School policies vary as much as temperature When is it too cold for schoolchildren to go outside for recess（课间休息）? The answer varies widely based on where a school is located and what the kids are used to.‎ Consider: One northern Minnesota school says it has to be 15 below zero before kids are kept inside. But in areas along the East Coast, temperatures below 35 to 40 degrees could keep kids inside. Canceling recess because of the cold is no small issue considering that much of the USA is trembling through what may be its coldest winter in a generation, according to AccuWeather.‎ There is no national temperature standard for when to keep kids inside during the winter months, the U.S. Department of Education says. Decisions are made at the local level, either by principals or school districts.‎ Consequently, policies are all over the map:‎ ‎• In International Falls, Minn., the self-described "Icebox of the Nation," where the average high temperature in January is 13 degrees, Falls Elementary School Principal Jerry Hilfer says, "if it's 15 below (or warmer), they go out, no matter what." "At 20 below, it gets uncertain " he adds.‎ ‎• In Wicomico County, Md., principals typically keep children indoors when temperatures drop below freezing, or if it's raining or snowing, says Susan Jones, the school system's director of elementary education.‎ ‎"That's the bottom line," says Curtis Twilley, principal of Pemberton Elementary School in Salisbury, Md. Twilley says students get little exercise when recess stays indoors. At Pemberton Elementary, the students will typically play board games or computer games in a classroom because the school's gym is occupied with other classes, he says.‎ ‎• For schools in Marquette, Mich., which averages about 12 feet of snow per season, school officials acknowledge students are probably a little more prepared than those in some more mild climates.‎ ‎21. Which of the following is not true according to the passage_________.‎ A. No national temperature standard is made for when to keep kids inside during the winter months.‎ B. Mich has about 12 feet of snow per season on average.‎ C. In Wicomico County, children are kept indoors when temperatures drop below freezing.‎ D. Susan Jones insists students get little exercise and stay indoors for recess.‎ ‎22. Which place calls itself Box of Ice?‎ A. Wicomico County B. Marquette C. Minn D. Salisbury ‎23. Considering_______, canceling recess In USA because of the cold is a big issue.‎ A. much of the USA has very cold winter. B. different schools have different principles.‎ C. physical activity can boost student performance. D. decisions are made at the local level,‎ B Traffic jams seem a sure companion of national holidays. On May 1, there were constant traffic jams on highways leading out of the several metropolises, the longest, according to reports, was 55 kilometers. Some blame the jams on the two-year-old policy that allows cars with no more than seven seats to use the highways for free on public holidays, but a Beijing News editorial said this is not the real cause of the jams.‎ The growing automobile culture is doubtlessly among the causes. Data shows that China’s production and sales of automobiles both went up by 20 million in 2013. But over the same period there has been no breakthrough in highway construction, and when there are too many birds the nest will naturally become crowded.‎ Growing tourism also leads to the jams. At the 2014 global summit of the World Travel and Tourism Council, which ended last week, it was reported that Chinese people spent almost 3 trillion yuan on tourism in 2013, which took up more than 90 percent of hotel income and more than 80 percent of air and railway use.‎ Worse, Chinese have to travel during the same periods. As employees’ rights to paid leave often fail to be protected, many have no choice but to travel on the limited public holidays. From Oct 1 to 7, the so-called Golden Week, almost every tourist site will be full of visitors. Therefore it is wrong to blame the free-pass policy.‎ That does not mean the government should stand idle doing nothing. As traffic jams during the holidays are predictable, they could develop more public transport and strengthen legal supervision to ensure that every employee enjoys their entitlement to a paid vacation or offer free passes on other days to encourage people to travel on days other than public holidays. The measures might not prevent traffic jams, but they may at least ease the jams.‎ ‎24. How many factors are mentioned in the passage accounting for the traffic jam on the highway?‎ A. two B. three C. four D. five ‎25. What can we infer from the passage?‎ A. Traffic jams often happen on highways on national holidays. ‎ B. People prefer to stay at home because of traffic jams.‎ C. Chinese people spent over 3 trillion yuan on tourism in 2013.‎ D. There is nothing the government can do to prevent traffic jams.‎ ‎26. What does the underlined sentence (Para.2) mean?‎ A. highway construction cannot meet the demand of increasing cars.‎ B. the more highways are built, the less crowded it will become.‎ C. the rapid increase of cars is the direct cause of traffic jam on highways.‎ D. limits should be set on the use of private cars. ‎ ‎27. Which of the following ways can ease the jams according to the passage?‎ ‎ A. People drive private cars to spend holiday. B. People take trains to spend ‎ their holiday.‎ ‎ C. Employees can have an expense-paid vacation. D. People make use of public holidays to enjoy themselves. ‎ C ‎ We told my 8-year-old daughter recently that she has dyslexia. It felt like the right time to put a name to her struggle. Another child in the class had recently laughed at Viv when she tried to read out loud, and we had noticed that she was beginning to get down on herself because she couldn’t read beyond the easiest of early reader books.