【题目】How to Become a Morning Person?
Here are some habits you can focus on that can help you become a better morning person:
【1】
For five minutes each morning, write three things you are grateful for today. Practicing gratitude about what we have going for us can restructure our brain to focus on positive things.
Always have breakfast
If you’re pressed for time, pick something. A breakfast gives you energy and it’s fuel for your brain.
Try reflecting
Reflecting early in the day, even for 10 minutes, help to “clean” your brain of any disordered thoughts.【2】With an app called Headspace you can try a guided 10-minute reflection.
Get moving
To really wake your entire body up, pick any type of physical.【3】or it can be something shorter and even simpler: a morning yoga routine.
Light
Leave your bedroom curtains open.【4】, holding back melatonin（褪黑素）production and waking you up. Try to expose yourself to as much sunlight as possible.
Enough sleep
This might seem obvious but most Americans don’t get enough sleep these days. And if you’re short on sleep, you’ll tend to sleep late. With time, that will push you into a later and later sleep cycle.
【5】 Some people seem to be morning people, some night people.
A. Develop a positive attitude
B. Force yourself to get up in the morning
C. Keep a gratitude diary
D. It can be an exercise at the gym
E. It’s not as difficult as it sounds
F. This will allow natural sunlight to come in
G. And finally remember that people differ
【答案】
【1】C
【2】E
【3】D
【4】F
【5】G
【解析】本文主要介绍了成为一个早起的人所要培养的一些良好的习惯。
【1】本空属于小标题类。可根据本段第一句For five minutes each morning, write three things you are grateful for today.是让你每天早上写三件你今天感激的事情，还有第二句的关键词gratitude更是一个很好的提示，故选C。
【2】根据空后With an app called Headspace you can try a guided 10-minute reflection.可知有一个叫Headspace的手机应用可以帮助你去思考，所以思考很方便，很容易，并没有听起来那么困难，故选E。
【3】本段的标题是动起来，再结合空前一句话To really wake your entire body up, pick any type of physical.可知是让你参加运动来唤醒你的身体，D项中有关键词exercise at the gym，健身房的运动，和本段匹配，故选D。
【4】本段标题是光，且由空前一句Leave your bedroom curtains open.可知让卧室的窗帘开着别拉起来，这样就会有阳光照进来，故选F。
【5】根据空后一句Some people seem to be morning people, some night people.可知有的人是早起的人，有的是夜猫子，所以人和人是不同的，故选G。

And the air itself becomes more and more crowded. If one giant airliner crashed into another in mid-air 600 lives could be lost. Air traffic controllers tell the pilot exactly when to turn when to climb and when to come down．The air traffic controllers around a busy airport like London-Heathrow may handle 2500 planes a day．Not all of them actually land at the airport．Many plane that flies near the airport comes under the orders of the controllers there. Recently such a disaster almost happened. One with 69 passengers had come from Toronto and the other with 176 passengers from Chicago, an air traffic controller noticed on his radar screen that the two planes were too close to each other. He ordered one to turn to the right and to climb. But he made a mistake. He ordered the wrong plane to do this. Fifteen seconds later it flew directly in front of the second plane.

