It challenges the belief（信念）that short-sightedness is caused by computer use, watching TV or reading in weak light.The Australian government researchers believe that the sunlight is good for peoples eyes. They compared the vision（视力）and habits of 100 seven-year-old children in Singapore and Australia. In all, 30% of the Singaporean children were short-sightedthis rate（比率）was ten times higher than Australian children.Both groups spend a similar amount of time reading, watching television and playing computer games. However the Singaporean children spent an average（平均）of only half an hour a day outdoors90 minutes less than the Australian children.Professor Ian Morgan, from the Australian Research Councils vision Centre, said, “Humans are naturally long-sighted, but when people begin to go to school and spend little or no time outdoors, the number of short-sighted people gets larger. Were also seeing more and more short-sighted children in cities all around the world and the main reason may be that city children spend less time outdoors.Daylight can be hundreds of times brighter than indoor light. But why does playing outside prevent us from becoming short-sighted? Scientists believe that natural light has a special chemical（化学物质）which stops the eyeballs from growing out of shape and prevents people from becoming short-sighted.So be outdoors. It doesnt matter if that time is spent having a picnic or having sports.23.How much time did the Australian children spend outdoors on average according to the research?A. 30 minutes. B. 60 minutes. C. 90 minutes. D. 120 minutes. 24.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. If people spend less time outdoors they will certainly become short-sighted.B. Australian children have more knowledge of protecting their eyesight than Singaporean children.C. There will be fewer risks of getting short-sighted if people spend over two hours a day playing outside. D. When people begin to go to school they will become long-sighted.25. What is the fifth paragraph mainly about?A. Why natural daylight has a special chemical.B. Why daylight prevents people from becoming short-sighted.C. Why daylight is much brighter than indoor light.D. What the special chemical which can stop eyeballs from growing out of shape is.BIf you plan to take your pet on a trip，prepare ahead of time. At least two weeks before you leave, take your pet to a vet. See if he or she is fit for travel and ask if he or she should have any medicine before leaving. The vet may suggest certain pills for sickness or for calming the pet.Some states or foreign countries have health laws that say animals must have certain injections（注射）before they can be allowed to enter. Your vet may have this information. You can also get help on the United States and Canadian laws from a book published by the Department of Agriculture which some libraries have. For information on foreign countries, check with their consulates（领事馆）.You can also ask the airlines on which you are travelling.Find out if the places where you plan to stay allow pets because many do not.If you are going by plane or train，ask if pets are allowed. If they are，ask where they will be kept and who will care for them. The big bus lines in this country do not allow pets.Choose your pets box carefully. Plastic boxes are better than cardboard or wooden ones because they can be chewed（嚼碎）.If going by plane or train during warm weather，try to go in the cooler early morning or evening hours. Also try to avoid very cold winter weather because pets often suffer from cold. Even in your own car, be careful. Do not leave the animal inside with the windows closed because the car may become too hot or too cold.26The main idea of this passage is to .

The 29-year-old American was not sure if he had the skills or a strong feeling for it. However，he went to work at an orphanage（孤儿院）in Nepal. His first thought was to make people impressed.“I thought that if I volunteered just once. I could retell the story over and over,” Grennan said in a Huffington Post article.However, his three-month stay in the orphanage turned into an unusual experience. It was 2004 and Grennan had given up his job to begin a year-long around-the-world trip. His first three months were spent in Nepal.When he arrived in the village, he knew nothing about the children or the local culture. When he opened the gate of the Little Prince Childrens Home, he was faced by the excited children.The young American ended up caring for 18 children. He later discovered that they were trafficked（被拐卖的）children. So he walked through the mountains with great difficulty to find the kids families，“I started walking with photos of the kids.” he told the Reuters reporter. “I would show up in villages and show photographs around. I went with 24 photos and I found 24 families.”At the same time, he put his heart into Nepalese culture.Grennan said, “Volunteering is the single best way to see how the rest of the world lives.”He also encouraged others to do what he had done. He believes that volunteering needs only making decisions to show up.Grennans fight against child-trafficking has changed him. His book, Little Prince, came out last week.29.

When Grennan came to the Little Prince Childrens Home, . A. 18 children were ill in bed B. the children there felt excitedC. he decided to give up his job D. hed lived in Nepal for a year31. Which is the best title for the passage?A. Volunteer changes a lot B. Volunteer is with the kidsC. Volunteer becomes a writer D. Volunteer travels in NepalDWithout proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the local people of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the local people become unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the countrys economy（经济）. It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance（推进）the well-being (health and happiness) of local people.Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the countrys economy can suffer.On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a lot of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first-class roads and other support facilities（设施）needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international-class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel will lose money.Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.32. What is the probably reason if local people dislike tourists? A. Tourists come to enjoy the customs and beauty. B. Local people lose jobs. C. A lot of hotels are built. D. Too many tourists cause traffic problems.33.What can we do to solve the problems caused by tourism?A. Make plans properly. B. Help the countrys economy.C. Build fewer hotels. D. Advance the well-being of local people. 34. If tourism grows too quickly, .A. businesses will lose money B. other parts of the countrys economy will make more money C. local people will be happier D. more local people will work for tourists. 35. If the writer wants to add Paragraph 5 to the passage, he may tell us .A. whether people need to build more hotels B. whether people need to plan tourism properly C. how to deal with the problems above D. how to prevent tourism growing too quickly 第卷（非选择题 共42分）四、阅读表达（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词（每空限填一词）。 Many people believe that classical music is not relevant（合适的）to young people today. However, this issue (问题) frequently causes heated debate（辩论）.Some people say that classical music is associated（有联系）only with old people .For example, if you look at the audience at a classical concert , the majority（大多数）is over the age of fifty.Others say it is more popular than we first imagine . Many young people listen to classical music without realizing .It is often used in films and advertisements. For example, a famous piece of classical music was used as the theme music for the 1990 World Cup . Not many people could have given its name , but millions enjoyed it .Also, some people point out that young people produce new music based on classical ideas: for example, it is said that rap（说唱）music was invented by a classical musician in 1912, but it is now used by young people in pop music.However, young people point to the fact that classical music has been outstripped（超越）by technology. To play a classical instrument, such as a violin, you need to study hard and practise for hours. Nowadays, you dont need to get aching arms from practising. A teenager can write and make music using a computer program in the comfort of their own bedroom.A final point you should remember in mind is that the term classical music is used to refer to a great variety of music, from jazz to pieces for large orchestras（管弦乐队）. This makes it even more difficult to say whether classical music is relevant to young people.So, it may be only a minority of young people who play classical instruments , but when it comes to enjoying classical music, it depends on the piece of music. It may be more relevant to young people in the modern world than they realize!Title： Classical MusicIntroductionThe issue of whether classical music is relevant to young people causes heated debate.OpinionsEvidence Classical music is associated only with old people.
