But have you ever thought about the history of the

15、 schoolbag?In the Han Dynasty (汉朝), students in old-style private schools used bamboo boxes to carry books to school. People consider the bamboo boxes to be the earliest schoolbags. They were usually two or three layers (层) in the box. Kids put different things like books, brushes, ink stones (砚) an

16、d paper in the boxes.Hundreds of years later, people developed a new kind of schoolbag called the budai, or the hip-pocket. The budai was lighter than the bamboo box. With the founding (成立) of the Peoples Republic of China, military rucksacks (军用帆布包) became popular. Many people carried them when the

17、y were in school. Ask your grandparents or parents about these bags.

No matter how many friends you might already have, it is always a good idea to make new friends.Being shy keeps a lot of people from making friends. Also, making friends might need a person to st

22、ep outside of their comfortable places, which are hard for a lot of people, whether they are shy or not. However, overcoming the shyness to step out of your box is an important step in making friends.There are lots of ways to meet new friends. First of all, remember that a good friendship is based o

23、n interests, so if you are ready to make friends, start to join clubs or go places where you have interest. For instance, if you like to play sports, join a sports team or after school sports club. If you have interests in music or writing, join clubs or organizations that you are interested in. Whe

24、n you see someone in a place like that, and you think that they look nice, it is always a good idea to go up to them and introduce yourself and ask interesting questions so that you can start a conversation. Dont put too much pressure on yourself, and remember that friendships dont always happen qui

25、ckly.Some friendships happen right away, and youll be able to tell if someone will be a great friend right after you meet them. Some friendships take a long time to develop. Anyway, the friends that you meet are going to be worth it. If a friendship develops quickly, it doesnt mean that it is extra

26、valuable, and if a friendship takes a long time to develop, it doesnt mean that it isnt worth it because its too hard.Making friends might be a bit difficult for you, and the friends you will make may not look anything like you. However, even though it might be scary to start conversations, you are

27、worth doing it. All friendships start with a single hello.1From the passage, its _ to make friends for most people.Aeasy BconvenientCimpossible Ddifficult2If you want to make friends, you should _.Aask your parents for helpBgo out of your own boxCobey others requestsDtalk more with shy persons3What

30、 happen?C15、London used to be “foggy” the “fog” was in fact smog, amixtureof smoke and fog. In other words, it was caused by air pollution. In London, some of this pollution came from factories, but a lot of it came from the coal that people burnt in their houses to keep warm during the winter. By t

31、he 1950s, Londons smog problem had become so bad that the government decided to do something to clean up the air. It didnt allow people to born coal in any British city. A few years later, the air became much cleaner.Today many Chinese cities face the same problem with air pollution that London face

32、d sixty years ago. However, this problem is more difficult for Chinese cities to solve. One reason is that more of pollution comes from big factories, rather than from the coal burnt in peoples houses. If these factories were suddenly closed, it would harm the economy and lots of people would lose t

33、heir jobs. Another reason is that changing from coal to cleaner fuels is quite expensive. However, the air in many cities will become cleaner, as the government and ordinary people pay more and more attention to protecting the environment.1（小题1）Where was the pollution from in London over sixty years

34、 ago?AThe pollution came from factories.BThe pollution was from coal that people burnt in their houses.CThe pollution was from too much traffic on the roads.DThe pollution was from factories and coal that people burnt in their houses.2（小题2）How was the air in London after the government didnt allow p

DIt was stormy.3（小题3）What is the main idea of the second paragraph?AIn most of Chinese cities there is smog.BThe reasons of smog in China.CThe reasons of why its difficult for China to solve “smog”.DWhat d

Google engineers have discovered that even 400 millisecondsas short as the blink of an eyeis too long for most Internet users.A millisecond is one thousa

38、ndth of a second. People hardly notice such a small time difference, but it does cause them to stop searching, reported The New York Times. “Without question, nobody likes to wait,” said Arvind Jain, a Google engineer. “Every millisecond matters.”Nowadays, millions of smart-phones and computers are

