三、阅读理解（35分） (共5题；共35分)

12. （3分）Crazy is our new normal. With two teenage boys and three little boys, our family is restless- to the baseball field, track field (田径场) and piano lessons. Even though we've limited（限制） each boy's activities and try our best to spare some time for the family, it seems that we're always in a hurry.

"Accept it. Roll with it," my husband, Lonny, says, "It's going to be like this for a while."

He is right. It's likely that life will continue to go forward before it slows down. But I remembered the peaceful, quiet days that our family used to enjoy. I missed long walks through the park when we held the boys' little hands. I wished for lazy Saturday afternoons under the tree in our backyard. I wanted to go back a few years, when busyness was the exception and not the rule（惯例）．

One night, after a particularly ful day and evening games, our family gathered on the porch (门廊) for ice cream. Two parents, two teens, and three small boys sat on one old swing and a couple of rocking chairs. We were together, in one place, for a short period of time.

The moon was full. The Mississippi River, flowing past our home, was smooth as glass. I put my own arms around the son who sat on my lap and breathed in deeply his little-boy smell -dirt and sweat. My heart was peaceful and satisfied.

I realized that though crazy is our new normal, happiness is as usual. They may look different from before, but they are still there - even if they're in the form of a single moment on the porch. Maybe I just need the eyes to see.

（1）What does the writer mainly talk about?

D . Life in the countryside is attractive, wonderful, and sweet.

13. （8分）阅读下面短文，从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

Recently a report showed that children in Beijing get less sleep than those in other parts of the country, putting them at a higher risk of physical and mental health problems.

People in Beijing usually sleep 7.6 hours a night, but about 25 per cent of the city population usually doesn't get enough sleep, according to the report by the capital's Health and Family Planning Centre. At least 30 per cent sleep fewer than 6.5 hours a night, the report said. Especially children living in the capital get less sleep than their peers elsewhere because of the large amounts of homework, excessive (过度的) use of mobile phones and poor sleeping patterns. Primary school student Li Li said she went to bed each day around midnight after finishing her homework and playing mobile games for a few hours. "I play online games together with many of my classmates after we finish our studies," the 10-year-old girl said. "It's a way of relaxing after studying all day. My parents also play mobile games after dinner."

Health experts have warned that long-term sleep problems can increase the risk of heart disease, anxiety (焦虑) and depression. According to the American Sleep Association, deep sleep gives the brain time to rest itself from daily activities, and it is important for health.

The report calls on people to take children's sleeping problems seriously: "When necessary, those who suffer from continuous problems should go to the hospital or medical care centre for help."

（1）What is the second paragraph mainly about?

A . How long people should sleep each night.

B . Why children in the capital get less sleep.

C . What parents should do to get kids sleep more.

D . How to control the use of mobile phones.

（2）Why does Li Li play online games with her classmates?

A . Because her parents play mobile phones.

B . Because she thinks it can help with her study.

C . Because it can help her sleep more.

D . Because she thinks it is a way of relaxing.

（3）The underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 refers to "________".

A . the brain

B . time

C . deep sleep

D . daily activity

（4）What's the best title of the passage?

A . Sleeping problems of children in Beijing

B . A research on sleeping patterns

C . The reasons of sleeping problems

D . Suggestions for children with sleeping problems

16. （6分） If you go to a fast food restaurant, you will probably see a lot of teenagers. Today, many teenagers are overweight, and this is because of their bad eating habits. Most teenagers are fond of food with a lot of fat, oil, salt and sugar. People call this kind of food “junk food”.

But bad eating habits go beyond fast food. We find many teenagers eat unhealthily. Some don't have breakfast before they go to school. During the day, some don't have a proper meal for lunch. In a recent survey at one school, scientists found that over two thirds of the student s didn’t follow a healthy diet. They didn't like vegetables, and many of them didn’t like to eat fruits. They preferred to eat food with a lot of salt, sugar, or fat.

Parents today also worry about their children's diet. Some doctors give the following advice:

Teenagers shouldn't eat too much junk food.

Teenagers shouldn't eat food with too much salt. Salt can cause high blood pressure in the future.

Teenagers should eat food without much fat, oil and sugar.

Teenagers need to eat some fruits and vegetables every day. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins（维生素）and have little fat.

Teenagers need to drink more milk. Milk will help their bones grow.

Teenagers need to eat breakfast every day. It is good for their body and mind.
