A
Singapore’s language mixture
A new bus in Singapore is making headlines(成为新闻热点) for a strange reason. It is what is written on the signs inside the bus that has people talking. The signs are written in Singlish!
Quite different from the English we know, the signs read, for example, “Here cannot go in” instead of “You cannot go in from here”, and “Here can charge phone” instead of “You can charge your phone here.”
English is one of the official languages in Singapore. But the English Singaporeans use in their daily lives is far from standard English and gets it the name“Singlish\". In Singapore, migrants(移民) from many countries, including China, India and Malaysia, all speak their own \"English\". The New York Times calls Singlish a “patchwork”(拼凑品).
For example, in Singlish you can easily find influences from Chinese. Singaporeans use Chinese sentence structures(结构) like “Toilet where?” instead of “Where is the toilet?”. They also add words like “leh” and “meh” at the end of a sentence to show their mood. This comes from Cantonese.
Though it may seem interesting, Singlish is worrying Singapore’s government. It thinks that Singlish may hurt people’s ability to speak standard English and make it hard for them to communicate with foreigners. The government even started the Speak Good English Movement in 2000.
But the movement didn’t seem to work very well, especially among young people. The youth think Singlish is
cool and a way to show they’re Singaporeans. Besides, many can speak both standard English and Singlish. “We are a nation good at code switching(语码转换),” wrote Cheryl Lu Lien Tam, Singaporean writer, in Time magazine.
25. The examples in the second paragraph tell us ______.
A. how English is spoken in Singapore B. how to speak English well in Singapore C. why English in Singapore is different D. what to do to speak good English 26. From the third and fourth paragraphs, we know that ______.
a. English is an official language in Singapore b. Singlish is influenced by migrants

c. Singlish is good, according to The New York Times d. Chinese language influences Singlish most A. ab B. bc C. bd D. ad 27. What do Singaporeans think of Singlish?
A. The government is proud of it.
B. The government encourages its people to create more. C. Young people started the Speak Good English Movement. D. Young people like Singlish and think it’s cool.

After that, we went on down the river. It was very dark that night and it wasn’t easy to see where we were going. Suddenly, a big steamboat came at us very fast, and the next minute it was right over us. Jim and I jumped off the raft(木筏) into the water. The boat hit the raft and went on up the river.
When I came up out of the water, I couldn’t see Jim anywhere. I called out his name again and again, but there was no answer. “He’s dead!” I thought. Slowly, I swam to the side of the river and got out. I saw that I was near a big old wooden house. Suddenly a lot of very angry dogs jumped out at me. They made a terrible noise and someone called from the house, “Who’s there?”
“George Jackson,” I answered quickly. “I’ve fallen off a river boat.”
Well, the people who lived in that house were very kind, and they took me in and gave me some new clothes and a good meal. I told them that my family were all dead, so they said I could stay with them as long as I wanted. It was a beautiful house and the food was good there, so 1 stayed.
A few days later one of the slaves in the house came to me and said, “Come with me!” Together, we went down to some trees by the river. “In there!” he said and went away.
On the ground, 1 found a man, asleep. It was Jim! I was really pleased to see him. When the steamboat hit the raft, Jim told me, the raft didn’t crash. Jim swam after it and caught it. Then he began to look for me.
We decided to leave at once. It’s all right living in a house for a lite while but you feel more free and easy and comfortable on a raft.
28. According to the story, which of the following is the correct order?
a. George saw a big house. b. George got some new clothes. c. George found Jim on the ground. d. George jumped off the raft into the water. A. c-d-a-b. B. d-b-a-c. C. c-b-a-d. D. d-a-b-c. 29. Why did George Jackson answer “quickly” when someone called from the house?
A. George felt afraid and nervous. B. George felt tired and sleepy. C. George really wanted to stay there. D. George didn’t want to lie to him. 30. Which of these old sayings best fits this story?
A. It never rains but it pours. B. Every dog has its day. C. Burn the candle at both ends. D. Many hands make light work.
C
Having a teenager at home can be a real headache. Many teenagers smoke, wear strange hairstyle and even fight. Generally, they are often taking risks.
Earlier studies have shown that teenagers are more likely to make irrational decisions than people from any other age group, including children and adults. Is it that teenagers are too young to tell right from wrong? Not really. So what’s the reason?
According to Laurence, a teacher from a US university, the reason is that teenagers care a lot about how their peers(同龄人) view them-that is “peer influence”.
As children enter their teenage years, they spend more time with their friends and classmates, and also they care more about what they think of them. This makes teenagers make decisions without thinking about the costs.
In a test, a group of teenagers were asked to play a video driving game. When they played with their friends watching around them, they took more chances and drove more carelessly because that would increase their possibility of winning. But when they played alone, they drove more safely.

