Having enough sleep can make the difference between a great day and a terrible one! Here are the tips for a good night's sleep: First, go to bed and get up at the same time, even if you haven't gotten a good night's sleep. Sleeping late for just a few days can change your body clock to a different cycle. Also, avoid big meals at night. Eating heavy rich food within two hours of bedtime can keep you awake, Your stomach works hard because of those fatty foods, and that may keep you up. Your body produces a chemical called melatonin that helps you sleep. Light changes the amount of melatonin. It produces more in the evening and less in the daytime. So at night turn off your TV and PC. Also, don't read from abacklit device(有背光的设备) like an iPad. Some scientists think that the light from those devices stops your body from making melatonin. So turn those screens off at least an hour before bedtime. After a good night's sleep, you'll be able to face a new day. |

25、In some science fiction movies, evil robots refuse to die, no matter how hard people fight back.
Now science fiction has become science fact. For the first time, scientists have made a robot that can take a beating (挨打) and keep on going. Scientists from Cornell University made the robot, which looks like a spider with four legs.
Until now, even the most advanced (先进的) robot was almost certain to break down when it was damaged. That is because its computer inside simply doesn’t know how to make the machine work after its shape has changed.
To deal with this problem, the scientists put eight motors (发动机) and two sensors (传感器) that read how the machine is working. They all give signals to the machine’s software. Using this information, the computer can then figure out the machine’s shape at any moment.
The new technology is a big advance in robot-making, scientists say, and it’s far from scary. It may someday help scientists create better artificial (假的) arms and legs and give new freedom to people who losethem. It might also help scientists understand how people and animals figure out their own sense of place in space.
“It has been difficult to design robots that can work well when the environment changes or when it’s damaged,” says Olaf Sporns of Indiana University in US. “With this work, we are nearer to solving this problem.”
【1】Why do robots easily break down when they are damaged?
A. They cannot repair themselves.
B. The computer has changed a lot.
C. They have no computers inside.
D. The computer cannot work if the robot changes.
【2】The new technology allows the robot to _________.
A. do house work for humans
B. keep working after being damaged
C. remember a lot of information
D. tell people where it is
【3】The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 5 refers to ________.
A. sensors B. robots
C. arms and legs D. scientists
【4】How do the sensors in the robot work?
A. They can replace the computer when it’s broken.
B. They can find out where the damage comes from.
C. They help the computer learn the robot’s condition.
D. They can send signals to the person who uses the robot.
【5】The passage is probably from_____________.
A. a newspaper B. an advertisement
C. a tour guide D. an application
26、 Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, “Happiness depends upon ourselves.” In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future—for example, getting into college or getting a good job—that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life's simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favourite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.
Another secret of living a happy life is to be active, and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time. Many people experience this dancing, or playing a sport, such as swimming. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity.
Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.
【1】According to the writer, which isn't a simple thing in life?
A.Enjoying the present.
B.Reading a book.
C.Spending time with close friends.
D.Spending too much time getting a good job.
【2】The best title(标题) of the passage is ________.
A.Money Makes You Happy
B.The Secrets of Happiness
C.Ideas for Helping Other People to Be Happy
D.Good Friends Make You Happy
【3】The second paragraph tells us that ________.
A.the more friends you have, the happier you will be
B.we shouldn't think about our future
C.happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life
D.some people fail to live a happy life
【4】The passage gives us ________ pieces of advice on happiness.
A.one B.two C.three D.four
【5】The writer thinks that ________.
A.everyone knows how to live a happy life
B.it's wrong to spend time on work
C.hobbies take up too much time
D.doing good things for someone can make you happier
27、 This is the story of a man who works in a big factory. I have seen him for years, but I've never paid any attention to him. He was a little bit weird (怪异的). He always wore an old red hat and carried a rubbish bag. He usually spent his break time and his lunchtime walking around in that big old factory and collecting used tins (铝罐).
One day, I was fixing one of the broken machines in the factory when this "tin man" came with his bag. As usual, he picked up the tins, which were all over the place. My manager was standing there, watching me.
When I finished my job, I heard my manager ask the "tin man" about what he was going to do with those tins he had collected. I never even thought about this kind of question, because I always assumed (推断) that "tin man" would take those tins to the recycling center.
Unexpectedly, the "tin man" answered, "I will give these tins to my neighbor. He has epilepsy (癫痫) and cannot work."
I was shocked to hear that, so I asked him, "You mean you collect all those tins just to help your neighbor?"
"I know this does not help much," he said. "But I give everything to him, because he cannot work. He needs help."
It was the most beautiful moment of my life. It has made me feel humble (谦卑的) every day since then.
【1】The writer has paid much attention to the tin man for years.
【2】The tin man always spent his all day collecting used tins.
【3】The tin man's neighbor didn't have ability to work because of his illness.
【4】Those tins were taken to the recycling center by the tin man.
【5】The passage mainly tells us that we should help others in our own ways.
28、任务型阅读
阅读材料,将A、B、C、D四个标题与标题后的四段文字配对,然后完成50题。
A. Remembering the reader B. Writing the first sentence C Reading and rewriting D. Thinking on paper |
Sooner or later everyone has to write something like a thank-you note, a report at a meeting , a complaint or an apology.If you hate writing assignments in school, or if you still fear to put pen to paper, facing that empty page is almost as frightening as you’re facing a tiger.How to write it? There’s no mystery.Clear writing is just clear thinking.Here are some techniques for you.
【1】
Sit down with a pencil and paper or at the computer screen and start thinking about what you want to say, why it’s important, why it matters, and what its impact is on the reader.Just get the ideas down.The next step is to go back and put them in order.
【2】
Try to make your first sentence catch the reader’s eyes, because if it can’t, the reader isn’t going to read on.Get a good, clear lead sentence that summarizes your points and that answers the reader’s question “What’s in it for me?” If you can’t do it in one sentence, then do it in two or three but keep them short.
【3】
Short, simple words are better than long words.Short sentences are better than long sentences.Remember that the goal is to communicate, not to express yourselves.Most people are so devoted to what they want to say that they forget somebody else has to be able to read it.Too much information makes you lose readers before they understand what you want to say.
【4】
Read what you have written out aloud, and listen for any awkward sentences.All good writers read, then rewrite.Back off a little bit from what you’re writing.It’s an old standard, but if you can, write something and come back a day later.
【5】How do you write a good article? Please write down one of your suggestions.(不少于5个单词)
