Low-cost Gifts for Mother’s Day
Gift No. 1
Offer to be your mother’s health friend. Promise to be there for all doctor’s visits
whether she has a disease or needs a regular medical check-up. Most mothers always say
there is no need, but another set if eyes and ears is always a good idea at a doctor’s visit.
The best part? This one is free.
Gift No. 2
Help your mother organize all of her medical records, which include the test results
and medical information. Put them all in one place. Be sure to make a list of all of her
medicines and what time she takes them. “Having all this information in one place could
end up saving your mother’s life,” Dr. Marie Savard said.
Gift No. 3
Enough sleep is connected with general health conditions. “Buy your mother cotton
sheets and comfortable pillows to encourage better sleep,” Savard said. “We know that
good sleep is very important to our health.”
Gift No. 4
Some gift companies such as Presents for Purpose allow you to pay it forward this
Mother’s Day by picking gifts, 10 percent of whose price you pay goes to a charity (慈善
机构). Gift givers can choose from a wide variety of useful but inexpensive things —
many of which are “green” — and then choose a meaningful charity from a list. When
your mother gets the gift she will be told that she has helped the chosen charity.
21. What are you advised to do for your mother at doctor’s visits?
A. To take notes. B. To be with her. C. To buy medicines. D. To give
her gifts.
22. Where can you find an idea for gifts to improve your mother’s sleep?

help
B
Are you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon? Many people feel
this way after lunch. They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness.
Or,in summer,they may think it is the heat. However,the real reason lies inside their
bodies. At that time—about six hours after you wake up—your body temperature goes
down. This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep
habits in experiments where there was no night or day. The people in these experiments
almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern. They slept for one long period and
then for one short period about eight hours later.
In many parts of the world,people take naps (小睡) in the middle of the day. This is
especially true in warmer climates,where the heat makes work difficult in the early
afternoon. Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any climate.
A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in
general.
In countries where naps are traditional,people often suffer less from problems such
as heart disease. Many working people,unfortunately,have no time to take naps. Though
doctors may advise taking naps,employers don't follow it! If you do have the
chance,however,here are a few tips about making the most of your nap. Remember that
the best time to take a nap is about six hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in
the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward. This can also happen
if you sleep for too long. If you do not have enough time,try a short nap — even ten
minutes of sleep can be helpful.
24.Why do you sometimes feel sleepy in the early afternoon?
A.Because your body temperature goes down at that time.
B.Because you didn't have a good sleep last night.
C.Because you eat too much for lunch.
D.Because it's hot in summer.
25.What can we learn about “naps” according to the last paragraph?
A.Doctors need to take naps while employers don't.
B.Taking naps regularly is beneficial to people's health.
C.If you take naps every day,you'll never suffer from heart disease.
D.All the people in warmer climates take naps in the middle of the day.
26.What can we infer from the passage?
A.If you get up at 6:30 am,you'd better take a nap at about 12:30 pm.
B.Taking a nap whenever you want will do good to your health.
C.You will feel less sleepy if you sleep for a long time.
D.You'll feel sleepy at regular intervals.
27.What would be the best title for the text?
A.All for a Nap B.Just for a Rest
C.A Special Sleep Pattern D.Taking Naps in Warmer
Climates
C
Nobody needs reminding that exercise is good for our health, but we may need
reminding that it needs to be done in the right way.
Light exercises are a great way to improve circulation and keep our muscles active,
especially if the rest of the day will be spent sitting in front of a computer or in a lecture
hall. However, certain sports like long distance running require training to build up our
bodies so they can handle the challenge. If we go into such sport cold, it can shock our
muscles, hearts, lungs, and other organs and cause severe pain or in some cases, even
death.
Some people are born with medical conditions that go unnoticed until they stress
the unstable part of their body. A weak heart may never be seen until we do something
that causes extreme physical effort. Recently there have been cases of people dying
while running long distances. Also, a university student died after taking a 1.000m
running exam. Some universities and high schools have cut long distance races (i.e.
3.000m, 5,000m) from their campus sports games, partly because of the supposed
danger and partly because they say fewer people are entering such events.
