was high，he was hot，and wished for a（19）place where he might read for a while and eat his dinner．While he hunted around the bank of the stream，he saw among the moss（苔藓）some fine wild（20），which were a bright red with ripeness（成熟）．"How good these will be with my bread and butter!"thought George．Lining（垫在…里）his little cap with（21），he set to work eagerly（急切地）to gather all he could find．He felt happy

potatoes are cheaper but more valuableD．sweet potatoes often cause health problems33．Sweet potatoes are good to people because they are rich in．A．fatB．vitamin AC．sugarD．Beta﹣Carotene．34．（8分）In many organizations，perhaps the best way to complete certain new projects is to gather a group of people into a team．Having a team of people attack a project offers several advantages．First of all，a group of people have more knowledge，more experience，and more skills in different fields than any single individual（个体）does．A group can work more quickly whenever the task is assigned．And a group can come up with highly creative solutions（解决办法）to problems because of the numbers of people who take part and greater resources they have．Also，a group is more likely to make risky decisions which a single individual might not make．This is because the group spreads responsibility（责任）to all the members．And thus，if the decision turns out to be wrong，no single individual can be held accountable（负有责任的）．Then，taking part in a group can be very rewarding for members of the team．Team members who have a voice in making a decision will no doubt feel better about doing the work than they might do what is imposed（把…强加于）on them by others．Last but not least，the team member has a much better change to"shine"．This isbecause they get more chances to have his or her contributions and ideas not only recognized（认可），but recognized as highly important．This kind of high﹣recognition is because a team's achievement or influence is much higher than the individual's．A team can finish and achieve what the individual can't do．And a team can reach a height which the individual can't reach．34．How many advantages of a team are mentioned in the passage？A．TwoB．ThreeC．FourD．Five35．The first paragraph mainly tells us that．A．many organizations gather people into teamsB．it is good to form a team to complete tasksC．new projects are often sent to large groupsD．people would like to communicate in groups36．Which of the following is true according to paragraphs 2&3？A．A group of people are sure to be highly creative．B．A team always finish more tasks than individuals．C．It's difficult for a team to make creative decisions．D．The members of a group can share responsibility．37．A team is worth taking part in because．A．individuals do not have rights to make decisionsB．team members have better changes to be excellentC．team members are easily respected by other peopleD．individuals can not achieve goals or reach a height．38．（8分）We spend about one﹣third of our lives asleep．This may should like a lot of time，but it is not wasted．Our bodies need sleep to stay healthy．Not getting enough sleep can make us sick．Sleep and our immune（免疫）systemThe immune system protects the body from diseases and infections（传染）．Not getting enough sleep hurts this protective system．The Mayo Clinic is a research hospital in the United States．Its website explains thatwhen we sleep our bodies produce proteins（蛋白质）that support sleep and help us fight infections．They add that infection﹣fighting antibodies（抗体）are reduced during periods when you don't get enough sleep．A new study from the University of Washington in the U．S．seems to confirm this．Dr．Nathaniel Watson was the lead writer of the study．Watson says his study shows that the immune system works best when the body gets enough sleep．For the study，Watson and his team studied 11pairs of twins．This is an important difference from other sleep studies．Other research did not study twins．Researchers found that the twin who slept less had a weaker immune system．Watson says his study showed for the first time that a long﹣term lack（缺乏）of sleep shuts down parts of the immune system．He says parts that move white blood cells around the body are influenced．White blood cells fight infections in the body．Watson's study provides more evidence（证据）that sleep is important to"overall health"．And sleep is especially important to immune health．The researchers published their findings in the magazine Sleep．How much sleep is enough？To stay in good health，experts at the Mayo Clinic say that adults should get 7 to 8h ours of sleep．Teenagers need 9 to 10 hours．And school﹣aged children may need more than 10 hours of sleep a night．Experts say our sleep becomes poor in our 30s．By the time we reach our 50s，the average person has lost 50 percent of their ability to have a restful sleep．These people also have trouble falling asleep and staying asleep through the night．From middle age on，they say these problems only get worse，and they can influence our health．Signs you may not be getting enough sleep●You're always hungry or you've gained weight．●You have trouble making decisions．●You have trouble remembering things．●Your skin doesn't look good．●You are having trouble seei ng．38．From the first three paragraphs we know that．A．it is a waste to spend about one﹣third of our lives asleepB．