Disney World was built with children in mind. However, without proper planning, your dream visit to Disney World could become an endless problem. A few tips can help both you and your children enjoy the visit.Disney World needs a great deal of walking, and unless you arrive during the off-season, the lines are often quite long. That’s going to make your children tired and angry. So make sure the kids have comfortable shoes and bring a stroller(婴儿车) if you have a small child. Bring along some snacks such as fruit or biscuits for times when they get angry. As for waits in line, it helps to have a few small toys to keep your children busy.Disney World’s parks all have rides for young children. They also have rides children should not go on – usually because they are not safe. For situations in which adults want to go on a fast ride such as Space Mountain or the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, Disney has a “child exchange” system that allows your group to keep in line together – when you reach the ride, half of the group can take it while the rest stay with the children, then the groups exchange places. Think about each ride carefully and choose those that you feel are best for your children.Nothing is more important than safety inside the parks. Children can easily become lost among the crowded and finding them again may be a toilsome thing. So be careful to keep your children nearby and always watch their location.

28. If a child visits Disney World during the holidays, ___________.

A. he can’t visit all the parks B. he may wait in line for a long time

C. he can go on all rides that he likes D. he may have a comfortable lunch

29. Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word “toilsome” in this passage?

A. hard B. nervous C. fantastic D. quick

30. Where can we most probably find this passage?

A. In a research paper. B. In a school textbook.C. In a travel magazine. D. In a personal diary.

C

“Pull up the window shade, I want to see,” Johnsy ordered, quietly. Sue obeyed. After the beating rain and strong wind that blew through the night, there yet stood against the wall one ivy(常春藤) leaf. It was the last one. It was still dark green at the center. But its edges(边缘) were colored with the yellow.“It is the last one,” said Johnsy. “I thought it would surely fall during the night. I heard the wind. It will fall today and I shall die at the same time.”“Dear, dear!” said Sue, “Think of me, if you won’t think of yourself. What would I do?” But Johnsy did not answer. The next morning, the ivy leaf was still there. Johnsy lay for a long time, looking at it. And then she called to Sue, who was preparing chicken soup. “I’ve been a bad girl,” said Johnsy. “Something has made that last leaf stay there to show me how bad I was. It is wrong to want to die. You may bring me a little soup now.” An hour later she said, “Someday I hope to paint the Bay of Naples.” Later in the day, the doctor came, and Sue talked to him in the hallway. “Even chances. With good care, you’ll win,” said the doctor. “And now I must see another case I have in your building. Behrman, his name is some kind of an artist, I believe. Pneumonia (肺炎), too. He is old and weak. There is no hope for him.” The next day, the doctor said to Sue, “She’s out of danger. You won. Nutrition(营养) and care now – that’s all.” Later that day, Sue came to the bed where Johnsy lay, and put one arm around her. “I have something to tell you, white mouse,” she said. “Mister Behrman died of pneumonia today in the hospital. He was sick only two days. They found him the morning of the first day in his room downstairs helpless with pain. His shoes and clothing were completely wet and icy cold. They didn’t know where he had been on such a terrible night. And then they found a lantern, still lighted. And they found a ladder that had been moved from its place. And oil paints and a painting board with green and yellow colors mixed on it. And look out of the window, dear, at the last ivy leaf on the wall. Didn’t you wonder why it never moved when the wind blew? Ah, darling, it is Behrrnan’s excellent work– he painted it there the night that the last leaf fell.”

31. What can we infer(推断) from the passage?

A. The doctor thought they should let Johnsy go. B. Sue had no idea how to cheer Johnsy up.

C. Johnsy was sorry to have kept Sue busy. D. Behrman was a world-famous painter.

32.Which of the following shows the right order of the story?

a. Johnsy was sent to the hospital. b. Behrman painted the last ivy leaf.

c. Johnsy found herself totally wrong. d. Behrman died of pneumonia.e. Johnsy had strange ideas in her mind.

A. a-b-e-d-c B. e-d-a-c-b C. e-a-c-b-d D. a-e-b-c-d

33.What would be the best title for this story?

A. The Last Leaf B. Kind-hearted Behrman C. True Friendship D. A Life-saving Painting

Find Which Direction Is SouthDo you have a good sense of direction? If not, please take with you a compass. But if you forget to take a compass, you can still find your way.

It’s never a wise idea to believe that the family member who was good at the job of map-reading knows where the family is. You can tell by the troubled look on their faces that nothing on the ground seems to match the map. Never mind. The sun is shining and it’s still morning. If you don’t know the exact time, you can still find out where south is, but you’ll need to be patient.

Find a straight stick and put it in the ground in a place where you can mark its shadow(a dark shape on a surface that is made when something stands between a light and the surface).

Try to position the stick as vertically(垂直)as you can. You can check this by making a simple plumb line(铅锤线). You haven’t got one? OK, use a thread(线) from your clothes with a button(纽扣) tied at the end to act as a weight.

Mark the end of the shadow cast(投射) by the stick.

Wait about half an hour and mark the end of the shadow again.

Keep doing this until you have made several marks.

The mark nearest the stick will represent the shortest shadow, which is cast at midday, when the sun is highest in the sky and pointing to the exact south.

Pick a point in the distance along the line between the shortest shadow and the stick.

That point is south of where you are.

Now you can turn the map, like you did before, and find which way you should be travelling.

34. To find the direction, we have to be patient probably because ___________.

A. it is not easy to find a proper stick B. it is not easy to position the stick

C. it takes hours to make the marks D. it takes hours to mark the map

35. The passage would probably be most helpful to ___________.

A. those who draw maps B. those who get lost

C. those who make compasses D. those who do experiments

36. Which of the following pictures best shows the way of finding the direction of south?

Do you think getting cold can give you a cold? Is it bad to drink milk when you have a cold? Ranit Mishori, a family medicine doctor in Washington, says colds are more common in winter, but not because of low temperatures. The cold weather just means people stay inside more. People like staying together and may get the common cold virus if they shake hands, sneeze(打喷嚏) or cough near one another.Adults generally get two to three colds a year. Children are likely to catch four or five. Dr Mishori says some people wrongly believe they can become protected from colds for the rest of their life once they get the virus one time.There is still no cure for the common cold. But Dr Mishori says there are ways to feel better sooner.If you get a cold, you start taking about two grams of Vitamin C a day. There is evidence(证据) that it might shorten the number of days that you will be having the cold. Dr Mishori says honey, bears’ favourite food, can also help. She says honey seems especially effective(有效的) in children with colds.Have you ever heard the old saying “feed a cold, starve(挨饿) a fever”? Dr Mishori says this is not necessarily a good rule to follow. She says if you have a cold but do not feel hungry, then don’t eat. According to Dr Mishori, you have to drink a lot. You can drink water or you can drink tea – anything that gets into your body. That’s very important.But what about drinking milk during a cold? Mishori says, “Drinking milk during a cold possibly does make you uncomfortable. But clearly if you have a baby and that’s all it drinks, you should not stop giving the baby milk.”
