Regent's Park Open Air Theatre,London
Each summer, almost 140,000 people visit the park to watch one of the four yearly plays. The schedule includes J. M. Barrie’s Peter Pan and William Golding’s Lord of the Flies this year.
With the stage and seating both completely open, the actors and the audience are unable to do anything to escape the British weather. However, it hasn’t prevented stars such as Zoë Wanamaker, Jeremy Irons and Benedict Cumberbatch from performing here.

Pumpkins (南瓜) have all shapes and sizes, and have colors of golden orange, white and green. Cooked in a pie, they are symbols of autumn that are grown in every county of Washington.
U.S. farmers grow more than a billion pounds of pumpkins every year, and many farmers use sheets (膜) of plastic blocking the grass and preventing water loss to make their plants grow well. In the country, farmers use about a billion pounds of plastic every year. Unfortunately, that plastic is thrown away finally, and in some areas, burned in the fields.
For several years, Carol Miles has studied a new product the soil-biodegradable (土壤生物降解的) plastic cover that can be left in the ground after harvest, then broken down by things in the soil. “You don’t need to pull it out of the field and throw it away every autumn, saving time and money,” Miles said.
Most pumpkins grow along vines (藤蔓) that spread through the grass-blocking cover, and Miles wanted to see how pumpkin fruit performed over the plastic cover. That brought a challenge: the soil-biodegradable cover stuck to the bottom of the fruit.
“We have a lot of dew (露水) in the morning, and we found that if we let the fruit dry after harvest, the cover would stick more strongly to the pumpkins,” Miles said. “Nobody wants plastic stuck to pumpkins, even if it's biodegradable. But if you wipe the fruit before the dew dries, the plastic comes right off.”
Farmers who grow plants that don’t set fruit on plastic covers won’t meet this challenge. For those who do, it means an extra step that they”ll have to weigh against advantages and disadvantages for the development.
“Challenges aside, working with this crop can bring on a happy picture,” the farmer Tymon said. “Pumpkins are great. They have bright colors, and are really fun to work with.”
【1】What’s the biggest problem of the old pumpkin growing skill?
A.Pumpkins have simple types. B.Pumpkins have a low output.
C.Farmers waste a lot of plastic. D.Farmers can’t avoid the water loss.
【2】Which of the following is the benefit of Mile’s new product?
A.It’s easy to use. B.It’s cheap to buy.
C.It’s environment-friendly. D.It’s good for most plants.
【3】What can farmers do to keep the plastic from sticking to pumpkins?
A.Wait till the plastic is broken down. B.Wipe the dew from the plastic cover.
C.Replace the plastic with other sheets. D.Clean the pumpkins when they’re wet.
【4】What is the main idea of the text?
A.New growing skills will be created. B.A new kind of plastic was invented.
C.Plastic influences the growth of pumpkins. D.U.S. farmers develop their favorite pumpkins.

A few years ago, I took a trip to New York City with my mom and my cousin. It was a girls’ weekend to celebrate my cousin’s upcoming wedding. We spent the morning shopping and stopped in a family-owned Italian restaurant. The woman who greeted us was the cook, and her elderly mother who'd started the restaurant was behind the counter (柜台). There were only five tables in the whole restaurant and we were the only customers.
We were chatting about what we wanted to do that night when my cousin suddenly stood up and pointed behind my mom and me. Black smoke started pouring from a staircase (楼梯) in the hallway that led to the businesses above that one. Thinking the floor above us must be on fire, my mom ran to the back to tell the cook, while we tried to convince the elderly Italian woman, who actually couldn’t speak English, to come outside. She couldn’t see the smoke from her place behind the counter and just scolded (训斥) us in Italian.
Finally, my cousin physically picked the lady up. Thankfully, she was a tiny lady and my cousin was strong. We got her outside and she finally saw the smoke. My mom took her phone out to call the firemen, but someone else must have already done that because we heard the sirens (警报声) coming. The firetruck rounded the corner, nearly hitting the front end of a cab. The passengers in the back of the cab started screaming, but the driver looked calm.
Thankfully, no one was hurt. We didn’t find out what had caused the fire, but at least it didn’t spread beyond the second floor. The cook thanked us for helping them, and her mother kept hugging my cousin. The rest days were peaceful compared to that day, and I’ve always wanted to go back and see if that restaurant was still there.
【1】Where did the fire probably break out?
A.From the kitchen. B.From the hallway.
C.From a staircase. D.From the second floor.
【2】Why did the elderly Italian woman scold them?
A.She was easy to become angry. B.She mistook them for trouble makers.
C.She thought they were making noises. D.She didn’t need help from other people.
【3】What can we learn from the third paragraph?
A.The fire truck hit the cab at last. B.The cab driver called the firemen.
C.The fire truck arrived just in time. D.The passengers in the cab were injured.
【4】What can be the best title for the text?
A.I spent a weekend in New York City. B.What an unforgettable day it was.
C.A big fire destroyed a restaurant. D.How special a restaurant it was

