Hannah Levine decided she wanted to give hugs to all of the children and families in need at local hospitals.
Because she couldn't give them hugs one by one, Levine, then a sixth­grader, decided she would use her talents (才能) to do the next best thing. She began to knit (编织) hats, scarves, and blankets for families staying at the Ronald McDonald House at Stanford. Her creations also went to Bundle of Joy, a programme that provides newborn baby items for families in need, and to Knitting Pals by the Bay, a local organisation that provides hand­knitted caps to cancer patients.
“I love to knit, and I thought it would be a great idea to make all these handmade items for kids and adults who need them. It would be like a hug for them，” Levine explained.
Levine started the project about a year ago. “I think it's just really fun to do, and it keeps me busy，” said Levine, now 13.
Once she got started, Levine realised that her project could be much bigger than the goods she was able to produce with just her own hands. So she sent emails to her school and communities, asking for knitted donations (捐赠物) to the project, she named “Hannah's Warm Hugs”. She also posted advertisements at Starbucks and other locations in her area. The warm goods began to pour_in.
“It was amazing; more strangers than people she knew started dropping donations at our door，” said Levine's mother, Laura Levine. “We ended up with this huge box of items she was donating.”
The knitted items numbered in the hundreds. Levine made her first round of donations around Hanukkah (an eight­day Jewish holiday in November or December) and later received thank­you letters from the organisations. Levine is still knitting, and she said the project will continue.
“It has turned into a bigger thing than she had thought，” her mum said. “It made her feel pretty good; it made us feel pretty good.”
24．Hannah Levine knitted hats, scarves and blankets ________.
A．to earn some pocket money
B．to raise money for cancer patients
C．for children and families in difficulty
D．for the homeless in her neighbourhood
25．What can the underlined part “pour in” in Paragraph 5 best be replaced by?
A．Take off. B．Go out. C．Flood in. D．Break in.
26．What would be Laura Levine's attitude towards Hannah Levine's project?
A．Optimistic but worried. B．Proud and supportive.
C．Worried but doubtful. D．Unsatisfied and uncaring.
27．What would be the best title for the text?
A．Be Ready to Lend a Helping Hand
B．Start a Project to Show Your Support
C．A 13­year­old Girl Becomes the Best Knitter
D．A Teen Turns Knitting Hobby into Heartwarming Project

C
The British live on a small island. They are surrounded by the sea, so it is not surprising that the sea has always played an important role in their lives. After the development of large, ocean­going sailing ships in the fifteenth century, the sea became even more important to the country's development. Ships setting sail from England determined to extend Britain's territories, its wealth and its knowledge of the world Ships returned to England bringing goods, people and new ideas from foreign places. By the nineteenth century, Britain had the largest, most powerful navy in the world.
The great sailing ships were so much a part of British life that they even affected the language. Many English expressions we use today were originally nautical (航海的) terms, although most people no longer realize this. For example, people commonly describe an honest and fair business deal as being “above board”. This expression was originally used in sailing ship times when secretive, dishonest ship's business would be carried out below decks (i.e. below the boards) out of public view. On the other hand, honest business was always conducted on deck (above the boards), in the open where everyone could see what was going on.
“Pipe down！”， meaning “Be quiet！”， is another common expression that has nautical origins. The ship's boatswain (水手长) would blow a whistle, or pipe, at the end of the day to indicate (表明) to the sailors it was time to quieten down and go to sleep.
Most native English speakers have heard the expression “not enough room to swing a cat”， but few know that the “cat” does not refer to a small furry animal with four legs and a tail. The “cat” is actually a short form of “cat of nine tails”—a whip with nine, knotted (打结的) tails. A boatswain needed a lot of space in order to swing the whip properly when lashing (鞭打) a poor sailor under his control!
28．The British have been strongly influenced by the sea because ________.
A．they occupied more land around the world
B．they got more wealth from the sea
C．they live on an island surrounded by the sea
D．they had the largest navy ever
29．If someone is open and above board, it means he is ________.
A．secretive B．honest C．cheerful D．dishonest
30．What can we conclude from the passage?
A．Sailors need to go to sleep when they hear a whistle.
B．Sailors will be whipped if they do business below decks.
C．A poor sailor may be whipped nine times a day.
D．There is no spare room to raise cats on ships.
31．The passage is mainly about ___
A．the business on British sailing ships
B．the influence of British sailors' language on English
C．the sailing history of England
D．the sailing story of British sailors

