Among them, the Rongchang folding fan, which is from Chongqing’s Rongchang District, is one of the most famous. In 2008, it was listed as a National Intangible Cultural Heritage. ②The history of Rongchang folding fans dates back to the Ming Dynasty. At that time, Rongchang became a centre for handmade fan production because of its high-quality bamboo and skilled workers. Over time, the fans have become well-known for being strong and beautiful. ③Creating a Rongchang folding fan is a highly skilled process. ④Making each fan requires over 70 steps, including cutting and painting. Workers usually spend years learning these skills to make sure the fans meet high standards (标准). ⑤During the process, one of the most important parts is to choose the material. Workers need to use thin but strong bamboo, making fans easy to carry. At the same time, the material makes Rongchang folding fans special. ⑥As dynasties rose and fell, the Rongchang folding fan continually reinvented its cultural role. From being a tool to a cultural symbol, it shows that true craftsmanship not only serves practical needs, but also carries cultural meaning. ⑦In ancient China, many of Rongchang folding fans were hand-painted with traditional Chinese calligraphy (书法) or paintings, turning each one into a piece of art. Poets wrote poems on them, and performers used them in traditional dances and operas. ⑧Though fewer people need hand-held fans nowadays, Rongchang folding fans are popular among collectors and are often given as cultural gifts. Old workers are not only training the next generation but also exploring creative designs to attract more young people. Rongchang folding fans have become a living art form that continues to spread to more people. 1. What makes Rongchang folding fans special? A. Their large size and heavy weight. B. Their thin but strong bamboo. C. Their modern and creative designs. D. Their famous and beautiful paintings. 2. What does the writer think of the future of Rongchang folding fans? A. Hopeful. B.

She kissed her daughter one by one and said, “Keep busy, my dears, and never lose hope!” “Yes, Mother.” “Meg, look after your sisters. If you need help, ask Hannah or Mr Laurence. Jo, be patient and cheerful, and write to me often. Beth and Amy, help with the housework and be obedient (顺从的).” “Yes, Mother! Don’t worry!” She got into the carriage and opened the window. “Goodbye, my dears!” she called as it drove away. The girls waved their hands cheerfully until the carriage turned the corner. Then, with sad faces and heavy hearts, they went back inside. “The house seems very empty now,” said Meg. “Our motto (座右铭) is ‘Hope and keep busy’”, said Jo brightly. She was trying to forget how sad she was feeling. “So I’m going to go and see Aunt March. What about you, Meg?” “I’m going to teach the King children.” replied Meg. “And Amy and I are going to help Hannah with the housework.” said Beth. “I think anxiety (焦虑) is very interesting.” Amy said seriously. Her words made her sisters laugh, and they all started to feel a little better. For a week the girls kept to their motto and worked hard. Then Jo got a bad cold, and had to stay at home. She didn’t mind this at all because she didn’t like going to Aunt March’s. She was happy to lie on the sofa all day with her books and medicine. Amy got bored with doing housework so she took out her pencils and drawing book again. Meg went to teach the King children every day, and sewed. She spent the rest of her time writing long letters to her mother and reading the letters from Mr Brooke. Only Beth continued to look after the house. She did her own jobs and her sister’s jobs, too.

