21、   Are you shy? If you are, you are not alone. In fact, close to 50 percent of people are shy. Almost 80 percent of people feel shy at some point in their lives. These days, shyness is becoming more and more common. Now, scientists are trying to understand shyness. They have some interesting ideas about why people are shy.

Is it possible to be born shy? Many scientists say yes. They say 15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. These babies are a little quieter and more watchful than other babies. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents. As a result, scientists think that some shyness is genetic.

Family size might cause people to be shy as well. Scientists at Harvard University studied shy children. They found that 66 percent of them had older brothers and sisters. As a result, they became shy. At the same time, children with no brothers and sisters may be shy as well. Growing up alone, they often play by themselves. They are not able to learn the same social skills as children from big families.

You may also be shy because of where you were born. When scientists studied shyness in different countries, they found surprising differences. In Japan, most people said they were shy. But in Israel, only one of three people said so. What explains the difference? One scientist says the Japanese and Israelis have different opinions of failure (失败). In Japan, when people do not succeed, they feel bad about themselves. They blame (责备) themselves for their failure. In Israel, the opposite is true. Israelis often blame failure on outside reasons, such as family, teachers, friends, or bad luck. In Israel, freedom of opinion and risk (风险) taking are strongly supported. This may be why Israelis worry less about failure and are less shy.

For shy people, it can be difficult to make friends, speak in class, and even get a good job. But scientists say you can get over your shyness. They suggest trying new things and practicing conversation. And don't forget — if you are shy, you are not the only one.

【1】What can you learn from the passage?

A.Most little babies are born shy and quiet.

B.If you are shy now, you will be shy forever.

C.Most Israeli people are shy of expressing opinions.

D.Many shy children have older brothers and sisters.

【2】What can cause shyness according to the passage?

A.Genetics, grow-ups and birthplace. B.Family size, grow-ups and failure.

C.Genetics, family size and birthplace. D.Genetics, family size and failure.

【3】What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?

A.To encourage people to study shyness more. B.To introduce the reasons why people are shy.

C.To explain why scientists study shyness. D.To show why shyness makes people fail.

22、        Stephen Hawking is one of the most famous scientists in this century. He was born in 1942. He’s a world well-known scientist and expert on space and time. Stephen is researching (研究) some very big questions, such as: How did the universe begin? How will it end?     

        Stephen was a student at Oxford University (大学). He studied Maths and Science. Then, at the age of twenty, he became sick. He was so young, but the doctors said to his family. “He has only two more years to live.” In fact, the doctors were wrong—he didn’t die. He can’t walk but he uses a wheelchair (轮椅). He can’t feed himself and get in or out of bed himself. But he refused to give in to the condition. He talks with the help of a computer. After Oxford, Stephen went to Cambridge University. Three years later, in 1965, he became a doctor of philosophy (哲学博士).

       Because of his health problems, it was difficult for him to draw diagrams (图表) or to write. So he started to think in pictures. With this new way of thinking, he became one of the most famous scientists in the world. In 1981, he met the Pope (教皇) in Rome. They talked about his ideas. Then in 1988, he wrote his first important book, A Brief History of Time. It sold more than 5.5 million copies in 33 different languages. He was once invited to China.

23、   Why is that many teenagers have energy to play computer games until late at night， but can't find the energy to get out of bed in time for school？ According to a new report， today's teenagers are getting so little sleep but their health is in danger．

This raises serious questions about whether being short of sleep is influencing children's ability to pay attention at school． Research has shown that losing even just half an hour's sleep at night can have deep influences on how children perform the next day．

So why aren't teenagers getting enough sleep？Some experts suggest that televisions， computers and mobile phones in children's bedrooms may cause problems．Instead of reading a book at bedtime，children are playing computer games，surfing the web，sending messages， or watching television．As these new pre-sleep activities have become more common，more traditional ones such as reading have become less，Dr．Luci Wiggs，a researcher at Oxford

University's Section of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry said，“One of the problems with these pre-sleep activities is that they do not have clear start and end times which leads to being short of sleep．”

Research has shown that teenagers have different sleep patterns from adults．Human bodies produce melatonin（褪黑激素）to help fall asleep． Most adults start to produce melatonin at

about 10 pm，while teenagers only begin to produce it three hours later．It is possible that this  delay in melatonin production is caused by the behaviors of teenagers such as playing with phones late at night．

Problems about sleep- who needs how much and when -are usually connected to students' achievements． But modern brain researchers say it is time that more schools wake up to both biological and social facts and make a better timetable for their teenager students．

【1】What can we learn from Paragraph 2？

A.It's very common for teenagers to have less sleep．

B.It doesn't matter if children sleep half an hour less．

C.Being short of sleep has influence on children．

D.A good night sleep at weekends helps children study well．

【2】According to Dr．Luci Wiggs，．

A.too many pre-sleep activities take up teenagers' sleeping time．

B.playing computer games before bedtimes does harm to health．

C.fewer and fewer children read books at bedtime today．

D.teenagers shouldn't watch TV before they go to sleep．

【3】What does the underlined word 'delay' mean？

A.Rushing． B.Changing． C.Putting off． D.Cutting off．

【4】What can we infer from Paragraphs 4 and 5？

A.Schools need to offer more biology classes．

B.Teenagers may be kept awake by themselves．

C.Melatonin influences teenagers' achievements．

D.It's necessary for schools to start classes later．

【5】Which can be the best title for this passage？

A.Wake Up Sleeping Teenagers

B.Let Sleeping Teenagers Lie

C.Keep Away From Electronic Products

D.How to Sleep

24、   One day a poor farmer was taking a bag of rice to town. Suddenly the bag fell off his horse on the road. He didn’t know what to do about it because it was too heavy for him to carry it by himself. He only hoped that somebody would soon pass by and help him.
