In my early 20s, I hardly went to bed before midnight, and I would always get up late the next morning. But after a while I couldnt ignore the high relationship between success and rising early. On those rare occasions where I did get up early, I noticed that my productivity (效率) was always higher. So I set out to bee a habitual early riser. But whenever my alarm went off, my first thought was always to stop that noise and go back to sleep. Eventually some sleep research showed that my strategy was wrong. The most mon wrong strategy is this: supposing youre going to get up earlier, youd better go to bed earlier. It sounds very reasonable, but will usually fail. There are two main schools (流派) of thought on sleep patterns. One is that you should go to bed and get up at the same time every day. The second school says you should go to bed when youre tired and get up when you naturally wake up. However, I have found both are wrong if you care about productivity. If you sleep at fixed hours, youll sometimes go to bed when you arent sleepy enough. Youre wasting time lying in bed awake. My solution is to bine both methods. I go to bed when Im sleepy and get up with an alarm clock at a fixed time. So I always get up at the same time (in my case 5 a.m.), but I go to bed at different times every night.However, going to bed only when Im sleepy, and getting up at a fixed time every morning are my ways. If you want to bee an early riser, you can try your own.56. According to the passage, the underlined phrase refers to _. A. people who stay up until the next morning B. people who get up early in the morning C. people who feel sleepy in the morning D. people whose productivity is the lowest in the morning57. Why did the author want to bee a habitual early riser? A. Because he / she wanted to have more sleep time. B. Because he / she wanted to do morning exercise.C. Because he / she wanted to test which school is better.D. Because he / she found that the productivity was higher. 58. The author experienced all the following EXCEPT _. A. going to bed after midnight B. asking scholars for advice on sleeping habitsC. getting up early occasionally D. pressing off the alarm to go on sleeping59. Whats the authors sleep pattern?A. Going to bed early and getting up early.B. Going to bed late and getting up late.C. Going to bed when sleepy and getting up at a fixed early time.D. Going to bed early and getting up late. 60. The passage is mainly about _. A. main schools of thought on sleep patterns B. how to have a good sleep C. wrong strategies for getting up early D. how to bee an early riserB Two hours from the tall buildings of Manhattan and Philadelphia (费城) live some of the worlds largest black bears. They are in northern Pennsylvanias Pocono Mountains, a home they share with an abundance of other wildlife. The streams, lakes, grassland, mountains and forests that make the Poconos an ideal place for black bears have also attracted more people to the area. Open spaces are threatened by plans for building houses and important habitats are endangered by highway construction. To protect the Poconos natural beauty from irresponsible development, the Nature Conservancy (自然保护协会) named the area one of Americas “Last Great Places”. The conservancys member Cook is working with local people and business leaders to balance economic growth with environmental protection. By cooperating with people like Francis Altemose, the Conservancy has been able to protect more than 14, 000 acres of environmentally important land in the area. Altemoses family has farmed in the Pocono area for generations. Two years ago Francis worked with the Conservancy to include his farm in a county farmland protection program. As a result, his familys land can be protected from development.Cook owes the Conservancys success in the Poconos to having a local presence and a mitment to working with local people. “The key to protecting these remarkable lands is connecting with the local munity”, Cook said. The people who live there respect the land. They value quiet forests, clear streams and abundant wildlife. They are eager to help with conservation effort.61. The purpose of naming the Poconos “Last Great Places” is to _.

A. the population in the Poconos is growing B. wildlife in the Poconos is increasing rapidly C. the security of the Pocono people is being threatened D. farmers in the Poconos are looking forward to the development.63. According to Cook, the success in protecting the Poconos lies in _.

A. Financial help from local business leaders. B. Consideration of the interests of the local people. C. The establishment of a new government in the area. D. The setting up of a local Nature Conservancy in the Pocono area.65. Which section of a newspaper is the passage most probably taken from? A. business B. sports C. environment D. cultureC In this age of Internet chat, videogames and reality television, there is no shortage of mindless activities to keep a child busy. Yet, my 8-year-old daughter Rebecca wants to spend her leisure time writing short stories. She wants to enter one of her stories into a writing contest, which she won last year. As a writer I know about winning and losing contests. I know what it is like to work hard on a story only to be rejected by the publisher. I also know the pressure of trying to live up to a reputation created by previous victories. What if she doesnt win the contest again? So many of my own past scars and dashed hopes can surface. A revelation (启示) came last week when I asked her, “Dont you want to win again?” “No,” she replied, “I just want to tell the story of an angel going to first grade.” I had just spent weeks correcting her stories as she spontaneously (自发地) told them. Telling myself that I was merely an experienced writer guiding the young writer, I offered suggestions for characters, conflicts and endings for her stories. The story about a fearful angel starting first grade was quickly “guided” by me into the story of a little girl. I had turned her contest into my contest without even realizing it. Staying back and giving kids space to grow is not as easy as it looks. While stepping back was difficult for me, it was certainly a good first step that I will quickly follow with more steps, putting myself far enough away to give her room but close enough to help if asked. All the while I will be reminding myself that children need room to experiment, grow and find their own voices.66. What do we learn from the first paragraph? A.

Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information fromthe passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.Food makes us feel good, but some people eat when they arent really hungry and eat to simply feel good. This kind of eating habit is called emotional eating, which does not affect adults but also young children. It isnt a good thing.A childs eating habits can develop right from childhood. As we know, a baby cries out if he doesnt get milk at the usual time of the day. However, sometimes parents immediately stick a bottle in a childs mouth without trying to find out if the child is really hungry. In fact, children may cry for other reasons. Even as children grow up and start going to school, parents sometimes give them a chocolate bar if they bee really unhappy. As the children further grow up, they may bee used to having a snack whenever theyre upset or low.Therefore, theyd like to eat an emotional snack when they have the feeling of unhappiness and boredom. Even when they dont get high grades, arent popular at school or made fun of by others, they will want something to eat. After having the snack, they feel a lot better.Emotional eating in young children is a thing that needs to be taken seriously. To protect your children from emotional eating, you should satisfy your childs emotional needs in the best possible way. This includes spending time with your child every day, taking an interest in his school work, helping your child study, providing a health environment without tension at home, etc. Dont make the child lose face by scolding him. Develop confidence in your child. Make your child eat enough once in a while. Reward him for his achievements. All this will help your little one develop a healthy eating habit. And always remember love and care is the key to help you child out of trouble and grow up happily.

Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage. We lived in a very quiet neighborhood. One evening I heard a loud crash in the street. Earlier that evening my wife had asked me to go to the store to get some soft drinks. It seemed like this would be a good time to let my teenager daughter Holly practice her driving. At dinner my son talked about how much he liked my truck. I enjoyed having it, but I said, “Guy, my heart is not set on that truck. I like it but it is just metal and wont last forever. Never set your heart on anything that wont last.” After hearing the loud noise, the whole family ran outside. My son shouted, “Dad! Dad, Holly crashed your truck.” My heart sank and my mind was flooded with conflicting thoughts. Was anyone hurt? Who else was involved? As I ran to the door, I heard a voice in my heart say, “Here is a chance to show Holly what you really love. Shell never forget it.” The accident had occurred in my own driveway. Holly had crashed my truck into our other vehicle, the family van (搬运车). In her inexperience, she had confused the brakes and the gas pedal. Holly was unhurt physically, but when I reached her, she was crying and saying, “Oh, Dad, Im sorry. I know how much
