With so much homework its often difficult to get the rest you need. But you need to try， because sleep keeps you healthy and it stops you getting fat.Recently， a group of US scientists did a study (调查) of kids aged between 8 and 13. The study found that if kids sleep for just one extra (额外的) hour each day, the chance of their getting fat is cut by about 30 percent .Why? When people dont get enough sleep, they become tired. When they are tired, they dont exercise enough. Also， kids like snacks: If they are awake (醒着的) an extra hour or two each day，they have more time to eat snacks or other unhealthy foods.So， how much sleep should you get? Scientists suggest 10 to 11 hours a night for kids aged 5 to 12. For older kids, eight to nine hours will do.（1）How many reasons are given why people might get fat without enough sleep?A . 3B . 2C . 1D . None.（2）If you are under 10， how long do the scientists advice you to sleep?A . 10 to 11 hoursB . 8 to 9 hoursC . 8 to 13 hours.D . As long as possible.（3）Where was the study done by the scientists?A . In ChinaB . In Britain.C . In America.D . In Japan.（4）What does eight to nine hours will do mean?A . Eight to nine hours sleep will be good and enough.B . Eight to nine hours sleep will be too long.C . Eight to nine hours sleep will help get fat.D . Eight to nine hours sleep will help eat snacks and unhealthy foods.（5）What does the passage talk about?A . How to get long sleep.B . How to keep fat.C . Enough sleep makes people healthy and slim (苗条)D . Long sleep makes people healthy and slim.23. （10分） What will the house look like in the future? Could it have gardens on its walls, or a pool with fish for dinner? Architects（建筑师） believe that they are all possible. The only thing for sure is that the houses will be as green as possible.The tree houseMany architects in the world would like to build a “tree house.” Like a leaf, the surface of the house collects sunlight during the day. The energy can be used to heat water, produce electricity, and even create fresh air for the home. The “root” (根) of the house is deep under the ground. It uses the soil (土壤) to keep the homes temperature.The Lizard houseLike a lizard (蜥蜴), changing color with the weather is the most important design of a lizard house. When its in the bright sun, the cover of the house will turn dark to protect it from strong heat. During dark days, it turns white and takes in as much light and heat as possible to produce energy.Meals at homeThis design is perhaps as much about the future of food production as architecture (建筑风格). It has gardens on the outside wall of the house. People can plant tomatoes, carrots and green tea on them. So every day in the morning, you just need to walk outside and collect your meals.Learning from the pastLooking to the future isnt the only way to be green. Sometimes, ancient techniques (古老的技术) can also help cut down energy use. For example, a chimney (烟囱) can be a useful air conditioner because it is easier to flow out hot air from the chimney.（1）What is the best title (标题) of the passage?A . Green house of the futureB . The greener, the betterC . How to build green housesD . Changes of the houses（2）We can heat water, produce electricity or create fresh air for the home_.A . with the root of a leafB . with the energy from sunlightC . with the soil under the groundD . with gardens on its walls（3）What will happen to the cover of the lizard house when its in the bright sun?A . It will take in light.B . It will produce energy.C . It will turn dark.D . It will turn white.（4）The passage seems to tell us that meals at home in the future _.A . will be more deliciousB . need more cooksC . cost as much as possibleD . will be greener（5）A chimney can be a useful air conditioner but it used to cause _. A . pollutionB . accidentC . noiseD . techniques24. （10分）阅读理解Computers can injure you. Most other injuries happen suddenly. For example, if you fall off a bicycle and break your arm, it happens very quickly. But computer injuries happen slowly.Your eyesToo much light can injure your eyes, so never sit too close to a computer screen. Your eyes should be at least 50 centimeters from the screen. Remember to look away from it sometimes. This gives your eyes a rest.When you use a computer, the window should be on your left or your right. If it is behind you, the light will reflect(反射) on the screen. If the windows is in front of you, the sun and the screen will both shine into your eyes.Your hands and wrists(手腕)Hand and wrist injuries can happen because the hands and wrists are moved in the same way hundreds of times. If you use a keyboard for a long times, follow these three rules: 1) Rest your wrists on something. 2) Keep your elbows at the same height as the keyboard. 3) Stop sometimes and exercise your hands, wrists and fingers in a different way.Your backSome people sit for many hours in front of a computer. If you sit in a wrong way, you can injure your back or your neck. So you should sit with your back straight. The top part of the screen should be in front of your eyes. Your forearms(前臂), wrists and hands should all be parallel to(与.平衡) the floor. If you are sitting for a long time, get up every 30 minutes and exercise your arms, legs and neck.Enjoy your computer, but use it safely.（1）The underlined word “injure” means “ .” A . 保护B . 影响C . 伤害D . 帮助（2）Your eyes should . A . be close to the screenB . be less than 50 centimeters from the screenC . face the windowD . be more than 50 centimeters from the screen（3）To protect your hands and wrists you should . A .

Stop playing computer sometimes and exercise（4）Which of the following is true? A . Sitting wrongly is only bad for your wrists and fingers.B .

It also notes a large increase in the number of international students from China.These findings are from the latest Open Doors Report. The report documents the record number of international students in the United States during 2012, 2013 school year. It says more than seven hundred sixty-four thousand four-hundred such students were attending American colleges and universities during the last two years. That represents an increase of almost six percent than one year earlier. On the other hand, the number of Americans studying overseas(海外) increased by one percent, which reached nineteen thousand this year.The report says one hundred ninety-four thousand students at American colleges and universities were from China .That is an increase of more than twenty-three percent over the year before. Peggy Blumenthal, an expert（专家）of international education, described the effect of the increase in Chinesestudents.Now they have been coming for some time. But this year was the highest level ever. She says many Chinese families are able to pay for the highest-quality education for their children. The children mainly choose to study in America.We know many of them have enough income to be able to afford to send them anywhere in the world if they want to go. And for the most part, looking around the world, Chinese students still prefer to come to the United States as their choice.Chinese students are not the only ones who want to attend American colleges and universities. After China, India sends the second largest number of students to the United States for higher education. India has about one hundred thousand students in American schools. South Korea is third with about seventy-two thousand students.Why do so many foreign students study in the United States? Peggy Blumenthal provides one reason.The advantage America has is that we have a huge system (系统)and a very perfect system. So there are over four thousand universities and colleges in the United States. Among them are some top ones in the world, and what that tells us is there is still a lot of room to host international students.Foreign students represent less than four percent of the total student population in American higher education. And from Learning English, thats the VOA Special English Education Report. Im Bob Doughty.
