Walter Peak High Country Farm, on the western shores of Lake Wakatipu is famous in  history. Its sheltered bays were used as camping sites by Maori travelling to the Mararoa and Oreti Rivers on Moa hunting and gathering expeditions.

Some years ago on a hot summer day in south Florida a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house. In a hurry to dive into the cool water, he ran out of the back door, leaving behind shoes, socks, and shirt as he went.

He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, a crocodile was swimming toward him. His mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two. In great fear, she ran toward the water, shouting to her son as loudly as she could. Hearing her voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his mother．It was too late. Just as he reached her, the crocodile reached him. From the shore, the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the crocodile snatched his legs. That began an incredible tug-of-war between the two. The crocodile was much stronger than the mother, but the mother was much too passionate to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard their screams, raced from his truck, took aim and shot the crocodile.

Remarkably, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were extremely scarred by the attack of the animal. And, on his arms, were deep scratches where his mother’s finger nails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved.

The newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy, asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted his legs. And then, with obvious pride, he said to the reporter, “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my Mom wouldn’t let go.”

Never judge another person’s scars, because you don’t know how they were made.

4. By saying “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too” in paragraph 4, the boy really wants to show ______.

A. how deep the scars made by the crocodile were

B. what a brave and courageous boy he was

C. how many scars and scratches he had

D. how great and beloved his mother was

5. Hearing Mother’s shouts, the boy ______.

A. remained in the middle at a loss

B. didn’t stop swimming forwards

C. swam back towards the shore

D. was ready to fight the crocodile

6. Which of the following statements is true according to the text?

A. A crocodile attacked him when the boy and his mother were swimming.

B. The crocodile bit the arms of the boy when it reached him.

C. There is always an interesting story behind every scar.

D. It was the farmer who shot the crocodile.

7. Which of the following will be the best title for the text?

A. Scars of Love

B. Women Hold up Half the Sky

C. A Terrible Experience

D. Don’t Judge by Appearances

C

The bad health effects of sleep loss during the week can’t be repaid by longer weekend sleep, according to a new study.

Researchers have long known that sleep deprivation (剥夺) can cause weight gain and increase other health risks. But for those who force themselves out of bed every weekday after too few hours of shut eye, they hope turning off the alarm on Saturday and Sunday will repay the weekly sleep debt and remove any ill effects.

The research, published in Current Biology, crushes those hopes. Despite complete freedom to sleep during a weekend recovery period, people in a sleep lab who were limited to five hours of sleep on weekdays gained nearly three pounds over two weeks and experienced disorders that would increase their risk for diabetes (糖尿病) over the long term. While weekend recovery sleep had some benefits after a single week of sleep loss, those gains were wiped out when people fell right back into their same sleep deprived schedule the next Monday.

“If there are benefits of catch-up sleep they’re gone when you go back to your daily schedule. It’s very short lived”, said Kenneth Wright, director of the sleep and chronobiology lab at the University of Colorado at Boulder. “These health effects are long term. It’s kind of like smoking once was-people would smoke and wouldn’t see an immediate effect on their health, but people will say now that smoking is not a healthy lifestyle choice. I think that sleep is in the early stage of where smoking used to be.”

Wright said that the study suggests people should put sleep in the first place cutting out the “sleep stealers” such as watching television shows or spending time on their phones. Even when people don’t have a choice about losing sleep because of child-care responsibilities or job schedules, they should think about getting sleep in the same way they would get a healthy diet or exercise.

8. What does the underlined word “crushes” mean?

A. Deepens. B. Ensures. C. Ruins. D. Causes.

9. What will Kenneth Wright agree with?

A. Smoking is more harmful than sleep loss.

B. Weekend recovery sleep has many benefits.

C. Smoking and sleep loss have the same bad effects.

D. It takes long for people to see the effects of sleep loss.

10. What does Kenneth Wright advise people to do?

A. Take regular exercise every day. B. Reduce the screen time before sleep.

C. Watch some TV shows before bedtime. D. Sleep as long as possible during weekdays.

11. What is the main purpose of this passage?

A. To introduce a new study. B. To show some unknown facts.

C. To promote a healthy lifestyle. D. To share some unhappy experiences.

D

New App Helps People Remember Faces

Large gatherings such as weddings and conferences can be socially overwhelming. Pressure to learn people’s names only adds to the stress. A new facial-recognition app could come to the rescue, but privacy experts recommend proceeding with caution.

The app, called SocialRecall, connects names with faces via smartphone cameras and facial recognition, potentially avoiding the need for formal introductions. “It breaks down these social barriers we all have when meeting somebody,” says Barry Sandrew, who created the app and tested it at an event attended by about 1,000 people.

