(Text 10)
I like reading newspapers very much.I like to read at least two different newspapers every day.When I read newspapers, I don’t just look at the headlines.Instead，I read most of the interesting stories.I like the political news，the business news as well as the entertainment news.The only things I don’t usually read are the sports pages and the advertisements because I’m never interested in playing or watching all kinds of sports or games.And I find advertisements really boring.
I also like watching TV very much every day.I try to catch the local TV news each day，but I watch BBC TV channels too.There are four channels I can get news from.I like to watch Channel 14 for the news reporting，but I like the weather report on Channel 44 mainly because the reporter is not only good，she’s beautiful.When I say I am a news junkie，I’m not joking.When I travel to other countries，the first thing I do is look for an Englishlanguage newspaper.Then，I can relax by reading news in the newspapers or watching it on TV!

The next day we went there with Kavya’s brother Vijay.He said，“Shout loudly if you need me.” Kavya climbed into the water tank first and then she climbed down into the man’s house.I followed her.We were looking under a bed for the ball when we heard a noise.It was Vijay.“Mother is calling you，” he said in a low voice.
We hurried out taking the lost ball with us.Along with the ball was a surprise！But we had to leave the house quickly.When we reached Kavya’s house，the TV was on.It was news time.I couldn’t believe my ears when it said that 20 gold bars were stolen from a gold shop.They showed a picture of the gold bars，which were exactly like the one we had seen in the man’s house.
We told the story to Kavya’s mother right away，and she called the police.Soon the police caught the man.They found all the gold bars in his house.A few days later a policeman came to us and said，“Thank you for helping us catch the guy.Here is a bag for all of you.” When we opened it，it was full of storybooks and lovely toys.Standing beside us，Kavya’s mother was all smiles.

Clover，a threeyearold spirit bear，lives at the B．C.Wildlife Park near Kamloops，British Columbia，Canada.He lost his parents two years ago and was raised at a wildlife center.When he was set free into the wild，he broke into human camps looking for food.Wildlife experts (专家) tried to get him used to living on his own，but he continued to look for places where there were people.Finally the experts decided that he could not live in the wild.Since then，a total of $750,000 has been collected to create a habitat for Clover.
The habitat covers about three acres (英亩) of land and includes natural forest，two ponds connected by a small river and something else.It will add a platform and a walkway later this year so that people can see Clover and his habitat more closely.There will also be a center where people can learn more about spirit bears.Besides，a black bear will be moved into the habitat so Clover will not feel lonely.
Spirit bears are also called Kermode bears after Francis Kermode，who first studied them.Kermode discovered that a small number of black bears carry a gene (基因) for white fur.If a baby bear receives one of these genes from each parent，its fur will be a creamy white color.There are about 1,200 bears who carry the gene for white fur，but only about 200 white Kermode bears in the world.Kermode bears are found only in British Columbia.They live in the Great Bear Rainforest，an area that covers the mainland and islands along the coast of B．C.between Vancouver and Alaska.

In the early 1900s，you could treat yourself to a candy feast (盛宴) for just a few cents.Many sweets cost just one penny per piece.These days，there’s nothing you can buy for a penny.Few vendingmachines (自动售货机) accept them，and using them to pay for pretty much anything is just a_hassle.Do we really need pennies at all?
The US Mint，which makes coins，makes sure that Americans have enough coins to carry out their daily buying and selling.It now actually costs the Mint more than a penny to make a penny.There’s the cost of the metal—pennies are made of zinc and copper (锌和铜)．Then there are the costs of running the Mint，including paying the people who work there.Add it up，and making a single penny costs about two cents.
However，there’s a downside (不利) to the penniless life.Most prices would have to be changed to the next nearest nickel (a coin that is worth five cents) or whole number，so costs could go up.For example，if a store had to change the price of a pizza slice that costs $1.97，it might be more likely to charge $2.00 than $1.95 so you’d be paying three cents more than you used to.That might not sound bad.But those little extra costs would quickly add up.
Plus，a lot of Americans have deep feelings about the penny.Old and rare pennies are prized collectibles.And some love the penny because of who’s on it：the 16th President.Abraham Lincoln—one of the country’s most beloved leaders.A 2012 survey found that two thirds of adults want to keep the coin.
There’s an old saying：Every penny counts.Many charities，for instance，profit (获益) from pennies.Penny drives—campaigns that ask for donations of pennies—are often big successes.
So，what’s your opinion on the penny?
语篇解读 本文是议论文。文章讨论了美国的一分硬币是否应该被取消。
32．The underlined part “a hassle” in Paragraph 1 refers to something that________.
A．costs too much B．is difficult to do
C．can be acceptable D．is open to the public
解析： 词义猜测题。根据上文的nothing you can buy for a penny和Few vendingmachines accept them可知，几乎没有自动售货机接收一分硬币。因此想要用一分硬币购买东西是一件非常难的事情，故选B项。
答案： B
33．What do we know about the US penny from Paragraph 2?
A．It costs more than its face value to make.
B．The US Mint refuses to make it.
C．People use it more than before.
D．It is very easy to carry.
解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段的It now actually costs the Mint more than a penny to make a penny可知，制造一分硬币的成本已经超过了它的面值。
答案： A
34．Without pennies，a pound of beef costing $5.26 will most probably be priced at________.
A．$5.00 B．$5.20
C．$5.25 D．$5.30
解析： 推理判断题。根据第三段的Most prices would...go up及所列举例子可知，如果取消一分硬币，大多数价格都会被上调到最接近的五分币或整数。故5.26美元上涨为整数，即5.30美元。
答案： D
35．What’s the purpose of the text?
A．To educate. B．To entertain.
C.To discuss. D．To persuade.
解析： 写作目的题。本文作者通过分析一分硬币目前的处境及取消一分硬币可能带来的问题，进而探讨美国的一分硬币是否应该被取消。根据最后一段的提问what’s your opinion on the penny也可知本文写作目的是为了讨论一个问题。
答案： C

