    Almost every Chinese person can recite(背诵) the two lines of the famous poem, “Every grain on the plate comes from hard work ”. But sadly, many of us don’t actually get the real meaning of these lines: Don’t waste food.
    A CCTV program reported that the food Chinese people throw away every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year. Do we have too much food? Absolutely not. According to the UN World Food Program, there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2011, especially in developing countries. Six million children die of hunger every year.
    Chinese people are well-known for being friendly and generous. Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food on the table. Luckily, a number of people have realized the importance of saving food. What should we do in our daily lives to waste less food?
    1. Don’t order too much in a restaurant. Only order as much as you want to eat. If you cannot eat all the food you ordered, take the rest of it home.
    2. Don’t leave any food in your bowls while having meals.

    When an animal helps another animal, it usually gets something valuable in return. For a long time, many scientists thought that only people could act generously just because it feels good.
    However, a new study in Germany suggests that chimpanzees (黑猩猩)also do good things for no real reason. And so do children who are as young as 18 months of age. Maybe it is because humans and chimpanzees share an ancestor(祖先) about 6 million years ago.
    People and chimpanzees appear to develop such features(特征) without any other training, says Warneken, a scientist in Germany. Warneken and his partners worked on adult chimpanzees that live on an island in the African country of Uganda. They also worked with 18-month-old children in Germany. The researchers performed three experiments on the adult chimpanzees and two experiments on the kids. In the first animal experiment，a person tried to reach his arm into a cage to get a stick，but he couldn’t reach it. A chimpanzee was in the cage，and it could reach the stick if it wanted to.
    Thirty-six chimpanzees took part in this experiment one by one, and no chimpanzee saw what the other chimpanzees had done. Even though the animals hadn’t met the person before, they usually took the stick and gave it to the person. What’s more, they did this whether or not the person offered them bananas as a reward. In a similar experiment, 36 children acted in a similar way. They helped the person reach the stick, whether or not they were offered toys for their help.
    Researchers did other experiments on chimpanzees and babies. No rewards were offered in either experiment. And still, both the chimpanzees and children went out of their way to help. Still, the new study is different from earlier findings. Researchers have found that chimpanzees don’t give rewards of food to other chimpanzees, even if it costs them nothing to be generous.
    小题1:Warneken and his partners worked with ________.
    A．young chimpanzee that live on an island
    B．18-month-old children who live in Germany
    C．kids who are living with adult chimpanzees
    D．adult chimpanzees that live on the African mountain
    小题2:A new study in Germany suggests that ________.
    A．people also share information for good reason
    B．children know something at the age of 18 months
    C．chimpanzees do good things for no real reason, too
    D．humans should develop their abilities 6 million years ago
    小题3: Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage？
    A．Thirty-six chimpanzees joined in this experiment one by one
    B．No chimpanzee saw what the other chimpanzees had done
    C．The animals hadn’t met the person before the experiments
    D．Chimpanzee gave the person the stick in order to get a reward
    小题4:From the passage we know that ________.
    A．both chimpanzees and children can find their way to help others
    B．chimpanzees will reward good food to other chimpanzees
    C．children is more generous than chimpanzees in some ways
    D．both chimpanzees and children can do the difficult experiments

    March 16 is World Sleep Day. This year’s slogan is “Breathe Easily, Sleep Well”. Its aim is to celebrate the *benefits of good and healthy sleep.
    Fangfang, from Liaoning, just became a high school student last September. She gets up at 5:30 a.m. every day and goes to bed at about midnight. Fangfang feels sleepy all the time. “I want to finish all my homework first,” she said.
    Sleep is like food for the brain. Enough sleep helps the body and brain grow and develop. According to the National Sleep *Foundation in the US, adults need seven to nine hours of sleep every night. For students who are 10 to 17 years old, a healthy amount is about eight to nine hours every night.
    But many students don’t get enough sleep because of early school start time and heavy homework. About 80 percent of middle school students don’t get enough sleep, the China Youth and Children Research Center reported. For some students, they want to sleep early, but they keep worrying about their schoolwork and can’t fall asleep quickly. For others,they may even have insomnia, and usually they have to ask the doctors for help.
    These sleeping problems greatly *affect people’s life. Some doctors found out that *lack of sleep for teenagers lead to poor grades. Students without enough sleep cannot pay attention in class or do well in sports. Also, they often become anxious easily.
    Luckily, with good sleep habits, it is easier to fall asleep. Some of these good habits include *avoiding drinks that make people excited late in the day, going to sleep at the same time every night, and sleeping in a comfortable place that is dark, quiet, and neither too warm nor too cold.
    More tips to get a good night’s sleep:
    Exercising during the day. You’d better do sports three hours before going to bed.
    Don’t eat big meals before bedtime. Drink a warm glass of milk.
    If you stay awake worrying about things, try making a list of things that you need to do before you go to bed.
    小题1:How much sleep do students aged from 10 to 17 need every night? 
    A．7 hours.B．8-9 hours.C．10-12 hoursD．Less than 7 hours.
    小题2:What does the word “insomnia” mean in Paragraph 4?
    A．失眠症. B．好动症.C．咽喉炎. D．关节炎.
    小题3:If teenagers don’t get enough sleep, they may _____________. 
    A．do well in sportsB．grow and develop better
    C．feel sleepy in classD．do much better in studies
    小题4:Which of the following is a good sleeping habit according to the passage?  
    A．Do exercise at night before going to bed.
    B．Going to sleep at the same time every night.
    C．Going to sleep in a place where it is bright.
    D．Eat big meals or drink a lot of wine at night.
    小题5:What is the main idea of the passage?   
    A．People should sleep well to live healthy and study better.
    B．Teenagers should sleep longer on Saturdays and Sundays.
    C．People should see the doctor if they don’t have enough sleep.
    D．Teenagers don’t get enough sleep because of heavy homework.

