relationships between their classmates, i choose to focus on my school lessons and sports.when i was young，my mother encouraged me to develop and keep friendship with boys in order to build strong relationships. but she told me not to risk a good friendship with a boy with the title of boyfriend. its indeed a wise choice to stay friends with those of the opposite sex. in myopinion，even though some high school relationships might continue after graduation，the probability of them lasting much longer is so slim that there really is not a point to it.firstly you have to think about such a questionwhether it is possible to hurt both of you，or even hurt both of your future husbands or wives. my second point is that you still can date if youhope marriage could possibly follow. except this，there really is not any other reason for dating.some students desire relationships for a chance to be romantic.while these are nice to have，there are many more important things at this point in our livesthe titles of boyfriend put too much stress on a relationship between high school students. just staying as common friends may be the best choice for us. i strongly recommend we should deal with it in an appropriate way and follow our teachers advice if necessary.41.the author writes this passage probably for to read. ahigh school students bschool teacherscparents and teachers dmarried couples42.between sexes, the relationship of being good friends might be than that of being boy/girl-friends. aweaker bsafer cslimmer dstronger43.how does the writer like the idea of dating among the students?adating is a nice chance for students to be romantic.bstudying is far more important than dating in school.cin high school dating can surely lead to future marriage.ddating in high school is sure to hurt your future family.44.the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph might might refer to .athe title of boyfriend or girlfriend at school.badvice given by both teachers and parents.cthe pressure from school lessons and sports.dthe relationship between students of opposite sexesbone of the most popular american singers of the twentieth century was elvis presley. he made the rock n roll music popular all over the world. he sold millions of records and made many successful films, and he helped change the direction of popular music in the 1960s.elvis presley was born in a poor

called “country and western”.in 1955 he recorded some songs for his mothers birthday. the people at the recording studio liked his singing and his music. it was country and western music, but it also sounded a little like the music which black people used to sing in the american south. it was called “blues”.shortly after that, elvis met tom parker, who became his manger and arranged concerts for him across the united states and new recording as well. soon elvis became famous around the country. later elvis went to hollywood and began to appear in films such as love me tender and king creole.but elvis found it difficult to live with success, like many other famous people, he began to take drugs and his health started to suffer. when he died at an early age of 42 in 1977, millions of his fans were shocked, ”the king is dead!” the newspaper said. but today his memory and his music live on and will always be remembered as the king of rock n roll.45.from the passage, we can see

title for the passageasummer bchildren in summer csummer and children dsongs about summer d due to climate change, arctic ice is breaking up earlier in the spring, and its area is decreasing. this is creating problems for polar bears that make their homes off northern alaska and in hudson bay.polar bears off alaska normally hunt and raise their young on ice sheets that float on the ocean. but as the ice has melted, the polar bears have been forced to spend more time on land, where, they feed on the remains of whales caught by native hunters. for polar bears, this food is less nutritious than seals that they normally catch ice sheets. the shrinking(减少) ice has also forced more polar bears into the ocean. in the past, they only had to swim short distances between ice sheets. but as the ice has shrunk, polar bears have been forced to swim longer and longer distances in the ocean. this poses a severe danger during rough weather, and an increasing number of drowned polar bears have been observed.in hudson bay, the ice breaks up three weeks earlier in the spring now than it did 20 years ago. polar bears on hudson bay fast (绝食) during the summer, waiting for ice to form in the fall to hunt. every year, the summer gets longer, and the bears get skinnier. over the past25 years, the average weight of female bears has dropped 68 kg. this loss affects their ability to reproduce, and already the number of births has dropped 15 percent. unless the bears can learn to survive these climate changes, these giants of the ice may one day disappear.53.what is happening to arctic ice
