Pastime is a bi-monthly magazine for curious young minds. Many of the topics we write about won’t be covered in the classroom. All the articles are written in a lively style, and each one is paired with drawings by some of the country’s most talented artists.
♦ History focuses on archaeological (考古的) sites around the world where archaeologists work to unearth important finds.
♦ World includes stories about daily life, folk tales, and history and traditions of the people and places.
♦ Sport includes nutrition tips, information about up-and-coming young athletes, and sports events.
♦ Art stimulates a child’s cultural life, from film to theatre through to writing and music.
On top of all that, Pastime is packed with items to stimulate a youngster’s imagination, including pages of puzzles and a step-by-step guide to creating their own impressive-looking drawings.
In every issue, we review the latest books top authors write for youngsters. There are also short works of fiction written especially for Pastime by some of our best writers.
We know that children at this age are dealing with many emotions and sometimes difficult feelings, so we have a personal advice page to reply to questions dealing with personal and moral problems.
Unlike many of today’s throwaway comics, Pastime is written and designed to be kept and treasured. We know children love going online — but we also know how much they enjoy holding a printed magazine in their hands, and the excitement they get when each new issue drops through the letterbox personally addressed to them.
Subscription
Pastime is published six times a year. An annual subscription costs just £20 and makes a great gift for any child aged eight to twelve.

It all started this morning just before noon. Mrs. White was returning from the supermarket with her daughter and a friend, their neighbor. They stopped on the stairway of their building a their fifth-floor apartment. The neighbor opened her door first, and little Lily ran past her. She knew the apartment well, since she had visited it many times. The friend put down her keys and shopping bags, and turned back a moment to Mrs. White.
At that moment, there was a sudden gust of wind and the door to the apartment was closed. Lily was inside, alone.
Then the friend remembered that she had left her kitchen window open. She and Mrs. White rushed to Mrs. White's apartment and telephoned the police. But there was no time to get help in opening the neighboring apartment. They could see that Lily was already leaning out of the kitchen window. She had climbed onto a chair. and soon she was climbing out onto the window sill.
Mrs. White called to Lily to go back inside. But the little girl did not understand the danger and did not want to go back. She only waved to her mother.
Then she lost her balance and her feet slipped off the window sill. She managed to hold on for a while with her hands, but then she became weak and she began to be afraid. Her mother screamed for help, and now Lily was crying loudly.
And then she could hold on go longer Fortunately, several people had run out into the street on hearing all the screaming. They saw the child hanging onto the window sill and got ready to catch her. Down she fell five long stories and landed safe and sound in the arms of three strong men. They were Luis, Augusto, and Alfonso Nunes, father and sons, who live in the next building in her community. When they heard the screams, they rushed out of their home. “I never thought we’d do it” said Alfonso afterwards. “But I kept thinking, if we don’t catch her, she’ll die and I’ll feel sad and guilty all my life.”

