basic as the need for oxygen.Getting a good night’s sleep is not only directly related to how we feel the next day,but to our longterm health as well.Still,many of us suffer from at least occasional insomnia (失眠).Even more of us report at least one night of restless sleep per week thatleaves us feeling ill and irritable.This is a serious problem.If you think otherwise,consider this.People who sleep four hours or less per night are twice as likely not to survive in six years as those who sleep the normal eight hours or so.Given the seriousness of sleep,how can we make sure that we rest well and stay healthy?While there are no one hundred percent reliable methods,here are some suggestions from sleep experts.If you do have trouble sleeping and these methods don’t help,it’s important that you see a doctor before in somnia causes your health to suffer.Start with these suggestions,though.•If you can’t sleep in the middle of the night,don’t get up.Exposing yourself to bright light will affect your body clock and worsen your insomnia.•Avoid naps (小睡),except for a brief tentofifteenminute nap between 2∶00 and 4∶00 pm.•Get regular exercise each day,but finish at least six hours before bedtime.Exercising in the evening can help keep you awake.•Take a hot bath for thirty minutes within two hours of bedtime.The bath wil l warm you,relax you,and make you feel sleepy.•Keep your bedroom dark,quiet,and well ventilated (通风的).• Keep a regular schedule seven days a week.Sleeping late on the weekends can lead to insomnia during the week.•Get at least half an hour of sunlight w ithin thirty minutes of waking.Without the sunlight,your body doesn’t know it’s awake.•Keep the face of the clock in your bedroom turned away,and don’t find out what time it is when you awaken in the night.Pleasant Dreams!1.The first paragraph is mainly intended to________.A.offer possible reasons for insomniaB.show the importance of a good sleepC.give some advice on how to have a good

to feel surprised.They are a flash mob (暴民).Who are they?Are they mobs?Don’t be confused by their name.Actually,a flash mob is a group of people who gather suddenly in a public place,do something unusual for a brief period of time,and then quickly disappear.They are usually organized with the help of the Internet or other digital communications networks.The messages may be sent to friends,who send to more people.At a predetermined time,they gather and perform some activities such as exchanging books,coming together to look at the sky,waving their hands and yelling something at the top of their voice for 30 seconds.Then,they quickly disappear before the police can ing mobile phones,the flash mob can change its place if the first one has been cancelled for any reason.Bill Wasik,senior editor of Harper’s Magazine,organized the first flash mob in Manhattan in May 2003 and the first successful flash mob gathered on June 3,2003.Wasik claimed that he created the flash mob as a social experiment designed to laugh at fashion seekers and stress the cultural atmosphere of wanting to be an insider or part of “the next big thing”.Flash mob gatherings can sometimes shock people.Such an activity might seem amusing and magical,but it also might frighten people who are not aware of what is taking place.Undoubtedly,flash mob can serve as good political tools and have great potential,such as using to advertise a product.The flash mob is now becoming more and more popular.People use it to do many things.Flash mobs give people from all walks of life an opportunity to come

Unit 5 Into the wildⅠ.阅读理解Lemurs are cute animals that live on the island of Madagascar, the fourthlargest island in the world. Lemurs have big eyes, long noses, and long tails (except for the Indri) and live high in the trees of Madagascan forests. Lemurs are quite intelligent. They are the cousins of monkeys and look quite similar. They also swing through the trees and live in family groups.There are different species of lemurs. Some lemurs (the Indri) sing like a whale, and some (the Sifaka) walk like a ballet dancer. Some lemurs are very small, like the Pygmy Mouse Lemur which weighs only 25—30 grams. Others, like the Indri, can weigh up to ten kilograms. Some lemurs are nocturnal,_being awake at night and sleeping during the day, and some are not nocturnal but diurnal. Generally, the smaller lemurs are nocturnal, while the bigger ones are diurnal. All the species are unique to Madagascar.However, all of the lemurs are endangered species. Many species have already disappeared in the last few centuries. There are not many of lemurs left. People in Madagascar have been destroying the forests where lemurs live. Local people also hunt lemurs for food. Some of the local people see lemurs as bringers of bad luck, so they kill lemurs.At the moment, there are about 85 lemur species left. But many people fear that the number of species will fall quickly. Soon there may be no lemurs left if we do not make serious efforts to protect them.本文是一篇说明文。

