Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice 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 tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses (球场) in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.
There are many environment-friendly sport. 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 keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.
Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better replacements 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. And best of all, it’s free.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、 B、 C和D)中。选出最佳选项。
Doctors are known to be terrible pilots．They don't listen because they already know it all．I was lucky: I became a pilot in 1970, almost ten years before I graduated from medical school．I didn’t realize then, but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon．I loved flying．As I flew bigger, faster planes, and in worse weather, I learned about crew resource management (机组资源管理)，or CRM, a new idea to make flying safer．It means that crew members should listen and speak up for a good result, regardless of positions．
I first read about CRM in 1980．Not long after that, an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather．The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready．The attending doctor was flying; I was safety pilot, He was so busy because of the bad turn, he had forgotten to put the landing gear (起落架）down．He was a better pilot—and my boss—so it felt unusual to speak up．But I had to: Our lives were in danger．I put aside my uneasiness and said, “We need to put the landing gear down now!” That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM, and I’ve used it in the operating room ever since．
CRM requires that the pilot/surgeon encourage others to speak up．It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite, the doctor doesn't overreact, which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again．So when I'm in the operating room, I ask for ideas and help from others．Sometimes they’re not willing to speak up．But I hope that if I continue to encourage them, someday someone will keep me from "landing gear up"．
1.What does the author say about doctors in general?
A．They like flying by themselves．
B．They are unwilling to take advice．

3.In the last paragraph “landing gear up” probably means _______．
A．following flying requirements
B．overreacting to different opinions

4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

I was fairly new to this particular school since my parents only moved to the area. There was a boy, who, as it turned out, was an orphan and was living and working for a small farming family. He didn’t appear at first glance to ever be fully engaged(专注) in the school learning process；he would sit quietly, never seem to get any attention from the teacher, and would spend a lot of time staring out of the window just behind him.
Over the next few weeks, I got to know this boy while playing outside in the schoolyard playing baseball, or soccer. He was very athletic and very good at anything we played. I started to wonder why he didn’t seem to do well in school and why the teacher ignored him.
He told me he had been in several foster (收养) homes since he was a little boy and that most of his time in the last few years had always been on farms. He said he was made to work before he went to school and as soon as he got home until it was time for bed. He was never given a chance to go out and play, nor was he allowed to have any friends although he told me he really didn’t have any friends anyway, because he was an orphan and they did not want anything to do with him.
I had never before been acquainted with prejudice of any kind. Here was one characteristic of a human being who through no fault of his own carried a label that prevented him from even having friends as a child. His potential was also being ignored by the teacher. It wasn’t that he couldn’t learn, or didn’t want to — it was because he wasn’t encouraged or in some cases, allowed to.
We may all meet people through the years that we tend to apply labels (标签) to without really taking the time to get to know them, to discover their real potential because our vision is clouded by how we always put people into pigeon holes that we are used to or comfortable with.
1. What was the first impression that the boy gave the author?
A. He was a troublemaker in class.
B. He was not drawn into learning.
C. He often played outside in the schoolyard.
D. He tried to get his teacher’s attention.
2.The main idea of the third paragraph is .
A. how the boy became homeless
B. that the boy’s family was very poor
C. why the boy didn’t have any friends
D. who made the boy work day and night
3.The boy’s potential was ignored because .
A. He worked hard. B. He liked playing baseball..
C. He was athletic. D. He was an orphan.
4.What does “pigeon holes” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. specific categories B. a group of friends
C. special schools D. animals’ homes

