If you had the chance to leave the life you have now, what would you do
Students from Fair-grounds Middle School, New Hampshire, US, chose to lead a special life for a week. They left the city and lived a different life by working on a farm. They handed over their cell phones and lived like any farmer’s children. And they enjoyed it!
“I didn’t know what would happen when we got there,” said Tyler Swift, 14, “but there were so many fun things. So much hard work, too. It was a challenge.”
“Getting up at 6 every morning, the students milked cows, spread hay(放置草料), and washed hundreds of sticky buckets(黏黏的桶). The hardest part was cleaning up piles of poop(成堆的排泄物) in the animal houses. It smelled bad, but it was lots of fun!
None of the students said no to the work. “With the farmers’ help, they did the work better and better. And they learned a lot more than just farming work.” said Rick Brown, a science teacher at Fair-grounds.
“You get to know who can do what and learn to work with different people. The children all showed great team work.” said Nick Quadros.
( )54. The children did lots of things EXCEPT(除了) ___________.
A. feeding cows B. milking cows
C. cleaning the animal houses D. looking after sick cows
( )55. What does the underlined word “challenge” mean in Chinese
A. 比赛 B. 厌烦 C. 怀疑 D. 挑战
( )56. Which of the following is NOT true
A. All of the students were willing to do the work. B. The children got some help from the farmers.
C. The children learnt just about farming work. D. The children worked well in teams.
( )57. What is the best title of the article

An old man was fishing on the bank of a river. A child came to see him fishing. The old man was really good at fishing and it didn't take long for him to catch a full basket of fish. The old man saw that the child was very cute, and he wanted to give her a whole basket of fish. But the child shook her head. The old man was surprised and asked, "Why don't you want the fish " The child replied, “I want the fishing rod (竿) in your hands.” The old man asked, “Why do you want the rod ”
“It doesn't take long to eat all the fish in a basket. But if I have the fishing rod, I can go fishing by myself and I won't be afraid of not having any more fish to eat.”
I think you will certainly say that the child is very smart. Wrong! If she doesn't know how to fish, she cannot have fish to eat, even though she has the fishing rod. It's useless to only have a fishing rod. Fishing skills are the most important, not the fishing rod.
Too many people think that if they have a “fishing rod” in their life, they will no longer fear the wind and rain. They are just like the child, who thought that if she had a fishing rod, she would have fish to eat.
( )58. Why did the child refuse(拒绝) the fish the old man gave her
A. Because she didn’t like fish. B. Because she wanted his fishing rod
C. Because the old man had few fish. D. Because she wanted to learn fishing skills
( )59. The writer thought the child was _______ after she explained why she didn’t want the fish.
A. smart B. hardworking C. silly(傻的) D. creative(有创造力的)
( )60. The article mainly tells us _________
A. if you have a “fishing rod” in your life, you won’t be afraid of anything.
B. if you have a fishing rod, you’ll have a lot of fish to eat
C. “fishing skills” are more important than “the fishing rod” in life.
D. “the fishing rod” is more important than the fish that people catch
( )61. What is the best title for the article
A. The Fishing Rod B. The Fishing Man C. The Fishing Girl D. The fishing Experience
D
In our busy society where food is readily available (可得到的) from delivery services (递送) and fast food restaurants, almost one in three American adults is now considered to be fat.
Childhood obesity（肥胖）is also at an all-time high.
Obesity means being very overweight. If you are obese, you have too much body-fat. Doctors define (定义) obesity as having a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher, and overweight as having a BMI of 25 to 30.
If you eat more food than your body can use, this will make you put on weight. Food that your body does not need as energy will be stored as fat by your body.
The following are the major factors (因素) that increase the risk of obesity.
What you eat plays a major role in weight gain. Eating a lot of fattening foods such as hamburgers, sweet drinks, ice creams and other sweet and fatty foods can increase risk of becoming obese.
If you do not do enough exercise, you will put on weight as the food you ea: is not being used to make energy for physical activities.
The chances of your obese are greater if your parents are obese.
There are many psychological (心理的) factors that cause people to eat too much. People who are stressed, unhappy or bored will often eat to make themselves feel better. This is known as comfort eating.
Aging is another factor, as you will be less active when you get older. The amount muscle (肌肉) in your body usually decreases (减少) as you get older and this causes the metabolism (新陈代谢) to slow down. As a result of these changes, you need to eat less, and if you do not eat less as you grow older, you will put on weight.
Obesity can cause many health disorders such as high blood pressure, diabetes (糖尿病), heart problems, cancer and many other serious medical conditions.
( )62. What causes older people to become obese

( )64. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 tells us
A. Obesity does no harm to health. B. All the American children are obese.
C. There are more obese children in the USA. D. There are more obese children than before.
( )65. What is the next paragraph of this article most probably about

Oct. 16 is World Food Day. The UN started the day in 1979. It reminds(提醒) people not to waste food and fight hunger.
A number of people in the world still don’t have enough food to eat. The food shortage(短缺) is a big problem all over the world. Now, there are more than 1000 million hungry people in the world according to the UN. Many children go to sleep hungry, and 15 million of them die of hunger each year.
There are several reasons for food shortage. First, there are more natural disasters. Also, a growing population(人口) makes feeding everyone more difficult.
Another big reason is food waste. Most people don’t realize how much food they throw away every day. The average(平均的) person throws away 50kg of food every year. According to the UN, more than one third of all food goes to waste each year.
Over 1,300 billion kilograms of food is wasted each year. The food wasted in Europe can feed 200 million people, while in Latin America 300 million a year.
So think twice before you throw away food. You’d better order as much food as you can eat at a restaurant. If you can’t eat all, take the rest home. Some food may not taste great, but your body needs it. Keep an eye on what food you have at home. Don’t buy too much. Don’t cook too much.
When you throw away food, you are not just wasting the food itself. Resources(资源), such as energy, time and water, are also wasted while growing and cooking. So everyone should know that it is important to save food. Saving food is saving ourselves.
Title: Introduction to World Food Day
The UN’s purpose(目的) to start this day To remind people not to 76 food and fight hunger.
Facts of food shortage 77 1,000 million people are hungry each year. 15 million children 78 their lives because of hunger each year.
