Ⅰ.阅读理解
You may have heard of the famous saying, “East or West, home is the best.” What does the word “home” mean to you? How do you say the word in French, in Chinese, in your language? Although people usually know what the word means, it sometimes has no exact translation. It’s not surprising, because the idea of home is different from country to country, and from person to person. A home is more than a roof and four walls. It’s the cooking, eating, talking, playing and sleeping that go on inside. And at home you usually feel safe and relaxed.
Homes look different in different countries. They also have different things inside. For example, in cold northern Europe, there’s a fire in the living room or kitchen and all the chairs facing it. In the south, where the sun shines a lot and it’s more important to keep the heat out, there are small windows and cool stone floors.
We asked some people about their homes.

阅读短文,然后在文后表格内完成内容摘要,每空不超过三个词。
Let’s talk about where different sports are played. In Chinese, we usually use one character chang for almost all sports fields. But it’s not the case in English. Different sports are played on different surfaces. Basically, there are fields, courts, tracks and pools.
Field is the most common name for an area where an athletic event takes place. You can generally call all sports places fields. Strictly, a field refers to an open area, especially an outdoor area usually with grass on it. So, football is played on the field, as well as rugby(橄榄球), American football and baseball. Field events like hurdles(跨栏跑) and the javelin(标枪) also take place on the field.
A court refers to an open, level area marked with lines. Courts usually are smaller than fields. Tennis is played on the tennis court, as well as badminton, volleyball, basketball, and squash rackets(软式墙网球). Tracks are prepared courses(跑道) laid out for running and racing. Pools, small bodies of still water, are for water sports such as swimming and diving.
