Most heavy teens’ attempts1.(lose) don’t work, but a new study shows a big secret of those who do succeed.
They do it more2. their own sake rather than to impress their peers or please their parents.
“Most parents have the view that their teens are 3.(large) influenced by other people’s perceptions of them,” said Chad Jensen, 4. psychologist at Brigham Young University. “Our 5.(finding) suggest that teens have motivations that are more intrinsic. One implication is 6. parents should help to focus their teen on healthy behaviours for the sake of being healthy more than for social acceptance.
Jensen and his students at BYU looked in depth at the success stories of 40 formerly overweight teens. On average the participants shed 30 pounds, 7.(move) them from the obese to the normal weight category. They also maintained their healthier weight for a full year. More than 60 percent8. (describe) their health as the primary motive. About 43 percent identified peer acceptance as a factor.
In another interview, nearly all of the teens emphasized that it was their own9. (decide) to lose weight. According to teens, parents provided the most help simply by modeling healthy behaviours and 10.(provide) healthier options for meals and snacks.

In the town of Whitesburg, Kentucky, Mick Polly is known as the bike man. Over the past five years, Mick has built hundreds of bicycles for needy kids.
One day in 2011, a 13-year-old boy with a broken bike walked by Mick's house. "I was working in my garage, and he asked if I could fix it." says Mick, now 53. The boy left his bike with Mick, who asked friends on Facebook if they had the missing part. The town's former police chief saw the post and donated two used bicycles. Mick took parts from each to engineer a new set of wheels for the boy.
Soon after, Mick repaired a bike for the boy's brother and assembled one for his sister. Word spread, and within the year, he had fixed up dozens of bikes for local kids whose parents couldn't afford to buy new ones.
"The people in this town don't have much, but they'll do anything for the children." says Mick Polly. He stores the bikes and bike parts in his garage. "I take off the good tires or the handlebars or the seat and use them."
To date, the bike man has repaired hundreds of cycles and given away nearly 700 newly constructed bikes. They're free, but the kids must agree to two things: They've got to "mind whoever's raising them." and they've got to try in school.
If a kid's grades are low, Mick requires a teacher's note "saying that you're doing your best." Mick says.
Mick also hopes the bikes will get kids off the couch(沙发). "When I was growing up, we all rode our bikes," he says. "Hopefully these kids can get some exercise."
1.How did Mick build his bikes?
A. With the designs from Facebook.
B. With the parts bought from others.
C. With the broken parts collected from other garages.
D. With the good parts of the used bikes donated by others.
2.Which of the following can replace the underlined word "assembled" in the Paragraph 4?
A. Built. B. Sold.
C. Donated. D. Stored.
3.Which of the following can describe Mick Polly best?
A. Skillful. B. Popular.
C. Caring D. Enthusiastic.

On 29 May last year, I was doing my swim training for a half Ironman race in the bay near my home.
I was finishing my first loop (圈) when I felt jaws coming around my body and a sharp pain. The water was dark, so I couldn’t see anything. It just came out of nowhere and then it was gone in a flash. I knew it was something really big and assumed it was a shark. I panicked, but knew I needed to get out of the water. I was kicking wildly in case it came back. There was a lifeguard boat close by, so I waved my arms in the air and screamed for help. It got to me within 20 seconds. At that point I didn’t feel anything; adrenaline (肾上腺素) had taken over. The lifeguards held me under the arms and pulled me up out of the water. Then the pain kicked in and it was pretty hard to bear. Some muscle
had been bitten off my right arm. I felt a lot of warm, gushing blood.
My chest felt heavy, as if someone had put their foot on it, and I was having trouble breathing. It was extremely painful. When I got to the hospital, I told the nurses to put me to sleep because of the pain. I just wanted them to fix me.
I woke up after surgery four hours later. My doctor was amazed when I managed to move my fingers: the bite just missed a major nerve. My right lung had been damaged; I had several broken bones and a nerve in my leg was cut, so I have reduced feeling at the top of my leg. The shark also bit through my upper back muscle.
Local experts determined that the shark was probably 9-10 feet long. It was young, about seven years old. It just attacked me, left and didn’t come back because it figured I wasn’t food.
1.The writer mentions Adrenaline in Paragraph 2 to ________.
A. explain why she didn’t feel pain at that time
B. offer a possible reason the shark attacked her
C. show how dangerous the situation was then
D. describe the suffering a shark bite could cause
2.The writer of the text can be best described as ________.
A. grateful B. confident
C. tough D. aggressive
3.Which of the following might be the best title for the text?
A. A Shark from Nowhere
B. Surviving a Shark Attack
C. A Race against Time
D. No Panic over Sharks at Sea

