Materials to teach teenagers how to get enough sleep will be offered to schools across Scotland by the charity Sleep Scotland. The purpose is to help people realize the importance of sleep for young peoples physical and emotional health(身心健康)The charity Sleep Scotland said watching TV and using computers and mobile phones at night could stop teenagers from getting the nine hours of sleep they need. It also offers a sleep advising service, saying getting enough sleep can improve grades and physical health. However, less sleep can result in being heavy and a greater risk of feeling worried and hopeless.The charity Sleep Scotland hopes to educate young people about why they need a full nights sleep and how to develop good sleeping habits. Most students find it very difficult to get up in the morning and pay attention to their study. Sleep is most surely a problem.Research shows that sleep time for teenagers around the world has got down in the past 10 to 20 years. A report by the charity Sleep Scotland said young people often believed they could make up for(弥补) sleep time during the week by sleeping late at weekends. However, by going to bed even later at weekends, they would actually have to experience a change in their body clocks, which would be harmful to their study on Monday mornings.（1）The first two paragraphs tell us that in Scotland _A . all teenagers have nine hours of sleepB . teenagers cant sleep well at nightC . schools havent had any lessons on sleep beforeD . many people feel sad and hopeless（2）What does underlined “It” in the passage refer to(指) ?A .

Some Chinese parents are usually glad to see their children studying late. They will think their children work very hard, but not all parents are happy about this. Once a mother told us that every morning her 10-year-old boy put up one finger(手指)with his eyes still closed, begging(请求)for one more minute to sleep. Like thousands of students early birds in China, he has to get up before six every morning.A report shows that without a good nights sleep, students seem to be weaker(虚弱)than they should be. Many students have fallen asleep(睡觉) during class at one time or another. Too much homework is not the only reason why students stay up late. Some watch TV or play the computer games late into the night.Experts have ever said that the students should develop good study habits. So some clever students never study late, they are able to work well in class.（1）The 10-year-old boy begged for more minute to sleep because_.

Looking down from them might make you dizzy too. A skyscraper is a wonder (奇观), whether you are looking up or down.How can the buildings be so tall? Something that happened during the 1880s made it possible. There were two important things at that time First, a man named William Jenney got the idea of using a steel frame to hold up the walls and floors (钢架支撑墙壁和地面) of a building. Jenneys idea made it possible to build taller buildings, so he is called the Father of the American skyscraper. Second, the lifts improved They got much faster and safer. That helped people go up and down the tall buildings more easily.Back in the 1880s, Jenneys first tall building was 10 stories (楼层) high. But today, some buildings have 100 stories or more. In 2004, Taipei 101, at 101 stories high, became the tallest building in the world. But soon the Burj Khalifa in Dubai overtook (超过) it in 2010. The 828-metre building has 163 stories.现在全世界有许多非常高的建筑物。For example，Shanghai Tower in China，One World Trade Centre in the US，Abraj Al-Bait Clock Tower in Saudi Arabia etc All of them are really wonderful，arent they?（1）回答问题：What are skyscrapers?_（2）回答问题：Who is the “Father of the American skyscraper”?_（3）将文中划线的英语句子译成汉语。_（4）回答阃题：What does the underlined word “it” in the third paragraph refer to(指的是)?_（5）将文中划线的汉语句子译成英语。_四、 写作部分 (共4题；共20分)16. （5分）Youd better not ask too many _ (private) problems at the party.17. （5分）阅读短文，从方框中选择适当的单词填空。（每词限用一次）hot on fruits so itIt was a _ day during the summer holiday.

Tea is drunk by the largest number of people in the world. Tea, as well as silk and porcelain, began to be known by the world over a thousand years ago and has been an important Chinese export since then.Tea has a history of over 4, 000 years and China is the home of tea.
