Many high school students in the United States take part in school activities such as sports, bands, math clubs, science clubs, and theater activities. But after-school activities are not just for high school students. Many elementary schools also have after-school programs for students.

Most of the students in elementary after-school programs cannot go home when school ends because both parents work. These students are too young to stay at home alone. So the main purpose (目的) of these programs is just to look after the children until their parents can take them home. And the best part is that many of the activities in elementary schools are free for parents, unlike some daycare centers that are usually very expensive.

The teachers in charge of(负责) the programs want the children to learn while they are there. So the programs may have a special time for children to do their homework. And many schools also keep the school libraries open for students. Students can go to the libraries to read books or to use the libraries’ computers. But after-school programs are not “all work”. There is also plenty of time for children to play in the school’s playground.

A Man and Many Wolves

The government(政府) wanted to know more about wolves so they sent Farley to learn about wolves.

They put Farley on a plane and sent him to a place in the far north. There were no houses or people in this place. But there were lots of animals—and lots of wolves.

People tell terrible stories about wolves. They say wolves like to kill and eat people. Farley remembered these stories, and he was afraid. He had his gun (枪) with him all the time.

Then one day, he saw a group of wolves. There was a mother wolf with four baby wolves. A father wolf and another young wolf lived with them.

Farley watched these wolves every day. The mother was a very good mother. She gave milk to her babies. She gave them lessons about life. They learned how to get food. The father wolf got food for the mother. They were a nice and happy family—a wolf family!

Farley watched them for five months. He learned many new things about wolves. Wolves don’t eat people, and they don’t eat many large animals. The large animals they eat are often old or sick.

What do they eat most of the time? Lots of small animals. For example, they eat lots and lots of mice.

Now, Farley did not need his gun any more.

阅读短文,根据其内容回答下列各题。(答案写在答题纸上)

Sense of Touch

Touching

Touch is very important to us. It helps us collect information about things around us. When we touch something we know if it is hard like a stone, soft like cotton wool, rough(粗糙的) like the bark of a tree or sharp like a pin.

Keeping us safe

We know through touch when things are hot and cold. If something is very hot, a message is sent to your brain to pull your hand away quickly so that you won’t get burnt.

Blind people

Touch is very important to blind people because they can’t see. They rely on touching things to find out what they are. Blind people read by running their fingers over a page and feeling little lumps (凸起) that spell out the words.

People in this world can be divided into two categories: those always working and those always making comments. The working ones never have time to idle away. Some may run a hotel, or do some business; some may open a factory or set up a school; others may be absorbed in scientific research, or devoted to military affairs or political issues. Right or wrong, successful or failed, they are always fully committed to their careers. Facing all kinds of risks(not because they neglect them, but mainly because they have the courage), and shouldering the responsibilities, they march forward, bravely and cautiously. They are risking their luck and their lives as well. They have neither time nor energy to comment on others. While attentively planning the future, they devote themselves wholly in hard work, leaving the embroidered stories and malicious gossips flying in the air. The commenting ones, however, usually work less, and even if they want to work sometimes, they simply are not capable enough. They are no better than anyone, but show admiration to nobody either. They blame either the heaven, or the earth, but never themselves. They dare not to take any risks, but they are also afraid of any hard work. They are gossip-mongers, making stories and spreading rumors, making you feel annoyed and upset. It's not because that you have hurt them, or disturbed them, or hindered them, but because you are working. If only you are working, he is there commenting. Everything is hard at the beginning. You have just started a new cause, needing encouragement and support, yet he is there pouring a jar of cold water or blowing a gust of chilly wind, making you worried or perplexed. But once you have succeeded, he is there again sharing your success without feeling a little ashamed of the discouragement he had given you. (来源：英语资料下载 http://download.englishcn.com)

Many people don't like using their mind but enjoy echoing the views of others. They often take it for granted that the working ones are wrong while the commenting ones are definitely right. However in all fairness, how can it be true? Not working itself is already wrong, and it is a blunder to hurt the hard working people.

