Everyone gets sick of hearing. “Put on your seat belt!”But it’s good advice. People who wear seat belts are 45 percent less likely to be killed while riding in the front seat of a car.
The US government wants more seat belt laws. It says children aged 4 to 15 are often killed in car accidents. In 2005, there were 1,627 children aged 4 to 15 killed in car accidents. More than 1,000 of those children were not wearing seat belts. If they had been wearing seat belts, 500 of those children could be alive today.
These children are too old to be in car seats, but they often sit in the back seat. Seat belt laws in many states, including Wisconsin, only require people in the front seat to wear seat belts. Children who aren’t wearing seat belts can be thrown from the car. The risk of dying in an accident is three times greater if the person is thrown from the car.
New laws could require children aged 4 to 8 to be in booster seats in the car. Booster seats help seat belts fit children properly. Right now, only 5 percent of children aged 4 to 8 are seated in booster seats.
While parents have the choice of whether wearing seat belts or not, children are too young to make that choice. Even if you decide not to wear a seat belt, make sure you children are in seat belts and car seats. It’s the law and it will save their lives.
小題1:The underlined sentence “Everyone gets sick of hearing”in the first paragraph means“________”.
A．there is something wrong with everyone’s ears
B．a(chǎn)ll people fall ill when they hear something
C．many people don’t pay attention to wearing seat belts
D．none of the people knows it is a piece of good advice
小題2:More than two-third of 1,627 children were killed because ___________.
A．they weren’t using seat belts
B．they were too careful when they walked on the road
C．they were not old enough to sit in the car
D．they wore seat belts
小題3:You must get your children to put on seat belts in order to ________.
A．keep them comfortable in the car seatB．keep them safe
C．keep them awake in the car all the timeD．prevent all kinds of traffic accidents
小題4:What would be the best title of this passage?
A．Children Should Put on Seat Belts.
B．Too Many Traffic Accidents Happened Recently.
C．Traffic Laws Are Very Important.
D．Parents Are Important to Children.

What is your body language saying to your children? What is their body language telling you? I had the honor of hearing Jan Hargrave speak the other day. She is one of four body language experts in the US. Jan Hargrave says we lie with the right side of our brains, so it is our left hand that gives us away. A person touching his nose, pulling at his ear or rubbing his eye with his left hand might be lying to you. Also, a person who, in any way, crosses any fingers might just be lying. That, she says, is a holdover(遺留物) from childhood, when we crossed our fingers to signal that we didn’t mean what we were saying. When children squint(眨) their eyes, move their body away from you, or can’t seem to make good eye contact, you may need to ask for a little more clarification.
But just as important, children learn early how to read our body language when they are conversing(交談) with us. Here are some acceptance signals to let them know you are interested when they are talking to you. Lean(傾斜) towards them. Make good eye contact and smile. Open your arms. Let your hands relax with the palms(手掌) showing: an open, upward palm always show acceptance. If your legs are crossed, make sure you are not crossing them away from your child. These are important because they signal to your child that you are focused on them and are accepting and welcoming them into your world.
By paying attention, we can open those lines of important communication with our children and we can see the truth more clearly. I think it would be a mistake to use these tools to lie, but we need to be aware of the signals we are giving so we can show people that they really do matter to us.
小題1:According to Jan Hargrave, we can tell whether a person is lying by _______.
A．observing his/her left hand’s movements.
B．looking at how he/ she crosses his/ her fingers
C．observing whether he/ she uses body language
D．making good eye contact with him/ her
小題2:We can learn from the passage that body language _______.
A．is hard to master for children
B．can be understood in different ways
C．may help improve communication
D．is more likely to hide the truth
小題3:Which of the following does NOT show acceptance to people?
A．Smile while making eye contact.
B．Open your arms to them.
C．Relax your hands with the palms showing.
D．Cross your leg away from them.
小題4:In the last paragraph, the author seems to suggest that parents_______.
A．spend more time with their children
B．learn to read and use body language
C．pay attention to family communication
D．try to prevent their children from lying

Sports play an important role in British life. The most popular sport is football. Cricket is also popular in England, but is less important in the other home nations. Rugby union and rugby league are the other major team sports. Tennis is the most important sport for the two weeks of the Wimbledon Championships(溫布爾登網(wǎng)球錦標(biāo)賽)
Football
The modern global game of football developed from traditional British football games in the 19th century. Club football is organized separately in each of the home nations. English football has a league system which combines thousands of clubs. Scotland has a similar but smaller club football structure. The top level league in Wales is the league of Wales. In Northern Ireland the main league is the Irish Football League.
Each season the most successful clubs from each of the home nations qualify for(使…具有…的資格) the two Europe wide club competitions organized by UEFA(歐足聯(lián)), the UEFA Champions League and the UEFA Cup.
Cricket
Cricket was invented in England. It is regarded as England’s national summer game and it is probably the second most widely covered sport.
There are eighteen professional country clubs, seventeen of them in England and one in Wales. Each summer the country clubs compete in the first class Country Championship, which consist of two leagues of nine teams and in which matches are played over four days.
Rugby
Like football, rugby union and rugby league both developed from traditional British football games in the 19th century. For much of the 20th century there was great antagonism between rugby leagues, which was a mainly working class game based in the industrial areas of northern England, and rugby union, which is a mainly middle class game in England, and is also popular in the other home nations.
Tennis
Tennis is yet another sport which originated in the United Kingdom and the governing body of the sport is the LTA(草地網(wǎng)球協(xié)會(huì)). However, no British man has won Wimbledon since 1936 and no British woman since 1977. The only British players of either sex to reach the world top 50 in recent years are Greg Rusedski, who learnt his tennis in Canada, and Tim Henman and Andrew Murray ,who did not pass through the LTA system either.
小題1:What do we know about football?
A．The top clubs represent the UK in the two Europe competitions.
B．Football is a newly-invented game in England
C．The top level league in England is the Irish Football League
D．Club football is an organized union in the UK.
小題2:From the passage we can learn      .
A．There exist all professional county clubs in England.
B．Rugby leagues was enjoyed by middle class
C．Tennis is in the charge of LTA

