Cyclist Jia Yanmei and a fellow enthusiast covered more than 2,200 kilometers from Beijing to their individual hometowns in Sichuan to celebrate the Lunar New Year with their families, Xu Lin reports.
While others rushed home on high-speed trains or airplanes for the annual Spring Festival, Jia Yanmei spent 16-plus days cycling more than 2,200 kilometers from Beijing to her hometown, Nanchong, Sichuan Province.
Thanks to social media, cycling fans from different cities were able to follow her progress, and some even offered food and accommodation if she happened to be nearby.
“It’s not that I failed to buy my train ticket home. I just want to bring the spirit of cycling to everyone — to do whatever you want to do bravely. As long as you are on the road, you will enjoy yourself, ” says Jia, 26, an English teacher at an educational institution in Beijing.
She started her adventure at 8:30 am on Jan 12, with Wang  Yujiang, 47, who works in architecture in Beijing. A cycling friend introduced them because Wang also wanted to cycle to his hometown, Guangyuan, Sichuan Province.

“I must say that I admire her. She’s not like others. No matter how tired she is, she can soon recover after meals,” says Wang, who is cycling back from his hometown to Beijing now.
“ I’ve improved myself a lot after the cycling. No matter what difficulties I will meet with in the future, I will
have confidence to face them, ” Jia says.
When she posted her plan   online on Christmas Eve, many cycling fans supported her, lent her equipment and gave her gifts. She updated her social networks, such as Sina Weibo and WeChat, with news of her cycling adventures, as well as a cycling-related applications that recorded her route.

The other day I heard a few local musicians talking:
"I hate all the pianos in this town and I hate that rubbish they play on the radio .They cannot every understand rhythm(韵律)"
"Nobody wants to pay musicians anything. I'm sick of all the people who want you to play without paying you."
One younger musician said, "There are several clubs who want me to play for a few nights a  month and I'm trying to find other places to play .I'm also planning to join in several summer festivals this year."
I  really liked what the younger musician said so I made friends with him.
Attitudes are important. Whether they're positive or negative(消极) they're all rubbing      off on you,If you're around people who are always complaining or blaming others, it is possible that you will start doing the same as well. If you spend lots of time with people who don't support your dreams, it is time to take a look at the people you call " friends".
There is an easy exercise you can try. Make a list of the people who you often stay with, and simply stop , spending time with the negative ones on your list. Set a new standard for yourself and don't become friends with people who fall below that standard.
Of course, this exercise is entirely different from making friends only for the good of oneself. We really should try to help and spend time with those who are working towards a goal or dream.
小题1:The musicians' conversation at the beginning is there to show that
A.musicians' living conditions are not good
B.people in that town have poor taste in music
C.young people are more likely to succeed
D.different musicians have different attitudes
小题2:The underlined part in Para. 6 means________.
A.they'll have an influence on youB.they'll help you realize your dreams

A.He is more active than the others.
B.He can earn more than the others.

小题4:By doing the exercise mentioned in Para. 7, you can________.
A.improve your ability to make friends
B.make the right kind of friends for sure
C.develop a better relationship with your friends
D.make some new friends with similar interests
小题5:We can get the following information from the passage EXCEPT________.

The Swiss army knife is a popular device that is recognized all over the world. In Switzerland, there is a saying that every good Swiss citizen has one in his or her pocket. But the knife had poor beginnings.
In the late nineteenth century, the Swiss army issued(发给) its soldiers a gun that required a special screwdriver(螺丝刀) to take it apart and clean it. At the same time, canned food was becoming common in the army. Swiss generals decided to issue each soldier a standard knife to serve both as a screwdriver and a can opener.
It was a lifesaver for Swiss knife makers, who were struggling to compete with cheaper German imports. In 1884, Carl Elsener, head of the Swiss knife manufacturer(maker) Victorinox, seized that opportunity with both hands, and designed a soldier's knife that the army loved. It was a simple knife with one big blade(刀片), a can opener, and a screwdriver.
A few years after the soldier's knife was issued, the "Schweizer Offizier Messer," or Swiss Officer's Knife, came on the market. Interestingly, the Officer's Knife was never given to those serving in the army. The Swiss army purchasers considered the new model with a corkscrew(瓶塞钻) for opening wine not "essential for survival," so officers had to buy this new model by themselves. But its special multi-functional design later launched(发行) the knife as a global brand. After the Second World War, a great number of American soldiers were stationed in Europe. And as they could buy the Swiss army knife at shops on army bases, they bought huge quantities of them. However, it seems that "Schweizer Offizier Messer" was too difficult for them to say, so they just called it the Swiss army knife, and that is the name it is now known by all over the world.
小题1:What is the main purpose of the passage­?
A.To explain the origin of the Swiss army knife.
B.To introduce the functions of the Swiss army knife.
C.To emphasize the importance of the Swiss army knife.
D.To tell a story about the designer of the Swiss army knife.
小题2:What does "It" in the third paragraph refer to­?
A.The Swiss army needed a knife for every soldier.
B.Every good Swiss citizen had a knife in his pocket.
C.Swiss knives were competing with imported knives.
D.Canned food was becoming popular in the Swiss army.
小题3:Why didn't the Swiss army purchase the Swiss Officer's Knife­?
A.The design of the knife was too simple.
B.The knife was sold out to American soldiers.
C.The army had no budget to make the purchase.
D.The new design was not considered necessary for officers to own.
小题4:Who gave the name "the Swiss army knife" to the knife discussed in the passage­?
A.Carl Elsener.B.Swiss generals.
C.American soldiers.D.German businessmen.

There are many fun, free activities that you can do as a family. All that is required is a bit of imagination and some time. And the best part is that these are the kind of fun, family memories a child will remember for a lifetime.
Family Game Night
Kids often get games for Christmas or birthdays, and would love to have a chance to play with their family. Or, make up some games of their own.

