drops a little.You can be easily woken.
NREM
NREM stage 3:deep sleep.Breathing and heart rate
reach their lowest levels.Muscles are fully relaxed,and it is
hard to wake you.Sleepwalking and sleeptalking mainly
happen here.

minute period),you enter REM sleep(a 5-15 minute period).During REM sleep,your eyes move
rapidly from side to side.Most vivid()dreams happen here,though dreams also happen in

Sharks are usually thought to live alone but a new study
suggests that b ull sharks form social relationships and have"friends"
they prefer to spend time with.
Scientists watched 184 sharks at Shark Reef Marine Reserve in
Fiji over six years.The sharks were fed together inside a protected
area and researchers could dive()down and watch them.The
team recorded behaviours such as parallel swimming(平行游),
sharks leading and following each other.And they noted how close together the sharks swam,especially
when they stayed within about two metres of each other.
They found that adult sharks have the most social connections.Both maled(雄性)and female(雌性)
bull sharks prefer to hang out with females.But males form more social connections in general because
males are smaller than females.In this way,they can protect themselves from larger sharks.

The researchers said bull sharks might get the same benefits from social connections as other
animals,including learning new skills,finding food and mates and staying safe from predators,who may
catch and kill them for food.
"As humans,we de velop different kinds of social relationships-from simple relationships to close
relationships,but we also actively avoid certain people-and these bull sharks are doing similar things,"
said Natasha D.Marosi,who led the research.
The scientists said understanding how bull sharks interact()can teach us more about how they
live together and move around,which can help with protection efforts.
24.What have scientists discovered about bull sharks?
A.They live alone.
B.They have"friends".
C.They swim fast.
25.Why do the male sharks have more social connections?
A.Because they want to find food easily.
B.Because they are smaller than females.
C.Because they prefer to hang out with females.
26.What does the underlined word"predators"mean?
A.Enemies.
B.Researchers.
C.Divers.
27.In which part of a magazine can we probably read the passage?
A.Culture.
B.Geography.
C.Science.

Starting a small garden is a wonderful and meaningful hobby.It can bring
endless happiness to our daily life and help us master some basic living skills.

and make plants grow faster and stronger.Poor soil stops plants growing and will greatly influence the

seedlings().Both ways work very well.They are simple to operate and perfectly fit new gardeners.
Follow practical advice
If you are a beginner,you'd better follow some practical suggestions.You are supposed to choose
those easy-to-grow plants at first.Never try to plant too many different kinds in a short period of
time.
35.They will not cost you too much time and energy.
Gardening is truly a rewarding(有回报的)experience.As time goes by,your plants will grow into
beautiful flowers and produce fresh fruits.You will get a strong sense of achievement.

I still remember the cold winter morning three years ago clearly.At that time,I was a middle school
student who felt lost and hopeless.I failed my final math exam badly,and I had a big fight with my best
friend.Everything around me seemed 36,and I thought no one cared about me at all.I walked
slowly to 37 with my head down,not wanting to talk to anyone or face my teachers.
When I passed a small coffee shop on the street,an old lady who worked there stopped me with a
warm smile.She 38 my sad face and asked if I was okay.I didn't want to tell a stranger my troubles,
but she looked so kind that I poured out all my unhappiness to her.She 39 quietly without saying a
word,holding a cup of hot milk in her hand.
After I finished talking,she handed me the hot milk and said softly,"Everyone meets hard times in
life,but they never last long.A small 40 or a fight doesn't mean your life is bad.You are young,
and you have enough time to fix mistakes and make things right."Her 41 were simple,but they
touched my heart deeply.
That day,I went to school with the warm milk in my hand.I tried to calm down,studied math 42
every day,and said sorry to my friend sincerely().Little by little,my math grades got better,and
my friendship with my best friend came back.I 43 that even a few kind words from a stranger can
give people great courage to move on.
Now,I always try to pass this kindness to others.When I see someone worried,I stop to give a smile
or a few warm words.This small positive energy taught me that 44 is the most beautiful thing in the
world.It can 45 a dark moment and help people find their way back to hope.We never know how
much our small kindness can change someone's life,so we should always keep a kind and positi ve heart.
