    When US student Olivia Priedeman, 17, woke up one morning, she thought she had had a dream about making plans with a friend.
    But it wasn’t a dream. Her phone showed that during the night, Priedeman had read a text message from her friend. She did it while she was fast asleep.
    Reading and sending text messages while asleep—called “sleep texting”—is an unusual sleep behaviour, similar to sleepwalking. It’s also a growing concern(关心的事) among doctors: young people can’t live without their cell phones.
    One in three teenagers sends more than 100 text messages a day, according to the Pew Internet & American Life Project. And at least four out of five teenagers said they sleep with their phone on or near their bed.
    Elizabeth Dowdell, a professor at Villanova University in Pennsylvania, has studied sleeping texting. She said that having a phone nearby all night is a big part of the problem.
    Andrew Stiehm, a sleep medicine expert with Allina Health in Minnesota, agrees. It’s possible for the part of the brain that controls motor skills (动作技能) to wake up, while the part of the brain that controls memory and judgment(判断) may be still asleep. That’s why some people can perform basic movements ---such as walking, talking, texting or even driving—while they’re sleeping. Some of Dowdell’s students said that they’re disturbed by their nighttime texting behavior. But because sleep texting is unconscious, it’s a difficult habit to break. Dowdell said she knows of some students who wear socks on their hands to keep themselves from texting.
    Marjorie Hogan, a doctor at Hennepin County Medical Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota, suggests keeping all electronic devices(电子设备) outside the bedroom at certain times.  
    小题1:What happened to Olivia Priedeman?
    A．She sleepwalked to a friend’s house.
    B．She dreamed of making plans with a friend.

    B．Take some medicine to control the behaviour.
    C．Keep their phones out of their bedrooms while they sleep.
    D．Wear socks on their hands to stop themselves from texting.

    B．One in three teenagers has a sleep texting habit.

    试题分析：这篇短文主要介绍了睡眠短信类似于梦游”是一种不寻常的睡眠行为。形成这种行为的原因是频繁的使用手机并发信息。专家说在睡眠中大脑控制运动技能的一部分是醒着的而大脑的控制记忆和判断一部分可能还在睡觉。所以出现了睡眠短信这一现象。
    小题1:细节理解题。根据短文第二段Her phone showed that during the night, Priedeman had read a text message from her friend. She did it while she was fast asleep.描述，那不是一个梦。她的手机显示,在夜间她读过从她的朋友发来的短信。她睡着的时候做的这件事。故选D
    小题2:细节理解题。根据短文It’s possible for the part of the brain that controls motor skills (动作技能) to wake up, while the part of the brain that controls memory and judgment(判断) may be still asleep.描述，有可能大脑控制运动技能的部分醒来,而大脑的控制记忆和判断一部分可能还在睡觉。可知在睡眠中大脑控制运动技能的一部分是醒着的，故选D
    小题3:词意猜测题。根据上下文可知因为睡眠短信是无意识,所以这是一个难以打破的习惯。故选B。
    小题4:细节理解题。根据根据最后一段描述，可知医生建议在睡觉时将所有电子设备移到卧室以外。故选C。
    小题5:是非判断题。根据But because sleep texting is unconscious, it’s a difficult habit to break.可知A错误，根据 One in three teenagers sends more than 100 text messages a day,可知B错误。根据第三段可知sleep texting is similar to sleepwalkin，故D项错误，根据短文大意，故C正确，故选C。

    Having friends, and finding new friendships is an important developmental task for preteens and teens. While they have learned to play well with others during their childhood, developing independent friendships is a different thing. Preteens and teens will be allowed to use their own resources to decide whether to be someone’s friend or not, instead of being taught by their parents. Parents must give their teenagers some freedom in choosing who they want to hang out with.
    You can help your teens to choose their friends, although it’s your teenagers who make the final decision. You can use teachable moments to talk about what makes a good friend. Here are some points to remember when you talk about friendships with your teenagers:
    1) You are allowed to have many friends;
    2) Honesty is important in a friendship;
    3) Friends sometimes hurt each other, but they can say sorry and forgive(原谅);
    4) Friends can influence each other, sometimes they will help you but sometimes they will hurt you, too.
    5) Who you choose to be your friend is important, so choose wisely;
    6) It takes many learned skills to make and keep a friendship, and it also takes many skills to end a friendship;
    7) It is okay and even helpful to make friends with the opposite gender(异性);
    8) It takes time to make a good friend, but it is worth the effort;
    9) Spending time together will help you get to know your friends well and you will feel comfortable sharing feelings;

