Avoid working, paying bills, reading, or watching television in bed. If you associate your bed only with sleep, youll be more likely to fall asleep.Watch the Caffeine(咖啡因)Too much caffeine throughout the day can cause interrupted sleep. Limit yourself to two cups of tea, coffee, or cola, taken at least 6 hours before bedtime.Tap the Exercise AnswerIn a study from Stanford University School of Medicine, a group of 50- to 76-year-olds who had complained of sleep problems began proper exercise for about half an hour four times a week. Compared with a similar group of people who didnt exercise, the more active group slept an average of one hour more each night, took less time to fall asleep.Take a BathTake a warm bath an hour or two before bed. Your body temperature will slowly drop after you get out of the tub（浴盆）, making you feel tired. Dont bathe right before bed, however, because it can briefly stimulate you enough to make it hard to fall asleep.Buy the Right BedA bed thats too soft can cause poor sleep. Replace your mattress(床垫)if its more than ten years old, and buy one thats as firm as you can tolerate but still comfortable.If 30 minutes go by and you havent fallen asleep, dont lie in bed feeling frustrated. Get up and do something relaxing.26Which of the following is the best choice if one wants to have a good sleep?ADrinking as much coffee as possible.BTaking a warm bath an hour or two before bed.CWatching TV in bed before going to sleep.DBuying a beautiful and soft bed.27Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined word in the last paragraph?AexcitedBtiredCinterestedDencouraged28What is the best title for the passage?ATake a bath before sleepingBThe importance of a good sleepCTips for a good sleepDHow to buy the best bedIt is not easy to become a doctor in the United States. The first step is getting into a medical college. More than one hundred and twenty American schools offer study programs for people wanting to be doctors.People can get advice about medical schools from many resources. One of these is the Princeton Review. The publication provides information about colleges, study programs and jobs.The Princeton Review says the competition to enter medical schools is strong. American medical schools have only about sixteen thousand of openings. But more than thirty-two thousand students may try it. Many of those are women.Most applicants contact more than one medical school. Some contact many. An important part of the application usually is the Medical College Admission Test which is called MCAT. The Association of American Medical Colleges provides the test by computer. It is offered in the United States and other countries.The people who want to enter medical schools are rated（评定）on reasoning, physical and biological sciences and an example of writing. Applicants for medical schools need to do well on the MCAT. They also need a good record in their college studies.Some students work for a year or two in a medical or research job before they attempt to enter a medical school.29To enter medical schools is _.AeffortlessBnot competitiveCfiercely competitiveDeasy30Which of the following is NOT true about the Princeton Review?AIt can give us advice about medical schools.BIt is a great resource for people who want to become doctors.CIt can provide us information about study programs.DIt provides the MCAT test.31The underlined word “those” in the third paragraph refers to _.Apeople who want to be doctorsBpeople who want to enter a medical schoolCpeople who are tested by MCATDdoctors in the United States32What is the main idea of the passage?AHow to be a good doctor in the United States.BThe importance of the Princeton Review.CHow to prepare for the MCAT.DHow to get into a medical school.My first week in the United States was a cultural shock. Everything felt new to me, including the style of conversation, the community I lived in and even the type of food people ate.In our community back home, people eat mutton and chicken. Pork and beef are also common among other communities, but eating beef is taken as an illegal act. Unlike Nepal, eating beef is common in the West where most of the people follow religions other than Hinduism.Food is just an example. When people move from one part of the world to another, they should adapt（适应）themselves to the new culture. For example, going to the bars or getting drunk is not acceptable in my community, but it is common in the US after a certain age.I was raised in a traditional Hindu family in Nepal. We have a conservative（保守的，谨慎的）opinion towards marriage. Arranged marriages（包办婚姻）are common in which families decide