Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）
Instead of studying abroad during college, more and more Chinese teenagers have chosen to do so as early as in high school. Students from China make up about 42 percent of the international students at high schools in the US, according to the latest study by the Institute of International Education. So, what is the main attraction for Chinese high school students to study abroad? What is overseas life like? We interviewed several students. Have a look!
Pan. 15. Moreau Catholic High School in San Francisco, California, US
In the future, I want to go to college in the US. Studying in high school here will help me get used to college life in the future. Also, I want to improve my English. Studying here is not easy. Instead of exams like in China, we have more projects in class. For example, we have to make a PPT about a historical figure and then design a creative item for that person, such as a painting.
Zhao. 15. Unionville High School in Toronto, Canada
For me, experience matters. It’s good to have the experience of living in another country. Unlike other international students, my parents accompanied me, which makes my life here much easier.
In Canada, I have more time to develop my interests. I can choose classes I like. However, taking the entrance examinations to high school and college at home would be great. It’s a shame that I have no chance to do that.
Zheng. 14. Walsh Jesuit High School in Cleveland, Ohio, US
I want to try different cultures and education styles. Two years ago, visited some famous universities in Boston, such as Harvard and MIT. The academic atmosphere(学术氛围) deeply impressed me. Every student seems to spare no effort on academics. I saw students doing morning exercise everywhere and I watched a football game. I found that school life in the US was colourful. So I decided to study in the US.
1.How many international students in American high schools are from China?
________________________________________________________________________

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）
A different kind of alarm clock
When Matty Sallin, 24, was studying art and technology at New York University, he got an interesting task for the final exam: Create something for the ordinary family. He decided to create an alarm clock.
“To get up in time, many people have to use an alarm clock every morning. But the sound of the clock is extremely noisy and unpleasant,” he says. So before he started to design the new clock; he asked different people what they’d like to wake up to in the morning, and lots of them said, “The smell of bacon（培根）.”
So Sallin and his two classmates invented a new kind of alarm clock: a wooden box with a pig face and a digital clock that uses the smell of cooking bacon to wake people up. He explains, “There’s no danger of burning, because I built it carefully. It uses special light bulbs（灯泡） instead of fire for cooking and turns off automatically after ten minutes.” Just a few easy steps are required to set the “alarm”.
“What you do is to put a few pieces of bacon meat inside the box the night before, then you set the alarm,” says Sallin. “If you set the alarm for 8: 00, it will turn on at 7:50 and slow cook for ten minutes under the bulbs. Then the bulbs turn off and a fan blows the smell out through the nose of the pig.”
“So the pleasant smell of bacon will wake you up. There will be no more noisy alarms,” says Sallin. “Then you can open the door on the side and pull the bacon out and eat it.”
When Sallin was a kid, he spent a lot of time making drawings of inventions. “I wanted to make a lift in my back yard and a special tree house,” he says. “But I never really thought I’d become an inventor！”
Sallin got an A for his alarm clock and went on to invent other thing, but people continue to email him every day asking where they can buy his alarm clock. If he decides to produce and sell his special alarm clock, maybe he can build a successful business out of it.
1.What was Matty Sallin？
______________________________________________________
2.How many people worked together on the new alarm clock？
__________________________________________________________
3.How long did it take to cook the bacon？
_________________________________________________________________
4.Why are light bulbs used for cooking bacon instead of fire？
_______________________________________________________________________
5.What’s special about Sallin’s alarm clock？

Answer the questions. (根据短文内容回答下列问题)
“More young people should study Science", Hazel Wallace, a Science teacher from London, said at a conference for young scientists last weekend." More young people should take Science subjects at school and study them at university, "she said." Scientists can change the world and can improve life for everyone. We also need more people who want to teach science and do scientific research."
But there was bad news from Professor George Benson, a research scientist and university Science teacher, who was also at the conference." Science courses at university are very good," he said, "but there’s a real problem with Science teaching in schools. One in three people who teach Physics to 15-and 16-years-olds don’t have a physical degree. Not enough people are studying Science at university and this means that there are not enough science teachers."
Mrs Wallace didn’t agree." It’s true that the number of Science pupils fell between 2000 and 2010."She said ." But now the numbers are rising again. The number of students who take Science subjects at school is much higher now than it was five years ago."
Professor Benson was certain that numbers were still too low and added, "There’s still a problem with science lessons in schools. Most young people think that Science is boring or difficult or both. We have to find ways to interest 12-16 years olds in studying Physics, Chemistry and Biology. Old-fashioned teaching methods have to change, We must spread the news that Science is very important, but it can also be fun."
1.What does Hazel Wallace do?
2.Who was the conference for?
3.The number of science pupils is still falling now, isn’t it?
4.According to Benson, what can teachers do to make Science lessons more interesting?
5.What might be the topic of the conference?
6.Will you choose Science as your major at university? Why or Why not?(Explain in 2-3 sentences.)