    China is a nation with a rich culture in handwriting. “Even though the computer is widely used today, Chinese people should not forget the skill of writing with hands,” said a Chinese government official(官员).
    Nowadays, the computer has become a very useful tool to help people to write. As people use computers more often than before, many people have forgotten how to write Chinese characters (字). People often make a lot of mistakes in writing.
    At present, China is trying to help pupils and teachers to improve their writing with the help of information technology. With the technology, it is hoped that teachers can write their teaching contents (内容) on the blackboard and students can respond by writing, too.
    The Chinese character test shows that nowadays, many college students’ handwriting has become worse. Many college students do not know how to compose (组成) words or sentences in Chinese character in the right way. Not only kids, many adults also have met the same problem. They might be able to tell the general form of a certain character. However, if you ask them to spell out the character in detail (详细地), they can’t. On the other hand, they can easily type out the character on a computer.
    In the national language teaching course, we can solve this problem with the use of certain technologies. Actually, apart from（除了）technology, there is a lot that we can do. For example, we may ask students to finish their homework by writing with hands instead of typing.
    小题1:People often make a lot of mistakes in writing Chinese characters because ________.
    A．they use computers too often and many people have forgotten how to write them
    B．Chinese characters are too difficult to write
    C．they are using too much English
    D．the country forgets to stress the importance of the Chinese writing
    小题2:The problem of college students’ handwriting is that _________.
    A．they don’t know how to write a Chinese character in the right way
    B．they only know how to type out the character on a computer
    C．they can write correctly with the help of information technology
    D．they don’t know how to make up words or sentences in Chinese characters correctly
    小题3:How is China trying to help students and teachers to improve their writing?
    A．By punishing people who can’t write correctly.
    B．By controlling people’s use of computers.
    C．By using information technology.
    D．By asking them to write everything with hands.
    小题4:What does the underlined word “respond” in the third paragraph mean?
    A．抄写B．应答C．修改D．反对
    小题5:What’s the main idea of this passage?
    A．Computers are harmful(对……有害的) to our handwriting.
    B．How we can write good Chinese characters.
    C．Chinese people should not forget the skill of writing with hands.
    D．Don’t forget our mother language.

    Last March, the H7N9 virus (病毒) hit Shanghai, Anhui, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and so on. It seemed that most people who were infected(被感染) with H7N9 had the common flu. Some people suffered from a fever or a cough.

    Don’t be afraid—it’s not easy to be infected with the virus. Here is some advice to help you protect yourself when it comes.
    Wash your hands. You need to wash your hands with soap and hot water before you eat, after you use the toilet, and after you touch animals, because your hands may carry viruses.
    Cover your nose and mouth. When someone sneezes(打喷嚏) or coughs, flu viruses can travel as far as one meter through the air, so you’d better stand a proper distance (距离) while talking to someone who has a cold. And always cover your mouth and nose with a piece of paper when you sneeze or cough, and then clean your hands.
    Wear a mask(口罩). Some doctors say that masks can stop the flu as much as 80%, but if
    you don’t wash your hands often, it’s no use wearing a mask. And it’s necessary to wear the mask in the groups of people.
    Do sports often. Exercises will help make your body strong enough to resist the virus. 
    小题1:When did the H7N9 virus hit Shanghai?
    A．In March, 2013.  B．In May, 2013.    C．In March, 2012.
    小题2:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
    A．Some people who were infected with the H7N9 virus had a toothache.
    B．You should cover your mouth and nose with a piece of paper when you sneeze or cough.
    C．Some doctors say that masks can stop the flu as much as 100%. 
    小题3:How many ways to stop the virus are mentioned in the passage?
    A．Three.   B．Four.    C．Five.
    小题4:What does the underlined word “resist ” mean in Chinese?
    A．抵抗 B．传播 C．感染
    小题5:What’s the main idea of this passage?
    A．It tells us how to wash hands.
    B．It tells us why we should use masks.   
    C．It gives us some advice on how to protect ourselves when the H7N9 virus comes.

    Can plants eat people? Probably not, but there are many plants that eat meat. Some of them are big. And they can eat small animals. One famous meat-eating plant is the Venus flytrap（捕蝇草）.
    The Venus flytrap is a very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its leaves are like the pages of a book. They can open and close very quickly. Inside the leaves, there are three small hairs. If a fly touches one of the hairs, the leaf closes quickly. The fly cannot get out. In about half an hour, the leaf presses the fly until it is dead. Then, the plant covers the fly. Slowly, the plant eats the fly.
    Why do plants do it? Most plants get what they need from the sun, the air, and the ground. In some places, the ground is very poor. It doesn’t have all these important things, especially nitrogen（氮）.Animal meat has a lot of nitrogen, so some plants eat meat to get what they need.

    阅读下列短文，根据短文中的信息完成文后表格。（每空一词)
    In the past, man did not have to think about the protection of his environment. There were not many people on earth, and natural resources seemed to be unlimited.
    Today, things are different. The world has become too crowded. We are using up our natural resources too quickly, and at the same time we are polluting our environment with dangerous chemicals. If we continue like this, human life on earth will not survive.
    Everyone realizes today that if too many fish are taken from the sea, there will soon be none left. Yet, with modern fishing methods, more and more fish are caught. We know that if too many trees are cut down, forests will disappear and nothing will grow on the land. Yet, we continue to use bigger and more powerful machines to cut down more and more trees.
    We realize that if rivers are polluted with waste products from factories, we will die. However, in most countries waste products are still put into rivers or into the sea, and there are few laws to stop this.
    We know, too, that if the population of the world continues to rise at the present rate, in a few years, there will not be enough food.
    What can we do to solve these problems?
    If we eat more vegetables and less meat, we will easily get more food. Land that is used to grow crops can feed five times more people than land where animals are kept.
    The world population will not rise so quickly if people use modern methods of birth control.
    Finally, if we educate people to think about the problems, we shall have a better and cleaner living place in the future.

    Problems