we'll become seriously ill if we don't have enough sleepC．enough sleep does good to infection﹣fighting antibodiesD．immune system is protected when people begin to sleep39．From Watson's study，we know．A．enough sleep helps the immune system work wellB．the study of twins is a kind of common sleep studyC．twins need less sleep but have stronger immune systemD．sleeping for a long time is important to immune health40．Which of the following is right according to the passage？A．People don't need 7 to 8 hours of sleep a night in their fifties．B．The less you sleep every night，the more weight you'll lose．C．Teenagers should get more than 10hours of sleep a night．D．If your memory gets worse，you may not get enough sleep．41．What will probably be written in the following part？A．How to improve your sleepB．How important enough sleep is!C．How amazing if you look good!D．How to avoid trouble of seeing．42．（8分）"Oh boys，boys，don't throw stones at that poor bird，"said an old gray ﹣headed man．"Why，sir，"said a little boy，"she makes such a scream，that we can't bear her．""Yes，but she uses the voice which God gave her．And it is probably as pleasant to her friends as yours is to those who love you．Besides，I am afraid the stone will rebound （弹回），and hurt you as long as you live!""Rebound!We don't understand you，sir!""Well，come and I will tell you a story．""Is it a true story？""Yes．Every word is true．""Fifty years ago，I was a boy like you．I used to throw stones，and as I had no other boy very near me to play with，I threw them till I became very accurate（精确的）in my aim．"One day I went to work for an aged couple named Hamilton．They were very kind to everybody and everything．Few people had so many swallows（燕子）making their nests（鸟巢）under houses．Few had so many pets that seemed to love the couple．"For seven years a bird had come．After the long winter，the bird built her nest in the same place and raised her young ones there．She had just returned on the day that I went there to work．"During the day，I thought I would try my skill upon her．She sat upon a stick near her nest，and looked at me trustfully．I found a nice stone and threw it with my best skill．"It shot（击中）the bird on the head，and she dropped dead!"I was sorry as soon as I saw her fall．But the deed was done．All day long her mate flew about，and was so sad that he made my heart ache．Why had I taken a life so innocent（无辜的），and hurt the poor mate so deeply？"I said nothing to the old couple about it．But，through a grandchild，they found it out．Though they never said a word to me on the matter，they mourned the bird and buried（埋葬）it．I could never look them in the face afterwards．Oh，I had told them how sorry I was!"They have been dead many，many years．But don't you see how that stone rebounded and hit me？How deep it made upon my memory!How deep upon my conscience（良知）！Why，my dear boys，how I want to give a great deal today if I could do something for that deed!"For fifty years I have carried it in my memory．I have never spoken of it before．Yet if what I have now said shall prevent you from throwing a stone that may rebound and deeply hurt your conscience．I shall be very cheerful．"The boys at once dropped the stones they had in their hands．42．The

that you want to complete．By doing so，you will have a good plan for achieving your goals．Second，you should spend as much time online as if you were going to regular courses．Also，always try to set aside extra time to communicate with other students．Besides this，any post you put up online shows who you are．So make sure that you homework on time so that you don't fall behind．请将答案写在答题卡上76．What is

However，when thry have to go away on business or for some other reasons，and cannot take their pets along，they feel guilty about it and wish they could do something for their deeply loved pets. The Pet A Hotel is set up especially for this reason.What do we offer?The Pet Hotel offers pets large rooms and the latest equipment(设备).Like other hotel rooms，we offer color TVs，suitable beds，sofas and other pieces of furniture for pets.We prepare great food for the little guests，walk them at least twice a day，and provide them with all kinds of amusements(娱乐活动). In addition，we brush and clean pets. To make pets feel at home，we play the sort of music which is often played at their homes and turn the TV to the pets’ favorite channels. Pets will surely feel comfortable in our hotel!We also have video cameras in each room so that owners can check online twenty-four hours a day to make sure that the pets are having a good time at the hotel. We also have phones so that pet owners can call their pets and talk to them every day.How much does It cost?The prices change according to the size of the rooms. A regular room with standard service costs 1,500 dollars.31.Pet owners send their pets to the Pet Hotel probably because they ___________.A.treat pets as their close friendsB.can't take pets along on businessC.are not happy with their own petsD.Want to send their pets to others32.The Pet Hotel provides pets with___________.A.magazines and sofasB.color TVs and toysC.beds and magazinesD.color TVs and beds33.In the Pet Hotel，pets can__________.A.take photos for their ownersB.enjoy their favorite TV programsC.brush and clean themselvesD.book rooms