A
Some places in the world have strange laws. It’s important f or you to know about them before going there.
Whoever likes to chew gum (口香
糖) may have to leave Singapore. The government really want s to keep the city clean and will fine you for chewing gum.
Before you leave for the United Arab Emirates you’d better m ake sure you aren’t visiting during Ramadan (斋
月). During that time you aren’t allowed to eat or drink in publi c. Tourists have been fined up to $275 for drinking in public. Lovers spend so much time kissing each other goodbye at tr ain stations that trains often start late. This law—
no kissing your lover goodbye at train stations---
is rather old, and isn’t in use today in France.
In Thailand it’s against the law to drive a car or motorcycle wi
thout a shirt on, no matter how hot it is. Punishments are diffe rent in different areas and can include warnings and tickets co sting about $10. No joke—the local police will stop you.
Studies in Denmark have shown that cars with their headlight s on are more noticeable by other driv
ers than those with their headlights off. Drivers there are requi red to leave their headlights on even during the day, or they m ay face a fine up to $100.
Do you often buy things using coins? Don’t do it in Canada. T he Currency Law of 1985 doesn’t allow using only coins to bu y things. Even the use of the dollar-
coin is limited. The shop owner has the right to choose wheth er to take your coins or not.
Make sure you know about these laws before your next trip. B etter safe than sorry.
21.What is mainly talked about in the text?
A.How to make your trip around the world safe.
B.Some strange laws you should know about for your trip. C.Interesting places you can go to around the world. D.Why there are strange laws in the world.

“I have cancer.” Mom said and held me in a tight hug. I could f eel her chest shaking as she tried not to cry but failed.
For all of my twenty-
four years, my mom had been supportive. Strength and prote ction had always flowed from her to me. Now I knew it would have to flow the other way.
Mom didn’t stay down for long. After the shock of breast-cancer, she armed herself with a notebook and a pen and a th ousand questions for the doctors. She took notes on white blo od cell counts and medications(药
物) with long names as though she were studying for entrance exams into medical school. “The not-
knowing is the worst.” she said.
The operation was successful. The chemo(化
疗) was the harder part. I went with Mom to every chemo treat ment. She rarely complained, though her hair was gone and h er toenails and fingernails fell out one by one. She joked that she could save money on nail polish and put it toward the doc tor bills, even though she never wore nail polish. “Cancer can take my hair, my nails, my health, my very life. But it can’t tak e my smile.” Mom said.
Mom learned to share her fears with me, and it formed an eve n deeper bond between us. Yet I am certain there were fears she didn’t share because she was still protecting me—worries she only shared with Dad. Even in the darkest hours, she would just joke about the cancer. Mom always said, “Whe n you look your greatest fear in the eye and laugh at it, you ta ke away some of its power.”
Mom was one of the lucky ones. She did beat her cancer, tho ugh not without scars. From her, I’ve learned I may not get to choose what I face, but I do get to choose how I face it.
What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?
There were other ways to treat cancer.
Knowledge of cancer would be helpful.
C.Mom had to stay stronger to beat cancer.
D.I should be the one being there for Mom.
25.Which of the following words can best describe Mom? A.Humorous and generous. B .Considerate and ambitious.
C.Optimistic and determined. D.Caring and knowledgeable.
26.What is the fifth paragraph mainly about?
A.The fear Mom shared with me. B.T he ways Mom faced fear.
C.The jokes Mom told me. D .The bond Mom and I formed.
27.What lesson did the author learn from Mom?
A.Luck counts in beating diseases. B.Compl aint does no good to one’s health.
C.Positive attitudes get one through hardships. D.Sharing feelings helps reduce sufferings a lot.
C
Imagine you’re at the supermarket checkout. You pay the cas hier, load your food into the cart, then take one third of your n
ewly purchased items outside and throw them into the trash. This may sound unbelievable, but millions of us worldwide do this regularly, although in a more non-direct way.
In the West, most of this food is thrown away by businesse s that are unable to sell it, or by consumers who buy too much . And the majority of this food, despite being past its shelf life, is still perfectly fit for human consumption. So where do these excess products end up?
“We receive food from various sources, including food banks, restaurants, cafes, food photographers, and events” says Ada m Smith, founder of The Real Junk Food Project. The British company recently made headlines in the UK after it became t he country’s first “food waste supermarket”, offering products t hat would otherwise have ended up in waste. Most of its custo mers are low-
income families, or even college students who find it difficult t o afford food.“We ask our customers to pay what they feel in ti me, money or skills. We do have people coming with the inten tion of paying and if it carries on like it does, it will pay for the cost of the warehouse,” Smith explains.
Some shops across Europe are also taking action. France rec ently passed a law that says all supermarkets must now donat e all of their unsold produce to charities, while the Italian gove
rnment has also put similar measures in place. Hundreds of c afes that serve meals made from surplus food have been set up across the continent too, selling dishes at bottom prices or even giving them away for free.
So what can we do to prevent our dinner ending up in the bin ? “Buy less. Or at least shop smarter,” said Smith. After all, th e best place for food is in our stomachs, not the trash. What’s the meaning of the underlined “being past its shelf life” in Paragraph 2?
A. Being past its “sell-
by” date. B. Being far from enough. C. Being past the length of being eatable. D. Be ing out of date.
29. What do we know about The Real Junk Food Project?
A. It gets food from the waste.
B. It wan ts to make a fat profit.
C. It drew massive attention lately.
D. It s main aim is to do charities.
30. What can we learn from Paragraph 4?
A. Some countries in Europe are actively helping poor people.
B. Some countries in Europe are trying to address food waste
.
C. Related shops in Europe are willing to give away their food .
D. All the countries in Europe have made laws to handle food waste.
31. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Turning Trash into Treats
B. Buy ing Less and Smarter
C. Food Trash Industry
D. War n against Food Waste
D
When a storm is coming, most people leave the area as quick ly as possible and head for safety. But there are a few people who will get into cars and go straight for the center of the stor m. These people are willing to risk being killed by floods or 10 0-kilometer-an-
hour winds for the excitement of watching the storm close up.“Storm chasing(追
逐)” is becoming an increasingly popular hobby, especially in t he Midwest of the United States, where there are frequent sto rms between March and July. A storm chaser begins the day by checking the Internet for the latest weather reports, and th
en drives up to 1,000 kilometers to where the storm will be an d waits for it to develop.
Although anyone can do it, storm chasing is extremely danger ous. The power of a big storm can throw a cow into the air or destroy a whole house in seconds. Storm chasers are also oft en hurt in accidents caused by driving in a heavy rain. If you a re a beginner, it is much safer to join a group for storm-chasing vacations during the storm seasons.
Even then, storm chasing is not all adventure and excitement.“Storm chasing is 95% driving,” says Daniel Lynch, who spen ds most of his summer storm-
chasing. “Sometimes you can sit around for hours waiting for something to happen, and all you get is blue sky and a few lig ht showers.”
However, for storm chasers, it is all worth it. “When you get cl ose to a storm, it is the most exciting sight you will ever see in your life,” says Jasper Morley. “Every storm is an example of the power of nature. It is the greatest show on Earth.”
32. For storm chasing, the first thing storm chasers do is to __ __.
A.get quickly into their cars for safety B.wait patie ntly for the storm to develop
C.head straight for the center of the storm D.collect
information about a coming storm
33. Beginners of storm chasing are advised ____.
A.to do it in an organized way B.to spend much more time on it
C.not to get too close to a storm D.not to drive in a heavy rain
34. By saying “it is all worth it” in the last paragraph, the autho r means that ___.
A.storm chasing costs a lot of money B.efforts in storm chasing are well paid
C.storm chasing is worth hours of waiting D.a stor m presents the greatest show on Earth
35. What can we learn from the text?
A.Storm chasing is only fit for young people.
B.Some storm chasers were killed during the storms. C.Storm chasing is becoming popular around the world. D.Sometimes storm chasers get nothing but disappointment .

