a. at the fixed time every day. b. when our work is over. c. when we feel happy. d. when every family member is home.59. what could a man do if he told a lie according to some judges in old england? a. he could eat a lot of food. b. he could hardly need any food. c. he could not swallow any dry bread. d. he could swallow some dry bread easily.bafter a 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 another.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 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 recommendbreathing 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.60. a good title for this passage is _. a. dreams b. good health c. sleep d. work and rest61. the underlined word “drowsy” in the last paragraph means_. a. sick b. a little sleepy c. excited d. noisy62. this passage suggests that not getting enough sleep might make you _. a. dream more b. breathe quickly c. nervous d. have poor health63. during rem _. a. your eyes move quickly b. you dream c. you are restless d. both a and b64. the average(平均) number of hours of sleep that an adult needs is_.a. about six hours b. not mentioned here c. about ten hours d. about eight hours charry, 13, wrote to us to say that even though hes older, he finds himself jealous(妒忌) of his brother jonathan because hes a better skateboarder. harry hates that he and jonathan argue constantly（不断地）about stupid things, like who gets to hold the tv remote or use the computer.maybe emilys situation will sound familiar（熟悉）to you. her older sister, whos almost 14, gets a lot of clothes, while emily, 10, only gets one set a year! she feels that her sister gets anything she wants because shes “almost a woman.” guess what they fight all the time, too.every situation is different, but these kinds of problems are generally called “sibling rivalry（同胞之争）. ” when were feeling jealous of a sibling, were angry at him or her for doing or having something that we dont, and were upset（沮丧）with ourselves for not being able to do or have that thing. the easiest way to express our anger is to fight with that sibling and it usually makes things worse.there is one really helpful way to beat the jealousy monster. instead of focusing on what you dont have or who you arent, focus on what you do have or who you are.everybody has different goals, interests, skills and talents. you may be jealous that your sister is a star of swimming but maybe youre a great drummer. instead of wishing you were good at sports, you can start a cool band（乐队）with your friends!life is not a head-to-head competition, and nobodys keeping score. if it seems like your siblings are keeping score, dont let it continue; let them know how you feel. you might also consider talking to an adult about how you can feel better about yourself. maybe it means finding a great new hobby, or trying a different sport.most importantly, remember that keeping feelings of jealousy to yourself is not going to make them go away. talk about these emotions as soon as you feel them, so they dont get stuck inside you.65. the examples mentioned in the first two paragraphs prove that .a. sibling rivalry is a kind of fierce competition b. every family has its own problemsc. having siblings means having troubled. it is common for siblings to quarrel or fight66. you will feel jealous of a sibling when .a. you are in your early childhood b. you consider things in a positive way c. you dont feel as good as your siblingsd. you have regular fights and arguments with your siblings67. this passage is mainly about .a. how to deal with sibling rivalry b. how to play favorites（偏爱）in your familyc. what problems sibling rivalry causes d. what causes sibling rivalrydjumping on your bike, even in the city, is becoming increasingly popular- in london, for example, cycle use has more than doubled in the past ten years. so, which is the best bike for you? if youre traveling to work, a folding bike such as one of the models here is suitable unless youre cycling more than a couple of miles, in which case it might be uncomfortable（不舒适的）. you can take a fold-up on the train and as it goes indoors with you, its secure（安全的）. for longer journeys, a road bike with drop handlebars and narrow tyres（轮胎）is a good choice. try specialized, from 400. note that the riding position encourages you to look downwards, which can be dangerous. mountain bikes are best suited to off-road travel; their fat and strong tyres are good for climbing steep, muddy slopes（斜坡）. good brands include trek and giant, with prices starting at less than 300. a hybrid bike (halfway between a mountain bike and a road bike) is a good compromise（折中）with more upright riding position and thin, fast tyres. ridgeback makes great hybrids, from around 350. for a classic sit-up-and-beg bike, its still hard to beat pashley, which makes its bikes by hand. expect to pay around 500. once youve picked your bike, sizing is crucial or you may suffer back or neck pain. a famous bike shop will help you choose the right size frame. the height of the seat should be adjusted carefully-again, a good shop will advise. if you only plan to cycle once or twice a month, you can choose a lower-priced bike, but for regular use, paying more means better quality: cheaper bikes need more frequent adjustment of brakes and gears (刹车和齿轮) -and tend to be heavier, too. finally, items such as mudguards(挡泥板) arent always included.68. the main purpose of this passage is to .a. give advice on how to choose a bikeb. advertise some famous bike brandsc. encourage people to go to work by biked. introduce the advantages of different bikes69. according to the passage, which kind of bike is least likely to be stolen?a. a road bike. b. a mountain bike. c. a folding bike. d. a hybrid bike.70. which companys bikes are handmade?a. giants. b. pashleys. c. ridgebacks d. specializeds.71. from the last paragraph, we can know that .a. a cheap bike may not have mudguardsb. a cheap bike is fit for regular usec. an expensive bike may be heavier than a cheap oned. you may suffer back or neck pain riding a cheap bikeefor thousands of years, the most important two buildings in any british village have been the church and the pub. traditionally, the church and the pub are at the heart of any village or town, where the people gather together to socialize and exchange（交换）news.as a result, british pubs are often old and well preserved（维护）. many of them have become historic sites. the most famous example is the pub in the city of nottingham called “the old trip to jerusalem”, which dates back to the year 1189 ad and is probably the oldest pub in england.however, british pubs are not just for kings and queens; they welcome people from all classes and parts of society. on a cold night, the pubs landlord or landlady can always find a warm place for you by the fire. there is always honest and hearty food and plenty of drink available at an affordable price.thats how things used to be. things are beginning to change. it is said that the credit crunch(信贷紧缩) is causing 39 british pubs a week to go out of business. people do not have enough spare money to spend on beer. recently,
