    What does it take to graduate from university? Some papers or high scores in exams? Well, these are not enough if you are a student at Tsinghua University.

    According to a new rule of the university, students must prove (证明) themselves in the swimming pool. They need to pass a swimming test of at least 50 meters, and those who fail the test will be required to take a swimming course throughout their school years. By the time they graduate, they will have known how to swim; otherwise they can’t graduate with their bachelor’s degrees (学士学位).

    The news made waves in Chinese social media (媒体). Some people praised the university for requiring a necessary skill that can save lives, and they also believed that the rule would help improve students’ health. However, others questioned if it was fair to expect those who come from inland cities (内陆城市) to be able to swim.

    In fact, this is not a new rule. Tsinghua University first made swimming a requirement in 1919 but later gave it up because the number of students became too large and there were not enough swimming pools in the school for them to learn swimming.

    Anyway it is still good news that Chinese students’ health has become more and more valued. Why not just take this chance to learn one more life-saving ability?

    12. According to the passage, what does it take for a student to graduate from Tsinghua university?

    A. Some papers.                               B. High scores in exams.

    C. Passing a swimming test.                   D. All of the above.

    13. The underlined phrase “made waves” in Paragraph 3 most probably means _________.

    A. caused a heated discussion                 B. spread widely

    C. made a requirement                         D. proved the rule

    14. Why did Tsinghua University once give up the rule?

    Because many students failed the swimming test.   

    Because some people disagreed with the rule.

    Because there were too many students.

    Because there were not enough swimming pools.

    A. ①②                B. ②③                C. ③④                D. ①④

    15. What is the passage mainly about?

    A. Different people hold different opinions about a new rule.

    B. Tsinghua University has made a new rule of graduation.

    C. Chinese students’ health should be more and more valued.

    D. There is a new chance to learn another life-saving ability.

    Earlier this year, China achieved a new milestone(里程碑) in space exploration. On Jan 3, Chang'e 4 became the first space probe(探测器) in history to successfully land on the far side (dark side) of the moon. After a 26-day journey, it touched softly down on a crater. The whole process of landing lasted 12 minutes, which opened a new page in history of mankind's space exploration.

    The far side of the moon is the side that we can not see. We don't know much about it. This landing is of great importance.

The success of the Chang'e 4 mission (任务 )  is a major achievement for China's space program.

    China launched its lunar (月球的 ) exploration program in 2004, naming it Chang'e. Chinese scientists set three goals—“orbiting (环绕运行 )  , landing and sample (样本 ) returning”. Chang'e 4 has realized the second goal. The third will be achieved during the Chang'e 5 mission, which is set to take place before the end of this year.

    Following the success of the Chang'e missions, Chinese scientists are looking even farther into our solar system  (太阳系 )  . China's first Mars mission is expected to be carried out by 2020.

    A. in deep space                              B. on the moon

    C. on the near side of the moon               D. on the far side of the moon

    32. What's the most important about the landing place?

    A. It's far from the earth.                   B. It has many resources.

    C. It's ideal for scientific research.        D. It's dark and unknown.

    33. The underlined word “observations” in paragraph 2 means________.

    A. 学习                B. 观察                C. 描述                D. 庆祝

    34. Which of the following is the second goal of China’s lunar exploration grogram?

    A. Landing on the moon.                       B. Bring some samples back to the earth.

    C. Building a base on the moon.               D. Travelling around the moon.

    The hot movie Better Days has raised public discussion about how to deal with bullying(欺凌).

    Bullying is really common. About 1.5 million young people in the UK were bullied last year, and many of them were bullied every day. People who are bullied have more worries and scares.

    Bullying is not just physical, including hitting or kicking someone, or taking their things without permission(许可).Bullying can also be with words —— saying or writing things that are not nice to hurt others. Another type of bullying is social — telling other people not to be friends with them. Bullying can happen anywhere.

    Sometimes other people help the bully happen or join in. They don't bully anyone directly but support the bullying by laughing or encouraging the children. This is why it s important for everyone to work together against bullying. To stop bullying, we need everyone to be brave and help stop it.

    Bullying is a social problem and it needs to be solved from society — in other words, everyone. Why don't you create a student anti-bullying(反欺凌)group? Let the head teacher know how well the school is doing with fighting bullying. The next time you see someone being cruel to someone else, take a stand(表明立场)! Don’t laugh or ignore (忽视)what' s happening — tell an adult as soon as possible and help everyone to realize that bullying is not OK.

