27、Marvel at These Freaks of Nature

The world is filled with unique, breathtaking sites-from boiling craters to caves full of lightning bugs. While a global disease or natural disasters shock our soul, we might not appreciate nature.

01 Fly Geyser （Washoe County, Nevada）

This geyser in northern Nevada, found surrounded by fields of grass was created by accident when a geothermal power company drilled a test well（井)）where the geyser now sits in 1964. The combination of calcium carbonate deposits （碳酸钙沉淀物）and extremely hot water resulted in three nearly 6-foot-high, brightly colored red an« green hills that shoot hot water into the air.

02 The Marble Caves （Aysen,  Chile）

These caves --accessible only by boat - sit in the heart of Patagonia and wen formed over 6.000 years as water continued to splash against the solid rock formations to create these unique blue marble formations.

03 Lake Sorvagsvatn （Vagar, The Faroe Islands）

This freshwater lake is famous for its appearance of " floating above the ocean. Though it's actually not even 100 feet above sea level, from various camera angles, the lake looks like it is hundreds of feet above the ocean because of its juxtaposition（并列） with a dramatic waterfall and the cliff to its side.

28、   Getting less sleep has become a bad habit for most American kids. According to a new survey(调查) by the National Sleep Foundation, 51% of kids aged 10 to 18 go to bed at 10 pm or later on school nights, even though they have to get up early. Last year the Foundation reported that nearly 60% of 7- to 12-year-olds said they felt tired during the day, and 15% said they had fallen asleep at school.

How much sleep you need depends a lot on your age. Babies need a lot of rest: most of them sleep about 18 hours a day! Adults need about eight hours. For most school-age children, ten hours is ideal(理想的). But the new National Sleep Foundation survey found that 35% of 10- to 12-year-olds get only seven or eight hours. And guess what almost half of the surveyed kids said they do before bedtime? Watch TV.

“More children are going to bed with TVs on, and there are more opportunities(机会) to stay awake, with more homework, the Internet and the phone,” says Dr. Mary Carskadon, a sleep researcher at Brown University Medical School. She says these activities at bedtime can get kids all excited and make it hard for them to calm down and sleep. Other experts say part of the problem is chemical. Changing levels of body chemicals called hormones not only make teenagers’ bodies develop adult characteristics, but also make it hard for teenagers to fall asleep before 11 pm.

Because sleepiness is such a problem for teenagers, some school districts have decided to start high school classes later than they used to. Three years ago, schools in Edina, Minnesota, changed the start time from 7:25 am to 8:30 am. Students, parents and teachers are pleased with the results.

【1】What is the general idea of the first paragraph?

A.All American kids get less sleep.

B.American kids have bad habits.

C.Most Americans kids get less sleep and the bad influence of it.

D.American kids feel asleep in class.

【2】Which of the following statements is correct?

A.When you sleep depends on your age.

B.Most children watch TV before they sleep.

C.Some children are lacking in sleep.

D.Adults will be healthier if they get more sleep.

【3】Why do children find it hard to fall asleep?

A.They get too excited before 11p.m.

B.Hormones get high at night.

C.Their bodies develop adult characteristics.

D.They may watch too much TV.

【4】What is the solution to the problem of sleepiness among children?

A.Urging them to sleep earlier.

B.Not allowing them to watch TV before sleep.

C.Getting up later than before.

D.Not going to school earlier.

【5】What is the author’s attitude toward the change of school start time?

A.Objective B.Indifferent

C.Positive D.Negative

29、   As we approach Father’s Day, Let’s be real about it.

Everyone needs a father to be born, but not everyone can have a father while growing up.

Some fathers are too busy; others get divorced, disappear or die.

But almost everyone should have a father image—someone who lives up to what a father should be.

A father image is a role model—someone you want to be like. He fills you with the memories that never leaves you when you grow up.

My father image was Harold, who was in his twenties when I was10 years old. I was a foster child (收养的孩子) and lived in his home with his mother.

He had dark, curly hair and always wore a beautiful suit, a shirt and a tie. What made him my role model was that he knew my darkest secrets—even stuff my real father didn't know—and he told me things no other person would tell a little boy.

Harold dressed the store windows at Gertz Department Store in Jamaiva, N. Y., and every time I went to visit him he gave me a quarter.

I wanted to be exactly like him. I even walked like him. He always called me “Kiddo”, a name I call people I like to this day.

My friends had role models like Joe DiMaggio, Lou Gehring, Joe Lewis and other sports figures. I chose Harold, because he was a real person and he chose to be my mentor (指导者).

Harold, as you may have guessed, is now in Heaven ( Where else would he be?), but I think about him a lot. And whenever I have a problem, I ask myself, “What would Harold do?”

That is the reason a father role model is so important to a boy or a girl, It's a learning experience for everyone.

I guess the reason why I am writing all this is that I think there should be a Father's Day when everyone honors the person who has a lifelong impact(影响) on him. I believe every child needs just one to change his life－Happy Father's Day

【1】In the author's opinion, what should the image of a father be except______?

A.a father should be patient B.a father should tell me what is right and what is wrong

C.a father should be like sports figures D.a father should have a lifelong influence on his kid

【2】Joe DiMaggio is________?

A.his friend’s father B.a sports star C.the author’s father D.a mentor

【3】How is Harold now?

A.He is working in a department store. B.He is in Heaven now.

C.He is dead now. D.The author doesn't know where is he now.

【4】Which is not the author’s attitude towards Harold?

A.Love. B.Respect. C.Miss. D.Hate.
