    The holiday’s upon us．After months of study, you have some time to yourself．So, why not read a book? Well, some people will say, “Why trouble with books? We have the Internet and other media（媒体）that offer a lot more colorful programs．Books are history!”
    But don’t be fooled．There’s still a lot to be said for reading-and reading as widely as possible．
    One clear reason is that a well-chosen _________is a wonderful collection of _______ and expressions, so long as you have a good dictionary, of course．Believe me, it’s far easier to get new English words and expressions from a book or article than it is from the TV or the Internet．
    But an even more important point is that books give you something that modern media simply can not. The webpage（网页）is always full of pictures and the text is often designed（设计） to make it as easy to read as possible．Though “easy” may be welcome, unluckily it’s of little use for any long-time development of reading skills and the general language level．For that, there’s still no substitute（替代品）for a book．
    But perhaps the best single reason is that simply choosing what you read and doing it by yourself means that it’s something you do by and for yourself．You can choose what you want to read．It’s hard work, but while you are reading, you’ll find that what once seemed like a duty is now a pleasure．Reading can bring us great pleasure.

    Taking away a city’s rubbish is a big job. Every day trucks come into a city to collect it. Most rubbish is made up of things we can’t eat or use. If we kept these things, we would soon have a mountain of rubbish.
    In some cities the rubbish is collected and taken outside of city to a dump. Often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole. The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces and sent into the sewage system. The sewage system takes away the used water from toilets, bathtubs and other places.
    To keep mice and flies away, some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish. Later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land. Finally , a house or a school may be built there, and then you’d never know that this had once been an old rubbish dump.
    In other cities the rubbish is burnt in special places. The fire burns everything but the metal. Sometimes the metal can be used again in factories where things are made of metal. The food parts of rubbish are put in special piles where they slowly change into something called humus, which looks like black earth. It is rich with kinds of things that feed plants and help make them grow.
    小题1:The underline word “sewage” in the passage means_______
    A．排污B．染色C．洗涤 D．洗尘

    A．to feed animalsB．to feed plantsC．to build a houseD．to make machines
    小题4:How should we take care of a used metal box according to the passage?
    A．By burning it offB．By putting it in water
    C．By throwing it awayD．By reusing and recycling it.

    “Mind your own business．” we’re told．“Don’t talk about others behind their backs．”The problem with this advice is that，not only is it unrealistic，it’s also counterproductive(起反作用的)．
    Common sense holds that gossip(流言蜚语)hurts people’s feelings and damages relationships．But recent research shows the opposite—that strong communities and relationships between people would be impossible without gossip．
    Gossip is a way for people to let you know the limits of social behavior．“If you move into a community and your neighbor tells you how the former homeowner never dealt with his rubbish properly，his gossip is letting you in on something，”says Dr．Ralph Rosnow of Temple University．“Gossip says：these are the boundaries and you are crossing them．You’re not abiding by the rules and you’d better get back in line．” Seen this way，gossip is a way to communicate criticism(批评)without conflict(冲突)，giving you a chance to change your behavior without losing face．
    On the other hand，what about ill-willed gossip，the kind that puts other people down? Gossip is hearing something we like about someone we don’t and，in nearly every country in the world，gossip magazines have huge numbers of readers．According to researchers，however，this kind of gossip also has a good side because it helps us put our own problems in perspective(正确地)．“If we read bad news about well-known people，or get the frightful details of our neighbors’ bad situation over a cup of coffee，our own problems begin to pale in comparison(对比)，”says Dr．Jack Levin of Northeastern University．
    However，that doesn’t mean that gossip is necessarily a good thing，either．Researchers found that people who gossip a lot tend to feel like they’re under a lot of stress．This might be because while they’re busy talking about other people，they’re also busy thinking what other people are saying about them．
    小题1:What is the purpose of the text?
    A．To encourage us to spread gossip about others．
    B．To prevent us from spreading gossip about others。
    C．To make a comparison between good gossip and bad gossip．
    D．To recognize certain positive functions of gossip．
    小题2:According to the passage，people in general think that__________．
    A．it’s a bad habit to gossip
    B．nobody pays attention to gossip
    C．not all the gossip you hear is worth believing
    D．it’s necessary to have a nice gossip with a friend or neighbor
    小题3:The underlined phrase “abiding by” in Paragraph 3 most probably means“________”．
    A．makingB．breakingC．obeyingD．changing
    小题4:It could be learned from the passage that__________.
    A．people under much stress enjoy gossiping about others.
    B．in a way gossip helps us deal with our own problems.
    C．in fact most people tend to believe gossip.
    D．the more there is gossip, the stronger relationships become between people.