    Bullying at school

    Several years ago, a television reporter was interviewing three of the most important people from local businesses. One was a very rich banker, another owned one of the largest companies in the world, and the third owned many buildings in the center of New York.

      The reporter was talking to them about being important.

      “How do we know if someone is really important? the reporter asked the banker.

      The banker thought for a few moments and then said, I think anybody who is invited to the White House to meet the President is really important.

      The reporter then turned to the owner of the very large company. Do you agree with that? she asked.

      The man shook his head, No. I think the President invites a lot of people to the White House. Youd only be important if while you were visiting the President, there was a telephone call from the president of another country, and the President said he was too busy to answer it.

      The reporter turned to the third man. Do you think so?

      “No, I dont. he said. I dont think that makes the visitor important. That makes the President important.

      “Then what would make the visitor important? the reporter and the other two men asked.

      “Oh, I think if the visitor to the White House was talking to the President and the phone rang, and the President picked up the receiver, listened and then said, its for you.’”

     阅读理解 阅读下面四篇材料, 从每题所给的ABCD四个选项,选出最佳选项。

    On May 23, Shenzhen introduced tough new rules in order to discourage the “Chinese style of crossing the road”. “Chinese people cross roads without thinking about traffic lights, so long as they are part of a crowd,” said a post on Sina Weibo.
        A CCTV news program showed that in only an hour, more than 600 people jumped red lights when crossing a road in Shijiazhuang, Hebei.
        Many people say that they jaywalk (
    乱穿马路) because the red light lasts too long. Such an opinion is supported by a research team at Tongji University. The team did research on people’s waiting times at different road crossings for three years. They found that Chinese people would wait for 70 to 90 seconds before they lost their patience. “People are likely to ignore (忽视) the light when the waiting time is longer than they can bear,” said Ni Ying, a member of the research team.
        However, a survey on Sina Weibo suggested that people jaywalk mainly because they ignore rules. “I always obey traffic rules. Time is important but safety should come first,” someone wrote on his Weibo. 
        Many countries give out punishments to jaywalkers. In Singapore, the maximum can be three months in prison. Some Chinese cities have started taking some actions, too. For example, the first three people in a jaywalking group will be fined 50 yuan in Shijiazhuang.
        But calling on people to respect rules is more important. To completely solve the problem, everyone should realize the importance of obeying the traffic rules.
    1. Which of the following is the “Chinese style road crossing”?
       A. To cross a road slowly.
       B. To follow the basic traffic rules.
       C. To wait for the traffic light to turn green.
       D. To cross roads without looking at traffic lights.
    2. What does the phrase “the team” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
       A. A CCTV news program.              B. A research group at Tongji University.

       C. A post on Sina Weibo.                D. A daily newspaper.
    3. How long will Chinese people wait for to cross the road before they lose patience?
       A. About five minutes.                    B. Less than one minute.
       C. Less than one and a half minutes.       D. More than ten minutes.
    4. Why do people jaywalk according to the survey on SinaWeibo?
       A. Because people don’t pay much attention to rules.
       B. Because there are too many people on the road.
       C. Because the red light lasts too long.
       D. Because people have less patience.
    5. The writer suggests that we should __________ to solve the problem of jaywalking.
       A. punish the jaywalkers       B. reduce (
    减少) the time of red lights
       C. ignore the traffic rules       D. call on people to obey the traffic rules

        A new study warns that about 30% of the world people may not have enough water by the year 2025.

        A private American organization called Population Action International (PAI) did the new study. It says more than three hundred and thirty-five million people lack (缺乏) enough water now. These people live in twenty-eight countries. Most of the countries are in Africa or the Middle East.

        PAI researchers Robert Engelman says by the year 2025, about three thousand million people may face water problems. At least 18 more countries are expected to lack enough water. The need for water keeps increasing. Yet the amount(数量) of water on the earth stays the same. The report says lack of water in the future may cause several problems. It may increase health problems. Lack of water often means drinking water is not safe. Mr. Engelman says there are problems all over the world because of diseases, such as cholera, which are carried in water. Lack of water may also lead to more international conflict(冲突). Countries may have to fight for water in the future. Some countries now get sixty percent of their water from other countries. This is true of Egypt, the Netherlands, Cambodia, Syria, Sudan, and Iraq. And the report says lack of water would influence the ability to improve their economies(经济). This is because new industries often need a great amount of water when they are beginning.The Population Action International study gives several solutions to the water problem. One way, it says, is to find ways to use water for more than one purpose. Another way is to teach people to be careful not to waste water. A third way is to use less water for agriculture.The report also says a long-term solution to the water problem is to control population growth. It says countries cannot provide clean water unless they slow population growth by limiting the number of children people have.