Word had gone round during the day that old Major, the prize Middle White pig, had had a st range dream on the previous night and wished to communicate it to the other animals. It had been agreed that they should all m eet in the big barn(谷仓) as soon as Mr.Jones was safely out of the way.At one end of the big barn, Major lay on his bed of straw comfor tably. He was twelve years old and had lately grown rather hea vy, but he was still a nicelooking pig, with a wise and easygoing appearance. Before long the other animals began to arrive and make themselves comfortable after their different fashions. Firs t came the three dogs, Bluebell, Jessie, and Pincher, and then t he pigs, who settled down in the straw immediately beside Majo r. The two carthorses, Boxer and Clover, came in together, walk ing very slowly and setting down their vast hairy hoofs(蹄子) with great care for fear that there should be some small ani mals hidden in the straw. Clover was a motherly big horse appr oaching middle life, who had never quite got her figure back after her fourth kid.Boxer was an enormous beast, nearly eighteen hands high, an d as strong as any two ordinary horses put together. A white stri pe down his nose gave him a somewhat stupid appearance, an d in fact he was not of firstrate intelligence, but he was well resp ected for his steadiness of character and extraordinary abilities. After the horses came Benjamin, the donkey, Benjamin got an gry easily. He seldom talked, and when he did, it was usually to make all such remarks—for instance, he would say that God had given him a tail to keep the flies off, but that he would rather have had no tail and no fli es. Alone among the animals on the farm he never laughed. If a sked why, he would say that he saw nothing to laugh at. 16.All the animals came to the barn to ________.A.vote for a farm masterB.listen to Major's strange dreamC.discuss how to win a prizeD.share how to drive Mr. Jones away17.According to the passage, Clover was ________.A.considerate and in good shapeB.oldaged and out of shapeC.a fat horse with a gentle heartD.a pretty horse with a nice character18.What earned Boxer high respect?A.His strong build and great wisdom.B.His calm character and great powers of work.C.His good temper and strong build.D.His steady character and quick mind.19.Which remark could be to Benjamin's taste?A.Life is like a box of sweets.B.Life is an interesting journey.C.Life is a battle.D.There is nothing exciting in life.B[2012·福建卷]Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you st art yawning too? Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself? Well, apparently it's because we have mirror neurons(神经元)in our brains.Put simply, the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate(模仿)it, whether or not we actually perform the same action. This explains a great deal about how we learn to smile, talk, walk, da nce or play sports. But the idea goes further: mirror neurons notonly appear to explain physical actions, they also tell us that th ere is a biological basis for the way we understand other people .Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains, bu t especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use langua ges, and to understand how other people feel. Researchers hav e found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language. A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences t o listen to(for example:“The hand took hold of the ball”), the same mirror neurons were triggered as when the action was actually performed(in this exa mple, actually taking hold of a ball).Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior. Much research suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not full y functioning. However, it is not yet known exactly how these di scoveries might help find treatments for social disorders. Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever mo re information concerning how humans behave and interact(互动).Indeed, it may turn out to be the equivalent(相等物)for neuroscience of what Einstein's theory of relativity was fo r physics. And the next time you feel the urge to cough in the ci nema when someone else does—well, perhaps you'll understand why.20.Mirror neurons can explain ________.A.why we cry when we are hurtB.why we cough when we suffer from a coldC.why we smile when we see someone else smileD.why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late 21.The underlined word “triggered” in the third paragraph prob ably means “________”.A.set off B.cut offC.built up D.broken up22.We can learn from the passage that mirror neurons ______ __.A.relate to human behavior and interactionB.control human physical actions and feelingsC.result in bad behavior and social disordersD.determine our knowledge and language abilities23.What is the passage mainly about?A.Ways to find mirror neurons.B.Problems of mirror neurons.C.Existence of mirror neurons.D.Functions of mirror neurons.Ⅲ.短文填词Most Americans don't like to get advice from members of their f amily. They get advice 24.________ “strangers”. When they nee d advice, they don't usually go to people they know. 25._______ _, many of them write letters to newspapers and 26.m_______ _ that give advice on many different subjects 27.i________ famil y problems, the use of language, health, cooking, child care, clo thes, and 28.________ on how to buy a house or a car. Most ne wspapers 29.r________ print letters from readers with problems. Along with the letters there are answers written by people who are 30.s________ to know how to 31.________ (解决) such problems.

