【題目】When my mom and dad said that we could adopt a couple of cats，I jumped at the chance to have some lovely animals around the house. So we went to the Humane Society where there were a lot of animals up for adoption. The first thing I noticed was that there was not a lot of room for the animals and not a lot of supplies to care for them. Even though they didn’t have much，the people who worked there tried to care about the animals. Still，it seemed they had no enough food and medicine to keep the animals healthy.

My family and I finally decided to adopt two cats we named Sox and Sierra. We went up to the front desk to sign the papers for them，and that’s when I noticed a box on the counter. The Humane Society was hoping to get enough donations to buy more supplies for the animals and also build a new building to help more animals.

Later that day my mom and I went shopping，and as we were walking through the parking lot at the store，I noticed a green piece of paper not far from our car. It was kind of wet，but it looked like it could be a dollar bill，so I walked over and picked it up. It wasn’t a dollar bill－it was a twenty-dollar bill!

When I got home，I dried it off and thought about what to do with it. I considered spending it on a toy and a lot of other things. Right then，Sox climbed up onto my lap，and I knew what I was going to do with the money.

I asked my mom to take me back to the Humane Society so that I could put the money in the donation box. The lady at the counter thanked me，and I felt really good about what I did.

【答案】【1】 B

【2】 C

【解析】【1】根據(jù)第一段第1句“...I jumped at the chance to have some lovely animals around the house”可知，作者聽說爸媽同意“我們”領(lǐng)養(yǎng)兩只貓，她為有機(jī)會(huì)擁有這可愛的動(dòng)物而興奮得跳起來，故選B項(xiàng)。

【2】根據(jù)“The first thing I noticed was that there was not a lot of room for the animals and not a lot of supplies to care for them”可知答案。

【3】根據(jù)第三段第1句“...as we were walking through the parking lot at the store”可知，作者是在路過商場(chǎng)的停車點(diǎn)時(shí)發(fā)現(xiàn)一張20美元的鈔票。

【4】根據(jù)最后一段的第1句“I asked my mom to take me back to the Humane Society so that I could put the money in the donation box”可知，作者把撿到的20美元捐獻(xiàn)給了那個(gè)慈善機(jī)構(gòu)。

【題目】A beer bottle thrown from the stands landed near Usain Bolt in the moments before the 100-meter final Sunday night in London.

As Bolt and seven other competitors ducked into their starting crouches, a bottle sailed from the first row of the stands at Olympic Stadium.

It harmlessly bounced in the lane belonging to Yohan Blake and didn’t appear to cause a distraction(分心) to the runners, who started a moment later. The thrower’s lack of distance was a blessing. Had he gathered tips from the competitors of the hammer throw(鏈球) competition, which was taking place in the infield at the same time as the 100 final, the bottle could have hit one of the competitors. It ended up landing a few feet from Blake (lane5).

Edith Bosch, a female Dutch judoka who won a bronze medal earlier during the Olympics, claimed that the man who threw the bottle was sitting near her and that she “beat” him. Whether that’s true or the hyperbole (夸張的語句) of an aggravated athlete was unclear in the minutes after the incident. Pictures show a group of Dutch athletes sitting behind the starting area.

Police took the man into custody(監(jiān)護(hù)). He will appear in court on Monday morning.

Neither Bolt nor Blake said they knew of the incident until they were informed by reporters. “I don’t know who would have done that,” Bolt said.

Gatlin was aware of it but implied it was only a slight distraction. “I didn’t know what it was,” he said, according to the BBC, “but when you’re in those blocks, the whole stadium is so quiet that you can hear a pin drop.”

【1】How many exact athletes are mentioned in the text?

A. Two B. Four C. Seven D. Eleven

【2】What is the text mainly about?

A. Usain Bolt along with seven other competitors

B. A female Dutch judoka sitting behind the starting area.

C. The lane belonging to Yohan Blake before 100 final.

D. A beer bottle thrown at Usain Bolt before 100 final.

【3】What’s the writer’s attitude towards the athletes for the 100-meter final?

A. Critical B. Doubtful

C. Disapproving D. Positive

【題目】Almost everyone feels sleepy sometimes during the daytime. Being sleepy may get in the way of your daily work，childcare，and even activities for fun. Here are some ways to improve nighttime sleep and avoid daytime sleepiness.

1．Get adequate nighttime sleep.

That may sound obvious，but many of us cut down an hour or two off our sleep time in the morning or at night to do other things. Most adults need seven to nine hours a night，and teenagers usually need a full nine hours. Block out eight or nine hours for sleep every night.

2．Keep distractions out of bed.

“Remember your bed is only for sleep，” says the scientist.“You shouldn’t read，watch TV，play video games，or use laptop computers in bed.” Don’t do your bills or have heated discussions in bed，either. They may leave you sleepless.

3．Form a good habit.

You should form a good habit of going to bed and getting up at the same time at night and in the morning，including on weekends.

4．Gradually move to an earlier bedtime.

Another way of getting into a consistent (始終如一的) schedule is to try going to bed 15 minutes earlier each night for four nights. Then stick with the last bedtime. Slowly getting used to your schedule like this usually works better than suddenly trying to go to sleep an hour earlier.

5．Set consistent，healthy mealtimes.

Regular mealtimes，not just regular sleep times，help regulate our circadian rhythms (生理節(jié)奏)．Eat a healthy breakfast and lunch on time instead of grabbing a piece of cake and coffee in the morning or a late sandwich on the run. Try to finish eating meals two or three hours before bedtime.

6．Exercise.

Regular exercise offers many benefits for sleep. Exercise generally makes it easier to fall asleep and sleep more soundly.

【1】The writer wrote this passage to ________.

A．explain why sleeping well is important

B．tell us what usually keeps us awake at night

C．tell us the harm of being sleepy in the daytime

D．give us some tips on how to avoid daytime sleepiness

【2】What does the underlined word “adequate” in Point 1 mean?

A．Enough.

B．Special.

C．Better.

D．Long.

【3】According to the writer，if we want to change our habits and go to sleep an hour earlier，we should ________.

A．try going to sleep an hour earlier suddenly

B．try getting used to our new schedule slowly

C．try getting used to our new schedule with some help

D．try going to bed 10 minutes earlier each night for six nights

【4】From Point 5 we know if we want to sleep around 10 pm，we should have supper at least by ________.

A．6∶00 p．m.

B．7∶00 p．m.

C．8∶00 p．m.

D．9∶00 p．m.
