Hannay was nervous．His enemies were searching for him．All around him were grassy hills without trees．He had nowhere to hide．How could he escape？
Hannay walked along the country for a long time．Then he saw a road worker，who was working alone，fixing the road．Hannay could see the road worker was not feeling well．Hannay came up to him and said "How are you？"
"My head hurts，"the worker said，"I can't do it．I want to go home to bed．My daughter got married yesterday，and I drank a lot of wine with my friends．That's the problem!"
Hannay agreed that he should be home in bed．
"Yes，and I would be，"he replied，"but yesterday I received a message saying that the new surveyor was coming to look at my work．If he comes and finds me away，I'll be in trouble．"

I'm not the kind of mother who often brushes her daughter's hair， and my daughter has never liked sitting quietly long enough for me to do it．
But today， I took a chair outside and let my daughter Kitty sit on it． She was sitting high with her eyes closed， skin still wet from the shower and her messy hair behind her back． I realized she was taking in every touch from my hands． Today we would send Kitty away for a week of a summer camp． This was all my idea． She's nearly 12， and I notice that I'm with my child nearly 24hours a day． Living on the farm without neighbours， Kitty has become increasingly dependent（依赖的 ） on me．

Now students'English handwriting gets worse and worse．That makes their teachers feel worried．Is your English handwriting beautiful？If not，here are four steps that really work!
◆Use paper that has lines
Using paper that has lines can keep you writing straight when you write English words or sentences．（52） ．Be sure to fill the lined space completely．And make sure those capital letters（大写字母） are written properly．
◆Slow down
If your writing is hard to read，try slowing down a little．（53） If you write too fast，it's hard for you to stop where you should，and even worse，you may make more mistakes．
◆（54）
When you hold your pencil the correct way，writing is much easier．Some kids press（按，压） down really hard when they write．That makes the handwriting not nice．Try to relax yourself and don't hold the pencil so hard．Let your writing appear nice and clean．If you do so，people will guess you are a student with a good habit．
◆Draw more pictures
Drawing can improve your handwriting．You need to use the skills to control your pencil better when you are drawing pictures．Even though you have no chance to draw at school，you can practice by yourself at home．
（55） Imagine you are a world﹣famous movie star or a well﹣known sports player，what do you do went fans run up to you？Give them your autographs （亲笔签名），of course!
根据短文内容，从下列选项中选出能填入文中空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选项．

"I have an idea，"her mother said．"Let's write your daddy a letter．We can tie the letter to a balloon and send it up to heaven（天堂）．What should we write？"
Desiree told her mother to write，"Happy Birthday，Daddy．I love you and miss you．Please write me on my birthday in January．"

Desiree released the balloon in California．The wind caught the balloon and carried it east．Four days later，it came down 3，000 miles away，near a lake in eastern Canada．The name of the lake was Mermaid Lake．
Wade MacKinnon，a Canadian man，was hunting ducks at Mermaid Lake when he found Desiree's balloon and letter．He took them home to his wife．She decided to send Desiree a birthday present．She also wrote her a letter．The letter said：
Dear Desiree，
Happy Birthday from your daddy．I guess you wonder who we are．Well，my husband，Wode，went duck hunting，and guess what he found？A mermaid balloon that you sent your daddy．There are no stores in heaven，so your daddy wanted someone to do his shopping for him．I think he picked us because we live in a town called Mermaid．I know your daddy loves you very much and will always watch over you．
Lots of love，
The MacKinnons

Now，whenever Desiree wants to talk about her father，she calls the MacKinnons．After she talks to them，she feels better．
People often say，"What a coincidence（巧合）﹣the mermaid balloon landed at Mermaid Lake!"Desiree's mother is not sure it was just a coincidence．She says，"I think that somehow my husband picked the MacKinnons．It was his way to send his love to Desiree．Desiree understands now that her father is with her always．"

