Once an old man rose early to read each morning．His grandson wanted to be just like his grandfather，so tried to emulate him every way he could．
One day the grandson asked，"Grandpa，I try to read just like you do，but I don't understand most of it，and I forget whatever I do understand immediately I close the book．So what good is it for me to read？"
The grandfather，who was putting coal on the fire，said，"Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water．"
The boy did as told to，but the water leaked out before he could get the basket home．The grandfather laughed，saying，"You'll have to move a little faster．"This time he ran faster，but again the basket emptied．Out of breath，he decided it was impossible to carry water in a basket，and he went to get a bucket（桶）．But the grandfather said，"I want a basket of water instead of a bucket of water．You're just not trying hard enough．"
The boy knew what he was trying to accomplish was impossible．However，he decided to show his grandfather a third time．
The boy dipped the basket into the river and ran as hard as he could．With the empty basket，he gasped（喘气说），"See Grandpa？It's useless!" "So you think it useless？"the old man asked．"Then look at the basket．"To his surprise，the boy found it washed clean of the dirty coal stains and now clean inside and out．
"My child，that's what happens when you read the book．You might not understand or remember everything，but the words will change you inside and out．That is the work of reading in our lives．"

Many people ask their friends or doctors: how can I lose weight? And many of them are often told: if you exercise, you will lose weight; ------which is one of the most widely accepted ideas in our culture. As a doctor, I exercise all the time, but I still have got fat that hangs over my belt when I sit. Why isn’t all the exercise getting rid of it?
It’s another question many of us may ask. More than 35 million Americans now belong to a health club, up from 23 million in 1993. We spend some $19 billion a year on gym memberships. Of course, some people join and never go. Still, as one major study — the Minnesota Heart Survey — found, more of us at least say we exercise regularly.
And yet obesity figures have risen sharply in the same period: a third of Americans are obese, and another third count as overweight by the Federal Government’s definition. Yes, it’s entirely possible that those of us who regularly go to the gym would weigh even more if we exercised less. But like many other people, I get hungry after I exercise, so I often eat more on the days I work out than on the days I don’t. Could exercise actually be keeping me from losing weight?
The popular belief that exercise is essential for weight control is actually fairly new. As recently as the 1960s, doctors routinely advised against too much exercise, particularly for older adults who could injure themselves. Today doctors encourage even their oldest patients to exercise, which is sound advice for many reasons: People who regularly exercise are at significantly lower risk for all manner of diseases — those of the heart in particular. They less often develop cancer and many other illnesses. But the past few years of obesity research show that the role of exercise in weight loss has been wildly over-evaluated.
“In general, for weight loss, exercise is pretty useless,” says Eric Ravussin, exercise researcher at Louisiana State University. Many recent studies have found that exercise isn’t as important in helping people lose weight as you hear so regularly in gym advertisements or on shows like The Biggest Loser — or from magazines like this one.
12.Which title is the most suitable one for this article? ______
A. Overweight Is Not Good for You
B. Exercise Won’t Make You Thin
C. Gym Is Part of American Lifestyle
D. A Health Problem in America
13.Which statement is correct? ______
A. Some Americans join a health club but never take exercise there
B. The number of overweight people has doubled since 1993 in US
C. More than 35 million Americans now go to the gym regularly
D. Most Americans waste too much money each year on sports
14.From the passage, we know that exercise ____.
A. has long been believed to be good for older adults
B. is not properly advertised as a way to lose weight
C. was never recognized as an effective way to lose weight
D. is not useful at all
15.According to the passage, why do people gain weight? ______
A. Because they have the habit of going to the gym regularly
B. Because they eat the same food when they do not exercise
C. Because they exercise less than required by doctors
D. Because they eat more after they exercise
16.What can be inferred from the passage? ______
A. Most Americans are overweight.
B. Very few people in America are overweight.
C. The author takes exercise all the time so he is very slim now.
D. The author takes exercise all the time but it doesn’t make him lose weight

Home schooling nowadays becomes more popular. Home schooling is the education of children taught at home, typically by parents but sometimes by tutors, rather than in a formal setting of public or private school. The advantages of home schooling are plentiful, including the ability to create a positive learning environment without the danger and distractions of public school. What’s more, parents could stay with their children together for more time. However, home schooling also has disadvantages.
First, home schooling may lead to students less communication with others. As we all know, the students who learn in public schools may find a lot of friends. When they meet difficulties, they can get help from others. But as for the students studying at home, the only persons they meet are their parents or tutors. It is certainly true that the children will have less interaction with their peers than those who attend public school on a regular basis.
Second, home schooling may make children not know how to cooperate with others. Children who learn at home always stay with their parents or tutors. When they meet difficulties, they are always turning to and depending on their parents. But the children in public schools may know how to solve the problem with their friends.
What’s more, home schooling may cost much more money than public school. If the parents want to take on the responsibility of educating their children themselves, it’s up to them to finance the entire experience. Learning materials, computer software and books that are otherwise paid for by the public school are needed, in addition to the regular school supplies all parents must purchase for their children. Considering that the parent doing the home schooling is unlikely to manage a full-time job on the side, these expenses are tough for some families to meet.
17.What is one of the benefits of home education?
A. It creates a more negative learning environment.
B. Parents can stay with their kids for more time.
C. Children have more social abilities.
D. It has much lower cost.
18.What would happen in the style of home schooling?
A. One will have less peer pressure.
B. One will have an easier way to make friends.
C. One will have little cooperation with others.
D. One will learn more knowledge than in public or private school.
19.What is the main idea of the passage?
A. America’s home schooling.
B. The advantage of home schooling.
C. The disadvantages of home schooling.
D. Differences between school education and home education.
20.What is the author’s attitude to home schooling?
A. positive
B. negative
C. neutral
D. indifferent
