I'm in trouble. Last week，we had a football match，and we lost.We played well，but one teammate didn't do his best，I think.It was like he wasn't even on the court!Disappointed by his behaviour，I said all this to my best friend.But he told everyone else what I'd said.I'm really angry with my friend- what should I say to him？And should I say anything at all to my teammate？ |

Reply There is an old American saying， "Loose lips sink ships. "This means that if you speak too much about something，especially to people who you don't know so well，it'll cause all kinds of trouble.Maybe now you're in this situation.Forget all these unhappy things. Like 13 |

Reply Perhaps most importantly，think about your own behaviour.When filled with anger，you would say whatever comes to your mind.You might hurt others.Take a deep breath，calm down，and always remember：think first，speak later. Like 11 |

Reply In my view（观点），you should do what your parents ask.They're much older than you and you should respect them.It's their house you live in and their money you spend! Like 10 |

Reply Here's what you need to do.First，apologise to your teammate.Have a chat with him，and tell him directly and honestly that you were talking without thinking.Then tell your friend you're angry with him for repeating what you said and making the situation worse，but you hope your friendship will move on.

Homework should be done as soon as you get home from school. If you have after-school activities, the homework should be done first. At the same time, it is fine to allow for a snack break and also to allow for stretching(拉伸的)breaks.
Also, you should remember that it is your duty to do your homework. Next time, when you want to depend on Mom and Dad for help, please try to find the answer yourself, because you will learn much, much more that way.
When you have a question, especially something about a science or math, don't always turn to your teacher! It is a good idea to try to find the answer yourself. If this doesn't work, you can also look at the materials in the back of the book. They may guide you to the pages you should look at to help you understand the problem.
Finally, while doing homework, don't think about or do other things. Keep working. Setting a time limit(限制) often helps with this. Different ages decide different amounts of time. 10-15 minutes is good for a child that's aged 6-8. A time of 20-30 minutes is about right for a child aged 9-12. Kids can keep studying for 30-45 minutes from the ages of 13 to 15. This, of course, depends on your abilities to pay attention and stay on tasks.In the first paragraph, the writer mainly tells us that ______.
| A．doing homework is the first thing you should do at home |
| B．after-school activities can't affect doing homework |
| C．parents can help kids with their homework at night |
| D．kids need a good rest after school |
In the third paragraph, the writer wants to tell us that ______.
| A．students should ask the teacher more questions |
| B．thinking over the questions before asking others is important |
| C．problems can't be solved without a teacher's help |
| D．students shouldn't always look at the materials in the back of the book |
The passage mainly tells children ______.
| A．not to look away while doing homework |
| B．to do homework by themselves |
| C．not to turn to teachers when doing homework |
| D．to do their homework quickly and in the right way' |

Many people would like to watch sport matches. First, you need to know about audience manners.
Most sporting arenas(竞技场) have rules for audience written on the back of the tickets. Read your ticket carefully before you arrive. Try to reach your seat half an hour before the start of the event and don’t leave when a game is in progress. When you leave, remember to take away your soft drink bottle and other rubbish.
During exciting games, try to control yourself. Don’t criticize(批评)the performance of players and coaches. Be careful with your words, since some may cause anger among other people in the audience
Applause（鼓掌）is a special form of body language you can use to communicate with players, but you should do it properly. When players first appear, clap your hands together to welcome them, but don’t go on for too long. After an excellent performance, applaud warmly. If someone fails, your applause will help encourage them.
Applause is not welcome, however, while players need to keep their concentration. Various sports have various rules for the audience.
Enjoy artistic gymnastics silently. But lots of cheering can really help basketball and football players. Snooker and table tennis courtside behavior includes a ban on flash photography. Mobile phones are not allowed in shooting centers.
To be good audience, you should spend time learning the specific(明确的) rules and the culture of each event.What shouldn’t you do after you watch a game?
___________________________________________Applause is always welcome, isn’t it?
___________________________________________ How many events are mentioned in the passage?
___________________________________________What’s the best title of the passage?
___________________________________________Translate the underlined part into Chinese.

Children who spend more time reading with their parents have a greater chance of becoming better readers than those who don’t. With the help from their parents, children can learn techniques to improve their reading skills.
“A lot of parents think after their child learns to read, they should stop reading to them,” Donna George said. “They are sadly mistaken.”
George offers her services to parents at the Title I Learning Centers. She said reading aloud to children may be the most valuable thing parents can do. “It is better for children to hear things at a higher level than where they are,” George said. “Parents are their child’s first teacher.” Parents help their children build listening, phonics, comprehension and vocabulary skills when they read aloud to them.
Before parents can identify reading problems, they should escape the enemy
—television and limit the time their children spend watching television. George suggested not allowing kids to have a TV in their bedrooms, setting a schedule of when kids can watch or keeping a list of how many programs children watch. Louise Joines said while her 14-year-old daughter and 10-year-old son enjoy reading, the television sometimes becomes a distraction. So she tries to build the situation by suggesting books the entire family will enjoy reading together, like the Harry Potter series.
Parents who do not read themselves should not count on their children being interested in it. If parents would read to their children at least 15 minutes every day, children would not have so many problems in school. It is the parents’ job to help build that desire in their children, and of course to know what kind of books to read is also important.According to George, reading aloud to children_______________.
| A．helps them correct mistakes |
| B．is helpful to their reading |
| C．is parents’ first duty to their children |
| D．can get children out of television’s attraction |
The underlined word (in Paragraph 4 ) means something that_________

paragraph?
| A．Parents choose reading materials for their children. |
| B．Advice is given to control their children. |
| C．What TV programs children can watch during reading. |

.British people are famous for drinking tea. But brother and sister, Sarah and Bobby Green, became young millionaires when they opened a chain of American-style coffee shops in the UK.

The centerpiece of curling(冰壶)is the curling stone. Kays of Scotland has been making curling stones since 1851, when William Kay and his sons Andrew and Thomas set up a workshop in Mauchline, Ayrshire, in southwest Scotland. Kays is still owned by the relatives of the founder, and today it is the only curling stone maker left in Scotland.
Used in a highly competitive sport, the curling stones are made to exact standards. First, stones are sliced and then into round “cheeses”. Finally, the cheeses are shaped and polished into curling stones in a series of steps.
Each stone must weigh 44 pounds. Each must have a maximum diameter (直径) of 36 inches. Polishing is done by hand on a wheel using water, diamond-talcum power, and felt. Finishing the stone’s “running edge” is done entirely by hand with a special kind of paper and a digital measure and magnifying glass (放大镜). Lastly, a handle(把手) is fitted into holes on the top of the stone. Stones are computer-matched into pairs. Sixteen stones----8 pairs----are needed for a game, and since curling game field usually have 6 lanes, each game field needs 96 matched stones!
Kays is a small company, employing less than ten skilled workers. Master craftsman and co-owner James Wyllie is skilled at all phases of curling stone making and is also an enthusiastic curler, as well as active member of Mauchline’s Burns Club, which meets regularly to honor well-known Mauchline residents.What is true about Kays?
| A．It is a family business. |
| B．It’s a brand(牌子) of curling stones. |
| C．It’s a place in Scotland. |
| D．It’s the name of a curling stone dealer(业者). |
How many curling stones are needed for two games happening at the same time?
| A．8 | B．16 | C．32 | D．96 |
What does the underlined word “sliced” mean in Chinese in the second paragraph?
| A．切割 | B．镶嵌 | C．移开 | D．固定 |

| B．The weight of each curling stone must be 44 pounds. |
| C．We use a special machine to polish the curling stone. |
