Schools across the world are trying to come up with solutions to keep students active. Some are replacing traditional classroom chairs with exercise balls or standing desks. At Ward Elementary School in Winston, North Carolina students have adopted a new program that requires riding fixed bikes while reading.
‘Read and Ride’ is the creation of school counselor Scott Ertl, who came up with the idea while he was exercising and reading at the gym. Believing it would be a fun way to convince students to become more active, he placed one in the corner of his classroom and encouraged them to use it during independent reading classes.
It was so popular that Ertl decided to add more bikes and offer the Read and Ride program to the entire school. Today Ward Elementary has a dedicated exercise room filled with bikes that can be used by students while completing their daily reading assignments.
Besides making reading more fun, the program also helps students exercise at a comfortable pace without the pressure that comes with regular sports-related activities. It is also a perfect way to release energy during days when the weather is not helpful to outdoor activities.
Most importantly, however, are the program’s academic benefits. A year after Read and Ride was introduced at Ward Elementary School, students actively involved in the program demonstrated an astonishing 83% reading proficiency. Those that had not taken advantage of the exercise bikes tested at a much lower, 41%.
Though the substantial improvement in academic achievement cannot all be attributed to programs like Read and Ride, experts believe they are a significant contributor. That’s because studies have shown that physical activity stimulates(刺激) brain cells and helps prepare it for learning. As word of the difference made by this easy to execute exercise program spreads, don’t be surprised to find schools across the country adopt “Read and Ride” for their students.
24. What is the new program at Ward Elementary School?
A. Kids ride bikes as they read.
B. Kids excise balls and read at the gym.
C. Kids sit at desks for long while reading.
D. Kids do outdoor activities during lessons.
25. How do the students at Ward Elementary School benefit from the program?
A. They exercise with high pressure.
B. They feel reading fun and learn better.
C. They improve their sense of competition.
D. They are instructed to read at the same pace.
26. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. The program will be more and more popular.
B. Schools doubt whether the program is available.
C. Physical activities prevent kids from learning more.
D. The school achievement depends wholly on the program.
27. What would be the best title of the passage?
A. Standing desks help school kids focus on their studies.
B. Traditional teaching should be banned in the near future.
C. ‘Read And Ride’ aims to make students healthier and smarter.
D. Kids need release energy during independent reading classes.

