This was a long and expensive trip. The King of Portugal realized if he could find a way to get to India by sailing on the ocean, he would become rich by trading spices in Europe. An explorer by the name of Bartolomeu Dias had discovered the Cape of Good Hope at the tip of Africa. It was thought that there may be a way around the Cape and to the northeast towards India. However, many were skeptical and thought that the Indian Ocean did not connect with the Atlantic Ocean.Vasco da Gama, who was born in 1460s to a wealthy Portuguese family in Sines, was given a fleet of ships by the king and told to discover a sea route around Africa to India. He was also told to look for other trading possibilities along the way.Vasco da Gama left on his first voyage from Lisbon, Portugal, with four ships and 170 men on July 8, 1497. Gama and his men rounded the southern tip of Africa at the Cape of Good Hope on November 22. They then headed north up the coast of Africa. They stopped at trading ports along the way including Mombasa and Malindi. At Malindi(about 120 km northeast of Mombasa), they picked up a local pilot who knew the direction to India. With the help of a monsoon wind they were able to cross the Indian Ocean and arrive in Calicut, India, in less than a month(on May 20，1498). At Calicut, Vasco ran into serious trouble when trying to trade. He had brought little of value in his ships. This made the local traders doubtful of him and very soon he had to leave. The voyage back was disastrous. Around half of his men died from scurvy(坏血病) as the trip back took much longer because of the winds not blowing in his favor. However, when he returned home, he was still a hero. He had found the much needed trade route to India.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了葡萄牙探险家达伽马第一次航行到印度的原因及过程。1What does the underlined word “skeptical” in Paragraph 1 mean?AWorried. BDoubtful.CHopeful.

Sports are a very important part of human life. However, some are considered to be more dangerous, such as extreme sports. Because of the danger those sports can lead to, many people believe they should be banned(禁止). I strongly believe that extreme sports are not a danger and should not be banned. There are many reasons for letting them stay a part of our life. Firstly, extreme sports can increase confidence. Secondly, extreme sports challenge people and develop their skills. And last but not least, extreme sports can add to a persons experience, determination and courage.Some people say that extreme sports are much too risky, and there is always a danger of serious injury or even death. But if you want to remove risks, you will have to avoid many other human activities like driving and traveling by plane. Even crossing a road is dangerous!Many popular sports in fact can make players injured easily. Football, basketball, gymnastics, figure skating and other sports can lead to bad results. Do you know that football is one of the most dangerous sports？A professional football player gets up to 200 injuries of different kinds every year! And the incidents where a player dies during the match are not very rare.Sports do not just have positive physical effects, but they also have mental and social benefits for those who take part in them. I think that taking away elements of risk, danger, and challenge would leave all sports meaningless. Our society will be healthier if more people take part in all types of sports. Banning dangerous sports only limits the freedom of choosing from a wide range of sports that people should feel free to take part in.Of course, if you want to take part in an extreme sport, you should always be well prepared. After all, safety comes first.【解题导语】本文是一篇议论文。极限运动有一定的风险性，很多人倡议禁止极限运动，但作者不赞成这样做。1Why does the author mention such activities as driving and traveling by plane?ATo tell us to avoid such activities.BTo show extreme sports are really risky.CTo show risks are common in our daily life.DTo tell us peoples attitudes toward extreme sports.C解析：推理判断题。根据第二段中的But if you want to remove risks, you will have to avoid many other human activities like driving and traveling by plane.

