Driving to a friend's house on a recent evening, I was attracted by the sight of the full moon rising just above my friend's rooftops. I stopped to watch it for a few moments, thinking about what a pity it was that most city people, myself included, usually miss sights like this because we spend most of our lives indoors.
My friend had also seen it. He grew up living in a forest in Europe, and the moon meant a lot to him then. It had touched much of his life.
I know the feeling. Last December I took my seven-year-old daughter to the mountainous jungle of northern India with some friends. We stayed in a forest rest-house with no electricity or hot water. Our group had campfires outside every night, and indoors when it was too cold outside. The moon grew to its fullest during our trip. Between me and the high mountains lay three or four valleys. Not a light shone in them and not a sound could be heard. It was one of the quietest places I had ever known, a bottomless well of silence. And above me was the full moon, which struck me deeply.
Today our lives are filled with glass, metal, plastic and fibre-glass. We have televisions,
cellphones, heaters, ovens, air-conditioners, cars and computers.
Struggling through traffic that evening at the end of a tiring day, most of it spent indoors, I thought: Before long, I would like to live in a small cottage. There I will grow vegetables and read books and walk in the mountains. And perhaps I'll write, but not in anger. I may become an old man there, and wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled and measure on my life in coffee spoons. But I will be able to walk outside on a cold silent night and touch the moon.
24. Why did the writer feel sorry for himself?
A. There was too much pollution.
B. He usually missed the full moon sights.
C. He didn't adapt to modern inventions.
D. There were too many accidents on the road.
25. What impressed the writer most in the mountainous jungle of northern India?
A. No modern equipment.
B. Complete silence.
C. The nice full moon.
D. The high mountains.
26. In paragraph 4, modern things are mentioned mainly to
A. show that the writer likes city life very much
B. tell us that people greatly benefit from modern life
C. explain that people have few chances to enjoy nature
D. show that we can also enjoy nature at home through them
27. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Touched by the Moon
B. The Pleasures of Modern Life
C. A Bottomless Well of Silence
D. Break Away From Modern Life
C
People often go to cafés to relax themselves and keep themselves from falling asleep, but Mr Healing, a popular cafe chain in South Korea actually does the opposite. Customers can come in, order a drink, lie down on a comfortable massage (按摩) chair, and take a nap.
Many people suffer from a lack of sleep as a result of overworking, so any opportunity to relax and even take a nap is greatly appreciated. Mr Healing is the perfect place to go when you're on a short work or school break and need to catch up on sleep. The café offers massage periods in various modes, depending on how much time you have and how you choose to spend it.
The 20-minute session is priced at $3.5, the 30- minute massage costs $7, and the 50-minute session is $9, all of which also include a drink. Once you make your choice, you are taken to the "healing centre". You are asked to take off your shoes as well as any jewellery that might damage the chairs, after which you can choose a massage mode, from "stretch" or "sleep". You can start with stretch for a few minutes, and then switch to sleep if you want to take a short nap. After it comes to an end, you are taken back to the café area to enjoy a coffee or one of the many other refreshing drinks on the menu.
Mr Healing cafés are so popular in South Korea that customers are advised to make reservations in advance to be sure that a massage chair is available (可用的)."I have to sit on a chair and stare at a computer monitor all day due to my job, so the healing room is truly effective to relieve tiredness and stress from weekdays," said Park Hye-sun, a 24-year-old officer.
Some have described Mr Healing and other similar cafés in South Korea as simple fashions, but others see them as a sustainable business model, because they offer a service that people really need.
28. Why do customers come to Mr Healing?
A. To have themselves checked.
B. To sleep before work.

C. The choices for customers.
D. The tips for customers.
30. What does the underlined word "it" in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The massage.

"Come on ! All of us are cutting (逃课) maths. Who wants to go to take that quiz? We're going to take a walk and get lunch instead. Let's go!" says the coolest kid in your class. Do you do what you know is right and go to maths class, take the quiz and all? Or do you give in and go with him?
People who are at your age, like your classmates, are called peers. When they try to influence how you act and get you to do something, it's called peer pressure. It's something everyone has to deal with--even adults.
Peers influence your life, even if you don't realise it, just by spending time with you. You learn from them, and they learn from you. It's only human nature to listen to and learn from other people in your age group.
Peers can have a positive influence on each other. Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in the solar system, or you got others excited about your new favourite book, and now everyone is reading it. Sometimes peers influence each other in negative ways. For example, a few kids in school might try to get you to cut class with them.
It's difficult to say "no" to peer pressure, but you can do it. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and what is wrong can help you know what is the right thing you should do.
It can really help to have at least one other peer, or friend, who is willing to say "no" too. If you continue to face peer pressure and you're finding it difficult to handle it, talk to someone you trust--a parent, or a teacher. They can help you. feel much better and prepare you for the next time you face peer pressure.
32. With the author's words in the first paragraph, what is the kid doing?
A. Planning some interesting activities after school.
B. Making an announcement about a dinner party.
C. Persuading other kids to take a quiz with him.
D. Encouraging other kids to cut class.
33.What can be known according to the author?
A. For kids, peer pressure may do more harm than good.
B. Maths is the most difficult subject for most kids.
C. Kids today are under greater pressure than before.
D. Peer pressure exists among people of all age groups.
34. What is suggested to the readers in the last paragraph?
A. Making more close friends while at school.
B. Learning to refuse their friends in a polite way.
C. Getting support from someone else if necessary.
D. Building closer relations with their parents and teachers.
35. Whom is the text probably written for?
A. The students.
B. The parents.
C. The teachers.
D. The friends.
