There are many amazing places to visit in England.
The first place that you shouldn’t miss in England is London. The British Museum, which you can visit free of charge, has millions of exhibits featuring ancient Egyptian, Greek and Roman artifacts. Another popular free place is the British Library and its collection of original manuscripts (原稿). The Changing of the Guard takes place at all the Royal Palaces with the most famous one of course being Buckingham Palace.

The Lake District is the mountainous, northwest realm of England. In this area, you’ll find some of England’s highest mountains and its deepest and longest lakes. Here you can reconnect with nature while spending nights camping under the stars. If you prefer a more leisurely pace, you can explore the area’s nature reserves and historic homes by yourself. For the cultural tourists, there are summer theater performances and creative arts festivals.
Oxford is best known for its university, one of the leading universities in the world. Oxford is also a vast architectural museum which dates back to the arrival of the Saxons.

I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled(贴标签)everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.
War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, "Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!" Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.
The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled(爬)under her covers, sobbing.
Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.
Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn't noticed Kate had sat up.
She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me "Thanks."
Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn't always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in ,cleaning up and holding on.
24. What made Kate angry one evening?
A. She heard the author shouting loud.
B. She saw the author's shoes beneath her bed.
C. She got the news that her grandma was ill.
D. She couldn't find her books.
25. The author tidied up the room most probably because___.

B. she hated herself for being so messy
C. she was scared by Kate's anger
D. she wanted to show her care
26. How is paragraph one mainly developed?

C. By analyzing causes. D. By following time order.
27. What might be the best title for the story?

C. My Friend Kate D. Learning to Be Roommates

Compared to people with bad attitudes, people who are cheerful and relaxed are less likely to suffer from colds, according to a new study. “It’s possible that being upbeat helps the body fight illnesses,” says psychologist Sheldon Cohen, the study’s lead researcher.
In a previous study, Cohen and his colleagues put cold-causing viruses into the noses of 334 healthy adults. People who tended to be cheerful and lively were least likely to develop cold symptoms and were also less likely to mention symptoms to their doctors, even when medical tests discovered those symptoms.
Those findings could explain the role positive feelings played, but it was still possible that a person’s personality is what matters. Evidence suggests that certain people are naturally more likely to be outgoing and optimistic. This would mean that who we are, not how we feel, decides our chances of catching colds.
To figure out which mattered more, the team interviewed 193 healthy adults. The researchers interviewed each person over the phone every evening for 2 weeks. At the end of the interviewing period, people got nose drops that contained either cold or flu viruses. Then, each person stayed in an isolated(隔离的)room for 5 or 6 days.
The results showed that everyone in the study was equally likely to get infected. Their symptoms, however, differed depending on the types of emotions that they had reported over the previous 2 weeks. Among those who reported good moods and had been infected with the flu virus, 28 percent developed coughs and stuffy noses. On the other hand, those symptoms struck 41
percent of people who had been less cheerful.
Scientists argue about whether negative emotions or positive emotions have a stronger impact on how healthy we are. For now, it won’t hurt to look on the bright side more often than not!
28. The underlined word “upbeat” in the first paragraph probably means
A. independent B. optimistic
C. strong D. friendly
29. In the previous study, researchers found that _______.
A. cheerful people didn’t get infected with cold viruses
B. a person’s attitude determined whether he would get sick
C. medical tests couldn’t find cold symptoms in cheerful people
D. a cheerful attitude may reduce the chances of getting ill
30. During the study, 193 healthy adults were told to report _____.
A. their daily state of health B. their daily activities
C. the feelings they experienced every day D. any cold symptoms that appeared every day
31. It can be inferred that a person’s _______ has a big effect on how healthy we are.
A. emotional state B.exercise method C. personality D. age
D
Each year on Halloween,children look forward to trick-or-treating(不请客就捣乱)for candies. But for some kids, eating Halloween candies can be dangerous.
That's because one out of every 13 kids in the Us have a food allergy(过敏症). They are allergic to ingredients(成份) in many Halloween candies, such as peanuts, tree nuts, milk, eggs, and beans. If they eat these foods, they will get sick or even die.
“I had to throw away all my candies with tears,” eight-year-old Conlen said. Conlen is allergic to peanuts, tree nuts, and dairy.Twelve-year-old Kylie is allergic to peanuts and tree nuts. She has been trick-or-treating only twice. “I brought my candies home and gave them to the neighbors," Kylie said. "It felt terrible."
But this year, Conlen, Kylie and other kids with food allergies will have a chance for a happy Halloween .That's because nearly100,000 households across the US have promised to take part in the Teal Pumpkin Project (TPP), which was started last year by Food Allergy Research & Education (FARE). FARE is an organization that works to improve the lives of people with food
allergies. Through the project, the households agree to have nonfood items for trick-or-treaters,including trinkets(小饰品) and toys.
To take part in the project, people buy a teal (蓝绿色) pumpkin or paint a pumpkin teal and place it in front of their house. The painted pumpkins let trick-or-treaters know that nonfood items are available there. The households also add their home addresses to an online map, making it easier for trick-or-treaters to find them.
Kylie loves the idea.“The TPP makes Halloween fun and safe,”she said.“It makes me feel like a normal kid, and it makes everyone feel included.”
32.To Conlen and Kylie, the past Halloween were ________________.
A. sick and terrible B. upsetting and dangerous
C. interesting and special D. important and exciting
33.According to the passage, we know that FARE_____________.
A. helps the households take part in the TPP
B. takes action to change kids’ bad eating habits
C. helps kids with food allergies have a happy Halloween
D. helps people with food allergies recover
34.The households help kids with food allergies by____________.
A. offering them all kinds of food except candies
B. providing them with trinkets and toys as treats
C. giving them teal pumpkins as gifts
D. asking them for home addresses and sending them gifts
35.Where is the passage most probably taken from?
A. An advertisement for an organization. B. A news report on cultures and customs.
C. A magazine about the history of festivals. D. A research paper on kid’s health.

