When you read, you can not only learn some new words, but also learn how to use these English words. When you read, it gives you a good example for writing.Good reading tips(建议) Try to read at the right level (水平). Read something that you can (more or less) understand. If you need to stop every three words to use a dictionary, it is not interesting.Try to increase the number of your new words. If there are four or five new words on a page, write them in your notebook. But you dont have to write them while you read. Instead, try to guess their meaning as you read, mark them with a pen. Then come back when you have finished reading to look them up in a dictionary and write them in your own vocabulary book. Then try to remember them.Try to read regularly (定期).For example, read for a short time once a day. Fifteen minutes every day is better than two hours every Sunday. Fix a time to read and keep to it. For example, you could read for fifteen minutes when you go to bed, or when you get up or at lunch time.Read what interests you. Choose a book or a magazine that you like, because you are going to spend time and money to read it. So choose an interesting book. You can also read newspapers. There are many English newspapers in China. For example, 21st Century Teens, English Coaching Paper, etc. They are easy enough for you to understand. There is something interesting in them.26.

What do you hear? What do you smell? If you live in a city, you probably see many people. You hear the noise of traffic. And you breathe the polluted air from cars and factories.We are entering a new time in the history of the world. Before this, most people were farmers. They lived in the countryside. Now many people are leaving the farms and moving into the cities. Theyre looking for jobs. The cities are growing very quickly. Most cities are very crowded. People are driving more cars, burning more fuel(燃料), using more water, eating more food, making more garbages, and producing more things in factories than ever before. Life is becoming difficult.Some governments are trying to plan for the future. Theyre building new roads, putting up new houses, looking for more water, and limiting the population growth in certain areas. Still, city planners are getting worried. People are crowding into the cities faster. The cities are short of room. What is the answer to this problem?30. Whats the main problem?A. The cities are becoming more and more crowded.B. The cities are becoming smaller.C. There would be no food or water.D. City planners are getting worried.31. The underlined word “limiting” may mean in Chinese.A. 扩充 B. 消灭 C. 限制 D. 优化32.

Cities wont have enough room for people to live in. CIn the Caucasus Mountains, nearly 50 out of every 100,000 people live to celebrate their 100th birthday, and many dont stop at 100! In America only 3 people in 100,000 reach 100. But these old people arent alone. The people who live high in the Himalaya Mountains and the Andes Mountains, seem to share the secret of long life, too.First of all, hard physical work is a way of life for all of these long-lived people. They begin their long days of physical work as children and never seem to stop. For example, Mr Rustam is 142 years of age. He has experienced several wars. His wife is 116 years old. They have been married for 90 years. Mr Rustam doesnt want to stop his work as a farmer, “Why? What else would I do?” He asks. Oh, he has slowed down a bit. Now he might work for 6 hours in the field instead of 10.Another factor (因素) that may contribute to the good health of these people is their isolation. Most of them are kept off the modern world.Inherited (遗传的) factors also help. Most of the longest-lived people had parents and grandparents who also reached very old ages. So good family genes (基因) may be one factor in living longer.Finally, although these three groups dont eat exactly the same food, they eat little animal meat. Their diets are full of fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains, cheese and milk. They never eat more food than body needs. w ww .xk b 1.com33.Which of the following contributes to the good health of all these long-lived people?A. Fresh air in the mountains.B.

But some of them dont really know how to eat well when eating out. Here is some important advice.The first is to eat less fast food. The harm of eating too much fast food is getting weight because fast food, such as French fries and other deep fried food, contains（包含） too much fat. Too much fast food is bad for your body. So dont eat it too often.Soda is another thing you should pay attention to. Both cokes and sodas contain a lot of sugar and they can slow down a persons calcium absorption(钙的吸收), so its best to drink as little soda or coke as possible.Food in the dining-room may not be as tasty as fast food, but its actually easier to make healthy choices. Human bodies need all kinds of food. You can have a dinner that contains proteins（蛋白质）, vitamins and complex carbohydrates(碳水化合物). In other words, a meal with fish or meat, vegetables and some bread or rice will provide you with most nutrients that the body needs. 46. _ on BreakfastAdviceFoodContents（成分）KindEat less fast foodFrench fries and other deep fried foodToo much 47. _Unhealthy foodDrink as 48._ soda or coke as possible.