If you choose only to complain and escape from a misfortune, it will always follow you wherever you go. But if you decide to be strong, the hardship will turn out to be a fortune on which new hopes will arise.
In an accident, a boy lost both his arms and his father------who was the main source of support for the family. Since then, he has had to depend on the arms of his younger brother. In order to take care of him, his younger brother became his shadow, never leaving him alone for years. Except for writing with his toes, he was completely unable to do anything in his life.
As the two brothers grew up together, they had their share of problems and they would often quarrel. Then one day, his younger brother wanted to leave, living his own life, as many normal people do. So he was heart-broken and didn't know what to do.
A similar misfortune happened to a girl, too. One night her mother, who suffered from chronic（慢性的）mental illness, disappeared. Her father went out to look for her mother, leaving her alone at home. She tried to prepare meals for her parents, only to overturn the kerosene (煤油) light on the stove, resulting in a fire which took her hands away.
Though her elder sister who was studying in another city, showed her willingness to take care of her, she was determined to be completely independent. At school, she always studied hard. Most of all she learned to be self-reliant (依靠自己).
One day, the boy and the girl were both invited to appear on a television interview program. The boy told the TV host about his uncertain future at being left on his own, while the girl was full of enthusiasm for her life. They both were asked to write something on a piece of paper with their toes. The boy wrote: My younger brother's arms are my arms; while the girl wrote: Broken wings, flying heart.
18. What attitude should we take towards a misfortune in the author's opinion?
A. Trying to find an escape from it.
B. Facing it bravely with a positive mind.
C. Asking for help from your relatives.
D. Ignoring it and living a normal life.
19. After the accident, the boy________.
A. decided to live with his brother B. learnt to do things with his toes
C. made a living all by himself D. depended wholly on his brother
20. What did the girl mean by "Broken wings, flying heart"?
A. Never give up hopes in face of hardship.
B. It's not easy for her to live a normal life.
C. If a bird loses its wings, it cannot fly.
D. If you lose your hands, your life will be hard.
21. How does the author develop the text?
A. In the order of time. B. By listing facts.
C. By making a comparison. D. In the order of importance.
D
Climate change is threatening our future as more and more greenhouse gases like CO2 are gathering in the atmosphere and heating up the planet. To fight the problem, both scientists and economists have suggested some good solutions. It turns out that whales, animals we’ve hunted to near extinction, are excellent at taking away CO2.
Whales remove CO2 from the air in two ways. First, they move nutrients(营养物) from their feeding areas deep in the ocean back to the surface, where they release them in their waste. Those nutrients aid the growth of phytoplankton(浮游植物), which, like other plants, takes away CO2 from the air. Second, whales themselves collect CO2 in their bodies when they eat other animals. The total amount of the gas adds up to about 33 tons over a whale’s lifetime. When whales die, they take away all that CO2 with them down to the ocean floor.
Saving the whales could also be more cost effective than planting trees. Financial experts say that one whale, taking away CO2 and tour value, would be worth about US$2 million over its lifetime. Compare this to the high costs needed to plant and keep forests for removing CO2, and you’ll see why whales might be an effective solution.
At one time, millions of whales swam the world’s oceans. Unluckily, commercial whaling between the 1600s and the mid-1900s brought many whale species close to extinction.
Starting in the 1970s, careful management of whaling began. Many species are recovering, but the giant animals still face major threats. One threat is continued hunting despite international regulation. For example, in Japan, “scientific” kills are carried out—often an excuse to get whale meat, which is considered delicious food. Public outcry has pressured many countries to limit or end whaling, and experts believe a new way to make money from whales—whale watching—will also be effective. However, another is more difficult to solve—pollution. Whales are affected by pollution from chemicals, noise, and the huge amounts of plastic and garbage that end up in the oceans.
These giants of the sea are important to the future health of our planet. If whale populations increased to where they were before commercial whaling, whales could remove an estimated 1.7 billion tons of CO2 per year. It might be an impossible dream, but it’s one definitely worth fighting for.
22. Which of the following is NOT true about how whales remove carbon from the air?
A. They move nutrients from deep in the ocean to the surface.
B. Many species of whales don’t release CO2.
C. Whales collect CO2 in their bodies through the food they eat.
D. When whales die, the collected CO2 remains in their bodies.
23. What is the financial value of a whale compared to?
A. The commercial hunting of ocean animals.
B. The financial value of ocean tourism.
C. The high costs of tree planting and forest protecting.
D. The ability of phytoplankton to remove CO2 from the air.
24. According to the passage, what threat is the harder to solve now?
A. Pollution. B. Scientific kills.
C. Whale watching. D. Continued hutting.
25. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To analyse the benefits whales bring.
B. To explain why whales are endangered.
C. To evaluate the effect of commercial whaling.
D. To call on people to save whales so as to protect the world.

Pastime is a bi-monthly magazine for curious young minds. Many of the topics we write about won’t be covered in the classroom. All the articles are written in a lively style, and each one is paired with drawings by some of the country’s most talented artists.
♦ History focuses on archaeological (考古的) sites around the world where archaeologists work to unearth important finds.
♦ World includes stories about daily life, folk tales, and history and traditions of the people and places.
♦ Sport includes nutrition tips, information about up-and-coming young athletes, and sports events.
♦ Art stimulates a child’s cultural life, from film to theatre through to writing and music.
On top of all that, Pastime is packed with items to stimulate a youngster’s imagination, including pages of puzzles and a step-by-step guide to creating their own impressive-looking drawings.
In every issue, we review the latest books top authors write for youngsters. There are also short works of fiction written especially for Pastime by some of our best writers.
We know that children at this age are dealing with many emotions and sometimes difficult feelings, so we have a personal advice page to reply to questions dealing with personal and moral problems.
Unlike many of today’s throwaway comics, Pastime is written and designed to be kept and treasured. We know children love going online — but we also know how much they enjoy holding a printed magazine in their hands, and the excitement they get when each new issue drops through the letterbox personally addressed to them.

If you choose only to complain and escape from a misfortune, it will always follow you wherever you go. But if you decide to be strong, the hardship will turn out to be a fortune on which new hopes will arise.
In an accident, a boy lost both his arms and his father------who was the main source of support for the family. Since then, he has had to depend on the arms of his younger brother. In order to take care of him, his younger brother became his shadow, never leaving him alone for years. Except for writing with his toes, he was completely unable to do anything in his life.
As the two brothers grew up together, they had their share of problems and they would often quarrel. Then one day, his younger brother wanted to leave, living his own life, as many normal people do. So he was heart-broken and didn't know what to do.
A similar misfortune happened to a girl, too. One night her mother, who suffered from chronic（慢性的）mental illness, disappeared. Her father went out to look for her mother, leaving her alone at home. She tried to prepare meals for her parents, only to overturn the kerosene (煤油) light on the stove, resulting in a fire which took her hands away.
Though her elder sister who was studying in another city, showed her willingness to take care of her, she was determined to be completely independent. At school, she always studied hard. Most of all she learned to be self-reliant (依靠自己).
One day, the boy and the girl were both invited to appear on a television interview program. The boy told the TV host about his uncertain future at being left on his own, while the girl was full of enthusiasm for her life. They both were asked to write something on a piece of paper with their toes. The boy wrote: My younger brother's arms are my arms; while the girl wrote: Broken wings, flying heart.
18. What attitude should we take towards a misfortune in the author's opinion?
A. Trying to find an escape from it.
B. Facing it bravely with a positive mind.
C. Asking for help from your relatives.
D. Ignoring it and living a normal life.
19. After the accident, the boy________.
A. decided to live with his brother B. learnt to do things with his toes

