Do you know why? Ocean water is full of salt— and salt water can hold up more weight than fresh water. See for yourself! You Will Need: ● 3 cups of warm water ● Measuring cup (量杯) ● Wide-mouthed jar ● Salt ● Spoon  ● Raw (生的)potato You Will Do: 1. Pour 1.5 cups of warm water into the jar. 2. Add 1/3 cup of salt. 3. Stir(搅拌) until the salt is completely dissolved. 4. Add another 1.5 cups of water. Pour it slowly over the back of the spoon into the jar so that the two liquids will not mix together.  5. Gently place the potato into the jar. Do not drop ‎ it. What Will Happen: The potato will sink— but only halfway! Why? Salt water is heavier than fresh water, so it will stay on the bottom. The fresh water will remain on top. The potato is heavier than the fresh water, but it is lighter than the salt water. That is why the potato will sink halfway down.‎ ‎1.In the experiment, what should you do right after you pour the water over the spoon?‎ A．Add the salt to the water.                 B．Stir the salt into the water.‎ C．Place the potato in the jar.                 D．Pour warm water into thejar.‎ ‎2.In Step 4 of the experiment, why do you pour the water over the spoon “slowly”?‎ A．It is easier to see what you are doing. B．It pushes the fresh water to the bottom.‎ C．It will keep the water from coming out. D．It will keep the liquids from mixing together.‎ ‎3.In which step of the experiment do you add the salt?‎ A．Step 1            B．Step 2            C．Step 3            D．Step 4‎ ‎ B Can dogs and cats get along well in the same home? People who are thinking about getting a dog as a friend for their cat are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found that if the cat is taken back home before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swimmingly. In two-thirds of the homes cats and dogs have a good relationship.‎ ‎  However, it wasn’t all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression(侵略，好斗) and fighting were found in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body languages are just different. For example, when a cat turns its head away it means aggression, while a dog doing the same means submission(顺从).‎ ‎   In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers found a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each other’s language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk “Dog”, and dogs can learn how to talk “Cat”.‎ ‎  What’s interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to become smarter. They can learn to read each other’s body languages, suggesting that the two may have more in common than was expected. Once familiar with each other’s body language, cats and dogs can play together, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa.‎ ‎   The importance of this research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets — to people who don’t get along well, including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even countries. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.‎ ‎4.The underlined word swimmingly in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ________.‎ A. early      B.mostly      C.quickly        D. smoothly ‎5.Some cats and dogs may fight when ________.‎ A. they are cold to each other              B. they look away from each other C. they misunderstand each other’s body languages D. they are introduced at an early age ‎6.It is suggested in Paragraph 4 that cats and dogs ________.‎ A. have common interests      B. are less different than thought C. have a common body language   D. are not so smart as expected ‎7. What can we human beings learn from cats and dogs?‎ A. We should learn to get along well with others B. We should know more about animals.‎ C. We should live in peace with animals. D. We should learn more body languages.‎ C Jack Ma, whose Chinese name is Ma Yun, became the richest man in China, when the company he founded floated on the stock market last year with a value of around ￡140 billion. Here are some interesting stories about him. 1. "Beer" was the first word that Jack Ma searched for on the Internet In 1995 Ma made his first trip to the US and used the Internet for the first time.

Many people feel this way after lunch. They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness. Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat. However, the real reason ‎ lies inside their bodies. At that time – about eight hours after you wake up – your body temperature goes down. This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day. The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern. They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later. In many parts of the world, people take naps in the middle of the day. This is especially true in warmer climates where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any climate. A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general. In countries where naps are traditional, people often suffer less from problem such as heart disease. Many working people, unfortunately, have no time to take naps. Though doctors may advise taking naps, employers do not allow it! If you do have the chance, however, here are a few tips about making the most of your nap. Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward. This can also happen if you sleep for too long. If you do not have enough time, try a short nap – even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful.‎ ‎12.Why do people feel sleepy in the early afternoon according to the text？‎ A．They eat too much for lunch.‎ B．They sleep too little at night.‎ C．Their body temperature becomes lower.‎ D．The weather becomes a lot warmer.‎ ‎13.If you get up at 6:30 am, what is the best time for you to take a nap？‎ A．About 12:30 pm.‎ B．About 1:30 pm.‎ C．About 2:30 pm.‎ D．About 3:30 pm.‎ ‎14.Why do employers not allow workers to take naps？‎ A．taking naps is no good for health.‎ B．taking naps may lead to heart attack.‎ C．taking naps may lead to low working efficiency.‎ D．taking naps takes up the working time and reduces production.‎ ‎15.What would be the best title for the text？‎ A．Just for a Rest B．All for a Nap C．A Special Sleep Pattern.‎ D．Taking Naps in Warmer Climate.‎ 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ How to Survive High School High school can be a terrible phase if you get it all wrong.
