16、Mrs. Klein told her first graders to draw a picture of something for which they were thankful, she thought how little these children, who lived in a terrible neighborhood, actually had to be thankful for. Since it was Thanksgiving Day, she knew that most of the class would draw pictures of turkeys (
17、火鸡) or of Thanksgiving tables with lots of food What made Mrs. Klein surprised was Douglass picture. Douglas was so shy and likely to be found away from the others as they went outside for games. Douglass drawing was simply this:A hand, clearly, but whose hand?The class was attracted by his picture.
18、 “I think it must be the hand of his mum or dad that brings us food,” said one student “A farmer,” said another, “because they grow the turkeys. ” “It looks more like a policeman, and they protect us” “I think,” said Lavinia, who was always so serious,“that it is supposed to be all the hands that he
19、lp us, but Douglas could only draw one of them. ” Mrs. Klein was very happy to see that the class showed so much interest in Douglas picture. When she had the others at work on another project, she went over to him and asked whose hand it was Douglas answered in a very low voice. “Its yours, Teacher
20、.” Then Mrs. Klein remembered that she had taken Douglas by the hand from time to time; she often did that with the children. But that it should have meant so much to Douglas Perhaps, she thought, this was her Thanksgiving, and everybodys Thanksgiving-not the material things we receive, but the smal
21、l ways that we give something to others 24. When did the story happen?_ A. On Thanksgiving Day B. On Teachers Day C. After Thanksgiving Day D. Before Christmas Eve 25. Douglas drew a picture of _ hand A. his mums B. a farmers C. his teachers D. a policemans 26. What does the writer want to tell us?_
22、 A. Thanksgiving Day is popular B. Being a good teacher is important C. Painting is necessary in our life D. Giving is more meaningful than receiving C Running in Cold Weather Improves Performance Cold weather during winter months may keep many people from leaving home and running in the open airHow
23、ever, a new study shows that the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. In fact, researchers say, running in cold weather helps improve ones performance Many people say running in the winter can be difficult. Two reasons are the low temperatures and bitter winds. Yet many runners might find it
24、 easier than running in hot weather. That could be because lower temperatures reduce stress on the body. When you run in cold weather, your body loses less water than in warmer conditions. The body needs less water on a cold day than in warm weather. This information comes from sports scientists at
25、St. Marys University in London John Brewer is a professor of applied sport science at St. Marys. For this study, he and other researchers put a group of people into a room they called an “environmental chamber”. The researchers then recreated summer and winter weather conditions in the room. The tes
26、t subjects were asked to run 10,000meters under both conditions. Brewer says he and his team recorded biological measurements of the runners. “Weve got a group of subjects into the environmental chamber, weve changed the conditions to recreate the summer or winter and weve got them to run a 10km und
27、er both of those conditions and taken various measurements(测量)on each runner while theyve been completing their 10km.” They found that the runners lost water by around 30.38% more in those hotter conditions. Besides, Brewer says every movement runners make produces heat. He explains that one way in
28、which we lose heat is by sweating(出汗)He says the body also loses heat by transporting the blood to the surface of the skin. “That heat builds up in the body and can be really damaging unless you can lose that heat. And its much harder to lose heat when the environment is warm as well.” And they foun
29、d how they felt their perception of heat-was around a third lower when they were running in cold conditions. The body does not have to work as hard to pump blood to the skins surface Several websites note that the most important thing for people who run in cold conditions is to wear the right clothi
30、ng. Keeping as dry as possible is the most important when exercising in low temperatures. So, if you are a runner, dont let winter weather keep you indoors. Simply get ready for the low temperatures and start running 27. According to the passage, John Brewer probably agrees that _ A. people should r
31、un 10,000meters in winter B. running in winter is good for your heart C. people who run in winter like to wear thick clothing D. running in cold conditions is better than in warm 28. What can we infer from the passage _ A. Running can help us lose heat B. Running in cold weather is beneficial to our
32、 body C. The heat can damage our body D. The body does not have to work to pump blood 29. What is the writers main purpose in writing this passage?_ A. To introduce a research on running by Brewer B. To explain why running in winter is difficult for people C. To encourage people to run outside durin
33、g winter months D. To advertise the new websites on running he created D Arkansas may give up the BMI program or weaken it with the help of the new governor, who said it had “a lot of negative, unexpected results”. The number of overweight children in the United States has more than doubled in the p
34、ast 20 years. Being seriously overweight can lead to health problems later in life. As a result, Arkansas first started the BMI program in 2004public schools were required to provide parents with a yearly report of their childrens body-mass index (BMI), a number to show whether their weight is appro
35、priate(合适的). Along with students BMIs, parents also received information on health risks of being overweight. A study shows that obesity(肥胖) rates in Arkansas have stopped increasing since 2004. But not everyone supports schools in reporting students BMIs. Some parents have complained their kids wor
36、ry that they are being “graded” on their weight, although Dr. Joe Thompson, who helped plan the BMI program, gave the explanation at the start of the program, “Just like a school check for vision or hearing, this is a way to raise awareness(意识) about a health risk.” Critics argue that telling parent
37、s their children weigh too much could hurt childrens self- esteem(自尊). Some also question whether its the role of schools to monitor students weight. Dr. Nancy Krebs, a nutrition expert, also thinks obesity report cards arent good enough. “Theyre making kids feel bad about how they are,” she says. “
38、Instead of focusing on kids BMIs, schools should provide better health and physical education classes and serve healthier foods.” However, supporters of the program say overweight children have had self-esteem problems before their parents get obesity report cards. Dr. Karen Young at Arkansas Childr
39、ens Hospital says, “The overweight kids are already being teased(被嘲弄). It doesnt take the letter for them to feel bad.” Health experts from the University of Arkansas think it would be a pity to stop the BMI program. They see the program as a wake-up call for families and the letter is spurring some
40、 major action on some parents. Danita Thomas said she knew her son Irie was too heavy. But since getting that first BMI report, Irie has lost nearly 100 pounds and given up junk food. “It was helpful,” she said. “It made me realize that we needed to do something different.” The BMI reports and other
41、 steps, such as limits on vending machine(自动售货机) use at school, are leading to healthier students. If there was no BMI program, there should be other effective tools to get schools and parents involved with preventing children from becoming overweight adults. 30. What might be the purpose of the BMI
42、 program in Arkansas? A. To make the schools realize the importance of health education. B. To warn parents of health risks of overweight children. C. To drive parents to learn more knowledge on health. D. To explain why some students gain weight quickly. 31. Dr. Nancy Krebs believes that _. A. over
43、weight students are usually laughed at by classmates B. schools should teach students how to lead a healthy life C. overweight students usually get low grades at school D. schools should do the job to record students weight 32. The words “spurring some major action on some parents” in Paragraph 6 pr
44、obably mean “_”. A. keeping some parents from worries B. encouraging some parents to make changes C. helping some parents learn from other families D. supporting some parents in expressing their opinions 33. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. What schools should report to parents. B. How sc
45、hools can care about overweight students. C. Why schools should help students control their weight. D. Whether schools should report students BMIs to parents. 四、阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。(共 10 分,每小题 2 分) If youre going to travel the world this summer, you should make up a travel budget (预算) before you hit the