according to their sizeBEach summer，you hear news that some sports players are sent to hospitals because it is too hot. Our bodies can't be outside in the sun for a long time. So in hot summers，be careful about playing sports outside.Firstly，to play sports safely in hot weather，you must drink water. Sports drinks are great for athletes，but they have so much sugar that they'll dehydrate(使脱水)you more. However，drinking a few bottles of sports drinks will be good for you.Secondly，be sure to take enough breaks to let your body rest. If your coach doesn't let you take enough breaks in the heat，don't wait until you feel uncomfortable. Just be honest with your coach when you need breaks.Thirdly，when you have a break，don't sit in the sun. With the sun beating down on you，you'll only heat up and sweat(冒汗)more. Take a seat under a tree，or even better，go indoors for a little while. Cooling yourself down can help you stay active longer.Fourthly，remember that the earlier in the day you start your exercise，the cooler it will be. If you can start practice before the sun comes up，you have a few good hours to practise in the cool hours of the morning. Also，the earlier you practise，the earlier you can finish the exercise. If you need more practice time，come back to the field later in the evening，when the sun is setting.Last but not least，you should watch what you eat. Eat food which is high in water，starch(淀粉)and carbonhydrate(糖类)，but be sure to get a good balance in your diet.As long as you pay attention to the above，playing sports safely in the heat isn't a difficult thing.34.How many pieces of advice are mentioned in the passage?A.ThreeB.FourC.FiveD.Six35.From Paragraph 5 we knowA.we'd better start our exercise earlyB.it is not wise to have practice after aunsetC.we have a long time to practise after sunriseD.it doesn't matter whether you practise early or late36.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.Sports drinks are good for you with no harm.B.You need to tell your coach when you feel tired.C.Sitting under a tree is better than staying indoors.D.Eating lots of sugar is necessary for sports safely.37.The passage mainly tells us aboutA.eating habits in hot summersB.drinking more water in the heatC.sports safely in hot weatherD.taking exercise in different periodsCGlobalization means that people，ideas，technology，money，services and many other things are moving between countries and changing the way people think and act.Not everyone thinks the same way about globalization. Some people think it is bad，and some people think it is good. Some believe that globalization helps rich people get richer and makes poor people poorer. These people say that globalization helps big companies like Coca-Cola and McDonald's destory(破坏) local businesses. However，the people who think globalization is a good thing argue that globalization helps poorer people to become richer. They also think that it doesn't destory local cultures. These people also believe globalization helps prevent wars. This is becausecountries with economic(经济的)connections will try hard to keep good relationahips so that their economies aren't destroyed.Whether you think globalization is good or bad，it affects the world in two areas：jobs and cultures.Globalization has had a very strong influence on jobs all over the would. For some workers，such as engincers，lawyers and bankers，globalization has been a good development. These workers are able to successfully compete(竞争)globally and have seen an incrase in their pay. But for those who work in factories or in the aervice industry(at hotels，shops and restaurants),it has not been good. Workers from poorer countries are trying to get these types of jobs. They will do the same job for less money. This decreases the pay for that job，so people get paid less to do it.Cultures have also been affected by globalization. Foods such as Japanese noodles，Inaian curry and French cheeses have spread around the world. We can also see an increase in the use of Chinese characters(汉字)in tattoos(文身). Some people get these tattoos but they don't really know what the characters mean. Globalization also affects the film industry. Most people have seen American movies. But because of globalization，Korean. Indian and Japanese movies have become more wouldwide.No one knows the future of globalization. Most experts agree that it will continue to grow and have an increasingly greater influence on people's lives in the future.38.Some people think giobalization is good because it mayA.change local culturesB.help local businesses developC.make rich people become richerD.help stop wars among countries39.According to Paragraph 4 we know .A.engineers will get a lower payB.people can get favourite jobs more easilyC.globalization greatly affects people's jobsD.workers from rich countries get paid less40.Globalization helps people in the worldA.know Chinese characters very wellB.go to different countries for moviesC.own the same culture in the endD.Enjoy foods from different countries41.What can we infer(推断)from the passage?A.Globalization is sure to do good to people.B.Globalization will be limited in the future.C.Globalization may change people's in the future.D.Globalization will be loved throughout the would.DWhen I was in the second grade，my teacher gave all her students some seeds(种子). She told us to watch the magic of the seeds once we planted them. Excitedly，I put a few seeds in my pot. I watered them for a few days and purple flowers came out.In class，I reported back to my teacher that the magic was the purple flowers. My classmates reported back with the red，white or yellow ones. I was wondering why we didn't have green flowers. When the bell rang，we drew a conclusion“a fiower garden is beautiful”，and this was my first gardening experience.Years later，one day，when we drone by Naperville downtown in a summer. Mom pointed out a big land.