（A）
Waves are beautiful to look at but they can destroy ships at sea, as well as houses and buildings near the shore. What causes waves? Most waves are caused by winds blowing over the surface of the water. The winds blow across the sea, pushing little waves into bigger and bigger ones.
The size of a wave depends on how strong the wink is, how long it blows, and how large the body of water is. In a small bay (海湾)big waves will never build up. But at sea the wind can build up giant (巨大的), powerful waves.
A rule says that the height of a wave ( in meters) will usually be no more than one tenth of the wind’s speed (in kilometers). In other words. When the wind is blowing at 120 kilometers per hour, most waves will be about twelve meters. Of course, some waves may join together to form giant waves that are much higher. In 1933 the United States navy reported the largest measured wave in history. It rose in the Pacific Ocean to a height of thirty-four meters.
Judge the following sentences true(T) or false(F) according to the passage.
( )1. This article mainly tells us what causes waves
( )2. If the wind blows against the sea, the waves near the shore are bigger than those far from the shore.
( )3. Long wind will surely cause very big waves.
( )4. The stronger the wind is, the higher the waves are.
( )5. Not all waves are caused by winds

During the past one hundred years, there have been many inventions that make our life much easier and more interesting. TV is one of them. Many people enjoy watching TV for fun. Some even believe that TV has made their children cleverer because there are all kinds of information on it-news, science, music and language. Children can learn a lot from TV in a short time without going out. Many parents are happy about this because they themselves are too busy to spend time with their children.
But we have found that more and more children today have problems with reading, thinking, and concentrating (精力集中) even though they have watched a loot of TV. In fact, getting much information from TV doesn’t mean real learning. Children who watch too much TV do not have enough time to think or to communicate with people. Besides, it takes time and love for children to grow up. What children need most is their parents. Parents give children love, and help them solve problems in the right way. We should teach our children what real life is without TV. After all, machines should not be more important than people.

More and more young people around the world are joining in dangerous sports. Some people climbed the highest mountain, some traveled into unknown parts of the world, some sat in small boats across the largest sea. Now some people begin to look for a new excitement (刺激).
Bungee jumping (蹦极) and motorcycle race are quite dangerous sports. Bungee jumping only lasts a few minutes or even seconds. You jump from a high place 200 meters above the ground, and there is a rubber band (橡皮筋) tied to your legs. You fall down and the rubber band pulls you up. It’s said that about 2, 000, 000 people around the world have tried bungee jumping. Why people join in these dangerous sports? Some scientists say that it’s because modern life has become safe and it’s not interesting. In the past, people lived in danger. They had to go out and look for food, and life was like a fight and was interesting.
These days many people think that there is little excitement in life. They live and work in safe places, buy food in shops, and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill.
Why do these people like dangerous sports? The answer is: they want to look for danger and excitement.

“Tom? Are you in bed yet?” called Mrs. White. There was no answer. Mrs. White put down her book and went to her 14 – year – old son’s room. Tom was sitting in front of a bright computer screen on which a motorbike was running fast.
“ Oh, Tom. You’re still playing on that computer. You must stoop now, it’s half past eleven. If you don’t go to bed soon, you’ll be very tired tomorrow.” Said Mrs. White.
“But I’ve nearly won the game.” Tom Said to Mrs. White. She could see the excitement on his face. She sat down beside him.
“You’re always playing on the computer. You spend more time on this machine than on your homework.”
Today more and more families have computers. Parents hope computers can help their children improve their study at school. But, many of their children use computers to play games, to watch videos, instead of studying. We often see that computer game houses are crowded with people, especially young boys. They spend a lot of money competing with the computerized machines. The more they lose, the more they want to win. The result is that they don’t want to work or study.
In some other countries, even scientists hate computers. They say computers cause millions of people to lose their jobs or cause them a lot of trouble. Computer game addiction (瘾) is a serious problem in social life. Something has to be done to solve the problem.
Answer the following questions according to the passage you read.
1. How did Mrs. White feel when she saw her son was playing late?
2. What do parents think computers can do to their children?
3. Does the writer agree to spend much money on computer games?

