A. 还原型

阅读下列文章，文中有五处空白，文后方框中有五个句子，请把它们分别放回到文中原来的位置上，使文章完整、连贯。

Everyone feels tired at one time or another. The office worker feels tired after a hard day at work. The sportsman feels tired after hours of physical training.

(1)_________ The explanation is that when you exercise a muscle in your body over and over again, something known as fatigue toxins (疲劳毒素) is produced. The blood system then carries these toxins throughout the body. In the end, not only does that muscle feel tired but the whole body feels tired as well.

(2)_________ Sleeping is one of the best ways to fully recharge (使恢复精力) your tired body. Most importantly, the damage caused by tired muscles is slowly being repaired when we sleep.

(3)_________ Another way to get over fatigue is by doing some activities that you enjoy. For example, after a hard day’s work, the office worker may want to go for a relaxing walk. After a long tiring day at school, the student prefers jogging to resting at home. (4)_________ When your body is tired, one way of curing tiredness is by improving the body’s blood circulation. When we take part in an activity, our blood circulation is improved. (5)_________

The World’s Craziest Hoaxes

All over the world people are celebrating April Fools’ Day! From practical jokes to world-wide news, everybody knows April 1st is the day for a good laugh. Below are some ways that people all over the world have celebrated April Fools’ Day.

On April 1, 1957, the BBC aired a news report about a good spaghetti harvest in Switzerland. The broadcast stated that the disappearance of the insects that are bad for spaghetti and a mild winter were both factors in this spaghetti harvest. They even showed clips of farmers pulling pasta out of “spaghetti trees”! Thousands of people called in to ask how to grow their own spaghetti tree, and the BBC actually told them to put a “sprig (嫩枝)” of spaghetti in a tin (金属盒) of tomato sauce and hope for the best.

On April 1, 1996, Taco Bell Corporation gave out a full-page ad that appeared in six major newspapers announcing it had bought the Liberty Bell and was renaming it the Taco Liberty Bell. Hundreds of angry citizens complained to the National Historic Park in Philadelphia where the bell was held. A few hours later, Taco Bell revealed that it was a joke.

On April 1, 2008, the BBC announced that photographers had taken photos of penguins flying in the air. It even had a video clip of the penguins. A follow-up video finally told the secret on how the BBC created the special effects of the flying birds.

H. 读写综合型

(a) 信息归纳

阅读下列短文，完成后面的信息卡。

No one knows exactly when Shakespeare was born, but most people think it was in April of 1564 in a small town of England called Stratford-Upon-Avon. Not much is known about his childhood or early life. By 1592, he was an up-and-coming (很有前途的) actor and playwright(剧作家) in London’s theatre world. Shakespeare was well-loved in his time, and by the end of the 1500s, he was rich and famous. He was not just known for being a playwright, but for being a talented actor and the leader of a respected acting company, Lord Chamberlain’s Men. Lord Chamberlain’s Men started out performing at a theatre called The Theatre, but when they built their own theatre called The Globe in the middle of London, they really took off. They changed their name to The King’s Men after England’s newest king, King James I.

Shakespeare’s early plays had stories that were not much different from the popular styles of the time, but it was his words that made him stand out. He invented many new phrases and words we still use today, and he made sure to write lines in a rhythm (韵律) that sounded nice when spoken.

Though Shakespeare’s words were what made him different, his stories were great as well. People liked the plots of his plays because they focused on things like love, jealousy, confusion, and happiness—things that practically everyone can relate to (涉及).

Shakespeare died in 1616. Though he lived more than 400 years ago, people still love his plays. Some performances based on his works are put on all over the world every year, and they are often some of the first plays actors study when learning about acting. His plays have held up so well because he wrote about things that every human can relate to, and wrote them beautifully.

(b) 阅读下面短文，按要求完成后面的任务。

Louis Braille was born in the nineteenth century. When he was three years old, an accident at his father’s workshop left him blind. As a young boy, Louis was hard-working and clever. His teachers suggested that he should go to the National Institute for Blind Youths. ① At that time, this was the only school for the blind in France.

At the institute, Louis was eager to learn to read and write. To his great disappointment, the few books he found at the institute used raised (凸起的) letters. This method of reading was difficult for the blind, because they had to feel slowly each letter. ②到他们摸到句子末尾时，他们已经忘记开头是关于什么了。

Louis wanted to develop an easier reading system for the blind. His idea of such a system came from Charles Barbier, a French army officer. Barbier had invented a system called “Night Writing”, which was made up of dots and dashes. Soldiers used this system to communicate with one another during the night. Louis adapted (改编) this system for his own use. He produced a simpler system based on dots. For example, “A” is represented by a single dot. Many blind students found this system much easie r to use.

This came to be known as the “Braille” system. Today, millions of blind people are able to read, thanks to the work of a young blind man.
