Nearly 500 years before Christopher Columbus, brave Viking seamen crossed the Atlantic Ocean. Vikings were the first Europeans to reach North America. They lived in a par of Northern Europe called Scandinavia. Most Vikings were peaceful farmers, traders, and talented workmen. But they were also excellent shipbuilders.

Viking ships were smartly and creatively designed. They were well-built with common wood and strong enough to sail hundreds of miles on the open sea. They were light enough to be carried over land. When there was no wind, the seamen could row the ships with oars（船桨）.

Vikings traveled far in search of goods such as silk, glass, and silver. Some Vikings sailed west and lived on the islands of Iceland and Greenland from then on. Between 997 and 1003 A.D., a Viking named Leif Eriksson landed in what is now Canada. The Vikings probably stayed for less than ten years, though they traded with Native（当地的）Americans for much longer. A bit of their culture can still be found on American calendar. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday are named for Viking gods!

“How was school today?” Ethan’s mom asked as he climbed into the car.

“Fine.” Ethan answered.

“What did you do?” she tried to start a conversation.

“Nothing.” Ethan answered and turned his attention to his phone.

Ethan’s mom sighed. “Your grandmother and I used to have actual conversations.”

“Huh?” Ethan wasn’t really listening.

“Nothing,” his mother said sadly.

Ten minutes later, Ethan finally looked up from his phone. What are we doing here? He asked, noticing they were at an unknown supermarket.

“Grandma is coming over for dinner tonight and we need to buy something for her favorite strawberry cheesecake. I thought you could help me make it.”

Ethan hated shopping, and he would play his favorite video game rather than bake for a whole afternoon. However, he knew his grandmother would love the cheesecake.

Surprisingly, Ethan realized that he enjoyed shopping and he was also having fun in the kitchen helping his mom after they got home. While all of this was happening, the two actually talked, and Ethan remembered several interesting things from school.

It was great to see his grandmother again at dinner too. The last time they met was several weeks ago, and he realized that he had a lot to tell her.

“Wow, Ethan, I don’t think I’ve heard you speak this much in a long time,” Ethan’s mom smiled.

“Well, when you were Ethan’s age, Norah,” Ethan’s grandmother said gently to his mother, “you used to spend your whole life in your room!”

Ethan’s mother turned pink, “That’s not true, mom!”

“In fact,” Ethan’s grandmother winked (眨眼) at Ethan, “I had to get her to help me make this very cheesecake to even get her to talk to me.”

From the other side of the room, Ethan’s phone rang. But Ethan realized that this conversation with his mother and grandmother was much more interesting.

27、Every hour spent watching TV, DVDs and videos as an adult reduces life by almost 22 minutes, a study suggests. And watching TV for an average of six hours a day can cut short your life by five years.

The researchers say they only want to tell people how dangerous watching TV for long time is. And they want to find out the relationship between watching TV and life.

Writing in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, they concluded（得出结论）: TV watching time may have something to do with a loss of life.

The researchers, from the University of Queensland, used information from the Australian illnesses and lifestyle study, together with population and death rate data. But they said, “While we used Australian data, the effects in other countries are likely to be comparable（可比较的）. In the UK, the average amount of time spent watching TV is four hours a day compared with five hours in the United States.

Some American researchers said that watching TV for long time can lead premature（过早的）death. Other study suggests that sitting for long can cause overweight and it can also make people take more junk foods.

England’s Chief Medical Officer, Sally Davies, says, “Physical activity offers huge benefits. We hope these studies will help more people realize that there are many ways to get exercise.” Her study shows that exercising for just 15 minutes a day can increase your life by up to three years.

28、（浙江省宁波市鄞州区2018届九年级上学期期中）Dear Ronny,

Years ago, you 【1】 (come) to me for help. You said, ＂Grandpa, how could you achieve so much in your life? You are still full of energy, and I’m already tired of trying hard for my life. What should I do?＂

I didn’t know 【2】 to say to you. But I think I should give you 【3】 answer. Here is what I believe.

First, realize that life 【4】 (fill) with surprises, but many are good ones. If you don’t keep 【5】 (watch) for them, you’ll miss at least half of the excitement. Welcome challenges. They’ll make you wiser, stranger and more powerful 【6】 you were the day before. When you make mistakes, be thankful for the things they teach you.

【7】, there will be more opportunities while you are growing up. So you have to be brave 【8】 to move from a known place to an unknown one. Consider all the roads ahead, and decide which one to follow. Then believe in 【9】 (you), get up and keep going.

Most important of all, never give up. The person that ends up as a winner is the one 【10】 has the strong will to win. Give life everything you’ve got. And life will give its best to you.

Love always,

Grandpa
