Sleepless at Night

It was a normal summer night. Humidity (湿气) hung in the thick air. I couldn&39;t go to sleep,partly because of my cold and partly because of my expectations for the next day. My mum had said that tomorrow was going to be a surprise.＜br＞

Sweat stuck to my aching body. Finally, I gathered enough strength to sit up. I looked out of my small window into the night. There was a big bright moon hanging in the sky, giving off a magic light.＜br＞

I couldn&39;t stand the pressure anymore, so I did what I always do to make myself feel better. I went to the bathroom and picked up my toothbrush and toothpaste. I cleaned my teeth as if there was no tomorrow. Back and forth, up and down.＜br＞

Then I walked downstairs to look for some signs of movement, some life. Gladiator, my cat frightened me as he meowed (喵喵地唱出) his sad song. He was on the old orange couch (长沙发) , sitting up on his front legs, waiting for something to happen. He looked at me as if to show "I&39;m lonely, pet me. I need a good hug (紧抱) ." Even the couch begged me to sit on it.＜br＞

In one movement I settled down onto the soft couch. This couch represented my parents&39;＜br＞

marriage, my birth, and hundreds of other little events.＜br＞

As ! held Gladiator, my heart started beating heavily. My mind was flooded with questions:＜br＞

What&39;s life？ Am I really alive？ Are you listening to me？ Every time I moved my hand down Gladiator&39;s body, I had a new thought; each touch sang a different song.＜br＞

I forgot all about the heat and the next day&39;s surprise. The atmosphere was so full of warmth and silence that I sank into its arms. Falling asleep with the big cat in my arms, I felt all my worries slowly move away.

The author of the passage could not go to sleep partly because ___________. 查看材料

A.it was too cold

B.it was too dry

C.he had a cold

D.he had a fever

Step Back in Time

Do you know that we live a lot longer now than the people who were born before us？ One hundred years ago the average woman lived to be 45. But now， she can live until at least 80.

One of the main reasons for people living longer is that we know how to look after ourselves better. We know which foods are good for us and what we have to eat to make sure our bodies get all the healthy things they need.We know why we sometimes get ill and what to do to get better again. And we know how important it is to do lots of exercise to keep our hearts beating healthily.

But in order that we don"t slip back into bad habits， let"s have a look at what life was like 100 years ago.

Families had between 15 and 20 children， although many babies didn"t live long.Children suffered from lots of diseases， especially tickets （佝偻病） and scurvy （坏血病）， which are both caused by bad diets. This is because many families were very poor and not able to feed their children well.

Really poor families who lived in crowded cities like London and Manchester often slept standing up，bending over a piece of string， because there was no room for them to lie down.

People didn"t have fridges until the 1920s. They kept fresh food cold by storing it on windowsills （窗台板）， blocks of ice， or even burying it in the garden.

Some children had to start work at the age of seven or eight to earn money for their parents. If you had lived 100 years ago， you might well be selling matchsticks （火柴杆）（a job done by many children ） or working with your dad by now.

Read with Greater Speed

Do you have difficulty reading in class？ If so, a special reading program that helps match sounds with letters could speed up your brain.

At least one out of every five elementary school students in the US has trouble learning to read, even when the students are good at other subjects._________ (46)

Researchers from Yale University, US, studied a group of children from New York and Connecticut State. As part of the study, 37 struggling readers received special tutoring.

Every day, instructors worked with them on recognizing how written letters represent units of sound called phonemes (音素). _________(47)

By the end of the school year, these children could read faster than before. They also made fewer mistakes, and understood more of what they read than they could earlier in the year.

As part of their study, the researchers used a special machine to take action photos of the students&39; brains. _________(48) This is the same part of the brain that becomes active when good readers read. This activated brain area appears to include a structure that helps people recognize familiar written words quickly. In lower level readers, this structure remains inactive.

A year later, the brain structure was still working hard in the students who had gone through the special tutoring, and they continued to do well in reading tests._________ (49) However, some researchers still doubt the study. _________ (50)

A.Many adults are interested in matching sounds with letters.

B.The students also practiced reading aloud and spelling.

C.The biggest challenge for many of these kids， scientists say， is matching sounds with letters.

D.Another group in the study who went through a more traditional reading program didn"t show the same progress.

E.The pictures showed all increase in activity in the back of the brain on the left side

F.They believe that reading without making any noise or linking words to sounds is more efficient.

根据以下材料，回答题

Wikipedia Imposes New Curbs （约束） on Editing Articles

Wikipedia， the famous online encyclopedia， is looking to impose more discipline with new restrictions on the editing of articles.

The latest changes come as Wikipedia tries to balance a need for credibility and a desire for openness. While anyone can still edit entries， the site is testing pages that won"t register changes until they are approved by an experienced Wikipedia editor. If the site"s users respond well to the test run， the new restrictions will apply to all entries for living people in the next few weeks.