(来源：EnglishCN英语问答中心[e问e答])

From ancient time to the present, many great men have been commented on endlessly. Take the cases of Confucius, Emperor Qinshihuang, Empress Wu Zetian, Gengis Khan, Dr. Sun Yet-sun, Chairman Mao, Deng Xiaoping, etc.. Both positive and negative criticism have been made about them. They not only enjoyed compliments but also suffered slanders from all over the world. (来源：英语e问e答 http://ask.englishcn.com)

When commenting on what's right and what's wrong, the commenting ones themselves don't really know what is wrong and what is right. They are simply demanding perfection. When criticizing the others' inability, they themselves are actually unable to do anything, but simply pretending that they know better. This can well be compared with the actors and spectators. A new program is always followed by large amounts of criticism from the spectators. But if a spectator is given a chance to perform, a disaster will surely happen. Diners are always commenting on the skills of the chefs while readers are always criticizing the writers. Another case in point is the forty-chapter sequel of A Dream of the Red Mansions , which were written by Gao E who did a nearly perfect job. Nevertheless there are always such people who claim to be the experts on the novel, criticizing the latter forty chapters as a wretched sequel to a fine work. What if we ask them to write the sequel? I'm afraid they can only make it worse. It's easier said than done.

Capable people can be sought for help and attract the attention of the society, thus causing a lot of comments, more complaints but less gratitude (even though they didn't ask anyone for help, if only they were not able to help others in a satisfactory way, it's already their fault); (来源：英语论坛 http://bbs.englishcn.com)

Wealthy people are non the easier. No doubt there are cruel-hearted rich men, but it is also wrong to think that no wealthy people are kind-hearted. They are capable of devising and managing and they often need to take risks to get the chance. But who care about these? (来源：英语论坛 http://bbs.englishcn.com)

Whenever a group are dining or entertaining, everyone will take it for granted that the rich should pay the bill instead of going Dutch. If the rich doesn't pay, then he'll definitely be regarded as a miser; (来源：英语交友 http://friends.englishcn.com)

Among good friends and relatives, the rich should often help the poor, otherwise he will surely be blamed for his cruel-heartedness;

(来源：英语交友 http://friends.englishcn.com)

From the ancient times, people have been used to killing the rich to save the poor, without thinking about how the rich became rich and the poor stayed poor. The policy of “allowing some people to get rich” has balanced people's mind to some extent, but there is still a long way to go before we can get rid of “the hatred toward the wealthy”. (来源：英语电影下载 http://bt.englishcn.com)

Capable people or rich people are just human, neither sages nor perfect men. They have their own faults, and they may also commit mistakes. But objectively speaking, some mistakes are forced on them, which are the expectations of the public. They are expected to do this or that, but when expectations become disappointments, they have to take the blaming. In fact, it's the public's fault to demand for perfection or counting on unrealistic expectations of the rich.

平心而论
北京外国语大学北戴河外语培训基地校长 宋远利

(来源：英语交友 http://friends.englishcn.com)

世界上总有一些人在做事，总有一些人在说事。做事的人不闲着，或者包个饭店，或者搞个买卖，或者办个工厂，或者建个学校，或者专心科研，或者从军从政。也许对，也许错；也许成功，也许失败，但很投入。他们担着天下的风险（并非都是忽略，大多还是敢于面对），扛着双肩的责任，奋然前行，又战战兢兢，常常是在赌运、也赌命。他们没有时间去说别人的事，也没有精力去理会别人的事。他们抬头看路，埋头做事，任由别人的飞短流长。 (来源：英语麦当劳www.EnglishCN.com)

说事的人，常常是不大做事。或者也曾经想做事，但做不来。他们可能谁都不如，但又谁都不服。怨天怨地，不怨自己。他们不敢担任何的风险，又不肯出少许的力气。一件事，他们能从头说到尾。先是乌鸦叫，后来喜鹊噪，一会一变脸，令你心烦闹。

(来源：英语e问e答 http://ask.englishcn.com)

并不是你伤害了他，并不是你干扰了他，并不是你阻碍了他。但只要你在做事，他就会来说事。万事开头难。当你刚刚起步，正需要鼓励与支持的时候，他会一盆凉水，一股阴风，让你浑身不舒服。而一旦你业有所成，他又会满面春风地来分一瓢羹，好象不曾给过你那片下雨的乌云。

(来源：英语麦当劳－英语学习门户 EnglishCN.com)

世上有许多人不喜欢动脑，却习惯于人云亦云。他们常以为错在做事的人，理在说事的人。但平心而论，怎么会这样呢？不做事，本身就是错。再打击做事的人，不是错上加错嘛！ (来源：英语聊天室 http://chat.EnglishCN.com)

