13、With only fish and birds for company, Eric Erden has been rowing across the Pacific Ocean to Australia in his
23-foot-long boat since he left California on July 10, 2009.
But crossing the Pacific is only part of his incredible journey. Eric has decided to go all the way around the world using only his own energy. He will row, bike, and walk without help from any motors at all. Oh, and his plan includes climbing the tallest peak on six of the continents along the way, to honour the memory of a fellow climber.
He says he is doing this to show kids that they can achieve any goal, but he hopes to have some great adventures along the way.
As a solo traveller, Eric has already faced disappointments and challenges. Because he has to row about ten hours a day, he brought along an MP3 player to listen to music and pass the time. Unfortunately, the nearly daily tropical rain for several months has forced him to keep his player packed away where it's safe and dry.
Storms and huge wave wind regularly force him in the wrong direction and even threaten to overturn his boat. “Sometimes I really feel scared,” says a somewhat embarrassed Eric. “But that’s all part of the journey. I knew this wouldn’t be easy when I started. That's why I gave myself two years to finish.”
Protein bars（蛋白棒）give him energy, and he boils water to heat freeze-dried meals on a one-burner stove. A
solar-powered machine removes salt from ocean water so he can drink it, but only when the sun shines. When that fails he sometimes tries to collect rainwater in buckets.
He’s not bothered by any of the hardships. Eric sees the world as a l aboratory where there is much to learn. And when his trip around the world takes him across land, he enjoys meeting people - especially children. He has already visited several schools and shared his story.
1．Why is Eric making this trip?
A．To encourage children to reach for their goal.
B．To learn more about the world around us.

2．What does Eric plan to do on each of the six continents he will visit?
A．Visit schools to share his story.
B．Study the culture of the local people.

3．When does Eric expect to finish his journey?
A．July 2009. B．June 2010.
C．January 2011. D．July 2011.
4．Which of the follo wing words best describes Eric’s character?
A．Determined. B．Intelligent.

15、Now，everybody is takingselfies. From your best friend to your favourite pop star，selfies are taking over Facebook and Sina Weibo. The word “selfie” was even named Word of the Year by Oxford Dictionaries in 2013. But why do people feel the need to take them? And are they doing us more harm than good?
According to some scientists，humans have an area in their brain that controls social activity. Receiving ‘LIKE’ on a
selfie you have posted online can be the same as someone stopping you in the street and speak highly of you on your appearance.
The act of taking a selfie also puts you in a position of power. You are the director and the subject of your own work of art. It helps people feel in control of their appearance and can be a powerful tool.
But can it go too far? Scientists warn that too much time spent on selfies can influence people’s confidence，especially in teenagers. If you are spending a lot of time choosing the perfect selfie clothes，then there could be a problem.
At the same time，posting selfies online can harm your personal relationships. UK studies found that many people find it hard to talk to people who are often posting selfies online.
So next time you want to use your smartphone(智能手机) to take a quick selfie，it may be better to drop it straight back into your pocket.
1．What doe s the underlined word ‘selfies’ mean?
A．Pictures of yourself，usually taken by yourself.

16、For several years, Americans have enjoyed teleshopping—watching TV and buying things by phone.Now teleshopping is starting in Europe (欧洲).In a number of European countries, people can turn on their TVs and shop for clothes, jewelry, food, toys, and many other things.
Teleshopping is becoming popular in Sweden, for example.The biggest Swedish company sells different kinds of things on TV in 15 European countries, and in one year it made ＄100 million.In France there are two teleshopping channels,

17、Every summer morning, I kno w I am going to my favourite place to volunteer and make a difference in someone’s life just by being with him or her-----a summer school for children with autism(孤独症)。

By helping the kids read or do math, I am not only teaching important skills but also helping them feel like any other kid. There are many wrong ideas about autism. The kids I work with can think and feel. They need help only in certain areas.
Of course, each kid is special. For example, some kids like to draw, and others like to sing.
At the school, the kids learn through about 20 activities. These activities can help them learn skills they will need later in life.
The very first day I volunteered, a boy came up to me, put his hand on my shoulder and said “Hello.” From then on, I knew I could make a difference.
Another boy loved to have me read books that can help him learn to read. Sometimes he could be encouraged to read a few words or sentences. Finally, one day during reading practice, he read nearly 220 words himself!
Summer school is also a time for fun. Last summer, bagpipe(风筝)players came to perform. Most of us had our hands over our ears because they were so loud. When they asked for a volunteer from the audience, one girl raise her hand as high as she could, got up on stage and even tried the bagpipes in front of everyone.
Through these experiences, I realize that the challenges these kids face do not stop them from doing many amazing things. I’m teaching them, but they are teaching me as well.
1．According to Paragraph 2, many people think those kids______________
A．can’t read or do math
B．don’t have important skills
C．don’t play with other kids
D．can’t think or feel
2．The writer believed he could make a difference when______________
A．a boy let him read books
B．a boy greeted him actively
C．a boy could read by himself
D．a girl tried the bagpipes
3．What does the writer mainly talk about in the passage?
A．His teaching experience in a summer holiday
B．How to make a difference in others’ lives
C．His experience as a volunteer in a special summer school
D．What the life of the children with autism is like

19、Mrs. Allyn is so nice to start such a wonderful reading holiday. I think she is doing the right thing. Reading is very
important for us. We can learn a lot from books. From reading, we can know lots of things in the world without going out. Reading also is a good way to improve our listening, speaking and writing skills. Moreover, reading tells us other things —how to be a man and how to tell the difference between right and wrong. So I think it’s good idea that we bring a book back to school every month and share it with others.
My favorite book is Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe. It talks about an interesting story about a brave man who spends 28 years on an island alone. I like this book because it’s interesting and tells me how I can live in an lonely island and what I can do when I am in trouble.。
