Some people like to get up late, but some do not. In fact, it is really good for us to get up early every day. Maybe those who don’t like getting up early will not believe this, but it is true.
Scientists made a survey in about one thousand people, and then they found that early rising people had less disease than late rising people, and early rising people also looked healthier than late rising people, and so on.
So we may know early rising is helpful in more than one way. First, it helps to keep us healthy. We all need fresh air. But air is never as fresh as early in the morning. Besides, it is useful to do morning exercises.
Secondly, early rising helps us in our studies. In the morning we learn more quickly and find it easier to understand what we learn.
Thirdly, early rising can give us a plan of our work for the day. We cannot work well without a good plan.
Fourthly, early rising gives us enough time to get ready for our work^ such as to wash our hands and faces and eat our breakfast.
Late risers may find it difficult to form the habit of early rising. They have to make an effort (努力)to do so. As the English proverb says, “Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise?”
Judge the following sentences true (T) or false (F) according to the passage.
People don’t always agree on whether to get up early.
   In the passage the writer gives four reasons for early rising.
   Early rising makes people happier according to the passage.
Early risers don’t look as healthy as late risers.
The writer encourages people not to sleep late.

“If we don’t often wash our hands, we can pick up viruses(病毒)form many places and make ourselves ill,” a man from CDC says. Doctors always say every time when you touch your eyes, nose or mouth, you may be ill. In fact, one of the common(平常的) ways of catching a cold is by rubbing(擦拭)their noses or their eyes when there are viruses on their hands. If you don’t often wash your hands, especially when you’re sick, you may spread the viruses to others. You should wash your hands in these situations:
1. After using the washroom
2. After rubbing your nose or coughing.
3. Before eating or making food.
4. After touching animals.
5. After visiting a sick man.
6. When your hands are dirty.
There’re right ways to wash your hands. Follow these things to keep your hands clean:
1. Use warm water (not cold or hot).
2. Wash for 15 seconds.
3. Wash well under warm running water and dry them with a clean towel.

Dear Died,

Today I was at the shopping centre and I spent a lot of time reading the Father's Day cards.But as I chose add read,and chose add read again,it seemed that not a single card said what I really wanted to you.

You'll soon be 84 years old,Dad,and you and I will have had 56 Father's Days together.I didn't think that you were too old.But the sad thing happened last week.I watched as you turned at the corner in your car.I didn't realize at once that it was you because the man who was driving looked so elderly.

Fifty years ago this spring,we planted carrots together in a garden in Charles City,Iowa.This week,we'll plant carrots together again,perhaps for the last time but I hope not.I don't understand why planting carrots with you is so important to me.Well,I don't quite know how to tell you this,dad …I don't like carrots…but I like planting them with you.

I guess what am trying to say,Dad,is what every son and daughter wants to say to their dad today.Praising a father on Father's Day is about more than a dad who brings home,money or shares a dinner.It's more about a dad deeply loving children who know everything and won't listen to anyone.It's about sharing.It's about loving someone more than words can say,and I wish that it would never end.

Lover,

Jenny.

26.Where did Jenny go today?

B.A shopping center.

C.A cinema.

Shopping is not as simple as you may think! Much has to be done for the producers before putting the products on the shelf.
Color, for example, changes a lot according to what the producers are trying to sell. Health foods are packed in greens, yellows or browns because we think of these as healthy colors.
When some kind of medicine was brought out recently, researchers found that the color of the package(包装) caused the shoppers to lose interest because they made the product look ineffective(无效的). At last, it came on the market in dark blue and white—blue because we think of it as safe, and white as calm.
The size of a package can also attract(吸引) a shopper, although quite often a bottle doesn’t hold as much as it appears to.
It is said that the better-known companies spend about 40 percent of the cost of the product itself on packaging!
The most successful producers know that it’s not enough to have a good product. The head of Pears Soap, who for 25 years has used pretty little girls to sell their goods, came to the conclusion: “Any fool can make soap, but it takes a talent to sell it.”
Health foods are usually packed in colors Except ________.

A.green B.black C.yellow D.brown

Why did the shoppers lose interest in the medicine?

A.Because of the size of the product. B.Because of the color of the product.
C.Because of the color of the package. D.Because of the cost of the product.

If a new product costs $ 60, how much money may be spent on packaging?

A.$ 24 B.$ 36 C.$ 40 D.$ 60

Which of the following is the key to the success in product sales?