Something I enjoy doing most in my leisure time is going to the cinema to watch a great film. It's two hours of relaxation and escapism from real life. But when I kick back in my seat to enjoy the film and tuck into my box of popcorn, I'm often irritated by seeing someone next to me texting on their mobile phone or worse still, talking to someone.
It's no surprise that a proposal by a US cinema chain to let people use their phones during some film screenings was met with such anger, that the company had to withdraw the idea. People said it was 'the worst idea ever'! Surely, going to watch the latest film is just that – watching not multi-screening. And if you're out with a friend it seems very antisocial or just rude. I certainly get distracted by the click-click on someone's mobile keyboard as they text and the glow of the bright small phone screen – why aren't they concentrating on the big screen?!
But with the availability of streaming films at home and cheap DVDs, cinemas are struggling to keep their customers. Some places now offer comfortable seats with complimentary snacks and drinks so maybe trying to attract a younger audience by allowing the use of mobile phones is the way forward? A survey in 2012 found that a majority of 18-to-34-year-olds believed using social media while watching a movie would add to their experience.
However, not every young person wants to multi-task at the movies. Many of us still get annoyed by the theatre staff who appear not to do anything about it. Of course, we could ask the offenders to turn their phones off but as Adam Aron, head of AMC Entertainment, said in Variety magazine, “when you tell a 22-year-old to turn off the phone, don't ruin the movie, they hear ‘please cut off your left arm above the elbow’.” Clearly this is not what I would like to see but if you want to use your mobile phone in the cinema that I’m at, please don’t sit next to me! What do you think is the right thing to do?
28. The underline word “irritated” in Paragraph 1 means _________.
A. terrified B. depressed C. annoyed D. embarrassed
29. Which of the following is True of the US cinema chain’s original advice?
A. The advice was carried out smoothly.
B. They permitted people to use the phone.
C. The advice was very popular with people.
D. They prohibited people to use the phone.
30. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?
A. Young people use their social media frequently.
B. The cinema needn’t worry about their customers.
C. People prefer to watch films and DVD at home.
D. Sending messages is the best experience for young people.
31. What is the author’s attitude towards multi-task at the movies?
A. Sympathy. B. Encouragement. C. Enthusiasm. D. Disapproval.
D
In general, people talk about two groups of colors: warm colors and cool colors. The warm colors are red, orange, and yellow. Where there are warm colors and a lot of light, people usually want to be active. The cool colors are green, blue, and violet. These colors, unlike warm colors, are relaxing. Where there are cool colors, people are usually quiet. People who like to spend time alone often prefer blue.
Red may be exciting, but one researcher says that time seems to pass more slowly in a room with warm colors than in a room with cool colors. He suggests that a warm color, such as red or orange, is a good color for a living room or restaurant. People who are relaxing or eating, do not want time to pass quickly. Cool colors are better for offices or factories if the people who are working there want time to pass quickly.
Perhaps warm colors remind people of warm days and the cool colors remind them of cool days. People associate colors with different objects, feelings, and holidays. People say red is an exciting and active color. They associate red with a strong feeling like anger. Red is used for signs of danger, such as STOP signs and fire engines. The holiday which is associated with red is Valentine’s Day. Orange is the bright, warm color of leaves in autumn. People say orange is a lively, energetic color. They associate orange with happiness. The holidays which are associated with orange are Halloween in October and Thanksgiving Day in November. White is the color of snow. People describe white as a pure, clean color. They associate white with a bright clean feeling. On the other hand, black is the color of night. People wear black clothes at serious or formal ceremonies. Yellow is the color of sunlight. People say it is a cheerful and lively color. Green is the cool color of grass in spring. People say it is a refreshing and relaxing color. Machines in factories are usually painted light green. Blue is the color of the sky, water, and ice. Police and Navy uniforms are blue. When people are sad, they say “I feel blue.” They associate blue with feelings like unhappiness and fear.
If two objects are the same except for color, they will look different. Color can make an object look nearer or farther, larger or smaller. Bright objects look larger than dark objects. In conclusion, color is very important to people. Warm and cool colors affect how people feel. People choose products by color. Moreover, color affects how an object looks. It is even possible that your favorite color tells a lot about you.
32. The people who prefer warm colors usually are ________.
A. quiet B. energetic C. angry D. relaxing
33. The fact that one family paints the living room a sunny yellow suggests ________.
A. people want to be quiet
B. people want to sleep slowly
C. people want time to pass more slowly
D. people associate colors with holidays
34. Why do doctors and nurses normally wear white uniforms?
A. Because white means pure and clean.
B. Because white means serious or formal.
C. Because they like the colour of snow.
D. Because they like wearing uniforms.
35. We may learn from the text that fat people who want to look slimmer should wear________ clothes.
A. blue B. dark C. white D. yellow
第二節(jié)(共5小題;每小題2分,滿分10 分)
根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。
How to Sleep Better
If you’re having trouble getting good sleep through the night (turning, waking up more than once, for example), this text will tell you what you can do to ensure a peaceful night’s sleep.
1. Get on schedule. Changing your sleeping time by more than an hour can severely disturb your sleep quality. 36 For example, if you normally wake up at 6 am on weekdays to get to work, you might go to bed around 10 pm, because that’s when you start to feel sleepy, and it’s also a good time to ensure 8 hours of sleep. If, on the weekend, you sleep until 9 am, you probably won’t be able to fall asleep that night until 1 am.
2. Be mindful of what you eat or drink before bed. 37 Digestion slows down while asleep, and a full stomach may interrupt sleep. Similarly, you should avoid going to bed on an empty stomach, as a completely empty stomach may equally disturb your sleeping patterns.
3. 38 Exposure to light during the time when you’re supposed to be sleeping can destroy your body’s internal clock. Turn your light off, or use a very dim(暗淡的) night light. 39 They include windows, LED clocks and computer lights.
4. Change your sleeping position. You may think that it’s impossible to control what position you sleep in since you aren’t fully aware of what you are doing,but it is possible and it can make a considerable difference. 40
A. Try to avoid all sources of light.
B. Keep the room as dark as possible.
C. Make note of unusual circumstances.
D. Wait at least three hours after dinner before going to sleep.
E. Sleep is considered to be adequate only when there is no daytime sleepiness.
F. In other words, sudden change of sleeping time will affect your “biological clock”.
G. If you wake up in the middle of the night, make an effort to have a comfortable position.

A Professor began his class by holding up a glass with some water in it. He held it up for all to 41 and asked the students “How much do you think this glass 42 ?”
“50gms!” “100gms!” “125gms” the students answered..
“I really don’t know 43 I weigh it,” said the professor, “but, my question is: What would happen if I held it up like this for a 44 minutes?””
“Nothing” the students said..
“Ok, what would happen if I held it up like this for an hour?” the professor asked.
“Your arm would begin to 45 ” said one of the students.

“Your arm could 46 numb; you might have severe 47 stress and paralysis and have to go to 48 for sure!” ventured another student and all the students laughed.
“Very good. But during all this, did the weight of the glass 49?” asked the professor.

Breaking up large classes into several smaller ones 61 (help) students, but the improvements in many cases come whatever teachers do, a new research suggests.
New 62 (finding) of the research from four nations, tell an interesting story. Small classes work for children, but that’s 63 because of how teachers teach, but because of what students feel they can do: get 64 (much) face time with their teachers, for instance, or work in small groups with classmates.
“These are the same as what researchers have already known,” Gamoran says. There is no good evidence 65 teachers change their instructions based on changes in class size. Teachers are always strict with their students. Some teachers are making use 66 small classes and others are not. There are a lot of differences. “It’s not like that you reduce classes so teachers do something different and the achievement is higher,” he says.
In one study, researchers 67 (close) watched students’ behaviours and found that students behaved better in smaller classes. They also 68 (have) more direct communication with teachers and worked more in small groups rather by themselves.
One team, 69 (lead) by Ronald Ehrenberg of Cornell University, finds that the potential benefits of class-size reduction “may be greater than what we observed” if only a few teachers change their teaching 70 (fit) the smaller group.

Thanks very much for your letter. I’d like to describe my sports dance lessons, which I recent took for the first time.
Every lesson starts a warm-up and different exercises. We stretch our muscles to prevent injuries or build up stronger muscles, too. After the warm-up, our teacher always teaches us the steps we have to dance. For a better understand, we dance these steps without music.
To dance for three hours without any break sounds very difficulty but if you enjoy dancing, you’ll get used to them. I really love sports dance because I can become very fit while having a fun. Although I have only spent a short times dancing, I feel much healthier and even a little thin now.
Did you go in for any sports?
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
