pretty boring.the teachers at ward elementary in winston salem, north carolina, picked up on that and traded in their students desks for exercise bikes as a part of their read and ride program!the read and ride program began five years ago. one classroom has enough bikes for every student in any given class, and throughout the day teachers bring in their students to the room to ride them and read their books. even regular classrooms have one bike in the back of each room for students who just cant sit still to use to help them burn energy in a good way. students love being more active! teachers enjoy seeing students eager to read. parents appreciate stronger, smarter children. headmasters value this effective and cost-free program. “riding exercise bikes makes reading fun for many kids who get frustrated(挫败的) when they read. thus, they have a way to release that frustration while they ride,” said scott ertl, who started the program. “as we can see, everyone wants to promote literacy and lose weight! but many students who are overweight struggle with sports and activities since they dont want to always be the last or lose with others watching on the playground. on exercise bikes, however, students are able to exert(发挥)themselves at their own levelwithout anyone noticing when they slow down or take a break.” as it turns out, not only are the bikes helping the students burn calories, theyre also helping them learn better and stay focused. at the end of the school year the school analyzed testing data and found that students that spent more time reading and riding did more than twice as well on reading tests than their fellow students who spent the least time in the program.21. why did the teachers start the read and ride program?a. to get the students out of the classrooms.b. to make the students more active in sports. c. to read effectively in an active way.d. to help the overweight students keep fit.22. according to scott ertl，riding exercise bikes_.a. is the least expensive way for exerciseb. can benefit overweight students in both ways c. is the best way to build up students bodyd. is a good way to avoid being watched by teachers23. the program helps the students in the following ways except_. a. help them learn better b. reduce their reading difficultiesc. build up their bodies d. improve their learning concentration【考点】日常生活【试题解析】21. 推理判断由文章的the day teachers bring in their students to the room to ride them and read their books可知全天老师都会带领他们去骑车并在车上看书以及第五段第四句riding exercise bikes makes reading fun for many kids who get frustrated(挫败的)when they read，可知骑车读书使得读书有困难的学生觉得书很有趣，由此可推知骑车读书这种方式使读书变得有效率。22细节理解we can see, everyone wants to promote literacy and lose weight .without anyone noticing when they slow down or take a break.”可知想要通过运动减肥的人想停下来歇息时又怕站在旁边的人嘲笑所以不敢休息，而教室里的骑车就解决了这种麻烦，因为没人会注意你，最后一段第一句not only are the bikes helping the students burn calories也可知能够减肥。23细节理解it turns out, not only are the bikes helping the students burn calories, theyre also helping them learn better and stay focused可知结果是既可以帮助消耗卡路里来增强体质，减肥，也能帮学生们学的更好。【答案】21-23 cbbb nanjing and hangzhou summer camps offered we are

the reason that most people would think. he isnt homeless. in fact he is trying to help the homeless. gregory began his life as a sculptor. but he often felt that his sculptures, which just stood in rich peoples houses for years, lacked a meaningful purpose. so in 201l he decided to put his artistic energies into creating homes to sellnot ordinary homes but small structures built entirely from recycled materials. the thought of creating homes for the homeless didnt occur to him until the year 2013, when a homeless couple asked him for a tarp(防水布). instead of a tarp, gregory offered them something better: a small home with a water tank, a kitchen and a trap for waste. they were so grateful that gregory decided to focus his efforts on helping house the homeless population in his city. and soon his “homeless homes project” was started. before starting a new home, gregory, goes hunting for materials by digging through dustbins. everything he finds is usablerefrigerator doors become house doors; washing machine doors often serve as windows, and the tops of cars become strong roofs. he put wheels at the bottom for users to move their homes around easily. each home takes two to three days to make. so far gregory has donated dozens of homes to the citys most needy. while his small low-cost mobile homes are not the final solution to the problem of homelessness, they are really practical and do provide a warm and safe place for the homeless to stay in. they are simply a way for one man to do something nice for those in need of some help. gregory has written a book titled homeless architecture, where he explains techniques to build those homes and he is now working on weekend workshops. “a lot of people who hear about what im doing want to get involved,” he said. “maybe we can meet someplace and put a couple of homes together.”28. why did gregory turn from making sculptures to creating homes? a. he had no home to live in. b. he had to make more money. c. he lost interest in sculpture. d. he wanted to help the homeless.29. the author mentions the story in paragraph 3 to tell us_. a. gregorys small homes were popular among the homeless b. how gregory got the idea of “homeless homes project” c. the homeless couple asked gregory to produce more homes d. housing the homeless in a city was not an easy task30. what can we conclude from paragraph 4? a. gregory has great trouble hunting for materials for his small houses b. it takes gregory a long time to produce a home c. gregorys work requires imagination and creativity d. everything in the dustbins will be used in gregorys work 31. what can we infer from the last paragraph? a. gregorys project will help more homeless people. b. gregory doesnt need to make small homes now. c. gregorys work will completely solve the homelessness problem. d. a single person can make no difference to social problems. 【考点】人物故事【试题解析】28细节理解通过对文章中第二和第三段的内容的理解，可知gregory完全是出于想帮助有需要的人才这样做的，故选d合适。29细节理解根据文章第三段中的最后一句and soon his “homeless homes project” was