C. If a bird loses its wings, it cannot fly.

Climate change is threatening our future as more and more greenhouse gases like CO2 are gathering in the atmosphere and heating up the planet. To fight the problem, both scientists and economists have suggested some good solutions. It turns out that whales, animals we’ve hunted to near extinction, are excellent at taking away CO2.
Whales remove CO2 from the air in two ways. First, they move nutrients(营养物) from their feeding areas deep in the ocean back to the surface, where they release them in their waste. Those nutrients aid the growth of phytoplankton(浮游植物), which, like other plants, takes away CO2 from the air. Second, whales themselves collect CO2 in their bodies when they eat other animals. The total amount of the gas adds up to about 33 tons over a whale’s lifetime. When whales die, they take away all that CO2 with them down to the ocean floor.
Saving the whales could also be more cost effective than planting trees. Financial experts say that one whale, taking away CO2 and tour value, would be worth about US$2 million over its lifetime. Compare this to the high costs needed to plant and keep forests for removing CO2, and you’ll see why whales might be an effective solution.
At one time, millions of whales swam the world’s oceans. Unluckily, commercial whaling between the 1600s and the mid-1900s brought many whale species close to extinction.
Starting in the 1970s, careful management of whaling began. Many species are recovering, but the giant animals still face major threats. One threat is continued hunting despite international regulation. For example, in Japan, “scientific” kills are carried out—often an excuse to get whale meat, which is considered delicious food. Public outcry has pressured many countries to limit or end whaling, and experts believe a new way to make money from whales—whale watching—will also be effective. However, another is more difficult to solve—pollution. Whales are affected by pollution from chemicals, noise, and the huge amounts of plastic and garbage that end up in the oceans.
These giants of the sea are important to the future health of our planet. If whale populations increased to where they were before commercial whaling, whales could remove an estimated 1.7 billion tons of CO2 per year. It might be an impossible dream, but it’s one definitely worth fighting for.
22. Which of the following is NOT true about how whales remove carbon from the air?
A. They move nutrients from deep in the ocean to the surface.
B. Many species of whales don’t release CO2.
C. Whales collect CO2 in their bodies through the food they eat.
D. When whales die, the collected CO2 remains in their bodies.
23. What is the financial value of a whale compared to?
A. The commercial hunting of ocean animals.
B. The financial value of ocean tourism.
C. The high costs of tree planting and forest protecting.
D. The ability of phytoplankton to remove CO2 from the air.
24. According to the passage, what threat is the harder to solve now?
A. Pollution. B. Scientific kills.
C. Whale watching. D. Continued hutting.
25. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To analyse the benefits whales bring.
B. To explain why whales are endangered.
C. To evaluate the effect of commercial whaling.
D. To call on people to save whales so as to protect the world.

【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“First, they move nutrients(营养物) from their feeding areas deep in the ocean back to the surface, where they release them in their waste. ”（首先，它们把营养物质从海洋深处的觅食区搬回海面，然后在那里把营养物质通过排泄物释放出来）可知，选项A正确，排除选项A；根据第二段“ Second, whales themselves collect CO2 in their bodies when they eat other animals.”（第二，鲸鱼在吃其他动物的时候也会把二氧化碳吸入体内）可知，选项C正确，排除选项C；根据第二段“When whales die, they take away all that CO2 with them down to the ocean floor.”（当鲸鱼死亡时，它们把所有的二氧化碳都带到了海底）可知，选项D正确，排除选项D。文中并未提及选项B（许多种类的鲸鱼不释放二氧化碳），所以选项B错误。故选B。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Compare this to the high costs needed to plant and keep forests for removing CO2, and you’ll see why whales might be an effective solution.”（与种植和保护森林以去除二氧化碳所需的高昂成本相比，你就会明白为什么鲸鱼可能是一个有效的解决方案）可知，与植树造林和森林保护的高成本相比，鲸鱼更具经济价值。故选C。
24题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒第二段“However, another is more difficult to solve—pollution. ”（然而，另一个问题更难解决——污染）可知，污染带来的威胁更难解决。故选A。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Climate change is threatening our future as more and more greenhouse gases like CO2 are gathering in the atmosphere and heating up the planet. ”（气候变化正威胁着我们的未来，因为越来越多的温室气体，比如二氧化碳，正在聚集在大气中，使地球升温）以及“It turns out that whales, animals we’ve hunted to near extinction, are excellent at taking away CO2.”（事实证明，鲸鱼，这种被我们猎杀到几近灭绝的动物，非常善于吸收二氧化碳）可知，文章介绍了鲸鱼在吸收二氧化碳方面非常出色，目的是呼吁人们停止猎杀和污染，保护这些濒危动物就是保护人类自己，故选D。
