When I was a kid, my brothers, sisters and I used to have ice cream for dessert. Every day, we would choose which ice cream flavor (风味) to have. Then we would happily eat our ice cream as fast as we could.
Once when I was about 10 or 11, our grandpa came to visit us. Grandpa always had a different view on things. At that time, my sister and I were making bets (打赌) on who could finish our own ice cream first. With a smile, Grandpa said, “Why would you like to finish first? If you eat slowly, the pleasure will last longer. You should have a competition to see who can finish last.” Even now, I always try to taste my ice cream slowly, but of course this is about more than just dessert.
Too often, kids want to get something more, whether more ice cream, more toys, or more friends. We still keep this habit until we grow up. We never develop the skill of treasuring what we have. If we realize this and change the habit, we will have a happier life.
What my grandpa said that day taught me a lot. If you take the chance to enjoy what’s in front of you, the pleasure will last longer. I think the lesson has made my life happier as well. These days, when I want something, I wait as long as I can before having it. Then, when I finally get it, I will treasure it as long as possible. Because I know that no matter what it is, it will be gone one day.

How was your sleep last night? Sleep is important for health. How can we have healthy sleep? Take a look at some advice.
Wake up naturally. Waking up to a ringing alarm is never fun. Studies show that when you get shocked by the alarm, your breathing will go up, your heart will have more beats and your blood pressure will rise.
“This is a very unhappy way to start the day,” sleep scientist Whitney Roban said. “You’ll feel worse if you go back to sleep a few more minutes. It’s important to follow your body’s natural sleep-wake cycle (循环).”
So what should we do? Try to use. an alarm with softer and lower sounds. Or leave a crack (缝隙) in the curtains (窗帘) — the rising sun will wake you up.
Sleep early and get up early Some young people may go to bed late and get up late such as sleeping from 2 am to 10 am. They think as long as they have eight hours of sleep, everything will be fine.
But in fact, our bodies can tell time. They use light and temperature to do so. If we wake up too late, our bodies might feel stuck between sleep and being awake. That’s why sometimes we feel even more tired after oversleeping.
41. According to studies, what will happen to your body if an alarm wakes you up suddenly?
A. Your heart will beat faster. B. You may breathe more slowly.
C. Your body temperature will go up. D. You will have lower blood pressure
42. Which of the following does Whitney Roban agree with?
A. Trying to use an alarm with louder sounds. B. Going back to sleep again after waking up.
C. Reading magazines online before going to bed. D. Following the body’s natural sleep-wake cycle.
43. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. It is necessary for people to oversleep. B. Heavy work can lead to oversleeping.
C. It is hard to change people’s sleeping habits. D. Oversleeping sometimes makes us more tired.
44 What is the passage mainly about?
A. Why people need to sleep. B. Why people have sleeping problems.
C. How to have healthy sleep. D. How to wake up in a natural way.
【答案】41. A 42. D 43. D 44. C
【解析】

【42题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“It’s important to follow your body’s natural sleep-wake cycle (循环).( 遵循你身体的自然睡眠-觉醒周期是很重要的)”可知,惠特尼·罗宾认为应该遵循身体自然的睡眠-觉醒周期。故选D。

Nowadays, the doctor has been asking people to take in less salt. New electric chopsticks in Japan may make it possible to make food taste saltier than it really is.
Miyashita, a professor at Meiji University, worked with Kirin Holdings Company to develop the special chopsticks.
The chopsticks come with a small computer. When you wear the computer on your arm, it can produce a weak electric current (电流) to free up the sodium ions (钠离子) in your food. As a result, you get a salty taste without the use of salt.
The purpose to create the chopsticks is to stop the Japanese from taking in too much salt. The traditional Japanese food includes a lot of salt. A Japanese adult eats about 10g of salt every day. The daily amount of salt, however, should be kept at around 5g. High salt intake can cause many illnesses, including high blood pressure and strokes (中风).
Miyashita and Kirin will continue to improve their electric chopsticks. They hope to be able to start selling the chopsticks in a short time.
45. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. How much the chopsticks cost. B. What is put into the chopsticks.
C. How the chopsticks make food salty. D. When we should use the chopsticks.
46. Why does Miyashita’s team produce the chopsticks?
A. To stop the Japanese from taking in more salt.
B. To have a good invention for the world.
C. To change the use of traditional chopsticks.
D. To help treat the people with high blood pressure.
47. What can we infer (推断) from the last paragraph?
A. The chopsticks have already been widely used .
B. The chopsticks will sell well in the future.
C. The chopsticks are still under development.
D. The chopsticks can make Miyashita richer.
48. What is the theme of the passage?
A. Culture. B. Traffic.
C. Hobby. D. Invention.
【答案】45. C 46. A 47. C 48. D

