阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项
A
Personal Time Off(PTO)is something my wife and I created after having kids. We learned that，over time，a full life can leave little time for personal rest and for reflection，hanging out with friends，or just being“off. ”So，after a number of years，we make a change. If I can persuade you to take your own PTO，then these might help.
■Schedule it
First of all，one of our favorite family sayings is“schedule it. ”Sounds easy enough，but life gets complicated managing full-time work and full-time family. Put yourPTO time on the calendar and you make it a real thing.
■Be flexible and strict
If you can schedule PTO at the same time each week，then all the better. Because our calendar can get rather full，flexibility in scheduling becomes a necessity. But being strict in actually taking the time each week is more important. Skipping it once makes it easier to skip again.
■Take enough time
My typical PTO lasts a couple of hours or longer. Sometimes it might be half the day depending on what I’m doing. The goal is to spend enough time away to1et your shoulders drop.
■Do what you want to do
Remember，PTO time is about personal time to do what you want to do，not what you have to do. PTO time is about relaxation. Grab a friend and get a beer. Work can wait until tomorrow.
1.What can be the first step to take the PTO?
A.Persuade the family.
B.Have a personal rest.
C.Ask friends for advice.
D.Make a time plan.
2.What does the underlined part“let your shoulders drop”probably mean?
A.Get you more focused.
B.Have you feel relaxed.
C.Shake your shoulders often.
D.Make you feel more stressed.
3.What does the text mainly talk about?
A.Tips on how to take your time off
B.Skills to manage work and family
C.Advice on how to free yourself
D.Ways of scheduling your work
B
When my friend suggested going to the op shop (二手商店)，instantly I thought “I hope no one I know sees me”. It was the same when my cousin commented on my new furniture and Japanese, fine-bone-china bowls and asked where I got them. They were from the local op shop but instead I said “from the antique shop”.
Many people in my Greek-Cypriot community would look down on me if I said I shopped at the op shop. They may pity me, consider me poor, a failure. Immigrants sacrificed their families and homes for a better life. Buying a house and having enough money to live comfortably, to educate your children and see them also live comfortably, are a big part of the immigrant dream, But has this dream made us materialistic at the cost of our own planet?
Our love for purchasing the latest trendy clothes or furniture, then donating them when we are tired of them has become normal. I was once like this. But after watching the documentaryThe True CostI learned donated clothes that don’t get sold are sent to developing nations, many of them ending up in landfills (垃圾填埋地). In addition, your new dress requires electricity and materials to make. But if you buy a second-hand dress, that’s one less dress in a landfill and one less new dress to be made.
A friend introduced me to op shopping only a few years ago. My firstitem was a dress she gifted me. It was lovely and I loved it. Nobody could tell it was second-hand. This opened me up to purchasing more second-hand high quality branded clothes. Once I visited a friend and was impressed by how she decorated her apartment. “It’s all second-hand,” she said. I couldn’t believe it. The truth is a lot of things sold at the op shop are in new or almost new condition. That’s when I made the decision to only buy second-hand things.
Selling second-hand things isn’t anything new butwhat the planet needs is more buyers. There is so much excess (过量) production in the world. So stop feeling ashamed, and let’s get shopping.
4. What kind of feeling is expressed in Paragraph 1?
A. Pride.
B. Embarrassment.
C. Delight.
D. Sympathy.
5. Whatare many people in the author’s community like?
A. They are probably materialistic.
B. They care about the environment.
C. They think highly of op shopping.
D. They look down upon immigrants.
6. What was the author encouraged to do after visiting her friend’s apartment?
A. Watch the documentaryThe True Cost.
B. Donate more to local charities.
C. Avoid shopping too much.
D. Stop buying new things.
7. What’s the purpose of the text?
A. To entertain.
B. To advertise.
C. To persuade.
D. To describe.
C
A new study finds almost one third of the world’s population is overweight. Since 1980, obesity rates(肥胖率)in children and adults have doubled in 73 countries, making people more worried. And rates are increasing in many other countries. Obesity is increasing faster in children than adults in many nations, including Algeria, Turkey and Jordan, the report said. But the world's weight problem is growing in both rich and poor countries alike. Researchers say an increasing number of people are dying of related health problems in what they called a "disturbing global public health problem."
Researchers studied health information from 1980 through 2015. They examined obesity rates, average weight gain in 195 countries. They found that obesity rates are three times greater among youth and young adults in countries like China, Brazil and India. Almost 108 million children and more than 600 million adults were found to be overweight. Egypt had the highest number of overweight adults in 2015. Vietnam had the least. In the same year, the United States had the highest number of overweight children, and Bangladesh had the least.
Yet hunger remains a problem in many areas. The United Nations said that almost 800 million people, including 300 million children, go to bed hungry each night. Experts said poor diets and lack of physical activity are mainly to blame for the rising numbers of overweight people.
Growing populations have led to rising obesity rates in poor countries. Often, poor people will eat processed(加工的) foods instead of choosing a diet rich in vegetables.
The London-based Overseas Development Institute studied the price of food in five countries: Britain, Brazil, China, Mexico and South Korea. It found that the cost of processed foods like ice creamand hamburgers has fallen since 1990. But the cost of fresh fruits and vegetables has gone up.
