Cats are creatures of habit. They like to go to sleep about the same time every day and for a certain length of time. They seem to have a natural clock inside them that tells them when to sleep.
Cats increase their regular sleep with occasional cat naps (打盹). Some experts feel that humans could also benefit from this habit. Cat naps help to build up energy in the body. They are also a good way to get rid of trouble ! Since cats have the same moods ( 情绪) as humans, some experts believe that people can improve their moods. People might become happier.
A number of famous people have copied cats by taking cat naps during the day. The naps would usually last from 15 to 30 minutes.
Winston Churchill took cat naps. So did Presidents Harry Truman, John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B.
Johnson. These famous men were known for their energy. They were also able to work long hours, often into the night. Napping was their secret.
Perhaps more people learn from cats and take naps to feel better and live longer!

A.
People should take their naps secretly.
B.
Cats have the same moods as people.
C.
Some famous people take cat naps.

Life gets noisier every day and very few people can free from noise of some sort or another. It doesn´ t matter where you live--in the middle of a modern city, or a faraway village--the chances that you will be disturbed by jet aero planes, transistor radios, oil powered engines, etc. , are almost everywhere. We seem to be getting used to noise, too. Some people feel quite lonely without back-ground music while they are working.
Scientific tests have shown that total silence can be very frightening experience for human beings. However, some people enjoy listening to pop music which is very loud, and this can do harm to their eardrums(耳鼓). The noise level in some disco is far above the usual safety level for heavy industrial areas.
One recent report about noise and concentration(专心,) suggested that although a lot of people say that any noise disturbs their concentration, what really affects their ability to concentrate is a change in the level of noise. It goes on to say that a background noise, which doesn´ t change too much (music, for example) lnay even help people to concentrate.

If you are writing or studying, it makes very much difference where the light comes from. People who use books and pens every day have to be especially careful about the way the light shines on their work.
Every house gets its light either from daylight through the windows--which is the best to use--or from lamps or electricity; but whichever kind of light it is, the way it shines toward our book or work is a matter of great importance to the eyes.
Take a book, sit with your back toward the window, and try to read. Your shadow(影子) falls all over the page and makes it almost as bad for your eyes as if you were in a dark room. Now turn around and face the window. The page is in the shadow again, while the bright light is in your eyes.
Try sitting with your right side toward the window. This is very well for reading, but if you were writing, the shadow of your hand would fall across the page and bother(打搅) you a little.
There is just one other way:sit with your left side to the window. Now everything is perfect for reading and for writing, too.
Whatever kind of light is in the room, the rule about the right to sit is always the same.
When you sit with your face towards the window, .
A.
your shadow falls on your book
B.
your book is in a shadow
C.
the light is still dark
D.
the light is on your page

The sea is very bi9.Look at a map of the world.There is less land than sea.The sea covers three quarters of the world.
The sea is very deep in some places.There is one spot,near Japan,where the sea is nearly11 kilonetres deep.The highest mountain in the world is about 9 kilometres high.If that mountain were Dut into the sea at that place,there would be 2 kilometres of water above it.
If you have swum in the sea, you know that it is salty. You can taste the salt. Rivers, which flow into the sea, carry salt from the land into the sea. Some parts of the sea are less salty than other parts. There is one sea, called the Dead Sea, which is very salty. Because it is very salty, swimmers cannot sink! Fish cannot live in the Dead Sea.
In most parts of the sea, there are plenty of fishes and plants. Some live near the top of the sea.
Others live deep down. There are also millions of tiny living things that float in the sea. These floating things are very small. It is hard to see them. Many fish live by eating them.
The sea can be very cold. Divers, who dive deep down in the sea, know this. On the top the water may be warm. When the diver goes downwards, the sea becomes colder and colder.
Another thing happens. When the diver goes deeper, the water above presses down on him. It squeezes him. Then the diver has to wear clothes made of metal.

A.

The ordinary family in colonial North America was primarily concerned with sheer physical survival and beyond that, is own economic prosperity. Thus, children were valued in terms of their productivity, and they assumed the role of producer quite early. Until they fulfilled this role, their position in the structure of the family was one of subordination ( 从属), and their psychological needs and capacities received little consideration.
As the society became more complex, the status of children in the family and in the society became more important. In the complex, technological society that the United States has become,each member must fulfill a number of personal and occupational roles and be in constant contact with a great many other members. Consequently, viewing children as potentially acceptable members of society means that they are regarded more as people in their own right than as utilitarian organisms.
This acceptance of children as equal participants in the contemporary family is reflected in the variety of statutes protecting the rights of children and in the social public welfare programs devoted exclusively to their well-being.
This new way of children and the increasing contact between the members of society has also resulted in a great interest in child-rearing techniques. People today spend a considerable portion of their time on the proper way to bring up children. It is now possible to influence the details of the socialization of another person´ s child by spreading the principle of current and fashionable theories and methods of child-rearing.
Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.
The Child as a Utilitarian Organism.
B.
The Development of Cultural Values.
C.
The Children of Colonial North America.
D.
The Place of Children in American Society.

