It was a quiet village in which there was a military camp(军营).It was far from the towns and cities and there were some high mountains around. Of course it was a good place for training the new soldiers. But it was difficult for the young men to go outside. Mr White, an officer of forty, was strict with them and he hardly let them leave the camp.
Once Mr White was ill in bed. He couldn’t work and a young officer, Mr Hunt began to train the new soldiers instead of him. He knew the young men well and let nine soldiers go to the nearest town to have a holiday. But night fell and none came back to the camp. He was worried about it and stood at the gate. It was five to twelve when Mr Hunt decided to go to the town and see what was happening to the young men. He started the car quickly and set off. At that moment the nine soldiers came back. It seemed they drank wine. Of course they found the officer was angry.
“I’m sorry, sir,” said the first soldier. “I left the town on time. But something was wrong with my bus on my way here. I had to buy a horse and made it run fast. Bad luck! It died and I had to run back.”
And the other seven soldiers said they were late for the same reasons. It was the last soldier’s turn. He said, “I’m sorry, sir. I got on a bus on time, but…”
Having heard this, the officer became even angrier and stopped him at once. He called out, “If you say something was wrong with your bus, I’ll punish you at once!”
“No, no, sir,” said the young man. “My bus was all right, but the horse died!”

If you feel sleepy every morning, don't blame yourself. Your work schedule could be to blame.
A recent research shows that, for many of us, our work schedules do not agree with our natural body clocks—and experts are urging employers to take notice.
“When work schedules agree with people's natural sleep patterns, they produce higher quality and more creative work because they are more focused, less stressed and generally healthier. The opposite is also true—when employees are sleep deprived, they are more likely to make major mistakes and suffer from workplace injuries,” said Christopher Barnes, a management professor from the University of Washington.
“But it's not just about the amount of sleep you get. Whether you can be productive at 8 a.m. depends on your own body. Human beings each have an internal body clock,” said Till Roenneberg, a professor at Ludwig?Maximilian University in Munich. And that clock can differ greatly depending on the person.
“It's like feet,” said Roenneberg. “Some people are born with big feet and some with small feet, but most people are somewhere in the middle.”
Many companies start the work day at 8 a.m. or 9 a.m., putting their work schedules in disagreement with their employees' body clock. That mismatch, along with the pressure from work at all hours of the day and night, means that many people suffer from “social jetlag”. In other words, their bodies are always in the wrong time zone. He estimates that more than 70% of people get up earlier than they should.
“There is an old saying that sleep is for the weak,” said Roenneberg. “But I do feel like it doesn't help to have shortened sleep.”
1.According to the author, many people feel sleepy in the morning because________.
A. they start to work too early B. they are not in good health
C. they have no interest in their work D. they stay up too late the night before
2.What does Christopher Barnes mainly tell us?
A. The influences of lack of sleep.
B. The possible causes of poor sleep.
C. The useful ways to improve our sleep.
D. The connection between sleep and work performance.
3.By mentioning people's feet, Roenneberg intends to tell us ________.
A. people are born with feet of different sizes
B. people's body clocks differ from person to person
C. it is the most important to wear shoes of the right size
D. it is most important to obey our natural body clocks
4.Which of the following does the author agree to?
A. Sleep is for the weak. B. The early bird catches the worm.
C. Plenty of sleep contributes to good work. D. The more you sleep, the less work you can do.

On Saturday my Catalan friend invited me to come along to a Calotada. Being from the UK, I had no idea what this would need, but he promised me it was a fun Catalan(卡塔兰)tradition, and so I agreed to go. I wasn’t disappointed!
First, we took a train out to a small town near Tarragona, about an hour away from Barcelona centre. I was already amazed by how different everything looked from the city as the train rushed through small towns, all sitting on the coastline.
When we arrived, we were greeted by the sight of a small wind instrument band and about a dozen people dancing in a circle. While my friend later told me that it is a traditional Catalan dance called La Sardana, at the time I was totally confused at what I was seeing! It seemed so strange but yet so lovely that they were doing this dance completely for themselves.
Once we had been fully entertained by the dancers, we finally went inside for the Calotada and it was soon revealed to me what it actually was. We sat down at the table and a huge plate of leeks(大葱)was placed in front of us. It was explained to us that you have to peel the leeks with your fingers, dip them in a (delicious!) sauce and eat them. This sounds easier than it was.
My friend had been right in the end, it had been an extremely fun day and it felt great to get involved in a local tradition of a place I am temporarily calling home. It really inspired me to learn more about the Catalan culture, although hopefully next time it will be something less messy!
1.What made the author accept his friend’s invitation?
A. To experience a different tradition
B. To get a further knowledge of his friend
C. To free himself from the pressure of studies
D. To make a record of Catalan traditions
2.How did they go to a small town near Tarragona?
A. By taxi B. By train
C. By water D. By bike
3.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?
A. The author was tired of eating leeks
B. They participated in the local dancers
C. The author doesn’t think the Catalan culture is perfect
D. The author had a through research on Italian traditions
4.What is the best title for the passage?
A. Traveling with a Friend Abroad B. A Special Dish Astonished Me