Bendable wings covered with overlapping (重叠部分) pieces looking like fish scales could be used to build more controllable, fuel?efficient aircraft, a new study finds.
Nowadays, conventional aircraft typically rely on ailerons (副翼) to help control the way the planes tilt (倾斜) as they fly. However, when the Wright brothers flew the first airplane, Flyer 1, over a century ago, they used no ailerons but wires that pulled and stretched the wood?and?canvas wings, to control the plane.
“Scientists have long sought to develop aircraft that can change their wings during flight, just as birds can. However, most previous attempts have failed because they relied on heavy mechanical control structures within the wings. These structures were also complex and unreliable，” said Neil Gershenfeld, a physicist and director of the Centre for Bits and Atoms at MIT.
The new wing consists of a system of tiny, strong and lightweight modules (组件). The shape of the wing can be changed uniformly along its length using two small motors, which apply a twisting pressure to each wingtip. These wings are covered in “skins” of overlapping strips of flexible material like fish scales. These strips move across each other as the wings change themselves, providing a smooth outer surface, the researchers explained.
Wind tunnel tests of these wings showed that they at least matched the aerodynamic (气动) properties of conventional wings, at about one?tenth the weight. “Initial tests using remotely piloted aircraft made with these wings have shown great promise，” said Benjamin Jenett, a graduate student at the Centre for Bits and Atoms at MIT.
The 
new modular structures the scientists developed could be manufactured quickly in mass quantities and then installed by teams of small robots. These modular structures also can be disassembled more easily, making repairs simpler.
“Still, the first aircraft built using this strategy will not be a passenger jet，” Gershenfeld said. “Instead, the technology will likely first be tested on unmanned aircrafts, leading to aircrafts flying for a long time, to help deliver Internet access or medicine to remote villages.”
1.Why is the Wright brothers' airplane mentioned in the text?
A. To show the history of aircrafts.
B. To show the development of wings.
C. To show the need to improve planes.
D. To show the structure of conventional planes.
2.What makes planes fly like birds when they tilt?
A. Their ailerons. B. Wires and pulleys.
C. Changeable wings. D. Mechanical control structures.
3.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The shape of the new wings.
B. The purpose of the overlapping strips.
C. The working principle of the new wings.
D. The result of 
wind?tunnel tests of these wings.
4.What does the underlined word “disassemble” mean in Paragraph 6?
A. Replace. B. Analyze.
C. Put away. D. Take apart.

Most people say that they do not usually feel confident. But exciting things can happen when we actually believe in ourselves. Here is a man who believed in his own ability even as a boy, and that confidence helped shape his adult life.
At the turn of the last century, a young boy quit school to help with the family expenses. When he was fifteen, he became interested in automobiles(汽车) and worked in a garage. He subscribed to a correspondence course on automobiles and, after a long day in the garage, studied at the kitchen table in the lamplight.
When he felt ready, he walked into the Frayer-Miller Automobile Company of Columbus, Ohio. When Mr. Frayer noticed him, he asked, “Well, what do you want?”
“I just thought I’d tell you I’m coming to work here tomorrow morning,” the boy replied.
“Oh! Who hired you?”
“Nobody yet, but I’ll be on the job in the morning. If I’m not worth an
ything, you can fire me.”
Early the next morning the boy returned to the plant. Noticing the floor was thick with metal shavings and accumulated dirt, the boy got a broom and set out t
o clean the place.
Because of his self-confidence and work ethic, the boy’s future was predictable. He went on to stand out in many fields, including automobile racing, piloting World War I planes and founding one of America’s largest airline companies ---- Eastern Airlines.
People who become more confident habitually encourage themselves. Without confidence, we are not likely to move far in the direction of our dreams. It is important that we always believe in ourselves. In order to reach victory, we must believe in ourselves even when we make mistakes
1.How did the boy learn knowledge concerning automobiles?
A. He attended school in the daytime.
B. He studied hard at home.
C. He read books in the garage where he worked.
D. He turned to some instructors for help.

