（每小题 2 分，满分40 分）AMarch 5 is Lei Feng Day. People are encouraged to help others and to learn from Lei Feng. This year, my school student union went to one of our city’s tourist sites to help clean it up.We finished our work, took photos and chatted with street vendors ( 小商贩) about their lives. One old lady said she remembered how all students used to go out into the streets and do voluntary work. Another told us that when she was small,she and her friends would do a lot of simple but practical things to help others. They would help old ladies carry things or fix broken chairs at school.“But things have changed over the years. The younger generation doesn’t really understand the spirit of Lei Feng,” an old man said, “Young people simply do what they are told at school. They do ‘good deeds’ because they are told to and take photos to put on the school website.”His words made me think. We had been told to do things to hep people on Lei Feng Day. But none of that love and care came from our own hearts. None of it was sincere. What should matter most are our good intentions and the ability to follow them through.We should believe that every one of us can make a difference. Good will means holding out a helping hand to people whenever possible, even if we can only make a small difference. We shouldn’t need cameras or praise to make us do good things. We can only pass on the spirit of Lei Feng if we actually feel that spirit inside ourselves.26.The student union went to the tourist site to .A.go sightseeingB.help do some cleaningC.clear away the vendorsD.chat with the vendors27.After work, the students and the vendors talked about .A.the hard life of all the vendorsB.the experience of helping othersC.the skills of making clothesD.the rewards of the job28.Which of the following is NOT an example of how “things have changed over the years”?A.Young people don’t understand the spirit of Lei Feng.B.Students just follow the requirements of the school.C.Doing a good deed has become a kind of show on the website.D.Helping others is no longer important.29.The underlined word “them” refers to according to the passage.A. our own heartsB. some thingsC. his wordsD. our good intentions30.How can we learn from Lei Feng, according to the writer?A.Do what your school tells you to do.B.Talk sincerely with the vendors.C.Always help others in need.D.Only do something more once you are praised.BOne Sunday morning, I was unhappy. Two of my friends went to the movies the day before, but they didn’t invite me. I was in my room thinking of ways to make them sorry when my father came in and asked, “Want to go for a ride today Judy?”“No! Leave me alone!” Those were the last words I said to him that morning.My friends invited me to go swimming with them a few hours later. I forgot to be angry with them and went. When Icame back home, I saw a note (便条), “Dad has an accident. Go to Highland Park Hospital. Mom.”As soon as I reached the hospital, my mother held my hand and said, “Luckily, your dad was able to tell others to leave him alone and just call 911! If they had moved him...” My mother talked a lot, but I only remembered: LEAVE HIME ALONE.Weeks later, my father was able to talk. One day, I said sorry to him for what I said that Sunday morning. He smiled and said he remembered nothing but saying goodnight to me the night before.I knew he was lying. I regretted my thoughtless words. I never really wanted him to leave me alone. It was too terrible to imagine.Words do have great power. They can hurt or they can heal (治愈).

She did not know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up. She was tired of fighting and struggling. It seemed as one problem was solved a new one arose.Her father, a cook, took her to the kitchen. He filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. In one he placed carrots, in the second he placed eggs, and in the last he placed coffee beans. He led them boil, without saying a word.The daughter had no idea what he was trying to do. Half an hour later, he turned down the fire and placed the carrots, eggs and the coffee into different bowls. He asked his daughter, “Darling, what do you see?”“Carrots, eggs, and coffee,” she replied.He brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots. She did and noticed that they were soft. He then asked her to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she watched the hard-boiled egg. Finally, he asked her to taste the coffee.The daughter enjoyed the taste of coffee and smiled.She asked, “What does it mean. Father?”He explained, “Each of them had faced the same situation, 212 degrees of boiling water. However, they had different results. The carrots went in strong and hard. But after going through boiling water, they became soft and weak. She asked. The inside of the egg became hardened in the boiling water. It was also changed by the water like the carrots. However, the coffee beans are the most powerful. After they were in the boiling water, they turned the water into tasty coffee.“Which are you?” he asked his daughter. “When adversity (逆境) knocks on your door, how do you respond (反应)?

Carrots, Eggs and Coffee BeansDHave you ever experienced the feeling of falling as you start to fall asleep? Sometimes you may wake up to this feeling. If so, don’t worry. Many people have felt the same thing.In fact, the muscle twitches (肌肉抽搐) in the arms, legs or other parts of the body are called hypnic jerks (入睡抽动) or sleep starts. And they are very common. Up to 70 percent of people experience them sometimes, Huffington Post reported. But what causes it?There are some theories. Some scientists believe that the feeling of falling comes from the body relaxing itself, especially if the person is anxious or unable to get comfortable. As you’re about to sleep, your m uscles become relaxed. But your brain stays awake. It misunderstands the relaxing of your muscles as a sign that you’re falling. Then the brain jerks th e body awake as if it’s trying to protect you.Other scientists believe that different phases of sleep might cause the hypnic jerks. When we sleep, we experience two phases: non-rapid eye movement (NREM, 非快速眼动睡眠期) and rapid eye movement (REM, 快速眼动睡眠期). During REM, our heart rate, breathing and nervous system can act irregularly. If the body experiences flashes ( 一瞬间) of REM while entering sleep, these irregularities could cause twitches.If you don’t want to experience hypnic jerks, scientists have some suggestions. When you become deeply relaxed, you can learn how to reconnect (再联系) slowly by moving your fingers and toes a little bit. Then start to move your head and open your eyes, while being aware of yourself as you get out of the relaxed state.But experts agree that hypnic jerks, though sometimes scary, are harmless. If it wakes you up, simply roll over and go back to sleep. But keep in mind: a caffeinated (含咖啡因的) drink, exciting evening activities or stress may make hypnic jerks happen more often.41.of people don’t experience hypnic jerks.A. About 30 percentB.
