阅读理解

It's very important to spend time with families. Parents can really get to know their children, and children love spending time with their parents.

When it is breakfast, lunch or dinner, families can always get together at the table. Eating breakfast together is a good way to start the day. Families can also share the happenings of the day and plan for next day while eating dinner together. No matter what you do, you know your families best, so just find an activity that you can agree on and you must have fun!

If your families like movies, then take out a bowl of popcorn (爆米花) and put it on the table for families, and see a movie while eating the popcorn at weekends. After one-week work, families really want to relax and enjoy the quiet family time.

Going camping in the mountains and trees for the weekend is another good way to spend family time, and it's a great way to have a vacation, too!

① Man has known more and more about space today. Space is not only wonderful but also dangerous. While working in space, astronauts are facing danger. 

② Scientists have found out that radiation (辐射) is the greatest danger to astronauts in space. When astronauts are working in space, they are in danger of radiation from the sun and other stars, which is bad for their health. The damage of radiation is difficult to discover until their children or even grandchildren are born. Some special medicine may work a little, but there isn't really helpful medicine. 

③ Space rubbish is also a great danger to astronauts. There are 9000 man-made (人造) things flying in space. About 30% of these are man-made satellites (卫星), 10% are spaceships, and others are space rubbish. Even a small piece of these knocked against a spaceship window and did some damage. Scientists are watching and telling any possible danger all the time. They are working on helpful ways to do with space rubbish. 

④ Although space is really dangerous, everyone on the earth is interested in it. In the near future, it may become usual for people to spend a few days in a space hotel. We may even choose to leave the earth and live in space for a few years. So we should care for space and do something to help improve the space environment.

 阅读A、B、C、D四篇材料, 然后从各小题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。

Feng Boyao and MengShuqi found that their city library didn't have enough Braille books for blindpeople and many of the Braille books were out of date. 

So, they teamed up to help the blind by fixing the problem. Feng and Meng both studied at No.37 MiddleSchool in Taiyuan, Shanxi province. They invented a new kind of Braille reader. Their work won first prize ina national competition aiming to nurture creative thinking by encouraging youths to solve social problems. The invention was also granted(授予)a national patent(专利). When connected to a computer, their Braillereader can turn words into raised dots(凸起的点). Blind people can read by touching the dots, which aremagnets(磁铁). This is the first Braille reader that uses magnets. 

"We found that today's Braille readers are very difficult and expensive," Feng said. "So, we decided todevelop a user-friendly product, especially for young blind children from grades1 to 3. Moreover, it only costsabout 2000 yuan."

After making their first device, Feng and Meng visited a school for the blind to get advice and improvedit based on the students' needs, like changing the size of the screen and the amount of space between the dots. "We hope the invention will be popularized(普及)in the future to help those blind people who can't affordthe Braille reader now," Meng told Taiyuan News.

Do you like exercise? Do you know something about plan k exercise(平板支撑)?

Plank exercise has become more and more popular in recent years. It requires little time. It's easy to do. What's more, doing plan k exercise often may bring you lots of benefits(益处). 

Performing plan k exercise as a daily home exercise before or after school will not only speed up your metabolism(新陈代谢), but also keep your metabolic rate high all day long. Doing the exercise often will make you burn lots of calories. This is especially useful if you have to sit in the classroom for hours every day. A high metabolic rate will help you lose weight and keep in good shape. 

Have you ever tried standing on one leg? You couldn't stand straight for more than ten seconds, right? It's not because you are drunk, of course. Instead, it's because your muscles(肌肉) aren't strong enough to give you the balance you need. Doing plank exercise often will improve your balance. Stronger muscles will also help you stand with straight posture(姿势) at all times. 

 ▲  Just think about it: You are sitting in your chair, at home or at school, all day long. Your muscles get tired, and your legs get heavy. Plank exercise will relax the muscle groups that may cause stress in the body. As a result, it can have a powerful and good influence on our mental(精神的) health. 

Considering all the benefits of plank exercise, will you make it part of your daily life?
