This may sound like a lot of time, but it is not wasted. Our bodies need sleep to stay healthy. Not getting enough sleep can make us sick. Sleep and our immune（免疫）systemThe immune system protects the body from diseases and infections（传染）. Not getting enough sleep hurts this protective system. The Mayo Clinic is a research hospital in the United States. Its website explains that when we sleep our bodies produce proteins（蛋白质） that support sleep and help us fight infections. They add that infection-fighting antibodies（抗体） are reduced during periods when you dont get enough sleep. A new study from the University of Washington in the U. S. seems to confirm this. Dr. Nathaniel Watson was the lead writer of the study. Watson says his study shows that the immune system works best when the body gets enough sleep. For the study, Watson and his team studied 11 pairs of twins. This is an important difference from other sleep studies. Other research did not study twins. Researchers found that the twin who slept less had a weaker immune system. Watson says his study showed for the first time that a long-term lack（缺乏）of sleep shuts down parts of the immune system. He says parts that move white blood cells around the body are influenced. White blood cells fight infections in the body. Watsons study provides more evidence（证据）that sleep is important tooverall health. And sleep is especially important to immune health. The researchers published their findings in the magazine Sleep. How much sleep is enough?To stay in good health, experts at the Mayo Clinic say that adults should get 7 to 8 hours of sleep. Teenagers need 9 to 10 hours. And school-aged children may need more than 10 hours of sleep a night. Experts say our sleep becomes poor in our 30s. By the time we reach our 50s, the average person has lost 50 percent of their ability to have a restful sleep. These people also have trouble falling asleep and staying asleep through the night. From middle age on, they say these problems only get worse, and they can influence our health. Signs you may not be getting enough sleepYoure always hungry or youve gained weight. You have trouble making decisions. You have trouble remembering things. Your skin doesnt look good. You are having trouble seeing. （1）From the first three paragraphs we know that . A . it is a waste to spend about one-third of our lives asleepB . well become seriously ill if we dont have enough sleepC . enough sleep does good to infection-fighting antibodiesD . immune system is protected when people begin to sleep（2）From Watsons study, we know .

It tells us about individual people: their personality, age, place in society and so on. If we want to know more about society, we can look at traditional clothing.The continent of Africa has a long history and a rich culture, and this is shown in traditional dress. You often find three colors red, gold and green in the clothing. The first color stands for the blood of millions of people who suffered as slaves(奴隶),The second is for the rich resources of the African earth, and the third represents the grasslands of home.The patterns on the clothing also have a meaning. A common pattern is in the form of a cross “, which stands for “unity. Another pattern is a rectangular（矩形） box, which represents “strength.Because clothing has a strong social meaning, people are very careful in choosing what to wear. It would be a serious mistake to wear the wrong clothing, or to wear clothes in the wrong way. For instance, in Ghana, a woman should wear her waistband differently according to the importance of the social event.Traditional dress also tells us about everyday life. African designs are famous for loose(宽松的) clothing. The climate, with the hot sun and wide temperature ranges(变化), requires that the clothes are comfortable for daily life.Although many people wear western clothes, particularly in the big cities in Africa, traditional dress is very highly valued(评价). This is because it has deep cultural meanings.（1）What is the passage mainly about ? A . The history of African clothesB . The cultural traditions of African dressC . African modern fashion stylesD . The materials used in African traditional dress（2）Clothing tells us everything except their _. A . age and place in societyB . style and place in societyC . personality and ageD . height and weight（3）According to the passage, red _. A . represents the setting sunB . is chosen because it is a bright colourC . stands for African unityD . is a reminder of the sad history in Africa（4）The color that stands for wealth is_ . A . GoldB . GreenC . YellowD . Black（5）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A . There are two patterns on African traditional dresses.B . Africans get tired of loose clothing because it is out of style.C . In Ghana, always wearing the same waistband is a mistake.D . We can learn the weather at night in Africa is as hot as that in the day.七、 书面表达 (共1题；共5分)36. （5分）作为九年级的学生你在生活或学习方面或多或少取得了一些进步，请你以My Progress为题用英语写一篇短文向校刊Sunshine投稿，文章包括： 1）在哪方面取得进步2）取得进步原因3）下一步打算4）要求：1）文章中不能出现真实个人身份信息2）文章字数100左右第 19 页 共 19 页参考答案一、 从A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 (共15题；共30分)1-1、2-1、3-1、4-1、5-1、6-1、7-1、8-1、9-1、10-1、11-1、12-1、13-1、14-1、15-1、二、 完形填空 (共1题；共15分)16-1、三、 阅读理解 (共3题；共28分)17-1、17-2、17-3、17-4、18-1、18-2、18-3、18-4、18-5、19-1、19-2、19-3、19-4、19-5、四、 词汇检测 (共10题；共35分)20-1、21-1、22-1、22-2、22-3、22-4、22-5、23-1、24-1、25-1、26-1、27-1、27-2、27-3、27-4、27-5、27-6、27-7、27-8、27-9、27-10、27-11、27-12、27-13、28-1、29-1、五、 句子翻译 (共5题；共15分)30-1、31-1、32-1、33-1、34-1、六、 阅读表达 (共1题；共10分)35-1、35-2、35-3、35-4、35-5、七、 书面表达 (共1题；共5分)36-1、