39、continually gathering and sending out information. With so many people downloading maps, sports videos, news and restaurant recommendations, you can get digital “traffic jams”. Meanwhile, users are expecting faster and faster service.Google found that if one website is 250 milliseconds slower than a

40、nother website, then people will visit it less often. This is why technology companies are now competing to be the fastest. Google said people do expect different things from different websites because they realize not all loading times are the same. For example, a person will be more patient waitin

41、g for a video to load than for a search result.Even so, four out of five online users will click away if a video takes too long to load. This makes it difficult for video websites to choose between the quality of pictures and fast loading times.Trying to get a higher speed has always been part of th

42、e history of the Internet. In the 1990s, when the World Wide Web first started to become popular, it was very crowded and slow; people called it the “World Wide Wait”. But engineers managed to fight the problem with new inventions. They laid a lot of fiber optic cables (光缆)for sending in high speed;

43、 they improved software so it would work more smoothly; they placed computer servers all around the world to be nearer to users; all this increased speed.Nowadays we can enjoy much faster Internet. Famous search engines such as Google and Microsofts Bing usually find search results in less than a se

44、cond._1The report from The New York Times suggests thatAA millisecond is one thousandth of a second.B400 milliseconds is not so long for most Internet users.CA millisecond has nothing to do with the Internet speed.DA millisecond really makes a difference to the Internet users.2The engineers did some

45、thing to improve the speed, including _.a. making software work more smoothlyb. laying a number of fiber optic cables insidec. placing computer servers throughout the worldd. developing the quality of pictures on the InternetAa b c Bb c d Ca c d Da b d3Which of the following is true according to the

46、 passage?AThe quality of pictures comes first for video websites.BGoogle is 250 milliseconds slower than other websitesCMicrosofts Bing is the fastest engine the world nowDPeople are more likely to wait for loading films than maps4What does the underlined sentence mean?AInternet users are willing to

47、 see more search engines set upBGoogle and Microsofts Bing should help find the searching resultsCThese companies should mind their steps, or they will break down soon.DThese companies need to catch up with the developing needs of Internet users5What can be the best title of this passage?ADont make

He was a bright thirteen-year-old boy with a strong, healthy body. His father was a brave man who had died during a food shortage. His father tried to s

49、ave the lives of his people by fighting a giant polar bear. The meat from the bear kept the people from hunger.Keesh was his only son, and he lived alone with his mother.

50、night there was a meeting in the chiefs large house. At that meeting, Keesh showed how much courage he had. He rose to his feet and went on steadily, “Because my father, Bok, brought home more meat than any other hunter, everyone received a fair share, but now my mother and I were given meat filled

51、with bones.” The hunters were shocked to hear a child speak to them that way.Keesh waited calmly until the shouting died down. “My mother has no one except me, and therefore I must speak. My father put his life in danger and died, to offer food to this village. It is only right that I, his son and h

52、is wife should have enough good meat as long as there is plenty of good meat in this village. I, Keesh, the son of Bok, have spoken.” He sat down. They threatened to punish him by not giving him any food at all. Keeshs eyes flashed(闪烁) and the blood pounded(冲击) under his skin, he jumped to his feet.

53、“Listen to me, you men!” he shouted. “I shall never speak in this meeting againnot until you come to invite me to speak. My father was a great hunter, and so will I be.”They laughed and shouted at Keesh. But Keesh said nothing more. He walked away with his head raised, looking neither to the left no

Today I am going to tell

56、 you something about manners in different countries. I think you already know that people in different countries usually have different ways of doing things.Something that is rude in one country may be quite polite in another. For example, in Britain you mustnt lift your bowl to your mouth when you

57、are having liquid food(流质食物). That is considered bad manners in Britain. But in Japan you neednt worry about making a noise when you drink something. It shows that you are enjoying it. In Britain we try not to put our hands on the table at all during a meal. In Mexico, however, guests are expected t

58、o keep their hands on the table throughout a meal. In Arabic countries we must be careful with our hands. You see, in Arabic countries you mustnt eat with your left hand. This is considered to be very impolite. So, what should you do if you visit a foreign country?Well, you neednt worry. You can ask the natives(本地人) there to
