14、Mei Qiyue, 13, of Chongqing, leaves her dorm(寝室) early every morning and doesn’t return until late at night. She feels stressed in the dorm. “My roommates look down on me. When I say something, they never agree with me. Sometimes, they even laugh at me together,” said Mei. “The dorm is like hell. I want to leave the moment I walk in.”Mei is not alone. Many middle school students lave such problems. Plans, opinions and other small differences can create conflict(冲突). “Most teenagers are the only child in the family where they are the ‘King’ or ‘Queen’. They can’t stand other kids’ different ideas, so conflicts between them come out in the dorm,” said Sun Yunxiao, a professor in Beijing.
According to Sun, roommate relations are important in schools, and students should be serious about them. He suggests that students should be patient, sincere(真诚) and cooperative in dealing with their roommates.
Zou Ming, 14, of Shanxi, and his roommates didn’t clean their dorm for a long time during their first semester. “Later, we began to hate each other because nobody would clean,” said Zou. “One day, we had a dorm meeting. At the meeting we discussed the problem seriously and decided each other of us would clea n for a week.” After the meeting, they cleaned the dorm for the first time together, and the boys have become good friends.

15、In ancient Egypt, a shopkeeper discovered that he could attract customers to his shop simply by making changes to its environment. Modern businesses have been following his lead, with more tactics(策略).
One tactic involves where to display the goods. For example, stores place fruits and vegetables in the first section. They know that customers who buy the healthy food first will feel happy so that they will buy more junk food later in their trip. In department stores, the women’s shoe section is generally next to the women’s cosmetics(化妆品) section: while the shop assistant is going back to find the right size shoe, bored customers are likely to wander over and find some cosmetics they might want to try later.
Besides, businesses seek to appeal to customers’ senses. Stores notice that the smell of baked goods encourages shopping, so they make their own bread each morning and then fan the bread smell into the store throughout the day. Music sells goods, too. Researchers in Britain found that when French music was played, sales of French wines went up.
When it comes to the selling of houses, businesses also used highly rewarding tactics. They find that customers make decisions in the first few seconds upon walking in the door, and turn it into a business opportunity. A California builder designed the structure of its houses smartly. When entering the house, the customer would see the Pacific Ocean through the windows, and then the pool through an open stairway leading to the lower level. The instant view of water on both levels helped sell these $10 million houses.
1．Why do stores usually display fruits and vegetables in the first section?
A．To save customers time. B．To show they are high quality foods.
C．To help sell junk food. D．To sell them at discount prices.
2．According to Paragraph 3, which of the following encourages customers to buy?
A．Opening the store early in the morning. B．Displaying British wines next to French ones.
C．Inviting customers to play music. D．Filling the store with the smell of fresh bread.
3．What is the California builder’s story intended to prove?
A．The house structure is a key factor customers consider.
B．The more costly the house is, the better it sells.
C．An ocean view is much to the customers’ taste.
D．A good first impression increases sales.
4．What is the main purpose of the passage?
A．To explain how businesses turn people into their customers.
B．To introduce how businesses have grown from the past.
C．To report researches on customer behavior.
D．To show dishonest business practices.

16、How fit are your teeth? Are you lazy about brushing them? We brush our teeth every day but few people know how well we're brushing. Today, a French company has introduced an electric toothbrush, which can work wirelessly（无线地）with a smartphone. It's called the Kolibree toothbrush. It has different models, and will cost from$99 to$200 .The US is the first target market.
Users download an app and connect via Bluetooth, and the Kolibree will record: 1 .the time you spent brushing teeth. 2.whether all areas of your mouth are reached.
3 .whether you brush up and down instead of just side to side. Then it will send the information to a mobile phone via Bluetooth, telling you whether you have brushed in a proper way. The Kolibree records your progress and scores your brushing way to help you improve brushing habits. It's kind of like having a private dentist actually watch your brushing on a day-to-day basis.
The toothbrush can also talk to other apps on your phone, so developers could create a game controlled by your toothbrush. When you brush your teeth, you can score your points for beating the monsters in your teeth. That's really very interesting. The Kolibree toothbrush is created to be smart but also fun.
The Kolibree toothbrush was invented by Thomas Serval. He says the idea of inventing it came from his experience as a father. He would come home from work and ask his kids if they had brushed their teeth. They always answered
"yes", but Thomas used to find their toothbrush heads dry. He decided that a kind of brush was needed to tell him how well they brushed their teeth.
Thomas says that one day, it'll be possible to use a brushing unit with a camera. The camera can even examine holes in your teeth while you brush.

A．a French company
B．Thomas Serval
C．Thomas Serval's father
2．How much is the Kolibree toothbrush?
A．From$99 to$200.
B．From$90 to$200.

3．What can the Kolibree toothbrush do?
A．It can record how often you brush your teeth.
B．It can tell you what time you should brush your teeth.
C．It can score your brushing way.
4．What's the reason for inventing the Kolibree toothbrush?
A．Its inventor was interested in toothbrushes.
B．The toothbrush heads were too dry.
C．Its inventor wanted to know whether the kids brushed their teeth.
5．What will the Kolibree toothbrush probably be like in the future?

Time went by…the little boy had grown up and he no longer played around the tree every day. One day, the boy came back to the tree and he looked sad. “Come and play with me,” the tree asked the boy. “I’m no longer a kid.

One hot summer day, the boy returned and the tree was pleased. “Come and play with me!” the tree said. “I am sad and getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself.

19、After-class Activities
Nowadays, after-class activities are becoming more and more popular in junior schools. In our school there are various kinds of activities, for example, arts and sports. We enjoy them very much. Playing football and reading are my favorites which do me lots of good. Besides building my body and improving my skills, they also free me from the heavy work of study.
Here I have some suggestions. To students, we’d better choose the activities which interest us and suit us; Schools should organize more activities for students and leave more time for activities by giving us less homework.
Dear friends, please actively take part in after-activities, which will not only make your school life colorful, but also improve your learning.。
