Canada Day

Since 1982, July 1st has been officially known as Canada Day. Canadians of all ages take part in this festival across the country.

Canada Day is the year’s biggest national party. In many towns and cities, the government organizes a lot of events, often outdoors. These include parades（游行）, concerts, festivals,

firework displays and ceremonies for new Canadian citizens（公民）.The celebrations often have a patriotic mood. Canada’s national flag, a symbol for Canada Day, can be seen everywhere and a lot of people paint their faces red and white, which are Canada’s national colors. The celebrations in Ottawa, Canada’s capital city, are especially grand and exciting.

In the province of Quebec, many home rentals（租赁）start on July 1st and last for exactly one year, and many people in Quebec spend Canada Day moving from one house to another. So in Quebec, Canada Day is also known as Moving Day.

Many organizations, businesses and stores are closed this day. Only some bookstores, hospitals and gas stations may be open. Post offices are closed, too. As Canada Day falls in the Canadian summer holiday period, all schools are closed as well. In some areas, special services are provided for large events. The concerts, parades and festivals may cause some traffic jams.

【1】 According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A. Canada Day falls on the first day of June.

B. Canada Day was celebrated before 1982.

C. Canada Day is celebrated throughout Canada.

D. Canadians except new citizens celebrate Canada Day.

【2】 The underlined word “patriotic” means _____ in Chinese.

A. 温馨的   B. 爱国的

25、   My house is made out of wood, glass and stone. It is also made out of software.

If you come to visit, you'll probably be surprised when you come in. Someone will give you an electronic PIN (个人身份号码) to wear. This PIN tells the house who and where you are. The house uses this information to give you what you need. When it's dark outside, the PIN turns on the lights nearest you, and then turns them off as you walk away from them. Music moves with you too. If the house knows your favorite music, it plays it. The music seems to be everywhere, but in fact other people in the house hear different music or no music. If you get a telephone call, only the nearest telephone rings. 

Of course, you are also able to tell the house if you want something. There is a home control console (控制台), a small machine that turns things on and off around you. 

The PIN and the console are new ideas, but they are in fact like many things we have today. If you want to go to a movie, you need a ticket. If I give you my car keys, you can use my car. The car works for you because you have the keys. My house works for you because you wear the PIN or hold the console. 

I believe that ten years from now, most new homes will have the systems that I've put in my house. The systems will probably be even bigger and better than the ones I've put in today.

I like to try new ideas. I know that some of my ideas will work better than others. But I hope that one day I will stop thinking of these systems as new, and ask myself instead, "How will I live without them?"

【1】The PIN can’t ______ in the writer’s new house.

A.turns on the lights

B.play your favorite music

C.make every telephone ring

【2】The underlined this information refers to information like______.

A.nationality B.name C.hobbies

【3】The writer's new house is different from ordinary ones mainly because _____.

A.it has been controlled by a home console

B.you can make a telephone call anywhere

C.it has your favorite music following you

【4】The writer wrote the fourth paragraph in order to ______.

A.explain more easily what the functions(功能) of the PIN and the console are

B.let readers know how special his house is

C.tell the readers how to use the PIN and the console

【5】Which is the best title of the passage?

A.Easy life in the future

B.The function of the PIN

C.A home for the future

26、If your heart starts beating quickly after having a can of cola or other fizzy (起泡的) drink, then you should listen carefully to what your body’s trying to tell you. Many fizzy drinks have caffeine (咖啡因), which wakes you up and gives you energy. It can also make you breathe more quickly and even influence your sleep, as well as raise your blood pressure, which could put you at risk of a heart problem or other medical condition.

If you notice effects (影响) like these, or your heart is often beating too fast, it might be time to cut down on the number of fizzy drinks you’re having. You don’t have to stop drinking them completely but it’s surely a good idea to drink more water during the day than other kinds of drink, including coffee, tea or hot chocolate, which also have caffeine. And you should avoid having any of these drinks at least six hours before going to bed. However, if you already drink a lot of caffeine, don’t stop suddenly. Doing so can cause headaches and make you feel more nervous than usual.

Some studies suggest that you should include some caffeine daily because it helps to reduce (减少) the possibility of heart problems. It can also help you keep going while you exercise and reduce muscle (肌肉) pain after you’ve worked out. And it is helpful when you want to stay awake and study when feeling sleepy!

But how much caffeine is healthy? Doctors say that teenagers shouldn’t have more than 100 mg a day, which is about one cup of coffee, or about three cans of cola. That isn’t to say that drinking three cans of cola is good for you because it has a lot of sugar and can cause the bad effects mentioned earlier.

【1】What is the good effect of caffeine according to Paragraph 1?

A．Helping stay awake and offer energy.

B．Making you breathe more quickly.

C．Having an influence on your sleep.

D．Raising people’s blood pressure.

【2】What do the underlined words “Doing so” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A．Cutting down on the number of drinks.

B．Drinking more water during the day.

C．Going to bed at least six hours earlier.

D．Stopping drinking caffeine suddenly.

【3】What is the third paragraph mainly about?

A．The results of some studies.

B．The causes of heart problems.

C．The reasons for doing sports.

D．The influences of muscle pain.

【4】Which of the following is true according to the text?

A．Drinking tea daily can reduce the effects of too much caffeine.

B．It’s normal for the teenagers to have 3 cans of cola in one go.

C．When people try to stop drinking caffeine, they might feel ill.

D．Research shows that no caffeine can be healthy for the body.

27、   We cannot remember clearly since when we have started to take our mobiles to a dinner table. This happens a lot, especially when we eat out. Once a dish comes, instead of lifting our chopsticks, we take out our mobiles and click (咔哒). Later, we post the photos onto microblog or WeChat, waiting to be liked. Then we check our mobiles from time to time during the meal to see whether we get “liked” or not. We just cannot leave our mobiles for only a meal.

Does that sound familiar (熟悉的) to you? Do you do that often? If not, how do you feel when others do that when having dinner with you?

A recent study suggests that what we are used to doing is not that good. Spending time taking photos of food makes the food less satisfying. To test this, some researchers did an experiment. Some people were asked to take photos before they could enjoy food. It turned out that the more photos they took, the less delicious the food seemed to them. So, why not stop taking photos and just enjoy the food in front of you?

Besides the scientific result, there are also some other bad influences of taking photos of food before meals. After posting the photos onto the internet, one will involuntarily (不自觉地) check his mobile many times. “Does everyone like my photos? I hope a lot of people like them!” It seems like your mobile secretly calls your name all the time, even when you are with real people.

So, next time you go out to have dinner with your family or friends, how about not taking photos of food?  Let the food be delicious as it is and share your life with people around you. Trust me. It will be a wonderful time.

【1】What happens a lot at the dinner table nowadays   ?

A.People talk about their microblogs or WeChat.

B.People learn from each other how to cook dishes.

C.People take photos of dishes and post them before eating.

D.People like taking photos with friends or families.

【2】What does the recent study tell us about taking photos of food   ?

A.It makes people stay long. B.It makes food less delicious

C.It makes people want to leave. D.It makes people enjoy the food

【3】What does the fourth paragraph talk about   ?

A.The reasons for checking your mobiles.

B.The ways of posting the photos onto the internet.

C.The tips of making others like your photos on the microblog.

D.Other bad influences of taking photos before meals.

【4】What does the writer think of taking photos of food   ?

A.Funny B.Helpful C.Necessary D.Unacceptable

【5】What can we learn from the passage   ?

A.Remember to have dinner with our family and friends at home.

B.Forget the photos and enjoy the life with people around us.

C.Take photos of delicious food and share them with others

D.Take photos of food in order to have a wonderful life.
