The World  Health Organization(WHO)  says there has been a sharp increase in the number of children in developing countries who weigh too much.  In African countries, the WHO says the number of overweight or obese children is two times as  high  as it was 20 years ago.
Around the world, about 43 million children under the age of five were overweight in 2011. Doctors use height, weight and age to measure whether a person is underweight, normal, or obese.                              
Overweight children are more likely to become overweight or obese adults.  The condition can lead to serious health problems like diabetes, heart disease and stroke.
Francesco Branca , director of the WHO Department of Nutrition for Health and Development, says people are eating manufactured or processed food more often, which often has a high sugar. fat and salt content.  Another reason of gaining weight is the city lifestyle.  They travel in cars or other vehicles more than on foot, and have less physical activities in general.
Mr Branca says reducing the number of overweight children will not be easy.  He says the goal is difficult to meet even in wealthy countries.
The WHO has some basic solutions for individuals(個(gè)人) : to lower your in-take of fat ,sugar, salt and processed food, eat more fruit and vegetables, and increase physical activity .These actions are especially important for children and governments should concern providing vitamin for children .
Reducing the number of overweight children will not be easy.  The goal is difficult to meet even in wealthy countries. Educational campaigns about problems linked to obesity would also help. Food manufactures must balance quality and taste with the dangers of sugar, fat and salt.
The current goal of the WHO's World Health Assembly is to prevent an increase in the percentage of overweight children during the next twelve years.

[1]Your vocabulary refers to the words in a language you are familiar with.Your active vocabulary contains the words you understand and use in speech and in print,and your passive vocabulary includes the words you do not use but understand.Although children learn more new words than adults,the vocabulary of an adult is not fixed and can be increased.Improve your language skills with daily exposure to new words,their pronunciations and meanings.
[2].The more often you read,the faster your vocabulary can grow.Choose reading material that is slightly above your level and keep a dictionary with you to look up words you do not know.
[3]Find a new word every day.If you do not encounter an unfamiliar word in your daily reading,use your dictionary to search for one.
[4]Learn the correct definition and pronunciation for each new word you encounter.Pronunciation is as important as definition because in order to add a word to your active vocabulary,you must be able to use it in speech.
[5]Explain the meaning of the word so that you can connect it to something memorable.Use imagery and personal relevance(關(guān)聯(lián)).If you have just learned that the word“obstinate”means stubborn and unyielding,think about the neighbor who will not lend you his car.Imagine him shaking his head,and think of him as obstinate in his refusal.
[6]Use your new word in speech and in writing.Tell a friend about your boss obstinately refusing to reschedule your vacation time.E-mail your sister about how your cat is obstinate about sleeping on your pillow.The first time you use a new word in speech it may seem clumsy and forced,but the more you use it,the more fluent you will become in its use.Soon it will be a regular part of your active vocabulary.
[7]Tell everyone you are trying to increase your vocabulary.Encourage them to ask you what your latest word is,or to ask for the definition of a new word you have used.The more you explain the meaning of a word to someone,the more likely you are to remember it.

Ugly, a male cat, loved three things in this world: fighting, eating garbage, and, shall we say, love. To start with, he had only one eye and where the other should have been was a big hole. He was also missing his ear on the same side, and his left foot appeared to have been badly broken at one time, making him look like he was always turning the corner. Every time someone saw Ugly there was the same reaction.“That’s one UGLY cat!”So, all the children were warned not to touch him. The adults threw rocks at him. Whenever he was treated badly, he would curl his thin body around feet in forgiveness or begged for love.
One day Ugly shared his love with the neighbor’s dog. The dog's owner did not respond kindly. From my apartment I could hear his screams, and I tried to rush to his aid. By the time I got to where he was lying, it was apparent Ugly’s sad life was almost at an end. As I picked him up and tried to carry him home, I could hear his heavy breath, and could feel him struggling. It must be hurting him terribly.
However, Ugly, in so much pain, suffering and obviously dying, was trying to get closer to me. He turned his one golden eye towards me, and even in the greatest pain Ugly was asking only for a little affection. At that time I thought Ugly was the most beautiful, loving creature I had ever seen. Never once did he try to bite or scratch me, or even try to get away from me. Ugly just looked up at me completely trusting in me to relieve his pain.
Ugly died in my arms before I could get inside, but I sat and held him for a long time afterwards. Ugly taught me more about giving and compassion than a thousand books, lectures, or talk show specials ever could, and for that I will always be thankful. It is time for me to learn to love truly and deeply.
小題1:What reaction did people have when they saw Ugly? (No more than 8 words ) (2 marks)
小題2:Why did the author try to rush to help him? (No more than 5 words) (2 marks)
小題3:What did the author think about the cat when it suffered from much pain?

