    Many people now have problems with sleep. Drinking milk is helpful. A warm drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting a good night’s sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod off—if it is milked from a cow at night.

    Researchers have discovered that “night milk” contains more melatonin(褪黑激素), which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety.

    The study, by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed with dried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night.

    Those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study published in The Journal of Medicinal Food.

    Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.

    While the effect of cows milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.

    Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content, which helps people to relax.

    Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening. The more fat you take in before bedtime, the greater burden you will put on your body at night.

    1.According to the text, the mice fed with daytime milk ________.

    A. started sleep more easily

    B. were more anxious

    C. were less active

    D. woke up later

    2.Which of the following is true of melatonin according to the text?

    A. It’s been tested on mice for ten times.

    B. It can make people more energetic.

    C. It exists in milk in great amount.

    D. It’s used in sleeping drugs.

    3.What can be a suitable title for the next?

    A. Night Milk and Sleep

    B. Fat, Sugar and Health

    C. An Experiment on Mice

    D. Milk Drinking and Health

    4.How does the author support the theme of the text?

    A. By giving examples.

    B. By stating arguments.

    C. By explaining statistical data.

    D. By providing research results.

    Many years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver, I was driving to my parents' home in Missouri for Christmas. I stopped at a gas station(加油站) about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register(收款台), I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.

    I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend's. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.

    I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.

    Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I'd left the lights on all day, and the battery(电池) was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership — a shop selling cars — was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.

    "Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?" I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.

    "Thank you" — two powerful words. They're easy to say and mean so much.

    1.The author planned to stop at Oklahoma City ________.

    A. to visit a friend

    B. to see his parents

    C. to pay at the cash register

    D. to have more gas for his car

    2.The words “took off” underlined in Paragraph 2 mean “________”.

    A. turned offB. moved offC. put upD. set up

    3.What happened when the author found smoke coming out of his car?

    A. He had it pulled back to the gas station.

    B. The couple sent him a business card.

    C. The couple offered to help him.

    D. He called his friend for help.

    4.The battery of the author’s car was dead because ________.

    A. something went wrong with the lights

    B. the meeting lasted a whole day

    C. he forgot to turn off the lights

    D. he drove too long a distance

    5.By telling his own experiences, the author tries to show ________.

    A. how to write a thank-you letter

    B. how to deal with car problems

    C. the kind-heartedness of older people

    D. the importance of expressing thanks

    阅读理解。

    You wake up in the morning, the day is beautiful and the plans for the day are what you have been looking forward to for a long time. Then the telephone rings, you say hello, and the drama starts. The person on the other end has a depressing tone in his voice as he starts to tell you how terrible his morning is and that there is nothing to look forward to. You are still in a wonderful mood? Impossible!

    Communicating with negative people can wash out your happiness. It may not change what you think, but communicating long enough with them will make you feel depressed for a moment or a long time.

    Life brings ups and downs, but some people are stuck in the wrong idea that life has no happiness to offer. They only feel glad when they make others feel bad. No wonder they can hardly win others’ pity or respect.

    When you communicate with positive people, your spirit stays happy and therefore more positive things are attracted．When the dagger(匕首) of a negative person is put in you, you feel the heavy feeling that all in all, brings you down．

    Sometimes we have no choice but to communicate with negative people. This could be a co-worker, or a relative. In this case, say what needs to be said as little as possible. Sometimes it feels good to let out your anger back to the negative person, but all this does is to lower you to that same negative level and they won’t feel ashamed of themselves about that.

    Negativity often affects happiness without even being realized. The negative words of another at the start of the day can cling to(附着) you throughout the rest of your day, which makes you feel bad and steals your happiness. Life is too short to feel negative. Stay positive and avoid negativity as much as possible．

    1.The purpose of the first paragraph is to ________.

    A. make a comparisonB. offer an evidence

    C. describe a daily sceneD. introduce a topic

    2.How can negative people affect us?

    A. By changing our ways of thinking.

    B. By telling us the nature of life.

    C. By influencing our emotion.

    D. By comparing their attitudes to life with ours.

    3.Some negative people base their happiness on ________.

    A. making other people unhappy

    B. other people’s pity for them

    C. building up a positive attitude

    D. other people’s respect for them

    4.According to the passage, to reduce negative people’s influence on us，we are advised to ________.

    A. change negative people’s attitudes to life

    B. communicate with negative people as little as possible

    C. make negative people feel ashamed of themselves

    D. show our dissatisfaction to negative people