After receiving an invitation to download SocialRecall from an event organizer, the user is asked to take two selfies and sign in via social media. At the event, the app is active within a previously defined geographical area. When a user points his or her phone camera at an attendee’s face, the app identifies the individual, displays the person’s name, and links to his or her social media profile. To protect privacy, it recognizes only those who have agreed to participate. And the app's creators say it automatically deletes users’ data after an event.

Ann Cavoukian, a privacy expert who runs the Privacy by Design Center of Excellence praises the app’s creators for these protective measures. She cautions, however, that when people choose to share their personal information with the app, they should know that “there may be unintended consequences down the road with that information being used in another context that might come back to bite you.”

The start-up has also developed a version of the app for individuals who suffer from prosopagnosia, or “face blindness,” a condition that prevents people from recognizing individuals they have met. To use this app, a person first acquires an image of someone’s face, from either the smartphone’s camera or a photograph, and then tags it with a name. When the camera spots that same face in real life, the previously entered information is displayed. The collected data are stored only on a user’s phone, according to the team behind the app.

12. SocialRecall is used to ________.

A. take photos B. identify people

C. organize events D. make friends

13. Paragraph 3 is mainly about ________.

A. how the app works

B. how the app was created

C. what makes the app popular

D. what people can do with the app

14. SocialRecall helps people with prosopagnosia by ________.

A. giving names to the photos kept in their smartphones

B. collecting information previously entered in the phone

C. providing the information of a person when they first meet

D. showing the person’s information when it spots a stored face

15. What can we learn about SocialRecall from the passage?

A. It may put people’s privacy at risk.

B It has caused unintended consequences.

C It can prevent some communication disorders.

D. It is praised by users for its protective measures.

How Can I Fight Laziness?

Lazy people will never amount to anything in life. However, laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind.

____16____. Many people lack sleep constantly, since they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work. These people have little motivation once they arrive home. Laziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency to put off things. By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest, you can fight laziness throughout the day.

Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active. Some people treat their lives as if they were pushed from task to task. Others take a more proactive approach, viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone. ____17____

Some people fight laziness by removing the temptations that surround them. A television in the living room may provide entertainment, but watching too much TV often contributes to laziness. ____18____Complete a few tasks and reward yourself with what you enjoy, such as a good dinner or a film.

Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home. Couples and children may all have different energy levels, but laziness can be spread if not dealt with immediately. ____19____ Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal. Others in the home may eventually follow your example and perform their own task. It is difficult to practice laziness when you are surrounded by motivated people.

____20____ Enough exercise and a balanced diet can help you to develop a healthy lifestyle, thus enabling you to have more energy and help lift your spirits.

A. To fight family laziness, set an example.

B. Knowing how to fight laziness is important.

C. One way to fight laziness is to get enough sleep.

D. Finally, taking exercise regularly can help you fight laziness.

E. With strong determination, you will be able to achieve your goal.

F. Laziness sets in when you no longer feel in charge of your own life.

G. Create a reward system for yourself, just as parents do for a child.

A Happy Day at School

It was a most trying period. Things at home were getting from bad to worse. Dad's alcoholism had become worse, especially after he ran out of money. Mum was always losing temper as she could not make ends meet with her poor income as a factory operator. I had been an above-average student, but now I was doing poorly in school.

I dreaded coming home after school. Dad would come home late and shout abuse at Mum. When he fell asleep I would often hear Mum's sobs. I could do nothing to ease the situation at home and this realization caused me a great deal of suffering and frustration.

It was at this point that Mrs. Justin entered my life. A soft-spoken woman in her late forties, she was my class teacher. She was quick to notice the change that had come over me. One day, during break, I was standing alone in one corner of the canteen when Mrs. Justin spotted me. She gestured for me to follow her. We headed for the library, where she asked me to take a seat next to her. I sat with my head bent.

“Helen”, she called. I lifted my head and looked at her. I saw the warmth, and the love in her lovely eyes. Tears welled up in my eyes and I tried my best to hold them back. However, I could not. She held my hands and waited. When I had finished, she asked me to tell her my problem. I told her the whole story and she listened patiently.

At the end of my story, she gave me a lesson on life. As I heard her talk, my admiration for this woman grew. My perception changed. Before this meeting, I had felt I was nobody. However, as the meeting progressed, I felt different. I knew Mrs. Justin cared for me.

注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；

2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。

After that day, Mrs. Justin always discussed my work at school.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

As I looked at her, I felt a sudden sweep of happiness.
