三、阅读理解（每小题2分，共30分）
A
A study finds that not enough morning light causes teenagers not to get enough sleep at night. “As teenagers spend more time indoors, they miss necessary morning light. Day light is needed to keep the balance of the body’s 24-hour biological system (生物系统), which regulates (调节) body temperature and sleep styles,” reports Dr. Mariana Figueiro. “These teenagers who receive little morning light are going to bed later, getting less sleep and doing badly in tests. They are more likely to fail in their exams.
In the study, Dr. Figueiro asked 11 students in Grade 8 to wear special glasses to prevent blue morning light from reaching their eyes. At the end of the 5-day study she found that they fell asleep 30 minutes later than usual.
During her research, Dr. Figueiro has been very worried about teenagers going to bed too late. The problem is that today抯 schools require teenagers to be in school very early in the morning. These students are likely to miss the morning light because they often go to school before the sun is up or as it’s just rising.
Furthermore (此外), the schools are not likely to provide enough electric light to keep the balance of this biological system. Our biological system is much more sensitive to blue light. Therefore, having lots of light in the classroom does not make sure that there is enough light to keep our biological system balanced.
26. Which of the following is the result of the study?
A. Blue light in the morning harms the biological system.
B. Not enough morning light keeps teenagers sleep less.
C. Not getting more light in the morning make teenagers happy.
D. Not enough sleep makes teenagers fail in tests.
27. We know from the passage that morning light __________.
A. has the same effects as afternoon light B. may change studying habits of teenagers
C. is important to children抯 biological system D. has no effect on students tests
28. Paragraph 3 tells us the problem of the students is __________.
A. there are not enough electric lights in the classroom.
B. being in school early affects their study habits.
C. they have to go to bed very early to have enough sleep.
D. they go to school too early to get enough morning light.
29．The underlined word “sensitive” in the last paragraph means _______ in Chinese.
A. 敏感的 B. 体贴的 C. 神经过敏的 D.容易生气的
B
You may know the word “astronaut”. But do you know the word “taikonaut”? It means “Chinese astronaut” in English. It comes from the Chinese pinyin “taikong” and the English word “astronaut”.

Since then, because of the fast development of China’s space industry（工业）, more and more people all over the world have known the word. In September, 2008, taikonauts caught many people’s eyes again.

揇epend on yourself is what nature says to every man. Parents can help you. Teachers can help you. Others still can help you. But all these only help you to help yourself.
There have been many great men in history. But many of them were very poor in childhood, and had no uncles, aunts or friends to help them. They couldn't depend on them for education. They saw how it was, and began to work with their efforts. To know something, they worked their own way up to fame(荣誉).
One of the most famous teachers in England used to tell his pupils, "I can't make worthy men of you, but I can help you make men of yourselves."
Some young men think they are the best in anything, but in fact they are to be pitied(值得同情的). They can never do things successfully if they don't see their weak points and change their courses(做法). They are nothing now, and will be nothing as long as they live if they don't follow the advice of their parents and teachers, and depend on their own efforts.

A. they worked hard B. they wanted very much to become famous

四、词汇应用：用括号中所给词的适当形式填空。（每小题1分，共12分）
1 (Year) ago, if a teenager had some problems in their life, they might 2 (write) them in the diary. Now a teenage might go online and write their daily life and 3 (feel)in a blog (博客). In many ways, a diary and a blog are almost the same. They both tell what 4 (happen)to the writer that day. So, what makes a blog 5 (difference) from a diary?
The biggest difference is that a blog is much 6 （popular）than a diary. People like 7 （write）in blogs because they know their friends will read what they write. If 8 （I）sister writes in her blog “Nobody 9 (care)about me”, her best friends will 10 (quick) read and tell her how 11 (many)they like her. Blogs help people stay in touch with their friends and 12 (hear) what people around them are doing.
If people are caring about what they write, blogs are a very good way to write about everyday life. However, I still prefer my old diary.

七、Beijing is the capital of China with a long history. There are lots of places of interest, such as the Great Wall, the Palace Museum, the Summer Palace and so on. Since it is in the north of China, it is very dry here and it snows sometimes. Autumn is the best season in Beijing because it is neither too cold nor too hot. One of the most famous traditional foods is Beijing duck. We held the 2008 Olympic Games successfully. Because of the Olympics, we have had the chance to let the world know more about China and Beijing. So if you have time , please come to Beijing and you’ll enjoy it.
