BLet me explain a bit by telling you where the challenge came from. I have many things in common with my dad, like music taste a
31、nd sense of humour, but sadly reading isnt one of them. I can happily spend a whole day curled up with a book but my dad cant read a book for longer than about 5 minutes. He reads emails, websites and documents for work, but not books. I think that sitting down to read for just 15 minutes a day is a
32、 good way to relax. Giving yourself a goal or a challenge is a good way to change a habit or achieve something, so why not try to create a new habit of reading?I know lots of people would rather relax on their computers or in front of the TV. Everyone is different and has their own interests, but I
33、think there are lots of benefits from reading, which screen-based activities (games, films, TV) dont have.One thing I personally love about reading, is being transported to another world. I often forget the time or thing that are going on around me! Reading is a great way to switch off before you go
34、 to bed, so you can truly relax. I know you can be transported to a different world in a film or a TV show, but I think books do it better. While watching a film, I often talk to my flat mates, send texts, or paint my nails. A book, on the other hand commands your full attention.Reading gives you th
35、e chance to get to know hundreds of new people! It also teaches you to see things from other peoples point of view, and understand other peoples decisions or opinions. With a book, you can hear everything a character is thinking or feelingyou really can be inside someone elses head!So give it a go!
36、Take 15 minutes when youre waking up, going to bed, eating lunch, or having a coffee. If you read a lot, why not try 15 minutes of an English book, or pass the challenge on to someone else? Good luck, and happy reading.56. What can we learn about the authors father from Paragraph 1?A. He is kind-hea
37、rted. B. He lacks humour.C. He has a gift for singing. D. He doesnt like reading.57Why is the author fond of reading?ABecause she bears too much pressure.BBecause it benefits her a lot.CBecause its the best way to kill time.DBecause she hates to be in front of the TV or computers.58.What is the diff
38、erence between reading and watching TV according to the author?AReading needs more attention than watching TV does.BWatching TV makes one more relaxed than reading does.CReading can widen peoples interest while watching TV cant.DWatching TV brings one to a different world while reading doesnt.59.How
39、 does the author develop Paragraph 4?ABy listing benefits of reading books.BBy showing the urgency of reading books.CBy analyzing various characters in books.DBy stressing the convenience of reading.60. Whats the best title for the text?A. Reading helps to relax. B. Is reading really challenging?CTh
40、e 15 minute reading challenge. DThe gap between my father and me.CDo you remember that story about the little girl who goes to visit her grandmother and meets a big, bad wolf along the way ? Or perhaps you remember the story of the three little pigs who build three houses to protect themselves from
41、a wolf?The reality behind the fairy tales is that people feared wolves. Hunting and killing originating from hatred almost caused the animals to go extinct. Wolves needed a fairy mother - and that is what Brookfield Zoo in Chicago is for wolves and their puppies(幼崽).Being a fairy mother to wolves is
42、 not easy. Brookfield Zoo replaced iron-barred cubicles (小隔间) with safe habitats, which are not merely appealing to the zoo visitor, but more importantly, are contributing to the normal behavior and reproduction of the animals. The wolves have a large area to run and play in, places to hide and slee
43、p in, and hills to climb with lots of grass and trees around them.A fairy mothers job is to make dreams magically come true and part of the magic is being invisible. The people who take care of the wolves hide themselves and the food and toys in places where the wolves can dig them up and find them
44、on their own, so they feel more like they are living in nature.Fairy tales are just stories. Wolves dont dress up as grandmothers, nor have they blown a house down. Wolves arent scary at all, and in fact, they are more afraid of humans than we are of them.The wolves have a great life at Brookfield Z
45、oo. Maybe they will stay at Brookfield Zoo, but it would be nice to see them live back in nature again, too. If we all work together, maybe we can make this fairy tale come true for the wolves.61. What are the two stories used to show?A. Wolves are dangerous to humans.B. People s false impression of
46、 wolves.C. The important role of Brook field Zoo.D. Wolves are a popular subject of literature.62. Which word can best describe the area for wolves at Brookfield Zoo?A. Visitor-interactive.B. Mountainous. C. Remote.D. Natural-looking.63. What s unique about the people looking after the wolves at Brookfield Zoo?A. They are wol
