17．In 1880，fourteen-year-old Matthew Henson loved to hear sailors tell tales of their exciting lives at sea．One day he made up his mind．Baltimore was the nearest large seaport（海港）．The next morning he set out on the forty-mile journey to try to find （16）D on a sailing ship．
In Baltimore，Henson found a job as a cabin boy on a beautiful ship．For the next five years，Henson（17）A around the world．With the help of the ship's captain and other members of the crew，Henson learned mathematics，history，geography，and many other（18）B．
Unable to find work anywhere else，Henson took a job in a （19）Ashop in Washington，D．C．One day in 1887，a man came in to buy a hat．The man，Lieutenant Robert Peary，asked the owner if he knew anyone with （20）Cat sea．Peary would soon travel to South America for the U．S．government．He needed experienced men to go with him．
The shop owner knew about the young man's skills and experience on ocean journeys，（21）Ahe introduced Peary to Henson．Using his map-reading and sailing skills，Henson proved（22）Cto be a worthy and smart seaman．One day Peary told Henson about his real dream：to be the first man to stand on"the top of the world"at the North Pole．He asked Henson to help him make his dream（23）A．
Over the next five years，the two explorers（探險家） made two trips together to the Arctic（北極）．However，they were not able to reach the pole either time．The cold，wind，and ice were（24）Cthan either of them had ever imagined．
In 1908，Peary and Henson were ready to make their final challenge at reaching the North Pole．With four guides，they made a mad dash straight across the ice．Peary's feet were so frostbitten（凍僵的） that he had to be pulled on a dogsled．（25）D April 1909，Henson's instruments showed they were standing at the North Pole．Together Henson and Peary planted the American flag in the snow．

7．Height is just one of the thousands of features that your genes decide．In fact，because you have parents，your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent．If both your parents are tall，then most probably you will be tall，too．But if you have questions about how tall you're going to b e，ask your doctor if he or she can help you find it out．
      But genes don't decide everything．For example，eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to your full potential．Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height．
      No doubt you're wondering how fast you should grow．There's no perfect or right answer．Generally speaking，kids grow about two inches （six centimeters） a year between age 3 and the time when they start puberty．（青春期）．
      Your doctor will know how your growth has been going over the years．How you've been growing up to this point，and what other changes your body may be going through．
       Don't be scared if you have grown a lot in a very short time．Everyone has a growth spurt （高峰） during puberty．The age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for boys．But it can be earlier or later---between 7 and 9 and 15 for boys．
      You'll usually begin to notice that you're growing faster about a year or so after your body starts to show the first changes of puberty．

66．If you want to know how fast and how tall you should grow，B．
A．you should have enough exercise．
B．you can ask doctors for help．
C．you can record your growth during puberty．
67．After reading this passage，we can explainB．
A．how much  sleep time we need．
B．why genes can't decide everything．
C．what healthy diet is．
68．Kids grow aboutCcentimeters your every year from age 3 to puberty．
A.2      B.4    C.6
69．Your height mainly depends on according to the passage．
A．genes           B．diet      C sleep                           
70．Which of the following is not true according to the passage？
A．you may be scared sometimes when you grow too fast．
B．girl's age for starting puberty is usually earlier than that for boys．
C．the time showing the first changes of puberty is never noticed．

8．If your home is like most others，you've probably got a recycling （回收） bin in your kitchen．Good for you．That's the first step to recycling．But there are other things that both parents and kids can do to make recycling work better．
First，what kinds of rubbish bins are in the other rooms of your house？What about in your bedroom？You've probably just got one rubbish bin where everything goes．Bui it's a good idea to place a special bin for recycling paper．Then when it goes full，you can empty it into a larger recycling bin in the kitchen．You can also put a small recycling bin in the bathroom for any useless paper there．
Before you throw an item into the recycling bin，stop and think if you can use that item again．Take plastic items with yoghurt，for example．After eating what's in them，you can clean them and store them in a cupboard，and later you can use them for storing another food item．You can do the same with the glass jars，too．You can also share your recycling advice with your neighbours．
If you decide to put an item in the recycling bin，it's very important to follow this method．If it has food or drink m it，you must clean it before you put it in the recycling bin．It can't be recycled with food still in it．You should place the item under the running water for a few seconds to clean it．This saves time for the workers in the recycling center．Then they can use their time doing more important work．
The last thing to remember is-don't give up!Recycling is a whole life task and you mustn't just do recycling for a month and then return to your old habits．You can also continue to find other ways to recycle．So make recycling your new habit，and get others involved as well!

