Last Monday,
The younger generation (一代人), according to a new survey, can hardly remember the last time of climbing trees or flying kites, as they are kept indoors and short of outdoor experiences.
The survey of 1,000 people found that the current (现在的) generation of 15- to 34-year-olds have fewer memories (记忆) of 12 key countryside activities such as swimming in rivers or going fishing.
The research found that three quarters of the older generation remembered playing games or climbing trees, compared with two thirds of younger adults.
The 55+ generation also had more memories of collecting stones, visiting a farm or pond dipping. Altogether, two thirds of older people had more memories of playing outdoors compared to just over half of the younger generation.
The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) carried out the study at the start of the school term to stress the growing worry that children are not getting outdoors enough.
The study has found that 82 per cent of people think that schools should provide more outdoor education and most believe nature is still important to children today.
Dr. Mike Clarke, head of the RSPB, said children who are usually kept indoors are easier to get "nature deficit disorder". He said public money should be used to take children on day trips to nature and to build wildlife gardens, especially in poor areas.
"To many people, it would seem clear and unquestionable that an important part of childhood is exploring the world around you. Unfortunately, this is far from the fact and the children are having less time and fewer chances to get close to nature," he said.
"The RSPB has more than a 40-year history in getting children outdoors and is still continuing to play our role. We now need the government and the schools to realize that they should play the most important role in making it possible for all the children to experience, enjoy and benefit (受益) from the outdoor environment."
28.Compared with the current generation, the older generation had ________.
A. more homework and exercises when they were children
B. more memories of wonderful life in the countryside
C. fewer memories of taking part in outdoor activities
D. fewer chances of going on a visit to the big cities
29.The RSPB carried out the study in order to tell people to ________.
A. spend more time with their kids
B. care more about the kids' growth
C. let their kids get more outdoor activities
D. order the schools to provide outdoor education
30.According to the passage, "nature deficit disorder" often happens to ________.
A. children who often stay indoors
B. children who often go outdoors
C. all the younger generation
D. all the older generation
31.We can learn from Dr. Clarke's words in the last paragraph that ________.
A. all the children can’t get close to nature and aren’t healthy any longer
B. outdoor activities are the most important for the current generation
C. the RSPB is more important than the government and schools in getting kids outdoors
D. the RSPB plays an important role in getting kids outdoors all the time

First lady Michelle Obama turns 50 on Friday, Jan. 17, 2014.
Michelle Obama has spent the first half-century of her life breaking barriers and checking off a series of firsts. Now, as she reaches her milestone birthday Friday, the nation will be watching to see in what other areas she will leave her mark.
Five years after moving into the White House, and without a re-election campaign to worry about, she has more room to relax in her role and, political watchers say, possibly become more vocal(声音的)on political issues in the three years left in office.
So far, critics have complained about Michelle’s silence on issues where they expected to hear her voice:Last year, at the start of her husband’s second term, she disappointed advocates for tighter gun-control measures after she failed to push harder on the issue in response to the massacre(残杀) at Sandy Hook Elementary School in 1Newtown, Conn. She also disappointed some feminists(女权主义者)who wanted her to defend their causes instead of falling back on her self-described role as the nation’s “mom-in-chief.” Nor did she handle racial issues during her second term, as some had expected.
“The most important thing to remember is, whether you are black, white or Hispanic, you’re the first lady and the president of all the people in the United States. That’s a huge melting pot, so to reinforce(强化)that she’s African American over anything else would not be wise,” said Anita McBride, who directs programming and national conferences on the legacies(遗产) of America’s first ladies and their historical influence at American University.
Valerie Jarrett, a top white House adviser and a close friend of the Obamas, said the first lady doesn't want to “spread herself too thin.”
“She really wants to have a maximum impact and to do that in fewer areas,” Jarrett told the Associated Press. “That,” she said, “is better than trying to take on every single possible cause.”
But Robert Wasson, a Lynn University professor, said he expects Obama to “go a little harder at issues” over the next several years. “Second-term first ladies usually feel more at ease to speak more forcefully about issues close to their heart,” he said.
