并在 答题卡上将该项涂黑 A Are you carrying too much on your back at school I m sure lots of chi ldren of your age will say Yes Not only the students in China have this pr oblem but children in the United States also have heavy school bags Doctors are starting to worry that younger and younger students are having back and neck problems as a result of school bags being too heavy for them It s hard for me to go upstairs with my bag because it s so heavy said Rick Hammond an 11 year old student in the US Rick is among students who have common school bags with two straps 带子 to carry them but many other students choose rolling bags But even with rolling bags getting up stairs and buses is still a problem for children Many of them have hurt their backs and necks because of the he avy school bags But how much is too much Doctors say students should carry no more than 10 to 15 of their own body weight Scott Bautch a back doctor said children under Grade 4 should stay with 10 But it is also important that older children don t stay with over 15 because their bodies are still growing Children are losing their balance and falling down with their school bags he said Parents and teachers are starting to tell children to only take home library books they will be reading that night Some teachers are using pieces of paper or thin workbooks for students to take home One of the best answers is as some children said to have no homewo rk at all 21 From the passage we can know that A only children in China carry too heavy school bags B both children in China and the US carry too heavy school bags C children in other countries don t carry too heavy bags D only children in the US carry too heavy school bags 22 Children feel it hard for them to go upstairs because A they are too young B they don t know how to go upstairs C their school bags are too heavy D their parents don t always go upstairs with them together 23 If a child carries a heavy school bag A his back and neck will be hurt B his head and arms will be hurt C his hands will be hurt D his feet will be hurt 24 According to the doctor Scott Bautch if a child in Grade 5 weighs about 30 kilos the school bag he carries should not be over A 5 kilos B 3 kilos C 5 5 kilos D 4 5 kil os B Falling temperatures are no excuse to avoid outdoor exercise with your do g Along with making sure you are appropriately dressed your dog should al so be properly protected from the elements Some large breed dogs such as L abrador Retrievers Golden Retrievers German Shepherds and Huskies can t olerate the colder weather better than others These dogs may also develop a t hicker coat over time as they are exposed to colder weather Smaller breeds however like Chihuahuas and Miniature Pinschers breeds with short coats and puppies should wear some type of protection i e a coat or sweater if the temperature drops too low Look for coats or s weaters with high collars or a turtleneck that covers your dog from the base o f the tail on top to the belly underneath Dog booties 毛线鞋 provide good protection from chemicals or salts on the pavement as well as mud If you don t use the booties be sure to wipe your dog s paw pads with room temperature water after taking it outside Other tips When you bathe your dog dry him completely before taking him out in the cold weather for a walk or exercise It is especially important to keep you r dog well groomed 打扮 during the winter months to protect him from the elements If your dog frequently participates in outdoor activities during the colder months increase his food intake especially protein to help keep his coat grow thick and healthy Dogs that are not as active during the winter months may need to have their food consumption reduced The amount of time you spend outside with your dog will depend on hi s size breed type and age Remember that ill or elderly dogs are more sensi tive to cold weather Dogs whom cold weather agrees with can spend hours o utside without getting cold but some of the smaller and younger dogs exercise sessions should be kept shorter Dogs should not be left outside unattended Another activity to consider is doggie daycare which is an excellent al ternative during cold weather months It s a great place for your dog to get pl enty of physical and mental stimulation while being with other dogs Banfield Pet Hospital 25 The underlined word elements in the first paragraph probably means A extreme weather B potential enemies C serious diseases D terrible accidents 26 Dog owners are advised to in the text A bathe their dogs less during the winter months B avoid outdoor exercise with their dogs in cold weather C make their dogs wear booties for a walk outside every time D feed their dogs more food if they re frequently taking them out in winter 27 The author thinks dog owners should in the cold weather A not walk the dog B protect their dog pets from being hurt C stop walking the dog D avoid walking the dog 28 What is the best title for this passage A How to make your dog exercise in cold weather B Walk dogs in the c old weather C Dogs like to take exercise in winter D Take good care of d ogs C When did you last visit a shopping mall In many places the answer would be last weekend Some people go even more often Why For one t hing malls offer goods and services that people need all in one place food clothing things for their houses entertainment even medical services So are malls one of the highlights of modern civilization Environmental a ctivists would say No They would go even further and say that consumer b ehavior is causing a huge environmental disaster They cause consumers of ign orance of the side effect of their shopping urban sprawl 扩大 Social scientists agree that patterns of development have changed the lands cape a great deal in the last half century Before 1950 most people lived in towns or cities and either walked to work or took public transportation Only very wealthy people had automobiles Farmers lived in rural areas or isolated villages and came into town only when they needed things they couldn t produ ce themselves If you gazed at the landscape you would see towns surrounded by countryside Then a massive change occurred Automobiles became affordable and people were quick to adopt them No w ambitious workers could live in the suburbs the areas just outside cities which started to grow rapidly As long as there was lots of cheap land in the suburbs no one paid much attention to the usage of that land Malls fast food restaurants cinemas and car dealerships spread out in large flat bui ldings These one storey buildings and their parking lot took up a great deal s pace Well meaning farmers thought they were better off selling their land th an growing crops In ignorance no one realized that once the land was built up in urban sprawl the good farming land would be ruined forever There w as no way to preserve it Only in recent years have people come to mourn the old way of life as t hey have developed insight into the problems Now people realize that urban s prawl has come with serious environmental problems The negative aspects of sprawl include air and water pollution loss of agricultural land traffic jams and the death of businesses in the old town centers Many scholars think t he time has come to analyze the problems better so we can develop appropriat e policies to control further sprawl Some think the best way to do is to educ ate citizens about their priceless environment 29 What is mainly discussed in the passage A Weekend Fun B Urban Sprawl C New Automobiles D Isolated Villa ges 30 What does the underlined word They refer to in the first paragraph A Scientists B Activists C Farmers D Mall s 31 Who do environmental activists blame

my deep concern for she said quietly Paul always remember that there are other worlds to sing in Somehow I felt bette r Another day I was on the telephone Information Please Information said the now