A young woman rode with her new husband in a wagon(四轮马车).They came to a log cabin (小木屋).The man shouted and a little boy came running out of the cabin.Sarah, the young woman, got down from the wagon, opened wide her arms and held the boy close.
"Hello, Abe Lincoln," she said."I think we'll be good friends."
The new mother with the smiling face went to work at once.She washed Abe and his sister and tidied(弄整齐) their hair.And that night she threw away the boy's mattress(床垫) of leaves and gave him a soft mattress and enough blankets to keep him warm at night.
Sarah wove cloth and made new shirts for Abe.She made him new deerskin trousers and even deerskin shoes.
Maybe, if she hadn' t come to the cabin, he wouldn' t have lived to be a man.When Abe' s father told him not to go to school any more and help on the farm, Sarah took Abe' s part against his father.Abe would rather read than eat, and when his father told him to stop, Sarah said, " Let the boy read."
In 1530 the day came when Abe would leave home to work in New Salem.For the last time she had taken Abe's part against his father.For the last time she had kept the cabin quiet so that Abe could read.
More than twenty years later,when Abe,whohad then become famous,was going to make a speech in a nearby town, Sarah went there just to watch him.In the crowd she tried to make herself small, but he saw her, and in front of everybody, got out of his carriage and went over and put his arms around her and kissed her.Yes, that was her Abe.
"He loved me truly," she said later.
If Sarah hadn' t come to the cabin,_______.
A.
Abe' s father wouldn' t have told him not to go to school
B.
Abe wouldn' t have helped his father on the farm
C.
Abe wouldn' t have had so much time to read
D.
Abe' s father wouldn' t have told him to stop reading

Student participation(参与) in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the student in many courses.Some professors base part of the final grade on the student' s oral participation.Although there are formal lectures during which the student has a passive role (i.e., listening and taking notes),
many courses are organized around classroom discussions, student questions, and informal lectures.In graduate discussions the professor has a "manager" role and the students make presentations and lead discussions.The students do the actual teaching in these discussions.
A professor' s teaching method is another factor (因素) that determines the degree and type of student participation.Some professors prefer to control discussion while others prefer to guide the class without controlling it.Many professors encourage students to question their ideas.Students who object to the professor' s point of view should be prepared to prove their positions.
In the teaching of science and mathematics, the controlling mode of instruction is generally traditional ,with teachers presenting formal lectures and students taking notes.However, new educational trends have turned up in the humanities and social sciences in the past twenty years.Students in education, society, and history classes, for example, are often required to solve problems in groups, design
projects, make presentations, and examine case studies.Since some college or university courses are"practical" rather than theoretical ,they pay more attention to "doing" for themselves.
Which of the following sentences is true according to the passage?
A.
Student participation is not common in the classroom in many courses like society.
B.
Some professors want to control the classroom discussion.
C.
Some professors usually want the students to take part in the teaching of science and mathematics.
D.
New educational trends have turned up in teaching of natural sciences such as chemistry.

Lisa was running late.Lisa,25, had a lot to do at work, plus visitors on the way : her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown.But as she hurried down the subway stairs, she started to feel uncomfortably warm.By the time she got to the platform,Lisa felt weak and tired--maybe it hadn't been a good idea to give blood the night before,she thought.She rested herself against a post close to the tracks.
Several yards away,Frank,43, and his girlfriend,Jennifer, found a spot close to where the front of the train would stop.They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying.
But when he heard the scream, followed by someone yelling, " Oh, my God, she fell in!" Frank didn't hesitate.He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails."No!
Not you!" his girlfriend screamed after him.
She was right to be alarmed.By the time Frank reached Lisa, he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming.The train was about 20 seconds from the station.
It was hard to lift her.She was just out.But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the arms and drag her away from the edge.That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness ,felt herself being pulled along the ground,and saw someone else holding her purse.
Lisa thought she'd been robbed.A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head.And she tried to talk but she couldn't, and that was when she realized how much pain she was in.
Police and fire officials soon arrived, and Frank told the story to an officer.Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40-minute train ride downtown--just as he had been seconds after the rescue,which made her think about her reaction at the time. "I saw the train coming and I was thinking he was going to die," she explained.
Why did Jennifer try to stop her boyfriend?
A.
Because they would miss their train.
B.
Because he didn't see the train coming.
C.
Because she was sure Lisa was hard to lift.
D.
Because she was afraid the train would kill him.

