26、 After noticing that her eighth grade students had problems focusing during math class, a North Carolina teacher decided to channel(引导)their energy in a different way-cycling.
It doesn’t sound like the most common thing to do during math class, but Bethany Lambeth, a teacher from Wake County, says that ever since she fixed the cycling machines under her students’ desks, the quality of their work has improved greatly. They are paying more attention to what the teachers say, and most importantly, they are no longer fidgeting all the time.
“Before, they were drumming on their desks or touching other students. They don’t do that any more now. Their feet are getting the movement out,” she said. “There has been a huge increase in the quality of our students’ work and a drop in the amount of missing work. I think the world is changing a lot and kids need to be able to do something different.”
Lambeth fixed the cycling machines at the end of last year, which cost around $150 each. The cost was covered by money from kind people. Not all desks have pedals(踏板)under them, so not all the children have to use one. The school is hoping to get more pedals because of the role cycling machines could play.
The kids clearly love the new “toys”. Sofia Fedele, one of Lambeth’s students, said cycling helped her focus on her work during class. “I usually tap my feet and stuff to keep me focused. I think pedaling is much better. It keeps me exercising and focused,” she said.
Quinn Spear, another student in Lambeth’s class, also mentioned the good effect on health of cycling during class. He told reporters that he had pedaled 5.5 miles and burned 133 calories, all before 10 a.m..
【1】What does the underlined word “fidgeting” in paragraph 2 mean?
A．Showing interest in class.
B．Doing something useful.
C．Keep moving the body.
D．Taking notes carefully.
【2】Who paid for the cycling machines?
A．The school.
B．The students.
C．Some nice people.
D．Some companies.
【3】Why is Quinn Spear mentioned in the last paragraph?
A．To show the kids love the machines.
B．To tell us that he has changed a lot.
C．To prove that he is a nice student.
D．To advise readers to follow his example.
【4】What is the best title of this text?
A．The school helps students concentrate on class.
B．A new way of exercising is becoming popular.
C．How students in a North Carolina school have class.
D．How a machine changes student’s performance in class.
27、When the leaves begin to change their colors and the birds head south, we know the season is starting to change. On September 7 comes White Dew (白露), the 15th solar term (节气) of the year. It indicates (标志着) the beginning of the cool autumn. As the temperature falls, white dew is often seen on the grass and trees at night.
For w riters and poets, autumn is a difficult season to describe. It ’s the end of the summer, and therefore a little sad. The days seem to get shorter, and when you wake in the morning, t here’s mist(薄雾) and it’s cooler. Winter is just around the corner.
American writer Ernest Hemingway wrote in his book A Moveable Feast (《流动的盛宴》), “You expected to be sad in the fall. Part of you died each year when the leaves fell from the trees and their branches (枝条) were bare (光秃秃的) against the wind and the cold, wintry light. ”
But on the other hand, autumn has its good side. There are so many changes at this time of year, such as the colorful leaves and cooler nights. French w riter Albert Camus even thought autumn was a second spring, “when every leaf is a flower.” This view is also found in the most famous autumn poem in English literature, To Autumn by John Keats. In that poem, Keats says that autumn has its own songs, just like spring.
Another theme of this season is wisdom (智慧). The arrival of autumn is thought to be similar to a person becoming mature (成熟的).
The great Irish poet W.B. Yeats used this idea in his poem The Wild Swans at Coole (《库尔的野 天鹅》), writing about the changing seasons in Coole Park in the west of Ireland. Seeing and counting 59 swans, he remembers first making the count as a young man. Seeing the swans do the same thing for all those years, he’s reminded (提醒) that even though we get older, our hearts always stay the same age.
【1】What can be concluded about White Dew ?
A．It is often ignored by w riters and poets.
B．It is the time of year with the most rainfall.
C．It is when the temperature begins to drop.
D．It indicates the end of the autumn.
【2】A Moveable Feast was mentioned to ______.
A．point out that autumn is very cold
B．present the sad part of autumn
C．show that winter w ill soon come
D．express sadness about the end of life
【3】What does “this idea” in the last paragraph refer to?
A．Autumn is an important season for man.
B．We can always stay young at heart.
C．Autumn is related to one’s grow ing old.
D．Nature is full of lessons to be learned.
【4】What’s the article mainly about?
A．The solar term White Dew.
B．Why autumn is a sad season.
C．Autumn weather and activities.
D．Famous writers’ description of autumn.
28、Interesting Space Facts
As time goes by, technological advancements have made us learn more facts about space in the past century than in all time before that. We’ve already searched the universe for the most amazing space facts, including facts about the planets in our solar system, moons, the Milky Way and beyond! 【1】
The highest mountain discovered is the Olympus Mons, which is located on Mars. It is 16 miles high, making it nearly 3 times higher than Mount Everest.【2】 That’s the size of Arizona !
The sun weighs about 330,000 times more than Earth.【3】 In fact, the sun is so huge that it contains 99.85% of all mass in our solar system.
Footprints left on the moon won’t disappear as there is no wind. But wait a minute.
【4】 Well, it actually wasn’t blowing. That blowing you see is because of a telescopic horizontal rod (望远镜水平杆) that the astronauts were struggling to remove from the flag’s top.
【5】 This is due to the lack of gravity in space causing the vertebrae (椎骨) to expand a little. However, this extra height is lost when they re-enter the earth’s atmosphere and are affected by the earth’s gravity again.
A．We’re pretty sure they will make you interested!
B．New discoveries will no longer be made in the future.
C．It is so large that it can contain about 1,300,000 Earths!
D．Not only is it tall, but it’s 114,000 square meters as well.
E．All these space facts may not be true at the time of writing.
F．Astronauts can grow about two inches in height when in space.
G．If there’s no wind to blow them away, then why is the flag blowing?
29、Did you know that the color of sports suits can influence(影响) the performance of an athlete? It may sound strange, but a study suggests this might be true.
Two British scientists studied the results of four sports in the 2004 Athens Olympic Games where the athletes had been given either a red or a blue sports suit. They discovered that when there was a big difference in the score, color had no influence on the result. But if it is a close match, the athlete in a red sports suit was more likely to win. Then they looked at the sports suits of the soccer team at the Euro 2004 championship. Again, teams wearing red won more games.
The two scientists got their idea from earlier studies of wild animals. It had been discovered that when a male shows red on its body, it sends a signal(信号) of it power and strength. For example, in many kinds of monkeys, the more the male shows off its red scars(伤疤) the more females it can attract.
Based on (根据) this fact, the British scientists thought that the idea might work for humans, too. According to them, when an athlete sees a competitor in a red sports suit, he gets a feeling that his competitor could be stronger than him. And that kind of feeling may have a bad influence on the player’s performance in the actual game. Although the idea is interesting, most people don’t accept that color signals in the animal world can really be useful to human sports. They think that it is unreasonable to develop an idea based on such a small number of examples. Much more research has to be done to prove(证明) the influence of sports suit colors on the performance of athletes.
【1】What did the scientists find out about the 2004 Athens Olympic Games:
A．Athletes played equally well in four sports.
B．Game results had a big influence on the athletes.
C．Athletes dressed in red scored more in a close match.