For many the idea of your dream home is not buying a bigger home,but a home that you have built by yourself. A house that is unique and fit for your tastes and your lifestyle. It sounds great but where do you begin to design your dream home? Here is a quick guide that can help you make your dreams come true.
The first step is to get an idea of what type of home you want. You can get inspiration from others. Drive around to neighbourhoods that have the styles of homes you like and take pictures. You can also cut out pictures from magazines, newspapers, or print out pictures you find on the Internet.
The next step will be to make two lists of items for yourself. The first list will be those items or features that you feel your new home must have,such as granite counter tops or a hot water heater. The second list will be those items or features that are on your wish list like a fireplace or slate floors.
At this point you will probably have a good idea of what your dream home will look like, so you will need to seek some professional help. You will need to hire an architect to put your ideas down on paper.You may need to interview a few different architects to find one that you are comfortable with. Make sure whomever you choose for final drawings has a full understanding of local building codes and zoning by­laws. In any ease your final plan will need to be approved by the city and a building permit must be obtained before any construction can begin.
It is time to look for a contractor(承包人). Whichever way you can do it in, be sure you are comfortable with your contractor and you have got references from his past clients. Remember the more homework you do in the beginning, the more enjoyable the process will be.

A 14-year-old girl was attacked by a grey bear while competing in a bike race. She managed to whisper the “bear” to her rescuer. The girl had serious head, neck and leg wounds. Now she is in a dangerous condition in hospital.
The girl was taking part in a 24-hour race through Bicentennial Park in Alaska when she was attacked by the bear. Bicentennial Park is next to Chugach State Park where some wild animals live.
The animal attacked the girl in a heavily wooded area at about 1:30 am. The girl called emergency services but she was unable to say any word. Another rider Peter Basinger found her lying unconscious on the ground. He told Anchorage Daily News that she managed to say the word “bear” when he stopped to help. Her helmet (頭盔)had been knocked off in the attack and rolled into the woods. Mr Basinger waited with the girl for about 20 minutes until doctors arrived. Armed police travelled 3 km with doctors to pick up the girl.
Animal expert Rick Sinnot said something must be done as soon as possible to prevent the bear from attacking people again. “It was extremely terrifying,” he said.
Mr Sinnot told Anchorage Daily News that the bear might be a mother. It hurt two runners on a nearby path two weeks ago. He also said that the girl was lucky to have been wearing a bike helmet because the bear had bitten her head several times.

When friends and family heard what I was planning, they wondered if I had gone crazy. But here I was in New Mexico, working at a youth farm as a volunteer. I wanted to give back to society. The farm is one of the nonprofit (非盈利的) camps in New Mexico. Founded in 1998, it provides a free camp for the kids whose families are poor. My main responsibility was to look after them.
More than anything, I was excited. I had the opportunity to influence these kids’ lives. I could help them have fun. At the beginning, I couldn’t help feeling nervous. By the end of the first week, I had felt completely at ease. Each child listened to me and enjoyed the games we played. This farm was their heaven, and each child truly felt beatific.
Harrison was probably the most troubled child I saw all summer. He couldn’t deal with anger. As soon as I met him, it was clear that he’d never been shown kindness or patience. His temper would unexpectedly fly out of control. He refused to play games with us and hit other kids at the very start. He was always worried that I would shout at him or hit him. I told him that I would never do that. And I simply educated him to be a kind and patient boy. After Harrison’s going home, his mother wrote to tell me how differently her son reacted to others and how much gentler he had become.
The kid was not the only one that changed. I changed, too. I grew to appreciate my caring family. I became more patient, too. My eyes were also opened to the different situations people live in. Giving myself to show them love was the most meaningful part of my service. As the saying goes, love is, above all, the gift of oneself.

