On a trip to California, my family stopped for lunch. As we walked toward the entrance to the restaurant, a man, with a 31 bear d and dirty hair, jumped up from a bench and opened the door for us. Regardless of his 32 , he greeted us in a friendly way.
Once inside, my daughters whispered, “Mom, he 33 bad.” After we ordered our lunch, I explained, telling the kids to look 34 the appearance. We then watched other customers approach the restaurant but many 35 him. This rudeness truly upset me.

A
We all remember the first adventure novel where our imaginations were lit by whispers of buried treasure, lost worlds, and faraway jungles. Luckily, here are some of the best adventure books. Click on the book name for detailed information.
Jaws by Peter Benchley
The 1974 book inspired Steven Spielberg’s hit movie—which then made beach attendance drop dramatically in 1975．Jaw s is the story of three men’s search to kill a human-eating great white shark. It’s a high-risky adventure on the sea, which holds more dangers than anyone could have ever imagined.
Children of the Comet by Donald Moffitt
In the far future, a small community lives in space and harvests frozen air to make a living. But what happens when hunters from neighboring comets(彗星)—and humans on spaceships—appear on the scene This is a great adventure in a very literal sense, as our young hero, Torris, tries to survive on a comet made entirely of ice.
Tarzan of the Apes by Edgar Rice Burroughs
This book launched the legend of an orphaned boy who is adopted by apes in the African jungle. Named Tarzan, the boy eventually has to prove himself on two fronts: the animal kingdom and the even more threatening world of humans. In the animal kingdom, Tarzan shows his survival skills and strength as he competes with powerful predators (猎食动物) . However, Tarzan’s greatest test lies in his interaction with humans. As he encounters explorers and settlers in the African jungle, he must deal with the complexities of human society.
Raptor Red by Robert T. Bakker
This book tells the story of a female Utahraptor named Red and her struggles for survival in the prehistoric dinosaur-eat-dinosaur world. Unlike any other book out there, Raptor Red is told from the third-person point of view. The author expertly draws upon heartfelt research about the Cretaceous Period (白垩纪) to bring a prehistoric Earth to life.

B
I received a private message on Facebook. It began harmlessly enough: “Hey, girl. You are wanted to join my next challenge group—we’ll be focusing on fitting in 30 minutes of exercise and balanced nutrition.” It was all becoming too much. Facebook was running my life, not me.
But what killed Facebook for me was when I posted a photo, and five minutes later my son asked me how many “likes” it had got. His question was a wake-up call. “Likes” are signs of acceptance and approval. I had forgotten that acceptance and approval need to come from within and had unknowingly set him a bad example. Before Facebook, surfing the internet was an occasional distraction (分心的事) and I spent a lot more time reading books. I checked in with friends through texts, emails and phone calls.
To recreate the simplicity of those days and set a healthier example for my son, I closed my Facebook account. I’d been in the habit of checking Facebook many times a day, so I had to come up with some new habits. I carried a novel and a crossword puzzle book around with me. I started taking yoga classes again.
I started to remember a few things. My body is fine just the way it is. I have friends who will help me out when I’m in trouble, and I will help them out. I do my best to be a good mother, and our son is happy and healthy. We are very lucky to be able to afford two vacations a year. I stopped looking at the world through my cellphone. I felt completely present in the moment. The break left me feeling better about myself, my family, my home and my life.
After a few weeks, I returned to Facebook. Now I look at the photos of my friends’ kids growing up and treasure how social media allows me to keep in touch with family far and wide. I look in on a daily basis, but no longer with the desire constantly to post updates. It is not an addiction any more. I managed to use it reasonably.
（ ）56．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refer to
A．The challenge. B．The message. C．The exercise. D．The nutrition.
（ ）57．What can we know from the second paragraph
A．The author’s son liked the photo posted on the Facebook.
B．The author spent much time surfing the internet before Facebook.
C．Facebook shifted the author’s focus away from reading books.
D．The son’s question made the author know the importance of acceptance.
（ ）58．What did the author do to change her life
A．She traveled around a lot for a year. B．She developed some healthy habits.
C．She tried to help her friends on vacations. D．She went to the gym as often as she could.
（ ）59．What did the author think of the break from Facebook
A．It gave her time to find beauty in life. B．It distanced her from her friends.
C．It prevented her from getting updates. D．It stopped her using social media completely.
（ ）60．In the author’s opinion, what attitude should people adopt on using social media
A．Doubtful. B．Supportive. C．Cautious. D．Indifferent.
C
Richard is a very a successful businessman. It is common for him to work hard with a non-stop. He wasn’t aware that he might wear himself out or die an early death until he overslept one morning, which was a sort of alarm. And then what happened He had a week’s leave and during that time he read novels, listened to music and walked with his wife on a beach, which enabled Richard to return to work more energetically.
In our modern life, we have lost the rhythm between action and rest. Amazingly, within this world there is a universal but silly saying: “I am so busy.”
We say this to one another as if our tireless efforts were a talent by nature and an ability to successfully deal with stress. The busier we are, the more important we seem to ourselves and, we imagine, to others. To be unavailable to our friends and family, and to be unable to find time to relax—this has become the model of a successful life.
Because we do not rest, we lose our way. We miss the guide telling us where to go, the food providing us with strength, the quiet giving us wisdom.
How have we allowed this to happen I believe it is this: we have forgotten the Sabbath, the day of the week—for followers of some religions—for rest and praying. It is a day when we are not supposed to work, a time when we devote ourselves to enjoying and celebrating what is beautiful. It is a good time to bless our children and loved ones, give thanks, share meals, walk and sleep. It is a time for us to take a rest, to put our work aside, trusting that there are larger forces at work taking care of the world.
Rest is a spiritual and biological need; however, in our strong ambition to be successful and care for our many responsibilities, we may feel terribly guilty when we take time to rest. The Sabbat h gives us permission to stop work. In fact, “Remember the Sabbath” is more than simply permission to rest; it is a rule to obey and a principle to follow.
（ ）61．What’s the function of Paragraph 1
A．To tell us that Richard lives a healthy life. B．To bring up the topic of the passage.
C．To give us a brief introduction of Richard. D．To tell Richard is a successful businessman.
（ ）62．What does the underlined word “alarm” in the first paragraph mean
A．a signal of stress. B．a warning of danger.
C．a sign of age. D．a spread of disease.
（ ）63．According to Paragraph 3, a successful person is one who is believed to ______.
A．be able to work without stress B．be more talented than other people
C．be more important than anyone else D．be busy working without time to rest
（ ）64．According to the passage, what should we not do during the Sabbath
A．Praying for our family. B．Taking a good break.
C．Working for long hours. D．Enjoying delicious meals.
（ ）65．What is the main idea of this passage
A．We should balance work with rest. B．The Sabbath gives us permission to rest.
C．It is silly for anyone to say “I am busy.” D．We should be available to our family and friends.