The Building That Moves
Everyone knows that buildings don't move．They can't change the way they look．However，architect（建筑师）David Fisher wants to change that．
Fisher has an amazing idea．He wants to make 80﹣story buildings that change shape．Each floor will move around slowly．The floors will move at different speeds．Because of this，the shape of the building is always changing．"These buildings will never look the same，"says Fisher．
His idea is an interesting one．However，Fisher doesn't stop there．He also wants the building to be"green"．The building will make its own energy．In most buildings，only the top floor has a roof（屋顶）．In Fisher's building，each floor will have its own roof．The roofs each have solar panels（太阳能板）．This means a lot more solar energy．Also，machines between each floor of the building will catch the wind．They will turn the wind into energy．
Fisher's ideas sound impossible．However，that's what people also said before humans traveled into space!
16．The passage is mainly talking about ．
A．buildings for the future
B．the life of an architect
C．how green buildings work
17．The underlined word"80﹣story"means the building has 80 ．
A．shapes
B．floors
C．different speeds
18．Fisher's building can make its own energy because the building ．
A．is tall and always moving
B．is tall and has many solar panels
C．is always moving and has many solar panels
19．The Fisher's building will NOT get energy from ．
A．the sun
B．the water
C．the wind
20．Why does the writer say"that's what people also said before humans traveled into space"？ _
A．To show why Fisher's building will never work．
B．To show why Fisher's building is like a spaceship．
C．To show that unusual ideas can sometimes work．
Some days，don't you think，"Wouldn't it be nice if the laundry would just do itself？"Self﹣cleaning clothes may sound crazy．But Australian researchers have found a way to make something like this possible!
A team at RMIT University in Melbourne，Australia，found a way to put special nanostructures （纳米结构） into clothing，which can then clean the clothes．When sunlight hits the nanostructures，they break down the dirt and stains （污渍） that don't belong on your clothes．
The nanostructures don't break down the actual clothing because cotton and the other clothing materials are too strong to be broken down．According to CNN，the researchers cover the clothing in a solution made of silver and copper （铜） nanostructures．All it takes is 40minutes of sunlight and your clothes will look as good as new．
So if you spill on yourself during lunch，you can step outside for a walk，and it will be clean by the time you go inside．It not only makes your life easier，but it can also be good for the environment．
According to the US Department of Energy，the average load of laundry uses about 25gallons （about 94liters） of water．Water is a very important resource，so using less of it to wash clothes is better for the environment．But one of the scientists at RMIT University knows more needs to be done．
"There's more work to do before we can start throwing out our washing machines，"said Dr Rajesh Ramanathan，"but this is a strong foundation （基础）．"
So what's the next step？Ramanathan wants to either start selling the solution by itself or convincing （说服） clothing makers to treat the clothing with the solution while clothes are being made．
57．How do the clothing with the nanostructures get cleaned？
A．Cotton clothes wash easily
B．This kind of clothing washes it by itself．
C．The dirt and stains are broken down in the sunlight．
D．Silver and copper help to get off the dirt in the dark．
58．What do Paragraphs 4﹣5talk about？
A．What advantages the self﹣cleaning clothes have．
B．How the self﹣cleaning clothes work．
C．How the self﹣cleaning clothes are made．
D．What helps the self﹣cleaning clothes work．
59．What does the underlined word"solution"in the last paragraph mean？
A．Machines
B．Clothes．
C．Silver．
D．Design．
60．What can we learn from the passage？
A．Silver and copper sell well．
B．The solution is not put into practice．
C．Clothing makes certainly like the solution．
D．We don't need washing machines any more．

These days so many things are going digital，and books are too．People can buy e﹣books or cheap books online．This means that some bookstores have a hard time staying open．This isn't a new problem，but things are finally starting to turn around．
Bookstore sales in the US went up 2.5percent from 2014to 2015，according to the US Census Bureau．They have found success bu trying new things like holding events，adding a coffee shop and food and creating a fun experience for book lovers．"That's what small bookstores have to offer，"Nicole Sullivan，owner if Denver's BookBar，told the Denver Post，"a more personalized（个性化的）experience and a sense of community．"
Also，bookstores are trying to bring in new shoppers in cool ways．The Shakespeare and Co．bookstore in New York is adding the Espresso Book Machine，which can print any book you want in five minutes at the store．This special machine can help people search for books easily．

While bookstores still face difficulties，it seems there are ways for them to succeed．
