Popeye the Sailor first became a popular cartoon in the 1930s.The sailor in that cartoon ate lots of spinach to make him strong. People watched him, and they began to buy and eat a lot more spinach. Popeye helped sell 33 percent more spinach than before! Spinach became a necessary part of many people’s diets. Even some children who hated the taste began to eat the vegetable.
Many people thought that the iron in spinach made Popeye strong, but this is not true. Spinach does not have any more iron than any other green vegetable.
People only thought spinach had a lot of iron because the people who studied the food made a mistake. In the 1890s, a group of people studied what was inside vegetables. This group said that spinach had ten times more iron than it did. The group wrote the number wrong, and everyone accepted it.
Today, we know that the little iron there is in spinach cannot make a difference in how strong a person is. However, spinach does have something else which the body needs—folic acid.
It is interesting to point out that folic acid can help make a person strong. Maybe it was really the folic acid that made Popeye strong all along.
1.A good title for this reading passage is______.
A. Popeye the Sailor B. The Truth About Spinach
C. A Mistake with Numbers D. Folic Acid Makes You Strong
2.Why did many people eat spinach after they saw Popeye the Sailor?
A. They thought spinach made them strong.
B. They thought Popeye was funny.
C. Spinach had a lot of iron.
D. People liked folic acid.
3.A research group told people that spinach______.
A. made Popeye strong
B. was a green vegetable
C. had less iron than other green vegetables
D. had more iron than other green vegetables

Cycling or even walking in city areas can be a little dangerous, thanks to the fact that one is sharing the road with vehicles that are increasingly getting larger and heavier. A recent study proves that of the 1.27million people that die in road traffic crashes each year, about half are walkers, motorcyclists and cyclists. Now there may be a solution that could provide at least some help to protect this helpless group---an airbag!
If you are worried that this safety measure will involve you taking around a heavy package or worse still, wrapping yourself inside an ugly plastic bag, the bag is fitted not on the human, but on the outside of the vehicle. And, while there are several versions of the idea in the works, the one most recently unveiled by Dutch car company TNO, seems to be the most advanced and ready to go into production.
In the works since 2011, the airbag covers only the lower part of the windshield. This will provide the much needed buffer(缓冲)between the person’s head and the pane of glass he/she would otherwise meet.
The chain of events leading to an airbag cause are quite simple---A camera fitted beneath the rear-view mirror monitors the vehicle’s closeness to a walker or cyclist. Any contact with either one of them sets off the sensors in the car’s bumper and quickly blows up the airbag. In addition to that the sensors also set off the car’s automatic brake, reducing the chances if an even worse injury.
In tests conducted using a model, the success of not getting injured after being hit by a car travelling at about 40km/h was about 50-50! While not perfect, it will still result in reducing the number of deaths by a huge amount.
With TNO ready to license its technology to car makers and many more companies trying to develop similar concepts, we would not be surprised if outer airbags become a standard feature in every car pretty soon.
1.Why does the airbag cover the lower part of the windshield?
A. To protect the windshield from being destroyed.
B. To make the vehicle look beautiful.
C. To reduce the weight of walkers.
D. To prevent people’s head crashing on the glass.
2.The fourth paragraph is mainly about__________.
A. how the airbag works
B. where the airbag is fixed
C. why the airbag is safe
D. what the airbag is made up of
3.The writer thinks the airbag of TNO____________.
A. perfect
B. practical
C. expensive
D. useless
4.What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Airbags are a new standard feature in cars.
B. Airbags are much safer for drivers now.
C. Airbags are practical for walkers and cyclists.
D. Airbags are a solution to higher car accident rates.

