IX 阅读理解（40分，每题2分） A People use sayings every day .You may ask an unhappy friend why he is “feeling blue”. If youve done only a small part of a big job,you might call it “a drop(滴）in the bucket(桶）.” These sayings dont mean exactly what the words say .But its easy to understand why we use them .Blue is a cool,quiet color.So its a good word for “sad”. A bucket holds too many waste drops. So just one drop is very little. Other sayings are more difficult to understand. When you are going to bed,you will “hit the hay(干草）”You may not understand this saying unless you know where it came from.It was first used in the 1930s.At that time ,many Americans were out of work.Some went from place to place,looking for jobs.At night they were very tired.They often made a bed of hay on the ground. As soon as their heads “hit the hay”,they fell asleep. Here is another saying. When you are sick ,you might say you are “under the weather”.But why?This saying is more than 200 years old. It began in the days when many people went from place to place by boat.When the storm winds shook the boat,people often felt sick .The boat was going “under the weather”. Old sayings like these can be hard for kids to understand .But new sayings come along every day. Kids often understand new sayings better than older people do. Thats why your grandmother might not know what you mean when you say “give me five(击掌）”after winning a game .She might think you are “under the weather”.( ) 71.If your friend is feeling blue ,he or she is . A. crazy B. excited C. surprised D. upset( )72.If someones action is “a drop in the bucket”,he A. does a very good job B. does something special C.does a small part of a big job D. does something meaningless( )73.If you say you are going to “hit the hay”,you mean you will . A.go to bed B.prepare food C.find a job D.go back home( )74.Which saying is more than 200 years old? A. Feeling blue B. Under the weather C. A drop in the bucket D. Hit the hay( )75.Where might you find the passage? A.In a dictionary B. In a guidebook C.In a magazine D.In a storybookBDear students, Most of us get some exercise by walking or riding bikes to school ,but that just isnt enough. Why not play the most popular sport in the word-soccer? Two weeks ago, Ms.Goldstein,the P.E.teacher, started an exciting soccer club. To join it,all you have to do is sign(签）your name and be at school on Saturday mornings.You will make new friends and share information about famous teams and players. Ms.Goldstein will teach,so youll learn some skills.Thats good news because soccer is a game you can play three seasons a year. The only time you cant play is when there is snow.However, it is hard to believe that only nineteen students signed up for the soccer club.Maybe kids dont want to give up their Saturday mornings. But if you think about how you spend Saturday mornings now,soccer seems good.Doing housework and watching TV are not as fun as playing soccer with friends. If you didnt sign up because youve never played soccer before ,dont worry .Beginners are welcome and Ms. Goldstein will give you more help. Just act now!All you have to bring is your feet.

A. difficult B . expensive C. enjoyable D. strange C Ive always been good at making people laugh. I work as a comedian five years ago,so I learned how to stand in front of people.It made me sure of myself.I like being liked and I love making everyone smile. Ive lived in London all my life and have just moved to a large house with my wife Clare and our two children,Jimmy and Madeleine.We spend a lot of time singing and dancing around the house .I grew up with music because my dad is a pianist. My working day is divided （分为）between television and writing books,though TV takes most of my time.I spend three days a week working on the cooking programs I appear in . I eat all kinds of things at home .When I am cooking , I try whatever is in the fridge(冰箱）-its good practice for my TV programs. Im a home-loving person really.I dont like going out but we do go out to eat twice a month. There is nothing better than a night at home playing with the children.I hardly ever go to bed before twelve oclock. Late evening is when fresh thoughts on cooking usually come to me ,so I often write or plan my programs then. When I finally get to bed,I have no trouble sleeping!( )80.

DDid you ride your bike to school when you were a child?About 30years ago,most children walked or rode to school.However, these days most people have experienced heavy traffic(交通）around schools when parents drive their children to school. “Driving your children to school means theyre missing some necessary exercise,”says Jan Garrard,a teacher at Deakin University.Michael Carr-Gregg,a doctor,says allowing children to go to school by themselves can help them learn to be independent . “Our job as a parent isnt to protect our children from every possible danger,but to teach them how to live by themselves,”he says. “People who spend more time outside seem to be healthier and better at solving problems.”However ,many parents arent sure if they should let their children walk or ride to school by themselves? “Theres no hard rule about that ,”says Warren Cann,CEO of the Parenting Research Center.Cann says that children should be at least 10 years old before they independently walk to school.He also thinks that parents need to learn about their childrens own development because children develop very differently.( )85.How do most children in Australia go to school now?

On foot C.By car D.By bus( )86.Michael Carr-Gregg thinks that parents job is to A.teach children how to live by themselves B.protect children from possible dangers C.give children the best education D. help children find the best j
