Are you carrying too much on your back to school？Lots of kids your age are ．Not only are students in China suffering from the problem，but kids in the United States are puzzled by heavy school bags．

Experts are starting to worry that young students are having back and neck problems as a result of school bags being too heavy for them．“It is hard for me to get up the stairs with my bag because it's so heavy，” said Rick Hammond，an

11-year-old student in the US．

Rick is among the students who have regular backpacks（背包）with two straps （带子）to carry them，but a number of other students choose rolling backpacks．But even with rolling backpacks，getting upstairs and buses with them is still a problem for kids．Many of them have hurt their knees，backs or necks because of heavy school bags．

But how much is too much？Experts say students should carry no more than 10 to 15 percent of their own body weight．Scott Bautch，a Wisconsin back doctor，said kids under 4th grade should stay with 10 percent，but it's also important that older kids don't go beyond（超出）15 percent，because their bones are still growing．

Bautch explained that there are other injuries caused by backpacks．“Kids are losing their balance and falling down with these backpacks，” he said．

Parents and teachers are starting to tell kids to only take home library books they will be reading in the evening．Some teachers are using worksheets（作业单）or thin workbooks for students to take home．

One of the best answers is，as some kids suggest，to have no homework at all！

56．According to experts，a primary student in Grade 6，who is 40 kilograms，should carry abag weighing ＿＿＿＿ kilograms at most．

A．4 B．6 C．8 D．10

57．As school bags are too heavy for younger students to carry，they ＿＿＿．

A．show no interest in studying at school．

B．often fall ill

C．are having back and neck problems

D．usually ask their parents for help

58．The author wrote the passage to ＿＿＿＿．

A．seek（寻找）ways to solve the problem of heavy bags

B．appeal（呼吁）to teachers for caring for the students

C．criticize the government for having done nothing to help students

D．tell us that heavy bags are bad for students' health

59．Parents and teachers are starting to tell kids to take home only library books they will be reading in the evening to ＿＿＿＿．

A．make students more interested in reading than watching TV

B．give them more free time to play

C．make their bags easier to carry

D．let them sleep early at night

B

Although years have passed since I left my home of Luoshan County in Henan Province，certain things that happened there will stay in my mind forever．Swimming in the river，fishing and playing with friends are the things I will remember forever about growing up in the countryside．

Summer has always been the best season for me．In fact，some of my fondest childhood memories come from summer days of playing hard and falling into bed completely worn out．In those days，most summer evenings would find my friends，Xiao Gang and Lai Fu，and me swimming in the Shihe River．

Because my father was often busy with his work in the fields，it was up to me to find ways to entertain myself．One of my top activities was fishing．At the river，I would meet my friends and we would fish all day，stopping only to swim when the sun got too hot to stand．

As I grew older，organized sports became more important．Although we didn't have football or some other games that kids play today，I became very interested in basketball．I still remember running on the court struggling for the perfect shot．

Reading books was also one of my favourite hobbies．At first，I really liked books that dealt with（与……有关）nature and animals．When I grew older，I began to read mysteries and science-fiction novels（科幻小说），and soon they became my favorites．My cousin and Ioften spent many hours arguing over ownership of these books．

In fact，I was a naughty boy．I played hard and even got into trouble—we once pushed over a straw-pile while playing battle-games．Another timewe destroyed a beehive（蜂窝）on purpose．But making small mistakes is part of being a kid．

Today，with the heavy burden（负担）of study，I seldom go back to my home town

and meet my old friends．But the time we spent together cannot be forgotten and recalling these unforgettable experiences makes me very happy．

After the terrible car accident，the whole world had been completely dark and quiet for Robert Edwards for almost ten years，for he became both blind and deaf after the doctor had saved him．The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such a sorrow that he tried a few times to put an end to his life．His family，especially his wife，did their best to tend and comfort him．By and by he finally regained （恢复）the courage to live on．

On a hot summer afternoon he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunder storm started all of a sudden．He stood under a large tree in order not to get himself wet．Unfortunately he was stuck down to the ground by a lightning．The witnesses（目击者）thought him dead but he woke up some 20 minutes later，lying face down in muddy water below the tree．He felt that he was trembling badly，but when he opened his eyes，he didn't dare to believe that he saw a plough lying near the wall．When Mrs．Edwards came running up to him，she shouted to their neighbours for help．And he saw her and heard her voice for the first time in nearly 10 years．

The news of Robert's regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread across his area，and many doctors came to turn out the news．Most of them say that he gained sight and hearing again obviously from the knock of the lightning．However，no one of them could give convincing reasons．The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that，since Edwards lost his sight and hearing as a result of a sudden shock in a terrible accident，perhaps the only way for them to regain was by another sudden shock．

Transportation Changes in Beijing

There have been many changes in the means of transportation in Beijing in recent years．From 1996 to 1997，the number of bicycles increased by 25％，for it's convenient

and a good form of exercise as well．Over 10,000 more taxis were open to service in 1997．Nowadays more and more people take taxis，because it has a lot of advantages—it saves a lot of time，the price is reasonable，etc．The number of private cars owned by the well-to-do in 1997 is 34,000，twice as many as in 1996．The number of buses doesn't change as much，because they are slow，dirty and crowded．Something must be done to improve the conditions of buses for their public uses．

［部分解析］

21．B。题干的后半句是对前半句（祈使句）的解释或补充说明。意为“喝一点这种果汁，你也许会喜欢它”。

22．D。for在此处的意思是“限于”；而to常表示一般意义上的“对于”。be tall enough for one's age“对于他这个年龄来说已经够高了”。

23．D。so he does是指“他确实这样做了”，表示对上文的肯定或强调。so do you 是指“你也一样”，表示前者（Tom）的情况也适用于后者（you），前后非同一主语。

24．A。How do you find…？为固定句型，相当于What do you think of…？

25．A。besides“另外”；however“然而”。

26．B。how often“多久一次”，表示频率，故在此用every ＋名词；同时every与few连接时，不加a。

27．A。enough作副词时要放在形容词之后。

28．C。after all“毕竟”。

29．D。realize侧重指认识上的觉醒，意思是“意识到”；recognize是指“认出来”以往见过的人或物；know“了解”。

30．B。too＋adj．＋for＋n．表示“对……实在太……”；“太……以致不能……”。

31．D。由时间状语all morning可以确定此句应用现在完成进行时，表示从过去某一时刻开始一直持续到现在的动作或情况（状态）。

32．C。including在许多上下文中用作介词，其后直接跟宾语，指整体的一部分或几部分。当它修饰全句时，可放在句首或句末。含有补充说明的意思。where they were为地点状语，意思是“原来的地方”。

33．B。此处考查find接宾语补足语的用法。A、C、D三项干扰性很强，根据常识应为“（扒手）掏兜”。

34．A。leave sb.a message“给某人留个口信”。

35．B。当对别人的成就或成功表示祝贺时，通常用congratulations。

36．C。因其工作的商店经营的不太好，所以他所得的工资不多。

37．A。由上文可知，他希望和家人一起去度假，但是赚的钱不多，所以尽量攒钱。