8. What do we know about obesity in the world?
A. It is worrying
B. It is given no attention
C. It has been successfully solved
D. It is more serious among old people
9. Which country has the most overweight children in 2015?
A. America
B. Vietnam
C. Egypt
D. Bangladesh
10. What is one of the reasons why people get overweight?
A. Hunger
B. Poor diet
C. Diets with vegetables
D. Eating too much fruit
11. Which ofthe following can be the best title for the text?
A. It’s Important to Have a Balanced Diet
B. How Can We Lose Weight and Keep Fit?
C. Is It Necessary for Us to Eat Fresh Vegetables?
D. Nearly One Third of People in the World Are Overweight.
D
We all know that a healthy lifemeans getting both plenty of exercise and enough good-quality sleep, but reality often gets in the way. The new research indicates that doing enough exercise could make up for some of the unhealthy impacts of bad sleep. While the health benefits of exercise and sleep are nothing new, it's the relationship between them that is interesting in this particular study — it could even give doctors another option to suggest for patients dealing with sleep problems.
“We found those who had both the poorest sleep quality and who exercised the least were most at risk of death from heart disease, stroke, and cancer,” says epidemiologist Bo-Huei Huang, from the University of Sydney in Australia.
Participants were grouped into three levels of physical activity (high, medium or low) and were also given a sleep quality score from 0-5 based on the amount of shut-eye they got, how late they stayed up, insomnia, snoring and daytime sleepiness.
Those with the highest risk of dying from cancer or heart disease during the study period were those with the worst quality sleep and who didn't meet the WHO recommended guidelines for exercise. That risk went down for
people with poor quality sleep but who did meet the exercise guidelines.
In the case of all forms of cancer, for example, those at the unhealthiest end of the sleep and exercise scale had a 45 percent higher risk of dying from cancer than those with good sleep scores who kept physically active. However, that risk just about disappeared for those who didn't score well on sleep but did score well on physical activity.
For now it's not clear why more exercise might make up for poor sleep, as far as our health goes. It could be that the increased activity iscounteractinginflammation (炎症), or reducing irregularities in glucose metabolism, suggest the researchers.
“Considering that physical activity is perhaps more modifiable than sleep, our study offers people more health incentives to be physically active.” says population health researcher Emmanuel Stamatakis, from the University of Sydney.
12. This research is of particular interest in that ________.
A. it’s in this study that exercise is known to be beneficial to sleep.
B. this study offers people more health treatments to be physical active.
C. it could enable doctors to cure patients of their sleeping condition.
D. the relationship between exercise and sleep is updated in this study.
13. Which of the following statements istrueaccording to the passage?
A. Those who had the poorest sleep quality were most at risk of death from heart disease.
B. Those scoring lowest on sleep and exercise scale were more likely to die from cancer.
C. There’s no risk of cancer for those who didn't sleep well but did score well on physical activity.
D. It's evident that in terms of health more exercise could make up for poor sleep.
14. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 6 mean?
A. interacting
B. increasing
C. preventing
D. causing
15. Where can this passage most probably be taken from?
A. A research findings report
B. A medical examination report
C. A poor sleep study report
D. A physical activity study report

Today I took part in an English singing competition in our school. Most of the singers and audience have been there when I arrived at the hall. See the large audience, I started to feel little nervous. After some times, it was your turn to sing. When the host read my name out, the audience burst into a great cheer, and my heart began to beat really fastly. The song I sing was Country Road, that is a very famous piece of American country music. I had practiced for it many times, and I didn’t think I had done a very good job. Anyway, I was still very excited because participating was the most important thing.

Travel does have some dangers, but there is a kindness that coats every corner of the world.
In almost every city, we have found kind-hearted people that have either opened their hearts or their homes. My friend Agelika is one of those people.
When I was a teenager, I got lost in a foreign country. I was inBerlin,Germanys, on my month-long overseas study tour inEurope. My team and I had one night to spend there. However, while most of my teammates decided to stay indoors and relax, I did not want to pass up the chance to exploreBerlin.
I visited many major attractions around the city that night. When exhaustion set in(开始), I checked the time on my watch. I was surprised to sec that it was two o'clock in the morning!
Quickly, I walked to a subway station. As I got a subway ticket back to the hotel, I realized that it was my father's birthday. This would be the first birthday I couldn't celebrate with him because he had passed away a few months earlier. Before I could begin reminiscing about(追忆)my father, I heard train wheels screeching(发出刺耳声)to a stop.
I dashed onto the train. At first, I was thankful to have made it onto the train. But that relief quickly turned to panic when I noticed that the train was headed in the wrong direction!
I looked around the nearly empty carriage and saw a girl about my age sitting quietly by the window and then I approached her.
"Hi, do you speak English? I'm lost. Can you help me?" I asked, showing my ticket to her.
It was good luck that the girl understood my problem. She tried to tell me how to return to where I had first gotten on the train. But my anxious mind couldn't follow her instructions.
Without thinking, I blurted out(脱口说出), "Can you come with me?"