Waves are beautiful to look at but they can destroy ships at sea, as well as houses and buildings near the shore. What causes waves? Most waves are caused by winds blowing over the surface of the water. The winds blow across the sea, pushing little waves into bigger and bigger ones.
The size of a wave depends on how strong the wink is, how long it blows, and how large the body of water is. In a small bay (海湾)big waves will never build up. But at sea the wind can build up giant (巨大的), powerful waves.
A rule says that the height of a wave ( in meters) will usually be no more than one tenth of the wind’s speed (in kilometers). In other words. When the wind is blowing at 120 kilometers per hour, most waves will be about twelve meters. Of course, some waves may join together to form giant waves that are much higher. In 1933 the United States navy reported the largest measured wave in history. It rose in the Pacific Ocean to a height of thirty-four meters.
Judge the following sentences true(T) or false(F) according to the passage.
( )1. This article mainly tells us what causes waves
( )2. If the wind blows against the sea, the waves near the shore are bigger than those far from the shore.
( )3. Long wind will surely cause very big waves.
( )4. The stronger the wind is, the higher the waves are.
( )5. Not all waves are caused by winds

During the past one hundred years, there have been many inventions that make our life much easier and more interesting. TV is one of them. Many people enjoy watching TV for fun. Some even believe that TV has made their children cleverer because there are all kinds of information on it-news, science, music and language. Children can learn a lot from TV in a short time without going out. Many parents are happy about this because they themselves are too busy to spend time with their children.
But we have found that more and more children today have problems with reading, thinking, and concentrating (精力集中) even though they have watched a loot of TV. In fact, getting much information from TV doesn’t mean real learning. Children who watch too much TV do not have enough time to think or to communicate with people. Besides, it takes time and love for children to grow up. What children need most is their parents. Parents give children love, and help them solve problems in the right way. We should teach our children what real life is without TV. After all, machines should not be more important than people.

More and more young people around the world are joining in dangerous sports. Some people climbed the highest mountain, some traveled into unknown parts of the world, some sat in small boats across the largest sea. Now some people begin to look for a new excitement (刺激).
Bungee jumping (蹦极) and motorcycle race are quite dangerous sports. Bungee jumping only lasts a few minutes or even seconds. You jump from a high place 200 meters above the ground, and there is a rubber band (橡皮筋) tied to your legs. You fall down and the rubber band pulls you up. It’s said that about 2, 000, 000 people around the world have tried bungee jumping. Why people join in these dangerous sports? Some scientists say that it’s because modern life has become safe and it’s not interesting. In the past, people lived in danger. They had to go out and look for food, and life was like a fight and was interesting.
These days many people think that there is little excitement in life. They live and work in safe places, buy food in shops, and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill.
Why do these people like dangerous sports? The answer is: they want to look for danger and excitement.

“Tom? Are you in bed yet?” called Mrs. White. There was no answer. Mrs. White put down her book and went to her 14 – year – old son’s room. Tom was sitting in front of a bright computer screen on which a motorbike was running fast.
“ Oh, Tom. You’re still playing on that computer. You must stoop now, it’s half past eleven. If you don’t go to bed soon, you’ll be very tired tomorrow.” Said Mrs. White.
“But I’ve nearly won the game.” Tom Said to Mrs. White. She could see the excitement on his face. She sat down beside him.
“You’re always playing on the computer. You spend more time on this machine than on your homework.”
Today more and more families have computers. Parents hope computers can help their children improve their study at school. But, many of their children use computers to play games, to watch videos, instead of studying. We often see that computer game houses are crowded with people, especially young boys. They spend a lot of money competing with the computerized machines. The more they lose, the more they want to win. The result is that they don’t want to work or study.
In some other countries, even scientists hate computers. They say computers cause millions of people to lose their jobs or cause them a lot of trouble. Computer game addiction (瘾) is a serious problem in social life. Something has to be done to solve the problem.
Answer the following questions according to the passage you read.
1. How did Mrs. White feel when she saw her son was playing late?
2. What do parents think computers can do to their children?
3. Does the writer agree to spend much money on computer games?