    This report shows something of home computers used by a group of young people . It is a common idea that children today know about computers and have a good knowledge of using them in all sides of their lives .

    We decided to try to find out whether this was true .

    We asked thirty young people between 14 and 18 . All the children said they had computers at home . We asked them how much time they usually spent on their computers in a week , but we were most interested in what they used their computers for.

    The average time spent on a computer in a week was 12 hours , with the highest user about 30 hours and the lowest user only 5 hours . There were no differences between boys and girls .

    All the children said they usually used their computers to play games . Fourteen told us they did some word-processing(文字处理)at home , but not very much . Only three of them said that computers helped them with their studies , and nine people told us that they kept addresses and telephone numbers on their computers , or used them as diaries . Only four people said that they were learning to make programmes , and nobody looked up date-bases(数据库)(other than their address list. None of the people used their computers for any other use . The diagram(图表)below gives all the results one by one .

    On May 23, Shenzhen introduced tough new rules in order to discourage the “Chinese style of crossing the road”. “Chinese people cross roads without thinking about traffic lights, so long as they are part of a crowd,” said a post on Sina Weibo.
        A CCTV news program showed that in only an hour, more than 600 people jumped red lights when crossing a road in Shijiazhuang, Hebei.
        Many people say that they jaywalk (
    乱穿马路) because the red light lasts too long. Such an opinion is supported by a research team at Tongji University. The team did research on people’s waiting times at different road crossings for three years. They found that Chinese people would wait for 70 to 90 seconds before they lost their patience. “People are likely to ignore (忽视) the light when the waiting time is longer than they can bear,” said Ni Ying, a member of the research team.
        However, a survey on Sina Weibo suggested that people jaywalk mainly because they ignore rules. “I always obey traffic rules. Time is important but safety should come first,” someone wrote on his Weibo. 
        Many countries give out punishments to jaywalkers. In Singapore, the maximum can be three months in prison. Some Chinese cities have started taking some actions, too. For example, the first three people in a jaywalking group will be fined 50 yuan in Shijiazhuang.
        But calling on people to respect rules is more important. To completely solve the problem, everyone should realize the importance of obeying the traffic rules.

    根据材料内容选择最佳答案,并将其标号填入题前括号内。

    3. How long will Chinese people wait for to cross the road before they lose patience?
       A. About five minutes.                    B. Less than one minute.
       C. Less than one and a half minutes.       D. More than ten minutes.
    4. Why do people jaywalk according to the survey on SinaWeibo?

       B. Because there are too many people on the road.

    According to scientists’ research, the month in which babies are born could affect them in some ways.

    Babies born in spring get sick easily. Children born under Aquarius (Jan. 21st—Feb. 19th) may be less clever than those born in other seasons. They may also have shorter lives than those born in autumn. Scientists believe many of the differences can be explained by the mother’s exposure to sunlight in pregnancy (怀孕). Sunlight helps lead to the production of vitamin D in the body. The lack (缺乏) of vitamin D in the first months of life may have a bad effect on health.

    Vitamin D is called the “sunshine vitamin”. It has a good effect on health. A study showed that people born from April to June had slightly shorter lives than those born in October, November or December. Similar studies in the US showed that people born in autumn lived about 160 days longer than those born in spring.

    Professor Russell Foster said the conclusions were surprising and interesting. He added, “These are small effects but they are very, very clear. I am not giving voice to star signs and they are just for fun. But it is true that we are affected by our season of birth.”

    (  ) 1. A child’s season of birth can affect all the following things EXCEPT     according to the first two paragraphs.

             A. his health   B. his height  C. his length of life   D. his quality of being clever

    (  ) 2. What does the underlined word “exposure” mean in Chinese?

             A. 偏爱           B. 抗拒          C. 过敏          D. 暴露

    (  )3. What can we know about vitamin D according to the passage? 

             A. It comes from sunlight.               B. It helps people live longer.

             C. Sunlight prevents its production.         D. It does harm to people’s health.

    (  ) 4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

             A. Women should get enough sunlight in pregnancy.

             B. Children born under Aquarius are cleverer than those born in autumn.

             C. People born in May will live longer than those born in October.

             D. Professor Russell Foster is interested in star signs and believes in them.

    (  ) 5. What does the passage mainly tell us?

             A. People can know the length of life by star sign.

             B. Women should choose to give birth to children in spring.

             C. A child’s season of birth has an effect on him or her.

    D. Vitamin D is very important to people’s health.
