Footrace(竞走) is a popular activity in the United States. It is not only seen as a competitive sport, but also as a way to exercise, and to donate(捐赠) money to a good cause. Though serious runners may spend months training to compete, other runners and walkers might not train at all. Those not competing to win might run in an effort to beat their own time, or simply to enjoy the fun and exercise. People of all ages, from those less than one year old to those in their 80s, enter into this sport. The races are held on city streets, on college campuses,through parks, and in suburban areas, and commonly 5 to 10 kilometers in length. The largest footrace in the world is the 12-kilometer Bay to Breakers race that is held in San Francisco every spring. This race begins on the east side of the city near San Francisco Bay and ends on the west side at the Pacific Ocean. In 1993 there were 80,000 people running in this race through the streets and hills of San Francisco. In the front are the serious runners who compete to win, and who might finish in as little as 34 minutes. Behind them are the thousands who take several hours to finish. In the back of the race are those who wear costumes just for fun. In 1993 there was a group of men all of whom dressed up like Elvis Priestly. There was a group of firefighters who were all tied in a long line and were carrying a fire-hose(水龙带). One year there was a wedding party in which the bride dressed in a long white gown(长袍) and

the groom wore a tuxedo(晚礼服). They threw flowers to by-standers, and were actually married at some point along the route.

Which of the following is implied by the author? A. Walkers don't compete for prizes. B. Footraces appeal to a variety of people. C. Entering a race is a way to make friends. D.

When I was in my first year of high-school I tried out for my school's basketball team. Although I was very successful in other sports, particularly soccer and baseball, I was only a mediocre basketball player. I remember walking into the gymnasium and feeling shocked when I saw how many people were also trying out. I knew I was a good athlete, but I didn't know if my skill would be as good as the other participants.

Try-outs lasted for four long days. At the end of each day, the basketball coach had a short discussion with each player. He told some of the players to come back for the next day, and told other players that they had not made the team. This is called getting cut. All of us were afraid of getting cut at the end of each practice.

On the fourth day of try-outs there were only twenty kids left. I was one of them, but we all knew only eighteen students would make the team. This day was the most intense day of them all. There were many opportunities to impress the coach but there were so few people that the pressure was very high. I was not one of the best players on the team, so I was especially worried on this last day. At the end of practice the coach told every player to take one shot from the same spot. Many kids missed their shot but mine went in the basket.

After practice we waited as the coach talked to each player. When my turn finally came my heart skipped a beat when I walked towards the coach. My head was spinning when the coach started speaking and I was almost shaking because I was anxious. The coach told me that I had done very well and that he was impressed. However, the team has only eighteen spots and unfortunately none of these would be mine. 104. What is the author's goal in this story? A. To play basketball everyday after school. B. To improve his skill at basketball. C. To join the school's basketball team. D. To play basketball, soccer, and baseball. 105. What does “getting cut” mean? A.

and change frequently. At middle and high school the issue of belonging becomes even more extraordinary and outstanding.

Cliques are small, particular groups of friends who share common characteristics and common interests (music, dress, sports, etc.). Each member is either directly or indirectly connected to other members. Cliques usually refer to groups of girls; however boys are also involved in cliques. There are usually hierarchies(等级) of cliques among teens, from the populars to the losers, and there are often many cliques in schools.

Normal adolescent(青少年的) development often circles around cliques—joining cliques, wanting to join cliques, or being out of cliques. Cliques can have a strong positive effect on self-worth. They provide social occasions and help kids develop a sense of belonging support and protection. Cliques improve self-respect by making kids feel wanted, and they enable the cliques member to develop a sense of identity and to deal with social events around themselves. While, cliques can be opposed to other kids and other cliques. In some cases cliques members can become harmful to outsiders by putting them down using teasing, backstabbing, and even violence. Although girls are socialized to suppress physical displays of violence, it can take the form of intimidating(恐吓人的) behavior. Cliques can pollute individuality and prevent members from mixing with members of other groups. They usually require some degree of agreement in appearance, attitude, or behavior. They can drive away members for no apparent reason, and they can pressure kids into group activities in order to fit in, creating interpersonal cliques and violence.

