Swimming is one of the most popular activities in summer. It can be learned early in life. Little children can learn to swim as soon as they walk. In fact, you need the same skills in walking as in swimming. However, I believe that five is the best age to learn it. By five or six, a child knows fear of water, a very important thing to know. Its wise to be afraid. The young understand that the water can sometimes be very dangerous. When you swim, you should follow certain rules: Never swim alone! No matter how good you are in the water, dont risk drowning by swimming alone. If you swim by yourself, you may get into trouble. Dont go beyond your abilities. Most swimmers know it clearly not to swim too far from the bank or the beach. Dont show off your skills by doing dangerous tricks. Dont smoke. Swimming depends on a healthy body. Work at any activity that builds muscles (肌肉).1.Little children can learn to swim as soon as _ . A.they can talk B.they start walking C.they have no fear of the water D.they are five or six years old2. The writer believes its very _for a child to know the fear of water.

The “Model T” was very famous_ Abefore 1908 Bbetween 1982 and 1908 Cbefore 1892 Dafter 1908 ( C ) People need to relax and enjoy themse1vesOne way they can have a good time is to watch a baseball game or another sports eventEven thousands of years ago，groups of people gathered to watch skilled athletes（运动员）Over 2000 years ago in Greece，certain days in the year were festival daysThese were holidays when people stopped work and enjoyed themselvesThey liked to watch athletes take part in races and other games of skillThe most important festival was held every four years at the town of OlympiaIt was held in honor of the Greek god Zeus（Zus）For five days，athletes from all parts of the Greek world took part in the Olympic GamesAt the Olympic Games，people could watch them box，run，jump and so onThere was a relay race between two teams of men in which a lighted torch（火矩）was passed from runner to runnerThe Olympic Games were thought to be so important that cities which were at war with one another had to stop fightingPeople were allowed to travel to the games safelyThousands of people came to Olympia from cities in Greece and from her colonies（殖民地）in Africa ，Asia and ItalyThey met as friends to cheer their favorite athletes and to enjoy themselves 8What happened in Greece over 2000 years ago？APeople stopped work and enjoyed themselvesBThe cities there were often against one anotherCPeople watched baseball gamesDPeople didnt go to any games at all 9What did people do at the games？AThey fought BThey just talked to friendsCThey cheered for good athletes DThey tried to find friends 10Greek cities then were fighting so they_Awere weak（虚弱的）Bwere strongC.couldnt go to other cities freely D.could see each other11The best title for the story is“_”AGreece at War BTogether for the Games CStop Fighting DSport ( D ) Do you know why people look the way they look? What inside our bodies makes us grow in a certain way? The answer is DNA. It was first discovered by a young Swiss doctor in 1868. DNA is like a computer program for your body. Almost every cell(细胞) in your body includes DNA. The way DNA in the cell decides why you are the way you are. For example your friend might have larger ears than you. This is because their DNA is different from yours. DNA lives in the cell and is ordered in a structure called a “double helix(双螺旋)”. In each double helix there are links called as chromosomes(染色体). These chromosomes are made from four bases that arrange （分类，安排）themselves in millions of different ways. The way these bases choose to line up is what makes the DNA code for that cell. DNA is also called a “gene(基因)”. This is a very interesting thing. Genes are passed down from your parents. That is why you might have the same smile like your dads or moms! In February, scientists found the skeleton(骨架) of Richard III, King of England from 1483-1485, under a car park in England. It seems unlikely that scientists could identify(识别) a 527-year-old skeleton. However, they matched （使相配）the skeletons DNA to a sample from one of his direct descendants(后代). How amazing!12. discovered DNA. A. A Swiss scientist B. A Swiss doctor C. A young student D. A Swiss worker 13. Which of the following is Wrong? A. DNA is a part of the cell. B. Different people have different DNA. C. The chromosomes are made up of four bases. D. Scientists could not identify a 527-year-old skeleton. 14. What is the main function of “genes”? A. They decide your childrens appearances or characters. B. They make your children have the same smile as you. C. They make your children stay healthy. D. Theyre good for scientific researches. 15. Whats the main idea of this passage? A. What decides DNA. B. How DNA is arranged. C. What genes are like.D. How DNA works in our body.