Benefits of Sports
Taking exercise is a physical, mental and social adventure. It’s a great way for children to take a break from study and relea se extra energy. It also helps them lead fuller and happier live s as regular sports have proven to improve general well-being.
36 Regardless of your fitness level when you start playing s ports, you’ll notice an increase in your overall fitness once you take part. Nearly every sport requires physical activity and th e skills needed to be competitive. Basketball players focus on strength training. 37 The training process helps encourage physical fitness and performances in competitions.
38 Playing sports contributes to mental health, helping to in crease confidence and self-worth. A pat on the back, high-five from a teammate, or handshake after a match really raise s a ch ild’s confidence. Words of praise and encouragement fr om the coach, parents and other players raise the self-worth. 39 So after a game, it’s a better idea to ask “Did you enjoy the game?” rather than “Did you win?”
Children who participate in sports might also benefit from the social aspect, feeling part of a group, building up leadership a nd responsibility. 40 Teamwork demands both being depen dable as a teammate and learning to rely on your teammates
to achieve a positive outcome. Teamwork will raise your resp onsibility and give you an opportunity to be a leader.
There is no shortage of reasons to find a sport to take part in. Are you ready to go? Pick one and get moving!
A. It’s not just your body that benefits from sports.
B. Therefore, playing sports is going to make you more fit.
C. Football players work on speed while track athletes train th rough longer runs.
D. Among these, learning how to work as a team is the most i mportant advantage.
E. But remember, a child’s self-
worth should not be judged by victory or loss.
F. If you play group sports, you’ll be part of a team that takes direction from a coach.
G. The physical benefits of doing sports are probably the mos t obvious.

cancer, she armed herself with a notebook and a pen and a thousand questions for the docto rs. She took notes on white blood cell counts and medications(药
物) with long names as though she were studying for entrance exams into medical school. “T
he not-knowing is the worst.” she said.
The operation was successful. The chemo(化
疗) was the harder part. I went with Mom to every chemo treatment. She rarely complained, t hough her hair was gone and her toenails and fingernails fell out one by one. She joked that she could save money on nail polish and put it toward the doctor bills, even though she never wore nail polish. “Cancer can take my hair, my nails, my health, my very life. But it can’t take my smile.” Mom said.
Mom learned to share her fears with me, and it formed an even deeper bond between us. Ye t I am certain there were fears she didn’t share because she was still protecting me—worries she only shared with Dad. Even in the darkest hours, she would just joke about the c ancer. Mom always said, “When you look your greatest fear in the eye and laugh at it, you ta ke away some of its power.”
Mom was one of the lucky ones. She did beat her cancer, though not without scars. From her , I’ve learned I may not get to choose what I face, but I do get to choose how I face it.
