    C

    On one of her trips to New York several years ago, Eudora Welty decided to take a couple of New York friends out to dinner. They settled in at a comfortable East Slide cafe and within minutes, another customer was approaching their table.

    ＂Hey, aren’t you from Mississippi?＂ the elegant, white-haired writer remembered being asked by the stranger. ＂I’m from Mississippi too.＂

    Without a second thought, the woman joined the Welty party. When her dinner partner showed up, she also pulled up a chair.

    ＂They began telling me all the news of Mississippi,＂ Welty said. ＂I didn’t know what my New York friends were thinking.＂

    Taxis on a rainy New York night are rarer than sunshine. By the time the group got up to leave, it was pouring outside. Welty’s new friends immediately sent a waiter to find a cab. Heading back downtown toward her hotel, her big-city friends were amazed at the turn of events that had changed their Big Apple dinner into a Mississippi state reunion(团聚).

    ＂My friends said: ‘Now we believe your stories,’＂ Welty added. ＂And I said: ‘Now you know. These are the people that make me write them.’＂

    Sitting on a sofa in her room, Welty, a slim figure in a simple gray dress, looked pleased with this explanation.

    ＂I don’t make them up,＂ she said of the characters in her fiction these last 50 or so years. ＂I don’t have to.＂

    Beauticians, bartenders, piano players and people with purple hats, Welty’s people come from afternoons spent visiting with old friends, from walks through the streets of her native Jackson, Miss., from conversations overheard on a bus. It annoys Welty that, at 78, her left ear has now given out. Sometimes, sitting on a bus or a train, she hears only a fragment(片段) of a particularly interesting story.

    1.What happened when Welty was with her friends at the cafe?

    A. Two strangers joined her.

    B. Her childhood friends came in.

    C. A heavy rain ruined the dinner.

    D. Some people held a party there.

    2.The underlined word ＂them＂ in Paragraph 6 refers to Welty’s _______.

    A. readers B. parties C. friends D. stories

    3.What can we learn about the characters in Welty’s fiction?

    A. They live in big cities. B. They are mostly women.

    C. They come from real life. D. They are pleasure seekers.

    As confusion disappeared, we found freedom, time, and energy to do more of what we love. We started hiking more and added weekend and weeklong camping trips. In doing so，we realized more and more benefits of being outdoors.

    The physical health benefits from being outside may be pretty obvious at first, but there are more than I realized. Studies have shown that besides the vitamin D intake, being outside can even reduce recovery and healing time. Activity outdoors can also have a higher fitness benefit than exercise done indoors.

    A walk in the woods or even just a quick trip to a park can help reduce anxiety, improve short-term memory and reduce mental tiredness. Any time I need a boost in my mood, spending even five minutes in the sunshine will help. Imagine the benefits we receive from spending an entire day or even more outdoors.

    As I’ve made it my preference to be outdoors, I find myself inspired and excited about life. Many people claim that their best ideas come to them in the shower. I have had the same happen when in nature. My creativity, confidence, and focus all increase after a hike or a weekend spent camping.

    In between my my generation and the generation of my children, there has been an extreme decrease in the amount of time kids are spending more time indoors than ever before and shares shocking statistics of how little time kids get out VS hours of screen time each day. This has given rise to many negative consequences such as poorer physical and mental health.

    However, as mentioned previously, all the benefits we as adults can receive from time spent outdoors, it is even better for our kids. It is clear that time in nature is good for both adults and children.

    1.According to the passage, we can know that .

    A. it is necessary to take in more vitamin D

    B. being outside helps us get well sooner

    C. indoor exercise is kind of harmful to health

    D. keeping fit is very important for children

    2.How does the author give advice to readers?

    A. By making comparisons.

    B. By presenting his personal experience.

    C. By giving warnings.

    D. By following the order of importance.

    3.When does the author have his best ideas?

    A. When he is having a shower. B. When he is with the kids.

    C. When he is in nature. D. When he comes back from work.

    4.What can we infer from the passage?

    A. The author is an expert in physical health.

    B. The author is strict with his children.

    C. Many children still prefer to stay indoors.

    D. Most parents ignore the value of being outdoors.

    B

    Friends aren’t just fun to have around; they actually help your health. A recent study finds that people who have a larger group of friends in their life live longer than those with few friends by 22%.

    Friends help you develop healthy habits. Friends can influence you to make good health changes in your life. Going out with the girls, for example, may mean you see their healthy choices at lunch and do the same. A night out with the boys may include basketball or running rather than sitting in front of the TV. We often think of friends as a group that we have fun with, but a good time can also mean improving your world in some way. This is especially true when you have a lot of friends around you who want you to live a long and healthy life.

    Friends help us meet the challenges differently. Failures (失败) can cause many kinds of physical problems in our bodies, but friends can change the way we deal with them and help our emotional (情绪的) health, which in turn allows us to meet the challenges in a stronger way.

    Friends help you find diseases earlier. Sometimes, a friend notices something unusual about one’s health that he or she hasn’t even realized. They can point it out and encourage their friends to see a doctor.

    Friends want us to be around a long time. Friends are very important in our life.

    1.What do we learn from the recent study?

    A. People who have many friends live a simple life.

    B. People who have many friends live longer.

    C. Friends are important for your success.

    D. Friends are necessary for your life.

    2.How do friends help us meet the challenges according to the passage?

    A. By improving our abilities.

    B. By encouraging us to see a doctor.

    C. By dealing with the problems for us.

    D. By changing the way we consider failures.

    3.How many advantages does the passage tell about friends?

    A. Five. B. Four. C. Three. D. Two.

    4.What is the passage mainly about?

    A. How to make good friends.

    B. What makes a strong friendship.

    C. Why friendship is important.

    D. Friendship is good for health.

    Li Hua is an English learner who want to improve his reading skills, and he rarely practices. Yesterday he came and asked us for advices. ＂Any good athlete,＂ I said, ＂who will tell you he practices hardly to get in shape and achieve high honors.
