1.【题文】Around the world, girls do better than boys at school. These are the findings of a recent study that looked at the test results of l.5 million 15-year-olds in 74 regions across the globe．The level of gender equality in those regions made no difference to the results．Other factors, such as the income level of the region also had little impact on the findings．1n only three regions - Colombia, Costa Rica and the Indian state Hunches Pradesh．- was the trend reversed with boys doing better．

He goes on to say' that boys often cluster together in larger groups than girls．Because of this they are more likely to be influenced by per pressure and develop a gang mentality．He says that GCSEs require a lot of solo work and are not viewed as 'cool‘ ill a baldish culture．
This is backed up by research in the UK that says girls are out-performing boys at the age of five．So what is the answer: I Should girls and boys be educated separately?

appeared angry．
Interestingly, the dogs were not provided with the entire face．Some dogs were show Ti only upper halves while the others observed lower halves．That's because the scientists believe humans show their eruptions on their equities face．
After some training ill．e how to recognize small differences like the wrinkles between the eyes or the changes in their shape that accompany the happy or angry expressions, the dogs were mostly able to identify the correct expression not only on a familiar face but on a strange face, the researchers concluded the dogs were smart-enough to read human emotions．

pain. I was freed from gym in school growing up. I became lazy and accepted the fact that I would always be overweight. I didn‘t believe in myself. I overate all the time. I would eat lots of sweets, processed foods, chips and fast foods. I reached my heaviest of 287 pounds and a size 24 jeans and XXXL shirts.
In December 2013, my family and I went on a trip to Disneyland. We walked 10 miles each day we were there. To my surprise, I did not have any pain. I suddenly realized something. I knew from that point I needed to get moving to ease my pain and lose the weight. I had walked before but never to that extent. I knew I had to push past the pain and the weight would come off.
I was invited to train with a friend, and at first I couldn‘t make up my mind to go. I was tired of being in pain. After two weeks, I knew that I had to start somewhere. I took my friend up on her invitation and began working out to lots of physical programs. I began eating non-processed foods.
I ate lots of fruits and vegetables. I lost 92 pounds in a year. Now I rarely eat out. I would rather cook my meals from the very beginning so I know what is in them. I do allow myself a good meal once a week. By allowing myself the good meal, I keep away from overeating.
I believe in myself now. I am a better mother to my three boys. I feel stronger. I am a happier person all around. I have even registered for my very first 5K walk/run. I have a newfound love for life and want to inspire others to believe in themselves, so last October I became a BeachBody coach to help others in their fitness journeys. I have always enjoyed helping others, and now I want to be able to help people change their lives.

20.【题文】Perhaps you‘re someone who lined up all of your dolls, action figures, and stuffed animals in front of a mini-chalkboard when you were a kid. You read to them and taught them how to solve math problems. Maybe when older, you became an after-school tutor and thought, ―Hey, I‘d like to do that full-time.‖
The inspiration to become a teacher hits some people when they‘re young while others become teachers later in life. Whether you want to study to be a teacher right out of high school or you change from another career into teaching, the best teachers share a few things in common. Of course, teachers have to have at least an undergraduate degree, and many districts require teachers to earn a graduate teachi ng degree. Many school districts have begun requiring a master‘s degree. However, on top of education, good teachers also display some common characteristics that help to inspire and motivate their students.
Some teachers prefer to teach in a very structured style while others prefer assigning group work, encouraging class discussions, and letting students do independent projects. Both types of teachers can be very well-organized as long as they have a reason for what they do and they‘ve carefully planned t heir lessons. If you‘re good at making material not only f un but memorable and if you can present it in a brief way, then you probably have the organizational skills to become a teacher. Great teachers know the subjects that they teach inside and out. They can explain the history, current developments, and future trends of the subjects. Also, they understand the basic theories of their fields. Elementary school teachers need to have command of various subjects, while middle school and high school teachers usually focus on a single subject area and they develop in-depth knowledge of that subject.
If you decide to become a teacher, you should commit to learning everything that you can while in high school and college. You also should develop good study habits that allow you to remember information about your field.
1. The underlined part ―do that‖ in Paragraph 1 can be replaced by ―________‖:
A. work as a teacher

D. take care of kids
2. The passage tells us that the basic requirement of being a teacher is ________.

1.【题文】There‘s nothing like a good night‘s sleep—but what does that really mean? It turns out
that the answer depends not only on your age, but also on your lifestyle. Some people are productive and happy with fewer hours of sleep, while others need more. Still, experts can determine guidelines that work for most people. The National Sleep Foundation researched the topic and gave new recommendations this week. The foundation acknowledges that sleep needs will vary — lifestyle and stress should be taken into consideration — but their recommendations offer a general guideline. For example, teenagers (14 —17 years old) ne 8—10 hours, sleep every day.
To create the recommendations, some sleep and medical experts reviewed 312 articles from journals published during the last decade. This is the first time that any professional organization has developed age-specific recommended sleep durations based on a systematic review of the world scientific literature.
A lack of sleep can be linked to weight gain, because that causes an increase in appetite, according to the foundation. It can also have serious consequences on the brain. People who do not get enough sleep are at increased risk for depression, and can endanger others. Those that become sleepy while driving, for example, risk both their lives and the lives of those around them. Researchers also have found in the past that too much sleep can have negative effects. Low socioeconomic status and depression reportedly are significantly associated with longer sleep. However, experts nowadays find that research on oversleeping is still unconvincing and needs more attention. Currently, there is no strong evidence that sleeping too much has health consequences. There is, however, laboratory evidence that short sleep durations of four to five hours have negative consequences. We need similar laboratory studies to determine whether long sleep durations result in physiological changes that could lead to disease before we make any recommendations against sleep extension.
1. Which is TRUE about sleeping time?
A. The time you need for sleep is related to your state of mind.
B. Experts‘ guideline for sleeping time applies to all the people.
C. The less you sleep, the more productive you are.
D. The more you sleep, the more energetic you are.
2. How did die National Sleeping Foundation do the research?
A. By interviewing different people.
B. By reading lots of articles.
C. By consulting other experts.
D. By doing systematic experiments.
3. The research shows that people without enough sleep will _______.
A. lose some weight
B. eat more food
C. dream during their sleep
D. drive faster than usual
4. From Paragraph 4, we can learn that _______.
A. too much sleep may result in social changes
B. researchers now agree with those ill the past
C. more research on oversleeping is needed
D. research on oversleeping is quite convincing
5. From which section of a newspaper is the passage most probably taken?
A. Health.
B. Psychology
C. Sport.
D. Education.
