26、 Traveling with kids is 90 percent reminding yourself to live in the moment and 10 percent making up your mind to never again leave your house.
I have an uncanny ability to forget this as soon as we return home from a trip and I've finished washing piles of dirty clothes in our luggage and cleaning all the messy caused by the kids. Extremely tired and annoyed, I would actually begin to miss the place we just left!
Family travel is like childbirth, I suppose. Painful, loud, messy, sort of awful, actually, but also wonderful. And you remember only the wonderful—until you’re back on a plane and your kids are fighting over who gets the aisle seat. Then you remember the bad stuff.
Last weekend, my kids and I flew to Texas for a trip we would have nothing to complain(抱怨) about—big hotel, wonderful view.
And yet—we found things to complain about. The pool was bigger in that other hotel! Why do you get to shower first? They call this coffee?! Luckily, I’ve learned to put my metaphorical coat of armor (盔甲) on as soon as we land somewhere, and it forces complaints to bounce off me and land in a pile at my feet.
For three days, genuine fun was had and annoying complaints were heard and ignored. Until it was time to catch a plane and fly home.
Unfortunately, our flight was canceled. We spent hours finding a hotel room. We hit the hotel pool before bed and swam well into the night, my kids making up songs and laughing so hard at their silly lyrics (歌词) and their crazy good fortune to be swimming at 10: 30 on a school night.
And that was when it hit me that family travel is all those things I said before but it’s also a lot more. It’s taking your kids to parts of the world that will open their eyes and finding that actually, yours need opening too. It’s remembering that joy and memories are where you make them, not where you find them.
【1】The underlined word “uncanny” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to .
A.unknown. B.uncertain.
C.unexpected. D.unusual.
【2】According to the passage, family travel is like childbirth in that .
A.they both cause financial trouble and pain.
B.they are both hard as well as rewarding.
C.childhood memories come flooding back when they travel.
D.both of them need many preparations.
【3】By saying “I’ve learned to put my metaphorical coat of armor on” in Paragraph 5, the author means that_ .
A.she tries to deal with the complaints more wisely and properly.
B.she turns those annoying complaints into a means to educate kids.
C.she has improved her language skills when handling the complaints.
D.she has succeeded in escaping kids’ fighting thanks to the armor.
【4】From the author’s experience in the passage, we can NOT learn that .
A.family vacation benefits her kids as well as her.
B.joy and memories should be created rather than discovered.
C.the most unforgettable memory for her is about the complaints.
D.she has to spend some time on housework after the family vacation.
27、How to learn English well
All English learners want to improve their English, but as you know, it can be difficult! 【1】The four main areas for you are: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Here are some ways to help you learn well.
Speaking
Speak as much as possible! This is the best way to learn English. 【2】The fastest way to learn English is to surround yourself with English speakers. Also, get into the habit of thinking in English. Don’t translate from your own language into English — it will slow you down. And it’s fun to sing in English, so learn some English songs and sing your heart out!
Listening
Like speaking, it’s better for you to be in a totally English-speaking environment. It’s also good to watch TV shows, or movies in English. 【3】But the more you listen, the more you’ll get. It’s good to listen to something over and over again. First, try to get the general meaning, and then, listen a second time for more in-depth information.
Reading
Reading English is something you can do to help you learn on your own, outside of the classroom. Newspapers are good for higher-level students. So for lower levels, try reading children’s stories or books which have been especially written for English learners. 【4】You should find something that you can learn well from.
Writing
Try keeping a diary; write something in English in it every day, even if it’s very simple. 【5】And the Internet is a great way to help you learn English. Try to make friends online, visit chat rooms, or post comments on blogs. These are all useful tools for you.
A.Make a plan for yourself.
B.For you, you need to work on all areas.
C.Choose easy stories and you can learn more.
D.The English news can be difficult for you at first.
E.Start with small sentences and make them longer.
F.There is nothing better than conversations to help you improve.
G.You won’t learn much if you choose a book that is too difficult or too easy.
28、 For athletes and volunteers, next year’s Tokyo Olympics could become known as the Get-Up-Early Games.
Hoping to beat the summer heat in the Japanese capital, organizers said on Tuesday they will start the men’s 50-kilometer race walk final at 5:30 am, while the men’s and the women’s marathon finals will go at 6 am. The men’s and the women’s triathlon start at 7:30 am. The women’s softball has games scheduled for 9 am, but no men’s baseball games will start before noon.
