I used to dislike PE lessons as a teenager. I was not very good at sports, and I hated team sports 21 I always felt like I was disappointing the rest of the team. During these years, Isometimes felt disconnected from my body like only my brain was“me”and my 22 was just a vehicle (运载工具) for carrying my brain around.
When I started university, I decided to try a kung fu club. To my 23 , I loved it! In my first year, most of us were beginners. I used to go two or three times a week. Because it is not a team sport, I didn't feel 24 about not being very good. And because it is a combat(格斗) sport, you train in 25 , which means that you get to meet people and talk to them. I also appreciated (欣赏)that the classes not only 26 improving my kung fu skills, 27 aimed to transform my body through exercise. When I was doing kung fu, my body changed—I got 28 and quicker, but the changes were a side effect of the sport, instead of the goal.
29 I moved to Italy this year, I decided to start doing a combat sport 30 . I joined a local kung fu club and I loved it. We did lots of sparring (拳击). I think that sparring is like chess, but much faster and much more fun! If your sparring partner tries to 31 you hard with his fist, you have to move quickly to 32 him, block or even catch his arm and then hit him 33 .
When I was a teenager, I would say I just wasn't a sport y person and that I just didn't like sport and never would. Now I think that everyone should try as 34 sports as possible because I believe there is something out there for everyone! I feel connected to my body and I am 35 and have more energy when I have been doing sport.

At the summit, Susan said that the state of the environment worried her a lot.“You don't know how to fix the holes in our ozone layer(臭氧层). You don't know how to bring back forests that once grew where there is now desert. If you don't know how to fix the Earth, please stop breaking it!”The six-minute speech silenced all the people and made them fall into deep thinking.
After that speech, Susan began to lead“two lives.”On the typical days, she was a schoolchild.But during her vacations, she spoke internationally about the environment.
Now, nearly 30 years has passed since Susan made her Rio speech. Although many of the world's environmental problems have become worse , Susan does agree that some things are different now. More and more people give voice like Susan because they have realized the importance of the environment.

Snow forests make up about 30% of the world's total forest areas. These wonderful woodlands are not as famous as the Amazon rain forests but they are just as important.
Snow forests are found in the far north of the world, in areas that are quite cold and usually have a lot of snowfall. They lie across parts of Canada, China, Finland, Japan, Norway, Russia,Sweden and the US. Snow forests have very cold winters that can last up to six months. But even so,they are home to many kinds of animals, including foxes, mice and wolves. In the US and Canada,as many as five billion birds from more than 300 species(品种) live in the forests in the breeding(繁殖) season.
These woodlands perform an important job — helping to take in harmful gases(气体). The gases are given off by burning coal, oil and gas, which can cause climate change. However, snow forests are facing several problems. Trees are being cut down faster and faster for their wood, which can be used for building. Some forests are being cleared to make space for new roads and houses, or to allow coal and gas factories to grow. What's worse, as the world gets warmer, Canada and Russia have seen terrible fires spread through the forests.
Luckily, environmental and wildlife groups around the world are working hard to protect snow forests. This means that cutting down trees is controlled in some areas and the forests are seen as areas of special scientific research. When wood is needed, replanting plans and careful forest management(管理) help to reduce the human influence so that the forests are managed in a way that they can develop and regrow.
( )50. What do we know about snow forests from this passage
A. They need a long time to grow up.
B. They are important to many animals and birds.
C. They produce best wood for building.
D. They are as famous as rain forests.
( )51. Snow forests are in danger now mainly because of .
A. heavy snowfall B. air pollution
C. animals'waste D. human activities
( )52. What's the purpose of this passage
A. To compare rainforests to snow forests.
B. To invite people to visit snow forests.
C. To call on us to protect snow forests.
D. To describe the wildlife in snow forests.
( )53. What does the writer think of snow forests' future
A. Useful. B. Awful. C. Doubtful. D. Hopeful.

The only thing better than reading a good book is reading it with others. In a book club, a group of people choose a book that everyone will read separately and then discuss together. Reading is not only something you enjoy by yourself. 54
55 Because the rules you have made might well change, depending on the group.However, it's good to think ahead about how you'd like the book club to run and when and where you'll meet.
56 Think of eight to twelve people around your age. Perhaps encourage your friends to invite people who they know well but you haven't met. A book club can help you make friends.
Second, having a subject can make the club receive more attention. You might want to read fantasy stories or science fiction(小说). 57 If you take it in turns to choose the books you read,you might discover some great new books and authors too.
Finally, make sure you read the book before the meeting. 58
Actions speak louder than words. Try to start a book club of your own.
A. First, invite some friends to be your members.
B. There are no rules of starting a book club.
C. It's also a lot of fun to talk about what you're reading with friends.
D. A subject makes it easier to decide which book to read.
E. And then come to the meeting with questions to discuss.

none silent stand we courage question fast protect but without begin stop
Once in a physics class, the teacher asked students,“Why do we have brakes (刹车) in our cars ”Soon, students gave different answers. A student 85 up and replied,“Sir, to stop the car.”Another one said,“To reduce and control the speed of the car.”
However, 86 of the answers was the same as the teacher's. Then he said,“All of your answers are right. But in my opinion, the brakes in the car make us able to drive much 87 .”
“If the car has no brakes, how fast are we ready to drive It is the brakes in the car that give us88 to drive fast and safely.”Listening to this, the whole class was 89 because no one had imagined this answer.
Similarly, there are many such“brakes”in our life, which seem to stop us. For example, our parents may ask
90 about progress or decisions in life. Their 91 or suggestions may be considered as“brakes”which stand in our way. But we can see them as our supporters which can92 us while taking risks. Sometimes, we have to 93 or even step back, so that we can take a big step.
In fact, it is the“brakes”in life that help us a lot. 94 these“brakes”, we could lose our direction or get into danger. So we need to understand that“brakes”in our life are not meant to push us back 95 to make us move forward more quickly than before.
