Teams of four, dressed in a variety of strange and funny clothes , roll a complete cheese along a 50-metre course. On the way, they must not kick or throw their cheese, or go into their competitors' lane.The chief prize of the competition is a complete Stilton cheese weighing about four kilos (disappointingly, but understandably the cheeses used in the race are wooden ones). ‎ Fiery Foods Festival—The Hottest Festival on Earth Every year more than 10,000 people head for the city of Albuquerque, New Mexico. They come from as far away as Australia, the Caribbean and China, but they all share a common addiction—food that is not just spicy(辛辣的) ,but hot enough to make your mouth burn, and your eyes water. Their destination is the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival which is held over a period of three days every March. You might like to try a chocolate-covered pepper—officially the hottest pepper in the world—or any one of the thousands of products that are on show. But one thing's for sure—if you don't like the feeling of a burning tongue, this festival isn't for you!‎ La Tomatina—The World's Biggest Food Fight On the last Wednesday of every August, the Spanish town of Bunol hosts Ea Tomatina—the world's largest food fight.

Police said the children were attacked at the family's apartment Monday night.‎ In the recording released Wednesday, the woman identified herself as Saiqa Akhter and repeatedly told the operator she killed her two children. At one point, the woman hung up and the dispatcher(调度员) called her back.‎ ‎"I killed both of them. I told you," she told the operator. Later, she explained that both children were lying motionless on the bed in the master bedroom.‎ ‎"They are not doing anything. They are just blue and they are not taking any breaths and ... their heart is not beating," she said.‎ She told the operator she initially tried to poison the children with bathroom cleaner but they refused to drink it. When that didn't work, "I used a wire on their necks," she said.‎ When the operator asked the woman why she attacked her children, she said, "They're both not normal, not normal. They're autistic. Both are autistic." Pressed further, she said, "I don't want my children to be like that. ... I want normal kids."‎ Later, the dispatcher asked the woman what she was feeling. "Nothing," she responded.‎ At one point, water could be heard running in the background and the dispatcher asked what the woman what she was doing.

Harris and Keith Robinson have found.‎ ‎“We need to do away with the assumption（假设）that anything parents do will help. That assumes that parents have all the answers, but actually they don’t,” Harris said.‎ ‎“We found that when parents from various racial and socioeconomic groups regularly helped their child with homework, in most cases, it made no difference for the child’s improvement in their test scores in reading, math, and their grades,” Robinson said.‎ Could the findings simply reflect the fact that kids struggling with school ask for more homework help, thus making it look as though children who get more help do worse? No, Harris said, because the researchers measured the change in achievement among all kids, including those who performed well in school. The effect of parental homework involvement was the same across the board.‎ ‎“Parents tend to hold the reins when it comes to how they’re going to help with homework without asking the child,” Robinson noted. “So maybe parents could ask kids, ‘Is what I’m doing helping you? How would you want me to help?’ In this way, kids may benefit more from parents’ help.”‎ Vicki Davis, a high school teacher, said she’s seen her share of parents doing the assignments for their kids, especially writing papers, or taking charge of important and big projects. Davis expects primary school students to get help from parents because they’re still learning study skills, and she doesn’t mind if older students talk “big picture” with their families about a project. But in general, parents should limit their involvement in making sure kids are completing their homework, she advised.‎ Kerry Lyons, a mother of five in Irvington, N.Y., said the research findings are a “huge relief.” Lyons works full time, so when she gets home, her kids—three kindergartners, one second-grader and one fourth-grader—are usually done with homework.‎ ‎9. It was found that parental homework involvement generally .‎ A. has a lasting effect B. has a poor effect C. has a negative effect D. has a significant effect ‎10. The underlined part “hold the reins” in Paragraph 5 can best be replaced by “ ”.‎ A. show up B. take control C. watch out D. get ready ‎11. Who does Vicki Davis want parents to help with homework?‎ A. High school students B. Students who perform poorly in school ‎ C. Students who are writing papers D. Primary school students ‎12. How did Kerry Lyons find the research findings? ‎ A. Exciting B. Surprising C. Disappointing D.Comforting ‎ D Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that were also enjoyed by the inhabitants (居民) of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants will become unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. It is important to think about the people of a destination (目的地) country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty.‎ ‎ Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country`s economy will suffer.‎ ‎ On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people will lose jobs. Businesses will also ‎ lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, broad roads, and other things needed by places of interest. For example, a five star tourism hotel needs as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel will lose money.‎ ‎ Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities (设施) as well, If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.‎ ‎13. Which of the following has most probably been discussed in the part that goes before this passage?‎ A. Building roads and hotels is necessary. B. Planning is very important to tourism. C. Support facilities are highly important. D. It is very important to develop tourism.‎ ‎14. Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT ____. A. a bad effect on other industries B. pressure (压力) on traffic C. over-crowdedness of places of interest D. a change of tourists customs 15.Not enough tourism can lead to ____. A. happiness of the inhabitants B. a rise in price and a fall in pay C. the lower cost of support facilities D. an increase of unemployment (失业)‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 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。‎ ‎ 16 Stock（股票）markets in Paris. London, Tokyo, Shanghai and New York are among the largest and most well-known. The stock, also called stock exchange, is a place where people can buy or sell shares of a factory of company. And each share means certain ownership of a factory or company.‎ ‎17 Some are rich, who want to get more money than they have. Others are not very rich, who buy stocks to try to become rich. 18 Of course, investing（投资）money in the stock market is not the safest way to make money. No one can tell exactly whether the shares will be doing well. The factory or company may do badly. 19 The stock may go up or down for a number of untold reasons. Everyone wants the stock to go up, but sometimes even if a factory of company does a good job, the stock may still go down.‎ No wonder going to the stock market is often compared to gambling（赌博）. 20 Factories and companies that need money are pleased that so many people are willing to gamble.
