Jogging(慢跑) is good for us and helps us live longer and healthier lives. It’s easy to do and free. You do not have to spend money on jogging. You can do it in a park or even in your home. But many people find it boring after jogging for a while. So how can we keep jogging fun? Here are some ideas to make your jogging more interesting.
First, you should choose to wear your favourite sports clothes and shoes when you jog. They make you more comfortable and more likely to run.
Second, always jog outdoors(户外). By changing your route and choosing another street, you will always have something interesting to enjoy when you jog.
Third, take along your MP3 player and listen to your favourite songs when you jog. The music can make you excited and run farther without feeling bored.
Finally, it’s always more enjoyable with a friend. Make friends while jogging. Join a running club, find a new running partner, or invite an old friend to go jogging. It’s better to find a friend who runs a little faster than you. Then you can try to catch up with him or her.

Usually before an earthquake happens, people don’t know it is on the way. And these earthquakes are very dangerous. In fact, earthquakes kill more people than snowstorms and rainstorms every year. So scientists are always looking for ways to predict earthquakes.
Now they can predict the earthquake, but it is not always right every time. And scientists can say that an earthquake is possible to happen in some place, but they can’t predict the right place or time. And they cannot tell how strong the earthquake will be. How do scientists make these guesses?
First, scientists make sure which place the big earthquake will strike by studying the earth plates(板块).
Second, to help predict earthquakes, scientists study the history of the areas where earthquakes happened. Studying the history can also help in another way. Scientists can guess how often an earthquake may happen in this area.
Last, scientists watch rocks under the surface for months. When rocks break, earthquakes happen. And scientists also watch the water level to predict an earthquake.
Scientists hope that one day we can have earthquake warnings.
()63.kill(s) more people every year.
A.Snowstorms
B.Rainstorms
C.The bird flu
D.Earthquakes
()64.The underlined word “predict” means “” in Chinese.
A.降低
B.预测
C.防止
D.制止
()65.Which of the following is NOT true?
A.Studying the history of areas can help scientists to predict the earthquake.
B.Scientists can know earthquake by watching the rocks on the earth.
C.Scientists can predict an earthquake by watching the water level.
D.Now sometimes scientists can’t tell people the right information about the earthquakes.
D
The population of the earth is growing faster. It is important for us to look after the earth.
The earth gives us a lot of things. We also give the earth a lot, but some of the things are not good.
In nature, when something dies, other animals and plants get food from it. Every animal or plant gives food for other animals or plants. However, animals can’t get food from many of the things that we “give” the earth. Animals and plants can’t eat metal, plastic and glass. These things will stay in the ground for many, many years.
Some rubbish is very dangerous for plants and animals. In some places, many animals live together. One animal makes food for more animals. If we put rubbish and chemicals in the water, the plankton(浮游生物) will die. If there isn’t any plankton, many animals have nothing to eat.
So what can we do? Don’t leave any rubbish in the countryside! Don’t make so much rubbish!
()66.The earth gives us .
A.food
B.rubbish
C.chemicals
D.pollution
()67.When something dies in nature, .
A.water and grass are polluted
B.plastic and wood become food
C.other animals and plants get food
D.metal and glass stay in the ground
()68.We must to look after the earth.

CCTV reported that every year Chinese people throw away a lot of food which can feed 200 million people for a year.
Do we have too much food? Of course not. According to the UN World Food Programme, there were about 900 million hungry people all over the world in 2013. About six million children die of hunger every year.
So think about it. We should say no to people who waste food every day. As an old saying goes, “Every grain on the plate comes from hard work.” It tells us everybody must save food.
Luckily, a number of people have realised the importance of saving food. Li Hong, a waitress in a restaurant in Jiangsu, once lost her job because she took some leftovers(吃剩的食物) home for her son. But many people were by her side and criticised(批评) the waste of food.
And we can do many things to prevent it from happening. Here are some tips:
Don’t order too much food in a restaurant. Only order as much as you can eat. If you can’t eat all the food you order, take the rest of it home.
Don’t be too picky(挑剔的) about food. Some food may not be tasty, but our body needs it.
Don’t keep too much food at home, especially fruit and vegetables.
73.How many hungry people were there all over the world in 2013?(不超过5个词)
74.Why did Li Hong lose her job?(不超过10个词)
75.What should you do if you can’t eat all the food you order?(不超过10个词)

There were always too many new words to memorise. I found it difficult to learn English well. I got a bad grade in the midterm exam. I was sad. My English teacher had a talk with me after the exam. She gave me some good advice. From then on, I worked harder at English. I spent some time doing pronunciation exercises every day. I often read English aloud. I got a good grade in the final exam and I was thankful to my English teacher.

Dear Jim,
I’m glad to hear that you will go to Korea. There are many special customs in Korea. When you meet a person for the first time, you should bow to him and say hello. Then you will change business cards with each other. Read the card carefully and then put it in the pocket. When you take the subway, you’d better not speak. When you want to visit somebody, you should tell him or
her about it in advance and take presents. I hope you can have a good time.
Yours,
Tony。
