【推荐1】The Growing Popularity of Cycling
Once you learn how to ride a bike, you never forget. Most of us learned when we were kids.
First, let’s look at the health benefits. Cycling can improve your health and burn extra body fat. Strengthening the leg muscles helps to increase your speed.
Cycling can be a great way to commute (通勤) or get about town.
Then, on the train, there are changes at stations and other commuters speaking loudly on their phones to deal with.
So, whether people want to cycle for their health, to get about town, for their wallet, for the environment, or a combination of all of them-the popularity of cycling is on the rise.
A.And its advantages aren’t just physical, but mental as well. |
B.Cyclists face neither of these problems. |
C.You save money on fuel or train fees by cycling. |
D.And many still keep this skill with ease into adulthood. |
E.Finally, cycling can also be good for the environment. |
I try to advise them to cycle to work, so I did some research about the benefits of cycling to work. Of course, cycling has some advantages over driving. It is cheaper, it is better for the environment, and you don’t have to find a parking space. The point about the parking space is an important one as the car parks are often full. I know that my workmate sometimes spends 15 minutes looking for a parking space! It is true that cycling is a little slower than going by car, but at rush hour it doesn’t make much difference. The time it takes to cycle is generally easier to predict than the time it takes to drive. When there is heavy traffic, people on bicycles can get past, while people in cars have to wait.
There are clear health benefits to cycling. According to one expert, if you cycle regularly you should be as fit as a younger person. I am 47 and I still play football in a team,so I would say that his opinion is true. As well as being good for your health, cycling can reduce stress. I also find that when I can’t solve a problem at work, the answer often comes to me when I am cycling. Sometimes the harder you think about a problem, the harder it is to find the solution. And you really need to pay less attention to the problems. Cycling relaxes the mind.
I am going to say to my workmates “two wheels good, four wheels bad” every day until they get on their bikes!

【推荐1】A 14-year-old student from the UK is preparing for the next day of school: textbooks, notebooks, pens, 250 grams of flour, an egg and some cooking oil. Wait, what? It’s not a joke.
Cookery(烹饪)is a compulsory course(必修课程)for the kids aged 7—14 in the UK. Primary school students learn to make simple and healthy food excitedly. At high school, students then master a lot of different meals. They also learn some cooking skills such as baking.
The UK is famous as a country with bad food and unhealthy eating habits. These new courses are part of the country’s plan to bring healthy food back onto the table. “One in four families from the UK no longer has a table that everyone can eat around. One out of every two meals is eaten alone. Only 40 percent of us enjoy eating meals with our children.” The UK writer Joanna Blythman wrote in her book. Instead, ready meals have become the first choice for many kids in the UK, because their parents are so busy that they don’t have time to cook meals for their kids.
The Department for Education(教育部)hopes the cookery courses can help children to learn about good food and reduce childhood obesity(肥胖).
“It’s important that children can develop an interest and a better understanding of good food,” said a spokesman for the department. “The courses can help them to develop a love of healthy food and cooking them as they grow up.”
1. Primary school students feel ________ about learning cookery.A.nervous | B.excited | C.sad |
A.the UK is famous for its healthy food and eating habits |
B.most people from the UK love to eat with their children |

A.乐意的 | B.即食的 | C.愿意的 |
A.develop an interest of doing housework |
B.enjoy eating and cooking healthy food |
C.dream of being excellent cooks |

【推荐2】Students often say their teachers give them too much homework. Now two reports show that it is not true in America.
The Brooking report shows that most middle school students do homework for only 40—50 minutes. It also shows students in France, Italy and England spend two hours on homework. And students in China and Japan spend more than two hours on homework a night.
The Rand report shows that only 10% of middle school students need two hours a night to finish homework. In America, parents want their children to have time for sports, music lessons and other things after school. After students finish their homework, they can play sports, read books and listen to music with their parents. It sounds great! Some experts also say that schools need to give useful homework to their students, but not too much.

Many parents want their children to play a musical instrument. But forced(被迫的)practice can cause a lot of stress for children. For young children, it is difficult for them to pay attention.
Is it necessary to force a child to learn a musical instrument, especially against their interests? In my opinion, music is undoubtedly one of the best education methods, but it should be children’s own choice.
I remember myself showing an interest in the electronic organ(电子琴)when I was in primary school. However, my parents didn’t have time to send me for classes.
Children usually learn things faster than adults. That’s why many parents want their children to start early, even if they are not able to realize the advantages of learning an instrument yet.
A.They lose patience easily. |
B.Interest is the best teacher. |
C.But these still need to be based on children’s interests. |
D.Children can get more satisfaction from the musical experience. |
E.Therefore, my shortage of musical knowledge has become a pity. |
F.Why do parents want their children to pick up a musical instrument? |

【推荐2】Maybe you’ll meet a word that you don’t know in an exam. Most students may be nervous if a dictionary is not around them. But don’t worry! There are some ways to help you guess the meaning of a word without a dictionary.
Read the whole sentence (句子). Your first step is to go back and reread the whole sentence. You may forget what you are reading when you meet a new word. Then try to think about the content (内容) of the sentence.