从古至今，许多能人，伟人，都被无休无止地评论着。如孔夫子、秦始皇、武则天、成吉思汗、孙中山、毛泽东、邓小平等，说是的有，说非的也有。也堪称誉满天下，谤满天下。

(来源：专业英语学习网站 http://www.EnglishCN.com)

说人是非，并非明白是非，不过是求全责备而已。说人不行，未必自己真行，不过装腔作势而已。就如演员与观众，每个节目出来，都会有一大堆褒贬。但真让观众上台，可能又演不成了。食客总是在评论厨师的手艺，读者总是在评论作者的长短。再如《红楼梦》的后四十回，乃高鄂所续写。公平地说，几近天衣无缝。但就有那么些人，甚至打着红学家的招牌，一定要说后四十回怎么不行，怎么狗尾续貂。真不行吗？就让这几位“红学家”写写看，他们恐怕连鼠尾都拿不出来。侃山容易，搬山难啊。

能人、富人，永远都是社会的焦点。 (来源：英语e问e答 http://ask.englishcn.com)

能人可能成功，引起世人的羡慕，也会引起众多评论，佩服的少，嫉妒的多。（只承认你的运气和侥幸） (来源：英语麦当劳－英语快餐EnglishCN.com)

能人可能被求助，受到世人的关注，从而导致事后的品评，感谢的少，抱怨的多。（你没有求人，但别人求你的事没办或没办好，都是你的错。） (来源：英语麦当劳－英语杂志 EnglishCN.com)

能人也会遭遇挫折，（有人甚至三起三落）感受人心的冷暖，洞知世态的炎凉，帮扶的少，推墙的多。

(来源：英语e问e答 http://ask.englishcn.com)

能人、富人都是人，既不神圣，也非完人。他们都有自身的毛病，也会犯各种错误。但平心而论，还有一种错误是别人强加的，那就是众人的期望。期望他们这样，期望他们那样，期望变成了失望，就成了他们的错。对他们求全责备也好，对他们非份希求也好，其实都不应算作他们的错。 (来源：英语问答中心 http://ask.englishcn.com)

我主张鼓励做事的人，哪怕他们真的有错。 (来源：英语论坛 http://bbs.englishcn.com)

我奉劝说事的人，自己也努力去做些可做的事。 (来源：英语分类信息 http://fl.englishcn.com)

我希望人们能平心而论天下事，不要偏激，不要掺杂个人的恩怨，不要取舍于个人的得失。我更希望做事的人，不要太在意别人一时怎么说、甚至怎么骂。要相信，是非自有公论，只是个时间问题。 (来源：英语图片

E. 英语阅读竞赛怎么弄

估计是科普类的吧
买书做题
答题的时候 注意拿铅笔划出一些关键词
读题，用圆圈圈出问的专是什么 比如问原因 问对错属 问主旨什么的
用波浪线划出 形容词比较级最高级 限定词 专有名词 导向性的词（如显然的，可以接受的）这些词是帮助你在文中定位在哪里找答案的
如果你总是看一遍又一遍再答题一定来不及
主要靠练习 还有不要纠结于一个单词
注意每段的首句 第二句 最后一句 里面通常包含 主旨和中心
还有注意一些所谓的提示词 但是 然而 虽然 什么的 它引导的信息通常都很重要 都在这上面出题

G. 英语的阅读理解竞赛有什么技巧吗(初二)

别粗心,简单的也不能大意

H. 中学生英语阅读竞赛是比什么的

我初二高二大二都参加过呵呵题型都差不多
先是听力，有选单词，选答案，选图片，内段对话容，长对话和短文，大部分都是只只读一遍，个人觉得挺快的。然后是单选大概是15个左右吧，再后来是阅读，有和一般的阅读理解差不多的，也有选词填空，或者是选句子补充文章的，再后面是完型，我记得是有两个，一个就是我们平常做的选ABCD,另外一个就是选词填空，好像是15选10，再后面我记得是有翻译，5个句子，还有5个脑筋急转弯，用英语作答，最后是作文，有两个。总的来说难度还可以，就是题量有点大，建议你在阅读撒谎那个多下点功夫。祝你好运加油++
