三、阅读理解(共10小题:每小题2分,满分20分)
A
Recently children have been told to buy traditional alarm clocks instead of mobile phones to wake them up in the morning. Schools will advise pupils to turn off mobile phones or iPads in the evening to have enough sleep.
Researchers from a charity say that using internet-connected devices(装置) in the evening can prevent children getting more rest. Moreover, they suggest that school children should invest in a real alarm clock to make sure that they get a good night's sleep and arrive at school on time.
①The result is that 40% pupils in secondary schools can now hardly get on well without these devices. About two-thirds of pupils have a habit of taking mobile phones to bed at night.
②The study also shows that girls are more likely to be attracted by mobile phones than boys, and often use the Internet to talk to friends by social networking websites, such as Facebook and Twitter. One girl aged 12 said, "I have been told that I am addicted(上瘾的) to the Internet, and prefer being online to being with other people."
③A girl of 13 told researchers, "I can't imagine if someone takes my iPad away. I walk around the house with it even though its' not turned on. I just like being with it." Another girl added, "Sometimes I can't sleep without using the mobile phone at night."
④The charity, which was set up to promote(推动) iPads in the classroom, has now given five suggestions to protect children from being affected by electronic(电子的) devices.

“It is a shame to kill a naked cub. It may be more fun for you to kill him when he is older. Baloo spoke for him. And I can give you one fat recently killed bull(公牛) if you accept the man cub according to the law. Is it difficult to decide ”
There was a noise of many voices, saying: “Okay! He's going to die in the winter rain. He's going to burn in the summer sun.What harm can a naked frog do to us Let him run with the pack. Where is the bull, Bagheera Accept him!” And then Akela cried out: "Look well---look well, O wolves!"
Mowgli was still very interested in the stones,and he did not notice when the wolves came and looked at him one by one. At last they all went down the hill for the dead bull, and only Akela, Bagheera, Baloo, and Mowgli's wolf family were left. Shere Khan roared all night. He was angry because the wolves accepted Mowgli in the pack.
“You can roar(吼叫) now,”said Bagheera, under his whiskers(连鬓胡子).“But soon this naked thing is
going to make you roar to another tune(方式), or I know nothing about man.”
“It was a good decision,” said Akela.“Men and their cubs are very wise.He may be a help in time.”
“Yes, a help in time of need; for no one can hope to lead the pack forever.” said Bagheera.
Akela said nothing. He was thinking of the time that comes to every leader of every pack when his strength(力量) goes from him and he gets weaker and weaker. Then he is killed by the wolves and a new leader comes up---to be killed in his turn.
“Take him away,” he said to Father Wolf, “and teach him like the other wolf cubs.”

四、七选五(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)
__1__ It's a very uncomfortable feeling. In fact, scientists have always believed that sleep is like food---if we don’t get enough of it, we might get sick or even die. But now they are starting to wonder just how much sleep we need.
__2__ They found that flies that slept for very short periods of time---about 72 minutes a day---still lived about as long as flies that slept for normal amount of time, according to Live Science. One of the female flies slept for just 4 minutes each day on average. This has led the researchers to wonder if sleep is less necessary than we thought.
___3___ According to the Sleep Foundation, when we sleep, our bodies do a lot of maintenance(维护) for example, repairing tissue(组织) and growing muscle. Sleeping allows our bodies to recover from the stress we experience each day.
___4___ No humans have died so far from staying awake for too long. The world record for
sleeplessness is held by Randy Gardner from the US, who stayed awake for11 days and 25 minutes, in 1964. However Gardner did experience serious side effects(作用), such as hallucinations(幻觉), moodiness(忧郁) and memory loss.
___5___ Even animals that only sleep for short periods are not completely sleepless. This suggests that a minimum(最小的)amount of sleep is necessary, even in short-sleeping animals, according to German scientist Niels Rattenborg.
A.If you've ever stayed up late and then got up early the next day, you know what it is like to not get
enough sleep.

I come from Cambridge, a beautiful city in the east of England. It is on the River Cam and has a population of about 120, 000. My hometown is especially famous for its university. Many famous people studied here, such as Isaac Newton and Charles Darwin. There are lots of old buildings to visit. Students and tourists enjoy trips along the river by boat.
Cambridge is over 80 kilometres from London. London is in the south of England and it is on the River Thames. It has a population of about nine million, so it is bigger and busier than Cambridge. It is about 2, 000 years old, and it is famous for Big Ben, Buckingham Palace and Tower Bridge.
England itself is part of an island, and you are always near the sea. The small villages and beaches on the coast are popular for holidays. Tourists like the areas of low mountains and beautiful lakes in the north, and the hills and pretty villages in the south. Everywhere in England, you will notice how green the countryside is.
It is never very hot in summer or very cold in winter. So come and see England any time of the year, but bring an umbrella with you. It rains a lot all year round. You will need it most days.
