17．Have You Planned Three Things to Do Before You Are 18？
I know most of us have a long way to reach an adult．At present，are you bored with your daily life？Here are some things you should try before you are 18，because after that it's too late．
Learn to swim
Seriously，this is so important that it can save your life．If you can't swim well，you won't be able to do water sports like waterskiing，surfing and diving．Even taking a boat trip will be dangerous for you．Make sure you do it．
Try at least one kind of team sports
Being a good team player is an important skill in life．You can't just think of yourself，but have to work well with other people．Other advantages of team sports like basketball，football and baseball are that they keep you fit and healthy，and they are also great fun．Teams usually have a good social life too-you'll go to lots of parties and make many friends．
Collect something
One of the best hbbies for under-18s is collecting things．You could collect kinds of stamps，or you could cllect things that make you remember what you have done，like cinema tickets for films you have seen or emails from friends．The best way to collect is to have a special album to put your collection in and to write what each thing means to you．That way you won't forget．

51．The most important reason for learning to swim is thatD．

B．it can make you healthy
C．you might easily do lots of things

A．collect something
B．do some water sports
C．camp out in the garden

55．The passage is mainly aboutC before yu are 18．
A．good habits to keep

7．Undoubtedly，it's always a happy moment to get some pocket money．But have you ever thought about how to spend your pocket money wisely？Now let's check out the following tips and learn to spend your money in a b（81）etterway．
Make a list
When you get your pocket money，don't get too happy and impulsive（沖動的）．We all have a lot of things that we want．But do you really need them that much？That's why it is suggested making a list before spending money．Start with the thing you want m（82）ost．You can also write down about how much it costs or how important it is in your life．By doing this，you will see if it is n（83）ecessaryto buy it．
Help others
How about being more selfless and using our pocket money to help others？We all know that there are many people in the world who are in e（84）agerneed of our help．Helping others brings out the best in us and is one of the greatest joys in our lives．So consider using your pocket money to do something useful and helpful，to feel how you can make a d（85）ifference．
Save as much as you can．
There is an old saying，"Money doesn't grow on trees．"If you spend all your pocket money all at once，you'll have no money u（86）ntillyour next"pay day"．Wallets sometimes might not be the best place to save as they tempt you into spending your money．Get a piggy bank or ask your parents to start a savings account for you．Someday when you look b（87）ack，you'll get a strong sense of achievement by saving so much by yourself!Just remember，every penny counts．

8．Does this ever happen to you？Someone introduces you to a friend，you hear his or her name，and then two minutes later，you forget it．Or you go to the same restaurant every day and the owner always says"Hello"to you but you can never remember her name．If this happens，you are typical-actually most people have the problem remembering names．
Here are some ways that can help people remember names．
※Repeat the person's name loud at least three times while you talk together．For example，instead of saying"Nice to meet you．"say"Nice to meet you，Jack （for Sue or whatever the person's name is）．"Instead of saying"Where do you live？"you can say"Where do you live，Jack？"
※Introduce the person by name to someone else right away．
※Write the name down （with a little information about the person） as soon as possible．
There are other ways which may seem a little strange．However，try them．
※Think of a story using the person's name．For example，think to yourself，"Jack has a nice jacket．"Imagine Jack in a nice jacket．
※Think of a rhyme（押韻）for the person's name．For example，think to yourself，"Jack would look nice in black．"Imagine Jack wearing black clothes．
All these ways have one thing in common．You must pay attention to the people you meet．You can't just meet someone，nod your head，say hello，and walk away．Remembering names takes work and practice．

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，判斷下列句子正誤．正確的用"A"表示，不正確的用"B"表示．
31．Few people have problems remembering others'names．B
32．The word"typical"probably means"common"．A
33．It may seem unusual to help remember a name by making up a story with it．A
34．If you want to remember names easily，you must talk politely to the people you meet．B
35．This passage mainly tells us how to get on well with others．B．

