Little stream ran down from a high mountain through many villages and forests. Then it reached a desert. “I went through so many difficulties, I should have no problem crossing the desert,” she thought. As she started, she found herself slowly disappearing into the sand. After many tries, she still failed.
“Maybe I can't reach the ocean,” she said sadly to herself.
At this time, a deep voice said, “If a breeze(微风) can cross the desert, so can a river.” It was the voice of the desert. But the little stream answered, “That's because a breeze can fly but I cannot.”
“That's because you can't give up what you are. Let yourself evaporate(蒸发) into the breeze and it can take you across,” said the desert. “Give up what I am now? No! No!” The little stream could not accept this idea. “The breeze can carry the vapor(水蒸气) across the desert and let it leave as rain. The rain will form a river again,” said the desert, “And whether you're a river or vapor, your nature never changes.” Hearing this, the little stream went into the open arms of the breeze. It carried her to the next stage of her life.
The course of our lives is like the experience of the little stream. If you want to go through difficulties in your life to head for success, you should also change the way you are.
( ) 58. Where did the little stream aim to reach?
A. The ocean. B. The forest C. The desert. D. The river.
( ) 59. The little stream ________ before she got to the desert.

A. Because she failed many times.
B. Because she was afraid of the breeze.
C. Because she wasn't able to fly.
D. Because she wouldn't give up what she was.
( ) 61. The little stream finally crossed the desert by ________ .
A. evaporating into the breeze
B. forming a river
C. disappearing into the sand
D. changing her nature
( ) 62. What does the story mainly tell us?

C. To succeed, we change the way we are if necessary.
D. We may experience difficulty in life just like the little stream.

It is common to surf the Internet at home now. However, a recent survey showed over 90% of parents are not clear what websites their children visit. I strongly believe that a training project should be started to help parents to improve their internet and computer skills. Then they can better monitor and guide their children.
Providing training would get parents to pay more attention to their children's online activities. This is one advantage. If parents had a better understanding of the internet and websites, they would see the need to make sure that their children use it properly and responsibly.
Providing training to parents would allow parents to help their children with their school work as well. These days, some homework of online courses needs to be done on computer. If parents have poor computer skills, they will be of little or no help with the homework. That can make parents very upset. Some people argue that it is good that students can work independently on computers.However, it is clear that students, especially young students often need this kind of home support.
Improving parents' Internet and computer skills might also be a good way for parents to improve their relationships with their children. These days, children spend a lot of their free time on computers. If parents want to be a part of their free time, they need to see that playing on computers can be a fun family activity. Joining their children can help parents bridge the gap between them and their children.
Most people believe that children need to be helped and guided to use the Internet in a proper and responsible way. Therefore, training is extremely important.
( ) 63. What does the underlined word “monitor” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Trust. B. Guide. C. Watch. D. Serve.
( ) 64. What does the passage tell us?
A. Many parents seldom help their children design websites.
B. Many parents never tell their children how to surf the internet.
C. Many parents don't know what websites their children visit.
D. Many parents never limit their children's time on internet use.
( ) 65. In the passage, the writer ________.
A. advises children not to spend a lot of their free time on computers
B. thinks parents should improve their Internet and computer skills
C. tries to help children find online courses and finish the homework
D. explains why parents should pay more attention to their children
( ) 66. What does the underlined word “That” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Being helpless with the schoolwork B. There aren't enough online courses
C. There is no computer at home D. Giving their children too much stress
( ) 67. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
A.①//②③④⑤ B.①//②③//④⑤

You've probably heard many times how exercise is good for you. But do you know that there are two kinds of exercise?
Aerobic (有氧的) exercise
Like other muscles(肌肉), the heart enjoys a good workout. You can provide it with one in the form of aerobic exercise. Aerobic exercise is any kind of exercise that gets the heart working better. When you often give your heart this kind of workout, it will get stronger and better.
If you play team sports, you're probably meeting 60 minutes or more of physical activities on practice days. Some team sports that give you a great aerobic workout are basketball, soccer and football. But if you don't play team sports, don’t worry-there are lots of ways to get aerobic exercise on your own or with friends. These include biking, running, swimming, skating, and walking quickly. In fact, these kinds of exercise that you do on your own are easier to go on when you leave senior high school.
Strength training
The heart isn't that only muscle that can become better because of exercise: Most of the other muscles in your body enjoy exercise, too. When you use your muscles and they become stronger, you can be active for longer periods of time without getting worn out.
Strong muscles can help protect you when you exercise by helping to prevent injuries (伤害)。Muscles also burn more energy than fat when a person is at rest, so building up your muscles will
help you burn more calories (卡路里) and keep a healthy weight.


( ) 68.What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A. Aerobic exercise is only proper for strong people.
B. The longer you do aerobic exercise, the stronger you will be.
C. Doing aerobic exercise is good for our heart.
D. Only aerobic exercise can help you have a stronger heart.
( ) 69. The third paragraph mainly talks about ________.
A. how to make use of aerobic exercise in your daily life
B. the kinds of aerobic exercise we can choose
C. how long we can spend on aerobic exercise every day
D. the advantage of doing exercise alone or with others
( ) 70. In which ways does strength training help us?
① It can make us active all the time.② It makes us stronger.
③ It helps us keep a healthy weight.④ It prevents us from hurting ourselves.
A. ②③④ B. ①②③ C. ①②④ D. ①③④
( ) 71. What is the main difference between aerobic exercise and strength training according to the passage?
A. The people they are proper for. B. The time they take.
C. The amount of practice they require. D. Their purposes.
( ) 72. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Staying fit is important. B. Let's do exercise.
