21、 When the morning sun looks in through your bedroom window, do you jump out of bed ? Or do you roll over and groan? Enough sleep can make the difference between a great day and a terrible one!
A good night's sleep doesn't just happen. You need to prepare for it. 【1】 First, go to bed at the same time every day, and get up at the same time. If you
haven't gotten a good night's sleep, don't oversleep the next morning. Get up at your regular time. Sleeping late for just a couple of days can change your body clock to a different cycle. You don't want that if you have a set daily schedule!
Also, avoid big meals at night. 【2】 Your stomach works hard to digest those fatty foods, and that may keep you up.
Your body produces a chemical called melatonin （褪黑色素） that helps you sleep. Light affects the amount of melatonin your body makes 【3】 . So at night turn off your TV and computer. Also, don't read from a backlit device like an iPad. Some scientists think that the light from those devices stops your body from making melatonin. 【4】
Maybe you can't sleep or you wake up in the middle of the night. 【5】 Get up and do something relaxing elsewhere. Then go back to bed when you bed when you-feel sleepy. If you worry a lot, make a list of things you need to do the next day. Do that an hour before bed. That way you get your worrying out of the way before you go to bed.
A．It produces more in the evening and less in the daytime.
B．Don't just lie in bed.
C．So stay away from smart phones and iPads.
D．Various experts have given tips to help.
E．You'll be able to face a new day after a good night's sleep.
F．So turn those screens off at least one hour before bedtime.
G．Eating heavy, rich food within two hours of bedtime can keep you awake.
22、We always read reports about costs of oil going up and we will think this is our most valuable material. However, water is the most valuable resource(资源). People in the Middle East are more worried about this than oil. Maybe the next war will be about water.
In the future, to control the quality and quantity(数量), you will use different water for different usages. The water used to wash your car, water your flowers or wash your clothes doesn’t need to be as clean as the water you drink.
One in five people live in countries without enough fresh water and in 25 years, the number is believed to be one in every three people. Our world population is increasing. What do you suppose this will suggest for us in the future? Population control?
Traditional management of the water industry has been out of date since the 1990s. When technologies develop so rapidly in the world, we have loads of information for technologies in the business world, but in the water industry we don’t have any.
Britain and France have already taken measures to successfully improve their water industries. All the water services in Britain have been provided by private(私有的) companies since 1991. Since then, improvement has been made in the rules for their water quality and pricing.
What can you do now for the future? Using water more efficiently(有效地) in your house can make a great difference not only to the world but to your money. Even if you don’t have to pay much now, you will when you start to pay big prices for different water usages.
【1】Water shortage is getting more serious because ______________.

23、New Lives for Old Phones
When a new mobile phone starts to be sold in stores, many people rush out to buy one. We all want the newest, latest thing. 【1】.
Mike Townsend works at Total Recall, a mobile phone recycling company. “Don’t throw your old phone away. 【2】 if you throw it away, it goes with other rubbish to become landfill. In other words, it is put in a big hole in the ground and it becomes a big problem,” he says.
Mobile phones contain some poisonous materials. If your phone goes to a landfill, these poisonous materials can get out and get into the water under the ground. That’s the water we need to drink or water goes into rivers or the ocean. 【3】 That’s a lot of landfill and a lot of poisonous materials.
“At Total Recall, we separate the old phones into pieces. Most of the materials in the mobile phones can be recycled and used again. 【4】 For example, phone batteries contain nickel and cadmium. The nickel is used to make steel and the cadmium can be used to make new batteries.” explains Mike.
“【5】 You can usually just take it into a mobile phone shop and they wilt send it to us,” says Mike.
So before you throw that old mobile phone away, use it the last time: search for a recycler near you and give them a call.
A．Recycling your old phone is easy.
B．Send it to us and we’ll recycle it.
C．How much is your old mobile phone worth?
D．But what should we do with our old mobile phones?
E．Millions of mobile phones are thrown away every year.
F．Recycling materials helps keep the environment greener and cleaner.
G．We take apart the old phones and they are used to make new products.
24、If you go into the forest with friends, stay with them. If you don’t, you may get lost. If you get lost, these are what you should do. Sit down and stay where you are.

Keep up shouting or whistling. Always three times together. When people hear you. they will know that you are not just making a noise for fun. They will let you know that they have heard your signal. They will give you two shouts or two whistles. When a signal is given twice, it is an answer to a call for help.
If you don’t think that you will get help before night comes, try to make a little house with branches. Make yourself a bed with leaves and grass.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Eartha lost her balance and fell heavily onto the floor. “I’ll never be as flexible as you are, Grandma.” she sighed softly.
Eartha’s Grandma had been practising yoga for more than 50 years, who could twist, bend and curl her body with ease. She could even stand on her hands and pull her body into different poses.
“Eartha, your name means ‘patience’.You need patience for yoga,” said her Grandma.
Like many schools in the country,Eartha’ s school held an annual yoga competition. Eartha wanted to make her Grandma proud. But she could hardly stand on one leg.
Grandma returned to the kitchen.Eartha kept practicing hard. She stood straight, her arms at her sides. She moved her hands and knees, arching her back. All of these poses were easy,while the competition was certain to be harder. So she tried more challenging poses, lying on her stomach and pushing up on her hands. Her arms soon got tired and she collapsed to the floor. Eartha wandered into the kitchen.
“Finished already?” asked Grandma.
“It’s hard,” Eartha said. “How did you get to be so strong?”
Grandma smiled. “Patience.”
The next morning, Eartha felt ached and sore all over the body. Her legs hurt so badly from the poses she practiced that she even wanted to quit. However, her grandmother’s words echoed in her mind, and she held the pose for a longer time.
Each day Eartha would practice anew pose, before going over the poses she had practiced the previous few days.With the date of the competition approaching, she started to feel stronger and more flexible. Her arms and legs stopped trembling.
The day of the yoga competition arrived as expected. In the gym, Eartha lay on her back with her knees bent and placed her hands on the floor behind her. Everything went smoothly. Just then,so eager was she to win Grandma’s pride that her poses displayed a mix of impatience, and rigidness. Eartha fell on the mat, which cost her edge over other competitors. A bell rang, ending the first half of the competition.
1.续写词数应为150左右:
2.请在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Thinking she ruined all because of impatience, Eartha looked at the audience for Grandma.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Calm and confident, Eartha stepped on the stage for the second half of the competition.