【题目】根据短文内容的理解，选择正确答案。 For hundreds of millions of years, turtles (海龟) have struggled out of the sea to lay their eggs on sandy beaches, long before there were nature documentaries to celebrate them, or GPS satellites and marine biologists to track them, or volunteers to hand-carry the hatchlings (幼龟) down to the water's edge lest (for fear that) they become disoriented by headlights and crawl towards a motel parking lot instead. A formidable wall of bureaucracy has been erected to protect their prime nesting on the Atlantic coastlines. With all that attention paid to them, you'd think these creatures would at least have the gratitude not to go extinct (die out).
But Nature is indifferent to human notions of fairness, and a report by the Fish and Wildlife Service showed a worrisome drop in the populations of several species of North Atlantic turtles, notably loggerheads, which can grow to as much as 400 pounds. The South Florida nesting population, the largest, has declined by 50% in the last decade, according to Elizabeth Griffin, a marine biologist with the environmental group Oceana. The figures prompted Oceana to petition the government to upgrade the level of protection for the North Atlantic loggerheads from "threatened" to "endangered"— meaning they are in danger of disappearing without additional help.
Which raises the obvious question: what else do these turtles want from us, anyway? It turns out, according to Griffin, that while we have done a good job of protecting the turtles for the weeks they spend on land (as egg-laying females, as eggs and as hatchlings), we have neglected the years spend in the ocean. "The threat is from commercial fishing," says Griffin. Trawlers (which drag large nets through the water and along the ocean floor) and longline fishers (which can deploy thousands of hooks on lines that can stretch for miles) take a heavy toll on turtles.
Of course, like every other environmental issue today, this is playing out against the background of global warming and human interference with natural ecosystems. The narrow strips of beach on which the turtles lay their eggs are being squeezed on one side by development and on the other by the threat of rising sea levels as the oceans warm. Ultimately we must get a handle on those issues as well, or a creature that outlived the dinosaurs (恐龙) will meet its end at the hands of humans, leaving our descendants to wonder how creature so ugly could have won so much affection.
（1）We can learn from the first paragraph that ________.
A.human activities have changed the way turtles survive
B.efforts have been made to protect turtles from dying out
C.government bureaucracy has contributed to turtles' extinction
D.marine biologists are looking for the secret of turtles' reproduction
（2）What does the author mean by "Nature is indifferent to human notions of fairness" (Line 1, Para. 2)?
A.Nature is quite fair regarding the survival of turtles.
B.Turtles are by nature indifferent to human activities.
C.The course of nature will not be changed by human interference.
D.The turtle population has decreased in spite of human protection.
（3）What constitutes a major threat to the survival of turtles according to Elizabeth Griffin?
A.Their inadequate food supply.
B.Unregulated commercial fishing.
C.Their lower reproductively ability.
D.Contamination(pollution) of sea water.
（4）How does global warming affect the survival of turtles?
A.It threatens the sandy beaches on which they lay eggs.
B.The changing climate makes it difficult for their eggs to hatch.
C.The rising sea levels make it harder for their hatchlings to grow.
D.It takes them longer to adapt to the high beach temperature.

Ways to sleep smarter
Studies show that poor sleep influences people to make good decisions, concentrate on tasks or even manage a friendly mood(情绪) at work. Today we've got our top favorite sleep tips and facts.
Set a regular bedtime
Choose a time when you normally feel tired. Try not to break this routine(惯例) on weekends when you will probably stay up late. If you want to change your bedtime, make the change gradually, such as 15 minutes earlier or later each day.
Eat the right food
Some foods are more helpful to a better night's sleep than others. Others like bananas, potatoes, and whole-wheat bread are also helpful.
Exercising provides lots of good health benefits(好处). A good night's sleep is one of them. But make sure you exercise in the morning or afternoon. The National Sleep Foundation reports that exercise in the morning or afternoon can help deepen sleep. However, those who worked out in the evening hours saw little or no improvement in their sleep.

【题目】根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Money Matters
Parents should help their children understand money. So you may start talking about money when your child shows an interest in buying things, candy or toys, for example.
1 The basic function of money
Begin explaining the basic function of money by showing how people trade money for goods or services. It is important to show your child how money is traded for the things he wants to have. If he wants to have a toy, give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier(收银员). When your child grows a bit older and understands the basic function of money, you can start explaining more complex ways of using money.
2 Money lessons
Approach money lessons with openness and honesty. If you must say no to a child's request to spend money, explain, — You have enough toy trucks for now. Or, if the request is for many different things, say, — You have to make a choice between this toy and that toy.
3
Begin at the grocery store. Pick out two similar brands of a product — a name-brand butter and a generic (无商标产品), for example. You can show your child how to make choices between different brands of a product so that you can save money. If he chooses the cheaper brand, allow him to make another purchase with the money saved. Later, you may explain how the more expensive choice leaves less money for other purchases.
A. Wise decisions.
B. The value of money.
C. Permit the child to choose between them.
D. Tell your child why he can — or cannot — have certain things.
E. Ask yourself what things that cost money are most important to you
F. Talk about how the money bought the thing after you leave the toy store.
G. The best time to teach a child anything about money is when he shows an interest.