The kids in a village in Ethiopia wear dirty, ragged clothes. They sleep beside cows and sheep in huts made of sticks and mud. They have no school. Yet they all can chant the English alphabet, and some can make words.
The key to their success: 20 tablet computers(平板电脑) dropped off in their Ethiopian village in February by a U.S. group called One Laptop Per Child.
The goal is to find out whether kids using today’s new technology can teach themselves to read in places where there are no schools or teachers. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers analyzing the project data say they’re already amazed. “What I think has already happened is that the kids have already learned more than they would have in one year of kindergarten,” said Matt Keller, who runs the Ethiopia program.
The fastest learner—and the first to turn on one of the tablets—is 8-year-old Kelbesa Negusse. The device’s camera was disabled to save memory, yet within weeks Kelbesa had figured out its workings and made the camera work. He called himself a lion, a marker of accomplishment in Ethiopia.
With his tablet, Kelbasa rearranged the letters HSROE into one of the many English animal names he knows. Then he spelled words on his own. “Seven months ago he didn’t know any English. That’s unbelievable,” said Keller.
The project aims to get kids to a stage called “deep reading,” where they can read to learn. It won’t be in Amharic, Ethiopia’s first language, but in English, which is widely seen as the ticket to higher paying jobs.
1.How does the Ethiopia program benefit the kids in the village?
A. It trains teachers for them.
B. It helps their self-study.
C. It raises their living standards.
D. It provides funds for building schools.
2.What can we infer from Keller's words in Paragraph 3?
A. They need more time to analyze data.
B. More children are needed for the research.
C. He is confident about the future of the project.
D. The research should be carried out in kindergartens.
3.What is the aim of the project?
A. To offer Ethiopians higher paying jobs.
B. To make Amharic widely used in the world.
C. To assist Ethiopians in learning their first language.
D. To help Ethiopian kids read to learn in English.

Asia has long tradition of tea- drinking. And China is no exception.
However, lately more and more Chinese people are turning to a different drink. Coffee has become an increasingly popular choice of Chinese people living abroad and in the country's huge cities. It is also a popular crop among those living in the mountains of southern Yunnan Province.
In big cities such as Beijing, coffee shops seem to be on nearly every major street corner. These shops are not just selling drinks from Starbucks, the world-famous coffee company. Coffee businesses from South Korea, Taiwan, HongKong and Britain are also operating in China.
Tea-drinking is steeped in the culture and traditions of many countries, like China and Japan. But is that changing? Are young people from Asia now choosing a cup of coffee instead of tea?
BeiBei Su is from China. She has been living in the United States for the past eight years. Before that, she lived in Italy for two years. Ms. Su says she likes tea better than coffee. But she adds that may not be true among the young generation in China. Many young Chinese people drink coffee socially --when meeting with friends. Yang Lin lives in the U.S. but comes from an area in China famous for growing tea. She used to only drink tea while in China. But now, she says, she drinks both and for different reasons.
Yang Lin says that drinking coffee for her is a social event. She and her co-workers like to sit in a cafe and talk over a cup of coffee. Voyo is another Chinese woman who now lives in Washington, D.C. She says that after moving to the U.S. Her tastes changed. We would call her a coffee convert, someone who now chooses to drink coffee.
With more people drinking coffee, many see an economic（经济的）opportunity for Chinese -grown beans. China-grown coffee could be a money- maker even if most of the coffee on sale in China is imported.
1.What does the author mainly introduce?
A. Chinese people have long tradition of tea-drinking.
B. More and more Chinese are choosing coffee to drink
C. People in big cities like drinking coffee better than tea.
D. More Asian people are turning to different drinks.
2.The underlined word “convert” in paragraph6 means _________.
A. A person who has changed to drink coffee.
B. A person who has changed to drink tea.
C. A person who has changed to grow tea.
D. A person who has changed to grow coffee.
3.Why does YangLin drink coffee?
A. Because she lives in the U.S. Now.
B. Because she can talk with friends.
C. Because she has drunk tea so long.
D. Because her tastes has changed.
4.From the last paragraph, we can infer that _____
A. less and less coffee will be imported in China in the future.
B. the China-grown coffee beans will be sold to the world soon.
C. the need of coffee will offer more chances to make money.
D. Chinese economy will depend on coffee beans in the future.

As is known, that it is interesting to teach child to swim while they are still babies. Most large towns in Florida and California had already run particularly lessons for babies. The idea has quickly spread to Europe which, in several countries, special courses are now offered children who are from 7 to 24 months old. The first step is to have the child get rid of the fear with water. Next, he is teaching to float in water. Unless he can do that naturally and can swim without fear, the child can master the technique and push him forward through water.
