you always worry about my safety!” said jason.“you will have to follow some rules,” said his grandmother. “you can only ride in the park never on the streets. you have to promise to wear a helmet (头盔). if you hurt yourself too much, i have the right to take your skateboard away. is it a deal?”“you bet!” jason was so excited that he jumped off the sofa. a week later he had a board and a helmet. on saturday, his grandmother dropped him off near the park. he was happy to have a grandmother who let him try new things.kids in the park were moving quickly up and down the ramps (坡道). they flew into the air and landed as easily as birds. when he watched the x games, jason felt like he was doing the tricks himself. but watching these kids up close, he knew that none of it was going to be easy. he felt a little bit scared.very slowly he carried his board to the ramp. taking a deep breath, he put his right foot on the board. he kicked off with his left foot. for a few seconds he glided (滑行) along, just waiting to fall. then he came to a stop. kicking off again, he waited for the worst to happen. again, he stayed up. the third time he kicked, lost his balance, and fell hard on his left knee.it hurt, but it was no big deal! why had he been so scared? now he felt calm because things had gone wrong, and he was fine!next time he kicked off harder and went fast and farther. “excellent!” said a girl as she passed him. “extreme!” laughed jason to himself. “not quite.” 21. jasons grandmother agreed to let him try skateboarding unless _. a. he finished his homework b. he liked the sport c. he observed some rules d. he won a bet 22. jason jumped off the sofa because _. a. he was allowed to go skateboarding b. he was angry at his grandmother c. he was going to play outside d. he was given a board and a helmet 23. after watching the kids skateboarding in the park, jason felt skateboarding was _. a. easy b. difficult c. boring d. exciting 24. the girl praised jason for his _. a. skill b. honesty c. courage d. kindness bjody williams was born in vermont in 1950. like many teenagers of her generation, she became devoted to the idea of peace while being against the war in vietnam when young.in late 1991, bobby muller, president of the vietnam veterans of america foundation, called williams to see if she was interested in working together to ban (禁止) landmines(地雷) worldwide. she was glad to make use of the opportunity to persuade non-governmental organizations to support this worthwhile idea. millions of landmines remain buried in the ground in countries around the world long after the wars in which they were used have ended.in october 1992, the international campaign to ban landmines (icbl) was formally set up. the icbl called for an end to the use, production, and trade of landmines. as the campaigns leader, williams wrote and spoke widely on the landmine problem and the need for a total ban. together with shawn roberts, she wrote a book that described the hidden costs of landmine use, such as the long term effects of landmines. the landmines mean that people cannot travel or work safely. land goes unused, causing unemployment and poverty (贫穷). there is also the huge cost of treating landmine victims (受害者).their efforts were rewarded in 1996, when a meeting hosted by the canadian government agreed to write out an international treaty (条约) banning landmines. in december 1997, the treaty was signed, with the support of 122 countries. in five years, jody williams and the icbl have achieved their goal of introducing a landmine ban. the norwegian nobel prize committee awarded williams and the icbl the nobel peace prize in the same year.to date, more than 156 countries have signed the landmine ban treaty. 25. which of the following is not true according to the text? a. jody williams served during the war in vietnam. b. bobby muller put forward the idea of banning landmines. c. jody williams received the nobel peace prize in 1997. d. 122 countries signed the landmine ban treaty in 1997. 26. jody williams book is about _. a. how to reduce the bad effects of landmines b. what the possible bad effects of landmines are c. how much it costs to remove the hidden landmines d. what the government can do to remove the hidden landmines 27. an international treaty banning landmines was made in _. a. 1991 b. 1992 c. 1996 d. 1997 c“id like to be at a healthier weight,” a friend told me. “but we just dont have the money to buy expensive diet foods and there isnt enough money to join a gym.” many people feel that way that a healthy diet and exercise plan is out of reach because of their high cost. dont lose hope! well be looking at ways to make healthy choices without spending too much money. first you dont need to buy the expensive pre-prepared “diet foods.” back in the early 1970s when i started housekeeping, 90% of the food i bought was ingredients. very few things were preprocessed (预处理的). now 90% of the food you find in the store is quick food. thats a bad thing. quick foods like boxed “just add hamburger” meals have had the fiber (纤维) removed to make them faster to prepare. take a look at the label (标签) on that box. it often has low numbers listed under “fiber” because fiber takes longer to digest. if the low fiber meal is digested, the result is that your body begins to store fat. besides, your body is short of nutrients (营养物质). you will be driven to eat more to try to make up for the low quality of the food you are eating.and then there are the chemicals the producers add to the quick meals to make them palatable. if not, the stuff would taste like cardboard and you wouldnt enjoy it. however, these chemicals certainly arent good for your health. whats the answer? buy whole ingredients and give up the expensive, low nutrition, processed foods. do the cooking yourself and you will have control over what is in your food and it will cost less, too. 28. people who find it hard to get a healthier weight think _. a. they had too much diet food b. they didnt make a detailed plan c. they have no time to do exercise in gym d. they cant afford diet food and to exercise in gym29. the author doesnt like quick food mainly because _. a. it contains too much fat b. it makes people eat more c. it has low fiber d. it takes longer to digest30. the underlined word “palatable” in paragraph 4 means _. a. freshb. deliciousc. healthyd. poor31. the author suggests in the text that people should _. a. control the amount of food b. eat more processed foods c. cook food for themselves d. choose cheap ingredients din the early 1900s, carol ryrie brink lived with her grandmother caddie on a tiny farm in idaho. the farm was a great place to live. besides wonderful tall climbing trees, it had cats and chickens and a horse, which she rode all over the countryside and through the streets of town. even so, carol was sometimes lonely. she would climb to the top of her favorite tree and make up stories to cheer herself up. the favorite part of her day was when grandmother caddie would sit with her and tell stories about the adventures (冒险经历) she and her brothers had. carol loved the stories so much that when she grew up, she decided to write a book about them. thousands of children throughout the world have read and loved caddie woodlawn. carols book won a special award (奖项) called the newbery medal. each year only one childrens book is chosen to win this award.carol said it was her son and daughter who inspired (激励) her to write for children. that wasnt easy when she was busy taking care of a family. sometimes an idea would come to her while she was washing the supper dishes. she would make a quick note and come back to write it out more fully after her children were asleep. carol wrote 27 books in her life, many of which are about her life in idaho. besides the newbery medal, she won many more awards. later when another author mary reed wrote a book about carol ryrie brink, she summed up (概括) carols life by saying, “she tried to live in a way that would not harm others, to never waste a day, and to make the most of her life.” 32. when she felt lonely on the farm, carol would _. a. ride a horse to the town b. ask her grandmother to read her a story c. climb all the tall trees d. make herself happy with her own stories33. what do we know about caddie woodlawn?
