A
There was a very mean man named Mr. Black who lived on the sixth floor of an apartment building. He was so impolite to his neighbors that no one even knew his first name was Adam. He never said hello to anyone, and he left his rubbish out in the hallway. He always complained(抱怨) about all his neighbors and the noise they made. He even got upset when the couple who lived next door to him, Catherine and David, had a baby. Instead of saying congratulations, he loudly complained about how the baby would surely cry all night.
One day when he was leaving his apartment, Mr. Black saw that his rubbish was gone. In its place, he found a note from David. “Good morning, Mr. B lack. I saw your rubbish here, and since I was on my way out, I picked it up for you. I wanted to save you a trip. Have a nice day, David.” However, Mr. Black decided to ignore this act of kindness.

How did you sleep last night Did you choose your favorite position (姿势) at bedtime like most people However, once sleep set in, you probably changed to different positions.
If you wonder whether there is the best way to sleep, you’re not alone. There’s a lot of information online about how to sleep. Many products have also been created to help people sleep in a healthier position.
But in fact, we have much less control over how we sleep than we might think. According to some scientists, we’d better not even try to do that. “Sometimes there’s more harm than good in trying to control your sleep position,” says Raman Malhotra, a medical expert.
Joseph De Koninck, a psychologist(心理学家) in Canada, has wondered how people really sleep at night. He created a way to photograph sleep positions without waking up a person. As it turned out, the position people take at the beginning of sleep is not necessarily the one they use through the night. After many studies, Joseph found one thing-once you go to sleep, your body is in charge of its position.
Malhotra agrees. “There’re certainly positions that are more comfortable for certain people,” he says. “But it can be hard to train people to avoid certain positions during their sleep.”
Instead of worrying about something that’s hard to control, why not ask yourself how you feel when you wake up If you’re well-rested and don’t have sleep problems, there’s no need to worry about your sleep positions. So, next time you go to sleep, close your eyes, relax, and let nature take its course.
43. How does the writer begin the passage
A. By comparing facts. B. By raising questions.
C. By giving examples. D. By making a survey.
44. What is mainly explained in the third paragraph
A. Ways to have a good night’s sleep.
B. Facts that people know about sleep positions.
C. Relationship between sleep positions and health.
D. Reasons for not trying to control the sleep position.
45. The underlined expression “is in charge of” has the closest meaning to“________”.
A. controls B. supports
C. improves D. memorizes
46. Which of the following is Malhotra’s opinion
A. It’s difficult to control our positions at night.
B. It’s unnecessary to change positions during sleep.
C. The best sleep position depends on people’s self-control.
D. Most people choose the healthiest position at bedtime.
D
Every year, lots of animals around the world go on migrating (迁徙) journeys. Some need to find food; others are looking for somewhere to produce and raise their young. Migrations can be long and difficult for animals, but new research on birds has found that farmland along the way can help their progress.
In spring, hundreds of thousands of birds living near Lake Poyang, in China, fly north to Siberia, Russia. On the way, they find places to stop and eat to keep their energy levels up for the long journey. Some birds, such as geese, eat young grass that starts to grow at the beginning of the season. This food can last for only a few weeks. And rising temperatures caused by climate change can sometimes make the grass grow earlier than usual. This means that some birds are arriving too late to eat the grass. As more land is used for farming, the natural wetlands where birds like to search for food are disappearing, too.
A team of researchers have recently chosen to follow 246 birds, including geese and tundra swans, that are flying from Lake Poyang to Siberia. They find that the birds have changed their diets to adapt (适应) to the environments they pass through. As well as eating grass from the wetlands along the way, the birds are also eating seeds(种子) dropped by farmers.
The researchers believe that seeds will become a more important part of migrating birds’ diets as more natural wetlands disappear. They suggest that if farmers use different ways of harvesting, such as using machines that leave behind more seeds in fields, it could help to feed migrating birds. However, they also say wetlands must be protected, so the birds can enjoy different foods during their long journeys.
47. Which can be a reason for animal migration according to Paragraph 1
A. Raising their babies. B. Enjoying the journey.
C. Sending food to others. D. Taking care of the old.
48. What problem might the birds meet when flying from Lake Poyang to Siberia
A. There is no grass growing along the way.
B. There is a sudden drop in temperature on the way.
C. Fewer natural wetlands are left for them to find food.
D. Some of the birds set out early and eat too much grass.
49. How do the birds adapt to the environments they pass through
A. By changing their diets. B. By changing the way they fly.
C. By making their homes in wetlands. D. By making friends with farmers.
50. What can be the best title of the text
A. Stop killing, stop polluting B. Save water, save life
C. Birds help harvesting work D. Farms help migrating birds
第二节 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
You’ve probably heard of books that will change your life. And a lot of readers agree that the book Atomic Habits(《原子习惯》) will meet your needs.
James Clear, who did a lot of research on formation of habits, is the writer of Atomic Habits. 51 It has sold over 15 million copies and has been translated into more than 50 languages. And his website receives millions of visitors each month.
52 That’s because the book introduces a practical system for creating good habits and breaking bad ones. Readers everywhere are very interested in Clear’s “science of tiny habits”.
In the book, file writer suggests trying to get 1%better each day. For example, you’d like to exercise but you don’t think you have the time or energy. Clear suggests starting with two minutes a day. Over time, the effects of this habit will increase as you repeat the actions. 53 “All big things come from small beginnings,” says Clear.
Clear continues with the following advice: Don’t focus on (聚焦) what you want to achieve. 54 For example, two men want to break the habit of smoking. When offered a cigarette(香烟), one says, “No, thanks. I’m trying to give up smoking.” The other says, “No, thanks. I’m not a smoker.” While the first man still sees himself as a smoker, the second man doesn’t. Clear says, “Bad habits will die more easily if you focus on who you want to become.”
Atomic Habits will reshape the way you think about progress and success. 55 Slowly but surely, it will have a great effect on your health, job and relationships.
A. Why is it so popular B. Instead, focus on who you want to become. C. He calls these repeated actions “atomic habits”. D. This book is a No.1 New York Times bestseller. E. Also, it will give you the tools you need to change your habits

Dear Sir / Madam,
I’m Li Ping from Class One, Grade Nine. I’m writing to recommend my class as the Civilized Class. Firstly, I’d like to introduce good manners that our classmates have. Whether in class or after class, we always show our respect to our teachers. What’s more, we follow class rules strictly, which makes it easier for our teachers to manage the class. Secondly, our class environment is very comfortable. Just as the saying goes, “Good environment brings a good mind.” For this reason, we always try to keep our classroom clean and tidy. Besides, there is a reading corner in our classroom where we can do some reading during breaks. The last thing I want to mention is the good learning atmosphere of our class. We listen to the teacher carefully on class and finish our homework on time. If someone has trouble with learning, we always help each other.
In a word, we sincerely wish to be chosen as the Civilized Class. Thank you for spending time reading this letter.
Yours,
Li Ping
