Hundreds of years ago, life was harder than it is today. People didn't have modern machines.
Life today has brought new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution. Water pollution has made our
rivers and lakes dirty. It kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us talk louder and
become angry more easily. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution to all living things in the world.
Cars, planes and factories all pollute our air every day. Sometimes the polluted air is so thick that it is like a
quilt over a city. This kind of quilt is called smog.
Many countries are making rules to fight against pollution. Factories must now clean their water before it is
thrown away, and they mustn't let dirty smoke go into the air.
We need to do many other things. We can put waste things in the dustbin and do not throw them on the ground. We
can go to work by bus or with our friends in the same car. If there are fewer people driving, there will be less
pollution.
Rules are not enough. Every person must help to fight against pollution.

What time of day do you feel most alert(清醒的)? Are you more of a morning person? Or does your brain
need a few hours to get going? A lot of research suggests that we should pay attention to our body clock. It can tell
us what time of day we are best able to perform, according to the Wall Street Journal.
第2页/共8页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司When it comes to the human brain, many people work best later in the morning. This is because the body’s
temperature takes time to rise through the day. Taking a warm shower when you wake up can help speed this up.
But everyone’s body clock is different. Morning people will rise early and work better early in the day.
Evening people will wake later but their brain will work better toward the end of the day.
Research show that we’re better at some activities at certain times of the day. Physical performance is at its
best between 3pm and 6pm, so it’s better to exercise later in the day.
Between noon and 4 pm, people begin to get distracted (思想不集中的). This is partly because our brain
becomes less alert after we eat a big meal. Research also shows that we become sleepy around 2 pm.
Finally, it is best to eat during our active periods. This allows our body to burn calories better and stops our
blood sugar levels from getting too high.
8. Many people perform best later in the morning because ________.
A. they can’t get up very early.
B. they have to take a shower first.
C. the body’s temperature needs time to rise.
D. that’s when the brain wakes up.
9. Evening people had better ________.
.
A rise early and work in the morning.
B. wake later and work better in the evening.
C. rise late and work in the morning
D. wake later and work after midnight.
10. According to the research, which of the following is TRUE?
A. It’s better to do exercise in the afternoon.
B. We perform better after eating a big meal.
C. Sleeping at 2 pm is not good for our health.
D. Our body burns calories better at night.
11. What would be the best title for the story?
A. Research about time. B. The best time to do things.
C. Brain performance. D. Different periods of a day.
D
Hunger is the greatest motive for the inexperienced cook. But many people are now worried that we are producing
a generation without the slightest idea of how to cook—a generation that is frightened to cook. I have just received a
handout from Focus on Food, which is running a competition to get children back into the kitchen. Has television
cooking become a replacement for the real thing? Is this an age where famous professional cooks have turned cooking
第3页/共8页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司into a sort of show, with dishes far too difficult for the beginners to copy?
I decided to ask my oldest daughter, Miranda, for her opinion. Are children earning enough about the importance
of good cooking? Do they know cooking is a basic life skill? Sociology and other “new” subjects are all very well,
but without the ability to cook, or to understand the pleasure and principles of good food and its relationship to good
health, are we really preparing them for adult life?
Miranda started her cooking at the age of nine, when she decided to enter the Sainsbury’s Future Cook
competition. She was motivated by a different kind of greed: the first prize — a trip to Disney World.
The problem, from the parental point of view, was that if she made it through to the regional (区域性的) finals,
she would have to cook her meal in front of the judges. Some 30,000 children entered and she made it through as the
youngest regional finalist. Now she had to learn to cook. Her hands were not even big enough to hold the knife and
slice the onions. Six Saturdays running we ate the same lunch—Mozzarella meatballs in fresh tomato juice and
blueberry.
First, she cooked by my side, then alone with timings and instructions. Finally, she went alone against the clock.
The kitchen looked like a battlefield, but she had gained victory. The tiny be—capped figure then stood in an unknown
Bristol hotel, looking like a professional who had been at the stove for years. She didn’t win, but she came home with
£50 and the most valuable part of them all: confidence.
12. The competition run by Focus on Food is intended for ______.
A. children B. parents C. teachers D. chefs
13. Why does the writer think cooking is so important?
A. It is an easy way to keep healthy. B. It helps develop relationships.
C. It is a necessary skill for life. D. It can save a lot of money.
14. The writer’s family had the same lunch on six Saturdays because ______.
A. the family stuck to healthy food B. Miranda had to practice cooking
C. the dish was the family’s only food D. the dish was Miranda’s favorite meal
15. What did Miranda gain from the competition?
A. A trip to Disney World. B. Support from friends.
C. A medal for the winner. D. Belief in herself.

Once upon a time, a young girl whose name was Lily, lived in a small village in the heart of a forest. She was
known throughout the village for her kind heart. She spent her days helping her neighbors, taking care of the animals
and exploring the forests.
One day, as she was walking through the forest, she came across a small, injured bird lying on the ground. Its
wing was broken, and it looked up at her with painful eyes. Lily knew she had to help the bird, so she carefully picked
it up and put it in her arms.
She took the bird back to her house and dealt with its wounds. She fed it and gave it water, and soon the bird
was on the way to recovering (康复). As the days passed, Lily came to love the bird. But she knew it belonged to the
forest, so she helped the bird fly back to the forest.
Another day, Lily happened to see a group of children playing a joke on a young boy for his height, and the boy
seemed to cry. Seeing that, Lily realized she had to do something to help.
She walked to the group of children and asked them to stop laughing at the boy. They looked at her doubtfully,
but Lily seriously told them that it wasn’t kind to make fun of others. Finally, the children listened to her. They
stopped laughing at the boy and even apologized (道歉) to him. Lily smiled, feeling proud of herself for standing up
for what was right.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
As the years went by, Lily continued to spread kindness throughout the village.