D. he believed in himself
3.Due to his efforts and confidence, the boy _____.

How fit are your teeth? Are you lazy about brushing them? Never fear: An inventor is on the case. An electric toothbrush senses how long and how well you brush, and it lets you track your performance on your phone.
The Kolibre
e toothbrush was exhibited at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week. It senses how it is moved and can send the information to an Android phone or iPhone via a Bluetooth wireless connection.
The toothbrush will be able to teach you to brush right (don’t forget the insides of the teeth!) and make sure you’re brushing long enough. “It’s kind of like having a doctor actually watch your brushing on a day-to-day basis,” says Thomas Serval, the French inventor.
The toothbrush will also be able to talk to other applications(应用) on your phone, so developers could, for example, create a game controlled by your toothbrush. You could score points for beating monsters(怪物) among your teeth. “We try to make it smart but also fun,” Serval says.
Serval says he was inspired by his experience as a father. He would come home from work and ask his kids if they had brushed their teeth. They said “yes,” but Serval would find their toothbrush heads dry. He decided he needed a brush that really told him how well his children brushed.
The company says the Kolibree will go on sale this summer, for $99 to $199, depending on features. The U.S. is the first target market.
Serval says that one day, it’ll be possible to replace the brush on the handle with a brushing unit that also has a camera. The camera can even examine holes in your teeth while you brush.
1.Which is one of the features of the Kolibree toothbrush?
A. It can sense how users brush their teeth.
B. It can track users’ school performance.
C. It can cause users’ fear of seeing a doctor.
D. It can help users find their phones.
2.What can we learn from Serval’s words in Paragraph 3?
A. You will find it enjoyable to see a doctor.
B. You should see your doctor on a day-to-day basis.
C. You can brush with the Kolibree as if guided by a doctor.
D. You’d like a doctor to watch you brush your teeth every day.
3.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. How Serval found out his kids lied to him.
B. Why Serval thought brushing teeth was necessary.
C. How Serval taught his kids to brush their teeth.
D. What inspired Serval to invent the toothbrush.
4.What can we learn about the future development of the Kolibree?
A. The brush handle will be removed.
B. A mobile phone will be built into it.
C. It will be used to fill holes in teeth.
D. It will be able to check users’ teeth.

A Dream Realized
Zhao Yang, 33, an employee of a French company in Beijing, who has traveled extensively in the United States by motorbike.
I have been addicted to Harley-Davidson motorcycles since I was young, and knowing that motorcycle-related culture is very popular in the US, I decided to take a trip. Along with my wife and a group of fellow enthusiasts, I participated in a 15-day tour in October last year. We had one free day, so I headed to Las Vegas.
Before arriving in the US, I researched a range of materials about riding a motorbike there. I also found some classic recommended routes on Chinese websites related to Harley Davidson clubs.
With the help of their suggestions, I designed my own route.
In accordance with the rules, before I left China I visited a notary office (公证机关), where my driving license was confirmed as acceptable in the US and my documents were translated into English. Only then did I buy my basic motorcycle equipment.
When we arrived at Las Vegas, we rented a Harley Davidson and rode around the city. It was an exciting, unforgettable experience, because it was not only the achievement of a dream, but I also experienced the regional motorcycle culture in the US
. As we parked the bike at the roadside, some drivers rolled down their car windows and gave us the thumbs-up, and when we drove on the road, car drivers pulled over to let us pass. We also visited a motorcycle-themed restaurant for lunch and enjoyed the fantastic decoration and delicious food.
I believe that traveling by motorcycle in the US will become popular because of the recent joint efforts to promote Sino-US tourism, especially after the two countries decided to name 2016 as US-China Tourism Year. This new style of traveling will attract more young Chinese tourists, and people like me, who have a passion for freedom and adventure, will visit the US more frequently. For example, I am planning to travel along the famous highway called Route 66 with friends during next year's Spring Festival.
If travel agencies and governments can promote the need for motorcyclists to obtain accurate information before they head to the US - such as the required documents, how to rent a motorbike and local traffic laws - "riding the range" will become a safe and great way to spend a vacation.
1.Zhao Yang’s childhood dream was to ______.
A. become a professional motorcyclist
B. travel in Harley-Davidson motorcycles
C. take a trip in the USA along with his wife
D. travel to work on a fashionable motorcycle
2.To prepare for the motorcycle trip in the USA, Zhao Yang ______.
A. made various research and checked his driving license
B. took the suggestions given and chose the classic route
C. joined one of the Harley Davidson clubs and got suggestions
D. took lots of health examinations and bought some equipment
3.How did Zhao Yang feel when driving in Las Vegas?
A. disturbed B. disappointed
C. depressed D. excited
4.Zhao Yang thinks that traveling by motorcycle in the US will ______.
A. enjoy much popularity with Sino-
US tourism
B. obtain less American fans in motorcycle travel
C. get less support from the modern motorcyclists
D. meet more challenge with the information gap
