So, more and more teachers are letting students have a ball. By sitting on exercise balls instead of chairs, teachers find students attention improve.Peter, a fifth-grade teacher in West Virginia, the USA, has been using balls as chairs since December 2010. “The students love them”, he says. Peter took a survey of his students. He found that 80% of the students thought sitting on the balls helped them pay more attention to what they were learning.The manager(经理), Mary, felt so strongly about the use of balls as chairs, she encourages the use of the balls. She hopes not only teachers but also students know how to use them. “Our products(产品) are used in 24 states(州), three provinces(省) in Canada, Puerto Rico and Japan,” says Mary. “Research(调查) shows that sitting on the balls makes them sit up straighter,” says Mary, “but it feels not boring.” Because the students are moving, so the kids have more energy and can keep longer.“Besides, theyre fun.” says Peter.（1）What will happen if a student sits on a chair all day in school? The student will _. A . pay more attention to his lessonsB . be funC . like to move around（2）How long has Peter used the balls? A . About six years.B . Only one year.C . 8 years.（3）In how many countries are the balls used as the students chairs? A . Four.B . Three.C . Two.（4）Teachers choose balls instead of chairs because sitting on balls helps the kids_. A . improve the students posture and attentionB . slouch(没精打采地坐着) on the chairsC . Both A and C are correct answers.（5）Which is better for kids to study in class, sitting on a chair or sitting on a ball? A . Sitting on a chair.B . Sitting on a ball.C . They are the same.27. （8分）阅读下面四篇短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。BThink of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back.But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass. If you drop one of these, it will be broken and never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in your life. How ?Dont look down on your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.Dont let other people set goals for you. Only you know what is best for yourself.Dont give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.Dont be afraid of difficulties. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.Dont shut love out of your life by saying its impossible. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; the best way to keep love is to give it wings.Dont run through life so fast that you forget not only where youve been, but also where you are going.Dont be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless. Its a treasure you can always carry easily.Dont use time or words carelessly. You cant get them back. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery*, and today is a gift; thats why we call it “the present”. Life is not a competition, but a trip, step by step.（1）According to the passage, the best way to keep love is to _.A . say its impossibleB . give itC . give it wingsD . hold it tightly（2）The underlined phrase “bounce back”means that_.A . reuseB . recallC . reviewD . return（3）According to the passage,which of the following is true?