massachusetts bay, actually carried more beer than water. in fact the founding fathers of america liked a drinksamuel adams was a partner in his fathers brewery, and thomas jefferson was famous for importing european wines. early americans took a healthful small drink for breakfast, whiskey was a typical lunchtime drink, ale (麦芽酒) accompanied supper and the day ended with another drink called nightcap. most americans in 1790 consumed an average of 5. 8 gallons of pure alcohol a year. in 1830, consumption reached 7. 1 gallons a year and alcoholism was starting to have a serious influence on communities. women and children might be in physical danger if the man of the house began drinking. if he became ill or lost his job through drinking, there was no social safety net to support or protect his family. eventually, alcoholism was being treated as a disease. by the late 19th century, support for prohibition, banning the manufacture and sale of alcohol, was powerful. the first arrest for driving under the influence of alcohol was in 1897. on 16 january 1919, prohibition was set into law. however, by the 1930s when american economy was experiencing a hard time it was widely believed that making alcohol legal again would provide badly-needed jobs and taxes. so in february of 1933, prohibition was ended. still, prohibition had a great influence on alcohol drinking in this country. in 1955, americans drank an average of 2.3 gallons of pure alcohol a year. the prohibition movement was still quite strong after prohibition ended and it led to a lot of local prohibition on alcohol. the american presidency has done a lot to rehabilitate alcohol and make it respectable again. presidents richard nixon, jimmy carter, bill clinton, ronald reagan and barack obama can all be seen on film drinking socially and making official toasts with international celebrities.32. which is true about the puritans according to the passage? a. their ancestors came to america to sell alcohol. b. they founded the breweries in european countries. c. they had a habit of alcohol drinking. d. they were the major importer of alcohol.33. in what way was an alcoholics family affected by alcoholism?a. his family couldnt afford the drink.b. his family might suffer financially.c. his wife and children might become ill.d. his family ought not be treated equally.34. what can be learned about prohibition in america?a. it came into law in the 19th century.b. it discouraged alcohol drinking.c. its effect disappeared after its removal.d. it failed to forbid drunk driving.35. the passage mainly talks about_. a. the brief history of alcohol drinking in america b. american presidents affection for alcohol drinking c. the puritans bad reputation in america d. the reasons why prohibition came into law【考点】历史地理【试题解析】32推理判断根据第一段中的第一句the puritans get a bad reputation in americaespecially when it comes to alcohol，可推断清教徒已经形成了一种酗酒的坏习惯了，故选c。33细节理解根据文章中第三段的内容women and children might be in

up the phone and make a call. 37 but dont stop on the first try! eventually, you can look at fear in the eyes and say, “go on, im not scared!” 38 make sure this hobby is not linked to your career; you

also give you extra income. set aside at least nine minutes a day for physical exercise. 39 a simple 9-minute run around your neighborhood can do wonders for yourself. exercise can not only help you maintain your regular weight, but also make you feel better about yourself. travel and allow yourself to be interested in new people. dont just limit yourself to your fellow travelers-try to connect
