2.They say there are three ways to experience the Grand Canyon(科罗拉多大峡谷):on foot,on mules (骡子) or by air.We chose the first.Up early,my husband and I and our three children couldn't wait to get started.We decided to walk along a lovely path named Bright Angel Trail.
As we set out,I was shocked at how narrow the path was.And I couldn't help noticing that the other tourists weren't like us.They had heavy backpacks,water bottles,and hats.But as usual we were dressed.As the sun rose higher,Arizona's famous heat seemed to roast (烘烤) us.There was no shade and our legs were aching.We decided to go back,with the girl on my back and the boys far behind.By the time we finally got back,we were weak.
The next day,after we'd had a long rest and a good breakfast,we were ready for another view of the Canyon by air.After our last walk,this would be the easiest thing in the world.
We called to each other excitedly as the plane took off and circled around the Canyon.But the smiles on our faces disappeared as the pilot tossed (翻转) the plane around,pretending he was going to hit the ground.I shouted,"STOP,TAKE US BACK!"When we finally arrived back on land,once again our legs were like jelly(果冻).We hardly spoke as we drove back.
As I said,there are three ways to view the Grand Canyon.We never tried the mules,but personally I'd suggest a fourth:buy yourself a good magazine like National Geographic.That way,you can see the Canyon,without fear or tiredness.

A.1

B.It was too hot in Arizona.
C.There were no shade and their legs wore out.

A.Comfortable          
B.Relaxing.  
C.Frightening         
D.Interesting.

13.March 21has been declared World Sleep Day,a time to recognize and celebrate the value of sleep.Many sleep experts hope it will be a wake-up call.
According to a 2013poll(民意调查) by the National Sleep Foundation,nearly 4in 5Americans don't get as much sleep as they should during the workweek.On average,adults are thought to need at least eight hours of sleep a night,although some can manage with less and some won't do well without more.But the survey found that,on workdays,only 21% of Americans actually get a full eight hours of sleep,and another 21% get less than six.
To many of us,the thought of spending more time sleeping is,well,a big yawn.On the other hand,the thought of being smarter,thinner,healthier and more cheerful has a certain appeal.And those are just a few of the advantages that can be ours if we consistently get enough sleep,researchers say.Also on the plus side:We're likely to have better skin,better memories,better judgment,and,oh,yes,longer lives.
"When you lose even one hour of sleep for any reason,it influences your performance the next day,"says Dr.Alon Avidan,director of the UCLA Sleep Disorders Center.
A study published last year found the same to be true even of children.When kids aged 8to 12slept for just one hour less for four nights,they didn't function as well during the day.
But sleeping has an image problem."We see napping or sleeping as lazy,"says Jennifer Vriend,a clinical psychologist in Ottawa,Canada,and the leading author of the study with children."We put so much emphasis on diet,nutrition and exercise.Sleep is in the back seat."In fact,she adds,no matter how much we work out,no matter how well we eat,we can't be in top physical shape unless we also get plenty of sleep.

56.The underlined part in Paragraph 1meansC.
A.to wake up the sleepers
B.to serve as a morning call
C.to draw people's attention
D.to declare the special day
57.Which of the following is True according to Paragraph 2?B
A.People can do well without enough sleep.
B.Adults need at least eight hours'sleep a day.
C.Only one-forth of Americans have enough sleep.
D.One-fifth of American adults sleep less than children.
58.From Paragraph 3we can infer thatC.
A.being healthier is one of the advantages for us
B.sleeping has nothing to do with one's expectations
C.enough sleep is the guarantee of the appealing things
D.spending more time on sleeping is a waste of time
59.What Jennifer Vriend said in the last paragraph implies thatA.
A.people care little about sleeping
B.sleeping is an image problem
C.lazy people tend to sleep long
D.sleeping is only part of our life
60.What is the purpose of the passage?D
A.To talk about people's sleeping problems.
B.To provide an investigation result of sleeping.
C.To stress the function of sleeping at night.
D.To arouse the awareness of enough sleeping.

7.There are many American expressions about insects.
Bees are known as very hard workers.So you might say you were as busy as a bee if you spent your weekend cleaning your house.In fact,you might say your house was a beehive of activity if your whole family was helping you clean.You also might say you made a beeline for something if you went there right away.When we go to see a movie,my friend always makes a beeline for the place where they sell popcorn.If something was the best of its kind,you might say it was the bee's knees.Now,we admit that we do not know how this expression developed.In fact,we do not even know if bees have knees!If your friend cannot stop talking about something because she thinks it is important,you might say she has a bee in her bonnet.If someone asks you a personal question,and you would like not to tell him or her,you might say,"That is none of your beeswax."
Butterflies are beautiful insects,but you would not want to have butterflies in your stomach.That means to be nervous about having to do something,like speaking in front of a crowd.You would also not want to have ants in your pants.That is,to be restless and unable to sit still.
If a friend keeps asking you to do something you do not want to do,you might ask him to leave you alone or"stop bugging me".A friend also might tell you again and again to do something.If so,you might say he put a bug in your ear.If you were reading a book in your warm bed on a cold winter's day,you might say you were snug as a bug in a rug.And,if you wish someone good night,you might say,"sleep tight-don't let the bed bugs bite."
24.When you describe a wonderful bike of your friend,you can sayB.
A.it makes a beeline          
B.it is the bee's knees
C.it is a beehive of activity

A.speak highly of a beautiful person
B.describe a person without confidence
C.stand for bad effects on a person
D.comfort a person in a bad mood
27.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A

B.Bug is a kind of good insects for man.
C.Bugs live mainly in human's ears.

