The weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health. There are plenty of “energy drinks” on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!

But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine(咖啡堿)in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much. Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee(IOC) has limited(限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.

1.Many people like drinking energy drinks because of the following EXCEPT that ______.

A. they have beautiful colors and cool names

B. they can keep them awake and better at sports

C. they have lots of caffeine

D. they are said to be helpful to health

2.The underlined word “discouraged” can be replaced(替換) with ______.

A. encouraged B. disliked

C. helped D. stopped

3.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? ______

A. What’s the Use of Energy Drinks?

B. What’s That in Energy Drinks?

C. Who Can Drink Energy Drinks?

D. Why Can’t We Buy Energy Drinks?

The Spring Festival is supposed to be a period of time entirely for family reunion. However, as people’s enthusiasm for digital hongbao increased, the amount of the time they spend with family members during the holiday decreases. There has been widespread criticism(批評(píng)) over digital hongbao that it has alienated family reunion.

“I used to discuss programs in the Spring Festival Gala(春晚) with my family members, but this year, I hardly had the time to watch the gala because I was staring at my cellphone all the time,” said Kang, a 30–year old radio station editor. “I went to Karaoke with my cousins during the holiday, and I was grasping digital hongbao the whole time, even when I was singing Karaoke.”

“On the last day of the holiday, I started to regret spending too much time on these digital hongbao. Therefore, instead of fighting for hongbao, I watched TV with my mom that night. I left home feeling sorry! I should have spent more time with my parents.”

But Kang said regret came with a sense of achievement when he managed to bring classmates together.

“Next year, I will still play the game, but with less money and for a smaller amount of time,” Kang said.

Dong Chenyu, a teacher from Beijing Foreign Studies University, said it unfair to blame hongbao for destroying family reunion.

“When television was invented, people accused it of standing in the way of face-to-face human communication. The same accusation came up on telephone and text message services when they were first invented. The same goes with digital hongbao,” Dong said.

“It does nothing but offers a new way of human communication. The rest is people’s choice. As long as no one expects to earn money from this and takes this as a means of gambling(賭博), it’s a good way to improve human connections,” Dong said.

1.The underlined word “alienated” in Paragraph 1 most probably means ________.

A. separatedB. reservedC. encouragedD. improved

2.How did Mr.Kang feel about digital hongbao according to Paragraph 2?

A. He felt regretted in spending too much money.

B. He had a strong preference for it.

C. He was happy to spend too much of his time.

D. He felt a sense of guilty in getting it.

3.What can we infer from what Mr. Dong said about digital hongbao ________.

A. it will bring us trouble in holiday reunion

B. it will be out of fashion soon in future

C. Mr. Dong is in favor of the digital hongbao

D. lots of people will use it to earn money

4.What’s mainly described in the passage?

A. The Spring Festival is the best time for family reunion.

B. Digital Hongbao is a double-edged sword.

C. People’s holiday enthusiasm has decreased.

D. Digital hongbao has become a popular way to make money.

Many of us are so busy with work, school and home life, which often cause there is no time left to do something that you enjoy. What follows are some ways to carve out that essential time you need to slow down, enjoy life and relax yourself.

Monthly Treat. 2. It could be on your lunch break, a weekend or it could be leaving work early. Maybe you get a spa treatment, go to see a movie, a haircut, play golf or whatever treat you’re always thinking about but rarely get to. Schedule it in and it will happen!

Buy Tickets in Advance. Sports, theatre, concerts or any other event you would enjoy. Schedule the plans with a friend later. 3.

4. Huh? Yes, many of us stay at work late on a regular basis. If this is you, make it a point to leave work exactly on time at least once a week, if not more. And then enjoy that time! Leave work at work.

Join a Group. Here are some ideas of groups that can allow you some time away from work and home: singing group, gardening group, astronomy society, book club, biking clubs, ski club, etc. What are you interested in? Strike while the iron is hot. 5. If you can’t find a club, consider starting one yourself!
