through our window, do you jump out of bed or go on lying? having enough sleep can make the difference between a great day and a terrible one! here are the tips for a good nights sleep: first, go to bed and get up at the same time, even if you havent gotten a good nights sleep. sleeping late for just a few days can change your body clock to a different cycle. also, avoid big meals 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 produces 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, dont 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 nights sleep, youll be able to face a new day.1. according to the first passage, we can learn that _.a. australiansconsider mango as the national fruitb. mangoes are rich in fat to meet peoples daily needc. there are all kinds of vitamins and minerals in mangoesd. people enjoy mangoes because they are healthy and tasty【答案】d【解析】本题为信息定位题：根据“the countries of india and the philippines have named mango their national fruit” 可知a选项是错误的。“a cup of the fruit has only 100 calories and is nearly fat-free”可知b选项是错误的。根据 “mangoes have over 20 vitamins and minerals, making them a super food.”可知c是正确的。根据 “and not only do mangoes taste great but they also are good for you.”可知d选项是错误的。2. the underlined word “cultivated” in the first passage means _.a. boughtb. madec. plantedd. invented【答案】c【解析】本题说的是mango这种fruit，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。3.according to the second passage, we can make our body produce more melatonin by _.a. surfing the internet on the computer or ipadb. changing our body clocks to different cyclesc. turning off tvs at least an hour before sleepingd. enjoying some outdoor activities in the open air【答案】c【解析】根据 “it produces more in the evening and less in the daytime.” 和 “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.”两句得知答案为c。4. the second passage mainly tells us that people _.a. can do something to have a good nights sleepb. should do to bed early and get up early every dayc. should

two articles may come from _.a. a story book b. a magazinec. a guide bookd. 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。bone year, a college in the unites

millisecondsas short as the blink of an eyeis too long for most internet users.a millisecond is one thousandth of a second. people hardly notice such a small time difference, but it does cause them to stop searching, reported the new york times. “without question, nobody likes to wait,” said arvind jain, a google engineer. “every millisecond matters.”nowadays, millions of smart-phones and computers are continually gathering and sending out information. with so many people downloading maps, sports videos, news and restaurant recommendations, you can get digital “traffic jams”. meanwhile, users are expecting faster and faster service. google found that if one website is 250 milliseconds slower than another website, then people will visit it less often. this is why technology companies are now competing to be the fastest. google said people do expect different things from different websites because they realize not all loading times are the same. for example, a person will be more patient waiting for a video to load than for a search result. even so, four out of five online users will click away if a video takes too long to load. this makes it difficult for video websites to choose between the quality of pictures and fast loading times. trying to get a higher speed has always been part of the history of the internet. in the 1990s, when the world wide web first started to become popular, it was very crowded and slow; people called it the “world wide wait”. but engineers managed to fight the problem with new inventions. they laid a lot of fiber optic cables (光缆)for sending in high speed; they improved software so it would work more smoothly; they placed computer servers all around the world to be nearer to users; all this increased speed.nowadays we can enjoy much faster internet. famous search engines such as google and microsofts bing usually find search results in less than a second. however, in order to meet the requirement of internet users, these tycoons should never stop their steps.1. the report from the new york times suggests that a. a millisecond is one thousandth of a second.b. 400 milliseconds is not so long for most internet users.c. a millisecond has nothing to do with the internet speed.d. a millisecond really makes a difference to the internet users.【答案】d【解析】根据题干中的“the new york times”定位到第二段“people hardly notice such a small time difference, but it does cause them to stop searching, reported the new york times.”即可得出答案2. the engineers did something to improve the speed, including _.a. making software work more smoothly b. laying a number of fiber optic cables inside c. placing computer servers throughout the world d. developing the quality of pictures on the interneta. a b c b. b c d c. a c d d. a b d 【答案】a【解析】根据题干中的“engineers”定位到第六段“but engineers managed to fight the problem with new inventions. they laid a lot of fiber optic cables (光缆)for sending in high speed; they improved software so it would work more smoothly; they placed computer servers all around the world to be nearer to users; all this increased speed.”即可得出答案3. which of the following is true according to the passage?a. the quality of pictures comes first for video websites.b. google is 250 milliseconds slower than other websites c. microsofts bing is the fastest engine the world nowd. people are more likely to wait for loading films than maps【答案】d【解析】a选项根据“picture和video websites”定位到第五段“this makes it difficult for video websites to choose between the quality of pictures and fast loading times.”可得知video websites 很难做出选择 从而得出错误。b选项根据“250 milliseconds”定位到第四段“google found that if one website is 250 milliseconds slower than another website, then people will visit it less often”可得知是google进行假设从而得出错误。c选项根据 第四段“this is why technology companies are now competing to be the fastest.”和最后一段“famous search engines such as google and microsofts bing usually find search results in less than a second.”得知文章没有给出哪个网站是网速最快的，从而得出错误。d选项根据第四段“for example, a person will be more patient waiting for a video to load than for a search result”同时根据选项“be likely to do”表示“有可能做某事”。 其中 “film”代指“video”；“maps”代指“search result”可得出正确。4. what does the underlined sentence mean?a. internet users are willing to see more search engines set up b. google and microsofts bing should help find the searching results c. these companies should mind their steps, or they will break down soon. d. these companies need to catch up with the developing needs of internet users【答案】d【解析】划线句子中 “meet the requirement” 表示满足需求；tycoons “巨头”代指famous search engines such as google and microsofts bing5. what can be the best title of this passage?a. dont make me “www.wait”.b. search engines work fast
