Each of the passage is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A , B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANWSER SHEET Passage 1 After a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day. There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other. Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement. If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very slowly and very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep!1. This passage suggests that that not enough sleep might make you _. A. dream more often B. have poor health C. nervous D. breathe quickly2. During REM, _. A. your eyes move quickly B. you dream C. you are restless D. Both A and B3. The average number of hours of sleep that an adult needs is _. A. Not stated（说明）here B. about six hours C. about ten hours D. about eight hours4. The word “drowsy” in the last paragraph means _. A. a little sleepy B. asleep C. sick D. stand up5. A good title for this passage is _. A. Good Health B. Dreams C. Sleep D. Work and RestPassage 2 The greatest attraction of walking is that we all know perfectly well how to do it. Because it is a low-impact exercise, it is a good choice for anyone who is overweight and under-exercised. It wont stress your joints, but it will strengthen your heart and lungs, thigh muscles and burn plenty of calories（卡路里；热量）. A nice, leisurely stroll, in which you cover a mile in an hour, burns about 100 calories per mile. Speeding things up a little-to 2 miles per hours-will help you burn 200 calories, while a brisk walk-3 miles per hour-burns 300 calories an hour. Another nice thing about walking is that you can begin your new walking program right now. The sport requires no advanced instruction and little equipment, beyond willing legs and a pair of sturdy shoes. Walking has two other advantages: It can be done anywhere, under any conditions, and it is a very social sport. Simply grab a few friends and turn your daily coffee-and-doughnut break into on-the-road conversation time. Youll soon be entranced by the beauty of the outdoors and by the emerging beauty of the inner, thinner you.6. What is the passage mainly about? A. The types of walking. B. The instructions in walking. C. The advantages of walking. D. The greatest attraction of walking.7. How many calories would be burnt if you have a brisk walk for half an hour? A. 250. B. 200. C. 100. D. 150.8. what does the word “sturdy” in Para. 3 probably mean? A. Strong and firm. B. Cheap and soft. C. Beautiful and fashionable. D. Clean and plain.9. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the advantage of walking? A. We can begin our new walking program without any advanced instruction. B. We can begin our new walking program with anyone we like. C. We can begin our new walking program at any time we like. D. We can begin our new walking program at any place we like.10. What can we infer from the passage? A. Walking can strengthen our heart and lungs. B. Walking can help us in building up our social relationship. C. Walking can burn plenty of calories. D. Walking can be done anywhere at anytime.Passage 3When I was a boy, I belonged to the Boy Scouts, so I used to go camping every summer, and once something happened which I have never been able to explain. We were camping in a place above a river. After arriving, we all rushed down to the river and had a swim. Standing by the river, we noticed that it was surrounded by cliffs. If someone wanted to reach the river at this point, he had to past our camp. Several days later, the scoutmaster had to be away for a day. That afternoon, we had supper early. We were sitting round the fire, eating and talking, when a man walked past and went down towards the river. We all felt that this man looked very strange, but, because each of us was afraid of looking very stupid, no one said anything. We ate rather slowly, taking as long as possible. After finishing, we collected our plates together so that we could take them to the river where we always washed them. But no one moved towards the river-we stood looking at each other ashamed. Then all shouting at once, we began talking about the man who had walked past us. We agreed how strange he looked and we wondered what he could be doing by the river. We knew that he could only return by passing through our camp. An hour passed. Then one of the boys suggested we should creep down by the river so that we could see what the man was doing. Moving very slowly and keeping in the shadow, we crept down towards the bank. One boy climbed a tree so that he could see everything clearly. He called to us that there was no one there, so we ran down to the bank, looking everywhere carefully. We could not understand where the man had gone. When it got dark, we went back to our camp feeling bewildered. We told the scoutmaster what had happened in the evening. Smiling, he doubted that we had seen the man, but finally suggested we go and look again. We did, but there was no one there. Many years have passed, but I still remember it as if it were yesterday. What did we see? I do not know.11.

When the show was over, we sat down and talked and after she left, I said to myself it was one more rejection. A few weeks later, my manager received a phone callWarner Brothers wanted to sign me to a record deal. Soon after, I released (发行) my first record in June 1986. It sold over 2million copies. My best efforts had gone into every job Ive ever held. It was the sense of responsibility that made me feel like a man. Knowing that I had done my best filled me with pride.
