At the next stop, however, a big guy got on, really tall, built like a fighter, arms hanging down to the ground. He looked at Steve, saying, “Jack doesn’t pay!” and sat down at the back.
Steve was shocked but he was afraid to argue with the big guy. Next day the same thing happened. The man got on again, made a show of refusing to pay, and sat down. And the next
day, and the next.
Steve took the thing to heart. He started losing sleep. Finally he could stand it no longer. He decided to take up lessons, karate, judo, and all that good stuff.
By the end of the summer, he had become quite strong. He felt really good about himself. So, on the next Monday, when the big guy once again got on the bus and said, “Jack doesn’t pay!” Steve stood up and shouted back, ”And why not?” With a surprised look on his face, the big guy replied, “Jack has a bus pass.”

Jeremy Brett played as Sherlock Holmes in the The C. stood up and had a big
Adventure of Sherlock Holmes (1984-1994). The TV series
respected Doyle’s stories. Very few changes were made. Jeremy Brett was the Sherlock from the book. He totally puts himself in the character and becomes Holmes in a way no other
actor ever has. Robert Downy Jr.

Have you ever wanted to be locked in a hotel room? Or even trapped(困难) inside an old hospital? Now fear not: your strange dreams have been realized in the room escape game! This is how it works.
Inspired by the famous phone game, a room escape puts the game into real life. A group of people is taken into a room and they’re locked in. Everything in the room may seem normal at first, but on a closer look you find a series of puzzles(谜题). You must solve them within an hour. If you succeed, you will find a key to unlock the door and get out. Here’s one common puzzle in the room. It holds an important clue that gives you the number to a safe box where it holds the key. To solve the puzzle, you need to translate the
world ”HELP” into numbers. Look carefully at the keyboard, the number ”2” to “9” each stands for some English letters from “ABC” to “WXYZ” of “9”. For example, if you want to call ”KEY”, all you need is to enter the number “539” (“K” is on “5”, “E” and “Y” are on “3” and “9”). Now you must know the number, right?
Unlike what you saw in scary films, no one gets hurt during the game. And you won’t be locked forever if you fail to get out in time. Instead, it’s often to see those who have failed come back for a second try. 47. A room escape game is played ________.
A. in a cinema B. on mobile phones C. in a real room
48. Paragraph 2 mainly talks about the ________ of the game.
A. rule B. history C. name 49. In Paragraph 3, an important clue might _______ you in the game.
A. lock B. help C. call 50. According to Paragraph 3, the word ”HELP” can be translated into the number “_______”.
A. 2539 B. 4357 C.7534 51. We can infer that people who failed to get out in time might ________.
A. get hurt B. try again C. be locked
D
England’s historic statuses have stood quietly among us for centuries, often unnoticed. But now, some of them have been given a voice.
Once you stand in front of the Queen’s statue, swipe(滑动)you phone on the sign. Ring, ring! It’s “the Queen” on the line.
The black statue of Queen Victoria is a given a monologue(独白), humoring the tourists. “Queen of England for 63 years, seven months and two days. But who’s so bored to count the days?” she asks. “Do not picture me as this old woman in black. Trust me, I got a better taste!” Of course, that’s not the real Queen talking. A number of UK’s best minds were asked to create speeches for them. “Every city has statues that are forgotten,” Colette Hiller, the leader of the project, says, “So we worked with some writers and actors to bring them to life.”
There are 35 statues talking in England. Each has speech of its own. The Unknown Soldiers at London Paddington Station asks you to show down and hear their stories. “There’s so much I don’t know about the city. The statues are maps to discover the city’s history,” says, Mike, who was born and raised in London.
Although phones are needed, the idea behind it is actually to draw people away from smart phones. “Look up!” says Isaac Newton outside the British Library, in a loud voice. “Most of the things you’re doing now can only be done because of my discoveries.”
52. If you swipe your phone in front of a statue, you might
_________.
A. get a call B. meet the Queen C. make a sign
53. The monologue of Queen tries to make people _________. A. keep quiet B. get angry C. feel fun
54. Colette Hiller hopes that people can ________. A. save some famous people’s lives B. hear words from the real Queen C. take an interest in the statues 55. The Unknown Soldiers statue talks in order to ________. A. slow down their steps B. share stories with people C. show people the way
56. The words of Isaac Newton remind people to ________. A. call him up B. use phones less C. get into the library

It is said that doing physical exercise can make our brain work better, but I wanted to know if that was true. Maybe it could be the answer to getting good grades at school.
To find out about it, we decided to make a memory test. We took 25 different things from around the house and covered
them up with a towel(毛巾). Next, we asked eight of our friends to take a test. We took away the towel and gave them one minute to stare at the things. When the minute was up, we covered the things again and asked them to write down as many things as they could remember.
Then we divided our friends into two groups. One group sat down and played easy board games, me called it “”TEAM:SIT”. The other group got active and went out for a few miles. We named it ”TEAM :MOVE”. At the same time, we put new things in the test. After 10 minutes , both teams took a second test with the new things.
We graded all the tests, giving one point for each correct answer. Then we watched how each team’s score changed. The TEAM:SIT’s average(平均)score went down by 2 points. The other team’s average went up by 4 points. The difference wasn’t huge. But the team that exercised increased their memory test scores.
So next time, I might go out and take a long run before I study for a test!