Maybe education about such events is lacking, especially during primary and high
school. People participating in such competitions should realize that a reasonable
amount of training is required beforehand and having a medical check is wise,
especially for a marathon. People shouldn’t be forced to participate in events that push
them past their limits, especially if they haven’t warmed-up completely. Cancelling
events could lead to people becoming less healthy and overweight. Maybe these events
shouldn’t be cancelled, but organizers and participants should be more careful about
regular health checks.
28.Why does the author write the text?
A.To persuade us to take less sports. B.To give us some reminding
on exercises.
C.To advise students to have regular exercises. D.To require cancelling long
distance running.
29.What does the underlined word “cold” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Having trained a lot. B.In an unfriendly way.
C.Without any preparation. D.Having a low temperature.
30.Why do some universities and schools cancel long distance races?
A.Because no students are willing to enter such events.
B.Because long distance running is not fit for students.
C.Because they worry about the supposed danger in such races.
D.Because the students’ physical conditions are too poor to finish them.
31.What does the author advise us to do before running a marathon?
A.Try to lose some weight first. B.Push ourselves past our
limits.
C.Participate in it confidently. D.Have a medical check and
warm-up exercises.
D
Jimmy is an automotive mechanic (汽修工) but he lost his job a few months ago.
He has good heart, but always feared applying for a new job.
One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His
appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office
where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre
of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car. Jimmy immediately went
up to lend him a hand. When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him
how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he
just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man
said,“Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It’s the least I could do.
Please. I insist.”Jimmy agreed.
Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applications waiting to be interviewed.
Jimmy still had some grease (润滑油) on him after the car repair, but he did not have
much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the
interviewer’s office with disappointed look on their faces. Finally his name was called.
The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair
back and forth, he asked, “Do you really need to be interviewed?”Jimmy’s heart
sank.“With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?”he thought to
himself.
Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Jimmy’s surprise, it was the old man
he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he was the General Manager of the
company.
“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to
have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into the office. I just know
you’d be a trustworthy worker. Congratulations!”Jimmy sat down and they shared a cup
of well-deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job.
32. What did Jimmy see on the way to the interview?
A. A friend’s car had a flat tyre. B. A wild man was pushing a
car.
C.An old man’s car broke down. D. A terrible car accident
happened.
33. Why did the old man offer Jimmy a ride?
A. He was thankful to Jimmy. B. He was also to be
interviewed.
C. He always helped people in need. D. He needed a traveling
companion.
34. How did Jimmy feel on hearing the interviewer’s question?
A. The interviewer was very rude. B. He regretted helping the old
man. C. He was sorry for the other applicants. D. There
was no hope for him to get the job.
35. What can we learn from Jimmy’s experience?
A.Two heads are better than one. B. Good is rewarded with
good.
C. Where there’s a will, there’s a way. D. A friend in need is a friend
indeed.

项为多余选项。
Travelling with friends can be an absolutely amazing experience where you could
make lifelong memories or it could end up ruining your friendship. 36 Here are
some rules you should follow to make sure your next trip with friends goes as smoothly
as possible.
37 Sure,you and your friends probably have some similar interests,but that’s
not always the case. In an effort to keep everyone happy,go over travel plans and
expectations ahead of time. Have each person categorize activities or sights
into“must—see”“want to see”and“would go if we have time”. Plan accordingly and
make sure everyone can see some of their top attractions.
Communicate and respect each other. Everyone has personal preferences when
travelling—from getting the bed closest to the bathroom or sitting in the airplane’s
window seat. But sometimes things don’t go as you like. In this case,share your
requirements directly with your travel companions. 38 Have a conversation
when problems arise,for communication is the key.
Don’t disappear. When travelling with a group—or even just one other
person—you may want some alone time. That’s completely fine,but make sure your
friends know where you are and have a way of contacting you. 39
Get off your phone. Of course,your friends will understand if you need to take a
call from a family member,or in the event of a work emergency,but other than that,try to
stay off your phone. 40 After all,the appeal of this type of trip is to spend time
with friends. Just enjoy it!
A. Give each other some space.
B. Include at least one activity for everyone.
C. And remember that consideration and respect go a long way.
D. At the same time,listen to their concerns and be respectful of them.
E. Don’t respond to non-urgent work contact or send messages frequently.
F. It’s especially true of travelling in foreign countries or unfamiliar places.
G. So it's important to make sure you and your friend(s)are on the same page.
