11．Do you want a bit of an adventure？Would you like to discover all the corners of the UK，or travel abroad？Maybe you have never tried the motorhome lifestyle before．Well，read this article and you will know why a motorhome is a good choice．
Nothing is better than a motorhome．It has so many uses that it is considered the most versatile vehicle and it is also very comfortable．If you are thinking about hiring a motorhome this summer，then the best choice is to book it early，especially if you are considering the school holidays．The motorhome hire service is very seasonal and motorhome hire companies will never have extra vehicles available in the summer months．
There are a lot of companies throughout the UK，and some of the big ones have motorhomes spread all over the country．At present，the largest network for motorhome hire is provided by Motorhome which is based in Cambridge．If you are in the UK，you may phone 0800612-8719 for details of its motorhome hire information．Motorhome has a network of over 500 vehicles all over England，Scotland and Wales．
Most people wishing to hire a motorhome are families that are looking for an alternative to a European package holiday，especially as flying now has become more expensive，and is considered to be environmentally unfriendly．There is no doubt that the idea of no-fly holidays is going to become more popular as fewer people think it is safe to fly．This explains why more and more people are choosing to hire a motorhome for their holidays．

19．Carbon monoxide（一氧化碳） poisoning kills and injures many people and animals around the world．The gas has been a problem since people first began burning fuels to cook food or to create heat．It is a problem in all parts of the world that experience cold weather．
Carbon monoxide is called the silent killer because people do not know it is in the air．The gas has no color．It has no taste．It has no smell．It does not cause burning eyes．And it does not cause people to cough．But it is very deadly．It robs the body of its ability to use oxygen．
Carbon monoxide decreases the ability of the blood to carry oxygen to body tissues．It does this by linking with the blood．When the gas links with the blood，the blood is no longer able to carry oxygen to the tissues that need it．
Damage to the body can begin very guickly from large amounts of carbon monoxide．How quickly this happens depends on the length of time a perosn is breathing the gas and the amount of the gas he or she breathes in．
Carbon monoxide poisoning has waming sings．But people have to be awake to recognize them．Small amounts of the gas will cause a person's head to hurt．He or she may beginto feel tired．The person may have trouble thinking clearly．Peole develop severe head pains as the amount of gas continues to erter their blood．They will begin to feel very tired and sleepy．They may have terribe stomach pains．
Medical experts say carbon monoxide affects people differently．For example，a small child will experience health problems or die much quicker than an adult will．The general heath of person or his or her age can also be important．An older adult with health problems may suffer the effects of carbon monoxide more quickly than a younger person with no health problems．People with heart disease may suffer chest pains．They may begin to have trouble breathing．
 
31．Why is carbon monoxide called the silent killer？B
A．Because it tastes and smells good．
B．Because it is not easily noticed．
C．Because it kills and injures people．
D．Because it always harms people．
32．How does carbon monoxide harm people？D
A．It makes people's blood unable to move．
B．It decreases the amount of blood in the body．
C．It makes body tissues full of blood．
D．It makes the blood less able to carry oxygen．
33．When people breathe in small amounts of carbon monoxide，they mayA．
A．feel a little dizzy             B．suffer a severe headache
C．go around in the room           D．have a terrible stomachache
34．Which of the following about carbon monoxide poisoning is true？C
A．Adults are affected more seriously than children．
B．Young people are more severely affected than old people．
C．People in poor health may have more severe consequences．
D．People with heart problem only suffer from chest pains．
35．The purpose of the passage is toD．
A．warn people not to burn fuels to keep warm in the winter．
B．list the damages that carbon monoxide brings to people．
C．give advice on how to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning．