98. Which of the following statements about the cliques is TRUE? A. Cliques members have different characteristics and interests. B. Once a cliques is formed its members are not changeable. C. Cliques are more popular among boys and girls. D. Cliques help improve children's self-respect. 99. According to the passage, cliques can . A. encourage children to study harder than before B. protect children when they are in danger C. make children have a sense of belonging D. make children desire to be successful

100. The underlined word \\ A. prevent B. permit C. develop D. discover 101. What is the main topic of this passage? A. The positive effect of cliques. B. Why children want to join cliques. C. When the children begin to form cliques. D. What is the cliques and its effects on children. D

Technology is changing the way that many students are learning in school. It's also changing the way that information about students is collected and stored. Schools have always kept record of information about students such as test scores, number of absences, behavior, and school-wide graduation rates. But new technology is making it easier for schools to collect more detailed data(数据) about students. Schools around the country are using digital(数码) tools such as homework sites and apps that record student progress in subjects. Schools can also check and record how students behave in class. Much of this data is collected and stored by the technology companies that create the programs, and not by the schools themselves.

Supporters of these digital programs say that they help teachers and schools to find out areas in which students need help and that the programs make it easier for teachers to plan lessons more effectively. Digital programs are a 21st Century way of recording students' progress. But some parents and educators are worried that the programs may not protect students' personal information. They worry that information about their children is being collected and stored without their knowledge, and could possibly be sold to other companies. \handing off student data to strangers without parents knowing about it,\Leonie Haimson, co-chairwoman of a group called the Parent Coalition for Student Privacy, told TFK. \know what those strangers are going to do with this data and how long they are going to store it for, and that's a trouble.\

At TFK, we are devoted to protecting students' privacy, which is why the TIME FOR KIDS Classroom App does not collect personal information on students. Teachers control student information and give student IDs and classroom passwords. All the information is cleared at the end of the school year.

The government is taking steps to protect students' privacy. Many states, including New York and Virginia, now have laws that limit the sharing of student data with companies. President Barack Obama recently announced new student digital-privacy law. It keeps companies that work with schools from using student information for marketing or advertising purposes.

What do you think? Should tech companies be able to store data on students? Write a 200-word response. Send it to tfkasks4you@timeforkids.com. Your response may be published in a future issue of TIME For Kids. Please include your grade and contact information for your parent or teacher if you want your response to be published. The deadline for responding is Feb. 13th, 2016.

Then, be sure to voice your opinion!

102. The supporters support the digital programs because . A. they are a new way of teaching B. teachers can help students with them C. all the information can be cleared easily D. they can protect students' personal information 103. What is Leonie Haimson's attitude towards the digital programs? A. Doubtful. B. Optimistic. C. Curious. D. Supportive. 104. Who is the passage written for? A. Teachers. B. Educators. C. Parents. D. Students. 105. What is the best title for the passage? A. Do We Need Tech Companies? B. How to Protect Students' Privacy? C. Should Tech Companies Collect Students' Personal Data? D. Why Are Parents and Educators Worried About Digital Programs? 八、短文7选5(5选5等)(共5小题;共10分)

As is known to all that millions of graduates crowded into the job market each year. But because the financial crisis, the situation of the employment has become very serious. Consider this, some people suggest graduates should have a lower career expectation, such as working in the western area of China. I in favor of this idea. Firstly, compared with the big cities, the competition is not as fierce there, but graduates can easy get a job. Secondly, the lower position may offer graduate more space.

Next Thursday is the World Book Day—a celebration of all things wonderful about books for all ages, with author events, school fancy-dress parades and a£1 book token(优惠券) given

to all schoolchildren under 18.

Sometimes, reading a modern novel can be tough (Booker Prize-winner The Luminaries ran to 832 pages!), especially if you lack confidence in your literacy skills. In fact, one in six people in the UK never pick up a book because they've experienced difficulties or are out of the habit of reading for pleasure.

But the Galaxy Quick Reads series are designed to introduce reluctant readers to bestselling short funny novels, which bring the joy of reading without demanding hours of concentrated time. They cover a range of subjects, from romance to comedy.

You can read Jojo Moyes's Paris for One, a romantic adventure in which 26-year-old Nell books a weekend away to Paris with her lazy, neglectful boyfriend. When he fails to turn up, she is alone in the city. That is, until she meets Fabien, who shows her the charms of the French capital—in more ways than one.

