Today it is found that school students hardly pay much attention to sports. Is it because they aren’t interested in sports? No. They often say they have other more important things to do.
What are these important things? Examinations! Students have to spend much time on all kinds of examinations at school. So many of them almost become bookworms (書呆子). Books stop them from doing sports. Because of the pressure from their parents and teachers, the students have to work harder and spend most of their time on books. As for (就……而言) the students, they want to get good results so that they can improve their studies. So it is necessary（必要） for them to give all of their free time to their studies and stop their school sports
In fact, education can’t go without physical (身體的) exercises, because a quick mind hardly goes along with a weak body. If you don’t have a strong body, you can never get anything, let alone (更不用說) a great success in your life.
1.       are the greatest problems, so the school students don’t pay much attention to sports now.
A. No interest     B. Exercises     C. Education     D. Examinations         
2. The underlined word “pressure” means “        ”.

A. good face      B. weak body   C. strong body      D. good father
4. The writer thinks the students should          .
A. work hard all day and all night
B have all kinds of sports after studying
C. do not have sports
D. spend the free time on the studies and give up (放棄)the sports.

C. If you have a weak body, you will have a hard mind.
D. If you want to be successful in your life, you must have a strong body.

What do you do if you're stranded（處于困境的）on a lonely island? Surely you need to find a way to get in touch with the outside world. Your best chance of doing this is to draw the attention of a passing plane.
　　Body signals（信號(hào)）
　　Pilots from different countries understand body signals if they have the correct training. When you wave your arms up and down in a straight line, it means "yes". When you point downwards and swing your arm from side to side, it means "no". If you want the pilot to know that it's safe to land, push your hands out in front of you and bend（彎曲）your knees. If you want to say that it's not safe to land, put your arms in the air and move them to one side.
　　Smoke signals
　　The smoke from a fire can be seen from far away, so it's a good way to draw attention. If the weather is dry, it isn't hard to start a fire. Remember, however, that fires can be very dangerous if they get out of control. Never light a fire unless you're sure that it can't spread. If the ground is dark, light smoke can be seen more easily. Green grass and leaves produce light smoke.
　　Ground-to-air signals
　　It's a good idea to build some signals, too. Use large pieces of wood to make the symbols(標(biāo)記). If you can't find any wood, use earth. Some useful symbols are:
　　F "I need food and water."
　　II "I need medicine."
　　I "I am badly hurt."
　　X" I am unable to move from here."
　　Pilots' replies
　　If the pilot lowers the plane's wings from side to side, this means "message received and understood". (At night, the pilot flashes the plane's green lights.) If the pilots flies the plane in a clockwise circle, this means "message received but not understood".(At night, the pilot flashes the plane's red lights.)
However, there is no signal which means "message not received". Why not?
小題1: Which picture means "it's not safe land"?

　
小題2: What can we learn from the passage?
A．Swinging your arm from side to side means "yes".
B．If the ground is dark, light smoke can't be seen.
C．If you need some medicine, make a symbol "II".
D．The pilots make replies with a blue light at night.
　　小題3: What is the passage mainly about?
A．The explanation of building signals on an island.
B．The importance of making signals on an island.
C．Ways of sending out signals on a lonely island.
D．Ways of receiving signals from a lonely island

Tokyo, March 11, 2011

People left their houses near Sendai, northern Japan on March 11th.
A man and child look out over destroyed homes after a tsunami(海嘯) and earthquake.
Nuclear crises(核危機(jī)) in Japan’s power plants(核電站).

Lin, 26, has been in Japan for three months, working as a software engineer in Shinagawa, Tokyo. Lin stayed with others in a bus station all afternoon.

Jess really felt very happy. When he arrived at his seat in the classroom that morning, he found an invitation（請(qǐng)柬）on his desk. It was from some of his classmates asking him to join their camping trip. This was the first time he was asked to join in an out-of-school activity. Why were they asking him now? Nobody seemed（似乎）to like him. In fact, he had been so lonely (孤獨(dú)) that he ate a lot to make himself feel less lonely. As a result, he had put on a lot of weight, and this gave the children something more to make fun of him.
Cindy, who was standing near Jess when he read the invitation, went out quickly to tell the others that the trick had worked. Everyone was happy that Jess thought that was true. But there was no camping trip. The whole thing was made up.
At first, Cindy thought it was fun. But later, when Jess told her that he was going to buy a sleeping bag with his pocket money, Cindy had a second idea. She knew that Jess’s family had little money, and she hated to see him spend his pocket money on something he would never use. Cindy also hated to tell Jess the truth (真相). Her close friends would be unhappy with her.
What could she do now?
小題1:What would happen if Cindy told Jess the truth?
A．Jess would go on the camping trip himself.B．Jess’s family would be unhappy with Cindy.
