Think of Carnival, 【1】 you think of crowds, costumes and confusion. “Carnival” comes from two Latin words,【2】 (mean) “no more meat”. People saw Carnival as a last chance to have fun at the end of the winter season.

The government realized this problem and made laws 【6】 (solve) it. Masks were banned 【7】 (complete). But in 【8】 late 1970s the tradition was revived by students.

Today, carnival in Venice 【9】 (celebrate) for five days in February. As you wander through the streets, you see thousands of 【10】 (mask). However, nobody takes them off. If they come off, the magic is lost.

Under normal circumstances, we feel hungry when we have burnt up the food we have eaten as energy and our blood sugar and insulin (胰岛素)levels begin to drop. Ghrelin, a hormone connected to appetite, then communicates this to the brain, which is how we feel the need to eat. But some sorts of things can influence this process.

According to a 2011 study by researchers at Columbia University in the US, those who are lack of sleep eat almost 300 calories a day more than those who get enough sleep.This is because levels of the hormone ghrelin, which tells the brain we need to eat, increase when we don’t get enough sleep.The Columbia researchers noted that the women who didn’t get enough sleep took in more fat rising by around 30g on sleep-lack days－four times as much as the average increase for men.

The bright blue light emitted by devices such as smartphones and tablets may give an unwelcome encouragement to your appetite.Research this year found that your appetite continued to increase when you are exposed to the light.It also changed people’s metabolism(新陈代谢), as blood tests showed that the blue-light subjects had higher insulin and glucose levels.One possible explanation is that bright blue light at night confuses our body clock, which has a role in controlling when we feel the need to eat.

【1】What really causes people to feel hungry?

A.Our brain.B.A hormone.C.Our appetite.D.Blood sugar.

【2】Which of the following is true?

A.Women take in fat easily.

B.Lack of sleep may lead to hunger.

C.The body clock does harm to hunger.

D.Blue-light subjects control appetite.

【3】What does the underlined word “emitted” mean in Paragraph 4?

I looked out at the smiling faces packed into the school hall. Flashes from cameras lit up in all directions. The applause filled my ears. I had done it. I had really done it.

Just a few months earlier, I would never have pictured myself acting in a play in front of two hundred people."Not for a million dollars," I would have said. But when the time came, I got up on stage and faced one of my greatest fears-and discovered I could do more than I ever gave myself credit for. I found a new person inside me, a much more daring, outgoing person who had been hidden all along, just waiting for the opportunity to appear.

If not for my teacher, Mrs Sather, I might never have found that opportunity.

In the first and second grade, I was extremely shy. I had friends, but it just wasn't in my personality to be very outgoing, even when I knew someone well. I was afraid I would do or say something wrong, so usually I just smiled and listened to other people's conversations. I did well in school and I loved to write. However, I would escape into my writing, where I could be myself and never had to worry about what other people thought of me. In my stories, I was never shy.

My teacher, Mrs Sather, always encouraged me to write more. She told our class to go after our dreams and dig in with both hands. I think she was one of the first people to see my inner strength. One day, she announced that our class was going to perform a play she had written." I'll begin to cast everyone tomorrow," she said." I need someone who is not afraid to be on stage in front of a lot of people to play the lead part of Dorothy. Anybody want to try?" A few excited hands shot up-mine, of course, was not one of them-and Mrs Sather smiled." We'll talk more about it tomorrow," she said. Then the bell rang and my classmates slowly left the classroom.

Paragraph 1:

When I was loading up my backpack, Mrs Sather asked me to go to her.

Paragraph 2:

Hearing Mrs Sather's words,I realized it was time to make a change.
