24、Sleep is like food for the brain. Enough sleep helps the body and brain grow and develop. According to the National Sleep Foundation in the US, adults need seven to nine hours of sleep every night. For students aged 10 to 17, a healthy amount is about eight to nine hours per night.

But many students don’t get enough sleep because of early school start times and heavy homework. About 80 percent of middle school students don’t get enough sleep, the China Youth and Children Research Center reported. For some students, they want to sleep early, but they keep worrying about their schoolwork and can’t fall asleep quickly. For others, they may even have insomnia which might keep them awake all night.

These sleeping problems greatly affect people’s lives. Experts have shown that lack of sleep for teenagers leads to poor grades. Students without enough sleep cannot pay attention in class or do well in sports. Also, the lack of sleep may make them depressed (沮丧的).

Luckily, with good sleep habits, it is easier to fall asleep. Some of these good habits include avoiding drinks that make people excited late in the day, going to sleep at the same time each night, and sleeping in a comfortable place that is dark, quiet, and neither too warm nor too cold.

【1】If Li Hong is 15years old, how much sleep does she need every night?

A. 10-12 hours. B. 8-9 hours.

C. 7-8 hours. D. Less than 7 hours.

【2】______ if teens don’t get enough sleep?

A. They might do well in sports.

B. Their bodies and brains might grow better.

C. They might feel upset.

D. They might not be able to finish their schoolwork.

【3】The underlined word “insomnia” means “_______” in Chinese.

A. 健忘症 B. 肥胖症

C. 多动症 D. 失眠症

【4】Which of the following are good sleeping habits?

A. a and b B. a and c

C. b and c     D. b and d

a. Sleeping in a bright place.

b. Going to bed at the same time.

c. Sleeping in a dark and quiet place.

d. Drinking something that makes you excited.

25、   The class teacher thought that hobbies were important for children. So she encouraged all her students to have one, and sometimes she arranged hobby shows for their parents to see as a result.

One morning the teacher told the class to have a holiday and get their hobby things to school before 5 p.m. A hobby show would be held the following afternoon.

So in the afternoon, the students with nothing to show did their lessons at school as usual, while the lucky ones had a holiday to go home for their hobby works.

When the afternoon lessons began, the teacher was surprised to see that Tommy was not there. “I don’t believe Tommy has a hobby,” she thought. However, at a quarter to five, Tommy arrived with a beautiful collection of butterflies (蝴蝶) in a glass case. The teacher liked the samples (标本) very much and put them on a desk in the classroom. But, to her surprise, Tommy picked them up again and began to leave.

“What are you doing, Tommy?” She asked. “Those things must stay here until tomorrow afternoon. That’s when the parents are coming to see them.”

“I know that,” answered Tommy, “and I will bring them back tomorrow, but my big brother doesn’t want them to be out of our house at night.”

“But, aren’t the butterflies yours?” asked the teacher.

“No,” answered Tommy. “They are my brother’s.”

“But Tommy, you should show your own hobby here, not somebody else’s!”

“I know that,” answered Tommy. What surprised her most was the answer. “My hobby is watching my brother collecting butterflies.”

27、In the past, Chinese buyers liked foreign brands better, thinking that products made by American or European companies are of higher quality than Chinese ones. But now that’s no longer the case.

“Chinese people born before 1985 generally think that foreign brands are better than Chinese ones, billionaire William Li told Business Insider during a recent interview on CCTV 9. But for those who were born after 1985, it is a different picture.

“When I first went to the United Kingdom in 1997, I thought that the difference between China and Europe was quite big, Li said. “But for those born in the 1990s, when they visit Europe or the US, they do not think there is a big difference.”

The change in thinking among Chinese buyers is showing up in many markets in China where western companies controlled before. A study by Credit Suisse which came out in March found that more and more young Chinese buyers are showing a home brand bias.

More than 90% of young Chinese buyers would prefer to buy home brands, according to the study. At the same time, home companies producing food, drinks, or personal care products raised their share(份额) of the market by 33% over the last ten years to nearly 70%.

“Chinese buyers, especially the younger ones, don’t just believe that foreign brands are better. Right now, Chinese buyers think China is good and ‘Made in China’ is not bad at all, Charlie Chen, head of China buyer research at Credit Suisse, told South China Morning Post in March.

The Chinese smartphone market is controlled by home companies Huawei, Oppo, Vivo, and Xiaomi. Apple is the only foreign brand in the top five, but it has lost large ground to the home brands in recent years. Its market share is believed to go down to 37% from a 2015 high of 54%.

【1】Which of the following is true according to the text?

A. More and more foreigners go to buy Chinese products.

B. Older Chinese people don’t like foreign products any more.

C. More and more Chinese buyers prefer Chinese products.

D. Huawei is the top one in the smartphone market.

【2】Which fact best explains home brand bias?

A. Apple had a market share of 54% in 2015.

B. More than 90% of young Chinese buyers prefer home brands.

C. Chinese people born before 1985 think that Chinese brands aren’t as good as foreign ones.

D. American or European brands are of higher quality

【3】Who did most of the research for this report?

A. Credit Suisse.

B. CCTV 9.

C. South China Morning Post.

D. Billionaire William Li

【4】What’s the best title for this passage?

A. Chinese products get more popular at home.

B. Young Chinese are crazy for foreign brands.

C. ‘Made in China’ is welcomed all over the world.

D. The Chinese smartphone market is controlled by home companies

Long ago in a small, faraway village, there was a place known as the House of 1000 Mirrors. A little happy dog learned of this place and decided 【1】(visit).
