13、Sports, drama, and all kinds of organizations keep students busy during high school. Where do they get the money to do these things? Not everyone gets it from parents. Most have to work for at least some of the money to pay for these activities. Some adults question if high school students should have jobs. I say yes, they undoubtedly should.
Some people worry that teens with after-school jobs will have difficulty finding time for schoolwork. Actually, having a job helps teens make better use of their time. Many jobs take only a couple of hours on weeknights. According to an article, 86 percent of high school students have an after-school, weekend or summer job and students who work between 10 and 20 hours per week during the school year get higher grades than those who do not work at all. Instead of considering working after school ahindrance, it should be looked at as real-world education.
Other people think that work adds too much stress（压力）, which may be somewhat true, but whether having a job or not, there is always stress. Better to learn how to deal with busy schedules（日程表）in a controlled environment like high school than to be out on your own and alone in the future, experiencing stress for the first time. I personally would be worried about the teenager who has to become independent without having any experience of working.
The biggest reason teens should work is that it is a healthy way of making money. There are many things teens need to pay for and they cannot do it if they don’t have a job. Not all parents can pay for these activities. My dad told me, “Having a job is a good way to save up for things you are going to need or want to do. You get a lot more out of things if you pay for them yourself.” The sooner kids make money, the sooner they can learn how to use money wisely. If they are not allowed to work in high school, they may have a hard time in the future. Teens should, without a doubt, be allowed to work on school nights.
1．The word“hindrance” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_______”.
A．something that encourages teens to study
B．something that helps teens improve study
C．something that prevents teens from studying
D．something that makes teens lose interest in study
2．What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A．Teens are too busy with study to work at high school.
B．Teens experience stress for the first time at high school.
C．Teens are worried about being independent in the future.
D．Teens who work will deal with stress better in the future.
3．Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．Working makes teens get lower grades.
B．Working teaches teens to spend money more wisely.
C．Working helps teens to get on better with their parents.
D．Working stops teens from taking part in after-school activities.
4．What does the passage mainly talk about?
A．What money means to teens.
B．Why teens should work after school.
C．Whether parents should help teens find jobs.
D．How teens get money for after-school activities.
B
14、Black Spider（蜘蛛）was having trouble catching bugs（臭虫）in his web, while Grey Spider caught two bugs in his.

15、Don’t you just hate it when you have to take an important phone call and you’re finding somebody is listening to you? You either have to keep your voice down or go outside to keep the conversation private, which is not exactly ideal(理想的). Now, a new product can help you.
Hushme is a high-tech mark(口罩) that can block the sound of the wearer’s voice so that people nearby can’t hear what is being said. It connects to your phone with Bluetooth and comes with a pair of earphones. When you get a private call, all you have to do is to put the mask on and it will do the rest.
The Hushme mask, which has different kinds of colors, can be worn around the n eck, and in front of your mouth. It’s
not yet clear how comfortable speaking with this Bane-like mask over your mouth really is, or how well it works. We know so far is that it makes you look strange.
The sound choices for covering your voice currently include wind, ocean, rain, birds, monkey, squirrel(松鼠), R2D2, laughing Minion6 and Darth Vader breath. And new ones could be added in the future.
You could also always use Hushme to protect your ears from loud noise from the co-workers at the office. Just put this small product over their mouths and you can get on with your work.

16、April 22 is Earth Day. Everyone on earth should care about and protect the earth!
The earth has warmed by about l℉(华氏度) over the past 100 years, but why and how? Well, scientists are not quite sure. Maybe the earth gets warmer and warmer on its own. But many scientists say that people are doing many things which makes the earth warmer.
First, greenhouse effect (温室效应) is a very important reason for the change of the earth. People give out too much energy into the air every year. It makes the earth warmer. Climate (气候) change is another important reason. Sometimes it becomes too hot and sometimes too cold. Sometimes there is too much rain and sometimes too little. The change of the climate makes the earth warmer. In turn, the warmth of the earth changes the climate, too.
When the earth becomes warmer, there may be more rain and a rise in sea level. It will affect the growth of plants, animals and people. On a Pacific island, 100 people have to move to higher ground because the sea is rising. These people can no longer live on the coast. Before that, two islands without people went underwater in 1999. Scientists say that the seas can rise by nearly one metre by 2100.
People can affect the earth’s air, land and water. As for us, we can do many things to protect the earth. For example, we can use fridges less. We can tell more people about protecting the earth.
1．Earth Day is probably set for people to ________ .
A．learn more about the earth B．make full use of the earth
C．take better care of the earth D．study the warmth of the earth
2．We can infer(推断)from the passage that the reason for the warmer earth are ______ now.
A．not very clear B．completely secret C．well known D．not given yet

C．nature’s unbalance D．pe ople’s activity
4．According to the passage, _________ may affect each other.
A．animals and islands B．climate and the warmth of the earth
C．fridges and animals D．sea level and the growth of plants

17、A boy called Mike had many friends, and he was proud of it. Whoever he met, he would like to show off how popular he was at school.
One day, his grandpa said to him, “Mike, I know that you don’t have as many friends as you think. Many of them are not true to you.”
Mike thought maybe his grandpa was right. Howe ver, he wasn’t sure how he could test whether his schoolmates were real friends or not, so he asked his grandpa. The old man answered, “I have just exactly what you need. It’s in my room. Wait a minute.” The old man left, soon returning as if(好像) carrying something in his hand, but Mike could see nothing there.
“Take it. It’s a very special chair. Because it’s invisible, it will be hard for you to sit on it. However, if you manage to sit on it, you can use the chair’s magic power to tell who your real friends are.”
Mike took the strange invisible chair to school. At break time he asked everyone to form a circle, and he put himself in the middle, with his chair.
“Nobody moves. Y ou’re about to see something amazing,” said Mike. Then he tried sitting on the cha ir. Having difficulty seeing it, he missed and fell to the ground. Everyone had a pretty good laugh. “Wait, wait,” said Mike, making another try. But again he missed the chair.
Mike didn’t give up. He kept trying to sit on the magic chair. Finally, he did it. This time he felt himself in mid-air. Then he experienced the magic that his grandpa had been talking about. Looking around, Mike saw George, Lucas and Diana holding him up, so he wouldn’t fall. But some schoolmates whom he had regarded as friends had done nothing but made fun of him.

19、Ms. Michelle Obama, the First Lady of the US, visited The Second High School Attached to Beijing Normal University on March, 2014. To our surprise, quite a lot of e-pals began to argue with each other about the school uniforms they were wearing.
Some e-pals agree to wear uniforms at school. First, school uniforms are good for students to take part in different activities, especially sports. Second, school uniforms are cheaper, and they can save our parents’ money a lot. The most important thing is that students don’t have to waste time to think what they should wear every day. It is good for their study.
But some e-pals say that their school uniforms are too ugly. They have simple colors, and they are always too big for students.
In my opinion, I agree to wear school uniforms at school. But we should improve the quality of the school uniforms. Only in this way would more and more students like to wear school uniforms at school in the future.。
