    There are 365 days in a year. We sleep 8 hours a day, so we have 122 days for sleeping. Then our work time has 243 days left. But there are 52 weekends in a year. Each weekend is two days. We lose another 104 days a year for work. It takes us about one hour to have breakfast and supper. This comes to 15 days over a year. But we can’t work all that time-we need a holiday. Let’s say we have three weeks’ holiday. We don’t work all day. Four free hours each evening takes up 61 days. We have to remember that we get 2 days’ holiday at Easter, 3 at Christmas and 1 at the New Year. There are also 4 Bank holidays. Take those 10 days away and we have 32 days for work. But then we have one and a half hours’ lunch every day, and half an hour’s coffee break. That comes to 30 days a year. This means that we have only a few days left for work every year!
    小题1:How many days do we sleep in a year? ___days.
    A．365B．122C．8D．52
    小题2:We spend 15 days on __________.
    A．restB．coffee breakC．lunchD．breakfast and supper
    小题3:Which of the following is true? __________
    A．Each weekend is one day.B．We have 61 days for free time.
    C．We get 3 days’ holiday at EasterD．Coffee break takes us one hour.
    小题4:According to the passage, we know that we don’t have ______ time to work every year.
    A．much tooB．so manyC．too muchD．too many
    小题5:The writer means __________.
    A．we should know the numbersB．a few days for work is enough
    C．we need more holidaysD．time is important and we’d better not waste(浪费) it
    小题1:B
    小题2:D
    小题3:B
    小题4:C
    小题5:D

    试题分析：
    小题1:根据so we have 122 days for sleeping可知，我们一年睡觉122天。所以本题选B。
    小题2:通过 It takes us about one hour to have breakfast and supper. This comes to 15 days over a year.可知，在早饭和晚饭上一年要用15天。所以本题选D。
    小题3:根据 Each weekend is two days可知A是错误的；根据we get 2 days’ holiday at Easter可知C是错误的；根据half an hour’s coffee break可知D是错误的；根据 Four free hours each evening takes up 61 days可知，B 是正确的。
    小题4:根据This means that we have only a few days left for work every year!
    可知，我们工作的时间不太多，修饰time不能用many，故排除BD；而much too是“太，非常”的意思，只有too much是“太多”的意思，可以修饰时间。所以本题选C。
    小题5:通过阅读全文，我们知道作者的意思是我们工作的时间不多，不能浪费时间。所以本题选D。
    点评：本文通过算账的形式告诉我们工作的时间不多，不能浪费时间。由于文中出现的数字较多，不易把握，所以在阅读时尽量减慢速度，注意体会作者的意图，当然本题的题目并不是很难，1、2、3小题都可以在文中找到答案，第4小题是考知识方面的题目,5小题是推测题。

    Sugar—free beets（甜菜）that still taste sweet, tastier tomatoes and brighter-colored fruits and vegetables that stay ripe（熟的）longer are all foods that are being grown now. How can they
    carry traits, such as being tastier, brighter, and riper? They are genetically engineered.
    Genetic engineering（基因工程）is like making a change in a recipe. For example, when you make cakes, you mix together all of the usual ingredients. If you add an extra ingredient, like salt, the cakes will taste differently.
    Genes are ingredients in the recipe for life. They carry the traits of living things. Your genes dictate what color hair and eyes you’ll have, how tall you’ll be, as well as many other traits. Genes carry traits for plants, too. By adding genes to a plant, you can sometimes create new traits. For example, adding a certain gene to a potato plant can make the potato plant distasteful to bugs（虫子）. This makes some farmers happy because they don’t have to use chemicals to keep bugs away from their plants.
    It sounds great, but some people are opposed to the idea of food that is genetically engineered. Ronnie Cummins, from the Campaign for Food Safety, is against it. He says that one of the major concerns is allergies（过敏）. Supermarkets don’t always label foods that are genetically engineered. A customer could unknowingly buy food that has an added gene from another plant that he or she is allergic to. It could be dangerous.
    Gary Burton from Monsanto, a seed（种子）company that engineers food, disagrees. He says his company tests for allergies. Burton believes that genetic engineering is a valuable tool for making better food. The technology can help farmers use less insecticide（杀虫剂）and grow healthier crops. Burton thinks there are many advantages.
    But Cummins says that we just don’t know what will happen in the future if we keep adding genes to foods. We could mistakenly create a monster.
    People have different opinions about genetic engineering. One side supports it and thinks it will only help us. The other side is opposed to playing with nature and fears health risks. Which side do you think is right?
    小题1:What could be a good thing about food that is genetically engineered?
    A．It’s more expensive.
    B．It could taste different.
    C．It requires less insecticide.
    D．It’s not labeled in the supermarket.
    小题2:In general, who does not support the idea of genetic food?
    A．People from seed companies.
    B．Farmers who use engineered seeds.
    C．People from the Campaign for Food Safety.
    D．Scientists who create genetically engineered food.
    小题3:It can be inferred that          .
    A．growing genetic foods will make farmers richer
    B．people will eat more genetic foods in the future
    C．using fewer chemicals could make the food tastier
    D．there could be unknown dangers about genetic foods
    小题4:What is the best title of this passage?
    A．Future Farming
    B．Genetic Engineering
    C．Foods with a Difference
    D．Genetically Engineered Fruits

    One day, a teacher was giving a speech to his students. He held up a glass of water and asked the class, "How heavy do you think this glass of water is?"
    The students' answers ranged from 20 g to 500 g. "It does not matter on the weight itself. It depends on how long you hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it is OK. If I hold it for an hour, I will have an ache in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, you will have to call an ambulance (救护车). It is exactly the same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes. "
    If we carry our burdens (负担) all the time, sooner or later, we will not be able to carry on, the burden becoming increasingly heavier. "

    Today almost everyone knows computers and the Internet. If I ask you “What is the most important in your life?” maybe you will say “Computers and the Internet.”
    The first computer was made in 1946. it was very big but it worked slowly. Today computers are getting smaller and smaller. But they work faster and faster. What can computers do? A writer has said, “People can’t live without computers today.”
    The Internet came a little later than computers. It is about twenty-five years later than computers. But now it can be found almost everywhere. We can use it to read books, writer letters, do shopping, play computer games or make friends.
    Many students like the Internet very much. They often go into the Internet as soon as they are free. They make friends on the Internet and maybe they have never seen these friends. They don’t know their real names, ages, and even sex. They are so interested in making the “unreal friends” that they can’t put their hearts into study. Many of them can’t catch up with others on many subjects because of that.
    We can use computers and the Internet to learn more about the world. But at the same time, we should remember that not all the things can be done by computers and the Internet.
    小题1: The Internet can not be used for______.
    A．studyingB．shoppingC．thinkingD．playing
