There’s the smell of fresh bread from a bakery somewhere. It would be hard to say which time of the day in Paris I prefer, but this probably is. Soon the streets will be full of people and traffic, and the real Paris will appear as the city wakes up. Under the city are hundreds of miles of tunnels. There areold subways and wine cellars that have been made into galleries. During the 19th century, farmers grew mushrooms in them. During World War Ⅱ， the French fighters also used them. Since the 1970s, groups of young people have spent days and nights there. Parties, theater performances, art galleries—everything goes here!Everywhere you go under Paris, there is history and stories. Writers often write about the tunnels in their books. Victor Hugo mentions them in his famous novel—Les Miserables. There is an underground pool there—with fish!Tourists can visit parts of the Paris underground.[来源:Z,xx,k.Com]However, it’s not allowed to enter other parts of the underground. However, there are people who will take you to visit them. I have found two “unofficial” tour guides—Dominique and Yopie. They take me through many tunnels,and after a couple of hours we arrive at a room which isn’t on any map.It’s comfortable and clean, with a table, chairs, and a bed. Yopie tells me there are many other places like this. “Many people come down here to have parties. They like the room.”1. Which of the following is not mentioned in the first paragraph?A.

What can be the best title for the text?A. A tour under Paris     B. My favorite novelC. The history of Paris     D. Two surprising guides                             B　Many people dream of travelling into outer space. However, spending too much time in space may cause health problems, according to NASA. That’s why astronauts shouldn’t spend more than six months on the International Space Station(ISS) at a time.Muscle(肌肉) and bonelessIn a weightless environment, astronauts don’t need to use their muscles to support themselves. Therefore, their muscles start shrinking(萎缩). To keep their muscles strong, astronauts need to exercise about 2 hours each day on the ISS. The weightless environment also causes astronauts bones to lose minerals, with density( 密 度 ) dropping at over 1 percent per month. The rate of bone loss for elderly people on Earth is 1 to 1.5 percent per year.Sleep disorderIn space, the sun rises every 90 minutes. It is hard for astronauts to get used to this light-dark cycle when they sleep. Also, they need to sleep in a sleeping bag that is fixed to a wall, which is uncomfortable. Astronauts now have individual sleeping pods(分离仓) that help shut out some of the light. Still, studies have found that most astronauts only sleep about six hours each night, even though they should have eight and a half hours.Brain changesScientists have found that the position of the brain changes during spaceflight. It shifts upward within the skull( 头 骨 ). This can affect how the brain deals with how we see, stay balanced and move around.That’s why some astronauts can’t control their movement and balance after returning to the earth. Scientists have also found that astronauts may get used to this change after going on more spaceflights. But they still need to domore research.6.According to the story, astronauts may have the following health problems:_______  .a.bone loss                 b.sleep disorder            c.mental disease             d.muscle shrinking           e.high blood pressureA. abe B. bcd C.abd D. bcd7.Astronauts have muscle problems after returning to the earth because___________  .A. they are too busy to exercise in space B. they don’t have enough room to exercise in spaceC. they don’t use their muscles in space D. they rarely walk while in space8.Astronauts sleep in individual sleeping pods to____________.A. shut out light                      B. stay warm at nightC. enjoy a quiet atmosphere  D. prevent themselves from floating around9.How can astronauts deal with the problem of losing their balance?A. They can walk upside-down on the earth.       B. They can sleep more and rest.C. They can take some medicine.  D.  They can go on more spaceflights.10.What’s the best title for this passage?A. Dream of travelling into space B. Health problems in spaceC. Muscle and bone loss in space D. Astronauts in space                                 CHow long does a year last? Children might say that a year lasts forever. But your parents might say that a whole year can pass in the blink of an eye. Why does time seem to pass faster as we get older?According to scientists from Duke University,US, our brains degrade (退化) and change overtime. This physical change causes the rate at which we take in and process new information to decline (下降).Babies, for example, move their eyes much more often than adults because they're processing images at a faster rate, Adrian Bejan from the university told the Daily Mail. They take in a lot of information and do many