The weather is getting hotter and you’ll be getting thirstier playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you pour down your throat. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health.

There are plenty of so-called energy drinks on the market. Most of them have an attractive colour and cool name. Their nutrition list also contains various things from vitamins to ginseng. Sounds great!

But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks contain high levels of caffeine. These drinks are typically 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 raises your heartbeat. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited their use. The amount of caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as high as in a strong cup of coffee or strong tea.

Research by Australian scientists has found that many teenagers are affected by caffeine. The results of their survey show that 27 percent of boys aged 8-12 take in more caffeine than their parents.

There are potential health risks linked to energy drinks. Just one can of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart attacks.

When I was nine yean old, I loved to go fishing with my dad. But the only thing that wasn’t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish white I couldn’t catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, “Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish”, I remember being even more upset then because, “I’m not a fish!”I didn’t know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does?

As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don’t have any eyelids(眼皮)and the sun hum their eyes... The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them.

When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, “We all need to think like salespeople.” But it didn’t completely make sense. My dad never once said, “If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman.” What he said was, “You need to think like a fish.” Years later, with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters.

1.Why was the author upset in the fishing trips when he was nine?

A. He could not catch a fish.

B. His father was not patient with him.

C. His father did not teach him fishing.

D. He could not influence a fish as his father did.

2.Why did the author’s father really mean?

A. in deep water on sunny days

科目：高中英語 來源：湖北省武漢市武昌區(qū)2017屆高三5月調(diào)研考試英語試卷 題型：閱讀理解

Nothing succeeds like success, as every parent of a straight-A student knows, but trying to highlight academic excellence by telling your child, "You're so smart," may be counterproductive（負(fù)效的）. Telling kids they're smart strengthens the idea that intelligence is a genetic gift rather than a skill that can be developed.

In a recent study, researchers at Michigan State University looked at 123 children who were about 7. The team assessed the children to determine whether they had a "growth mindset（思維模式）" (believing that you can work harder to get smarter), or a "fixed mindset"(believing that your intelligence is unable to change). They then asked the children to complete a fast-paced computer accuracy task while their brain activity was recorded. In the task, children played a game, helping a zookeeper capture escaped animals by pressing the space bar when an animal showed up in their screen—unless it was a group of three chimps. During the recording, researchers noted that brain activity spiked within a half-second after making a mistake, as children became aware of their error and paid closer attention to what went wrong. The larger the brain response, the more the children focused on the error.

Based on the data they collected, the researchers concluded that children with a "growth mindset" were much more likely to have a larger brain response after making a mistake, and in turn were more likely to improve their performance by paying closer attention to the task after making an error.

For parents, the lessons are clear: don't pay compliments(贊揚(yáng)) that suggest that intelligence is fixed. If a child hands you an A+ test, don't say, "You're so smart!" Instead say, "Wow, that studying really paid off!" Note the effort, not the intelligence. Second, focus on using errors to work together and learn. "Many parents and teachers shy away from addressing a child's mistakes, telling them "It's OK. You'll get it next time." without giving them the opportunity to figure out what went wrong." Dr. Schroder says. Here are additional ways you can help enhance your child's education.

1.What can learn about children's mindset from the study?

A. Children are born with a fixed or growth mindset.

B. Children with a fixed mindset pay no attention to mistakes.

C. Children with a growth mindset are more likely to make progress.

D. Children with a growth mindset can catch more animals in the game.

2.Which of the following has the closest meaning with the underlined word in Paragraph 2?

A. started B. stopped

C. paused D. rose

3.What should parents say to children's performance according to the passage?

A. "You are so clever!" for excellence.

B. "It's not good enough." for excellence.

C. "You can benefit from it." for a mistake.

D. "It's OK. Forget about it." for a mistake.

4.What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Never Call Your Kid Smart

B. Always Be Strict with Your Kid

C. How to Communicate with Your Kid

D. How to Comment on Your Kid's Performance

More than 30,000 people went to the White House on Monday for the 136th Easter Egg Roll (復(fù)活節(jié)滾彩蛋). President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama held the event by inviting thousands of kids to color and look for eggs. The theme of the day was “Hop Into Healthy, Swing Into Shape.” It was part of the First Lady’s “Let’s Move!” program to reduce obesity rates (肥胖率) among American kids. Mrs. Obama spoke to young reporters about her goal to get children to eat right and keep moving.

“We are working to make sure that kids born today grow up healthy, learn how to have balanced meals, and get more physical activity into their lives,” she said.

Mrs. Obama said she wants children across the nation to understand that “exercise isn’t just hard work, it’s play. If you’re running around with your dog, you’re getting exercise. If you walk up the stairs, that’s exercise. But if you’re sitting in front of the TV or on a computer game, you’re not exercising.”

The First Lady said that for kids who have balanced meals most of the time, having a special snack, like chocolate, will not hurt. “And if you are active, you can splurge (揮霍) a little more,” she said. Mrs. Obama’s favorite “splurge food” is French fries. But she balances her splurging by exercising almost every day. She loves to play tennis and she practices yoga.

“A lot of kids look up to athletes, and I think it’s important for athletes to share their good habits,” Mrs. Obama said. “Kids aren’t just going to wake up and be LeBron James. He’s practicing and eating right and working out and training. Our athletes can be really good messengers to kids who look up to them — they can say to kids, ‘If you really want to be like me, then you really do need to eat your vegetables.’”

1.The purpose of the “Let’s Move!” program is to _____.

A. help kids keep healthy

B. train more young reporters

C. encourage kids to eat more eggs

D. invite kids to visit the White House

2.In Mrs. Obama’s opinion, exercise _____.

A. can be fun to do

B. means hard work

C. should be done outdoors

D. requires special equipment

3.“Splurge food” is allowed to be eaten when _____.

A. you don’t hurt yourself

B. you have a special snack

C. you never eat French fries

D. you eat right and stay active

4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A. All kids want to be LeBron James.

B. It is very easy to form good habits.

C. Athletes can set a good example for kids.

D. Kids like the messages the athletes give them.

5.In which part of a newspaper will the text most probably appear?
