1.FoodIt’s Mango Time!How much do you know about one of the world's most popular fruitSome people call mang ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )oes the “king of fruit,” while others just call them delicious! Those who love mangoes anxiously await the first fully grown ones of the season. And not only do mangoes taste great but they also are good for you.Did you know… —People think ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) mangoes were first cultivated over 5,000 years ago in India.—The countries of I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ndia and the Philippines have named mango their national fruit.—A mango tree can live up to 300 years.—Countries that a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )re major mango producers include Mexico, Egypt, Pakistan, Brazil, Indonesia, Australia and Israel.—A cup of the fruit has only 100 calories and is nearly fat-free.—Mangoes are an important food source for millions of people.—One cup of mango has 100 percent of the daily need for vitamin C.—Mangoes have ove ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r 20 vitamins and minerals, making them a “super food”. So treat yourself to a mango today. 2.HealthA good night’s sleepDo you get the sleep you need When the morning sun l ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ooks in through our window, do you jump out of bed or go on lying Having en ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ough sleep can make the difference between a great day and a terrible one! Here are the tips for a good night’s sleep: First, go ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )to bed and get up at the same time, even if you haven’t gotten a good night’s sleep. Sleeping late for just a few days can change your body clock to a different cycle. Also, avoid big m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eals at night. Eating heavy, rich food within two hours of bedtime can keep you awake. Your stomach works hard because of those fatty foods, and that may keep you up. Your body produce ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s a chemical called melatonin that helps you sleep. Light changes the amount of melatonin. It produces more in the evening and less in the daytime. So at night turn off your TV and PC. Also, don’t read from a backlit device(有背光的设备) like an iPad. Some scientists think that light from those devices stops your body from making melatonin. So turn those screens off at least an hour before bedtime. After a good night’s sleep, you’ll be able to face a new day.

A. bought B. made C. planted D. invented
【答案】C
【解析】本题说的是mango这种fr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )uit，水果不可能made或者invented，有根据句意，本篇文章说的是芒果的起源种植地，是哪个国家的“果树”以及芒果富含的营养等等关于芒果的介绍，“买”在这里显然不符合句意。

5. These two articles may come from ________.
A. a story book B. a magazine C. a guide book D. a news report
【答案】B
【解析】这两篇都带有一定的科普性质，介绍芒果以及如何拥有好睡眠。所以故事书和指导书，新闻报导这些都不是很符合句意，很有可能是杂志上的文章。

February 14th, Vale ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ntine’s Day, is a complicated but interesting occasion. First of all, Valentine’s Day is not a holiday from work. No one gets a day off. In many countries it is observed by sending cards to your friends and candy or flowers to your husband or wife if you’re married, or to your boy friend or girl friend if you’re not married. In Japan, some girls even give their fathers chocolates.
Why is this holiday for people in love called Valentine’s Day
One explanation ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )comes from a Christian man whose name was something like“Valentine”. He lived at a time when the Roman Emperor refused to allow any Roman soldiers to get married for any reason. Many couples came to Valentine to be married. So he would secretly marry them in a Christian ceremony. He was discovered and put in prison by the Emperor. One tradition says that he wrote notes to his friends by marking on leaves and then throwing them out of the window of his prison. The leaves were shaped like a heart. Valentine was killed on February 14th and Valentine’s Day recalls his tragic death.
On Valentine’s Da ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y, American elementary school children make or buy Valentine cards, write the name of a classmate on them, and take them to school and put them in a special Valentine’s Day box. And then on that day the box is opened, the cards are taken out and given out.
1. Which of the following is true about Valentine’s Day
A. It is observed by sending flowers to one’s husband or wife.
B. Children in Japan give their fathers chocolates.
C. It is a legal holiday in many countries.
D. People send candy to each other.
2. The man called Valentine was put in prison because ________.
A. He secretly got married in a Christian ceremony

A. Which priest is going to marry them
B. She has married off all her daughters.
C. I’m glad Hubert married a girl of spirit.
D. At present she doesn’t intend to marry at all.

Have you ever staye ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d in a hotel Most Chinese hotels often provide guests with things like disposable (一次性的) toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and slippers. Many guests like the idea because they don't have to bring their own. But, if you travel to Beijing, remember to bring your own things.

Qi Haoran is ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )a Junior One student in Harbin. He was quite busy over the past winter vacation─ not just busy with his homework. Qi, together with 10 other classmates made a volunteer group to call on people to join the Clean Your Plate Campaign.
The eleven st ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )udents went to many restaurants and told people the importance of saving food. “Excuse me, do you know that 950 million people around the world still haven’t got enough to eat Please don’t waste food.” “Nearly 100 million people only earn about 865 yuan a year in China. They even cannot afford a cup of tea.” They would say this kind of thing hundreds of times every day.

