Three Things to Do Before You Are 18
Are you bored with your daily life?Here are some things you should try before you are 18,
because after that it's too late.
★Learn to swim
Seriously, this is so important that it can save your life. If you can't swim well, you won't be
able to do water sports like waterskiing, surfing and diving. Even taking a boat trip will be
dangerous for you. Make sure you do it.
★Try at least one kind of team sports
Being a good team player is an important skill in life. You can't just think of yourself, but
have to work well with other people. Other advantages of team sports like basketball, football
and baseball are that they keep you fit and healthy, and they are also great fun. Teams usually
have a good social life too—you'll go to lots of parties and make many friends.
★Collect something
One of the best hobbies for under-18s is collecting things. You could collect kinds of stamps,
or you could collect things that make you remember what you have done, like cinema tickets
for films you have seen or emails from friends. The best way to collect is to have a special
album to put your collection in and to write what each thing means to you. That way youwon't forget.

B
You can see a sea turtle named Herman, an octopus(章鱼)called Octavia, and a seal
named Lidia at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo in Washington D.C.Rather than real
animals, they are actually artworks made out of plastic rubbish from the ocean.
These artworks are part of a traveling exhibition called “Washed Ashore: Art to Save the
Sea”. The Washed Ashore project, led by the artist called Pozzi, works to raise attention about
plastic pollution in oceans.
More than 315 billion pounds of plastic litter the world’s oceans today. Most of the
plastic is rubbish from towns and cities, as well as rubbish that people leave on beaches.
Rainwater, winds, and high tides bring the trash into the ocean or into rivers that lead to the
ocean. Once it is under the waves(浪), the plastic begins to break up into smaller and
smaller pieces.Thousands of sea animals die each year from eating plastic bags and other things. Each
year, millions more pounds of plastic end up in the ocean. A recent study found that if that
continues, by 2050 the total weight of plastic will be more than that of all the fish in the
ocean.
The Washed Ashore project is working to stop that from happening. Since 2010, Washed
Ashore volunteers have collected 38,000 pounds of plastic trash from more than 300 miles of
beaches. They helped Pozzi create more than 60 artworks of sea creatures(生物)harmed
by plastic pollution.
“These artworks are a powerful warning of our personal role and global responsibility in
preserving biodiversity(生物多样性)on land and in the sea,” says Dennis Kelly, director
of the National Zoo.
36.What is the purpose of the artworks shown at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo?
A.To let people know about animals in the ocean.
B.To introduce one way of recycling plastic trash.
C.To warn people of plastic pollution in the ocean.
D.To show Pozzi’s great gift for creating artworks.
37.According to the passage, what is the source of plastic pollution in the ocean?
A.Rubbish from towns and cities. B.Rubbish left on beaches by people.
C.Plastic bags broken up by waves. D.Litter created by human activities.
38.The data in Paragraph 5 is given to prove that________.
A.plastic pollution will be less serious in the ocean
B.more and more artworks of sea creatures will be made
C.the Washed Ashore project has made great achievements
D.volunteers can solve the ocean pollution successfully by 2050
39.What’s Dennis Kelly’s attitude towards the artworks?
A.Worried. B.Active. C.Against. D.Not caring.
40.What would be the best title for the text?
A.Stopping Environmental Pollution B.Working for Washed Ashore
C.Collecting Plastic Trash D.Turning Rubbish into Art

We spend hours, days and years of our lives in education. But how perfect do you think
your school is? Imagine you could design(设计) your ideal(理想的) school. What would it be
like? We wanted to find out what teenagers around the world thought. Here is some designingfrom four children of different countries.
Ma, China
My dream school would have an Olympicsize swimming pool, two football pitches and
a golf course. It would also have a cinema, a gym, a restaurant and a shopping centre. My
school has none of these and I think there should be more enjoyable things for pupils to do
while they are studying.
Sonia, Italy
I'd like a room where we can go and relax and play computer games and chat with
friends. Some older pupils in the school have this but I think there should be a place for
everyone to go when they want to switch off (转换注意力) from the lessons.
Richard, USA
I think it would be great to have a day off every week, as well as the weekend. If that
day was a Friday or a Monday, we would have a long weekend every week. What fun! I also
think school should start later, at about 10 o'clock, and finish earlier. We spend a lot of time at
school doing nothing at all. I'm sure we could learn just as much in fewer hours.
Rebecca, Australia
My dream school would be big and roomy with a computer for every person in the
school. I'd also like to have a music room where we can just go and play instruments when
we want. We need a recording studio, too. I hope that teachers can respect(尊重) our
opinions.
41.Ma thinks his dream school should provide ________ for students.
A.more enjoyable things B.a comfortable computer room C.a place to switch
off from the lessons
42.Sonia thinks students should share a room where they can ________.

45.We can infer(推断) that in the four children's opinion, the ideal school should be a place
where ________.
A.students can learn more knowledge
B.students can get on well with their teachersC.students' wishes and interests can be respected
D
A principal decided to honor the teachers in his school to show his appreciation (感激)
for their hard work. He told them how they made a difference in their jobs. Then he gave each
of them a blue ribbon (锻带) that read, “Who I Am Makes A Difference.”
One of the teachers wanted to take this idea into her students. One day, the teacher
noticed that a boy in her class was unhappy. She went to him and asked him the reason. The
boy told her that his father had been worrying about the job and often punished him for some
little things. Hearing what he said, the teacher decided to give him the ribbon to cheer him up.
She said, “Dear boy, what your father has done doesn’t mean the lack (缺少) of love for you.
He needs your understanding. You’ve been a kind boy. Here’s a ribbon for you. Would you
like to take this ribbon and pass it on? Let’s keep this ceremony going and find out how it
affects people.”
That night the boy sat beside his father and said, “Dad, today my teacher gave me a blue
ribbon for being kind and asked me to find somebody else to honor. I’d like to give the ribbon
to you. I want to let you know how deeply I admire you and how much you mean to me. I
love you!” The father was very surprised, and he was moved as well. He looked at his son
through his tears and said, “I almost lost my confidence in my job. But with your
encouragement and love, I regain my confidence. Thank you, my son. I love you, too. ”
判断文后各小题的正(A)误(B)
46.None of the teachers took the principal’s idea into their students.
47.The teacher gave the ribbon to that boy because she wanted to cheer him up.
48.With the teacher’s help, the boy showed his admiration and love for his father.