‎ I had armed myself with information about dyslexia, yet I didn’t rehearse(排练)the talk. Maybe I should have. When we told her that her brain works a little differently than her classmates’ brains, she reacted with a kind of refusal at first, saying she’s been keeping up with her peers. Then she went to our bedroom and cried for 15 minutes under the covers. ‎ I was upset and wondered if we had made the wrong decision. Was there a different way to describe dyslexia? Perhaps we should have better shared one of the success stories we’ve heard? But what does an 8-year-old know or care about Henry Winkler or Jay Leno, all of whom have dyslexia?‎ I had purchased three books about dyslexia, but I was unhappy with them — one was too medical; one was too old for her; and one was a picture book. Without thinking, I read aloud the medical book. After reading I knew I was making a mistake. My daughter burst in tears. “I’m dumb,” she cried. “I’ll never learn to read.” All I could do was to hold her weeping.‎ The next day Viv brought home a big red picture book by Oliver Jeffers, “A Child of Books.” Ms. Emily had chosen it for her, and as we read it out loud that afternoon, I understood why. In it some words are written “The dyslexia come from a world of stories and upon rich imagination they float.” ‎ In the summer, a reading specialist came to help Viv learn to read. I listened from the kitchen with a bright smile appearing on my face as Viv worked her way through words-spelling in early reader.‎ ‎28. The person who has dyslexia always has difficulty in _______.‎ ‎ A. reading and spelling B. listening and writing C. reading and writing D. spelling and speaking ‎29. Why did Ms. Emily choose the book written by Oliver Jeffers for Viv ? ‎ ‎ A. Because the book was so interesting. ‎ B. Because the book was so simple that Viv can read it easily.‎ ‎ C. Because the book encouraged Viv to enjoy stories with her imagination. ‎ D. Because the book instructed Viv how to read books.‎ ‎30. What does the last paragraph imply ?‎ A. The little girl will cooperate with the specialist B. The specialist will cure Viv of dyslexia.‎ C. The specialist will visit her frequently. D. The little girl will improve herself gradually.‎ ‎31. What conclusion can we draw from the passage ?‎ ‎ A. It’s sensible to make Viv herself know what the dyslexia is.‎ ‎ B. Viv didn’t realize her problems in reading at the beginning.‎ ‎ C. Henry Winkler and Jay Leno inspire Viv to overcome the dyslexia.‎ ‎ D. The mother was not well concerned of the dyslexia.‎ D ‎ Sharing E Umbrella, a new umbrella sharing company based in Shenzhen, China, recently announced that it had lost most of the 300, 000 umbrellas it made available since it launched in April.‎ ‎ China's sharing economy has been booming, with companies offering anything from bicycles and basketballs to smart phone battery banks on a rental basis. Customers make a small deposit(押金) and get to use the item for a set period of time for a daily fee, with penalty fees put in place for every day that they fail to return the product after the deadline. It's a simple business model, and market data shows that consumers see sharing as a cheap and convenient way to reduce waste. However, it doesn't always work out as well as those businessmen hope.‎ ‎ Inspired by the success of the bicycle sharing model and thinking that "everything on the street can now be shared", Zhao Shuping, a businessman from Shenzhen, founded the Sharing E Umbrella, an umbrella sharing service, in April. By the end of June, his business had already launched in 11 major Chinese cities, including Shanghai, Nanjing and Guangzhou. But while ‎ picking up the umbrellas was relatively simple, as they were made available at bus and subway stations, the return policy turned out to be a different matter entirely. ‎ ‎ "Umbrellas are different from bicycles," Mr. Zhao told Chinese news site ThePaper. cn. "Bikes can be parked anywhere, but with an umbrella you need bars or a fence to hang it on."‎ ‎ So instead of bothering to return the umbrellas back to a station, a lot of people just took them home, and Sharing E Umbrella has reportedly lost track of most of the 300,000 umbrellas it had in circulation. Considering that borrowing umbrellas requires a 19 yuan deposit, with a fee of 0.50 yuan per half an hour usage, and Zhao estimates that he loses 60 yuan per lost umbrella, the company is now in the red, but Zhao is not ready to call it quits just yet.‎ ‎ Zhao claims that despite the unforeseen setback, Sharing E Umbrella still plans to roll out 30 million nationwide by the end of the year.‎ ‎32. About sharing economy, which of the following sentences is not consistent with the text?‎ ‎ A. Users can share anything in China nowadays with the booming sharing economy.‎ ‎ B. Sharing economy has its advantages as to saving resources.‎ ‎ C. Not all the results of sharing economy turn out as expected.‎ ‎ D. Users will face a fine if they don't return the item within the due time.‎ ‎33. Contrary to other booming sharing businesses, what problems is facing Sharing E Umbrella?‎ ‎ A. Sharing E Umbrella fails to compete with its competitors. ‎ ‎ B. The model of Sharing E Umbrella doesn't meet customers' needs perfectly.‎ ‎ C. Sharing E Umbrella turns out to be a failure for lack of money.‎ ‎ D. The customers' lack of social responsibility.‎ ‎34. With the company in the red, what measures does Zhao take then?‎ ‎ A. He decides to take all the lost Umbrellas back.‎ ‎ B. He is going to change the renting model of the E Umbrellas.‎ ‎ C. He continues to put more Umbrellas on the market.‎ ‎ D. It's not stated in the text.‎ ‎35. What does the text mainly talk about?‎ ‎ A. The booming development of Chinese sharing economy.‎ ‎ B. An introduction of the situation of a sharing company.‎ ‎ C. The drawbacks facing Sharing E umbrella industries in China.‎ ‎ D. Many customers failed to return the umbrella for its inconvenience.‎ 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）‎ ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 ‎ How to Love Your Parents Even if you think that your parents are mean-spirited at times, loving your parents is a normal and fulfilling part of life.