Many children act ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) in TV shows. They work several hours every day, so they can not go to regular school. How do they get an education

April will bring a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )new product–the Apple Watch–into the market. Last week, the watch was firstly introduced by Tim Cook, Apple's CEO. The price of the watch will differ from $349 to $1,099, depending on its size, strap and whether it is a sports or regular version.
Apple engineers an ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d designers have put in a lot of thought and hard work into creating this "small screen" on your wrist(手腕). The "sensor" on the screen not only detects your finger, but knows the difference between when you are tapping, and when you are pressing harder. 21世纪教育网版权所有
The watch a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lso has “haptic feedback(触觉反馈)”. You can send personal messages to your friend, such as drawing a star or a special sign with your fingers, or tapping the watch, say 3 times, and your friend will receive those taps on their wrist.
Besides telling the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )time, the watch will use 'bluetooth' to connect with your iPhone and show calls or text messages that come in.
According to Tim ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Cook, the watch may open up a whole new area of applications that we had never thought of. Some car factories like BMW have developed an app that allows its car owners to open their cars with the watch. A 'Hotels' app may allow you to open the door to your hotel room without worrying about losing the smart-card. And finally, even airlines are jumping may be able to simply wave their wrist to check into their flight.
The biggest use of th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e watch, however, is as your personal fitness coach. The watch can measure your pulse (heartbeat) using a sensor at the bottom of the watch. It also has the same "accelerometer" as your iPhone, so it knows when you are moving, and also how much you are walking or running. It will remind you if you have been sitting for too long without much activity.2-1-c-n-j-y
Many stores are pla ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nning to stop selling the Nike, Jawbone and FitBit devices(设备) to welcome the Apple Watch. Will Apple Watch really replace these devices and make fitness much more fun
42. We can learn from the passage that the Apple Watch ________.
A. is designed by ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Tim Cook B. was brought into the market last week
C. sells at d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ifferent prices for different colours D. will come into the market this coming April

Many people go to s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )chool for an education. They learn languages, history, politics, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living. School education is very important and useful. Yet, no one can learn everything from school. A teacher, no matter how much he knows, can not teach his students everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So, much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.
It is always mo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )re important to know how to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula. It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a math problem. Great scientists before us didn’t get everything from school. Their teachers only showed them the way. Edison didn’t even finish primary school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind. The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school. They would ask many questions as they read. They did thousands of experiments. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. Above all, they knew how to use their brain.

What will man b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e like in the future——in 5000 or even 50,000 years from now We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today, for man is slowly changing all the time.21世纪教育网版权所有
Let us take an examp ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )le. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, men are usually about three inches* taller. Five hundred years is quite a short period of time in the river of the long history, so we may guess that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a lot. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain’s capacity*. As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and finally we shall need larger ones! This may bring about a physical change to the head, in particular the forehead*, will grow larger.21·cn·jy·com
Nowadays our eye ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s are always in use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period of time it is probably that man’s eyes will grow stronger.
On the oth ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )er hand, we will make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are possibly to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive* because they are used a lot in modern life.
But what a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )bout hair This will probably disappear from the body as time passes by because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both men and women will probably have no hair.
Perhaps all this ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! This may be true. All the same, no matter what these changes are, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and feelings similar to our own.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】

I think it is safe t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o say that snakes are not popular among most people. It would be hard to find a person who is neutral (中立的),or simply doesn’t care one way or the other. What I wonder is why something even without legs causes such great fear.
Snakes are quite useful, but that doesn’t seem to matter. Snakes help control the population of mice. Without snakes, perhaps we would find mice everywhere. Most of us, however, would rather see a mouse than a snake.
The poison argument (毒性的争论) is a strong one. Some snakes are poisonous, and this causes people’s death. However, the poisonous snakes are only a small number. We can’t say all the snakes are bad just because of a few dangerous ones.
And what do we do with the people who really like snakes They like snakes even more strongly than we dislike them. These people learn about them, find them out, and watch them carefully. Why The only reason I can think of is that these people are open-minded. They are able to put aside differences and welcome the snake as a friend.
Whatever the reason for our like or dislike, snakes do something good in the circle of life. They would prefer to be left alone, and that is what we should do. If you’re lucky, you might not run across more than a few of them in a lifetime. That would be fine with most of us.

Many people go to sch ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ool for an education. They learn languages, history, politics, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living. School education is very important and useful. Yet, no one can learn everything from school. A teacher, no matter how much he knows, can not teach his students everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So, much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.21教育网
It is always m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ore important to know how to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula. It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a math problem. Great scientists before us didn’t get everything from school. Their teachers only showed them the way. Edison didn’t even finish primary school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind. The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school. They would ask many questions as they read. They did thousands of experiments. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. Above all, they knew how to use their brain.2-1-c-n-j-y
