Sleep is important! 1 Some animals need to sleep for as many as twenty hours a day!
People don’t need to sleep so long, but our sleep is important too. 2
You spend the day learning at school and playing, and at night your body and brain relax, right? Wrong! In fact, when you are sleeping, your body and brain are very busy getting ready for a new day. 3
After a full night of sleep, you wake up in the morning and are ready for a new day of school, interesting activities and family time. 4 By the end of a day, your body is in need of sleep. You are like a car, with your petrol tank (汽油箱) full in the morning, and empty at the end of a day. Your parents have to go to the petrol station when the car is out of petrol.

I was ten when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier desk (收银台) in her general store. 1 I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely.
At first, I was paid in candy. 2 I worked after school, at weekends and during holidays. My father helped me set up a bank account. 3
When I was 12, I did such a good job that I began to sell cosmetics (化妆品). I could look customers directly in the eye. Women would ask, “What colour do you think I should wear?” I translated (翻译) what they wanted into make-up (化妆) ideas. 4
The job taught me a valuable lesson: To be a successful salesperson, you need to listen. 5 Now they are no longer women purchasing cosmetics from me. Instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.
A.Later, I received 50 cents an hour.
B.Before long, she let me sit there by myself.
C.I ended up selling the most cosmetics.
D.Today I still carry that lesson with me: I listen to customers.

After a long week, Sunday is the perfect day to sit down with families, relax and enjoy a special dinner: Sunday roast (周日大餐). 1
British people have eaten Sunday roasts for centuries. In the old days, people had to go to church (教堂) on Sundays. After that, people would be hungry. 2
So what is this tasty? Every Sunday dinner has roast meal, usually chicken or beef, roast potatoes, vegetables, and Yorkshire pudding. 3
What if you don’t have time to make the traditional dinner? Not to worry. In Britain, there are special restaurants, called carveries. 4 The name carvery comes from the act of cutting the meat into small pieces before putting them on a plate.
5 Parents and children will sit down and tell each other about their week at work or school.
With many traditions disappearing, traditional Sunday dinners are as strong as ever. And I have a feeling that this tradition dimmer will be on British tables all the time.
A.There you can eat a Sunday roast.
B.It is becoming popular in other countries now.
C.So families would get together to eat a big meal.
D.This is a pudding made with eggs, milk and sugar.
E.This is a tradition for many British people on Sundays.
F.British people are very busy on traditional Sunday dinners.
G.Besides the tasty food, this meal is also a great time for families.

It’s common to feel scared when we are trying something new. Lots of people feel that way!
Trying new things can be exciting, but it can also be a little scary. To solve the problems, it’s good to first find out why. 1 .
One reason why new things are scary is that we don’t know much about them. Our minds like things we know because they make us feel safe. 2 . We feel scared of being not successful. The third reason is that we worry about what others will think if we try something new and don’t do it well. We might think, “What if I make a mistake in front of my friends?” But you know what? 3 .
So how can we overcome (克服) the fear of trying new things? First, start small. For example, if you’re afraid of public speaking, don’t try to speak in front of lots of people in the very beginning. It’s better to practise speaking in front of fewer people. Second, accept the fear. 4 . Third, don’t care too much about the results. We don’t always get things right for the first time, but mistakes make us learn and grow. Fourth, do something we can control. When we’re scared, we often come up with “what if (要是……会怎么样呢)” questions. Worrying about these things isn’t useful, and we should try to do something we can control. 5 .
A.Here are some reasons.
B.It’s normal to feel afraid of trying new things.
C.Everyone makes mistakes sometimes, and it’s okay!
D.Second, try your best to solve the problems.
E.Ask your parents to help with your problems.
F.Then we can overcome the fear and enjoy trying new things.
G.The second reason is that new things can sometimes bring new problems.

More and more people are interested in labor education (劳动教育) nowadays. 1 As students, doing housework is the best way of labor. But some people think that students only need to study hard and should not spend much time doing housework. 2 Here are my reasons.
3 This is because what the school teaches is not only knowledge, but also how to adapt to society (适应社会). The same is true for the family. Doing housework shows duty towards the family.
Second, doing housework can help us become hard-working and help you learn some labor skills. In the future, these will be helpful to us.
Finally, studying at school is to learn the skills we will need in the future. 4 No one wants to be useless (无用的) in the society.
President Xi Jinping once said, “The people’s life lies in hard work, and hard work brings prosperity (繁荣).” The same is true for students. 5
A.We should help parents to do the housework.
B.First, teachers often ask students to clean the classroom at school.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Most people enjoy listening to music. But if you ask your classmates what kind of music they like, you may get many different answers. 1 What do these differences say about people?
Researchers from the University of Cambridge tried to answer the questions. They surveyed 350, 000 people from 50 different countries. 2
One result shows that outgoing people prefer rhythmic music and danceable music. People who enjoy country music are shown to be more serious about their work. 3 The researchers predicted (预测) that people who were under too much stress should like either sad music to express their feelings or rhythmic music to improve their moods. But in fact, these people liked neither of the two types of music above. 4 Perhaps this type of music helps reduce their stress.
The researchers also found that climates might influence people’s musical preferences (偏爱) and personalities. People in warmer climates prefer danceable music. They are more outgoing. This maybe because of longer daylight hours and warmer evenings.
Of course, nothing is clear-cut (肯定的). 5 The Cambridge study shows us that people of different cultures are more similar than we think.
“People may be divided by geography, language and culture,” said Dr. David Greenberg, the leading researcher. “But if an outgoing person in one part of the world likes the same music as outgoing people elsewhere, then we can say that music is really like a powerful bridge.”
A.Do you enjoy listening to music?
B.In fact, they prefer loud and powerful music.
C.Too much stress puts people in a bad mood.
D.We may not group people just by their musical tastes.
E.Then, they discovered some connections between musical preferences and personality.
F.Why do different people have different musical preferences?
G.Another result is quite interesting.

