Passage 7(2014 江苏镇江，C)
“In my day,we had to walk a mile to school—uphill,both ways." That may sound like an old joke.Today,only 13 percent of kids walk to school,down from 66 percent 30 years ago.
Studies show that fewer children are walking and biking to school,and more children are at risk of becoming overweight. Changing behaviors of children and parents requires creative ways that are safe and fun.
A walking school bus can be both.
It works like a bus,picking up passengers along the way at designated (指定的) “bus stops” except everyone is walking!
The Walking School Bus works as a supervised group of children walking to and from school along a safe and enjoyable set route.There are at least two parents in a group.One parent “drives” at the front of the bus,while the other parent supervises at the back. The different supervisors go with the children to and from school. Ad- ditional (增加的) parents may be needed depending on the walking environment.
The “bus” can go as often as parents want to “ drive” it and children want to use it.This means that it can even work as little as one morning or afternoon each week. All children are welcome to join the bus even if their parents cannot be drivers. And the service is free.
Socially,it's great because the children meet other children;oth?erwise they would only know by sight.
“ My children have formed some good friendships because of the Walking Bus.The parents get to know other parents too!" a parent said From our experience of the Walking Bus,it has only been a meaningful thing.lt gets all of us walking more and the children do not complain about walking like they used to.
Some kids said compared to the Walking School Bus,it's boring in a car when they were asked why not get into a car.
Besides these,it might have a good effect on heavy traffic.
1. How many students walked to school 30 years ago?
A. 66 percent. B. 13 percent.
C. 30 percent. D.53 percent.
2. What does the underlined word “supervised” mean in the pas?sage?

3. What can the Walking School Bus NOT do to help the children .
A. make more friends
B. reduce the risk of being overweight
C. exercise more
D. complain about walking
4. The best title of this passage is
A. A new way to exercise
B. A new school bus

D. Parents’ driving school bus

[语篇解读]研究表明：目前步行或骑自行车上学的孩子减少了，而 越来越多的孩子有超重的风险。在这样的背景下，“步行校车”的理念 诞生了。每辆“校车”至少有两名家长监管，以确保“校车”在安全的 路线上行驶。这不仅让孩子们爱上了步行，而且加强了他们之间的友 谊，繁忙的交通也得到了有效的缓解。

Passage 2 (2015江苏南京玄武区一模,c)
April will bring a new product — the Apple Watch—into the market. 
Last week,the watch was firstly introduced ^WATCH by Tim Cook,Apple's CEO.The price of the watch will differ from $ 349 to$ 1,099,depending on its size,strap and whether it is a sports or regular version.
Apple engineers and designers have put in a lot of thoughts and hard work into creating this“small screen”on your wrist (手腕) .The “sensor”on the screen not only detects your finger,but knows the difference between when you are tapping,and when you are pressing harder.
The watch also has “ haptic feedback (触觉反馈) ”.You can send personal messages to your friend—such as drawing a star or a special sign with your fingers,or tapping the watch,say 3 times,and your friend will receive those taps on their wrist.
Besides telling the time,the watch will use “bluetooth” to connect to your iPhone and show calls or text messages that come in.
According to Tim Cook,the watch may open up a whole new area of applications that we had never thought of. Some car factories like BMW have developed an app that allows its car owners to open their cars with the watch. A “Hotels ”app may allow you to open the door to your hotel room without worrying about losing the smart card.And finally,even airlines are jumping in—passengers may be able to simply wave their wrist to check into their flight.
The biggest use of the watch,however,is as your personal fitness coach.The watch can measure your pulse ( heartbeat) using a sensor at the bottom of the watch.lt also has the same” accelerometer as your iPhone,so it knows when you are moving,and also how much you are walking or running.lt will remind you if you have been sitting for too long without much activity. Many stores are planning to stop selling the Nike,Jawbone and FitBit devices ( 设备) to welcome ihe Apple Watch.Will the Apple Watch really replace these devices and make fitness much more fun?

I thought there must he two or three people there with her. When Mr. Woolf saw lhat I looked surprised,he told me that Mrs. Woolf always said out loud the sentences that she had written during the night. She needed to know if they sounded right and the bathroom was a good place for trying them out.

Passage 9(2013江苏南京鼓楼区,C)
(One day Alice runs after a strange rabbit and comes into a deep hole. She becomes smaller when she wakes up the next 
day.She finds herself in a wonderland with many amazing things inside.)
The Caterpillar (毛毛虫) and Alice looked at each other for some time in silence. At last the Caterpillar took the pipe out of its mouth,and said to her in a tired,sleepy voice.
“Who are you?” asked the Caterpillar.
This opening for a talk couldn^ nicike Alice at ease. Alice re?plied,rather shyly,“I—I hardly know,sir,just at present-at least I know who I was when I got up this morning,but I think I must have been changed several times since then.t,
“What do you mean by that?” said the Caterpillar, “Explain yourself! ”
“ I can’t explain myself. I'm afraid,sir ,” said Alice, u because I'm not myself,you see."
“ I don't see”’said the Caterpillar.
“ I'm afraid I can't put it more clearly,”Alice replied ver po?litely,” for I can't understand it myself. And being so many different sizes in a day is very puzzling."
“It isn’t,” said the Caterpillar. “Well，perhaps you haven’t found it so yet ,” said Alice, “ But when you have to turn into a chrysalis (蛹苗) 一you will some day,you know—and then after that into a butterfly,1 think you’ll feel it a little stranger,won’t you?”
“ Not a bit ,”said the Caterpillar.
Well,perhaps your feelings may be different, said Alice, All I know is,it would make me feel very strange.
“You!” said the Caterpillar scornfully. “Who are you?” The question brought them back again to the beginning of the talk. Alice felt a little angry because the Caterpillar was making such very short sentences.She drew herself up and said very seriously,1 think you ought to tell me who you are first."
“Why?” said the Caterpillar.
Here was another puzzling question. As Alice could not think out any good reason,and as the Caterpillar seemed to be very unpleasant,she turned away. “ Come back! ” the Caterpillar called after her. “ I've something important to tell you! ”
This certainly gave Alice some hope. Alice turned and came back again.
1.Where may their talk take place?
A. In a wonderland. B. In the field.
C. In the tree. D. Outside the hole.
2. Alicedidn't feel during her talk with Caterpillar.
A. shy B. sad C. angry D. strange

A. Because she was too young to understand the changes.
B. Because being changed several times in a day made her feel puz?zled.
C. Because she didn't like her changes.
D. Because she didn't feel very well.
4. Put the following statements in the correct order according to the story.
①. lice drew herself up.
② Alice used an example to explain the changes to herself.
③. Alice couldn^ explain herself.
④ Alice turned away.
⑤Alice looked at Caterpillar for some time in silence.
