Satellites are an important part of our ordinary lives.For example，the information for weather forecasts is sent by satellite.Some satellites have cameras which take photographs of the Earth to show how clouds are moving.Satellites are also used to connect our international phone calls.
   Computer connections of the World Wide Web and Internet also use satellites.Many of our TV programmes come to us through satellite.Airplane pilots sometimes also use a satellite to help them find their exact location.
   We use satellites to send television pictures from one part of the world to another.They are usually 35，880 kilometres above the equator（赤道）.Sometimes we can see a satellite in the sky and it seems to stay in the same place.This is because it is moving around the world at 11，000 kilometres an hour-exactly the same speed that the earth rotates（轉(zhuǎn)動(dòng)）.A satellite must orbit the Earth with its antennae（天線） facing the earth.Sometimes，it moves away from its orbit，so there are little rockets on it which are used to put the satellite back in the right position.This usually happens about every five or six days.
   Space is not empty!Every week，more and more satellites are sent into space to orbit the Earth.A satellite usually works for about 10-12 years.Satellites which are broken are sometimes repaired by astronauts or sometimes brought back to the Earth to be repaired.Often，very old or broken satellites are left in space to orbit the Earth for a very long time.This is very serious because some satellites use nuclear power and they can crash into each other.

（1）What is the best title of the passage？
D
D

A．How computer connections benefit from satellites.
B．How we can get television pictures.
C．What astronauts do in space.
D．What satellites can do for us.
（2）What's the speed the earth rotates at？
C
C

A．35，880 kilometres per hour.
B．335，880 kilometres per hour.
C．11，000 kilometres per hour.
D．110，000 kilometres per hour.
（3）What does the underlined word "This" in the 3rd paragraph refer to？
C
C

A．A satellite.
B．A little rocket.
C．A satellite seems to stay in the same place in the sky.
D．The satellite puts the rockets in the right position.

1．    Reading is a complex and crucial skill that impacts the youth's ability to perform as students.Therefore，it's important to develop reading skills during childhood.A team of researchers focused on the effect of whole-body learning in instruction，known as embodied learning.
    The research included 149 children，aged 5 to 6，who had just started school.They were divided into three groups：one that stood up and used their whole bodies to shape letter sounds；a seated group that shaped letter sounds with their hands and arms；and a control group that received traditional，seated instruction during which they wrote letters by hand.
    "Our research showed that children who used their whole bodies to shape the sounds of letters became twice as proficient at letter sounds that are more difficult to learn as those who received traditional instruction" says PhD student Linn Damsgaard of UCPH's Department of Nutrition，Exercise and Sports.
    With regard to difficult letter sounds，she adds， "There are many difficult letter sounds in Danish.These sounds are particularly important because once children become skilled at them，they will be better readers.
    Associate professor Jacob Wienecke，who led the study，explains，the primary goal is to learn more about which methods can be used to give beginner readers a good start.The idea is that if，through play and movement，we can learn where their strengths truly lie，we'll create a form of learning that combines reading with play，and that's truly positive."
    Previously，the researchers showed that the children felt more motivated by teaching methods which included physical movement.Jacob Wienecke hopes this will provide an opportunity to inspire teachers and school managers to prioritize movement across subjects.
    The study also investigated whether a direct effect of embodied learning could be found on children's reading of words.This was not possible，which might be due to the fact that the children were at such an early stage of their literacy development that they could not yet use their knowledge of letter sounds to read words.

（1）What were the participants required to do in the study？

A．To pick out difficult letter sounds in Danish.
B．To learn new letters through repeated writing.
C．To learn letter sounds using different approaches.
D．To memorize some letter sounds as soon as possible.
（2）How can embodied learning get children actively involved？

A．By combining learning with games.
B．By offering them chances to cooperate.
C．By inspiring them to overcome difficulties.
D．By explaining instructions to them patiently.
（3）What does the underlined word "proficient" in Paragraph 3 probably mean？

A．terrible.
B．skilled.
C．delighted.
D．fascinated.
（4）What does Jacob expect of the research finding？

A．Encouraging educators to apply it to teaching.
B．Enabling researchers to carry out further studies.
C．Urging schools to pay attention to physical exercise.
D．Promoting harmonious teacher-student relationships.
（5）What does the last paragraph intend to tell us？

A．Children prefer learning step by step.
B．Children are too little to use their knowledge smartly.
C．Children lack enough practice to get fully improved.
D．Children's learning still relies on adults' instruction.

2．How to Work Out Your Worries by Writing
Something troubling you？You should write about it!Research indicates that people who write about a difficult situation often show improved mental and physical health.
   （1）

.It is a specific technique，and it's different from writing in a journal.The idea is to reflect honestly and thoughtfully on a particular challenge.
   Hundreds of studies over several decades have looked at the potential benefits of expressive writing.It can strengthen the immune system，including for people with illnesses such as flu，cancer and depression. （2）

   Expressive writing works because it allows you to make meaning out of a painful experience，experts say. （3）

Then translating that experience into language forces you to organize your thoughts.And creating a narrative gives you a sense of control.
   But expressive writing isn't a magical cure-all solution. （4）

.And people coping with a severe injury or depression may not find it useful to do on their own，without therapy （治療）.
   （5）

？Thinking or talking about an event can lead to reflecting，where you become lost in your emotions.Writing forces you to slow down.The mere act of labeling a feeling—of putting words to an emotion—can lessen the nervous activity in the threat area of the brain.Writing can increase someone's acceptance of his experience，and acceptance is calming.

A．Why write
B．What if you don't write
C．It can also help improve mood，sleep and memory
D．Expressive writing gave people the courage to face fears
E．It shouldn't be used as a replacement for other treatments
F．The first important step is to recognise what it is that is bothering you
G．Psychologists refer to writing about an unpleasant experience as "expressive writing"

3．At some time in your life you may have a strong desire to do something strange or terrible．However，chances are that you don't act on your impulse （沖動(dòng)），but let it pass instead You know that to commit the action is wrong in some way and that other people will not accept your behavior．