阅读下面短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题．
Kristin Schell is the founder of The Turquoise Table, a movement of ordinary people who want to create community right in their own front yards. Ten years ago, she and her family moved to a new home in Austin, Texas.
One day, Kristin tried to connect with her new neighbors by hosting a party. She bought a few picnic tables but the delivery driver set one table down in her front yard by mistake. “After the party, I painted the table turquoise—my favorite color—and put it in the front yard, just a few feet from the sidewalk,” she says.
That turquoise table became the place where Kristin and her kids hung out. They played games, did crafts and ate snacks.
Neighbors began to stop by to introduce themselves and sit down for a chat. Kristin invited people to join her at the table for coffee or iced tea. Then neighbors asked Kristin if their family could put a picnic table in their front yard too. A movement was born. “It was a simple way to slow down and connect with others,” she says. The turquoise table was inviting and had a shared feel.
People often hesitate to invite others into their homes. They think their house is too messy, it’s not big enough or they don’t have enough time. “Our perfectionism can cause us to miss out on the joy of connecting with others,” Kristin says. Her picnic table takes away the excuses—and the pressure.
She likes how it enables her to take a small step toward easing loneliness and building relationships in her community. “People’s greatest need is to know that they are loved and that they belong,” she says.
A decade after their Texas beginnings, thousands of Turquoise Tables exist in all 50 states and in 13 countries around the world. Not all of them are actually turquoise. “No matter what color it is, it’s a friendship table,” Kristin says.

Dear Chris,
I hope you’re doing well. I heard about your plan to create the “Approaching Chinese Students” column through short videos, and I’m happy to provide recommendations for a shooting scene.
I suggest capturing the fantastic atmosphere of club activities and the reasons are as follows. Firstly, school clubs are a great platform for students to explore their interests and show their talents. By filming club activities, you can highlight the diverse talents and skills of Chinese students. What’s more, club activities often require teamwork and cooperation, which are important skills for students to develop. Filming club activities will demonstrate the spirit of team work and cooperation among Chinese students. Finally, club activities often reflect specific aspects of Chinese culture. By showcasing club activities, you can provide a glimpse into Chinese culture and promote cultural exchange.
May the “Approaching Chinese Students” column be a successful attempt, enhancing understanding and appreciation of Chinese high school life.
Yours,
Li Jin
