(本大题共13小题,每小题2分,共26分)
A
Do you often ride a bike to school? Here’s some advice for you.
Try not to use busy roads. In some cities there are special paths for bikes only. Use them when you can, but watch out —people often walk along them. Check the road before starting and look all around. Also, when you’re with friends on bikes, it’s much safer to ride behind, not next to, each other. Where one road meets another, you should take even more care. Slow down and check both roads. Use your eyes and be careful.
Check your bike often. Do all the parts work properly? Is there enough air in your tyres (轮
胎)?
If you have an accident or fall off your bike, a helmet will protect your head. It must be the right size, so ask for help when you buy it.
You must use lights at night, so keep them clean and check the batteries. Don’t wear dark colours; yellow and white are the easiest colours for drivers to see.
A bike isn’t a toy and there should be only one person on it. Many children have accidents
when they play silly games on their bikes.
Red traffic lights aren’t only for cars and buses. They’re for you too if you’re on a bike. You’re also breaking the law if you go the wrong way up a one -way street.
( )25-27. Please choose best title for each blank.
A. CAN THEY SEE YOU?
B. LOOK AFTER YOUR BIKE.
C. BE READY FOR PROBLEMS.
D. DON’T BREAK THE LAW.
B

She took him outside and showed him the notice “It is wrong, too,” she said. “Where is the question mark after the world ‘think’?”
“There isn’t a question mark,” he said. “But there should b e one.”
“I’m afraid you’ve made a mistake,” Mr. Jones said “You have read my notice in the wrong way.”
“Not at all,” said the woman. “It’ s quite easy to read. It says: What do you think? I give away pencils and paper and ink!”
“No,” Mr. Jones said. “You should read it like this: 32 And the answer to the question is: Certainly not! So you really have to pay me thirty cents, you see.”

to use their hands …like showing the waves. That’s how the hula started.”
However, not everyone has always liked the hula. In 1820, some religious(宗教的) people from Western countries came to Hawaii. The visitors were shocked by the hula because the dancers were not wearing many clothes. So they asked the local government to ban(禁止) the dance.
After that, most Hawaiians were not allowed to perform the hula in public for almost 60 years. But that did not mean the dancing stopped. Many dancers still performed the hula in secret. The dance was always there.
Things have changed. At the moment, people of all ages want to study the old culture. They want to learn how to dance the hula. As a result, more and more people are attending halaus. Halaus are special schools that teach the hula in the traditional way.
Kumano is a hula teacher. For him, the dance is a way to bring the best of old Hawaiian culture to people today. Kumano says that the dance is not really about the body. He feels that it is more about the mind. He explains his feelings, “…the hula is more… not so much a physical thing, but more of a mental thing. For new dances, the dancing means very little, because for Hawaiians today, many of them don’t speak the Hawaiian language. So, what I try to do is to mind the real thing they see today.”
