Being outside sounded like a good idea. Mark went to the same school as Ben. Although they didn’t know each other very well, Ben would see a familiar (熟悉的) face in the camp. Days later, he was at the Winding River Camp. He saw Mark and walked towards him.

“Hi, Ben. I was just looking at the list of activities to choose from,” Mark said. “I think I’m going to try hiking, fishing and canoeing (划独木舟).”

Ben had no time to think about his choices, but he thought that fishing would be a good activity to try first. So they went to the fishing group. After the first lesson, Ben caught a small fish.

Now people have become more interested in comparing the relationship between technologi­cal development and traditional lifestyle. I think traditional skills and ways of life have been in danger because of the modem technology. So we must protect our traditional ones from disappearing.

Although the technology is becoming rich and popular now, there are some bad things about it. It requires people to pay more attention. With hi-tech products like computers or mobile phones, face-to-face communication has been forgotten by most people. They just give a call or send a message to communicate. And more and more things have shown that more people can’t live without the phone. However, it is not good for their health at all. What’s more, modem factories have polluted our Earth. How can we live a healthy life with all kinds of pollution around us?

Since technological development has some bad effects on our lives, it is important to keep some traditional skills and lifestyles. Compared with automatic (自动的) machines, artificial (人造的) products can give human beings more space and inspiration to create. What’s more, the tradi­tional slow-paced lifestyle will avoid too much stress (压力) and be helpful to health.

All in all, our world will become more beautiful if we keep the balance between technology and tradition.

()36. Why does the writer think traditional skills are in danger?

A. Because the technology is developing fast nowadays.

B. Because many new thoughts are appearing in our life.

C. Because people do nothing to protect traditional skills.

D. Because traditional skills themselves don’t look for any improvement.

()37. What does the underlined word “inspiration” mean?

A. The words to punish people.

B. Free time of people.

C. The description of products.

D. New ideas.

()38. What does the writer think of the traditional lifestyle?

A. It has something to do with our health.

B. It will make people become lazy.

C. It is the best way of people’s life.

D. It limits (限制) our imagination.

()39. What can we infer from the passage?

A. All the important traditional skills have already disappeared from our life.

B. Using the mobile phones more often will make people become stupid.

C. People should use the traditional skills more than modem technology.

D. People may have a lot more stress living a life foil of modem technology.

()40. What’s the main idea of the passage?

A. How to protect traditional skills.

B. How the modem technology changes our life.

C. To compare traditional skills with modem technology.

D. The bad effects of the modem technology.

Fasting (禁食) can help people lose weight (重量) quickly and easily. And people even don’t have to take any exercise. Actually, it is not safe. The lost weight during a fasting period is often water weight. It may be got back as soon as one returns to a normal diet.

There are many programs supporting fasting for weight loss. Typically, true fasts where one is having nothing but liquids (液体) do not last more than three days. But fasts where people may eat small meals a day including vegetables and fruit may last longer. However, many people try to use fasting for weight loss without thinking about the known dangers.

First, fasting for weight loss causes a stomachache. If it continues, this can lead to dehydration (脱水). It is important not to exercise while fasting, because the body can’t give you much energy. Blood sugar often drops when you’re fasting as well.

Fasting for weight loss can cause much weight loss in an unhealthy way, and the lost weight will usually just be got back after normal food is eaten again. If one wants to fast, it is better to first check with a health care expert. People with a health problem should not use this method.

41. What is the purpose (目的) of the first two paragraphs?

A. To conclude (总结) the passage.

B. To introduce the topic.

C. To give some examples.

D. To further support the main idea.

()42. Which is a better way to fast for weight loss?

A. Eating a big meal a day.

B. Having only liquids.

C. Taking less exercise.

D. Eating healthy food.

()43. What can we know from the passage?

A. Fasting for weight loss can make people feel energetic.

B. Many people don’t know the dangers of fasting for weight loss.

C. Taking some exercise while fasting will be more helpful.

D. If you have health problems, you shouldn’t fast for weight loss.

()44. What is the writer’s opinion in the passage?

A. Fasting is good for all kinds of people.

B. Exercising is a better way to lose weight.

C. Food control for weight loss is safer.

D. The effects of fasting don’t last long.

()45. In which part of a magazine can we read the passage?

My favourite cartoon is Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf. Pleasant Goat is clever and he runs very fast. Fit Goat is strong and brave. Beauty Goat likes cooking and she is very beautiful. The chief of the village is Slow Goat. He is also the teacher of the goats. Grey Wolf always has many plans to catch the goats but he always fails. I can’t help laughing when he says, “I’ll be back!”

    The cartoon not only makes me happy, but also teaches me to love and help people around me. I like it very much.

lors to help them­selves.
