Instead of asking to go to summer camp or on a vacation, 10-year-old Liam Hannon asked his dad, Scott Hannon, if he could make bagged lunches and hand them out to the homeless all around Cambridge. "Liam has a huge heart, Hannon said about his son. “Plus, it was something nice we could do together as father and son and with my wife and baby.”
Soon after telling his father his plans, Liam started "Liam's Lunches of Love,” and started handing out 20 lunches each week. "Many of the people we help are actually
really nice and just a little kindness matters in their lives," Liam said. "It just feels really good help.”
After seeing how passionate Liam was about his project, Hannon started a GoFundMe to raise money so they could make 60 lunches each week. "It makes me really proud as a dad," Hannon added, So far, Liam has handed out 300 lunches and even though summer is over, he has continued his community service on the weekends.
“What Scott and Liam have done has really given the homeless self-respect and kindness in a really tough circumstance," said Krystal Kelly, director of development at the Hildebrand Family Help Center where Liam also collects school things for homeless children, "it's the first time that any of those people has been looked at in the eye or anyone has noticed their presence, To think that a 10-year-old can be that selfless, it's atrazine.”

My first tip is to prepare yourself for revising（复习）. During the term, you must
have gone to the lectures and taken a lot of notes. These are the first steps in learning. Now, at the end of the term, gather all the notes you took and run through them quickly. While doing this, keep asking yourself, "Do I understand what I am reading?" If yes, great. If not, you have to spend some time understanding them before the exams take place.
My second tip is to plan different types of revision in order to study more efficiently. Even if you are interested, everyone gets bored after a couple of hours of studying. Something that really helps is to plan different types of active studying while revising. You switch between useful study methods so you won't get bored and it's easier to study for longer period of time.
One thing that can really help you to memorize your study material more easily is to make the facts more connected. There are many different ways to do so, I’m going to give you two examples and the first one is to create pictures in your mind while studying. This can be really helpful for studying history, for example. The second method, especially for learning new words： Try to make yourself familiar with new
words by looking for the ones that look alike.

On this program we explore common expressions in American English. Today, we talk about expressions that began behind the wheels of automobiles. Now they are common expressions that we use in everyday conversations.
Well, let's not delay any longer. Let’s get ' this show on the road!
“To get the show on the road" means to begin something as soon as possible. It's a casual expression that we use when we want to start something, anything an activity or project or an actual road trip.
Well, not any activity. You would not likely use this expression to begin something sad, such as a funeral. It is a lighthearted expression.
So, the person who says "hey, let's get this show on the road in is taking charge. They want to start things. They want to get things going. You could say they are in the driver's seat. Just as the driver is in control of their vehicle, the person in the driver's seat of an activity, event or project is also in control, Feel free to use this phrase in any situation, formal of informal.
Speaking free, most rides are not. They cost money. When you take a taxi you must pay for it. If you drive a car, you must pay for gas, repairs and insurance. It is great when you get a free ride to where you are going.
However, in life, to get a free ride means to gain from something without having to do anything in exchange. It can be annoying to have a friend or co-worker who is always trying to get a free ride. They do not give. They just take, take, take!
Now, when we are actually driving, the phrage go down that road simply means to drive down a road, We would say this when we give directions. “Go down that road for about a mile and you’ll see your destination on the right." But in conversations, it has an interesting meaning. To go down that road means to make a decision. But it is more than that. It also means that this decision may bring trouble or leave you in a difficult place. We often more use this phrase as a warning.
28. The underlined word "lighthearted" in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to ___.
A. amazing
B. humourous
C. cheerful
D. heartbreaking
29. What can we learn from the passage?
A. "To get this show on the road" can be used to start anything.
B. The person “in the driver’s seat” is the one in charge.
C. Someone who likes getting a free ride is always welcome.
D. We can use "go down that road" as an encouragement.
30. What do the four expressions have in common?
A. They all have something to do with transport.
B. They all can be used in any situation.
C. They are not used when we're actually travelling.
D. They are all used to talk about driving cars.
31. Where probably is the text from?
A. A radio broadcast.
B. A guide book.
C. A travel journal.

We humans spend about one-third of our lives asleep. This may sound like a lot of time, but it is not wasted. Sleep not only helps us stay healthy but it also helps our brains remember. Our brains need good sleep to remember what we do and learn during the other two thirds of our lives when we are awake.
Researchers at the University of Wisconsin-Madison have found that sleep helps improve brain performance by shrinking（收缩）synapses in the brain. A synapse is the area where cells pass messages to other cells.
Scientist Chiara Cirelli is a leader at the school 's Center for Sleep and Consciousness. She told the reporter that sleep is when the human brain mixes information it has learned while awake into its general collection of knowledge. Meanwhile, the brain forgets unimportant details. This forgetting is important. It makes space for new learning and new memories.
Cirelli said that the Centers research began with this hypothesis（假设）: We sleep so that our brain can repair and refresh itself, She said the idea seems simple and reasonable. However, testing and discovering how it works has been extremely difficult.
Synapses are only about 20-40 nanometers wide. The team began their study by measuring（测量） the size of the synapses to look for changes in these already tiny spaces between nerve cells. Cirelli says the process（过程） is difficult because "all the actual measurements of the synapses have to be done by hand.” The team had to wait until improvements in laboratory technology made it possible to see these tiny changes. A University of Wisconsin press release called the research a "huge job.”Many research specialists worked for four years to photograph, rebuild and study certain areas of a mouse brain. The report also said the scientists measured 6,920 synapses.
Cirelli says they found that our synapses shrink as our brains clean themselves during sleep. We wake up refreshed and ready to fill those synapses with new information. The research findings are the result of years of hard work at the
University of Wisconsin Madison. The researchers published their findings in the journal Science.
32. How does the brain help improve our memory while we are sleep?
A. By not forgetting any learnt knowledge.
B. By keeping learning new information.
C. By repeating information learnt before.
D. By adding new knowledge to its old collection.
33. What is the fifth paragraph mainly about?
A. The size for the synapses.
B. The preparations for the measuring work.
C. The difficulties in the measuring work.
D. The result of the measuring work.
34. What can we infer about the research work?
A. The synapses were found bigger after a good night’s sleep.
B. The researchers carried out their work with a human brain.
C. The team began their research as soon as they decided to.
D. The findings proved their hypothesis was right.
35. What is the result of the research?
A. Sleep helps us keep healthy.
B. Sleep helps us learn better.
C. Sleep helps the brain shrink.
D. Sleep takes one-third of our lifetime

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Best friend for a lifetime
The Year of the Dog will begin on Feb 16, according to the Chinese lunar calendar, Decorations about dogs will hang on doors or windows.
Dogs are man's best friend. 36 It means that dogs are loyal（忠实的）, and will stay with their owners through thick and thin.
Although dogs are seen as family members today, China and Western countries have different cultural beliefs about dogs. In Chinese, some words concerning dogs have negative meanings, such as "No ivory can come out of a dog’s mouth." 37 For instance, people use "every dog has its day" to describe a period of good fortune.
38 Perhaps the most touching example is from the 8th century BC, in Greek poet Homer's The Odyssey. When Greek hero Odysseus finally returns home after 20 years away at war, only one person-sorry, animal- recognizes him; his dog, Argos, Argos is an old, sick dog, and is about to die; he is overjoyed to see his owner again after so many years.
39 For example, Dutch artist Breughel's painting The Hunters in the Snow （1565） first shows a detail of hunting dogs following closely behind hunters as they return from the hunt to their snow-covered farm.
