at ward elementary in winston salem, north carolina, picked up on that and traded in their students desks for exercise bikes as a part of their read and ride program!the read and ride program began five years ago. one classroom has enough bikes for every student in any given class, and throughout the day teachers bring in their students to the room to ride them and read their books. even regular classrooms have one bike in the back of each room for students who just cant sit still to use to help them burn energy in a good way. students love being more active! teachers enjoy seeing students eager to read. parents appreciate stronger, smarter children. headmasters value this effective and cost-free program. “riding exercise bikes makes reading fun for many kids who get frustrated(挫敗的) when they read. thus, they have a way to release that frustration while they ride,” said scott ertl, who started the program. “as we can see, everyone wants to promote literacy and lose weight! but many students who are overweight struggle with sports and activities since they dont want to always be the last or lose with others watching on the playground. on exercise bikes, however, students are able to exert(發(fā)揮)themselves at their own levelwithout anyone noticing when they slow down or take a break.” as it turns out, not only are the bikes helping the students burn calories, theyre also helping them learn better and stay focused. at the end of the school year the school analyzed testing data and found that students that spent more time reading and riding did more than twice as well on reading tests than their fellow students who spent the least time in the program.21. why did the teachers start the read and ride program?a. to get the students out of the classrooms.b. to make the students more active in sports. c. to read effectively in an active way.d. to help the overweight students keep fit.22. according to scott ertl，riding exercise bikes_.a. is the least expensive way for

as a sculptor. but he often felt that his sculptures, which just stood in rich peoples houses for years, lacked a meaningful purpose. so in 201l he decided to put his artistic energies into creating homes to sellnot ordinary homes but small structures built entirely from recycled materials. the thought of creating homes for the homeless didnt occur to him until the year 2013, when a homeless couple asked him for a tarp(防水布). instead of a tarp, gregory offered them something better: a small home with a water tank, a kitchen and a trap for waste. they were so grateful that gregory decided to focus his efforts on helping house the homeless population in his city. and soon his “homeless homes project” was started. before starting a new home, gregory, goes hunting for materials by digging through dustbins. everything he finds is usablerefrigerator doors become house doors; washing machine doors often serve as windows, and the tops of cars become strong roofs. he put wheels at the bottom for users to move their homes around easily. each home takes two to three days to make. so far gregory has donated dozens of homes to the citys most needy. while his small low-cost mobile homes are not the final solution to the problem of homelessness, they are really practical and do provide a warm and safe place for the homeless to stay in. they are simply a way for one man to do something nice for those in need of some help. gregory has written a book titled homeless architecture, where he explains techniques to build those homes and he is now working on weekend workshops. “a lot of people who hear about what im doing want to get involved,” he said. “maybe we can meet someplace and put a couple of homes together.”28. why did gregory turn from making sculptures to creating homes? a. he had no home to live in. b. he had to make more money. c. he lost interest in sculpture. d. he wanted to help the homeless.29. the author mentions the story in paragraph 3 to tell us_. a. gregorys small homes were popular among the homeless b. how gregory got the idea of “homeless homes project” c. the homeless couple asked gregory to produce more homes d. housing the homeless in a city was not an easy task30. what can we conclude from paragraph 4? a. gregory has great trouble hunting for materials for his small houses b. it takes gregory a long time to produce a home c. gregorys work requires imagination and creativity d. everything in the dustbins will be used in gregorys work 31. what can we infer from the last paragraph? a. gregorys project will help more homeless people. b. gregory doesnt need to make small homes now. c. gregorys work will completely solve the homelessness problem. d. a single person can make no difference to social problems. deveryone has got

asleep， your sleeping position shows the real youin a normal night，of course，people frequently change their positionthe important position is the one that you go to sleep inif you go to sleep on your

challenge you, then it doesnt change you. we all need some normal stress in our lives, after all. 36 so challenge the following limits: figure out what youre scared of and do it continuously. if youre a salesman, and youre scared of talking to people personally or over the phone, now, instead of being scared and thinking youll fail, spend at least five minutes a day to pick up the phone and make a call. 37 but dont stop on the first try! eventually, you can look at fear in the eyes and say, “go on, im not scared!” 38 make sure this hobby is not linked to your career; you have to relax and relieve your stress while performing this. some examples might be cooking, sewing, painting and so on. apart from helping you challenge yourself, taking a class for your hobby may also give you extra income. set aside at least nine minutes a day for physical exercise. 39 a simple 9-minute run around your neighborhood can do wonders for yourself. exercise can not only help you maintain your regular weight, but also make you feel better about yourself. travel and allow yourself to be interested in new people. dont just limit yourself to your fellow travelers-try to connect with the service staff. you never know what kind of people theyre going to be. get out of your house or go online right now to book your class. 40 a. you should do it continuously. b. someone may hang up on you. c. you dont need to go to the gym.d. running in the gym may be a better choice. e. start to travel now and learn to challenge yourself. f. take a class for a hobby youve been wanting to develop. g. you can never see any improvement if you stick to your comfort zone.第三部分 英語知識運用（共兩節(jié)，滿分45分）第一節(jié) 完形填空（共20小題；每題1. 5分，滿分30分）in 2012, i had just recovered from a serious illness when i received an invitation to

discovered that _61 (stay) in the cold could help us lose weight. researchers at the university of california found that exposure to the cold increases levels of a protein that helps form brown fat-the type of fat that produces heat and keeps us warm. brown fat burns energy, 62 helps us lose weight. white fat stores extra energy, which results 63 weight gain. the researchers said that because air conditioning and heating give us constant, 64 (comfort) temperatures, our bodys need for brown fat has decreased. they found that: “outdoor workers in northern finland who 65 (expose) to cold temperature have 66 significant amount of brown fat when 67 (compare) to same-aged indoor workers.” the research was conducted on two different control groups of mice. one group was injected with the protein that helps create brown fat. this group later gained 30% less weight after both groups were fed high-fat diets. the researchers say this could be good news in the fight against obesity. people who are obese have 68 (low) levels of brown fat than thinner people. head researcher hei sook sul said, “this protein could become an important target for research into the treatment and prevention of obesity and obesity-related diseases.” she added, “if you can somehow increase levels of this protein, you could 69 (possible) lose more weight even if eating _70_ same amount of food.”第三節(jié)：用詞匯的適當(dāng)形式填空 （共5小題; 每小題1分, 滿分5分）71. the research cannot be completed without _(充足的)funding.72. a hospital administrator has _(辭職) over claims he lied to get the job.73. usually
