26、We all have them in our lives—Ms. Late and Mr. Early. They live among us just to try our patience. They can’t seem to get out of their own way and arrive on time. It’s a problem, and they know it, but that’s how they roll.

I’ve ever been in the room with my bestie Tinkerbell and said, “It’s time to go.” She agreed. Then, she turned around and ordered a T-shirt she had seen online, checked her email, folded her laundry and searched for her purse while I was waiting by the door.

But as exasperating as it is to have Ms. Late in your life, it’s equally painful to have Mr. Early.

My husband Hubby is in this category. He will time things to the minute. “The movie is at four. We have five stops to make before that, so estimating 15 to 20 minutes per stop, not counting traffic or unforeseen circumstances like a flat tire, we should leave after breakfast.”

Being too early or too late is a suffering, but it never seems to bother the person himself. It only affects the poor ones in their company who just do their best to show up when they’re supposed to.

I’d like to know how early in life this behaviour came into being. How does our internal clock leave one person unconcerned about time passing, and the other constantly aware of it? Look at my kids. My son is very laid back, and he didn’t arrive until nine days after his due date. My daughter, a spitfire (烈性子), arrived before her Christmas Day due date, so maybe it’s nature from the very beginning.

The one thing that does happen is that this behaviour has become part of the charm of the person you love. You can’t imagine Mr. Early ever being late or Ms. Late ever showing up early. As long as they show up.

【1】Why does the author mention Tinkerbell and Hubby?

A．To make comparisons.

B．To provide examples.

C．To explain a concept.

D．To introduce the topic.

【2】What can we infer about the author from this text?

A．She hates Mr. Early and Ms. Late.

B．She desires to change Mr. Early and Ms. Late.

C．She shows understanding to Mr. Early and Ms. Late.

D．She speaks highly of Hubby’s ability to time things accurately.

【3】What does the underlined word “exasperating” mean?

A．Annoying.

B．Boring.

C．Confusing.

D．Worrying.

【4】What’s the author’s purpose in writing this text?

A．To explain the importance of being on time.

B．To teach people how to stick to the schedule.

C．To share her views on Mr. Early and Ms. Late.

D．To discuss the origin of Mr. Early and Ms. Late.

27、I was telling my boy Sonny the story of the hare and the tortoise. In the end ,I said, “ Son, remember: Be slow and steady, and that will win the race. Don’t you think there’s something to learn from the tortoise?”

Sonny opened his eyes wide, “Do you mean next time when I’m entering for the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy, Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway?”

I was shocked, “But the tortoise didn’t wish that the hare would fall asleep!”

“He must have wished that,” Sonny said, “Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare? He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.”

“He didn’t have such a wish,” I insisted. “He won the race by perseverance (坚忍不拔的), by pushing on steadily.”

Sonny thought a while. “That’s a lie,” he said. “He won it because he was lucky. If the hare hadn’t happened to fall asleep, the tortoise would never have won the race. He could be as steady as you like, or a hundred times steadier, but he’d never have won the race. That’s for sure.”

I gave up. Today’s children are not like what we used to be. They’re just hopeless.

【1】The writer argued with his son because ______________.

A．he liked tortoises while his son liked hares

B．they disagreed about whether the tortoise was foolish

C．he tried to teach his son a moral (品德) lesson but the son had totally different opinion

【2】Sonny believed that the tortoise ______________.

A．won the race by his own hard working

B．took a risk by agreeing to run a race

C．was not given a fair chance in the race

D．in fact did win the race luckily

【3】Billy, Tony and Sandy must be_______________.

A．boys who were unknown to Sonny’s father

B．boys who Sonny has run races with before

C．boys who Sonny has never raced with before

D．boys who Sonny did not expect to race with again

【4】According to the passage, who do you think learnt a lesson?

A．The tortoise

B．Sonny

C．The hare

D．Sonny’s father

28、What an athlete eats before, during and after exercise is important for comfort and performance during exercise. While eating soon before exercise doesn’t provide what is needed for the activity, it can prevent hunger during exercise. What is needed for muscles is stored in the days before exercise. This is one reason that the post-exercise meal is very important to recovery and being ready for the next exercise.

Exercising on a full stomach is not a good idea. Food that remains in your stomach during an event may cause stomach upset. To make sure you have enough energy, yet reduce stomach discomfort, you should allow a meal to fully digest before the start of the event.

If you have an early morning race or exercise, it’s best to get up early enough to eat your pre-exercise meal. If not, you should try to eat or drink something easily digestible about 20-30 minutes before the event. The closer you are to the time of your event, the less you should eat. You can have a liquid (液体) meal closer to your event than a solid (固体) meal because your stomach digests liquids faster.

Because glucose (葡萄糖) is the energy source for most exercise, a pre-exercise meal should include foods that are high in carbohydrates (碳水化合物) and easy to digest. This includes foods such as fruit, bread, energy bars and drinks.

Planning is necessary if you are competing in an all-day event, such as track meets or other tournaments. You should plan ahead and prepare meals and snacks that you have tried before. Do not experiment with something new on the event day.

【1】To prepare for the next exercise, you should ________.

A．eat soon before exercise

B．eat during exercise

C．eat after exercise

D．eat nothing at all

【2】Fully digesting a meal before an event may ________.

A．cause stomach upset

B．give enough energy and stomach discomfort

C．give comfort and good performance during exercise

D．lead to hunger during exercise

【3】What can we learn from the passage?

A．You’d better have your pre-exercise meal after an early morning race.

B．Fruit and bread are high in glucose and easy to digest.

C．Planning is not necessary for track meets.

D．You can try something new for your meals on the event day.

【4】What is the passage mainly talking about?

A．Tips mainly for eating before exercise.

B．What to eat during exercise.

C．Fully digesting a meal before exercise.

D．Planning for your exercise.

29、Four Popular Places to Go This Winter

Harbin, China

China Harbin's winter is for the brave ones﹣the average temperature is 1.8°F﹣but those who brave the cold will be rewarded by experiencing one of the world's largest winter festivals. This year marks the 32nd Harbin International Ice and Snow Sculpture Festival (January﹣March), when massive frozen structures rise and are lit up, transforming the city into a winter wonderland.

Lyon, France

Paris may be called the City of Light, but every December, light takes center stage in Lyon, France's second﹣largest city. That's when the annual Festival of Lights (December 5﹣8)takes over, with more than 70 light installations that transform the city's streetscapes into modern works of art. The city is also home to two Christmas markets (one in La Croix﹣Rousse； the other at Place Carton； through December 25).

Lima, Peru

Peru's capital Lima is home to the world's highest number of cooking schools per person. Aside from its delicate dining, the city also has great cocktail bars where you can taste classic or contemporary takes on the Pisco Sour. Combine that with the oceanfront setting and temperatures in the 80s, and you'll understand why Lima should no longer be ignored this winter.

Vermont, US

Winter in Vermont means skiing and snowboarding. This year, many resorts have greatly upgraded their snowmaking abilities as part of a $15 million statewide program that replaced many outdated snow guns with new, low﹣energy models. These new machines will also improve the quality of snow surfaces and lengthen the season, meaning this will be one of the best winters for skiing and riding in Vermont in recent memory.

【1】What similarities do the first two places have？

A．They are decorated with lights.

B．They offer snow sculptures.

C．They have three﹣day festivals.

D．They are extremely cold.