Myra Gutin, a Ryder University communications professor and frequent lecturer on first ladies, said she expects Obama to continue making both of them a priority in her remaining years in the White House, given their success. Michelle launched the “Let’s Move” campaign in 2010. It in particular has gained widespread support, ranging from the National Football League to the Sesame Street franchise(特许), which even gave permission to the produce industry to use its licensed characters for free on fruits and vegetables.
“There’s no such thing as a traditional first lady, not anymore in this technology-filled world. Is Mrs. Obama cutting edge? Is she an activist? No. As first ladies go, I think she’s been politically careful because she does not want there to be a major flare-up that would require her husband to use his political capital to clean up,” she said. “But she’s not exactly just sitting in the White House pouring tea and having receptions, either.”
63. Critics were disappointed with Michelle because ________.
A. she didn’t put gun-control measures into effect
B. she failed some feminists to stand out to be a career woman
C. she failed to voice her opinion on some issues
D. she didn’t solve some racial problems
64. According to the professors or advisers, which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. It’s not wise to reinforce Michelle is African American over anything else.
B. It’s better for Michelle to have a maximum impact than to take on every possible cause.
C. It’s expected for Michelle to go a little harder at issues.
D. It's a tradition for first ladies to stay out of political issues.
65. According to the text, the first lady really doesn’t want to________.
A. Try to do a lot of work at the same time B. Try to improve physical fitness
C. Move herself away from others D. Get very tired
66. In Paragraph 9. the campaign “Let’s Move” might be aiming to help people ______.
A. gain widespread support B. become less physically active
C. have access to healthier foods D. raise awareness about gun control

How can I fight laziness?
Lazy people will never amount to anything in life. However, laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind.
16 . Many people lack sleep constantly, since they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work. These people have little motivation once they arrive home. Laziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency to put off things. By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest, you can fight laziness throughout the day.
Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active. Some people treat their lives as if they were pushed from task to task. Others take a more protective approach, viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone. 17
Some people fight laziness by removing the temptations(诱惑) that surround them. A television in the living room may provide entertainment, but watching too much TV often contributes to laziness. Create a reward system for yourself, just as parents do for a child to promote responsibility. 18
19 Spouses(配偶) and children may all have different energy levels, but laziness can be spread if not dealt with immediately. To fight household laziness, lead by example. Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal. Others in the home may eventually follow your example and perform their own task. It is difficult to practice laziness when you are surrounded by motivated people.
20 enough exercise and a balanced diet can help you to develop a healthy lifestyle, thus enabling you to have more energy and help lift your spirits.
A. Knowing how to fight laziness is important.
B. Laziness sets in when you no longer feel in charge of your own life.
C. Complete a few tasks and reward yourself with what you enjoy, such as a good dinner or a film.
D. Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home.
E. Finally, taking exercise regularly can help you fight laziness.
F. With strong determination, you will be able to achieve your goal.
G. One way to fight laziness is to get enough sleep
Cooking food over a smoky fire is found everywhere in the world. It is often difficult to find wood for the fire. People who do not have wood must spend large amounts of money on cooking fuel. However, there is a much easier way to cook food using energy from the sun. Solar cookers, or ovens, have been used for centuries. A Swiss scientist made the first solar oven in 1767. Today, people are using solar cookers in many countries around the world. People use solar ovens to cook food and to heat drinking water to kill bacteria and other harmful organisms.
There are three kinds of solar ovens. The first is a box cooker. It is designed with a special wall that shines or reflects sunlight into the box. Heat gets trapped under a piece of glass or plastic covering the top of the cooker. A box oven is effective for slow cooking of large amounts of food.
The second kind of solar oven is a panel(嵌板式) cooker. It includes several flat walls, or panels, which directly reflect the sun’s light onto the food. The food is inside a separate container of plastic or glass that traps heat energy. People can build panel cookers quickly and with very few supplies. They do not cost much. In Kenya, for example, panel cookers are being manufactured for just two dollars.
