With computers becoming more and more popular in China, Chinese people are increasingly relying on computer keyboards to input Chinese characters (汉字）. But if they use the computer too much, they may end up forgetting the exact strokes（笔画）of each Chinese character when writing on paper. Experts suggest people, especially students, write by hand more.
Do you write by hand more or type more? In Beijing, students start using a computer as early as primary school. And computer dependence is more wide-spread among university students. Almost all their writings are typed on a computer.
All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer.
It’s faster and easier to correct if using a computer. And that’s why computers are being used more and more often to modern education. But when people are taking stock in computers increasingly, problems appear.
“When I’m writing with a pen, I find I often can’t remember how to write a character, though I feel I’m familiar with it.”
“I’m not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper.”
Many students don’t feel this is something to worry about. Now that it’s more convenient and efficient to write on a computer, why bother to handwrite?
Many educators think differently. Shi Liwei, the headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital said “Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic(审美的) value. But those characters typed with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value. All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost. And handwriting contains the writer’s emotion. Through one’s handwriting, people can get to know one’s thinking and personality. Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them.”
To encourage students to handwrite more, many primary schools in Beijing have made writing classes compulsory(必修的)and in universities, some professors are asking students to turn in their homework and essays written by hand.
1.Which of the following can BEST serve as the title of the passage?
A. To Type or To Hand Write
B. The Importance of Handwriting and Typing
C. Writing By Computer Will Replace Writing By Hand
D. Practical and Aesthetic Value of Chinese Characters
2.The students interviewed prefer to write using a computer mainly because .
A. they can correct the mistakes they make quickly and conveniently
B. they are usually asked to e-mail their homework and essays
C. they find it not easy to remember how to write a character
D. computers have become a trend and fashion in China
3.The underlined expression “taking stock in” in the fourth paragraph probably means .
A. getting bored with B. getting dependent on
C. becoming upset about D. looking forward to
4.We can draw the conclusion from the passage that .
A. more and more students will give up writing on a computer
B. writing by hand will give way to typing by computer one day
C. more and more students will pay attention to handwriting
D. the typed article better expresses one’s emotion and quality

Too much eating. Too many unhealthy foods. Too many ads for food. Too few activities. Different reasons are given for America’s weight problem---a problem increasingly shared by other countries. Almost one-fifth of American children and teenagers are overweight.
Schools have been asked to increase physical education, an important tool for public health. However, a recent study has shown an increase in the number of injuries in P.E. classes.
Researchers say one possible reason for this is a decrease in the number of school nurses. Schools without a nurse on duty may be more likely to send an injured child to a hospital.
Another possible reason for more injuries is a change in the traditional idea of physical education. This “New P.E.” expands the kinds of sports that are taught. But activities that some schools offer now, like rock climbing and skateboarding, can also increase the risks, says Cheryl Richardson, who is with the National Association for Sport and Physical Education(NASPE).
She also says not all states require P.E. teachers to be specially trained. Untrained teachers could be less likely to recognize unsafe conditions.
Cheryl Richardson points to one of the study’s findings –that injuries are often the result of contact with a person or a structure. This tells her that the teachers were not giving each student enough space to move around safely.
Six activities produced seventy percent of all injuries: running, basketball, football, volleyball, rugby and gymnastics.
The researchers say larger class sizes are another possible reason for the increase in injuries. Larger classes can mean less supervision(监督). The National Association for Sport and Physical Education says twenty to thirty students in a P.E. class should be the limit.
1.What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. What leads to the weight problem in America.
B. Whether students should have more P.E. classes.
C. Why there have been more injuries in P.E. classes.
D. What kinds of activities are safe for school students.
2.We can know from the third paragraph that__________.
A. nurses are paid more in hospitals than in schools in America.
B. many nurses in American schools don’t have good skills.
C. fewer people choose to become a nurse in America.
D. American schools need more school nurses at present.
3.Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. P.E. classes become more dangerous for students now in America.
B. Fewer and fewer students are interested in P.E. classes in America.
C. The number of P.E. teachers in schools must be increased now.
D. P.E. classes follow the traditional ideas in physical education.
4.According to Cheryl Richardson,____________.
A. students should do more exercise when they are at school
B. teachers are partly responsible for injuries in P.E. classes
C. the equipment for P.E. classes must be improved in all schools.
D. P.E. teachers should give students more freedom in their classes

