  When you cough or sneeze, you'd better turn your head away from others and cover your mouth with the full part of your hand.And then, you should say,“Excuse me

  This seems so simple, but it is surprising how many kids have never been told to do this.Actually, I notice adults all the time who cough and sneeze in public without placing a hand over the mouth.One important thing I point out to the kids is that after they sneeze or cough on their hands, they should wash their hands as soon as possible.If not, they will be passing those germs(细菌)along to everything and everyone they touch.

  If you come to a door and someone is following you, hold the door.If the door opens by pulling, pull it open, stand to the side, and allow the other person to pass through first, then you can walk through.If the door opens by pushing, hold the door after you pass through.

  After a few weeks of seeing kids try to get through doors in the school and watching them enter restaurants as the door hit other people, I knew I had to discuss the problem with my students.Teaching them small acts of kindness, such as letting someone else go through a door first as they hold it open, may seem unimportant, but it can go a long way toward helping students realize how to be polite and thank others.Once they've been told, they're halfway there.

  When we have to go up moving stairs, we will stand to the right.That will give others who are in a hurry a choice of walking up the left-hand side of the moving stairs.When we are going to enter a lift, the underground, or a doorway, we will wait for others to exit before we enter.

  After college when I moved to London, I was surprised at how polite everyone was in the subways.I was even more touched when I traveled to Japan.In both places, people made efforts to make way for others.On moving stairs, everyone stood to the right and walked to the left.On lifts, everyone would stand over to the side and allow others to exit before they would begin to enter.

  In the United States, boys and girls start school when they are five years old. In some states they must stay in school until they are sixteen. Most students are seventeen or eighteen years old when they graduate from secondary school. Another name for secondary school is high school.

  Most children go to public elementary (初小) and secondary school. The parents of public school pupils do not have to pay directly (直接地) for their children's education because tax (税)money supports the public schools. If a child attends a private (私立) school, his parents pay the school for the child's education.

  Today about half of the high school graduates go on to colleges and universities. Some colleges and universities receive tax money from the governments. A student at a state university does not have to pay very much if his parents live in that state. Private colleges and universities are expensive. However, almost half of the colleges students in the United States work while they are studying. When a student's family isn't rich, he has to earn money for part of his college expenses.

阅读理解:

  Suppose we built a robot(机器人)to explore the planet Mars.We provide the robot with seeing detectors(探测器)to keep it away from danger.It is powered entirely by the sun.Should we program the robot to be equally active at all times?No.The robot would be using up energy at a time when it was not receiving any.So we would probably program it to stop its activity at night and to wake up at dawn the next morning.

  According to the evolutionary(进化的)theory of sleep, evolution equipped us with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking for the same reason.The theory does not deny(否认)that sleep provides some important restorative functions(恢复功能).It merely says that evolution has programmed us to perform those functions at a time when activity would be inefficient and possibly dangerous.However, sleep protects us only from the sort of trouble we might walk into; it does not protect us from trouble that comes looking for us.So we sleep well when we are in a familiar, safe place, but we sleep lightly, if at all, when we fear that bears will nose into the tent.

  The evolutionary theory explains the differences in sleep among creatures.Why do eats, for instance, sleep so much, while horses sleep so little?Surely cats do not need five times as much repair and restoration as horses do.But cats can afford to have long periods of inactivity because they spend little time eating and are unlikely to be attacked while they sleep.Horses must spend almost all their waking hours eating, because what they eat is very low in energy value.Moreover, they cannot afford to sleep too long or too deeply, because their survival(生存)depends on their ability to run away from attackers.

avoid danger and inefficient labour

restore his bodily functions

(3)

According to the author, we cannot sleep well when we ________.

[  ]

A.

B.

C.

are in a tent

D.

are away from home

(4)

Cats sleep much more than horses do partly because cats ________.

[  ]

A.

need more time for restoration

B.

are unlikely to be attackers

C.

axe more active than homes when they are awake

spend less time eating to get enough energy

  One day I bought a house.One day-what a day!–I became a father, and not too long after that I picked up the check for my own father.I thought then it was a milestone for me.One day, when I was a little older, I realized it was one for him, too, another milestone.