A professional football player gets up to 200 injuries of different kinds every year! And the incidents where a player dies during the match are not very rare. 可推测，作者认为足球运动也很危险。3Whats the authors attitude toward extreme sports?ADoubtful. BWorried.CNegative. DPositive.D解析：观点态度题。根据文章内容可知，作者认为极限运动不应该被禁止，因此他对极限运动持肯定的态度。4What would be the best title for the text?AShould Extreme Sports Be Banned or Not?BShould Children Play Dangerous Sports?CHow Do We Benefit from Risky Sports?DWhy Do People Love Football?A解析：标题归纳题。根据文章内容可知，本文主要是围绕极限运动是否应该被禁止展开的。BOn any given day, you can find most 10yearold boys throwing a ball around outside, riding their bikes, or playing video games. But Braden Baker is different.Braden is a hearing impaired(受损的) 5thgrader and has to wear hearing aids(助听器). Unluckily, Bradens dog Chewy found his hearing aids on the floor and destroyed themnot once, but twiceand they had to be replaced. But at $3，500 to $6，000 a pair, Bradens carelessness was costly.Bradens mother Ashley sat Braden down and had a long talk about taking better care of his hearing aids, explaining just how much they cost. “I told him that he was lucky we could buy another pair and that some people couldnt afford a new pair，” Ashley said.Those words clearly stuck in Bradens mind, who realized that not every child who needed hearing aids could afford them. So recently, the 10yearold took it upon himself to start a GoFundMe page to raise money for those who arent so lucky.Braden made a video to explain why he wanted to raise money. Ashley said, “We werent really sure how it would turn out. He began with a goal of $1, 000. We woke up the next morning and found that it had raised $400.”This encouraged him to start making even more videos. Fastforward a few months and Bradens GoFundMe page has raised over $15，000, which Braden donated to the Oticon Hearing Foundation. And that money will be used to help other families buy hearing aids for their children.The project has not only taught Braden the value of money, but according to his mom，“hes learned that if you put a small idea into action, amazing things can happen.”As for Bradens advice to those looking for ways to give back to others？“Dont give up！Any small idea can get really big.” 【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了10岁的听障男孩发起筹资网页，帮助贫困听障儿童购买助听器的故事。5Why did Braden change his hearing aids?AHe wanted a better pair of hearing aids.BThe old pairs were destroyed by his dog.CHis hearing problem became more serious.DHe lost the old pairs because of his carelessness.B解析：细节理解题。由第二段的第二句可知，Braden的狗找到并弄坏了他的助听器。6What has led to Braden starting a GoFundMe page?AHis mothers words about the usefulness of hearing aids.BHis mothers encouragement for him to do good things.CHis wish to help poor children with hearing problems.DHis need to buy a new pair of hearing aids.C解析：细节理解题。由第四段中的Bradens mind，who realized that . raise money for those who arent so lucky 可知，Braden了解到有些听障儿童买不起助听器，因此他想筹资帮助这些孩子。7How did Braden and his mother feel when the page was started?AUncertain.

Cutting a few hours of sleep out of your schedule isnt as good an idea as it may appear. Researchers at the Iowa State University report that missing sleep will make you angrier, leaving you illequipped to deal with uneasy situations. This is one of the first studies to provide evidence that sleep loss causes anger.The link between lack(短缺)of sleep and negative moods (anger included) has been proved in past research, but the problem is that we know that the two come together, but not that whether one causes the other. In the current study, Krizan and coauthor Garrett Hisler, an ISU doctoral student, deal with this question.Under the study, volunteers were divided into two groups. The control group followed their normal sleep routine, while the experimental group cut two to four hours of sleep each night for two nights. On average, the control group got almost seven hours of sleep a night, while the experimental group got about four and a half hours each night.In order to measure anger, they had volunteers visit the lab before and after the sleep manipulation(操纵). All the while, they were asked to listen to some unpleasant brown and white noise. Krizan says the purpose was to create uncomfortable conditions.“In general, anger was much higher for those whose sleep was restricted(限制)，”Krizan said. “We manipulated how unpleasant the noise was during the task. As expected, volunteers reported more anger when the noise was more unpleasant. When sleep was restricted, people reported even more anger, regardless of the noise.”Sleep loss is known to increase negative moods, such as anxiety and sadness, and decrease positive moods, such as happiness and excitement. However, the team says they found that sleep loss uniquely affected anger.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。大家都知道睡眠不足和坏情绪之间有联系，
