A
One Sunday, Nicholas, a teenager, went skiing at Sugarlaof Mountain in Maine. When he was planning to go home, a terrible snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he was lost, all alone! He didn’t have food, water, a phone or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.
Nicholas tried to calm down. He thought about all the survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.
He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed where he was. The first thing he did was to find shelter from the freezing wind and snow. If he didn’t, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him.
Using his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave (洞穴).
He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself to stay as warm as he could.
By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn’t lose too much water. After that, Nicholas huddled (蜷缩)
in his cave and slept.
The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldn’t find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave. On Tuesday, Nicholas went out to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. After two days stuck in the snow, Nicholas was saved.
Nicholas might not have survived his snowstorm if he hadn’t done so. He had often watched Grylls’ survival show Man vs. Wild. That’s where he learned the tips that saved his life. In each programme of Man vs. Wild, Grylls is abandoned in a wild area and has to find his way out.
Hearing about Nicholas’ amazing deeds, Grylls was super impressed(印象深刻旳)
that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.
1. Which is the correct order of the following things?_______
① Nicholas piled branches on top of himself to stay warm.
② Nicholas went out and was saved.
③ A snowstorm broke out and Nicholas got lost.
④ He gathered a lot of snow and built a snow cave.
⑤ After eating snow and drinking water, he huddled in the cave and slept.
A. ④③⑤①② B. ④③①②⑤ C. ③④①⑤② D. ③①④⑤②
2. Nicholas left Grylls a very deep impression because he_______
A. watched Grylls’ TV program regularly B. was hard-working and intelligent
C. created some tips for survival D. did right in dangerous situations
3. In the passage, the underlined word ‘abandoned’ most probably means_______
A. left behind B. hidden carefully C. followed secretly D. hurt badly
4. The best title for the passage may be________
A. Skiing Can Be Dangerous. B. Grylls’ Survival Show
C. The Boy Made It D. A Heavy Snowstorm

If you ask someone why he or she wears clothes, the answer will probably be “To keep warm and to cover my body”. These are the basic reasons why clothes are worn, but people also
want to look attractive(有吸引力) and appear successful to others.
If people only wore clothes for warmth and to cover their bodies, most clothing would be
simple and cheap. In many countries, however, clothing is sometimes very expensive. The
main reason for this is not the fabric(面料)
or the cost of making the clothes. The clothes are expensive because of fashion.
Successful businessmen, for example, often wear very expensive suits, shirts and ties.
Sometimes they pay thousands of dollars for a suit and hundreds of dollars for a tie. It’s still a suit and a tie but they pay these prices because of the famous name of the designer(设计师).
A suit costing much less would be just as warm and would cover the wearer’s body just as
well. Fashion is changing all the time, which means that people who want to be fashionable have to buy new clothes every few months, even if last month’s clothes have only been worn once or twice. Some people have many clothes that have hardly been worn but are no longer in fashion. So being fashionable can be a very expensive enjoyment!
5. What are the basic reasons that people wear clothes? _______
A. To cover their bodies and look attractive. B. To keep warm and appear successful.
C. To look attractive and appear successful. D. To keep warm and cover their bodies.
6. Unless people wear clothes for______, most clothing will be simple and cheap.
A. fashion B. warmth C. covering D. the fabric
7. What didn’t the writer tell us? _______
A. Clothes can meet (迎合)
people’s different needs. B. We should save money to buy expensive clothes.
C. It is expensive to keep fashionable.
D. The price of clothes is sometimes decided by the famous name of the designer.

Do you want to improve the way you study? Do you feel nervous before a test? Many students say that a lack of
concentration (注意力不集中)
is their biggest problem. It seriously affects their ability to study, so do their test results. Here are tips for you.
Study Methods
You should always study in the same place. You shouldn’t sit in a position that you use for another purpose. For
example, when you sit on a sofa to study, your brain will think it is time to relax. Don’t watch TV while studying. Experts warn that your concentration may be reduced by 50 percent if you attempt to study in this way. Always try to have a white wall in front of you, so there is nothing to distract (使分心)
you. Before sitting down to study, gather together all the equipment you need. Apart from your textbooks, pens,
pencils and knives, make sure you have a dictionary. If your study desk or table is needed when you are not
studying, store all your equipment in a box beside it.
Be realistic and don’t try to complete too much in one study period. Finish one thing before beginning another. If you need a break, get up and walk around for a few minutes, but try not to telephone a friend or have something to eat. Test-taking Skills
All your hard work will be for nothing if you are too nervous to take your test. Getting plenty of rest is very
important. Do not study all night before your test! Have a long-term study plan. Try to make a timetable for your study which lasts for a few months.
Exercise is a great way to reduce pressure and improve your concentration. Eat healthy food too.
When you arrive in the examination room, find your seat and sit down. Breathe slowly and deeply. Check the time on the clock during the test, but not too often. Above all, take no notice of everyone else and give the test paper your full attention. 12. The underlined word “in this way” refers to ______.
A. You always study in the same place.