Meanwhile, Adele Geras's moving story Out in the Dark was set in World War I, in which young Rob came back from the battlefields. Determined to find the officer's widow to return the photo of her and their daughter that the captain kept with him, he traveled several thousand miles but never gave up. Dead Man Talking is a fantastic tale of Pat, who had a terrible fight with his best friend, Joe, ten years ago—but now hears that Joe is dead, and he must attend his funeral. But Joe is not going quietly that good night—he's lying in his coffin being very chatty indeed. 101. What will happen on the World Book Day according to the poster? A. Schoolchildren will be given fine clothes as gifts. B. The authors of books will attend some events. C. Experts will encourage people to write their novels. D. There's a range of books that are priced at just £1. 102. If you are interested in a horror story, you may choose . A. Galaxy Quick Reads B. Paris for One C. Dead Man Talking D. Out in the Dark 103. The passage is mainly about . A. recommendation of good books to readers B. the history of the World Book Day 2015 C. advice on how to get cheap books D. a plan to develop the habit of reading among adults B I used to think of myself as a person learned in books, but my bookshelves told a different story. Apart from a few Indian novels and an Australian book, my literature collection only consisted of British and American titles. Worse still, I couldn't ever found anything in translation. My reading was limited to stories by English-speaking authors.

So, at the start of 2012, I set myself the challenge of trying to read a book from every country in a year to find out what I was missing.

With no idea where to get those books, I was unlikely to find publications from nearly 200 nations on the shelves of my local bookshop, so I decided to ask the readers all over the world for help. I created a blog called A Year of Reading the World and put out an appeal for suggestions of titles that I could read in English. The response was amazing. People all over the world were getting in touch with me, offering ideas and book lists. Some posted me books from their home countries. In addition, several writers, like Turkmenistan's Ak Welsapar and Panama's Juan David Morgan, sent me unpublished translations

of their novels, giving me a rare opportunity to read works unavailable in Britain. Even with such an extraordinary team of bibliophiles(爱书者) behind me, however, sourcing books was no easy task. With translations making up only around 4.5 percent of literary works published in the UK, getting English versions of stories was tricky.

One by one, the books from the countries on the list filled my heart with laughter, love, anger, hope and fear. Lands that had once seemed exotic and remote became close and familiar to me. At its best, I learned, reading makes the world real.

104. The author realized she was not a learned person when she found . A. she could do nothing but read books B. she had never been to Indian and Australian C. she didn't have any translated books D. she could only read simple English stories

105. Which of the following is NOT the help from people around the world? A. Offering book names. B. Posting local books. C. Giving financial supports. D. Sending unpublished translations.

106. We can infer that by reading the books from other countries, the author feels . A. bored and regretful B. thankful and pitiful C. calm and peaceful D. satisfied and rewarded C

In 1770 when I was a child, I was always at Wuthering Heights, because my mother was a servant with the Earnshaw family. They are a very old family who have lived in that house for centuries, as you can see from their name on the stone over the front door. I grew up with Catherine and Hindley Earnshaw, and we three played together as children.

One day, their father Mr. Earnshaw came back from a long journey. He had travelled sixty miles to Liverpool and back on business and was very tired.

“Look what I've brought you!” he told us all, unwrapping something he was holding carefully in his arms. Catherine and Hindley were expecting presents, and they rushed eagerly to see what it was. They were very disappointed to see only a dirty, black-haired gipsy(吉卜赛) child.

“I found him all alone in the busy streets of Liverpool,” Mr. Earnshaw explained to them, “and I couldn't leave him to die. He can sleep in your room.” But Hindley and Catherine were angry because they had not received any presents, and refused to let the strange child share their room. However, Mr. Earnshaw insisted, and little by little the boy became accepted by the family. He was called Heathcliff, as a first and last name. No one ever discovered who his parents had been.

Catherine and he became great friends, but Hindley hated him, and was often cruel to him. Old Mr. Earnshaw was strangely fond of this gipsy child, and frequently punished his son for behaving badly to Heathcliff. Hindley began to hate his father's feelings for Heathcliff, and saw them both as enemies.

This situation could not last. As Mr. Earnshaw grew old and ill, Heathcliff became even more his favourite, and Hindley often quarrelled with his father. When Hindley was sent away to study, I hoped that we would have peace in the house. But then it was that old servant Joseph who caused trouble. He tried to persuade his master to be stricter with the children, and was
