The United States is a country of immigrants. It is a place where people from all over the world come to build a better life. Some immigrants bring their families. Some bring a few of their favorite things. Others come alone with nothing but determination. One thing that every immigrant brings with them is their culture.
American immigration began in 1607 with the colony (殖民地) of Jamestown. In 1620, another group of people left England to build a settlement in America. They wanted to go to a place where they could practice their religion freely. Then many more people left their homes in Europe to build a better life in America. Many also came to America from Africa. By 1770, more than two million people had moved to America. Later on, more people came to the United States than ever before.
In cities all over America, you can see different cultures that formed this country. Many things that you may think of as being “American” are actually from a foreign culture. Some of the best examples of this are the foods people eat. Pizza and spaghetti are foods that all Americans know and love. But both of them are from Italy. Baseball is an all-American sport. But the hot dogs that people eat during the game are a type of food that was brought to America by German immigrants.
Over time, pizza and hot dogs have become a part of what is considered to be American food. In the same way, different groups of people have come together to define what an American is. An American can be a person of any background. An American can be of any faith. An American can be of any skin color. They can speak English clearly. They can speak English with an accent. Each new immigrant adds something new to American culture. It will keep changing as more people come to this country.
1.Paragraph 2 is mainly about _____.
A. the history of American immigration
B. why people chose to move to America
C. the rapid growth of the population of America
D. what immigrants have brought to America
2.Several foods are mentioned in the text to show _____.
A. they have a long history in America
B. they are very popular with Americans
C. America is a country full of tasty foods
D. America is made up of different cultures
3.The author probably agrees that American culture is _____.
A. simple B. strange
C. diverse D. advanced
4.What would be the best title for the text?
A. Immigrants and their American dreams
B. America: a melting pot of cultures
C. America: a land of opportunity
D. Life in the US: culture shock

The bed should be reserved as a place for sleep, but people tend to read an iPad a lot in bed before they go to sleep.
Charles Czeisler, a professor at Harvard Medical School, and his colleagues got a small group of people for an experiment. For five days in a row, the subjects (实验对象) read either a paper book or an iPad for four hours before sleep. Their sleep patterns were monitored all night. Before and after each trial period, they took hourly blood tests to paint a day-long picture of just how much melatonin (褪黑激素) was in their blood at any given time.
When the subjects read on the iPad as compared to the paper books, they reported feeling less sleepy at night and less active the following morning. They also took longer to fall asleep on the iPad nights, and the blood tests showed that their melatonin secretion (分泌) was delayed by an hour and a half.
The researchers conclude in today's journal article that given (考虑到)the rise of e-readers and the increasingly widespread use of e-things among children and adolescents, more research into the long-term consequences of these devices on health and safety is urgently needed. Czeisler and colleagues go on, in the research paper, to note:“Reading an iPad in bed may increase cancer risk.”
However, software has been developed that can reduce some of the blue light from the screens of phones and computers according to time of day, and there are also glasses that are made to filter (过滤) short wavelengths. While they seem like a logical solution for the nighttime tech users, it needs more research.
1.In Charles Czeislers experiment, all the subjects were asked to______.
A. sit in a row and receive the strict tests
B. have their blood tested per hour during the trial
C. read a paper book and an iPad at the same time
D. have their sleep patterns observed all night
2.The third paragraph tells us the iPad readers were likely to______.
A. feel less sleepy and tired in the day
B. become less energetic the next morning
C. have a lot more melatonin secretion
D. fall asleep more easily after reading
3.The special software recently developed can______.
A. weaken the harm done by doing nighttime e-reading
B. help prevent eyes being harmed by short wavelength
C. remove the blue light from your devices completely
D. be used in all the e-things widely and safely
4.Which title is the best one for the text?
A. Wrong behaviors before bedtime
B. New software for night e-readers
C. No e-reading in bed before sleep
D. No games on iPad in bed

