The tw bks als explre the African art f strytelling, said Brenda Randlph. Randlph funded the awards many years ag t help kids learn mre abut Africa thrugh bks. “There is a strng strytelling traditin in Africa,” she said in an interview.
At the Hassaniyya Quaranic Schl in the city f Cape Cast, Williamsn and her students wanted t write a bk abut pllutin. “Giz-Giz!” is abut a spider that thrws unwanted things and chemicals int a lake that is shared by many animals. One day, he eats the lake’s sick fish and becmes sick himself. Then the spider decides t clean up his mess. The bk wes (归功于) much t the “students’ memries f listening t their grandparents telling them stries and t their everyday experiences and imaginatins,” said Williamsn.
Turk wanted t create a bk abut the pwer f stries after he visited Mrcc in 2012. On his trip, he learned that the strytelling traditin was disappearing.

Hallween has always been my favrite hliday. As a child, I lked frward all year t dressing up and ging trick-r-treating. I still lve putting n cstumes ( 节日服装) and cutting pumpkins (南瓜). Hwever, with childhd besity (肥胖) n the rise, many parents nwadays want t limit added sugars in their children’s diets.
I spke t dzens f parents abut hw they deal with Hallween candy. Sme parents avid taking their kids trick-r-treating and take them swimming r ding ther sprts instead. Their kids haven’t cmplained. And then there are parents wh take their kids trick-r-treating and maybe let them have a cuple f pieces f candy that evening. Once the kids are in bed, the parents change the candy fr a ty.
A Pennsylvania State University study shws, hwever, that girls wh have treats n a regular basis eat less f these fds when they are ffered them and are likely t have a better bdy shape. Anther study frm the Netherlands cmpared the eating behavirs f children wh were tld they culdn’t have sweets r were allwed t eat what they wanted. The restricted (受限制的) grups wanted mre f the fds they weren’t allwed t have and ate mre n the whle.
As a fd expert, I tell parents t see Hallween as a learning pprtunity. Sweets and ther treats are part f life, and keeping kids frm less healthy fds desn’t teach them hw t manage them and cntrl their eating as adults. It’s fine fr kids t have a few pieces f candy a day, fr example, as dessert (饭后甜点) after a meal. One way t d this is t have a piece f candy with lunch. This encurages mindful eating rather than distracted eating in frnt f the TV. Eating small amunts f treats shuld help kids learn t enjy them mre s they’re satisfied.
5. Hw did the authr experience Hallween differently frm tday’s kids?
A. She missed sme activities because f besity.
B. She was frced t d sme sprts.
C. She enjyed herself heartily.
D. She preferred tys t candy.
6. What is sme kids’ reactin t their absence frm trick-r-treat?
A. They say it’s unfair.
B. They are OK with it.
C. They shw their anger.
D. They cnsider it encuraging.
7. What can be learned frm the Netherlands study?
A. Girls are less attracted t sweets.
B. Eating habits are frmed frm childhd.
C. Eating sme candy can be helpful fr kids.
D. Keeping fds frm kids desn’t teach self-cntrl.
8. What des the authr suggest abut sweets?
A. Aviding them as much as pssible.
B. Enjying them with the family.
C. Sharing them with friends.
D. Having sme with meals.

话题：人际关系
本文是记叙文。为了缅怀去世的丈夫，作者一直开着丈夫生前的车子出行。一次严重追尾事故后，作者不得不买一辆新车。由于心怀对旧车的情愫，作者的新车购买经历并不愉快。然而，汽车销售员与已故丈夫相同的经历改变了一切。
41. B。根据本空前的damaged badly及下文的buy a new car可知，“我”的车受损严重，已经无法“修理（repair）”。
42. D。43. A。44. D。联系上文，并根据第三段中的as ppsed t when yu’re frced t buy a car可知，“我”“被迫（frced）”购买新车，对于预算里不得不加入一项并不想要的购车“开支（payment）”，“我”很不开心。“我”说服自己接受这个“现实（situatin）”，继而投身茫茫购车界。
45. A。46. B。“我”爱“我”的车，“因为（because）”这辆车曾属于“我”的丈夫。五年前丈夫离世，但“开着（driving）”他的车让“我”觉得他仿佛陪伴在“我”的身边。
47. C。48. C。根据my unhappiness shwed n my face及He asked可知，“很显然（Clearly）”,“我”的不快尽然呈现于面，于是汽车销售员问询是否什么“出了问题（wrng）”。
49. A。50. C。根据第二段中的This was nt a pleasant task可知，“我”向那位汽车销售员解释道对于“我”来说，这次购买汽车的经历并不“愉快（enjyable）”。自己主动“选择（chse）”去买一辆车与被迫买一辆车之间有天壤之别。
51. B。52. C。根据第二段中的he was riding with me可知，“我”解释道，失去丈夫后，“我”“保留（kept）”了他的车，后排座椅上放着他的球鞋和手套，陪伴着“我”“穿行（traveled）”于大街小巷。
53. A。54. D。55. D。56. B。根据“I’m a champin handball player,” he said. “S was my husband,” I said及Rcky had spken abut the very same thing可知，汽车销售员说道，他同“我”丈夫一样曾得过手球比赛的冠军。接下来，他又“继续（went n）”讲了杀手球，“我”“完全（exactly）”明白他的意思，因为“我”丈夫Rcky说过同样的内容：杀手球以极低的高度与墙面相撞，对手几无可能“击回（return）”该球。这一切让“我”觉得很“惊喜（amazing）”。
57. A。58. C。就在那一刻，“我”与那位汽车销售员有了某种“联接（cnnected）”。“我”开始觉得“我”的丈夫仿佛就矗身于此，陪伴在“我”的身边，告诉“我”不要因为失去他的车感到“难过（bad）”。
59. D。60. B。根据第一段中的buy a new car及第四段中的his handball shes and glves placed n the back seat可知，愁云尽消的“我”对于“新（new）”车感到很满意。回到家后，“我”“再次（again）”将丈夫的球鞋和手套放在了后排座椅上。
