14、What's your pain telling you?
Is that pain you feel in your back, neck or shoulders just a short ache from your new exercise menu? Or is there something deeper and more serious at work? Either way, you decide not to pay attention to it.
"Pain is a warning system; it tells us that something is wrong," says Bradford Butler, a doctor. "Continual pain goes further. It is telling you that a whole system in your body isn't working right. "
For many people and their doctors, the first reaction for pain, and sometimes the second and third reactions as well, is to take some painkillers and go on your way.
"That doesn't solve the problem, " Butler says. "Too often, with back pain, shoulder pain, neck pain or other continual pain, many doctors focus on reducing(减少) the pain rather than finding out the cause. "
Imagine this，you wake up midnight with an unbearable toothache，and then visit a doctor who discovers a huge cavity(空洞)but, instead of repairing the cavity, just gives you some powerful medicine for the pain and sends you home.“Left untreated，the pain would get worse and the damage to the tooth would worsen，leading to bigger and more expensive medical process later on，”Butler says.
Butler offers some advice for those whose bodies are trying to warn them that something is wrong
Choose your doctor wisely. Blind faith (信任) in any doctor is not the answer. Butler says, " Doctors have their own specialty and make sure you find someone who will really help you with your problem. "
Don't let your body resetting its pain level fool you. What happens when you let the pain go? Your body adapts (适应) . Butler says, "When your body gets used to the pain, you think the problem must be gone. While in reality, your body's pain setting has been raised. The only time you're feeling pain is when you're already in terrible poor condition. "
Think of prevention. Dental (牙科的) patients are encouraged to have regular check-ups, whether they're in pain or not, so the doctor can work on potential (潜在的)problems. "That's the way for other pain," Butler says. "Being free of symptoms( 症状)doesn't mean you don't have big problems. It just means that you don't know they're developing. "
" We need to listen to our pain and fix whatever is wrong as soon as possible, " Butler says. " You won't get better until you find the cause of the problem. "
1．Bradford Butler probably believes that .
A．reducing the pain is the most important
B．finding out the cause of pain is too easy
C．taking some painkillers can solve the problems
D．continual pain warns you that something is seriously wrong
2．In Paragraph 5 , the writer wants to tell us .
A．medical process is not cheap B．getting fully treated is necessary
C．repairing the cavity is very difficult D．powerful medicine is the best solution
3．What can we know from the passage?
A．Staying in terrible condition makes us fool.
B．Having regular check-ups is only for dental patients.
C．Finding the cause of the pain will make us healthier.
D．Choosing a wise doctor is important from beginning to end.

15、News 1
Liu Xiang won China’s first gold medal in the world championships (锦标赛) in 12.95 seconds.
“Everybody wants to win a world title. I was nervous before the race. But I dealt with it so I'm very happy,” Liu said with a smile after the race.
Some reporters noticed that at the start, Liu Xiang was crying. He said that is his way of letting off pressure. “My start wa sn’t good, maybe because I was nervous or because I was a bit slow,” he said.

16、A public primary school in the USA has stopped giving its students’ homework.
Principal Jane Hsu wrote a letter to parents last month, explaining that after more than a year
of analyzing (分析) studies, the school had decided that st udents’ after-school time would be better spent on activities like reading at their own pace (步伐) and playing instead of working on homework.
Hsu’s letter says that many studies show that there is no connection between homework and academic (学业的) success. Some other studies also show that the connection between homework and success is dubious at the primary school level. Harris Cooper, a social psychologist who researches education, found that doing homework makes students perform better in school as they grew older. In later grades, students who did homework performed increasingly better than students who did not. In 2006, Cooper published a study that analyzed 15 years’ worth of data on the influence of homework. He found that homework had a good influence on students as they aged.
Some parents are not happy with the decision to give up homework. “I think they should have homework. I want my daughter to have fun, but I also want her to be working towards a goal,” Daniel Tasman, the father of a second-grader at the school, said to the reporter.
“Students have to do homework in order to gain. Students have to do homework because they may not be able to understand everything in school,” Sharon Blake, a student’s grandmother told ABC news.
1．Jane Hsu wrote a letter to parents to explain .
A．how students should read at their own pace
B．why the school gave up homework recently
C．what activities students could take at home
D．how important the homework is for students
2．The word “dubious” in Paragraph 3 probably means “not ”.
A．real B．public C．clear D．special
3．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A．Cooper found homework had a bad effect on students as they aged.
B．Some parents are worried about their children if there is no homework.
C．Some students are not happy with the decision to give up school homework.
D．Daniel Tasman wanted his daughter to have fun instead of working to a goal

19、How to Spend Our Pocket Money
As families are now living a better life,we kids can have some pocket money. I usually get my pocket money from my parents. Sometimes,I can get some by selling waste paper and bottles. I often use my pocket money to buy breakfast on my way to school. I also buy some books to help me with my lessons with my pocket money. I think I can do something more meaningful with it. For example,I can go traveling to a tourist attraction to enjoy myself in the summer holidays. I can also donate my pocket money to help poor children in western areas of China so that they can live happily.。
