Most of his books are still popular even today.In 1812, Charles Dickens was born in Portsmouth, England. Dickens didnt like playing with other boys when he was a little child, but he loved reading books. Childhood was not easy for Dickens. He began to work at a factory at the age of 12. Every day, he spent 10 hours washing bottles and cleaning shoes.When Dickens was 16, he became a reporter for a newspaper. During that time, Dickens wrote his first book, The Pickwick Papers. The book came out in 1836-37 and made Dickens rich and famous. His hard times were at an end.Most of Dickens books are about the difficulties of living in Victorian England. The characters（人物）in his books are often children. They usually live a hard life in a boarding（寄宿）school, or have to work in a factory at a young age.However, Dickens works are all about hope. He wrote sad and dark stories, but they are always filled with humor（幽默）. And most of his stories have happy endings, as with A Christmas Carol. It is about a selfish man. He finds love and friendship after looking back on his life one Christmas Eve. （1）Where was Dickens from?（2）Was life difficult for Dickens when he was a child?（3）What made Dickens rich and famous?（4）What do the children in his books usually do?（5）Why does the writer say Dickens works are all about hope.?13. （6分）阅读理解 Hello, Im Zheng Yishi from Shanghai. Im 15 years old. I study at Walsh Jesuit High School in Cleveland, Ohio, US. I like reading, traveling and listening to music. Im glad to share my experience with you.Have you ever wondered what PE classes are like in other countries? In China, PE tests are required to graduate from both middle school and high school. To get good grades on the PE tests, Chinese students will need to practice running as well as doing sit-ups and pull-ups. However, this is not the way that PE classes work in US high schools.In my high school, we are required to take two terms of PE to graduate. We play real sports during PE classes, such as basketball and volleyball. There are also some other typical American sports that we often play, such as kickball and dodgeball (躲避球).I didnt know the rules of kickball and dodgeball when I first came to the US. The teacher allowed me to sit on the sidelines and watch how other students played it in order to let me find out the rules.We also learn some useful life skills in PE. Last year, I learned how to do CPR(心肺复苏), which is a life-saving skill. We were also taught how to provide first aid to someone who is choking(窒息).These skills are a large part of the final grade for the PE class in my high school. Self-defense(自卫)is taught in PE class as well. This includes some tae kwon do(跆拳道)and karate(空手道) skills, as well as Chinese kung fu. It is practical. I prefer PE classes in the US to the ones in China. I think they are more fun and useful. What do you think?（1）The writer learned the rules of kickball and dodgeball through . A . a teachers instructionB . watching others playC . playing the sport herselfD . watching online videos（2）Which of these things did the writer NOT learn about in PE classes at Welsh Jesuit High School? A . How to play sports.B . Lifesaving skills.C . Self-defense skills.D . How to treat burns.（3）The story is written to . A . introduce the writers favorite sportsB . explain what US PE classes are likeC . show why US students dont like PE classesD . suggest that China should change its PE classes14. （10分）NamePersonal InformationNorman BethuneBorn in 1890 in Canada.A doctorCame to China in 1938Died in 1939 in ChinaCeline DionBorn in Montreal, CanadaA singing starIn 1997, sang My Heart Will Go On for the film TitanicThomas EdisonBorn in 1847, Kentucky, USAMade over 1,000 inventionsDied in 1931BillGatesBorn in 1955 in the USAWrote Business the Speed of ThoughtOwns Microsoft CompanyMark TwainBorn in 1835 in the USAA writerWrote The Adventures of Tome SawyerDied in 1910（1）_ is from Canada.A .

It challenges the belif that short-sightedness is caused by computer use , watching TV or reading in weak light .Australian government researchers believe that sunlight is good for peoples eyes . They compared the vision （视力）and habits of 100 seven-year-old children in China and Australia .In all,30% of the Chinese children were short-sighted .This percentage was ten times higher than Australian children.Both groups spent a similar amount of time reading, watching TV and playing computer games .However , the Australia children spent an average of two hours a day outdoors ,90 minutes more than the Chinese children.Professor Ian Morgan 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 peoplegets larger. We are 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 .
