A
When you are learning English, listening, speaking and writing are important, but reading can al so be very helpful. When you read, you can not only learn some new words, but also learn how to use these English words. When you read, it gives you a good example for writing.
Good reading tips(建议)
Try to read at the right level (水平). Read something that you can (more or less) understand. If you need to stop every three words to use a dictionary, it is not interesting.
Try to increase the number of your new words. If there are four or five new words on a page, write them in your notebook. But you don’t have to write them while you read. Instead, try to guess their meaning as you read, mark them with a pen. Then come back when you have finished reading to look them up in a dictionary and write them in your own vocabulary book. Then try to remember them.
Try to read regularly (定期).For example, read for a short time once a day. Fifteen minutes every day is better than two hours every Sunday. Fix a time to read and keep to it. For example, you could read for fifteen minutes when you go to bed, or when you get up or at lunch time.
Read what interests you. Choose a book or a magazine that you like, because you are going to spend time and money to read it. So choose an interesting book. You can also read newspapers. There are many English newspapers in China. For example, 21st Century Teens, English Coaching Paper, etc. They are easy enough for you to understand. There is something interesting in them.

Look around?What do you see? What do you hear? What do you smell? If you live in a city, you probably see many people. You hear the noise of traffic. And you breathe the polluted air from cars and factories.
We are entering a new time in the history of the world. Before this, most people were farmers. They lived in the countryside. Now many people are leaving the farms and moving into the cities. They’re looking for jobs. The cities are growing very quickly. Most cities are very crowded. People are driving more cars, burning more fuel(燃料), using more water, eating more food, making more garbages, and producing more things in factories than ever before. Life is becoming difficult.
Some governments are trying to plan for the future. They’re building new roads, putting up new houses, looking for more water, and limiting the population growth in certain areas. Still, city planners are getting worried. People are crowding into the cities faster. The cities are short of room. What is the answer to this problem?
30. What’s the main problem?
A. The cities are becoming more and more crowded.
B. The cities are becoming smaller.
C. There would be no food or water.
D. City planners are getting worried.
31. The underlined word “limiting” may mean in Chinese.
A. 扩充 B. 消灭 C. 限制 D. 优化
32. According to the passage, which sentence is NOT true?
A. You breathe the polluted air in the city.

D. Cities won’t have enough room for people to live in.
C
In the Caucasus Mountains, nearly 50 out of every 100,000 people live to celebrate their 100th birthday, and many don’t stop at 100! In America only 3 people in 100,000 reach 100. But these old people aren’t alone. The people who live high in the Himalaya Mountains and the Andes Mountains, seem to share the secret of long life, too.
First of all, hard physical work is a way of life for all of these long-lived people. They begin their long days of physical work as children and never seem to stop. For example, Mr Rustam is 142 years of age. He has experienced several wars. His wife is 116 years old. They have been married for 90 years. Mr Rustam doesn’t want to stop his work as a farmer, “Why? What else would I do?” He asks. Oh, he has slowed down a bit. Now h e might work for 6 hours in the field instead of 10.
Another factor (因素) that may contribute to the good health of these people is t heir isolation. Most of them are kept off the modern world.
Inherited (遗传的) factors also help. Most of the longest-lived people had parents and grandparents who also reached very old ages. So good family genes (基因) may be one factor i n living longer.
Finally, although these three groups don’t eat exactly the same food, they eat little animal meat. Their diets are full of fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains, cheese and milk. They never eat more food than body needs. w ww .xk b 1.cn
33.Which of the following contributes to the good health of all these long-lived people?
A. Fresh air in the mountains.B. Hard physical work.
C. A big family.D. The same food.
34.What does the word “isolation” mean in Chinese?
A. 自我封闭B. 独立C. 与世隔绝D. 淡泊
35.What would be the best title (标题) for the passage?
A. Good HealthB. The Old People in the Mountains
C. Long-lived PeopleD. The Secret of Long Life

Many students eat their breakfasts on the way to school or in the dining-room. But some of them don’t really know how to eat well when eating out. Here is some important advice.[来源:21世纪教育网]
The first is to eat less fast food. The harm of eating too much fast food is getting weight because fast food, such as French fries and other deep fried food, contains（包含） too much fat. Too much fast food is bad for your body. So don’t eat it too often.
Soda is another thing you should pay attention to. Both cokes and sodas contain a lot of sugar and they can slow down a person’s calcium absorption(钙的吸收), so it’s best to drink as little soda or coke as possible.
Food in the dining-room may not be as tasty as fast food, but it’s actually easier to make healthy choices. Human bodies need all kinds of food. You can have a dinner that contains proteins（蛋白质）, vitamins and complex carbohydrates(碳水化合物). In othe r words, a meal with fish or meat, vegetables and so me bread or rice will provide you with most nutrients that the body needs.
