    Antarctica is in the most southern part of the world. It is like nowhere else on the earth. It is much larger than Europe, and nearly twice the size of Australia. Antarctica is the coldest and windiest place in the world, even colder and windier than the North Pole. In summer, the sun shines for twenty-four hours a day, but in winter it’s completely dark for about three months. Very few plants grow there, but there is some wildlife, including whales, seals and penguins.
    When Captain James Cook traveled around Antarctica in the 1770s by ship, he found no one living there. Today, a few scientists work in Antarctica, but they only spend a short time there.
    Many scientists are studying the ozone layer, which is getting thinner and thinner worldwide. The biggest “hole” is above Antarctica, and weather there is getting warmer. Scientists think that this cold and lonely place can teach us a lot about the earth and how to keep the earth safe.

In a few years，Amazon. com had 10 million different things in categories including books，CDs，toys，electronics，videos，DVDs，things you use to fix up a house，software，and video games. Today you can buy anything from food to gold rings at a“virtual shopping mall”，that is，a group of stores all over the world that works like group of stores all in one place.

    Learning English grammar and English vocabulary can be hard enough, but trying to understand English sayings can be more difficult. Some are just hard to figure out and others don’t make any sense at all. Here are four funny English sayings that you can use every day.
    I’m happy as a clam(蛤).
    Think of a clam. It doesn’t have to do anything. It just sits on a beach or on the bottom of the ocean all day doing nothing. It never has to work. That sounds like happiness, doesn’t it? If someone asks, “How are you today?” you can answer “I am happy as a clam” to let him or her know what a great mood you are in.
    I wouldn’t touch that (or him/her) with a ten-foot pole.
    Maybe there is a person who you don’t want to be friends with or even talk to. Well, this saying means that you dislike him or her so much that you don’t want to touch or go near him or her, even within ten feet!
    You don’t have a leg to stand on.
    This saying doesn’t mean that the person you’re talking to has no legs. It means that his or her argument is incorrect. He or she doesn’t have a leg to stand on because he or she has no facts to support what he or she is saying. This saying is a good way to tell people that you think they’re wrong.
    Break a leg!
    This saying actually means the opposite of what it sounds like. If you tell this to a person, you’re wishing him or her good luck！The saying comes from a superstition(迷信) that whatever you say aloud, the opposite will come true.
    小题1:The first paragraph mainly tells us____________________.
    A．learning English grammar is hard
    B．learning English vocabulary is hard
    C．we should use English sayings every day
    D．it can be harder to understand English sayings
    小题2:Which of the following is TRUE about a clam?
    A．It can be used to show happiness.B．It needs to do many things.
    C．It needs to eat a lot.D．It can only live on the beach.
    小题3:The saying “I wouldn’t touch him with a ten-foot pole” means___________.
    A．I hate him.B．I want him to be my friend.
    C．I like him.D．I want to argue with him.
    小题4:We can learn from the passage that______________________.
    A．the saying “You don’t have a leg to stand on” means someone loses his legs
    B．the saying “Break a leg” means someone hurts his or her leg
    C．if we say “Break a leg” to someone, we give him or her a good wish
    D．if we say “I am ill” aloud, we will become healthy

    Sports can help you keep fit and close to nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should realize that sport you choose might have great influence on the environment.
    Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also lots of water. Besides, huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses（球场）in good condition. This causes major environmental changes. For example, in the dry places of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for (为...承担责任） serious water shortage(短缺) in some local areas.
    There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don't need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes, and you don't have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also help you stay healthy. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and keep thin.
    Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener than by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be "green gyms." They are better replacements(替代) for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership(会员身份)． And best of all, it's free.
    小题1:Which of following does the author most probably support according to the passage?
    A．Bicycling around the lake.B．Car racing on the road.
    C．Playing basketball in a gym.D．Swimming in a sports center.

    A．广为流行的.B．亲近自然的.C．低成本的.D．耗费资源的.
    小题3: The author uses power walking as an example mainly because
    A．it is an outdoor sport.B．it is loved by many people.
    C．it uses fewer recourses.D．it is supported by experts.

    Carmen Arace Middle School is situated in the pastoral town of Bloomfield, Conn., but four years ago it faced many of the same problems as inner-city schools in nearby Hartford: low scores on standardized tests and dropping enrollment（入学注册）. Then the school’s hard-driving headmaster, Delores Bolton, persuaded her board to shake up the place by buying a laptop computer for each student and teacher to use, in school and at home. What’s more, the board provided wireless Internet access at school. Total cost: $2.5 million.
    Now, an hour before classes start, every seat in the library is taken by students who cannot wait for getting online. Fifth-grade teacher Jen Friday talks about different kinds of birds as students view them at a colorful website. After school, students on buses pull laptops from backpacks to get started on homework. Since the computer arrived, enrollment is up 20%. Scores on state tests are up 35%.
    Indeed, school systems in rural Maine and New York City also hope to follow Arace Middle School’s example. Governor Angus King had planned using $50 million to buy a laptop for all of Maine’s 17,000 seventh-graders – and for new seventh-graders each fall.
    In the same spirit, the New York City board of education voted on April 12 to create a school Internet portal（入口）, which would make money by selling ads and licensing public school students. Profits（盈利）will also provide e-mail service for the city’s 1.1 million public school students. Profits will be used to buy laptops for each of the school system’s 87,000 fourth-graders. Within nine years, all students in grades 4 and higher will have their own computers.
    Back in Bloomfield, in the meantime, most of the kinks have been worked out. Some students were using their computers to visit unauthorized（非法的）websites. But teachers have the ability to keep an eye on where students have been on the Web and to stop them. “That is the worst when they disable you,” says eighth-grade honors student Jamie Bassell. The habit is rubbing off on parents. “I taught my mom to use e-mail,” says another eighth-grader, Katherine Hypolite. “And now she’s taking computer classes. I’m so proud of her!”
    小题1:The example of Carmen Arace Middle School in the passage is used to ______.
    A．show the problems schools are faced with today
    B．prove that a school without high enrollment can do well
    C．express the importance of computers in modern education
    D．tell that laptops can help improve students’ school performance
    小题2:According to the writer, students in New York City’s public schools will ______.
    A．enjoy e-mail service in the near future
    B．make money by selling ads on websites
    C．all have their own laptops within nine years
    D．become more interested in their studies with laptops
    小题3:The underlined word “kinks” in the last paragraph most probably means ______.
    A．plansB．projectsC．problemsD．products
    小题4:From the passage we learn that ______.
    A．a school Internet portal is the key to a laptop program
    B．the laptop program also has a good influence on parents
    C．students slowly accept the fact their online activities controlled
    D．the laptop program in public school is mainly for the eighth-graders
