13、You can not see any object unless light from that object gets into your eyes. Some of the things you see give off light of their own. The sun, the stars, a lighted lamp are examples that can be seen by their own light. Such things are luminous. Most of the things you see are not giving off light of their own. They are simply reflecting light that falls on them from the sun or some other luminous bodies. The moon, for example, does not give off any light of its own. It is non-luminous. You see it because sunlight falls on it and some of it reflects in our direction. So moon light is only second hand sunlight.
When you look at a book, it sends to your eyes some of the light which falls on it, and you see the book. If light could be kept out from where you are so that there would be no light for the book to reflect, then you could not see the book even with your eyes wide open.
Light travels so fast that the time in which it travels from the book you are reading to your eyes is so short as if there were no time at all. Light reaches us from the moon, which is about 380 000 kilometers away, in only a little more than a second.
1．You can see the book because_______.
A．your eyes are close to it B．it reflects some of the sunlight
C．it has light of its own D．your eyesight can get to it
2．The underlined word “luminous” means_______.
A．visible B．all colors C．giving off light D．sunlight
3．Light traces about _________ kilometers per second.
A．380 000 B．300 000 C．400 000 D．190 000
4．Which of the following is true?
A．The moment you open your eyes the light from the book travels to your eyes.
B．Light from the book is much shorter than that from the moon.
C．All the things you can see give off light.
D．Light travels so fast that there is no time for you to read.
5．What is the main idea of the passage?
A．Y ou can see and read a book because you open your eyes.
B．Some objects are luminous, some not.
C．Y ou can see things because of light.
D．Light travels very fast so you cannot notice it.

Hello, I'm Zheng Yishi from Shanghai. I'm 15 years old. I study at Walsh Jesuit High School in Cleveland, Ohio, US.
I Like reading, traveling and listening to music. I'm glad to share my experience with you.
Have you ever wondered what PE classes are like in other countries? In China, PE tests are required to graduate from both middle school and high school. To get good grades on the PE tests, Chinese students will need to practice running as well as doing sit-ups and pull-ups. However, this is not the way that PE classes work in US high schools.
In my high school, we are required to take two terms of PE to graduate. We play real sports during PE classes, such as basketball and volleyball. There are also some other typical American sports that we often play, such as kickball and dodgeball(躲避球).
I didn't know the rules of kickball and dodgeball when I first came to the US. The teacher allowed me to sit on the sidelines and watch how other students played it in order to let me find out the rules.
We also learn some useful life skills in PE. Last year, I learned how to do CPR(心肺复苏), which is a life-saving skill. We were also taught how to provide first aid to someone who is choking(窒息).These skills are a large part of the final grade for the PE class in my high school. Self-defense(自卫)is taught in PE class as well. This includes some tae kwon
do(跆拳道)and karate(空手道) skills, as well as Chinese kung fu. It is practical. I prefer PE classes in the US to the ones in China. I think they are more fun and useful. What do you think?
1．The writer learned the rules of kickball and dodgeball through ·
A．a teacher's instruction B．watching others play
C．playing the sport herself D．watching online videos
2．Which of these things did the writer NOT learn about in PE classes at Welsh Jesuit High School?
A．How to play sports. B．Life–saving skills.
C．Self-defense skills. D．How to treat burns.
3．The story is written to .
A．introduce the writer's favorite sports
B．explain what US PE classes are like
C．show why US students don't like PE classes
D．suggest that China should change its PE classes

15、Decisions, decisions! Our lives are full of them, from the small ones to the life-changing. The right to choose iscentralto everyone. Yet sometimes we make bad decisions that leave us unhappy or full of regret. Can science help? Most of us know little about the mental processes that lie behind our decisions. Luckily, what psychologists(心理学
家)are finding may help us all make better choices. Here are some of their amazing discoveries to help you make up your mind.
Consider your emotions. You might think that emotions are the enemy of decision making, but in fact they are a part of it. Whenever you make up your mind, your brain’s emotional centre is active. University of Southern California scientist, Antonio Damasia, has studied people with damage to only the emotional parts of their brains , and found that they were unable to make basic choices about what to wear or eat. Damasia thinks this may be because our brains store emotional memories of past choice, which we use to help the present decision-making.
However, making choices under the influence of an emotion can greatly affect the result. Take anger, for example. A study by Nitika Garg of the University of Mississippi and other scientists found the angry shoppers were more likely to choose the first thing they were offered rather than considering other choices. It seems that anger can lead us to make quick decisions without much thinking.
All emotions affect our thinking and motivation（动机），so it may be best to avoid making important decisions under their influence. Yet strangely there is one emotion that seems to help us make good choices. The American researchers found that sad people took time to consider the various choices on offer, and ended up making the best choices. In fact many studies show that people who feel unhappy have the most reasonable view of the world.
1．According to the text, what may help us make better decisions?
A．To think about happy times.
B．To make many decisions at a time.
C．To stop feeling regretful about the past.
D．To learn about the process of decision-making.
2．What does the underlined word “central” mean?
A．中心的B．中央的C．起决定作用的D．后悔的
3．Damasia’s study s uggests that ________.
A．emotions are the enemy of decision making.
B．our brain has nothing to do with decision making.
C．people with physical damage find it hard to make up their minds.
D．our emotional memories of past choices can affect present decisions.
4．Why are angry shoppers more likely to choose the first thing they are offered?
A．They often forget their past choices.
B．They make decisions without much thinking.
C．They tend to save time when shopping.
D．They are too angry to bargain.
5．What do we learn from the text?
A．Emotions are a part of decision-making.
B．Sad people always make worse choices.
C．No emotion seems to help us make good choices.
D．Only sad feeling affect our thinking and motivation.