“Look，this is the community garden land.”she told me.“What is a community garden land?”I asked.“Whe n people live in apartments or town homes，they don't have much land. People pay a little money to rent(租)a piece of land from the city. They can grow anything.”“Why don't we rent one?”I curiously asked.“We don't need to.We have a house，so we have a small p iece of land.”A few years ago，an older couple moved in next door. They gave us some tomatoes from their garden. They grew the best tomatoes I had ever tasted. I asked my mom to buy some tomatoes just like our neighbors'. Mon said it was impossible to buy those tomatoes from the supermarket.So，last year，I decided to try. I had my dad dig out a small land in the back yard of our house，put it some peat moss(泥炭藓)and mushroom compost(蘑菇肥). For the start，I only planted some tomatoes and cucumbers. Day by day，I looked after my garden and took out weed (杂草).I was surprised to see that cucumbers actually grow on the vine，and my tomatoes had a special kind of earthly smell.At the same time，I found myself suddenly having an interest in weather. I always wished rain “You are an old farmer now.”One day，I found some tomatoes gone in one plant. I was a little sad. Who dared to steal my tomatoes?It was a few rabbits. When I was about to drive them away，my dad stopped me and said,“Alice，the rabbits are thirsty. Let them eat as much as they want. Sharing your food is a good thing.”Later on，I found people picking a few tomatoes in my little garden and eating them with a satisfying smile. I never said a word. Instead，I felt joy in my heart. When harvest time came，I picked so many fresh cucumbers and delicious tomatoes.In America，people grow gardens everywhere. The air is always fresh and clean because of many trees，different plants and beautiful flowers. People there learn to love our earch，and love hearing the e xpression“go hug a tree”. Gardening needs lots of hard work and patience，but mother earth rewards us a lot.42.The underlined word“teased”in Paragraph 6 is close to“”.A.played a joke onB.was strict withC.got angry withD.had pity on43.Alice learned to share things with others .A.when she began to plant seeds in the second gradeB.when she asked her mother to rent a piece of landC.after the couple next door gave her some tomatoesD.after her father stopped her driving the rabbits away44.We can learn from the passage thatA.gardening takes lots of time and effortB.gardening gives a few rewards to humansC.gardening helps the writer love tomatoesD.gardening makes the writer hate rainy days45.Which can be the best title for the passage?A.My Little GardenB.Gardening ExperiencesC.My Magic PlantsD.Gardening Knowledge四、词汇(本题共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分)A.请根据括号中的中文提示、英文释义或句意，写出句中所缺单词，使句子通顺。

There are some facts about sweet potatoes you probably don't know．（1）．What can we know about sweet potatoes from the passage？________A Sweet potatoes were first found in Africa．B The family of sweet potatoes includes yams．C Sweet potatoes are from American countries．D Sweet potatoes are closely related to lilies．（2）．From the passage we know that________．A sweet potatoes have a history of 5000 years．B Columbus was the first to find sweet potatoes．C white potatoes are cheaper but more valuable．D sweet potatoes often cause health problems．（3）．Sweet potatoes are good to people because they are rich in________．A fat ．B vitamin A ．C sugar ．D Beta﹣Carotene．18. In many organizations, perhaps the best way to complete certain new projects is to gather a group of people into a team．Having a team of people attack a project offers several advantages．First of all, a group of people have more knowledge, more experience, and more skills in different fields than any single individual（个体）does．A group can work more quickly whenever the task is assigned．And a group can come up with highly creative solutions（解决办法）to problems because of the numbers of people who take part and greater resources they have．Also, a group is more likely to make risky decisions which a single individual might not make．This is because the group spreads responsibility（责任）to all the members．And thus, if the decision turns out to be wrong, no single individual can be held accountable（负有责任的）．Then, taking part in a group can be very rewarding for members of the team．Team members who have a voice in making a decision will no doubt feel better about doing the work than they might do what is imposed（把…强加于）on them by others．Last but not least, the team member has a much better change to"shine"．