    【题目】根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。
    Rodney Smith, Jr. started mowing the lawns (割草坪) in Huntsville, Alabama last fall. He used his time between classes at Alabama A&M to reach a goal of mowing 100 yards before winter. Smith has been cutting grass for free to help single moms, the elderly, and the disabled, while teaching the local youth the values that can turn boys into men. “I'm doing something positive. I want boys to follow me and be better than me,” he wrote on his Facebook page.
    Rodney is from Bermuda. He says people there help each other and are always friendly. “That's what drives me to help people.”
    In May this year, he was getting ready to launch his mowing service for the summer when he heard about a 93-year-old woman trying to cut grass by herself. Smith and a friend showed up to do the job for her.
    In November, a local TV station gave him $300, calling it a special gift for his good work. After he received the money, he used it to create the non-profit(非盈利的) service group, Raising Men Lawn Care Service. He also started a page to collect money to buy lawn equipment and other things—including T-shirts with special logos.
    After I read about Rodney's story, I told my friends about him. We also planned to mow lawns for single moms, the elderly and disabled in our neighborhood. And I hope more and more young people will join Rodney's service group—Raising Men Lawn Care Service.
    （1）What was Rodney Smith, Jr.'s goal last fall?
    A.To mow 100 yards for free.
    B.To start a non-profit service group.
    C.To set a good example to his kids.
    D.To make use of time between classes.
    （2）What does the underlined word “launch” in Paragraph 3 mean?
    A.Improve.
    B.Find.
    C.Start.
    D.Help.
    （3）What did Rodney do with the money he received?
    A.He gave it to the elderly.
    B.He improved his mowing service.
    C.He gave it to a friend's service group.
    D.He bought many T-shirts for neighbors.

    【答案】
    （1）A
    （2）C
    （3）B
    【解析】这是一篇人物传记，介绍罗德尼·史密斯义务帮助单亲妈妈，老人和残疾人等割草坪，以此为榜样教育男孩子们要乐于助人，成为堂堂正正的男人。并且他还成立了组织，希望越来越多的年轻人加入罗德尼的服务集团，为他们提供草坪护理服务。
    （1）细节理解。根据第一段Rodney Smith, Jr. started mowing the lawns (割草坪) in Huntsville, Alabama last fall. He used his time between classes at Alabama A&M to reach a goal of mowing 100 yards before winter.可知答案为A。
    （2）词义猜测。前句中有May，后句中有summer，肯定是指五月份就准备开始今年夏天的割草服务。所以答案是C。
    （3）细节理解。根据倒数第二段After he received the money, he used it to create the non-prof it(非盈利的) service group,可知，他创立一个组织，提高了割草服务，答案为B。

    【题目】阅读理解
    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 cow's 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 text?
    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.
