It was Mary’s birthday. She received a letter from her uncle who was a farmer.

―Dear Mary,‖ the letter said.‖Happy Birthday. I am sending you some chickens as your birthday present. They will arrive tomorrow. I hope you like them. Best wishes, Uncle Toby.‖

Mary was very pleased. She liked eating eggs and she liked eating chicken. ―I can keep the chickens for thier eggs or eat them,‖ she thought.

Lizards(蜥蜴) are unusual, but they can make good pets because most of them are small and easy to care for. They do not make loud noises, and they do not need to go for walks or take baths(洗澡).

Of course, some lizards make better pets than others. One of the most popular lizards in pet stores is the bearded dragon. Bearded dragons are active during the day and do not mind people holding them. Geckos are anther popular pet lizard. They are a little more difficult to care for. Geckos are active at night and need a warm place to live. Like bearded dragons, they can be held by their owners. Both of these lizards can live ten years or more than when they are well cares for. Two lizards that are bad choices for pets are iguanas and chameleons. Iguanas can grow to be almost two meters (nearly six feet), so they need a big space to live in. They can also bite(咬) or scratch（抓伤）their owners. Chameleons do not hurt their owners, but they are quite difficult to care for. While iguanas can live up to twenty years, chameleons do not live very long. Most do not live more than five years.

*bearded dragons, geckos, iguanas and chameleons are different kinds of lizards.

It was Mary’s birthday. She received a letter from her uncle who was a farmer.

―Dear Mary,‖ the letter said.‖Happy Birthday. I am sending you some chickens as your birthday present. They will arrive tomorrow. I hope you like them. Best wishes, Uncle Toby.‖

Mary was very pleased. She liked eating eggs and she liked eating chicken. ―I can keep the chickens for thier eggs or eat them,‖ she thought. When the chickens arrived the next day, they were in a box. Mary was very excited. She took the box off the back of the truck and began to carry it into her garden. However, the box of chicken was very heavy and she dropped it. The box fell to the ground and broke. The chickens all ran out. They ran everywhere—into neighbors’ gardens, into the road, into shops, even into the next street. Mary spent hours trying to find them back to her garden.

A few days later her uncle came to visit her. ―Did the chickens arrive safely?‖ he asked Mary. ―Yes, Uncle Toby,‖ Mary said. ―But I had a lot of trouble with them. I dropped the box. It broke open and the chickens ran everywhere. I spent the whole morning looking for them, ‖ ―Did you find them all?‖ her uncle asked. ―I hope so,‖ Mary replied. ―I caught eleven of them.‖ ―That’s very interesting,‖ her uncle said with a smile, ―because I only sent you six.‖

Lizards(蜥蜴) are unusual, but they can make good pets because most of them are small and easy to care for. They do not make loud noises, and they do not need to go for walks or take baths(洗澡).

Of course, some lizards make better pets than others. One of the most popular lizards in pet stores is the bearded dragon. Bearded dragons are active during the day and do not mind people holding them. Geckos are anther popular pet lizard. They are a little more difficult to care for. Geckos are active at night and need a warm place to live. Like bearded dragons, they can be held by their owners. Both of these lizards can live ten years or more than when they are well cares for.

Two lizards that are bad choices for pets are iguanas and chameleons. Iguanas can grow to be almost two meters (nearly six feet), so they need a big space to live in. They can also bite(咬) or scratch（抓伤）their owners. Chameleons do not hurt their owners, but they are quite difficult to care for. While iguanas can live up to twenty years, chameleons do not live very long. Most do not live more than five years.

*bearded dragons, geckos, iguanas and chameleons are different kinds of lizards.

( )51. This reading is about _________. A. wild animals

B. good and bad pets C. the life of lizards

D. the importance of lizards

( )52. Which is true according to (根据) the passage? It is not hard to care for most lizards. A. All lizards are dangerous to children. B. Lizards are better than dogs or cats. C. Pet lizards need walks and baths

( )54. Of all the lizards, ________ lives the longest. A. a bearded dragon B. a gecko C. a chameleon D. an iguana

( )55. The writer of the passage probably thinks that _______. A. iguanas are not good pets for children B. all lizards are good pets

You may not have heard the words ―freshman fifteen‖ before, but they are important for students who are entering university. A freshman is a first-year college student. ―Fifteen‖ means fifteen pounds –the fifteen pounds added to a student’s weight in his or her first year. There are a number of reasons why first—year university students gain(获得) weight; but it’s encouraging to know that freshman don’t have to add these harmful (有害的) fifteen pounds. Mistakes choosing food

University kitchens serve many kinds of food. Some students choose unhealthy food, because now their parents are not nearby (在身边) to help them choose. Some students visit the kitchen many times while studying. Late at night, some students get harmful fast food such as hamburgers. Students also have less time for walking, running, and doing sports because of their schoolwork. Eating right

If you’re careful, you don’t have to add fifteen pounds. Here are some ideas; ◇Think more about what you eat.