British people have eaten Sunday roasts for centuries. In the old days, people had to go to church (教堂) on Sundays. After that, people would be hungry. 2
So what is this tasty? Every Sunday dinner has roast meal, usually chicken or beef, roast potatoes, vegetables, and Yorkshire pudding. 3
What if you don’t have time to make the traditional dinner? Not to worry. In Britain, there are special restaurants, called carveries. 4 The name carvery comes from the act of cutting the meat into small pieces before putting them on a plate.
5 Parents and children will sit down and tell each other about their week at work or school.
With many traditions disappearing, traditional Sunday dinners are as strong as ever. And I have a feeling that this tradition dimmer will be on British tables all the time.
A.There you can eat a Sunday roast.
B.It is becoming popular in other countries now.
C.So families would get together to eat a big meal.
D.This is a pudding made with eggs, milk and sugar.
E.This is a tradition for many British people on Sundays.
F.British people are very busy on traditional Sunday dinners.

It’s common to feel scared when we are trying something new. Lots of people feel that way!
Trying new things can be exciting, but it can also be a little scary. To solve the problems, it’s good to first find out why. 1 .
One reason why new things are scary is that we don’t know much about them. Our minds like things we know because they make us feel safe. 2 . We feel scared of being not successful. The third reason is that we worry about what others will think if we try something new and don’t do it well. We might think, “What if I make a mistake in front of my friends?” But you know what? 3 .
So how can we overcome (克服) the fear of trying new things? First, start small. For example, if you’re afraid of public speaking, don’t try to speak in front of lots of people in the very beginning. It’s better to practise speaking in front of fewer people. Second, accept the fear. 4 . Third, don’t care too much about the results. We don’t always get things right for the first time, but mistakes make us learn and grow. Fourth, do something we can control. When we’re scared, we often come up with “what if (要是……会怎么样呢)” questions. Worrying about these things isn’t useful, and we should try to do something we can control. 5 .
A.Here are some reasons.
B.It’s normal to feel afraid of trying new things.
C.Everyone makes mistakes sometimes, and it’s okay!
D.Second, try your best to solve the problems.
E.Ask your parents to help with your problems.
F.Then we can overcome the fear and enjoy trying new things.
G.The second reason is that new things can sometimes bring new problems.

More and more people are interested in labor education (劳动教育) nowadays. 1 As students, doing housework is the best way of labor. But some people think that students only need to study hard and should not spend much time doing housework. 2 Here are my reasons.

Finally, studying at school is to learn the skills we will need in the future. 4 No one wants to be useless (无用的) in the society.

Most people enjoy listening to music. But if you ask your classmates what kind of music they like, you may get many different answers. 1 What do these differences say about people?
Researchers from the University of Cambridge tried to answer the questions. They surveyed 350, 000 people from 50 different countries. 2
One result shows that outgoing people prefer rhythmic music and danceable music. People who enjoy country music are shown to be more serious about their work. 3 The researchers predicted (预测) that people who were under too much stress should like either sad music to express their feelings or rhythmic music to improve their moods. But in fact, these people liked neither of the two types of music above. 4 Perhaps this type of music helps reduce their stress.
The researchers also found that climates might influence people’s musical preferences (偏爱) and personalities. People in warmer climates prefer danceable music. They are more outgoing. This maybe because of longer daylight hours and warmer evenings.
Of course, nothing is clear-cut (肯定的). 5 The Cambridge study shows us that people of different cultures are more similar than we think.
“People may be divided by geography, language and culture,” said Dr. David Greenberg, the leading researcher. “But if an outgoing person in one part of the world likes the same music as outgoing people elsewhere, then we can say that music is really like a powerful bridge.”
A.Do you enjoy listening to music?
B.In fact, they prefer loud and powerful music.
C.Too much stress puts people in a bad mood.
D.We may not group people just by their musical tastes.
E.Then, they discovered some connections between musical preferences and personality.
F.Why do different people have different musical preferences?
G.Another result is quite interesting.
