How to save money to visit Shanghai Disneyland?
The “happiest place on earth” is a top destination on many families' bucket lists. But taking a vacation to Disney World can be difficult to do on a budget. There are some considerations that you can make to reduce the cost of your Disney World vacation.
1. Buy Souvenirs in Advance
Disney has influenced practically every industry, which makes it easy to find Disney items anywhere, from Walmart, Target, and your local grocery store to department stores and Amazon. You can save a lot of money by purchasing items before your trip at these less-expensive places than at Disneyland.
2. Make an Autograph Book
An autograph book is seen as a must-have by many Disneyland enthusiasts and is a memory you can take home with you. These books can cost anywhere from $7.95 to $19.95 at the Disney Store and up to $30 for the latest-and-greatest autograph book at Disneyland, such as the park's 60th anniversary edition. Other choices can get the job done for under $5. For example, you can buy a small photo album; cute pads or notebooks.
3. Eat Breakfast Before You Arrive
Breakfast is almost as pricey as lunch or dinner if you eat inside the Disneyland parks. If you have a hotel with a free breakfast, take advantage of it. If you want to eat out, eat at a local restaurant that is inexpensive or has a kids' menu, such as McDonald's which is close to the park.
4. Take Advantage of Discounts Offered to Special Groups
Disney offers a wide variety of discounts, including for military service members, college students, teachers, and youth groups. If you think you might qualify for a special discount or group rate, call the Disneyland Resort to book tickets.
21. It may take you more money to buy souvenirs at_____.
A. Disneyland B. Department stores C. Walmart D. Amazon
22. How much do you pay for the park's 60th anniversary edition?
A. $7.95 B. $19.95 C. $5 D. $30
23. What is one piece of the author’s advice on breakfast?
A. You had better eat at Disneyland.
B. You can eat at a local restaurant.
C. You should prepare it well at home .
D. You can ask the hotel to supply it for free.
B
Schools across the world are trying to come up with solutions to keep students active. Some are replacing traditional classroom chairs with exercise balls or standing desks. At Ward Elementary School in Winston, North Carolina students have adopted a new program that requires riding fixed bikes while reading.
‘Read and Ride’ is the creation of school counselor Scott Ertl, who came up with the idea while he was exercising and reading at the gym. Believing it would be a fun way to convince students to become more active, he placed one in the corner of his classroom and encouraged them to use it during independent reading classes.
It was so popular that Ertl decided to add more bikes and offer the Read and Ride program to the entire school. Today Ward Elementary has a dedicated exercise room filled with bikes that can be used by students while completing their daily reading assignments.
Besides making reading more fun, the program also helps students exercise at a comfortable pace without the pressure that comes with regular sports-related activities. It is also a perfect way
to release energy during days when the weather is not helpful to outdoor activities.
Most importantly, however, are the program’s academic benefits. A year after Read and Ride was introduced at Ward Elementary School, students actively involved in the program demonstrated an astonishing 83% reading proficiency. Those that had not taken advantage of the exercise bikes tested at a much lower, 41%.
Though the substantial improvement in academic achievement cannot all be attributed to programs like Read and Ride, experts believe they are a significant contributor. That’s because studies have shown that physical activity stimulates（刺激） brain cells and helps prepare it for learning. As word of the difference made by this easy to execute exercise program spreads, don’t be surprised to find schools across the country adopt “Read and Ride” for their students.
24. What is the new program at Ward Elementary School?
A. Kids ride bikes as they read.
B. Kids excise balls and read at the gym.
C. Kids sit at desks for long while reading.
D. Kids do outdoor activities during lessons.
25. How do the students at Ward Elementary School benefit from the program?
A. They exercise with high pressure.
B. They feel reading fun and learn better.
C. They improve their sense of competition.
D. They are instructed to read at the same pace.
26. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. The program will be more and more popular.
B. Schools doubt whether the program is available.
C. Physical activities prevent kids from learning more.
D. The school achievement depends wholly on the program.
27. What would be the best title of the passage?
A. Standing desks help school kids focus on their studies.
B. Traditional teaching should be banned in the near future.
C. ‘Read And Ride’ aims to make students healthier and smarter.
D. Kids need release energy during independent reading classes.
C
Something I enjoy doing most in my leisure time is going to the cinema to watch a great film.
It's two hours of relaxation and escapism from real life. But when I kick back in my seat to enjoy the film and tuck into my box of popcorn, I'm often irritated by seeing someone next to me texting on their mobile phone or worse still, talking to someone.
It's no surprise that a proposal by a US cinema chain to let people use their phones during some film screenings was met with such anger, that the company had to withdraw the idea. People said it was 'the worst idea ever'! Surely, going to watch the latest film is just that – watching not multi-screening. And if you're out with a friend it seems very antisocial or just rude. I certainly get distracted by the click-click on someone's mobile keyboard as they text and the glow of the bright small phone screen – why aren't they concentrating on the big screen?!
But with the availability of streaming films at home and cheap DVDs, cinemas are struggling to keep their customers. Some places now offer comfortable seats with complimentary snacks and drinks so maybe trying to attract a younger audience by allowing the use of mobile phones is the way forward? A survey in 2012 found that a majority of 18-to-34-year-olds believed using social media while watching a movie would add to their experience.
However, not every young person wants to multi-task at the movies. Many of us still get annoyed by the theatre staff who appear not to do anything about it. Of course, we could ask the offenders to turn their phones off but as Adam Aron, head of AMC Entertainment, said in Variety magazine, “when you tell a 22-year-old to turn off the phone, don't ruin the movie, they hear ‘please cut off your left arm above the elbow’.” Clearly this is not what I would like to see but if you want to use your mobile phone in the cinema that I’m at, please don’t sit next to me! What do you think is the right thing to do?
28. The underline word “irritated” in Paragraph 1 means _________.
A. terrified B. depressed C. annoyed D. embarrassed
29. Which of the following is True of the US cinema chain’s original advice?
A. The advice was carried out smoothly.
B. They permitted people to use the phone.
C. The advice was very popular with people.
D. They prohibited people to use the phone.
30. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?
A. Young people use their social media frequently.
B. The cinema needn’t worry about their customers.
C. People prefer to watch films and DVD at home.
D. Sending messages is the best experience for young people.
31. What is the author’s attitude towards multi-task at the movies?
A. Sympathy. B. Encouragement. C. Enthusiasm. D. Disapproval.
D
In general, people talk about two groups of colors: warm colors and cool colors. The warm colors are red, orange, and yellow. Where there are warm colors and a lot of light, people usually want to be active. The cool colors are green, blue, and violet. These colors, unlike warm colors, are relaxing. Where there are cool colors, people are usually quiet. People who like to spend time alone often prefer blue.
Red may be exciting, but one researcher says that time seems to pass more slowly in a room with warm colors than in a room with cool colors. He suggests that a warm color, such as red or orange, is a good color for a living room or restaurant. People who are relaxing or eating, do not want time to pass quickly. Cool colors are better for offices or factories if the people who are working there want time to pass quickly.
Perhaps warm colors remind people of warm days and the cool colors remind them of cool days. People associate colors with different objects, feelings, and holidays. People say red is an exciting and active color. They associate red with a strong feeling like anger. Red is used for signs of danger, such as STOP signs and fire engines. The holiday which is associated with red is Valentine’s Day. Orange is the bright, warm color of leaves in autumn. People say orange is a lively, energetic color. They associate orange with happiness. The holidays which are associated with orange are Halloween in October and Thanksgiving Day in November. White is the color of snow. People describe white as a pure, clean color. They associate white with a bright clean feeling. On the other hand, black is the color of night. People wear black clothes at serious or formal ceremonies. Yellow is the color of sunlight. People say it is a cheerful and lively color. Green is the cool color of grass in spring. People say it is a refreshing and relaxing color. Machines in factories are usually painted light green. Blue is the color of the sky, water, and ice. Police and Navy uniforms are blue. When people are sad, they say “I feel blue.” They associate blue with feelings like unhappiness and fear.
If two objects are the same except for color, they will look different. Color can make an object look nearer or farther, larger or smaller. Bright objects look larger than dark objects. In conclusion, color is very important to people. Warm and cool colors affect how people feel. People choose products by color. Moreover, color affects how an object looks. It is even possible
that your favorite color tells a lot about you.
32. The people who prefer warm colors usually are ________.
A. quiet B. energetic C. angry D. relaxing
33. The fact that one family paints the living room a sunny yellow suggests ________.
A. people want to be quiet
B. people want to sleep slowly
C. people want time to pass more slowly
D. people associate colors with holidays
34. Why do doctors and nurses normally wear white uniforms?
A. Because white means pure and clean.
B. Because white means serious or formal.
C. Because they like the colour of snow.
D. Because they like wearing uniforms.
35. We may learn from the text that fat people who want to look slimmer should wear________ clothes.
A. blue B. dark C. white D. yellow

