Do you like to sit in front of the computer and play computer games hour after hour? Have you ever thought of what that may be doing to your health? More and more children are becoming overweight(肥胖的) and growing less creative because they spend too much time in front of the computer according to a survey.
Last week Child Protective Services(兒童保護(hù)組織)in America organized an activity. The aim of the activity was to encourage children to do some outdoor activities instead of playing computer games at home. Many American children spend about 1,000 hours a year playing computer games — more time than they spend in school. As a result, they are overweight. Some of them have very poor eyesight, and they can’t see clearly.
Everyone should pay attention to his health and try to keep healthy. The doctor says that the longer children play computer games, the more overweight they may become. And the junk food children eat while they’re playing computer games makes the weight problem more serious.
To keep fit, children need to take exercise regularly, play outside with friends, and explore the world around them. Can you spend two weeks without playing computer games? It might be difficult for computer lovers, but why not have a try?
小題1:Children may become______ if they play computer games all day.
A.much youngerB.much lighterC.less creativeD.less careful
小題2:American children may spend______ hours in school a year according to the passage.
A.less than 1,000B.more than 1,200C.a(chǎn)bout 1,500D.a(chǎn)bout 2,000
小題3:The underlined word “eyesight” means “______” in Chinese.
A.凝聚力B.想象力C.記憶力D.視力
小題4:What can we learn from the passage?
A.Playing computer games has caused some health problems.
B.Playing computer games can make children cleverer and more creative.
C.Child Protective Services in America organized an activity for parents.
D.Child Protective Services asked children to study at home and not to play outdoors.

" Some expressed my love, "Dad, I hope you will sleep well in your new bed. " Most notes were put downstairs where he would stay for several weeks when he was ill.

You want to run across the street to catch the bus? But wait! You’d better not. If a policeman sees you, you’ll have to pay a fine (罰款).
New traffic laws (交通法) say that if people cross the street when the light is red, they can be fined as much as 50 yuan.
Traffic accidents killed more than 104,000 people in China last year. Chinese cities have more cars than ever. Drivers and pedestrians (行人) must work together to make the streets safer.
The law has new rules for drivers and pedestrians. Drivers have to slow down when they are close to crosswalks. If people are in a crosswalk, cars must stop to let them pass.
There are rules for bus drivers, too. If bus drivers smoke, drink or make phone calls while driving, they can be fined. Buses that carry too many people are also against the law.
Pedestrians will have to walk more safely under the new law. They must cross streets at crosswalks. Also, they shouldn’t climb over the fences (柵欄) along streets.
Do you ride a bike to school? It’s not a good idea to carry classmates on the back. You could be fined 50 yuan. And stay in the bike lane (車道) when you’re riding. The big roads are for cars and buses.
Do you like to ride your uncle’s motorbike? When you put on your helmet (頭盔), ask him to put one on, too. People on motorbikes must wear helmets, the new law says. If they don’t, they’ll have to pay 200 yuan.
Do you ride in cars often? Don’t forget to put on your seat belt (安全帶), even if you’re going for a short taxi ride. It could save your life.
If you see a hit-and –run (肇事逃逸), tell the police. They may give you a reward (獎(jiǎng)賞). And don’t be afraid to help people to the hospital if they are hurt in an accident. Don’t worry about money. The new law says that doctors must take care of them even if they can’t pay right away.

Each nation has many good people who help to take care of others.For example,some high school and college students in the U.S.A. often spend many hours as volunteers in the hospitals,orphanages(孤兒院)or rest homes.They read books to the people in these places,or they just visit them and play games with them or listen to their problems.
Other young volunteers go and work in the homes of people who are sick or old.They paint,clean up or repair their houses,do their shopping or mow(割;修剪)their lawns.For boys who no longer have fathers,there is an organization called Big Brothers.College students and other men take these boys to baseball games or fishing trip and help them get to know things that boys usually learn from their fathers.
Each city has a number of clubs where boys and girls can go to play games.Some of these clubs show films or organize short trips to the mountains or some places of interest.Most of these clubs use a lot of high school and college students as volunteers because they are young enough to know the problems and needs of young boys and girls.
Volunteers believe that some of the happiest people in the world are those who help to bring happiness to others.

Newspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past.   小題1:  Most people read only the sports pages, the advice or the gossip(閑話,緋聞)columns, the comics, and perhaps the classified advertisements.
Most people don't take the time to read the real news.     小題2:  These techniques(技術(shù),手段)are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper. The first page attracts attention and encourages the reader to look through the rest of the paper.     小題3:    If the headline is horrible(恐懼的)enough or frightening enough or wild enough, perhaps they will go on to read the front page anymore. They may read the headlines, but that is all, then they turn to the sports page, or comics, or advertisements. It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper anymore.   小題4:  
More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper. What about you? Do you read news from a newspaper?  小題5:  Or do you care about news at all? Would you mind if there were no news?

America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real,yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two,perhaps a few letters for a while— then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance,even years later,they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand,because friendships between us develop more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings,extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.
Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes,share their holidays,and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.
Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives,they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes,we,as hosts,will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans,however,express their welcome usually at homes,but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes,the welcome will be full,warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.
For the Americans,it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants,except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!
小題1:Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?  
A.Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.
B.Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.  
C.Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.  
D.Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.
小題2: From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend,we will probably be ______.
A.warmly welcomed at the airport
B.offered a ride to his home
C.treated hospitably at his home
D.treated to dinner in a restaurant
小題3:The underlined words “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean ______.
A.strict with time   B.willing to spend time  
C.careful with timeD.serious with time
小題4:A suitable title for this passage would probably be “______”.
A.Friendships between Chinese
B.Friendships between Americans  
C.Americans’hospitality
D.Americans’and Chinese’s views of friendships
