When I was a little girl, I remember that when my dad was repairing something, he would ask me to hold the hammer, so we would have time for a conversation with each other. I never saw my dad drinking or taking a night out. All he did after work was taking care of his family.
I grew up and left home for college and since then, my dad had been calling me every Sunday morning. And when I bought a house several years later, my dad painted it by himself in the fierce summer heat. All he asked was to talk to him, but I was to busy in those days.
Four years ago, my dad visited me. He spent many hours putting together a swing for my daughter. He asked me to have a talk with him, but I had to prepare for a trip that weekend.
One Sunday morning we had a telephone talk as usual. I noticed that my dad had forgotten some things that we discussed lately. I was in a hurry, so our conversation was short. Several hours later that day I received a call. My father was in the hospital. Immediately I bought a plane ticket and on my way I was thinking about all the occasions I missed to have a talk with my dad. By the time I arrived at the hospital, my father had passed away. Now it was he who did not have time for a conversation with me. I realized how little I knew about my dad, his deepest thoughts and his dreams.
After his death I learned much more about him and even more about myself. All he ever wanted was my time. And now he has all my attention every single day.

Since smart phones were invented, more and more people have been obsessed (痴迷) with them. The obsession with phones has spread to running. They’re perfectly used during a run outside. Smart phones can provide music for you and track your route. But experts warn that it’s not a good idea to hold your phone in your hand while you go out for a run because it could cause hip (臀部) and shoulder injuries.
The habit could make the body lose balance. The same goes for water bottles or anything else you might carry in one hand while on a run.
Professional UK Athletics running coach, Alexa, asks runners to carry phones in a fanny pack (腰包) instead. “When you hold something in your hands, there are slightly indirect influences on your pace. It influences the balance of muscles (肌肉), affects the weight of some body parts, and makes you run less fast,” she tells Cosmopolitan UK. “This could be happening every time you train, week after week, month after month.”
And as mobile phones get bigger and heavier, the more injuries are likely to happen.People like to always hold their phones in the same hand. It’s a force of habit. With one arm heavier, your body will try to compensate for the imbalance, by working certain muscles harder than others.
The other risk of running with phones in hand, of course, is damaging the screen of your phones if you fall. It’s very expensive to change a screen. Some of the latest phones can close to $300.
8 Why do experts think it is unsuitable to run with a smart phone
A. It affects people’s hearing.
B. It makes people lose eyesight.
C. It does harm to parts of people’s bodies.
D. It causes people to fall down and get lost.
9. What does Alexa advise people to do
A. Carry smartphones in a bag.
B. Avoid touching smart phones with your hands.
C. Watch smartphones when running.
D. Carry smartphones in a fanny pack.
10. What does the underlined phrase “compensate for” in Paragraph 4 mean
A. Deal with.
B. Make up for.
C. Be faced with.
D. Figure out.
11. What’s the main idea of this passage
A. Running with phones in hand is harmful for people.
B. It’s time to warn people not to use mobile phones.
C. Changing a phone screen may cost much.
D. There are mobile phones falling into pieces every day.
D
How was your sleep last night Sleep is important for health. How can we have healthy sleep Take a look at some advice.
Wake up naturally. Waking up to a ringing alarm is never fun. Studies show that when you get shocked by the alarm, your breathing will go up, your heart will have more beats and your blood pressure will rise.
“This is a very unhappy way to start the day,” sleep scientist Whitney Roban said. “You’ll feel worse if you go back to sleep a few more minutes. It’s important to follow your body’s natural sleep-wake cycle (循环).”
So what should we do Try to use. an alarm with softer and lower sounds. Or leave a crack (缝隙) in the curtains (窗帘) — the rising sun will wake you up.
Sleep early and get up early Some young people may go to bed late and get up late such as sleeping from 2 am to 10 am. They think as long as they have eight hours of sleep, everything will be fine.
But in fact, our bodies can tell time. They use light and temperature to do so. If we wake up too late, our bodies might feel stuck between sleep and being awake. That’s why sometimes we feel even more tired after oversleeping.
12. According to studies, what will happen to your body if an alarm wakes you up suddenly
A. Your heart will beat faster. B. You may breathe more slowly.
C. Your body temperature will go up. D. You will have lower blood pressure
13. Which of the following does Whitney Roban agree with
A. Trying to use an alarm with louder sounds. B. Going back to sleep again after waking up.
C. Reading magazines online before going to bed. D. Following the body’s natural sleep-wake cycle.
14. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A. It is necessary for people to oversleep. B. Heavy work can lead to oversleeping.
C. It is hard to change people’s sleeping habits. D. Oversleeping sometimes makes us more tired.
15. What is the passage mainly about
A. Why people need to sleep. B. Why people have sleeping problems.
C. How to have healthy sleep. D. How to wake up in a natural way.