Snow falls in the Earth’s extreme North and South throughout the year. However， the heaviest snowfalls have been reported in the mountains of other areas during winter. Snow is even known to fall near the Equator (赤道)，but only on the highest mountains.
Snow contains much less water than rain, but much of the water the world uses comes from snow. Melting snow provides water for rivers, electric power stations and agricultural crops. In the western United States, mountain snow provides up to seventy-five percent of all surface water supplies.
Snowfall helps to protect plants and some wild animals from winter weather. Fresh snow is made largely of air trapped among the snow crystals (晶體). Because the air has trouble moving, the movement of heat is limited. Snow also influences the movement of sound waves. The surface of the snow takes in, or absorbs, sound waves. As snow grows older or if there have been strong winds, it can become hard and flat. Then, the snow，s surface will help to send back sound waves.
Snow may be beautiful, but it can be deadly. It is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of people. Many people die in traffic accidents on roads covered with snow and ice or from being seriously stuck in the winter storm. Others die from heart attacks caused by too much physical activity out in the cold.
People may not be able to avoid living in areas where it snows often. However, they can avoid becoming victims of snowstorms. People should stop driving and stay at home until the storm has passed. People living in these areas should carry emergency supplies in their vehicle. These include food，emergency medical supplies，and extra clothing to stay warm and dry.
小題1:Mountain snowfall _____.
A．is heavier than that in the South and the North Poles
B．has never occurred near the Equator of the earth
C．brings less of the water the world uses than rain does
D．provides up to seventy—five percent of water supplies worldwide
小題2:Snow protects plants and wild animals from cold weather by _____.
A．supplying much more air B．limiting heat movement
C．a(chǎn)bsorbing strong winds D．sending back sound waves
小題3:Snow can be deadly mainly because it can _____.
A．cause road accidents
B．make people stuck in winter storms
C．lead to heart attacks
D．make people victims of snowstorms
小題4:What will the text probably tell us following the last paragraph? _.
A．How to drive during snowstorms
B．Where we can get emergency supplies
C．How to prevent heart attacks out in cold
D．Why we should stay warm and dry in winter

Angry Birds is a video game developed by Finnish computer game developer Rovio Mohile. Inspired primarily by a sketch of stylized wingless birds, the game was first released for Apple’s mobile operating system in December 2009.Since then, over 12 million copies of the game have been purchased from Apple’s App Store.
With its fast-growing popularity worldwide, the game and its characters---angry birds and their enemy pigs---have appeared in television programs throughout the world. The Israeli comedy A Wonderful Country ,one of the nation’s most popular TV programs, satirized(諷刺) recent failed Israeli-Palestinian peace attempts by featuring the Angry Birds in peace negotiations with the pigs. Clips of the segment (片段)went viral, getting viewers from all around the world. American television hosts Conan O’Brien ,Jon Steward ,and Daniel Tosh have referenced the game in comedy sketches for their programs, Conan, The Daily Show, and Dash. O. Some of the game’s more famous fans include Prime Minister David Cameron of UK, who plays the iPad version of the game, and author Salman Rushdie, who is believed to be “something of a master at Angry Birds.”
Angry Birds and its characters have also been featured in advertisements in different forms. In March 2011,the characters began appearing in a series of advertisements for Microsoft’s Bing search engine. In the same year, Nokin produced an advertisement in Austin, Texas that included the game’s characters on a downtown building for its new mobile phone. Later, a T-Mobile advertisement filmed in Spain included a real-life mock-up(實(shí)物模擬)of the game in a city center .Nokin also used the game in Malaysia to promote an attempt to set a world record for the largest number of people playing a single mobile game.
Angry Birds has even inspired works of philosophical analogy（哲學(xué)類比）.A five-part essay with the title“ Angry Birds Yoga（瑜伽）---How to Eliminate the Green  Pigs in Your Life” was written by Giridhari Dasar in Brazil ,utilizing the characters and game play mechanics to interpret various concepts of yoga philosophy. The piece attracted much media attention for its unique method of philosophical presentation.
