【题目】 When we want to find out what the weather will be like tomorrow, we usually turn on the radio or TV. But in the time before radio and TV, people needed to forecast (预测) the weather. How did they do it? Let’s learn about two weather rhymes (押韵的诗) together.
Red sky at night, Sailor’s delight!
Red sky in the morning, Sailors take warning!
This weather rhyme was written a long time ago, but it still works today. As the sun is setting, a red sky at night usually means there are no clouds coming in from the west, a sign of good weather for tomorrow. But a red sky in the morning always means drier air is moving away to the east and moister air is moving in from the west. The moist air could bring clouds, rain and stormy weather.
When leaves show their undersides (底部), Be very certain, rain betides.
The rhyme shows us how trees forecast the weather. Tree leaves turn upside down just before it rains. In the period before a storm, strong winds can lift the leaves and show their undersides.
Animals, insects and plants are natural forecasters. When a summer storm is coming, you may notice that dogs, cows, horses, and geese grow restless (不安的) and frogs come out of their hiding places. These animals don’t have some sixth sense. Scientists think the animals can hear the low frequency (频率) sound waves made by thunderstorms many miles away.
Get outside and observe nature carefully, and soon you’ll be your own weather forecaster.
【1】The underlined word “moist” can be replaced by the word “________”.
A.wetB.ColdC.warmD.clean
【2】What is helpful for some animals to forecast the stormy weather?
A.Their sense of sight.B.Their sense of hearing.
C.Their sense of smell.D.Their sense of touching.
【3】Which of the following is TRUE?
A.The two rhymes are both about winter weather.
B.When leaves show their undersides, it will be fine.
C.If you see a red sky in the morning, you can travel outside.
D.If you see a frog come out of its hiding place, you’d better stay at home.
【4】What’s the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?
A.To introduce two famous weather rhymes to us.
B.To tell us we should read as many rhymes as possible.
C.To show us the way to observe different animals.
D.To encourage us to get close to nature and observe the weather on our own.

【题目】 Research proves that nearly half of the cancers diagnosed(诊断) in the UK each year—over 130,000 in total— are caused by life choices that include smoking, drinking and eating the wrong things.
Tobacco(烟草) is the biggest factor, causing 23% for cases in men and 15.6% in women, says the Cancer Research UK report. Next comes a lack of fresh fruit and vegetables in men’s diets, while for women it is being overweight. Lead author of the report, Professor Max Parkin, said: “Many people believe cancer is related to fate(命运) or ‘in the genes(基因)’, and that it depends on luck whether they get it or not. Looking at all the evidence, it is clear that around 40% of all cancers are caused by things we mostly have the power to change.”
For men, the best advice appears to be: stop smoking, eat more fruit and vegetables and cut down on how much alcohol you drink. For women, again, the best advice is to stop smoking, but also watch your weight.
In total, 14 lifestyle and environmental factors, such as where you live and the job you do, cause 134,000 cancers in the UK each year.
Some risk factors are well founded, such as smoking’s link with lung(肺) cancer. But others are less well realized. For stomach cancer, a fifth of the risk comes from having too much salt in the diet, data suggests. Some cancers, like mouth and throat cancer, are caused almost mainly by lifestyle choices. But others, like gall bladder cancer(胆囊癌), are largely not related to lifestyle.
Public Health Minister, Anne Milton, said: “By making small changes you can cut your risk of serious health problems—giving up smoking, watching you drink, getting more exercise and keeping an eye on your weight.”
【1】The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refer to________.
A.changeB.lifestyleC.cancerD.weight
【2】According to Professor Parkin, he thinks that________.
A.cancers are caused because of genes
B.some cancers may be avoided mainly
C.most cancers are caused for no reason
D.men can keep an eye on their weight to avoid cancers
【3】According to this passage, stomach cancer can be brought on by________.
A.working overtimeB.taking in too much salt
C.lack of exerciseD.smoking too much
【4】Which of the following can be learnt from the passage?
A.Smoking is the only cause of lung cancer.
B.Drinking a small amount of wine is good for health.
C.Some cancers may not be caused by lifestyle choices.
D.About 134,000 people die of cancer in the UK each year.

【题目】 In today's world, sleep experts say that for a better night's rest, Americans should turn off their smartphones or iPads before sleeping. Such electronic products make the brain more active, and then influence people's sleep. But according to a latest survey, more than 90% of Americans usually use a computer or some other kinds of electronic products in the hour before bed.
Researchers found that man-made light from some electronic products at night might reduce the levels of the brain chemicals that help sleep. The researchers showed that sitting in the light from tablets clearly reduced the levels of the chemicals which manage our body clocks and play a great role in the sleep cycle.
In the study, the researchers let volunteers read, play games and watch movies on a tablet for different time while measuring how much light their eyes received. They found that sitting for two hours before a bright tablet at night reduced the levels of the chemicals by about 22%.
Studies of students using computers at night have got the similar results. And researchers said that might not only cause sleeplessness, but also increase the risk of obesity(肥胖症), diabetes(糖尿病) and other diseases.
To be on the safe side, the researchers advise us to use computers less before bed, or turn down our screens low.
【1】What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A.Americans don't get enough sleep.B.Electronic products are very popular.
C.The brain becomes more active at night.D.Sleep experts never use smartphones.
【2】How many electronic products influence people's sleep?
A.By making our brains more tired.B.By making our bodies weak.
C.By reducing the levels of the brain chemicals that help us sleep.D.By changing our body clocks.
【3】What does the underlined word "that" refer to?
A.Making a survey about sleep.B.Using smartphones in the daytime.
C.Sitting in a bright room.D.Surfing the Internet at night.
【4】What do the researchers advise us to do to have a good sleep?
A.Learn to use smartphones or iPads.B.Watch some relaxing TV programs.
C.Turn down the screens low.D.Try to sleep earlier than before.