One of the easiest things in the world is to become a fault-finder. However, life can be 41 when you are not busy finding fault with it.
Several years ago I 42 a letter from seventeen-year-old Kerry, who described herself as a world-class fault-finder, almost always 43 by things. People were always doing
things that annoyed her, and 44 was ever good enough. She was highly self-critical and also found fault with her friends. She became a really 45 person.
Unfortunately, it took a horrible accident to change her 46 . Her best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash. What made it almost 47 to deal with was that the day before the 48 , Kerry had visited her friend and had spent the whole time criticizing her 49 of boyfriends, the way she was living, the way she related to her mother, and various other things she felt she needed to 50 . It wasn’t until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became 51 her habit of finding fault. Very quickly, she learned to appreciate life rather than to 52 everything so harshly(刻薄). She was able to transfer her new wisdom to other parts of her 53 as well.
Perhaps most of us aren’t as extreme at fault-finding, 54 when we’re honest, we can be sharply 55 of the world. I’m not suggesting you 56 problems, or that you pretend things are 57 than they are, but simply that you learn to allow things to be as they are — 58 most of the time, and especially when it’s not a really big 59 .
Train yourself to "bite your tongue", and with a little 60 , you’ll get really good at letting things go. And when you do, you’ll get back your enthusiasm and love for life.

Dear Sir/Madam,
Having learnt with delight that the 2019 Winter Camp is to be held, I’m writing to apply to take part in it.
I have been longing to participate in such activities for high school students. Besides, being interested in English culture, I am eager to make friends with young people throughout the world and get my horizon broadened. As an out-going boy with fluent English, I have no trouble in communicating with foreign friends. However, I find no detailed information in your advertisement. I would like to know when the camp starts and ends exactly. Moreover, what special activities are offered for students?
Hopefully I can be admitted and I would appreciate it greatly if you take me into consideration.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
