Homesick is a compound(復(fù)合的) word made up of HOME and SICK. You know what each   46   means on its own, of course. But do you know the meaning    47   they are used together? The definition(定義) of homesick is SICK FOR HOME. It means you miss your home.
Now think for a minute   48 SEASICK. If you change the word HOME in the definition to the word SEA, would the definition   49 SEASICK? Does seasick mean SICK FOR SEA? It means something quite   50 . Seasick means SICK BY THE MOVEMENT ON THE SEA. When you are    51   ,the only place you want to be is at home. When you are seasick,    52   you want to be is at sea.
Have you ever   53   a person being heartsick? Heartsick doesn’t mean that something is wrong with a person’s heart. People are heartsick when they are    54  deep inside as if their hearts are broken.
And we also have other compound words, such as handshake and    55  . Perhaps you may write definitions for them. It must be helpful to know some thing like this in your English study.

Everybody can suffer from stress. No matter what your age is, you can feel stressed out by things that are happening in your life. Teenagers, however, have many more opportunities to get stressed than people in any other age group. Being a teenager is hard. You are not a child any more, but you are not an adult, even though you have to deal with some very grown-up problems and decisions. Families can be one of the biggest causes of stress, such as problems with parents arguing at home, or problems with brothers and sisters. Teenagers also have a lot of stress from school, either from their teachers or from their friends. Some teenagers also feel stressed about choosing their education after high school. Getting a place at university can be very difficult and some cannot afford to go to university.

Sadly, there is nothing we can do to remove these causes of stress from the 1ives of teenagers, but you can learn the best way to deal with it.

Children can spend hours a day looking at computer screens and other digital devices(數(shù)碼設(shè)備). Some eye doctors say this leads to an increase in “computer vision syndrome(電腦視力綜合癥).”
Nathan Bonilla-Warford is an optometrist(驗光師)in Tampa, Florida. He has seen an increase in problems in children. “A lot more children come into the office either because their parents have noticed that they have headaches or red or watery eyes or discomfort, or because their nearsightedness appears to be increasing and they’re worried,” he says.
Dr. Bonilla-Warford says part of the problem is that children may be more likely to pay no attention to early warning signs than adults. “Even if their eyes start to feel uncomfortable or they start to get a headache, they’re less likely to tell their parents, because they don’t want to have the game or the computer or whatever taken away,” he explains.
He says another part of the problem is that people blink(眨眼)less often when they use digital devices. He says, “A person who uses an electronic device blinks about one third as much as we normally do in everyday life. And so that can result in the front part of the eye drying and not staying protected like normal.”
Eye doctors offer suggestions like following which is known as the 20/20/20 rule. That means every twenty minutes look away twenty feet or more for at least twenty seconds from whatever device you’re using.
Other suggestions include putting more distance between you and the device and using good lighting. Of course, another way is to spend less time looking at screens. Many experts say children should spend no more than two hours a day using digital devices—with no screen time for children under two.
But not all eye doctors have noticed an increase in problems in children. Dr. David Hunter, from Children’s Hospital Boston, has not seen an increase in his practice. “While it is possible to develop fatigue looking at screens for a long period of time, there’s certainly no proof that it actually causes any damage(傷害)to the eyes.” he says.
小題1:Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.Dr. Bonilla-Warford thinks using computers causes nearsightedness.
B.People keep their eyes protected against drying by blinking normally.
C.Children under two can watch TV for less than two hours a day.
D.Dr. David Hunter says headache causes an increase in eye problems.
小題2:What does the underlined word “fatigue” mean?
A.Interest.B.Ability.C.Tiredness.D.Difficulty.
小題3:What can be the best title for the passage?
A.Looking at Screen: Two Hours or More
B.How Can Children Use Their Eyes Properly
C.Using Digital Devices: Advantages and Disadvantages
D.How Much Screen Time Is Too Much for Children

While watching movies, it’s getting hard to tell what is and isn’t real. Thanks to computers, movie makers can now use their full imaginations. There’s even a new type of character--made entirely by computers—which is getting more and more screen time.
Making the impossible look easy has always been a part of movie magic. As far back as 1895, filmmakers used special effects in movies. Over the years, many few techniques(技術(shù)) were developed. Then, starting in the 1970s, computers took their place at the center of the process.
One of the first movies to widely use 3D computer generated(生成的,產(chǎn)生的) imagery (CGI) was Tron(1982). In the following years, more CGI characters were brought to life, one by one. Then, Jurassic park (1993) brought us an island full of man-eating dinosaurs. Shortly afterwards, Toy Story (1995) became the first cartoon made entirely with 3D CGI effects. It was a big hit, and audiences loved the characters.
By using “motion capture” technology, filmmakers can make the movements of CGI humans even more lifelike. With this technique, a real actor wears sensors(感受器,傳感器) on his face and body. The sensors record the actor’s movements and send the information to a computer. Then the movements are given to a CGI character. This technique was used to make the creature(生物,有生命的東西) Gollum in the second and third The Lord of the Rings movies (2002,2003). Other films, like Beowulf (2007), have also used motion capture to help create CGI humans.
It is still rather easy to tell that a CGI human is not real. But the technology is improving every year. Over time, many problems ( like the teeth and eyes looking fake) will be solved. We will certainly see more CGI animals, monsters, and people in movies and TV shows. The question is – in the future, how many real actors will be put out of work by computer actors?
小題1:What is the main idea?
A.Tron was important in the history of CGI films.
B.Many people go to the movies to see incredible special effects.
C.More and more film characters are being made by computers.
D.All the humans in Beowulf were CGI characters.
小題2:In what year was a film made with many CGI dinosaurs?
A.1895B.1982 C.1993D.2003
小題3:What was special about Gollum?
A.Motion capture was used to help make the charater.
B.Gollum had an important role in a CGI cartoon.
C.He was the only CGI character in the Lord of the Rings.
D.Little money was spent to bring the creature to life.
小題4:What does the world hit mean?
A.a(chǎn)ttackB.shotC.successD.try

Everybody dreams. But only some people remember their dreams. Our dreams often include all the senses—smells, sounds, sights, tastes and things we touch.
Early in the twentieth century, two famous scientists developed their personal ideas about dreams. Austrian psychiatrist(奧地利心理學(xué)家) Sigmund Freud believed people often dream about things they want but can’t have. Swiss(瑞士) psychiatrist Carl Jung worked closely with Freud for several years, but he believed dreams provide solutions to problems we face when we are awake.
Other researchers are studying how dreaming helps our bodies work with problems and very sad emotions(感情). Robert Stickgold is a professor of psychiatry (心理學(xué)教授). He says that when we dream, the brain is trying to make sense of the world. He does not agree with Sigmund Freud that dreaming is the way we express our hidden feelings and desires(愿望).
Scientists believe it is important to keep researching dreams. Yet there is still no agreement on exactly how the brain works when we are dreaming or why we dream.
小題1:Dreams          
A.a(chǎn)re remembered by everyone
B.express all that we think in our mind
C.include few senses and things we touch
D.include all the senses and things we touch
小題2:In the passage, all the psychiatrists         .
A.believe dreams can help people understand all the problems that they face
B.believe when we dream, the brain is trying to make sense of the world
C.study dream and dreaming and have their own different ideas
D.have the same idea that people often dream about the things they want
小題3:Which would be the best title (標(biāo)題) for the passage?
A.The fact of DreamsB.The Ways of Dreams
C.The Solutions to DreamsD.The Mystery of Dreams and Dreaming