“A 9 am start is early. That’s my impression,” said Reika Utsugi, head coach of Japan’s women’s softball team. “But we will have one year for the preparation. Softball cannot decide the times.” Softball and baseball were dropped after the 2008 Olympics, and are appearing because of their popularity in Japan.
The 1964 Tokyo Olympics were held in the autumn and did not face heat problems. Modern Olympics which are held every four years can no longer be held during that time, avoiding Europe’s crowded soccer schedule, and year-round scheduling of baseball, basketball and hockey in the US. Koji Murofushi, sports director of the Tokyo Games, said organizers had consulted about scheduling with the International Olympic Committee(IOC), the governing bodies of the individual sports, athletes and medical experts. He said athletes would be able to adapt.
“When we look at the Olympic Games as a whole, of course we need to consider the global audience, adjust and control the overall schedule,” Murofushi said. “Athletes, when they know the schedule in advance, can make adjustments to their preparations.”
As previously announced, the swimming finals will begin at 10:30 am. The swim schedule has nothing to do with the heat and will follow the pattern of the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
Organizers say the first gold medal event will be the women’s 10-meter air rifle, which will take place on July 25 – the day after the opening ceremony. Organizers have labeled Aug 8 – the day before the closing ceremony – as “Super Saturday”, with about 30 finals, the most of any single day. Finals will include the men’s basketball, the men’s soccer and the men’s baseball.
The most difficult event to schedule might be surfing. Organizers have blocked out eight days for the event, hoping surf’s up for at least four of them. It’s a four-day competition. “The schedule is subject to change depending on the wave conditions,” organizers said.
【1】The organizers of the Tokyo Olympics will start some events earlier EXCEPT ________.
A. the women’s marathon finals B. the men’s triathlon
C. the women’s softball games D. the swimming finals
【2】What can we infer from the passage?
A. The softball game is usually held in the late afternoon.
B. It’s impossible for athletes to deal with the new schedule.
C. The baseball game was cancelled at two Olympic Games.
D. The organizers changed the schedule without consideration.
【3】The IOC changed the time of the Olympics Games to ________.
A. beat the summer heat B. meet the needs of athletes
C. avoid famous competitions D. give athletes time to prepare
【4】As to the events and awards at the Tokyo Olympics, we can know that ________.
A. the men’s 10-meter air rifle will be the first event
B. Aug 8 will be the day with the most gold medals awarded
C. surfing which is easy to schedule will be a four-day competition
D. the men’s basketball will take place before “Super Saturday”
29、Staying fit is a great way to improve your mood and physical health. With some simple tricks, you can stay fit for years to come!
Start walking, jogging or cycling
No matter what your speed is, walking, jogging and cycling are very important parts of a healthy lifestyle. 【1】
Come up with a daily walking, jogging or cycling routine that fits with your schedule first. After a while you can increase your distance, speed and the length of your workout.
【2】. For example, if you drive to the grocery store, try to park your car in a far away spot from the entrance. So you have to walk those extra steps to get there. If you live close enough to school, a good idea would be to start walking.
Exercise in the classroom .
Not everyone has the time or money to go to the gym and there is no need to. 【3】 Some in-classroom exercises include:
Sit-ups. Sit-ups can be done by simply laying on the ground or with a chair or exercise ball.
Push-ups. 【4】
Join a school sports team
Joining a school sports team may be a great way to get outside, move around and have some fun! 【5】 It is a great way for you to join at least one of them.
A.Go out of your way to walk more
B.The most popular school sports are basketball and football
C.Working out in the classroom is very easy and can be very beneficial
D.If you like the gym atmosphere then the gym is a great place to stay fit
E.Use your weight against the floor or steps to work on your upper body strength

32、阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
An 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old highly educated son. Suddenly a crow (乌鸦) perched on the tree near their window.
The father asked his son, “What is this?” The son replied, “It is a crow.”
After a few minutes, the father asked his son the second time, “What is this?” The son said, “Father, I have just now told you ‘It’s a crow.’”
After a little while, the old father again asked his son the third time, “What is this?”
At this time some expression of irritation (恼怒) was felt in the son’s tone when he said to his father unwillingly. “It’s a crow, a crow.”
After a little while, the father again asked his son the fourth time, “What is this?”
This time, the son shouted at his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again, although I have told you so many times ‘IT IS A CROW.’ Are you not able to understand this?”
A little later the father went to his room and came back with an old tattered (发皱的) diary, which he had maintained since his son was born.
On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page.
When the son read it, the following words were written in the diary:
“Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa, when a crow was sitting on the window. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied to him all 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question. I did not at all feel irritated, but I rather felt affection for my innocent son.”
