【題目】There is no doubt that going without sleep for too long makes us feel terrible, and that getting a good night’s sleep can make us feel ready to take on the world. 1 Here are some top tips on getting the most out of the night.

2 You’d better avoid eating any food three hours before bed, as it will lower your blood sugar during sleep and help minimize damage from too much sugar floating around.

Keep your bedroom dark. To get a good night’s sleep, you need a bedroom that is pleasant, inviting and welcoming. 3 This is because the all important sleep-inducing (催眠) hormone melatonin is extremely sensitive to light, and may not be produced optimally (最佳的) unless it’s completely dark.

4 The foundation of good sleep is a comfortable bed. The right mattress (床墊) can make the difference between a refreshing night’s sleep and poor quality sleep resulting in tiredness and fatigue.

Get into a relaxed state. 5 Both of them will help to take the mind off the daytime pressures.

Since the start of the 21st century, studies have linked a lack of sleep to many diseases, such as diabetes and obesity. Taking action now will lead to long-term benefits for you.

A. Take a bath or listen to soft music.

B. Never eat too much before bedtime.

C. Above all, it should be dark.

D. Healthy people value a good night’s sleep.

E. However, not all of us know the best way of getting it.

F. Experts suggest putting away your mobile phone.

G. Have a suitable bed, especially a suitable mattress.

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
It was an autumn morning shortly after my husband and I moved into our first house. Our children were upstairs unpacking,and I was looking out of the window at my father moving around mysteriously on the front lawn. “What are you doing out there?” I called to him.
He looked up, smiling. “I'm making you a surprise.” I thought it could be just about anything. When we were kids, he always created something surprising for us. Today, however, Dad would say no more, and caught up in the busyness of our new life , I eventually forgot about his surprise.
Until one gloomy day the next March when I glanced out of the window,I saw a dot of blue across the yard. I headed outside for a closer look. They were crocuses (番紅花)throughout the front lawn — blue, yellow and my favorite pink,with little faces moving up and down in the cold wind. I remembered the things Dad secretly planted last autumn. He knew how the darkness and dullness of winter always got me down. What could have been more perfectly timely to my needs?
My father's crocuses bloomed each spring for the next five seasons, always bringing the same assurance: Hard times are almost over. Hold on, keep going, and light is coming soon.
Then a spring came with the usual blooms but the next spring there were none. I missed the crocuses, so I would ask Dad to come over and plant new bulbs (植物球莖). But I never did. He died suddenly one October day. My family were in deep sorrow, leaning on our faith.
On a spring afternoon four years later, I was driving back when I felt depressed. It was Dad's birthday, and I found myself thinking about him. This was not unusual — my family often talked about him, remembering how he lived up to his faith. Suddenly I slowed as I turned into our driveway. I stopped and stared at the lawn. There on the muddy grass with small piles of melting snow, bravely waving in the wind, was one pink crocus.
How could a flower bloom from a bulb more than 18 years ago, one that hadn't bloomed in over a decade? But there was the crocus. Tears filled my eyes as I realized its significance.
Hold on, keep going, and light is coming soon. The pink crocus bloomed for only a day, but it built my faith for a lifetime.
(1)Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A.The author usually felt depressed in the season of winter.
B.The crocuses bloomed each spring before her father died.

A.it was not the first time that the author's father had made a surprise
B.the author was unpacking when her father was making the surprise
C.it kept bothering the author not knowing what the surprise was
D.the author knew what the surprise was because she knew her father
(3)The author's father should be best described as ______.
A.a part-time worker who loved flowers
B.a kind-hearted man who lived with faith
C.a full-time gardener with skillful hands
D.an ordinary man with doubts in his life
(4)What can be the best title for the passage?
A.Crocuses — My Source of Faith
B.Crocuses— Father's Surprise

Danielle Steel, America's sweetheart, is one of the hardest working women in the book business. Unlike other productive authors who write one book at a time, she can work on up to five. Her research before writing takes at least three years. Once she has fully studied her subjects, ready to dive into the book, she can spend twenty hours nonstop at her desk.
Danielle Steel comes from New York and was sent to France for her education. After graduation, she worked in the public relations and advertising industries. Later she started a job as a writer which she was best fit for. Her achievements are unbelievable: 390 million copies of books in print, nearly fifty New York Times best-selling novels, and a series of “Max and Martha” picture books for children to help them deal with the real-life problems of death, new babies and new schools. Her 1998 book about the death of her work shot to the top of the New York Times best-selling list as soon as it came out. Twenty-eight of her books had been made into films. She is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for one of her books being the Times best-seller for 381 weeks straight.
Not satisfied with a big house, a loving family, and a view of the Golden GateBridge, Danielle Steel considers her readers to be the most important resource and has kept in touch with them by e-mail. While she is often compared to the heroines of her own invention, her life is undoubtedly much quieter. But, if she does have anything in common with them, it is her strength of will and her inimitable (獨特的) style. There is only one Danielle Steel.

