We wanted to study how students at our school spend money. In order to study this, we made some questions to ask our classmates. First, we asked our classmates how much money they spent in one month. Then we asked how much money they spent on things like drinks, music, books, movies, computer games, and other things. Our math teacher helped us make a graph of our classmates’ answers.
Then we thought it would be interesting to compare these answers with our classmates’ expenses from last year. We used their answers to make another graph for their expenses last year.
Looking at the two graphs, it is easy to compare the expenses for the two years. Some of their expenses increased, but others decreased. This was a very interesting project for us.
注:⑴ graph 图表  ⑵ expense消耗,消费
 
小题1: What did the students spend most of their money on?
A.Books.B.Movies.C.Drinks and snacks.D.Computer games.
小题2:Which expense of the students’ stayed the same?
A.CDs.B.Phone costs.C.Others.D.Transportation.
小题3:What does the word “decrease” mean?

小题4:What did the students spend the same money on last year?

小题5:Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the graph?
A.Students spent the least money on e-mail and phone costs this year.
B.Students spent the same money on movies and transportation this year.
C.The expenses on e-mails and phones increased from 10% to 16% this year.
D.The expenses on others decreased from 9% to 4% this year.

答案

小题1:C
小题2:D
小题3:A
小题4:A
小题5:A
解析

1. C 由图可以看出第一项Drinks and snacks的长度最长比例最大,故选C。
2. D 本题问的是比例一样大的。很明显今年和去年持平的是交通方式14%,故选D。
3. A 此题是猜词,由上句Some of their expenses increased(有的消费增加了),可知下句说的是有些消费减少了,是个反义词,故选A。
4. A 本题问的是去年持平的项目,看白线。不难看出是Books& Others,都是9%,故选A。
5. A 看图中的黑色线,是others最少只占4%,故A错选A。

In most parts of the world, many students help their school make less pollution. They join in “environment(环境) clubs”. In an environment club, people work together to make our environment clean.
Here are the things students often do.
Turn off the water! Do you know that some toilets can waste(浪费) twenty to forty tons of water an hour?
In a year, that would fill a small river! In environment clubs, students mend those broken toilets.
No-car day. On a no-car day, nobody comes to school in a car—not the students and not the teachers! Cars give pollution to our air, so remember:
Walk, jump, bike or run.
Use your legs! It’s lots of fun!
No-garbage(垃圾) lunches. How much do you throw away after lunch? Environment clubs ask students to bring their lunches in bags that can be used again. Every week they will choose the classes that make the least garbage and report them to the whole school!
We love our environment. Let’s work together to make it clean!

   Many people are so busy these days that they have no time to cook at home. This becomes a problem because most families love home cooking! The food tastes good and a family meal can bring everyone together. In some families, meals are often the only chance everyone gets to see each other at the same time during the day.
Another reason people enjoy home cooking is that it is a way of showing love. A parent who makes some cookies is not just satisfying a child’s sweet tooth. He or she is sending a message (信息). The message says, “I care about you enough to spend an hour making cookies that you will eat up in 15 minutes if I let you.” There is also something about the smell of home cooking. The smell of cooking makes people happy. It makes most of us feel good and loved--even if we’re the ones doing the cooking! Next time you smell a cake making, stop for a moment and pay attention to your mood (心情,心境).
小题1:Why do many people have no time to cook?

Look! There are thousands of people waiting to buy tickets home in the railway station. Each time when Spring Festival comes, buying tickets of train trip would be very hard. And things seem to be getting worse and worse, although we have greatly increased the mileage of railway network and speeded up trains. Why? It’s because too many people want to go back home to spend Spring Festival with their family. Many people become angry with the Ministry (部)of Railways.
They wonder why it is hopeless for them to get the tickets from the railway station(火车站)Instead, they sometimes can only buy them from ticket scalpers (票贩) at much higher price.
The Ministry of Railways estimated(估计)that about 188 million passengers would travel by train during the 40-day peak (高峰) period surrounding the 2009 Spring Festival holiday.

Are you carrying too much on your back at school? You’re not alone. Back experts in the United States are worried that young students are having back and neck problems as a result of carrying too much in their backpacks (schoolbags)
“It hurts my back when I run,”said Oberlin Reyes, a student in Virginia. “It’s hard to go up the stairs with my backpack,because it’s too heavy,”
Oberlin was among students whose backpacks were weighed for a week in a recent study.
They had regular backpacks with two straps(带子)to carry them, but a number of students with heavy loads had switched to rolling backpacks (which have wheels and can roll on the ground).
Shirley Park, whose backpack weighed 10 kilograms,said she changed to a rolling backpack because she was starting to have back  pain.
How much is too much?Experts say students should carry no more than 10 to 15 percent of their own body weight.
A few students had one suggestion to lighten the load:less homework.
P.S.( 附)Doctor’s suggestion:
1 Lighten the load. Clean out binders(活页材料)and take home only the books you need that night.
2 Wide straps are better. They send out the weight over your shoulders more evenly(均匀)。 And be sure to wear both straps rather than hanging the pack over one shoulder.
3. Pack smart. The heavier things should be packed closed to the back.
4.Bend both knees when you pich up the pack ,and don’t just bend over  at the waist.(腰)
