    More and more people think it necessary to study in an English-speaking country and it didn’t take long at all for me to decide to come and study in UK.
    Having been in the school for 2 months, I’m getting used to school life, and I am starting to make the most of my time in here. School starts at 9 o’clock every morning, and every Monday, Wednesday and Friday we have long days, in which we have 9 lessons and school finishes at 4 o’clock. Every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturdays we have short days, in which we have only 6 lessons and finish at 1 o’clock. After lessons, we have two hours of activity time, when you can choose from a wide range of activities, including all the major sports, such as rugby and football, and also the minor sports such as basketball and tennis.
    As a boarder( 寄宿者)，the quality of food is something I consider very important, and Merchiston has not let me down. The school kitchens are run by a professional food company, and the quality of food is very excellent and also they take the healthy diet very seriously: I remember once I was once asked to take more salad for my meal by a member of the kitchen staff(员工) for I didn’t have enough vegetables. This brings another point of being a boarder: you need to learn how to look after yourself and be responsible(负责) for yourself. One of the huge advantages of being a boarder is that we can have breakfast in the school, which means we don’t have to pull ourselves out of bed as early as the day pupils!
    小题1:The passage mainly tells us about _______.
    A．the author’s school life in the UK as a boarder.
    B．the author’s opinion of the school life in the UK.
    C．the differences in school life between China and UK.
    D．the boarder life in a Britain middle school.
    小题2:According to the second paragraph, we can learn that the author _________ .
    A．has not enough time to studyB．likes to play tennis and basketball
    C．went to the school two months agoD．finishes school at 4 o’clock
    小题3:How many lessons do the students have every week in this school?
    A．15B．45C．27D．18
    小题4:The underlined words “let me down” in the last paragraph means _______.
    A．made me disappointedB．made me pleasedC．encouraged meD．amazed me
    小题5:As a boarder in the school, the author ___________ .
    A．is not used to the food thereB．has learned to have healthy diets
    C．is specially taken good care ofD．sleep as much as the day pupils

    Everyone gets sick of hearing. “Put on your seat belt!”But it’s good advice. People who wear seat belts are 45 percent less likely to be killed while riding in the front seat of a car.
    The US government wants more seat belt laws. It says children aged 4 to 15 are often killed in car accidents. In 2005, there were 1,627 children aged 4 to 15 killed in car accidents. More than 1,000 of those children were not wearing seat belts. If they had been wearing seat belts, 500 of those children could be alive today.
    These children are too old to be in car seats, but they often sit in the back seat. Seat belt laws in many states, including Wisconsin, only require people in the front seat to wear seat belts. Children who aren’t wearing seat belts can be thrown from the car. The risk of dying in an accident is three times greater if the person is thrown from the car.
    New laws could require children aged 4 to 8 to be in booster seats in the car. Booster seats help seat belts fit children properly. Right now, only 5 percent of children aged 4 to 8 are seated in booster seats.
    While parents have the choice of whether wearing seat belts or not, children are too young to make that choice. Even if you decide not to wear a seat belt, make sure you children are in seat belts and car seats. It’s the law and it will save their lives.
    小题1:The underlined sentence “Everyone gets sick of hearing”in the first paragraph means“________”.
    A．there is something wrong with everyone’s ears
    B．all people fall ill when they hear something
    C．many people don’t pay attention to wearing seat belts
    D．none of the people knows it is a piece of good advice
    小题2:More than two-third of 1,627 children were killed because ___________.
    A．they weren’t using seat belts
    B．they were too careful when they walked on the road
    C．they were not old enough to sit in the car
    D．they wore seat belts
    小题3:You must get your children to put on seat belts in order to ________.
    A．keep them comfortable in the car seatB．keep them safe
    C．keep them awake in the car all the timeD．prevent all kinds of traffic accidents
    小题4:What would be the best title of this passage?
    A．Children Should Put on Seat Belts.
    B．Too Many Traffic Accidents Happened Recently.
    C．Traffic Laws Are Very Important.
    D．Parents Are Important to Children.

    Coaches and parents always tell us to keep our goals in mind when we go for a competition. Carrying your goals and expectations into a competition is one of the biggest mistakes any athlete can make. This is a big game and you want to win. You want to score a hundred, defeat your competitors, or score a hat-trick（三分）of goals. When you carry your goals into the competitive ground with you, chances are great that you will leave that performance with disappointment and heartache, and nothing more!
    Expectations will weigh you down. Expectations will distract （使分心）you from the performance and make your muscles tighten up. Want to perform to your potential when it counts the most? Then write your goals on a piece of paper before you leave for the game, match or race, and then leave that paper at home!  Make a deal with yourself to let go of your goals. Expectations and goals should be your training partner, used to motivate you to work harder during practice and take your game to the next level, However, never take your goals and expectations into a competition. You will not perform to your potential!
    Go into your competitions without any preconceived （预想的）ideas about the result. Forget the outcome!  Instead, keep your focus on what you’re doing in the moment. Think of the competition as it unfolds, moment by moment. Relax at every opportunity by breathing deep and letting go of the tension in your muscles. When you do this you’ll remain loose and relaxed. When you stay loose,  you’ll perform to your capabilities. Goals and expectations are very important for your overall motivation, and very harmful when you carry them into a performance.
    小题1:According to the passage, for an athlete one of the biggest mistakes is _______.
    A．forgetting his goals when competingB．worrying about his not winning
    C．carrying his goals into the competitionD．paying too much attention to the result
    小题2:The underlined part  “weigh you down” in the second paragraph probably means “________”.
    A．make you feel anxiousB．make you want to do something
    C．help you perform to the potentialD．help you concentrate on something
    小题3:According to the author, expectations and goals should be ________.
    A．set within one’s capabilities
    B．used as an encouragement when training
    C．written down in case of being forgotten
    D．divided into some small parts
    小题4:What might be the most suitable title for the passage?
    A．Keep your goals in mindB．Set your goals for a competition
    C．Forget your goals after competitionsD．Leave your goals at home