If you are afraid of the dark，it’s not a big deal．It’s perfectly normal to feel afraid After all，animals do too. “Fear matters，”says Karen Warkentin，an ecologist．“It’s a good thing，” she adds, “because fear makes you do things that keep you alive.”
Like kids，many animals experience fear and they respond to the feeling in variety of ways．A frightened turtle pulls its head and legs inside its shell．A small fish will swim away when a big，hungry fish approaches．
Some animals respond to fear in ways you might not expect．The first example is that the fear of being eaten can scare some frogs right out of their eggs. Warkentin made the surprising discovery while studying red—eyed tree frogs in Costa Rica.
In this species，female frogs attach jellylike clumps（果冻一样的块状物）of their eggs to the undersides of leaves．The leaves hang on branches that dangle（悬挂）over ponds．After they hatch from the eggs，the tadpoles（蝌蚪）then fall into the water，where they eventually grow into adult frogs.
Tree frog eggs usually grow for 6 days before hatching．If they sense that a hungry snake is about to attack，however，they can hatch up to 2 days ahead of schedule. As the snakes are unable to swim，by falling into the water early，the tadpoles can escape.
If hatching early helps protect red—eyed tree frogs from snakes，you might wonder why their eggs don’t always hatch sooner．It turns out that hatching early brings its own danger．Once tadpoles land in the water，hungry fish and other animals like to eat them too．Staying in their eggs for a full 6 days，then，allows frog embryos（胚胎）to grow big and strong．This extra growth improves their chances of surviving in the water．
1.It can be inferred from the passage that fears .
A. help animals grow bigger and stronger
B. are less common among young animals
C. help animals move a lot to fit the environment
D. are more or less important in order for animals to survive
2.We are told in the passage that tree frogs .
A. face danger both inside their eggs and in the water
B. will grow fast if they fall into the water later
C. are surprisingly clever when inside their eggs
D. stay in their eggs longer if they are frightened
3.Why do the tadpoles hatch up to 2 days ahead of the schedule？Because
A. They like falling into the water early
B. They want to grow into adult frog
C. They sense a hungry snake is about to attack
D. Frog embryos can grow strong
4.What is the best title of the passage ？
A. What is Fear B. Why do we feel afraid
C. You feel afraid，animals do too D. Fear is a good thing
5.What do you think would be discussed in the following paragraph?
A. Further explanations as to why tree frogs hatch ahead of schedule．
B. How the unborn frogs know when a snake is about to attack them．
C. Another example of animals that responds to fear in an unexpected way．
D. How tree frogs improve their chances of survival before falling into the water.

By age 25 John D. Rockefeller controlled one of the largest oil companies in America. By age 31 he had become the world’s largest oil producer. By age 38 he commanded 90% of the oil produced in the U.S. By the time of his retirement at age 58, he was the richest man in the country. By the time he died, he had become the richest man in the world.
But there was little in Rockefeller’s upbringing that would signal his great success. He was born in a run-down house in New York in 1839. His mother was a solid, religious woman, but his father, William Avery Rockefeller, was little more than a dishonest salesman, unable to provide for his family.
Young John grew up helping work the family farm. But he had his eyes set on greater things, and earnestly desired to rise in the world.
He had a talent for numbers, and he dropped out of high school to become better acquainted with their management. Enrolling in a 3-month business course at a commercial college, he learned the basics of book-keeping and banking.
After graduating at the age of 16, Rockefeller left his rural home to look for a job in Cleveland. As Rockefeller remembered, the job market was tight, and the response was not encouraging: “No one wanted a boy, and very few showed any interest in me.” Yet young John was not at all discouraged.
From morning until later afternoon, six days a week, for six weeks — sweating through Cleveland’s hot summer, walking its streets until his feet ached — Rockefeller continued to seek a job. He attacked this goal with patient persistence. Finally, on September 26, 1855, he heard the words he’d been waiting for: “We’ll give you a chance.” Ever after, Rockefeller referred to this date as “Job Day” and celebrated its anniversary with more passion than his own birthday, for this was the great turning point in his life. Through singular focus on a goal, and patient persistence, he had obtained a toehold in the world of business.
1.What is the purpose of Paragraph 1?
A. To explain why Rockefeller was so successful.
B. To attract the readers with facts about Rockefeller.
C. To entertain the readers with some stories of Rockefeller.
D. To inform the readers of the road for Rockefeller’s success.
2.Which of the following mainly contributed to Rockefeller’s success?
A. Family upbringing. B. His talent for numbers.
C. His persistence and determination. D. Training at a commercial college.
3.What happened to Rockefeller before he got his first job?
A. He had an eye problem.
B. He was turned down for many times.
C. He dropped out of his commercial college.
D. He was forced to go home by the tight market.
4.Why did he choose to celebrate the “Job Day”?
A. It changed his whole life. B. It was close to his birthday.
C. It was the hardest day in his life. D. It was the day he got his first job.