16、Dear Reader,
Imagine an 11-year-old child whose days are often spent washing clothes, looking after a baby, working hard in the fields.
Imagine a little girl who knows there will not be enough food for dinner, who can't fill her stomach with water because it's polluted ,and who has watched life slip away(消失) from her father, little brother and sister because the family is too poor to see a doctor.
Is it hard to believe? For Maria Pastora, these are the real life.
Maria would gladly walk miles to school, but her mother ,now alone, needs her badly at home .Chances are Maria will grow up without any schooling .What will be her future? In many ways, it will be disastrous(灾难性的).
But for just 52pennies a day ,you can sponsor(资助) a child like Maria. Show her that somewhere, someone cares about her. Through “ Save the Children”, you can help Maria's mother get the tools and ways she needs to turn their poor food into a good dinner and get the money she needs to buy clothes and school things for Maria.

themselves. Build a school, a hospital, bring in clean water .This is what “Save the Children” has been about since 1932.
For you there are many rewards. Have the chance to write to or hear from your sponsored child. Receive photos or progress reports. Knowing that you are reaching out to another person. Not with a handout, but a hand up. That's how “Save the Children” works. But without you, it can't work. Please t ake a moment now to fill in and post the form below to help a child like Maria and her village.

You’re chatting with friends on the phone, but you can’t help looking through shopping websit es in the meantime. You’re having lunch alone in the dining hall, but it only feels right when you start playing a show on your phone ---as if it’s a necessary “side dish”.
We’re now living in a world that is filled with information. It seems unnatural to do only one thing at a time. It’s as if we’re all suffering from a recent article called “multitasking OCD”.
“With news reduced to 140 characters and communication increasingly by emojis, we have developed the ability to focus our attention on several act ivities and devices at once,” Sabry Otmani, founder of Pulpix website, once wrote. “We need something exciting to keep us interested and to fight off boredom.”
But perhaps “fighting off boredom” is not the only reason.
My own obsession with multitasking mainly comes from the fact that everyone around me seems to study all the time. Each minute I’m not taking in something new feels like a waste of time. So I always have my headphones on, whether I’m commuting, exercising or walking in the park. I’m forever l istening to something---a course on classical music, or on new media management, and heaven knows what else---just so I can keep up with the world.
People who can’t stay away from social media are known by “FOMO” (fear of missing out): They have to be upda ted about what their friends are doing and saying. But I’d guess that “FOFO” better describes me –“fear of falling out”.
No matter what reason you’re doing it for, “multitasking” is already a part of the modern lifestyle. Just make sure you make the most out of it.
1．In the first paragraph, the author wants to ______.
A．show how busy today’s life is
B．show that people today often feel lost
C．explain what “multitasking OCD” is like
D．say people like to compare with each other
2．According to Sabry Otmani people today like multitasking because _______.
A．it can help them to communicate their ideas
B．it can help them out of being bored
C．they are impatient to finish one thing at a time
D．they are more able than the past generations
3．The underlined word “obsession” may mean “_______”.
A．interest B．knowledge C．understanding D．worry
4．Which of the following is correct about the writer?
A．She wants to stay ahead of her friends.
B．She wants to have something to show off.
C．She doesn’t want to get left behind by othe rs.
D．She thinks it is boring to do one thing at a time.

18、When I was about twelve years old, a girl in my class liked to point out my shortcomings(缺点). She said I was very thin; I wasn't good at math; I talked too much; I was too proud, and so on. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes. He listened to me quietly, and asked, "Are those things true or not? Jane, didn't you ever think about what you're really like?" Then he added, "Well, you have that girl's opinions. Make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true."
I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I found out that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn't change, like being very thin, but many I could and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I got a clear picture of myself.
I brought the list back to Daddy, and he said, "Now you know better about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears angrily and feel hurt. When something said about you is true, you'll find it will be of great help to you. Don't shut your ears. Listen to the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do. "
Daddy's advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I've never had a better piece of advice. 1．How old was Jane when a girl in her class pointed out her shortcomings?
A．About 10. B．About 12. C．About 14.
2．Which thing did Jane think she couldn't change?
A．She was very thin.
B．She wasn't good at math.
C．She talked too much.
3．Who changed the writer's opinion?
A．Father. B．Mother. C．Sister.
4．What did Jane's father really mean by saying "Make a list of everything... "?
A．To listen to her classmate's opinions.
B．To find out what is right and what is wrong.
C．To know herself better and improve herself.
5．Which of the following is the best title for this passage?
A．My Father B．The Best Advice C．My Life

19、Dear Mr. Green,
I'm interested to take part in the Social Practical Program of our school. I'd like to choose the second –recycle useful in the waste.
There are some ways to reuse the wastes. The used plastic bags can be used to contain our family rubbish. The empty tins can be made into ashtrays. We can also make the used bottles into different kinds of handiwork. That will make our rooms more beautiful. If we don't know how to reuse the wastes, we can sell them to the recycling station. There are many other ways to reuse the waste. If we try our best to recycle the waste, there will be less waste and less pollution in our life. To cherish the environment is to love ourselves.
Yours,
Zhang Ming。