16.Don't you just love ice skating every winter?I am sure that since winter is approaching,your skates are set to come out,just waiting to be used.Impress your friends with your new trick on how to ice-skate backwards with the help of these tips.
Stand straight
The first thing that you need to do is,stand straight.(36)G,if you feel that you are falling backwards.Don't worry; this happens to all.
Confidence is what you need
The most important step while learning how to skate backwards,is having enough confidence in yourself and in what you are doing.How can you achieve this?By practice.One of the important ice skating tips and techniques is that if you feel that you are losing your balance,then scissor(做剪式运动)your skates.(37)C.
Maintain speed
Try sculling(滑)with one skate while rolling in a straight line with the other.(38)A.Now bring the skate which you are using to scull,and then again,repeat the same process.Make sure that you put most of your weight on the skate which is moving straight and not the one with which you are sculling.
Now,try the same thing using the other foot.
(39)D.
Once you are confident that you can scull with either foot,the next thing that you have to do is increase your speed.Try some of your own tricks now.Scull with either foot or with both at the same time.
Scull and be aware
While you keep one foot straight,keep sculling with the other.You can do that with both feet at the same time.(40)F,but don't get so involved that you don't see where you are going.If you are not watching your back,you might just bang against something or someone.

A.That is,keep pushing yourself backwards with an outwards stroke(滑动)
B.While going backwards,just get used to the feeling of moving backwards
C.Keep practicing this till you are confident about it
D.Increase your speed now
E.One must be brave enough to learn to ice-skate backwards
F.Concentrate on what you are doing
G.Just put your chin up and slightly bend your knees.

17.We've all seen them:perfectly toned famous people on late-night television telling us that we too can develop rock-hard abdominal muscles(腹肌).It's easy!Just pay﹩149.99 for the Torso Track or﹩149.75 for the Ad-Doer and watch those unwanted inches leave your waist.Americans spend tens of million of dollars on various products to firm up their fat around the waist.
And did they work?Not necessarily.Independent studies have concluded that most of these products-no matter who approved them or how expensive they are-shape your midsection no better than old-fashioned stomach crunches(仰卧起坐).Some can even cause injury-like the﹩518.99 Body Shaper-Q8SP,which left electrical burns on some researchers at the University of Wisconsin,La Crosse.Others,like the popular Ab-Doer,trpically burn less energy than a gentle walk,according to a study to be published in September by the American Council on Exercise.
The fact is that many Americans don't have the biological makeup to develop an obvious abdominal muscles.They are either unable to get the necessary muscle mass or they can't lose enough fat to make a difference.Even if the underlying muscles are well developed,and it takes to hide it is one-sixteenth of tan inch of fat.That's enough to dismiss most healthy women as well as plenty of guys who do crunches every day.
So what works best?In its new study,the exercise experts researched on the results of the popular Ab-Doer.A lengthy TV advertisement promises that just 10minutes a day performing such movements as"Body Boogies"and"Good Mornings"will"help form those muscles the fun and easy way without diets."Steven Loy,professor at California State University,Northridge,tested the promise by measuring the electrical activity produced by the abdominal muscles during three Ab-Doer movements.He and his colleagues then compared the results with those produced during traditional exercises.They determined that the muscles were no more active,and in some cases less so,when exercisers were using the Ab-Doer.
Taking a broader approach,researchers at San Diego State University compared 13abdominal exercises for their ability to develop the central abdominal muscles.They concluded,in a report published in May,that the most effective exercises kept turning the body and worked the muscles the entire time.Among the winners:the bicycle movements-so called because it looks as if you are riding a bike while lying flat on the floor-and exercises performed on the"Captain's Chair",a product typically found in gyms that helps hold the body in the air while you raise your legs up toward your chest.Researchers suggested that a varied routine of the different exercises could deliver the best results.

63.Which of the following is the most effective in building abdominal muscles?C
A.Torso Track.
B.Ab-Doer.
C.Captain's Chair.
D.Body Shaper-Q8SP.
64.According to the author,it's difficult for many Americans to get visible firm abdominal muscles mainly becauseD.
A.they do not put in enough efforts
B.injuries interrupt their exercise frequently
C.they change their exercise routine regularly
D.how big their muscles will be is determined by birth
65.The author convinces the readers byC.
A.describing successful eases
B.offering professional connects
C.presenting findings of researches
D.comparing advertisements of products
66.What's the main purpose of this passage?B
A.To research and develop in order to create the perfect stomach and exercise machine.
B.To promote proven exercise techniques and to advise against false advertisements.
C.To indicate that diet and exercises are necessary factors for a fit midsection.
D.To sponsor rich healthy lifestyle based on advanced product research.