whether the two should get married. Free love marriages are not allowed and are seldom seen. Same-sex marriage is also considered impossible.To me, culture is a matter of habit. The culture is so deep-rooted in peoples minds that most people are against changes. It is always easy for them to do what they have been doing throughout their life. It may be difficult for anyone to adapt to a new culture.However, with travel being an unavoidable thing for modern people, one always comes across different cultures. In such cases, one should be respectful and adaptive to the culture other people follow. The world is always a better place to live in when we have spaces for people of all cultures.33What does the Nepal law forbid people to eat?APork.BBeef.CChicken.DMutton.34What can we learn from the passage?AMost westerners believe in Hinduism.BGetting drunk in Nepal is acceptable.CAnyone can enter the bars in the US.DThe writer came across a cultural shock.35Which may be seen most in Nepal?AOpen marriages.BFree love marriages.CSame-sex marriage.DArranged marriages.36What is the writers attitude to different cultures?ANegative.BRespectful.CConservative.DIndifferent.In todays world of smart phones and laptops, most people have at least one time-telling thing with them. Since these digital products are so common, is time running out for the 500-year-old watch? According to some consumers, the answer is yes. New Jersey teenager Charlie Wollman says a watch is “an extra piece of equipment with no necessary function. ” Many young adults think so and use their smart phones to tell time. It is said that fewer young people wear watches today than ten years ago. As a result, some people say that the watch industry is at a crossroads.However, watchmakers optimistically say that watches redeem（挽回）popularity when consumers reach their 20s and 30s. By then, they are willing to spend money on a quality watch that doesnt just keep good time. Fifty years ago, watchmakers took pride in their products accuracy（精确性）. But in recent years, the watch industry has changed itself into an accessory(配饰) business. And today, the image a watch conveys has become more important than the time it tells.“Complications” features that go beyond simple timekeeping are an important part of a watchs image. Todays watches offer lots of features that meet almost any personality. These features include compasses, USB drivers, and even other functions that measure the effectiveness of golf swings!Creativity also plays a key role in designing todays watches. For example, Japanese watchmaker Tokyoflash makes watches that dont even look like watches. The companys popular Shinshoku model uses different color lights to tell time. It looks more like a fashionable bracelet than a watch.Whether a watch conveys fashion sense, creative talent or a love of sports, consumers want their watches to stand out. Nowadays, everyone has the same kind of gadget（小玩意） in their bags, so people want to make a statement with whats on their wrists. Will this interest in wrist fashion last? Only time will tell!37What can we know from the first paragraph?AAs most people see, watches are out of fashion.BSome people feel that watches have been of no use.CThe watch industry will close down sooner or later.DThere are so many choices of watches for teenagers today.38According to the passage, what image does a watch convey nowadays?AIt simply tells time.BIt attracts many teenagers.CIt has many functions.DIt has an impact on creativity and imagination.39Japanese watchmaker Tokyoflash is mentioned in Paragraph 4 to _.Atell that todays watches need more creativityBadvertise Shinshoku watches made by TokyoflashCshow why Shinshoku watches are popularDmake a comparison between watches and bracelets40What may be the best title for the passage?AWatch Industry Is in a Bad SituationBJapanese Watches Stand OutCWatches Tell More Than TimeDWatches Are Becoming Less Popular第II卷（非选择题）四、提纲类作文41假设你曾是一名失学儿童，名叫李华，你有幸得到在中国工作的Peter先生的资助得以重返校园。你给Peter先生写一封感谢信，内容如下：（1）收到钱和书后重返校园，非常感激。（2）在老师的帮助和鼓励下学习有了很大的进步，决定更加努力，未来要向Peter先生学习。（3）再次表达感谢并盼望见到Peter先生。注意：1.词数100左右；2.可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；3.倌的开头和落款已给出，但不计入总词数。Dear Mr.Peter,I often think of you.How have you been recently?Im Li Hua._Yours sincerely,Li Hua五、短文改错42假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处错误，每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加：在缺词处加一个漏词符号（ ），并在其下面写出该加的词。删除；把多余的词 用斜线（ ）划掉。修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。注意：1.每处错误及修改均仅限一词；2.只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。The Dragon Boat Festival has history of over 2,000 years.