    House buyers have three main choices: building from the ground up, moving into an old house or buying a new one. All the three are very different and should be considered carefully. Your budget will probably have the biggest effect on your choice. Comparing the three will help you make a good decision.
    New houses are untouched and fresh, which means they can suit your personality and you know exactly where all of the materials come from. New houses won’t hold many unpleasant surprises, such as weak foundations, or other damaged areas. Most of these modern houses are also far more eco-friendly, with future decoration being just as easy to make and do as you like. Buying new houses is also a great way to save money, and you may find its benefit with the price going up in the future.
    Some buildings, such as those that are rare or in certain areas, are of value over the years. Sometimes it is the history that draws more buyers into older houses. A famous person may have lived there, or an important event may have taken place in the house. This may not add any value to the house, but it can add to the attraction. There may be more repairs which will need to be done in the old houses,so before you think you’ve found a great bargain, be sure to get a careful inspection.
    There are those who prefer building from the ground up. Building your own house can be a very rewarding, tiring, and expensive experience. While people have many expectations of planning and building their own houses, one thing is sure: it will take a while. There are always difficulties during construction, so you always find the construction time will be longer than your plan, not to mention the budget. Time can add up as well as materials and costs. Building is a good choice for those who are able and qualified.
    小题1:In Paragraph 2, the writer mainly tells readers _____.
    A．How to choose a good new house.
    B．The benefits of buying a new house
    C．Things to consider when they buy a house.
    D．How to save money when they buy a new house.
    小题2:What does the writer suggest people do when they are buying an old house?
    A．Check whether the price is low
    B．Check whether it is a rare house
    C．Check carefully whether lots of repairs are needed
    D．Check whether a famous person has lived in it
    小题3:The writer seems to believe that building a house of one’s own is ____.
    A．easyB．costly
    C．interestingD．impossible
    小题4:What is the writer’s purpose in writing this passage?
    A．To encourage readers to build a house of their own
    B．To explain why it is hard to decide what house to buy
    C．To tell readers how to find a great bargain when they are buying a house
    D．To help readers make a better decision when they are buying a house

    Sports play an important role in British life. The most popular sport is football. Cricket is also popular in England, but is less important in the other home nations. Rugby union and rugby league are the other major team sports. Tennis is the most important sport for the two weeks of the Wimbledon Championships(温布尔登网球锦标赛)
    Football
    The modern global game of football developed from traditional British football games in the 19th century. Club football is organized separately in each of the home nations. English football has a league system which combines thousands of clubs. Scotland has a similar but smaller club football structure. The top level league in Wales is the league of Wales. In Northern Ireland the main league is the Irish Football League.
    Each season the most successful clubs from each of the home nations qualify for(使…具有…的资格) the two Europe wide club competitions organized by UEFA(欧足联), the UEFA Champions League and the UEFA Cup.
    Cricket
    Cricket was invented in England. It is regarded as England’s national summer game and it is probably the second most widely covered sport.
    There are eighteen professional country clubs, seventeen of them in England and one in Wales. Each summer the country clubs compete in the first class Country Championship, which consist of two leagues of nine teams and in which matches are played over four days.
    Rugby
    Like football, rugby union and rugby league both developed from traditional British football games in the 19th century. For much of the 20th century there was great antagonism between rugby leagues, which was a mainly working class game based in the industrial areas of northern England, and rugby union, which is a mainly middle class game in England, and is also popular in the other home nations.
    Tennis
    Tennis is yet another sport which originated in the United Kingdom and the governing body of the sport is the LTA(草地网球协会). However, no British man has won Wimbledon since 1936 and no British woman since 1977. The only British players of either sex to reach the world top 50 in recent years are Greg Rusedski, who learnt his tennis in Canada, and Tim Henman and Andrew Murray ,who did not pass through the LTA system either.
    小题1:What do we know about football?
    A．The top clubs represent the UK in the two Europe competitions.
    B．Football is a newly-invented game in England
    C．The top level league in England is the Irish Football League
    D．Club football is an organized union in the UK.
    小题2:From the passage we can learn      .
    A．There exist all professional county clubs in England.
    B．Rugby leagues was enjoyed by middle class
    C．Tennis is in the charge of LTA
    D．Greg Rusedski did not pass through the LTA system.
    小题3:The underlined “antagonisim” in the sixth paragraph probably means     .
    A．preferenceB．friendlinessC．similarityD．opposition
    小题4:From what can we read the passage?
    A．tour guidebookB．book review
    C．news reportD．news magzine
