Then, drop it from the roof of your school. Have you ever done this before? It's a classic science experiment called the egg drop challenge. Every year, many students around the world do it. The goal is to keep the eggs from breaking. But as many students quickly learn, that's easier said than done. Once the eggs break, teachers explain the physics behind the experiment. One popular conclusion is that eggs sitting straight are less likely to break than eggs sitting horizontally(水平地). But is it true? Tal Cohen is a professor. After running the egg drop challenge for years, she began to wonder if she told students the right story. To find out, she and her team bought more than 200 eggs and took them into the lab. In their experiments, the researchers found that eggs that landed on their sides were actually less likely to break. This is because the shell on an egg's sides is harder than that on its ends. When a dropped egg hits the ground on its side, the shell can soak up some of the blow. “It's just like the human body,” explained one of the researchers. “Imagine you are falling from a height. If you land with your legs straight, you'll break your bones. You'll want to bend your knees, and that's what the egg is doing.” Cohen's findings remind us that not everything is true. For this reason, we should keep an open mind and never be afraid to “break” some common wisdom. ADCB ( ) 12．What can we infer from the passage about the traditional conclusion that “eggs sitting straight are less likely to break”? A．It is completely wrong. B．The new research supports it. C．It's based on many experiments. D．All students accept it. ( ) 13．Why did Tal Cohen and her team do the experiment? A．To make students interested in physics. B．To find out why eggs break easily. C．To show how to wrap eggs properly. D．To test if the traditional conclusion was correct. ( ) 14．What is the writer's purpose in writing this passage? A．To introduce a classic science experiment. B．To explain the physics behind the egg drop challenge. C．To tell us not to believe common wisdom blindly. D．To show the process of scientific research. ( ) 15．What is the main idea of the passage? A．How to keep eggs from breaking in the egg drop challenge. B．A new finding about the egg drop challenge and its lesson. C．The difference between eggs landing on their sides and on their ends. D．The process of Tal Cohen's egg experiment. 三、任务型阅读（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） We easily feel stressed when we get more work to do. It's important to know how to solve problems and find ways to relax. First, we should try organizing our work from the most important to the least important as well as the most urgent(紧急的) to the least urgent. 1.___________ As soon as those are done, work on things that are important but not urgent. Then, do things that are less important and less urgent. This makes us know what to do first and not worry about the rest. Still, sometimes we feel stressed even after organizing our work. That's okay. 2.___________ Because exercise helps a lot in forgetting about our problems. It doesn't even have to be a big trip to the gym, although that surely helps. It could be something as small as walking around the neighbourhood for 10 to 20 minutes. Finally, we can try meditation (冥想). 3.___________ Just set aside 10 to 20 minutes with an alarm clock, sit straight, close our eyes, and focus only on breathing. If other thoughts come up, accept that they are there and let them fly away on their own. 4.___________ By trying these steps, we will certainly feel peaceful when finishing all of the work. ECAD A．How can we do that? B．It is not easy to get work organized. C．Try to add some exercise into our weekly plan. D．Both our body and mind can get relaxed this way. E．If some problems are both important and urgent, do those things first. 5．Which way is the best for you to get relaxed? Why?

There are so many benefits(好处) to read books. Reading is a good way to deal with stress. In one study, reading was found to be effective in reducing stress. When you are reading books, you can keep the noisy world out and needn't worry about the problems that bother you. This means that reading can help you feel relaxed. Reading protects brain health. If you read at least once a week, you probably have a better ability in understanding at an old age than those who do not. Because when you are reading,you actually keep thinking even imagining. And that is a good exercise for your mind. Reading is an excellent bedtime activity. On one hand, reading before bed can help you fall asleep in a shorter time. On the other hand, it is better for your eyes to hold a book while going to bed instead of your mobile phone. All in all, there is no doubt that reading is good for you. Why not pick up a book to read right now? ( ) 1．What does the underlined word “bother” in Paragraph 2 mean?

But during the summer break, they found it hard to keep running. Luis wanted to make training fun. So he took his team to a local animal shelter. They took the dogs in the shelter out for a run. Luis took a video of the run. That night, he put the video online.The next day, many people watched it."It just went out of control in a good way,” said Luis. Other schools soon picked up on the idea. Kids at Steinbrenner High School in Florida also run with dogs in the shelter now. They go to the park to run laps and play. Regan works at the animal shelter near Steinbrenner. She thinks dogs in the shelter need to spend time with people. They also need time to go outside. Regan supports the school track programme. “The dogs just love it. They get excited to go,” she said. The students look forward to it too. “It's really fun,” said Brady, who is a junior at Steinbrenner High School. “It's really good for our team. It teaches us to care more about others than ourselves.” Back at St. Joseph's in California, the run with dogs in the shelter has become a regular event. It has also resulted in adoptions. “Many dogs were adopted as a result of this,” Luis said. “That is the thing that I am probably most proud of.” Luis was happy his short video made a big difference. He said it was 60 seconds of kindness. “The world needs kindness,” Luis said. ( ) 4．What does the underlined word “They” here refer to? A．Dogs in the shelter. B．Other schools. C．Running coaches.

