Having Fun “Growing” and “Stealing”

Recently, an Internet game has become a new fashion among young office workers and students. People can “farm” on a piece of  “l(fā)and” and “grow”, “sell” or even “steal” “vegetables”, “flowers” and “fruits” on the internet.
They can earn some e-money and buy more “seeds”, “pets” and even “houses”.
Joyce interviewed some young people. Here are their opinions.
Harold：I don't quite understand why they are so mad about the childish game, maybe they are just not confident enough to face the real world.
Allan：I enjoy putting some “bugs” (臭蟲(chóng)) in my friends’ gardens and we’ve become closer because of the game. Having fun together is the most exciting thing about it．
Laura：You know, people in the city wish for the life in the countryside. It relaxes my work pressure; besides, it gives me the exciting experience of being a “thief”.
Ivy： Well. It’s just a waste of time. Teenagers playing the game spend so many hours on it that they can not concentrate on their study.      
小題1:According to the passage, people can’t ______ things in this game.   
A．grow                     B. borrow                   C. steal

閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)所讀內(nèi)容，在文章后第56-65小題的空格里填入一個(gè)最恰當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~。
注意：每個(gè)空格只填一個(gè)單詞 
People visit other countries for many purposes. Some travel on businesses; others travel to visit interesting places that are only found in other countries.
Wherever you go, and for whatever purpose, it’s important to be safe. A tourist can attract a lot of attention from local people. While most people you meet when travelling are sure to be nice, there are dangers—theft being the most common. So prepare for your trip in advance.
As you prepare for your trip, make sure you have the right paperwork. You don’t want to get to your destination （目的地）only to find you have the wrong visa, or worse, that your passport is about to expire (到期). Also, make sure you travel with proper medical insurance, so that if you are sick or injured during your travels, you can be treated. If you want to drive while you are abroad, make sure you have an international driver’s license.
If you need to take medicine with you—such as travel-sickness pills—keep it in its original container（容器）. If you don’t, you may find yourself doing a lot of explaining to customs officials at your destination.
Buy a guidebook and read about the local customs of the country you are going to. Also, try and learn a few basic words and phrases—don’t assume that the local people will speak your language.
When you get to your destination, you’d better use official transport. Always go to the bus and taxi stands, don’t accept rides from strangers who offer you a lift. If there is no meter in the taxi, agree on a price before you get in. If you prefer to stay in cheap hotels while travelling, make sure you can lock the door of your room from the inside. If you are travelling with valuables such as jewelry, or a lot of money, you should ask about a safe for storing them in. Finally, remember to smile. It’s the friendliest and most sincere form of communication, and is sure to be understood in any part of the world!

請(qǐng)閱讀下面的這篇文章，根據(jù)所提供的信息，完成信息卡，把答案寫(xiě)在答題卷指定的位置上。
As a student, you must have homework every day. How do you deal with your homework? When do you usually finish your homework? Here is some advice for you to help you finish your homework well.
Homework should be done as soon as you get home from school. If you have after-school activities, the homework should be done first. At the same time, it is fine to allow for a snack break and also to allow for stretching(伸展) breaks.
Also, you should remember that it is your duty to do your homework. Don’t depend on Mum and Dad for help. Please try to find the answer yourself because you will learn much more that way.
When you have a question, especially something about a science or maths, don’t always turn to your teacher! It is a good idea to try to find the answer yourself. If this doesn’t work, you can also look at your textbooks carefully. They may help you understand the problem.
Finally, while doing homework, don’t think about or do other things. Keep working. Setting a time limit(限制) often helps with this. Different ages decide different amounts of time. 10-15 minutes is good for a child that’s aged 6-8. A time of 20-30 minutes is about right for a child aged 9-12. Kids can keep studying for 30-45 minutes at the ages of 13-15. This, of course, depends on your ability to pay attention and stay on tasks.

A 14-year-old British student is packing for the next day of school: textbooks, notebooks, pens, 250 grams of flour, an egg and some cooking oil. Wait, what?
It’s not a joke.
From September, cookery will be a compulsory (必修的) course for kids aged 7-14 in the UK.
Primary school students will learn how to put things together and make simple, healthy food.
At high school, students will then master a number of different meals. They will also learn some cooking skills including baking.
Britain is sometimes known as a country with bad food and unhealthy eating habits. These new courses are part of the country’s effort to bring healthy food back onto the table.
“One in four British families no longer has a table that everyone can eat around. One out of every two meals we eat is eaten alone. Only four out of ten of us enjoy eating meals with our children,” British writer Joanna Blythman wrote in her book Bad Food Britain: How A Nation Ruined Its Appetite (食欲) in 2006.
Instead, ready meals have become the first choice for many British kids, because their parents are often too busy to cook a proper meal.
The Department for Education hopes that the cookery courses can introduce children to good food and reduce childhood obesity.
“It’s important that children can develop an interest and understanding of good food,” said a spokesman for the department.
“We want to encourage them to develop a love of food and cooking that will stay with them as they grow up.
小題1:Students under 14 in the UK _______.
A．a(chǎn)re fond of cooking
B．love to eat junk food
C．will learn how to cook at school
D．have to prepare breakfast by themselves
小題2:From the passage, we can learn that _______.
A．many British people have unhealthy eating habits
B．people in Britain don’t love to eat around the table
C．parents cook meals for their kids although they are busy
D．many British people don’t like to eat with their families
小題3:The aim of the cookery course is to help children _______.
A．have a good appetite B．learn more life skills
C．learn to do housework at home D．enjoy eating and cooking healthy food
小題4:The underlined word “obesity” in the passage means _______ in Chinese.
A．厭學(xué)B．懶惰C．肥胖D．貪玩