B.7′. C.6′6″. D.6′3″.33.What may happen to restaurants with small tables?A.They may lose some customers.B.They may start businesses elsewhere.C.They have to find easy chairs to match the tables.D.They have to provide enough space for the longlegged.34.What change has already been made in a hotel in Edinburgh?A.Tall people pay more for larger beds.B.6′6″ beds have taken the place of 6′3″ beds.C.Special rooms are kept for Americans.D.Guest rooms are standardized.B[2011·四川卷]It’s 5:00 in the morning when the alarm (闹钟) rings in my ears. I roll out of bed and walk blindly through the dark into the bathroom. I turn on the light and put on my glasses. The house is still as I walk downstairs while my husband and three kids sleep peacefully. Usually I go for a long run, but today I choose my favoriteexercise DVD,Insanity.Sweat pours down my face and into my eyes. My heart races as I force my body to finish each movement. As I near the end of the exercise,I feel extremely tired, but a smile is on my face. It’s not a smile because the DVD is over, but a smile of success from pushing my body to its extreme limit.Some people enjoy shopping, smoking, food, work, or even chocolate. But I need exercise to get through each day. Some shake heads when they see me run through the town. Others get hurt when I refuse to try just one bite of their grandmother’s ch ocolate cake. They raise their eyebrows, surprised by my “no thank you,” or by my choice to have a salad. Over the years, I have learned it’s okay to just say “no.” I shouldn’t feel sorry for refusing food that I don’t want to eat.So what drives me to roll out of bed at 5:00 a.m.?What gives me the reason to just say no to ice cream? Commitment. A commitment to change my life with a way that reduces daily anxiety,increases selfconfidence and energy,extends life and above all improves my body shape.This is the point where a smile appears on my face as I look at myself in the mirror or try on my favorite pair of jeans that now fit just right.It’s through commitment and sweat that I can make a difference within myself inside and out.35.Why is there a smile on the author’s face in the morning?A.Because she sees her family sleeping peacefully.B.Because she finishes her favorite exercise.C.Because she enjoys the interesting DVD.D.Because she feels a sense of achievement.36.Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 2?A.She doesn’t treat others politely.B.She likes to make others surprised.C.Others don’t understand what she does.D.Others try to help her by offering her food.37.What does the underlined word “commitment” in the last paragraph mea n?A.Good health.B.Firm belief.C.A strong power.D.A regular habit.38.What can we learn about the author from the text?A.She acts in a strange way.B.She wants to look different from others.

