    A reader from Manchester writes:

    Dear Julie,

    My question is ----What is Britain’s favourite sport? My dad says it’s football but I think he’s wrong. I think it’s tennis. Who is right?

        It’s not an easy question t o answer. Do you mean favourite sport for people to play （ participant sport）or for people to watch（ spectator sport）? The difference is important.

      Every year, four million people in Britain go fishing but every week, fifteen million watch football on TV.

       I telephoned the Sports Council in London and asked them the question.

       “It’s difficult to say which spectator sport is Britain’s favourite. There is football, of course, but the Tnnis Championships at Wimbledon are very popular, too and don’t forget the Olympic cricket and horse-racing.”

       So I can’t really answer the question about spectator sports.

       But the question about favourite participant sport is easy. The answer is  surprising. It isn’t football or tennis or any games with a ball. To give you a clue, it begins with “w”, it’s cheap , there ‘s no special equipment and everybody in Britain does it. The answer is walking. And the second favourite? Swimming.

    1．What is the story talking about?

    2．Is the question from Manchester to Julie?

    3．How many people in Britain watch football on TV every week?

    4．Where are the Tennis Championships held?

    5．What’s Britain’s favourite participant sport?

    1．Britain’s favorite sport.  

    2．No, it isn’t  

    3．Fifteen million people

    4．At Wimbledon

    5．Walking

A good reader may read at 1000 WPM when he looks for something for a report in the library. But once he finds he reads his science or math books at 150WPM. Just as a driver has a wide change of driving speed, so a good reader has a wide change of reading speed.

       What is an e–reader? An e–reader is a small computer. It can hold thousands 
    of e–books. So people want to throw away heavy schoolbags and read with small, light e–readers.
    For example, a US high school has put its paper books away. Teachers and students are using e–readers now. “It’s so convenient. You can have so many books right at your fingertips.” said Meghan Chenausky,16.
    Chinese schoolchildren are also trying e–readers. Hanvon WISEreader is the most popular e–reader in China. It weighs about 260g and is as big as a regular textbook. It is a special e–reader. Students can make notes on it. They can use it to download textbooks from school computers. It can also send and receive homework.
    New e–readers are not just for reading. They have WI-FI(无线网络) and multimedia(多媒体).Parents think these may hurt children’s study habits. “I think WI-FI is not necessary for kids.” says Zeng Wenwen,43, Beijing.
       根据短文内容，判断下列句了正误。正确为“T”，错误为“F”。并在答题卡上把“T”或“F”涂黑。
    【小题1】An e–reader can keep thousands of e–books.
    【小题2】An e–reader can help to make schoolbags lighter than before.
    【小题3】In every US school, e–readers are used instead of paper textbooks.
    【小题4】The passage mainly introduces the size of an e–reader.
    【小题5】A different opinion is against the WI-FI and multimedia of e–readers.