Jack was awakened by a gunshot. He looked out toward the frozen lake. Near the trees he saw a shining piece of metal. When it moved, Jack saw that it was a long gun. A minute later, a man wearing hunting clothes came out of the woods.
Suddenly a bird flew upward. The man quickly raised the gun and shot at it. Jack watched the bird, praying it had not been hurt. It flew near the ground and went into some tall bushes. The hunter didn’t move for a moment. Then he began to look for the bird.
“No hunting!” Jack came out in his nightclothes and shouted. “No hunting on my land!” The man called back, “Where can I hunt ” Jack said, “Go South!” And then he pointed in the direction behind the man. The hunter started to walk away.
After a while, Jack had just finished putting on his clothes when he heard another gunshot. He walked toward the lake. Fighting was the last thing he wanted, but the man must go. Suddenly he heard a bird s wings beating the dry grass. Jack moved quickly towards the sound. He saw a colored head... the head of a beautiful bird. The bird flapped its wings, one of which was broken completely.
Jack decided to take the bird home and treat its broken wing so that it could fly again. He was almost going through the woods when he heard the hunter behind him. “You have just found that bird ” the hunter asked, stepping closer, and said, “Give me that bird!”
“Leave here and don’t follow me,” Jack told him. The man’s face got red. “Mister,” he said, “I have been hunting here all my life. I grew up here.” Jack looked into the hunter’s gray eyes and raised his voice, “I do not know who you are and I do not care. I own this place and I am telling you to leave!” “Now look, Mister,” the hunter insisted, “be reasonable.” He raised his gun. A cold wind blew across Jack’s face. He felt a chill (冷风) going down his spine (脊柱).

Since smart phones were invented, more and more people have been obsessed (痴迷) with them. The obsession with phones has spread to running. They’re perfectly used during a run outside. Smart phones can provide music for you and track your route. But experts warn that it’s not a good idea to hold your phone in your hand while you go out for a run because it could cause hip (臀部) and shoulder injuries.
The habit could make the body lose balance. The same goes for water bottles, or anything else you might carry in one hand while on a run.
Professional UK Athletics running coach, Alexa, asks runners to carry phones in a fanny pack (腰包) instead. “When you hold something in your hands, there are slightly indirect influences on your pace. It influences the balance of muscles (肌肉), affects the weight of some body parts, and makes you run less fast,” she tells Cosmopolitan UK. “This could be happening every time you train, week after week, month after month.”
And as mobile phones get bigger and heavier, the more injuries are likely to happen.People like to always hold their phones in the same hand. It’s a force of habit. With one arm heavier, your body will try to compensate for the imbalance, by working certain muscles harder than others.
The other risk of running with phones in hand, of course, is damaging the screen of your phones if you fall. It’s very expensive to change a screen. Some of the latest phones can close to $300.
8. Why do experts think it is unsuitable to run with a smart phone
A. It affects people’s hearing.
B. It makes people lose eyesight.
C. It does harm to parts of people’s bodies.
D. It causes people to fall down and get lost.
9. What does Alexa advise people to do
A. Carry smartphones in a bag.
B. Avoid touching smart phones with your hands.
C. Watch smartphones when running.
D. Carry smartphones in a fanny pack.
10. What does the underlined phrase “compensate for” in Paragraph 4 mean
A. Deal with.
B. Make up for.
C. Be faced with.
D. Figure out.
11. What’s the main idea of this passage
A. Running with phones in hand is harmful for people.
B. It’s time to warn people not to use mobile phones.
C. Changing a phone screen may cost much.
D. There are mobile phones falling into pieces every day.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Jack was awakened by a gunshot. He looked out toward the frozen lake. Near the trees he saw a shining piece of metal. When it moved, Jack saw that it was a long gun. A minute later, a man wearing hunting clothes came out of the woods.
Suddenly a bird flew upward. The man quickly raised the gun and shot at it. Jack watched the bird, praying it had not been hurt. It flew near the ground and went into some tall bushes. The hunter didn’t move for a moment. Then he began to look for the bird.
“No hunting!” Jack came out in his nightclothes and shouted. “No hunting on my land!” The man called back, “Where can I hunt ” Jack said, “Go South!” And then he pointed in the direction behind the man. The hunter started to walk away.
After a while, Jack had just finished putting on his clothes when he heard another gunshot. He walked toward the lake. Fighting was the last thing he wanted, but the man must go. Suddenly he heard a bird s wings beating the dry grass. Jack moved quickly towards the sound. He saw a colored head... the head of a beautiful bird. The bird flapped its wings, one of which was broken completely.
Jack decided to take the bird home and treat its broken wing so that it could fly again. He was almost going through the woods when he heard the hunter behind him. “You have just found that bird ” the hunter asked, stepping closer, and said, “Give me that bird!”
“Leave here and don’t follow me,” Jack told him. The man’s face got red. “Mister,” he said, “I have been hunting here all my life. I grew up here.” Jack looked into the hunter’s gray eyes and raised his voice, “I do not know who you are and I do not care. I own this place and I am telling you to leave!” “Now look, Mister,” the hunter insisted, “be reasonable.” He raised his gun. A cold wind blew across Jack’s face. He felt a chill (冷风) going down his spine (脊柱).
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。

The hunter looked back from time to time and Jack signaled to him to leave quickly.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Jack stood there and became calm with the bird in his arms. The bird struggled weakly and made a wild, strange sound. The sound made Jack’s heart ache. It seemed as if he could sense the bird’s fear and helplessness. Holding it tightly in his arms, Jack knew that he just couldn’t give up this tiny life. He raised his eyes and looked directly into the hunter’s. The steady gaze sent a strong message to the hunter that by no means would he give in. And then to Jack’s great relief, the hunter began to walk away slowly.
The hunter looked back from time to time and Jack signaled to him to leave quickly. Jack watched until the hunter was gone and then he went to the house. He carefully laid the bird on the soft pillow, applied some medicine to the wound and bandaged its broken wing. With his careful nursing, the bird gradually recovered. One day Jack returned to find it eagerly flapping its wings, and he knew it was time to set it free.