Indian officials recently suggested weight guidelines (指南) for children’s school bags.The central government said the weight of the bag should depend on the age of the child. It advised all Indian states to set limits to meet the new guidance.
Indian officials have criticized (责备) schools for making students carry heavy school bags and giving young children homework.
Under the guidelines, no homework would be given to children in grades 1 and 2. This will make sure that the youngest students have no books to carry home. For students in grades 3 to 5, the weight of a school bag would never be more than three kilograms. And bags would never weigh more than five kilograms for students in grade 10.
The Indian government noted studies that showed how a heavy school bag could affect students’ soft and developing spines (脊柱). One study found that 68 percent of young children suffered from mild back pain. The mild pain can develop into long-term back pain and affect bones of the spinal column.
The study included more than 2,500 children between the ages of 7 and 13. It found that more than 88 percent of children carried more than 45 percent of their body weight on their backs.
Mumbai is the capital of the Indian state of Maharashtra. The state requires that a schoolbag’s weight should be not more than 10 percent of a child’s body weight. Many schools there have started using white boards and projectors in classes, which have reduced the number of books to be carried to school.
But in large parts of rural (乡村的) India, children still have to walk great distances, weighed down by heavy school bags. Some have to bring about 4-5 kilograms of books in their school bags and also carry lunch boxes and water bottles in other bags.
【1】Who are responsible for children’s heavy schoolbags according to Indian government?
A.Parents. B.Schools. C.Children. D.Lawmakers.
【2】What did the studies find?
A.Students’ school bags weighed half of their body weight.
B.88 percent of children suffered from back pain.
C.45 percent of children damaged their bones.
D.Heavy bags harmed most children.
【3】How heavy a bag is a child weighing 30 kg in Mumbai permitted to carry?
A.10 kg. B.15 kg. C.Less than 3 kg. D.Less than 5 kg.
【4】What do we know about the children in rural India?
A.They have fewer books to carry. B.They have to carry extra weight.
C.They have heavier homework. D.They have busier school life.

Most of us celebrate our birthday with birthday cakes. We probably sing a song, play some fun games, and maybe even open a few presents. Have you ever wondered exactly why we do these things, though?【1】
Most scholars point to the Bible as the earliest known reference to a birthday celebration.【2】Rather than the day Pharaoh was born, however, the celebration was probably held to remember the day when Pharaoh became the King.
It wasn’t until the time of ancient Rome that birthdays were celebrated for common people.【3】Women’s birthdays weren’t celebrated until about the 12th century.
Our modern birthday celebrations with a party and cake didn't come around until the late 18th century in Germany. In fact, Germany is usually considered the birthplace of the modern birthday cake. 【4】After the Industrial Revolution, however, cakes were cheaper and more widely available.
If you’re curious about when we started singing “Happy Birthday to You”,that didn’t happen until the 1920s.【5】It was a song written in 1893 by two teachers, Patty and Mildred Hill, for children to sing in the mornings. In 1924, Robert Coleman published a songbook in which he included “Good Morning to All” but changed the lyrics (歌词) to what we now know as “Happy Birthday to You”. It’s now considered the most recognizable song in English.
A.It mentions Pharaoh's birthday.
B.What is the most common birthday?
C.The song got its start as “Good Morning to All.”
D.When did birthday celebrations begin anyway?
E.Even then, these celebrations were limited to men.
F.So we were born on this day a certain number of years ago.
G.Early on, birthday cakes were usually only available to the wealthy.
