• 5．Last week，we talked about the conflict between sleepy teenagers and early morning classes．Many people commented on our website．
     For example，Damla Ece in Turkey wrote：I agree with the idea of starting lessons later so teenagers can feel better in the morning．But sleeping more than seven hours can be wasting time for students．
     Tran in Vietnam disagreed：I think teenagers，on average，need eight to ten hours of sleep every day．It's useless to try to force them to concentrate while they can't concentrate．
     Afshin Heydari from Iran wrote：Schools should start early to avoid heavy traffic later in the morning．
     And Suze from Jordan wrote：When I was a teenager，I enjoyed taking my courses as early as possible．That way I could find a long time in the day to do my own activities．
     But Azra from Kyrgyzstan said：The reason why schools start early here is a lack of classrooms．
     And Joruji in Japan wrote：When I was a teenager，I used to get up before six to go to school，which was far from home，and I don't remember having problems．I think nowadays the Internet，TV games and cell phones make teens go to sleep later．
     Thirty-year-old Kika in Spain said：In my opinion，young people are very lazy．
     But Dennis Jin disagreed：For high school students in China，we must reach class at 6：20 in the morning and be back home usually at 10：00 in the evening．Then we'll have some extra schoolwork to do．Can you imagine how long could we sleep every day？
     Teenagers are not the only ones who suffer．Kathy in Canada wrote：My daughter likes complaining about everything in the morning，and I know that this is from lack of sleep．I wish schools should change their start time to 8：30 or 9：00 in the morning．
     And Naima Star in Libya wrote：Getting up so early in the morning and leaving the warm bed is so difficult，especially in the cold weather．It reminds me of that old song："It's nice to get up in the morning，but it's nicer to stay in bed．"
  
  （1）The passage is most likely to be taken from

  ．
  A．a personal letter
  B．a travel guide
  C．a geography book
  D．a radio broadcast
  （2）About teenagers' sleeping time，which people belong to one group？

  
  A．Joruji，Tran and Kika．
  B．Tran，Kathy and Dennis Jin．
  C．Suze，Kathy and Afshin Heydari．
  D．Suze，Tran and Afshin Heydari．
  （3）From Dennis Jin's words，we can see he expressed his

  ．
  A．amazement

  C．determination
  D．dissatisfaction
  （4）While giving his view，Suze took

  into consideration．

• 6．Lichens （地衣） Lichens look like splashes of paint left behind by a careless painter.Unlike many plants，they do not require soil to grow.They grow on trunk of trees in steaming tropical rain forests，on farmers' fenceposts，on the bricks of big-city buildings，and on old gravestones.Lichens can tolerate extremes of climate.They grow on rocks in hot springs，on wind-swept mountaintops，and on stones in the driest deserts.In the Arctic，lichens are the principal source of food for reindeer.Whole mountainsides in Antarctica appear green and orange because of the presence of lichens；they are one of the few plants that can survive there.
     They are among the oldest of known plants.Recently，scientists discovered lichen fossils on a rock in a mine in southwest China that date back 600 million years.When conditions become harsh，lichens become dormant （休眠）.If there is not enough moisture，they simply dry up，but a short rain or even a heavy dew gives them new life.When growing on rock surfaces，lichens produce acids that dissolve （溶解） the minerals，contributing to the process of weathering by which rocks are slowly turned to soil.This property enables lichens to be pioneers.They appear on barren rock rubbed clean by glaciers，fires，lava flows，or floods，beginning the process of soil formation that allows mosses （苔蘚） and other plants to later take root.But，despite their hardiness，lichens are extremely sensitive to airborne particles （顆粒）.That's why they serve as an early warning system for air pollution.
     It is the acids lichens produce that give them their distinctive colors.Lichens are often spoken of in the same breath as mosses，and some lichens are even called mosses，but true mosses are all distinctively green，whereas lichens appear in many vivid colors.At one time，acids from lichens were used to make dyes，such as the purple dye，the blue dye，and the red dye，and they are sometimes still used that way today.Some lichens，such as oakmoss，contain oils that produce fragrant odors used in scented soaps，cosmetics and perfumes.Some lichens are also known to have antibiotic properties to kill bacteria.
     So definite are the from，color，and characteristics of these organisms that for hundreds of years lichens were constantly under scientists' microscope.
  
