【題目】閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A，B，C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
Millions of Americans return from long-distance trips by air, but their luggage doesn’t always come home with them. Airline identification tags（標(biāo)簽） can come loose, and the bags go who-knows-where. And passengers leave all kinds of things on planes.
The airlines collect the items and, for 90 days, attempt to find their owners. They don’t keep them, since they’re not in the warehouse business. And by law, the y cannot sell the bags, because the airlines might be tempted to deliberately misplace luggage.
So once insurance companies have paid for lost bags and their contents, and they no longer belong to passengers, a unique store in the little town of Scottsboro, Alabama, buys them. The “Unclaimed Baggage Center,” is so popular that the building, which is set up like a department store, is the number-one tourist attraction in all of Alabama. More than one million visitors stop in each year and take one of the store’s shopping carts on a hunt for treasures.
Each day, clerks bring out 7,000 new items, and veteran（老練的）shoppers rush to paw over them. You can find everything from precious jewels to hockey sticks, best-selling novels, leather jackets, tape recorders, surfboards, even half -used tubes of toothpaste.
The store’s own laundry washes or cleans all the clothes found in luggage, then sells them. The Unclaimed Baggage Center has found guns, illegal drugs and even a live rattlesnake.
The store has a little museum where some of its most unusual acquisitions（獲得物） have been preserved. They include highland bagpipes, a burial mask from an Egyptian pharaoh's tomb, and a medieval suit of armor.
Statistics indicate that less than one-half of one percent of luggage checked on U.S. carriers is permanently lost and available to the store.

A.they are forg etful

A.they have to find the owners
B.they are likely to make a profit on the bags on purpose

（3）The Unclaimed Baggage Center is very popular because______.
A.there's a large variety of goods.
B.all the things there are very cheap.
C.visitors may purchase something undervalued.
D.Visitors will enjoy some amusing activities there.
（4）What can we infer from the passage?
A.A little museum will keep all the precious unclaimed baggage.
B.The percentage of passengers who lose their baggage for ever is small.
C.The things in the Unclaimed Baggage Center are articles for daily use.

Depending on which type of person you are, this will be either mildly annoying or more-than-mildly exciting. As Heidi Mitchell wrote in a recent Wall Street Journal column, it’s fine to never wash your cup, as long as you’re not sharing it with anybody else.

There are two warnings to that statement, infectious-disease expert Jeffrey Strake, a professor at Baylor College of Medicine, told Mitchell; One, it only applies if you’re not sharing the cup with anybody else. And two , if you leave cream or sugar in your cup over the weekend, that can certainly cause mold(霉) to grow – in which case, wash it out.

Otherwise, though, there’s not really much to worry about. “If I went and cultured the average unwashed coffee cup, of course I would find bacteria.” Starke said. “But remember the vast majority came from the person who used the cup.” Even if you drink from it while sick, it’s pretty hard to re-infect yourself with the same cup; most viruses don’t live long outside the body, which means that just letting your cup live in its own dirt may be a safer bet than the alternative; cleaning it with the disgusting sponge(海綿) in the office kitchen “The sponge in the break room probably has the highest bacteria count of anything in the office.” Starke said if the idea of not washing horrifies you , just stick the sponge in the microwave before using. Otherwise, though, reel free to continue your lazy ways without guilt.

【1】What does the passage intend to tell us?

A. It is harmful to drink coffee with sugar.

B. It’s okay not to wash your coffee cup regularly.

C. The hot water contributes to the bacteria growing.

D. Drinking from unwashed coffee cups causes diseases easily.

【2】What do we know from Stark’s words?

A. The coffee cup in the office must be put in the microwave to clean.

B. It’s easy to get infected if you often use the same unwashed cup.

C. The coffee cup shouldn’t be shared in the office.

D. It’s good way to grow bacteria in an unwashed cup.

【3】What does the underlined part “your lazy ways” refer to ?

A. Leaving your coffee cup unwashed. B. Sticking the sponge in the microwave

C. Using Paper cups only in the office D. Cleaning your coffee cup with sponge.

【4】Where does the passage probably come from?

A. A travel brochure. B. A science magazine.

C. An official statement. D. An entertainment program.

Amanda has been awarded the Star Student for that she did for our class. Last Saturday, Amanda went to downtown and walked from one store to another, looking for the costumes we would wear in the singing contest. While the rest of us are enjoying our leisure time in the cool and comfortably room, she spent the whole afternoon searching and selecting. Finally, she found the right cloth. Deeply moved by his efforts, we tried our best and won first prize in contest.

Amanda is always warm-hearted and care a lot about the class. Besides, she often devotes her spare time to help others. She has set a good example for us. However, she deserves the honor and we should learn from her.

【題目】閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。 Each new school year brings fresh reminders of what educators call the summer learning gap. Some call it the summer learning setback. Simply speaking, it means the longer kids are out of school, the more they forget. The only thing they might gain is weight.
Most American schools follow a traditional nine-month calendar. Students get winter and spring breaks and about ten weeks of summer vacation. Some schools follow a year-round calendar. They hold classes for about e ight weeks at a time, with a few weeks off in between. The National Association for Year-Round Education says there were fewer than three thousand such schools at last count. They were spread among forty-six of the fifty states.
But many experts point out that the number of class days in a year-round school is generally the same as in a traditional school. Lead researcher Paul von Hippel said, “Year-round schools don't really solve the problem of the summer learning setback. They simply spread it out across the year.”
Across the country, research shows that students from poor families fall farther behind over the summer than other students. Experts say this can be prevented. They note that many schools and local governments offer programs that can help.
But calling them “summer school” could be a problem. The director of the summer learning center at Johns Hopkins, Ron Fairchild, said research with groups of different parents in Chicago and Baltimore found that almost all strongly disliked the term “summer school”. In American culture, the idea of summer vacation is connected to beliefs about freedom and the joys of childhood. The parents welcomed other terms like “summer camp”, “enrichment”, “extra time” and “hands-on learning”.
（1）According to the first paragraph the summer learning gap.
A.helps children to gain weight
B.leads children to work harder
C.improves children’s memories
D.affects children’s regular studies
（2）Compared to traditional schools, students in the year-round ones .
A.perform better and have more learning gains
B.have much less time for relaxation every year
C.have generally the same number of class days
D.hold more classes with more free weeks off
（3）Which of the following statements is true?
A.Students from poor families often fall behind after the vacation.
B.Year-round schools can solve the problem of the learning gap.
C.There are schools in each state following a year-round calendar.
D.Nothing can help the students who fall behind after the vocation.
（4）What would be the best title of this passage?
A.Opening Summer Camps
B.Forbidding Summer Schools
C.Spreading Year-Round Education
D.Minding the Summer Learning Gap

We're basically going through the day drunk with enough sleep ，this means tiredness, difficulty to respond quickly and smartly to something that comes up .

The sleeping hours need for an average adult range from ranges from 7 to 9 hours. Just keep in mind that your body is not wired in same way your computer is. You couldn't have instantaneous change. Let you have at least 1 to 2 weeks minimum to start sleeping a little earlier regularly. And this sort of timeline is meant for small changes, like 15 minutes to 30 minutes earlier than your current sleeping

But this is an absolutely must. Without sleep, your body and mind are weak, slow, and definitely not energetic enough to accommodate（容納）any new activities you want to do.
