Many boys and girls love to watch TV. They spend many hours a day in front of the TV set. There are many types（种类）of TV programs, such as sitcoms, soap operas, movies, sports shows, fashion（时尚；时装业） shows, etc. A child can learn both bad things and good things from them. Some programs help children to understand the news all over the world, and some show them the people and places of other countries. With television , a child doesn’t have to go to the zoo to see animals or to the ocean（海洋） to see sharks. Boys and girls can see a play, listen to a concert or watch a game at home.
But some programs show crime and other things which are not educational for children. So parents sometimes should help them to find other interesting things to do. They should tell them it is fun to watch some TV programs, but it is also fun to read books, to play games or to visit friends.

【推荐2】On December 3rd, 2017, a program by CCTV called National Treasure was shown to people all over the country. It became popular with both the old and the young as soon as it came out.

【推荐2】Nowadays lots of kids are at home alone after school. Are you one of them? Kids who regularly take care of themselves are called “latchkey kids”.
This nickname got its start in the 1940s. Many men fought in the Second World War and women had to take jobs in factories to keep the country going. With both parents away, lots of kids went back to empty houses after school. Latchkey kids wore house keys around their necks and they used the keys to open doors.
Today, it’s common for both parents to work. As a result, a new generation of kids are spending some time alone after school. It becomes necessary for both parents and kid to make some rules. There are a lot of questions to talk about:
Should you call our mum, or dad as soon as you get home?
Should you do your homework first?
Can you watch TV or play computer games? If so how long?
What can you eat if you want a snack?
Can friends come over? If so, how many?
...
As latchkey kids, knowing how to stay safe is just as important as following the family rules. Talk about he following questions with your parents:
What should you do when the phone rings?
What should you do if someone knocks at the door?
What should you do if someone breaks into the house?
What should you do if you cut yourself while cooking?
...
You may feel _________ when you are at home alone. Don’t worry. Keeping yourself busy is helpful.
There are many things which can make you feel that time goes by quickly:
●Read a magazine.
●Write an e-mail.
●Phone a friend.

【推荐3】Do you like music? Can you play any musical instrument? Last year, a music school in the UK reported that there had been an 80% decline in young people playing the recorder (竖笛). However, many students do play a musical instrument as part of their lessons or as an after-school activity. Learning to play an instrument is hard work ________. Research shows that actively creating music by playing an instrument is like exercise for the mind, which can help some parts of the brain—especially in young people. For this reason, and many others, some people think that every child should play a musical instrument. Other people say that’s silly because not everyone wants to play or has any talent for it. So what do you think?
Some people think it’s impossible that every child should learn to play an instrument at school, because there aren’t enough teachers and lessons for everyone to learn the instrument they wanted. For example, if someone wants to play something unusual, it might be hard to find a teacher. Many young people simply aren’t interested in music or aren’t very good at playing an instrument. If they are forced to try, lessons become a chore and they’ll be put off music for life. Playing the violin or flute isn’t a life skill like maths or English. For that reason, children should be allowed to do something they enjoy or are good at instead.
However, others think differently. Studies show that children who play an instrument get lots of benefits (好处). One found that musical training improves children’s skills in maths, science and English. Another showed it can help to strengthen memories. Learning an instrument requires patience and a lot of practice, both of which are lifelong skills that build self-discipline (自律). Besides, learning to play music is not just about doing something because it’s good for you—it’s joyful and creative, and no one should miss out on that. Even students who don’t really want to learn an instrument might discover a hidden talent if they are given the chance to try.

| A．and no one can get anything from it | B．but it can be helpful and fun |

【推荐1】At present, a number of people are chasing fashion. They spend much money chasing fashion. At the same time, it brings us negative effects (负面影响) that may influence the development of our society.
What’s fashion? The meaning of fashion can not be explained by a simple word. Everyone has a different understanding of fashion. Some people think that popularization is fashion, and some people think that highlighting personality (彰显个性) is fashion. In fact, fashion is a popular style (of clothes, behavior, etc. ) at a given time or place. Fashion is changing constantly, so it’s always different.
It’s not necessary for young people to follow fashion. One should have his own style. One should be changing himself to the situation, but it doesn’t mean that he should follow fashion. We should consider whether fashion is helpful. I think that following it has more disadvantages than advantages. To follow fashion is to waste money, energy and time. If you follow fashion, you’ll lose your own style. If everyone follows the same fashion, there won’t be differences in the world.
1. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refer to?| A．chasing fashion | B．money | C．time | D．the development of our society |

