There are lots of fun-filled ethnic (少数民族的) festivals in our country. Let’s take a look at some of them.
Ethnic Festivals Introductions
March Fair of Bai People The March Fair is the most important festival for the Bai people living in Dali, Yunnan. It starts from the 15th day of the 3rd lunar month and lasts about 7 days. During the festival, people in and around Dali come together for trade. What’s more, they race horses, dance to and sing traditional songs.
Torch Festival of Yi People In Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan, Yi people celebrate the Torch (火把) Festival. It usually takes place from the 24th to the 26th day of the 6th lunar month every year.

People of all ages sing and dance around it.

A recent study suggests that children put on weight during the summer. Researchers discover that hot weather, unhealthy food and playing without a good plan all play a role.
What happens to our children during the summer Before we are able to answer this question, we have to know something about our children at school. During the school year, children have to follow school rules. For example, they must have regular meal times. But this is no longer true in the summer. As far as I know, a lot of children don’t have breakfast or lunch. They just have one huge meal in the middle of the afternoon. This kind of eating behavior surely leads to weight gain. And also, unhealthy food is everywhere. It’s at school, homes and offices. In addition, when parents go to work, children are often left by themselves. They can choose to go outside to play, or do some reading at homes. But most of them just play computer games.
I also want to point out that children’s being overweight has a lot to do with the parents. I advise all parents to watch their own habits. In America, almost 65% of the population is overweight. And two thirds of the children have overweight parents.
59. Which is a reason for children’s weight gain in the summer
A. Stress from parents. B. Stress from school.
C. Hot weather. D. Too much sleep.
60. What do most children choose to do when they are left by themselves
A. Play computer games. B. Read books at home.
C. Go outside and play. D. Help with housework.
61. What is the writer’s suggestion to parents
A. Pay attention to their own habits. B. Spend more time with children.
C. Prepare healthy food for children. D. Mind their own business.
C
In today’s program, we are talking about London underground trains. The quickest way to get around London is no doubt the“tube”, London’s way of saying the underground train. The tube is made up of twelve lines, each bearing(带有) a name and a color on the tube map. For example, the Central Line is red. And as its name suggests, it runs from east to west, taking in central London. The Circle Line is yellow, and is the only line which runs in a complete circle. About 2.5 million people use the tube each day. If you want to travel fast around London, taking the tube will get you to wherever you want quicker than bus or taxi. Trains generally leave every 3 or 4 minutes, less frequently at weekends and late at night. There are maps at each station, as well as inside each train, to make sure that you can see where you are going and that you are on the right train. If you find yourself going in the wrong direction，simply get off at the next station and cross the platform to the other side. Every train will show its direction on the front of the train. So, it is a good idea to look at the train as it is coming into the station.
62. How many tube lines are there in London
A. 2. B. 3. C. 4. D. 12.
63. How are different lines marked on the tube map
A. By shape. B. By color. C. By number. D. By size.
64. What should you do if you find yourself going in the wrong direction
A. Stay where you are. B. Get out of the tube at once.
C. Ask the train driver for help. D. Get off at the next station.
D
Pollution inside homes and other buildings kills more than 4 million people each year. Many people die as a result of breathing smoke or from cooking over wood-powered (由木柴供能的)or coal-powered cookers.
One way to reduce (减少)the number of death is through cookers powered by the sun. Crosby Menzies, a solar power expert in a South African company, described his latest solar cooker — the “Sol-4”. It is four square meters of mirrors, six to eight meters long. It is quite a large cooker.
The Sol-4 works by reflecting light from the sun off large mirrors. The mirrors direct(对准) the light at a cooking pan. Then the light heats the pan with solar energy. Within two minutes, the pan was hot enough to cook sausages and onions. In just four minutes, water can be boiled. That is as fast as cooking with natural gas or electricity.
The cooker is also much “friendlier” than other models because people do not have to stand in the sun to use it. And people can prepare meals without having to collect firewood or spend money on coal. Such individuals would be less likely (可能的) to have breathing illnesses from harmful smoke.
At present, the cooker only works when the sun is shining. But engineers are working on a way to make it work without sunlight.
Each cooker costs about $ 2,000, which is a large amount of money for most Africans. To solve that problem, Crosby Menzies has created a non-governmental organization called Solar Cookers for Africa. It plans to raise money to provide poor people with solar cooking equipment.
65. What is the Sol-4 mainly used to do by people
A. To raise money to help African people in need.
B. To reduce the cost of making solar cookers.
C. To reduce the time of doing the cooking.
D. To reduce the number of death caused by harmful smoke.
66. What does the underlined word “individuals” probably mean
A. People. B. Patients. C. Experts. D. Cookers.
67. Which of the following about the “Sol-4” is TRUE
A. It is six to eight square meters of mirrors.
B. It can work in any weather condition now.
C. It can also run on natural gas or electricity.
D. It is more environment-friendly than other cookers.
68. What is the main idea of this passage
A. An introduction of breathing illnesses. B. An introduction of a new solar cooker.
C. An introduction of solar power experts. D. An introduction of smoke pollution.