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
How to Sleep Better
If you’re having trouble getting good sleep through the night (turning, waking up more than once, for example), this text will tell you what you can do to ensure a peaceful night’s sleep.
1. Get on schedule. Changing your sleeping time by more than an hour can severely disturb your sleep quality. 36 For example, if you normally wake up at 6 am on weekdays to get to work, you might go to bed around 10 pm, because that’s when you start to feel sleepy, and it’s also a good time to ensure 8 hours of sleep. If, on the weekend, you sleep until 9 am, you probably won’t be able to fall asleep that night until 1 am.
2. Be mindful of what you eat or drink before bed. 37 Digestion slows down while asleep, and a full stomach may interrupt sleep. Similarly, you should avoid going to bed on an empty stomach, as a completely empty stomach may equally disturb your sleeping patterns.
3. 38 Exposure to light during the time when you’re supposed to be sleeping can destroy
your body’s internal clock. Turn your light off, or use a very dim（暗淡的） night light. 39 They include windows, LED clocks and computer lights.
4. Change your sleeping position. You may think that it’s impossible to control what position you sleep in since you aren’t fully aware of what you are doing，but it is possible and it can make a considerable difference. 40
A. Try to avoid all sources of light.
B. Keep the room as dark as possible.
C. Make note of unusual circumstances.
D. Wait at least three hours after dinner before going to sleep.
E. Sleep is considered to be adequate only when there is no daytime sleepiness.
F. In other words, sudden change of sleeping time will affect your “biological clock”.
G. If you wake up in the middle of the night, make an effort to have a comfortable position.

