　　I sat down to read under an old tree in the park. I felt my life was 16 , for my whole world was dark.

　　A young boy ran up to me, out of 17 . He stood right before me with his head down and said 18 , “Look what I found!” In his hand was a flower, and what a poor sight! The flower was dry and dead.

　　TRAVEL STUDY-- a new way to spend your holidays. Have you ever heard about it?

　　● TRAVEL

　　When you have a travel study, you can see Big Ben, Sydney Opera House, the Statue of Liberty and many other places... I dreamed of visiting all the cities with beautiful sights. During the travel study, you may go travel yourself, with your family or your friends.

　　At the same time when you travel, you are in a different culture every day. You can be served with different new foods and make new friends. You read all these from books in the past, but now it is real and you are a part of it. Besides, you may also learn other cultures from your new friends because they are from different countries.

　　●STUDY

　　Maybe you already have foreign teachers in your school to teach you English. But he or she will not stay to speak English with you all the time, right? During the travel study, you have to speak it every day and almost everywhere because you are in an English-speaking country!

　　It also gives you a chance to let you live alone and make you learn how to live. What should I do if I lose my way in a foreign country? How can I buy what I want with my poor English? You have to be clever and you decide them by yourself.

　　In a word, you can get a lot from the travel study.

　　26. To travelers, TRAVEL STUDY means_______.

　　A. culture B. travel plus study C. travel D. study

　　27. Travel can help you do a lot except ______.

　　A. see many places of interest B. try many kinds of food

　　Spending two or three hours playing outdoors each day can reduce the chance of becoming short-sighted, a research shows. It challenges the belief(信念) that short-sightedness is caused by computer use, watching TV or reading in weak light.

　　The Australian government researchers believe that the sunlight is good for people’s eyes. They compared the vision(视力) and habits of 100 seven-year-old children in Singapore and Australia. In all, 30% of the Singaporean children were short-sighted—this rate(比率) was ten times higher than Australian children.

　　Both groups spend a similar amount(数量) of time reading, watching television and playing computer games. However the Singaporean children spent an average (平均) of only half an hour a day outdoors—90 minutes less than the Australian children.

　　Professor Ian Morgan, from the Australian Research Council’s vision Centre, said, “Humans are naturally long-sighted, but when people begin to go to school and spend little or no time outdoors, the number of short-sighted people gets larger. We’re also seeing more and more short-sighted children in cities all around the world and the main reason may be that city children spend less time outdoors.

　　Daylight can be hundreds of times brighter than indoor light. But why does playing outside prevent us from becoming short-sighted? Scientists believe that natural light has a special chemical(化学物质) which stops the eyeball from growing out of shape and prevents people from becoming short-sighted.

　　So be outdoors. It doesn’t matter if that time is spent having a picnic or having sports.

　　31. How much time did the Australian children spend outdoors on average according to the research?

　　A. 30 minutes. B. 60 minutes. C. 90 minutes. D. 120 minutes.

　　32. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

　　A. If people spend less time outdoors they will certainly become short-sighted.

　　B. There are fewer short-sighted Singaporean Children than Australian children because

　　they have more knowledge of protecting their eyesight.

　　C. There will be fewer risks of getting short-sighted if people spend two or three hours a

　　day playing outside.

　　D. When people begin to go to school they will become long-sighted.

　　33. What is the fifth paragraph mainly about?

　　A. Why natural daylight has a special chemical.

　　B. Why daylight prevents people from becoming short-sighted.

　　C. Why daylight is much brighter than indoor light.

　　D. What the special chemical which can stop eyeballs from growing out of shape is.

　　C

　　How quickly can you count from one to ten? Do you use ten different words to do it? Can you do it in English, or do you have to use your first languages? Do you count on your fingers? Many people think that numbers and math are the same all over the world. But scientists have discovered that it is not true.

　　People in different parts of the world use different ways to count on their fingers. In the United States, people begin counting with their first fingers, which they extend or stick out. They then extend the rest of their fingers and finally the thumb (拇指) to count to five. Then they repeat this with the other hand to get to ten. In China, people count by using different finger positions. In this way, a Chinese person can easily count to ten on only one hand.

　　Besides ways of finger counting, scientists have found that cultures and languages are also different when it comes to numbers. Some languages have only a few words for numbers, and others have no words for numbers. A group of scientists studied aboriginal (土著的)people in Australia. These people don’t have hand movements to stand for numbers. They don’t even have word for numbers. However, they are still able to understand different ideas about numbers.

　　In a similar study, researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology discovered that people of the Piraha tribe (部落) in northwestern Brazil don’t have words for numbers such as “one” or “three”. They are not able to say “five trees” or “ten trees” but can say “some trees”, “more trees”, or “many trees”. Professor Edward Gibson said that most people believe that everyone knows how to count, “but here is a group that does not count. They could learn, but isn’t not useful in their culture, so they’ve never picked it up.”

　　Although all humans are able to understand quantities (数量), not all languages have numbers and not all people use counting. Number words in a certain language are a result of people needing numbers in their daily lives. Now we know that people have different ideas about numbers and math, too.

　　32. The writer begins with the four questions in order to______.

　　A. make a survey B. interest readers C. tell a story D. solve math problems

　　33. What do we learn from the difference in finger counting between the U.S. and China?

　　A. People from China count much faster than people from the U.S.

　　B. People from China need two hands to count from one to ten.

　　C. People of different cultures may use different ways of finger counting.

　　D. People of different cultures use the same way of finger counting.

　　34. Which of following is true about aboriginal Australians?

　　A. They have only a few words for numbers.

　　B. They have hand movements to stand for numbers.

　　C. They can only count to five on their fingers.

　　D. They can understand different ideas about numbers.

　　35. What is the main idea of the passage?

　　A. People from different cultures have different ideas about numbers and math.

　　B. Chinese people can count more easily on their fingers than Americans.

　　C. In some aboriginal culture, people don’t even know how to count.

　　D. Some languages don’t have number words because people don’t need numbers.

　　D

　　Stonehenge, a rock circle, is not only one of Britain’s most famous historical places but also one of its greatest mysteries. Every year it receives more than 750,000 visitors. People like to go to this place especially in June as they want to see the sun rising on the longest day of the year.

　　For many years, historians(历史学家) believed Stonehenge was a temple where ancient leaders tried to communicate with the gods. However, historian Paul Stoker thinks this can’t be true because Stonehenge was built so many centuries ago. “The leaders arrived in England much later,” he points out.

　　Another popular idea is that Stonehenge might be a kind of calendar. The large stones were put together in a certain way. On midsummer’s morning, the sun shines directly into the center of the stones. Other people believe the stones have a medical purpose. They think the stones can prevent illness and keep people healthy. “As you walk there, you can feel the energy from your feet move up your body,” said one visitor. No one is sure what Stonehenge was used for, but most agree that the position of the stones must be for a special purpose. Some think it might be a burial(埋葬) place or a place to honor ancestors(祖先). Others think it was built to celebrate a victory over an enemy.

　　Stonehenge was built slowly over a long period of time. Most historians believe it must be almost 5,000 years old. One of the greatest mysteries is how it was built because the stones are so big and heavy. In 2001, a group of English volunteers tried to build another Stonehenge, but they couldn’t. “We don’t really know who built Stonehenge,” says Paul Stoker. “And perhaps we might never know, but we do know they must have been hard-working — and great planners!”

　　36. Visitors like to go there in to enjoy on the longest day of the year.

　　A. July; sunrise B. June; sunrise C. June; sunset D. July; sunset