This is because they get more chances to have his or her contributions and ideas not only recognized（认可）, but recognized as highly important．This kind of high﹣recognition is because a team's achievement or influence is much higher than the individual's．A team can finish and achieve what the individual can't do．And a team can reach a height which the individualcan't reach．（1）．How many advantages of a team are mentioned in the passage？________A Two ．B Three ．C Four ．D Five．（2）．The first paragraph mainly tells us that________．A many organizations gather people into teams．B it is good to form a team to complete tasks．C new projects are often sent to large groups．D people would like to communicate in groups．（3）．Which of the following is true according to paragraphs 2&3？________A A group of people are sure to be highly creative．B A team always finish more tasks than individuals．C It's difficult for a team to make creative decisions．D The members of a group can share responsibility．（4）．A team is worth taking part in because________．A individuals do not have rights to make decisions．B team members have better changes to be excellent．C team members are easily respected by otherpeople． D individuals can not achieve goals or reach a height．19. We spend about one﹣third of our lives asleep．This may should like a lot of time, but it is not wasted．Our bodies need sleep to stay healthy．Not getting enough sleep can make us sick．Sleep and our immune（免疫）systemThe immune system protects the body from diseases and infections（传染）．Not getting enough sleep hurts this protective system．The Mayo Clinic is a research hospital in the United States．Its website explains that when we sleep our bodies produce proteins（蛋白质）that support sleep and help us fight infections．They add that infection﹣fighting antibodies（抗体）are reduced during periods when you don't get enough sleep．A new study from the University of Washington in the U．S．seems to confirm this．Dr．Nathaniel Watson was the lead writer of the study．Watson says his study shows that the immune system works best when the body gets enough sleep．For thestudy, Watson and his team studied 11pairs of twins．This is an important difference from other sleep studies．Other research did not study twins．Researchers found that the twin who slept less had a weaker immune system．Watson says his study showed for the first time that a long﹣term lack（缺乏）of sleep shuts down parts of the immune system．He says parts that move white blood cells around the body are influenced．White blood cells fight infections in the body．Watson's study provides more evidence（证据）that sleep is important to"overall health"．And sleep is especially important to immune health．The researchers published their findings in the magazine Sleep．How much sleep is enough?To stay in good health, experts at the Mayo Clinic say that adults should get 7 to 8h ours of sleep．Teenagers need 9 to 10 hours．And school﹣aged children may need more than 10hours of sleep a night．Experts say our sleep becomes poor in our 30s．By the time we reach our 50s, the average person has lost 50 percent of their ability to have a restful sleep．These people also have trouble falling asleep and staying asleep through the night．From middle age on, they say these problems only get worse, and they can influence our health．Signs you may not be getting enough sleep●You're always hungry or you've gained weight．●You have trouble making decisions．●You have trouble remembering things．●Your skin doesn't look good．●You are having trouble seeing．（1）．From the first three paragraphs we know that________．A it is a waste to spend about one﹣third of our lives asleep．B we'll become seriously ill if we don't have enough sleep．C enough sleep does good to infection﹣fighting antibodies．D immune system is protected when people begin to sleep．（2）．From Watson's study，we know________．A People don't need 7 to 8 hours of sleep a night in their fifties．B The less you sleep every night，the more weight you'll lose．C Teenagers should get more than 10hours of sleep a night．D If your memory gets worse，you may not get enough sleep．（3）．What will probably be written in the following part？________A How to improve your sleep．B How important enough sleep is!．C How amazing if you look good!．D How to avoid trouble of seeing．20. "Oh boys, boys, don't throw stones at that poor bird, "said an old gray﹣headed man． "Why, sir, "said a little boy, "she makes such a scream, that we can't bear her．""Yes, but she uses the voice which God gave her．And it is probably as pleasant to her friends as yours is to those who love you．Besides, I am afraid the stone will rebound（弹回）, and hurt you as long as you live!""Rebound!We don't understand you, sir!""Well, come and I will tell you a story．""Is it a true story? ""Yes．Every word is true．""Fifty years ago, I was a boy like you．I used to throw stones, and as I had no other boy very near me to play with, I threw them till I became very accurate（精确的）in my aim．"One day I went to work for an aged couple named Hamilton．They were very kind to everybody and everything．Few people had so many swallows（燕子）making their nests （鸟巢）under houses．Few had so many pets that seemed to love the couple．"For seven years a bird had come．After the long winter, the bird built her nest in the same place and raised her young ones there．