subject less stressful.

“For people who are worried about math, posture makes a big difference,” Erik Paper from San Francisco State University told the Daily Mail. That’s right-sitting up straight can help you do better on math exams.

Scientists tested 125 college students. They asked them to do a simple math exam while sitting in a slumped over (趴倒的) posture or sitting up straight. After the test, 56 percent of students said the exam was easier to do if they were sitting up straight.

“Slumping over is a defensive posture. It can bring about bad memories in the body and brain. This can stop you from thinking clearly,” Paper said.

“Students who were not nervous about taking the math exam did not necessarily benefit from better posture. But they did find that doing math while slumped over was more difficult,” ScienceDaily reported.

Good posture isn’t just helpful for taking math exams. Sportspeople, musicians and public speakers can all benefit from better posture. When you feel stressed out, you can also try to sit up straight or stand tall. It can help you feel more certain and focus better.

【1】What posture can make people feel less stressed during math exams?

A．Sitting up straight.

B．Hanging your head.

C．Lying on your back.

D．Raising one hand.

【2】What did the scientists ask the college students to do during the test?

A．To do sit-ups.

B．To count numbers.

C．To think carefully.

D．To sit in different postures.

【3】What does the underlined word “defensive” mean?

A．Protective.

B．Safe.

C．Primary

D．Fighting.

【4】The fourth paragraph is written to explain ________.

A．why slumping over makes exams harder to do

B．why slumping over is bad for one’s health

C．why some people slump over during exams

D．why people are nervous during math exams

【5】Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

C．Benefit from good posture.

D．Good Advice for Better Exams

23、任务型阅读，每空一词。

In the United States, each farm family lives on its own fields, and often can’t see any people living around. Instead of travelling from a village to the fields every morning, American farmers stay on their land all the week. They travel to the nearest town on Saturdays for shopping or on Sundays for church. The children ride on buses to large schools which serve all of the farm families living in the area. In some areas, there are not big schools serving a few families, and the children walk to school. Of course life keeps changing for everyone, including farmers. Today there are cars, good roads, radios, and television set. And of course there are modern machines for farming. All of these have changed farm life. For many years, farmers had to deal with their own problems, instead of getting help from others. They learned to try new methods (方法) and to believe their own ideas instead of following old ways.

24、根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词。

Nowadays more and more Chinese teenagers find life more difficult without their parents. They don't know h【1】 to do housework. Because their parents do almost e【2】 for them at home. This is a big problem.

Joy is 14 years old. One day her parents went a 【3】 for business，so she had to stay at home alone. At first she thought she would be happy b【4】 her parents were not in. She could do w【5】 she liked. But it was six o'clock in the afternoon, and she felt hungry. “Oh, it's time to have supper. Where can I get my f【6】？” she said to herself. Later she found some food in the fridge，but she didn't know how to c【7】. At that moment, she missed her parents very much. At last she could only go to the supermarket and b【8】 some food to eat.

Many teenagers are the same as Joy. So I think they should learn some basic life skills, l【9】 cooking, tidying up their rooms or dressing t【10】. They shouldn't depend too much on their parents.