A Professor began his class by holding up a glass with some water in it. He held it up for all to 41 and asked the students “How much do you think this glass 42 ?”[来源:Zxxk.Com]
“50gms!” “100gms!” “125gms” the students answered..
“I really don’t know 43 I weigh it,” said the professor, “but, my question is: What would happen if I held it up like this for a 44 minutes?””
“Nothing” the students said..
“Ok, what would happen if I held it up like this for an hour?” the professor asked.
“Your arm would begin to 45 ” said one of the students.

“Your arm could 46 numb; you might have severe 47 stress and paralysis and have to go to 48 for sure!” ventured another student and all the students laughed.

Breaking up large classes into several smaller ones 61 (help) students, but the improvements in many cases come whatever teachers do, a new research suggests.
New 62 (finding) of the research from four nations, tell an interesting story. Small classes work for children, but that’s 63 because of how teachers teach, but because of what students feel they can do: get 64 (much) face time with their teachers, for instance, or work in small groups with classmates.
“These are the same as what researchers have already known,” Gamoran says. There is no good evidence 65 teachers change their instructions based on changes in class size. Teachers are always strict with their students. Some teachers are making use 66 small classes and others are not. There are a lot of differences. “It’s not like that you reduce classes so teachers do something different and the achievement is higher,” he says.
In one study, researchers 67 (close) watched students’ behaviours and found that students behaved better in smaller classes. They also 68 (have) more direct communication with teachers and worked more in small groups rather by themselves.
One team, 69 (lead) by Ronald Ehrenberg of Cornell University, finds that the potential benefits of class-size reduction “may be greater than what we observed” if only a few teachers change their teaching 70 (fit) the smaller group.