Family Art Time
Pick some time for the family to sit down and come up with their own art. It doesn’t need to be just a drawing-take some old magazines, let the kids cut out pictures and paste them into their own shape. Or let them use leaves, branches and whatever else they can find to make something from their imagination.
Family Picnic
Taking the family for a picnic is a great way for some fun that doesn’t cost any money. If the weather is nice, take them to a park or playground and let them have a day of playing.
Family Field Trip
A family field trip doesn’t have to cost a cent. Ask a nearby farm if you can bring your kids out for a tour and to see some of the animals. Or take them to a park to find certain items from nature. Ask a local business if you could bring the family for a tour to see how things work-you might be surprised at the number of people who would be excited to share what they do with others, and it could be an interesting lesson for kids.

They say that the real marathon begins at 35 kilometers — the rest is just a warm up. And sure enough, in 2009, at around the 36 kilometer point of the Beijing Marathon I experienced what runners call “hitting the wall”. I had been doing well until that point, but suddenly I felt a sharp pain in my leg. My pace slowed down dramatically and every brain cell in my head seemed to be screaming “stop!!!”
The last 5 kilometers were not fun; in fact, they were really hard work. Keeping motivated to run those last few kilometers was one of the hardest things I had ever done. But that is what makes running a marathon such a rewarding experience — if it were easy everyone would do it.
I have to admit it is sometimes not even easy to find the motivation to get out of bed, pull on your running shoes and head out into the morning to go for another run. These last two weeks of training for the Muztagata climb have been a little tough. I have been following my training plan for about three months but now I find that my original enthusiasm (热情) has all been used up. Day after day of going to the gym is beginning to wear me down and there still seems so much longer to keep this up. I have begun to doubt that I am actually making any progress or getting any fitter and even thought that I might be going backwards!
These are all very common experiences for people who are working towards challenging, longer term goals and I have learned to recognize these “highs” and “lows” in my energy and enthusiasm. Over the years I have learned a number of tricks that help me to deal with the days when my early motivation seems to have abandoned me for good.
小题1:Many runners say that the real marathon begins at 35 kilometers because it is at this point that __________.
A.runners begin to enjoy running the marathon race
B.runners are worn out as if they are breaking down
C.the rest part is just the preparation for the race
D.the race is a rewarding experience for runners
小题2:When people are working extremely hard towards challenging, _________.
A.they can keep themselves motivated all the time
B.they will never hesitate to continue carrying out their plan
C.they sometimes feel as if they stop making progress
D.they will fail to keep their spirits up
小题3:What is the author going to talk about in the following passage?
A.How to get trained.
B.Tips for becoming a marathon runner.
C.How to meet challenges.
D.Tips for keeping motivation high.

Tiredness, coughing, a runny nose and a sore throat—among all sicknesses there is probably none more common than the flu, which we all get now and then.

However, bird flu is a completely different story.
Ten years ago, the H5N1 bird flu swept across 15 countries, including China, with sufferers reporting chest pain, difficulty breathing, fever and severe coughing. More than 600 people were infected, and about 60 percent died. Now another type of bird flu hit Shanghai and three neighboring provinces, and this time the virus is called H7N9. By the afternoon of April 11, the new virus had taken nine lives out of 35 infected, according to Xinhua News Agency.
The“H”and“N”in the virus’ name refers to two kinds of proteins on the surface of the virus. Any change of the numbers of the two proteins indicates a new mutation(变异). Most of the mutations only affect birds, such as chickens and pigeons, and don’t normally spread to humans. But once they do, the results can be disastrous.
“Any time an animal influenza virus crosses to humans, it is a cause for concern, ”Malik Peiris, virologist(病毒学家)at the University of Hong Kong, told Nature magazine. Take the SARS epidemic(传染病)10 years ago as an example. The virus behind the disease is thought to have jumped to humans from animals. The virus was a complete“stranger”to human bodies, which hadn’t developed an immunity against it.
But there is something more about the new H7N9 bird flu. Unlike the H5N1 bird flu, which causes severe sickness in birds, the H7N9 has been evolving under the radar(悄悄地)since it travels between birds without causing noticeable illness. That makes it difficult to keep track of the disease.
The good news is that there’s so far no sign that the virus is spreading from person to person. But since there is no vaccine for the disease yet, the World Health Organization recommends that you wash your hands after meeting with sick people and before and after you eat or prepare food, and they also suggest avoiding contact with birds or their eggs.
小题1:Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?
A.The H5N1 bird flu turned out to have something to do with the SARS epidemic.
B.More than 600 people across the world died from the H5N1 bird flu ten years ago.
C.Most of the mutations of the proteins in the bird flu virus are harmful to both birds and humans.
D.The name, H7N9 bird flu, shows that there have been new mutations of the proteins in the virus.
小题2:With the example of the SARS epidemic in Paragraph 5, the author intends to   .
A.introduce where the SARS virus came from
B.inform us of the harmful effects of the SARS epidemic ten years ago
C.show the horrible effects an animal influenza virus can have once it spreads to humans
D.compare the differences between the SARS epidemic and the H7N9 bird flu
小题3:What makes the H7N9 bird flu more frightening than the H5N1 bird flu according to the text?
A.It can cause severe sickness in birds.
B.It can spread from person to person.
C.It affects a greater number of birds.
D.It doesn’t sicken birds and thus can spread unnoticed.
小题4:What are people advised to do to protect themselves against the H7N9 bird flu?
a. To get vaccinated for the disease.
b. To keep away from birds and their eggs.
c. To stop eating chickens and ducks.
d. To avoid meeting with sick people.
e. To wash hands thoroughly and regularly.
A.a, b   B.c, d
