21、An afternoon nap(午睡)is one of the joys of life, although too much napping could signal all is not well. In some cultures, people will have a daily nap — this is fine. The warning comes when people start sleeping during the daytime, when they did not before. There is certainly a good reason to believe that daytime sleepiness — as in the Alzheimer's study — can be a marker of an underlying condition.
For most people, napping during the day is mainly a sign that you are not getting enough sleep at night, says Dr. Neil Stanley, a sleep expert. "If you feel sleepy during the day, you should think about taking a nap. That is what the body needs — it doesn't need to be kept awake with caffeine, it needs sleep. "The feeling to notice is "sleepiness", he says, not "tiredness", which could be more psychological and linked to stress.
So how do you nap well? The key thing, says Stanley, is how long your nap lasts. Choose either a 20-or 90-minute nap. "When you fall asleep, you'll quickly go through the lighter stages of sleep into your first period of deep sleep. You don't want to wake up in deep sleep because that's when you wake and feel worse than you did before. "Napping for 20 minutes means you will wake up before you go into deep sleep; napping for 90 minutes means you'll complete a sleep cycle.
Once you factor in the time it takes to fall asleep — some people are better at napping than others but, says Stanley, "a healthy adult will fall asleep in between 5 and 12 minutes" — you can set an alarm, allowing a 30- to 40-minute period for a short nap, and up to two hours for a longer one.
A good time to nap is during the body's natural dip in the afternoon, between 2 pm and 4 pm. "You don't really want to be napping much past that because then you are going to be eating into your night-time sleep," Stanley says. The point, he stresses, is to get good night-time sleep, which would ensure you probably don't need to nap at all.
【1】What does an afternoon nap indicate for most people?
A．Caffeine addiction.
B．Psychological stress.
C．Insufficient night sleep.
D．Potential physical illness.
【2】What is the key to a good nap?

B．Between 2 pm and 4 pm.
C．Between 5 and 12 minutes.
D．A 20- to 90-minute period.
【4】Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

22、 Christmas came early this year for the children living in these low-income neighborhoods in Harrisonburg, Virginia.
That’s because a former resident (居民) of the area returned to the streets where he grew up so he could hand out more than $ 12,000 worth of toys to the local children earlier this week.
Adam Armstrong grew up poor in Harrisonburg. When he was just 18 years old, he was sent to prison to serve a three-month sentence for breaking the law. By the time he was set free, he knew that it was time to turn his life around.
Armstrong, who is now the father of a three-year-old girl, ended up moving to Baltimore and doing different jobs until he finally got into the international business. As Armstrong became more and more economically comfortable, he felt more and more eager to help people living in poverty, so he began donating (捐赠) toys to local neighborhood every holiday season.
This week, the 35-year-old man drove to his former neighborhood in a 26-foot moving truck packed with 1,327 toys to give away to all of the children. Sara Lewis Weeks, an old neighbor there, said that when Armstrong spoke to her about the gifts last week, she was not sure of his plan. To her surprise, however, Armstrong made good on his promise. “It wasn’t like simple animal toys—he was giving away bikes, self-controlled cars, real Barbie dolls—not Dollar Store Barbie dolls,” said Lewis Weeks. “He didn’t miss anybody. His heart was truly in this.”
Armstrong simply told The Washington Post that he was happy to bring joy to little kids for the holiday season.
“The kids were so pure and sweet,” Armstrong said. “You can’t put a price on looking at these kids’ happy faces. Some of them have nothing, and to be able to give them a small toy… the reward and the pleasure was mine.”
【1】What do we know about Adam Armstrong’s childhood from the text?
A.He and his family led a poor life.
B.He did many different jobs to support his family.
C.His parents were always busy during Christmas.
D.He often received donated toys before Christmas.
【2】When did Adam Armstrong decide to live a different life?
A.After having a child. B.During his childhood.
C.After finding a good job. D.After coming out of prison.
【3】What was Sara Lewis Weeks’ attitude towards Armstrong’s plan at first?
A.Doubtful. B.Amazed. C.Uncaring. D.Grateful.
【4】What can we learn about Adam Armstrong’s donation according to paragraph 5?
A.Armstrong wanted a reward for his donations.
B.Only a few children could receive the donations.
C.Armstrong’s donations were really great toys.
D.Armstrong was persuaded to donate by his daughter.
23、Our brain is a remarkably powerful tool. It is able to provide you with much more thinking abilities if you learn how to develop it in the most efficient way. 【1】
● Try to give your habits a fresh start from time to time.
For instance, stand on another foot when getting out of bed. You can also switch to holding a tooth brush with a hand you’ve never used for this purpose before. 【2】
All of those simple (yet amusing) tasks will help you to increase your brain’s activity.
● Learn how to get proper rest in order to work efficiently.
Deep healthy sleep increases brain’s strength margin and contributes to attention focusing. A lack of sleep or its’ derangement may affect mental activities and remarkably decrease its’ functional level. 【3】
● Do outdoor exercise
It is scientifically proven that a reasonable outdoor exercise forces your brain to produce new cells. There’s no need to become an athlete, but a bit of jogging around the building will definitely do you no harm.
● 【4】
Walnuts are the best snack for a brain - these even share a similar shape. Five walnuts a day provide enough lecithin for improving brain activity and memory. Don’t drink too much alcohol, for it isn’t good brain food.【5】 It is a part of a brain responsible for memory and spatial orientation. And well, a drunk man simply looks pitiful and foolish.

B．Don’t drink alcohol without limitation.
C．Scientists recommend a period of 6 to 8 hours of daily sleep.
D．Here are some simple ways to increase brain activity.

24、Chongqing, a city of more than 32 million people, faced an unheard-of test this summer with a heat wave and drought causing a series of large wildfires since Aug 17.
Local residents have safeguarded their hometown in every way possible, with thousands of volunteers from all walks of life fighting the fires with professionals.
Under a very hot sun, some residents used chain saws(锯) to fell trees to make fire barriers. Others rode motorcycles on newly formed paths to take firefighters and supplies up a mountain, while some volunteers carried food and drinks on their backs by foot. Women and children helped organize supplies and clear the ground, and performed other essential tasks.
On Thursday night, as wildfires approached a man-made barrier on Jinyun Mountain in Beibei district, a total of more than 1000 firefighters and volunteers stood alongside the barrier with fire extinguishers. Seen from overhead, their lights formed a silver wall against the raging fire.
The residents’ stories have touched many people.
“Chongqing people are really amazing.“ said Du Hailang, head of the Beijing Emergency Rescue Association, an NGO founded in 2007 that has taken part in many overseas rescue operations. Du and 10 other members of the association joined the fire rescue team in Chongqing last week.
“The man-made wall was unbelievable, but shocking. It really showed Chinese people’s determination to defend their homeland.” Du said.
The outstanding work of the volunteers and the hospitality of local residents impressed the firefighters, too···
Bai Xueguang, from Gansu Forest Fire Brigade, said, “I never imagined that I would have ice cream and cold drinks at a fire rescue site.”
Zhou Hongyu, from Yunnan Forest Fire Brigade, said every volunteer he met at the scene asked him if he needed anything “It was the first time I had taken a motorcycle to reach a fire scene. We really appreciate the locals’ hospitality. Their support has been wonderful.” Zhou said.
