In China, the National Holiday is a big festival and it is to celebrate the founding of the People's Republic of China by Mao Zedong in 1949.Besides from the Spring Festival, the National Holiday is the only other week-long public break from school and work.
As one of the only opportunities for workers to go home, visit their families or to travel around the country, all hotels, tourist attractions, trains, buses and airplanes around the country are completely packed with holidaying Chinese people.
Are you sorry for not traveling during the National Day ? If you stay at home at that time, I think you are very lucky. Why? Because there are too many people everywhere. In many places of interest in China, it’s too crowded to do anything.
Look at the picture. It was too crowded on the Great Wall on October 1st, 2012. You even couldn’t take photos for you or your friends. All that we could see were people. It was reported that there were about twenty people per meter on the Great Wall. My friends told me they could see nothing but many people on the Great Wall. “We couldn’t walk if the people in front of us didn’t walk,” he said. He showed us a photo on the Great Wall. In the photo, we hardly found him out, there were too many people.
So some people give the advice that we should not have the gold week any more. But other people say no about this advice. What’s your idea of it? Are you sorry now for not traveling during the gold week? I love staying at home more than traveling next National Day.

解析试题分析:这篇短文中作者主要讲述了国庆长假期间各旅游景点人满为患的现状,并且作者表达了自己的观点,与其出去看“人海”;不如呆在家里好好休息。
【小题1】细节理解题。根据短文第三段第二句 If you stay at home at that time, I think you are very lucky. 可知作者认为如果没有出去旅游而是呆在家里是幸运的;故选C。
【小题2】推理判断题。根据短文第一段Besides from the Spring Festival, the National Holiday is the only other week-long public break from school and work.可知,除了春节之外,国庆节是另一个唯一的一周之久的长假;由此可推知,春节的假期应该在一到两周之间,即C项比较吻合;故选C。
【小题3】推理判断题。根据短文中In the photo, we hardly found him out, there were too many people.
可知要想从照片中找出好友是不容易的,A错误;作者好友的话“We couldn’t walk if the people in front of us didn’t walk,” 可表明B项的说法错误; It was reported that there were about twenty people per meter on the Great Wall.据报道在长城上每米距离的人数在20左右而不是30,C项错误;第四段第四句话All that we could see were people. 可知D项的描述是正确的;故选D。
【小题4】细节理解题。短文内容主要就是描述了国庆长假期间长城等旅游景点人满为患的情况,所以本文最可能的出处就是中国旅游网站,而不是中国公交、电影123或故事书屋等网站;故选C。

On the bus, on the subway, every head is lowered to a cell phone, iPad, or other digital device. But does this mean more and more people are getting into reading the digital way?
According to the National Reading Survey, before the 17th World Reading Day on April 23, only 1.2 percent of Chinese people said they read a lot. But 38.6 percent said they read on digital devices like cell phone and e-books. This is a 17.7 percent increase from 2010.
Many experts are talking about a trend toward fragmented reading ––reading many short messages or items on a digital device like a cell phone instead of one long text in a book.
Zhao jianmin, a professor at Shanghai University, said fragmented reading was part of modern life. “The fast pace of life leaves many people no time to sit and read a whole book,” he said. “So making use of fragmented time to read is sure to be a trend”
Fragmented reading has its advantages. People can enjoy large amounts of information, knowledge and entertainment in a short time. Digital reading is faster than traditional deep reading.
However, some experts fear the trend of digital reading will lead people to read in a simple way. Xu Guosheng, at a Chinese Academy of Press and Publication, says fragmented reading makes it harder for people to think more about what they read. He also warned fragmented reading could make people lazy about remembering facts because they know they can always just search for answers online.
“Fragmented reading is sometimes good, but don’t let it take all your time,” suggested Tian Zhilng, an editor. He said it was important to read quality books in a deeper way, and we should read for knowledge, for practical use and for pleasure. He suggested people choose easy books first, then move onto more difficult ones.
【小题1】How many disadvantages of fragmented reading have been mentioned?
A.1 | B.2 | C.3 | D.4 |
A.They should spend more time reading on digital device. |
B.They should spend days reading whole novels at a time. |
C.They should read both on digital devices and quality books. |
D.They should read a fun way instead of a traditional way. |
A.行走 | B.步骤 | C.节奏 | D.步测 |
A.Chinese people read in a simple way these days. |
B.Students should read more to get high marks. |
C.Reading on a digital device is harmful to health. |
D.People’s reading habits are changing. |
A.The results of a national reading survey. |
B.An explanation of a new trend in reading. |
C.The advice on how to read the digital way. |
D.A call to return to traditional deep reading. |

