    Uganda is a country in East Africa and,as in many such countries,a high percentage of the population,about 80 percent,are village-dwellers living in huts,which are often no bigger than a garage. The walls of the huts are made of mud,which is held together by reeds and sticks,and the roofs of the older ones are thatched（覆盖）with grass,although an increasing number of newer village houses have roofs made from corrugated（波纹形的）iron.
    Several generations of the same family live together in the huts,which are usually divided into two sections by a curtain. The inner section,the one furthest from the open door of the hut,is where everyone sleeps and food is prepared and served in the outer part. If the family owns chickens or goats,they are kept in a small room attached to the main house.
    Food is usually prepared on open fires although some people prefer to cook inside. However,this is quite dangerous and also means that the walls of the hut are stained by smoke and the atmosphere is acrid. The family sit in a circle on mats while they eat.
    Newer village houses are almost always made of corrugated iron and are bigger,with one or two separate bedrooms and the kitchen in a smaller building beside the main house. But,old or new,the houses are not powered by electricity,and all homes are lit by paraffin（石蜡）candles called “tadobba”.
    Nor is there any running water in the houses. Some villages have their own well,but in many cases,collecting water involves a long and arduous walk to a river or spring,carrying plastic containers or pots made of clay.
    Children are the ones who have to fetch water,and they have to do this early in the morning before they go to school,or in the evening when they come home. They often have to climb high hills or walk through valleys with narrow paths through dense vegetation. It is no surprise that they grow up muscular and fit after such daily exercise,walking for several kilometres carrying such heavy weights.
    小题1:Most Ugandans live        .
    A．with their whole family in large mud houses in the countryside
    B．in towns in small houses made of mud and iron
    C．in villages in small houses made of wet earth,grass and wood
    D．With their parents and children as well as their chickens and goats
    小题2:Where is food usually prepared?
    A．In the kitchen.
    B．On the floor in the middle of the house.
    C．On fires in front of the hut.
    D．In a small room attached to the main house.
    小题3:How are the old and new houses the same?
    A．Both of them have roofs made of corrugated iron.
    B．Neither of them have a garage or kitchen.
    C．Neither of them have electricity,lights or running water.
    D．Both of them have water inside but no electric light.
    小题4:The majority of Ugandan children have to          .
    A．go to a well or a river and often carry it for a long distance
    B．do a lot of work cooking and carrying water
    C．collect water on the way home from school
    D．get water out of their own well

    Before you make friends, you have to decide who you want to be your friends. Most people like to have friends who like to do the same kinds of things they do.
    The quickest way to make a friend is to smile. When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk to. It may not be easy at first to smile, but remember most people will stay away from a scared or angry looking face.
    One easy way to start a conversation with someone is to say something nice about him. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?
    Ask your new friends questions about themselves. Who’s their favorite singer, where do they live, what do they do after school are all good questions to start a conversation. Make sure you have something to add to the conversation, too. When someone asks you a question, do have an answer for them. There is nothing that will stop a conversation quicker than a shrugfor an answer.
    Kids who show an interest in other kids and who are kind and friendly make good friends. Remember, everyone wants to be around people who like to do similar things and people who are nice to them.
    小题1:This passage gives us some advice on_______.
    A．how to make friends
    B．what kind of person you can make friends with

    British Summer Time runs from the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October. In the depths of winter the nights in the UK are anything from 15-19 hours long. Longer nights mean frost and fog are more likely to form.
    Twice a year the clocks change, forward in the spring and then back again in the autumn. But why? It happens twice a year. We all change our clocks and watches by one hour. In the spring, we add an hour, and go onto what is called British Summer Time, while in the autumn, we do the reverse, and return to Greenwich Mean Time.
    Why bother?
    It’s all to do with saving the hours of daylight, and was started by a guy called William Willett, a London builder, who lived in Petts Wood in Kent. Basically, he figured that you could improve the population’s health and happiness by putting forward the clocks by twenty minutes every Sunday in April and do the opposite in September.
    Economics
    His idea was not taken up, even though a “Daylight Saving Bill” was introduced some five years before the outbreak of World War One. But once the war started, it was considered wise to economics, to promote greater efficiency in using daylight hours, and in the use of artificial lighting. And so in 1916, “Daylight Saving Time” was introduced. Even though most countries abandoned this after that war, some eventually decided that it was a good idea, and most of these nations began to keep it throughout the year.
    Experiment
    Since 1972, Britain has decided to go with Greenwich Mean Time in winter, and British Summer Time in Summer.
    But back in 1968, Britain tried a four-year experiment by advancing time one hour ahead of GMT throughout the year.
    But those living further north, particularly in Scotland, found it most unsatisfactory, with dark mornings for much of the year, and the experiment was dropped.
    But the arguments go on …and on.
    小题1:Why some countries decide to change the clocks after World War One?
    A．To improve the people’s health and happiness.
    B．To do a certain experiment
    C．To save energy to develop economies.
    D．All of the above.
    小题2:What can you infer from the passage?
    A．The idea of changing the clocks suffered disagreement.
    B．The people in Scotland don’t change the clocks.
    C．The idea was first thought of by an educator.
    D．It’s unnecessary to change the clocks.
    小题3:What is the real meaning of the last sentence of the passage?
    A．Nobody in the UK likes the idea.
    B．All things need arguments.
    C．The British are fond of arguments.
    D．Different views of the idea still exist.