The idea is to block the kind of vandalism（故意破坏）that has damaged some pages. In one of the most recent embarrassments， US Democratic Senators Robert Byrd was prematurely declared dead by the editors. Still， Wikipedia risks discouraging legitimate editing if restrictions on changes or additions become too burdensome， keeping articles from getting better or keeping up with events.

That may be especially true on more obscure pages with fewer active volunteers to approve edits timely.Aware of the risks， Wikipedia has set the criteria for "experienced editor" status relatively low.Users who are registered for a few days can give changes， said Jay Walsh， a spokesman for the nonprofit Wikimedia Foundation， which runs the site.

A more uniform. system for filtering changes on Wikipedia represents a step back from the site"s original philosophy， which called for creating the collective knowledge of volunteer editors without any major restrictions.

Some observers believe Wikipedia must continue tightening editing policies if it wants to gain credibility. "I"m just waiting for the other shoe to drop，" said Erie Goldman， director of the High Tech Law Institute at the Santa Clara University School of Law. "My hope is that Wikipedia still exists and is still considered a useful site，" Goldman said. "But it will be at that point a very tightly controlled site. It won"t have that veneer （外表） of a site that anyone can contribute to. They haven"t closed the drawbridge （吊桥） . People can still get in. But it keeps going up and up and up."

Separately， the Omidyar Network， a philanthropic （博爱的，慈善的） investment group started by eBay founder Pierre Omidyar， said on Tuesday it is committing $2 million over two years to the Wikimedia Foundation. Omidyar Network"s grant will support Wikimedia"s goals of bringing free educational content to people around the world and supporting more people to help create that content.

What is the latest change of Wikipedia？查看材料

A.Now not everybody can edit entries in Wikipedia.

B.Fewer restrictions will be posed on the edition of entries.

C.Some of the pages will not register changes without the approval of an experienced editor.

D.All entries for living people will not be edited from now on.

根据以下材料，回答题。

Too Late to Regret It

When I was a junior， I met a second-year student in my department. He wasn"t tall or good-looking， but he was very nice， attractive and athletic. He had something that I admired very much. He was natural， warm， and sincere.

! disregarded （不顾） my parents" disapproval. We were very happy together. He picked me up from" my dorm every morning， and after class we would sit alongside the stream that ran through campus， or sunbathe （晒太阳） on the lawn. At night he would walk me back to my dorm. He came from a poor family， but in order to make me happy， he borrowed money from his friend to buy presents and meals for me. Our fellow students looked up to him-as a role model，and the girls envied 妒忌） me. He wasn"t a local， but wanted to stay here after graduation. I thought we had a future together.

However， when I got a part-time job during the summer vacation， people began giving me a lot of pressure， saying that a pretty， intelligent girl like me should find a better guy to spend time with. This was also what my family thought. He spent the summer in his hometown， so I was all by myself. When he got back， I began finding faults with-him. But his big heart and warmth soon drove all unpleasant，thoughts away. However， I had no idea how badly I had hurt him and that things would get worse.

I had a good part-time job off campus that paid pretty well. With my good performance at school， I also got admission to graduate school at one of China"s best universities. He， on the other hand， did not do so well at school or at work. I had to worry about his living expenses， job and scores.

Almost all my colleagues and friends advised me to break up with him. Then we had a quarrel last June. He was in great pain， and my cold words and bad moods started turning him away， Graduation time was drawing near. He said that he couldn"t put up with me anymore， and he said he wanted to go back to his hometown. I was shocked and looked at him in despair.

True love happens only once， but I found it out too late.

When did the author fall in love with the boy？查看材料

A.After she had a quarrel with him.

B.When she was a junior.

C.When she was a second-year student.

根据下面材料，回答题。

Hercules

Once upon a time there was a great Greek hero, Hercules. He was taller and stronger than anyone you have ever seen. On his shoulder he carried a club and in his hand he held a bow (弓).

He was known as the hero of a hundred adventures.

Hercules served a king. The king was afraid of him. So again and again he sent him on difficult tasks. One morning the king sent for him and told him to fetch three golden apples for him from the garden of the Singing Maidens (歌女). But no one knew where the garden was.

So Hercules went away. He walked the whole day and the next day and the next. He walked for months before he saw mountains far in the distance one fine morning. One of the mountains was in the shape of a man, with long, long legs and arms and huge shoulders and a huge head. He was holding up the sky. Hercules knew it was Atlas, the Mountain God. So he asked him for help.

Atlas answered, "My head and arms and shoulders all ache. Could you hold up the sky while I fetch the golden apples for you？"

Hercules climbed the mountain and shouldered the sky. Soon the sky grew very heavy. When finally Atlas came back with three golden apples, he said, "Well, you are going to carry the mountain for ever. I&39;m going to see the king with the apples."

Hercules knew that he couldn&39;t fight him because of the sky on his back. So he shouted: "Just one minute&39;s help. My shoulders are hurting. Hold the sky for a minute while I make a cushion (垫子) for my shoulders."

Atlas believed him. He threw down the apples and held up the sky. Hercules picked up the apples and ran back to see the king.

Hercules was the tallest man in the world. 查看材料
