Jeonju, South Korea Hundreds of traditional Korean houses remain in central Jeonjus Hanok village.4.

There are _ places in China inLonely Planets list of top destinations in Asia to visit in xx.A. 2 B. 3 C. 4 D. 5BI have been watching my daughters play sports since they were four, and have been shocked at how some parents in the crowd behave.At soccer games, when my girls were very young, parents would be screaming at their children to get their heads into the game, to charge, to “get” an opposing player, or to “kill it.” I understand parents want to encourage their children and their teambut at some point it bees too much.My daughter Grace is a high school and AAU (Association of American Universities) basketball player and a very good one at that. During a recent game, a parent sitting near me was shouting loudly to her daughter, standing up, expressing displeasure about the way her team was playing and, during halftime, speaking loudly about her personal life. After having her in my ear for more than half of the game, I was so put off that I had to move. Admittedly, I am the quiet parent at games. I clap for the schoolgirls when they make wonderful plays. For the most part, however, I remain silent. Shouting out makes them nervous. I asked Grace to weigh in on this, and she tells me: “Some parents bee extremely emotionally invested in sports games, which can bee a problem for the players. The worst thing is when people point out that crazy parent, and they dont know thats your parent.” I am all for parent spectators (观众)cheering on their children and the rest of the team. But I hope you can cheer your children on in a positive way. Shouting things like, “Wheres your head?” “Go after her!” is not, in my view, the way to cheer on high school students or younger children. If you have nothing positive to say, hold your tongue. If you find yourself struggling to keep it together, get some fresh air during halftime.4. Unable to stand the mother nearby, the author .A. told her to shut up B. found another seatC. asked Grace for help D. refused to talk to her5. In Graces opinion, crazy parents in the audience will make players feel .A. helpless B. impatient C. frightened D. ashamed6. The author is against parent spectators .A. keeping silent all the time B. saying unpleasant wordsC. cheering on the players D. leaving during halftimeCA lot of us enjoy doing it: you turn on the camera on your mobile phone and hold it at a high position, making your eyes look bigger and your cheekbones more marked out. You turn to your best side and click. There it is - your selfie. Over the past year, “selfie” has bee a well-known term across the globe. This August the Oxford dictionary added the word to their online dictionary and defined it as: “A photograph that one has taken of oneself, typically with a smart phone or webcam and uploaded to a social media website.” Today its not difficult to find social networking pages full of photos people have taken of themselves and their friends. And selfie culture has bee especially related to young people. As many as 91 percent of teenagers have posted photos of themselves online, according to a recent survey by the US Pew Research Center. So what are the reasons for the rise of selfie culture? “The craze of the selfie celebrates regular people,” Pamela Rutledge, a professor at the Massachusetts School of Professional Psychology, told Vogue magazine ,“There are many more photographs available now of real people than models.” Posting selfies also allows you to control your image online. “I like having the power to choose how I look, even if Im making a funny face,” Samantha Barks, 19, a high school student in the US, told Vogue. In addition, selfies “allow for a close friendship for long-distance friends, because you can see each others faces every day”, wrote Casey Miller at The Huffington Post. But US psychologist Jill Weber is concerned that selfies might lead to social problems. “Theres a danger that your self-esteem （自尊心） may start to be tied to the ments and likes you get when you post a selfie, and they arent based on who you are -theyre based on what you look like,” Weber told Vogue. “When you get nothing or a negative response, your confidence can plummet.” 7. The first paragraph is intended to _. A. introduce the topic of selfie B. describe how to enjoy selfie C. show the importance of selfie D. explain why selfie is popular 8. How many reasons for the rise of selfie culture are mentioned in the passage? A. OneB. TwoC. Three D. Four 9. What is Jill Webers opinion about selfies? A. ments on selfie are based on who you are. B. Others response to selfies might affect ones self-esteem. C. Selfies have more disadvantages than advantages. D. Selfies shouldnt be encouraged for they lead to social problems. 10. The underlined word “plummet” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to _. A. put upB. calm down C. pick up D. go downDIt is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education dont. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isnt accepted by all people.Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people dont need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and maths need not be taught in detail(详细地), either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human. Education is to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and take an interest in the world.I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.11. People with little education usually .A. spend a long time in school B. have a good chance to get a jobC. spend the best years to choose jobs D. have fewer chances to get a good job12. The earliest education was probably to .A. make a man lead a better life B. teach a man to write and readC. make people get a way of living D. teach people to read good books13.The underlined word “well-rounded” in the passage means “ “in Chinese. A. 圆满的 B. 崭新的 C公平的 D. 全面的14. It is expected that educated people will be able to .A. accept education as a way of living B. take an interest in the whole worldC. develop their abilities to make plays D. learn subjects like language and math15. The passage mainly tells us that .A. education should make a man improve B. people can get education in a short timeC. people should be able to get good paying jobs D. all subjects are so important for a way of living第二节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（ABCD）中，选出可以填入空白的最佳答案。“Daily Star, sir” called Jason, carrying some newspapers under his arm.

Making other people happy is the highest expression of success. 36 With that in mind, here are some suggestions that will immediately increase the amount of happiness in your life:37If theres any big truth about life, its that it usually lives up to your expectations. Therefore, when you rise from bed, make your first thought :“Something wonderful is going to happen today. ”Guess what? Youre probably right. Take time to plan and prioritize(优先处理). The most mon source of stress is the thought that youve got too much work to do. Rather than worry about it, pick one thing that will move you closer to your highest goal and purpose in life. Then do that first. Eat high quality food slowly. 38 Even so, at least once a day try to eat something really delicious, like a small chunk of fine cheese or an imported chocolate. Taste it, focus on it and enjoy it. Let go of your results. The big enemy of happiness is worry, which es from focusing on events that are outside your control. Once youve taken action, theres usually nothing more you can do. 39End each day with gratitude(感激). Just before you go to bed, write down at least one wonderful thing that happened. It might be something as small as making a child laugh or something as huge as a million dollar deal. 40A. Start each day with expectations. B. Give a gift to everyone you meet. C. Thinking about that thing makes your head hurt. D. Its impossible to make others happy if youre not happy. E. Whatever it is, be grateful for that day because it will never e again. F. Sometimes we cant avoid eating something quickly and running. G. Focus on the job at hand rather than some fantasy that might happen. 第 卷（非选择题，共50分）第四节：语法填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（不多于2个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。Have you ever noticed the chairs you sit 41 in cafes and restaurants?
