I used to thin that life in Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania, was filled with never-changing routines. I hated that everyone seemed to now everything about everyone else. Everyone seemed to enjoy taling about other people and their lives. I also didn’t lie the fact that people seemed very close-minded. I felt trapped. I felt lie I was missing out on opportunities.

at one time. All the streets were filled with people. I also felt a little surprised to see that everyone was in a hurry and everything moved at such a fast pace. When I too the subway for the first time, I said hello to the middle-aged woman net to me. She looed at me with dislie and didn’t say a word.
After just one day, I realied how important my small town is to me. Now I appreciate the familiar faces I see every day. I lie the feeling of security（安全）and belonging my town offers. Jim Thorpe gives me a sense of community and togetherness that the city doesn’t provide. I realie just how much a simple hello does
for a stranger — it really can mae your day a little better.
My big trip showed me that my small town really has instilled(注入) morals and values in me that I didn’t even now I had. I never would have nown what a big place my town holds in my heart if I had not taen that trip to New Yor City.

I now what you’re thining pia （比萨饼）? For breafast? But the truth is that you can have last night’s leftovers in the morning if you want to.
I now lots of women who sip breafast （不吃早餐）, and they have a ton of different ecuses for doing it . Some say they don’t have time;others thin they’re "saving” calories , and still others just don’t lie breafast food .
But the bottom line is that eating in the morning is very important when you’re trying to lose weight. "Eating just about anything from 300 to 400 calories would be better than nothing at all,”says atherine Brooing.R.D, who developed the super-easy eating plan for this year’s “SELF CHALLENGE”. And even pia can be healthy if it’s loaded with vegetabl es, and you stic to one small piece.
Breafast is one meal I never miss, and the same goes for most weight loss success stories. Research shows that eating breafast eeps you from overeating later in the day. Researchers at the University of Southern California found that breafast sippers have a bigger chance of gaining weight than those who regularly have a morning meal.
So eat something in the morning, anything. I now plenty of friends who end up having no breafast altogether, and have just coffee or orange juice. I say, try heating up last night’s leftovers ---it may sound cray, but if it wors for you, do it! I find if I tell myself, "You can always eat it tomorrow,” I put away the leftovers instead of eating more that night. Try it,and then you may save yourself some pre-bed time calories. And watch your body gain the fat-burning effects.
28.The word “leftovers” in Paragraph 1 probably means__________.
A. things left undone
B. food remaining after a meal
C. meals made of vegetables
D. pia topped with fruit
29.What can we infer from the tet?
A. Woring women usually have breafast in a hurry.
B. There are some easy ways of cooing a meal.
C. Many people have wrong ideas about breafast.
D. Eating vegetables helps save energy.
30.According to the last paragraph, it is important to____________.
A. eat something for breafast
B. eat calorie-controlled food
C. heat up leftovers for breafast
D. put away the leftovers instead of eating more.
31.The tet is written mainly for those_____________.
A. who go to wor early
B. who stay up late
C. who want to lose weight
D. who eat before sleep
D
It’s cold and dar outside,and your bed is so warm and comfortable.Going for a run seems lie such a bad idea.But before you hide your running shoes,it might be worth giving that cray idea a go.
According to The Huffington Post, an outdoor run in winter, as opposed to one on a treadmill (跑步机), burns more calories because the body is woring hard to regulate (调节)its core temperature. Furthermore, research shows that race times are faster in cold weather than in warmer temperatures—and quicer runs burn more calories. Similarly, cold weather also maes the heart wor harder to distribute blood through the body, maing that vital muscle even stronger.
Outdoor eercise also turns up your energy and rids you of the stress and depression that build up every day. The heat and humidity in the summer can drag you down and tire you faster, but cold weather is refreshing. It adjusts you to your surroundings, maing you feel alive.
Of course, the threat of smog in some built-up areas is a further hurdle to winter eercise. Heart attacs,stroe,lung cancer and asthma are all dangers of running in smog.The combination
of air pollution and eercise increases the potential problems.If you do choose to run outside on smoggy days,tae a path in a par or residential area to avoid car ehaust（尾气）, and go early in the morning, before rush hour. But staying inside on smoggy days and waiting for the net clear day to run is best.
32.How does cold weather benefit runners,compared with warm weather?
A.They can run more slowly.
B.They can tae in more calories.
C.Their hearts can function harder.
D.Their body temperature can get lower.
33.How does summer affect runners?
A.It builds up their energy quicly.
B.It maes runners tired easily.
C.It lessens runners’ stress.
D.It causes heart attac.
34.What are the runners supposed to do on smoggy days?
A.Stop driving cars.
B.Do more eercise.
C.Avoid outdoor eercise.
D.Run late in the morning.
35.What can be the best title of the tet?
A.Refresh with a Winter Run
B.Tae Outdoor Eercise in Summer
C.Go to Run in a Par
D.Follow the Tips to Reduce Stress

Tips for cooing on a tight schedule
From my eperience, there are three main reasons why people don't coo more often ability, money, and time. __36__ Money is a topic I'll save for another day. So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to mae the most of the time you spend in the itchen. Here are three tips for great cooing on a tight schedule：
1. Thin ahead. The moments when I thin cooing is a pain are when I'm already hungry and there's nothing ready to eat. So thin ahead of the coming wee. When will you have time to coo? Do you have the right materials already? __37__
2. Mae your time worth it. When you do find time to coo a meal, mae the most of it and
save yourself time later on. Are you maing one loaf of bread? __38__ It taes around the same amount of time to mae more of something. So save yourself the effort for a future meal.
3. __39__ This may surprise you, but one of the best tools for maing cooing worth your time is eperimentation. It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and recipes that can wor well with your appetite and schedule. The more you learn and the more you try, the more ability you have to tae control of your food and your schedule.
Hopefully that gives you a good start. __40__ And don't let a busy schedule discourage you from maing some great changes in the way you eat and live!
A. A little time planning ahead can save a lot of wor later on.
B. Try new things.
C. Understand your food better.
D. Let cooing and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.
E. Ability is easily improved.
F. Cooing is a burden for many people.
G. Mae three or four instead.

五．书面表达
Dear Mie,
How are you doing these days? I’m writing to tell you somethi ng about the annual campus boo fair which will be held soon in our school
The annual campus boo fair aims to provide a platform where students can have a chance to echange and mae use of their boos. It will attract a large number of students from the entire school, who are to sell, purchase and echange their second-hand boos with their peers.
As a regular visitor, I’ve found the fair of great importance to us students.It ehibits boos of different types on diverse topics, motivating us to further develop our reading habits and helps to broaden our horions. Beside, the boos are sold at a much lower price than what the boostores offer, so that most of us can afford to buy some.
Please let me now if you have any suggestions on how to host such a boo fair better.
Yours
Li Hua。