5．How do you eat potatoes？Potato chips and potato stewed with beef are popular choices．But can you imagine that in the future potatoes will be served as a staple food （主食） on your table？Potatoes are becoming China's fourth staple food after rice，wheat and corn，according to the Ministry of Agriculture in January，2015．This is a welcome move to make Chinese people's staple food more balanced and diversified （多樣的）．
But why is potato the choice？
Potatoes are healthy and nutritious．They are a good source of vitamin C and potassium （鉀）．A potato's vitamin C is as rich as 10 apples．What's more，potatoes are low in calories，only three fourths of the same amount of wheat and corn．So if you are worried about your weight，you can try changing to potatoes．
Also，potatoes are easy to grow．They can be grown in the north and south during winter，spring and autumn．The plant is also able to bear drought．With China facing water shortages，potatoes can become a safe and reliable food．And some products made of potatoes can be stored longer than other staple foods．Flour that is made of potato can be stored for as long as 15 to 20 years，according to Beijing Times．
With these advantages，the potato has long been a popular staple food in many Western countries such as the US and UK．They can be made into different foods including bread，cookies and pancakes．
While in China，because of Chinese eating habits，the potato will be cooked differently．It will be made into noodles，steamed bread and other staple foods similar to those made of rice or wheat．
So are you ready to have potato noodles or steamed bread for your next meal？

34．The last sentence of the first paragraph infers thatB．
A．Chinese people will have fewer staple foods
B．Chinese people like to accept potatoes as one of the staple foods   
C．potatoes will become the staple food instead of rice，wheat and corn
D．potatoes chips and potato stewed with beef will make Chinese people's staple food more balanced
35．Dtell（s） us why people choose potatoes as staple food．
A．Paragraph 2     
B．Paragraph 3     
C．Paragraph 4    
D．Paragraph 3 and 4
36．Which of the following statements is TRUE？B
A．An apple's vitamin C is much more than a potato's．
B．Calories of potatoes are only 75% of the same amount of wheat and corn．
C．Potatoes can be grown in the north and south all year around．
D．Flour made of wheat can be stored longer than that made of potato
37．According to the passage，we can learn thatA．
A．a(chǎn) lot of western countries have used potatoes as staple food
B．people need a lot of water to grow potatoes to make them safe
C．to meet Chinese taste，potatoes will be made into bread，cookies and pancakes
D．Chinese eating habits will be changed because potato will be cooked differently．

12．Have you ever wondered why birds sing？Maybe you thought that they were just happy．After all，you probably sing when you are happy．
Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy．However，they sing most of the time for a very different reason．Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory．
Do you know what a"territory"is？A territory is an area that an animal，usually the male animal，considers as its own．Only he and his family are welcome there．No other families of the same species（物種） are welcome．Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome．If a stranger should enter your territory and frighten you，you might shout．Probably this would be enough to frighten him away．
If so，you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him．A bird does the same thing．But he expects an outsider almost any time，especially at nesting（筑巢） season．So he is screaming all the time，whether he can see an outsider or not．This screaming is what we call a bird's song，and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away．
Birds sing loudest in spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs．
You can see that birds have a language of their own．Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories．

28．Some scientists believe that most of the time bird's singing is actuallyB．
A．a(chǎn)n expression of happiness
B．a(chǎn) way of warning
C．a(chǎn)n expression of anger
D．a(chǎn) way of greeting
29．What does the underlined word"territory"mean？A
A．An area which a bird considers to be its own．
B．An area for which birds fight against each other．
C．A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice．
D．A place where families of other species are not welcome．
30．Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season？D
A．Because they want to invite more friends．
B．Because they want to find outsiders around．
C．Because they want to express their happiness．
D．Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away．
31．How does the writer explain birds'singing？D
A．By telling a bird's story．
B．By describing birds'daily life．
C．By reporting experiment results．
D．By comparing birds with human beings．

  Gallup，an American company，does a national survey in the US every year to see who is happy and what makes them happy．The survey has many questions，such as，"How many times do you laugh a day？"and"How much money do you think is enough for a good life？"The results of the latest survey came out on June 16．
  It showed that Hawaii is the happiest state in the US．It also found that older people are happier than younger ones，and men are happier than women．Based on the findings，the company has made a model of the happiest person in the US．It's a tall，Asian-American man，65or older．He lives in Hawaii，is married，has children，is religious （有宗教信仰的），runs a business and makes more than 120，000ayear．
  Alvin Wong，who lives in Hawaii，fitted the model．That's why the 69-year-old Chinese-American became the happiest American．Wong is a very active person．"I get up in the morning and say，‘I'm very lucky．I'm living in Hawaii，doing what I want to do'．"he said．Wong runs his own business．He said he has some stress，but he's satisfied （滿足的）．"There are always hard times．I believe that if you can't laugh at yourself，life is going to be terrible for you…I've lived my whole life with humor（幽默）．"
