A scientist believes he has discovered a direct link between people's favourite sleeping position and their personality. Professor Chris Idzikowski has described six different positions and what each one says about a person’s character. The professor, who did the research for a hotel group, said, “We are all aware of our body language when we are awake but this is the first time we have been able to see what our position says about us when we are asleep.” At the moment, Professor Idzikowski is trying to sleep in a yoga position that involves crossing your legs around your neck. He says there is no perfect position for sleeping.
1. THE STARFISH
“Starfish” sleep flat on their back with their arms raised. They are good listeners who make friends easily but do not like to be the centre of the attention.
2. THE YEARNER
“Yearners” sleep on their side with their arms raised. They are doubtful and have a very sensible approach to life.
3. THE FOETUS
The most popular position, particularly among women. They sleep curled（蜷缩）up on their side, holding on to the pillow. They appear to be tough but are actually sensitive and shy.
4. THE FREEFALLER
Only 6.5% of people prefer to sleep on their front, making this the least popular sleeping position. “Freefallers” seem very confident, although this hides a nervous personality.
5. THE LOG
The “log” position is similar to the “yearner” but with arms by the sides. “Logs” are easy-going and sociable, but can be seen as too gullible, easily to be tricked.
6. THE SOLDIER
“Soldiers”, who sleep on their back with their arms by their sides, are quiet and reserved. They set high standards for themselves and do not like noisy social situations.
1. What can we infer from Paragraph 1?
A. The yoga sleeping position is the best one.
B. People don't know their body language when awake.
C. People's sleeping position determines their personality.
D. Professor Idzikowski shows great interest in sleeping positions.
2. Which of the following sayings about the sleeping position is correct?
A. “Foetus” seem to be strong but sensitive.
B. “Yearners” sleep on their back with their arms raised.
C. “Starfish” like to be the focus of the attention.
D. “Soldiers” sleep on their side with their arms by their sides.
3. What does the underlined word gullible mean in Paragraph 6?
A. Easily annoyed. B. Easily approached....
C. Easily cheated. D. Easily satisfied.

The days of glancing at a map or the screen of your smart phone when you’re lost will soon be over, thanks to new shoes that tell you which way to turn to. The shoes use a Bluetooth link to communicate with your mobile’s mapping system. The mobile works out which route you should be following and the shoes then produce a slight shaking in either foot telling you when and where to change direction.
The shoes will also count the number of steps you’ve taken and the calories you’ve burned, and they’ll even buzz to warn you you’ve left your phone behind, or to tell you when you’re travelling past an interesting landmark.
“They are as easy to use as a tap on the shoulder,” said Krispian Lawrence, 30, who developed the shoes with partner Anirudh Sharma, 28, in Hyderabad, India. “You can even communicate with them using hand gestures and finger snaps because the shoes have sensors that can pick up movement and sound.”
The Lechal shoes go on sale worldwide in June but Lawrence and Sharma’s company, Ducere Technologies, has already taken more than 3,000 pre-orders. Lawrence believes the shoes will also improve road safety. “If I’m on my bike or motorbike, I don’t want to stare at my phone ---it’s dangerous,” he says. “I’d rather be guided by my footwear.” He believes his invention will prove invaluable for the visually impaired and has promised that every mainstream pair sold by Ducere will subsidize(资助) a cheaper pair for a visually damaged person.
Footnav technology does not impress explorer Sir Ranulph Fiennes, however. “What’s wrong with a good old-fashioned map?” said the 70-year-old when told of the shoes. “If you rely too heavily on technology, you’re heading for trouble. Too many people have forgotten the basics: how to read a map and a compass.”
4. According to the passage, which of the following can smart shoes NOT do?
A. Guiding your road.
B. Warning of the loss of your wallet.
C. Counting your steps and calories.
D. Reminding you of landmarks.
5. Smart shoes can be used as a map mainly because .
A. they can talk to people
B. they can produce a slight shaking
C. they are guided by a remote control
D. they are linked to mobiles’ mapping system
6. What’s the possible meaning of the underlined word “impaired”?
A. Discouraged. B. Disabled.
C. Disappointed. D. Disliked.
7. What is Sir Ranulph’s attitude towards this invention?
A. Positive B. Negative.
C. Disturbing. D. Confused.

Dear Mr. Shyamalan,
According to the box office, congratulations are in order. It seems your new movie, Split, is doing gangbusters. That means millions of people all over the world have seen or will soon see your story about a man who is suffering from Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID).
As much as I'm rooting for you as an artist, Mr. Shyamalan, personally, I think you climbed to success on the overburdened backs of the mentally ill.
As a person who suffers from multiple(多面的)personalities, as well as a psychologist with professional knowledge and skills in the subject, I feel it is my duty to school you in a few facts: People who suffer from DID are not, generally speaking, scary or cheating. We are normal people who silently suffer from a painful condition in which our sense of who we are feels divided into broken parts. Our condition is often caused by a history of severe and repeated child abuse(虐待). In truth, we are victims(受害者) of unimaginable violence.
With the release of your movie, you have become my bully(恃强凌弱者). I am personally harmed by the absurd fixed image you use in Split. Your description of Kevin Crumb as one gender confused, cross-dressing multiple with a strong liking for violence has the same effect as shouting across the playground, “People with DID are dangerous nut jobs!”
I have lived for years with the shame created by movies such as yours. Despite being a successful doctor who runs a charity for adult survivors of child abuse, I live with constant anxiety that people will learn of my diagnosis(诊断). For no matter how long I’ve known someone or how highly they think of me, once they know I'm a multiple, the reaction is imaginable.
In the future, I’d appreciate it if you stopped using our pain and suffering as materials for your entertainment.
Michelle Stevens
8. What does the author think of Shyamalan’s success?
A. He was very fortunate． B. He deserved it.
C. His efforts were worthwhile． D. He got it in an immoral way．
9. What’s the probable cause of DID?
A. Poor living conditions. B. Extreme anxiety from life.
C. Tense relations among people. D. Being badly treated in childhood.
10. Who is Kevin Crumb according to the text?
A. A friend of Mr. Shyamalan’s.
B. A character in Split.
C. A patient of Michelle Stevens’s.
D. A psychologist with multiple personalities.
11. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To give the movie Split a review.
B. To show respect for people with DID.
C. To state that the movie Split hurt people with DID.
D. To argue that people with DID can make a difference....

