                                 ★★★★★

              The playground game of hg (捉人游戏) was temporarily banned at a Washington elementary school,but the ban was met by parent protests at a time when school recess (休息) is considered by many educators as one of the keys to better test scores.

              Parents,at Lakeridge Elementary School protested when they learned that the school's new “hands off’policy designed to reduce injuries during recess — also forbade tag. 

             “While at play,especially during recess and unstructured time,students are expected to keep their hands to themselves. The reason behind this is to^ ensure the physical and emotional safety of all students,Mary Grady of the Mercer Island School District said.

              Many Mercer Island parents protested that an exciting recess game of chase and touch was not only safe,but also healthy. ”Our kids need some unstructured playtime,” a concerned mother Kdsey Joyce said. “I totally survived tag."

              After further pushback,the school district finally gave up the ban and announced tag was back. Many schools tried to improve standardized test scores  by cutting recess time several years ago,but elementary principals(校长) reafized that playtime had actually helped students’ test performance. More than 80 percent of principals said recess improved academic achievement,according to a survey.

             Rather than banning tag,a non-profit organization called Playworks suggests using the game to teach conflict resolution,or even just for fun. u\ think a game like tag is wonderful/' Playworks Director Jonathan Blasher said. “It's important for kids to have that free-range play.^ Playworks was started in 1996 to prevent fights at recess that led to the ban on tag at Lakeridge Elementary School. Rather than forbid eertain;games,the group places coaches in schools during recess to suggest new ones. The idea was to both free teachers from breaking up fights and help children return to class

    9. Why was tag banned at the elementary school?

       A. It led to kids’ unhealthy habits.

       B. It was considered dangerous.

       C. It met with parent protests.

       D. It made the school noisy.

    10. The underlined word “pushback” in Paragraph 5 probably means .

       A. resistance   B. discussion

       C. research     D. development

    11. What did most elementary principals agree with?

       A. Recess time should be shortened.

       B. Playtime helps improve test scores.

       C. Standardized tests are difficult for students.

       D. Students,academic achievement has improved.

                                 C

                Several years ago,my wife and I spent a few days in Berlin,staying at the Park Inn in Alexanderplatz,where we got an unusual surprise.

                We arrived in the afternoon,tired from our early flight,and were checked in by a rather formal young man. We decided to have a lie down for ten minutes before exploring the city. As I lay down with my eyes half shut,I saw a shadow pass the window.,aProbably a seagull

                I thought. Then the same thing happened again,but this time there was a cry coming through the balcony doors.

    I got up,opened the sliding doors and went out onto the balcony to investigate — just in time to see a human body screaming past me towards the square below before safely (变慢) just a few meters from the ground. I found out it's a sport called base jumping (高处跳伞).

                Once we knew what was happening,we got used to. it. It went on for a short time each day,and it was only the people that laughed loudly as they went down that disturbed me. (I tried to persuade my wife to have a go,but she said no!)

               On our last day,we checked out and the same rnsenW (寡言少语的) young man served us. “I hope that you enjoyed your stay,” he said.

               “Actually,” I replied, “it would have been nice to have been warned when we checked in about the base jumpers falling past our balcony."

                He paused and considered for a moment,ay/zckr (闪 现) of a smile appearing on one side of his mouth. “Yeah,” he said. “Perhaps we should warn people in the fliture." I knew that he wouldn,t. It was their little joke. Berliners,believe it or not,have a famous sense of humor.

    9. What did the author plan to do first with his wife after they were checked in?

       A. Visit the city.    B. Take a hot bath.

       C. Have a short rest. D. Take some photos.

    10. What did the author see when he stepped onto the balcony?

       A. His wife.      B. A seagull.

       C. A base jumper. D. The formal young man.

    11. What the author said in Paragraph 6 shows that .

       A. he was quite satisfied with the service

       B. he wanted to be a base jumper as well

       C. he thought the base jumpers were brave enough

       D. he should have been told about base jumping before

    12. What did the author mean by the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?

       A. Berliners were friendly.

       B. Berliners were reserved.

       C. He didn't trust the young man.

       D. He enjoyed the young man's humor.

              Remember the good old days before smartphones? No,we don't mean the days without mobile phones. We’ re talking the old school days. We’ re talking the era of flip phones (翻盖手机) .One teenager named Janey Litvin is looking to bring those days back.

              It started when Litvin dropped her iPhone and heard “crrmrrrack ,” the sound every iPhone owner knows and fears. At first,Litvin was frightened W see her iPhone break into pieces on the floor,but she eventually considered it a good thing.

              “Although I wouldn’t  have admitted it,I was totally addicted to my iPhone,w Litvin wrote in a post,describing it as her full-time job. If she didn't check it at all moments of the day,something,whether it be a Facebook notification (通知) or a message from a friend,would fall through the cracks.“A broken iPhone changed everything. Suddenly,there was no pressure to respond or stay updated with vveveryone's latest move,and it was nice,” she said.

              When others broke their phones and enjoyed a day Or two of freedom from cyberspace,they would get their phones fixed,and then jump right back into the world of network. But Litvin chose not to replace her smartphone. The teen instead ordered a purple Motorola flip phone that “gets the job done." It's a i*ar cry from a wonderful smartphone,but it's all Litvin wanted.

              At first,Litvin experienced uneasiness,even missing out on important conversations and plans. Eventually,she settled into the smartphone-less life,which turned out to be a good thing for her friendships. As Litvin has learned at a summer camp where mobile phones are banned,being disconnected can help “develop incredibly strong friendships."

                          ★★★★☆

       Most buildings are built to stand up straight,but these look as if they might fall over!

    The church tower of Suurhusen 

          Built in 1450,the 27-metre-high church tower lies in Suurhusen,Germany. It was built in wet land on foundations of oak tree (树千) .When the land was drained(排水) later,the wood broke down,causing one side of the tower to be a little lower than the other. In 1975,the tower became a real hazard and people were not allowed to enter until the foundations were made strong again. The /eaw (倾斜) of the tower is now about five degrees.

    The Leaning Tower of Pisa

         The work of building the tower began in 1173,and was finally completed in 1372. In fact,it began to lean after just a couple of floors were built. And this condition continued in the centuries after its completion. The tower was finally closed to the public in 1990 after people fajled to stabilize(使稳固) its foundations. In 2001,it was reopened after engineers repioved soil from underneath its raised side. Now it leans just an angle of 3. 97 degrees.

    Capital Gate of Abu Dhabi

       Completed in 2011,the Capital Gate tower in Abu Dhabi was designed to lean eighteen degrees. The building stands next to the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre and contains,among other things,a fine hotel with wonderful views of the harbour. Also known as the leaning tower of Abu Dhabi,the tower is one of the tallest buildings in the city.

    Big Ben of London

     T   he building leans 0. 26 degrees to the northwest. This was mainly caused by the engineering projects(项目) that have been carried out in the ground below it since the late 1800s. The tower,which has been continuously open since it was completed in 1858,has nowhere near the lean of the Tower of Pisa and is still completely safe to enter.

    32. The underlined word “hazard” in Paragraph 2

    probably me?ns “”.

       A. danger        B. church

        C. castle        D. treasure

       A. It didnn't lean until ten years after its completion.

       B. It took almost two hundred years to complete.

        C. It was built on foundations of oak tree trunks.

       D. It has been open since it was completed.

    34. Which of the following towers leans the most according to the text?

       A. The church tower of Suurhusen.

       B. The Leaning Tower of Pisa,