◇Eat plenty of vegetables and healthy meat.

◇Don’t eat desserts(甜点) full of sugar; have fruit after dinner. ◇Try not to eat so much junk food(垃圾食品) while you study. ◇It’s all right to have a little fast food sometimes – but not often. ◇Write down the food you eat.

◇Walk,run,do sports – move and you will feel better!

Remember that the ―freshman fifteen‖ can happen to anyone. Talk to your friends about it. Together, try to eat healthy food and not eat junk food. Walking, running, and playing sports is always more fun with friends. Help each other and you can have a healthy and happy freshman year.

( )56. The main idea of this reading is to _______.

A. get students ready to gain fifteen pounds B. sell healthy food to new students

( )58. Which of these ideas about eating right is not talked about in the reading?

A. Eating vegetables.

B. Mixing(混合) vegetables and fruits. C. Having a little fast food. D. Writing down the food.

( )59. Students eat unhealthy food because _________.

A. their parents aren’t nearby to help B. they want to save more money

C. they don’t want to eat while they study D. they don’t like to eat desserts

World Cup Blog(博客)

Soo Hyun’s Blog Saturday, July 24

My friend Carolina and I arrived in Germany(德国), from London this afternoon for the World Cup. We have tickets for the Australia-Italy game on Monday. Of course, Carolina wants the Italian team to win(she’s from Milan). Not me. Go Australia!

Sunday, June 25

Twelve cities in Germany are hosting the World Cup games. In each city, there is a ―fan test‖ (a place where people can watch the games on large screens for free). There’s also food, music, and dancing. This afternoon, Carolina and I went to the River Main here. Fans everywhere are wearing the colors of their country. It’s a lot of fun. We watched England play against Greece. When Beckham scored the winning goal for England, everyone went crazy! Tonight, we’re meeting Carolina’s friends (they came over from Italy for tomorrow’s game). We are going dancing together. Monday, June 26

Today was the Australia—Italy game. Australia lost in the last minute when the Italians got a penalty kick(点球)（score:1--0）. It was so unfair!!! What a BAD call(判决)! Oh well. It’s just a game, right? Tomorrow we return to London.

Lizards(蜥蜴)are unusual, but they can make good pets because most of them are small and easy to care for. They do not make loud noises, and they do not need to go for walks or take baths (洗澡). Of course, some lizards make better pets than others. One of the most popular lizards in pet stores is the bearded dragon. Bearded dragons are active during the day and do not mind people holding them. Geckos are another popular pet lizard. They are a little more difficult to care for. Geckos are active at night and need a warm place to live. Like bearded dragons, they can be held by their owners. Both of these lizards can live ten years or more when they are well cared for. Two lizards that are bad choices for pets are iguanas and chameleons. Iguanas can grow to be almost two meters (nearly six feet), so they need a big space to live in. They can also bite(咬)or scratch(抓伤) their owners. Chameleons do not hurt their owners, but they are quite difficult to care for. While iguanas can live up to twenty years, chameleons do not live very long. Most do not live more than five years.

You may not have heard the words “freshman fifteen” before, but they are very important for students who are entering university. A freshman is a first-year college student. “Fifteen” means fifteen pounds — the fifteen pounds added to a student’s weight in his or her first year. There are a number of reasons why first-year university students gain(获得) weight; but it’s encouraging to know that freshmen don’t have to add these harmful(有害的)fifteen pounds.

Mistakes choosing food University kitchens serve many kinds of food. Some students choose unhealthy food, because now their parents are not nearby(在身边) to help them choose. Some students visit the kitchen many times while studying. Late at night, some students get harmful fast food such as French fries(炸薯条). Students also have less time for walking, running, and doing sports because of their schoolwork.

Eating right If you’re careful, you don’t have to add fifteen pounds. Here are some ideas:

 Think more about what you eat.

 Eat plenty of vegetables and healthy meats.

 Don’t eat desserts(甜点)full of sugar; have fruit after dinner.