【推荐2】We use our smartphones to carry out many tasks every day. Many of us have become so reliant on them. However, it is bad for our eyes and health to use phones too much.
A study shows that smartphone owners usually start to use their phones early in the morning. They check personal emails and Wechat. And before they get out of bed, many people often check the weather, read the news, and send a message or two to friends. After getting up, they often take photos of food, themselves, and even whatever they can see with their phones. They share their photos with their friends. The research finds that users pick up their phones more than 1,500 times to do different tasks in an average (通常的) week. And the smartphone users are on their phone for three hours and sixteen minutes a day. That is to say, people use their phones for almost one full day each week.
Using phones will take much time and it’s also bad for our health. Many people stay up late to play phones, and mobile phones will influence our sleep. Without using the phones, many people will feel sad. Many owners also find they use their phones without realizing they’re doing so.
How do you think people use their phones too much?
1. The underlined (划线的) word “reliant” means “________” in Chinese.| A．依赖的 | B．讨厌的 | C．喜欢的 | D．感兴趣的 |

For example, Chloe Spencer’s blog ‘Neopets Fanatic’ gets around 300,000 hits per month. When Chloe was 15, she started the blog out of her strong liking for Neopets, a kind of pet website. One reason her blog has so many visitors is because she gives instructions and tips for the popular pet site.
Then there is Tavi Gevinson’s blog ‘Style Rookie’. It is said to get 1.5 million hits per month. Tavi, who started her blog when she was just 12, puts up her photos of her own clothes online as well as designers’ collections. Tavi’s blog has caught on because she knows a lot about style for someone so young, and she is not afraid to try out unusual clothes or see things in a different way.
Blogs like these are interesting, but they only become really popular after better-known websites link to them or they get noticed by the media(传媒). For example, Tavi’s blog became an overnight(一夜之间) success after being written about in The New York Times. Popular blogs can even earn money, usually from advertisements that companies pay to put up on the bloggers’ sites.
So for some, blogging is just a recreation(消遣), but for others, it can become a source of income and even a full-time job!

【推荐2】Lighting is one of the most beautiful natural phenomena（现象）. It is also one of the most deadly phenomena. A bolt of lightning is six times hotter than the surface（表面）of the Sun and gives out 30,000 amps of electricity（电）. It can travel at 100, 000 kilometres per hour and has the ability to hit a target up to 40 kilometres away. About 1, 000 people around the world are killed by lightning every day.
Only about ten percent of people struck by lightening will actually die, but the others are actually very badly injured, with burns, broken bones, blindness, deafness, paralysis, or memory loss. However, when the electricity passes through their brain, it can occasionally have unusual and even positive effects. Some blind people have got their sight back after being struck by lightning. One woman said a psychological test showed her intelligence （智力）had greatly improved, and one man said he could no longer feel cold at all and could go out in temperature below freezing in just a T-shirt!
So what should you do to stay safe in a thunderstorm? The most important rule is to stay inside, but do not go near phones, electrical appliances, plumbing, or water. If you are stuck outside, do not take shelter under a tree. Instead, roll yourself up into a ball on the ground as small as possible. And do not think it has to be raining in order for lightning to strike.
Strangely, lightning seems to prefer some people to others. If you are a man, you are six times more likely to be struck by lightning than a woman!

【推荐3】Not everything goes the way you want it to. You may go to a restaurant and order a nice meal. But your order is wrong or not cooked properly. You may buy a product that breaks the next day.
Use polite language and a friendly tone of voice. Start with phrases such as, "I'm sorry to bother you, but…" or "Excuse me, but could you…?" For example, "I'm sorry to bother you but I ordered potato soup, not vegetables." Phrasing your complaint as a question also helps.
There are honest mistakes, but at times someone may try to take advantage of you. In that case, don't say "Hey! You're trying to cheat me!" Instead, use the phrase, "I understood that…" For example, "I understood that the service charge was included in the price." Then give the person a chance to answer.
If you don't get what you want with a polite conversation, ask to speak to a manager.
| A．When trying to solve a problem, don't blame (责备) the person you're talking to. |
| B．People like to be asked rather than told! |
| C．But usually, you'll find that polite words and a smile will deal with a situation. |
| D．These kinds of experiences make you want to complain. |
| E．These phrases let people know you are only angry at the situation. |