【2】What may be the red scars of a male animal suggest?
A．It is quite strong.

D．It has attracted a lot of females.
【3】The underlined part “ that kind of feeling” in Paragraph 4 refers to a feeling of ________.

B．pride
C．danger
D．shame
【4】What is most people’s view on scientists’ idea?

31、Directions: Complete the passage with the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.
Most people assume that life in the rat race is bad for your health.But reversing the traditional gender roles is a stressful 【1】, according to the latest research by American scientists. By giving up their jobs in order to become house husbands, men 【2】their risk of heart attacks by as much as 82%, according to research based on a 10-year study of 2,500 people in Boston, USA.
According to Dr Eaker, the key to the problem is that some man became 【3】 about performing a role not 【4】 assigned to them by society. Men who stay at home tend not to have the same levels of support from fiends and family as women who do the same. Jack O’Sullivan, of the Father’s Direct group, was quoted as saying: “Society expects the main carer to be a woman, and society is 【5】 around that. Daycare is called mother and toddle groups and some men feel 【6】 about belong to those groups.”
Professor Gary Cooper, a psychologist at the University of Manchester, said many men tend to 【7】 the task of caring for a family. He said:“Most men think being a house husband involves putting on a bit of washing , taking the kids to school and then putting their feet up with a cup of coffee. They are crazy. Most men are not used to performing a 【8】of activities at the same time-the kind of multi-tasking which is second 【9】 to most of women.”
It is estimated that men have taken over the main homemaker’s role in one seven homes, as increasing numbers of women become the main breadwinner. The study also found that women in high-powered jobs were more likely to develop heart disease than those in more 【10】 positions.