Why do peers have such a big influence on teens’ behavior?
As Laurence sees it, a teenager’s brain is like a car with a good accelerator(油门) but a weak brake(刹车). The “accelerator” is fully developed by teenage years while the “brake” is still not fully developed. When teenagers are watched by their peers, they usually push hard on the accelerator. With their weak brake, it is likely that they are going to end up in an accident.
But the good news is that a violent(暴力的) teenager doesn’t necessarily become a violent adult. About two-thirds to three-quarters of violent youth grow out of it. They get more self-controlled. 31. What does the underlined word \"irrational\" in the second paragraph mean?
A. Quick. B. Crazy. C. Careful. D. Correct. 32. How does Laurence explain the influence of peer influence on teens’ behavior?
A. By using a metaphor(比喻). B. By giving examples. C. By presenting research findings. D. By performing an in-depth analysis(分析). 33. What can we learn from the text?
A. Teenagers are easy to have traffic accidents. B. Peer influence is bad on teenagers.
C. Most of the teenagers become less violent when they grow up. D. Teenagers shouldn’t spend all the free time with their friends.
D
All of us feel down from time to time. Many of us have ways to cheer ourselves up and make ourselves feel better. This is referred to as “self-care”.
This idea comes from Japan. It refers to any activity that can calm one’s feelings, clear one’s mind, and comfort a troubled heart, according to China News Report. It was first used to describe the music of Japanese song writer Ryuichi Sakamoto(坂本龙一) in 1999.
Self-care is now popular in China as well. One of the most popular activities is “healing(治愈) travel”. According to Caissa Touristic, a Beijing-based travel agency, more Chinese tourists are going on meditation(冥想) or yoga retreats in places like Japan, Bali and India.
By taking these trips, people can learn more about local culture and the way people in these countries live. Without a tour guide or detailed plan, they allow their bodies and minds to relax. This way, they forget about daily stresses and noisy surroundings(周遭事物) back home.
Having a pet can also help. Research has shown that pets and humans can heal each other, NPR reported. Strong human-to-animal bonds(情感联系) make both pets and their owners happier and healthier. Last year Chinese dog and cat owners spent over 5, 000 yuan per pet on average. China’s pet industry now has a value of 170 billion yuan, Xinhua reported.
More people are seeking out self-care activities simply because they can finally afford to. With fewer worries on money, they can slow down and take a close look at their own inner world, The Paper noted. 34. What do we know about “self-care” from the story?
A. It means living by yourself. B. It started in Japan 20 years ago. C. It focuses on one’s physical health. D. It refers to activities that you do on your own. 35. People may feel “healed” while going on trips because ______.
A. they can do meditation or yoga during their trips B. they don’t need to make plans C. they get to learn how other people live D. they can relax and avoid daily stresses 36. According to Xinhua, which of the following is TRUE?
A. “Healing travel” is a popular “self-care” activity. B. Pets can help their owners stay mentally healthy.
C. Chinese pet owners spend a lot of money on their pets. D. Chinese people prefer to raise dogs and cats. 37. What can we infer from the story?
A. Ryuichi Sakamoto’s music can make people feel better.
B. People who have pets are not necessarily happier or healthier.

Wonder why the New Year money always disappears so quickly? Well, this may be because you don’t plan to spend it carefully. Plan a budget(预算) and you will find you can stop your money from disappearing.
A budget is a plan to control where your money goes. Careful budget can help you save for the things you want, but can’t pay for right now.
Sounds useful? Look at the following before you start your budget:
1. Every week there are things we have to pay for, like school lunches and buses. There are also things we would like to spend money on--just for fun! All of these are weekly expenses (开销).
2. Since we can’t have money for everything, we have to make choices. We need to ask if we really need something or just want it. Needs are what you must have in order to live, like food and water. Wants are things you would like to have or do, but that you could live without, such as CDs and cartoons.
3. List what you must spend on needs--and if there is money left over, what you will save for the things you really want. This is called a budget.
4. If you don’t have enough money for what you need and want, you may have to give up one for the other. Any budget will change. Keep an eye on yours. Maybe you wanted a cartoon book but now you want an MP3 instead. Your needs may change into wants, or your wants may change into needs. Control your spending Background introduction If your New Year money _____52_____ out too quickly, this may be because you don’t have a careful budget. What is a budget? How to plan a budget?