    A Brown University sleep researcher has some advice for people who run high schools: Don’t start classes so early in the morning. It may not be that the students who nod off at their desks are lazy. And it may not be that their parents have failed to enforce(确保) bedtime. Instead, it may be that biologically(生物学上)these sleepyhead(贪睡者)students aren’t used to the early hour.
    　　“Maybe these kids are being asked to rise at the wrong time for their bodies,” says Mary Carskadon, a professor looking at problem of adolescent (青春期的)sleep at Brown’s School of Medicine.
    　　Carskadon is trying to understand more about the effects of early school time in adolescents. And, at a more basic level, she and her team are trying to learn more about how the biological changes of adolescence affect sleep needs and patterns(方式).
    　　Carskadon says her work suggests that adolescents may need more sleep than they did at childhood, no less, as commonly thought.
    　　Sleep patterns change during adolescence, as any parent of an adolescent can prove. Most adolescents prefer to stay up later at night and sleep later in the morning. But it’s not just a matter of choice---their bodies are going through a change of sleep patterns.
    　　All of this makes the transfer(迁移)from middle school to high school---which may start one hour earlier in the morning----all the more difficult, Carskadon says. With their increased need for sleep and their biological clocks set on the “sleep late, rise late” pattern, adolescents are up against difficulties when they try to be up by 5 or 6 a.m. for a 7:30 a.m. first bell. A short sleep on a desktop may be their body’s way of saying. “I need a timeout.”
    小题1:Carskadon suggests that high schools should not start classes so early in the morning because _______.
    A．it is really tough for parents to enforce bedtime
    B．it is biologically difficult for students to rise early
    C．students work so late at night that they can’t get up early
    D．students are so lazy that they don’t like to go to school early
    小题2:The underlined phrase nod off most probably means _______.
    A．turn aroundB．agree with othersC．fall asleepD．refuse to work
    小题3:What might be a reason for the hard transfer from middle school to high school?
    A．Adolescents depend more on their parents.
    B．Adolescents have to choose their sleep patterns.
    C．Adolescents sleep better than they did at childhood.
    D．Adolescents need more sleep than they used to.
    小题4:What is the test mainly about?
    A．Adolescent health care.
    B．Problems in adolescent learning.
    C．Adolescent sleep difficulties.
    D．Changes in adolescent sleep needs and patterns.

    The iPhone 4S is a touchscreen-based smartphone developed by Apple Inc. It is the fifth generation of the iPhone, succeeding the iPhone 4, and was announced on October 4, 2011. Siri on iPhone 4S is like a person assistant. It lets you use your voice to do things on the iPhone. You can just talk to Siri as you talk to a person. Siri understands what you say, knows what you mean, and even talks back.
    Say something like “Tell my wife I’m running late.” “Remind me to call the doctor.”“Any fast food restaurants around here?” Siri does what you say, finds the information you need, then answers you. It’s like you’re having a conversation with your assistant.
    Siri not only understands what you say, but it’s also smart enough to know what you mean. So when you ask, “Any fast food restaurants around here?” Siri will reply, “I found a number of restaurants near you.” Then you can say, “Hmm. How about French fries?” Siri remembers that you just asked about restaurants for something to eat, so it will look for KFC restaurants in the neighborhood. And Siri is active, so it will question you until it finds what you’re looking for.
    When you want to do something, just ask Siri to help you do it. Siri uses almost all the built-in apps on iPhone 4S. It writes texts and sends email messages. It searches the web for anything you need to know. It plays the songs you want to hear. It gives you directions and shows you around. It makes calls, plans meetings, helps you remember and wakes you up. In fact, ask Siri what it can do — it even speaks for itself.
    Siri is easy to use and does so much. You’ll keep finding more and more ways to use it.
    小题1:When was iPhone 4S announced?
    小题2:What is Siri on iPhone 4S like?
    小题3:How can you use Siri to do things on the iPhone?
    小题4:Why will Siri look for KFC restaurants in the neighborhood?
    小题5:What does the writer want to tell us according to the passage?
