Let’s say a person gets up at 7:00 in the morning and goes to bed at 11:00 at night. He comes home from work about 6:30, and by the time he has finished with dinner it is after 8:00. He steps outside in the summer to relax — but it’s already getting dark! Not much time to enjoy the summer day.
Now suppose you set the clock ahead one hour. This person still does everything at the same time — but this time, when he steps out at 8:00 there’s still plenty of light to enjoy. An hour of daylight has been “saved” for him!
Daylight saving time doesn’t, of course, add any hours to a day. This is impossible. All it does is to increase the number of useful hours of daylight during the seasons when the sun rises early.
Daylight saving is most popular in cities. It allows the closing of offices, shops, and factories at the end of the working day while the sun is still high. Farmers, who do their work by sun time, usually do not observe daylight saving time. They cannot work in the field before the morning dew(露水) has dried or after it appears in the evening.
Did you know who first thought of daylight saving time? It was Benjamin Franklin! When he was living in France in the 18th century, he suggested the idea to the people in Paris. But it was not adopted then.
Daylight saving laws were first passed during World WarⅠ, when materials for making electricity was hard to find, and when it was necessary to save on artificial light. With daylight saving, the bedtime of many people comes soon after it gets dark, while without it, if people stay up until the same hour they may have to use artificial light.
Germany was the first country to adopt daylight saving time in 1915. Then England used it in 1916, and the United States adopted it in 1918.
1.What does the underlined word “artificial” mean?
A. natural B. man-made
C. bright D. sun
2.What’s the purpose of adopting daylight saving time?
A. To have more artificial light.
B. To have one more hour to work.
C. To make better use of daylight in certain seasons.
D. To have one more hour to rest.
3.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Once the idea of daylight saving time is proposed, it was adopted.
B. The idea of daylight saving time went through a long process of being adopted.
C. It was a French scientist that put forward the idea of daylight saving time.
D. The idea of daylight saving time didn’t make any difference at all.
4.What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Winter is a good season for daylight saving time.
B. Daylight saving time is especially good for wars.
C. Daylight saving time is good for anyone in any places.
D. Not all seasons are good for daylight saving time.

As you grow older, you'll be faced with some challenging decisions--like whether to cut class or try cigarettes. Making decisions on your own is hard enough, but when other people get involved and try to pressure you one way or another it can be even harder. People who are your age, like your classmates, are called peers. When they try to influence how you act, to get you to do something, it's called peer pressure. Peers can have a positive influence on each other. Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in the solar system. Maybe you got others excited about your new favorite book, and now everyone's reading it. These are examples of how peers positively influence each other. Sometimes peers influence each other in negative ways. For example, a few kids in school might try to get you to cut class with them; your soccer friend might try to convince you to be mean to another player and never pass him the ball. It is tough to be the only one who says “no” to peer pressure, but you can do it. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do. You've probably had a parent or teacher advising you to “choose your friends wisely.” Peer pressure is a big reason why they say this. If you choose friends who don't cut class, smoke cigarettes, or lie to their parents, then you probably won't do these things either, even if other kids do. If you continue to face peer pressure and you're finding it difficult to handle, talk to someone you trust. Don't feel guilty if you've made a mistake or two.
1.For whom is the passage most probably written?
A. Students. B. Parents.
C. Teachers. D. Doctors.
2.In the last three paragraphs, the author mainly_____.
A. explains why friendship is so important
B. gives advice on how to deal with peer pressure
C. discusses how peers influence us
D. shows how to make more good friends
3.Which of following may help handle peer pressure?
A. Spending more time with classmates.
B. Taking up more relaxing hobbies.
C. Choosing friends with no bad habits.
D. Helping others who are in trouble.
4.What is the topic of the passage?
A. Friendship. B. Making decisions
C. Self-confidence D. Peer pressure

In 1752, three years after two Scotsmen, Alexander Wilson and Thomas Melville, fastened thermometers to kites to record the temperature of clouds, Benjamin Franklin made his famous experiment with a kite, a string, and a key. Franklin hoped to show that nature's tremendous displays of electricity in lightning were the same thing as the feeble electric sparks scientists of the day were producing in their laboratories. He built a square kite to which he attached an iron wire. He flew the kite with a hemp string(麻线), and near the base of the string he tied a large brass key. The kite rose into a dark thundercloud, where the iron wire picked up electrical charges. Franklin noticed that the strands of the string(绳串) were beginning to stand up with electricity. As rain wet the string, it conducted more electricity. Standing in the shelter of a shed, Franklin cautiously reached out his finger to touch the brass key. A series of sparks jumped from the key to his finger. He thus proved that lightning and electricity are the same. We now know that this experiment was a dangerous one, for Franklin might have been killed by a bolt of lighting.
1.The best title for this passage is ________.
A. The Discover of Electricity
B. The kite and Science

In one way of thinking, failure is part of life. In another way, failure may be a way towards success. The “spider-story” is often told. Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider making a web(网). The spider tried to reach across a rough place in the rock. He tried six times. On the seventh time he made it and went on to make his web. Bruce is said to have been encouraged by this and to have gone on to defeat the English. Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right way to make one. Once he was asked why he kept on trying to make a new type of battery when he had failed so often, he replied, “Failure? I have no failure. Now I know 50,000 ways it won’t work.”
So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused it? Were conditions right? Were you in top form yourself? What can you change so things will go right next time?
Second, is the goal you’re trying to reach the right one? Try to do some thinking about what your real goals may be. Think about this question, “If I do succeed in this, where will it get me?” This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn’t be doing anyway.
The third thing to keep in mind about failure is that it’s a part of life. Learn to “live with yourself” even though you may have failed.
1.This passage deals with _____.
A. failure and success
B. two sides of failure
C. the “spider-story”
D. the invention of light bulb
2.In the first paragraph the writer tells mainly about _____.
A. the value of failure B. how people fail
C. famous failures D. how not to fail
3.The thing the writer does not tell you to do to deal with failure is _____.
A. check out your goals to see if they are right for you
B. think about failure as part of your life
C. think about failure to find out what went wrong
D. keep away from things that are beyond you
4. Even if we have failed we should _____.
A. learn to forget it B. learn to remember it
C. learn to enjoy it D. learn to accept it