Dear editor，
I’m a student of Senior One in a middle school.I’m writing to you because I want humans to save the endangered tigers.It is said that there are only about 400 tigers left in our country.
As is known to us all，tigers are protected animals.But some people kill them in order to make money.Besides，too many trees have been cut down，destroying their habitats.So I think that the government should take necessary measures and pass laws to protect tigers and punish the hunters.
I do hope we all try our best to make our earth pleasant and peaceful，not only for the wildlife but also for our human beings.
Yours，
Li Ming

I like reading newspapers very much.I like to read at least two different newspapers every day.When I read newspapers, I don’t just look at the headlines.Instead，I read most of the interesting stories.I like the political news，the business news as well as the entertainment news.The only things I don’t usually read are the sports pages and the advertisements because I’m never interested in playing or watching all kinds of sports or games.And I find advertisements really boring.
I also like watching TV very much every day.I try to catch the local TV news each day，but I watch BBC TV channels too.There are four channels I can get news from.I like to watch Channel 14 for the news reporting，but I like the weather report on Channel 44 mainly because the reporter is not only good，she’s beautiful.When I say I am a news junkie，I’m not joking.When I travel to other countries，the first thing I do is look for an Englishlanguage newspaper.Then，I can relax by reading news in the newspapers or watching it on TV!

The next day we went there with Kavya’s brother Vijay.He said，“Shout loudly if you need me.” Kavya climbed into the water tank first and then she climbed down into the man’s house.I followed her.We were looking under a bed for the ball when we heard a noise.It was Vijay.“Mother is calling you，” he said in a low voice.
We hurried out taking the lost ball with us.Along with the ball was a surprise！But we had to leave the house quickly.When we reached Kavya’s house，the TV was on.It was news time.I couldn’t believe my ears when it said that 20 gold bars were stolen from a gold shop.They showed a picture of the gold bars，which were exactly like the one we had seen in the man’s house.
We told the story to Kavya’s mother right away，and she called the police.Soon the police caught the man.They found all the gold bars in his house.A few days later a policeman came to us and said，“Thank you for helping us catch the guy.Here is a bag for all of you.” When we opened it，it was full of storybooks and lovely toys.Standing beside us，Kavya’s mother was all smiles.

Clover，a threeyearold spirit bear，lives at the B．C.Wildlife Park near Kamloops，British Columbia，Canada.He lost his parents two years ago and was raised at a wildlife center.When he was set free into the wild，he broke into human camps looking for food.Wildlife experts (专家) tried to get him used to living on his own，but he continued to look for places where there were people.Finally the experts decided that he could not live in the wild.Since then，a total of $750,000 has been collected to create a habitat for Clover.
The habitat covers about three acres (英亩) of land and includes natural forest，two ponds connected by a small river and something else.It will add a platform and a walkway later this year so that people can see Clover and his habitat more closely.There will also be a center where people can learn more about spirit bears.Besides，a black bear will be moved into the habitat so Clover will not feel lonely.
Spirit bears are also called Kermode bears after Francis Kermode，who first studied them.Kermode discovered that a small number of black bears carry a gene (基因) for white fur.If a baby bear receives one of these genes from each parent，its fur will be a creamy white color.There are about 1,200 bears who carry the gene for white fur，but only about 200 white Kermode bears in the world.Kermode bears are found only in British Columbia.They live in the Great Bear Rainforest，an area that covers the mainland and islands along the coast of B．C.between Vancouver and Alaska.

