For the last couple of weeks, I had been stuck in front of my computer working on a project that was very important to me. My every waking hour was consumed（消耗） by the project and although I imagined that I would feel happy after completing parts of the project, I was confused to find that instead, I was feeling rather depressed. I tried a range of methods to help cheer myself up. I had a relaxing bath, cooked a delicious meal to enjoy with my family and even watched a lighthearted（轻松地） movie, but to no avail. It was only when I turned to meditation(沉思)for a solution that the answer came to me: turn to nature!
The very next day, I grabbed my camera and a bottle of water and set off to spend a few hours walking in a nature reserve, even though it was pouring with rain. Within a couple of minutes I felt alive again. To be honest, I felt like a young school girl again and had to stop myself from hopping（单脚跳） along the path singing, "I'm singing in the rain", a song I used to sing when I was a child. I think as adults we often try too hard to control our inner children and as a result we restrain(限制) our own spirits, which only leads to depression and stress.
Interestingly, it has been shown that people who spend 40 minutes walking in a nature reserve have a drop in their blood pressure levels, but this does not happen when they spend a similar amount of time walking in a busy city centre.
If you feel a little low in spirit and know that you have spent too much time indoors, relax completely, remove your shoes and let your inner child come out and play.

A．couldn't consume her waking hour.

B．had not seen a film for a long time.

小题3:The underlined part "to no avail" in Paragraph 1 probably means
" __________.".

A．unsuccessful

B．unrelated（不相关的）

C．uninteresting

D．unexpected

小题4:In the author's opinion, __________.

A．a bath can make people relaxed.

B．depression is usually caused by hard work.

C．walking in a busy city centre harms people's health.

D．adults should express their inner feelings freely.

小题5:The last paragraph mainly serves as a(n) __________.

A．explanation

B．suggestion

C．introduction

D．reminder

小题1:D
小题2:D
小题3:A
小题4:D

Expressions about water are almost as common as water itself.
The expression to be in hot water is a very old expression. Hot water was used five hundred years ago to mean being in trouble. One story says it got that meaning from the custom of throwing extremely hot water down on enemies attacking a castle.
That no longer happens. But we still get in hot water. When we are in hot water, we are in trouble. It can be any kind of trouble—serious or not so serious. A person who breaks a law can be in hot water with the police. A young boy can be in hot water with his mother, if he walks in the house with dirty shoes.
Beingin deep water is almost the same as being in hot water. When you are in deep water, you are in a difficult position.
To keep your head above water is a colorful expression that means staying out of debt. A company seeks to keep its head above water during economic hard times. A man who loses his job tries to keep his head above water until he finds a new job.
Water over the dam is another expression about a past event. It is something that is finished. It cannot be changed. The expression comes from the idea that water that has flowed over a dam cannot be brought back again.
Another common expression to hold water, is about the strength or weakness of an idea or opinion that you may be arguing about. It probably comes from a way of testing the condition of a container.; If it can hold water, it is strong and has no holes in it. If your argument can hold water, it is strong and does not have any holes.
Throwing cold water also is an expression that deals with ideas or suggestions. It means to not like an idea. For example, you want to buy a new car because the old one has some problems. But your wife throws cold water on the idea, because she says a new car costs too much.
小题1:If Robert says he is in deep water, we may guess_________.

A．he is swimming under the water

B．he is tired of changing shoes

C．he nearly breaks a law

D．he faces a difficult choice

小题2:What can you say to your friend Jane, who is troubled by a mistake she has made?

A．Keep your head above water.

B．Throw cold water.

C．It is water over the dam.

D．It can hold water.

小题3:If your argument doesn’t hold water, then it is _________.

A．weak

B．convincing

C．logical

D．disappointing

小题4:The passage explains the origins of the following expressions EXCEPT_________.

A．to be in hot water

B．to keep your head above water

C．water over the dam

D．to hold water

More American people take their troubles with them on holiday, according to a new survey. Although 40 percent said that the main reason for going away is to escape pressure from work, almost all said they worry more than they do at home. Only four in every 100 said that they are happy and free of care.
The most common worry is burglary(入室盗窃), with four out of 10 worrying about their homes being broken into while they’re abroad. More than a quarter fear they will feel crazy with some other noisy and rough holiday-makers and 22 percent worry they may be attacked or their possessions will be missing. One in five think the car may break down, and the same number worry about the chances of bad weather.
The survey also showed that the stay-at-home Americans are no more. Three out of every five want to have a holiday abroad, a great increase from the figures only three years ago. The hotel holiday is still a winner, with about one third of all Americans preferring to go on a self-catering(自助) holiday.

Winter is dangerous because it’s so difficult to know what is going to happen and accidents take place so easily. Fog can be waiting to meet you over the top of a hill. Ice might be hiding under the melting (融化) snow, waiting ahead to send you off the road. The car coming to you may suddenly slip（滑） across the road.
Rule No.1 for driving on icy roads is to drive smoothly (平稳地). Sudden movements can make a car very difficult to control. So every time you either start or stop your car, increase or reduce your speed, you must be as gentle and slow as possible. Suppose you are driving with a full cup of hot coffee on the seat next to you. Drive so that you wouldn’t spill (溅) it.
Rule No.2 is to pay attention to what might happen. The more ice there is, the further down the road you have to look. Test how long it takes to gently stop your car. Remember that you may be driving more quickly than you think. Generally, allow twice of your usual stopping distance when the road is wet, three times this distance on snow than usual, and even more on ice. Try to stay in control of your car at all time and you will not get into trouble.
小题1:The writer tries to _____ in this passage.