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）
Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark, is famous for its biking culture. Its people have biked to work since the 1880s. And recently, it has shown again that it is one of the world’s great biking cities.
For the first time, there are more bikes than cars in the heart of the city, reported The Guardian. It has found 13,100 more bikes than cars in the city center over the past year. In the last 20 years, the number of bikes used has risen by 68 percent.
This is mainly because of the huge efforts（努力）that the local government have made to create a bike city. Since 2005, a large amount of money has been spent on biking, and the city now has several new bridges only for biking and walking.
Bikes are also becoming more and more popular in China. An increasing number of people are cycling instead of driving to school, to their workplace or to tourist attractions. Public bike rental（出租）services have also been introduced in many cities, including Beijing, Hangzhou and Changchun.
The introduction of Mobike, a new public bike rental system-which started in Shanghai in April and came to Beijing on Sept 1-brought the use of bikes to a whole new level. After Scanning（扫描）the QR code（二维码）on the bike, you can ride the Mobike’s orange bikes to your destination. It is far more convenient than the old bike rental system. New payment methods such as Alipay and WeChat are also supported by the service.
Despite this, it’s still not easy to ride bikes in Chinese cities. Because cars usually take up bicycle lanes（车道）,bikers often have to ride next to cars. However, Copenhagen is much friendlier to bikes. Lanes are built to encourage cycling. Traffic lights are timed for bicycle speeds.
For example, Cycle Snake, a high orange bike lane, allows fast bikers to go in both directions. In the mid-afternoon during the summer, bikers can see the daylight between two nearby buildings. It makes riding a bike even more enjoyable.
1.Copenhagen is one of the world’s great biking cities, isn’t it?
__________________________________________________________________
2.Why are there more bikes than cars in the heart of Copenhagen?
Because the local government ______________________to create a bike city.
3.When did Copenhagen began to spend money on biking?

Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)
Every Saturday morning, Helen Myers opens the door of the little library in Ellisville, Illinois. She raises the flag outside, sits down with a book and waits for people to come. “If I have two people come in, it’s a big crowd,” says Myers, 77.
The old lady has kept the library for more than 40 years in an old small building. It all began in June 1966, when Myers opened her library with 400 books from her home shelves. At that time, she took care of a boys’ community service group. “One of the boys noticed that I had a lot of books, and he said, ‘I sure wish we could have a library here in town.’” Myers remembers. That’s all she needed.
Today, people don’t read much. They watch TV and play video games. But that doesn’t stop Myers from opening her library every Saturday to share her love of books. The library has always been Myers’ favorite project. In the 1970s, when the old building was too dangerous to stay in, she began saving money for a new building.
She sells homemade cookies, and the money pays the bills for the library. As the news about the country’s smallest library spreads, donations began coming in. With the donations and her own savings, Myers built Ellisville Library II, which opened in October 2003. The new library has 3500 donated books, new and used.
Many times, Myers opens and closes the library and sees no one. “My daughter said, ‘Mom, why don’t you give up?’” Myers says, “I said, ‘No. Somebody, some day, may read. Who knows? A future president of the United States may come in and get a book.’”
1.The library doesn’t have a lot of readers, does it?
2.How many books did the library have when it opened in 1966?
3.What does Myers do to pay the bill for the library?
4.Why did she need a new building for the library?
5.Where did the money for the new building come from?
6.If you are Myers, what will you do? Why?

And I hope you’ll join me on this journey,” Clinton said
One day before Clinton announced her decision to run, President Barack Obama expressed his support for Clinton.

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）
Quite a few people believe that the phases of the moon（月相） affect the behavior of human and other creatures. That is known as the lunar（月亮） effect. The lunar effect has been around for many centuries. The power of the moon is often used to explain wide range of events, such as human insanity（精神错乱）, and increases in violent crimes and traffic accidents.
According to some traditions, for example, before the coming of modern techniques, surgeons would refuse to operate on the full moon nights because of the in- creased risk of death of the patient through blood loss. The idea behind the lunar effect has even found its way into the news. For example, it has been said that the full moon may have influenced voters’ behavior in the 2000 U. S. presidential election.
Does the moon affect our behavior at all？ Some people say it does. They say the moon causes the tides, so surely that the moon has an effect on people and we our- selves are full of water, too. But scientists point out that the moon only affects unrestrained（不受控制的） waters, such as oceans. The water in our bodies isn’t even comparable. And over fifty years of research has shown nothing to prove the existence of a causative link（因果联系） between the moon and areas such as mental illness birth rates, crime, or accidents.
There is an explanation for why people link the full moon to unusual human behavior. The reason is that people have selective memories. When something unusual happens and there is a full moon, people might notice the moon and think it is to be blamed.
1.What do quite few people believe？
________________________________________________________________________________
2.What is used to explain wide range of events？
___________________________________________________________________________________
3.Why would surgeons refuse to operate on the full moon nights？

4.Scientists hardly agree that the moon affect people’s’ behavior, do they？
____________________________________________________________________________
5.How long has the research on the lunar effect been done？
______________________________________________________________________________
6.Why do people link the full moon to unusual human behavior？