Before discussing different kinds of emotions,let us briefly talk about how researchers measure bodily processes and action or behavior,and how this relates to what we do in our daily lives when we observe emotions in others.
Bodily processes can be directly measured by means of a polygraph.When a polygraph is skillfully used to compare how we react bodily with what we are saying,it is called a “lie detector”.Bodily processes can also be measured indirectly.This is what we do when we observe someone blushing (脸红).However,we are not always aware of what bodily processes respond to.
Measuring action or behavior is the other way researchers assess the emotions.For example,one measure of fear of snakes is how close a person will go to the snake.Another procedure is to have a person tell how afraid he is,or how he feels.In this way,researchers have developed the so－called “fear thermometer” to assess a person's fear.In our everyday living,we do very much the same thing.Only not too systematically,we react to what a person does, what he says,how he says it,and how he looks.Is he smiling? Is his voice trembling? We put all this observations together to infer what a person is feeling.
However,we do not always act as we feel.Sometimes we do things that we don't feel like doing.Sometimes we say we feel one way and then we act another.Actors,for example,successfully learn to “make believe” emotions,or learn to hide them.Thus we cannot always tell what a person is feeling by what he says or by what he does.
1.Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. We can never tell what a person is feeling.
B. The “fear thermometer” is a way to measure how fearful a person is.
C. Researchers can assess the emotions in some ways.
D. People do not always know what bodily processes they respond to.
2.The underlined word “assess” in the 3rd paragraph is close in meaning to ______.
A. make B. measure
C. discuss D. develop
3.The writer uses the example of actors in order to argue that ______.
A. it is rather easy to become successful actors
B. people do not always act as they feel
C. we can never believe what other people say
D. actors are always telling lies
4.The passage is mainly about ______.
A. the way of assessing the emotion
B. the usefulness of a “lie detector”

When people today talk about a tiny house, they probably mean the trendy living space that‘s about the size of a shed (棚). But you would have to be five inches tall to live in the original tiny houses. Dollhouse(小房子)，which have been around for several centuries, don’t offer shelter to real people, but they provide a vivid（生动的） experience of life in times and places both real and imaginary.
The National Building Museum in Washington, D.C., lets visitors time travel in this tiny world through ―Small Stories: At Home in a Dollhouse,” an exhibit that opened Saturday. Visitors can see twelve dollhouses from the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, England, which contain amazing tiny furnishings. But those people who put together the exhibit also wanted visitors to know the characters inside.
“It’s 300 years of British homes told through their inhabitants (居民),” said Alice Sage, who is in charge of the London museum.
So as visitors look inside the Tate Baby House, a fancy townhouse from 1760, they can push a button to hear a young woman get a lecture from her mother on the proper way to run a home. In the Killer Cabinet house, a servant named Betsy complains about the problems of city life in the 1830s. “We’ve got the cat to keep the rats away,” she says.
That dollhouse was John Killer‘s gift to his wife and five daughters. The girls were allowed to play with the house, but they probably also learned a few lessons, Sage said.
“The kitchen of the house would have been the perfect way to teach the girls about the management of a home,” she said, noting the tiny dishes and pots.
Those who prefer a more modern look won't be disappointed. There are two rooms displaying a white dollhouse from 1935, an apartment house from the 1960s and a brightly colored 21st-century design.
The end of the exhibit shows how imaginative design sometimes works best in small spaces.
The Building Museum asked twenty-four artists, designers and architects from across the United States to each create a “dream room” from the past, present or future. Some of these unique small rooms were made using traditional furnishings, others from materials such as clay, insects, 3D-printing, and even peeps marshmallow candies!
1.Which of the following were on show Saturday?
A. A dozen dollhouses from England.
B. Some old shelters for poor people.
C. Some imaginary tiny furnishings.
D. A couple of fashionable living spaces.
2.What is the function of the characters inside the Museum?
A. Working as organizers of the exhibit.
B. Making the exhibit more attractive.
C. Providing good services for visitors.
D. Helping visitors understand dollhouses.
3.What can we learn about the Killer Cabinet house?
A. It was made up of 24 tiny rooms.
B. Its kitchen may have an educational purpose.
C. Its history dates back to the 17th century.
D. It was owned by a woman named Betsy.
4.What might be the best title of the passage?
A. An exhibit of dollhouses.
B. The history of dollhouses.
C. How to make a dollhouse.
D. Amazing tiny furniture.