Nowadays more and more people are having this kind of feeling in their daily life. There are two kinds of loneliness: emotional loneliness and social loneliness. Emotional loneliness is about the relationship between parents and their children. When children leave their parents for a while, they usually show the pain, such as crying and trying to search for their parents. Therefore, emotional loneliness is caused by leaving a person that someone is close to, such as a parent. Social loneliness is the loneliness that one experiences when he or she leaves a wide social network. One doesn't feel that he or she is a member of a group, or one doesn't have friends to talk to when he or she is sad. Besides, loneliness is different from being alone. Being alone is about not having contact with people. But loneliness is a subjective experience: if people think they are lonely, then they are lonely. People can be lonely when they are alone, or in a group. What makes people lonely is the fact that they want more social interaction. People can be in a group and feel lonely because they don’t get to talk to enough people. On the other hand, one can be alone and not feel lonely, though there is no one around him or her. That person is not lonely because maybe he or she doesn't want to have social interaction at that time. So, what about you? Will you feel lonely if you stay alone, or you just enjoy spending time alone? ( ) 12．Why does the writer start the passage with questions? A．To let readers answer these questions. B．To ask for more ideas about loneliness. C．To make readers interested in the passage. D．To check students' understanding of loneliness. ( ) 13．What do a person with emotional loneliness and one with social loneliness have in common? A．They have no friends to talk to. B．They have a small social network. C．They have a feeling of being lonely. D．They don't get on well with their parents. ( ) 14．What does the underlined part “a subjective experience” mean? A．A hot subject B．A person's own feeling. C．A pain in the body. D．A person's special plan. ( ) 15．What can we learn from the third paragraph? A．One can be not lonely with nobody around. B．Being alone is an important reason for loneliness. C．Different people have the same level of social interaction. D．Staying with group members can make people feel less lonely. 三、任务型阅读（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） Do you feel stressed(焦虑的) quite often?

There are two kinds of loneliness:emotional loneliness and social loneliness.Emotional loneliness is about the relationship between parents and their children.When children leave their parents for a while,they usually show the pain,such as crying and trying to search for their parents. Therefore,emotional loneliness is caused by leaving a person that someone is close to,such as a parent.Social loneliness is the loneliness that one experiences when he or she leaves a wide social network.One doesn't feel that he or she is a member of a group,or one doesn't have friends to talk to when he or she is sad. Besides,loneliness is different from being alone.Being alone is about not having contact with people.But loneliness is a subjective experience:if people think they are lonely,then they are lonely.People can be lonely when they are alone,or in a group.What makes people lonely is the fact that they want more social interaction.People can be in a group and feel lonely because they don't get to talk to enough people.On the other hand,one can be alone and not feel lonely,though there is no one around him or her.That person is not lonely because maybe he or she doesn't want to have social interaction at that time. So,what about you?Will you feel lonely if you stay alone,or you just enjoy spending time alone? ()12.Why does the writer start the passage with questions?CCBA A.To let readers answer these questions. B.To ask for more ideas about loneliness. C.To make readers interested in the passage D.To check students'understanding ofloneliness. ()13.What do a person with emotional loneliness and one with social loneliness have in common? A.They have no friends to talk to. B.They have a small social network C.They have a feeling of being lonely D.They don't get on well with their parents. ()14.What does the underlined part"a subjective experience"mean? A.A hot subject B.A person's own feeling. C.A pain in the body. D.A person's special plan ()15.What can we learn from the third paragraph? A.One can be not lonely with nobody around.

Fans create funny nicknames for matches: Xuzhou vs Suqian is the “Chu-Han Rivalry (楚汉之争)”; Yangzhou vs Huai'an is the “Huaiyang Cuisine Derby(淮扬菜德比)”. Fans also make funny jokes about their cities.

This makes people want to visit other cities and watch the games. Many people share videos and pictures online. They sing songs for their teams. This makes the games more exciting!

Nowadays more and more people are having this kind of feeling in their daily life. There are two kinds of loneliness: emotional loneliness and social loneliness. Emotional loneliness is about the relationship between parents and their children. When children leave their parents for a while, they usually show the pain, such as crying and trying to search for their parents. Therefore, emotional loneliness is caused by leaving a person that someone is close to, such as a parent. Social loneliness is the loneliness that one experiences when he or she leaves a wide social network. One doesn't feel that he or she is a member of a group, or one doesn't have friends to talk to when he or she is sad. Besides, loneliness is different from being alone. Being alone is about not having contact with people. But loneliness is a subjective experience: if people think they are lonely, then they are lonely. People can be lonely when they are alone, or in a group. What makes people lonely is the fact that they want more social interaction. People can be in a group and feel lonely because they don’t get to talk to enough people. On the other hand, one can be alone and not feel lonely, though there is no one around him or her. That person is not lonely because maybe he or she doesn't want to have social interaction at that time. So, what about you? Will you feel lonely if you stay alone, or you just enjoy spending time alone? ( ) 12．Why does the writer start the passage with questions? CCBA A．To let readers answer these questions. B．To ask for more ideas about loneliness. C．To make readers interested in the passage. D．To check students' understanding of loneliness. ( ) 13．What do a person with emotional loneliness and one with social loneliness have in common? A．They have no friends to talk to. B．They have a small social network. C．They have a feeling of being lonely. D．They don't get on well with their parents. ( ) 14．What does the underlined part “a subjective experience” mean? A．A hot subject B．A person's own feeling. C．A pain in the body. D．A person's special plan. ( ) 15．What can we learn from the third paragraph? A．One can be not lonely with nobody around. B．Being alone is an important reason for loneliness. C．Different people have the same level of social interaction. D．Staying with group members can make people feel less lonely. 三、任务型阅读（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） Do you feel stressed(焦虑的) quite often?