D
Many adults rely on caffeine to get them through the day. But that's the last thing kids need, according to the governments of England and South Korea.
England woke up to the news that the government is preparing to ban the sale of energy drinks like Red Bull to children.
The ban only applies to England, but Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland can all follow suit if their administrations wish. In March, several major supermarket chains announced they would ban the sale of energy drinks to children under 16. Meanwhile, South Korea announced plans to ban the sale of coffee in schools by September 14.
The first reason for the ban is the high level of caffeine in the energy drinks, which has been linked to health problems for children, including head and stomach aches, as well as sleep problems.
A 250ml can of Red Bull contains about 80mg of caffeine, roughly the same as a similarly sized cup of coffee, but three times the level of Coca­Cola. Monster Energy, which is often sold in larger cans of 500ml, contains 160mg of caffeine.
Energy drinks often also have higher levels of sugar than soft drinks. Sugared energy drinks have 60% more calories and 65% more sugar than normal soft drinks and sugar is one of the largest causes of obesity.
British national official for education, Darren Northcott, described the drinks as “legal highs” that helped to fuel bad behavior in schools.
In addition to limiting kids' access to caffeine and energy drinks, the South Korean government has also banned TV commercials for fast food, sugary snacks and high­caffeine beverages during times when most children's programs air.
South Koreans drink an average of 181 cups of coffee a year, by far the most in Asia. That is more than the 151 consumed per person in the UK but less than the average of 266 cups in the US.
32．Which part of the UK will be the first to ban the sale of energy drinks to children under 16?
A．England. B．Scotland. C．Wales. D．Northern Ireland.
33．What is the relationship between Paragraph 4 and Paragraph 5?
A．Paragraph 5 provides numbers for Paragraph 4.
B．They are parallel.
C．Paragraph 4 presents an argument.
D．Paragraph 4 provides reasons for Paragraph 5.
34．What does the underlined word “fuel” in Paragraph 7 mean?
A．Reduce. B．Settle. C．Encourage. D．Ignore.
35．What is the best title for the text?
A．Caffeine in Energy Drinks
B．Reasons for the Ban on the Sale of Energy Drinks
C．Coffee Sales in the UK and South Korea
D．England and South Korea Ban Caffeine for Kids

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Have you ever wanted to travel in space? In a way you already do, because you live on Earth, and Earth is a planet floating in space. __36__ They are a whole family of planets that scientists call our solar system.
The word “solar” means “having to do with the Sun”. The planets in our solar system all circle the Sun in paths called orbits. __37__ It doesn't take them as long to travel around the Sun. Planets farther from the Sun have longer orbits. It takes Earth about 365 days—one year—to travel around the Sun.
__38__ They all spin, or rotate. It takes Earth 24 hours, or one day, to spin around one time. As Earth spins, the parts that face the Sun are lit up—it is daytime there. The parts that face away from the Sun are dark－it is nighttime.
If you could visit the other planets, you would find some strange and surprising worlds. Some are dry and rocky, while others are balls of swirling gases with solid centers. Some planets are much hotter than Earth－so hot that nothing can live there. __39__ Other planets are far away from the Sun. They are very, very cold—colder than any place on Earth.
__40 It is not too hot and not too cold. Earth has water to drink and air to breathe. Earth is the only planet in our solar system where plants and animals and people can live.
A．There are other planets, too.
B．That's because they are so close to the Sun.
C．Earth is just the right distance from the Sun.
D．The planets are alike in another important way.
E．Planets that are closer to the Sun have shorter orbits.
F．As we have already known, the earth goes around the sun.