The people of Dubai have extended their reach-into the sky. In January, the world’s tallest building opened there. The skyscraper, called the Burj Khalifa, is 162 stories high, with 60-mile views from the top of the tower. At 2,717 feet, the structure stands more than 1,000 feet taller than the last tallest building, the Taipei 101 in Taiwan.
After five years of construction, the Buji Khalifa opened with a party. But now the tower is getting down to business. The skyscraper has 37 floors of office space and 1,000 apartment. It will house the world’s largest mall. The owners hope that eventually more than 12,000 people will live and work in the 6 million square feet inside the building.
The Burj Khalifa was originally named the Burj Dubai, or Dubai Tower, after the region where it was built. Dubai is a sheikdom (酋長國) which is part of the United Arab Emirates. Recently, Dubai needed a loan. Sheik Khalifa, President of the United Arab Emirates and sheik of neighboring Abu Dhabi, helped out. Burj Dubai was renamed Burj Khalifa in his honor.
The towering structure has broken a number of records besides the record for height. It has the world’s highest swimming pool, on the 123rd floor. It also has the world’s highest outdoor observation deck: Visitors can stand in the open air 124 stories above ground. Fifty-four elevators race up and down, going as fast as 40 miles an hour. Should the elevators stop working, 3,000 stairs go from top to bottom. And when it’s time to clean the windows, 36 workers will spend about three months washing them.
Reaching half a mile into the sky, the Burj Khalifa soars over even the world’s other highest skyscrapers. Its height outstrips the Taipei 101 by 60 stories. It stands more than 1,100 feet taller than China’s Shanghai World Financial Center. And Dubai’s new tower dwarfs one of the most famous skyscrapers of all: it stands more than twice as high as the Empire State Building in New York City, the world’s tallest building for more than 40 years.
小題1:How tall is the Taipei 101?  (no more than 2 words)        (2 marks)
小題2:Why was Dubai Tower changed into the Buji Khalifa?  (no more than 12 words)       (3 marks)

In 2009, the number of hungry people in the world reached one billion for the first time. It is difficult not to be shocked by the fact that more than one in seven people on the planet do not have enough to eat. By the end of this year, more than 35 million people will have died as a result of          . Hunger kills more people per year than AIDS and malaria (瘧疾) combined.
The UN calculates that almost two-thirds of the world’s hungry people are in Asia. More than a quarter are in sub-Saharan Africa. Almost all of the rest are in Latin America, North Africa and the Caribbean. In the richest regions of the world there are only a small number of people who don’t have enough to eat. There are many reasons for world hunger. They include wars, droughts, floods and the overuse of farming land. All of them affect food production. But the most important reason is, quite simple, poverty — which has increased recently due to the economic effects of the financial crisis of 2008.
Although many people point out that there would be less hunger if the global population were smaller, few people would argue that there is not enough food to go around. The basic problem seems to be not a lack of food, but its distribution.In the last 50 years, global food production has risen even more quickly than the global population and there are of course many areas of the world where people generally have more than enough food. Overweight is a far bigger problem than hunger there.
小題1: What’s the main topic of the passage? (no more than 3 words )
                                                               
小題2:Where do most of the hungry people live? (no more than 3 words)

小題4:What does the underlined word “they”(line 4, paragraph 2 ) probably refer to? (no more than 6 words)
                                                               
小題5:What is the suggested way to reduce hunger in Paragraph 3? (no more than 8 words )
