一、阅读理解    When faced with the decision to get out of bed or have a few more minutes of sleep, which do you choose? Believe it or not, that decision could make a world of difference in the rest of your day.    About 85 percent of Americans use an alarm clock to wake up in the mornings, according to sleep researcher Till Roen. And while there are no official numbers on snoozing(打盹), a quick survey of social media makes it clear that hitting the snooze button is a popular pastime(消遣).    As to how the snooze button will affect your day, scientists have mixed opinions. Some scientists think people who hit the snooze button in the mornings are actually clever, creative and happy while some said that hitting the snooze button will ruin your life, or at the very least your day. “I feel that hitting the snooze button has got to be one of the worst things that ever happened to human sleep,” researcher Jonathan Horowitz said. “The chances of you ‘snoozing’ and actually experiencing a meaningful rest are close to zero.”    According to some sleep experts, when hitting the snooze button, you are in fact confusing your body and mind, and throwing yourself into a deep state of being sleepy. The body needs some time to wake up. Therefore, when returning to what will be a light sleep for a brief period of time, you are putting your body back into a sleep mode before waking it again. At that point your body won’t know what it wants, resulting in a sort of half awaken state.    If you really want to take advantage of an alarm clock, the key is to form a healthy sleep cycle. Focus your efforts on getting enough sleep each night and waking up at the same time each day so that when your alarm goes off you feel rested.1、What can we infer about hitting the snooze button from Paragraph 2?A.People do it just for fun. B.It is a common practice.C.People take it seriously. D.It is a bit childish.2、What do some sleep experts think of hitting the snooze button?A.It is meaningful in the long term. B.It makes people become lazy.C.It brings us a sense of satisfaction. D.It affects our body and mind.3、What’s the author’s suggestion on getting the best out of alarms?A.Making use of willpower. B.Trying to relax ourselves.C.Developing a good sleep habit. D.Using an extra alarm.4、What is the purpose of the text?A.To introduce ways to keep refreshed in the morning.B.To explain the relationship between the snooze button and people’s character.C.To discuss whether people should hit the snooze button.D.To illustrate how to avoid the light sleep mode.Do you want to travel to the New England Aquarium and experience it?

The 26-year-old student and environmentalist from Detroit is asking a favor of local snack lovers: Rather than throw your empty chip bags into the rubbish, donate them so she can turn them into sleeping bags for the homeless. Chip eaters drop off their empty bags at two locations in Detroit: a print shop and a clothing store, where Oleita and her volunteer helpers collect them. After they clean the chip bags in soapy hot water, they slice them open, ay them flat, and iron them together. They use liners from old coats to line the insides. It takes about four hours to sew a sleeping bag，and each takes around 150 to 300 chip bags, depending on whether they’re single—serve or family size. The result is a sleeping bag that is “waterproof, lightweight, and easy to carry around,” Oleita told the Detroit News. Since its start in 2020, the Chip Bag Project has collected more than 800, 000 chip bags and, as of last December, created 110 sleeping bags. Sure, it would be simpler to raise money to buy new sleeping bags. But that’s only half the goal for Oleita—whose family moved to the United States from Nigeria a decade ago with the hope of attaining a better life—and her fellow volunteers. “We are dedicated to making an impact not only socially, but environmentally,” she says. As Oleita said, “There’s the symbolism of using bags that would otherwise land in the rubbish and using them to help the homeless. It’s a powerful reminder that environmental injustice and poverty often go hand in hand. ”11、Why did Oleita start the Chip Bag Project?A. To sell sleeping bags for the poor. B. To raise money for the homeless.C. To return a favor to chip eaters. D. To solve garbage and poverty problems.12、How are the collected empty bags handled first?A. They are washed.  B. They are sliced.C. They are ironed.  D. They are sewed.13、Which of the following is true of Oleita?A. She is seriously attractive. B. She is heavily independent.C. She is socially responsible. D. She is financially successful.14、What can be inferred about garbage and poverty according to Oleita?A. They are easy to solve. B. They remind us of injustice.C. They are closely connected. D. They are the symbols of society.二、七选五15、Here are some ways parents can use to encourage a healthy self-image in their children.Teach what real value is. I think kids sometimes are confused about values. How valuable you are is not measured by how pretty you are on the outside. ①______ We were watching the Oscars and my 6-year-old son said, “She is so pretty,” and then quickly looked at me and said you are prettier, Mom.” And I said, “It’s okay. There are many people prettier than me on the outside. I know that’s not why you love me.” ②______Tell your kids about “the grass is always greener” syndrome.

Do not think too highly of famous people. ③______ Maybe they have the same struggles, like wanting acceptance from peers.④______ Don’t be afraid to have conversations with your child about how they’re feeling about ads songs, etc. You are the parent! ⑤______ Take a stand and have confidence enough not to be followers and not to purchase clothing, music, or magazines that you don’t believe send the right message to your children!A. Use your mouth.B. Be patient with your kids.C. about what problems they might have.D. It is important to teach children this from an early age.E.

He was a standard poodle(狮子狗)born on Valentine’s Day in 2017, and came to us in a small blue box. We had adopted him from an out-of-state raiser who posted the news on the social network. Our only request was that he have a calm behavior, able to bear the pushing and hugging of our eight-year-old daughter and six-year-old son.We were a sweet little family: me, my husband, and our children, Sophie and Jake. But for years I’d felt as if we wouldn’t really be complete until we had a dog. Also, my husband worked in a business company and had to travel some 200 days a year for his job, and I knew I’d feel safer with a large animal sleeping by the door.When we opened the box, the last piece of our puzzle fell into place. With his black hair and intelligent eyes, Max was beautiful. He was so small that he fit into the palm of my hand, his big paws lapping over the sides. He was also a little bit scared. As I pulled him close, I felt his heart pound and wondered if we’d done the right thing, taking him from his mother. But it was too late. Sophie and Jake were already fighting over who would hold him next and who should have the right to take a bath for him.Over the following months, we spent endless hours watching Max play with his Kong toy or roll around the living room floor. Like most poodles, he was smart. He mastered house-training quickly and never chewed on our furniture or shoes. He considered himself one of us. 注意1. 续写词数应为150左右2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。One night we were sleeping in the bedroom when I heard some strange noise.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________At that time,Max ran towards me.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

I thought it was Max running and hitting something, so I kept lying in the bed and made an attempt to fall asleep again. However, the noise became louder and louder, which had already annoyed me. Swiftly I got up from my bed. I opened the door and found Max was running around the living room, trying to let all the things fall down. These abnormal behaviors really confused me while it also made me a little afraid.At that time,Max ran towards me. He firmly grabbed my trousers and motioned me to the kitchen. As I approached the kitchen, I could obviously smell a strong burning scent and instantly knew what had happened. When I saw the fierce fire in the kitchen, I dashed into my children’s room like an arrow, waking them up at my maximum voice. Rushing out of the house together, I called 911 and asked our neighbors for help at the same time. Fortunately both my family and my house were saved. Thanks to our smart Max, we did escape from death.
