When my daughter Sally was five, I bought Grimm’s Fairy Tales and read Snow White to her one night. At the end of the original Grimm tale, Snow White’s stepmother is made to put on red-hot iron shoes and dance until she falls down dead.
This came as something of a shock. I always thought fairytales had happy endings. And I didn’t want my five-year-old daughter going to sleep thinking: “Thank goodness they tortured (折磨) that old woman to death.” That’s when I decided to write fairy tales.
In the years that followed, I wrote tales non-stop and read them to Sally at bedtime. The Corn Dolly was based on a child who was always complaining; The Silly King was just a silly story Sally loved; I wrote The Witch and the Rainbow Cat for Sally because of her enormous appetite for stories about witches while Dr Bonocolus’s Devil is a new version of the Faust legend.Nicobobinus, however, was different. I wrote this book when Sally was older and took up all things girls have to do — who’s friends with who, who stuck a sticker on the back of whose boyfriend, or whatever thing she felt funny.
Nicobobinus, the boy who could do anything, came out of my desire for a more innocent world. He lived a 1ong time ago, in a city called Venice. Only his best friend, Rosie, knew he could, and nobody took any notice of anything Rosie said, because she was always having wild ideas anyway. Nicobobinus was so different that it turned out to be an instant hit. The Times called me “an author setting out to rival the classic fairytales”. I asked Sally what she thought of Nicobobinus. She said it was her favourite.
4. What led the writer to start writing fairy tales for her daughter?
A. The frightening ends of past fairy tales.
B. His daughter’s strong interest in fairy tales.
C. His desire to let his daughter know more stories.
D. His attempt to fill his daughter’s bedtime with something.
5. We can infer from the third paragraph that the writer _____.
A. was a very productive fairy tale writer.
B. based all his stories on some old legends.
C. never described witches in his fairy tales.
D. created his stories out of his own interest.
6. When creating Nicobobinus, the first thing the writer considered was _____.
A. what story the publisher wanted to get.
B. the changes of his daughter’s interests.
C. ways to keep his daughter Sally innocent.
D. the difference of the story from other stories.
7. The underlined word “rival” in the last paragraph can be replaced by _____.
A. follow B. explore C. challenge D. recommend
C
Try this: For an entire day, forget about the clock. Eat when you’re hungry and sleep when you’re tired. What do you think will happen?
You may be surprised to find that your day is much like most other days. You’ll probably get hungry when you normally eat and tired when you normally sleep. Even though you don’t know what time it is, your body does.These patterns of daily life are called circadian rhythms(生理节奏), and they are more than just habits. Inside our bodies are several clocklike systems that follow a roughly 24-hour cycle. Throughout the day and night, our inner clocks direct changes in temperature, body chemicals, hunger, sleepiness and more.
Everyone’s rhythms are different, which is why you might like to stay up late while your sister always wants to go to bed early. But on the whole, everyone is programmed to feel tired at night and energetic during the day. Learning about our body clocks may help scientists understand why problems arise when we act out of step with our circadian rhythms. For example, traveling across time zones can make people wake up in the middle of the night. Regularly staying up late can make kids do worse in tests.
“There is a growing sense that when we eat and when we sleep are important parts of how healthy we are,” says Steven Shea, director of the Sleep Disorders Program at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston.
One way to learn about how our body clocks tick is to mess them up and see what happens. That’s what neurologist(神经病学家)Frank Scheer and his workmates did in a recent study. Staying up night after night, their studies suggest, could make kids extra hungry and more likely to gain weight. And regularly sleeping too little, Scheer says, may be one cause of the recent increase in childhood obesity.
8. What will happen if you forget about the clock according to the passage?
A. You will feel upset.
B. You will behave normally.
C. Your body will not know what time it is.
D. You will probably get hungry more easily.
9. Mike feels energetic at 12 midnight while Tom feels sleepy. What advice would be given by the writer?
A. Both should see a doctor.. B. Tom should see a doctor.
C. Both should take it easy. D. Mike should have a watch.
10. How do Frank Scheer and his workmates study body clocks?
A. By seeing what happens when they are messed up.
B. By asking questions and collecting answers.
C. By studying people traveling across time zones.
D. By programming people with man-made clocks.
11. What will the writer most probably talk about next?[来源:学科网]
A. Other examples of what people will do when their body clocks go wrong.
B. Some effective medicines that can keep people from putting on weight.
C. Why it is important to have a normal body clock.
D. What circadian rhythms are and how they work.
D
Have you ever run into a careless cell phone user on the street? Perhaps they were busy talking, texting or checking updates on WeChat without looking at what was going on around them. As the number of this new “species” of human has kept rising, they have been given a new name — phubbers(低头族).
Recently, a cartoon created by students from China Central Academy of Fine Arts put this group of people under the spotlight. In the short film, phubbers with various social identities(身份) bury themselves in their phones. A doctor plays with his cell phone while letting his patient die, a pretty woman takes selfie (自拍照) in front of a car accident site, and a father loses his child
without knowing about it while using his mobile phone. A chain of similar events eventually leads to the destruction of the world.
Although the ending sounds overstated, the damage phubbing can bring is real. Your health is the first to bear the effect and result of it. “Constantly bending your head to check your cell phone could damage your neck,” Guangming Daily quoted doctors as saying. “the neck is like a rope that breaks after long-term stretching.” Also, staring at cell phones for long periods of time will damage your eyesight gradually, according to the report.
But that’s not all. Being a phubber could also damage your social skills and drive you away from your friends and family. At reunions with family or friends, many people tend to stick to their cell phones while others are chatting happily with each other and this creates a strange atmosphere, Qilu Evening News reported.
It can also cost you your life. There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death, suffered accidents, and were robbed of their cell phones in broad daylight.
12. For what purpose does the author give the example of a cartoon in Paragragh2?
A. To inform people of the bad effects of phubbing.
B. To advertise the cartoon made by students.
C. To indicate the world will finally be destroyed by phubbers.
D. To warn doctors against using cell phones while treating patients.
13. Which of the following is NOT a risk a phubber may have?
A. His social skills could be affected.
B. His neck and eyesight will be gradually harmed.
C. He will cause the destruction of the world.
D. He might get separated from his friends and family.
14. Which of the following may be the author’s attitude towards phubbing?
A. Supportive. B. Opposed. C. Optimistic. D. Objective.
15. What may the passage talk about next?
A. Advice on how to use a cell phone.
B. People who are addicted to phubbing.
C. Measures to reduce the risks of phubbing.
D. The possible consequences of phubbing.

While happiness does not happen by chance, you don’t need to change our entire life to find it. Start your journey to a happier you by developing these easy habits.
Work Out Often

书面表达参考答案:(124 words)
Dear Jack,
Recently, I have heard that you feel stressed about study. I would like to offer you some advice on how to study effectively.
Firstly, you should learn in a relaxing way, which will ease your pressure and make your study become easier. One way to keep your spirits up, I believe, is to regularly participate in sports. Not only does exercise build up the body, but also it provides you time to relax and refresh yourself. Listening to music, undoubtedly, is another effective means of being beneficial to mind and body.
Last but not least, you are supposed to exchange ideas with your classmates and friends so that you can find support and encouragement to overcome difficulties.
Keep trying, and you will make it.
Yours,
Li Hua