She had just returned on the day that I went there to work．"During the day, I thought I would try my skill upon her．She sat upon a stick near her nest, and looked at me trustfully．I found a nice stone and threw it with my best skill．"It shot（击中）the bird on the head, and she dropped dead!"I was sorry as soon as I saw her fall．But the deed was done．All day long her mate flewabout, and was so sad that he made my heart ache．Why had I taken a life so innocent（无辜的）, and hurt the poor mate so deeply?"I said nothing to the old couple about it．But, through a grandchild, they found it out．Though they never said a word to me on the matter, they ________and buried（埋葬）it．I could never look them in the face afterwards．Oh, I had told them how sorry I was!"They have been dead many, many years．But don't you see how that stone reboundedand hit me? How deep it made upon my memory!How deep upon my conscience（良知）! Why, my dear boys, how I want to give a great deal today if I could do something forthat deed!"For fifty years I have carried it in my memory．I have never spoken of it before．Yet if what I have now said shall prevent you from throwing a stone that may rebound and deeply hurt your conscience．I shall be very cheerful．"The boys at once dropped the stones they had in their hands．（1）．The underlined word"mourned the bird"in Paragraph 10mean"________"．A were not willing to throw the bird away．B showed sadness for the loss of the bird．C punished me for the death of the bird．D took care of the bird's family members．（2）．The old gray﹣headed man felt sorry because________．A he had to work for the aged couple．B he shot the bird to death by hernest． C he carried the story in his memory． D he didn't tell the deed to the couple．（3）．We can infer（推断）from the last sentence that________．A the boys ran away and would not come back．B the boys couldn't get nice stonesfrom then on． C the bird now had no more trouble from the boys． D the bird mow would stay in her nest for the rest life．（4）．Which can be the best title for the passage？________A The Stone That Rebounded ．B The Dead Bird．C The Couple Who Complained ．D The Hurt Boy．四、词汇（本题共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）A．请根据括号中的中文提示、英文释义或句意，写出句中所缺单词，使句子通顺．21.

organizations，perhaps the best way to complete certain new projects is to gather a group of people into a team．Having a team of people attack a project offers several advantages．First of all，a group of people have more knowledge，more experience，and more skills in different fields than any single individual（个体）does．A group can work more quickly whenever the task is assigned．And a group can come up with highly creative solutions（解决办法）to problems because of the numbers of people who take part and greater resources they have．Also，a group is more likely to make risky decisions which a single individual might not make．This is because the group spreads responsibility（责任）to all the members．And thus，if the decision turns out to be wrong，no single individual can be held accountable（负有责任的）．Then，taking part in a group can be very rewarding for members of the team．Team members who have a voice in making a decision will no doubt feel better about doing the work than they might do what is imposed（把…强加于）on them by others．Last but not least，the team member has a much better change to"shine"．This is because they get more chances to have his or her contributions and ideas not only recognized（认可），but recognized as highly important．This kind of high﹣recognition is because a team's achievement or influence is much higher than the individual's．A team can finish and achieve what the individual can't do．And a team can reach a height which the individual can't reach．34．How many advantages of a team are mentioned in the passage？A．TwoB．ThreeC．FourD．Five35．The first paragraph mainly tells us that．A．many organizations gather people into teamsB．it is good to form a team to complete tasksC．new projects are often sent to large groupsD．people would like to communicate in groups36．Which of the following is true according to paragraphs 2&3？A．A group of people are sure to be highly creative．B．A team always finish more tasks than individuals．C．It's difficult for a team to make creative decisions．D．The members of a group can share responsibility．37．A team is worth taking part in because．A．individuals do not have rights to make decisionsB．team members have better changes to be excellentC．team members are easily respected by other peopleD．individuals can not achieve goals or reach a height．38．（8分）We spend about one﹣third of our lives asleep．This may should like a lot of time，but it is not wasted．Our bodies need sleep to stay healthy．Not gettingenough sleep can make us sick．Sleep and our immune（免疫）systemThe immune system protects the body from diseases and infections（传染）．Not getting enough sleep hurts this protective system．The Mayo Clinic is a research hospital in the United States．Its website explains that when we sleep our bodies produce proteins（蛋白质）that support sleep and help us fight infections．They add that infection﹣fighting antibodies（抗体）are reduced during periods when you don't get enough sleep．A new study from the University of Washington in the U．S．seems to confirm this．Dr．Nathaniel Watson was the lead writer of the study．