I was looking forward to having five fays off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride (搭便车).‎ I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured （使…放心）me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.‎ Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.‎ After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You - 18 - / 18‎ ‎ haven’t changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.” I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.‎ ‎4. The author had to hitch a ride one day in 1978 because .‎ A. she missed the only train back home B. she was going home for her holidays C. the town was far away from Sydney D. her work delayed her trip to Sydney ‎5.

He watched the girl for three hours.‎ ‎6. The reason why the author offered a lift to the elderly man was that　 .‎ A. she realized he was Gordon B. she had known him for decades C. she wanted to repay the favour she once got D. she was going to the nearby town  ‎ ‎7. What does the author want to tell the readers through the - 18 - / 18‎ ‎ story?‎ A. Those who give rides will be rapid.‎ B. Good manners bring about happiness.‎ C. People should offer free rides to others.‎ D. Giving sometimes produces nice results.‎ C When it comes to President Obama, most of his personal business is already known by the public. Personal information about his children, Malia and Sasha, however, has been kept a little more under wraps.‎ The New York Times recently released a list of rules that Michelle Obama has mentioned over the years that Malia and Sasha must follow during their time in the White House, as well as in general. See how the first family educates their children:‎ The girls must write reports about what they’ve seen on their trips, even if it’s not required by their school.‎ Malia may use her cell phone only on the weekends, and she and her sister cannot watch television or use a computer for anything but homework during the week.‎ Malia and Sasha have to play two sports: one they choose and one selected by their mother.‎ Malia must learn to do laundry(洗衣服) before she leaves for - 18 - / 18‎ ‎ college.‎ The girls have to eat their vegetables, and if they say they are not hungry, they cannot ask for cookies or chips later.‎ While these might be shocking to some, Michelle said, “They’re not little princess. It’s just basic rules, boundaries, and expectations that we would have normally.”‎ Michelle also mentions another set of rules:‎ The girls must do their chores(家务), though the White House has a large staff. Malia and Sasha have chores of their own.‎ They must play a team sport, because it’s about learning how to play on a team, how to lose and how to win gracefully…‎ It sounds like Michelle and Barack want the best for their kids and to make them as well-rounded as possible. What are your thoughts on the Obama family rules?  ‎ ‎8. What’s the passage mainly about?‎ A．The first family daily life.  B．The first family rules.‎ C．How to be good parents.  D．How to be good students.‎ ‎9.

To use the cell phone freely B. To play two sports ‎ C. To learn to do the laundry D. To eat their vegetables D For better eyesight(视力), doctors advise limiting(限制)the hours of screen time and encourage having enough eye resting time．‎ ‎　　However, another study shows that sitting in front of computer or TV screens for long hours is not the only reason for myopia(近视)．An Australian research team studied young children in Sydney and Singapore to find the reasons for myopia．The research team found that there were less children who had myopia in Sydney than those in Singapore, even though they spent more time in front of computer and TV screens．The major finding is that children in Sydney spend longer hours on outdoor sports than those in Singapore．‎ ‎　　Indoor and outdoor sports both make the eyes pay attention to more distant(远处的)objects, which stops the eyes from changing original shape．But outdoor sports may be better than - 18 - / 18‎ ‎ indoor sports for myopia．Because natural light is good for eye growth and vitamin(维他命)D from the sunlight might be useful to it．Many doctors suggest that every child get its first eye test when he/she is about two and half years old, and even if his/her sight seems good enough．It is necessary for myopic(近视的)children to wear glasses to stop headaches, trouble reading and so on．It is also important that schools invite doctors to test their students’ eyes．‎ If that is not possible, school teachers should at least encourage parents and children to have regular eye examination and wear glasses．And parents should remember not only to limit the total screen time for their children, but also to encourage them to spend time outdoors．‎ ‎12. What's the aim of the study by the Australian research team ?‎ A. To find the causes for myopia. B. To find the ways to treat myopia. C. To prove the bad effects of myopia. D. To prove the prevalence of myopia. ‎ - 18 - / 18‎ ‎13. Why are there fewer children with myopia in Sydney than in Singapore ?‎ A. Because Sydney children watch less TV. B. Because Sydney children have more eye resting time. C. Because Sydney children use computers less. D. Because Sydney children do more outdoor sports. ‎ ‎14.

Doing outdoor activities is good for myopia children’s eyes. C. Focusing on distant objects can change their original shape. ‎ D. Children should limit their screen time II. 七选五。（2分×5）‎ Nowadays parents and their children are spending less and less - 18 - / 18‎ ‎ time communicating with each other.      16  .

To keep your family time creative and enjoyable, below is a list of helpful family time tips.‎ ‎◆ Eat together & listen to each other Most children today don’t know the meaning of a family dinnertime.
