A shop managed by a robot has been set up in Tokyo, the capital of Japan. The shop was set up by a Japanese company.

When a customer comes to the shop, he will be given a pencil and a piece of paper. When he is looking at the shelves for goods, he can write down the number of each thing he wants to buy. Then he may come to a machine, which looks like a bank ATM, and press the buttons to tell the machine the numbers, and some other information about the goods. The machine will soon give the customer a bill. When the customers put money into the machine, change will be given back at once, and the words "Thank You for Coming" will appear on the screen of the machine. The robot will select the ordered goods for the customer according to computer center's information.

Every day, children have three main meals: breakfast, lunch and supper, but they sometimes have a small amount of food that is eaten between main meals. Is it good or bad to have extra snack foods like crisps and peanuts?

American children now eat an average （平均）of three snacks a day between meals. A study found that those snacks add up to almost one-third of all the daily calories eaten by children. And those extra calories could help explain the rise in overweight children in the United States.

The doctors in the research found that snacking has increased since the 1970s. And what kinds of snacks have increased the most? Salty, high-fat foods like chips.

Barry Popkin, a professor in this field, says parents should limit （限制）snacks to one a day for children aged six and older. He also advises parents to provide healthy snacks like fruits and vegetables. Professor Popkin says American schools also need to improve their nutrition （营养）. For example, schools may have vending machines that offer what many people would consider junk food.

Public health officials reported in January that seventeen percent of American children are seriously overweight. There has been a push for schools to offer more healthful snacks and lunch choices and fewer sugary drinks. Earlier this month Coca-Cola said it would stop selling sugary drinks in American schools unless parents requested them. Its competitors at Pepsi just announced that they will stop sales of sugared drinks to schools worldwide.

America's top public health officers want to see more changes like this. They spoke about making healthy foods more available. And First lady Michelle Obama is leading a campaign to fight childhood obesity. That is to say, do not let the children become too fat.

36. What is a snack after you read the above article?

 A. A meal eaten in the morning as the first meal of the day

B. Something to eat or eaten between main meals

C. Usually the meal you eat in the evening

 D. A meal that is eaten in the middle of the day

37. Why are there more and more overweight children in the United States?

 A. They have three meals a day.

B. Children have too many vegetables and fruits.

C. They have too much extra food between meals.

D. They exercise less and less in their daily life.

38. About how many children are overweight in America?

  A. l : 3     B. 17%      C. 70%          D 50%

39. Which of the following is wrong according to the article?

A. The vending machines （售货机）in schools should offer junk food.

B. Parents should limit snacks to one a day for children aged six and older

C. Parents should provide healthy snacks like fruits and vegetables.

D. Try to cut the snacks with salty, high-fat foods.

40. What step has not made to solve the overweight problem?

Have you ever had a day when everything seemed to   57   , and nothing seemed to go right?Not too long ago, I was sad. I told my mother all about it, hoping for some pity. Instead, she said, “I heard Jamie was having a difficult day too. Why don’t you make her some cookies?”

I   58   do that, but I didn’t want to go back to my other problems, either. I made the cookies and put them in a box. Then I made a card with some flowers on it and wrote a small note.

That afternoon I went to my friend’s house. When Jamie came to the door, she looked at me   59   . Before she could say anything, I said, “I heard you were having a hard day and decided to bring you something. I hope your day goes better.” The look on Jamie’s face was one that I could never put into words. It was   60   adark sky suddenly turned into sunshine.

When I    61   , I felt much better. That day I knew that those who brought sunshine to others, could also keep it for themselves.

五、阅读短文（第62-66每小题2分，第67-76每小题1分。计20分）

A) 根据短文内容，填写下列表格，每空不超过4个词。

Have you ever been so worried about something that you have a headache or even can’t sleep at night? Then you cannot pay enough attention during a test or in your study. If so, then you know that is stress. You are worried too much about something. The bad feeling in your mind can make you angry, sad, or scared, and can even give you a stomachache or a headache.

However, some kind of stress is good. Excitement might happen when you are called to give a speech at school. You feel nervous but excited. This kind of stress can help you to get things well done. And you may do a better job in your test if the stress pushes you to prepare more beforehand.

On the other hand, bad stress can last long if you are unable to come over your problems. You may not feel well, if your parents are having a quarrel, if a family member is badly ill, if you’re doing poorly at school, or if anything else makes you unhappy. That kind of stress isn’t going to help you. And it can actually let you do worse in your daily life.

The best way to fight the stress is to have a balanced life. Make sure you get enough sleep and eat properly. Have some regular exercise. You should take some time for fun. Get advice from your parents, teachers and friends. Soon after that, you’ll probably get away with your stress.

Look at the picture of Stonehenge to your left. Stonehenge is a group of very large, tall stones that are p  67  into a large circle with a smaller circle inside it. For centuries, they have stood alone on the Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire, England.

F  71   of all, one of the most popular beliefs was that Stonehenge was built by the Druids b  72   3100 B C and 1100 BC.

The Bluestones, 4,000 kilograms each, came from over 240 miles a  74  . They had to be c   75   by ship first, then across the land.
