Early in the morning, at noon, or in the evening in big cities and in the countryside, all over the United States, you can see Americans running — men and women, young and old. People run            — along the beaches of California,              Central Park in New York, down quiet streets in small towns or at the gym. Some people even run in             living rooms.
Running wasn’t so popular in the past. In the 1960s, runners were mostly athletes and healthy strong people. When people saw a runner, they used             ,“Hey, what’s the hurry for？”or they might say to             ,“Is he crazy？”At that time, women almost never ran. If they did, they might be laughed at. But today all these have            Men and women of all             enjoy running.
Doctors say many of the health problems in the United States             these bad habits: eating too much, smoking cigarettes, and taking             exercise. Doctors tell us,“Eat less, don’t smoke, and exercise more. ”Running is a good exercise             it helps build strong hearts and lungs. It also helps most people lose weight.

Do you know why so many animals do not stay in one place? Birds, fish and other animals move from one place to another place at a certain time. They move for different reasons: most of them move to find food more easily, but others move to get away from places that are too crowded.
When cold weather comes, many birds move to warmer places to find food. Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed. The most famous migration is probably the migration of fish, which is called “salmon”(鮭魚). This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water. There it spends its life. When it is old, it will return to its birthplace in fresh water. Then it gives birth and dies. In northern Europe, there is a kind of mouse. They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded. They move down to the low land. Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea.
Recently, scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobster(龍蝦). Every year, when the season of the bad weather arrives, the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean. Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go. So, sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another place, but at other times we don’t. Maybe living things just like to travel.

小題1:The reason for most of the animals to move is ________.
A．to get away from un-crowded placesB．to find their own parents
C．to want to kill themselvesD．to find food more easily
小題2:Where does young salmon(鮭魚) spend its life?
A．In fresh water.B．In salt water.
C．In mountain homes.D．In its birthplace.
小題3: When do the lobsters(龍蝦) begin to move another place?
A．When their homes become too crowded.
B．When the season of the bad weather arrives.
C．When they want to give birth.
D．When their food is eaten up.
小題4: The underlined word migration in the passage means ________.
A．遷徙B．習(xí)性
C．運(yùn)動(dòng)D．尋覓

Usually, students are not encouraged to run or jump around in the corridor (走廊). However,students in a British grammar school really enjoy running on the corridor tiles (瓷磚) and their teachers even encourage them to do that.
Why? It is because the corridor was built with special kinetic (動(dòng)能的) tiles. When students jump on the tiles, electricity will be generated ( 產(chǎn)生). After one year, the electricity generated from the tiles can fully charge 853 mobile phones or power(供電) an electric car to drive seven miles. It’s amazing, isn’t it?
The corridor tiles are really a brilliant invention. Students can not only play on the corridor,but also help power the lights in their school corridors and other devices ( 設(shè)備) in their classrooms. Besides, this is a good way to teach students to be creative. They will be inspired to be scientists, inventors and engineers in the future to find clean energy for all humans.
The inventor of the magic corridor tiles is Laurence Kemball-Cook. He was once a student in this school. Now, he is CEO of his own company. The corridor tiles are not Laurence’s only invention. He has also invented a special dance floor, which can be used at music festivals. It allows dancers to charge their mobile phones while they are dancing on the dance floor.
小題1:Why do the students in the passage enjoy running on the corridor tiles?
A. Because the corridor tiles are expensive.
B. Because the teachers ask them to do that.
C. Because the corridor was built with special tiles.
小題2:After one year, the electricity generated from the tiles can provide enough energy for _______.
A. over 800 mobile phones
B. all the lights of the school
C. an electric car to drive70 miles
小題3:The underlined word “inspired” most probably means “ _________”.
A. encouraged
B. forced
C. trained
小題4:What else has Laurence invented besides the corridor tiles from the passage?
A. A mobile phone.
B. A music player.
C. A special dance floor.

Butterflies are common all over the world，but butterflies in hotter countries are usually bigger and more brightly colored than those in coo1er countries，and there are more different kinds．
Usually the male(雄性的)butterflies are more brightly colored than the females．The females have bigger and heavier bodies since they carry the eggs．The bright colors of the males help to attract the females，and the duller(較暗淡的)colors of the females make them less likely(可能的)to be caught by enemies before they have laid their eggs．

(C)The earth is not only, but also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you. because nearly 70% of the earth’s surface（表面）is covered with water. But about 97% of that is sea water, or salt water. Man can only use the other 3%—the fresh water from rivers, lakes, and other sources. And we can’t even use all of that, because some of it is in the form of icebergs and glaciers（冰川）. Even worse, some of it has been polluted.
However, as things stand today, the fresh water is still enough for us. But our need for water is becoming larger and larger quickly—almost day by day. We should take steps to do with this problem now and in this way we can get away from a serious world-wide water shortage later on.
We all have to learn how to stop wasting our valuable water, one of the first step is to develop ways of reusing it. Today in most large cities, water is used only once and then sent out into a sewer system(下水道), from there it returns to sea or runs into underground (地下)places.
But even if every large city reused its water, we still would not have enough. All we’d have to do to make use of sea water in the world is to remove the salt.
小題1: The earth is thirsty for water because_______ .
A．man has not enough food to eat.
B．we haven’t had enough fresh water
C．only 70% of the earth’s surface is covered with water.
D．more water is sent into the sewer system
小題2:The underlined word “valuable ” means _______.         .
A．much and saltB．fresh and enough
C．dear and usefulD．clean and helpful
小題3: What can we do if we want to have enough fresh water?
(a) make good use of the sea water.
(b) carry salt water into lakes and rivers.
(c) try to save the fresh water as much as possible
(d) do our best to use the water again.
(e) drink and use all the water on the earth’s surface
A．(c)and(e)B．(a) and (b)
C．(a), (c)and(d)D．(b) , (d) and(e)
小題4: The best but the most difficult way to solve the water problem of the world is to ___
A．remove the salt from the sea water
B．make the water in the cities clean.
C．take the water from underground
D．make the need for the water smaller.
小題5: What is the best title for this passage?

After shaking the east coast of Honshu, Japan on March 11, the earthquake has caused more than 10, 000 deaths and 17, 000 people missing. In downtown of Tokyo, buildings shook and frightened citizen blocked out all the streets and roads. The tsunami（颶風(fēng)）afterwards, which caused more deaths and injury, made Japanese people unable to cheer up. “Now that our neighbors are in trouble,” the Foreign Ministry spokesman said, “we are in our turn to give a hand. Our rescue team has already got there in time to help.” The terrible earthquake also caused a big fire breaking out at the Fukushima nuclear power plant（福島核電站）, leading to a radiation leaking（泄漏）.
50 nuclear workers, facing radiation and fire, became the only people remaining at the Fukushima nuclear power plant on Tuesday — and perhaps Japan’s last chance of preventing a broader nuclear danger. They have volunteered to put seawater on dangerous nuclear fuel（核燃料）to cool it down, to prevent thousands of tons of radioactive dust high into the air. Some scientists suggest that the leaking is harmful to human being and may influence human body through rain or snow from the sky in the future.