Thanks very much for your letter. I’d like to describe my sports dance lessons, which I recent took for the first time.
Every lesson starts a warm-up and different exercises. We stretch our muscles to prevent injuries or build up stronger muscles, too. After the warm-up, our teacher always teaches us the steps we have to dance. For a better understand, we dance these steps without music.
To dance for three hours without any break sounds very difficulty but if you enjoy dancing, you’ll get used to them. I really love sports dance because I can become very fit while having a fun. Although I have only spent a short times dancing, I feel much healthier and even a little thin now.
Did you go in for any sports?
I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Dear Tom,
I’m glad to hear that you are coming to China to learn Chinese in July. Here I’d like to tell you what I’ve rented for you.
The apartment is on the 5th floor in a building, which lies at the corner of Xinhua Road and Qingnian Road. It is convenient to live here, because on the opposite is just our school. In addition, both a supermarket and a bus stop are within 10 minutes’ walk from it. I’m sure you’ll like the apartment and the surroundings. If you have any other requests, please don’t hesitate to let me know. I’m willing to offer help whenever you have problems.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

W: I think my purse was stolen, sir.
M: Do you have any reason to believe that your purse was stolen?
W: Oh, yes. I left it on the table 20 minutes ago, and then I went to the restroom; but when I came back 15 minutes ago, it was gone.
M: Are you sure you left your purse on the table?
W: Of course, sir. I planned to pay the bill before I went to the restroom.
M: Is this your purse? We found it in the restroom.
W: Oh, yes, it is. I must have left it there and I totally forgot. Sorry.

W: Do you realize it’s November already? Before you know it, Thanksgiving will be here.
M: Gee, you’re right. It’s time we decided what we are going to do this year. Well, do you feel like inviting your sister and her family over? Otherwise, I’d like to invite my brother and his family.
W: I’d love to invite my sister’s family. After all, they invited us last year.
M: Good. That’s settled. Why don’t you give your sister a call and see if they can come?
W: Sure. Say, Randy, can you help me with the shopping? We need to get a turkey.
M: Right. Let’s get a nice big one, so we’ll have plenty of leftovers to make sandwiches with.

W: Do you have any other hobbies besides stamp collecting?
M: Yes, fishing. I go fishing twice a week.
W: That’s very popular, too. Every time I pass the lake, I see many people sitting there with fishing rods in their hands, but I’ve never seen anyone catch anything.
M: Maybe it’s because you lack patience.
W: Maybe you’re right. I went fishing once. I sat still about four hours and got nothing. I broke my rod and decided not to fish any more.
M: Oh, you didn’t have to do that. Look at that man. There must be a huge fish on the end of the line. Let’s go over and have a look.
W: OK. Wow, what a big fish!
M: So it is interesting to fish with a rod sitting at the lake. Say, what do you often do in your spare time?
W: Oh, nothing special. I read, watch TV and go to the movies.[来源:Z|xx|k.Com]

W: Good morning.
M: Good morning.
W: Mr. Wang, can you tell me something about your work experience?
M: Yes, I worked as a bank clerk for three years in the Bank of China. I must say that it was a good job.
W: Why did you leave that job, since it was such a good job?
M: I didn’t really want to, but my family had to move to another city, so I left the bank.
W: What did you do after that?
M: I worked for a private company for six months and then I did a one-year full-time course in Finance and Trade.
W: What’s your best quality?
M: Um, my best quality? Well, I think I’m a hard-working and responsible person. I guess those are my best qualities.
W: That is good. The position you applied for requires those qualities.
M: Yes, a good sales manager should work hard and be responsible.
W: Yet we want an experienced person! And you haven’t worked in this position before.
M: That is true. However, my advantage is that I am ambitious, and eager to do this job well. I believe I am the most suitable person for the job.
W: OK! What are your salary requirements?
M: Well, five to six thousand per month.
W: OK! We will inform you when we make a decision.

Bob and Don both needed some new clothes for school and they decided to go shopping together in the new department store.
First, the two friends went to the men’s department to see the suits. The salesman helped them find the right size and they each tried on several suits. Bob found a light gray suit and he bought it. Don finally chose a blue suit. The boys also bought two pairs of trousers each.
Next, they went to the shoe department opposite the men’s department. The clerk measured their feet and brought each of them several pairs of shoes to try on. It didn’t take them very long to
get their shoes. They didn’t really need socks, but they decided to buy several pairs.
While Don went to the shirt department, Bob went to buy a sweater. It only took Don a few minutes to choose some shirts, and then he went to the sweater department to meet his friend. Bob tried on every sweater in his size, but none of them looked good on him.
The boys intended to go to the movies before going home. But after they paid for all their new clothes, they had only enough money to ride home on the bus.