It was Sharing Day! The teacher had asked the students to bring something interesting to class.
Jimmy found the little box he and Dad had made.Inside was a piece of rock, a sand dollar and a shark (鲨鱼) tooth.Nobody could have anything as interesting as these !
In class, Jimmy waited anxiously, hoping to be called on first by the teacher.But Kara was first.
She held up a sand dollar.Jimmy's eyes grew big.
"I found this on the beach, "Kara said."It' s interesting.The little holes that make the sand dollar look like a flower are breathing holes.See all the needles? They help the sand dollar move and dig into the sand."
Jimmy was a little uneasy.Oh, well, he still had his rock and shark tooth.
Then Mark stood up. "This is my favorite rock, called pumice (浮石)." Then Mark dropped the rock into a glass of water."Look ! Pumice is the only rock that floats !"
Jimmy put up his hand and waved, but the teacher called on Justin instead.
"I found this shark tooth in Hawaii last Christmas, "Justin said.
The class was excited, but Jimmy lowered his head."Sharks have rows of teeth.Every time a shark loses a tooth, another one takes its place."Justin passed the tooth around.
Jimmy heard the teacher call him.He stood on one foot and then the other."Well, ah, see...my treasure box is interesting ! It was just a piece of wood until Dad and I cut it into pieces and finally made a box out of it.It smells good, reminding us of camping."
"What's inside?" asked Lisa.
Jimmy opened his box."A sand dollar, a piece of pumice and a shark tooth."
His classmates' mouths dropped open.The teacher looked at the objects in the box and smiled.
"Now that' s interesting ! "he said.
What does a sand dollar look like according to Kara?
A.
A hole.
B.
A needle.

Nineteen-year-old Melissa Goza couldn' t figure out why she failed to get a bank card time and time again.It only became clear when she was unsuccessful while looking for a new job in a Target store:Three different people are using her Social Security number (社会保障号).
Target is one of the companies using credit (信用) reports when hiring new workers.At least one credit report didn't favor Goza in getting the job.A very low credit rate (评价) was under Goza' s Social Security number.Target, as required by law, told Goza why the company couldn' t offer her the job.
Sacramento lawyer Jennifer Shaw, a specialist in workplace law, says credit reports are just one more way employers use to find dishonest job seekers."I think we need to know that, right now, there' s more information out there.And that means, there' s more information that can be used against us, "said Shaw.
Goza' s dark cloud may, however, have a silver lining.Target told her she' d be considered again for the job if she could get a letter from the Social Security Department proving that she' s the right owner of the Social Security number.
Now that Goza knows she' s suffered from other people' s wrongdoings, she will order copies of her credit reports to see what she can do to put things right.
What does Goza have to do next?
A.
Clear up her wrong credit reports.
B.
Get a new Social Security number.
C.
Find a job in another company.
D.
Apply for a new bank card.

When you go on your job interview (面试) , be sure to dress well, be on time, do your research and NEVER ask any of the following questions:
1. "How quickly could I be promoted (晋升)?"
An employer first of all wants an employee to be happy with the position they have. Ambition( 抱负) is good, but there is a time and place to discuss promotion, and it´ s not during an interview.
2. "Will I be able to work from home?"
This is basically telling your future boss--before you´ ve even started--that you´ re too lazy to come into the office.
3. "How much vacation time does this position offer?"
Although this could be asked, this is the type of information you should get AFTER you´ ve been offered a position and not before.
4. "Will I have to work with a team?"
Almost all jobs need some kind of teamwork, so any sign that you are not a good team player will leave you with unfavorable points in an employer´s eyes.
5. "Does this position come with a handsome pay?"
The pay is usually discussed after a position has been offered. If an employer offers this subject,feel free to discuss it. Otherwise, try not to look like you are interested only in things for your owngood. An employer will more readily hire someone interested in bettering themselves AND the company as a whole.
When can you offer the subject of pay?
A.
Before you ask about teamwork.
B.
After you get the job.
C.
At the end of your interview.
D.
At the beginning of your interview.

You know what a hotel is, of course. And perhaps, you also know what a condo is—a residential(居住的) building divided into separate units that are owned by different people. What you may not know is that in some U. S. cities, the two have come together into something called a "condo hotel".
Some condo hotels can now be found in beach and mountain towns and a few small cities. However, none is more famous than the great 105-year-old Plaza Hotel in New York, on Fifth Avenue across from Central Park. The Plaza closed for repair in 2005. When it reopened two years later, more than half of it had been changed into one of these modern condo hotels.
Here´ s how it works : You buy what equals to an apartment (公寓). If it´ s at The Plaza, it will cost you between $1.5 million and $9 million. So you own a part of the building. But there´ s stone inconvinience. You may stay there no more than 120 days a year. The rest of the time, the hotel´ s workers can book guests into your place ,just as they would in the regular hotel´ s rooms. So if you´ re lucky and rich, you can now live in really special quarters up to almost one third of the year, while others pay off your mortgage (房贷) the rest of the year.
So far, a great many of the nation´ s condo hotel units have been purchased not by rich people but by richer companies, including foreign ones. They want a nice place for their bosses to stay when they´ re in town or working late at the office.
