阅读短文,根据短文回答问题,并将答案写在相应位置。
Doctor Seuss was the name used by Theodor Seuss Geisel, who was famous because of the books he wrote for children. They combine funny words, funny pictures, and social opinion.
Theodor Geisel was born in Springfield, Massachusetts in 1904. After graduating from Dartmouth College in 1924, he spent a year studying literature(文学) at Oxford University in England. When he returned to the United States in 1927, he hoped to become a writer of serious literature. But the economic depression(经济萧条) in the United States delayed his dreams of becoming a serious writer. In 1937, he wrote his first book for children, which is called “And To Think I Saw It on Mulberry Street.” However, a number of publishers refused to accept it. They said it was too different from ordinary books. A friend finally published it. Soon other successful books followed. Over the years he wrote more than forty children’s books, which were fun to read. Yet his books sometimes dealt with serious subjects including equality, responsibility and protecting the environment.
Doctor Seuss had a strong desire to help children. In 1954, Life magazine published a report about school children who could not read. The report said many children’s books were not interesting. Reading the report, Doctor Seuss decided to write books that were interesting and easy to read. To make his book easy to read, he used words with the same ending sound, like fish and wish.
In 1957, Dr. Seuss wrote “The Cat in the Hat”, in which he used less than two hundred twenty-five words. This was the number of words a six-year-old should be able to read. The book was an immediate success. Children loved it. Their parents loved it, too. Today many adults say it is still one of the stories they like best. The success of the book made him want to write more books for children. He started a series called Beginner Books, which remain well liked among children today.
In 1984, Mr. Geisel won a Pulitzer Prize for children’s literature. At that time he had been writing children’s books for almost fifty years. He was honored for the education and enjoyment his books provided American children and their parents, and his influence remains through the books he wrote. Experts say his books helped change the way American children learned to read.
1.What was Theodor Geisel’s dream when he returned from England?
2.What did Theodor Geisel decide to do after he read the report published in Life magazine?
3.Why did Theodor Geisel finally set his simple writing style?

After the examination, the doctor told my parents my sight would get worse and that I would lose my sight finally. On the way home from hospital, no one said a word. One day, would I only imagine the scenery beyond the glass rather than see it?
That September, I entered middle school. Most nights I had homework that included an armful of books to read. To keep up with other children, I took great trouble to finish the task. With my nose a couple of inches from the page, I was tired easily. What’s worse, after I had read several pages on my own, the words slipped off the page into inky pools.
However, then I did not have audio books and electronic devices like kids do now. Instead, Mom volunteered to read out loud. Mom worked part-time, cleaned the house, cooked and spent time with Grandma. In spite of being so busy, she showed up in my room like clockwork. She put on her reading glasses. Mom always thought those glasses made her look old. To me, she looked like a teacher.
In my room, Mom’s voice raced with the ticking of the clock. Being forced to focus on listening, I found a way to keep my marks up and compete with the other kids. When the teacher asked a question, I raised my hand with confidence. Teachers praised me for having a good memory. Reading removed my fear for my failing sight, reading also made me curious about other people’s challenges and how they managed. Though I could not use my eyes to fix on each passage, my mind lit up with every new book.
True to what the doctor said, the worst came, but thanks to Mom, my sense of hearing now allows me to “see”. This was the most precious gift from a mother to her child.
1.Why did the author and his parents keep silent on their way back home from hospital?
A. They all wanted to have a good rest.
B. The author didn’t do well in the exam.

D. They focused on the scenery along the road.
2.How did the author manage to get high marks?
A. By being confident.
B. By listening carefully.
C. By getting help from his classmates.
D. By reading as many books as possible.
3.We can learn from the text that ____________.
A. the author’s sight recovered finally
B. reading made the author more sensitive
C. the author’s mother didn’t work to look after him
D. reading made the author not worry about his sight

Sleep is just as important as diet and exercise, and not getting enough sleep can lead to obesity, heart trouble and other health problems. Now scientists are adding more wake-up call to that list: lack of sleep damages the brain.
People who regularly have trouble falling asleep and staying asleep (one study drew the line at 6.8 hours ) show changes in brain-----actual shrinking(缩小),in some cases--- in area important for memory and problem solving.
“We’ve always believed that we can take the weekend to catch up and be fine,” says Sigrid Veasey, a researcher in University of Pennsylvania, but that may not be the case. When she stopped mice from sleeping for 3 days, they lost 25% to 30% of the neurons (神经元) important for focused attention---- and these remaining were damaged. What’s more, these brain cells never grew again.
Clearly, something important is happening while we sleep, but exactly what sleep does for the brain has been a mystery. That’s why scientists got excited when researchers at the university of Rochester Medical Center recently offered a new theory. While observing the brains of sleeping mice, they discovered a kind of brain-cleaning system that clears away neural waste, the buildup of which is connected with Alzheimer’s.
In another study, young healthy people whose sleep was limited to 7 hours per night for one week showed damaged brain function. Scarier is that with long-lasting short sleep, you may feel fully rested. When study subjects were limited to 4 hours of sleep for 5 days, they reported feeling very tired following the first night but they didn’t get any sleepier after that.
What’s more, a 15,000 –person study found that getting an average of less than 5 hours of sleep per night for several years resulted in a decrease in memory performance equal to the brain aging 2 years.
Have we persuaded you to turn in early tonight ? Excellent.
1.The text is mainly about _________.
A. how lack of sleep damages our brain.
B. why we feel rested without enough sleep.
C. how much sleep we should get every day.
D. Why we have trouble falling asleep sometimes.
2.Sigrid Veasey’s research shows that ________
A. lack of sleep doesn’t affect our attention.
B. damaged brain cells can not recover.
C. sleeping on weekends can make up for lost sleep.
D. most neurons will die if we sleep poorly for 3 days.
3.According to paragraph 5, after several days of short sleep people may feel _________.
A. tired B. sleepy
C. energetic D. angry
4.According to the 15,000-person study, lack of sleep may cause ___________.
A. heart trouble B. obesity
C. death D. memory loss

Dear Ms Brown,
I’m writing this letter to express my thanks to you for help me with my English study during the past three years. I can still remember how poor my English was when I come to senior middle school. I even felt frightening each time I attended an English class. Know this, you communicated with me patient and let me know the important of learning English well. Then you taught me many useful ways to learn English and even spent many of your free time helping me, for which I have always been grateful. With your help, I finally made a great progress. I could hardly believe my ears when the news came I was admitted into a key university.
Ms Brown, it’s you that has changed my life and made my dream come true. Thank you.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