Watson says his study shows that the immune system works best when the body gets enough sleep．For the study，Watson and his team studied 11pairs of twins．This is an important difference from other sleep studies．Other research did not study twins．Researchers found that the twin who slept less had a weaker immune system．Watson says his study showed for the first time that a long﹣term lack（缺乏）of sleep shuts down parts of the immune system．He says parts that move white blood cells around the body are influenced．White blood cells fight infections in the body．Watson's study provides more evidence（证据）that sleep is important to"overall health"．And sleep is especially important to immune health．The researchers published their findings in the magazine Sleep．How much sleep is enough？To stay in good health，experts at the Mayo Clinic say that adults should get 7 to 8h ours of sleep．Teenagers need 9 to 10 hours．And school﹣aged children may need more than 10 hours of sleep a night．Experts say our sleep becomes poor in our 30s．By the time we reach our 50s，the average person has lost 50 percent of their ability to have a restful sleep．These people also have trouble falling asleep and staying asleep through the night．From middle age on，they say these problems only get worse，and they can influence our health．Signs you may not be getting enough sleep●You're always hungry or you've gained weight．●You have trouble making decisions．●You have trouble remembering things．●Your skin doesn't look good．●You are having trouble seeing．38．From the first three paragraphs we know that．A．it is a waste to spend about one﹣third of our lives asleepB．we'll become seriously ill if we don't have enough sleepC．enough sleep does good to infection﹣fighting antibodiesD．immune system is protected when people begin to sleep39．From Watson's study，we know．A．enough sleep helps the immune system work wellB．the study of twins is a kind of common sleep studyC．twins need less sleep but have stronger immune systemD．sleeping for a long time is important to immune health40．Which of the following is right according to the passage？A．People don't need 7 to 8 hours of sleep a night in their fifties．B．The less you sleep every night，the more weight you'll lose．C．Teenagers should get more than 10hours of sleep a night．D．If your memory gets worse，you may not get enough sleep．41．What will probably be written in the following part？A．How to improve your sleepB．How important enough sleep is!C．How

（弹回），and hurt you as long as you live!""Rebound!We don't understand you，sir!""Well，come and I will tell you a story．""Isit a true story？""Yes．Every word is true．""Fifty years ago，I was a boy like you．I used to throw stones，and as I had no other boy very near me to play with，I threw them till I became very accurate（精确的）in my aim．"One day I went to work for an aged couple named Hamilton．They were very kind to everybody and everything．Few people had so many swallows（燕子）making their nests（鸟巢）under houses．Few had so many pets that seemed to love the couple．"For seven years a bird had come．After the long winter，the bird built her nest in the same place and raised her young ones there．She had just returned on the day that I went there to work．"During the day，I thought I would try my skill upon her．She sat upon a stick near her nest，and looked at me trustfully．I found a nice stone and threw it with my best skill．"It shot（击中）the bird on the head，and she dropped dead!"I was sorry as soon as I saw her fall．But the deed was done．All day long her mate flew about，and was so sad that he made my heart ache．Why had I taken a life so innocent（无辜的），and hurt the poor mate so deeply？"I said nothing to the old couple about it．But，through a grandchild，they found it out．Though they never said a word to me on the matter，they mourned the bird and buried（埋葬）it．I could never look them in the face afterwards．Oh，I had told them how sorry I was!"They have been dead many，many years．But don't you see how that stone rebounded and hit me？How deep it made upon my memory!How deep upon my conscience（良知）！Why，my dear boys，how I want to give a great deal today if I could do something for that deed!"For fifty years I have carried it in my memory．I have never spoken of it before．Yet if what I have now said shall prevent you from throwing a stone that may rebound and deeply hurt your conscience．I shall be very cheerful．"The boys at once dropped the stones they had in their hands．42．The

comes to online learning．Online learning is a process different from what you will find in a traditional school．The learning environment and methods are different．When studying in a classroom，there is a lot of communication between the studentsand the teacher，but little interaction（互动）among the students，while online learning helps one student and another to interact very seriously and closely．So

good learning habits you should have in online learning？Here are some good suggestions．First，it is a good idea to prepare well for online learning．You can write down daily tasks and even weekly tasks that you want to complete．By doing so，you will have a good plan for achieving your goals．Second，you should spend as much time online as if you were going to regular courses．Also，always try to set