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
You never played the video dance game? Now such games are used to help lose weight!
Like many other teenage boys, Jones loves sports. But at 5 feet, 175 pounds, he found his weight in trouble. His doctor wanted him to lose 50 pounds so that he may be a good football game player by the end of the summer.
Jones chose the popular Dance Revolution video game at home to increase his activity. He had lost about 10 pounds by changing his diet. Now, after two weeks' playing the game, he has lost another 10!
A health study is being done by an insurance company. The company hopes that the game will lead to better health and lower costs. “Obesity claims last year cost us $ 77 million. We have to cut those costs,” said a member of the insurance group. The company provides a game console (游戲主機), a dance mat and software for the six-month, $ 60,000 study.
The study is more than a commercial thing of an insurance company. It is widely supported by physical education and health professionals.
In West Virginia, 43% of the nearly 6,000 children examined for heart disease risk were considered over-weighted; more than 25% were too fat. “We are in a crisis of childhood obesity not only in West Virginia but in America,” said a researcher.
Researchers are now looking at the potential for improving effects by using the game. A teacher in West Virginia has been using the video games in her classes since last fall. She reported that the game does improve heart health as well as eye-hand coordination (協(xié)調(diào)能力), and her students take the video game as a great alternative to jumping rope or ball games.
The US Education Department is putting the game in 20 schools to control childhood obesity. Well, are you going to try such to dance away your extra weight?
(1)The underlined part is trying to tell us _____.
A.the study involves many insurance companies
B.the study is only an insurance company's business
C.the study is less important than the insurance company's money
D.it's not only the insurance company that is concerned about the study
(2)It can be inferred that _____.
A.the government thinks highly of the dance game
B.in West Virginia, more than 25 % of the adults were too fat
C.a teacher is a failure in using the video game in her classes
D.the US Education Department isn't interested in the game
(3)The most suitable title of the passage is _____.
A.Dance Away Your Weight
B.Play the Video Dance Game
C.Solve the Problem of Obesity
D.Cut the Cost of Obesity Claims

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
The average(平均的)American child spends three to five hours a day watching TV. In 1961, the average child began to watch television at age three; however, today it is nine months. Yet, most parents think that television has bad influence on their children. For example, in the early 1970s, my parents believed that my bad eyesight was the result of sitting too close to the screen, and they therefore made my stay at least six feet from it. Today, most people have no such worry, but many new ridiculous (荒謬的) sayings have appeared:
*TV makes kids stupid. Many children watch more educational programs when they are pre-schoolers. When they grow up, they can read more books and have much better ideas to solve difficult problems than other children.
*TV makes kids violent. The real story is not so simple. Hundreds of studies show that watching violence on TV makes children more aggressive (好斗的). But a study of over 5,000 children also finds that some positive programs make children kinder. The problem is that kids are increasingly watching shows with violence instead of those suitable for their age.
*Sitting around watching TV makes kids overweight. An experiment finds that when children watch less television, they do lose extra weight; however, reducing their television time does not make them more active. The real problem lies in snacking (吃零食). A widespread habit for kids, and junk-food advertisements.
*TV helps kids get to sleep. The opposite is true. The more television children watch, the more likely they are to have irregular sleep and nap (小睡) patterns. Allowing kids to watch television is part of the problem, not the solution.
(1)Which one is the advantage of educational TV programs?
A.They will make children solve difficult problems better than others.
B.they will improve children's ability to get along with others.
C.They are likely to make children more aggressive.
D.They will make sure of children's success in the future.
(2)Why are children spending much time watching TV likely to be fat?
A.Watching TV makes children lazy and inactive.
B.Children are attracted by the food advertisement on TV.
C.Watching TV doesn't burn up as much fat as doing sports.
D.Children like to snack while watching TV.
(3)What influence does watching TV have on a child's sleep?
A.Children are likely to sleep deeper after watching TV.
B.Children's sleep time will be greatly reduced.
C.It will make children form a bad habit of sleeping.
D.It will make children sleep easier.
(4)What is the purpose of this text?
A.To increase people's knowledge of watching TV.
B.To warn parents of the disadvantages of watching TV.
C.To explain the bad influences that watching TV has on children.
D.To correct parents' wrong ideas of television's effect on children.
