Passage 3
October 16 is World Food Day. The UN started the day in 1979. It is used to remind people not to waste food and to ask people to fight hunger.
A big member of people in the world still don't have enough to eat. Food shortage (匮乏) is a big problem in the world. Right now, there are more than 1000 million hungry people in the world according to the UN. Many children go to sleep with hunger, and 15 million of them die of hunger each year.
There are several reasons why there are food shortages. First, there have been more droughts(干旱) and floods recently. Also, a growing population makes feeding everyone more difficult.
Another several reasons is food waste. Most people don't realize how much food they throw away every day. On avenge(平均), person throws away 50 kilos of food every year. According to the UN, more than 1/3 of all food produced in the world goes to waste each year. The amount (数量) of food wasted in Europe can feed 200 million people and the food wasted in Latin America can feed 300 million a year.
So think twice next time you want to throw away food. If you try to avoid wasting food, you could save some food and help hungry children. Only order as much food as you can eat at a restaurant. If you can't eat all you order, take the rest home. Don't be too picky (挑剔的) about food so that you don" leave any on your plate. Keep an eye on what food you have at home. Don't buy or cook too much

Passage 4
We often think the Arctic(北极) only has snow and ice. But in fact, it has far more than that!
The Arctic is on top of Earth. The Arctic Ocean makes up two-thirds of the Arctic, while one-third is made up of land in eight countries, including Russia, Canada, and the US.

You might think that the Arctic is too cold for people to live in. But surprisingly, there are about 4 million people living there. That's the same population as the city of Taiyuan in Shanxi, China. About 10 percent are local people. They have been there for thousands of years. They make a living by fishing, hunting and so on

Bi Sheng was born in the Song Dynasty. He lived in a small village which lies in Huanggang today. He invented the printing around 600 AD（公元）.

Now students’ English handwriting gets worse and worse. That makes their teachers feel worried. Is your English handwriting beautiful? If not, here is some advice to help you.
Using paper with lines can keep you writing straight instead of up or down when you write English words or sentences. Those lines on the paper can help you to write words in the right size. Be sure to use the lined space completely. And make sure those capital letters (大写字母) are written properly.
If your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. For some kids, going slower makes the handwriting clear. If you write too quickly, it’s hard for you to stop where you should, and even worse, you may make more mistakes.
When you hold your pencil the correct way, writing is much nicer. Some kids press down really hard when they write. That makes the handwriting not nice. Try to be relaxed and don’t hold the pencil so hard. Let your writing appear nice and clean. If you do so, people will guess you are a student with a good habit.
Drawing can improve your handwriting. You need to use the skills to control your pencil better while you are drawing pictures. Even though you have no chance to draw at school, you can practice by yourself at home.
Handwriting is very important. Imagine you are a world-famous movie star or a well-known sports player, what do you do when your fans run up to you? Give them your autographs, of course.
41．If we write English words too quickly, they may ________.
A．be hard to read B．be written properly
C．be more beautiful D．appear nice and clean
42．The fourth paragraph mainly tells us ________.
A．how to write your English B．how to write in the right size
C．how to hold the pencil right D．how to make fewer mistakes
43．The passage gives us ________ suggestions.
A．3 B．4 C．5 D．6
44．The underlined word “autographs” in the last paragraph is a kind of ________ handwriting from himself/herself.
A．note B．article C．composition D．name
45．Which of the following can NOT be learned from the passage?
A．Write English well, you’ll be famous.
B．Drawing pictures can help us write well.
C．It’s important to hold pencils in the right way.
D．We should make use of the lined space on the paper when we write.

Many of us don’t care about the importance of eye care. If you take care of your body, you can surely be healthy. That is why we should give a lot of care to our eyes. Natural eye care should be in a No. 1 place.
There are several causes leading to poor eyesight like not enough food, genes（基因）and aging（老化）. Television, computers and reading are also the causes of having poor eyesight（视力）. If you have to work in front of the computer, it is best to take a rest now and then. Something dirty can cause redness and they will make you feel uncomfortable. It is bad for your eyes, too. If this happens, the best way is to clean your eyes by using cold water. You must also try your best to protect your eyes from harmful things. For example, sunglasses can not only make you look cool but they can also serve as a great way to protect your eyesight from UV rays.
Eating healthy food will do good to your eyesight. Remember that vitamin（维生素）A, C and E are good for your eyes. Try to eat food groups that have these vitamins. And you should do eye exercises because exercise protects your eyesight, too. If a person often exercises and eats the right kind of food, his eyes will stay in good health for a long time.
All above are natural ways of eye care that help us keep eyes healthy. Being happy all the time can be helpful to a person’s eyesight, too. In a word, eye care is very important, no matter how old a person is.
46．________ is the most important way to protect our eyes.
A．Taking medicine B．Natural eye care C．Seeing the doctor D．Being happy all the time

There once lived a young man who thought himself to be poor. One day he went to a wise man to ask how to become rich. The wise man said, “Young man, you are already rich now.”
“But where is my wealth?” the young man asked.
“It is with you. Your eyes are your wealth. You use them to see this world. You use them to see all the beautiful things in this world. Your feet are your wealth. You can go to any place...” the wise man said.
“You call these wealth? But everyone has them.” the young man said.
“These are wealth. What you have now is not what someone else can luckily have. Are you willing to give your eyes to me? I’m willing to give you a lot of money to exchange for them,” the wise man said.
“No, I’m not going to do so! My eyes are important to me!” the young man said.
Everyone is rich. We should treasure our wealth, and take care of it. We should not overuse it because once it is gone, it is gone forever. Remember it is our wealth that we do not want to lose.

There are a lot of things you can do to help your family members and friends. Even little things can brighten someone else’s day.
Ask what you can do to help. Talk to a family or a friend and ask what he most needs help with and offer your services. By offering help before he asks you, you are showing that you care about him.
Listen. Often what people need is simply someone who can listen to them with kindness and without judgment(看法，评论). When someone is telling you about himself, or a hardship(艰难情况) he is going through, don’t only think of your own feelings, thoughts and stories.
Offer to do jobs or chores. When someone is busy, find out what he is too busy to do for himself and help do the chores or job for him. Do something like making a meal and bringing it over to his house during a busy time, so he doesn’t have to worry about feeding himself.
Let them know you’re thinking of them. Sometimes people can feel very lonely. Just send something to let your friend or family member know that you are thinking of him and that he is important to you. It doesn’t have to be a big present. Sometimes small will do.

Mars (火星) is a planet. It is the fourth planet from the sun and is more than 200 million kilometers from it. That is a very long way. Mars is also a very long way away from the earth but sometimes you can see it clearly at night. Most stars are white. Mars is a bit red.
It is not a very big planet. It is about half the size of the earth. The earth has one moon. Mars has two moons. They are called Photos and Deimos.
Long ago, the only way to study Mars was just to look at it. People with good eyes could see somethings but not everything.
Later on, it was easier, because scientists had telescopes. They could see Mars more clearly. They learned much more about Mars this way.
In the 20th century things got even better. First of all we had spacecraft(宇宙飞船). They flew close to Mars and sent back information. Then, they sent spacecraft to fly in orbit (轨道) around Mars. Finally, spacecraft landed on Mars. Maybe one day a man will walk on Mars.
A man named Jamie works for NASA with the team sending a spacecraft to Mars. “We landed a rover(探测车)on Mars” he says. “It is called Curiosity.”
What is a rover? It is a machine that looks like a car. It can move about on Mars. It has cameras to take photos and it sends them back to the earth. It can study the rocks and air of Mars. It sends all this information back to the earth.
46．The underlined word telescopes means ________.