Raising Money to Find a Cure, One Ribbon Barrette at a Time
How many times a day do we tell our kids that we’re proud of them? Probably not nearly enough. As a daughter of Chinese parents, it’s not in our culture’s nature to celebrate incredible accomplishments by announcing them to the world, but I’m going to break the rule and announce that I’m so proud of my 10-year-old daughter and all that she has done to raise money to support research to find a cure for Cystic Fibrosis(CF,囊肿性纤维化)
“Mommy, ” said Emily as we rushed around the house packing our things for another day at the pool last summer. “I’m going to bring my ribbon barrettes(丝带发夹)to sell during adult swimming”
Emily’s best friend is one of the 30,000 children and adults living in the United States with Cystic Fibrosis, a life-threatening genetic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system. In the 1950s, very few children with CF lived to attend elementary school. Although great progress in understanding and treating CF has led to great improvements in the length and quality of life for those with CF, there still isn’t a cure.
Last spring, Emily donated $ 140 CFF’s Great Walk in honor of her best friend living with Cystic Fibrosis. She had no idea what the summer would bring for her CFF ribbon barrette fundraise when school ended for the year. Fortunately, every time I shared a photo of Emily’s ribbon barrettes on the Internet, we received orders that privately message me or email me with requests for barrettes in their favorites colors.
Three weeks into the summer, Emily had raised $ 297 and I was spending a lot of time running her to the craft store to restock her supplies for a very good cause while my husband was packing and shipping orders all over the country. My social media accounts have served as the most powerful tool for Emily to spread the word. People notice kids doing great things and want to help the girls who are raising money to help find a cure, one ribbon barrette at a time.
Emily and her best friend have named their activity Ribbon Barrettes for Research. They have business cards and a brand new shiny website developed on a free platform, to show that any kid can do what she has been doing.
To my daughter, each sale is a victory and each order that goes out is an opportunity to spread awareness about CF. The handwritten thank-you note included in each order further shows the importance of teaching kids and parents how much their purchase support research that we hope will one day find a cure for CF.
As a parent, I love that Emily has found the power in her own voice and she has inspired others to advocate causes they care about.
1.What is Emily’s attitude towards treating Cystic Fibrosis?
A. Unconcerned B. Pessimistic
C. Hopeful D. Unworried
2.According to the passage, Emily’s ribbon barrettes are sold mainly _______.
A. at their school B. in their home
C. in the CFF D. on the Internet
3.The underlined word “word” in Paragraph 6 refers to _______.
A. raising money to help find a cure for people with Cystic Fibrosis
B. shipping orders all over the country
C. the handwritten thank-you note
D. helping people with CF by making ribbon barrettes

EDGEWOOD — Every morning at Dixie Heights High School, customers pour into a special experiment: the district’s first coffee shop run mostly by students with special learning needs.
Well before classes start, students and teachers order Lattes, Cappuccinos and Hot Chocolates. Then, during the first period, teachers call in orders on their room phones, and students make deliveries.
By closing time at 9.20 a.m., the shop usually sells 90 drinks.
“Whoever made the chi tea, Ms. Schatzman says it was good,” Christy McKinley, a second year student, announced recently, after hanging up with the teacher.
The shop is called the Dixie PIT, which stands for Power in Transition. Although some of the students are not disabled, many are, and the PIT helps them prepare for life after high school.
They learn not only how to run a coffee shop but also how to deal with their affairs. They keep a timecard and receive paychecks, which they keep in check registers.
Special-education teachers Kim Chevalier and Sue Casey introduced the Dixie PIT from a similar program at Kennesaw Mountain High School in Georgia.
Not that it was easy. Chevalier’s first problem to overcome was product-related. Should schools be selling coffee? What about sugar content?
Kenton County Food Service Director Ginger Gray helped. She made sure all the drinks, which use non-fat milk, fell within nutrition (营养) guidelines.
The whole school has joined in to help.
Teachers agreed to give up their lounge (休息室) in the mornings. Art students painted the name of the shop on the wall. Business students designed the paychecks. The basketball team helped pay for cups.
1.What is the text mainly about?
A.A special educational program.
B.A best-selling coffee.
C.Government support for schools.
D.A new type of teacher-student relationship.
2.The Dixie PIT program was introduced in order to_________.
A.raise money for school affairs
B.develop students’ practical skills
C.do some research on nutrition
D.supply teachers with drinks
3.How did Christy McKinley know Ms. Schatzman’s opinion of the chi tea?
A.She met her in the shop.
B.She heard her telling others.
C.She went to her office to deliver the tea.
D. She talked to her on the phone.
4.We know from the text that Ginger Gray ___________ .
A.manages the Dixie P1T program in Kenton County
B.teaches at Dixie Heights High School
C.sees that the drinks meet health standards
D.owns the school’s coffee shop
