【題目】The Silk Road is the name of different roads that long ago connected Europe, Africa and Asia. People reached these different places along these roads. Scientists believe people began to travel the Silk Road about 3000 years ago. By the time the Chinese silk trade became important in the world, the Silk Road covered almost 6500 kilometers. It spread from Rome to China, which is from the West to the Far East.

These included people and trading goods from the Mediterranean, Persian, Magyar, Armenian, Bactrian, Indian and Chinese areas. All these peoples travelled the Silk Road, and they shared goods, stories, languages, and cultures.

In modem times, the old Silk Road routes(路線）are still used, but now they are crossed by trains instead of camels and horses. There is even a Silk Route Museum in Jiuquan in China.

More sleep can help improve athletes’ performance

If you’re an athlete in training, you may need more sleep.

“Just as athletes need more energy when they’re in training, they need more sleep, too.” said David Geier, a scientist from Charleston, South Carolina. “You’re pushing your body in practice, so you need more time to recover (恢復(fù)).”

Athletes in training should sleep about an hour more than usual. “You can go to sleep earlier, or take an afternoon nap (午睡),” Ceier said, “Not getting enough sleep not only makes you feel tired but also has a big influence on what’s happening inside your body.”

Felicia Stoler, a sports expert in New Jersey, agrees. “A good sleep is the time when your body repairs itself,” she said. “If we don’t get enough sleep, we won’t perform well.”

Many researches also support their opinions. Experts spent several months researching the basketball team of Stanford University. During the period, the players added almost 2 hours to their usual sleeping time every night. As a result, the players increased their speeds by 5%. And they felt happier. Other researches have shown the similar results from football-players and other athletes.

【題目】 There was a time when hot summer days brought children outdoors to local rivers to catch minnows (米諾魚). Walking in cool rushing water to catch the small, silver fish was a fun chance on a hot summer's day. Before setting out for the river in their neighborhood, however, children first had to look for a bag. Both boys and girls loved this outdoor activity a lot.

While reaching the side of the river, the children pulled off their shoes and socks and put their feet first into the cold water. Walking carefully in the water, they looked for the right place where the minnows flashed (閃光). Catching minnows was very easy if two children worked together. Taking two corners of the bag, each child stood in the water and slowly lowered the bag until it was at the bottom of the river. Then, standing very still (靜止的), the children waited for the fish in the river to do normal activity. The children would again get a corner of the bag in each hand and raise the bag straight up quickly, keeping it as level as possible. Lots of tiny silver fish would cover the bag.

The joy of catching minnows is that, once caught, the fish are thrown back into the water to continue their natural lives. Perhaps they will be taken up by other children and then return to their watery home again. So the bag is lowered back into the river, and the small fish swim off. Then the whole process is repeated once more as more minnows are caught and then released (釋放).

【1】Why did children first have to look for a bag?

A. They looked for something to protect themselves.

B. They looked for the tool to catch fish.

C. They had to use the bag to take the fish home.

D. They had to use the bag to divide the fish.

【2】What does the second paragraph mainly tell us?

A. Why the children catch minnows.

B. Why the children like playing in the water.

C. When the children go to the river.

D. How the children catch minnows.

【3】What does the underlined word “l(fā)owered” mean in Chinese?

A. 把……混合B. 把……擦掉C. 把……放低D. 把……分開

【4】How do the children deal with the fish they catch?

A. They throw them back into the water.B. They take them home and cook them.

C. They keep them as pets.D. They sell them for money.

【題目】According to the 2018 World Happiness Report, Denmark(丹麥）ranked (排名）No.3! And it’s not surprising at all! In 2016, Denmark ranked No.l , then No.2 in 2017. In fact, Denmark has been on the list for many years. Why? Because people who live in Denmark know the secret to happiness— “hygge”. But what is “hygge”？

The Danish(丹麥的）word “hygge” (pronounced “hoo-ga”）is often translated in English as “coziness”. But “hygge” is more than that. It's also about spending peaceful time in a quiet environment with no calendar. It’s about spending time alone or spending time with family.

Danish people are very good at “hygge”. For example, they create a “ hygge” environment by burning candles in classrooms, kitchens, bedrooms, etc. According to some reports, Danish people bum more candles every year than people from any other European country.

However, “hygge” isn’t just about creating a nice and warm environment; it is best enjoyed with family members and friends. With up to 17 hours of darkness every day in winter, Danish people spend more time indoors as a result, and they often get together for a meal or hot drinks, without the distraction(使人分心的事物）of technology or the stress of daily life.

Still can’t understand what “hygge” is? If you’re reading this in a comfortable chair, with a few candles around you, that sense of coziness you're feeling might just be “hygge”.

【1】In the World Happiness Report, Denmark used to rank No.____ in 2016.

A. 1B. 2C. 3D. 17

【2】How do Danish people create a “hygge” environment?

【題目】閱讀以下短文，根據(jù)短文后的要求答題。答案不超過5個詞

Like many other primary school pupils, nine-year-old Minnal went abroad with her parents during the recent school holidays. It may come as a surprise to learn that she neither shopped at a mall nor ate at a fancy restaurant. She climbed a mountain.

For eight days in May, Minnal hiked nearly 100 kilometres to reach the 5364-metre-high Everest(珠穆朗瑪峰) base camp in Nepal. The girl talked about her special trip, “I thought this was the most meaningful trip for me.” It has not been confirmed(證實) if the Primary Four pupil is indeed the youngest Singaporean to reach the base camp, as no such records are kept.

Everest’s south base camp in Nepal is where climbers planning to climb the world’s highest peak, stay to get used to the altitude(海拔高度). However, Minnal can’t climb the peak(山峰), because climbers have to be at least sixteen years old to climb the peak.

How did it all start? It all began last year when Minnal’s mother decided she might want to climb the famous Himalayas. As a good hiker, she asked both father and daughter if they were up for the challenge. On 20 May, 2016, the family flew to Nepal.

Minnal shared that most of the eight days were spent hiking ten to fifteen kilometres from 8a.m. to 6 p.m. each day, with the help of three local guides. Luckily, she added, nobody fell ill with altitude sickness. She also said that she is thinking of climbing Everest in the future.

【1】What did Minnal do during her stay abroad?

_________________________________________

【2】How long does Minnal have to wait to climb the Everest’s peak?

_________________________________________

【3】Who helped the family to make sure they didn’t lose their way?

_________________________________________

【4】What did Minnal think of the climbing?

_________________________________________

【5】When did Minnal’s family fly to Nepal?
