• 11．The Best Way to Nap A study published in the journal Heart found a link between healthy napping （打盹）and a lowered risk of heart disease.The American Psychological Association points out that naps can improve memory，learning capacity and mood.Sara Med nick，PhD，a neuroscience at the University of California explains that when you fall asleep，your body moves through stages that each play a role in health.Ideal napping times are based around this four-stage cycle.
  

  Stage 1	the"dozing off"（打瞌睡）period
  Stage 2	muscles，heart rate and brain activity slow down
  Stage 3	deep，restorative sleep
  Stage 4	REM（rapid eye movement）sleep，when brain activity increases and you're most likely to dream

  The 20-minute nap	Between 20 and 30 minutes is one napping sweet spot，according to Mednick，who explains that you get enough Stage 2 sleep to switch your body and mind into full relaxation mode，aiding with memory.
  The 60-minute nap	Stage 3 sleep is a time for your body to repair tissue，strengthen the immune（免疫）system and recharge energy stores.But waking up during this phase can make you feel uncomfortable and sleepy，Mednick says.Most people start to move out of Stage 3 after around 60 minutes，which makes it a good time to set your alarm.
  The 90-minute nap	A complete sleep cycle is about an hour and a half，and napping for a full cycle can have big benefits.But naps longer than 90 minutes can disturb nighttime sleep and might even weaken memory.

  Not a regular napper？That's OK."Everyone needs to rest，but not everyone necessarily needs to nap，"says Mednick.
  
  （1）During which phase may you have a dream？

  
  A．Stage 1
  B．Stage 2
  C．Stage 3
  D．Stage 4
  （2）How long may the first 3 stages last？

  
  A．A quarter.
  B．One hour.
  C．Half an hour.
  D．One and a half hours.
  （3）Which section is the text probably taken from in a newspaper？

  
  A．News.
  B．Education.
  C．Lifestyle.
  D．Health.

• 13．Seventy years ago，a group of well-known people from the art world headed by an Austrian conductor decided to hold an international festival of music，dance and theatre in Edinburgh.The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.
     It quickly attracted famous names such as Alec Guinness，Richard Burton，Dame Margot Fonteyn and Marlene Dietrich as well as the big symphony orchestras（交響樂團）.It became a fixed event every August and now attracts 400，000 people yearly.
     At the same time，the "Fringe" appeared as a challenge to the official festival.Eight theatre groups turned up uninvited in 1947，in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform，and they did so in a public house disused for years.
     Soon，groups of students firstly from Edinburgh University，and later from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge，Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to Edinburgh each summer to perform theatre by little-known writers of plays in small halls to the local people.
     Today the "Fringe"，once less recognised，has far outgrown the festival with around 1，500 performances of theatre，music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts.And yet as early as 1959，with only 19 theatre groups performing，some said it was getting too big.
     A paid administrator was first employed only in 1971，and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself.In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1，695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries.More than 1.25 million tickets were sold.
  
  （1）What was the purpose of Edinburgh Festival at the beginning？

  
  A．To introduce young theatre groups.
  B．To honour heroes of World WarⅡ.
  C．To attract great artists from Europe.
  D．To bring Europe together again.
  （2）Why did some uninvited theatre groups come to Edinburgh in 1947？

  
  A．They owned a public house there.
  B．They wanted to take part in the festival.
  C．They thought they were also famous.
  D．They came to take up a challenge.
  （3）Who joined the "Fringe" after it appeared？

  
  A．Popular writers.
  B．Artists from around the world.
  C．University students.
  D．Performers of music and dance.
  （4）We may learn from the text that Edinburgh Festival

  .

• 14．    Rainforests provide much of the world's oxygen.People have been trying to protect them for years.But another type of forest，the cloud forest，is just as important to humans.
     These forests are at the tops of mountains，generally near the equator （赤道）.These wet，wooded mountaintops are mainly in African and Central and South American countries.They are called "cloud forests" because their height allows for the formation of clouds among the trees.The trees in these forests pull water out of the clouds.The water gathers on the leaves and falls into small rivers below，which flow into towns at the bottom of the mountain.The yearly rainfall in these areas is about 180 centimetres.Cloud forests can pull in up to 60 percent of that.The water is important to the plants and the people in the area.It helps them survive.
     Cloud forests are also home to countless species of plants that can't be found anywhere else.One small cloud forest has as many types of plants as there are in all of Europe.In fact，there are so many that scientists haven't made a complete list of them yet.
     These forests are being destroyed at an increasing speed.Trees are being cut down，and roads are being built in their place.Some people have a goal to get government money to protect the forests.But they have had little success so far.Another way is to take the place of the destroyed plants with new ones.That，too，has been difficult because the plants are so special.There's plenty of work to be done，but saving the cloud forests is still possible with creative solutions.
  
