BIt doesnt matter when and how much a person sleeps, but everyone needs some rest to stay alive. Thats what all doctors thought, until they heard about Herpin. Herpin, it was said, never slept. Could this be true? The doctors decided to see this strange man themselves. Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw him sleeping. In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one.The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They asked him many questions, hoping to find an answer. They found only one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason? No one could be sure. Herpin died at the age of 94. 4. The main idea of this passage is that_.A. large numbers of people do not need sleepB. a person was found who actually didnt need any sleepC. everyone needs some sleep to stay aliveD. people can live longer by trying not to sleep5. The doctors came to visit Herpin, expecting_.A. to cure him of his sleeplessnessB. to find that his sleeplessness was not really trueC. to find out why some old people did not need any sleepD. to find a way to free people from the need of sleeping6. After watching him closely, the doctors came to believe that Herpin_.A. needed some kind of sleepB. was too old to need any sleepC. needed no sleep at allD. often sleeps in a chair7. One reason that might explain Herpins sleeplessness was _.A. his mothers injury before he was bornB. that he had gradually got rid of the sleeping habitC. his good physical conditionD. that he hadnt got a bedCHave you ever stayed in a hotel? Most Chinese hotels often provide guests with things like disposable (一次性的) toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and slippers. Many guests like the idea because they dont have to bring their own. But, if you travel to Beijing, remember to bring your own things. Starting from June, some hotels in Beijing will no longer provide guests with these disposables. They want to ask people to use less disposable things. Many disposable things are made of plastic. People throw them away after only using them once. It is a waste of natural resources (资源) and is very bad for the environment. Do you know, one Chinese person makes as much as 400kg of waste a year! Most of that waste comes from disposable things. In Beijing, people throw away about 19,000 tons of plastic bags and 1,320 tons of plastic lunch bowls every year! Plastic can take between 100 and 400 years to break down. So the less plastic we throw out, the better. So, wherever you travel, bring your own things and use them again and again. Back at home and school, you can also do something to make our world a better place. Try to do these things in your daily life: Use cloth shopping bags, not plastic ones. After using a plastic bag, wash it out and let it dry. Then you can use it over and over again. Do not use paper cups. At your school canteen（食堂）, use your own bowl and chopsticks instead of disposable ones.8. Why do many hotels provide guests with some disposable things? A. Let their guests be convenient during their travelling. B. Hope their guests use less disposable things. C. Wish their guests to save money. D. Want their guests to use more disposable things.9. Some Beijing hotels will no longer provide guests with _. A. cheap food and drink B. disposable things C. good service D. free TV programmes. 10. Which of the following is NOT true? A. Many disposable things are made of plastic. B. Throwing disposable things away is a waste of natural resources. C. Plastic is very bad for the environment. D. Plastic breaks down easily. 11. What can we do to make our world a better place at home and school? A. Use shopping bags made of plastic. B. Do not throw away paper cups. C. Use disposable plates, bowls and chopsticks. D. Do not forget to reuse daily necessities（日用品）.DWhen asked why he or she wears clothes, some people will probably answer to keep warm and to cover my body. These are the basic reasons why clothes are worn, but people also want to look attractive and appear successful to others.If people only wore clothes for warmth and to cover their bodies, most clothes would be simple and cheap. In most Western countries, however, clothes are sometimes very expensive. The main reason for this is not the cost of the cloth or the cost of making the clothes. The clothes are expensive because of fashion(时尚).Successful businessmen, for example, often wear very expensive suits, shirts and ties. Sometimes they pay thousands of dollars for a suit and hundreds of dollars for a tie. Its just a suit and a tie but they pay these prices because of the famous name of the designer. A suit costing much less would be just as warm and would cover the wearers body just as well.Fashion is always changing, which means those who want to be fashionable have to buy new clothes every few months, even if last months clothes have only been worn once or twice. Some people have wardrobes full of clothes that have hardly been worn but are no longer in fashion. Being fashionable, therefore, can be a very expensive pastime（消遣）!12. What do people basically wear clothes for? A. Looking attractive to others. B. Following the fashion. C. Appearing successful to others. D. Keeping warm and covering bodies.13. We can learn from the passage that _. A. fashion is an expensive pastime. B. fashion is not always changing C. expensive clothes are warmer D. fashion designers like expensive clothes14. What does the underlined word “wardrobes” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Fashionable clothes shops. B. The clothes that some people have. C. Cupboards for storing clothes. D. Shelves used for keeping books.15. What is the passage mainly about? A. Suits and ties. B. Clothes and fashion. C. Beauty and success. D. Cost and pastime.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。Everyone wants to be selfconfident, but maybe we just dont know how to be.
