21、Last Friday, I agreed to meet some friends at 6:00 p.m. in a coffee shop. The weather was sunny, so I decided to walk there. I arrived ten minutes early. I ordered a cup of coffee and sat watching people. There were some boys playing football on the street, and a small boy was running after the ball as it rolled (滚) across the road.

22、What are your clothes made of? Are they made of cotton or wool? Some students in Shandong wear different things. Their clothes are made of discs(光盘) or old clothes!

On October 7th, 36 students in Linyi, Shandong Province, wore beautiful clothes in a show. Their clothes were made of all kinds of things.

The show gave the students a chance to make things with their own hands. It also helped them learn to make good use of waste and not to throw everything away.

23、Maybe you should sit down before you read this. It’s a little frightening. Your sitting maybe killing you.

Health experts say the US adult now sits about 6.5 hours a day. That is up about an hour a day compared to 2007. The news is even worse for teens. They sit eight hours each day. The information was put out by the National Center for Health Statistics. It has collected the numbers for the past 16 years. It is worried about what it has found.

Research shows that people who are not active can get sick. Their bones get weaker. They burn fewer calories (卡路里). That makes them more likely to put on too much weight. They might even get diabetes (糖尿病). They are at risk for high blood pressure and heart problems, too.

Some experts also think sitting too much can influence how your blood moves through your body and how well your body fights off illness. Being active helps in lots of ways. It can make you happier, burn more calories and give you more energy. It can also help you sleep better.

About 60% of people in the US watch at least two hours of TV each day. That number has stayed about the same in recent years.

Computers are the biggest reason for more hours spent sitting. Computer use outside of work or school has gone up for all age groups. Now, 50% of adults spend at least an hour of their free time on a computer each day. That is up from 29% in 2003.

About 53% of teens now spend at least an hour of free time on computers. So do 56% of kids. As many as 1 in 4 people who use computers use three hours or more outside of work and school.

So get up, take some breaks and go outside. You might save your life by doing outdoor activities.

A．their body shape

B．their home comforts

C．their health

C．get sick

D．treat heart problems

【3】What is the text mainly about?

A．Computers are causing health problems.

B．Too much sitting is influencing our health.

C．Being more active is good for you and me.

D．Sitting means killing.

【4】Which one of the following is most probably to be discussed next?

A．The cause of diabetes.

B．Some outdoor activities.

C．The examples of losing weight successfully.

D．The disadvantages of playing computer games.

24、Self-driving cars are believed to be the future of driving. Companies including Toyota, Uber and Google are all competing to be the first to bring them to market.

However, car makers need to solve one problem first: How driverless cars communicate with passers-by, bikers and other drivers. Most drivers today use gestures to show their purposes. They wave a car into a lane(车道), or nod at passers-by and cyclists, to let them cross the street. But self-driving cars don’t have this ability. What can they do? US carmaker Ford and its partner Virginia Tech think they have the answer, reported Business Insider. The team is testing a method that uses light signals to show what self-driving cars are doing. For example, if a driverless car is yielding, it could flash two white lights side to side. A solid white light tells there are no humans in the car. A slow blinking light shows the car is coming to a stop. A rapidly flashing light tells passers-by that the car is about to speed up. To test the method on real roads, the team designed a special suit that looks exactly like a car seat. When a driver wears it, it appears to people that the car is really driverless. The team then successfully got more than 1,500 hours of data after about 2,900 kilometres of “self-driving” through busy cities. The data recorded how people interacted with a driverless vehicle. Ford says they plan to share the data with 11 other companies, reported dogonews. com. The company wants to work with other carmakers to design a signaling system that would be understood by all.

【1】What are considered to be the future of driving?

A．Flying cars.

B．Driverless cars.

C．Energy-saving cars.

D．Electric cars.

【2】What’s the problem of driverless cars?

A．Communicating with people.

B．Not having enough seatbelts.

C．Driving into a lane.

D．Crossing a street.

【3】What does the underlined word “yielding” refer to?

A．加速

B．减速

C．让路

D．超车

【4】According to Ford and Virginia Tech, how might the problem be solved?

A．Flashing light signals.

B．Sending information to smartphones.

C．Designing special suits for drivers.

D．Only driving in small cities.

【5】Which of the following shows the car will speed up?

A．A solid white light.

B．A slow blinking light.

C．A fast flashing light.

D．No lights.

25、   Most children are introduced to a study of history early in their school life by hearing stories of people who lived in other times and places. They learn that the world has not always been e【1】 as it is today. Later in the elementary grades a more formal study of this subject may include local history, n【2】 history, world history, and contemporary history (现代史) or current events. Most schools in the United States r【3】 pupils to take one year of United States history in grade 7 or 8, and a【4】 year in grade 11 or 12. Other history courses, such as ancient history and English history, are sometimes offered as selective course.

Various m【5】 are used to add to the information given in the regular history books used in a course. Students may increase their knowledge of history by watching filmstrips, picture slides, and films. The class may take a field trip to some historical places, visit a museum or an art gallery, or p【6】 a play that dramatizes (将……搬上舞台) a historical event. Other interesting p【7】 include making collections of coins, stamps, or objects from a particular period or country, making scrapbooks (剪贴簿), and constructing models of buildings or historical scenes. Older children especially enjoy reading historical novels that describe vividly a period in the past.