    Visiting London can be an expensive trip, so establishing a budget and finding bargains when you arrive will help you get around London on the cheap. The following steps can help you find cheaper alternatives for transport for your London trip.
    l Familiarize yourself with the city’s boroughs and specifically the area where you will be staying. You can use a street map, or an online map search engine, to establish where in the city you will be staying and the distance you are from the major tourist attractions you want to visit.
    l Find a local provider of Transport for London tickets or travel cards, since your first bargain purchase will be an Oyster Card. Traveling around London with an Oyster Card will give you access to the cheapest option of transportation methods and the Oyster Card is accepted citywide on buses, boats and the London Underground, known by the locals as “the tube”.
    l Seek out your nearest Tube Station. The Tube is the cheapest and most reliable form of transportation and runs from around 6 a.m. until around 1 a.m. ..., depending on the line or the station.
    There are 287 tube stations in London that accept the Oyster Card, with a high concentration in central London. If you are staying anywhere in central London, there will be a tube station less than 10 minutes away.
    The Transport for London website offers a tube station search facility to find the nearest subway station to any location in the city. When you find a tube station, you can easily locate the closest bus stop by using the comparison bus-tube maps at the station’s entrance.
    l Follow the Transport for London Tube Guide to your destinations and always plan ahead. Making a plan for transport will save you unnecessary expenses, wasted trips on the tube and doubling back on your journey .

    You want to have fun and adventure and so you decide to travel somewhere to do it. Sounds like a simple enough thing. And basically it is. But what is adventure? That is the key here and the answer can be different for different people.
    For those who love sports, adventure travel can have a whole different meaning than for those who like history. The physical travel types that you can find include such adventure travel as white water rafting (白浪漂流), kayaking or climbing and hiking to some mountains somewhere. To the hiker, backpacking across Ireland might be their adventure. For this type of person, adventure travel almost always includes something physical. Often the goal is to push their body’s limits and test their individual endurance (耐力).
    For those who less want to climb mountains, adventure travel might mean traveling to Nepal and taking in the local festivals. Wine tasting in Italy is also vacation adventure for the more relaxed traveler who enjoys peace and comfort. Anything that is opposite to the normal scope (范围) of the traveler’s lifestyle defines (定义) adventure.
    Adventure travel is not necessarily a one-size-fits-all type of vacation. Adventure depends on the person’s physical limits, how much money the person has and what the person enjoys doing. Going beyond the normal is adventurous for many. If your life is quite busy, then sitting on a beach in the moonlight with your family might be adventure for you. The point is not what you do but that you have a good time and that it is an adventure for YOU — not for the person next to you.
    Do not sit home this year when vacation time rolls around. Go beyond your normal routine and try something new. If you usually spend your vacation sun-bathing on a beach, try hiking, instead, through the mountains. Look around you, think beyond your comfort zone and head out on an adventure vacation.
    小题1:For a quiet traveler, he is most likely to choose _________.
    A．backpacking across a country
    B．wine tasting in a bar
    C．hiking to some mountains
    D．white water rafting
    小题2:To have an adventure travel, the most important is _________.
    A．whether you enjoy yourself
    B．whether you try something dangerous
    C．where you go for the traveling
    D．what you do in the traveling
    小题3:The underlined word “beyond” in Paragraph 4 probably means “_________”.
    A．according toB．later thanC．more thanD．less than
    小题4:From the passage, we can make a conclusion that _________.
    A．adventure travel always includes something dangerous
    B．adventure travel will cost you a large sum of money
    C．anything that goes beyond the normal is adventure travel
    D．adventure travelers like to do things to the limits of their body
    小题5:The best title for the passage may be “_________”.
    A．Tips on adventure travel
    B．Who is interested in adventure travel
    C．What is adventure travel
    D．Popular places for adventure travel

    Recipients（接受者）of this year's Annenberg scholarships were announced on June 19. Brittany Blythe was one of them.
    In seventh grade，Brittany Blythe dreamed of being a cheerleader（啦啦队队员）. Her school’s coaches were less than enthusiastic. “They said. ‘I don't know how you’ll be able to do it’. ”she recalls. “‘You won’t be able to do it’.”
    But Brittany，now a junior at Strath Haven High School near Philadelphia，refused to give up. And when the junior school cheerleaders won a tournament last year, she was right there，dancing and cheering with the rest of the team.
    Not bad for someone whose legs were cut off below the knee when she was two years old.
    Brittany,18,was born without shinbones(胫骨）—“just blood and muscle tissue，”as she puts it. When she tried to walk, her legs twisted.    
    After the operation, she adapted quickly. “From day one，I basically jumped up and wanted to do everything,’’ she says. Prostheses(假肢)allowed her to move around upright. But too slowly to keep up with her friends. Brittany’s solution was to take the legs off and walk on her knees something she still does when safety and comfort permit.
    She has been rarely discouraged. Other children laughed at her through the years，especially in junior high school，but she says the challenge only made her stronger. Now she’s trying to convince her coaches to let her remove the prostheses and be a flyer. The cheerleader who's thrown in the air and caught by her teammates.
    Brittany doesn’t think her problems put her at a disadvantage. “My disability was the first thing I had to get through., and that’s going to prepare me for the future. ”she says. “It’s all just a test：If someone throws you a difficult problem，what are you going to do?”   
    小题1: What was the coaches’ first attitude towards Brittany's dream?
    A．SupportiveB．EnthusiasticC．OptimisticD．Doubtful
    小题2: What was Brittany’s reaction after the operation?
    A．She abandoned herself to self-pity.
    B．She refused to use the prostheses.
    C．She accepted the result and tried to get used to it.

    A．To stop others’laughing at her.
    B．To prove her coaches wrong.
    C．To remove her prostheses.
    D．To be a flyer.

    A．doesn’t think she is better than others
    B．is not well prepared for the future
    C．takes a positive attitude towards life
    D．likes the challenge of learning new things
