Do you feel a little sleepy after lunch? Well, that’s normal. Your body naturally slows down then. What should you do about it? Don’t reach for a coffee! Instead, take a nap.
There are many benefits (好处) of a daily nap. First of all, you are more efficient (有效率) after napping. You remember things better and make fewer mistakes. Also, you can learn things more easily after taking a nap. A 20-minute nap can reduce information overload. It can also reduce stress. Finally, a nap may increase your self-confidence and make you more alert (灵活). It may even cheer you up.
But, there are some simple rules you should follow about taking a nap. First, take a nap in the middle of the day, about eight hours after you wake up. Otherwise, you may disturb your sleep-wake pattern. Next, a 20-minute nap is best. If you sleep longer, you may fall into a deep sleep. After waking from a deep sleep, you will feel worse. Also, you should set an alarm clock. That way, you can fully relax during your nap. You won’t have to keep looking at the clock so that you don’t oversleep.
Now, the next time you feel sleepy after lunch, don’t get stressed. Put your head down, close your eyes, and have forty winks.
( )50. What is a good rule for taking a nap?
A. Use an alarm clock. B. Nap eight hours after waking up.
C. Sleep for about half an hour. D. All of the above
( )51. According to the passage, what is NOT a benefit of napping?
A. It makes you stronger B. It makes you feel happier
C. It gives you more self-confidence D. It improves your memory
( )52. Which may happen if an alarm clock is not used?
A. You may relax more.
B. You may feel too nervous to relax.
C. You may forget an important meeting.
D. You may not reduce your napping time.
( )53. In the last paragraph, “have forty winks” can be replaced by “_____”.
A. do eye-protection exercises
B. close your eyes for forty times
C. have a short sleep during the daytime
D. pretend to have a quick nap after lunch
(C)
Do you think animals can predict (预报) the weather or other natural events? Farmers living in the countryside think so. For hundreds of years, they have observed animals. They think animals’ behavior (行为) can be connected to future weather conditions or events. For example, if swans fly into the wind, a hurricane is coming. Or, if cows lie down, a rainstorm is coming. There are many traditional stories connecting animals and natural events. Many people think that these stories are just folklore, traditional stories and beliefs without scientific evidence. Scientists, however, are beginning to take another look at some of these ideas.
Kiyoshi Shimamura is a Japanese earthquake researcher. He noticed an increase in dog bites a short time before earthquakes hit. Then, he did an investigation (调查) of twelve public health centers in Kobe, Japan. These health centers treated people after the 1995 earthquake. He noticed some interesting information about the month before the big earthquake. Treatment for animal bites had increased. In fact, aggressive (冒犯的；侵略的) behavior in dogs, such as biting and barking loudly, jumped (猛增) 60 percent!
People noticed other changes in animal behavior before the earthquake as well. For example, fish began swimming together in large groups, only in the middle of the water and not near the edges. Also, birds flew away from their nests for many days, leaving their eggs unprotected. The animal behavior suggests that animals may be able to predict natural events better than people.
( )54. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. What animals do during earthquakes
B. Many earthquakes of Japan
C. Effect of natural events on animals’ actions
D. Folklore and other stories about animals
( )55. How do dogs begin to behave just before an earthquake?
A. They lie down in grass. B. They stay together in large groups.
C. They leave their homes. D. They hurt people.
( )56. What other animals behave strangely before an earthquake?
A. Pigs B. Birds C. Cows D. All of the above
( )57. What did Kiyoshi Shimamura look at during his investigation?
A. Animal clinics treating dogs
B. The number of patients with bites
C. The number of earthquakes a year
D. Places dogs go during earthquakes
(D)

友情提醒：将本题的答案写在第II卷上。
阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容完成相关任务。
You may not realize it, but you are doing much more than just studying, when you are at school. School is also the place where you learn to get along well with people. But this is not always easy. (1) what ,you .do, if. can, like, of ,your, you, classmates, don’t, one?
If you discover that you have problems getting along with your classmates or friends, the most important thing is to learn to tolerate（宽容）. Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect（尊重）the differences in others. We can not change the way that other people do, so it is important to learn to live happily with them.
Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other. Getting to know someone may help you understand why they do things differently. Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad. Tolerance teaches us to keep an even temper and open mind .
(2) You need to remember an old saying, “Treat others how to want to be treated”. You would like to be treated kindly by your classmates, so it is important to treat them kindly too. If you tolerate（宽容）something, it does not mean that you have to like it. No one is asking you to change who you are or what you believe in. Tolerance just means that you should respect the differences in others and not try to make them change.
It is important to practice tolerance, because it will make everyone’s lives easier. Learn to accept（接受）people for their different abilities and interests. The world is very different, and practicing tolerance in you own school and city can help make a difference.
