Everybody knows that cats like to sleep. They spend more than half their lives sleeping and enjoy every minute of it. Other animals have different sleeping habits, however. Horses may not look like they are asleep. But they are! Horses spend about six hours sleeping every day and they do it standing up!
Fish also sleep every day but they have a strange (奇怪的) habit. They don’t close their eyes when they are sleeping. When ducks sleep they keep one eye open and half of the brain awake. It helps them stay alert (警觉的) and watch out for dangerous animals.
So what about humans (人类)? Well, most people sleep for about a third of their lives. The number of hours you sleep, however, has to do with your age. Most newborn (新生的) babies sleep a lot. They spend about 75% of their time sleeping every day! As you get older, you need less sleep. Children need about eleven hours and adults sleep for eight hours every night.
So, yes, you spend many hours a year doing nothing—sleeping in bed!
But you’re not just asleep—you’re not really doing nothing. Your body and your mind relax during this time, but a lot of things happen during sleep. Dreams are one way that the mind relaxes after a busy day. A person spends about 20% of every night dreaming. That means you have about four or five dreams every night or about 1,600 dreams a year.
19. From the passage we know that a horse ________.
A. sleeps with one eye open B. spends half of its life sleeping
C. keeps standing up when sleeping D. doesn’t close its eyes when sleeping
20. According to the passage, how long do most new born babies sleep one day?
A. For about 12 hours. B. For about 14 hours.
C. For about 16 hours. D. For about 18 hours.
21. Which animal sleeps with one eye open and half of the brain awake?
A. B. C. D.
22. Where does the passage probably come from?
A An art book. B. A science book. C. A sports book. D. A history book.
D
Cartoons are quite popular with children. They play an important role in their life. Why?
First of all, cartoons are funny. Most people do not want to be bored, especially children. Children always want to do something fun. Children can’t focus (专注) on the things that are hard to do. But, if they watch cartoons, all the children can almost watch them until the end.
Another reason is that children can learn many things from cartoons easily. Some children hate boring knowledge in books. But cartoons are different. They can make children learn a lot with fun. For example, the cartoon SpongeBob SquarePants tells children a lot about the sea.
The last reason is that cartoons are fantastical. Sometimes, everybody wants to escape (逃离) from the real world. They think that their dreams are coming true by watching cartoons. So, many boys like watching Superman because they always imagine they can fly. Or they would like to be a “Spider-Man” to save people in danger.
Cartoons are important to children. It will be better if there are more educational (有教育意义的) cartoons for children.
23. Which cartoon can help children know about the sea?
A. Superman B. Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck
C. Spider-Man D. SpongeBob SquarePants
24. What does the underlined word “fantastical” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Unreal. B. Awful. C. Serious. D. Traditional.
25. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
26. What can we get from the passage?
A. Children only like watching cartoons.
B. Parents should not stop children from watching cartoons.

Another reason is that children can learn many things from cartoons easily. Some children hate boring knowledge in books. But cartoons are different. They can make children learn a lot with fun. For example, the cartoon SpongeBob SquarePants tells children a lot about the sea.
The last reason is that cartoons are fantastical. Sometimes, everybody wants to escape (逃离) from the real world. They think that their dreams are coming true by watching cartoons. So, many boys like watching Superman because they always imagine they can fly. Or they would like to be a “Spider-Man” to save people in danger.
Cartoons are important to children. It will be better if there are more educational (有教育意义的) cartoons for children.
23. Which cartoon can help children know about the sea?
A Superman B. Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck
C. Spider-Man D. SpongeBob SquarePants
24. What does the underlined word “fantastical” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Unreal. B. Awful. C. Serious. D. Traditional.
25. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
26. What can we get from the passage?
A. Children only like watching cartoons.
B. Parents should not stop children from watching cartoons.
C. People should make more educational cartoons for children.
D. Children should watch more cartoons to improve themselves.
【答案】23. D 24. A 25. A 26. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了孩子们喜欢看动画片的原因。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“For example, the cartoon SpongeBob SquarePants tells children a lot about the sea. ”可知,《海绵宝宝》给孩子们讲述了很多关于大海的故事。故选D。
【24题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“Sometimes, everybody wants to escape (逃离) from the real world. They think that their dreams are coming true by watching cartoons. ”可知,有时候,每个人都想逃离现实世界。他们认为他们的梦想是通过看动画片来实现的,这些梦想都是天马行空的,故划线单词“fantastical”意为“不真实的”,与选项Unreal意思相近。故选A。
【25题详解】
篇章结构题。文章第一段介绍动画片很受孩子们的喜爱;第二段、第三段和第四段分别讲述了孩子们喜欢动画片的原因;最后一段总结动画片对孩子们很重要,与选项A的示意图对应。故选A。
26题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Cartoons are important to children. It will be better if there are more educational (有教育意义的) cartoons for children.”可知,应多制作有教育意义的卡通。故选C。

In the universe, as we all know, there is the sun, the moon, the earth and many stars.
Through our geography lessons, we know the earth goes around the sun and the moon goes around the earth. We have day and night because the earth keeps turning all the time. ____27____ When our part of the earth turns away from the sun, it is night.
Just because the moon is closer to the earth than the sun, it looks much bigger than the sun. ____28____ And small things will also look bigger when they are nearer.
The sun is big enough to give out very strong light. ____29____ Why? In fact, the light from the moon comes from the sun. The moon looks much bigger and brighter than the stars. But actually (事实) the stars are much bigger and brighter than the moon. They look smaller than the moon also because they are farther away from the earth.
____30____ But of all the planets, only on the earth there are living things and people can only live on the earth, too.
A. There are many other planets in the universe.
B. Big things will look smaller when they are farther.
C. The moon can’t give any light at all, but it looks quite bright, too.
D. When our part of the earth turns to the sun, it is day.
E. Astronauts have already been to the moon.
【答案】27. D 28. B 29. C 30. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了宇宙、地球、太阳和月亮的基本知识。
【27题详解】
根据前一句“We have day and night because the earth keeps turning all the time.”及后一句“When our part of the earth turns away from the sun, it is night.”可知,前一句解释“地球自转导致白天和黑夜”,后一句描述“当地球某部分背离太阳时是夜晚”。选项D“当地球我们这部分转向太阳时,是白天”正好与后句形成对比,完整描述了自转如何引起昼夜交替。故选D。
【28题详解】
根据前一句“Just because the moon is closer to the earth than the sun, it looks much bigger than the sun.”及后一句“And small things will also look bigger when they are nearer.”可知,前一句说明“月亮离地球近,所以看起来比太阳大”,后一句举例“小东西离得近时显得更大”。选项B“大的东西在更远时看起来更小”进一步补充了远近对物体外观大小的影响原理,与前文内容一致。故选B。
【29题详解】
根据前一句“The sun is big enough to give out very strong light.”及后一句“Why?”可知,前一句说“太阳发出强光”,后一句以“为什么”开头,解释月亮的光来自太阳。选项C“月亮根本不能发光,但它看起来也很亮”直接回答了“为什么”,解释了月亮不发光却显得亮的原理,与后文“月亮的光来自太阳”完美衔接。故选C。
【30题详解】
根据前一句“They look smaller than the moon also because they are farther away from the earth.”及后一句“But of all the planets, only on the earth there are living things and people can only live on the earth, too.”可知,前文讨论星星离得远所以显小,后句转折说“但在所有行星中,只有地球有生物”。选项A“宇宙中有许多其他行星”作为铺垫,引出后文“行星”话题,符合语境。故选A。