Then, drop it from the roof of your school. Have you ever done this before? It's a classic science experiment called the egg drop challenge. Every year, many students around the world do it. The goal is to keep the eggs from breaking. But as many students quickly learn, that's easier said than done. Once the eggs break, teachers explain the physics behind the experiment. One popular conclusion is that eggs sitting straight are less likely to break than eggs sitting horizontally(水平地). But is it true? Tal Cohen is a professor. After running the egg drop challenge for years, she began to wonder if she told students the right story. To find out, she and her team bought more than 200 eggs and took them into the lab. In their experiments, the researchers found that eggs that landed on their sides were actually less likely to break. This is because the shell on an egg's sides is harder than that on its ends. When a dropped egg hits the ground on its side, the shell can soak up some of the blow. “It's just like the human body,” explained one of the researchers. “Imagine you are falling from a height. If you land with your legs straight, you'll break your bones. You'll want to bend your knees, and that's what the egg is doing.” Cohen's findings remind us that not everything is true. For this reason, we should keep an open mind and never be afraid to “break” some common wisdom. ( ) 12．What can we infer from the passage about the traditional conclusion that “eggs sitting straight are less likely to break”? A．It is completely wrong. B．The new research supports it. C．It's based on many experiments. D．All students accept it. ( ) 13．Why did Tal Cohen and her team do the experiment? A．To make students interested in physics. B．To find out why eggs break easily. C．To show how to wrap eggs properly. D．To test if the traditional conclusion was correct. ( ) 14．What is the writer's purpose in writing this passage? A．To introduce a classic science experiment. B．To explain the physics behind the egg drop challenge. C．To tell us not to believe common wisdom blindly. D．To show the process of scientific research. ( ) 15．What is the main idea of the passage? A．How to keep eggs from breaking in the egg drop challenge. B．A new finding about the egg drop challenge and its lesson. C．The difference between eggs landing on their sides and on their ends. D．The process of Tal Cohen's egg experiment. 三、任务型阅读（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） We easily feel stressed when we get more work to do. It's important to know how to solve problems and find ways to relax. First, we should try organizing our work from the most important to the least important as well as the most urgent(紧急的) to the least urgent. 1.___________ As soon as those are done, work on things that are important but not urgent.

Have you ever done this before?It's a classic science experiment called the egg drop challenge Every year,many students around the world do it.The goal is to keep the eggs from breaking.But as many students quickly learn,that's easier said than done.Once the eggs break,teachers explain the physics behind the experiment.One popular conclusion is that eggs sitting straight are less likely to break than eggs sitting horizontally(水平地).But is it true? Tal Cohen is a professor.After running the egg drop challenge for years,she began to wonder if she told students the right story.To find out,she and her team bought more than 200 eggs and took them into the lab. In their experiments,the researchers found that eggs that landed on their sides were actually less likely to break.This is because the shell on an egg's sides is harder than that on its ends.When a dropped egg hits the ground on its side,the shell can soak up some of the blow."It's just like the human body,"explained one of the researchers."Imagine you are falling from a height.If you land with your legs straight,you'll break your bones.You'll want to bend your knees,and that's what the egg is doing.” Cohen's findings remind us that not everything is true.For this reason,we should keep an open mind and never be afraid to "break"some common wisdom.

Have you ever done this before?It's a classic science experiment called the egg drop challenge Every year,many students around the world do it.The goal is to keep the eggs from breaking.But as many students quickly learn,that's easier said than done.Once the eggs break,teachers explain the physics behind the experiment.One popular conclusion is that eggs sitting straight are less likely to break than eggs sitting horizontally(水平地).But is it true? Tal Cohen is a professor.After running the egg drop challenge for years,she began to wonder if she told students the right story.To find out,she and her team bought more than 200 eggs and took them into the lab. In their experiments,the researchers found that eggs that landed on their sides were actually less likely to break.This is because the shell on an egg's sides is harder than that on its ends.When a dropped egg hits the ground on its side,the shell can soak up some of the blow."It's just like the human body,"explained one of the researchers."Imagine you are falling from a height.If you land with your legs straight,you'll break your bones.You'll want to bend your knees,and that's what the egg is doing.” Cohen's findings remind us that not everything is true.For this reason,we should keep an open mind and never be afraid to "break"some common wisdom.ADCB ()12.What can we infer from the passage about the traditional conclusion that"eggs sitting straight are less likely to break"?