In 1879, Oxford University in England asked Prof. James Murray to serve as editor for what was to be the most ambitious dictionary in the history of the English language. It would include every English word possible and would give not only the definition but also the history of the word and quotations(引文)showing how it was used.This was a huge task, so Murray had to find volunteers from Britain, the United States, and the British colonies to search every newspaper, magazine, and book ever written in English. Hundreds of volunteers responded, including William Chester Minor. Dr. Minor was an American surgeon who had served in the Civil War and was now living in England. He gave his address as “Broadmoor, Crowthorne, Berkshire,” 50 miles from Oxford.Minor joined the army of volunteers sending words and quotations to Murray. Over the next 17 years, he became one of the staff's most valued contributors.But he was also a mystery. In spite of many invitations, he would always decline to visit Oxford. So in 1897, Murray finally decided to travel to Crowthorne himself. When he arrived, he found Minor locked in a booklined cell at the Broadmoor Asylum(精神病院)for the Criminally Insane.Murray and Minor became friends, sharing their love of words. Minor continued contributing to the dictionary, sending in more than 10,000 submissions in 20 years. Murray continued to visit Minor regularly, sometimes taking walks with him around the asylum grounds.In 1910, Minor left Broadmoor for an asylum in his native America. Murray was at the port to wave goodbye to his remarkable friend.Minor died in 1920, seven years before the first edition of the Oxford English Dictionary was completed. The 12 volumes defined 414,825 words, and thousands of them were contributions from a very scholarly and devoted asylum patient.31. According to the text, the first Oxford English Dictionary________.A. came out before Minor diedB. was edited by an American volunteerC. included the English words invented by MurrayD. was intended to be the most ambitious English dictionary32. How did Dr. Minor contribute to the dictionary?A. He helped Murray to find hundreds of volunteers.B. He sent newspapers, magazines and books to Murray.C. He provided a great number of words and quotations.D. He went to England to work with Murray.33. Why did Dr. Minor refuse to visit Oxford?A. He was shut in an asylum.B. He lived far from Oxford.C. He was busy writing a book.D. He disliked traveling.34. Prof. Murray and Dr. Minor became friends mainly because________.A. they both served in the Civil WarB. they had a common interest in wordsC. Minor recovered with the help of MurrayD. Murray went to America regularly to visit MinorBThings have really changed. Not only is the military standing tall again, but it is staging a remarkable comeback in the quantity and quality of the recruits(新兵). Recruits, once denounced by antiwar students as “baby killers” and barred from (从……扫除)campuses, are welcomed ever at famous universities. ROTC (美国后备军官训练队) programs that once faltered are flourishing again. The military academies are enjoying a steady increase in applications.Certainly, the depressed economy has increased the allure(诱惑) of the jobs, technical training and generous student loans offered by the military. Students know that if they go in and become, say, nuclear weapons specialists, they can_come_out_and demand a salary of $60,000 a year. Military salaries, while not always competitive with those paid for comparable jobs in the private sector, are more than respectable, especially considering the wide array of benefits that are available: free medical service, room and board, and PX (Post Exchange) privileges. Monthly pay for a recruit is $574; for a sergeant with four years' service it is $906; for a major with ten years' service it is $2,305. The welfare has helped win over the TV generation. Kids are walking down the school hallways chanting “Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines”. There is a retu rn to the view that the military is anhonorable profession. The days of a judge telling a miscreant to join the Army or go to jail are over. Recruiting for all four services combined is running at 101%of authorized goals. And the retention rate is now so high that the services are refusing some reenlistment applications and reducing annual recruiting target.The military academics are also enjoying halcyon years,attracting more and betterqualified students. Compared to private colleges, where tuition and expenses have been climbing sharply, the service schools are a real bargain: not only is tuition free, but recruits get allowances of up to $500 a month. It is reported 12,300 applicants are for the 1,450 positions in this year's freshman class. Military academies are now just as selective as any of the best universities in the country. Nationwide, ROTC enrollment exceeds 105,000,a 64% increase over the 1974 figure. In the mid 70's, the ROTC students refused to wear their uniforms on campus because they suffered all sorts of ridicule, if they did. Now if they wear them to class no one looks at them twice.35.What is the main idea of this passage?A.The military is in.B.The military is up.C.The military is down.D.The military is on.36.What was the attitude of the students in 1970s towards the military?A.Approval. B.Indifferent.C.Distaste. D.Scolding.37.The underlined phrase “come out” is closest in meaning to “______”.A.become visibleB.begin to growC.be made publicD.gain a certain position38.Which one of the following is NOT mentioned as a reason to attract students?A.Free tuition.B.Spacious room.C.Considerate allowance.D.Technical training.Ⅳ.短文改错Nowadays more and more people are concerning about their health, but how to keep health? First, it is necessary to take any exercise every day.Research shows that get plenty of exercise makes the heart beat fast and the lungs work harder.Second, eat more fruits, vegetable and less meat.Third, getting rid of bad habits as smoking and drinking is also important way to keep healthy. Smoking and alcohol drinking injures one's health a great deal, and therefore should be given up. If people follow these three ways of keeping fit, they'll great improve their health.。

Usually I go for a long run, but today I choose my favorite exercise DVD,Insanity.Sweat pours down my face and into my eyes. My heart races as I force my body to finish each movement. As I near the end of the exercise,I feel extremely tired, but a smile is on my face. It’s not a smile because the DVD is over, but a smile of success from pushing my body to its extreme limit.Some people enjoy shopping, smoking, food, work, or even chocolate. But I need exercise to get through each day. Some shake heads when they see me run through the town. Others get hurt when I refuse to try just one bite of their grandmother’s ch ocolate cake.

National agricultural census (普查) figures show that the fastest-growing group of farmers is the part over 65. Merrigan is afraid the average age will be even higher when the 2012 statistics are completed.a former college professor, is making stops at universities across the country in hopes of encouraging more students to think about careers in agriculture. Aside from trying to stop the graying of America's farmers, her work is made tougher by a recent blog posting that put agriculture at No. 1 on a list of “useless” college degrees. Top federal agriculture officials are talking about the posting, and it has the attention of agricultural organizations across the country. “There couldn't be anything that's more incorrect,” Merrigan said. “We know that there aren't enough qualified graduates to fill the jobs that are out there in American agriculture.” a growing world population that some experts predict will require 70% more food production by 2050, she said. “I truly believe we're at a golden age of agriculture.