Hello, I’m Sarah Brown. I’m here to tell you about my job as a weather forecaster (天气预报员). I’ve been a weather forecaster for a television company for seven years, and two years ago I became head of the weather department which has a staff of eleven. Now, I divide my time equally(平均地) between doing weather forecasting on television and managing the weather department. At thirty years old I’m the youngest ever head of the weather department and the first woman to do the job.
Since our news and weather service go out all around the world, we all take turns to work at night. I prefer not to do the shows when I have to get up at four in the morning. I normally work an eight-hour day and in that time I do ten or twelve forecasts.
Before doing a weather forecast, I study the material on the computer. It is the information I use in my forecasts. There isn’t much time to remember what I have to say, but I’ve never forgotten my words, so I don’t get nervous.
Because I’m on world news, people sometimes recognize me in places really far away. Five years ago, I went to India with my husband. In a small village, an old man took me to have my photo taken with all his family. I also get some lovely letters — one person wrote to say that my smile made her feel happy all day.
69. What did Sarah do two years ago
A. She became a weather forecaster. B. She found a part-time job.
C. She moved to a higher rank(级别). D. She managed to balance work and life.
70. What can you learn from the last sentence in Paragraph 1
A. Sarah is stressed out. B. Sarah feels nervous.
C. Sarah takes pride of herself. D. Sarah feels bored.
71. Which word can best describe Sarah’s program
A. Interesting. B. Educational. C. Popular. D. Awful.
72. What does the underlined word “It” refer to
A. The material. B. The Computer. C. The weather forecast. D. The program.

Wukong, Tiangong, Tianwen … Do you know where the names of Chinese space programs come from
Wukong, the Dark Matter Particle explorer satellite (暗物质粒子探测卫星)，is named after Chinese superhero Monkey King. According to Journey to the West, Monkey King has a pair of sharp eyes which can tell the difference between good and evil. The Wukong satellite is just as sharp-eyed as Monkey King to help scientists search for dark matter in space.
Tiangong, the name of the space station, means “Heavenly Palace”. In Chinese traditional folk stories, this is the home of Tian Di. Now Tiangong Space Station is a home for Chinese astronauts in space. And China welcomes foreign astronauts to Tiangong so that they can work together.
Tianwen, China’s Mars missions(火星任务)，gets its name from the poem Tianwen by Qu Yuan. Qu Yuan is a well-known poet from ancient China. In Tianwen, he raised questions about the sky, stars, nature, myths and the real world, showing his hunger for truth. Perhaps the Tianwen missions will end up answering some of Qu Yuan’s questions. If you look into more names of Chinese space programs, you will find that they all have beautiful meanings. We, the Chinese people, have a long-cherished (珍藏已久的) space dream. So the naming of Chinese space programs is taken very seriously.
73. How many Chinese space programs are mentioned in this passage (不超过5个单词)
74. Where do Chinese astronauts live when they are in space (不超过10个单词)
75. What are China’s Mars missions named after (不超过10个单词)

How time flies! It has been two years since I entered the middle school. I find that some changes have taken place in my life.
The biggest change is that I have become more independent than before. In primary school, my parents used to help me with almost everything. But now things are different. I am used to learning to deal with everything on my own. I don’t depend on my parents so much anymore.
Thanks to my teachers and friends, now I am more outgoing than I used to be. This is another important change in my life. Now I have quite a few close friends at my school. Whenever anyone needs help, we always offer to help out.
As you can see, people sure change. And how happy I am to have these changes because they make me a better person.
