16、Ranger Program. BFor most people, life is never easy. Thats especially true for high school students.Not only do you have the stress and worry of schoolwork to deal with, you also have many problems of daily life to face. Take the relationship you have with your parents for example. When you were at
17、 primary school, your parents were probably your heroes. Whatever they did and whatever they said were always so interesting and funny, but as you grew older its likely that you and your parents began to grow apart from each other. Their jokes began to sound awkward , and the last thing youd want to
18、 do is to walk in the park holding hands with them. This is just one of the natural parts of growing older.Life has many difficult stages, but the teenage years are probably the ones that are filled with the most problems. As this is the time of life when we begin to turn into adults, lots of new is
19、sues arise.Now, you cant just rely on your parents to do everything for you- you must be responsible for yourself and your own actions. At the same time, as your body begins to develop, problems arise that you never knew existed. Things like being worried about how you look in front of others soon b
20、ecome daily concerns.While all this is happening, you have to plan for your future. As you come to the end of your school years, you have to make some really big decisions.So yes- being a teenager is really challenging, and you probably have varieties of questions that need answers to. How do you de
21、cide whether you should follow the wishes of your parents, or your own? Which career is the most suitable to you and your background?24. Who is the passage written for?A. Parents. B. Teachers. C. High school students. D. Graduates from university.25. From the example of relationship between “you” an
22、d “your parents”, what can we know?A. You and your parents begin to grow apart. B. Your parents couldnt tell interesting stories any more.C. You only want to walk in the park with your friends. D. You are having many difficulties of daily life to deal with.26. If there is another paragraph, what wil
23、l be talked about?A. More questions for teenagers. B. The ways to deal with common questions.C. The relationship between you and your parents. D. Other questions in your new life.27.

24、ies make your life harder. D. Parents are not the ones that you can depend on.CEvery festival has its own meaning. Labour Day, for example, celebrates the value of hard work, Thanksgiving is about showing thanks to people around you. And Valentines Day is a time when you express love to your loved o
25、nes. But somehow it now seems that in all festivals we just care about one thing - shopping. And that can be a big problem.“ In a way, over-consumption (过度消费) is the mother of all our environmental problems,” Kalle Lasn once told CNN. Lasn is the organizer of Buy Nothing Day, a day set up in Canada
26、in 1992 to fight against unhealthy spending habits, and has now become an international event. Its held on the day, which is known as Black Friday - a famous shopping day in the US and Canada. You can see the irony(讽刺) here.Even though the idea of Buy Nothing Day was brought up 28 years ago, we seem
27、 to need it now more than ever. Its just as Lasn said, all the different kinds of pollution in our lives today- bad air quality, the reduction of forest area, endangered animal species, and plastic bags found in the ocean- seem to be the same cause: over-consumption.The latest example is the Singles
28、 Day shopping craze of Nov. 11, which saw a new sales record. But as Nie Li, a campaigner at Greenpeace, told Reuters. “Record-setting over-consumption means record-setting waste. And it was reported that last year the Singles Day packages left more than 160,000 tons of waste, including plastic and
29、cardboard. The Collins Dictionary has also just named “single-use” its Word of the Year, pointing out the problem that therere too many things we throw away after only using them once. So, Buy Nothing Day might only be here for one day a year, but its not just to remind us of a break from shopping o
30、n that day, but to change our lifestyle completely, focusing on fun “with people we care about” rather than wasting money on useless things.28. Whats the writers purpose of writing the first paragraph?A. To express the peoples love for all festivals.B. To talk about the meaning of the festivals.C. T
31、o bring out the topic of the passage.D. To appreciate the value of the festivals. 29. Why did Kalle Lasn organize Buy Nothing Day?A. To help people save money. B. To cut the cost for daily life.C. To set up a new sales record. D. To prevent over-consumption.30. Whats Nie Lis attitude towards the sho
32、pping craze?A. Positive. B. Negative. C. Unknown. D. Neutral (中立的)31. What might be a suitable title for the passage?A. Buy Nothing Day B. Creating a new lifestyle C. Festivals around the world D. A change in peoples lifeDWhy play games? Because they are fun, and a lot more besides.Following the rul
33、es，planning yournextmove and acting as a team member are all game ideas that you will come across throughout your life. Think about some of the games you played as a young child, such as rope-jumping and hide-and-seek. Such games are entertaining and fun.But perhaps more importantly,they translate l
34、ife into exciting dramasthat teach children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow the rest of their lives, such as taking turns and cooperating(合作). Many childrens games have a practical side. Children around the world play games that prepare themfor work they will do as grown-ups.
35、 For instance, some Saudi Arabian children play a game called bones, which sharpens the hand-eye coordination (协调) needed in hunting. Many sports encourage national or local pride. The most famous games of all, the Olympic Games,bring athletes from around the world together to take part in friendly
36、competition. People who watch theevent wave flags, knowing that a gold medal is a win for an entire country, not just the athlete who earnedit.For countries experiencing natural disasters or war, an Olympic win can mean so much. Sports are also an event that unites people. Soccer is the most popular
37、 sport in the world. People onall continents play it - some for fun and some for a living. Nicolette Iribarne, a Californian soccer player, has discovered a way to spread hope through soccer. He created a foundation to provide poor children withnot only soccer balls but also a promising future. Next
