We will rest here tonight, my men, he said. Tomorrow we will fight one more battle. We must win or we will die.They were all very tired, so they ate their supper quickly and fell asleep. There were four guards on duty, but they, too, were very tired, and one by one, also fell asleep.The Romans were not asleep. Quickly they gathered at the foot of the hill. Slowly they climbed up the hillside, taking care not to make a sound. Closer and closer they came to the sleeping Scots. They were almost at the top. A few minutes more, the war would be over. Suddenly, one of them put his foot on a thistle(蓟). He cried out and his sudden cry woke the Scots. In a moment, they were on their feet and ready for battle. The fighting was hard but it did not last long. The Scots wiped out the Romans and saved their country.The thistle is not a beautiful plant. It has sharp needles all over it. Few people like it.

You dont show your secret personality when youre awake because you can control(控制) yourself， but when youre asleep， your sleeping position shows the real you. And the important position that best shows your secret personality is when you go to sleep.If you go to sleep on your back， youre a very open person. You usually believe people and you are easily influenced(影响) by new ideas. You dont like to make people unhappy， so you never show your real feelings. Youre quite shy and you arent very confident(自信的).If you sleep on your stomach， you are a person who likes to keep secrets. You worry a lot and youre always easy to be sad. You never want to change your ideas， and you are pleased with your life. You usually live for today not for tomorrow.If you sleep on curled up（蜷缩），you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and often dont want to be hurt， so you are very defensive(有戒心的). Youre shy and you dont like meeting people. You like to be alone.If you sleep on your side， you usually have a well-balanced（平衡的）personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. Youre usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel worried， but you dont often get unhappy. You always say out what you think， even if it sometimes makes people angry.（1）You may find the passage in . A . a science magazineB . a comic bookC . a sports newspaperD . a story book（2）What does the word “position” mean in the passage?

While wed love to start a never-ending discussion over the true self, were here to talk about the cells(细胞)in your body.Do you know how your fingernails and hair are constantly growing and replacing themselves? The same thing happens almost everywhere in your body. Your outer layer of skin makes way for fresher skin, and inside your veins(血管), blood cells turn over to make way for fresh blood. Its probably no surprise that these types of cells are short-lived, even some of the most seemingly permanent(永久的)parts of your body replace themselves over time-including your bones.Strong as your bones might seem, the cells theyre made of wont last a lifetime. Bones are masters at rebuilding themselves, which is why most broken bones can heal on their own into the right shape.Bones have special cells called osteoclasts(破骨细胞)whose job is to break down bone, even if it isnt broken, and send the minerals into the blood stream. This may sound frighteningly like your bones are wearing away, but your body knows what its doing. As osteoclasts break down bone, osteoblasts(成骨细胞)build up new bone to replace the old. By the end of each year, about 10 percent of your entire adult skeleton will have been rebuilt through this process.If 10 percent of your bone breaks down every year, it must take about ten years to renew 100 percent of your skeleton. That would be a great guess, and it lines up nicely with the medical myth that the human bodys cells are fully replaced every seven years, but the body is a bit more complex. That 10 percent is just an average-some bone grows faster than that, and some grows slower. While some parts of your bone will turn over quickly, other parts will stick around for decades. In fact, most bone cells could live as long as 50 years.So before you get wrapped up in an identity crisis(危机)about the cells in your body disappearing on you, know that you can lose some hair and you can cut your nails, but the bones of you arent going anywhere-at least not very soon and not all at once.（1）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A . All the cells in our body are the same ones that we were born with.B . Our blood cells are constantly growing and replacing themselves.C . It must take about 10 years to rebuild 100 percent of our skeleton.D . Osteoblasts can break down skin and also rebuild it over time.（2）The underlined words wearing away probably mean _. A . building upB . taking offC . dying outD . turning on（3）What does the passage mainly talk about? A . Our skeleton seems permanent but renews itself over time.B . It is not surprising that some cells in our body are short-lived.C . There are two types of cells in our bones: osteoclasts and osteoblasts.D . We are not the same person we were five years ago because of personality.8. （8分）阅读理解 Disneys princess stories are famous around the world.