A “smart drug” taken by students to improve their performance really does work, scientists have found. The drug modafinil is currently used to treat sleep disorder, but it is widely used off-label by students to help them revise for exams or focus on long essays.
Until now, there has been a lack of clear evidence over whether it can actually help concentration and alertness. But a new analysis of the research showed it does improve planning and decision making, flexibility, learning and memory, and even creativity. The findings raise serious ethical(道德的) questions about whether modafinil should be “classified, tolerated or condemned”, scientists said. Professor Guy Goodwin, President of the European College said: “It’s the first real example of a ‘smart drug’, which can really help, for example, with exam preparation.” Previous ethical discussions around smart drugs assumed(假定) major effects of the drugs before it was clear that there were any, he added. He continued “If correct, the latest news means the ethical debate(争论) is real: how should we classify, tolerate or condemn a drug that improves human performance?”
A fifth of university students across the country claim to have taken smart drugs, according to surveys by student newspaper The Tab . And the use of modafinil is most widespread at Oxford University, where a quarter of students have reported to have used it. Over the years, universities have discussed how best to respond to the use of smart drugs, and some have suggested Olympic-style doping tests for students sitting exams.
Professor Goodwin said there should be a society-wide debate on how modafinil should be permitted officially and regulated(管理), as well as what universities should do about its use. He said: “Regulation has been and remains uncertain. We cannot know either if demand for modafinil in the same societies will actually be significant, whether society will be more accepting and how regulation will then be made.”
12. Who are likely to turn to the “smart drug” modafinil ?
A. Children who lack strength.
B. Patients who have a heart disease.
C. Old people who have poor sight.
D. Students who have poor memory.
13. Why does the writer refer to the students of Oxford University?
A. To show smart drugs enjoy popularity among college students.
B. To prove Oxford University students suffer from a heavy load.
C. To tell us smarts drugs use have spread to England.
D. To explain why Oxford University students are clever.
14. What does Professor Goodwin think of “smart drug” modafinil?
A. Our society should accept the use of modafinil.
B. Regulation on modafinil remains to be discussed.
C. Modafinil used as a “smart drug” should be stopped.
D. Regulation on modafinil being used as a “smart drug” is necessary.
15. What is the topic of passage?
A. “Smart drugs” have side effects.
B. A “Smart drug” raises ethical questions.
C. Students can’t go without “smart drugs”....
D. A more effective “smart drags” should be developed.

How to Create Better Phone Habits
If you find yourself constantly checking your cell phone, you may have a problem with
overuse of cell phone. ____16____ Here are four tips on how to create better phone habits.
1. Put your phone away an hour before you go to sleep. Staring at a screen right before
you try to go to sleep is going to make it more difficult to fall asleep. ____17____ Don’t try to
sleep with it right next to your head because you will spend more time focused on who might
be texting you than sleeping.
2. Carry your phone in your bag or pocket. When you take your phone with you, don’t
carry it in your hand. ____18____This is especially important when you drive. Make sure your
phone is hidden away when you drive so you are not tempted to look at it and text.
3. ____19____ Think of the best times of the day for you to not be on your phone texting
and make it a “no phone time”. Turn your phone completely off and put it away somewhere
where you can’t get to it for a few hours. Forcing yourself to do this daily will help train your
brain to not get anxious when you are not on your phone.
4. Pretend like your cell phone is a home phone. ____20____ Try pretending like your cell
phone is a landline phone. Place it in one spot in your house and always leave it there and
only use it there, instead of taking it with you everywhere you go.
A. An hour before you go to sleep, text anyone you are talking to that you are going to sleep.
B. Cell phones are an annoying invention.
C. Have set times where you are away from your phone.
D. Turn off your cell phone before you leave your home....
E. Probably one of the major reasons you are addicted to （上瘾）texting is because you can carry your phone with you anywhere.
F. It can lead to reduced quality of personal relationships and lack of productivity in daily life.
G. Put your phone somewhere where you can’t see it.

Yang Yongde—a star student
In this year’s college entrance examination of Shandong, Yang Yongde, a senior 3 student from our school, got a high mark and was admitted to Hong Kong Chinese University, with a scholarship of HK 500,000.
But three years ago when Yang, aged 16, just began his senior 1 school life, his father was killed in a traffic accident. His mother became seriously ill in bed because of his father’s death, losing the basic ability to support herself.
Thus Yang had to take the burden of supporting the family and nursing his ill mother. He overcame difficulty after difficulty that he faced. Meanwhile he studied even harder and did pretty well in all his subjects. Moreover, he is always ready to help others.
Yang Yongde has set us a shining example both in daily life and study, from whom we should learn.