Dear Mr. Manager,
I’m writing to express my thank to you and your employee Miss Li Hong, who helped me found my handbag while I was shopping in your shop in March 24. That day I was greatly interesting and lost myself in enjoying a beautiful product. After I paid a pair of silk socks, I left my handbag on the counter. I have already walked out of the shop then Miss Li came up with my handbag. I thanked her and offered her a reward of 20 dollars and she refused to take even a cent. I deeply moved by her spirit. Miss Li’s good qualities are something I’ll always keep it in mind.

My challenge for you is this: to read a book for 15 minutes every single day for a month.
Let me explain a bit, by telling you where the challenge came from. I have many things in common with my dad, like music taste and sense of humor, but sadly reading isn’t one of them. I can happily spend a whole day with a book, but my dad can’t read a book for longer than about 5 minutes. He reads emails, websites and papers for work, but not books. He’s busy so I think sitting down to read for just 15 minutes a day is a good way to relax and to introduce him to reading.
My dad is by no means the only person who avoids books. I know lots of people would rather relax on their computers or in front of the TV. Everyone is different and has their own interests, but I think there’re lots of benefits to reading, which screen-based activities don’t have.
Firstly, it’s better for your eyes. Looking at screens can be very stressful for you eye muscles, and clearly you should avoid looking at screens for an hour before bed, to get a good night’s sleep.
One thing I personally love reading, is being transported to another world—I would often forget the time or things around me! Reading is a great way to switch off before you go to bed, because you think more about the world of the book, rather than the real world, so you can truly relax. I know you can be transported to a different world in a film or a TV show, but I think books do it better.
I also enjoy hearing what people are doing and finding out what they think. Reading gives me the chance to get to know hundreds of new people! It also teaches you to see things from other people’s point of view, and understand other people’s decisions or opinions. With a book, you can hear everything a character is thinking or feeling—you really can be inside someone else’s head!
So give it a go! Take 15 minutes when you’re waking up, going to bed, eating too much, or having a coffee. If you read a lot, why not try 15 minutes of an English book, or pass the challenge on to someone else? Good luck, and happy reading!

There are many places to go on safari in Africa, but riding a horse through the flooded waters of Botswana's Okavango Delta must rank as one of the world's most exciting wildlife journeys.
Several safari camps operate as the base for this adventure, providing unique rides twice a day to explore deep into the delta. The camps have excellent horses, professional guides and lots of support workers. They have a reputation for providing a great riding experience.
The morning ride, when the guides take you to beautiful, shallow lakes full of water lilies, tends to be more active. It is unlike any other riding experience. With rainbows forming in the splashing water around you and the sound of huge drops of water bouncing off your body and face. It is truly exciting. You are very likely to come across large wild animals, too. On horseback it is possible to get quite close to elephants, giraffes and many other animals. The sense of excitement and tension levels rise suddenly though, as does your heart rate, as you move closer to them.
In the evening, rides are usually at a more relaxed and unhurried pace. With golden light streaming across the grassy delta and the animals coming out to eat and drink. Sedate though they are, rides at this time of day are still very impressive. As the sun's rays pass through the dust kicked up by the horses, the romance of Africa comes to life.
Back at the camp you can kick off your boots and enjoy excellent food and wine. Looking back on your day, you will find it hard to deny that a horseback Safari is as close as you will ever come to answering the call of the wild.
1.What does the underlined word “They” (in Para 2) refer to?
A. Flooded waters B. Wildlife journey
C. Unique rides D. Safari camps
2.What does the author find most exciting about a horse safari?
A. Seeing and feeling the real African life.
B. Enjoying good food and wine at the camp.
C. Being part of the scene and getting close to animals.
D. Hunting large animals just as our ancestors did.
3.What does the underlined word “sedate”(in Para 4) probably mean?
A. Slow and peaceful B. Wild and romantic
C. Hurry and thirsty D. Active and excited
4.The author introduced the riding experience in the Okavango Delta mainly by ___.
A. following space order B. making classifications
C.following time order D. giving examples