88．Is it good for you to have a recycling bin in your kitchen？Yes，it is．．
89．Where can you put a small recycling bin for any useless paper？I can put a small recycling bin in the bathroom．．
90．What should you do before you throw an item into the recycling bin？Stop and think if I can use that item again．．
91．Why must you clean the item before you put it in the recycling bin？Because it can't be recycled with food still in it and this saves time for the workers in the recycling center．．
92．How long shall we have the habit of recycling？Recycling is a whole life task
93．What is the passage mainly about？Itis about why to keep a recycling bin （ at home ）and （ some advice on ） how to make recycling work better at home．．

12．Have you wondered why you have two eyes and why they are set close together on the front of your face？The reasons are simple and important．
Your eyes are like two small cameras．A camera catches an image（影像）of an object and records it on film．Similarly，when you look at something，each eye takes in what it sees and sends this image to the back of the eyeball．Because your eyes are set close together，they see the world from about the same height but from a little different angles（角度）．While your right eye sees an object a little to the right，your left eye sees the same object a bit to the left．Working as a team，the eyes send the images to your brain，then your brain puts them together and you see a single image in the centre．
Seeing in stereo means seeing with two eyes working together，which is called stereoscopic sight．This allows you to see the world in 3-D．Seeing depth（深度） helps you to judge how far it is between you and the objects you see，and then adjust（調(diào)整）to the changing angle so that you can see something clearly when you move closer or farther away．If images are coming from only one eye，however，height and width（寬度）-can be perceived．So if you see with one eye，you will geta2-D image，as in a photograph．
Now consider why your two eyes are on the front of your face．Think of other animals just like you．They are all hunting（獵殺）animals，like lions and tigers．This provides a field of sight about 180degree wide，which is called binocular sight．On the other hand，animals that are hunted have eyes on the sides of the head，which provides nearly 360-degree field of sight．However，they don't have stereoscopicsight．It is difficult for them to judge how far a danger is．
With both stereoscopic and binocularsight，humansand hunting animals share the ability to see from side to side and tojudge how far it is from other objects．If you think it would be great to have another kind of sight，perhaps with hundreds of tiny eyes like many insects（昆蟲） do，think again!Each tiny insect eye sees only a tiny part．Besides，what if you needed glasses？Be glad for the eyesight that you have．

52．In Paragraph 2，the writer wants toA．
A．tell us how our two eyes work
B．show the importance of eyes
C．compareour eyes with cameras
D．suggest using two eyes properly
53．The underlined word"perceived"in Paragraph 3meansC．
A．set 
B．taken 
C．seen
D．made
54．In the last paragraph，the writerthinks that"seeing in stereo"B．
A．is similar to the way a cameraworks
B．is an ability humans are lucky to have
C．would be better for a wider field of sight
D．helps people to have better sight than animals
55．What is probably the best title for this passage？A
A．Seeing in Stereo                
B．Protecting your eyes
C．Treasuring your eyes             
D．Seeing with eyes．

9．Many of us don't pay attention to the importance of eye care．It's said that if you take care of your body，then you can be healthy．That is why our eyes should be given a lot of care．Natural eyecare should be put in a number one place．
There are several causes leading to poor eyesight（視力） like not enough food，gene （基因） and aging （年齡增長）．Televisions，computers and reading are also the causes of having poor eyesight．
If you happen to work in front of the computer，it is best to take a rest every once in a while．Something dirty can cause your eyes red and they will make you feel uncomfortable．It is bad for your eyes，too．If this happens，the best way is to clean your eyes by using cold water．You must also try your best to protect your eyes from harmful things．For example，sunglasses are not just fashion but they can also serve as a great way to protect your eyesight from UV rays（紫外線）．
Eating healthy foods will be good to your eyesight．Remember that vitamins （維生素） A，C
and E are good for eyes．Try to eat food groups that have these vitamins．And you should do eye exercises because exercise protects your eyesight，too．If a person exercises regularly and eats the right kind of food，his eyes will stay in good condition for a long time．
All above are natural ways of eye care that help us keep healthy eyes．Being happy all the time can be helpful to a person's eyesight，too．In a word，eye care is very important，no matter how olda person is．