  （1）Where can you probably find cloud forests？

  
  A．In North America.
  B．Far from the equator.
  C．In an African country.
  D．At the foot of mountains.
  （2）What is the main idea of paragraph 3？

  
  A．Europe is short of plant types.
  B．Scientists are working on a list.
  C．Cloud forests are getting smaller.
  D．Cloud forests house many plants.
  （3）What will be discussed in the following part of the text？

  
  A．Ways to protect cloud forests.
  B．Goals of cloud forest protectors.
  C．Difficulties in planting new trees.
  D．Successes of getting wide support.
  （4）Where can we probably find the text？

  
  A．In a storybook.
  B．In a travel guide.
  C．In a chemistry textbook.
  D．In a geography magazine.

• 15．Imagine a child standing on a diving board four feet high and asking himself the question： "Should I jump？" This is what motivation or the lack of it can do.Motivation and goal setting are the two sides of the same coin.（1）

  Like the child on the diving board，you will stay undecided.
     （2）

  More than that，how should you stay motivated to achieve the goal？First，you need to evaluate yourself，your values，your strengths，your weaknesses，your achievements，your desires，etc.Only then should you set your goals.
     You also need to judge the quality and depth of your motivation.This is quite important，because it is directly related to your commitment.There are times when your heart is not in your work.（3）

  So，slow down and think what you really want to do at that moment.Clarity （清晰） of thoughts can help you move forward.
     Another way of setting realistic goals is to analyze your short and long term objectives，keeping in mind your beliefs，values and strengths.Remember that goals are flexible.（4）

  They also need to be measurable.You must keep these points in mind while setting your goals.
     Your personal circumstances are equally important.For example，you may want to be a pilot but can't become one because your eyesight is not good enough.（5）

  You should reassess your goals，and motivate yourself to set a fresh goal.
     You will surely need to overcome some difficulties，some planned，but most unplanned.You cannot overcome them without ample motivation.Make sure that you plan for these difficulties at the time of setting your goals.
  
  A.This can affect your work.
  B.So how should you motivate yourself？
  C.However，this should not discourage you.
  D.So why should we try to set specific goals？
  E.They can change according to circumstances.
  F.Motivation is what you need most to do a good job.
  G.Without motivation，you can neither set a goal nor reach it.

      Chris looked at the clock again.Only five more minutes before school let out.
      Just now，his Creative Learning teacher，Mrs.Griswell asked them to be prepared to share their favorite hobby with the class on Friday.And they were supposed to bring samples for show.
      Chris sighed.No way am I going to talk about my favorite hobby，he thought.His older brother，Wes，laughed at him about it enough- -and his dad didn't think much of it，either.
      On the bus，Chris heard others talking about the "hobby thing".Brian said he was going to bring his bowling trophies（保齡球獎杯）.Chris turned back around in his seat so he wouldn't have to talk to him anymore.
      "Don't believe him，" Nick whispered. "He's the worst bowler I've ever seen.He borrows the trophies from his dad，I guess.He's rally fake."
      At home，Chis pulled out his boxes of baseball cards.He liked baseball，even played some.But his real hobby let him express things from his imagination，and that's what he liked most.Sorting through his cards，Chris began choosing some of the best ones.Yet he didn't feel right about what he had decide.
      Tuesday passed.Chris gathered his baseball supplies and put them in a grocery bag marked "My Favorite Hobby".He was ready for Friday，but something still felt wrong.He walked out of his room，ignoring the sketchpad（草圖本） on his desk.
      Wednesday.After school Chris sat at the kitchen table with a sandwich，but he wasn't hungry.He didn't want to be fake like Brian，but he wasn't sure he had the courage to tell everyone his real hobby.What would the guys think of him？
      He chewed his sandwich slowly，thinking of Grandma.She was the reason he'd gotten interested in his hobby in the first place."You have talent，" Grandma had told him proudly，admiring his work.And that felt really good.
      Suddenly，Chris knew what he had to do.He dropped his sandwich on the plate and rushed to the phone. "Hi，Grandma，it's Chris.I need your help."
