These days shared bikes are becoming the center of attention in my WeChat friend circle. Many of my friends are sharing photos of themselves riding bikes, especially during the weekend in natural parks, and I can see people logging in (登录) and out of shared bike apps.
I’m very happy that there are shared bikes on the road. They have saved us a lot of time during special situations, and on beautiful, clear days, people enjoy ri ding them outside the city.
I tried shared bikes last week, and I didn’t like them very much. I think the first shared bikes without baskets are designed for athletes. They are very hard to ride, and the seats are not comfortable. It makes me wonder whether people really like riding shared bikes or are just saying this to agree with others.
A friend secretly told me she tried the bikes to fit in. She doesn’t like bikes and finds Beijing’s roads too hard for bike riding. But recently, the only way to hang out with her friends is riding out of town together. To join in social activities, she had to pick up bike riding again.
Another friend admitted that he started talking about and sharing photos on shared bikes in order just to appear modern and fashionable to friends. He started paying attention when shared bikes first came into use.
These views will gi ve me something new to think about when I ride these bikes again.
50. What does the writer himself think of shared bikes?
A. They are very difficult to ride. B. Their seats are comfortable.
C. Athletes like shared bikes. D. They can save us a lot of money.
51. In the passage the underlined word “admitted” may mean .

A. It can save time to use shared bikes at special time.
B. Some people only appear to be interested in shared bikes.
C. The writer likes the bikes without baskets because they are for athletes.
D. Some people like to share photos riding bikes because they want to agree with others.

One day the King invited me to watch the regular entertainments, which are greatly enjoyed by him，his family，and his lords and ladies. I was most interested in the rope-dancing. A very thin rope is fixed thirty centimetres above the ground. People who want to become the King's most important officials jump and dance on this rope, and whoever jumps highest without falling gets the best job. Sometimes the King orders his lords to dance on the rope, to show that they can still do it. There are occasional(happening sometimes but not often)deaths as a result. It seems a strange way of choosing officials.
There was another interesting entertainment. The King holds a stick in front of him, and sometimes moves it up and down. One by one, people come up to him and jump over the stick or crawl under it. They go on jumping and crawling as the King moves the stick. The winner is the one who jumps and crawls for the longest time, and he receives a blue ribbon to wear round his waist. The second best receives a red ribbon, and the third best gets a green one. Many of the Lilliput lords wear their ribbons proudly at all times. I had certainly never seen entertainment like this in any of the countries I had visited before. ------ Gulliver in Lilliput
53. What do you think of the sport rope-dancing?
A. interesting B. funny C. dangerous D. exciting

He asked her how much her bananas cost. She said $8 per kilogram. He tried to bargain. “The store where I usually buy bananas only asks $5
per kg. Can you sell them to me the same price?” He asked. The old lady was reluctant(不情愿的) but finally agreed to sell them for $6 per kg. However, Mr. Phillips wasn’t satisfied and decided to buy them at the
fruit store instead.

him, “Sir, I can’t offer you that price anymore.”
Mr. Phillips told her, “Don’t worry about it. I will pay you $10 per kg! Please give me two kilo.” The old lady was happy and said, “I can’t take
$10 but I will take $7 per kg. Thank you for your kindness.”