Glass frogs are not actually made of glass. But their skin is transparent (透明的), just like glass. In fact, the skin on the underside of a glass frog is so clear that you can see what is inside its body. Without using an X-ray machine, you can see the glass frog’s heart and other organs.
The glass frog usually lives high in the trees above rivers. These unusual-looking glass frogs can be difficult to discover in the rainforest, because the clear skin on their fronts and the light green color of their backs often blend in (融入) with the leaves they rest on. Also, they are tiny — just about the size of a coin.
These frogs make up for their small size with an interesting way of catching insects. Scientists believe the glass frog’s back looks like the frog’s eggs. If a fly (苍蝇) flies down for a meal on the frog’s back, it will be caught unexpectedly when the glass frog opens its mouth.
The glass frog’s eggs are protected by the male (雄性的) glass frogs. Male glass frogs are very protective of their eggs. To protect the eggs, a male glass frog will try to scare away any other male frog that gets too close. At first, the male glass frog makes loud noises to warn the other male frog to leave his area. If that does not work, then the glass frogs may fight with each other until one gives up and leaves. These fights can last for thirty minutes.
49. Choose the best sentence to fill in the blank “________” in Paragraph 1.
A. You can’t see anything without light.
B. I don’t like glass frogs because they are too big.
C. You can see the glass frog at any place.
D. Sometimes you can even see blood or food moving through its body.
50. What are the reasons why it is hard to discover the glass frogs in the rainforest?
① They blend in with the leaves they rest on. ②They are very tiny.
③They move fast. ④They seldom make noises.
A. ①② B. ②③ C. ③④ D. ①④
51. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. Where the glass frogs live. B. What size the glass frog is.
C. How the male frogs protect themselves. D. How the eggs of glass frogs are protected.
52. What’s the theme of the passage?
A. Culture B. Language C. Nature D. History
【答案】49. D 50. A 51. D 52. C

【51题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“The glass frog’s eggs are protected by the male (雄性的) glass frogs. Male glass frogs are very protective of their eggs.

When I was a kid, my brothers, sisters and I used to have ice cream for dessert. Every day, we would choose which ice cream flavor (风味) to have. Then we would happily eat our ice cream as fast as we could.
Once when I was about 10 or 11, our grandpa came to visit us. Grandpa always had a different view on things. At that time, my sister and I were making bets (打赌) on who could finish our own ice cream first. With a smile, Grandpa said, “Why would you like to finish first? If you eat slowly, the pleasure will last longer. You should have a competition to see who can finish last.” Even now, I always try to taste my ice cream slowly, but of course this is about more than just dessert.
Too often kids want to get something more, whether more ice cream, more toys, or more friends. We still keep this habit until we grow up. We never develop the skill of treasuring what we have. If we realize this and change the habit, we will have a happier life.
What my grandpa said that day taught me a lot. If you take the chance to enjoy what’s in front of you, the pleasure will last longer. I think the lesson has made my life happier as well. These days, when I want something, I wait as long as I can before having it. Then, when I finally get it, I will treasure it as long as possible. Because I know that no matter what it is, it will be gone one day.
38. What is the correct order according to the passage?
a Grandpa gave us advice.
b. Our grandpa came to visit us.
c. What my grandpa said that day taught me a lot.
d. Every day, we would choose which ice cream flavor to have.

A. c-a-d-b-e B. d-b-a-c-e C. d-b-e-a-c D. a-d-b-c-e
39. What can we know from the last paragraph?
A. The writer learns a lot from her grandfather’s advice.
B. The writer knows how to get the chance to be happy.
C. The writer knows nothing will be gone one day.
D. The writer longs for the days when they ate ice cream.
40. What is the best title for the text?
A. Save for the Future B. Value What You Have
C. Keep Longing for More D. Remember My Grandpa

How was your sleep last night? Sleep is important for health. How can we have healthy sleep? Take a look at some advice.
Wake up naturally. Waking up to a ringing alarm is never fun. Studies show that when you get shocked by the alarm, your breathing will go up, your heart will have more beats and your blood pressure will rise.
“This is a very unhappy way to start the day,” sleep scientist Whitney Roban said. “You’ll feel worse if you go back to sleep a few more minutes. It’s important to follow your body’s natural sleep-wake cycle (循环).”

Nowadays, the doctor has been asking people to take in less salt. New electric chopsticks in Japan may make it possible to make food taste saltier than it really is.
Miyashita, a professor at Meiji University, worked with Kirin Holdings Company to develop the special chopsticks.
The chopsticks come with a small computer. When you wear the computer on your arm, it can produce a weak electric current (电流) to free up the sodium ions (钠离子) in your food. As a result, you get a salty taste without the use of salt.
The purpose to create the chopsticks is to stop the Japanese from taking in too much salt. The traditional Japanese food includes a lot of salt. A Japanese adult eats about 10g of salt every day. The daily amount of salt, however, should be kept at around 5g. High salt intake can cause many illnesses, including high blood pressure and strokes (中风).
Miyashita and Kirin will continue to improve their electric chopsticks. They hope to be able to start selling the chopsticks in a short time.

A. How much the chopsticks cost. B. What is put into the chopsticks.
C. How the chopsticks make food salty. D. When we should use the chopsticks.

Glass frogs are not actually made of glass. But their skin is transparent (透明的), just like glass. In fact, the skin on the underside of a glass frog is so clear that you can see what is inside its body. Without using an X-ray machine, you can see the glass frog’s heart and other organs.
The glass frog usually lives high in the trees above rivers. These unusual-looking glass frogs can be difficult to discover in the rainforest, because the clear skin on their fronts and the light green color of their backs often blend in (融入) with the leaves they rest on. Also, they are tiny — just about the size of a coin.
These frogs make up for their small size with an interesting way of catching insects. Scientists believe the glass frog’s back looks like the frog’s eggs. If a fly (苍蝇) flies down for a meal on the frog’s back, it will be caught unexpectedly when the glass frog opens its mouth.
The glass frog’s eggs are protected by the male (雄性的) glass frogs. Male glass frogs are very protective of their eggs. To protect the eggs, a male glass frog will try to scare away any other male frog that gets too close. At first, the male glass frog makes loud noises to warn the other male frog to leave his area. If that does not work, then the glass frogs may fight with each other until one gives up and leaves. These fights can last for thirty minutes.
