Dou Kou was born in Jiangsu Province in 1994. When he was 7 months old, his parents started working in more than 30 different cities, such as Xi'an, Shenzhen. This kind of life gave him things to think and write about.
When Dou Kou was 9 months old, he could speak and at the age of one, he could say five to six hundred words. At 3, he could look up words in the dictionary. At 4, his father taught him to learn something. His parents like reading very much. So does he. At the age of 5, he began writing fairy tales.
His fairy tales are all from his life. One day, he found many mice in the house. They not only ate their food but also hurt his mother's hand. So he thought, 'If we give mice the stomachs of cows, they'll eat grass and it'll be helpful to people.' This was his first fairy tale Change Stomachs for Mice. At 6, he wrote a novel about his own life in different cities with his parents.

These days, most people in Britain and the USA do not wear very formal clothes. But sometimes it is important to wear the right thing.
Many British people don't think about clothes very much. They just like to be comfortable. They can wear almost anything. At theaters, cinemas and concerts you can put on what you like-from elegant suits and dresses to jeans and sweaters. Anything goes, as long as you look clean and tidy.
But in Britain as well as in the USA, men in offices usually wear suits and ties, and women wear dresses or skirts (not trousers). Doctors, lawyers and business people wear quite formal clothes. And in some hotels and restaurants men have to wear ties and women wear smart dresses.
In many ways, Americans are more relaxed than British people, but they are more careful about their clothes. At home, or on holiday, most Americans wear informal or sporty clothes, But when they go out in the evening, they like to look elegant. In good hotels and restaurants, men have to wear jackets and ties, and women wear pretty clothes and smart hairstyles.
It is difficult to say exactly what people wear in Britain and the USA, because everyone is different. If you are not sure what to wear, watch what other people do and then do the same. You'll feel more relaxed if you don't look too different from everyone else.
( )6. Many British people wear freely when they_______.
A. attend meetings B. have parties
C. spend their free time D. meet their friends
( )7. Who don't usually wear suits and ties?

During the years of game making, there have been a number of games. Many old games have gone since modern games came out.
Teachers at a primary school asked their students to write articles about
games they knew and were surprised by the results. Half of the 50 children in
one of the classes wrote about online games.
It is easy to see that traditional games like hide-and-seek and jump rope
games are unfamiliar to m any of today's schoolchildren. They like to play
computer games, especially in the cities, with the rising popularity of TV, the Internet, video and online games.
An educationist said, 'Traditional games used to be so popular, but over just a few years, kids have forgotten them. It's sad.'
The games that many parents once played were generally outdoor activities which were enjoyed by students during breaks or after school. They usually needed several partners and just a little space.
Jump rope games, for example, have always been popular in many countries around the world. A kind of jump rope game, played with rubber bands(橡皮筋) which are connected together to make a long rope, is played in many countries.
Rubber band jumping was once very popular in primary schools. Girls loved playing this game. It can help kids practise their jumping skills and develop coordination(协调性), and also help them meet lots of friends.
It is common these days to see primary school students spending their breaks in the classroom. They are busy with their studies.
'When we were young, we played many different outdoor games, but today's children don't know what to play or how to play,' a 40-year-old mother said. 'They don't know what teamwork is.'
Being worried by the situation, educational officers have tried to make some programmes to educate children on traditional games.
( )11. How are traditional games today?
A. Today's children don't like traditional games.
B. Traditional games are missing one by one.
C. Traditional games aren't so easy as computer games.
D. Modern games are more useful than old games.
( )12. The meaning of the underlined word 'unfamiliar' here is '_______'
A. not known B. not helpful C. unimportant D. not interesting
( )13. The traditional games like hide-and-seek and jump rope games_______.
A. can be played only in schools
B. can be played only outdoors
C. usually need a few partners
D. need a very large space
( )14. Today's schoolchildren don't know how to play traditional games mainly because_____.
A. they are busy with their studies
B. they don't like them at all
C. their parents don't let them do that
D. the games are difficult to learn
( )15. Which of the following is the writer's opinion?
A. Traditional games should take the place of modern games.
B. Schoolchildren shouldn't be busy with their lessons.
C. Without playing traditional games, children don't know what teamwork is.
D. The whole society should try to educate children on traditional games.