When I get home from a long day of work, one of the first things I do is take off my shoes and put on a pair of soft, comfortable slippers(拖鞋). However, this is a habit that I’ve only developed since moving to China.
In the United States, people rarely wear slippers around the house. Most of the time, we walk around our homes in socks or even barefoot(光 脚). But here in China, many homes have a shoe rack near the front door with slippers on it for both family members and guests. What is the
reason for this culture difference?
Well, one thing I’ve seen is that Chinese homes typically have tile(瓷 砖) or wood floors. This kind of floors can be quite cold to walk on, especially during the winter. In the US, most homes have carpet(地毯) on the floor, meaning they’re warmer and more comfortable to walk on if you are not wearing slippers.
But there’s a much better reason—keeping your feet clean. If you’ve ever walked down the street in a big Chinese city, you have surely noticed that there’s a lot of dust, dirt and other stuff on the sidewalks. Sometimes, that dirt and dust can get into your home. But wearing slippers can help you keep your feet clean.
And, of course, slippers are just fun to wear. My favorite slippers have cute cartoon faces on them. What do your slippers look like?
36. When did the writer start the habit of wearing slippers?.
A. After a long day of work. B. Before moving to China.
C. After moving to China. D. While living in the US.
37. What does the underlined word “rarely” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. often B. hardly C. usually D. always
38. According to the writer, why do Chinese people wear slippers?
a. To walk on cold floors. b. To keep their feet clean.
c. To make people look good. d. To avoid(避免) using carpet.
A. a, b B. b, c C. a, c D. b, d
39. According to the writer, what is the possible reason that American people do not wear slippers?
A. There are no slippers in the US.
B. Wearing slippers isn’t comfortable.
C. American people don’t wear slippers to keep clean.
D. Most homes in the US have a carpet.
40. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Why the writer wears slippers after work.
B. Why people in China and the US feel differently about wearing slippers.
C. Why people in the US don’t wear slippers at home.
D. Why wearing slippers can keep both feet and houses clean.

Are you happy now? Do you know how to be happy? Do you have any problems in your life? If so, you will find Being a Happy Teenager written by an Australian writer Andrew Matthews.
In his book, Matthews tells us how to have a happy life and answers the questions of teenagers. There are many subjects, such as parents and
friends, and the book says we should stop being angry and should forgive(宽恕). The book tells us some useful ways, such as how to understand better what you learned. Many teenagers think that happiness comes from a great exam result or praise(表扬) from other people. But you can still be happy when there are no such “good” things.
Success comes from a good attitude(态度). If you learn from problems,
you will have success in the future. Some school students have problems,
such as being too tall or too short. But Matthews tells us that happiness comes from thinking in a positive(积极的) way. If you are tall, you can get a better view(视线) when you see a film; if you are short, your clothes
and shoes take less room in your bedroom! This is Matthew’s most important lesson: “You choose to be happy!”
61. What’s the name of the book written by Andrew Matthews?
62. What does Matthews tell us in his book?

It’s easier to go down a hill than to climb up a hill, so it is easier to have bad habits than to have good ones.

Many of the teenagers don’t think our parents can 34 us. However, they have gone 35 situations that are even harder than those we’re experiencing today. So why not 36 them and learn from them? If there are many situations when we don’t want to ask our parents for 37 , we can turn to our friends. It’s also 38 to be able to receive their ideas.

In northern China during spring, big sandstorms often make trouble for people. When the sky is dark with sand, buses and cars all move much more slowly. Sometimes, people can’t even see for 20 metres.
Sandstorms usually happen in spring. Big sandstorms happened in more than 10 provinces in northern China last year. More than 70 million people have had problems in those places because of the sandstorms.
People in southern China don’t have to worry about this kind of bad weather. Most of the sand comes from the north of China. In northern China, lots of places have few trees and don’t get much rain. People there have been cutting down too many trees. When there aren’t many trees, the ground can’t keep enough water. Over the years, the ground dries up and turns to sand. When spring comes and the ice melts (融化), the ground becomes looser (更松散的). Strong winds take the loose sand into the sky.
Sandstorms are bad for people’s health. If people take in too much sand, they could cough or have asthma (哮喘).
Sandstorms also give farmers lots of problems. Sometimes their sheep get lost in the storms and never get back home. The winds also tear down farmers’ houses.
What can you do to stop sandstorms? Here’s an idea: Ask your parents to help you plant some trees this spring.
If you see people cutting down too many trees, tell them about the dangers of sandstorms, and ask your government to stop them from cutting.

And you are worried about your study and exam. I can imagine you must be under great pressure. As your friend, I’d like to give you some advice.
First, Get understandings and support from your parents. You’d better communicate with your parents properly and tell your problems to them. Second, make a good learning plan for yourself so that you can learn better and improve faster. Last, try to relax yourself. For example, do some exercise and listen to soft music before going to bed.
I hope my advice can help you and make you feel better.
