    One day, a teacher was giving a speech to his students. He held up a glass of water and asked the class, "How heavy do you think this glass of water is?"
    The students' answers ranged from 20 g to 500 g. "It does not matter on the weight itself. It depends on how long you hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it is OK. If I hold it for an hour, I will have an ache in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, you will have to call an ambulance (救护车). It is exactly the same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes. "
    If we carry our burdens (负担) all the time, sooner or later, we will not be able to carry on, the burden becoming increasingly heavier. "
    "What you have to do is to put the glass down, rest for a while before holding it up again. "
    We have to put down the burden sometimes, so that we can be refreshed and are able to carry on.
    So before you return home from work tonight, put the burden of work down. Don't carry it back home. You can pick it up tomorrow.
    Whatever burdens you are having now on your shoulders, let it down for a moment if you can.

    Peter is a sixth-grader at Woodland Primary School. He is only 12 years old but has been smoking for three years. John, 15, is a Junior 2 student at Woodland Secondary School. He began smoking four years ago. “Smoking is part of my life,” John said. Peter and John are not those boys’ real names. But their problem, smoking, is a very real problem. In many countries, smoking is becoming a bigger problem for young people. Most smokers start in their teens or earlier.
    A study of 8,000 London students shows that smoking is a problem for many British kids. More than 21% of middle school students and 6 % of primary school pupils said they smoked. “If young people start smoking early, it will be very hard for them to give up later on,” said a professor.
    Every year, about four million people die because of smoking. And if people keep smoking,  that number will go up to about ten million a year by 2030, the World Health Organization (WHO) says. So we have to learn and tell others about the dangers of smoking.
    小题1:The sentence “Smoking is part of my life” probably means “__________”
    A．I don’t smoke very often.
    B．Smoking is very important to me.
    C．I don’t smoke at all.
    D．I’m going to give up smoking.
    小题2:What will probably happen if a person starts smoking early?
    A．He will surely die early.
    B．He cannot stop smoking.
    C．It will be difficult for him to give up smoking.
    D．He will become lazy soon.
    小题3:The study in the passage shows that __________.
    A．smoking is a serious problem among British students
    B．there are more and more smokers in England
    C．some student smokers are having fun smoking
    D．most of smokers are young students
    小题4:The main idea of this passage is that__________.
    A．smoking is becoming a bigger problem for young people
    B．more and more people die because of smoking every year
    C．WHO asks young people to give up smoking
    D．we needn’t worry about the student smokers
    小题5:As middle school students, what should we do from now on?
    A．We should start smoking after middle school.
    B．We should ask others to smoke outside.
    C．We should laugh at smokers.
    D．We should say no to smoking.

    Will it matter if you don’t take your breakfast? A short time ago, a test was given in the US. People of different ages, from 12 to 83, were asked to have a test. During the test, these people were given all kinds of breakfast, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Scientists wanted to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten different kinds of breakfasts.
    The results show that if a person eats a right breakfast, he or she will work better than if he or she has no breakfast. If a student has fruit, egg, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen more carefully in class.
    The result is opposite to what some people think. Having no breakfast will not help you lose weight(减轻体重).This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch. They will gain weight (增加体重 )instead of losing it. You will lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.
    小题1:During the test, the people were given __________.
    A．no breakfast at allB．different foods or sometimes none
    C．very rich breakfastD．little food for breakfast
    小题2:The results show that _________.
    A．breakfast has great effect (影响) on work and studies.
    B．breakfast has little to do with a person’s work
    C．a person will work better if he only has fruit and milk.
    D．girl students should have little for breakfast.
    小题3:According to the passage, some people think that if you don’t have breakfast you will _______.
    A．be healthierB．work betterC．lose weightD．lose your way
    小题4: The word “reduce” in the last sentence means_________
    A．增加B．减少C．放弃D．享用

    There are 365 days in a year. We sleep 8 hours a day, so we have 122 days for sleeping. Then our work time has 243 days left. But there are 52 weekends in a year. Each weekend is two days.

    All around the world, people drink tea. But tea does not mean the same thing to everyone. In different countries, people have very different ideas about drinking tea.
    In China, for example, people always drink tea when they are getting together. They drink it at any time of the day at homes or in the teahouses. They prefer plain tea, with nothing else in it.
    Tea is also important in Japan. The Japanese have a special way of serving tea called tea ceremony（茶道）. It is very old and full of meaning. Everything must be done in a special way in the ceremony. There is even a special room for it in Japanese homes.
    Another tea-drinking country is England. In England, the late afternoon is “tea time”. Almost everyone has a cup of tea then. The English usually make tea in a teapot and drink it with milk and sugar. They also eat cakes, cookies and a few sandwiches at tea time. This is the so-called “Afternoon Tea” in Britain.
    In the United States, people drink tea mostly for breakfast or after meals. Americans usually use tea bags to make their tea. Tea bags are faster and easier than making tea in teapots. In summer, many Americans drink cold tea—“iced tea”. Sometimes they drink canned iced tea, just as soda.
    小题1:Tea is popular________.   
    A．all around the world
    B．only in the United States
    C．only in English-speaking countries
    D．in Japan, China and other Asian countries
    小题2:The Chinese drink tea ________.
    A．for breakfast
    B．at any time of the day
    C．only in teahouses
    D．in a special ceremony
    小题3:The English like to drink their tea ________.  
    A．in a special room
    B．with dinner
    C．with cakes and cookies
    D．when they are free
    小题4:“They prefer plain tea, with nothing else in it.” The word “plain” here means ________.
    A．朴素的B．平坦的C．单纯的 D．直率的
    小题5:In this passage, which country’s way of drinking tea isn’t mentioned（提及）?
    A．EnglandB．AmericaC．JapanD．India
