Posted 5/ 15 /20 6：25PM

Posted 5 / 16 /20 7：46PM
I heard that the seniors in the nursing home couldn’t see their families and friends very often, so my friends and I've decided to cheer up the elderly by writing them letters. We want them to know that nobody is being forgotten. By now more than 100 students in my school have joined us.

Ask yourself, “Why do you work so hard？What motivates you to do so ” Most of you may say a single word to answer both the questions: Family.
All of us inherit our physical features from our parents. However, when you start interacting with the outside world, you realize that they are not enough to ensure your success, not even your survival. It is the values passed on to you by your family such as patience, care, understanding and commitment that make your survival and growth possible.
You may or may not be aware, but your family was the first school you entered. “Survival of the fittest” is the golden rule in this world. In other words, “Let the unfit perish” is the motto. When you stepped into this world, you were unfit to survive on your own. From the first day you came into the world, you started learning about love, care and family relationships at home. For example, by observing your family members, you learned how family relationships work. As time went on, you matured and started taking note of other people outside your family and how your family members interacted with them. You also noticed how your family dealt with the ups and downs of life.
What you learned from your family becomes your value system and forms your perceptions and basis of actions. A person is known by his actions. It is your family that gave you an identity. Whenever you move from one place to another, you carry your family history with you. Have you ever noticed that your opinions always confirmed to the values you acquired from your family
Every person’s relation to his family is similar to the earth’s relation to its environment, which acts as a protective layer. For a person, the importance of family is beyond calculation. The saying goes that you can choose your friends but you can’t choose your family. Spend your life showing those you love that they will always be family no matter what happens.
24. Your family can help you survive by________.
A. providing more love for you B. shaping your personality
C. introducing you to the outside world D. improving your school education
25. According to the passage, a person represents________.
A. the unity of his family B. his family benefits
C. his family relationships with others D. the behavior pattern of his family
26. Like the environment to the earth, a family________.
A. is an interactive system B. encourages its members to work hard
C.provides security for its members D. is full of challenges
27. What is the passage mainly about
A. The development of a person. B. How to survive the hardship
C. The importance of family. D. What’s a family
C
When homework and tests keep you up late at night, you may plan to make up for your lost sleep during the weekends. But is it useful
A study published in the journal Current Biology shows that the habit of sleeping in on weekends doesn’t fix the damage that has been done by a lack of sleep during the week. Even worse, it may damage your health.
In the study, which was conducted over 10 days, 36 healthy young men and women with different sleep requirements were divided into three groups. The first group were asked to sleep nine hours a night and the second group five hours a night. The members of the third group slept for five hours on weekdays but rested as long as they wanted on the weekend.
The researchers found that people who lacked sleep ate more snacks and gained weight quickly. However, this wasn’t the case for the first group.
That could be partially due to the shifting of the biological clock and changes to certain body hormones, especially hunger hormones. In order to catch up on their sleep during weekends, people in the third group would eat later as a habit. So their biological clocks shifted, which also changed the production of hunger hormones.
“The hormone leptin(瘦素) decreases appetite(胃口), while the hormone ghrelin(饿素) increases appetite,” explained US researcher Vsevolod Polotsky. “Sleep shortage causes leptin to drop and ghrelin to rise, so you’re hungry and eat more.”
And even if they tried to sleep for as long as they wanted to during weekends, according to researchers, it was still not enough because they found it difficult to fall asleep.
Moreover, short and insufficient sleep schedules will lead to an inability to change blood sugar and increase the risk of metabolic(新陈代谢) disease in the long term.
28.Which of the following is true about the study
A.Participants were divided into two groups.
B.Researchers studied 36 children and adults.
C.It lasted for more than two weeks.
D.Each group follow different sleep requirements.
29.What does the underlined word “shifting” in Paragraph 5 probably mean
A.changing B.lacking C.increasing D.shortening
30.Why may people without enough sleep eat more
A.They need to create more energy. B.There is less leptin in their bodies.
C.They have a lower blood sugar. D.Their bodies produce less hormones.
31.What can be a suitable title for this passage
A.Appetite Affects our Sleep Quality B.Sleeping in Causes Weight Loss
C.Catching up on Sleep Harms Our Body D.Men and Women Sleep Differently
D
Chinese President Xi Jinping announced on July 31 that China's BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (北斗卫星导航系统)(BDS) has been completed and has started providing fill-scale global services that day.
In the 1990s, Chinese government approved and began research and development of a space-based navigation and positioning system aimed at casing the country's heavy dependence on foreign networks. The system is called “BeiDou”. The government has planned a three-step strategy for developing the BDS.
The construction of BDS-1, the first step of the strategy, started in 1994 and was completed in 2000.The BDS-2 system started construction in 2004. By 2012, a total of 14 satellites had been launched to complete the deployment (部署). In November2017.China launched the first two satellites for the BDS-3 system, which started construction in 2009, and officially expanded its regional navigation system into a global network.
In late June, the final satellite to complete BeiDou's third-generation network was lifted by a Long March 3B carrier rocket. After in-orbit tests over the past month, the satellite recently started its formal operations.
Since 2000, 59 BeiDou satellites, including the first four experimental ones, have been launched from Xichang on 44 Long March 3-series rockets, with some of them having retired.
BeiDou began providing services for civilian users in China and other parts of the Asia-Pacific region in December 2012.At the end of 2018, it started providing basic global services. BeiDou offers accurate positioning, navigation and timing, as well as short message communication without the support of a mobile network. The BDS system has helped the country fight against floods, assisting in deformation monitoring, early warning and resident transfer. The services are used in various fields.
It offers an alternative to Russia's GLONASS and the European Union's Galileo system, as well as the United States' GPS.
The operating of BeiDou's full-scale global services is a significant milestone in China's efforts to boost science and technology and strengthen its space industry. The move is a major contribution to the global public-service infrastructure (基础设施) as well as a remarkable strategic achievement of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.
32.How many navigation systems are mentioned in this passage
A. 2. B. 3. C. 4. D. 5.
33. Which is the function of the BDS according to the passage
A. Offering services in every field. B. Offering cell phone communication.
C. Offering early earthquake warnings. D. Offering vehicle navigation.
34. What do we know about the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System(BDS)
A. In the BDS, there are 59 satellites in service.
B. The BDS will replace GPS in the near future.
C. The BDS is a great contribution to the whole world.
D. It took China more than 30 years to construct the BDS.
35. What's the best title for the passage
A. The best Navigation Satellite System-BeiDou
B. One small step for China, a giant leap for mankind
C. China's BeiDou System begins its full-scale global services
D. The origin of the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System
