I got there a little early, so I 41 my car by a small park, and 42 for her. As I looked outside the car window, I saw a little boy, around two years old, running 43 on the grass as his mother 44 from a short distance. The boy had a big smile on his face as if he had just been 45 free from some sort of prison. The boy would then fall to the grass, 46 up, without looking back at his mother, ran as 47 as he could, again, still with a smile on his face, as if nothing had happened. At that moment, I thought to myself, “Why arent most adults this way?” Most adults, when they fall down, make a big deal out of it and dont even 48 a second attempt. They would be so 49 that they would not try again if someone saw them fall. Or, because they fall, they would find a good 50 for themselves that theyre not fit for it. They would end up too afraid to attempt again for fear of failure. However, with kids, when they fall down, they dont consider their falling down as a failure, instead, they treat it as a 51 experience. They try again and again until they 52 .The answer must be that they have not connected “falling down” with the word “failure”. As a 53 , they are not discouraged in any way. Besides, they 54 think to themselves that its quite okay to fall down and that its not wrong to do so. In other words, they allow themselves to make 55 , so they remain energetic.

There are many different kinds of kites there. Some look like bats. Others look like bees or birds. Most have pictures on them. There are many interesting stories about kites in Japan. One story tells about a thief who used a kite. He wanted to steal the gold from the top of a high tower. The thief and his friends raised it into the air. Then they moved the kite near the top of the tower. The thief was able to steal the gold. Another story tells about a father and a son. They were in trouble on an island near Japan.

Keeping pets lowers blood pressure and makes people less worried. Animals are increasingly important in treating older people who have memory loss and other brain problems. These people often feel nervous and upset. Activities with animals help them improve their physical condition and also give them joy, entertainment and loving friendship.Here is a case that shows the benefits of animals. John was a six-year-old mute. He had no physical problems. He just refused to talk. His older cousin, Ned, had a parrot called Sally, and John used to visit it. When he arrived, Net used to say, “Hi, John!” We all know parrots copy what they hear. After a few visits, Sally began saying “Hi, John!” when John came into the room. Then, one day, John turned to the parrot and replied “Hi, Sally!” Staying with the parrot encouraged John to begin talking.Another use of animal helpers is in schools. In some cases, animals are used to help children with physical or personal problems. In other cases, they are used to teach children to get on and share with others, and even to teach them about animals.If you want to know more about animal helper programmes, you can get in touch with organizations like Riding for the Disabled or do a search under “animal therapy” on the Internet. You dont have to be an animal trainer or a doctor to join in.( )61. Which is NOT mentioned as an illness that animals can help with? A. Heart disease B. Cancer C. Fever D. Blood pressure ( )62.

They can teach them to share with each other.( )65. What is the best title of this passage? A. Be kind to animals B. Talking to animals C. The most dangerous diseases D. Get healthy with animal helpers CWhy do we like drinking water from plastic bottles? Some people think it is healthy and clean. Others drink bottled water because its easy you can carry it around with you. In hot countries, like Greece, we often buy bottles of cold water in the summer. However, making lots of plastic is not a good idea for many reasons. First of all, we need a lot of oil for plastic products. We usually use oil as a source (资源) of energy. If we reduced the number of bottles we made, we wouldnt need so much oil. Plastic bottles also pollute the environment. If we recycled all our plastic bottles, we wouldnt need so much space for rubbish dumps. But in Greece, we dont recycle much of the plastic we use. In 2006, Greeks recycled only about 10% of plastic waste. The rest became rubbish on land and in rivers and seas. So next time you want to throw away a plastic bottle in the litter bin, stop and think. If you recycled it, you would help the environment. But what can you do when there isnt a recycling bin near you? Well, there are lots of useful ways that you can use your bottles again. For example, an empty bottle makes a great piggy bank for your pocket money, and if you cut a bottle in half, you will have a plant pot. Go green! You can make a difference. ( ) 66. What is not mentioned about bottled water in this passage? A. Its healthy. B. Its clean. C. Its easy. D. Its expensive. ( ) 67. Plastic products are made from . A. energy B. oil C. rubbish D. plants ( ) 68. of plastic waste became rubbish in Greece in 2006. A. 10% B. 50% C. 80% D. 90% ( ) 69. Which is the
