There are many ways to help improve your health like eating healthy food, taking exercise and getting medical help. But the easiest and cheapest way to improve your health is just to sleep eight hours or more every night. The general sleeping rule is that the younger you are, the longer sleep you need. But regardless of (不管) age, some people need to sleep more while for some a few hours is enough.
The problem with sleep is that more and more people in the world are not sleeping enough. According to the World Health Organization over half the people in the world may be sleep-deprived. Having less sleep not only makes people feel tired but also causes accidents. In the United States alone, sleepy drivers cause at least 100,000 traffic accidents a year. Also sleep problems can cause medical problems such as high blood pressure (高血压).
Why are so many people sleep-deprived? Part of the reasons may be cultural. In the American culture, people put a higher value on work than on sleep. In fact, people who sleep a lot are usually seen as “lazy”. Also, you can sometimes hear some people say proudly that they don’t have much time to sleep, they only sleep four or five hours a night. It seems that the less you sleep, the more work you’ll do.
How do we teach these people to learn the value of sleep? Perhaps they may listen to the advice of Dr. James Mans, an expert (专家) in sleep. He says, “Sleep is like a credit card (信用卡). When you sleep less, you are only borrowing time. You always have to pay it back. The more hours you don’t sleep, the more hours you should sleep to pay back the hours on your “sleep credit card”.
For those who value work more than sleep, they should listen to what a famous person once said “Don’t think you will be doing less work because you sleep during the night. That is a foolish idea which is held by people who have no imagination. You will be able to do more.”
5. According to the writer, the easiest and cheapest way to improve health is to ________.
A. eat healthy food every day B. take exercise as much as possible
C. get medical help whenever necessary D. sleep eight hours or more every night
6. What does “sleep-deprived” mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Having less sleep. B. Interested in sleep.
C. Excited about sleep. D. Having a good sleep.
7. What do the words of the famous person mean in Paragraph 5?
A. People have no courage. B. People always do less work.
C. Sleeping during the night is foolish. D. Sleeping during the night is helpful.
8. What is the best title of the passage?
A. What Is Sleep B. The Value of Sleep
C. How to Keep Healthy D. Sleep Less and Study More

Love Seeds
—Wang Wei
The red beans grow in southern land;
How many load in spring the trees?
Collect them till full is your hand;
They would recall sweet memories.
Translated by Xu Yuanchong and simplified by the editor
①Love is a popular theme in Chinese poems. What symbols do you think best stand for love? The heart, rose or chocolate? This time we are going to look at a classic Chinese poem, Love Seeds. It was written by the Tang Dynasty poet Wang Wei who had a different understanding of the symbol of love.
②In the first two lines, the poet expresses his feelings of missing his friend, who lives in the southern part, by describing the growth of red beans in spring. In classic Chinese poems, poets prefer to express feelings in an indirect or symbolic way. When describing the natural environment or showing some symbols, Chinese poets always mean more than what’s described on the surface.
③In Chinese culture, red beans are seen as “love seeds”, which have a strong cultural meaning. Because they are often hard, come in a heart shape and can be stored for a long time, those beans have long been used as a symbol of love and loyalty between lovers.
④In the last two lines, the poet wishes his faraway friend to collect as many red beans as possible, as the beans will bring back his friend’s memories of him.
⑤Instead of showing love to others by directly saying “I miss you” or using flowery language, this short poem can make readers feel deep love.
9. Who did Wang Wei write this poem to?
A. His wife. B. His parents. C. His friend. D. His children.
10. Wang Wei expresses feelings by ________ in this poem.
A. coming straight to the point B. using the imagination
C. using flowery language D. using a symbol
11. Paragraph③ mainly talks about ________.
A. what red beans look like B. how red beans are grown
C. what red beans are used for D. why red beans are seen as “love seeds”
12. What does Wang Wei want to show in this poem?
A. He misses someone. B. He loves spring very much.
C. He loves the beauty of nature. D. He wishes to go back to his hometown.
D
Even though there are many electronic communication methods, paper is still one of the most widely used materials in the world. According to the research, when we save tons of paper, we can save almost 13 trees,4100 kWh of electricity and 31,780 litres of water. So, look at these ways to reduce paper consumption (消耗). They can help save the planet’s valuable resources.
Donate your old books. Placing old books where they are needed will bring out their value of use. There are many places that want to have old books, especially places with a waiting room such as hospitals. But be sure to donate old books to some places in need. Some places might not need them.
Print on both sides of the paper. This will reduce the consumption of printing paper by half. Waste paper is also a good choice when you print some unofficial things, such as notes and reading materials. This can make full use of waste paper and ensure that they are not wasted.
Use an erasable board to take notes at home. Pick up a whiteboard or a blackboard and keep it close! It’s convenient for saving paper. You can use it to take down important information from phone calls.
Use notebooks until the end and save empty pages. Rather than throwing away empty notebooks at the end of a term, tear out the unused pages. Then put them together to create a new notebook.
13. Which of the following places probably won’t need old books?
A. Hospitals. B. Airports. C. Train stations. D. Tourist centers
14. ________ can’t be printed on waste paper.
A. Exercises B. Reading materials
C. The notes taken in class D. The letter for an interview
15. Which of the following ways is not mentioned?
A. Donate your old books. B. No more writing on paper.
C. Print on both sides of the paper. D. Use notebooks until the end and save empty pages.
16. How is the text organized? (①=Paragraph 1, ②=Paragraph 2, ...)
A. B. C. D.

How to Improve Your Reading
Learning how to read well in English might not be an easy task. ____17____ Reading well in English is useful for many reasons, not only for taking tests. If you want to improve your reading in English, the following are just for you!
Choose right reading materials (材料).
There are so many choices! There are textbooks and graded readers, but there are also a lot more books you can read. ____18____ Here is a good rule to follow: choose reading materials where you understand at least 80% of the content (内容).
Be intentional (意图明确的).
Being intentional means doing something on purpose with a reason in mind. With reading, you need to be intentional by setting a reading aim. Decide on a certain number of pages you want to read each day. ____19____ To make sure your daily practice gets done, spare some time and put it in your study plan!
____20____
Reading can both introduce you to new vocabulary (词汇) and teach you how to use them. Many words in English are often used together in a consistent (相互连贯的) way. Reading groups of words, or words that go together, will help you better understand how to use your new vocabulary.
Don’t try to understand everything.
As you’re practising your reading, you need to accept the fact that — you might not understand every single word, and that’s OK! Your brain can’t learn so many new things at one time. It’s more important to get the big picture of what you are reading.
A. Read word groups.
B. Don’t choose a book that is too easy or too difficult.
C. You could also be intentional with planning a time to read.
D. But it’s something you’ll have to do on your language learning journey.

Problems are often around us. Last month, I had a conflict with my parents about my smartphone.
They thought I spent too much time on it, but I felt I needed it to relax after studying. One day, they got angry and shouted at me. I was upset and didn’t want to talk. However, I soon calmed down. I decided to communicate with them calmly. I explained my feelings and promised to control my screen time. We finally made a rule together.
From this experience, I learned that communication is very important. We should be patient and try to understand each other.