Many people have felt the same thing. In fact, these muscle twitches (肌肉抽搐) in the arms, legs or other parts of the body are called hypnic jerks (睡眠抽动). And they are very common. Up to 70 percent of people experience them sometimes, Huffington Post reported. But what causes it? There are some theories. Some scientists believe that the feeling of falling comes from the body relaxing itself, especially if the person is anxious or unable to get comfortable. As you are about to sleep, your muscles become relaxed. But your brain stays awake. It misunderstands the relaxing of your muscles as a sign that you're falling. Then the brain jerks the body awake as if it’s trying to protect you. Other scientists believe that different phases of sleep might cause the hypnic jerks. When we sleep, we experience two phases: non-rapid eye movement (NREM) and rapid eye movement (REM). During REM, our heart rate, breathing and nervous system can act irregularly (不规律地). If the body experiences flashes of REM while entering sleep, these irregularities could cause twitches. If you don’t want to experience hypnic jerks, scientists have some suggestions. When you become deeply relaxed, you can learn how to reconnect slowly by moving your fingers and toes a little bit. Then start to move your head and open your eyes, while being aware of yourself as you get out of the relaxed state. But experts agree that hypnic jerks, though sometimes scary, are harmless. If it wakes you up, simply roll over and go back to sleep. But keep in mind: a caffeinated (含咖啡因的) drink, exciting evening activities or stress may make hypnic jerks happen more often. 1. What does the third paragraph mainly tells us? A. The difference between REM and NREM. B. The feeling of falling comes from the body relaxing itself. C. The bad influence of REM. D. The different stages of sleep that lead to hypnic jerks. 2. According to the passage, which of the following statement is true? A. At least 70 percent of people experience hypnic jerks. B. Experts agree that Hypnic jerks are scary and harmful. C. Our heart rate acts irregularly during REM. D. You can reconnect by moving fingers, toes and then open your eyes at once. 3. Which of the following cannot make hypnic jerks happen more often? A. Drinking coffee. B. Playing basketball for a long time. C. Reading a book quietly. D. Having too much pressure. 4. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 5. What is the best title for the passage? A. How to Experience Hypnic Jerks B. What Causes Hypnic Jerks C. Feelings of Falling While Going to Sleep D. Sleeping Is Good for Our Health 【答案】DCCDC 【解析】 1. 题干意思：第3段主要告诉我们什么？A. 快速眼动和非快速眼动的区别；B. 下落的感觉来自身体放松；C. 快速眼动的不良影响；D. 导致睡眠抽动的不同睡眠阶段。根据第3段“Other scientists believe that different phases of sleep might cause the hypnic jerks. When we sleep, we experience two phases: non-rapid eye movement (NREM) and rapid eye movement (REM). During REM, our heart rate, breathing and nervous system can act irregularly. If the body experiences flashes of REM while entering sleep, these irregularities could cause twitches.（其他科学家认为，不同的睡眠阶段可能会导致睡眠抽动。当我们睡觉时，我们会经历两个阶段：非快速眼动（NREM）和快速眼动（REM）。在快速眼动期间，我们的心率、呼吸和神经系统会不规律地活动。如果身体在进入睡眠时经历了快速眼动，这些不规律可能会导致抽动。）”可知，本段讨论的是不同的睡眠阶段（REM和NREM）会导致睡眠抽动，故选D。 2. 题干意思：根据短文，下列哪个陈述是正确的？至少有70%的人经历过睡眠抽动；B. 专家们一致认为睡眠抽动是可怕和有害的；C. 在快速眼动期间，我们的心率不规律；D. 你可以通过移动手指和脚趾来重新连接，然后马上睁开眼睛。根据第3段“During REM, our heart rate, breathing and nervous system can act irregularly.（在快速眼动期间，我们的心率、呼吸和神经系统会不规律地活动。）”可知，在快速眼动（REM）期间，我们的心率不规律，C选项正确。故选C。 3. 题干意思：以下哪项不能使睡眠抽动更频繁地发生？A. 喝咖啡；B. 打了很长时间的篮球；C. 安静地看书；D. 压力太大。根据最后一段“But keep in mind: a caffeinated (含咖啡因的) drink, exciting evening activities or stress may make hypnic jerks happen more often.（但请记住：含咖啡因的饮料、令人兴奋的晚上活动或压力都可能使睡眠抽动更频繁地发生。）”可知，A、B、D选项都可能导致抽动。而阅读书籍属于安静活动，故C选项不会导致抽动，故选C。 4. 题干意思：下面哪个选项显示了文章的结构？本文第1段引入问题，第2-3段解释成因，第4段提供建议，第5段总结入睡抽动的无害性，结合选项，最符合文章结构为D选项，故选D。 5. 题干意思：这篇文章最好的标题是什么？A. 如何体验睡眠抽动；B. 引起睡眠抽动的原因；C. 睡眠时坠落感；D. 睡眠对我们的健康有益。本文主要讲的是人睡眠的时候有可能感觉到身体下坠，并就此给出了理论解释，同时也分析了产生该现象的原因，并给出了建议。故答案是：C。 四、根据首字母、所给汉语注释或英文释义，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式。 1.

Jane Goodall was born on April 3, 1934, in London, England. When she was a little girl, she loved animals very much. Once, she even stayed in a hen house for hours just to watch how a hen laid an egg. Her parents were happy to see her love for nature and gave her a toy chimpanzee named Jubilee. This toy made Jane dream of working with animals one day. When Jane grew up, she went to Africa to study chimpanzees. At first, the chimpanzees were scared of her. They ran away when they saw her. But Jane didn’t give up. She sat quietly in the forest every day, watching them from far away. Slowly, the chimpanzees came close to her. She even gave them names like David and Goliath. Jane found many amazing things about chimpanzees. She saw that they used sticks to get insects to eat. Before that, people thought only humans could use tools. She also saw that chimpanzees loved their families. Mothers took good care of their babies, and chimpanzees played together like children. Later, Jane wanted to tell the world about chimpanzees. She wrote books and gave talks. She wanted people to know that chimpanzees are smart and need our help. Many forests where chimpanzees lived were cut down. Jane started groups to protect these forests and chimpanzees. Even when Jane was over 90 years old, she still worked hard for animals. She traveled around the world, telling kids to love nature. She said, “Every individual (个体) matters. Every individual has a role to play.” Jane Goodall’s love for animals teaches us to care for our planet. 1.