6．If you are planning to study in the United States，you need to consider several factors．Everyone has different opinions about where is the best place to live in．Also，the best places to live in are not always home to the best schools．Finally，many schools specialize in different areas of study．The Massachusetts Institute of Technology （麻省理工學院），for example，is a great school for computer science and technology-related fields of study．However，if you want to study oceanography（海洋學），your interests may be better served by attending school in a place that is on a coastline or near the ocean．
Now I am sure that you know which schools are considered the best in the country．So I will tell you about which states I believe are the best to live in．
California is a nice state．Northern California specifically has very good weather．Los Angeles in Southern California is another story though．Life in Los Angeles is full of excitement and fast，and sometimes dangerous．As for me，I enjoy the time I spent in Massachusetts，Virginia and Maryland and these states have a lot of history and culture．The weather is not as perfect as Northern California，but it is still quite nice．My favorite area of America is the Mid-west．Middle America，I think，is home to the true American sense of values．In addition，there are many good universities there．
Also，you need to think about your likes and dislikes and then research the various states．You like sunshine and hate snow？Then you probably won't like the Midwest or even the Northeast．Open space，nature and peace and quiet？Then you probably should stay away from America's large cities．Are you interested in government？Then Washington D．C．is the only place for you．Whatever you decide，put some thought into it．The place you live in could be the difference between a great study-abroad experience and a state of great suffering on earth．

31．From the first paragraph we can conclude that in the USAD．
A．a(chǎn)ll colleges and universities lie in big cities
B．a(chǎn)ll colleges and universities lie in beautiful places
C．famous colleges and universities lie in nice places
D．famous colleges and universities may not lie in nice places
32．What，according to the writer，should be considered first if you want to study in the USA？C
A．The climate．
B．The scenery．
C．The study condition．
D．The living condition．
33．From the third paragraph we can find thatC．
A．California is the best place to live in
B．California is the worst place to live in
C．California is a state with different climates
D．California is a small state in the USA
34．If you study in Middle America，you can probablyB．
A．find the best universities
B．feel the real character of the nation
C．meet the most famous professors there
D．face more difficulties
35．From the last paragraph of this passage we can get to know that．B
A．Washington is the largest city in the USA
B．Washington D．C．is the political centre of the USA
C．you can't find sunshine in the Midwest
D．you can't find any universities out of big cities in the USA．

16．Graduating from high school is one of the most satisfying，but for the first time，you are faced with the task of leading yourself to a successful future．Advice floods in from everybody in all directions and eventually you have obtained so much information about how to do well in college that it starts to become confusing．
    Many people say the best way to get through college with the best grades is to study most of the time and relax the rest of the time．While this is a great strategy，the whole social aspect of the college life is completely ignored．Social life plays a large role in overall well-being （福利）．College offers the best chance you will ever have to surround yourself with great people for the rest of your 1ife．
You need to create schedules for yourself to manage your time．It is sometimes difficult for students to separate having fun and studying．If you want to make it through college，you must go to class．Students often fail out because they completely neglect（忽視） going to class and doing required assignments．And then there's the complete opposite side，the students who graduate with a 4.0 grade point average but have never been to a social event in their college career．The key to success is balance．What is the point of spending four years in the same place if you build no supportive relationships，good memories or funny stories？

3．Proper Care and Use of a Microscope
A microscope is a useful instrument for observing small objects．It shows people the details that are undetectable when they observe with their own eyes．Before using the microscope，please read the instruction below．
Caution：
Microscopes are both delicate and expensive，and must be handled with care．
1．Always carry the microscope with two hands-one supporting the base and the other on the arm．
2．Keep the stage clean and always use a glass slide for specimens，the things tested or examined．
3．To avoid pressing the glass slide when focusing，begin with the lens （鏡頭） close to the specimen and gradually back off to focus．
4．Keep the microscope covered to prevent the buildup of
dust while it is being stored．
How to Use the Microscope：
1．Plug in the lamp．
2．Place a specimen on a slide．
3．Adjust the mirror so it reflects light from the room up into the objective lens．
4．Place your slide with the specimen directly over the center of the glass circle on the stage．If it is a wet slide，be sure the bottom of the slide is dry．
5．With the LOW POWER objective lens placed over the slide，use the coarse focus knob to lower the lens to the lowest point．
6．Look through the eyepiece with one eye while closing the other eye．Slowly raise the lens until the focus is relatively clear．
7．Use the fine focus knob to make very small changes to the focus．
8．Without changing the focus knobs，switch to the HIGH POWER objective lens．Once you have
switched to HIGH POWER，use only the fine focus knob to make the image sharper．