If you could see a movie of your life before you lived it, would you want to live it? Probably not. The excitement of living is that you don’t know what’s coming.
Sure, it’s hard to see uncertainty in such positive(积极的)light when you’re out of work, or when you feel like you’re failing. But uncertainty is really another word for chance.
When Allison graduated from Harvard, she had chances all over the place but had no idea what she wanted to do. She took a job in consulting(咨询), but she knew she wouldn’t stay there. She took the GRE and scored so high that she was able to increase her income(收入)by teaching students. Still, she didn’t think she wanted to go to graduate school. Allison knew she wasn’t doing what she wanted, but she didn’t know what she wanted.
She worried. All her friends were going to graduate school or starting their own businesses. She was lost and felt that she would never find anything out. After six years, Allison, by having a general(全面的)plan in mind, got married, moved to the Midwest, and used her consulting experience to get a great job. Allison realized that she spent her years finding her way: time well spent, and time we must all take if we’re being honest with ourselves.
The only way to lead an interesting life is to face uncertainty and make a choice. Otherwise your life is not your own—it is a path someone else has chosen. Moments of uncertainty are when you create your life, when you become who you are. Uncertainty usually begins with a job hunt, but it doesn’t end there. Every new role we take on means another round of uncertainty. Instead of fearing it, you should find some ways to deal with uncertainty.
【小题1】From the first two paragraphs, we can learn that .
A.being out of work is a sad thing |
B.uncertainty is what makes life interesting |
C.life in a film is more exciting than real life |
D.chance never appears when we need it |
A.She couldn’t find a well-paid job. |
B.She had no money to start a business. |
C.She was not sure what to do. |
D.She didn’t score high enough for graduate school. |
A.Uncertain. | B.Amazed. | C.Sorry. | D.Satisfied. |
A.How to deal with uncertainty. |
B.What role uncertainty plays in life. |
C.Why people fear uncertainty. |
D.Whom to go to when facing uncertainty. |

We all dream about things that we would like to do we hope to achieve in the future. But are everybody’s dreams the same? Here are some of the findings of a survey about hopes and dreams, in which thousands of students across China took part in it.
What are the hopes of teenagers?
We received several different answers to the question: what would you like to do after finishing your education? It seems some students would like to start work as soon as possible, so that they can help provide better lives for their parents. Other students hope to continue studying after finishing school and to go to university. Although money is important, many teenagers said they want to do jobs they enjoy. According to the survey, the most popular choice of job is computer programming.
What are the dreams of teenagers?
Teenagers have all kinds of dreams. Some are more realistic than others. For example, many students said they would like to be volunteers if Beijing could hold the World Cup, maybe working as translators or tour guides. And quite a few said they dream of going to the moon one day.
According to the survey, less realistic dreams are also common, but many students reported that they were willing to work hard to achieve their dreams. Quite a few dream of becoming famous, perhaps famous sports people or singers. Some said they’d like to go on exciting trips; one students said she’d love to sail across the Pacific Ocean. And then there are dreams that are impossible; three students said they’d like to be able to fly!
Conclusion It was clear from the survey that teenagers have similar hopes. It seems that most students hope to have a good education and find a good job. On the other hand, students dream of very different things: good things, and even crazy things. It is very important to dream, so hold on your dreams; one day they may just come true.

It was a cold day, but the students from Prosser Middle School in Chicago were sorting through the waste when they found that their school produces 1,500 pounds every day.
Prosser is just one school that throws out nearly 4,000 meal trays every day. Counting all of Chicago’s public schools, the number comes to nearly a quarter of a million a day. That’s more than 1 million a week and about 5 million a month.
“None of the trays are being recycled,” said a teacher. “ Everyone agrees that it’s very bad.”
Luckily, concerns about the environment and health have made some US cities take action. Dozens of schools have begun programs to reduce the use of food trays in school.
These schools have also banned (禁止)some fast food, including McDonald’s. Instead, they offer students recyclable trays. They encourage students to sort out lunchroom waste, then wash and recycle milk cartons and trays . So far, the program has helped schools to save a total of 820,000 trays each week.
Jay Stream Middle School in Illinois teaches its students how to collect trays. The school has cut its lunchroom waste by two thirds now that students recycle their used trays instead of breaking them.
Prosser Middle School also sees the benefits of the program. Students have organized about 20 clubs and volunteer activities to cut down on cafeteria garbage. They now recycle 80 percent of the school waste. “ I joined the club,” said Erika Santana, a 16-year-old junior in Prosser, “because I want to make Earth a better place.”
【小题1】Did Prosser Middle School create much garbage every day before the program ?
【小题2】How many meal trays do public schools in Chicago throw out a day?
【小题3】What does Jay Stream Middle School teach its students to do?
【小题4】Who joined the club?
【小题5】What’s the passage about ?