things in a single day. This makes them feel like a single day lasts for a long time.However, as people's brains degrade overtime, fewer images are processed in the same amount of time. Therefore, older people receive less information during a day than younger people. This causes things to seem as thought they're happening more quickly.In addition, people may also feel time differently due to psychological (心理）reasons.People may measure time by the number of memorable events that can be recalled within a certain period.Have you ever noticed that when you recall your firsts, first day of school, first family vacation, first birthday party, etc., they seem to be in slow motion? That's because when something is a first, there are many exciting things to remember. Recalling these memories makes you feel like they took forever, according to David Eagleman of the Baylor College of Medicine in the US.For many adults, life is routine (常规的). When they look back, they might feel like there are not many novel things to remember.Therefore, time seems to be moving faster to them.11. The phrase "in the blink of an eye" in Paragraph 1 means__________.A. directly        B. quickly        C. slowly       D. carefully12. What do we know from Paragraph 2?A. Human brains become smaller over time.B. Adults often feel that they don't have enough time.C. Adults don't process information as quickly as babies.D. Adults go through lots of physical changes.13. What does David Eagleman tell us?A. Babies take in a lot of information in a single day.B. Psychological factors can affect how a person feels about time.C. Recalling memories makes people feel like time is going faster.D. Memorable events can slow down the pace of brain degradation.14. Which of the following is Not True?  A.Babies move their eyes much more often than adults。     B. Babies feel like a single day lasts for a long time. C. Younger people receive more information during a day than older people    D. Time seems to be moving faster to many children.15. The aim of the story is to _________.A. encourage people to make better use of their timeB. explain why kids learn things faster than adultsC. explain why people sense time differently as hey ageD. remind people to create more memorable memories四．七选五Vanuatu (瓦努阿图)is a country of small islands in the South Pacific. It is one of the smallest countries in the world.1.________ However, it has become a popular place for travelers within the last five years. The reason is not that Vanuatu is the richest but that Vanuatu has white­sand islands, clear waters, great diving and food that grows faster than it can be picked.2．________ Some of the best swimming, snorkeling(潜水), and sea kayaking(皮划艇) can be found here. Vanuatu's islands also offer visitors some of the most exciting and dangerous activities in the world such as volcano surfing and land diving.On Tanna Island, Mount Yasur rises 300 meters (1，000 feet) into the sky. Yasur is one of a few active volcanoes (火山）in the country.3.________ For centuries, both island locals and visitors have climbed this mountain to visit the top.Recently, people have also started climbing Yasur to surf the volcano. 4.________ But in other ways, it's very different. A volcano surfer's goal is to escape the erupting volcano without being hit by flying rocks. It's fast, fun, and dangerous—the perfect extreme sport.5．________ But did you know bungee jumping（蹦极）started on Pentecost Island in Vanuatu? And it is almost 15 centuries old. The original activity, called land diving, is part of a religious ceremony. A man ties tree vines(树藤) around his ankles. Then he jumps headfirst from a high tower. The goal is to touch the earth with the top of his head without breaking the vine or hitting the ground hard. Every spring, island natives (men only) still perform this amazing test of bravery.A. The volcano has kept quiet for a long time.B. Most people are familiar with bungee jumping.C. It is also a best place for who love music and art.D. It was also one of the poorest nations in the area.E. In some ways, volcano surfing is like surfing in the sea.F. It erupts almost every day, sometimes several times a day.G.

In my opinion, I think it's necessary to set up the classes about Chinese traditional culture.On the one hand , Chinese traditional culture is the root of Chinese culture. It's the valuable treasure of China. As Chinese, we should always remember and support it. Only in this way can we love our great homeland..On the other hand, Chinese traditional classes can not only help us learn more about China but also increase our sense of national pride. As we all know,China is a great county with a long history as long as five- thousand years.   What's more, the classes can spread our excellent culture to the world so that more and more foreign countries will know China better. In a word, it’s really of great importance to set up Chinese traditional culture classes.Yours，Li Hua