A．show his dislikes about bad winter weather

B．give information about winter weather

C．ask people not to drive in winter

D．advise people about safe driving in winter

小题2:According to the passage, the writer thinks that _______.

A．people should not drive in the snow

B．drivers should think more about problems in winter driving

C．people drive too fast in winter

D．winter drivers should stop their cars less

小题3:In the passage the writer talks about a cup of coffee ______.

A．to show how important smooth movements are

B．to ask the drivers to bring some soft drinks with them

C．to tell the drivers to be more relaxed

D．to show how it can be spilled

小题4:Which of the following is NOT true?

A．Traffic accidents take place easily in winter.

B．Fog and melting snow often cause car accidents.

C．The stopping distance on ice is as long as the usual one.

D．In winter you should drive your car with great care.

Miss Popular
I was awkward in middle school: bony and athletic, with a high grade in science and a low one in self-esteem. Though I had a few friends, I wasn’t popular. I was picked last in football and I sometimes ate lunch by myself.
I remember the day Brittany came to our school. Her teeth were crooked(歪斜的), and she was a little overweight. Not that this mattered though, because she walked around like she was better than all of us. She was outspoken and incredibly frightening, making people lose confidence.
Around Brittany, I tried my best to go unnoticed. Standing out or stealing her spotlight could only result in one thing: conflict. Brittany was always the first girl picked for teams; I was lucky if I was picked at all. I was thrown the ball while she stood with the quarterback, chatting about the last party she’d gone to. I had never been to a party before or kissed a boy.
One day, a classmate asked me to the school dance. I was flattered. Then Brittany told me during science class that she had persuaded him to invite me. She asked in front of everyone, “Why would anyone even want you?” I went home and cried.
Although she was seemingly perfect in everyone’s eyes, I wanted to be everything that she wasn’t and yet a million times more perfect. Brittany was so frightening and violent, but I wanted to be calm and not at all aggressive.
I found Brittany’s online profile a few weeks ago. She still had the same chubby(圆胖脸) face and mocking（嘲笑的）simile, and had posted half-naked pictures of herself. But as I read on, I realized that Brittany had died in a drunken driving accident a year ago. She had been 16 and pregnant at the time. Suddenly my view of Brittany changed from a bad influence into a struggling little girl whose life was taken before she could understand right from wrong. My experience with Brittany taught me that though we are all innocent in our youth, the choices we make will have great effects on us forever. I will always remember Brittany as that loud, overconfident girl. As part of that shy insecure person I used to be will always keep me modest.
小题1:From the first three passages we can conclude that .

A．the author was trying to avoid conflict with Brittany

B．the author secretly envied Brittany for being popular

C．Brittany’s appearance made her popular with boys

D．Brittany was puzzled at how she could be popular

小题2:Which of the following is TRUE about Brittany?

A．She didn’t mean to hurt the author.

B．She took delight in hurting others.

C．Her confidence came from her popularity.

D．Her overweight made her more outspoken.

小题3:According to the passage we can learn that the author .

A．was afraid of Brittany and followed her lead

B．saw the influence that low self-esteem can have

C．was determined to be better than Brittany

D．knew she was quietly different from Brittany

小题4:The last passage is meant to .

A．tell us the reason for Brittany’s death

B．present the changed attitude to Brittany

C．show the influences of the youth

D．stress the importance of behaviors

Most students hate their endless homework. The students from Class 2, Senior 2 of the High School Affiliated to Peking University certainly did before they published their own collection of English novels at home.
Their small book contains stories about a holy (神圣的) war, the happy life of a self-taught artist and the story of a laid-off worker who devoted his last breath to playing his beloved accordion (手风琴). The book becomes an instant hit on campus. About 3,000 copies have been sold and the class is already working on the second volume.
"We’re up to our ears in homework. Exercises and exams make us out of breath. But to do something creative and full of imagination is such a great achievement," said Yu Xiaoxiao, 16.
"I took the writing as an ordinary homework at the beginning, but after I finished the first part of my story, I could not help but let it flow," said Wang An, who wrote "Accordion".
Inspired by "Lord of the Rings", Jiang Lu wrote his story about magic wars between angels from the light and the dark side. "The main message of the story was to look at the balance of the world. Both dark and light angels fight with love as their weapons. I want to tell people that selfish love might bring hate," Jiang said.
"I was shocked by their work and felt so proud to be the editor of my students’ book," said Nathaniel Timmermann, the oral English teacher at the school. Liu Xiuqin, an English teacher, started the project by asking students to write whatever was in their mind every week. "They have performed beyond expectation," Liu said. "They wrote interesting stories and their English has improved after they started to express their real minds."
"We never imagined that our homework would be so popular and profitable (盈利的). We sell the novels at five yuan, but many teachers pay more to encourage us," said Yuan Mengyao.
小题1: After Wang An finished the first part of his story, he _________.

A．couldn’t go on	B．had to put it aside
C．just wanted to express it freely	D．lost it

C．Students’ new book

D．A popular book