A.The way to sell goods. B.A good product.
C.The one who makes a product. D.A nice color.

The passage is mainly about ___________on shopping.

A.advantages of products B.the importance of packaging
C.choices of products D.the cost of packaging

Do you collect anything?Collecting is a popular hobby with people around the world.Some people collect baseball cards,teapots,or seashells.Others collect some matchbook covers,stamps bottles or dolls.There are almost as many types of collections as there are collectors.

Coin collecting,called numismatics,is one of the oldest and most popular types of collecting.People like learning about coins and their history.They like the challenge of finding rare(稀有)or unusual coins.Some see their collections as a valuable investment.Others just enjoy the beauty and variety of their coins.

There are many different types of coin collections.Some numismatists choose to collect foreign coins.They may focus on a certain country or a certain time period when they begin their collections.Another popular way to collect is to choose a theme and then look for coins that have pictures of the animals,people,or object that fit into that theme.For example,a collector may search for coins with pictures of ships,birds or even famous people.

Some collections can become very valuable.This depends on several factors:the type of the coin,the rarity of the coin,and the need for the coin.If you own a rare coin that few people are interested in,it will be worth less than a rare coin that many people want to own.

Condition also plays an important role in deciding a coin's value.Serious collectors store their coins very carefully in special boxes.They touch their coins with special gloves.If you owned a Liberty Head coin from 1913,which is worth about one million dollars,you would probably be willing to give it special treatment,too!

If you are interested in starting a coin collection,the best thing to d is learn a little about it first.You can find books about coin collecting at the library,and you'll learn how to decide the value of various coins and store your collection properly.The next time you look through the coins in your pocket or in your piggy bank,you might find that you have the beginning of a very interesting hobby!

47.The underlined word"numismatists"in paragraph 3means  

A.stamp collectors   

B.doll collectors

C.coin collectors     

D.teapot collectors.

48.According to the last paragraph,you will probably  

A.decide where to buy rare coins

B.find the right time to collect

C.learn how to look through your coins

D.know the value of different rare coins

49.Which of the following it TRUE?  

A.Coin collecting is the oldest and most popular type of collecting.

B.Some collectors store their coins carefully to keep them in good condition.

C.The value of a rare coin completely depends on how many collectors need it.

D.If you are interested in coin collecting,the first thing to do is find a rare coin.

50.What is the passage mainly about?

Why is it that the people you meet when backpacking(背包旅行)seem to be more interesting and outgoing than your friends at home?That's my experience,anyway.Very often,you'll meet people that are fun to travel with and worth getting to know.I've spent time with people of many countries and have found out some interesting things about their cultures.It's a great way to learn more about the world.

    It's often easy to make new friends while you're traveling,and you'll be able to hang around with them for a few days,until one of you leaves for the next exciting place.Relationships of this kind are shorter but can be just as strong as friendships back home,because you do so much together in that short time.I often find I like to share things about myself that I'd never say to my close friends.It is safe,I think,because we probably won't meet again,except online.

    One thing that's important when you're backpacking is to make sure you carry only basic needs,so your backpack isn't too heavy.I travel" "light" these days.One good tip someone gave me is to take old clothes and just throw them away when you move on,instead of washing and waiting for things to dry.Many hostels(小旅社)don't provide shampoo and shower gel.You can get mini bottles in supermarkets.

    I've discovered that many backpackers visit little places other tourists don't go to,and by using local shops and guest houses,they help those places with much﹣needed financial(经济上的)support.Most small guest houses allow you to stay for unlimited time,so you can spend as long as you like exploring the local area.Backpackers are also kinder to the environment,because they use trains and buses rather than cars.So,what are you waiting for? (By Andy Robinson)

(1)According to Andy,friendships made with other backpackers   .

A.are less serious than those with his friends at home

B.end at the moment they separate from each other

C.help him to decide where he would like to travel to

D.allow him to talk about himself in an honest way

(2)Which text message would Andy send to a friend?"     

A

"Why don't you fly out to visit me?We'll stay in a famous hotel on the coast. "

B

"I'm leaving here tomorrow and then I will drive a car along the coast. "

C

"I've met some great people.Tomorrow we're going by boat to an ancient village in the mountains together. "

D

"I'm glad I filled up my backpack –I've got everything I need,though it isn't easy to carry it around!"

(3)The best title for the passage can be   .

A.Friendships on the Way

B.Traveling with a Backpack

C.A Backpacking Experience

D.Tips on Travel
