Liu Xuan is totally a homebody. Every weekend, this 14-year-old student from Tsinghua High School
watches popular TV dramas ( 戏剧 ) like Love Between Fairy and Devil ( Cang Lan Jue ) and plays with her mobile
phone. She hates playing outdoor sports. “It’s too tiring,” she said.
She is not alone. In recent years, more and more Chinese teenagers are becoming homebodies. A survey of
kids aged 2 to 14 showed about 60 percent of them spend less than one hour doing outdoor activities every day.
This problem may have to do with heavy academic pressure ( 学业压力 ). Hu Huilan, 12, from Shenzhen
Nanshan Language School, is busy with much homework and many after-school classes on weekends.“I don’t
want to get behind,” she said.
Even if this isn’t a problem, kids still prefer indoor life. Wang Di, 12, from Anhui No. 50 Middle School,
often reads Harry Potter , listens to music and surfs the Internet at home. “I can do so many things I like at home
rather than hanging out in smoggy weather,” she said.
The situation for foreign students is quite different. Tina Smith, 15, from a high school in Toronto Canada,
says her peers ( 同龄人 ) don’t like staying indoors at all. “They spend their free time outdoors even if it just means
going to the park or reading a book under the tree. Nice weather, little homework and rich outdoor activities
enable us to do that,” she said.
39 . Why does the author writes something about Liu Xuan in the first paragraph?
A . To introduce a good TV drama.
B . To show us some bad living habits.
C . To make it clear what a homebody is like.
D . To tell us the importance of outdoor activities.
40 . What are homebodies like according to the passage?
A . They never play with mobile phones.
B . They hardly ever watch TV dramas.
C . They spend much time doing outdoor activities.
D . They like indoor life better than going outside.
41 . What does the underlined word “this” refer to in the fourth paragraph?
A . Much housework.
B . The Internet.
C . Academic pressure.
D . Personal choice.
42 . Where can we probably read this passage?
A . In a teenager magazine.
B . On a shopping website.
C . In a sports magazine.
D . On a traveling website.

阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
Molly Bremner is very short and thin, but she has a heart as big as the sky.
The nine-year-old girl is from Melbourne, Australia. She likes running in her free time. And she has been
running for as long as her mother Angela can remember. “When Molly started walking, she was at one speed ( 速
度 ), which was full speed,” Angela said. “She didn’t walk. She just ran everywhere.” Usually, from Monday to
Friday, Molly runs 6 km a day after school and on weekends she runs 21 km.
Now she is in training to run 625 km in 16 days from Melbourne ( 墨尔本 ) to Canberra ( 堪培拉 ). The
activity will start next month. Molly plans to run it to raise money for children with brain cancer ( 脑癌 ).
According to Angela, the illness sadly took the life of Molly’s sister, Phoebe, when their big sister Lucy
was just two years old. Molly is the only person in the whole family who never got to meet Phoebe because she
died before Molly was born. “When she heard what happened to Phoebe, she didn’t feel good and had the idea to
do this run for Children’s Cancer Institute ( 儿童癌症协会 ).
“It’s something she wants to do for Phoebe,” said Angela.
Molly now can run 42 km in five hours and 59 minutes. And when she goes for her normal 21-km run, it’s
like a slow walk for her and it takes her two hours and 45 minutes. She doesn’t get out of breath and talks to her
mother the whole time. Molly’s big sister Lucy, 12, is also sporty. She is fit and healthy, but she’s not a runner like
Molly.
53 . How often does Molly usually run every week?
54 . Why does Molly plan to run 625 km in 16 days from Melbourne to Canberra?