答案： B

In the early 1900s，you could treat yourself to a candy feast (盛宴) for just a few cents.Many sweets cost just one penny per piece.These days，there’s nothing you can buy for a penny.Few vendingmachines (自动售货机) accept them，and using them to pay for pretty much anything is just a_hassle.Do we really need pennies at all?
The US Mint，which makes coins，makes sure that Americans have enough coins to carry out their daily buying and selling.It now actually costs the Mint more than a penny to make a penny.There’s the cost of the metal—pennies are made of zinc and copper (锌和铜)．Then there are the costs of running the Mint，including paying the people who work there.Add it up，and making a single penny costs about two cents.
However，there’s a downside (不利) to the penniless life.Most prices would have to be changed to the next nearest nickel (a coin that is worth five cents) or whole number，so costs could go up.For example，if a store had to change the price of a pizza slice that costs $1.97，it might be more likely to charge $2.00 than $1.95 so you’d be paying three cents more than you used to.That might not sound bad.But those little extra costs would quickly add up.
Plus，a lot of Americans have deep feelings about the penny.Old and rare pennies are prized collectibles.And some love the penny because of who’s on it：the 16th President.Abraham Lincoln—one of the country’s most beloved leaders.A 2012 survey found that two thirds of adults want to keep the coin.
There’s an old saying：Every penny counts.Many charities，for instance，profit (获益) from pennies.Penny drives—campaigns that ask for donations of pennies—are often big successes.
So，what’s your opinion on the penny?
语篇解读 本文是议论文。文章讨论了美国的一分硬币是否应该被取消。
32．The underlined part “a hassle” in Paragraph 1 refers to something that________.
A．costs too much B．is difficult to do
C．can be acceptable D．is open to the public
解析： 词义猜测题。根据上文的nothing you can buy for a penny和Few vendingmachines accept them可知，几乎没有自动售货机接收一分硬币。因此想要用一分硬币购买东西是一件非常难的事情，故选B项。
答案： B
33．What do we know about the US penny from Paragraph 2?
A．It costs more than its face value to make.
B．The US Mint refuses to make it.
C．People use it more than before.
D．It is very easy to carry.
解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段的It now actually costs the Mint more than a penny to make a penny可知，制造一分硬币的成本已经超过了它的面值。
答案： A
34．Without pennies，a pound of beef costing $5.26 will most probably be priced at________.
A．$5.00 B．$5.20
C．$5.25 D．$5.30
解析： 推理判断题。根据第三段的Most prices would...go up及所列举例子可知，如果取消一分硬币，大多数价格都会被上调到最接近的五分币或整数。故5.26美元上涨为整数，即5.30美元。
答案： D
35．What’s the purpose of the text?
A．To educate. B．To entertain.
C.To discuss. D．To persuade.
解析： 写作目的题。本文作者通过分析一分硬币目前的处境及取消一分硬币可能带来的问题，进而探讨美国的一分硬币是否应该被取消。根据最后一段的提问what’s your opinion on the penny也可知本文写作目的是为了讨论一个问题。
答案： C

The “freshman fifteen”
You may not have heard the words “freshman fifteen” before，but they are very important for students who are entering university.__36__“Fifteen” refers to fifteen pounds—the fifteen pounds added to a student’s weight in his or her first year.There are a number of reasons why firstyear university students put on weight，but it’s encouraging to know that freshmen don’t have to add these harmful fifteen pounds.
Mistakes choosing food
__37__Some students choose unhealthy food，because now their parents are not nearby to help them choose.Some students visit the kitchen many times while studying.Late at night，some students get unhealthy fast food such as French fries and chicken nuggets (鸡块) with soda to drink.
Eating right
__38__Here are some ideas：
•Think more about what you eat.
•Eat plenty of vegetables and healthy meats.
•Don’t eat desserts (甜食) full of sugar；have fruit after dinner.

Dear editor，
I’m a student of Senior One in a middle school.I’m writing to you because I want humans to save the endangered tigers.It is said that there are only about 400 tigers left in our country.
As is known to us all，tigers are protected animals.But some people kill them in order to make money.Besides，too many trees have been cut down，destroying their habitats.So I think that the government should take necessary measures and pass laws to protect tigers and punish the hunters.
I do hope we all try our best to make our earth pleasant and peaceful，not only for the wildlife but also for our human beings.
Yours，
Li Ming