    Anyone who has ever traveled with a teenager knows that the teenager can make the vacation good or bad for the entire family. As a travel agent, Lynda Maxwell said, “If teenagers are happy, everybody is happy.”
    Teenagers are often interested in travelling, but their interests and schedules often aren’t the same as their parents’. It means that when the parents start to look for a place of interest in the early morning, their teenagers may be sleeping soundly!
    The thing makes travelling with teenagers very difficult, but it isn’t impossible. The experts said, “The keys to success is what parents do before they travel.”
    For many families, the hardest part may be finding a vacation time that is right for everyone. Be sure to sit down with everyone else in the family before setting a date.
    “After setting a date, ask teenagers where they would choose to go,” suggested Maxwell. It is possible that they’d like nothing more than to sit on a beach for a week. “Maybe there’s a compromise(折中),” said Maxwell.
    “Most teenagers like using the Internet now, so parents can ask them to think up the ideas about what to see and do,” said Brad Anderson. “I find teenagers are excellent at making great suggestions.”
    小题1:The main problem of travelling with teenagers is that______.
    A．they are always causing problems
    B．there’s no way to make them happy
    C．they don’t want to travel with their parents
    D．their interests and schedules are different from their parents’
    小题2:Maxwell thinks that     .
    A．teenagers are good at making suggestions
    B．parents should discuss the travel plan with their teenagers
    C．parents should choose the places where teenagers like to go
    D．teenagers should try their best to make their parents happy
    小题3:Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
    A．Teenagers often have some great ideas of travelling.
    B．Teenagers always make their parents disappointed.
    C．Most parents often look for travel information online.
    D．Teenagers should learn how to get along with their parents.

    Did you know that a new weblog is being created each second? Many of these bloggers are teenagers. While their parents wrote in a diary to express their emotions, or shared their interests by spending time with friends, teens are now using blogs instead. In fact, in the US, one in every five school-aged teens has a blog. Most of these are just chatter, some are funny or clever, but a few have become Internet success.
    For example, Chloe Spencer’s blog ‘Neopets Fanatic’ gets around 300,000 hits per month. When Chloe was 15, she started the blog out of her strong liking for Neopets, a kind of pet website. One reason her blog has so many visitors is because she gives instructions and tips for the popular pet site.

    Then there is Tavi Gevinson’s blog ‘Style Rookie’. It is said to get 1.5 million hits per month. Tavi, who started her blog when she was just 12, puts up her photos of her own clothes online as well as designers’ collections. Tavi’s blog has caught on because she knows a lot about style for someone so young, and she is not afraid to try out unusual clothes or see things in a different way.
    Blogs like these are interesting, but they only become really popular after better-known websites link to them or they get noticed by the media(传媒). For example, Tavi’s blog became an overnight(一夜之间) success after being written about in The New York Times. Popular blogs can even earn money, usually from advertisements that companies pay to put up on the bloggers’ sites.
    So for some, blogging is just a recreation(消遣), but for others, it can become a source of income and even a full-time job!
    小题1: Teens nowadays ________ than their parents did.
    A．have more ways of communication
    B．share their feelings more
    C．write in diaries more often
    D．make more friends
    小题2: In line 4, the underlined word ‘chatter’ means talk about ________ topics.
    A．funnyB．cleverC．seriousD．unimportant
    小题3:Chloe Spencer and Tavi Gevinson are both ________.
    A．pet loversB．teenage bloggers
    C．interested in fashionD．keen on taking photos
    小题4: From the passage we know that Chloe Spencer is a person who ________.
    A．visits many websitesB．loves pets
    C．is easy to get angryD．rarely gives opinions
    小题5: According to paragraph 4, Tavi Gevinson’s blog ________.
    A．is not well-known yet
    B．is written every night
    C．became popular very quickly
    D．got a lot of money from advertising
    小题6:The best title for the passage might be ________.
    A．How to be good teen bloggers