The third kind of solar oven is a parabolic(抛物线的) cooker. It has rounded walls that aim sunlight directly into the bottom of the oven. Food cooks quickly in parabolic ovens. However, these cookers are hard to make. They must be re-aimed often to follow the sun. Parabolic cookers can also cause burns and eye injuries if they are not used correctly.
You can make solar ovens from boxes or heavy paper. They will not catch fire. Paper burns at 232 degrees Celsius. A solar cooker never gets that hot. Solar ovens cook food at low temperatures over long periods of time. This permits people to leave food to cook while they do other things.
To learn more about solar cooking, you can write to Solar Cookers International. The postal address is nineteen-nineteen Twenty-First Street, Sacramento, California, nine-five-eight-one-one, USA. Or you can visit the group’s Internet Web site. The address is www.solarcooking.org.
32.How long is the first solar cookers invented?
A. About 1767 years B. More than 300 years
C. More than 250 years D. Less than 250 years
33. In which of the following column could we find the passage?
A. Development Report B. Agricultural Report
C. Health Report D. Education Report
34. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. The first sun-cooker was made by a Swiss soldier
B. Parabolic cookers can be dangerous sometimes
C. Sun-cookers often get hotter than 232℃
D. It is more expensive to cook with a sun-cooker than on fire
35. Which of the following could be the best title of the passage?
A. Different Ways of Cooking B. The History of the Solar Cookers.
C. How to Choose Solar Cookers. D. Cooking Meals with the Sun for Fuel

Self-confidence, motivation, support and knowledge are the main factors determining if one succeeds or fails. Each of these factors influences our chances of success in a different way. 36 .
Lack of self-confidence is probably the most dreadful enemy of success. 37 Even the most capable person is sure to fail with such an attitude. If it is your case too, improving your self-confidence is a must .
Motivation is equally as important as self-confidence. 38 You may even not try to achieve the goal that lies before you. It is important to find out what is the best motivation for you. If you have to do something that does not motivate you, just treat yourself with a reward after you succeed. Of course, this reward should consist of something that will motivate you to pursue(追求) a success.
39 While it is not a must for succeeding in your goals, a lack of support can often lead to failure. It is also true that some people cannot succeed without a proper support from their surroundings. These people often lose their motivation or worse, their self-confidence. If you know such a person, supporting him or her is a right thing to do. Also surround yourself with the right people. You will see the results soon.
Pursuing realistic goals is also important for a success. You should always make sure that your goals are achievable. 40 Unrealistic goals usually lead to a fast failure and also make many people embarrassed.
A. As we know, many people try but do not succeed.
B. Consider all your knowledge and skills when setting up a goal.
C. Motivation is something in yourself that can push you forwards.
D. There are several main reasons why some people cannot succeed.
E. Supportive family and collective workplace are also very important.
F. Without it , you will not push yourself towards a better performance.
G. Thinking you are not good enough to achieve your goals is the same as deciding that you will not succeed.

At thirteen, I was diagnosed(诊断) with a kind of attention disorder. It made school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.
In my first literature class, Mrs.Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, “Mrs.Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.” She glanced down at me through her glasses, “You are no different from your classmates, young man.”
I tried, but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home.
In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots(点), which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.
Wasn’t I the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted” students? My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was no different from others; I just needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up?
I didn’t expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs.Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day—with an “A” on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words: “See what you can do when you keep trying?”
3. The author didn’t finish the reading in class because .
A. he wanted to take the task home. B. he was new to the class
C. he had an attention disorder D. he was tired of literature.
4. What was Mrs.Smith’s attitude to the author at the end of the story?
A. Angry. B. Impatient. C. Sympathetic. D. Encouraging.
5. The underlined phrase spilled out in Paragraph 5 probably means____.
A. put in B. crowded in C. cheated in D. broke in
6. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. A teacher can open up a new world to students. B. One can find his way out of difficulties with efforts.
C. The disabled should be treated with respect. D. Everyone needs a hand when faced with challenges.
______ no use _________ without taking action.
A. There’s; complaining B. There’s; being complained
C. It’s; complaining D. It’s; to complain