  （1）What characteristic of lichens is mainly talked about in paragraph 1？

  
  A．They grow only on rock surfaces.
  B．They live primarily in cold places.
  C．They have adapted to a wide variety of environments.
  D．They live in remote locations far from human communities.
  （2）The author refer to lichens as pioneers in paragraph 2 because they

  .
  A．have their primitive structure
  B．grow in areas before other plants do
  C．are found in remote parts of the world
  D．develop so early in the history of the planet
  （3）According to paragraph 3，humans use lichens in the following ways EXCEPT

  .
  A．as a means of coloring clothing
  B．as a type of medicine
  C．as a source of food
  D．BS an ingredient in perfume
  （4）Which of the following cases would be probably dealt with in the next paragraph？

  
  A．Lichens are important in Canada because of their abundance in the north.
  B．Extracts of lichens were sold as herbal medicines to facilitate hair growth.
  C．Glacier Park's vast array of lichens indicate relatively good air quality.
  D．A German botanist first found lichens are composed of two life forms.

• 7．I was doing some Christmas shopping in a toy store and decided to look at Barbie dolls for my nieces.A nicely dressed little girl was excitedly looking through the Barbie dolls as well.As she was looking，a little boy came to the Pokemon toys.He was dressed neatly，but his clothes were obviously old.He was with his father as well，and kept picking up the Pokemon video toys.Each time he picked one up and looked at his father，his father shook his head and said， "No."
     The little girl had chosen her Barbie.However，she stopped and was watching them.Rather dejectedly，the boy had to give up the Pokemon toys and choose something else.The little girl put her Barbie back on the shelf，and ran over to the Pokemon toys.She excitedly picked up one and raced towards the checkout.I picked up my purchases and got in line behind them.Then，much to the little girl's delight，the little boy and his father got in line behind me.After the toy was paid for and bagged，the little girl handed it back to the cashier and whispered something in her ear.The cashier smiled and put the package under the counter.
     I paid for my purchases and was rearranging things when the little boy came up to the cashier.The cashier checked his purchases and said， "Congratulations，you are my hundredth customer today，and you win a prize!" With that，she handed the little boy the Pokemon toys，and he could only stare in surprise.It was exactly what he had wanted!
     The little girl and her father had been standing at the doorway during all of this.Then they walked out.As I walked back to my car，I heard the father ask his daughter why she had done that.I'll never forget what she said to him. "Daddy，didn't Grandparents want me to buy something that would make me happy？" He said， "Of course they did，honey." To which the little girl replied， "Well，I just did!"
     I feel very shocked to have witnessed the true spirit of Christmas in that toy store，in the form of a little girl who understands more about the meaning of this festival than most adults I know.
  
  （1）The underlined word "dejectedly" in the second paragraph probably means

  .
  A．disappointedly
  B．delightedly
  C．excitedly
  D．unexpectedly
  （2）How did the little boy get the Pokemon toys？

  
  A．His father bought him the Poknemon toys.
  B．Fortunately，he was the hundredth customer and won the Poknemon toys.
  C．The little girl bought the Poknemon toys for him.
  D．The cashier felt sympathy for the little boy and gave him the Poknemon toys.
  （3）What did the little girl mean when saying "Daddy，didn't Grandparents want me to buy something that would make me happy？"

  
  A．Her Grandparents wanted her to be happy.
  B．The Poknemon toys made her happy.
  C．Making the little boy happy made her happy.
  D．Her Grandparents hoped that she could help others.
  （4）Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage？

  
  A．the story happened before Christmas.
  B．The little boy had not enough money to buy the Poknemon toys.
  C．The author was deeply moved by the behavior of the little girl.
  D．Although the little girl liked the Poknemon toys very much，she gave them to the boy.

• 9．Reading books is rewarding.Last year I read 47 books.It's a number I'm pretty proud of. （1）

  Here's how to give them more of your time in the coming months.Set a goal.Goodreads （an excellent app for booklovers） has a function to set a "Reading Challenge for yourself.Not only in the app a great way to keep track of the books you read in a given year，but the challenge is also motivating.Last year，I set myself a target of 38 books since I had read 35 books the year before. （2）

  It was pretty cool to overcome my own challenge.Read what you love.To get into the reading habit，you need to read books that really attract you.For example，I love thrillers.I feel relaxed every time I read such novels.But when reading some other types of novels，I often feel tired and sleepy.Even though I'm fond of reading books，I know how easy it can be to stop reading if I don't have an interesting book. （3）

  Sneak your reading time.There're many 10- to 20-minute gaps（間隙） in the day when you could be reading.I read when I'm waiting at the bank，or when I'm taking the train or other means of transportation. （4）

  And I never waste time playing on my phone when I could be reading. （5）

  Some people might actually need to put reading in their day-planner to get it done，and if that's you，then do it.I love the satisfaction of checking off things on my daily to-do list at the end of the day.
  
  A.Schedule it.
  B.Listen to some books.
  C.But I ended up reading 47 books.
  D.So do you want to read more books？
  E.Put your phone down，and pick up a book.
  F.I am even reading when I go to pick up my take-out.
  G.So next time before reading，find a book you're super-excited about.
